Abstract
Description
1 / 74 Anti-CDH6 antibody and its use.
[0001] This disclosure claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202310109927.8, entitled “ANTI-CDH6 ANTIBODY AND ITS USE”, filed with the National Intellectual Property Administration of China on February 10, 2023, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD
[0002] This disclosure relates to the fields of bioengineering and biomedicine and, in particular, to an anti-CDH6 antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof, a nucleic acid encoding it, an expression vector and an expression cell thereof, a method of preparation thereof, a pharmaceutical composition thereof and its use in the treatment of diseases, for example, its use in the treatment of tumors. FUNDAMENTALS OF THE INVENTION
[0003] Cadherins play an important role in tissue homeostasis, being primarily responsible for cell-cell adhesion during embryogenesis, tissue morphogenesis, differentiation, and tumorigenesis. Any dysfunction or instability of the cadherin-catenin complex can lead to tumor progression.
[0004] CDH6 is a classical type II cadherin, also known as K-cadherin. CDH6 is a single transmembrane protein composed of 790 amino acids, and the extracellular region is divided into 5 regions. CDH6 has been found to be highly expressed in tumor tissues, such as kidney cancer, ovarian cancer, and thyroid cancer, while it is rarely expressed in normal tissues (Cancer Discov; 2017, 7(9): 103045, the content of which is incorporated herein by reference). Like other members of the cadherin superfamily, the CDH6 protein is located in the basolateral membrane of epithelial cells and mediates calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion with the property of internalization. Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, page 10 / 88 2 / 74 fast. Therefore, CDH6 has become an attractive target in tumor therapy as a highly recognizable, specific tumor marker, and could be developed for the treatment of cancers such as ovarian cancer and kidney cancer.
[0005] Although there has been some progress in the treatment of ovarian and kidney cancer in recent years, there is still a substantial unmet clinical need. Currently, there are few drugs developed targeting CDH6, and no related drugs have been approved for marketing. Therefore, drugs developed for this target have broad clinical application and treatment prospects. SUMMARY

TERMINOLOGY AND DEFINITIONS
[00044] As used in this document, the term “antibody” (Ab) refers to an immunoglobulin molecule that specifically binds to a target antigen or has immunoreactivity, including polyclonal, monoclonal, genetically modified and other forms of modified antibodies (including, but not limited to, chimeric antibodies, humanized antibodies, fully human antibodies, heteroconjugated antibodies (e.g., bispecific, trispecific and tetraspecific antibodies, diabodies, triabodies, tetrabodies and antibody conjugates)) and antibody antigen-binding fragments (including, Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, page 28 / 88 20 / 74 for example, the Fab', F(ab')2, Fab, Fv, rIgG and scFv fragments). Furthermore, unless otherwise indicated, the term “monoclonal antibody” (mAb) is intended to include intact antibody molecules and incomplete antibody fragments (e.g., Fab and F(ab')2 fragments that lack the Fc fragment of an intact antibody (being eliminated more rapidly from animal circulation) and consequently do not exhibit Fc-mediated effector function (see Wahl et al., J. Nucl. Med. 24: 316, 1983, the content of which is incorporated herein by reference)) capable of specifically binding to a target protein.
[00045] The “antibody”, in this document, may be derived from any animal, including, but not limited to, human and non-human animals that may be selected from primates, mammals, rodents and vertebrates, such as camelid species, Lama glama, Lama guanicoe, Vicugna pacos, sheep, rabbits, mice, rats or Chondrichthyes species (e.g., shark).
[00046] The term “monospecific”, in this document, means having one or more binding sites, each of which binds to the same epitope of the same antigen.
[00047] The term “multispecific,” in this document, means having at least two antigen-binding sites, each of which binds to a different epitope of the same antigen or to a different epitope of a different antigen. Therefore, terms such as “bispecific,” “trispecific,” and “tetraspecific” refer to the number of different epitopes to which an antigen / antibody-binding molecule can bind.
[00048] The terms “full-chain antibody”, “complete antibody” and “intact antibody” are used interchangeably in this document and refer to an antibody that has a structure substantially similar to a natural antibody.
[00049] As used in this document, the term “fragment of Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, p. 29 / 88 21 / 74 “antigen binding” refers to one or more fragments of an antibody that retain the ability to bind specifically to a target antigen. The antigen-binding function of an antibody can be performed by fragments of a full-chain antibody. An antibody fragment can be a Fab, F(ab')2, scFv, SMIP, diabody, triabody, afibody, nanobody, aptamer, or domain antibody.Examples of binding fragments that encompass the term “antigen-binding fragment” of an antibody include, but are not limited to: (i) a Fab fragment, i.e., a monovalent fragment consisting of the VL, VH, CL, and CH1 domains; (ii) an F(ab)2 fragment, i.e., a bivalent fragment comprising two Fab fragments linked by a disulfide bond in the hinge region; (iii) an Fd fragment consisting of the VH and CH1 domains; (iv) an Fv fragment consisting of the VL and VH domains of a single arm of an antibody; (v) a dAb comprising the VH and VL domains; (vi) a dAb fragment consisting of a VH domain (Ward et al., Nature 341: 544-546, 1989, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference); (vii) a dAb consisting of a VH or VL domain; (viii) an isolated complementarity-determining region (CDR); and (ix) a combination of two or more isolated CDRs, which may optionally be joined by a synthetic ligand.Furthermore, although the two domains (VL and VH) of the Fv fragment are encoded by separate genes, these two domains can be joined using a recombination method via a linker that allows them to be transformed into a single protein chain in which the VL and VH regions are paired to form a monovalent molecule (known as single-chain Fv (scFv); see, for example, Bird et al., Science 242: 423-426, 1988 and Huston et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85: 5879-5883, 1988, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference). These antibody fragments can be obtained using a conventional technique known to those skilled in the art, and these... Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, page 30 / 88 22 / 74 fragments are screened for use in the same manner as intact antibodies. Antigen-binding fragments can be produced by a recombinant DNA technique or enzymatic or chemical cleavage of intact immunoglobulins or, in some embodiments, by a chemical peptide synthesis procedure known in the art.
[00050] As used in this document, the term “CDH6”, also known as “cadherin 6”, refers to a cell adhesion molecule that is a member of the cadherin family of cell-cell adhesion molecules. CDH6 is a single transmembrane protein composed of 790 amino acids, classified in the type II cadherin family, and possesses an N-terminal extracellular domain and a C-terminal intracellular domain. The CDH6 protein used in this disclosure can be purified directly from CDH6-expressing cells of a human or non-human mammal (e.g., rat, mouse, or monkey) and then used, or a fraction of the cell membrane of the above cells can be prepared, which can be used as the CDH6 protein. Alternatively, CDH6 can be obtained by enabling a host cell to produce CDH6 by in vitro synthesis or by genetic manipulation. According to this genetic manipulation, the CDH6 protein can be obtained.Specifically, CDH6 cDNA is incorporated into a vector capable of expressing CDH6 cDNA, and then CDH6 is synthesized in a solution containing enzymes, substrates, and energy materials necessary for transcription and translation, or by transforming host cells of other prokaryotes or eukaryotes, thus allowing them to express CDH6. Cells expressing CDH6 or cell lines expressing CDH6 based on the genetic manipulations above can also be used to present the CDH6 protein. Alternatively, an expression vector incorporating CDH6 cDNA can be administered directly to the animal to be immunized, and CDH6 can be expressed in it. Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, page 31 / 88 23 / 74 immunized animal, as described.
[00051] As used in this document, the term “bispecific antibody” refers to an antibody, typically a human or humanized antibody, with monoclonal binding specificity for at least two different antigens. In the present disclosure, one of the binding specificities may be detected for an antigenic epitope of CDH6, and the other may be detected for another antigenic epitope of CDH6 or any other antigen other than CDH6, for example, for a cell surface protein, a receptor, a receptor subunit, a tissue-specific antigen, a virus-derived protein, a virus-encoded envelope protein, a bacterial-derived protein, or a bacterial surface protein, etc.
[00052] As used in this document, the term “chimeric” antibody refers to an antibody that has a variable sequence of an immunoglobulin derived from a source organism (e.g., rat or mouse) and a constant region of an immunoglobulin derived from a different organism (e.g., human). Methods for producing chimeric antibodies are known in the art.
[00053] As used in this document, the term “complementarity-determining region” (CDR) refers to a hypervariable region found in variable light and heavy chain domains. The highly conserved portions of the variable domains are called structural regions (FRs). As is known in the art, the amino acid positions that represent the hypervariable regions of an antibody may vary according to the context and the various definitions known in the art. Some positions within a variable domain may be considered hybrid hypervariable positions, as such positions may be considered within a hypervariable region according to one set of standards (such as IMGT or KABAT), but outside of a hypervariable region. Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, page 32 / 88 24 / 74 according to a different set of patterns (such as KABAT or IMGT). One or more of these positions may also be found in extended hypervariable regions. The present disclosure includes antibodies comprising modifications in such hybrid hypervariable positions. The variable domains of the native heavy and light chains each comprise four structural regions, primarily in a sheet configuration, connected by three CDRs (CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3) that form loops connecting the sheet structures and, in some cases, are part of the sheet structures. The CDRs in each chain are held tightly together by the FR regions, in the order FR1-CDR1-FR2-CDR2-FR3-CDR3-FR4, and contribute to the formation of the antibody antigen-binding site with CDRs from other antibody chains (see Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, National Institute of Health, Bethesda, Md, 1987, which is incorporated herein by reference).For example, CDR1-VH, CDR2-VH, and CDR3-VH, in this document, refer to the first CDR, second CDR, and third CDR, respectively, of the variable region of the heavy chain (VH), which constitute a combination of CDRs (VHCDR combination) of the heavy chain (or its variable region); CDR1-VL, CDR2-VL, and CDR3-VL refer to the first CDR, second CDR, and third CDR, respectively, of the variable region of the light chain (VL), which constitute a combination of CDRs (VLCDR combination) of the light chain (or its variable region).
[00054] As used in this document, the term “monoclonal antibody” refers to an antibody derived from a single clone (including any eukaryotic, prokaryotic, or phage clone) and is not limited to the method of antibody production.
[00055] As used in this document, the term “VH” refers to the variable region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain of an antibody (including the heavy chain of an Fv, an scFv, or a Fab). The term “VL” Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, p. 33 / 88 25 / 74 refers to the variable region of an immunoglobulin light chain (including the light chain of an Fv, an scFv, a dsFv, or a Fab).
[00056] The term “constant region of the heavy chain,” in this document, refers to the carboxyl-terminal portion of an antibody heavy chain that is not directly involved in antibody binding to an antigen but exhibits effector functions, such as interaction with an Fc receptor; the constant region of the heavy chain has a more conserved amino acid sequence compared to the antibody variable domain. The “constant region of the heavy chain” comprises at least one CH1 domain, a hinge region, a CH2 domain, a CH3 domain, or a variant or fragment thereof. The “constant region of the heavy chain” includes a “complete constant region of the heavy chain” with a structure substantially similar to that of a natural antibody constant region and a “fragment of the constant region of the heavy chain” including only “a portion of the complete constant region of the heavy chain.”Illustratively, a typical “constant region of the full-chain antibody heavy chain” consists of the CH1 domain-hinge region-CH2 domain-CH3 domain. When the antibody is IgE, it additionally comprises a CH4 domain; when the antibody is a heavy chain antibody, it does not comprise a CH1 domain. Illustratively, a typical “fragment of the constant region of the heavy chain” can be selected from among the CH1, Fc, and CH3 domains.
[00057] The term “light chain constant region” in this document refers to the carboxyl-terminal portion of an antibody light chain that is not directly involved in the binding of the antibody to an antigen. The light chain constant region can be selected from either a constant κ domain or a constant λ domain.
[00058] The term “Fc”, in this document, refers to the carboxyl terminal portion of an antibody that is formed by the hydrolysis of an antibody. Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, page 34 / 88 26 / 74 intact by papain, which typically comprises the CH3 and CH2 domains of the antibody. The Fc region includes, for example, a native sequence Fc region, a recombinant Fc region, and a variant Fc region. Although the boundaries of the Fc region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain may vary slightly, the Fc region of the human IgG heavy chain is generally defined to extend from an amino acid residue at the Cys226 position, or from Pro230, to its carboxyl terminus. The C-terminal lysine of the Fc region (residue 447 according to the EU numbering scheme) may be removed, for example, during antibody production or purification, or by recombinant engineering of the nucleic acid encoding the antibody heavy chain, and therefore the Fc region may or may not include Lys447.
[00059] The term “humanized antibody,” in this document, refers to a genetically modified non-human antibody that has an amino acid sequence modified to increase homology with the sequence of a human antibody. Generally, all or part of the CDRs of a humanized antibody are derived from a non-human antibody (donor antibody), and all or part of the non-CDRs (e.g., variable region FRs and / or constant regions) are derived from a human immunoglobulin (recipient antibody). The humanized antibody generally retains, or partially retains, the desired properties of the donor antibody, including, but not limited to, antigen specificity, affinity, reactivity, ability to enhance immune cell activity, ability to enhance immune response, and the like.
[00060] The term “fully human antibody,” in this document, refers to an antibody with variable regions in which both the RFs and CDRs are derived from human germline immunoglobulin sequences. Furthermore, if the antibody comprises constant regions, the constant regions are also derived from human germline immunoglobulin sequences. The antibody Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, page 35 / 88 27 / 74 fully human, in this document, may include amino acid residues that are not encoded by human germline immunoglobulin sequences (e.g., mutations introduced by random or site-specific mutagenesis in vitro, or by somatic mutations in vivo). However, “fully human antibody,” in this document, is not intended to include antibodies in which germline-derived CDR sequences from another mammalian species (e.g., mouse) have been grafted onto human structural sequences.
[00061] The term “naked antibody” in this document refers to an antibody that is not bound, fused, or conjugated to another agent or molecule (e.g., a marker or drug), peptide, or polypeptide. In specific embodiments, the naked antibody expressed by mammalian host cells may be glycosylated by the host cell’s glycosylation machinery (e.g., glycosylases). In certain embodiments, the naked antibody is not glycosylated when expressed by a host cell that does not possess its own glycosylation machinery (e.g., a glycosylase). In certain embodiments, naked antibodies are intact antibodies, while in other embodiments, naked antibodies are antigen-binding fragments of intact antibodies, e.g., Fab antibodies.
[00062] The term “conjugated antibody”, in this document, refers to an antibody that may be associated with a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle or diluent, which may be a monoclonal antibody, a chimeric antibody, a humanized antibody or a human antibody.
[00063] The term “diabody”, in this document, refers to a bivalent bispecific antibody that can bind to different epitopes on the same antigen or on different antigens.
[00064] The term “minimum antibody recognition unit” in this document refers to the minimum unit of an antibody. Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, p. 36 / 88 28 / 74 which can recognize an antigen in an antigen-antibody binding reaction.
[00065] The term “nanobody,” in this document, refers to a heavy chain antibody naturally lacking a light chain present in a camel, and cloning of its variable region can result in a single-domain antibody consisting only of a variable region of the heavy chain (also called VHH (variable domain of the heavy chain antibody)), which is the smallest functional antigen-binding fragment.
[00066] As used in this document, the term “percentage (%) of sequence identity” refers to the percentage of identity between amino acid (or nucleotide) residues of a candidate sequence and amino acid (or nucleotide) residues of a reference sequence after sequence alignment and the introduction of gaps, if necessary, to achieve the maximum percentage of sequence identity (e.g., gaps may be introduced in one or both candidate and reference sequences for optimal alignment, and non-homologous sequences may be omitted for comparison purposes). Alignment can be performed in several ways well known to those skilled in the art for the purpose of determining the percentage of sequence identity, for example, using publicly available computer software such as BLAST, ALIGN, or Megalign (DNASTAIi).Those skilled in the art can determine the appropriate parameters for measuring alignment, including any algorithms necessary to achieve maximum alignment along the entire length of the aligned sequences. For example, an aligned reference sequence for comparison with a candidate sequence might show that the candidate sequence exhibits 50% to 100% sequence identity along the entire length of the candidate sequence or in a selected portion of amino acid residues (or...). Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, page 37 / 88 29 / 74 contiguous nucleotides of the candidate sequence. The length of the candidate sequence aligned for comparison purposes may be, for example, at least 30% (e.g., 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, or 100%) of the length of the reference sequence. When a position in the candidate sequence is occupied by the same amino acid (or nucleotide) residue as the corresponding position in the reference sequence, then the molecules are identical at that position.
[00067] The term “conservative amino acid,” in this document, generally refers to amino acids that belong to the same class or have similar characteristics (e.g., charge, side chain size, hydrophobicity, hydrophilicity, main structure conformation, and rigidity). Illustratively, the amino acids in each of the following groups belong to amino acid residues that are conservative to each other, and the amino acid residue substitutions within the groups belong to amino acid conservative substitutions:
[00068] (1) acidic amino acids: Asp (D) and Glu (E);
[00069] (2) basic amino acids: Lys (K), Arg (R) and His (H);
[00070] (3) uncharged hydrophilic amino acids: Ser (S), Thr (T), Asn (N) and Gln (Q);
[00071] (4) uncharged aliphatic amino acids: Gly (G), Ala (A), Val (V), Leu (L) and Ile (I);
[00072] (5) uncharged nonpolar amino acids: Cys (C), Met (M) and Pro (P); and
[00073] (6) aromatic amino acids: Phe (F), Tyr (Y) and Trp (W).
[00074] The term “Kabat numbering scheme” in this document generally refers to the immunoglobulin alignment and numbering scheme proposed by Elvin A. Kabat (see, for example, Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th edition. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland, 1991, whose Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, p. 38 / 88 30 / 74 content is incorporated into this document by reference).
[00075] As used in this document, the term “specific binding” refers to a binding reaction that determines the presence of an antigen in a heterogeneous population of proteins and other biomolecules that are specifically recognized, for example, by antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof. An antibody or antigen-binding fragment that specifically binds to an antigen will bind to the antigen with a KD less than 100 nM. For example, an antibody, or an antigen-binding fragment thereof that specifically binds to an antigen, will bind to the antigen with a KD up to 100 nM (e.g., between 1 pM and 100 nM). Antibodies, or antigen-binding fragments thereof that do not exhibit specific binding to an antigen or specific epitope thereof, will have a KD greater than 100 nM (e.g., greater than 500 nM, 1 μM, 100 μM, 500 μM, or 1 mM) for the antigen or specific epitope thereof.Several immunoassay methods can be used to select antibodies specifically immunoreactive to a specific protein or carbohydrate. For example, solid-phase ELISA immunoassays are routinely used to select antibodies specifically immunoreactive to a protein or carbohydrate. See Harlow & Lane, Antibodies, A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Press, New York (1988) and Harlow & Lane, Using Antibodies, A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Press, New York (1999), which describe immunoassay methods and conditions that can be used to determine specific immunoreactivity (both of which are incorporated herein by reference).
[00076] As used in this document, the term “antibody conjugate” refers to a conjugate formed by an antibody molecule chemically linked to an additional molecule directly or via a ligand, for example, an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) in which the Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, page 39 / 88 31 / 74 of the drug molecule is the additional molecule.
[00077] The term “nucleic acid,” in this document, includes any compound and / or substance comprising a polymer of nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of a base, in particular, a purine or pyrimidine base (i.e., cytosine (C), guanine (G), adenine (A), thymine (T), or uracil (U)), a sugar (i.e., deoxyribose or ribose), and a phosphate group. Generally, a nucleic acid molecule is described as a sequence of bases, where the bases represent the primary structure (linear structure) of the nucleic acid molecule. The base sequence is usually expressed from 5' to 3'. In this document, the term “nucleic acid molecule” encompasses deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), including, for example, complementary DNA (cDNA) and genomic DNA; ribonucleic acid (RNA), in particular messenger RNA (mRNA); the synthetic forms of DNA or RNA; and polymers comprising a mixture of two or more of these molecules. The nucleic acid molecule can be linear or cyclic.Furthermore, the term “nucleic acid molecule” includes sense and antisense strands, as well as single-stranded and double-stranded forms. Additionally, the nucleic acid molecules described in this document may contain natural or non-natural nucleotides. Examples of non-natural nucleotides include modified nucleotide bases that exhibit derivative linkages in the sugar or phosphate chain, or chemically modified residues. The nucleic acid molecule also encompasses DNA and RNA molecules suitable for use as vectors for direct expression of the antibodies of this disclosure in vitro and / or in vivo, for example, in a host or patient. These DNA (e.g., cDNA) or RNA (e.g., mRNA) vectors may be modified or unmodified.For example, mRNA can be chemically modified to increase the stability of the RNA vector and / or the expression of the encoded molecule, so that the mRNA can be injected into an individual to produce antibodies in vivo (see, for example). Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, p. 40 / 88 32 / 74 example, Stadler et al., Nature Medicine 2017, published online on June 12, 2017, doi: 10.1038 / nm.4356 or EP 2 101 823 B1, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference).
[00078] As used in this document, the term “vector” includes nucleic acid vectors, for example, DNA vectors (e.g., plasmids), RNA vectors, viruses, or other suitable replicons (e.g., viral vectors). Several vectors have been developed for the delivery of polynucleotides encoding heterologous proteins into prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells. The expression vector of the present disclosure contains polynucleotide sequences as well as additional sequence elements, for example, to express proteins and / or integrate these polynucleotide sequences into the genome of mammalian cells. Some vectors that can be used to express the antibody and antibody fragment of the present disclosure include plasmids comprising regulatory sequences (e.g., promoter and enhancer regions) that direct gene transcription.Other useful vectors for expressing the antibody and antibody fragment contain polynucleotide sequences that increase the translation rate of these genes or improve the stability or nuclear export of the mRNA produced by gene transcription. These sequence elements include, for example, 5' and 3' untranslated regions, internal ribosome entry sites (IRESs), and polyadenylation signaling sites, so as to direct the effective transcription of the gene carried in the expression vector. The expression vector of this disclosure may also contain a polynucleotide encoding a marker to select cells that comprise such a vector. Examples of suitable markers include genes encoding antibiotic resistance (e.g., ampicillin, chloramphenicol, kanamycin, or nourseotricin).
[00079] The term “host cell” in this document refers to Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, page 41 / 88 33 / 74 a cell into which an exogenous nucleic acid has been introduced, including the progeny of such cell. Host cells include “transforming cells” and “transformed cells,” which include primary transformed cells and progeny derived from them, regardless of the number of passages. Progeny may not be exactly the same as progenitor cells in terms of nucleic acid content, and may contain mutations. Mutant progeny with the same biological function or activity that are screened or selected from primary transformed cells are included in this document.
[00080] The term “pharmaceutical composition”, in this document, refers to a formulation that exists in a form that allows the biological activity of the active ingredient contained therein to be effective, and that does not contain additional ingredients with unacceptable toxicity for an individual to whom the pharmaceutical composition is administered.

[00098] Animal immunization
[00099] 1.1.1. Protein immunization [000100] Five SJL mice (Nos. 2401-2405) or five MRL / lpr mice (Nos. 2136-2140) (acquired from Shanghai SLAC Laboratory Animal Co., Ltd.) aged between 6 and 8 weeks were used for immunization, and the mice were housed under SPF conditions. For primary immunization, an Fc-labeled protein from the extracellular region of human CDH6 (hCDH6 ECD-hFc, conventionally synthesized; the hCDH6 ECD sequence was derived from Uniprot No. P55285 (19-615), defined in SEQ ID NO: 1 below, conventionally synthesized) was mixed and Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, page 45 / 88 37 / 74 emulsified with TiterMax (purchased from Sigma, catalog number T2684) and CPG oligonucleotide (ODN 1826, synthesized by Sangon Biotech (Shanghai)) and then injected into the plantar pad and back. The hCDH6 ECD-hFc protein was mixed with Imject Alum (purchased from Thermo Fisher, catalog number 77161) and CPG and then injected into the abdominal cavity, and 50 μg of antigen were injected into each mouse. For the first booster immunization, the hCDH6 ECD-hFc protein, Imject Alum, and CPG were thoroughly mixed and then injected into the plantar pad and back. For the second booster immunization, the hCDH6 ECD-hFc protein, TiterMax, and CPG were mixed and emulsified and then injected into the back. Subsequent booster immunizations were performed alternately as the first and second booster immunizations. Each mouse was injected with 25 μg of antigen each time, with a 7-day interval between each immunization.Blood was collected from mice on day 5 after the second and fourth booster immunizations, and serum was separated. Serum titer of specific antibodies was determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). [000101] hCDH6 ECD, SEQ ID NO: 1 (Uniprot no.

The following day, the plate was washed 3 times with a plate washing solution (PBS + 0.01% (v / v) Tween 20) and a blocking buffer (PBS + 0.01% (v / v) Tween 20 + 2% (w / w) BSA) was added for blocking at room temperature for 2 h. The blocking buffer was discarded, and the plate was washed 3 times with a plate washing solution. Mouse serum was diluted with 1% BSA + PBS and added to the 96-well ELISA plate at 50 pL / well. After incubation at 37 °C for 2 h, the plate was washed 3 times with a plate washing solution.A horseradish peroxidase-labeled secondary antibody (Peroxidase AffiniPure Goat Anti-Mouse IgG (H+L), acquired from Jackson Immuno, catalog number 115035-003) diluted 1:5,000 was added at 50 μL / well. The plate was incubated at 37 °C for 1 h, then washed 3 times with a plate washing solution. A TMB substrate was added at 50 pL / well and incubated at room temperature for 10 min, and then a stopping solution (1.0 N HCl) was added at 50 pL / well. OD450 nm values were read using a microplate reader (Biotek). [000104] The experimental results of the ELISA are shown in Table 1. After 5 immunizations, the serum of the immunized mice showed relatively high titers of binding to the human CDH6 protein, demonstrating antigen-antibody reactions.

Cellular and protein immunization [000107] Three SJL mice (Nos. 2453, 2454, and 2456) or five MRL / lpr mice (Nos. 2448-2452) (acquired from Shanghai SLAC Laboratory Animal Co., Ltd.), aged 6 to 8 weeks, were used for immunization, and the mice were housed under SPF conditions. For primary immunization, HEK293T cells overexpressing the human CDH6 protein (HEK293T-hCDH6, conventionally constructed; HEK293T cells acquired from the Chinese Academy of Sciences Cell Bank, catalog No. SCSP-502) were mixed with TiterMax (acquired from Sigma, catalog No. T2684) and then injected intraperitoneally at 5x10⁶ cells per mouse. For the first Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, page 48 / 88 For the 40 / 74 booster immunization, HEK293T-hCDH6 and CPG cells were thoroughly mixed and then injected intraperitoneally; for the second booster immunization, HEK293T-hCDH6 and TiterMax cells were mixed and then injected intraperitoneally. Subsequent booster immunizations were performed alternately as the first and second booster immunizations. Each mouse was injected with 5x10⁶ cells at a time, with a 7-day interval between each immunization. Blood was collected from mice on day 5 after the second and fourth booster immunizations, and serum was separated. The specific antibody titer in the serum was determined by ELISA. Based on the titer of the mice, mice were immunized with hCDH6 ECD-hFc protein (the protein source was the same as in 1.1.1) after 5 cell immunizations (primary immunization + 4 booster immunizations). [000108] The serum titer of specific antibodies was determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The experimental results of the ELISA are shown in Table 2. After 5 cell immunizations and 3 protein immunizations, the serum of the immunized mice showed relatively high titers of binding to the human CDH6 protein, showing antigen-antibody reactions.

The mice were sacrificed 3 days later, and spleen cells and lymphocytes were collected. After centrifugation at 1,500 rpm / min, the supernatant was discarded, and ACK lysis buffer (purchased from Gibco, catalog number A1049201) was added to the cells to lyse the erythrocytes mixed in the cells to obtain a cell suspension. The cells were washed 3 times with DMEM basal medium (acquired from Gibco, catalog no. 10569044) at 1,500 rpm / min, then mixed with SP2 / 0 mouse myeloma cells (acquired from ATCC, catalog no. CRL-1581) at a viable cell count of 2:1, and the resulting mixture was subjected to cell fusion by an electrofusion method (instrument: BTX 2001+).The fused cells were diluted in DMEM medium containing 20% (w / w) fetal bovine serum (purchased from ExCell Bio, catalog number FND500), 1x HAT (purchased from Sigma, catalog number H0262-10VL), bovine insulin (purchased from Yeason, catalog number 40107ES25), and NEAA (purchased from Gibco, catalog number 11140050) and then added to a 96-well cell culture plate at 5x10⁴ cells / 200 μL / well. The plate was placed in a 5% (v / v) CO₂ incubator at 37 °C for culture. [000112] After 7 days, the supernatants from the melting plate were sorted Petition 870250077114, dated 08 / 29 / 2025, page 50 / 88 42 / 74 by ELISA to determine the binding activity to human CDH6 protein; the binding activity of the supernatant from the positive clone to monkey CDH6 protein, murine CDH6 protein, and cells overexpressing human CDH6 was determined by ELISA. According to the screening results, eligible positive clones were selected and subcloned using a semi-solid medium (purchased from Stemcell, catalog no. 03810). After 7 days, the cultured clones were individually selected and transferred to a 96-well culture plate and expanded in DMEM medium containing 10% (w / w) fetal bovine serum and 1x HT (purchased from Sigma, catalog no. H0137-10VL). After 1 day, a preliminary screening was performed using an ELISA method, and individual clones with binding activity to human CDH6 protein were selected and expanded in a 24-well plate for further culture.After 3 days, the culture supernatant was re-detected to evaluate binding activity to monkey CDH6 protein and murine CDH6 protein, as well as endocytic activity in cells overexpressing human CDH6. Based on the detection results of the samples in the 24-well plate, ideal clones were selected and expanded in DMEM medium containing 10% (w / w) FBS at 37 °C with 5% (v / v) CO2. The cells were cryopreserved in liquid nitrogen to obtain ideal hybridoma cells, which could be used for subsequent antibody production and purification.
