Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of tumor immunotherapy or diagnosis, more particularly, to antibodies specifically recognizing IL-13RA2 and uses thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Malignant gliomas (MG), including glioblastoma multiforme and glioblastoma, are a rare disease with 20000 new cases per year in the United States. According to the statistics of the American Brain Tumor Association, as of 2010, there are 140000 people in the United States suffering from malignant brain tumors. Although MG is a rare disease, its malignancy and mortality are very high. The existing standard treatment has very limited effect, and the five-year survival rate after surgery and radiotherapy is very low. For patients who relapse after surgery, there are also very few new treatment options. Therefore, developing new targets and new treatment methods is the urgent need of the majority of patients.

[0003] Interleukin-13 Receptor subunit alpha 2 (IL-13RA2) is a tumor-specific marker specifically highly expressed on the surface of human glioma and other malignant tumor cells (Dehinski et al., (1995) Clin. Cancer Res. 1, 1253-1258). Human IL-13RA2 as a therapeutic target for human glioma has attracted the attention of the US FDA as early as 1988, and the organization has prepared IL-13-PE38 targeting human IL-13RA2 and single-chain antibody scFv-PE fusion molecules targeting human IL-13RA2. Although IL-13-PE38 has achieved therapeutic effects in the treatment of malignant tumors such as glioma, head and neck tumors, ovarian cancer, and kidney cancer, and has been approved by the US FDA for clinical treatment, but during the treatment, IL-13-PE38 not only binds to human IL-13RA2 specifically expressed on the surface of tumor cells, but also binds to IL13-RA1 expressed on the surface of normal tissue cells, damaging normal tissues and cells. Due to the lack of strict targeting, the further application of IL-13-PE38 is limited.

[0004] The purpose of the present application is to find antibodies specifically targeting IL-13RA2 and to develop immune effector cells targeting IL-13RA2. SUMMARY

[0104] The present inventors have obtained antibodies, including single-chain antibodies and humanized antibodies, which specifically recognize IL-13RA2 through in-depth research and screening. The antibodies of the present application can be applied to the preparation of various targeted anti-tumor drugs and drugs for diagnosing tumors.

[0105] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present application, some terms are first defined.

[0106] The term "IL-13RA2", also CD213A2, herein refers to a subunit of the interleukin-13 receptor complex. It is a transmembrane protein consisting of 380 amino acid residues (NCBI Reference Sequence: NP_000631.1). It is similar to IL-13RA1 (NCBI Reference Sequence: NP_001551.1) in that it binds IL-13 very strongly, but lacks an intracellular signaling domain.

[0107] The term "antibody" herein refers to an antigen binding protein of the immune system, including intact full-length antibodies having an antigen binding region, and also includes fragments, or single chains thereof, such as single chain variable fragments (scFv), having an "antigen binding portion" or "antigen binding region", and also variants of the antibodies provided herein. Antibody fragments include, but are not limited to: (i) a Fab fragment, consisting of VL, VH, CL, and CH1 domains, including Fab' and Fab'-SH, (ii) a Fd fragment consisting of VH and CH1 domains, (iii) a Fv fragment consisting of the VL and VH domains of a single antibody; (iv) a dAb fragment (Ward et al., 1989, Nature 341 :544-546), which consists of a single variable region; (v) a F(ab')2 fragment, a bivalent fragment comprising two linked Fab fragments; (vi) a single chain Fv molecule (scFv), (vii) a bi-specific single chain Fv dimer (PCT / US92 / 09965); (viii) a "diabody" or "triabody", multivalent or multispecific fragments constructed by gene fusion; and (ix) a scFv genetically fused to the same or a different antibody.

[0108] The term "Fc" or "Fc region" herein includes a polypeptide comprising an antibody constant region excluding the first constant region immunoglobulin domain. Thus, Fc refers to the last two constant region immunoglobulin domains of IgA, IgD, and IgG, and the last three constant region immunoglobulin domains of IgE and IgM, and the flexible hinge N-terminal to these domains. For IgA and IgM, Fc can include the J chain. For IgG, Fc includes immunoglobulin domains Cγ2 and Cγ3 and the hinge between Cγ1 and Cγ2. While the boundaries of the Fc region can vary, the human IgG heavy chain Fc region is usually defined to include residues C226 or P230 to its carboxyl-terminus, wherein the numbering is according to the EU index of Kabat. For human IgG1, Fc is defined herein to include residues P232 to its carboxyl-terminus, wherein the numbering is according to the EU index in Kabat. Fc can refer to this region when isolated, or this region in the context of an Fc polypeptide, e.g., an antibody. The above "hinge" includes the flexible polypeptide comprising the amino acids between the first and second constant domains of an antibody. Structurally, the IgG CH1 domain ends at position EU 220, and the IgG CH2 domain begins at residue EU 237. Thus, for IgG, the antibody hinge is defined herein to include positions 221 (D221 of IgG1 ) to 231 (A231 of IgG1 ), wherein the numbering is according to the EU index of Kabat.

[0109] The term "variant" refers to a polypeptide having one or more activities with substantially the same amino acid sequence or encoded by substantially the same nucleotide sequence as an antibody provided herein. The variant has the same or similar activity as an antibody provided in the Examples herein.

[0110] A variant has at least one amino acid modification compared to the parent antibody. In particular embodiments, a variant sequence herein preferably has at least about 80%, most preferably at least about 90%, more preferably at least about 95%, more preferably at least about 98%, most preferably at least about 99% amino acid sequence identity to the sequence of the parent antibody. A variant can refer to the antibody itself, or to a composition comprising the parent antibody. The term "amino acid modification" includes amino acid substitution, addition and / or deletion, "amino acid substitution" means replacing an amino acid at a particular position in a parent polypeptide sequence with another amino acid, "amino acid insertion" means adding an amino acid at a particular position in a parent polypeptide sequence, and "amino acid deletion" or "deletion" means removing an amino acid at a particular position in a parent polypeptide sequence.

[0111] Amino acid modifications can be introduced by standard techniques known in the art, such as site-directed mutagenesis and PCR-mediated mutagenesis. Conservative substitutions are those substitutions that do not significantly affect the properties of the antibody. Families of amino acid residues having similar side chains have been defined in the art. These families include amino acids with basic side chains (e.g., lysine, arginine, histidine), acidic side chains (e.g., aspartic acid, glutamic acid), uncharged polar side chains (e.g., glycine, asparagine, serine, threonine, tyrosine, cysteine, tryptophan), nonpolar side chains (e.g., alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, methionine), beta- branched side chains (e.g., threonine, valine, isoleucine) and aromatic side chains (e.g., tyrosine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, histidine). Thus, one or more amino acid residues in a CDR region or in a framework region of an antibody of the application can be replaced with other amino acid residues of the same side chain family, and the altered antibody (variant antibody) can be tested for retained function.

[0112] The term "parent antibody" as used herein refers to an antibody provided herein or an antibody obtained by mutating, or affinity maturation, etc. of an antibody provided herein, and preferably refers to an antibody shown in the examples. The parent antibody can be a naturally occurring antibody, or a variant or engineered version of a naturally occurring antibody. The parent antibody can refer to the antibody itself, a composition comprising the parent antibody, or an amino acid sequence encoding the same.

[0113] The term "antigenic determinant" or "epitope" as used herein can consist of a contiguous sequence of the IL-13RA2 protein sequence or a non-contiguous three-dimensional structure of the IL-13RA2 protein sequence.

[0114] Antibodies against IL-13RA2

[0115] In the present disclosure, antigen binding proteins, including antibodies, with scFv-based antigen binding regions are described. ScFvs were selected from a human scFv phage display library using recombinant IL-13RA2. These molecules exhibit exquisite specificity. For example, the antibodies recognize only IL-13RA2 and not IL-13RA1. Unless otherwise specified, IL-13RA2 in the present disclosure refers to human IL-13RA2.

[0116] In some embodiments, the present application includes antibodies having scFv sequences fused to one or more heavy chain constant regions to form antibodies having human immunoglobulin Fc regions to create bivalent proteins, thereby increasing the overall avidity and stability of the antibody. In addition, the Fc portion allows for direct conjugation of other molecules, including but not limited to fluorescent dyes, cytotoxins, radioisotopes, etc., to the antibody, for example, for use in antigen quantitation studies, to immobilize the antibody for affinity measurements, for targeted delivery of therapeutic drugs, testing Fc-mediated cellular cytotoxicity using immune effector cells, and many other applications.

[0117] The results provided herein highlight the specificity, sensitivity, and utility of the antibodies of the present application when targeting IL-13RA2.

[0118] The molecules of the present application are based on the identification and selection of single chain variable fragments (scFv) using phage display, the amino acid sequences of which confer specificity to the molecules against IL-13RA2 and form the basis of all of the antigen binding proteins of the present disclosure. Thus, the scFv can be used to design a range of different "antibody" molecules, including, for example, full length antibodies, fragments thereof such as Fabs and F(ab')2, fusion proteins (including scFv_Fc), multivalent antibodies, i.e., antibodies having more than one specificity, either against the same antigen or different antigens, e.g., bispecific T cell engaging antibodies (BiTEs), triabodies, etc. (see Cuesta et al., Multivalent antibodies: when design surpasses evolution, Trends in Biotechnology 28:355-362, 2010).

[0119] In one embodiment where the antigen binding protein is a full length antibody, the heavy and light chains of the antibodies of the present application can be full length (e.g., the antibody can include at least one and preferably two complete heavy chains, and at least one and preferably two complete light chains) or can include an antigen binding portion (Fab, F(ab')2, Fv, or scFv). In other embodiments, the antibody heavy chain constant region is selected from, for example, IgGl, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgM, IgAl, IgA2, IgD, and IgE. The choice of antibody type will depend on the immune effector function that the designed antibody is intended to elicit. Suitable amino acid sequences of the constant regions of the various immunoglobulin isotypes and methods for producing a wide variety of antibodies are known to those skilled in the art when constructing recombinant immunoglobulins.

[0120] In a first aspect, the present application provides an antibody specifically recognizing IL-13RA2, which has a binding affinity EC50 of less than 100 nM, preferably less than 10 nM, more preferably 0.1-1 nM, most preferably 0.3-0.6 nM to U251 cells stably transfected with human IL-13RA2.

In another preferred embodiment, the antibody provided by the present application binding to IL-13RA2 comprises a light chain CDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 13, and / or a light chain CDR2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 14, and / or a light chain CDR3 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 15 or 16. In another preferred embodiment, the antibody provided by the present application binding to IL-13RA2 comprises a heavy chain CDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 9, and / or a heavy chain CDR2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 10, and / or a heavy chain CDR3 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 11 or 12, and a light chain CDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 13, and / or a light chain CDR2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 14, and / or a light chain CDR3 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 15 or 16. Preferably, the antibody provided by the present application binding to IL-13RA2 comprises a HCDR1 of SEQ ID NO: 9, a HCDR2 of SEQ ID NO: 10, a HCDR3 of SEQ ID NO: 11, and a LCDR1 of SEQ ID NO: 13, a LCDR2 of SEQ ID NO: 14, a LCDR3 of SEQ ID NO: 15; or a HCDR1 of SEQ ID NO: 9, a HCDR2 of SEQ ID NO: 10, a HCDR3 of SEQ ID NO: 12, and a LCDR1 of SEQ ID NO: 13, a LCDR2 of SEQ ID NO: 14, a LCDR3 of SEQ ID NO: 16.

[0122] More preferably, the antibody that binds IL-13RA2 comprises a HCDR1 of SEQ ID NO: 9, a HCDR2 of SEQ ID NO: 10, a HCDR3 of SEQ ID NO: 12, and a LCDR1 of SEQ ID NO: 13, a LCDR2 of SEQ ID NO: 14, a LCDR3 of SEQ ID NO: 16.

[0123] In another aspect, the present application provides an antibody that binds IL-13RA2, whose heavy chain variable region is selected from the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2 or SEQ ID NO: 6, or a variant of either sequence.

[0124] In another aspect, the present application provides an antibody or fragment thereof that binds IL-13RA2, which comprises a light chain variable region sequence selected from SEQ ID NO: 4 or SEQ ID NO: 8.

[0125] Given that each of these heavy and light chain variable region sequences can bind IL-13RA2, the heavy and light chain variable region sequences can be "mixed and matched" to generate anti-IL-13RA2 binding molecules of the present application.

[0126] In another aspect, the present application provides variants of the antibodies or fragments thereof that bind IL-13RA2. Thus the present application provides antibodies or fragments thereof having a heavy chain and / or light chain variable region that is at least 80% identical to the sequence of the variable region of the heavy chain or light chain. Preferably, the amino acid sequence identity of the heavy chain and / or light chain variable region is at least 85%, more preferably at least 90%, most preferably at least 95%, especially 96%, more especially 97%, even more especially 98%, most especially 99%, including for example 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, and 100%. Variants can be obtained by methods such as yeast library screening, phage library screening, point mutagenesis, etc., using the antibodies described herein as the parent antibodies.

[0127] In another aspect, the present application provides antibodies that recognize the same epitope as the previously described anti-IL-13RA2 antibodies.

[0128] Properties of anti-IL-13RA2 antibodies

[0129] Standard assays for assessing the binding ability of antibodies, such as anti-IL-13RA2 antibodies, are known in the art, including for example ELISA, biacore, Western blot, and flow cytometry analysis. Suitable assays are described in detail in the Examples.

[0130] Nucleic acids, vectors, and host cells

[0131] The present application also provides isolated nucleic acids encoding antibodies and fragments thereof that bind IL-13RA2, vectors, and host cells comprising the nucleic acids or vectors. The nucleic acids can be in whole cells, in a cell lysate, or in a partially purified or substantially pure form.

[0132] Nucleic acids of the present application can be obtained using standard molecular biology techniques, for example, cDNAs encoding light and heavy chains of an antibody, or VH and VL segments, can be obtained by standard PCR amplification or cDNA cloning techniques. For antibodies obtained from an immunoglobulin gene library (e.g., using phage display techniques), one or more nucleic acids encoding the antibody can be recovered from the library. Methods of introducing foreign nucleic acids into host cells are generally known in the art and can vary depending on the host cell used.

[0133] Preferred nucleic acid molecules of the present application are those encoding a light chain variable region selected from SEQ ID NO: 3 or SEQ ID NO: 7, and / or a heavy chain variable region selected from SEQ ID NO: 1 or SEQ ID NO: 5. More preferred are nucleic acid molecules comprising the heavy chain sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, and comprising the light chain sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3 or comprising the heavy chain sequence of SEQ ID NO: 5, and comprising the light chain sequence of SEQ ID NO: 7.

[0134] For expression of a protein, nucleic acids encoding antibodies of the present application can be integrated into an expression vector. A variety of expression vectors can be used for protein expression. Expression vectors can include self-replicating extra-chromosomal vectors, or vectors that integrate into the host genome. Expression vectors for use in the present application include, but are not limited to, those that enable expression of a protein in mammalian cells, bacteria, insect cells, yeast, and in vitro systems. A variety of expression vectors are commercially or otherwise available, as known in the art. Antibodies can be used in the present application for expression.

[0135] Immunoconjugates

[0136] The present application also provides multifunctional immunoconjugates comprising an antibody described herein and further comprising at least one other type of functional molecule. The functional molecule is selected from, but not limited to, a molecule targeting a tumor surface marker, a molecule inhibiting a tumor, a molecule targeting a surface marker of an immune cell, or a detectable label. The antibody and the functional molecule can form a conjugate by covalent linkage, coupling, attachment, cross-linking, or the like.

[0137] As a preferred embodiment, the immunoconjugate can comprise: an antibody of the application and at least one molecule targeting a tumor surface marker or one molecule inhibiting a tumor. The molecule inhibiting a tumor can be an anti-tumor cytokine or an anti-tumor toxin; preferably, the cytokine includes, but is not limited to: IL-2, IL-7, IL-12, IL-15, type I IFN, TNF-alpha. In a particular embodiment, the molecule targeting a tumor surface marker is a molecule targeting the same tumor surface marker as the antibody of the application. For example, the molecule targeting a tumor surface marker can be an antibody or a ligand binding to a tumor surface marker, which can synergize with the antibody of the application to more precisely target tumor cells. Alternatively,

[0138] As a preferred embodiment, the immunoconjugate can comprise: an antibody of the application and a detectable label. The detectable label includes, but is not limited to: a fluorescent label, a chromogenic label; such as: an enzyme, a prosthetic group, a fluorescent material, a luminescent material, a bioluminescent material, a radioactive material, a positron emitting metal, and a non-radioactive paramagnetic metal ion. More than one label can be included. The label used to label the antibody depends on the particular detection / assay / diagnostic technique and / or method used, such as immunohistochemical staining of tissue samples, flow cytometry, etc. Suitable labels for detection / assay / diagnostic techniques and / or methods known in the art are well known to those skilled in the art.

[0139] As a preferred embodiment, the immunoconjugate can comprise: an antibody of the application and a molecule targeting a surface marker of an immune cell. The molecule targeting a surface marker of an immune cell can be an antibody or a ligand binding to a surface marker of an immune cell, which is capable of recognizing an immune cell, which carries the antibody of the application to the immune cell, while the antibody of the application can target the immune cell to the tumor cell, thereby triggering the immune cell to specifically kill the tumor. The surface marker of the immune cell can be selected from CD3, CD16, CD28, more preferably, the antibody binding to the surface marker of the immune cell is an anti-CD3 antibody. The immune cell can be selected from T cells, NK cells, NKT cells.

[0140] As one way of chemically producing an immunoconjugate by direct or indirect (e.g. via a linker) conjugation, the immunoconjugate can be produced as a fusion protein comprising an antibody of the application and a suitable additional protein. The fusion protein can be produced recombinantly by constructing a nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding the antibody in frame with a nucleotide sequence encoding the suitable label and subsequently expressing the nucleic acid molecule, as known in the art.

[0141] In another aspect, the present application provides nucleic acid molecules encoding at least one antibody, functional variant thereof, or immunoconjugate of the present application. Once the relevant sequences are obtained, they can be obtained in large quantities using recombinant methods. This is typically done by cloning them into vectors, which are then transferred into cells, and then isolating the relevant sequences from the propagated host cells by conventional methods.

[0142] In another aspect, the present application provides a chimeric antigen receptor comprising an extracellular binding domain, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular domain. As used herein, the term "chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)" refers to a tumor antigen binding domain fused to an intracellular signaling domain that is capable of activating a T cell. Typically, the extracellular binding domain of a CAR is derived from a mouse or humanized or human monoclonal antibody.

[0143] The extracellular binding domain is an antibody as described herein, non-limiting examples of which include a single chain variable fragment (scFv) derived from an antibody, a fragment antigen binding region (Fab) selected from a library, a single domain fragment, or a natural ligand that engages its cognate receptor. In some embodiments, the extracellular antigen binding region can comprise a scFv, a Fab, or a natural ligand, as well as any derivatives thereof. The extracellular antigen binding region can refer to a molecule other than a whole antibody, which can comprise a portion of a whole antibody and can bind to an antigen to which a whole antibody binds. Examples of antibody fragments can include, but are not limited to, Fv, Fab, Fab', Fab'-SH, F(ab')2; diabodies, linear antibodies; single-chain antibody molecules (e.g., scFv); and multispecific antibodies formed from antibody fragments.

[0144] The extracellular antigen binding region, such as a scFv, a Fab, or a natural ligand, can be part of a CAR that determines antigen specificity. The extracellular antigen binding region can bind to any complementary target. The extracellular antigen binding region can be derived from an antibody of a known variable region sequence. The extracellular antigen binding region can be obtained from antibody sequences obtained from available mouse hybridomas. Alternatively, the extracellular antigen binding region can be obtained from whole-exome sequencing of tumor cells or primary cells, such as tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs).

[0145] In some embodiments, the binding specificity of the extracellular antigen binding region can be determined by complementarity determining regions or CDRs, such as light chain CDRs or heavy chain CDRs. In many cases, the binding specificity can be determined by both light chain CDRs and heavy chain CDRs. A given combination of heavy chain CDRs and light chain CDRs can provide a given binding pocket that can confer greater affinity and / or specificity for an antigen compared to other reference antigens.

[0146] In certain aspects of any of the embodiments disclosed herein, the extracellular antigen binding region, e.g., scFv, can comprise light chain CDRs specific for an antigen. The light chain CDRs can be the complementarity determining regions of the light chain of an antibody, e.g., scFv. The light chain CDRs can comprise a contiguous sequence of amino acid residues, or two or more contiguous sequences of amino acid residues separated by non-complementarity determining regions (e.g., framework regions). In some embodiments, the light chain CDRs can comprise two or more light chain CDRs, which can be referred to as light chain CDR-1, CDR-2, etc. In some embodiments, the light chain CDRs can comprise three light chain CDRs, which can be referred to as light chain CDR-1, light chain CDR-2, and light chain CDR-3, respectively. In some examples, a set of CDRs present on a common light chain can be collectively referred to as light chain CDRs.

[0147] In certain aspects of any of the embodiments disclosed herein, the extracellular antigen binding region, e.g., scFv, can comprise heavy chain CDRs specific for an antigen. The heavy chain CDRs can be the complementarity determining regions of the heavy chain of an antibody, e.g., scFv. The heavy chain CDRs can comprise a contiguous sequence of amino acid residues, or two or more contiguous sequences of amino acid residues separated by non-complementarity determining regions (e.g., framework regions). In some embodiments, the heavy chain CDRs can comprise two or more heavy chain CDRs, which can be referred to as heavy chain CDR-1, CDR-2, etc. In some embodiments, the heavy chain CDRs can comprise three heavy chain CDRs, which can be referred to as heavy chain CDR-1, heavy chain CDR-2, and heavy chain CDR-3, respectively. In some embodiments, a set of CDRs present on a common heavy chain can be collectively referred to as heavy chain CDRs.

[0148] By using genetic engineering, the extracellular antigen binding region can be modified in various ways. In some embodiments, the extracellular antigen binding region can be mutated, such that the extracellular antigen binding region can be selected to have a higher affinity for its target. In some embodiments, the affinity of the extracellular antigen binding region for its target can be optimized for targets that can be expressed at low levels on normal tissues. This optimization can be performed to minimize potential toxicity. In other cases, a clone of the extracellular antigen binding region with a higher affinity for the membrane-bound form of the target can be preferred over its counterpart for the soluble form. This modification can be made because different levels of the soluble form of the target can also be detected, and their targeting can cause undesirable toxicity.

[0149] In some embodiments, the extracellular antigen binding region includes a hinge or spacer region. The terms hinge and spacer can be used interchangeably. The hinge can be considered a part of the CAR that serves to provide flexibility to the extracellular antigen binding region. In some embodiments, the hinge can be useful for detecting the CAR on the cell surface of a cell, particularly when the antibody that detects the extracellular antigen binding region does not work or is available. For example, the length of the hinge derived from an immunoglobulin can need to be optimized depending on where the extracellular antigen binding region targets an epitope on the target.

[0150] In some embodiments, the hinge can not be of an immunoglobulin, but of another molecule, such as the natural hinge of a CD8a molecule. The CD8a hinge can contain cysteine and proline residues known to play a role in the interaction of the CD8 co-receptor and MHC molecules. The cysteine and proline residues can affect the performance of the CAR.

[0151] The CAR hinge can be adjustable in size. This topography of the immunological synapse between the immune response cell and the target cell also defines the distance that cannot be functionally bridged by the CAR due to a membrane distal epitope on the cell surface target molecule, i.e. the synapse distance is not brought to the proximity of the signal transduction using a short-hinge CAR. Likewise, a membrane proximal CAR target antigen epitope only sees signal output in the context of a long-hinge CAR. The hinge can be adjusted depending on the extracellular antigen binding region used. The hinge can be of any length.

[0152] The transmembrane domain can anchor the CAR to the plasma membrane of the cell. The natural transmembrane portion of CD28 can be used in the CAR. In other cases, the natural transmembrane portion of CD8a can also be used in the CAR. The “CD8” can be a protein having at least 85, 90, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, or 100% identity to NCBI Reference Number: NP_001759 or a fragment thereof having stimulatory activity. The “CD8 nucleic acid molecule” can be a polynucleotide encoding a CD8 polypeptide, in some cases, the transmembrane region can be the natural transmembrane portion of CD28, the “CD28” can refer to a protein having at least 85, 90, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, or 100% identity to NCBI Reference Number: NP_006130 or a fragment thereof having stimulatory activity. The “CD28 nucleic acid molecule” can be a polynucleotide encoding a CD28 polypeptide. In some embodiments, the transmembrane portion can comprise a CD8a region.

[0153] The (cyto)intrinsic signaling region of a CAR can be responsible for activating at least one of the effector functions of the immune response cell into which the CAR has been placed. A CAR can induce effector functions of a T cell, for example, cytolytic activity or helper activity, including secretion of cytokines. The term cytointrinsic signaling region thus refers to the protein portion that transduces the effector function signal and directs the cell to perform a specific function. While it is generally possible to use the entire cytointrinsic signaling region, in many cases it is not necessary to use the entire chain of signaling domains. In some embodiments, truncated portions of the cytointrinsic signaling region are used. In some embodiments, the term cytointrinsic signaling region is thus intended to include any truncated portion of the cytointrinsic signaling region that is sufficient to transduce the effector function signal.

[0154] Preferred examples of signaling domains for use in a CAR can include the cytoplasmic sequences of the T cell receptor (TCR) and co-receptors that synergize to initiate signal transduction upon target-receptor binding, as well as any derivative or variant sequences of these and any synthetic sequences of these sequences that have the same functionality.

[0155] In some embodiments, the cytointrinsic signaling region can contain a signal motif of a known immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM). Examples of ITAMs containing cytoplasmic signaling sequences include those derived from TCR zeta, FcR gamma, FcR beta, CD3 gamma, CD3 delta, CD3 epsilon, CD5, CD22, CD79a, CD79b, and CD66d. However, in preferred embodiments, the cytointrinsic signaling domain is derived from the CD3 zeta chain.

[0156] An example of a T cell signaling domain containing one or more ITAM motifs is the CD3 zeta domain, also known as T cell receptor T3 zeta chain or CD247. This domain is part of the T cell receptor-CD3 complex and plays an important role in coupling antigen recognition by several intracellular signal transduction pathways to the primary activation of T cells. As used herein, CD3 zeta primarily refers to the human CD3 zeta and its isoforms as known from Swissprot entry P20963, including proteins with essentially the same sequence. Again, as part of a chimeric antigen receptor, it is reiterated that the entire T cell receptor T3 zeta chain is not required and any derivative thereof comprising the signaling domain of the T cell receptor T3 zeta chain is suitable, including any functional equivalent thereof.

[0157] The intracellular signaling domain can be selected from any one of the domains of Table 1. In some embodiments, the domain can be modified such that the identity to the reference domain can be from about 50% to about 100%. Any one of the domains of Table 1 can be modified such that the modified form can comprise about 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, or up to about 100% identity.

[0158] The intracellular signaling region of the CAR can further comprise one or more costimulatory domains. The intracellular signaling region can comprise a single costimulatory domain, such as the zeta chain (first generation CAR) or its association with CD28 or 4-1BB (second generation CAR). In other examples, the intracellular signaling region can comprise two costimulatory domains, such as CD28 / OX40 or CD28 / 4-1BB (third generation).

[0159] These costimulatory domains, in conjunction with the intracellular signaling domain such as CD8, can produce downstream activation of kinase pathways, supporting gene transcription and functional cellular responses. The costimulatory domains of the CAR can activate proximal signaling proteins associated with CD28 (phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase) or 4-1BB / OX40 (TNF-receptor associated factor adaptor protein) pathways, as well as MAPK and Akt activation.

[0160] In certain instances, the signal generated by the CAR can be combined with an accessory or costimulatory signal. For the costimulatory signal domain, the chimeric antigen receptor-like complex can be designed to include several possible costimulatory signal domains. As is well known in the art, in naive T cells, the sole engagement of the T cell receptor is insufficient to induce full activation of the T cell to a cytotoxic T cell. Complete productive T cell activation requires a second costimulatory signal. Several receptors have been reported to provide costimulation for T cell activation, including but not limited to CD28, OX40, CD27, CD2, CD5, ICAM-1, LFA-1 (CD11a / CD18), 4-1BBL, MyD88, and 4-1BB. The signaling pathways used by these costimulatory molecules are all able to synergize with the primary T cell receptor activation signal. The signals provided by these costimulatory signaling regions can synergize with the primary effector activation signal derived from one or more ITAM motifs (e.g., CD3zeta signaling domain) and can fulfill the requirements for T cell activation.

[0161] In some embodiments, the addition of a costimulatory domain to the chimeric antigen receptor-like complex can enhance the efficacy and durability of the engineered cell. In other embodiments, the T cell signaling domain and the costimulatory domain are fused to one another to constitute the signaling region.

[0162] Table 4. Costimulatory domains

[0163]

[0164] Chimeric antigen receptors bind target antigens. Target antigens can be obtained or isolated from a variety of sources when assaying T cell activation in vitro or ex vivo. As used herein, a target antigen is an antigen or an immunological epitope on an antigen that is critical for immune recognition and ultimate elimination or control of a pathogenic agent or disease state in a mammal. Immune recognition can be cellular and / or humoral. In the case of intracellular pathogens and cancer, immune recognition can be, for example, a T lymphocyte response.

[0165] In some embodiments, target antigens include antigens associated with a precancerous or proliferative state. Target antigens can also be associated with or arise from cancer. For example, in some embodiments, the chimeric antigen receptors of the present application recognize and bind to tumor antigens including IL-13RA2 as previously described herein.

[0166] In some embodiments, the chimeric antigen receptors herein, when present on the plasma membrane of a cell, and when bound to and activated by its target, the cell expressing the chimeric antigen receptor can be cytotoxic to a cell bearing the target. For example, in some embodiments, the chimeric antigen receptor is present on a cytotoxic cell, such as an NK cell or a cytotoxic T cell, and upon activation by the target, can increase the toxicity of the cytotoxic cell to a target cell. In some embodiments, the chimeric antigen receptors herein can increase the effect of an immunoresponsive cell on a cell expressing IL-13RA2, such as a tumor cell. In some embodiments, a cell expressing a chimeric antigen receptor described herein has at least a 10%, at least a 15%, at least a 20%, at least a 25%, at least a 30%, at least a 35%, at least a 40%, at least a 45%, at least a 50%, at least a 55%, at least a 60%, at least a 65%, at least a 70%, at least a 75%, at least a 80%, at least a 85%, at least a 90%, at least a 95%, at least a 1-fold, at least a 1.5-fold, at least a 2-fold, at least a 2.5-fold, at least a 3-fold, at least a 3.5-fold, at least a 4-fold, at least a 4.5-fold, at least a 5-fold, at least a 6-fold, at least a 7-fold, at least a 8-fold, at least a 9-fold, or at least a 10-fold greater cytotoxic effect on a cell expressing IL-13RA2 than a cell not expressing a chimeric antigen receptor herein.

[0167] A transgene encoding a receptor or CAR for a target binding antigen can be incorporated into a cell. For example, the transgene can be incorporated into an immunoresponsive cell, such as a T cell. When inserted into a cell, the transgene can be a complementary DNA (cDNA) segment, which is a copy of messenger RNA (mRNA), or the gene itself (with or without introns) in its original region of genomic DNA.

[0168] Nucleic acids such as DNA encoding a transgene sequence can be randomly inserted into the chromosome of a cell. Random integration can result from any method of introducing nucleic acids (e.g., DNA) into a cell. For example, the method can include, but is not limited to, electroporation, sonication, use of a gene gun, lipofection, calcium phosphate transfection, use of dendrimers, microinjection, and use of viral vectors including adenovirus, AAV, and retroviral vectors, and / or type II ribozymes.

[0169] DNA encoding a transgene can also be designed to include a reporter gene, so that the presence of the transgene or its expression product can be detected by activation of the reporter gene. Any reporter gene can be used, such as those described above. Cells containing the transgene can be selected by selecting cells in cell culture in which the reporter gene has been activated.

[0170] Expression of the CAR can be verified by expression assays, such as qPCR or by measuring the level of RNA. Expression levels can also be indicative of copy number. For example, if the expression level is very high, this can indicate that more than one copy of the CAR was integrated into the genome. Alternatively, high expression can indicate that the transgene was integrated in a highly transcribed region, such as near a highly expressed promoter. Expression can also be verified by measuring protein levels, such as by Western blot.

[0171] In some embodiments, the immunoresponsive cells of the application can comprise one or more transgenes. The one or more transgenes can express a CAR protein that recognizes and binds to at least one epitope on an antigen or to a mutated epitope on an antigen. The CAR can be a functional CAR. In some embodiments the immunoresponsive cells of the application can comprise one or more CARs, or it can comprise a single CAR and a secondary engineered receptor.

[0172] In some embodiments, the transgene can encode a suicide gene. CAR immune responsive cells cause tumor regression but can be accompanied by toxicity, as evidenced by many effective treatments of cancer patients. In some embodiments, when the target antigen is shared in normal tissues and tumor cells, CAR immune responsive cells can not be able to distinguish between tumor and normal tissue ("on-target / off- target toxicity"). In other cases, systemic perturbations of the immune system can occur, known as cytokine release syndrome (CRS). The CRS can include systemic inflammatory response syndrome or cytokine storm, which can be a consequence of the rapid expansion of CAR immune responsive cells in vivo. CRS is a condition characterized by fever and hypotension, which can lead to multiple organ failure in severe cases. In most cases, the toxicity is associated with the in vivo expansion of infused CAR immune responsive cells, which can cause overall perturbations of the immune system, as well as the release of high levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as TNFa and IL-6. A suicide gene can induce elimination of CAR immune responsive cells. A suicide gene can be any gene that induces apoptosis in the CAR immune responsive cells. The suicide gene can be encoded in the viral vector along with the antigen-binding receptor. Encoding a suicide gene allows for the mitigation or complete abrogation of toxicity caused by the in vivo expansion of infused CAR immune responsive cells in specific situations.

[0173] In some embodiments, CAR immune responsive cells to antigens present in normal tissues can be generated such that they transiently express the CAR, for example, after electroporation of mRNA encoding the receptor. Furthermore, the significant effort to further enhance CAR immune responsive cells by including a safety switch, in the case of severe on-target toxicity, can greatly eliminate CAR immune responsive cells.

[0174] In some embodiments, the vector encoding the CAR can be combined with a safety switch such as an inducible caspase-9 gene (activated by a dimeric chemical inducer) or a truncated form of the EGF receptor R (activated by the monoclonal antibody cetuximab) or RQR8.

[0175] One or more transgenes used herein can be from different species. For example, one or more transgenes can comprise a human gene, a mouse gene, a rat gene, a pig gene, a cow gene, a dog gene, a cat gene, a monkey gene, a chimpanzee gene, or any combination thereof. For example, the transgene can be from a human having human genetic sequences. One or more transgenes can comprise a human gene. In some cases, one or more transgenes are not adenoviral genes.

[0176] As described above, the transgene can be inserted into the genome of the immunoresponsive cell in a random or site-specific manner. For example, the transgene can be inserted into a random site in the genome of the immune cell. These transgenes can be functional, e.g., fully functional when inserted anywhere in the genome. For example, the transgene can encode its own promoter, or can be inserted into a position that is under the control of an internal promoter. Alternatively, the transgene can be inserted into a gene, e.g., an intron of a gene or an exon, promoter, or non-coding region of a gene. The transgene can be inserted such that the insertion disrupts a gene, e.g., an endogenous immune checkpoint.

[0177] In some embodiments, more than one copy of the transgene can be inserted into multiple random sites within the genome. For example, multiple copies can be inserted into random sites in the genome. This can result in increased overall expression compared to a single random insertion of the transgene. Alternatively, one copy of the transgene can be inserted into a gene, and another copy of the transgene can be inserted into a different gene. The transgene can be targeted such that it can be inserted into a specific site in the genome of the immunoresponsive cell.

[0178] In some embodiments, the polynucleic acid comprising a sequence encoding a receptor that binds an antigen can be in the form of a plasmid vector. The plasmid vector can comprise a promoter. In some cases, the promoter can be constitutive. In some embodiments, the promoter is inducible. The promoter can be or can be derived from CMV, U6, MND, or EF1a. In some embodiments, the promoter can be adjacent to the CAR sequence. In some embodiments, the plasmid vector further comprises a splice acceptor. In some embodiments, the splice acceptor can be adjacent to the CAR sequence. The promoter sequence can be a PKG or MND promoter. The MND promoter can be a synthetic promoter containing the U3 region of the MoMuLV LTR modified with the myeloblastosis-associated virus enhancer.

[0179] In some embodiments, the polynucleic acid encoding the receptor of interest can be designed for delivery to a cell by non-viral techniques. In some cases, the polynucleic acid can be a good manufacturing practice (GMP) compatible reagent.

[0180] Expression of the polynucleic acid encoding the receptor or CAR that binds an antigen of interest can be controlled by one or more promoters. The promoter can be ubiquitous, constitutive (unrestricted promoter, allowing continuous transcription of the associated gene), tissue-specific, or inducible. Expression of a transgene inserted adjacent to or proximal to a promoter can be regulated. For example, the transgene can be inserted near or next to a ubiquitous promoter. Some ubiquitous promoters can be a CAGGS promoter, a hCMV promoter, a PGK promoter, a SV40 promoter, or a ROSA26 promoter.

[0181] The promoter can be endogenous or exogenous. For example, one or more transgenes can be inserted adjacent to or proximal to an endogenous or exogenous ROSA26 promoter. Further, the promoter can be specific for an immunoresponsive cell. For example, one or more transgenes can be inserted adjacent to or proximal to a pig ROSA26 promoter.

[0182] A tissue-specific promoter or a cell-specific promoter can be used to control the location of expression. For example, one or more transgenes can be inserted adjacent to or proximal to a tissue-specific promoter. The tissue-specific promoter can be a FABP promoter, a Lck promoter, a CamKII promoter, a CD19 promoter, a keratin promoter, an albumin promoter, an aP2 promoter, an insulin promoter, an MCK promoter, a MyHC promoter, a WAP promoter, or a Col2A promoter.

[0183] Inducible promoters can also be used. If desired, these inducible promoters can be turned on and off by the addition or removal of an inducer. It is contemplated that the inducible promoter can be, but is not limited to, Lac, tac, trc, trp, araBAD, phoA, recA, proU, cst-1, tetA, cadA, nar, PL, cspA, T7, VHB, Mx, and / or Trex.

[0184] The term "inducible promoter" as used herein is a controlled promoter that does not express or expresses at a low level a gene operably linked thereto until desired conditions are met, and expresses or expresses at a high level a gene operably linked thereto when the desired conditions are met.

[0185] Further, although not necessary for expression, the transgene sequence can also include transcriptional or translational regulatory sequences, such as promoters, enhancers, insulators, internal ribosome entry sites, sequences encoding 2A peptides, and / or polyadenylation signals.

[0186] In some embodiments, the transgene encodes a receptor or CAR that targets a binding antigen, wherein the transgene is inserted into a safe harbor such that the binding antigen- expressing receptor is expressed. In some embodiments, the transgene is inserted into the PD1 and / or CTLA-4 locus. In other cases, the transgene is inserted randomly into the cell with lentiviral delivery, while the PD1- or CTLA-4 specific nucleases can be provided as mRNA. In some embodiments, the transgene is delivered by a viral vector system such as retrovirus, AAV, or adenovirus, and mRNA encoding a nuclease specific for the safe harbor (e.g., AAVS1, CCR5, albumin, or HPRT). The cells can also be treated with mRNA encoding a PD1- and / or CTLA-4 specific nuclease. In some embodiments, the polynucleotide encoding a CAR is provided with a viral delivery system along with mRNA encoding a HPRT specific nuclease and a PD1- or CTLA-4 specific nuclease. CARs that can be used with the methods and compositions disclosed herein can include all types of these chimeric proteins.

[0187] In some embodiments, a retroviral vector (gamma-retroviral or lentiviral vector) can be used to introduce the transgene into the immunoresponsive cell. For example, a transgene encoding a CAR or any receptor that targets a binding antigen or a variant or fragment thereof can be cloned into a retroviral vector and can be driven by its endogenous promoter, the retroviral long terminal repeat, or a promoter specific to the target cell type. Non-viral vectors can also be used. Non-viral vector delivery systems can include DNA plasmids, naked nucleic acids, and nucleic acids complexed with delivery vehicles such as liposomes or poloxamers.

[0188] A number of viral-based systems have been developed for the transfer of genes into mammalian cells. For example, retroviruses provide a convenient platform for gene delivery systems. A selected gene can be inserted into a vector and packaged in retroviral particles using techniques known in the art. Vectors derived from retroviruses such as lentivirus are suitable tools to achieve long-term gene transfer as they allow long-term stable integration of the transgene and its propagation in daughter cells. Lentiviral vectors have the added advantage over vectors derived from retroviruses such as murine leukemia virus in that they can transduce non-proliferating cells. They also have the added advantage of low immunogenicity. An advantage of adenoviral vectors is that they do not integrate into the genome of the target cell, thereby bypassing negative integration-related events.

[0189] The cells can be transfected with a transgene encoding the antigen-binding receptor. The transgene concentration can be from about 100 picograms to about 50 micrograms. In some embodiments, the amount of nucleic acid (e.g., ssDNA, dsDNA, or RNA) introduced into the cells can be varied to optimize transfection efficiency and / or cell viability. For example, 1 microgram of dsDNA can be added to each cell sample for electroporation. In some embodiments, the amount of nucleic acid (e.g., double stranded DNA) required for optimal transfection efficiency and / or cell viability varies depending on the cell type. In some embodiments, the amount of nucleic acid (e.g., dsDNA) used for each sample can directly correspond to the transfection efficiency and / or cell viability. For example, a range of transfection concentrations. The transgene encoded by the vector can integrate into the cell genome. In some embodiments, the transgene encoded by the vector integrates in the forward direction. In other cases, the transgene encoded by the vector integrates in the reverse direction.

[0190] Delivery of vectors to an individual patient in vivo is typically by systemic administration (e.g., intravenous, intraperitoneal, intramuscular, subcutaneous, or intracranial infusion) or local application, as described below. Alternatively, vectors can be delivered to cells ex vivo, e.g., cells removed from an individual patient (e.g., lymphocytes, T cells, bone marrow aspirate, tissue biopsy), and the cells are then typically reimplanted into the patient after selection of cells that have incorporated the vector. Cells can be expanded before or after selection.

[0191] Suitable immunoresponsive cells for expressing the antigen-binding receptor can be cells that are autologous or non-autologous to the individual in need.

[0192] Suitable sources of immunoresponsive cells can be obtained from an individual. In some cases, T cells can be obtained. The T cells can be obtained from a number of sources, including PBMCs, bone marrow, lymph node tissue, umbilical cord blood, thymus tissue, and tissue from sites of infection, ascites, pleural effusion, spleen tissue, and tumors. In some cases, T cells can be obtained from blood collected from the individual using any number of techniques known to those of skill in the art, such as Ficoll™ separation. In some embodiments, cells from the circulating blood of an individual are obtained by apheresis. Apheresis products typically contain lymphocytes, including T cells, monocytes, granulocytes, B cells, other nucleated white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets. In some embodiments, the cells collected by apheresis can be washed to remove the plasma fraction and place the cells in a suitable buffer or medium for subsequent processing steps.

[0193] Alternatively, cells can be derived from a healthy donor, from a patient diagnosed with cancer or a patient diagnosed as infected. In some embodiments, the cells can be part of a mixed cell population having different phenotypic characteristics. Cell lines can also be obtained from transformed T cells according to the aforementioned methods. Cells can also be obtained from a cell therapy bank. Modified cells resistant to immunosuppressive therapy can be obtained by any of the methods described herein. Suitable cell populations can also be selected prior to modification. Engineered cell populations can also be selected after modification. The engineered cells can be used for autologous transplantation. Alternatively, the cells can be used for allogeneic transplantation. In some embodiments, the cells are administered to the same patient as the sample used to identify cancer-related target sequences. In other cases, the cells are administered to a different patient than the patient from which the sample used to identify cancer-related target sequences was obtained.

[0194] In some embodiments, suitable primary cells include peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs), and other blood cell subpopulations such as, but not limited to, T cells, natural killer cells, monocytes, natural killer T cells, monocyte precursor cells, hematopoietic stem cells, or non-pluripotent stem cells. In some embodiments, the cells can be any immune cell, including any T cell such as a tumor infiltrating cell (TIL), such as a CD3+ T cell, a CD4+ T cell, a CD8+ T cell, or any other type of T cell. The T cells can also include memory T cells, memory stem T cells, or effector T cells. The T cells can also be selected from a bulk population, for example, from whole blood. The T cells can also be expanded from a bulk population. The T cells can also be biased toward a particular population and phenotype. For example, the T cells can be biased toward a phenotype comprising CD45RO(-), CCR7(+), CD45RA(+), CD62L(+), CD27(+), CD28(+), and / or IL-7Ra(+). Suitable cells can comprise one or more markers selected from the following list: CD45RO(-), CCR7(+), CD45RA(+), CD62L(+), CD27(+), CD28(+), and / or IL-7Ra(+). Suitable cells also include stem cells, for example, embryonic stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, hematopoietic stem cells, neuronal stem cells, and mesenchymal stem cells. Suitable cells can comprise any number of primary cells, for example, human cells, non-human cells, and / or mouse cells. Suitable cells can be progenitor cells. Suitable cells can be derived from a subject (e.g., a patient) to be treated.

[0195] The amount of therapeutically effective cells needed in a patient can vary depending on the viability of the cells and the efficiency of the genetic modification of the cells (e.g., the efficiency of integration of the transgene into one or more cells, or the level of expression of a protein encoded by the transgene). In some embodiments, the product of the viability of the cells after genetic modification (e.g., fold increase) and the efficiency of integration of the transgene can correspond to the therapeutic amount of cells that can be used to administer to a subject. In some embodiments, the increase in the viability of the cells after genetic modification can correspond to a reduction in the amount of cells needed to be administered to a patient for a treatment to be effective. In some embodiments, the increase in the efficiency of integration of the transgene into one or more cells can correspond to a reduction in the amount of cells needed to be administered to a patient for a treatment to be effective. In some embodiments, determining the amount of therapeutically effective cells needed can comprise determining a function related to the change in cells over time. In some embodiments, determining the amount of therapeutically effective cells needed can comprise determining a function corresponding to the change in the efficiency of integration of the transgene into one or more cells as a function of a variable related to time (e.g., time in cell culture, time of electroporation, time of cell stimulation). In some embodiments, a therapeutically effective cell can be a cell population comprising expression of about 30% to about 100% of receptors that bind an antigen on the surface of the cell. In some embodiments, a therapeutically effective cell can express about 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75% 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, 99.5%, 99.9%, or more than about 99.9% of the receptors that bind an antigen on the surface of the cell, as measured by flow cytometry.

[0198] The present application also includes viruses comprising the above vectors. Viruses of the present application include packaged, infective viruses, as well as viruses to be packaged comprising the necessary components for packaging into infective viruses. Other viruses known in the art that can be used to transduce foreign genes into immunoresponsive cells and their corresponding plasmid vectors can also be used in the present application.

In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition further comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

[0209] In another aspect, provided herein is a pharmaceutical composition comprising a host cell described herein and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

[0210] The term "pharmaceutically acceptable" means that the molecule as such and the composition are suitable for use in animals, or humans, without resulting in adverse, allergic, or other untoward reactions.

[0211] In some embodiments, the composition comprises another therapeutic agent. In some embodiments, the other therapeutic agent is a chemotherapeutic agent, such as those described in US20140271820 and / or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or analogs thereof.

[0212] Specific examples of some substances which can serve as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or components thereof are sugars, such as lactose, glucose and sucrose; starches, such as corn starch and potato starch; cellulose and its derivatives, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose and methyl cellulose; powdered tragacanth; malt; gelatin; talc; solid lubricants, such as stearic acid and magnesium stearate; calcium sulfate; vegetable oils, such as peanut oil, cottonseed oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil and oil of theobroma; polyols such as propylene glycol, glycerin, sorbitol, mannitol, and polyethylene glycol; alginic acid; emulsifiers, such as the Tween®; wetting agents, such sodium lauryl sulfate; coloring agents; flavoring agents; tableting agents, stabilizers; antioxidants; preservatives; pyrogen-free water; isotonic saline; phosphate buffer solutions and the like.

[0213] The pharmaceutical compositions described herein can comprise one or more pharmaceutically acceptable salts. "Pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a salt that retains the desired biological activity of the parent compound and does not impart any undesired toxicological effects (see, e.g., Berge, S.M. et al., 1977, J. Pharm. Sci. 66: 1-19). Examples of such salts include acid addition salts and base addition salts.

[0214] Acid addition salts include salts derived from inorganic acids, such as hydrochloric, nitric, phosphoric, sulfuric, hydrobromic, hydroiodic, phosphorous, and the like, as well as salts derived from nontoxic organic acids, such as aliphatic mono- and dicarboxylic acids, phenyl-substituted alkanoic acids, hydroxy alkanoic acids, aromatic acids, aliphatic and

Examples of antioxidants include, but are not limited to, water-soluble antioxidants such as ascorbic acid, cysteine hydrochloride, sodium bisulfate, sodium metabisulfite, sodium sulfite, and the like; oil-soluble antioxidants such as ascorbyl palmitate, butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), lecithin, propyl gallate, alpha-tocopherol, and the like; and metal chelating agents such as citric acid, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), sorbitol, tartaric acid, phosphoric acid, and the like.

[0216] The compositions of the present application can be formulated into various dosage forms as desired and can be administered to patients in a dose determined by a physician to be beneficial to the patient, taking into account the patient's species, age, body weight, and general medical condition, mode of administration, and the like. The mode of administration can be, for example, parenteral (e.g., injection) or other therapeutic modalities.

[0217] "Parenteral" administration of an immunogenic composition includes, for example, subcutaneous (s.c.), intravenous (i.v.), intramuscular (i.m.), or intrasternal injection or infusion techniques.

[0218] A preparation comprising an immunoresponsive cell population administered to an individual comprises a plurality of immunoresponsive cells effective to treat and / or prevent a particular indication or disease. Thus, a therapeutically effective population of immunoresponsive cells can be administered to an individual. Typically, a preparation comprising about 1 x 10 4 to about 1 x 10 10 immunoresponsive cells will be administered. In most cases, the preparation will comprise about 1 x 10 5 to about 1 x 10 9 immunoresponsive cells, about 5 x 10 5 to about 5 x 108 about 1 x 105 6 about 1 x 105 7 about 1 x 105 However, the number of CAR-immunoreactive cells administered to an individual will vary within a wide range depending on the location, origin, identity, extent and severity of the cancer, the age and physical condition of the individual to be treated, and the like. The physician will ultimately determine the appropriate dosage to be used.

[0219] In some embodiments, the chimeric antigen receptor is used to stimulate an immune cell-mediated immune response. For example, a T cell-mediated immune response is an immune response involving T cell activation. Activated antigen-specific cytotoxic T cells are capable of inducing apoptosis in target cells displaying an exogenous antigen epitope on the surface, such as cancer cells displaying a tumor antigen. In other embodiments, the chimeric antigen receptor is used to provide an anti-tumor immunity in a mammal. As a result of the T cell-mediated immune response, the subject will develop an anti-tumor immunity.

[0220] In certain instances, a method of treating a subject having a cancer can involve administering to a subject in need of treatment one or more of the immunoresponsive cells described herein. The immunoresponsive cells can bind to a tumor target molecule and induce cancer cell death. As described previously, the present application also provides a method of treating a pathogen infection in an individual, comprising administering to the individual a therapeutically effective amount of the immunoresponsive cells of the present application.

[0221] The frequency of administration of the immunoresponsive cells of the present application will depend on factors including the disease being treated, the elements of the particular immunoresponsive cell, and the mode of administration. For example, the administration can be 4 times daily, 3 times daily, 2 times daily, or once daily, every other day, every third day, every fourth day, every fifth day, every sixth day, once a week, every eighth day, every ninth day, every tenth day, once a week, or twice a month. As described herein, because the immunoresponsive cells of the present application have improved viability, they can be administered not only at a lower therapeutically effective amount than similar immunoresponsive cells that do not express an exogenous Type I interferon, but also at a lower frequency to achieve at least similar, and preferably more significant, therapeutic effects.

[0222] In some embodiments, the compositions can be isotonic, i.e., they can have the same osmotic pressure as blood and tears. Desired isotonicity of the compositions of the present application can be achieved using sodium chloride or other pharmaceutically acceptable agents such as dextrose, boric acid, sodium tartrate, propylene glycol, or other inorganic or organic solutes. If desired, the viscosity of the compositions can be maintained at a selected level using pharmaceutically acceptable thickeners. Suitable thickeners include, for example, methylcellulose, xanthan gum, carboxymethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, carbomer, and the like. The preferred concentration of the thickener will depend on the agent selected. Obviously, the selection of suitable carriers and other additives will depend on the exact route of administration and the nature of the particular dosage form, e.g., liquid dosage forms.

[0223] The present application also provides kits comprising an antibody, chimeric antigen receptor, nucleic acid, or immunoresponsive cell described herein. In some embodiments, the kit can include a therapeutic or prophylactic composition comprising an effective amount of an antibody, chimeric antigen receptor, nucleic acid, or immunoresponsive cell described herein in one or more unit dosage forms.

The instructions can be printed directly on the container, or as a label applied to the container, or as a separate sheet, pamphlet, card, or folder supplied in or with the container. In some embodiments, the instructions provide a method of administering the immunoresponsive cells described herein for treating or preventing a tumor. In certain cases, the instructions provide a method of administering the immunoresponsive cells of the application prior to, after, or concurrently with a chemotherapeutic agent.

[0226] In another aspect, also provided herein is a method of inducing cell death comprising IL-13RA2, the method comprising contacting the cell with an antibody described herein, a chimeric antigen receptor described herein, a composition described herein, or a host cell described herein. In some embodiments, the contacting is in vitro. In some embodiments, the contacting is in vivo.

[0227] In some embodiments, the cell is a tumor cell. In some embodiments, the cell is a brain tumor, more specifically, a astrocytoma, meningioma, glioma.

[0228] In another aspect, provided herein is a method of treating a tumor in an individual in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the individual an effective amount of an antibody, chimeric antigen receptor, composition, vector, or host cell described herein.

[0229] In some embodiments, the subject can be administered immune-responsive cells, where the immune-responsive cells that can be administered can be about 1 to about 35 days old. For example, the cells administered can be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, or up to about 40 days old. The age of the CAR immune-responsive cells can be calculated from the time of stimulation. The age of the immune-responsive cells can be calculated from the time of blood collection. The age of the immune-responsive cells can be calculated from the time of transduction. In some embodiments, the immune-responsive cells that can be administered to the subject are about 10 to about 14 or about 20 days old. In some embodiments, the "age" of the immune-responsive cells can be determined by telomere length. For example, "young" immune-responsive cells can have a longer telomere length than "exhausted" or "old" immune-responsive cells. Without being bound by a particular theory, it is believed that immune-responsive cells lose an estimated telomere length of about 0.8 kb per week in culture, and a young immune-responsive cell culture can have a telomere that is about 1.4 kb longer than an immune-responsive cell that is about 44 days old. Without being bound by a particular theory, it is believed that longer telomere length can be associated with positive objective clinical responses in patients and persistence of cells in vivo.

[0230] The cells (e.g., engineered cells or engineered primary T cells) can be functional before, after, and / or during transplantation. For example, the transplanted cells can be functional for at least about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 6, 27, 28, 29, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, or 100 days after transplantation. The transplanted cells can be functional for at least about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12 months after transplantation. The transplanted cells can be functional for at least about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30 years after transplantation. In some embodiments, the transplanted cells can be functional for the lifetime of the recipient.

[0231] In addition, the transplanted cells can function at 100% of their normal expected function. The transplanted cells can also function at about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, or up to about 100% of their normal expected function.

[0232] The transplanted cells can also function at more than 100% of their normal expected function. For example, the transplanted cells can function at about 110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170, 180, 190, 200, 250, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000, or up to about 5000% of their normal expected function.

[0233] The transplant can be by any type of transplant. The local can include, but is not limited to, subcapsular space of the liver, subcapsular space of the spleen, subcapsular space of the kidney, omentum, submucosa of the stomach or intestine, segment of small intestine blood vessels, venous capsule, testis, brain, spleen, or cornea. For example, the transplant can be a subcapsular transplant. The transplant can also be an intramuscular transplant. The transplant can be a portal vein transplant.

[0234] The transplant rejection can be improved following treatment with the immunoresponsive cells of the application compared to when one or more wild-type cells are transplanted into a recipient. For example, the transplant rejection can be hyperacute rejection. The transplant rejection can also be acute rejection. Other types of rejection can include chronic rejection. The transplant rejection can also be a cell-mediated rejection or a T cell-mediated rejection. The transplant rejection can also be a natural killer cell-mediated rejection.

[0235] Improving the transplant can mean reducing, mitigating, or lessening the hyperacute rejection, which can include reducing, mitigating, or lessening an adverse effect or symptom. The transplant can refer to adoptive transplantation of a cell product.

[0236] Another indication of successful engraftment can be the number of days the recipient does not require immunosuppressive therapy. For example, after providing the immunoresponsive cells of the application, the recipient can not require immunosuppressive therapy for at least about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, or more days. This can indicate that the engraftment was successful. This can also indicate that the transplanted cells, tissues, and / or organs are not being rejected.

[0267] The phage display library used in this application is a full human natural scFv phage library constructed by our company, with a library capacity of 1E+11. The scFv fragment specific to IL-13RA2 was obtained by using screening method known to those skilled in the art. Briefly, coat 10ug / ml of antigen IL-13RA2_huFc and IL-13RA1_huFc in the immunotube respectively. In order to screen the antibody specific to IL-13RA2, add the phage library to the immunotube coated with IL-13RA1_huFc and bind for 1 hour. Take the supernatant and add to the immunotube coated with IL-13RA2_huFc and bind for 1.5 hours, then wash away the non-specific phage, elute the bound phage and infect the logarithmic phase E. coli TG1. Enlarge the culture of the eluted phage and use PEG / NaCl precipitation to purify the enlarged phage library for the next round of screening. Perform 3-4 cycles of panning to enrich the scFv phage clones specific to IL-13RA2. Determine the positive clones by standard ELISA method against IL-13RA2_huFc. Use IL-13RA1_huFc as irrelevant antigen in ELISA to verify the specificity of the antibody. A total of 3420 clones were screened, of which 44 clones specifically bound to IL-13RA2_huFc and did not bind to IL-13RA1_huFc in ELISA experiment. After sequencing, 5 single sequences were obtained.

[0271] Example 4. Construction of anti-IL-13RA2 scFv_Fc fusion antibodies and their transient expression, purification and activity identification in eukaryotic cells

[0272] The primers were designed for the VH and VL fragments of 31C2 and 32H4, respectively, to introduce a linker composed of 15 flexible amino acids (GGGGSGGGGSGGGGS) to form scFv; introduce appropriate enzyme cutting sites and protection bases upstream of VH and downstream of VL. The PCR products were analyzed by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis and purified for recovery. After enzyme cutting, the appropriate eukaryotic expression vector was connected. 293fectin TM Transfection reagent (Invitrogen, 12347-019) or polyethyleneimine (PEI) (Sigma-Aldrich, 408727) was used to transiently transfect 293F cells in logarithmic growth phase. After 5-7 days of transfection, the culture supernatant was collected and affinity purified by Protein A.

[0273] The binding of the antibodies to U251 cells endogenously expressing IL-13RA2 was tested by flow cytometry, with 293T cells as negative cell controls. The specific method for FACs detection is as follows: the cells were harvested, washed once with growth medium, resuspended in PBS, and the cell concentration was adjusted to 4E+5 cells / ml. The diluted scFv_Fc fusion antibody was incubated with the cells on ice for 30 minutes, and the concentration of the antibody was 111 nM. Then it was incubated with a FITC-labeled anti-human IgG secondary antibody. After two washing steps, Guava easyCyte™ HT System instrument was used for detection. Figure 4 The binding of antibodies 31C2, 32H4 scFv_Fc fusion forms to U251 and 293T cells is shown. Both antibodies specifically bind to U251 cells endogenously expressing IL-13RA2, and do not bind to negative cells 293T.

[0274] Example 5. Determination of the affinity of the antibodies using surface plasmon resonance technology (SPR)

[0275] The affinity of different antibodies to IL-13RA2 was determined using biacoreT200. The specific method is as follows:

The running buffer was HBS-N, and the temperature was 25 degrees. The experimental data was analyzed by BIAevaluation3.2, and the kinetic curve was fitted using a 1:1 langmuir model. The KD of 31C2 (scFv_Fc) was 1.79 nM, and the KD of 32H4 (scFv_Fc) was 3.76 nM (seeFigure 5 ).

[0279] Example 7. Affinity maturation of antibodies

[0280] Affinity maturation was performed using phage display technology.

[0281] Two phage libraries were constructed using 31C2 and 32H4 as parental antibodies, one randomizing CDR1 and CDR2 of light chain, the other randomizing CDR2 and CDR2 of heavy chain. Then panned against antigen, high affinity antibodies, i.e. variants of 31C2 and 32H4, were selected by SPR technology, etc. Primer information was shown in Table 2. Figure 7

[0282] ​​Firstly, a template plasmid was constructed based on antibody 31C2 (scFv) (amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO: 25, nucleic acid sequence SEQ ID NO: 26). For the phage library with CDR1 and CDR2 of light chain randomized, fragment 1 was amplified by PCR using primers LMF and IL1R; fragment 2 was amplified by PCR using primers IL2F and FdR; then the full length of scFv containing randomized sequences was obtained by bridge PCR connecting fragment 1 and fragment 2, and then the full length fragment was digested with Ncol and Notl, and ligated into the same digested template plasmid by T4 ligase, and then electrotransformed into TG1 competent cells, with a library capacity of 1.68E+9. For the phage library with CDR1 and CDR2 of heavy chain randomized, fragment 3 was amplified by PCR using primers LMF and BH1R; fragment 4 was amplified by PCR using primers BH2F and FdR; then the full length of scFv containing randomized sequences was obtained by bridge PCR connecting fragment 3 and fragment 4, and then the full length fragment was digested with Ncol and Notl, and ligated into the same digested template plasmid by T4 ligase, and then electrotransformed into TG1 competent cells, with a library capacity of 1.75E+9.

[0283] The construction of antibody 32H4 affinity maturation library was similar to 31C2, a template plasmid was constructed based on antibody 32H4 (scFv) (amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO: 27, nucleic acid sequence SEQ ID NO: 28). The CDR1 and CDR2 of light chain were randomized using the same primers as 31C2, and the obtained phage library had a library capacity of 2.1E+9. Similarly, the CDR1 and CDR2 of heavy chain were randomized using the same primers as 31C2, and the obtained phage library had a library capacity of 1.5E+9.

[0284] Example 8. Screening of phage library

[0285] The method in Example 2 of the present patent was referred to. The starting concentration of antigen IL13RA2_huFc was 50 nM, and 2-fold gradient dilution was performed for the next round of screening. The panning was performed for 2-3 cycles to enrich the scFv phage clones specifically binding to IL13RA2_huFc. The positive clones were determined by standard ELISA method against IL13RA2_huFc. The specificity of the antibodies was verified by ELISA using human IL13RA1_huFc fragment as irrelevant antigen. A total of 111 ELISA positive clones were picked, and after re-induction, the dissociation constant Kd of the induced supernatant was determined by biacore. The dissociation constant Kd of 10 clones was more than 10 times lower than that of the parent clone, as shown in Table 1. Figure 8

[0298] The six antibodies 5D7, 2C7, 5G3, 2D4, 2D3, 1B11 with higher affinity were chosen to construct the scFv_Fc fusion format.

[0299] The PCR products were analyzed by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis and purified. The PCR products were digested and ligated into the eukaryotic expression vector V152 containing human Fc segment (purchased from Shanghai Ruikeng Biotechnology Co., Ltd.). The ligated products were transfected into 293F cells by 293Fectin and expressed. The culture supernatant was collected after 5-7 days of transfection and affinity purified by Protein A. The aggregation of the antibodies was analyzed by SEC. The results are shown in Figure 11.

[0300] The affinity was determined by biacore T200 according to the method of Example 5, and the results are shown in Figure 12. The affinity of the antibodies after affinity maturation was improved by 3-10 times compared with the parent antibodies. The antibody binding dissociation constant is shown in Figure 13. Figures 11B-11G Figure 11F

[0301] Example 11. Determination of the EC50 of the scFv_Fc format of antibodies binding to U251 cells

[0302] According to the method of Example 6, the cells were harvested, washed once with growth medium, resuspended in PBS, and the cell concentration was adjusted to 4E+5 cells / ml. The gradient-diluted scFv_Fc fusion antibodies were incubated with the cells on ice for 30 minutes, and the starting concentration of the antibodies was 2000 nM, 5-fold dilution, 11 gradients. Then, the FITC-labeled anti-human IgG secondary antibody was incubated. After two washing steps, the Guava easyCyte™ HT System instrument was used for detection. The results are shown in Figure 14. Figure 12 ​​The scFv_Fc forms of antibodies 5D7, 2C7, 5G3, 2D4, 2D3, 1B11 showed binding EC50 to U251 cells of 0.56 nM, 0.57 nM, 0.53 nM, 0.37 nM, 0.33 nM, 0.47 nM, respectively. There was also a 2-8 fold improvement compared to the parental antibodies.
