Polyethylene glycol (PEG) conjugation, i.e. PEGylation, is a successful strategy to improve the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of biopharmaceuticals. In the past few decades, PEGylation technology has developed tremendously, and >15 PEGylated therapeutics have been brought to market, with more in development. However, the widely accepted assumption that PEG would have no antigenicity or immunogenicity is increasingly challenged with popularization of PEGylation technique. Although PEGylation indeed reduces the immunogenicities of the modified molecules, and even appears to completely eliminate their immunogenicities, yet emerging clinical evidence of anti-PEG antibodies (including both pre-existing and PEGylated therapeutics-treatment induced anti-PEG antibodies) have been attracted more and more attention. Anti-PEG antibodies were detected in not only patients treated with PEGylated therapeutics but also PEGylated drugs treatment-naïve individuals with a prevalence from <1% to 72%. In patients, the existing anti-PEG antibodies may attenuate therapeutic efficacy of PEGylated drugs and increase adverse effects. Although there is no golden standard avenue, several types of methods, including passive hemagglutination, Western Blot, enzyme linked immunosorbent assay, flow cytometry, Meso Scale Discovery technology, Acoustic Membrane Microparticle assay, and surface plasmon resonace technique, were established and used to screen, confirm and quantitatively detect anti-PEG antibodies. Herein, we focused on reviewing the prevalence of anti-PEG antibodies in healthy and PEGylated therapeutics-treated patients, and highlighting the detection methods for pre-screening and quantitative detection of anti-PEG antibodies.
