Embodiment 1

[1172] Selection of IGF-1R-specific Fab from phage library

[1173] Recombinant human IGF-1R ectodomain was used to screen for cells containing 3.5x10 10 A human native phagemid Fab library of unique clones (Hoet, R.M., et al. Nat Biotechnol. 23(3):344-8 (2005), ("Hoet et al.") is incorporated by reference in its entirety in this article). Biotinylated IGF1R-his and IGF1R-Fc proteins were used after two different panning arms. Proteins are captured on streptavidin-coated magnetic beads and incubated with phage. For IGF1R-Fc, biotinylated anti-Fc antibodies were captured on magnetic beads, which then captured the Fc fusion protein. Selections were made as described by Hoet et al. After 3 rounds of panning, the 479 bp gene III remnant was removed by MluI digestion, and the vector was religated for soluble Fab expression in TG1 cells. ELISA analysis of 920 clones with biotinylated IGF1R-His arms yielded 593 positive clones containing 33 unique sequences. ELISA analysis of 9...

[1175] Binding activity of Fab to IGF-1R expressed on tumor cells

[1176] The ability of Fabs to bind wild-type IGF-IR can be determined by flow cytometry using the MCF-7 tumor cell line.

[1177] MCF-7 cells (human breast cancer cells from NCI) were split 24 hours before setting up the assay to obtain a 70% confluent monolayer. The MCF-7 cell line is routinely maintained for less than 20 passages. Cells were dissociated with Cell Dissociation Buffer (Gibco Cat# 13151-014), counted, washed and adjusted to 1x10 6 cells / ml, then 1 ml of cells was added to each tube (12x75mm tube Falcon cat# 352054). Cells were pelleted by centrifugation at 1200 rpm for 5 minutes and the supernatant was removed, then 100 μl of diluted antibody was added to the cell pellet. The starting concentration of purified Fab tested can be 210 or 60 μg / ml diluted 1 :3 in FRCS buffer up to 0.001 μg / ml. The FACS buffer used throughout the assay was PBS (Ca++ / Mg++ free) with 1% BSA (Sigma Cat# A-7906) and...

[1182] Inhibition of ligand binding to IGF-1R by Fab

[1183] The ability of Fabs to block the binding of IGF-1 and IGF-2 ligands to IGF-1R can be tested by radioimmunoassay (RIA) assay.

[1184] Ligand Blocking Assay (RIA). Recombinant human IGF-1 (Cat# 291-G1), IGF-2 (Cat# 292-G2), insulin (Cat# Custom02) and human insulin receptor (Cat# 1544-1R) were purchased from R&D Systems, Inc., Minneapolis , MN. Insulin (Arg-Insulin, Cat#01-207) was purchased from Upstate Cell Signaling Solutions (Lake Placid, NY (now part of Millipore, Concord, MA (USA)). 125 I-rhIGF-1 (Cat# IM 172), 125 I-rhIGF-2 (Cat# IM238) and 125 I-rhInsulin (Cat# IM166) was purchased from Amersham Biosciences (Piscataway, NJ). AffiPure goat anti-human IgG, Fcγ fragment specific antibody (Cat # 109-005-098, Jackson IrnmunoResearch, West Grove, PA) was used to capture IGF-1R-Fc. Goat anti-mouse IgG HRP (Cat# 1030-05, Southern Biotech Birmingham, AL) was used as detection antibody.

Abstract

The invention relates to methods of treatment using combination therapy wherein a variety of therapeutically useful compounds may be combined with antibodies which bind to insulin-like growth factor receptor-1 (IGF-1R). Specific human and murine monoclonal antibodies which inhibit iGF-1R-mediated pro-survival and tumor proliferation pathways, and variants, fragments, and derivatives thereof are provided. Also provided are specific human and murine monoclonal antibodies which block the ability of the ligands, insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF-I) and insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF-2) to bind to IGF-1R, as well as fragments, variants and derivatives of such antibodies. The invention also includes polynucleotides encoding the above antibodies or fragments, variants or derivatives thereof, as well as vectors and host cells comprising such polynucleotides. The invention particularly includes methods of treating cancer using combination therapies with IGF-1R antibodies.

Description

Background technique [0001] Combination therapeutic compounds (such as, for example, biologics and small molecules) have become an increasingly attractive approach in cancer treatment. See for example: [0002] Bianco, R., et al., "Combination of biological therapies in non-small cell lung cancer," Ann Oncol., 17, Suppl 2: ii52-54 (2006); [0003] Rodriguez, J., et al., "Combining chemotherapy and targeted therapies in metastatic colorectal cancer," World J Gastroenterol., 13(44):5867-76 (2007); [0004] Gligorov, J., et al., "Novel therapeutic strategies combining antihormonal and biologically targeted therapies in breast cancer: focus on clinical trials and perspectives," Crit Rev Oncol Hematol., 64(2): 115-28 (2007); [0005] Bracci, L., et al., "IFN-alpha and novel strategies of combination therapy for cancer," Ann NY Acad Sci., 1112:256-268 (2007); [0006] Ho, C., et al., "Dual inhibition: combining epidermal growth factor-targeted therapies in non-small-cell lung can...
