Abstract
Description
MULTISPECIFIC ANTIBODY TARGETING HER3 AND TROP2 AND CONJUGATE THEREOF TECHNICAL FIELDThe present application relates to the field of biopharmaceuticals and particularly to a multispecific antibody targeting HER3 and TROP2 and a conjugate thereof. BACKGROUNDCancer has become the second leading health threat worldwide. Cytotoxic drug-based chemotherapy has always been the primary means of cancer treatment. These cytotoxic drugs include DNA base analogs (e.g., 5-fluorouracil and 8-azaguanine), DNA interaction agents (e.g., cisplatin and actinomycin D), antimetabolites (e.g., aminopterin and methotrexate), microtubule inhibitors (e.g., paclitaxel and vincristine derivatives), etc. Most chemotherapeutic drugs have a relatively low therapeutic index, and their serious side effects primarily result from off-target toxicity. To solve this problem, scientists have been exploring cancer treatment methods with higher therapeutic windows.The concept of “magic bullet” was first proposed by Paul Ehrlich at the beginning of the 20th century. He hypothesized that some compounds could enter target tumor cells directly. Theoretically, these compounds can effectively kill cancer cells while being harmless to normal cells. A possible approach is to find markers that can distinguish tumor cells from normal cells, for example, HER2 molecules on the surface of breast cancer cells and CD20 molecules on the surface of B-cell lymphoma. Since the advent of hybridoma technology in 1975, more and more monoclonal antibodies against these tumor antigens have been developed. Although monoclonal antibody drugs have relatively good targeting capability, their killing effects on tumor cells are far inferior to that of chemotherapy. Thus, a new concept, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), is proposed. In this concept, an antibody and a cytotoxic substance are bridged by a linker, with the aim of improving the therapeutic window for tumors.Human trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2) is a single-pass transmembrane surface glycoprotein belonging to the GA733 gene family. It is mainly expressed in epithelial cells and regulates intracellular calcium levels. There is evidence that TROP2 can affect intracellular signaling pathways and is responsible for cell growth, proliferation, and transformation. During embryonic development, the TROP2 protein plays an important role in placentation, embryo implantation, stem cell proliferation, and organ development. There is evidence that TROP2 expression is up-regulated in many tumor cells, and that the up-regulation can promote tumor growth, proliferation, and invasion. TROP2 is widely expressed in solid tumors. A study shows that TROP2 is overexpressed in 100% of squamous cell carcinoma cases (n = 72) and 93.9% of adenocarcinoma cases (n = 181). Its expression is involved in the signaling pathways of tumor proliferation, migration, invasion, and metastasis. Thus, high Trop-2 expression is a negative prognostic factor that affects the overall survival of patients with various solid tumors, including breast cancer. In addition, given that the Trop-2 expression rate in breast cancer can reach 78%, while that in HR+ / HER2- breast cancer can reach up to 78.5%, and that in TNBC can even reach up to 95%, TROP2 has undoubtedly become the “hottest target” in breast cancer after HER2.Human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3), also known as ErbB3, is a cell surface receptor tyrosine kinase belonging to the ErbB family, which includes EGFR (ErbB1), HER2 / neu (ErbB2), HER3 (ErbB3), and HER4 (ErbB4). This member of the ERBB family was discovered over three decades ago in 1989; however, no HER3-targeting drug has been approved to date. HER3 overexpression is common in various types of cancer. Unlike other molecules in the HER family, HER3 lacks intracellular kinase activity, but it can phosphorylate tyrosine kinases by forming heterodimers with other receptors, such as HER2. After ligand-induced dimerized receptor formation, it can intracellularly signal through PI3K / AKT signals and MAPK / ERK signals, playing a key role in cell survival and proliferation and ultimately leading to tumor progression. Recent studies have shown that HER3 overexpression may be associated with poor prognoses in many solid tumors, including breast cancer, gastric cancer, ovarian cancer, and melanoma.At present, neither a multispecific antibody or antigen-binding fragment that targets HER3 and TROP2 simultaneously nor an ADC drug that targets these two targets simultaneously has been found in the prior art. SUMMARYIn a first aspect, the present disclosure relates to a human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3)-binding protein comprising at least one immunoglobulin single variable domain, such as a VHH derived from an animal of the family Camelidae.In a second aspect, the present disclosure relates to a multispecific antigen-binding protein comprising an antibody or antigen-binding fragment that binds to trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2) and at least one immunoglobulin single variable domain that binds to human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3).In a third aspect, the present disclosure further relates to an antibody-drug conjugate consisting of a multispecific antigen-binding protein that binds to HER3 and TROP2 and a cytotoxin, and an anti-tumor effect thereof.The specific features of the invention to which the present application relates are shown in the appended claims.

DETAILED DESCRIPTIONDefinitions of TermsUnless otherwise indicated or defined, all terms used herein have the ordinary meanings in the art that would be understood by those skilled in the art. Refer to, for example, standard handbooks, such as Sambrook et al., “Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual” (2nd Edition), Vol. 1-3, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press (1989); Lewin, “Genes IV”, Oxford University Press, New York (1990); and Roitt et al., “Immunology” (2nd Edition), Gower Medical Publishing, London, New York (1989), and the general prior art cited herein; in addition, unless otherwise specified, all methods, steps, techniques, and procedures that are not specifically described can be, and have been, performed in a manner that itself is known to those skilled in the art. Also refer to, for example, standard handbooks, the general prior art described above, and the other references cited therein.The terms “complete antibody”, “full-length antibody”, and “whole antibody” are used interchangeably herein and generally refer to an immunoglobulin molecule consisting of two identical pairs of polypeptide chains (each pair has one “light” (L) chain and one “heavy” (H) chain). Antibody light chains can be classified as κ and λ light chains. Heavy chains can be classified as μ, δ, γ, α, or ε, and the isotypes of antibodies are defined as IgM, IgD, IgG, IgA, and IgE, respectively. Within a light chain and a heavy chain, the variable regions and the constant regions can be linked by a “J” region of about 12 or more amino acids. The heavy chain can further comprise a “D” region of about 3 or more amino acids. The heavy chain may consist of a heavy chain variable region (VH) and a heavy chain constant region (CH). The heavy chain constant region may consist of 3 domains (CH1, CH2, and CH3). The light chain may consist of a light chain variable region (VL) and a light chain constant region (CL). The light chain constant region may consist of one domain: CL. The constant regions of an antibody can mediate the binding of immunoglobulins to host tissues or factors, including various cells of the immune system (e.g., effector cells) and the first component of the classical complement system (C1q). The VH and VL regions can also be subdivided into regions with high variability (known as complementarity determining regions (CDRs)) interspersed with relatively conserved regions known as framework regions (FRs). For example, the VH and VL may each comprise or consist of 3 CDRs and 4 FRs arranged from the amino-terminus to the carboxy-terminus in the following order: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4. The variable regions (VH and VL) of each heavy / light chain pair form an antibody binding site.The term “antibody fragment” or “antigen-binding fragment” refers to a molecule different from a full-length antibody, the molecule comprising a portion of the full-length antibody and retaining the ability to specifically bind to an antigen (i.e., to bind to the same antigen as the full-length antibody from which the portion or fragment is derived). Examples of antibody fragments include, but are not limited to, Fv, Fab, Fab', Fab'-SH, and F(ab')2; diabodies; linear antibodies; single-chain antibodies (e.g., scFvs); single-domain antibodies; bivalent antibodies or fragments thereof; and camelid antibodies (heavy-chain antibodies). The term also encompasses fragments of bispecific antibodies or multispecific antibodies, and / or bispecific antibodies or multispecific antibodies formed from antibody fragments.“Complementarity determining regions” or “CDR regions” or “CDRs” are regions in an antibody variable domain that are highly variable in sequence and form structurally defined loops (“hypervariable loops”) and / or comprise antigen contact residues (“antigen contact points”). CDRs are primarily responsible for binding to antigenic epitopes. The CDRs of heavy and light chains are generally referred to as CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3, and are sequentially numbered from the N-terminus. The CDRs located in a heavy chain variable domain of an antibody are referred to as HCDR1, HCDR2, and HCDR3, and the CDRs located in a light chain variable domain of an antibody are referred to as LCDR1, LCDR2, and LCDR3. In the amino acid sequence of a given light or heavy chain variable region, the exact amino acid sequence boundaries of the CDRs can be determined using any one or a combination of many well-known antibody CDR assignment systems, including, e.g., Chothia, which is based on the three-dimensional structures of antibodies and the topology of CDR loops (Chothia et al., (1989) Nature 342: 877-883; Al-Lazikani et al., “Standard conformations for the canonical structures of immunoglobulins”, Journal of Molecular Biology, 273: 927-948 (1997)), Kabat, which is based on antibody sequence variability (Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 4th Edition, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health (1987)), AbM (University of Bath), Contact (University College London), International ImMunoGeneTics database (IMGT) (imgt.cines.fr / on the World Wide Web), and the North CDR definition, which is based on an affinity propagation clustering using a large number of crystal structures (North et al., “A New Clustering of Antibody CDR Loop Conformations”, Journal of Molecular Biology, 406, 228-256 (2011)).In the present disclosure, the regional ranges of CDRs defined using the Kabat, AbM, or IMGT scheme are as follows:CDRKabat schemeAbM schemeIMGT schemeChothia schemeLCDR1 (Kabat and Chothia numbering systems)L24-L34L24-L34L27-L32L26-L32LCDR2 (Kabat and Chothia numbering systems)L50-L56L50-L56L50-L52L50-L52LCDR3 (Kabat and Chothia numbering systems)L89-L97L89-L97L89-L96L91-L96HCDR1 (Kabat numbering system)H31-H35BH26-H35BH26-H35BH26-H32HCDR1 (Chothia numbering system)H31-H35H26-H35H26-H35H26-H32HCDR2 (Kabat and Chothia numbering systems)H50-H65H50-H58H51-H57H53-H55HCDR3 (Kabat and Chothia numbering systems)H95-H102H95-H102H93-H102H96-H101Unless otherwise specified, the term “CDR” or “CDR sequence” as used in the present disclosure encompasses CDR sequences determined by any one of the schemes described above.Herein, when “Kabat CDR” is referred to, it refers to a CDR determined based on the Kabat scheme. Similarly, “Chothia CDR” refers to a CDR determined based on the Chothia scheme, “Abm CDR” refers to a CDR determined based on the Abm scheme, and “IMGT CDR” refers to a CDR determined based on the IMGT scheme.The term “antibody” is not limited by any particular antibody production method. For example, it includes, in particular, recombinant antibodies, monoclonal antibodies, and polyclonal antibodies. Antibodies may be antibodies of different isotypes, e.g., IgG (e.g., the IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, or IgG4 subtype), IgA1, IgA2, IgD, IgE, or IgM antibodies.As used herein, the term “antigen-binding protein”, “binding protein”, or “binding molecule” includes molecules comprising at least one antigen-binding site, wherein the site specifically binds to a target molecule. The antigen-binding protein may be an antibody, e.g., a full-length antibody, or an antigen-binding fragment of the antibody, or a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), or any other polypeptide having an affinity higher than usual, e.g., a scaffold protein, a cyclic peptide, a soluble receptor, a receptor-antibody (Rab) protein, or a fragment of these polypeptides. The target molecule may be any molecule. Herein, the target molecule may particularly be HER3 or TROP2, particularly a conformational epitope of HER3 or TROP2.As used herein, the term “multispecific antigen-binding protein” is used in the broadest sense to refer to a binding protein capable of binding (preferably specifically binding) to two or more antigens. Without being bound by theory, in general, the multispecific antigen-binding protein comprises a plurality of structures that are relatively independent and provide binding specificities for the plurality of antigens, respectively; for example, each of the plurality of structures independently comprises one or more binding sites for its respective target antigen; for example, at least one of the plurality of structures is an antibody or antibody fragment. In certain aspects, at least one binding specificity is provided by an antibody. In certain aspects, at least one binding specificity is provided by a full-length antibody. In certain aspects, at least one binding specificity is provided by a VHH domain. In certain aspects, a multispecific binding protein is a bispecific antibody.In the present application, the term “bispecific antibody” generally refers to an antibody capable of binding to two antigens or antigenic epitopes. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the bispecific antibody may comprise a light chain and a heavy chain of an antibody capable of specifically binding to a first antigen or antigenic epitope, and a light chain and a heavy chain of an antibody capable of specifically binding to a second antigen or antigenic epitope. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the bispecific antibody may comprise a VHH domain capable of specifically binding to a first antigen or antigenic epitope, and a light chain and a heavy chain of an antibody capable of specifically binding to a second antigen or antigenic epitope.The term “epitope” or “antigenic epitope” generally refers to a site on an antigen to which an immunoglobulin or antibody specifically binds. “Epitope” is also referred to in the art as “antigenic determinant”. Epitopes or antigenic determinants usually consist of chemically active surface groups of molecules such as amino acids or carbohydrates or sugar side chains and usually have specific three-dimensional structural characteristics and specific charge characteristics. For example, an epitope usually comprises at least 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15 contiguous or non-contiguous amino acids in a unique spatial conformation, and it may be “linear” or “conformational”. See, e.g., Epitope Mapping Protocols in Methods in Molecular Biology, Vol. 66, G. E. Morris, Ed. (1996). In a linear epitope, all points of interaction between a protein and an interacting molecule (e.g., an antibody) are present linearly along the primary amino acid sequence of the protein. In a conformational epitope, the points of interaction are present across amino acid residues on the protein that are separated from one another.The term “specificity” refers to the number of different types of antigens or epitopes to which a particular antigen-binding molecule or antigen-binding protein can bind. The specificity of an antigen-binding protein can be determined based on its affinity and / or avidity. Affinity, expressed as the dissociation equilibrium constant (KD) of an antigen and an antigen-binding protein, measures the binding strength between an epitope and an antigen-binding site on the antigen-binding protein: the smaller the KD value, the stronger the binding strength between the epitope and the antigen-binding protein (or, the affinity can also be expressed as the association constant (KA), which is 1 / KD). As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, affinity can be determined in a known manner depending on the specific antigen of interest. Avidity measures the binding strength between an antigen-binding protein (e.g., an immunoglobulin, an antibody, an immunoglobulin single variable domain, or a polypeptide comprising same) and a related antigen. Avidity is related to both the affinity between antigen-binding sites on its antigen-binding protein and the number of related binding sites present on the antigen-binding protein.As used in the present application, the term “domain” (of a polypeptide or protein) refers to a folded protein structure that is capable of maintaining its tertiary structure independently of the rest of the protein. In general, a domain is responsible for a single functional property of a protein and, in many cases, may be added, removed, or transferred to other proteins without compromising the functionality of the rest of the protein and / or the domain. As used in the present application, the term “immunoglobulin domain” refers to a globular region of an antibody chain (e.g., a chain of a conventional 4-chain antibody or a chain of a heavy-chain antibody) or a polypeptide consisting essentially of such globular regions. An immunoglobulin domain is characterized in that it maintains the immunoglobulin folding characteristics of an antibody molecule.As used in the present application, the term “immunoglobulin variable domain” refers to an immunoglobulin domain consisting essentially of: four “framework regions” referred to in the art and hereinafter as “framework region 1” or “FR1”, “framework region 2” or “FR2”, “framework region 3” or “FR3”, and “framework region 4” or “FR4”, and three “complementarity determining regions” or “CDRs” referred to in the art and hereinafter as “complementarity determining region 1” or “CDR1”, “complementarity determining region 2” or “CDR2”, and “complementarity determining region 3” or “CDR3” that space the framework regions apart. Thus, the general structure or sequence of an immunoglobulin variable domain can be represented as follows: FR1-CDR1-FR2-CDR2-FR3-CDR3-FR4. An immunoglobulin variable domain imparts specificity for an antigen to an antibody due to the antigen-binding site it has. The variable domains of the heavy and light chains of natural antibodies generally have similar structures. As used in the present application, the term “immunoglobulin single variable domain” refers to an immunoglobulin variable domain that is capable of specifically binding to an antigenic epitope without pairing with other immunoglobulin variable domains. A single heavy chain variable (VH) or light chain variable (VL) domain may be sufficient to provide antigen-binding specificity. An example of the immunoglobulin single variable domain in the context of the present application is a “domain antibody”, such as an immunoglobulin single variable domain VH or VL (VH domain or VL domain). Another example of the immunoglobulin single variable domain is a “VHH domain” (or “VHH” for short) of the family Camelidae as defined below, sometimes also known as a “single-domain antibody” or “nanobody”.A “VHH domain”, also known as a single-domain antibody, a VHH, a VHH domain, a VHH antibody fragment, and a VHH antibody, is the variable domain of an antigen-binding immunoglobulin known as a “heavy-chain antibody” (Hamers-Casterman C, Atarhouch T, Muyldermans S, Robinson G, Hamers C, Songa EB, Bendahman N, Hamers R.: “Naturally occurring antibodies devoid of light chains”; Nature 363,446-448 (1993)). The term “VHH domain” is used to distinguish the variable domain from the heavy chain variable domain (which is referred to in the present application as a “VH domain”) present in a conventional 4-chain antibody. The VHH domain specifically binds to an epitope without requiring additional antigen-binding domains (as opposed to the VH or VL domain in a conventional 4-chain antibody where epitope recognition involves both the VL and VH domains). A VHH domain is a small, stable, and efficient antigen recognition unit formed from a single immunoglobulin domain. A VHH is, for example, derived from an animal of the family Camelidae, such as an alpaca, or is a humanized form thereof or a sequence-optimized form thereof (e.g., an affinity-matured form to increase the binding affinity). In some embodiments, the VHH is a monovalent monospecific polypeptide molecule consisting of, or consisting essentially of, a single heavy chain variable region (e.g., the heavy chain variable region of a heavy-chain antibody). Preferably, in one embodiment, the present disclosure provides an immunoglobulin single variable domain comprising a humanized VHH. Preferably, in one embodiment, the present disclosure provides an antibody comprising a humanized VHH. Preferably, in one embodiment, the present disclosure provides a multispecific antigen-binding protein (e.g., multispecific antibody) comprising a humanized VHH.In the context of the present application, the terms “VHH domain”, “VHH”, “VHH domain”, “VHH antibody fragment”, and “VHH antibody” are used interchangeably.For example, as shown in Riechmann and Muyldermans, J. Immunol. Methods 231, 25-38 (1999) (see FIG. 2 therein), the amino acid residues used in VHH domains of the family Camelidae can be numbered according to the general numbering method for VH domains given by Kabat et al. (Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md. (1991)).Alternative methods for numbering the amino acid residues of VH domains are known in the art and can also be similarly applied to VHH domains. For example, Chothia CDRs refer to the positions of structural loops (Chothia and Lesk, J. Mol. Biol. 196: 901-917 (1987)). AbM CDRs represent a compromise between Kabat hypervariable regions and Chothia structure loops, and are used in Oxford Molecular’s AbM antibody modeling software. “Contact” CDRs are based on the analysis of available complex crystal structures.Single-domain antibodies or VHHs may also be contained in larger polypeptides / proteins. Examples of polypeptides / proteins comprising the VHH of the present disclosure include, but are not limited to, a heavy-chain antibody (HcAb).The “heavy-chain antibody” described in the present disclosure refers to an antibody having no light chain, which may comprise, for example, from the N-segment to the C-segment, VH-Fc or VH-CH2-CH3 or VH-hinge region-CH2-CH3, or may comprise VH-CH1-CH2-CH3. The heavy-chain antibody of the present disclosure may also encompass a homodimer, e.g., a heavy-chain dimer antibody having no light chain. The heavy-chain antibody may comprise a VH from a standard antibody or a VH from a single-domain antibody. For example, the VH in the heavy-chain antibody may be a VHH. For example, the heavy-chain antibody may be a heavy-chain antibody having framework regions and / or a heavy chain constant region derived from animals of the family Camelidae (llamas and camels, particularly alpacas), a humanized form thereof or a sequence-optimized form thereof (affinity-matured form), or a fragment thereof (e.g., a fragment comprising at least a portion of the constant region). The heavy-chain antibody may also encompass an antibody formed by fusing a heavy chain variable region or a VHH to an Fc region (e.g., a human IgG Fc region, e.g., a human IgG1 or IgG4 Fc region).The term “Fc region” is used herein to define a C-terminal region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain that comprises at least a portion of the constant region. The term includes Fc regions of natural sequences and variant Fc regions. A natural immunoglobulin “Fc domain” comprises two or three constant domains: a CH2 domain, a CH3 domain, and an optional CH4 domain. For example, in natural antibodies, an immunoglobulin Fc domain comprises the second and the third constant domains (the CH2 domain and the CH3 domain) derived from two heavy chains of IgG, IgA, and IgD antibodies, or comprises the second, the third, and the fourth constant domains (the CH2 domain, the CH3 domain, and the CH4 domain) derived from two heavy chains of IgM and IgE antibodies. Unless otherwise specified herein, the amino acid residues in an Fc region or heavy chain constant region are numbered according to the EU numbering system (also known as the EU index) described in, for example, Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interes, 5th Edition, Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, 1991. Herein, the term “Fc region” does not comprise the heavy chain variable region VH and the light chain variable region VL, as well as the heavy chain constant region CH1 and the light chain constant region CL, of an immunoglobulin, but in some cases, it may comprise the hinge region at the N-terminus of the heavy chain constant region. In some embodiments, the Fc region of the present disclosure is from IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, or IgG4. In some embodiments, the Fc region of the present disclosure comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2 or 3, or an amino acid sequence having at least 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identity to the amino acid sequence.The term “protein-drug conjugate” generally refers to a binding protein (e.g., an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof) linked to one or more chemical drugs, such as an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). The chemical drugs may be any therapeutic agents and / or cytotoxic agents. The antibody-drug conjugate may have anywhere from 1 to 16 drugs conjugated to the antibody; for example, it may include drug-loaded species of 2, 4, 6, or 8. In the present disclosure, the drugs may include mitotic inhibitors, anti-tumor antibiotics, immunomodulators, vectors for gene therapy, alkylating agents, anti-angiogenic agents, anti-metabolites, boron-containing agents, chemoprotective agents, hormones, anti-hormone agents, corticosteroids, photoactive therapeutic agents, oligonucleotides, radionuclide agents, topoisomerase inhibitors, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and / or radiosensitizers, etc.In the present application, the term “drug / antibody ratio” or “DAR” generally refers to the number of drugs linked to the antibody (or protein) of the ADC. The DAR of an ADC may range from 1 to 8, or may also be higher (e.g., 10). The range of the DAR can depend on the number of linking sites on the antibody. In the present application, the DAR may be the number of drugs loaded onto an individual antibody. The DAR may also be an average or mean DAR of a group of ADCs.The term “linker” refers to a structural fragment that links a drug (e.g., a small-molecule drug) and an antibody moiety. It will be appreciated that the linker has a functional group that can form a bond with a functional group of an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof before being linked to the antibody or the antigen-binding fragment thereof.In the present application, the term “HER3” generally refers to human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (SwissProt P21860). Human HER3, also known as ErbB-3, ERBB3, c-erbB-3, c-erbB3, or receptor tyrosine protein kinase erbB-3, is a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) family of receptor tyrosine kinases. This family also includes HER1 (also known as EGFR), HER2, and HER4. HER3 is a transmembrane receptor similar to EGFR, consisting of an extracellular ligand-binding domain (ECD), a dimerization domain within the ECD, a transmembrane domain, an intracellular protein tyrosine kinase domain (TKD), and a C-terminal phosphorylation domain. HER3 is capable of binding to its ligands. Although it cannot directly transmit signals into cells via protein phosphorylation, it can indirectly activate signaling pathways by forming heterodimers with other HER family members with kinase activity. Dimer formation between HER family members expands the signaling potential of HER3 and is not only a means of signal diversification but also a means of signal amplification. The HER3 may include any variants, truncated forms, fragments, isoforms, and species homologs of HER3 that are naturally expressed by cells, including tumor cells, or are expressed by cells transfected with the HER3 gene or cDNA.As used herein, the term “alkyl” refers to a saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon group that is a linear or branched group containing 1 to 20 carbon atoms, preferably an alkyl group containing 1 to 12 carbon atoms, more preferably an alkyl group containing 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and most preferably an alkyl group containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms.The term “cycloalkyl” refers to a saturated or partially unsaturated monocyclic or polycyclic hydrocarbon substituent. The cycloalkyl ring contains 3 to 20 carbon atoms, preferably 3 to 12 carbon atoms, and more preferably 3 to 10 carbon atoms. Non-limiting examples of monocyclic cycloalkyl groups include cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclopentenyl, cyclohexyl, cyclohexenyl, cyclohexadienyl, cycloheptyl, cycloheptatrienyl, cyclooctyl, etc. Polycyclic cycloalkyl groups include spiro-ring, fused-ring, and bridged-ring cycloalkyl groups.The term “cycloalkylene” refers to a saturated or partially unsaturated monocyclic or polycyclic hydrocarbon group, which is a residue derived by removing two hydrogen atoms from the same carbon atom or two different carbon atoms of the parental alkane.The term “heterocycloalkyl” refers to a saturated or partially unsaturated monocyclic or polycyclic hydrocarbon substituent containing 3 to 20 ring atoms, wherein one or more of the ring atoms are heteroatoms selected from nitrogen, oxygen, and S(O)m (where m is an integer from 0 to 2), but a ring moiety of -O-O-, -O-S-, or -S-S- is excluded, and the other ring atoms are carbon atoms.The term “heterocycloalkylene” refers to a saturated or partially unsaturated monocyclic or polycyclic hydrocarbon group containing 3 to 20 ring atoms, wherein one or more of the ring atoms are heteroatoms selected from nitrogen, oxygen, and S(O)m (where m is an integer from 0 to 2), but a ring moiety of -O-O-, -O-S-, or -S-S- is excluded, and the other ring atoms are carbon atoms.

At the end of the last immunization, 50 mL of peripheral blood was collected from the camel into a vacuum blood collection tube, and the supernatant was collected as post-immunization serum.Lymphocytes were isolated using density gradient centrifugation, and total RNA was extracted using an RNA extraction kit provided by QIAGEN. The extracted RNA was all reverse-transcribed into cDNA using a Super-Script III FIRST STRANDSUPERMIX kit (ThermoFisher) according to the instructions. Nested PCR was performed to amplify nucleic acid fragments encoding the variable regions of heavy-chain antibodies.A nucleic acid fragment encoding the target heavy-chain single-domain antibody was recovered and cloned into the phage display vector pComb3XSS using the restriction endonuclease SfiI. The product was subsequently electroporated into Escherichia coli electrocompetent cells TG1 to construct an anti-HER3 immune single-domain antibody phage display library, and the library was characterized. Through gradient dilution plating, the library size was calculated to be about 1.0 × 108. 1.2. Panning for HER3 single-domain antibodyThe previously obtained phage library was subjected to panning. In the first round of panning, HER3-muFc (human HER3-mouse Fc fusion protein) was used as the screening antigen, and PD-L1-Fc was used as the negative screening antigen. In the second and third rounds of panning, HER3-muFc was used as the screening antigen, and SP-Fc (signal peptide-Fc fusion protein) was used as the negative screening antigen. After panning, clones binding to HER3-muFc while not binding to Fc were obtained.The binding-positive phages obtained after panning were used to infect blank Escherichia coli cells, and the cells were plated. Subsequently, colonies were picked, inoculated separately into 2TY-AG (containing 10% glycerol), and left to stand overnight at room temperature. The next day, each culture was inoculated into 200 μL of 2TY-AG, with an inoculation amount of 1%, and cultured with shaking at 250 rpm at 37 °C until OD600 was about 0.5. Helper phage M13KO7 was added for infection (at a multiplicity of infection of 1:20). The cultures were left to stand at 37 °C for 15 min and then incubated at 220 rpm for 45 min. 800 μL of 2TY-AG was added to each well, and the plate was incubated overnight at 30 °C at 220 rpm and centrifuged the next day. The supernatants were collected for ELISA analysis. Plates were coated overnight at 4 °C with HER3-Fc and SP-Fc, respectively, and the obtained supernatants were added. The plates were incubated at room temperature for 2 hours. After washing, the secondary antibody goat anti-HA tag HRP (purchased from Abcam) or goat anti-mouse IgG-HRP (purchased from Thermo) was added, and the plates were incubated at room temperature for 2 hours. After washing, the TMB chromogenic solution was added, and the absorbance values at wavelengths of 450 nm and 650 nm were read. The final absorbance values were obtained by subtracting the absorbance values at the wavelength of 650 nm from the absorbance values at the wavelength of 450 nm.

Preparation of HER3 single-domain antibody and its Fc fusion proteinA sequence fragment encoding the HER3 single-domain antibody VHH was amplified by PCR and fused with a DNA fragment encoding human IgG1-Fc, or a His tag (Chis) was fused to its C-terminus. The resulting sequence was cloned into a conventional mammalian expression vector to obtain a recombinant plasmid for expressing an HER3 single-domain antibody-Fc / Chis fusion protein in mammals. The universal primers used for PCR amplification are shown below:Upstream primer cccACCGGTCAGGTGCAGCTGCAGGAGTC (SEQ ID NO: 57)Downstream primer cccGGATCCTGAGGAGACGGTGACCTGG (SEQ ID NO: 58)The constructed plasmid vectors were transfected into HEK293 cells for transient antibody expression. The recombinant expression plasmids were diluted with Freestyle293 culture medium, and a PEI (polyethylenimine) solution required for transformation was added. Each plasmid / PEI mixture was added to a suspension of HEK293 cells, and suspension cell culture was performed at 37 °C with 5% CO2. After 5-6 days of culture, the transient expression culture supernatant was collected and purified by Protein A affinity chromatography or using a Ni column to obtain the target HER3 single-domain antibody-Fc / Chis fusion protein. 1.4. Determination of affinity for HER3The affinity of the HER3 single-domain antibody was determined by ELISA: Coating was performed overnight at 4 °C with 5 μg / mL Her3-muFc. The HER3 single-domain antibody-Chis to be tested was serially diluted 3-fold with 1% BSA + 0.05% PBST20 from a starting concentration of 5 μg / mL to obtain a total of 10 gradients, and incubation was performed at room temperature for 2 h. After plate washing with 1% BSA + 0.05% PBST20, the secondary antibody anti-6*his tag HRP (purchased from abcam, diluted in a 1:10,000 ratio) was added. After plate washing with 1% BSA + 0.05% PBST20, the TMB chromogenic solution was added, and color development was performed at room temperature for 5 min. The absorbance values at wavelengths of 450 nm and 650 nm were read. The final absorbance values were obtained by subtracting the absorbance values at the wavelength of 650 nm from the absorbance values at the wavelength of 450 nm. The results are shown in FIG. 1. The EC50 value of iBT11-Chis was 5.39 ng / mL.The binding kinetics of the HER3 single-domain antibody-Fc fusion protein to HER3-chis was studied using biolayer interferometry (BLI). The iBT11-Fc fusion protein was diluted to 10 μg / mL and then immobilized on an AHC biosensor, and then HER3-chis was diluted to 5 gradients: 100 nM, 50 nM, 25 nM, 12.5 nM, and 6.25 nM, and allowed to bind to the immobilized iBT11-Fc fusion protein.

Modeling was performed using Modeller 9, and the relative solvent accessibility of amino acids on the framework was calculated based on the three-dimensional structure of the protein.The specific procedure of VHH humanization universal framework grafting is as follows: A highly homologous human antibody sequence is obtained through IMGT, and the target sequence is humanized with reference to the universal humanization VHH framework hNbBcII10FGLA (PDB No. 3EAK). A highly homologous sequence framework is used as the framework template, and the CDRs are replaced with the CDR regions of the target antibody. Non-surface amino acids on the framework are then back-mutated based on the model to complete the humanization of the target antibody.The antibody iBT11 was humanized to obtain the following humanized variants: huiBT11v1 (SEQ ID NO: 2), huiBT11v3 (SEQ ID NO: 3), huiBT11v4 (SEQ ID NO: 4), huiBT11v5 (SEQ ID NO: 5), huiBT11v6 (SEQ ID NO: 6), and huiBT11v7 (SEQ ID NO: 7).Genes encoding the humanized sequences described above were synthesized and fused with a DNA fragment encoding human IgG1-Fc, and the resulting sequences were cloned into conventional mammalian expression vectors to obtain recombinant plasmids for expressing HER3 single-domain antibody-Fc fusion proteins in mammals. The constructed vectors were transfected into HEK293 cells for transient antibody expression. The recombinant expression plasmids were diluted with Freestyle293 culture medium, and a PEI (polyethylenimine) solution required for transformation was added. Each plasmid / PEI mixture was added to a suspension of HEK293 cells, and the cells were cultured at 37 °C at 130 rpm with 5% CO2. After four hours, EXCELL293 culture medium and 2 mM glutamine were added, and the cells were cultured at 130 rpm. After 24 hours, 3.8 mM VPA was added. After 72 hours, 4 g / L glucose was added. After 5-6 days of culture, the transient expression culture supernatant was collected and purified by Protein A affinity chromatography to obtain the target huiBT11 single-domain antibody-Fc fusion proteins. 1.6. Determination of affinity of humanized antibodiesThe affinity of humanized antibodies for HER3 was determined by ELISA: Coating was performed overnight at 4 °C with 5 μg / mL Her3-muFc. The antibodies were serially diluted 4-fold with 1% BSA + 0.05% PBST20 from a starting concentration of 100 μg / mL to obtain a total of 10 gradients, and incubation was performed at room temperature for 2 h. After plate washing with 1% BSA + 0.05% PBST20, the detection secondary antibody goat anti-human IgG (Fc specific)-HRP (purchased from Sigma, diluted in a 1:8000 ratio) was added, and incubation was performed at room temperature for 2 h. After plate washing with 1% BSA + 0.05% PBST20, the TMB chromogenic solution was added, and color development was performed at room temperature for 5 min. The absorbance values at wavelengths of 450 nm and 650 nm were read. The final absorbance values were obtained by subtracting the absorbance values at the wavelength of 650 nm from the absorbance values at the wavelength of 450 nm. The results are shown in Table 3.For the sequences of the positive control antibody AV203, reference was made to Patent WO2011136911: Genes encoding AV203HC (SEQ ID NO: 55) and AV203LC (SEQ ID NO: 56) were synthesized and cloned into conventional mammalian expression vectors, and the constructed vectors were transfected into HEK293 cells for transient antibody expression.Table 3.

Determination of blocking activity of humanized antibodiesThe blocking activity of humanized antibodies against the binding of HER3-muFc to NRG1b1 was determined by ELISA. Coating was performed overnight at 4 °C with 1 μg / mL NRG1 beta 1 (purchased from Sino) and SP-NRG1b-Chis. The antibodies to be tested were serially diluted 4-fold with 1% BSA + 0.05% PBST20 + 200 ng / mL Her3-muFc from a starting concentration of 20 μg / mL to obtain a total of 6 gradients, and incubation was performed at room temperature for 2 h. After plate washing with 1% BSA + 0.05% PBST20, the detection secondary antibody goat anti-mouse IgG1-HRP (purchased from Thermo, diluted in a 1:3000 ratio) was added, and incubation was performed at room temperature for 2 h. After plate washing with 1% BSA + 0.05% PBST20, the TMB chromogenic solution was added, and color development was performed at room temperature for 7.5 min. The absorbance values at wavelengths of 450 nm and 650 nm were read. The final absorbance values were obtained by subtracting the absorbance values at the wavelength of 650 nm from the absorbance values at the wavelength of 450 nm.

Preparation of antibody AGenes encoding the sequences of the first polypeptide (SEQ ID NO: 51) and the second polypeptide (SEQ ID NO: 50) of the target bispecific antibody (antibody A) were synthesized, amplified by PCR using primers, and cloned into conventional pcDNA3.4 mammalian expression vectors to obtain pcDNA3.4-A recombinant plasmids.HEK293 cells were cultured in 293M culture medium at 37 °C at 130 ± 10 rpm with 5% CO2. Before transient transfection, the HEK293 cell density was adjusted to 6 × 106 cells / mL. The pcDNA3.4-A plasmids and the transfection reagent PEI were well mixed in a 1:6 ratio, and the well-mixed transfection reagent and plasmid complex was added to about 2 mL of expression culture medium OPM-293-CD05. The mixture was left to stand for 5 min. The above solution was added to 100 mL of expression culture medium, and the mixture was incubated at 37 °C at 130 ± 10 rpm with 5% CO2. On day 7, the mixture was centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 10 min, and the supernatant was collected. The collected supernatant was subjected to Protein A affinity purification to obtain the target protein. The size of the target protein was confirmed to be correct by SDS PAGE. 2.2. Preparation of linker-toxinThe following linker-toxin (LP1) was prepared according to the process described in Patent Application CN113264983A (the content of which is incorporated herein by reference):Analysis showed LP1 MS m / z (ESI): 1375.77. 2.3. Preparation of antibody A-ADCStep 1: A stock solution of antibody A (mainly G0F) was desalted into an HEPES buffer, and the resulting solution was set aside for later use. Ultrapure water (210 μL), MnCl2 (1 M, 5 μL), UDP-GalNAz (100 mM, 25 μL), Tris-HCl (1 M, 5 μL), antibody A (25.5 mg / mL, 196 μL), and GalT1 (5.2 mg / mL, 12 μL, SEQ ID NO: 52) were sequentially added to a 1.5 mL centrifuge tube. The mixture was left to react at 30 °C at 400 rpm for 12 h. After the reaction was complete, the reaction mixture was purified by Protein A and concentrated by ultrafiltration into DPBS to give antibody A-(N3)4 for later use.Step 2: LP1 (16 μL, 50 mM), DMSO (25 μL), and the antibody A-(N3)4 obtained in step 1 (10 mg / mL, 800 μL) were sequentially added to a 1.5 mL centrifuge tube. The mixture was left to react at 30 °C at 400 rpm for 12 h. After the reaction was complete, the reaction mixture was desalted into DPBS to obtain antibody A-ADC. The molecular weight was measured by mass spectrometry. The results are shown in FIG. 2. Comparison with the antibody A before conjugation confirmed that the target product had been obtained. RP-HPLC analysis confirmed that the product had a DAR value of about 3.8. The overall reaction scheme is shown in FIG. 3. Example 3: Characterization of Biological Activity of Antibody A-ADC3.1. Determination of TROP2-binding activity of antibody A-ADC (BLI method)The affinity of antibody A-ADC for human and monkey TROP2 was determined based on bio-layer interferometry (BLI). First, antibody A-ADC was diluted to 10 μg / mL and immobilized on a proA biosensor. Then, the TROP2 protein was diluted to obtain 7 concentrations and allowed to bind to antibody A-ADC. Binding signals with different intensities could be detected. Data were analyzed using Data Analysis HT 12.0 software, fitting was performed using a 1:1 model, and the equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) values of the samples were calculated. The results are shown in Table 5. The ability of antibody A-ADC to bind to the human TROP2 protein and the monkey TROP2 protein was comparable to that of the naked antibody.Table 5.

Determination of simultaneous binding activity of antibody A-ADC to HER3 and TROP2The ability of antibody A-ADC to simultaneously bind to the HER3 and TROP2 proteins was assessed by ELISA. The test sample (multiple concentration gradients) was added to a microplate pre-coated with antigen 1 (HER3-His), and the plate was incubated. Then, biotinylated antigen 2 (TROP2-Biotin, prepared in-house) was added, and the plate was incubated. Finally, a horseradish peroxidase-labeled detection antibody (SA-HRP) was added to form a solid-phase antigen 1-antibody A-ADC sample-antigen 2-enzyme-labeled detection antibody complex. Absorbance values were read at 450 nm using a microplate reader, and data were analyzed by four-parameter fit curve analysis. The results are shown in Table 7. Both antibody A-ADC and antibody A could bind to the human HER3 and TROP2 proteins simultaneously, with the binding EC50 values being 31.42 nM and 29.95 nM, respectively, indicating that the two were comparable in binding ability. iBT11V7-Fc and hRS7-IgG1 could not bind to the two proteins simultaneously.Table 7.

Determination of binding activity of antibody A-ADC to tumor cellsThe triple-negative breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-468, the human gastric cancer cell line NCI-N87, and the human pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC-3 (all purchased from Beina Chuanglian Biotech Co., Ltd.) (1.0 × 105 / well) were separately co-incubated with antibody A-ADC and antibody A (the highest final concentration: 200 nM, 3-fold serial dilution, 10 concentrations in total) on ice for 30 min. After 2 washes, the APC anti-human IgG Fc fluorescent antibody was added, and incubation was performed on ice in a dark place for 30 min. After 2 washes, the fluorescence intensity on the cell surface was measured using a flow cytometer. The flow cytometry results were analyzed using CytExpert software, the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of each test sample was calculated, and four-parameter fitting was performed for the experimental results using GraphPad Prism 7.0.The results are shown in Table 8. Antibody A-ADC and the naked antibody, antibody A, exhibited similar binding activity to tumor cells.Table 8.

Determination of bridging effect of antibody A-ADC on 293T-TROP2 and 293T-HER3 cells293T-TROP2-GFP cells (1.0 × 105 / well, HEK293T cells expressing TROP2 on the cell surface and expressing green fluorescent protein intracellularly, prepared in-house) and 293T-HER3-CellTrace Violet cells (1.0 × 105 / well, expressing HER3 on the cell surface, labeled with CellTrace™ Violet fluorescent dye, purchased from Kyinno Biotechnology Co., Ltd.) were mixed in a 1:1 ratio. After the cell mixture was well mixed with antibody A-ADC, antibody A, and a mixture of iBT11V7-FC and hRS7-IgG1 (concentration range: 0.016-50 nM), the resulting mixtures were incubated on ice in a dark place for 30 min. After 2 washes, fluorescence signals of 293T-HER3-CellTrace Violet cells and fluorescence signals of 293T-TROP2-GFP cells were collected by the PB450 / FITC channels of a CytoFelx flow cytometer, respectively. The dual fluorescence signal events in the two-dimensional scatter plots of the PB450 channel and the FITC channel reflected the bridging effect of antibody A-ADC on the two types of target cells.The results are shown in Table 9. As the concentration of antibody A-ADC increased, the percentage of dual fluorescence signal events among the total events in the test sample gradually increased from 1.82% to 22.46%, showing significant concentration dependence; however, as the concentration of the drug continued to increase, the percentage of dual fluorescence signal events among the total events gradually decreased, and the bridging effect of antibody A-ADC on the two types of cells decreased, showing a “Hook-effect”. The ability of antibody A to bridge the two types of cells was comparable to that of antibody A-ADC. The results show that antibody A, as an anti-HER3 and TROP2 bispecific antibody-drug conjugate, could bind to TROP2- and HER3-positive cells simultaneously and had the ability to bridge the two types of cells. In contrast, the mixture of the anti-TROP2 monoclonal antibody and the anti-HER3 single-domain antibody-Fc fusion protein showed no significant bridging effect.Table 9.

Determination of killing effect of antibody A-ADC on tumor cellsHuman pancreatic cancer BxPC-3 cells were plated on 96-well plates at 5 × 103 / well and cultured overnight, and then antibody A-ADC, antibody A, and iso-ADC (an isotype control ADC drug, the antibody of which was a human IgG1 isotype control, and the toxin-linker of which was the same as that of antibody A-ADC, obtained by the same preparation process as antibody A-ADC) were separately added, with the final concentrations being 0.006-25 nM. The cells were cultured at 37 °C for 120 h. The OD values at 450 / 650 nm were determined using the CCK-8 method and a microplate reader, the viability of the experimental cells was calculated, and thus, the inhibition rate of each experimental group was calculated. Then, the logarithmic values of the standard curve sample concentration (x) and the calculated inhibition rates (%) (y) were fitted using the 4-parameter logistic fit in GraphPad Prism 7.0 software to calculate the IC50 of the test samples. The experimental results are shown in FIG. 4. Antibody A-ADC exhibited a significant killing effect on BxPC-3 cells, with an IC50 of 0.141 nM, while antibody A and iso-ADC exhibited no significant killing effects on BxPC-3 cells.The killing effects of antibody A-ADC on the human epidermal carcinoma cell line A431 (purchased from Beina Chuanglian Biotech Co., Ltd., the final concentrations of the sample: 0.003-50 nM), the human pancreatic cancer cell line CAPAN-2 (purchased from Beina Chuanglian Biotech Co., Ltd., the final concentrations of the sample: 0.006-100 nM), and the human lung adenocarcinoma cell line HCC827 (purchased from Nanjing Cobioer Biosciences Co., Ltd., the final concentrations of the sample: 0.012-50 nM) were tested using a similar method. The results are shown in FIGs. 5-7. Antibody A-ADC exhibited significant killing effects on all these tumor cells, while antibody A and iso-ADC exhibited no significant killing effect. 3.7. Determination of bystander killing effect of antibody A-ADC on TROP2- and HER3-negative cellsTo investigate the bystander effect of antibody A-ADC, a BxPC-3 (TROP2- and HER3-positive) mono-culture system, a 293T-GFP (TROP2- and HER3-negative) mono-culture system, and a BxPC-3 and 293T-GFP (1:1) co-culture system were treated with antibody A-ADC and iso-ADC. After 96 h, the cells in all sample wells were counted and assayed using a flow cytometer:Mono-culture plating: The density of both cell types was adjusted to 3 × 104 / mL using a culture medium (RPMI1640 + 10% FBS), and each type of cells was plated on a 96-well plate at 100 μL / well (3 × 103 cells / well). The cells were cultured overnight in an incubator at 37 °C with 5% CO2.Co-culture plating: The two types of cells were mixed in a culture medium (RPMI-1640 + 10% FBS), with the density of BxPC-3 cells being 3.0 × 104 / mL and the density of 293T-GFP cells being 3.0 × 104 / mL. The cells were plated on a 96-well plate at 100 μL / well and cultured overnight at 37 °C with 5% CO2.Antibody A-ADC and iso-ADC (working concentration: 10 nM) were added at 100 μL / well, and a drug-free control group (negative control) was set. Three replicates were set for each sample. Then, the cells were cultured at 37 °C with 5% CO2 for 96 h. Subsequently, 20 μL of CCK-8 was added to the mono-culture sample wells, and after 3 h of standing at 37 °C, the OD values at 450 / 650 nm were determined using a microplate reader. The cells in the co-culture sample wells were digested with trypsin and counted, and the remaining cells were washed once with DPBS and then assayed using a flow cytometer. The number of cells N was determined using a cell counter, and the proportion of TROP2- and HER3-positive cells (V1L% parental group) and the proportion of TROP2- and HER3-negative cells (V1R% parental group) in each concentration group of the co-culture group were determined using a flow cytometer.For the mono-culture system: The inhibition rate (%) of the test sample at each concentration = For the co-culture system: The inhibition rate (%) of the test sample at each concentration against BxPC-3 = The inhibition rate (%) of the test sample at each concentration against 293T-GFP = The results are shown in FIG. 8. In the mono-culture system, the average inhibition rate of 10 nM antibody A-ADC against BxPC-3 cells was 65.31%, and its killing effect on 293T-GFP cells was not significant; in the co-culture system, the average inhibition rate of 10 nM antibody A-ADC against BxPC-3 cells was 43.86%, and its average inhibition rate against 293T-GFP cells was 78.8%. It can be seen that antibody A-ADC exhibited a significant bystander killing effect on TROP2- and HER3-negative cells compared to iso-ADC. 3.8. Evaluation of anti-tumor effect of antibody A-ADC in human lung cancer CDX model HCC827 subcutaneous xenograft mouse animal modelBALB / c Nude mice (purchased from Vital River (Beijing) Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd.) were subcutaneously injected with human HCC827 cells to establish an animal model: 0.2 mL (10 × 106 cells) of HCC827 cells (mixed with Matrigel in a 1:1 volume ratio) was subcutaneously inoculated into the right dorsal side of each mouse. When the mean tumor volume reached about 123 mm3, animals were randomly divided into 5 groups of 6 according to body weight and tumor volume: a vehicle control group (PBS), an iso-ADC group (10 mg / kg), an antibody A-ADC low-dose group (1 mg / kg), an antibody A-ADC medium-dose group (3 mg / kg), and an antibody A-ADC high-dose group (10 mg / kg). The day of grouping was defined as day 0. The test articles were intraperitoneally injected on days 1, 5, 8, and 12 (4 injections in total). During the experiment, tumor volume and mouse body weight were measured twice weekly.The results showed that during the experiment, there was no significant difference in animal body weight between the PBS group and the antibody A-ADC treatment groups, and there were no significant abnormalities in the status of the mice. As shown in FIG. 9, 32 days after grouping and administration, the mean tumor volume of the vehicle control group was 1552 mm3, and the tumor volumes of the antibody A-ADC (1 mg / kg, 3 mg / kg, and 10 mg / kg) treatment groups were 1073 mm3, 743 mm3, and 120 mm3, respectively, with TGI% (relative tumor growth inhibition rate, in percentage terms) of 33.4%, 56.5%, and 100.2%, respectively (with p values of 0.0103, 0.0001, and 0.0001, respectively).It can be seen that in the CDX model of human lung cancer HCC827, antibody A-ADC, administered 4 times at doses ranging from 1 to 10 mg / kg, exhibited a significant dose-dependent tumor-inhibiting effect. In addition, the body weight change results showed that antibody A-ADC was well tolerated at each dose. 3.9. Evaluation of anti-tumor effect of antibody A-ADC in human gastric cancer CDX model NCI-N87 subcutaneous xenograft mouse animal model0.2 mL (10 × 106 cells) of NCI-N87 cells (mixed with Matrigel in a 1:1 volume ratio) was subcutaneously inoculated into the right dorsal side of each BALB / c Nude mouse. When the mean tumor volume reached about 169 mm3, animals were randomly divided into 3 groups of 6 according to body weight and tumor volume: a vehicle control group (PBS), an antibody A-ADC low-dose group (3 mg / kg), and an antibody A-ADC high-dose group (10 mg / kg). Administration was performed once weekly for a total of 2 weeks.The results showed that the single-drug test group of each test article showed no significant influence on the body weight of the mice, and there were no significant abnormalities in the status of the mice. As shown in FIG. 10, 20 days after the start of administration, the mean tumor volume of the tumor-bearing mice in the solvent control group reached 826 mm3. In the treatment groups of the test article antibody A-ADC (10 mg / kg and 3 mg / kg), the tumor volumes were 209 mm3 and 591 mm3 (T / C% = 27.22% and 72.64%; TGI% = 94.07% and 35.65%; p < 0.0001 and p = 0.0807), respectively. The treatment group of the test article antibody A-ADC (10 mg / kg) showed a significant anti-tumor effect compared to the control group. 3.10. Evaluation of anti-tumor effect and tolerability of antibody A-ADC in osimertinib-resistant human lung cancer PDX model LU-01-1377 subcutaneous xenograft NOD / SCID mouse animal modelThe establishment of human-derived tumor PDX models initially comes from clinical samples obtained through surgical resection, which are defined as the P0 generation after being implanted into experimental mice. After implantation of tumor tissue from the P0 generation into the next generation, the P1 generation is obtained. Similarly, this process of implanting tumor tissue into experimental mice can continue. FP3 tumors are obtained by re-thawing the P2 generation. The next generation resulting from the FP3 generation is defined as FP4, and so on. Tumor tissue from the FP8 generation was used in this pharmacodynamic experiment with the LU-01-1377 model.A 20-30 mm3 LU-01-1377 tumor tissue block was inoculated into the right dorsal side of each NOD / SCID mouse (purchased from Vital River (Beijing) Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd.), and tumors were allowed to grow. The in vivo pharmacodynamic experiment was conducted on day 33 after the inoculation of the LU-01-1377 tumor blocks. When the mean tumor volume reached 141 mm3, random grouping and administration were started. The day of grouping was defined as day 1, and administration was started immediately after grouping. The experiment included antibody A-ADC treatment groups (1 mg / kg, 3 mg / kg, and 10 mg / kg) and a vehicle PBS negative control group, with 6 animals in each group. After grouping, administration was performed by tail vein injection twice weekly. The efficacy and tolerability were evaluated based on tumor growth inhibition (TGI) rates and body weight changes.The body weight change results showed that on day 27 after the first dose, all the animals in the control group and the test drug groups survived without significant body weight loss. The anti-tumor efficacy results are shown in FIG. 11. The mean tumor volume of the mice in the PBS control group on day 27 after the first dose following grouping was 1244 ± 216 mm3. The mean tumor volume of the antibody A-ADC high-dose treatment group (10 mg / kg) on day 27 after the first dose following grouping was 0 ± 0 mm3 (10 mg / kg), with a relative tumor growth inhibition (TGI) rate (%) of 112.78%; there was a statistically significant difference (p < 0.0001) between this treatment group and the PBS control group. The mean tumor volume of the antibody A-ADC medium-dose treatment group (3 mg / kg) on day 27 after the first dose following grouping was 81 ± 43 mm3, with a relative tumor growth inhibition (TGI) rate (%) of 105.43%; there was a statistically significant difference (p < 0.0001) between this treatment group and the PBS control group. The mean tumor volume of the antibody A-ADC low-dose treatment group (1 mg / kg) on day 27 after the first dose following grouping was 1085 ± 171 mm3, with a relative tumor growth inhibition (TGI) rate (%) of 14.35%; there was no statistically significant difference (p = 0.7601) between this treatment group and the PBS control group. 3.11. Evaluation of anti-tumor effect of antibody A-ADC in HCC827 cell strain subcutaneous graft BALB / c nude female mouse model100 μL (1 × 106 cells) of a suspension of HCC827 cells in a mixture of PBS and Matrigel (1:1) was subcutaneously inoculated into the right dorsal side of each BALB / c nude mouse (purchased from Zhejiang Vital River Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd.). After inoculation, the growth of tumors was observed regularly. When the tumors grew to a mean volume of about 93 mm3, animals were randomly grouped according to tumor size and dosed. The day of grouping was defined as day 0. The experiment included an antibody A-ADC treatment group (11.5 mg / kg), sacituzumab govitecan positive control groups (10 mg / kg and 20 mg / kg, purchased from Gilead Sciences, hereinafter referred to as SG), and a PBS blank control group, with 6 mice in each group. Administration was performed by tail vein injection once weekly, and a total of four doses were administered. The experiment was ended on day 49 after the first dose. The efficacy was evaluated based on tumor growth inhibition rates, and the safety was evaluated based on animal body weight changes and mortality.At the end of the experiment, no animal deaths were observed in any group except for the SG 10 mg / kg group, in which one mouse died, and no abnormal weight loss was observed in the mice. The anti-tumor efficacy results are shown in FIG. 12. The mean tumor volume of the mice in the PBS group at the end of the experiment was 580 mm3. The tumor volume of the antibody A-ADC treatment group (11.5 mg / kg) was 43 mm3, with TGI (%) being 92.6% (p < 0.001) compared to the PBS group. The tumor volumes of the positive control SG 10 mg / kg group and 20 mg / kg group were 244 mm3 and 121 mm3, respectively, with TGI (%) being 58.0% (p < 0.05) and 79.2% (p < 0.001) compared to the PBS group. 3.12. Study of stability of antibody A-ADC in serum of different speciesAntibody A-ADC was diluted with human, cynomolgus monkey, rat, and mouse serum to prepare 10 μg / mL and 100 μg / mL solutions, and then the solutions were aliquoted at 100 μL per tube, with one aliquot prepared for each time point. The aliquots were incubated at 37 °C for 0, 3, 7, 14, and 21 days, respectively, and then taken out and cryopreserved. The DXd content in serum was determined by LC-MS / MS: DXd in the test samples was extracted by protein precipitation, and the treated samples were analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS / MS).The results showed that by day 21, the DXd release rates of antibody A-ADC (100 μg / mL) in human, cynomolgus monkey, rat, and mouse serum were 0.637%, 0.698%, 0.355%, and 0.439%, respectively. The DXd release rates of antibody A-ADC (10 μg / mL) in human, cynomolgus monkey, rat, and mouse serum were 0.696%, 0.702%, 0.368%, and 0.492%, respectively. This indicates that antibody A-ADC could remain stable in the serum of various species, with relatively low payload toxin (DXd) release rates.
