AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Exploitation of the interaction between IGF and IGFBP in screening, preventing, or treating disease has been limited, however, because of a lack of specific antagonists.
IGF antagonists whose mechanism of action is via blockade of interactions at the IGF-1R interface may also significantly alter insulin action at the insulin receptor, a disadvantage of such antagonists.
Generation of specific IGF-1 antagonists has been restricted, at least in part, because of difficulties in studying the structure of IGF and IGFBP.

Experimental Procedure

Construction of Polyvalent Naïve Peptide Libraries

[0208] Libraries were constructed using the method of Sidhu et al., Methods Enzymol., 328: 333-363 (2000) with a phagemid containing an IPTG-inducible Ptac promoter driving the expression of open reading frames encoding fusion proteins of the following form: the STII secretion signal (MKKNIAFLLASMFVFSIATNAYA; SEQ ID NO:8), followed by a random peptide (i.e., a member of the naïve peptide library), followed by a linker (GGGSGGG; SEQ ID NO:9), followed by the M13 gene-8 major coat protein

(AEGDDPAKAAFNSLQASATEYIGYAWAMVVVIVGATIGIKLFKKFTSKAS; SEQ ID NO:10).

Twenty-two different peptide libraries were constructed as shown in Table 1. Phage displaying the naïve libraries were purified by precipitation with PEG / NaCl as described in Sidhu et al., supra, and stored frozen at −70° C.

Structure Determination of IGF-F1-1 by NMR

[0233]1H NMR data were collected on peptide IGF-F1-1 either in pure H2O solution (30° C., pH 5.1 and 5.0 millimolar concentration) or in H2O containing 6% (v / v) d6-DMSO (40° C., pH 5.2 and at a concentration of 6.7 millimolar). In addition to one-dimensional spectra, two-dimensional double-quantum-filtered correlation spectroscopy (2QF-COSY), total correlation spectra (TOCSY), and rotating-frame Overhauser effect spectra (ROESY) were collected. The experiments were recorded as described by Cavanagh et al. in Protein NMR Spectroscopy Principles and Practice (Academic Press, San Diego; ISBN 0-12-164490-1, 1995), except that pulsed-field gradients were used for coherence selection in the 2QF-COSY (van Zijl et al., J. Magn. Reson., 113A: 265-270 (1995)) and excitation sculpting was used to suppress the water resonance in the TOCSY and ROESY experiments (Hwang and Shaka, J. Magn. Reson., 112A: 275-279 (1995)). After lyophilization and dissoluti...

Abstract

Peptides are provided that antagonize the interaction of IGF-1 with its binding proteins, insulin receptor, and IGF receptor. These IGF antagonist peptides are useful in treating disorders involving IGF-1 as a causative agent, such as, for example, various cancers.

Description

RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application is a divisional application of co-pending application Ser. No. 10 / 098,093 filed on Mar. 13, 2002, which is a non-provisional appication filed under 37 CFR 1.53(b)(1), claiming priority under 35 USC 119(e) to provisional application No. 60 / 275,904 filed Mar. 14, 2001, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of the Invention [0003] This invention is directed to peptides that antagonize insulin-like growth factor (IGF), in particular, IGF-1. These peptides are useful in treating disorders caused or mediated by IGFs, such as cancer. [0004] 2. Description of Related Disclosures [0005] There is a large body of literature on the actions and activities of IGFs (IGF-1, IGF-2, and IGF variants). Human IGF-1 is a 7649-dalton polypeptide with a pI of 8.4 (Rinderknecht and Humbel, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 73: 2365 (1976); Rinderknecht and Humbel, J. Biol. Chem., 253: 2769 (1978)) belong...
