Problems solved by technology

MacroGenics is currently trying to address this issue by fusing the Fc domain to its next-generation DART (WO2015026892), which makes the molecule not only larger, but can also lead to manufacturing issues and importation of other Fc functions
Larger form of Fc expected to have better PK but reintroduces risk of off-target activity

[0922] More specifically, the polypeptides of the invention induce T cell activation, wherein said T cell activation causes IFN-γ secretion at an average EC50 value between 100 nM and 10 pM, such as an average EC50 value of 50 nM or below, such as less than 40, 30 , 20, 10 or 9 nM or even less, such as less than 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 or 1 nM or even less, such as less than 500 pM or even less, such as less than 400, 300, 200 or 100 pM Or even less, said EC50 values ​​are eg determined in an ELISA based assay, eg as further explained in Example 30.

[0923] More specifically, a polypeptide of the invention induces T cell activation, wherein said T cell activation causes IL-6 secretion with an average EC50 value between 100 nM and 10 pM, such as an average EC50 value of 50 nM or below, such as less than 40, 30, 20 or 10 nM or even less, such as less than 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 or 1 nM or even less, such as less than 500 pM or even less, such as less than 400, 300, 200 or 100 pM or...

[0925] Accordingly, the present invention relates to a polypeptide wherein said T cell activation results in depletion of plasmacytoid cells (pDC) and basophils.

[0926] In another aspect, the multispecific polypeptides of the invention can further elicit T cell proliferation. (See Example 39)

[0927] Accordingly, the present invention relates to a polypeptide, wherein said T cell activation results in proliferation of said T cell.

[0928] The multispecific polypeptides of the invention comprise one or more ISVs that specifically bind CD123, which ISVs have been carefully selected for their specificity. Thus, the multispecific polypeptides of the invention exhibit highly specific binding to CD123, which enables them to kill target cells expressing CD123. In contrast, only minimal killing was observed in the absence of CD123 expressing cells, emphasizing the safety of the polypeptides of the invention.

[0929] Thus, in another aspect, the invention relates to polypeptide...

[0930] More particularly, the invention relates to a polypeptide wherein T cell activation of CD123 negative cells induces lysis of no more than about 10%, such as less than 9%, such as 8, 7 or 6% or even less, said lysis being e.g. Determined as the mean percent lysis in a flow cytometry-based assay with TOPRO3 readout using CD123-negative cells (e.g., U-937 or NCI-H929 cells) as target cells and human T cells as effector cells , the ratio of effector cells to target cells was 10:1.

[0931] More specifically, the present invention relates to a polypeptide that does not induce the secretion of IFN-γ and IL-6, eg as determined in an ELISA-based assay, in the presence of CD123 negative cells.

[0932] The inventors have observed that certain multispecific polypeptides of the invention, comprising a TCR-binding ISV of the invention and one or more CD123-binding ISVs of the invention, are particularly suitable for redirecting T cells to kill CD123 expressing cells. With these m...

Abstract

Polypeptides are provided that bind CD123 on a target cell and the constant domain of TCR on a T cell. The polypeptides can be used in methods for treatment of CD123 associated cancers or inflammatoryconditions.

Description

[0001] field of invention [0002] The present invention provides a multispecific T cell recruitment polypeptide comprising an immunoglobulin single variable domain that specifically binds to the constant domain of a T cell receptor (TCR), and one or more CD123 that binds to a CD123 expression expressed on a target cell. immunoglobulin single variable domain. The invention also relates to monovalent CD123-binding polypeptides useful in these multispecific polypeptides. The present invention also provides nucleic acids encoding the polypeptides as well as vectors, hosts and methods for producing the polypeptides of the present invention. The invention also relates to methods of treatment utilizing the polypeptides of the invention and kits providing the polypeptides of the invention. Background technique [0003] CD123 (alpha subunit of the interleukin 3 receptor, IL-3Rα) is a 75 kDa glycoprotein that becomes 43 kDa after digestion with N-glycosidase (Sato et al., 1993, Blood...
