Embodiment 1

[0114] Anti-TGF beta single chain Fv (scFv) can be prepared according to the following non-limiting example disclosed in Example 1 of US Patent No. 7,723,486. Mutagenesis and / or combinatorial techniques can be used to increase the neutralizing potency for TGFβ1, TGFβ2 and / or TGFβ3. scFv with increased potency against TGFβ1, TGFβ2 and / or TGFβ3 can be generated by selecting and screening phage antibody libraries as described in Example 1 of US Patent No. 7,723,486. The scFv generated in that Example was compared to 1D11.16 disclosed in US Patent No. 7,723,486 in a MLEC proliferation assay.

[0115] In Example 1 of US Patent No. 7,723,486, a specific germline was found to be highly representative in the population of high potency TGFβ neutralizing scFvs. These are DP-10 / 1-69 and DP-88 / 1-e for the heavy chain (both members of the VH1 germline family), and DPK22 / A27 for the light chain (V κ 3 family). These germlines appear to provide a structural framework particularly suited f...

Embodiment 2A

[0119] The neutralizing potency of anti-TGF[beta] antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof can be determined using the TGF[beta]-dependent MLCE proliferation assay disclosed in Example 4 of US Patent No. 7,723,486. The MLEC proliferation assay is based on the assay described by Danielpour et al., J. Cell. Physiol., 138:79-86 (1989). This assay works on the principle that TGFβ1, TGFβ2 or TGFβ3 added to mink lung epithelial cells inhibit serum-induced cell proliferation. Antibodies were tested for neutralization of TGFβ1, TGFβ2 or TGFβ3, which resulted in restoration of cell proliferation. by ingesting [ 3 H]-thymidine to measure proliferation. Antibody potency was defined as neutralizing a single concentration of TGFβ1, TGFβ2 or TGFβ3 to a level of 50% (IC 50 ) antibody concentration (in nM).

[0120] MLEC Proliferation Assay Protocol: The MLCE cell line (Cat. #CCL-64) was obtained from the American Type Culture Collection. Cells were grown in minimal essential medi...

Embodiment 2B

[0129] Additionally, use The 3000 (GE Healthcare) instrument measures the TGFβ isoform binding affinity of the GC1008 antibody. TGFβ1 and TGFβ2 made in-house were diluted to ~1 μg / mL in 10 mM acetic acid, pH 4.5, while TGFβ3 (R&D Systems) was diluted to ~2 μg / mL in 10 mM acetic acid, pH 4.0. Flow cells 2, 3 and 4 of the CM5 sensor chip were covalently immobilized with 50 to 100 RU of TGFβ1, TGFβ2 and TGFβ3, respectively, using standard amine coupling kits from GE Healthcare. Flow cell 1 was used as a control surface. For kinetic binding assays, GC1008 was serially diluted 1:3 from 33.3 nM to 1.2 nM in HBS-EP buffer and injected into all four flow cells in triplicate for 5 min, then Dissociate in buffer at a flow rate of 30 μL / min for 5 min. The surface was regenerated with two 30 sec injections of 40 mM HCI at 75 μL / min. Sensorgrams were fitted using a 1 : 1 binding model after subtracting buffer versus control flow cell refractive index variations with the BIA Evaluation...

Abstract

Antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof are engineered to bind Transforming Growth Factor-[beta] (TGF[beta]). TGF[beta]-isoform selective antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof may selectively bind human TGF[beta]1, compared to human TGF[beta]2 and human TGF[beta]3, or may selectively bind human TGF[beta]3, compared to human TGF[beta]1 and human TGF[beta]2. The design of the antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof is facilitated by a co-crystal structure of a recombinant Fab fragment of GC1008 bound to TGF[beta]2 and by another co-crystal structure of the scFv version of GC1008 bound to TGF[beta]1.

Description

[0001] sequence listing [0002] This application contains a Sequence Listing, which has been filed electronically in ASCII format, and is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Said ASCII copy was created on March 7, 2014, is titled 209262-0001-00-WO-(509735)_SL.txt, and is 10,335 bytes in size. technical field [0003] The antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof are engineered to bind transforming growth factor-beta (TGFβ). The present invention provides compositions comprising antibodies or fragments thereof and methods for using them in the treatment of diseases associated with TGFβ activity. Background technique [0004] Many serious diseases are associated with dysfunctional signaling pathways induced by TGFβ. Increased tissue levels of TGF[beta] are believed to be a factor in the development of, for example, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and myocardial fibrosis. In addition, high local tissue levels of TGF[beta] allow the maintenance and progress...
