DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0029] Solid tumors have been a challenge for antibody-mediated T-cell redirection therapy, with very limited, if any, drugs yet approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Limitation of the approach may be related to the lack of cancer specificity of targets leading to toxicity occurring at subefficacious doses. To mitigate this liability, the work described hereinhas focused on the identification of cancer-specific antigens with potentially greater therapeutic index based on apically expressed targets. Apical protein targets are unreachable by directed antibody through the blood stream in normal tissues, however in tumors characterized by disorganized expression, these proteins are reachable through the blood stream. Using this approach, ENPP3 was identified as a target with mainly apical expression in normal tissues and depolarized expression in cancer.
[0030] The invention provides bispecific ENPP3 x CD3 binding agents and methods of use thereof. In one embodiment, provided are compositions comprising the bispecific binding agents. The described compositions can be used to carry out the methods of using the binding agents provided herein, or other methods known to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, the described compositions can include one or more of the binding agents (e.g., antibodies or proteins), or an antigen binding region(s) thereof, described herein. In one embodiment, provided is a bispecific binding antibody comprising a first binding region specifically binding ENPP3 (an ENPP3 -binding domain) and a second binding region specifically binding CD3s (a CD3s- binding domain).
[0031] In some embodiments, the invention provides for the use of the compositions or bispecific binding agents of the invention for the diagnosis or treatment of a disease or disorder. In one embodiment, the disease or disorder is cancer.
[0032] In some embodiments, the invention provides for the use of the compositions or bispecific binding agents of the invention to target T cells to an ENPP3 expressing cell. In one embodiment, the ENPP3 expressing cell is a cancer cell.7.1 General Techniques
[0033] Techniques and procedures described or referenced herein include those that are generally well understood and / or commonly employed using conventional methodology by those skilled in the art, such as, for example, the widely utilized methodologies described in Sambrook et al., Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual (3d ed. 2001); Current Protocols in Molecular Biology (Ausubel et al. eds., 2003); Therapeutic Monoclonal Antibodies: From Bench to Clinic (An ed. 2009); Monoclonal Antibodies: Methods and Protocols (Albitar ed. 2010); and Antibody Engineering Vols 1 and 2 (Kontermann and Dtibel eds., 2d ed. 2010).7.2 Terminology
[0034] Unless described otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as is commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. For purposes of interpreting this specification, the following description of terms will apply and whenever appropriate, terms used in the singular will also include the plural and vice versa. All patents, applications, published applications, and other publications are incorporated by reference in their entirety. In the event that any description of terms set forth conflicts with any document incorporated herein by reference, the description of term set forth below shall control.
[0035] Unless otherwise defined herein, technical and scientific terms used in the present description have the meanings that are commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art. Whenever appropriate, terms used in the singular will also include the plural and vice versa. In the event that any description of a term set forth conflicts with any document incorporated herein by reference, the description of the term set forth below shall control.
[0036] The term “binding agent” as used herein refers to a molecule that binds a specific antigen or target (e.g., ENPP3 and / or CD3). A binding agent may comprise a protein, peptide, nucleic acid, carbohydrate, lipid, or small molecular weight compound. In some embodiments, a binding agent comprises a full-length antibody. In some embodiments, a binding agent is an antigen binding fragment of an antibody. In some embodiments, a binding agent comprises an alternative protein scaffold or artificial scaffold (e.g., a non-immunoglobulin backbone). In some embodiments, a binding agent is a fusion protein comprising an antigen-binding site. In some embodiments, a binding agent is a bispecific molecule comprising at least two antigenbinding sites. In some embodiments, a binding agent is a multispecific molecule comprising at least three antigen-binding sites.
[0037] The terms “ENPP3” “ENPP3 protein” and “ENPP3 polypeptide” encompass a polypeptide (“polypeptide” and “protein” are used interchangeably herein), including any native polypeptide, from any vertebrate source, including mammals such as primates (e.g., humans and cynomolgus monkeys (cynomolgus)), dogs, and rodents (e.g., mice and rats), unless otherwise indicated. In certain embodiments, the terms include “related ENPP3 polypeptides,” including SNP variants thereof. The term “ENPP3” also encompasses “full-length,” unprocessed ENPP3 as well as any form that results from processing. The amino acid sequence of a full length ENPP3 is shown in SEQ ID NO: 51.Human ENPP3 :MESTLTLATEQPVKKNTLKKYKIACIVLLALLVIMSLGLGLGLGLRKLEKQGSCR KKCFDASFRGLENCRCDVACKDRGDCCWDFEDTCVESTRIWMCNKFRCGETRLEASLC SCSDDCLQRKDCCADYKSVCQGETSWLEENCDTAQQSQCPEGFDLPPVILFSMDGFRAE YLYTWDTLMPNINKLKTCGIHSKYMRAMYPTKTFPNHYHVTGLYPESHGIIDNNMYDV NLNI<NFSLSSI<EQNNPAWWHGQPMWLTAMYQGLI<AATYFWPGSEVAINGSFPSIYMP YNGSVPFEERISTLLKWLDLPKAERPRFYTMYFEEPDSSGHAGGPVSARVIKALQVVDH AFGMLMEGLKQRNLHNCVNIILLADHGMDQTYCNKMEYMTDYFPRINFFYMYEGPAP RIRAHNIPHDFFSFNSEEIVRNLSCRKPDQHFKPYLTPDLPKRLHYAKNVRIDKVHLFVD QQWLAVRSKSNTNCGGGNHGYNNEFRSMEAIFLAHGPSFKEKTEVEPFENIEVYNLMC DLLRIQPAPNNGTHGSLNHLLKVPFYEPSHAEEVSKFSVCGFANPLPTESLDCFCPHLQN STQLEQVNQMLNLTQEEITATVKVNLPFGRPRVLQKNVDHCLLYHREYVSGFGKAMR MPMWS S YTVPQLGDTSPLPPTVPDCLRADVRVPPSES QKCSF YE ADKNITHGFLYPPAS NRTSDSQYDALITSNLVPMYEEFRKMWDYFHSVLLIKHATERNGVNVVSGPIFDYNYD GHFDAPDEITKHLANTDVPIPTHYFWLTSCKNKSHTPENCPGWLDVLPFIIPHRPTNVES CPEGKPEALWVEERFTAHIARVRDVELLTGLDFYQDKVQPVSEILQLKTYLPTFETTI (SEQ ID NO:51)
[0038] The term “Cluster of Differentiation 3 e” or “CD3s” refers to a known protein which is also called “T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 epsilon chain,” or “T3E.” CD3s, together with CD3-gamma, -delta and -zeta, and the T-cell receptor alpha / beta and gamma / delta heterodimers, forms the T-cell receptor-CD3 complex. This complex plays an important role in coupling antigen recognition to several intracellular signal-transduction pathways. The CD3 complex mediates signal transduction, resulting in T cell activation and proliferation. CD3 is required for the immune response. The amino acid sequence of a full length CD3s is shown in SEQ ID NO:60. The amino acid sequence of the extracellular domain (ECD) of CD3s is shown in SEQ ID NO:61. Throughout the specification, “CD3s-specific” or “specifically binds CD3s” or “anti- CD3s antibody” refers to antibodies that bind specifically to the CD3s polypeptide (SEQ ID NO:60), including antibodies that bind specifically to the CD3s extracellular domain (ECD) (SEQ ID NO:61).Human CD3 epsilon:MQSGTHWRVLGLCLLSVGVWGQDGNEEMGGITQTPYKVSISGTTVILTCPQYPG SEILWQHNDKNIGGDEDDKNIGSDEDHLSLKEFSELEQSGYYVCYPRGSKPEDANFYLY LRARVCENCMEMDVMSVATIVIVDICITGGLLLLVYYWSKNRKAKAKPVTRGAGAGGRQRGQNKERPPPVPNPDYEPIRKGQRDLYSGLNQRRI (SEQ ID NQ:60)Human CD3 epsilon extracellular domain:DGNEEMGGITQTPYKVSISGTTVILTCPQYPGSEILWQHNDKNIGGDEDDKNIGS DEDHLSLKEFSELEQSGYYVCYPRGSKPEDANFYLYLRARVCENCMEMD (SEQ ID NO:61)
[0039] The terms “binds” or “binding” refer to an interaction between molecules including, for example, to form a complex. Interactions can be, for example, non-covalent interactions including hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, hydrophobic interactions, and / or van der Waals interactions. A complex can also include the binding of two or more molecules held together by covalent or non-covalent bonds, interactions, or forces. The strength of the total non-covalent interactions between a single antigen-binding site on an antibody and a single epitope of a target molecule, such as an antigen, is the affinity of the antibody or functional fragment for that epitope. The ratio of dissociation rate (kOff) to association rate (kon) of a binding molecule (e.g., an antibody) to a monovalent antigen (kOff / kOn) is the dissociation constant KD, which is inversely related to affinity. The lower the KD value, the higher the affinity of the antibody. The value of KD varies for different complexes of antibody and antigen and depends on both konand kOff. The dissociation constant KD for an antibody provided herein can be determined using any method provided herein or any other method well known to those skilled in the art. The affinity at one binding site does not always reflect the true strength of the interaction between an antibody and an antigen. When complex antigens containing multiple, repeating antigenic determinants, such as a polyvalent antigen, come in contact with antibodies containing multiple binding sites, the interaction of antibody with antigen at one site will increase the probability of a reaction at a second site. The strength of such multiple interactions between a multivalent antibody and antigen is called the avidity.
[0040] In connection with the binding molecules described herein terms such as “bind to,” “that specifically bind to,” and analogous terms are also used interchangeably herein and refer to binding molecules of antigen binding domains that specifically bind to an antigen, such as a polypeptide. A binding molecule or antigen binding domain that binds to or specifically binds to an antigen can be identified, for example, by immunoassays, Octet®, Biacore®, or other techniques known to those of skill in the art. In some embodiments, a binding molecule orantigen binding domain binds to or specifically binds to an antigen when it binds to an antigen with higher affinity than to any cross-reactive antigen as determined using experimental techniques, such as enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Typically, a specific or selective reaction will be at least twice background signal or noise and may be more than 10 times background. See, e.g., Fundamental Immunology 332-36 (Paul ed., 2d ed. 1989) for a discussion regarding binding specificity. In certain embodiments, the extent of binding of a binding molecule or antigen binding domain to a “non-targef ’ protein is less than about 10% of the binding of the binding molecule or antigen binding domain to its particular target antigen, for example, as determined by fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis. A binding molecule or antigen binding domain that binds to an antigen includes one that is capable of binding the antigen with sufficient affinity such that the binding molecule is useful, for example, as a therapeutic and / or diagnostic agent in targeting the antigen. In certain embodiments, a binding molecule or antigen binding domain that binds to an antigen has a dissociation constant (KD) of less than or equal to IpM, 800 nM, 600 nM, 550 nM, 500 nM, 300 nM, 250 nM, 100 nM, 50 nM, 10 nM, 5 nM, 4 nM, 3 nM, 2 nM, 1 nM, 0.9 nM, 0.8 nM, 0.7 nM, 0.6 nM, 0.5 nM, 0.4 nM, 0.3 nM, 0.2 nM, or 0.1 nM. In certain embodiments, a binding molecule or antigen binding domain binds to an epitope of an antigen that is conserved among the antigen from different species.
[0041] The term “antibody,” “immunoglobulin,” or “Ig” is used interchangeably herein, and is used in the broadest sense and specifically covers, for example polyclonal antibodies, monoclonal antibodies (including agonist, antagonist, neutralizing antibodies, full-length monoclonal antibodies), antibody compositions with polyepitopic or monoepitopic specificity, recombinantly produced antibodies, single domain (e.g., VHH) antibodies, multispecific antibodies, including bispecific antibodies, synthetic antibodies, chimeric antibodies, humanized antibodies, or human versions of antibodies having full-length heavy and / or light chains. Antibodies also include antibody fragments (and / or polypeptides that comprise antibody fragments) that retain binding characteristics of their parental antibodies. Non-limiting examples of antibody fragments include antigen-binding regions and / or effector regions of the antibody, e.g., Fab, Fab’, F(ab’)2, Fv, scFv, (scFv)2, spFv, single chain antibody molecule, dual variable domain antibody, single variable domain, linear antibody, V region, a multispecific antibody formed from antibody fragments, F(ab)2, Fd, Fc, diabody, di-diabody, disulfide-linked Fvs(dsFv), single-domain antibody (e.g., nanobody) or other fragments (e.g., fragments consisting of the variable regions of the heavy and light chains that are non-covalently coupled). In some embodiments, an antibody comprises a fusion protein comprising an antigen-binding site. In some embodiments, an antibody comprises an spFv-Fc fusion protein. In some embodiments, an antibody comprises a full-length antibody arm, comprising a heavy chain and a light chain. In some embodiments, an antibody comprises an spFv-Fc fusion protein and a full-length antibody arm. In general terms, a variable (V) region domain may be any suitable arrangement of immunoglobulin heavy (VH) and / or light (VL) variable domains. For example, antibodies also include tetrameric antibodies comprising two heavy chain and two light chain molecules, an antibody light chain monomer, and an antibody heavy chain monomer. Thus, for example, the V region domain may be dimeric and contain VHH-VHH, VH-VH, VH-VL, or VL-VL dimers that bind ENPP3. If desired, the VH and VL may be covalently coupled either directly or through a linker to form a single chain Fv (scFv). For ease of reference, scFv proteins are referred to herein as included in the category “antibody fragments.” Another form of an antibody fragment is a peptide comprising one or more complementarity determining regions (CDRs) of an antibody. CDRs (also termed “minimal recognition units” or “hypervariable regions”) can be obtained by constructing polynucleotides that encode one or more CDRs of interest. Such polynucleotides are prepared, for example, by using the polymerase chain reaction to synthesize the variable region using mRNA of antibody-producing cells as a template (see, for example, Larrick et al., Methods: A Companion to Methods in Enzymology, 2: 106 (1991); Courtenay- Luck, “Genetic Manipulation of Monoclonal Antibodies,” in Monoclonal Antibodies Production, Engineering and Clinical Application, Ritter et al. (eds.), page 166, Cambridge University Press (1995); and Ward et al., “Genetic Manipulation and Expression of Antibodies,” in Monoclonal Antibodies: Principles and Applications, Birch et al., (eds.), page 137, Wiley-Liss, Inc. (1995)). Antibody fragments may be incorporated, for example, into single domain antibodies, maxibodies, minibodies, intrabodies, diabodies, triabodies, tetrabodies, variable domains of new antigen receptors (v-NAR), and bis-single chain Fv regions (see, e.g., Hollinger and Hudson, Nature Biotechnology, 23(9): 1126-1136, 2005). In some embodiments, antibodies comprising a VH and / or VL contain a light chain and / or a heavy chain constant region, such as one or more constant regions, including one or more IgGl, IgG2, IgG3 and / or IgG4 constant regions. In some embodiments, antibodies can include epitope-binding fragments of any of the above. Theantibodies described herein can be of any class (e.g., IgG, IgE, IgM, IgD, and IgA) or any subclass (e.g., IgGl, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgAl, and IgA2) of immunoglobulin molecule.
[0042] An “intact” antibody is one comprising an antigen-binding site as well as a CL and at least heavy chain constant regions, CHI, CH2 and CH3. The constant regions may include human constant regions or amino acid sequence variants thereof. In certain embodiments, an intact antibody has one or more effector functions. A “functional fragment,” “binding fragment,” or “antigen binding fragment” of a therapeutic antibody will exhibit at least one if not some or all of the biological functions attributed to the intact antibody, the function comprising at least binding to the target antigens (e.g., a bispecific ENPP3 x CD3 binding fragment or fragment that binds to ENPP3 and CD3).
[0043] A typical 4-chain antibody unit is a heterotetrametric glycoprotein composed of two identical light (L) chains and two identical heavy (H) chains. In the case of IgGs, the 4-chain unit is generally about 150,000 Daltons. Each L chain is linked to an H chain by one covalent disulfide bond, while the two H chains are linked to each other by one or more disulfide bonds depending on the H chain isotype. Each H and L chain also has regularly spaced intrachain disulfide bridges. Each H chain has at the N-terminus, a variable domain (VH) followed by three constant domains (CH) for each of the a and y chains and four CH domains for p and s isotypes. Each L chain has at the N-terminus, a variable domain (VL) followed by a constant domain (CL) at its other end. The VL is aligned with the VH, and the CL is aligned with the first constant domain of the heavy chain (CHI). Particular amino acid residues are believed to form an interface between the light chain and heavy chain variable domains. The pairing of a VH and VL together forms a single antigen-binding site. For the structure and properties of the different classes of antibodies, see, for example, Basic and Clinical Immunology 71 (Stites et al. eds., 8th ed. 1994); and Immunobiology (Janeway et al. eds., 5thed. 2001).
[0044] The term “variable region,” “variable domain,” “V region,” or “V domain” refers to a portion of the light or heavy chains of an antibody that is generally located at the amino-terminal of the light or heavy chain and has a length of about 120 to 130 amino acids in the heavy chain and about 100 to 110 amino acids in the light chain, and are used in the binding and specificity of each particular antibody for its particular antigen. The variable region of the heavy chain may be referred to as “VH.” The variable region of the light chain may be referred to as “VL.” The term “variable” refers to the fact that certain segments of the variable regions differ extensivelyin sequence among antibodies. The V region mediates antigen binding and defines specificity of a particular antibody for its particular antigen. However, the variability is not evenly distributed across the 110-amino acid span of the variable regions. Instead, the V regions consist of less variable (e.g., relatively invariant) stretches called framework regions (FRs) of about 15-30 amino acids separated by shorter regions of greater variability (e.g., extreme variability) called “hypervariable regions” that are each about 9-12 amino acids long. The variable regions of heavy and light chains each comprise four FRs, largely adopting a 0 sheet configuration, connected by three hypervariable regions, which form loops connecting, and in some cases form part of, the 0 sheet structure. The hypervariable regions in each chain are held together in close proximity by the FRs and, with the hypervariable regions from the other chain, contribute to the formation of the antigen-binding site of antibodies (see, e.g., Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest (5th ed. 1991)). The constant regions are not involved directly in binding an antibody to an antigen, but exhibit various effector functions, such as participation of the antibody in antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC). The variable regions differ extensively in sequence between different antibodies. In specific embodiments, the variable region is a human variable region.
[0045] The term “variable region residue numbering according to Kabat” or “amino acid position numbering as in Kabat,” and variations thereof, refer to the numbering system used for heavy chain variable regions or light chain variable regions of the compilation of antibodies in Kabat et al., supra. Using this numbering system, the actual linear amino acid sequence may contain fewer or additional amino acids corresponding to a shortening of, or insertion into, an FR or CDR of the variable domain. For example, a heavy chain variable domain may include a single amino acid insert (residue 52a according to Kabat) after residue 52 and three inserted residues (e.g., residues 82a, 82b, and 82c, etc. according to Kabat) after residue 82. The Kabat numbering of residues may be determined for a given antibody by alignment at regions of homology of the sequence of the antibody with a “standard” Kabat numbered sequence. The Kabat numbering system is generally used when referring to a residue in the variable domain (approximately residues 1-107 of the light chain and residues 1-113 of the heavy chain) (e.g., Kabat et al., supra . The “EU numbering system” or “EU index” is generally used when referring to a residue in an immunoglobulin heavy chain constant region (e.g., the EU index reported in Kabat et al., supra). The “EU index as in Kabat” refers to the residue numbering ofthe human IgG 1 EU antibody. Other numbering systems have been described, for example, by AbM, Chothia, Contact, IMGT, and AHon.
[0046] The term “heavy chain” when used in reference to an antibody refers to a polypeptide chain of about 50-70 kDa, wherein the amino-terminal portion includes a variable region of about 120 to 130 or more amino acids, and a carboxy -terminal portion includes a constant region. The constant region can be one of five distinct types, (e.g., isotypes) referred to as alpha (a), delta (5), epsilon (s), gamma (y), and mu (p), based on the amino acid sequence of the heavy chain constant region. The distinct heavy chains differ in size: a, 5, and y contain approximately 450 amino acids, while p and s contain approximately 550 amino acids. When combined with a light chain, these distinct types of heavy chains give rise to five well known classes (e.g., isotypes) of antibodies, IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM, respectively, including four subclasses of IgG, namely IgGl, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4.
[0047] The term “light chain” when used in reference to an antibody refers to a polypeptide chain of about 25 kDa, wherein the amino-terminal portion includes a variable region of about 100 to about 110 or more amino acids, and a carboxy -terminal portion includes a constant region. The approximate length of a light chain is 211 to 217 amino acids. There are two distinct types, referred to as kappa (K) or lambda (X) based on the amino acid sequence of the constant domains.
[0048] As used herein, the terms “hypervariable region,” “HVR,” “Complementarity Determining Region,” and “CDR” are used interchangeably. A “CDR” refers to one of three hypervariable regions (Hl, H2 or H3) within the non-framework region of the immunoglobulin (Ig or antibody) VH P-sheet framework, or one of three hypervariable regions (LI, L2 or L3) within the non-framework region of the antibody VL P-sheet framework. CDR1 , CDR2 and CDR3 in VH domain are also referred to as HCDR1, HCDR2 and HCDR3, respectively. CDR1, CDR2 and CDR3 in VL domain are also referred to as LCDR1, LCDR2 and LCDR3, respectively. Accordingly, CDRs are variable region sequences interspersed within the framework region sequences.
[0049] CDR regions are well known to those skilled in the art and have been defined by well-known numbering systems. For example, the Kabat Complementarity Determining Regions (CDRs) are based on sequence variability and are the most commonly used (see, e.g., Kabat et al., supra,' Nick Deschacht et al., J Immunol 2010; 184:5696-5704). Chothia refers instead to thelocation of the structural loops (see, e.g., Chothia and Lesk, J. Mol. Biol. 196:901-17 (1987)). The end of the Chothia CDR-H1 loop when numbered using the Kabat numbering convention varies between H32 and H34 depending on the length of the loop (this is because the Kabat numbering scheme places the insertions at H35A and H35B; if neither 35 A nor 35B is present, the loop ends at 32; if only 35A is present, the loop ends at 33; if both 35A and 35B are present, the loop ends at 34). The AbM hypervariable regions represent a compromise between the Kabat CDRs and Chothia structural loops, and are used by Oxford Molecular’s AbM antibody modeling software (see, e.g., Antibody Engineering Vol. 2 (Kontermann and Diibel eds., 2d ed. 2010)). The “contact” hypervariable regions are based on an analysis of the available complex crystal structures. Another universal numbering system that has been developed and widely adopted is ImMunoGeneTics (IMGT) Information System® (Lafranc et al., Dev. Comp. Immunol. 27(l):55-77 (2003)). IMGT is an integrated information system specializing in immunoglobulins (IG), T-cell receptors (TCR), and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) of human and other vertebrates. Herein, the CDRs are referred to in terms of both the amino acid sequence and the location within the light or heavy chain. As the “location” of the CDRs within the structure of the immunoglobulin variable domain is conserved between species and present in structures called loops, by using numbering systems that align variable domain sequences according to structural features, CDR and framework residues are readily identified. This information can be used in grafting and replacement of CDR residues from immunoglobulins of one species into an acceptor framework from, typically, a human antibody. An additional numbering system (AHon) has been developed by Honegger and Pliickthun, J. Mol. Biol. 309: 657-70 (2001). Correspondence between the numbering system, including, for example, the Kabat numbering and the IMGT unique numbering system, is well known to one skilled in the art (see, e.g, Kabat, supra,' Chothia and Lesk, supra,' Martin, supra,' Lefranc et al., supra). The residues from each of these hypervariable regions or CDRs are exemplified in the table below.Exemplary CDRs According to Various Numbering Systems
[0050] The boundaries of a given CDR may vary depending on the scheme used for identification. Thus, unless otherwise specified, the terms “CDR” and “complementary determining region” of a given antibody or region thereof, such as a variable region, as well as individual CDRs (e.g., CDR-H1, CDR-H2) of the antibody or region thereof, should be understood to encompass the complementary determining region as defined by any of the known schemes described herein above. In some instances, the scheme for identification of a particular CDR or CDRs is specified, such as the CDR as defined by the IMGT, Kabat, Chothia, or Contact method. In other cases, the particular amino acid sequence of a CDR is given. It should be noted CDR regions may also be defined by a combination of various numbering systems, e.g., a combination of Kabat and Chothia numbering systems, or a combination of Kabat and IMGT numbering systems. Therefore, the term such as “a CDR1 as set forth in a specific VH” includes any CDR1 as defined by the exemplary CDR numbering systems described above, but is not limited thereby. Once a variable region (e.g., a VH or VL) is given, those skilled in the art would understand that CDRs within the region can be defined by different numbering systems or combinations thereof.
[0051] Hypervariable regions may comprise “extended hypervariable regions” as follows: 24-36 or 24-34 (LI), 46-56 or 50-56 (L2), and 89-97 or 89-96 (L3) in the VL, and 26-35 or 26- 35A (Hl), 50-65 or 49-65 (H2), and 93-102, 94-102, or 95-102 (H3) in the VH.
[0052] The term “framework” or “FR” refers to those variable region residues flanking the CDRs. FR residues are present, for example, in chimeric, humanized, human, domain antibodies, diabodies, linear antibodies, and bispecific antibodies. FR residues are those variable domain residues other than the hypervariable region residues or CDR residues.
[0053] The term “constant region” or “constant domain” refers to a carboxy terminal portion of the light and heavy chain which is not directly involved in binding of the antibody to antigen but exhibits various effector function, such as interaction with the Fc receptor. The term refers to the portion of an immunoglobulin molecule having a more conserved amino acid sequence relative to the other portion of the immunoglobulin, the variable region, which contains the antigen binding site. The constant region may contain the CHI, CH2, and CH3 regions of the heavy chain and the CL region of the light chain.
[0054] The term “Fc region” herein is used to define a C-terminal region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain, including, for example, native sequence Fc regions, recombinant Fc regions, and variant Fc regions. Although the boundaries of the Fc region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain might vary, the human IgG heavy chain Fc region is often defined to stretch from an amino acid residue at position Cys226, or from Pro230, to the carboxylterminus thereof. The C-terminal lysine (residue 447 according to the EU numbering system) of the Fc region may be removed, for example, during production or purification of the antibody, or by recombinantly engineering the nucleic acid encoding a heavy chain of the antibody. Accordingly, a composition of intact antibodies may comprise antibody populations with all K447 residues removed, antibody populations with no K447 residues removed, and antibody populations having a mixture of antibodies with and without the K447 residue. A “functional Fc region” possesses an “effector function” of a native sequence Fc region. Exemplary “effector functions” include Clq binding; CDC; Fc receptor binding; ADCC; phagocytosis; downregulation of cell surface receptors (e.g., B cell receptor), etc. Such effector functions generally require the Fc region to be combined with a binding region or binding domain (e.g., an antibody variable region or domain) and can be assessed using various assays known to those skilled in the art. A “variant Fc region” comprises an amino acid sequence which differs from that of a native sequence Fc region by virtue of at least one amino acid modification (e.g., substituting, addition, or deletion). In certain embodiments, the variant Fc region has at least one amino acid substitution compared to a native sequence Fc region or to the Fc region of a parent polypeptide, for example, from about one to about ten amino acid substitutions, or from about one to about five amino acid substitutions in a native sequence Fc region or in the Fc region of a parent polypeptide. The variant Fc region herein can possess at least about 80% homology witha native sequence Fc region and / or with an Fc region of a parent polypeptide, or at least about 90% homology therewith, for example, at least about 95% homology therewith.
[0055] The term “antigen binding domain” or “antigen binding region” refers to a binding agent or a portion of a binding agent as described herein (such as a protein or an antibody or fragment thereof) that binds an antigen. In some embodiments, an antigen binding region can comprise one or more fragments or portions of an intact antibody as described herein. The term “antigen binding domain” or “antigen binding region” can be an antibody fragment as described above.
[0056] The term “Fab” or “Fab region” refers to an antibody region that binds to antigens. A conventional IgG usually comprises two Fab regions, each residing on one of the two arms of the Y-shaped IgG structure. Each Fab region is typically composed of one variable region and one constant region of each of the heavy and the light chain. More specifically, the variable region and the constant region of the heavy chain in a Fab region are VH and CHI regions, and the variable region and the constant region of the light chain in a Fab region are VL and CL regions. The VH, CHI, VL, and CL in a Fab region can be arranged in various ways to confer an antigen binding capability according to the present disclosure. For example, VH and CHI regions can be on one polypeptide, and VL and CL regions can be on a separate polypeptide, similarly to a Fab region of a conventional IgG. Alternatively, VH, CHI, VL and CL regions can all be on the same polypeptide and oriented in different orders as described in more detail the sections below.
[0057] The term “single chain Fv” or “scFv” refers to a fusion protein comprising at least one antibody fragment comprising a light chain variable region (VL) and at least one antibody fragment comprising a heavy chain variable region (VH), wherein the VL and the VH are contiguously linked via a polypeptide linker, and capable of being expressed as a single chain polypeptide. Unless specified, as used herein, a scFv may have the VL and VH variable regions in either order, e.g., with respect to the N- terminal and C-terminal ends of the polypeptide, the scFv may comprise VL-linker-VH or may comprise VH-linker-VL.
[0058] “Stapled single chain Fv” or “spFv” refers to a scFv that comprises one or more disulfide bonds between the VH and the linker or the VL and the linker. Typically the spFv may comprise one disulfide bond between the VH and the linker, one disulfide bond between the VL and the linker, or two disulfide bonds between the VH and the linker and the VL and the linker.scFv molecules which comprise disulfide bonds between the VH and the VL are excluded from the term “spFv”.
[0059] ‘ ‘Anchor point” refers to a scFv VH or a VL framework Cysteine (Cys) residue that can be mutagenized to Cys without adverse effect to the overall scFv structure and is capable of forming a disulfide bond with a Cys residing in the scFv linker.
[0060] “Staple” refers to the scFv linker that contains one or two Cys residues which are capable of forming a disulfide bond with the anchor point Cys.
[0061] The term “multispecific” refers to a molecule, such as an antibody that specifically binds two or more distinct antigens or two or more distinct epitopes within the same antigen. Multispecific molecule may have cross-reactivity to other related antigens, for example to the same antigen from other species (homologs), such as human or monkey, for example Macaca fascicularis (cynomolgus, cyno) or Pan troglodytes, or may bind an epitope that is shared between two or more distinct antigens.
[0062] The term “bispecific” refers to a molecule (such as a protein or an antibody) that specifically binds two distinct antigens or two distinct epitopes within the same antigen. The bispecific molecule may have cross-reactivity to other related antigens, for example to the same antigen from other species (homologs), such as human or monkey, for example Macaca cynomolgus (cynomolgus, cyno) or Pan troglodytes, or may bind an epitope that is shared between two or more distinct antigens.
[0063] The terms “bispecific anti-ENPP3 / anti-CD3 antibody,” “ENPP3 / CD3 antibody,” “ENPP3 x CD3 antibody,” “anti-ENPP3 / anti-CD3 protein,” and the like refer to an antibody that binds ENPP3 and CD3, i.e., comprising at least one binding domain specifically binding ENPP3 (ENPP3 -binding domain) and at least one binding domain specifically binding CD3 (CD3- binding domain). The domains specifically binding ENPP3 and CD3 are typically VH / VL pairs. The bispecific ENPP3 x CD3 antibody may be monovalent in terms of its binding to either ENPP3 or CD3.
[0064] The term “monoclonal antibody” as used herein refers to a substantially homogenous antibody population involved in the highly specific recognition and binding of a single antigenic determinant or epitope. The term “monoclonal antibody” encompasses intact and full-length antibodies as well as antibody fragments (e.g., Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, Fv), single chain antibodies, scFv, fusion proteins comprising an antigen-binding antibody fragment, and any other modifiedimmunoglobulin molecule comprising at least one antigen-binding site. Furthermore, “monoclonal antibody” refers to such antibodies made by any number of techniques, including but not limited to, hybridoma production, phage library display, recombinant expression, and transgenic animals.
[0065] The terms “epitope” and “antigenic determinant” are used interchangeably herein and refer to that portion of an antigen or target capable of being recognized and bound by a particular antibody. When the antigen or target is a polypeptide, epitopes can be formed both from contiguous amino acids and noncontiguous amino acids juxtaposed by tertiary folding of the protein. Epitopes formed from contiguous amino acids (also referred to as linear epitopes) are typically retained upon protein denaturing, whereas epitopes formed by tertiary folding (also referred to as conformational epitopes) are typically lost upon protein denaturing. An epitope typically includes at least 3, and more usually, at least 5, 6, 7, or 8-10 amino acids in a unique spatial conformation. Epitopes can be predicted using any one of a large number of publicly available bioinformatic software tools. X-ray crystallography may be used to characterize an epitope on a target protein by analyzing the amino acid residue interactions of an antigen / antibody complex.
[0066] The term “chimeric antibody” refers to an antibody in which a portion of the heavy and / or light chain is derived from a first source or species, while the remainder of the heavy and / or light chain is derived from a different source or species.
[0067] The term “humanized antibody” as used herein refers to an antibody that comprises a human heavy chain variable region and a light chain variable region wherein the native CDR amino acid residues are replaced by residues from corresponding CDRs from a non-human antibody (e.g., mouse, rat, rabbit, or non-human primate), wherein the non-human antibody has the desired specificity, affinity, and / or activity. In some embodiments, one or more framework region amino acid residues of the human heavy chain or light chain variable regions are replaced by corresponding residues from the non-human antibody. Furthermore, humanized antibodies can comprise amino acid residues that are not found in the human antibody or in the non-human antibody. In some embodiments, these modifications are made to further refine and / or optimize antibody characteristics. In some embodiments, the humanized antibody comprises at least a portion of a human immunoglobulin constant region ( .g, CHI, CH2, CH3, Fc, and / or hinge region). 1
[0068] The term “human antibody” as used herein refers to an antibody that possesses an amino acid sequence that corresponds to an antibody produced by a human and / or an antibody that has been made using any of the techniques that are known to those of skill in the art for making human antibodies. These techniques include, but not limited to, phage display libraries, yeast display libraries, transgenic animals, recombinant protein production, and B-cell hybridoma technology.
[0069] The terms “polypeptide” and “peptide” and “protein” are used interchangeably herein and refer to polymers of amino acids of any length. The polymer may be linear or branched, it may comprise modified amino acids, and it may be interrupted by non-amino acids. The terms also encompass an amino acid polymer that has been modified naturally or by intervention; for example, disulfide bond formation, glycosylation, lipidation, acetylation, phosphorylation, or any other manipulation or modification. Also included within the definition are, for example, polypeptides containing one or more analogs of an amino acid, including but not limited to, unnatural amino acids, as well as other modifications known in the art. It is understood that, because the polypeptides of this disclosure may be based upon antibodies, the term “polypeptide” encompasses polypeptides as a single chain and polypeptides of two or more associated chains.
[0070] The terms “polynucleotide” and “nucleic acid” and “nucleic acid molecule” are used interchangeably herein and refer to polymers of nucleotides of any length, and include DNA and RNA. The nucleotides can be deoxyribonucleotides, ribonucleotides, modified nucleotides or bases, and / or their analogs, or any substrate that can be incorporated into a polymer by DNA or RNA polymerase.
[0071] The terms “identical” or percent “identity” in the context of two or more nucleic acids or polypeptides, refer to two or more sequences or subsequences that are the same or have a specified percentage of nucleotides or amino acid residues that are the same, when compared and aligned (introducing gaps, if necessary) for maximum correspondence, not considering any conservative amino acid substitutions as part of the sequence identity. The percent identity may be measured using sequence comparison software or algorithms or by visual inspection. Various algorithms and software that may be used to obtain alignments of amino acid or nucleotide sequences are well-known in the art. These include, but are not limited to, BLAST, ALIGN, Megalign, BestFit, GCG Wisconsin Package, and variants thereof. In some embodiments, twonucleic acids or polypeptides of the disclosure are substantially identical, meaning they have at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, and in some embodiments at least 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% nucleotide or amino acid identity, when compared and aligned for maximum correspondence, as measured using a sequence comparison algorithm or by visual inspection. In some embodiments, identity exists over a region of the sequences that is at least about 10, at least about 20, at least about 20-40, at least about 40-60, at least about 60-80 nucleotides or amino acids in length, or any integral value there between. In some embodiments, identity exists over a longer region than 60-80 nucleotides or amino acids, such as at least about 80-100 nucleotides or amino acids, and in some embodiments the sequences are substantially identical over the full length of the sequences being compared, for example, (i) the coding region of a nucleotide sequence or (ii) an amino acid sequence.
[0072] The term “vector” as used herein means a construct that is capable of delivering, and usually expressing, one or more gene(s) or sequence(s) of interest in a host cell. Examples of vectors include, but are not limited to, viral vectors, naked DNA or RNA expression vectors, plasmid, cosmid, or phage vectors, DNA or RNA expression vectors associated with cationic condensing agents, and DNA or RNA expression vectors encapsulated in liposomes.
[0073] The term “isolated” as used herein refers to a polypeptide, soluble protein, antibody, polynucleotide, vector, cell, or composition that is in a form not found in nature. An “isolated” antibody is substantially free of material from the cellular source from which it is derived. In some embodiments, isolated polypeptides, soluble proteins, antibodies, polynucleotides, vectors, cells, or compositions are those that have been purified to a degree that they are no longer in a form in which they are found in nature. In some embodiments, a polypeptide, soluble protein, antibody, polynucleotide, vector, cell, or composition that is isolated is substantially pure. A polypeptide, soluble protein, antibody, polynucleotide, vector, cell, or composition can be isolated from a natural source (e.g., tissue) or from a source such as an engineered cell line.
[0074] The term “substantially pure” as used herein refers to material that is at least 50% pure (i.e., free from contaminants), at least 90% pure, at least 95% pure, at least 98% pure, or at least 99% pure.
[0075] The term “subject” refers to any animal (e.g., a mammal), including, but not limited to, humans, non-human primates, canines, felines, rabbits, rodents, and the like.

Examples of such immunogenic proteins include, but are not limited to, keyhole limpet hemocyanin, serum albumin, bovine thyroglobulin, and soybean trypsin inhibitor. Examples of adjuvants which may be employed include Ribi, CpG, Poly 1C, Freund’s complete adjuvant, and MPL-TDM adjuvant (monophosphoryl Lipid A, synthetic trehalose dicorynomycolate). The immunization protocol may be selected by one skilled in the art without undue experimentation. The mammal can then be bled, and the serum assayed for ENPP3antibody titer. If desired, the mammal can be boosted until the antibody titer increases or plateaus. Additionally or alternatively, lymphocytes may be obtained from the immunized animal for fusion and preparation of monoclonal antibodies from hybridoma as described below.7.5.2 Monoclonal Antibodies[000122] The antibodies of the present disclosure may alternatively be monoclonal antibodies. Monoclonal antibodies may be made using the hybridoma method first described by Kohler et aL, 1975, Nature 256:495-97, or may be made by recombinant DNA methods (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,567).[000123] In the hybridoma method, a mouse or other appropriate host animal, such as a hamster, is immunized as described above to elicit lymphocytes that produce or are capable of producing antibodies that will specifically bind to the protein used for immunization. Alternatively, lymphocytes may be immunized in vitro. In some embodiments, the immunizing antigen is a human protein or a fragment thereof. In some embodiments, the immunizing antigen is a mouse protein or a fragment thereof. In some embodiments, the immunizing antigen is a cyno protein or a fragment thereof. After immunization, lymphocytes are isolated and then fused with a myeloma cell line using a suitable fusing agent, such as polyethylene glycol, to form a hybridoma cell (Goding, Monoclonal Antibodies: Principles and Practice 59-103 (1986)).[000124] The hybridoma cells thus prepared are seeded and grown in a suitable culture medium which, in certain embodiments, contains one or more substances that inhibit the growth or survival of the unfused, parental myeloma cells (also referred to as fusion partner). For example, if the parental myeloma cells lack the enzyme hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT or HPRT), the selective culture medium for the hybridomas typically will include hypoxanthine, aminopterin, and thymidine (HAT medium), which prevent the growth of HGPRT-deficient cells.[000125] Exemplary fusion partner myeloma cells are those that fuse efficiently, support stable high-level production of antibody by the selected antibody-producing cells, and are sensitive to a selective medium that selects against the unfused parental cells. Exemplary myeloma cell lines are murine myeloma lines, such as SP-2 and derivatives, for example, X63-Ag8-653 cells available from the American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA), and those derived from MOPC-21 and MPC-11 mouse tumors available from the Salk Institute Cell Distribution Center (San Diego, CA). Human myeloma and mouse-human heteromyeloma cell lines also have beendescribed for the production of human monoclonal antibodies (Kozbor, 1984, Immunol. 133:3001-05; and Brodeur et aL, Monoclonal Antibody Production Techniques and Applications 51-63 (1987)).[000126] Culture medium in which hybridoma cells are growing is assayed for production of monoclonal antibodies directed against the antigen. The binding specificity of monoclonal antibodies produced by hybridoma cells is determined by immunoprecipitation or by an in vitro binding assay, such as RIA or ELISA. The binding affinity of the monoclonal antibody can, for example, be determined by the Scatchard analysis described in Munson et al., 1980, Anal. Biochem. 107:220-39.[000127] Once hybridoma cells that produce antibodies of the desired specificity, affinity, and / or activity are identified, the clones may be subcloned by limiting dilution procedures and grown by standard methods (Goding, supra . Suitable culture media for this purpose include, for example, DMEM or RPMI-1640 medium. In addition, the hybridoma cells may be grown in vivo as ascites tumors in an animal, for example, by i.p. injection of the cells into mice.[000128] The monoclonal antibodies secreted by the subclones are suitably separated from the culture medium, ascites fluid, or serum by conventional antibody purification procedures such as, for example, affinity chromatography (e.g., using protein A or protein G-Sepharose) or ionexchange chromatography, hydroxylapatite chromatography, gel electrophoresis, dialysis, etc. [000129] DNA encoding the monoclonal antibodies is readily isolated and sequenced using conventional procedures (e.g., by using oligonucleotide probes that are capable of binding specifically to genes encoding the heavy and light chains of murine antibodies). The hybridoma cells can serve as a source of such DNA. Once isolated, the DNA may be placed into expression vectors, which are then transfected into host cells, such as E. coli cells, simian COS cells, Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells, or myeloma cells that do not otherwise produce antibody protein, to obtain the synthesis of monoclonal antibodies in the recombinant host cells. Review articles on recombinant expression in bacteria of DNA encoding the antibody include Skerra et aL, 1993, Curr. Opinion in Immunol. 5:256-62 and Pliickthun, 1992, Immunol. Revs. 130:151-88.[000130] Table 2In a further embodiment, monoclonal antibodies or antibody fragments can be isolated from antibody phage libraries generated using the techniques described in, for example, Antibody Phage Display: Methods and Protocols (O’Brien and Aitken eds., 2002). In principle,synthetic antibody clones are selected by screening phage libraries containing phages that display various fragments of antibody variable region (Fv) fused to phage coat protein. Such phage libraries are screened against the desired antigen. Clones expressing Fv fragments capable of binding to the desired antigen are adsorbed to the antigen and thus separated from the nonbinding clones in the library. The binding clones are then eluted from the antigen and can be further enriched by additional cycles of antigen adsorption / elution.[000131] Variable domains can be displayed functionally on phage, either as single-chain Fv (scFv) fragments, in which VH and VL are covalently linked through a short, flexible peptide, or as Fab fragments, in which they are each fused to a constant domain and interact non-covalently, as described, for example, in Winter et al. , 1994, Ann. Rev. Immunol. 12:433-55.[000132] Repertoires of VH and VL genes can be separately cloned by PCR and recombined randomly in phage libraries, which can then be searched for antigen-binding clones as described in Winter et al. , supra. Libraries from immunized sources provide high-affinity antibodies to the immunogen without the requirement of constructing hybridomas. Alternatively, the naive repertoire can be cloned to provide a single source of human antibodies to a wide range of non-self and also self antigens without any immunization as described by Griffiths et al., 1993, EMBO J 12:725-34. Finanaivenaive libraries can also be made synthetically by cloning the unrearranged V-gene segments from stem cells, and using PCR primers containing random sequence to encode the highly variable CDR3 regions and to accomplish rearrangement in vitro as described, for example, by Hoogenboom and Winter, 1992, J. Mol. Biol. 227:381-88.[000133] Screening of the libraries can be accomplished by various techniques known in the art. For example, ENPP3 (e.g., a ENPP3 polypeptide, fragment, or epitope) can be used to coat the wells of adsorption plates, expressed on host cells affixed to adsorption plates or used in cell sorting, conjugated to biotin for capture with streptavidin-coated beads, or used in any other method for panning display libraries. The selection of antibodies with slow dissociation kinetics (e.g., good binding affinities) can be promoted by use of long washes and monovalent phage display as described in Bass et al., 1990, Proteins 8:309-14 and WO 92 / 09690, and by use of a low coating density of antigen as described in Marks etal., 1992, Biotechnol. 10:779-83.[000134] Anti-ENPP3 and anti-CD3 antibodies can be obtained by designing a suitable antigen screening procedure to select for the phage clone of interest followed by construction of a fulllength anti-ENPP3 or anti-CD3 antibody clone using VH and / or VL sequences (e.g., the Fv sequences), or various CDR sequences from VH and VL sequences, from the phage clone of interest and suitable constant region (e.g., Fc) sequences described in Kabat et al., supra. [000135] In another embodiment, anti-ENPP3 or anti-CD3 antibody is generated by using methods as described in Bowers etal., 2011, Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 108:20455-60, e.g., the SHM-XHL™ platform (AnaptysBio, San Diego, CA). Briefly, in this approach, a fully human library of IgGs is constructed in a mammalian cell line (e.g., HEK293) as a starting library. Mammalian cells displaying immunoglobulin that binds to a target peptide or epitope are selected (e.g., by FACS sorting), then activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID)-triggered somatic hypermutation is reproduced in vitro to expand diversity of the initially selected pool of antibodies. After several rounds of affinity maturation by coupling mammalian cell surface display with in vitro somatic hypermutation, high affinity, high specificity anti-ENPP3 antibodies are generated. Further methods that can be used to generate antibody libraries and / or antibody affinity maturation are disclosed, e.g., in U.S. Patent Nos. 8,685,897 and 8,603,930, and U.S. Publ. Nos. 2014 / 0170705, 2014 / 0094392, 2012 / 0028301, 2011 / 0183855, and 2009 / 0075378, each of which are incorporated herein by reference.7.5.3 Humanized Antibodies[000136] In some embodiments, bispecific antibodies or antigen binding fragments provided herein can be humanized bispecific antibodies or antigen binding fragments that bind ENPP3 and CD3, including human and / or cynomolgus ENPP3 and CD3. For example, humanized antibodies of the present disclosure may comprise one or more CDRs as shown in Table 1 and Table 2. Various methods for humanizing non-human antibodies are known in the art. For example, a humanized antibody can have one or more amino acid residues introduced into it from a source that is non-human. These non-human amino acid residues are often referred to as “import” residues, which are typically taken from an “import” variable domain. Humanization may be performed, for example, following the method of Jones et al., 1986, Nature 321:522-25; Riechmann et al. , 1988, Nature 332:323-27; and Verhoeyen et al., 1988, Science 239:1534-36), by substituting hypervariable region sequences for the corresponding sequences of a human antibody.[000137] In some cases, the humanized antibodies are constructed by CDR grafting, in which the amino acid sequences of the six CDRs of the parent non-human antibody (e.g., rodent) aregrafted onto a human antibody framework. For example, Padlan et al. determined that only about one third of the residues in the CDRs actually contact the antigen, and termed these the “specificity determining residues,” or SDRs (Padlan etal., 1995, FASEB J. 9: 133-39). In the technique of SDR grafting, only the SDR residues are grafted onto the human antibody framework (see, e.g., Kashmiri et al., 2005, Methods 36:25-34).[000138] The choice of human variable domains, both light and heavy, to be used in making the humanized antibodies can be important to reduce antigenicity. For example, according to the so-called “best- fit” method, the sequence of the variable domain of a non-human (e.g., rodent) antibody is screened against the entire library of known human variable-domain sequences. The human sequence that is closest to that of the rodent may be selected as the human framework for the humanized antibody (Sims et al., 1993, J. Immunol. 151 :2296-308; and Chothia et al., 1987, J. Mol. Biol. 196:901-17). Another method uses a particular framework derived from the consensus sequence of all human antibodies of a particular subgroup of light or heavy chains. The same framework may be used for several different humanized antibodies (Carter et al. , 1992, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89:4285-89; and Presta et al., 1993, J. Immunol. 151:2623-32). In some cases, the framework is derived from the consensus sequences of the most abundant human subclasses, VL6 subgroup I (VL6I) and VH subgroup III (VHIII). In another method, human germline genes are used as the source of the framework regions.[000139] In an alternative paradigm based on comparison of CDRs, called superhumanization, FR homology is irrelevant. The method consists of comparison of the non-human sequence with the functional human germline gene repertoire. Those genes encoding the same or closely related canonical structures to the murine sequences are then selected. Next, within the genes sharing the canonical structures with the non-human antibody, those with highest homology within the CDRs are chosen as FR donors. Finally, the non-human CDRs are grafted onto these FRs (see, e.g., Tan etal., 2002, J. Immunol. 169:1119-25).[000140] It is further generally desirable that antibodies be humanized with retention of their affinity for the antigen and other favorable biological properties. To achieve this goal, according to one method, humanized antibodies are prepared by a process of analysis of the parental sequences and various conceptual humanized products using three-dimensional models of the parental and humanized sequences. Three-dimensional immunoglobulin models are commonly available and are familiar to those skilled in the art. Computer programs are available whichillustrate and display probable three-dimensional conformational structures of selected candidate immunoglobulin sequences. These include, for example, WAM (Whitelegg and Rees, 2000, Protein Eng. 13:819-24), Modeller (Sail and Blundell, 1993, J. Mol. Biol. 234:779-815), and Swiss PDB Viewer (Guex and Peitsch, 1997, Electrophoresis 18:2714-23). Inspection of these displays permits analysis of the likely role of the residues in the functioning of the candidate immunoglobulin sequence, e.g., the analysis of residues that influence the ability of the candidate immunoglobulin to bind its antigen. In this way, FR residues can be selected and combined from the recipient and import sequences so that the desired antibody characteristic, such as increased affinity for the target antigen(s), is achieved. In general, the hypervariable region residues are directly and most substantially involved in influencing antigen binding.[000141] Another method for antibody humanization is based on a metric of antibody humanness termed Human String Content (HSC). This method compares the mouse sequence with the repertoire of human germline genes, and the differences are scored as HSC. The target sequence is then humanized by maximizing its HSC rather than using a global identity measure to generate multiple diverse humanized variants (Lazar et al. , 2007, Mol. Immunol. 44:1986-98). [000142] In addition to the methods described above, empirical methods may be used to generate and select humanized antibodies. These methods include those that are based upon the generation of large libraries of humanized variants and selection of the best clones using enrichment technologies or high throughput screening techniques. Antibody variants may be isolated from phage, ribosome, and yeast display libraries as well as by bacterial colony screening (see, e.g., Hoogenboom, 2005, Nat. Biotechnol. 23:1105-16; Dufner et al., 2006, Trends Biotechnol. 24:523-29; Feldhaus et al., 2003, Nat. Biotechnol. 21: 163-70; and Schlapschy et al., 2004, Protein Eng. Des. Sei. 17:847-60).[000143] In the FR library approach, a collection of residue variants are introduced at specific positions in the FR followed by screening of the library to select the FR that best supports the grafted CDR. The residues to be substituted may include some or all of the “Vernier” residues identified as potentially contributing to CDR structure (see, e.g., Foote and Winter, 1992, J. Mol. Biol. 224:487-99), or from the more limited set of target residues identified by Baca et al. (1997, J. Biol. Chem. 272: 10678-84).[000144] In FR shuffling, whole FRs are combined with the non-human CDRs instead of creating combinatorial libraries of selected residue variants (see, e.g., Dall’Acqua et al., 2005,Methods 36:43-60). The libraries may be screened for binding in a two-step process, first humanizing VL, followed by VH. Alternatively, a one-step FR shuffling process may be used. Such a process has been shown to be more efficient than the two-step screening, as the resulting antibodies exhibited improved biochemical and physicochemical properties including enhanced expression, increased affinity, and thermal stability (see, e.g., Damschroder et al., 2007, Mol. Immunol. 44:3049-60).[000145] The “humaneering” method is based on experimental identification of essential minimum specificity determinants (MSDs) and is based on sequential replacement of non-human fragments into libraries of human FRs and assessment of binding. It begins with regions of the CDR3 of non-human VH and VL chains and progressively replaces other regions of the non-human antibody into the human FRs, including the CDR1 and CDR2 of both VH and VL. This methodology typically results in epitope retention and identification of antibodies from multiple subclasses with distinct human V-segment CDRs. Humaneering allows for isolation of antibodies that are 91-96% homologous to human germline gene antibodies (see, e.g., Alfenito, Cambridge Healthtech Institute’s Third Annual PEGS, The Protein Engineering Summit, 2007). [000146] The “human engineering” method involves altering a non-human antibody or antibody fragment, such as a mouse or chimeric antibody or antibody fragment, by making specific changes to the amino acid sequence of the antibody so as to produce a modified antibody with reduced immunogenicity in a human that nonetheless retains the desirable binding properties of the original non-human antibodies. Generally, the technique involves classifying amino acid residues of a non-human (e.g., mouse) antibody as “low risk,” “moderate risk,” or “high risk” residues. The classification is performed using a global risk / reward calculation that evaluates the predicted benefits of making particular substitution (e.g., for immunogenicity in humans) against the risk that the substitution will affect the resulting antibody’s folding. The particular human amino acid residue to be substituted at a given position (e.g., low or moderate risk) of a non-human (e.g., mouse) antibody sequence can be selected by aligning an amino acid sequence from the non-human antibody’s variable regions with the corresponding region of a specific or consensus human antibody sequence. The amino acid residues at low or moderate risk positions in the non-human sequence can be substituted for the corresponding residues in the human antibody sequence according to the alignment. Techniques for making human engineered proteins are described in greater detail in Studnicka et al., 1994, Protein Engineering 7:805-14;U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,766,886; 5,770,196; 5,821,123; and 5,869,619; and PCT Publication WO 93 / 11794.7.5.4 Human Antibodies[000147] Human ENPP3 -binding and CD3 -binding domains can be constructed by combining Fv clone variable domain sequence(s) selected from human-derived phage display libraries with known human constant domain sequences(s). Alternatively, human monoclonal ENPP3-binding and CD3-binding domains of the present disclosure can be made by the hybridoma method. Human myeloma and mouse- human heteromyeloma cell lines for the production of human monoclonal antibodies have been described, for example, by Kozbor, 1984, J. Immunol.133:3001-05; Brodeur etal., Monoclonal Antibody Production Techniques and Applications 51- 63 (1987); and Boerner et al., 1991, J. Immunol. 147:86-95.[000148] It is also possible to produce transgenic animals (e.g., mice) that are capable, upon immunization, of producing a full repertoire of human antibodies in the absence of endogenous immunoglobulin production. Transgenic mice that express human antibody repertoires have been used to generate high-affinity human sequence monoclonal antibodies against a wide variety of potential drug targets (see, e.g., Jakobovits, A., 1995, Curr. Opin. Biotechnol. 6(5):561-66; Bruggemann and Taussing, 1997, Curr. Opin. Biotechnol. 8(4):455-58; U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,075,181 and 6,150,584; and Lonberg et al., 2005, Nature Biotechnol. 23: 1117-25).[000149] Alternatively, the human antibody may be prepared via immortalization of human B lymphocytes producing an antibody directed against a target antigen (e.g., such B lymphocytes may be recovered from an individual or may have been immunized in vitro) (see, e.g, Cole et al., Monoclonal Antibodies and Cancer Therapy (1985); Boerner et al., 1991, J. Immunol. 147(l):86-95; and U.S. Pat. No. 5,750,373).[000150] Gene shuffling can also be used to derive human antibodies from non-human, for example, rodent, antibodies, where the human antibody has similar affinities and specificities to the starting non-human antibody. According to this method, which is also called “epitope imprinting” or “guided selection,” either the heavy or light chain variable region of a non-human antibody fragment obtained by phage display techniques as described herein is replaced with a repertoire of human V domain genes, creating a population of non-human chain / human chain scFv or Fab chimeras. Selection with antigen results in isolation of a non-human chain / human chain chimeric scFv or Fab wherein the human chain restores the antigen binding site destroyedupon removal of the corresponding non-human chain in the primary phage display clone (e.g., the epitope guides (imprints) the choice of the human chain partner). When the process is repeated in order to replace the remaining non-human chain, a human antibody is obtained (see, e.g., PCT WO 93 / 06213; and Osbourn etal., 2005, Methods 36:61-68). Unlike traditional humanization of non-human antibodies by CDR grafting, this technique provides completely human antibodies, which have no FR or CDR residues of non-human origin. Examples of guided selection to humanize mouse antibodies towards cell surface antigens include the folate-binding protein present on ovarian cancer cells (see, e.g., Figini et al., 1998, Cancer Res. 58:991-96) and CD147, which is highly expressed on hepatocellular carcinoma (see, e.g, Bao et al., 2005, Cancer Biol. Ther. 4: 1374-80).[000151] A potential disadvantage of the guided selection approach is that shuffling of one antibody chain while keeping the other constant could result in epitope drift. In order to maintain the epitope recognized by the non-human antibody, CDR retention can be applied (see, e.g., Klimka et al., 2000, Br. J. Cancer. 83:252-60; and Beiboer et al., 2000, J. Mol. Biol. 296:833-49). In this method, the non-human HCDR3 is commonly retained, as this CDR may be at the center of the antigen-binding site and may be the most important region of the antibody for antigen recognition. In some instances, however, HCDR3 and LCDR3, as well as HCDR2, LCDR2, and LCDR1 of the non-human antibody may be retained.7.5.5 Antibody Fragments[000152] The present disclosure provides antibodies and antibody fragments that bind to ENPP3. In certain circumstances there are advantages of using antibody fragments, rather than whole antibodies. The smaller size of the fragments allows for rapid clearance, and may lead to improved access to cells, tissues, or organs. For a review of certain antibody fragments, see Hudson etal., 2003, Nature Med. 9: 129-34.[000153] Various techniques have been developed for the production of antibody fragments. Traditionally, these fragments were derived via proteolytic digestion of intact antibodies (see, e.g., Morimoto et al., 1992, J. Biochem. Biophys. Methods 24:107-17; and Brennan et al., 1985, Science 229:81-83). However, these fragments can now be produced directly by recombinant host cells. Fab, Fv, scFv and spFv antibody fragments can all be expressed in and secreted from E. colt or yeast cells, thus allowing the facile production of large amounts of these fragments. Antibody fragments can be isolated from the antibody phage libraries discussed above.Alternatively, Fab’-SH fragments can be directly recovered from E. coli and chemically coupled to form F(ab’)2 fragments (Carter et al., 1992, Bio / Technology 10: 163-67). According to another approach, F(ab’)2 fragments can be isolated directly from recombinant host cell culture. Fab and F(ab’)2 fragment with increased in vivo half-life comprising salvage receptor binding epitope residues are described in, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 5,869,046. Other techniques for the production of antibody fragments will be apparent to the skilled practitioner. In certain embodiments, an antibody is a single chain Fv fragment (scFv) (see, e.g., WO 93 / 16185; U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,571,894 and 5,587,458). In certain embodiments, an antibody is a stapled single chain Fv fragment (spFv) (see, e.g., WO2021030657). Fv and scFv have intact combining sites that are devoid of constant regions; thus, they may be suitable for reduced nonspecific binding during in vivo use. scFv fusion proteins may be constructed to yield fusion of an effector protein at either the amino or the carboxy terminus of an scFv (See, e.g., Borrebaeck ed., supra). The antibody fragment may also be a “linear antibody,” for example, as described in the references cited above. Such linear antibodies may be multi- specific, such as bispecific.[000154] Antibodies provided herein include, but are not limited to, immunoglobulin molecules and immunologically active portions of immunoglobulin molecules, for example, molecules that contain an antigen binding site that bind to an ENPP3 or CD3 epitope. The immunoglobulin molecules provided herein can be of any class (e.g., IgG, IgE, IgM, IgD, and IgA) or any subclass (e.g., IgGl, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgAl, and IgA2) of immunoglobulin molecule.[000155] Variants and derivatives of antibodies include antibody functional fragments that retain the ability to bind to a ENPP3 epitope. In some embodiments, a CD3 -binding domain is an antigen binding fragment of an antibody. In some embodiments, the CD3 -binding domain is a portion of an intact antibody. In some embodiments, the CD3 -binding domain is stapled single chain antibody molecules(e.g., spFv).[000156] In some embodiments, the CD3s binding spFv comprises a VH comprising the sequence of SEQ ID NO:47 and a VL comprising the sequence of SEQ ID NO:48. In some embodiments, the spFv comprises an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:49.Table 3: CD3s-Binding spFv7.6 ENPP3 x CD3 Bispecific Antibodies[000157] In some embodiments, the ENPP3 -binding domain comprises an Fab. In some embodiments, the CD3 -binding domain comprise an spFv. In some embodiments, the CD3- binding domain comprises an spFv-Fc. In some embodiments, the ENPP3 -binding domain comprises an Fab, and the CD3-binding domain comprises an spFv. In some embodiments, the ENPP3-binding domain comprises an Fab and the CD3-binding domain comprises an spFv-Fc. [000158] In some embodiments, the ENPP3 -binding domain is fused or conjugated to a first immunoglobulin (Ig) constant region or a fragment of the first Ig constant region and / or the CD3 -binding domain is fused or conjugated to a second immunoglobulin (Ig) constant region or a fragment of the second Ig constant region.[000159] In some embodiments, the fragment of the first Ig constant region and / or the fragment of the second Ig constant region comprises a Fc region. In some embodiments, the fragment of the first Ig constant region and / or the fragment of the second Ig constant region comprises a CH2 domain. In some embodiments, the fragment of the first Ig constant region and / or the fragment of the second Ig constant region comprises a CH3 domain. In some embodiments, the fragment of the first Ig constant region and / or the fragment of the second Ig constant region comprises the CH2 domain and the CH3 domain.[000160] In some embodiments, the fragment of the first Ig constant region and / or the fragment of the second Ig constant region comprises at least portion of a hinge, the CH2 domain and theCH3 domain. In some embodiments, the fragment of the Ig constant region comprises the hinge, the CH2 domain and the CH3 domain.[000161] In some embodiments, the first Ig constant region or the fragment of the first Ig constant region and the second Ig constant region or the fragment of the second Ig constant region is an IgGl isotype.[000162] The first Ig constant region or the fragment of the first Ig constant region and the second Ig constant region or the fragment of the second Ig constant region can further be engineered as described herein. In some embodiments, the first Ig constant region or the fragment of the first Ig constant region and the second Ig constant region or the fragment of the second Ig constant region comprises at least one mutation that results in reduced binding of the bispecific antibody to a FcyR.[000163] In some embodiments, the at least one mutation that results in reduced binding of the bispecific antibody to the FcyR is L234A / L235A / D265S, wherein residue numbering is according to the EU index.[000164] In some embodiments, the bispecific protein comprises at least one mutation in a CH3 domain of the first Ig constant region or in a CH3 domain of the fragment of the first Ig constant region and / or at least one mutation in a CH3 domain of the second Ig constant region or in a CH3 domain of the fragment of the second Ig constant region. In some embodiments, the at least one mutation in a CH3 domain of the first Ig constant region or in a CH3 domain of the fragment of the first Ig constant region and / or at least one mutation in a CH3 domain of the second Ig constant region or in a CH3 domain of the fragment of the second Ig constant region is selected from the group consisting of T366W and T366S / L368A / Y407V, wherein residue numbering is according to the EU index.[000165] In some embodiments, the bispecific binding proteins provided herein are antibodies having a full-length antibody structure. “Full length antibody” refers to an antibody having two full length antibody heavy chains and two full length antibody light chains. A full-length antibody heavy chain (HC) consists of well-known heavy chain variable and constant domains VH, CHI, hinge, CH2, and CH3. A full-length antibody light chain (LC) consists of well-known light chain variable and constant domains VL and CL. The full-length antibody can be lacking the C-terminal lysine (K) in either one or both heavy chains. “Fab-arm” or “half molecule” refers to one heavy chain-light chain pair that specifically binds an antigen.[000166] Full length bispecific antibodies can be generated for example using Fab arm exchange (or half molecule exchange) between two monospecific bivalent antibodies by introducing substitutions at the heavy chain CH3 interface in each half molecule to favor heterodimer formation of two antibody half molecules having distinct specificity either in vitro in cell-free environment or using co-expression. The Fab arm exchange reaction is the result of a disulfide-bond isomerization reaction and dissociation-association of CH3 domains. The heavy chain disulfide bonds in the hinge regions of the parental monospecific antibodies are reduced. The resulting free cysteines of one of the parental monospecific antibodies form an inter heavychain disulfide bond with cysteine residues of a second parental monospecific antibody molecule and simultaneously CH3 domains of the parental antibodies release and reform by dissociationassociation. The CH3 domains of the Fab arms can be engineered to favor heterodimerization over homodimerization. The resulting product is a bispecific antibody having two Fab arms or half molecules which each bind a distinct epitope, i.e. an epitope on ENPP3 and an epitope on CD3.[000167] ‘ ‘Homodimerization” refers to an interaction of two heavy chains having identical CH3 amino acid sequences. “Homodimer” refers to an antibody having two heavy chains with identical CH3 amino acid sequences. “Heterodimerization” refers to an interaction of two heavy chains having non-identical CH3 amino acid sequences. “Heterodimer” refers to an antibody having two heavy chains with non-identical CH3 amino acid sequences.[000168] The “knob-in-hole” strategy (see, e.g., International Publication No. WO 2006 / 028936) can be used to generate full length bispecific antibodies. Briefly, selected amino acids forming the interface of the CH3 domains in human IgG can be mutated at positions affecting CH3 domain interactions to promote heterodimer formation. An amino acid with a small side chain (hole) is introduced into a heavy chain of an antibody specifically binding a first antigen and an amino acid with a large side chain (knob) is introduced into a heavy chain of an antibody specifically binding a second antigen. After co-expression of the two antibodies, a heterodimer is formed as a result of the preferential interaction of the heavy chain with a “hole” with the heavy chain with a “knob.” Exemplary CH3 substitution pairs forming a knob and a hole are (expressed as modified position in the first CH3 domain of the first heavy chain / modified position in the second CH3 domain of the second heavy chain): T366W / T366S L368 A_Y407V.[000169] The CrossMAb technology can be used to generate full length bispecific antibodies provided herein. CrossMAbs, in addition to utilizing the “knob-in-hole” strategy to promoter Fab arm exchange, have in one of the half arms the CHI and the CL domains exchanged to ensure correct light chain pairing of the resulting bispecific antibody (see e.g. U.S. Patent No. 8,242,247).[000170] Other cross-over strategies can be used to generate full length bispecific antibodies provided herein by exchanging variable or constant, or both domains between the heavy chain and the light chain or within the heavy chain in the bispecific antibodies, either in one or both arms. These exchanges include for example VH-CH1 with VL-CL, VH with VL, CH3 with CL and CH3 with CHI as described in International Publication Nos. WO 2009 / 080254, WO 2009 / 080251, WO 2009 / 018386 and WO 2009 / 080252.[000171] LUZ-Y technology can be utilized to generate bispecific antibodies provided herein. In this technology, a leucine zipper is added into the C terminus of the CH3 domains to drive the heterodimer assembly from parental mAbs that is removed post-purification as described in Wramk et al., (2012) J Biol Chem 287(52): 42221-9.[000172] SEEDbody technology can be utilized to generate bispecific antibodies provided herein.

Briefly, Ablexis Kappa mice were immunized using a plasmid comprising full length human ENPP3 DNA sequence. B cells were recovered following standard protocols, and the supernatants from the sorted B cells were screened by protein MSD for binding to human ENPP3 (Uniprot ID: 014638). Fifteen binders were selected based on binding to human ENPP3. Eleven binders were selected for further characterization (Table 1). The binding affinities for select binders to human and cynomolgus monkey ENPP3 are shown in Table 5.Table 5: Binding affinities of select binders to human and cyno ENPP3.[000238] Next, the binders were assessed for, among other things, CDR sequence similarity and biophysics characteristics like binding affinity to human and cyno ENPP3, hydrophobicity, non-specific binding, CIC, conformational stability and SPR based binding to other ENPP family members.Example 2. Generation and characterization of bi-specific ENPP3 x CD3 antibodies. Engineering of the ENPP3 x CD3 antibodies[000239] The ENPP3 binding arm of ENPP3 x CD3 bispecific antibodies was engineered to comprise an anti-ENPP3 Fab arm derived from ENPP3 mAb described in Example 1. To prepare the bispecific antibody, the VH1 and VL1 of the ENPP3 mAb were engineered in VH1- CHl-hinge-CH2-CH3 (Heavy Chain 1, HC1) and VL1-CL (Light Chain 1, LC1) formats respectively and expressed as IgGl. The Fc silencing mutation L234A / L235A / D265S were introduced in the Fc region of HC1. Mutations designed to promote selective heterodimerization (“hole” mutation T366S, L368A and Y407V) were also engineered in the Fc domain of HC1. The parental anti-ENPP3 variable regions were formatted as a Fab in the bispecific antibody.[000240] The CD3 binding arms of ENPP3 x CD3 antibodies were engineered using VH and VL domains of CD3B2030-N106A antibody, disclosed in W02022 / 201053, which isincorporated herein by reference in its entirety. The sequences of CD3B2030-N106A antibody are shown in Table 5 A. The CD3B2030-N106A is a low-medium affinity CD3 binding arm. The VH and VL of the CD3B2030-N106A antibody were engineered as either a scFv domain or a stabilized (or stapled) scFv domain herein described as spFv, in VL-linker-VH-Fc orientation.[000241] The generation of the scFv fragment derived from the CD3B2030-N106A antibody is described in W02022 / 201053, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.[000242] The stabilized scFv (spFv) was generated using the VH and the VL of CD3B2030- N106A binder by engineering disulfide bonds between the VH and the linker and between the and the linker. Two structurally conserved surface exposed framework positions (anchor points) that are not involved in antigen binding, were identified, one on the VH at position Hl 05 and one on the VL at position L42 (Chothia numbering), and mutated into cysteine (Cys) residues to generate the VH of SEQ ID NO:47 and VL of SEQ ID NO:48. A flexible linker of sequence GGGSGGSGGCPPCGGSGG (SEQ ID NO: 62) comprising two Cys residues was used to conjugate the VL and the VH in the VL-linker-VH (LH) format yielding the spFv of SEQ ID NO:49. The distance and location of the Cys residues of the linker and the Cys residues of the VH and the VL is critical for the formation of the disulfide bonds between the Cys residues of the Linker and each anchor point of the VH and the VL.[000243] The stapled scFv in the VL-Linker-VH was further engineered into a Heavy Chain 2 (HC2) and expressed as IgGl . Additionally, the Fc silencing mutation L234A / L235A / D265S and the heterodimerization (“knob” mutation T366W) were engineered in the Fc domain of HC2.Example 3: Characterization of bi-specific ENPP3 x CD3 antibodies[000244] Bispecific antibody (BsAb) NPP3B815 was further characterized. The NPP3B815 antibody comprises an anti-CD3 single-chain fragment variable featuring a “stapled” linker (spFv) on heavy chain 1 (HC1), derived from CD3B2030 N106A CD3 binder. The spFv comprises a linker having a central “C1PPC2” motif (SEQ ID NO: 63) wherein Ci forms a disulfide bond with (in the case of the spFv in the “light-heavy” orientation) an engineered cysteine at position L42 (Chothia numbering) in the variable light domain and C2 forms a disulfide bond with an engineered cysteine at position Hl 05 in the variable heavy domain. Heavy chain 1 comprises the “knob” mutation: T366W. Heavy chain 2 (HC2) comprises the anti-ENPP3 Fab-region, derived from the NPP3B56 antibody and the “hole” mutations: T366S,L368A, Y407V. Table 1 shows CDR and VH / VL amino acid sequences for the ENPP3 binding arm. Table 3A shows CDR and VH / VL amino acid sequences for the CD3 binding arm. Table 5 A shows full length sequences of the NPP3B815 antibody. Table 5B shows DNA sequences encoding the NPP3B815 antibody.[000245] NPP3B815 was assessed for, among other things, purity, binding affinity, thermal stability, solubility, serum stability, nonspecific binding, viscosity, and aggregation potential. NPP3B815 maintained high purity, showed no conformational changes after 2 weeks at 37°C stress test, exhibited high solubility with acceptable viscosity, stability, and high percent monomer (at 150 mg / mL) at 40°C, maintained target binding in human serum, and showed no evidence for nonspecific binding. In summary, NPP3B815 met the ideal or acceptable criteria as demonstrated by the results from different biophysical assays, and the overall intrinsic properties were in favor of manufacturability.[000246] CD3 specific CD3B2030-N106A-LH scFv was generated by a genetic fusion of variable region light chain (VL) and variable region heavy chain (VH) with a flexible linker. The scFv recapitulates the antigen binding specificity and largely the affinity of a parental Fv. However, scFv-containing molecules are prone to aggregation due to low thermal stability and transient separation and intermolecular VL / VH reassociation (‘breathing’).[000247] Both of these liabilities were addressed by scFv ‘stapling’, abbreviated as spFv. To this end, 2 disulfide bonds were engineered between the flexible linker and anchor positions of the VL and VH domains (one on each). This novel strategy is compatible in both VL-VH and VH-VL orientations for almost all Fv domains. Extensive characterization of several molecules demonstrates that spFv molecules not only retain the same binding and function with improved biophysical properties but stapling significantly improved protein quality and aggregation of therapeutics observed in scFv.[000248] The spFv consists of a linker having a central ‘C1PPC2’ motif (SEQ ID NO: 63) wherein Cl forms a disulfide bond with (in the case of the spFv in the Tight- heavy’ orientation) an engineered cysteine at Position 42 (Chothia numbering) in the VL domain and C2 forms a disulfide bond with an engineered cysteine at Position 105 in the VH domain. HC1 features the ‘knob’ mutation T366W. HC2 features the anti-ENPP3 Fab region, and the ‘hole’ mutations T366S, L368A, and Y407V.[000249] The BsAb was developed to evaluate the therapeutic potential of targeting ENPP3 for T-cell redirection. NPP3B815 was developed for the treatment of advanced solid tumors where ENPP3 is known to be highly expressed on the cell surface.[000250] NPP3B815 was generated by co-expression of the anti-CD3e spFv ‘knob’ HC with the anti-ENPP3 Fab HC containing the ‘hole’ and paired with the light chain (LC). The anti- CD3e variable region was derived from Cris7, identified in wild-type mice and humanized in scFv format to identify humanized variants with higher thermal stability than parental Cris7 in scFv format with a range of CD3e affinities. Briefly, the murine complementarity determining region (CDR) regions were grafted into the IGHV1-69*O2-IGHJ1-O1 and IGKV3-l l*02-IGKJ4- 01 human germlines followed by human framework adaption as described previously. The parental HC contained an NG sequence in CDR3 at amino acid Positions 106-107 (Positions 100B-100C in Kabat numbering), representing a potential risk. This risk was eliminated by mutation N106A. Although several mutations could eliminate this risk, N106A was selected based on weaker affinity of the N106A variant compared to the parental v- region, since weaker affinity towards CD3e may be associated with lower toxicity in patients. The anti- CD3 v-region was then formatted into a spFv in the final molecule NPP3B815. The anti-ENPP3 variable region was discovered by immunizing transgenic mice (Ablexis) with a plasmid expressing full-length ENPP3 (Genedata DNA batch ID VB000066101). The parental anti- ENPP3 variable region, featured in the NPP3B56 mAb was not modified and was formatted as a Fab in the final molecule NPP3B815.Intrinsic Design Properties of select ENPP3 x CD3 bispecific antibodies[000251] NPP3B815 exhibited, among other characteristics, a favorable biophysical profile with high affinity (i.e., 920 pM) to human ENPP3 and low affinity (i.e., 110 nM) to human CD3, high purity, good conformational stability, low hydrophobicity, and no nonspecific binding. Furthermore, NPP3B815 exhibited good stability profiles in serum, under ex vivo physiological conditions, under PTM-inducing forced degradation studies, and under thermal stress at high concentrations. In summary, NPP3B815 exhibited low risk for development with favorable intrinsic properties of manufacturability.Selection of ENPP3-expressing Cancer Cell Lines for NPP3B815 in Vitro and in Vivo Assessment[000252] ENPP3 surface expression and receptor density were initially evaluated on a panel of 13 in vitro established RCC and HCC cell lines by flow cytometry using a commercial ENPP3 antibody (clone NP4D6) binding to a similar epitope as the lead ENPP3 -binding domain arm within NPP3B815. As represented in Figure 2, ENPP3 endogenous expression ranged from negative (determined as < lower limit of detection [LLOD], 2,969 receptors / cell) in Cakil, HEK293T and RXF393 (PDX) cell lines, low (<15,000 receptors / cell) in 786-0, ACHN, Huh7 and Hep3B, medium (15,000-40,000 receptors / cell) in KMRC20, HepG2 and VMRCRCW, medium-high (50,000-100,000 receptors / cell) in TUHR4TKB and TUHR10TKB and high (>100,000 receptors / cell) in A704 cell lines. Endogenous ENPP3 was knocked out (using clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats [CRISPR]) in HepG2 cell line, thus generating the negative cell line HepG2 ENPP3-KO. Conversely, ENPP3 was overexpressed in the CHO-K1 cell line to generate the overexpression cell line CHO-K1 ENPP3OE.[000253] To confirm if similar ENPP3 expression was detectable by NPP3B815 on these cell lines, direct- labeled ENPP3 x Null BsAb (NPP3B812), which has the same ENPP3 binder NPP3B56 as NPP3B815, was used for flow cytometry-based receptor density studies. The level of ENPP3 expression with NPP3B812 was observed to be comparable to that seen with the commercial antibody in the cell lines tested. While these cell lines represent a range of ENPP3 expression, most of them having lower expression than the ccRCC tumors. Among these cell lines, A704, VMRCRCW, and HepG2 ENPP3-KO cell lines were used for most of the key in vitro functional studies as they represent high, medium, and negative ENPP3 expression levels, respectively.[000254] Two of these cell lines (i.e., VMRCRCW and HepG2) have also been established as in vivo CDX models to use for NPP3B815 efficacy studies. Ex vivo ENPP3 expression was measured by IHC and flow cytometry (dissociated tumors) at a tumor volume equivalent to the tumor at randomization in these 2 CDX tumor models. IHC showed ENPP3 positivity in both CDX tumors and receptor density was found to be 10,600 (VMRCRCW) and 22,000 (HepG2) ENPP3 receptors per cell (Figure 3). To explore a higher ENPP3 expressing tumor model for in vivo studies, several positive ccRCC PDX models were identified by IHC; ENPP3 expressionwas evaluated ex vivo in the ccRCC PDX model RXF488, which showed high ENPP3 expression by IHC and receptor density measurements of 130,000 receptors / cell.In Vitro Binding of NPP3B815 to Tumor Cells and T Cells[000255] In vitro cell binding of NPP3B815 (NPP3B56 x CD3B2030-N106A) was assessed on high (A704), medium (VMRCRCW), and negative endogenous ENPP3 -expressing cell lines (Table 6). NPP3B815 exhibited a dose-dependent binding to both positive cell lines, A704 and VMRCRCW, with EC50 values of 1.01 nM and 0.5 nM respectively (Figure 4 and Table 7). NPP3B815 did not exhibit binding to the ENPP3 -negative cell line HepG2 ENPP3-KO. No binding was seen to any of the cell lines with the Null x CD3 (79C3B615) or isotype control (79C3B613) antibodies.Table 6: ENPP3 expression (receptor density) in different cancer cell lines[000256] Further, binding of NPP3B815 to human T cells isolated from 6 different healthy donors was assessed. A dose-dependent binding was observed to T cells from all 6 donors, with an average EC50 (± standard error of the mean) of 177±18.5 nM (Figure 4 and Table 7). As expected, no binding was seen with isotype control antibody 79C3B613 to any of the T-cell donors.[000257] To evaluate the specificity of NPP3B815 to ENPP3 compared to other ENPP family members, cell binding was assessed on CH0K1 cells overexpressing ENPP1, ENPP2, or ENPP3 (Figure 5). NPP3B815 exhibitied a dose-dependent binding to only the CH0K1 cells overexpressing ENPP3, with a binding affinity (EC50) of 0.5 nM. NPP3B815 did not exhibit any binding to the ENPP3 -negative cell line CH0K1 Parental or CHOK1 cellls overexpressing ENPP1 or ENPP2 (Figure 5 and Table 7). No binding was seen to any of the cell lines with the isotype control (79C3B613) antibody.Table 7: Cell Binding ECso values for NPP3B815 across target cells and T-cells.ECx, x% effective concentration; ND, not determined.ECso values were not determined if the dose-response curve did not satisfy one or both of the following criteria: R2has to be >0.9 and the log (95% confidence interval) difference needs to be <1.2.NPP3B815-induced Cytotoxicity and T-cell Activation on a Panel of Cancer Cell Lines with Different Levels of Endogenous ENPP3 Expression[000258] The ability of NPP3B815 (NPP3B56 x CD3B2030-N106A) to induce T-cell- mediated tumor cell killing was assessed using an Incucyte (live cell time-lapse) instrument against a panel of cancer cell lines (Table 8) with different ENPP3 expression levels: high (A704), medium-high (TUHR10TKB, TUHR4TKB), medium (VMRCRCW, HepG2), and negative (HepG2 ENPP3-KO). NPP3B815-induced dose-dependent T-cell-mediated cytotoxicity at an Effector to Target cell (E:T) ratio of 3: 1 on all the ENPP3 -positive cell lines (A704, VMRCRCW, HepG2, TUHR4TKB, and TUHR1 OTKB), while no killing was seen against the negative cell line (HepG2 ENPP3-KO) (Figure 6). As expected, no T-cell-mediated tumor cell killing was seen with either Null x CD3 (79C3B615) or ENPP3 x Null (NPP3B812) control antibodies in any of the cell lines tested. The EC50 and maximum activity values for tumor cell killing are shown in Table 8, as the cell lines with higher ENPP3 expression had lower EC50 values with high max tumor cell killing.[000259] To assess the level of T cell activation induced by the ENPP3 x CD3 bispecific antibody, CD25 expression was measured on T cells by flow cytometry at 48 hours post antibody treatment (Figure 7). A dose-dependent increase in T cell activation (E:T ratio = 3: 1) was seen with NPP3B815 on all the ENPP3 -positive cell lines tested (A704, VMRCRCW, and HepG2, while no T cell activation was seen with NPP3B815 in the negative cell line (HepG2ENPP3-KO) or with the control antibodies Null x CD3 and ENPP3 x Null in any of the cell lines tested. The EC50 and maximum activity values for T-cell activation are shown in Table 8.Table 8:ECso and maximum activity values for tumor cell killing and T-cell activation in aECx, x% effective concentration; Max, maximal; ND, not determined.EC50, EC90, and Max killing values were not determined if the dose-response curve did not satisfy one or both of the following criteria: R2 has to be >0.9 and the log (95% confidence interval) difference needs to be <1.2.[ELN E066020, E069414, E063183, E063179]NPP3B815-induced Cytotoxicity and T cell Activation Across Multiple T cell Donors and E:T Ratios[000260] NPP3B815-induced T-cell-mediated tumor cell killing of ENPP3 -positive cell lines A704 (high) and VMRCRCW (medium) and of ENPP3 -negative cell line HepG2 ENPP3-KO was evaluated in the presence of T cells isolated from 6 different healthy human donors (tested at E:T ratio = 3:1) (Figure 8A). Dose-dependent T-cell-mediated cytotoxicity was seen with NPP3B815 across all 6 donors, with some variability seen in EC50 values and maximum cell killing between the different donors (Table 9). As expected, no T-cell-mediated tumor cell killing was seen with Null x CD3 control antibody 79C3B615 against all cell lines and T-cell donors tested. Like A704, dose-dependent T-cell-mediated cytotoxicity was seen with NPP3B815 across all donors in the ENPP3-medium cell line, VMRCRCW, while no killing was observed against the negative cell line (HepG2 ENPP3-KO). EC50 and maximum killing values are shown in Table 9.[000261] In addition to the cytotoxicity assessment described above, NPP3B815-induced T-cell activation (CD25 expression by flow cytometry at 48 hours) was evaluated with the same 6 T-cell donors at an E:T ratio of 3: 1 (Figure 8B). A dose-dependent increase in T-cell activation was seen with NPP3B815 across all 6 T-cell donors in both ENPP3 -positive cell lines (A704 and VMRCRCW). No T-cell activation was seen with NPP3B815 in the negative cell line (HepG2ENPP3-K0) or with the Null x CD3 control antibody 79C3B615 against all cell lines tested. The EC50 and maximum values for T-cell activation are shown in Table 10.[000262] NPP3B815-induced cytotoxicity was also evaluated at lower, more physiologically relevant E:T ratios of 1 : 1 and 1:3, and a dose-dependent killing was observed in the ENPP3-high cell line, A704 at these E:T ratios (Figure 9). A modest decrease in the maximum killing activity of NPP3B815 was seen at the lower E:T ratios of 1: 1 (41%) and 1 :3 (17%), compared to that observed in the ENPP3-high cell line A704 at an E:T ratio of 3:1 (71%), when measured at 72 hours (Table 9). NPP3B815Interestingly, with longer incubation time (5 days vs 3 days), the maximum killing in A704 at the lower E:T ratios 1 :3 increased from 41% to 91% for E:T = 1: 1 and from 17% to 65% 35% for E:T = 1 :3, leading to similar max killing as with higher E:T ratios. Similar cytotoxicity assays at lower E:T ratios were also preformed in the ENPP3 -medium cell line VMRCRCW and the negative cell line, HepG2 ENPP3-KO. A dose-dependent killing was observed in VMRCRCW at the lower E:T ratios, while no killing was observed against the negative cell line HepG2 ENPP3-KO (Figure 9). As expected, no T-cell-mediated tumor cell killing was seen with the Null x CD3 control antibody 79C3B615 at any of the E:T ratios or cell lines tested. The EC50 and maximum activity values for tumor cell killing are shown in Table 9.Table 9: EC50 values for tumor cell cytotoxicity across T-cell donors and E:T ratios.ECx, x% effective concentration; Max, maximal; ND, not determined.ECso and Max killing values were not determined if the dose-response curve did not satisfy one or both of the following criteria: R2has to be >0.9 and the log (95% confidence interval) difference needs to be <1.2.Table 10: ECso values for T-cell activation across donors (E;T ratio = 3:1).ECso and Max activity values were not determined if the dose-response curve did not satisfy one or both of the following criteria: R2has to be >0.9 and the log (95% confidence interval) difference needs to be <1.2.NPP3B815-induced Cytokine Release in Presence of T Cells and Tumor Cells [000263] To further characterize T cell activation by NPP3B815, cytokine release profiles of 10 established inflammatory cytokines were measured using the Human Vplex Proinflammatory Panel (Meso Scale Discovery [MSD]) in the ENPP3-high cell line A704 at 48 hours post incubation with T cells from 6 different healthy human donors at an E: T ratio of 3 : 1. A dosedependent increase in all pro-inflammatory cytokines tested was seen with NPP3B815 across all 6 T cell donors with some variability in response seen between donors (Figure 10). Some cytokines such as interferon (IFN)-y, interleukin (IL)-2, IL- 10, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-a exhibited a strong dose-dependent induction with NPP3B815 treatment (Figure 10 and Table 11), while others (IL-10, IL-12p70, IL-4, IL-13, IL-8) had a modest to low dose-dependent induction. Concentrations of induced cytokines widely vary upon NPP3B815 treatment from the lowest induced cytokine (IL-10) in the single-digit pg / mL to the highest (IFN-y) in the 3-digit ng / mL range. The Null x CD3 control antibody 79C3B615 induced low / no cytokine response as expected, except in the case of IL-8, which showed high background signal.Table 11: EC50 values for cytokine release with T-cell donors.ECX, x% effective concentration; Max, maximal; ND, not determined; PBMC, peripheral blood mononuclear cell. EC50, EC90, and Max killing values were not determined if the dose-response curve did not satisfy one or both of the following criteria: R2has to be >0.9 and the log (95% confidence interval) difference needs to be <1.2.NPP3B815-induced Cytotoxicity from PBMC Donors[000264] NPP3B815-induced tumor cell killing was evaluated in the presence of PBMCs isolated from corresponding 6 donors from which human T-cell were previously isolated. Dosedependent cytotoxicity was seen with NPP3B815 treatment in the presence of all 6 PBMC donors in the ENPP3-high cell line A704 at an E:T ratio of 5:1 (Figure 11). Dose-dependent cytotoxicity was also seen with NPP3B815 treatment in the presence of all 6 PBMC donors in the ENPP3-medim cell line VMRCRCW, while no killing was observed against the negative cell line HepG2 ENPP3-KO.[000265] Further, NPP3B815-induced cytotoxicity in the presence of PBMCs was also evaluated at lower, more physiologically relevant E: T ratios of 3 : 1 and 1 : 1. A dose-dependent killing of ENPP3 -positive cell line A704 was observed at the lower E:T ratios in the presence of all 6 PBMC donors (Figure 11). A moderate decrease in the maximum killing activity of NPP3B815 was seen at the lowest E:T ratio of 1:1 (44%), when compared to that observed at an E:T ratio of 5: 1 (82%) and 3: 1 (78%). As expected, no tumor cell killing was seen with the Null x CD3 control antibody 79C3B615 in the presence of any of the PBMC donors and cell lines tested (Figure 11). EC50 and maximum killing values are shown in Table 12.Table 12: EC50 values for tumor ce 1 cytotoxicity with PBMC donors.ECx, x% effective concentration; Max, maximal; ND, not determined; PBMC, peripheral blood mononuclear cell. ECso, EC90, and Max killing values were not determined if the dose-response curve did not satisfy one or both of the following criteria: R2has to be >0.9 and the log (95% confidence interval) difference needs to be <1.2.Cell Binding and Cytotoxicity with cyno ENPP3 expressing cells.[000266] NPP3B815’s ENPP3-binding arm is cynomolgus monkey cross-reactive, but its CD3- binding arm is human specific. Therefore, a tool molecule was generated (i.e., NPP3B847) containing the same ENPP3 -binding arm as NPP3B815 but including a cynomolgus cross- reactive CD3 -binding arm, CD3B219 (unstapled, scFv). In vitro cell binding of the tool molecue NPP3B847 was assessed on human and cyno T-cells as well as a cyno ENPP3 cell line, HepG2- KO cyENPP3 OE. NPP3B847 exhibited a dose-dependent binding to the cyno ENPP3 overexpressing cell line HepG2-KO cyENPP3 OE with an EC50 value of 1.6 nM, with no binding seen with the isotype control (79C3B613) antibody (Table 13). Further, comparable dose-dependent binding of NPP3B847 was observed with both human and cynomolgus monkey T cells, with binding affinity (EC50) values being 4.5 nM and 5.2 nM, respectively (Table 13).Table 13: Summary of molecular characteristics of NPP3B847[000267] An assessment of the in vitro functional activity of the tool molecule NPP3B847 was conducted by assessing T-cell activation and T-cell-mediated tumor cell cytotoxicity in the presence of human or cynomolgus monkey T cells. These readouts were measured by flowcytometry in HepG2 ENPP3-K0 cells overexpressing cyno ENPP3 (Figure 12 and Table 14) and compared to the activity of the clinical candidate NPP3B815 in the presence of human T-cells. [000268] NPP3B847-induced T-cell-mediated cell killing of HepG3-KO cyno ENPP3-OE cell line was evaluated in the presence of cyno T cells isolated from 4 different donors (tested at E:T ratio = 3:1) (Figure 12). Dose-dependent T-cell-mediated cytotoxicity was seen with NPP3B847 across all 4 donors, with some variability seen in EC50 values (0.05 nM - 0.14 nM) between the different donors (Table 14). As expected, no T-cell-mediated tumor cell killing was seen with Null x CD3 control antibody NPP3B41 with cyno T-cell donors tested. Further, NPP3B847 induced T-cell-mediated cell killing of HepG2-KO cyno ENPP3-OE cell line was compared to that of NPP3B815 using human T-cells as effector cells at an E:T ratio = 3: 1 (Figure 31). Dosedependent T-cell-mediated cytotoxicity was seen with both NPP3B847 and NPP3B815 at EC50 values of 0.016 nM and 0.079 nM respectively, with no killing seen with Null x CD3 control antibody NPP3B41 with human T-cells (Table 14).[000269] In addition to assessing cytotoxicity, NPP3B847-induced T-cell activation (CD25 expression by flow cytometry at 48 hours) was evaluated with the same 4 cyno T-cell donors at an E:T ratio of 3:1 (Figure 12). A dose-dependent increase in T-cell activation (EC50 = 0.005 nM - 0.033 nM) was seen with NPP3B847 across all 4 T-cell donors tested in the HepG3-KO cyno ENPP3-OE cell line and no activity was seen with Null x CD3 control antibody NPP3B41. Further, human T-cell activation was evaluated with both NPP3B847 and NPP3B815 using HepG2-KO cyno ENPP3-OE cell line at an E:T ratio = 3: 1 (Figure 12). Dose-dependent human T-cell-activation was seen with both NPP3B847 and NPP3B815 at an EC50 value of 0.004 nM and 0.023 nM, respectively, with no activation seen with Null x CD3 control antibody NPP3B41. The EC50 values for cyno and human T-cell activation with NPP3B815 and NPP3B41 are shown in Table 14.Table 14: Summary of EC50 values from cytotoxicity and T-cell activation assays using NPP3B815 and NPP3B847.cyno, cynomolgus monkey; cytotox., cytotoxicity; ECso, 50% effective concentration; N / A, not applicable.In Vivo Efficacy[000270] The antitumor activity of the ENPP3 x CD3 stapled (spFv) BsAb NPP3B815 compared with Null x CD3 control antibody was evaluated in the established ENPP3-low (-10,600 receptors / cell) human RCC CDX model VMRCRCW or the ENPP3 -medium (-22,000 receptors / cell) human HCC HepG2 model, respectively. Efficacy studies were performed in female immune-compromised NSG mice humanized with donor CD3+ pan T cells. Twice-weekly treatment with NPP3B815 administered intraperitoneally (IP) was initiated after SC tumors were established and 1 day post IP Tcell engraftment. Engraftment of human T cells can lead to body weight loss due to eventual graft-versus-host disease (GvHD); however, treatment with NPP3B815 did not result in significant body weight loss as compared to the Null x CD3 -treated control group. In the HepG2 tumor model, body weight loss due to tumor-induced cachexia was observed across all groups.[000271] In Study ONC2022-035, mice bearing established SC VMRCRCW xenografts were IP dosed with NPP3B815 twice weekly at 10, 1, 0.1, and 0.01 mg / kg or Null x CD3 control antibody (10 mg / kg) for a total of 8 doses (n=10 / group). Significant antitumor efficacy was observed with NPP3B815 treatment at 10 and 1 mg / kg over time (p<0.05) with 70% and 75% A tumor growth inhibition (TGI), respectively, as compared to Null x CD3-antibody-treated control mice on Day 39 post tumor implantation (Figure 13A). Treatment with NPP3B815 at 0.1 and 0.01 mg / kg resulted in 58% and 42% ATGI, respectively, as compared to the Null x CD3- antibody -treated animals on Day 39. While statistically significant (p<0.05) the data at these lower NPP3B815 doses are not biologically significant (Johnson et al., 2001, Br J Cancer, 84(10): 1424-1431). The lack of biologically significant efficacy (i.e., >60% TGI) observed from treatment with NPP3B815 at 0.1 and 0.01 mg / kg demonstrated that 1 mg / kg is the minimally efficacious dose against low ENPP3 target level model. All efficacy results are summarized in Table 15.Table 15: Summary of efficacy results for NPP3B815 or NPP3B194.CR, complete response; F, female; IP, intraperitoneal; M, male; NSG, non-obese diabetic (NOD) severe combined immunodeficiency (scid) gamma or NOD.Cg- / , / 7lt / c'"' / Il2rmIW]l / SzJ: q3d-q4d, twice a week; SC, subcutaneous; TGI, tumor growth inhibition. p<0.05 versus control except where noted as not significant (ns).Example 4: Treatment of Solid Tumors with NPP3B815[000272] NPP3B815 is a T cell-redirecting bispecific antibody that binds CD3 and ENPP3 for the treatment of advanced-stage solid tumors with approximately 50% or greater prevalence of ENPP3 expression. Exemplary solid tumors include kidney cancer (clear cell and papillary histologies), lung adenocarcinoma, endometrioid uterine and ovarian cancers, and CRC.[000273] Safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and antitumor activity of NPP3B815 administered to participants with solid tumors that have an overall high prevalence of ENPP3 are examined. Retrospective evaluation of ENPP3 expression in these tumors is performed to understand the relationship between ENPP3 expression, PD effects, and antitumor activity.Arms[000274] In Part 1 (dose escalation) participants receive NPP3B815. The dose is escalated sequentially until the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) regimen(s) have been identified. In Part 2 (dose expansion) participants receive NPP3B815 at the RP2D regimen(s) determined in Part 1.OBJECTIVES AND ENDPOINTSOVERALL DESIGN[000275] This is an open-label, multi-center study to determine the safety, PK, PD, and preliminary antitumor activity of NPP3B815 in participants with advanced-stage solid tumors from selected tumor types with approximately 50% or greater prevalence of ENPP3 expression. The study is conducted in 2 parts: Dose Escalation (Part 1) and Dose Expansion (Part 2).[000276] A target group of 140 participants are treated. The actual number of participants treated in Part 1 depends on the number of cohorts explored and the number of participants enrolled in each cohort. The actual number of participants treated in Part 2 depends on the number of cohorts tested and whether more than 1 RP2D is selected.[000277] The study treatment is administered subcutaneously (SC) at a dose assigned by the sponsor according to the dose escalation or cohort expansion strategy outlined in the sections below.[000278] During the study, safety is monitored by the SET at each dose and at regular intervals during cohort expansion. Cumulative data from subsequent treatment cycles are monitored for late-onset toxicities. SET decisions are based on the review of all available data including, but not limited to, PK, PD, safety, and preliminary antitumor activity.Observation Period[000279] The observation period begins after each study treatment administration. All participants in Part 1 and Part 2 require observation for at least 2 hours post administration of Treatment Doses 2 to 3, inclusive. Observation may be extended to administrations beyond Dose 3 by the investigator or treating physician if needed.Provisional Dosing Table[000280] A dosing table (Table 16) is provided below depicting certain dose levels.Table 16: Provisional Dosing TablePart 1 (Dose Escalation)[000281] Part 1 is intended to identify the RP2D regimen(s) of NPP3B815. The FIH starting dose is Dose Level 1 corresponding to the MABEL. Subsequent doses are selected based on the review of all available data including, but not limited to, PK, PD, safety, and preliminary clinical activity. The initial dosing schedule is Q3W.[000282] After the starting dose, each dose escalation cohort is approved by the SET based on DLT assessment and review of available data using an adaptive dose escalation strategy.Determination of the RP2D regimen(s)[000283] The RP2D regimen(s) are determined after review of all available PK, PD, safety, and efficacy data and are a dose level at which the isotonic estimate of the DLT rate is below or equal to the target rate of 28%. At least 6 participants should have been assessed for DLTs at the provisional RP2D(s) dose level. One or more RP2D regimen may be selected.Part 2 (Dose Expansion)[000284] In Part 2, NPP3B815 are administered, at the RP2D regimen(s) as determined in Part 1, in disease specific cohorts to participants with the following diseases: kidney cancer, lung adenocarcinoma, endometrioid uterine and ovarian cancers, and CRC. Participants are enrolled in each cohort to confirm the safety, PK / PD, and preliminary clinical activity of NPP3B815.STUDY POPULATIONInclusion Criteria:Ages Eligible for Study: 18 Years and older Sexes Eligible for Study: All Gender Based: No.Gender Eligibility Criteria: N / A Accepts Healthy Volunteers: No• Have histologically or cytologically confirmed, metastatic, or unresectable solid tumor of one of the following types: a) Renal cell cancer (RCC)-clear cell or papillary carcinoma; b) Endometrioid ovarian cancer c) Endometrioid uterine carcinoma; d) Colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC); e) Lung adenocarcinoma.• Have measurable or evaluable disease: Part 1- Either measurable or evaluable disease; Part 2- At least 1 measurable lesion per RECIST vl.1.

While the role of ENPP3 in cancer remains unclear, it is postulated that the restricted apical expression in normal tissue prevents potential off-tumor effects, while allowing selective targeting of depolarized tumor ENPP3 expression. ENPP3 is highly prevalent in several solid tumors including renal cell carcinoma (RCC), lung adenocarcinoma, epithelioid endometrial and ovarian cancers, and colorectal cancer (CRC). NPP3B815 is a bispecific antibody targeting ENPP3 and the CD3 T cell receptor that demonstrated ENPP3 -expression-dependent potent in vitro T-cell activation, cytotoxicity, and anti-tumor activity (with complete tumor regressions) in in vitro and in vivo models. Preclinical safety assessment with a tool molecule using the therapeutic ENPP3 binding arm but with a cynomolgus CD3 cross-reactive arm identified modality consistent toxicities.Materials / Methods:[000286] NPP3B815 is being evaluated in this Phase 1 study to establish safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) / pharmacodynamics (PD), and anti-tumor activity in pts with advanced solid tumors with approximately 50% or greater prevalence of ENPP3 expression. Archival tissue is being collected and analyzed retrospectively for ENPP3 expression. The study is being conducted in 2 parts: Dose Escalation (Part 1) and Dose Expansion (Part 2). In Part 1, study treatment is administered SC with dose escalation guided by a BOIN statistical design.Results:[000287] Twenty-one patients have been treated in Part 1 of study (clear cell RCC n=9, papillary RCC n=2, lung n=l, CRC n=6, endometrioid uterine cancer n=l and endometrioid ovarian cancer n=2) at various doses ranging from 0.017mg - 0.5mg SC Q 3W without step-up dosing and up to 0.65mg with step-up dosing. Two dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) were reported at 0.5mg dose without step-up dosing (Grade 3 cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and Grade 3 maculopapular rash). The most common adverse reactions are rash reported in 7 (33.3%) pts, followed by injection site reactions (ISR) and fatigue both reported in 5 (23.8%) pts and CRS reported in 4 (19%) pts. CRS events were reported for pts above the 0.15mg dose and were Grade 1, 2 and 3.Discussion / Conclusion:[000288] Preliminary clinical data from dose escalation demonstrates a safety profile expected for T-cell redirectors. DLT’s observed at the 0.5mg dose led to implementation of step-up dosing to mitigate CRS. From cohort 6 onwards a minimum of 3 lung adenocarcinoma patients will be enrolled in each cohort with the aim of identifying a new targeted agent for lung adenocarcinoma and other solid tumors.[000289][000290]
