Abstract
Description
[0001] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 476,054, filed on March 24, 2017. Technical Field
[0002] The present disclosure is in the field of type II activin receptor (ActRII) antagonists, such as molecules that can antagonize the binding of activin, growth differentiation factor (GDF), bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) and myostatin to the human Actll receptor, such as antagonist antibodies to ActRIIA and / or ActRIIB, such as bimagrumab. Specifically, the present disclosure relates to the prevention and / or treatment of heart failure, including heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), and to treating structural and / or functional cardiac abnormalities associated with the condition, such as valvular heart disease, coronary artery disease, hypertension, diabetes, aging, arrhythmias, peripartum cardiomyopathy, stress cardiomyopathy, toxic or infectious agents, and hereditary or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, by administering a therapeutically effective amount of an ActRII receptor antagonist to a subject. Notably, these conditions include clinical syndromes that often coexist but can occur alone and are sometimes referred to as systolic and / or diastolic heart failure, left-sided and / or right-sided heart failure, and congestive heart failure. Background Art
[0003] Activin receptor type IIB (ActRIIB) is a signaling receptor for various members of the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) superfamily. Members of this family include activin A, nodal, BMP2, BMP6, BMP7, BMP9, GDF5, GDF8 (myostatin), and GDF11, all of which are involved in the negative regulation of muscle (Akpan et al., 2009).
[0004] Myostatin (GDF8) acts via type II activin receptors (primarily via ActRIIB), and its proposed signaling is via the SMAD 2 / 3 pathway, which is involved in the inhibition of protein synthesis, as well as myocyte differentiation and proliferation. Myostatin inhibition or genetic ablation increases muscle mass and strength (Lee et al. 2005, Lee and McPherron 2001, Whittemore et al. 2003).
[0005] Bimagrumab, also known as BYM338, is a monoclonal antibody developed to competitively bind to the type IIB activin receptor (ActRII) with an affinity greater than that of the natural ligands of the type IIB activin receptor, myostatin or activin. Bimagrumab is disclosed in WO2010 / 125003, which is incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth. Bimagrumab is a fully human antibody (modified IgG1, 234-235-Ala-Ala, λ2) that binds to the ligand binding domains of ActRIIA and ActRIIB, thereby preventing the binding and subsequent signaling of ligands of ActRIIA and ActRIIB, including myostatin and activin, which act as natural inhibitors of skeletal muscle growth. Bimagrumab cross-reacts with human and mouse ActRIIB and is effective in human, macaque, mouse and rat skeletal muscle cells. ActRIIB is widely distributed in skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, and various organs including the heart (Rebbapragada et al., 2003).
[0006] Heart failure is a clinical syndrome in which impaired cardiac function results in insufficient systemic perfusion to meet the body's metabolic demands. Heart failure is divided into two major categories: (1) heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) (also known as "systolic heart failure") and (2) heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) (also known as "diastolic heart failure"). In HFrEF, reduced myocardial contractility is the primary mechanism that impairs cardiac output and leads to insufficient systemic perfusion. In HFpEF, resting myocardial contractility is generally preserved. However, a variety of other defects in cardiac function, including cardiac reserve and diastolic function, impair the functional performance of the heart, resulting in a similar phenotype to clinical heart failure. Various conditions can damage or weaken the heart and lead to heart failure, including, for example, valvular heart disease, coronary artery disease, hypertension, diabetes, aging, arrhythmias, peripartum cardiomyopathy, stress cardiomyopathy, toxic or infectious agents, and genetic and / or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy.
[0007] Heart failure caused by causes such as diabetes, aging, hypertension, ischemic heart disease, coronary heart disease, valvular heart disease, and hereditary and idiopathic cardiomyopathies is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. For this increasingly common disease process, available drug therapies are limited. The standard of care for heart failure includes a variety of drug therapies targeting the various mechanisms involved in the complex pathophysiology of the disease. Unfortunately, even with guideline-directed therapy, the prognosis for these patients remains poor, with a 5-year mortality rate approaching 50%. In advanced systolic heart failure, patients may not tolerate commonly used oral drug therapies due to hemodynamic, nephrogenic, and arrhythmogenic side effects, or may not be able to achieve sufficient relief from such therapies. For these patients, advanced therapies such as intravenous inotropes, mechanical support devices, and heart transplantation are very limited, expensive, and have significant risks.
[0008] Prior to the present disclosure, targeted inhibition of the type II activin receptor (ActRIIA / B) had not been investigated as a prophylactic or therapeutic approach for heart failure or the aforementioned conditions that can lead to heart failure. As disclosed herein, there is now evidence that systemic administration of an ActRIIA / B receptor antagonist, such as CDD866, which is a murinized version of BYM338 (in which the human Fc region of the antibody has been replaced by a mouse Fc), has significant beneficial effects on cardiac function in mice subjected to transverse aortic constriction (TAC). TAC is a commonly used experimental model of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure caused by pressure overload. First validated by Rockman et al., 1991, the murine TAC model has been widely used since 1991 as a valuable tool for modeling human cardiovascular disease and understanding the fundamental signaling processes involved in the development of cardiac hypertrophic responses and heart failure (deAlmeida et al., 2010). As disclosed herein, CDD866 not only prevents TAC-mediated cardiac dysfunction but is also able to restore cardiac function within 1-2 weeks of drug administration after heart failure has established. It also enhances skeletal muscle growth (which tends to atrophy in advanced forms of heart failure) and induces minimal cardiac effects in control mice that have not been subjected to pathological stress / injury from TAC.
[0009] Disclosed herein are ActRII receptor antagonists for use in treating and / or preventing heart failure, including heart failure caused by or associated with conditions such as valvular heart disease, ischemic heart disease, coronary artery disease, hypertension, diabetes, aging, arrhythmias, peripartum cardiomyopathy, stress cardiomyopathy, toxic or infectious agents, and hereditary and / or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. Also disclosed are ActRII receptor antagonists for use in treating structural and / or functional cardiac abnormalities associated with the above-mentioned conditions. Also provided are methods of using such ActRII antagonists to treat and / or prevent heart failure, as well as treating structural and / or functional cardiac abnormalities associated with the above-mentioned conditions. Summary of the Invention
[0010] Disclosed herein are ActRII receptor antagonists for the treatment and / or prevention of heart failure. Heart failure may be caused by or associated with a variety of conditions, such as valvular disease (such as aortic stenosis), coronary artery disease, hypertension, diabetes, aging, arrhythmias, peripartum cardiomyopathy, stress cardiomyopathy, toxic or infectious agents, and hereditary or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. Included herein are heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
[0011] Also disclosed herein are ActRII receptor antagonists for the treatment of structural and / or functional cardiac abnormalities associated with conditions such as valvular heart disease, coronary artery disease, hypertension, diabetes, aging, arrhythmias, peripartum cardiomyopathy, stress cardiomyopathy, toxic or infectious agents, and hereditary or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. In some cases, peripartum cardiomyopathy occurs in late pregnancy or during the 6 months postpartum. Stress cardiomyopathy typically occurs in elderly women in the postmenopausal period. An example of valvular heart disease is aortic stenosis, which can be associated with frailty and / or sarcopenia. Stress cardiomyopathy can occur following psychological, pathological, or physical stress.
[0012] Disclosed herein are methods for treating and / or preventing heart failure. The methods include administering a therapeutically effective amount of an ActRII receptor antagonist, such as bimagrumab, to a subject having heart failure or at risk of developing heart failure. Included herein are heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Heart failure can be diagnosed in a patient using well-known methods, including, for example, measuring brain natriuretic peptide, followed by cardiac ultrasound if the brain natriuretic peptide is positive, and performing imaging such as echocardiography.
[0013] Patients are at risk for developing heart failure when they have conditions such as valvular heart disease, coronary artery disease (including previous myocardial infarction), hypertension, diabetes, aging, arrhythmias, peripartum cardiomyopathy, stress cardiomyopathy, and hereditary or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy.
[0014] Also disclosed herein are methods for treating structural and / or functional cardiac abnormalities associated with conditions such as valvular heart disease, coronary artery disease, hypertension, diabetes, aging, arrhythmias, peripartum cardiomyopathy, stress cardiomyopathy, toxic or infectious agents, and hereditary or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, comprising administering an effective amount of an ActRII receptor antagonist to a subject having such structural and / or functional cardiac abnormalities associated with such conditions.
[0015] Examples of ActRII receptor antagonists for use in the methods described herein are ActRII receptor binding molecules that block access of ActRII interacting ligands such as myostatin, GDF11, and activin A to ActRII.

[0105] Figure 1A graphically shows CDD866 plasma levels measured in wild-type C57BL / 6 mice treated with weekly injections of CDD866 or isotype control Ab for 8 weeks.
[0106] Figure 1B graphically shows the heart weight / tibial muscle length ratio (HW / TL) of control mice with the same type Ab (n=3) (grey bars) and experimental mice with CDD866 Ab (n=3) *p<0.05 (black bars), indicating that CDD866 does not significantly increase heart mass in adult wild-type C57BL / 6 mice.
[0107] Figure 1C is a bar graph showing % fibrosis in mice in the control group (isotype Ab, grey bars) and experimental group (CDD866 Ab [n=3], *p<0.05, black bars)). CDD866 reduced myocardial fibrosis, but the % fibrosis at baseline was significantly lower in adult wild-type C57BL / 6 mice.
[0108] Figure ID shows a representative micrograph of PAS-stained myocardium, highlighting the size of cardiomyocytes.
[0109] Figure 1E graphically illustrates the finding that CDD866 does not significantly increase cardiomyocyte size in wild-type animals. Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation. Gray = control group, isotype Ab (n = 3). Black = experimental group, CDD866 Ab (n = 3), *p < 0.05
[0110] Figure 2A graphically shows that contractile function, as measured by % fractional shortening (FS), was expectedly reduced with TAC (horizontal bars), but was preserved in CDD866-treated animals subjected to TAC (diagonal bars). SHAM + isotype Ab (n=7), black bars; SHAM + CDD866 Ab (n=7), gray bars; TAC + isotype Ab (n=10), horizontal bars; TAC + CDD866 Ab (n=10), diagonal bars. #P<0.01.
[0111] Figure 2B shows representative echocardiographic images 11 weeks after SHAM or TAC surgery, demonstrating preserved contractile function in TAC animals treated with CDD866.
[0112] Figure 2C graphically shows the lung weight / tibialis muscle length ratio (LW / TL) of mice in different treatment groups. SHAM + isotype Ab (n=7), black bars; SHAM + CDD866 Ab (n=7), gray bars; TAC + isotype Ab (n=10), horizontal bars; TAC + CDD866 Ab (n=10), diagonal bars. *p<0.01. There was a trend toward decreased lung weight in CDD866-treated animals, indicating less lung congestion (a surrogate for heart failure in the mouse model).
[0113] Figure 2D graphically shows a significant reduction in the primary endpoint (survival or %FS < 20%) with CDD866 treatment.
[0114] FIG3A graphically shows plasma CDD866 levels for various treatment groups: TAC+isotype; TAC+CDD866; Sham+isotype; and Sham+CDD866.
[0115] Figure 3B is a bar graph showing that cardiac follistatin-like 3 (FSTL3) expression increases with TAC, indicating increased cardiac ActRII-A / B signaling in this cardiac injury model. CDD866 treatment reduces cardiac FSTL3 expression, indicating that it effectively blocks TAC-induced ActRII-A / B signaling in the heart. Black = SHAM + isotype Ab (n = 7). Gray = SHAM + CDD866 Ab (n = 7). Horizontal bars = TAC + isotype Ab (n = 10). Diagonal bars = TAC + CDD866 Ab (n = 10). *p < 0.05. #p < 0.01.
[0116] Figure 3C graphically shows that the relative mRNA expression of pathological cardiac hypertrophy genes decreased with CDD866 treatment. ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide); BNP (brain natriuretic peptide); aMHC (alpha myosin heavy chain); bMHC (beta myosin heavy chain). Black = SHAM + isotype Ab (n = 7). Gray = SHAM + CDD866 Ab (n = 7). Horizontal bars = TAC + isotype Ab (n = 10). Diagonal bars = TAC + CDD866 Ab (n = 10). *p < 0.05. #p < 0.01.
[0117] FIG3D is a bar graph illustrating that treatment with CDD866 reduces relative mRNA expression of pathological cardiac fibrosis genes in TAC-induced heart failure. COL1 (collagen type 1); CTGF (connective tissue growth factor). Black = SHAM + isotype Ab (n=7). Gray = SHAM + CDD866 Ab (n=7). Horizontal bars = TAC + isotype Ab (n=10). Diagonal bars = TAC + CDD866 Ab (n=10). *p<0.05. #p<0.01.
[0118] FIG4A graphically shows CDD866 plasma levels measured in mice that developed contractile function after TAC followed by weekly treatment with CDD866 injections for 8 weeks.
[0119] Figure 4B is a bar graph showing the relative mRNA expression levels of FSTL3 (follistatin-like 3), activin A, MSTN (myostatin), ACVR2A (activin A receptor type 2A), and ACVR2B (activin A receptor type 2B). The graph shows that treatment with CDD866 can reduce cardiac FSTL3 expression, indicating that CDD866 can effectively block TAC-induced ActRII-A / B signaling in the heart.
[0120] Figure 4C is a graph of % fractional shortening plotted against time (in weeks), showing that CDD866 reversed systolic dysfunction in TAC-induced heart failure in a progressively improving manner as early as 1 week after treatment.
[0121] Figure 4D graphically shows that CDD866 also reduced the lung weight to tibialis muscle length ratio, a surrogate marker for heart failure in a mouse model. Gray = TAC + isotype Ab. Black = TAC + CDD866 Ab. *p < 0.05. #p < 0.01. LW / TL (lung weight / tibialis muscle length ratio).
[0122] Figure 5A is a graph plotting wall thickness versus weeks after TAC, showing a gradual increase in wall thickness with CDD866 treatment. The arrow indicates the onset of CDD866.
[0123] Figure 5B shows serial echo images of ventricular sections during treatment, demonstrating differences in cardiac growth between isotype- and CDD866-treated animals. Cdd866-mediated cardiac growth prevents eccentric remodeling associated with progressive contractile dysfunction.
[0124] Figure 5C is a graph showing the heart weight / tibialis muscle length ratio (HW / TL) of mice treated with TAC+isotype Ab (grey bars) and TAC+CDD866 Ab (black bars), demonstrating that CDD866 increases heart mass in the TAC model. *p<0.05. #p<0.01.
[0125] Figure 5D shows micrographs of PAS-stained myocardium highlighting cardiomyocyte size in TAC+isotype Ab and TAC+CDD866Ab treated mice.
[0126] Figure 5E is a graph showing cross-sectional area of cardiomyocytes from mice treated with TAC+isotype Ab (grey) and TAC+CDD866Ab (black), demonstrating that CDD866 increases cardiomyocyte growth in TAC. *p<0.05. #p<0.01.
[0127] FIG6A is a graph showing that mRNA expression of genes associated with pathological hypertrophy decreased with CDD866 treatment. ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide); BNP (brain natriuretic peptide); αMHC (α-myosin heavy chain); βMHC (β-myosin heavy chain). TAC + isotype Ab (grey); TAC + CDD866 Ab (black) are shown. *p<0.05. #p<0.01.
[0128] Figure 6B plots fractional shortening, wall thickness, and body weight of mice over time (in weeks). Arrow = timing of single dose; dashed line = expected trajectory without CDD866 treatment. The figure shows that the effects of CDD866 on cardiac growth and body weight occur rapidly, are transient, and reversible. The effects of a single dose of CDD866 also occur within a 1-2 week timeframe and persist for at least 6 weeks.
[0129] FIG6C shows a photomicrograph of Masson's trichrome-stained myocardium (blue = fibrosis; red = muscle), demonstrating reduced cardiac fibrosis in TAC'd mice treated with CDD866.
[0130] Figure 6D is a bar graph showing % fibrosis using TAC + isotype Ab (grey) and TAC + CDD866 Ab (black), demonstrating a trend toward reduced myocardial fibrosis with CDD866 treatment. *p<0.05. #p<0.01.
[0131] Figure 7A is a Western blot of gastrocnemius muscle samples probed with p-SMAD3 and GAPDH antibodies. Samples were collected from T57BL / 6 mice with confirmed cardiac dysfunction after TAC and subsequently treated with CDD866 (TT-2 to TT-10) or isotype control Abs (TT-11 to TT-20) for 8 weeks. This figure generally demonstrates that CDD866 reduces ActRII-A / B signaling in skeletal muscle in a TAC-mediated mouse model of heart failure. MSTN stimulation in C2C12 cells was used as a positive control for the assay.
[0132] Figure 7B is a graph showing the % change in mouse weight from baseline measured relative to weeks post-treatment. Diamond data points (red) represent TAC + isotype Ab. Square data points (blue) represent TAC + CDD866 Ab. *p<0.05. #p<0.01. CDD866 resulted in a gradual increase in overall body weight, likely through increased muscle mass.
[0133] Figure 7C graphically shows the % change in muscle mass relative to control for each of the following skeletal muscle groups: EDL (extensor digitorum longus), gastrocnemius, and tibialis. Red indicates TAC + isotype Ab. Blue indicates TAC + CDD866 Ab. *p<0.05. #p<0.01. CDD866 increased the mass of all three skeletal muscle groups overall.
[0134] Figure 7D is a graph showing % fiber distribution relative to serial tissue sections, demonstrating that CDD866 increases skeletal muscle cell size. Red indicates TAC + isotype Ab treatment. Blue indicates TAC + CDD866 Ab treatment. *p<0.05. #p<0.01.
[0135] Figure 7E shows four graphs showing the % fiber distribution relative to serial tissue sections, demonstrating that CDD866 induces multiple fiber type switching in skeletal muscle. Red indicates TAC+isotype Ab treatment. Blue indicates TAC+CDD866 Ab treatment.
[0136] FIG8A is a graph showing changes in % fractional shortening (FS) over time in mice harboring a missense mutation (F764L) in the αMHC gene (a mouse model of dilated cardiomyopathy). Twelve weeks of CDD866 treatment resulted in a trend toward a modest increase in contractile function. Gray = isotype Ab. Black = CDD866 Ab. *p<0.05. #p<0.01.
[0137] Figure 8B is a bar graph showing the relative mRNA expression levels of various genes associated with the ActRII pathway in cardiac tissue from mice treated with CDD866 (black) or isotype Ab (grey). There was a trend toward decreased cardiac FSTL3 expression with CDD866, suggesting inhibition of ActRII receptor signaling in the heart. *p<0.05. #p<0.01.
[0138] FIG8C is a bar graph showing relative mRNA expression levels of genes associated with pathological hypertrophy in mice treated with isotype Ab or CDD866 Ab. *p<0.05. #p<0.01. Gray = isotype Ab. Black = CDD866 Ab. *p<0.05. #p<0.01. ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide); BNP (brain natriuretic peptide); αMHC (α-myosin heavy chain); βMHC (β-myosin heavy chain). There were no significant differences in the pathological hypertrophy gene expression profiles.
[0139] definition
[0140] In order to more readily understand the present disclosure, certain terms are first defined. Additional definitions are set forth throughout the detailed description.
[0141] The term "comprising" means "including", eg, a composition "comprising" X may consist solely of X or may include something additional, eg, X+Y.
[0142] The term "about" in connection with a value x means, for example, x ± 10%.
[0143] The following exemplifies possible preclinical treatment protocols to evaluate the potential effects of treatment with an ActRII binding molecule, more preferably an antagonist antibody to ActRII (eg, bimagrumab).
[0144] Treatment is exemplified using mice subjected to transverse aortic constriction (TAC), a common experimental model of pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. Technicians know how to establish suitable experimental or dosing protocols for other species, particularly humans. For studies in primates, anti-ActRII antibodies (e.g., bimagrumab) can be administered to male and female macaques once a week by intravenous injection for up to 3 months. 32 macaques (16 / sex) can be assigned to one of four treatment groups (3 to 5 animals / sex / group) and can be administered vehicle or ActRIIB antibody (e.g., BYM338) at 10, 30, or 100 mg / kg intravenously once a week for 13 weeks (a total of 14 doses; the dose should be selected based on the symptoms of the heart disease).
[0145] The terms "ActRIIA" and "ActRIIB" refer to activin receptors. Activins signal through a heterodimeric complex of receptor serine kinases, which include at least two type I (I and IB) and two type II (IIA and IIB, also known as ACVR2A and ACVR2B) receptors. These receptors are all transmembrane proteins consisting of a ligand-binding extracellular domain (which has a cysteine-rich region), a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic domain with predicted serine / threonine specificity. Type I receptors are essential for signal transduction, while type II receptors are required for ligand binding and expression / recruitment of type I receptors. Type I and type II receptors form a stable complex after ligand binding, resulting in phosphorylation of type I receptors by type II receptors. Activin receptor IIB (ActRIIB) is a receptor for myostatin. Activin receptor IIA (ActRIIA) is also a receptor for myostatin. The term ActRIIB or Act IIB receptor refers to human ActRIIB as defined in SEQ ID NO: 181 (AAC64515.1, GI: 3769443). Research grade polyclonal and monoclonal anti-ActRIIB antibodies are known in the art, such as those produced by R&D Of course, antibodies can be raised against ActRIIB from other species and used to treat pathological conditions in those species.
[0146] The term "immune response" refers to the action of, for example, lymphocytes, antigen-presenting cells, phagocytes, granulocytes, and soluble macromolecules (e.g., antibodies, cytokines, and complement) produced by these cells or the liver that results in the selective damage, destruction, or elimination from the body of invading pathogens, cells or tissues infected by pathogens, cancer cells, or, in the case of autoimmunity or pathological inflammation, normal human cells or tissues.
[0147] "Signaling activity" refers to a biochemical cause-and-effect relationship, typically initiated by protein-protein interactions (such as the binding of a growth factor to a receptor), resulting in the transmission of a signal from one part of a cell to another. Typically, the transmission involves specific phosphorylation of one or more tyrosine, serine, or threonine residues on one or more proteins in a series of reactions, leading to signal transduction. The penultimate process typically involves nuclear events, resulting in changes in gene expression.
[0148] The term "antibody" as used herein includes intact antibodies and any antigen-binding fragments (i.e., "antigen-binding portions") or single chains thereof. Naturally occurring "antibodies" are glycoproteins comprising at least two heavy (H) chains and two light (L) chains interconnected by disulfide bonds. Each heavy chain consists of a heavy chain variable region (abbreviated herein as V H) and a heavy chain constant region. The heavy chain constant region is composed of three domains: CH1, CH2, and CH3. Each light chain consists of a light chain variable region (abbreviated herein as V L ) and the light chain constant region. The light chain constant region consists of a domain C L Composition. H and V L The V domains can be further subdivided into regions of hypervariability, called complementarity determining regions (CDRs), and more conserved regions, called framework regions (FRs), interspersed with the CDRs. H and V L It is composed of three CDRs and four FRs, which are arranged in the following order from amino terminus to carboxyl terminus: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4. The variable regions of the heavy and light chains contain binding domains that interact with antigens. The constant region of an antibody can mediate the binding of the immunoglobulin to host tissues or factors, including various cells of the immune system (e.g., effector cells) and the first component (Clq) of the classical complement system.
[0149] As used herein, the term "antigen-binding portion" of an antibody (or simply "antigen portion") refers to the full length of an antibody, or one or more fragments of an antibody that retain the ability to specifically bind to an antigen (e.g., a portion of ActRIIB). It has been shown that the antigen-binding function of an antibody can be performed by fragments of a full-length antibody. Examples of binding fragments encompassed within the term "antigen-binding portion" of an antibody include: a Fab fragment, which is a fragment of a V-binding region of a Fab protein. L 、V H 、C L and CH1 domains; F(ab)2 fragment, which is a bivalent fragment comprising two Fab fragments, each of which binds to the same antigen and is linked by a disulfide bond in the hinge region; and Fd fragment, which consists of V H and CH1 domains; Fv fragment, the Fv fragment consists of the V L and V H Domain composition; dAb fragment (Ward et al., 1989 Nature 341:544-546), the dAb fragment consists of V H domain composition; and isolated complementarity determining regions (CDRs).
[0150] In addition, although the two domains V L and V Hare encoded by separate genes, but they can be joined using recombinant methods by a synthetic linker that enables them to be made into a single protein chain in which V L and V H The regions are paired to form monovalent molecules (called single-chain Fv (scFv); see, e.g., Bird et al., 1988 Science 242:423-426; and Huston et al., 1988 Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 85:5879-5883). Such single-chain antibodies are also intended to be encompassed within the term "antigen-binding region" of an antibody. These antibody fragments are obtained using conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art, and the fragments are screened for use in the same manner as intact antibodies.
[0151] As used herein, an "isolated antibody" refers to an antibody that is substantially free of other antibodies with different antigenic specificities (e.g., an isolated antibody that specifically binds ActRIIB is substantially free of antibodies that specifically bind an antigen other than ActRIIB). However, an isolated antibody that specifically binds ActRIIB may have cross-reactivity with other antigens, such as ActRIIB molecules from other species. Furthermore, an isolated antibody may be substantially free of other cellular material and / or chemicals.
[0152] The term "cross-blocking" refers to the ability of an antibody or other binding agent to interfere with the binding of other antibodies or binding agents to ActRIIB, particularly the ligand binding domain, in a standard competitive binding assay.
[0153] The term "monoclonal antibody" or "monoclonal antibody composition" as used herein refers to a preparation of antibody molecules of single molecular composition. A monoclonal antibody composition displays a single binding specificity and affinity for a particular epitope.
[0154] As used herein, the term "human (class) antibody " is intended to include such antibodies, and the antibody has a variable region, in which framework region and CDR region are all derived from sequences in human origin. In addition, if the antibody contains a constant region, the constant region is also derived from this type of human sequence, such as human germline sequence, or a mutant form of human germline sequence, or an antibody containing a consensus framework sequence derived from human framework sequence analysis, such as described in Knappik et al. (2000.J Mol Biol 296,57-86). Human antibodies of the present disclosure may include amino acid residues not encoded by human sequences (such as mutations introduced by random or site-specific mutagenesis in vitro or by somatic mutations in vivo). However, as used herein, the term "human (class) antibody " is not intended to include such antibodies, in which the CDR sequences derived from the germline of another mammalian species (such as a mouse) have been transplanted onto human framework sequences.
[0155] The term "human monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody displaying a single binding specificity having a variable region in which both the framework and CDR regions are derived from human sequences. In one embodiment, the human monoclonal antibody is produced by a hybridoma comprising a B cell obtained from a transgenic non-human animal, such as a transgenic mouse, having a genome comprising a human heavy chain transgene and a light chain transgene fused to an immortalized cell.
[0156] As used herein, the term "recombinant human (class) antibody" includes all human antibodies prepared, expressed, produced or isolated by recombinant methods, such as antibodies isolated from animals (e.g., mice) that are transgenic or transchromosomal for human immunoglobulin genes or hybridomas prepared therefrom, antibodies isolated from host cells transformed to express human antibodies (e.g., antibodies from transfectomas), antibodies isolated from recombinant, combinatorial human antibody libraries, and antibodies prepared, expressed, produced or isolated by any other method involving splicing all or part of the sequence of human immunoglobulin genes to other DNA sequences. Such recombinant human antibodies have variable regions in which the framework and CDR regions are derived from human germline immunoglobulin sequences. However, in certain embodiments, such recombinant human antibodies can be subjected to in vitro mutagenesis (or, when using animals that are transgenic for human Ig sequences, somatic mutagenesis in the receptor), whereby the V H Area and V L The amino acid sequence of the region is such a sequence that, although derived from human germline V H Sequence and V L Sequence and human germline V H Sequence and V L Sequence-related, but may not naturally occur in the human antibody germline repertoire.
[0157] As used herein, "isotype" refers to the antibody class provided by the heavy chain constant region genes (eg, IgM, IgE, IgG, such as IgGl or IgG2).
[0158] The phrases "an antibody that recognizes an antigen" and "an antibody specific for an antigen" are used interchangeably herein with the term "an antibody that specifically binds to an antigen."
[0159] As used herein, an antibody that "specifically binds to an ActRIIB polypeptide" means an antibody that binds to an ActRIIB polypeptide with a K of about 100 nM or less, about 10 nM or less, about 1 nM or less, or about 1 nM or less.

In addition, another method for increasing antigen binding affinity involves producing dimers, trimers, or multimers of any construct of the anti-ActRIIB antibodies described herein. Such multimers can be produced by covalent bonding between the individual modules, for example, by simulating natural C-to-N-terminal binding or by simulating antibody dimers held together by the constant region of the antibody. The bonds engineered into the Fc / Fc interface can be covalent or non-covalent. In addition, dimerization or multimerization of partners other than Fc can be used in ActRIIB hybrids to create such higher order structures.

[0168] As used herein, the term "selectivity" of an antibody refers to the ability of the antibody to bind to a particular target polypeptide but not to closely related polypeptides.
[0169] As used herein, the term "high affinity" of an antibody refers to the K of the antibody for the target antigen. D As used herein, the term "subject" includes any human or non-human animal.

[0171] As used herein, the term "optimized" refers to a nucleotide sequence that has been altered to encode an amino acid sequence using codons that are preferred in production cells or organisms, typically eukaryotic cells, such as cells of Pichia, Trichoderma, Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO), or human cells. The optimized nucleotide sequence is engineered to retain, completely or as much as possible, the amino acid sequence originally encoded by the starting nucleotide sequence, which is also referred to as the "parent" sequence. The optimized sequences herein have been engineered to have codons that are preferred in CHO mammalian cells, but optimized expression of these sequences in other eukaryotic cells is also contemplated herein. The amino acid sequence encoded by the optimized nucleotide sequence is also referred to as optimized.

[0288] 34. A single dosage form comprising 150 mg / ml of bimagrumab.
[0289] In another embodiment, a single dosage form, i.e., a vial, contains 100-200 mg / ml of bimagrumab, preferably 100, 105, 110, 115, 120, 125, 130, 135, 140, 145, 150, 155, 160, 165, 170, 175, 180, 185, 190, 195, 200 mg / ml of bimagrumab.
[0290] 35. An infusion bag comprising an appropriate amount of bimagrumab from one or more vials diluted with a solution.

[0293] Disclosed herein are ActRII receptor antagonists for use in the preparation of medicaments for treating and / or preventing heart failure and for treating structural and / or functional cardiac abnormalities associated with conditions such as valvular heart disease, hypertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes, aging, arrhythmias, peripartum cardiomyopathy, stress-induced cardiomyopathy, and other forms of inherited or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy.
[0294] In further embodiments, all aspects disclosed herein can be used in combination with any other aspects.
[0295] Various aspects of the present disclosure are described in more detail in the following subsections. Standard assays for evaluating the binding ability of antibodies to ActRII of various species are known in the art and include, for example, ELISA, Western blot, and RIA. The binding affinity of the antibodies can also be assessed by standard assays known in the art, such as by Biacore analysis or solution equilibrium titration. Surface plasmon resonance-based techniques (such as Biacore) can determine binding kinetics, which allows calculation of binding affinity.
[0296] Thus, an antibody that "inhibits" one or more of these ActRII functional properties (e.g., biochemical, immunochemical, cellular, physiological, or other biological activities, etc.) as determined according to methods known in the art and described herein should be understood to involve a statistically significant reduction in the specific activity relative to that observed in the absence of the antibody (e.g., or in the presence of a control antibody of irrelevant specificity). Antibodies that inhibit ActRII activity achieve such a statistically significant reduction of at least 10%, at least 50%, 80%, or 90% of the measured parameter, and in certain embodiments, the antibodies of the present disclosure can inhibit ActRIIB functional activity by greater than 95%, 98%, or 99%.
[0297] The ability or extent to which an antibody or other binding agent is able to interfere with the binding of another antibody or binding molecule to ActRII, and therefore whether it can be said to cross-block according to the present disclosure, can be determined using standard competitive binding assays. One suitable assay involves the use of Biacore technology (e.g., by using a BIAcore instrument (Biacore, Uppsala, Sweden)), which can use surface plasmon resonance technology to measure the extent of interaction. Another assay for measuring cross-blocking uses an ELISA-based method. Another assay uses FACS analysis, in which various antibodies are tested for competition for binding to ActRIIB-expressing cells.
[0298] According to the present disclosure, the cross-blocking antibodies or other binding agents according to the present disclosure bind to ActRII in the described BIAcore cross-blocking assay such that the recorded binding of the combination (cocktail) of the antibodies or binding agents is between 80% and 0.1% (e.g., 80% to 4%) of the maximal theoretical binding of the combination of the two antibodies or binding agents, specifically between 75% and 0.1% (e.g., 75% to 4%) of the maximal theoretical binding of the combination of the two antibodies or binding agents, more specifically between 70% and 0.1% (e.g., 70% to 4%) of the maximal theoretical binding of the combination of the two antibodies or binding agents, more specifically between 65% and 0.1% (e.g., 65% to 4%) of the maximal theoretical binding (as defined above) of the combination of the two antibodies or binding agents.
[0299] If the test antibody is able to cause a reduction in binding of the anti-ActRIIB antibody to ActRIIB by between 60% and 100%, specifically between 70% and 100%, more specifically between 80% and 100%, when compared to a positive control well (i.e., the same anti-ActRIIB antibody and ActRIIB, but without the "test" cross-blocking antibody), then the antibody is defined as cross-blocking the anti-ActRIIB antibodies of the present disclosure in an ELISA assay. Examples of cross-blocking antibodies cited herein are MOR08159 and MOR08213 (disclosed in WO2010 / 125003). Accordingly, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising antibodies that cross-block the binding of MOR08159 or MOR08213 to ActRIIB.
[0300] recombinant antibodies
[0301] Antibodies included in the compositions used in the present disclosure, e.g., ActRII antagonist antibodies such as bimagrumab, include isolated and structurally characterized human recombinant antibodies as described herein. H The amino acid sequences are shown in SEQ ID NO: 99 to SEQ ID NO: 112. The V LThe amino acid sequences are shown in SEQ ID NO: 85 to SEQ ID NO: 98, respectively. Examples of preferred full-length heavy chain amino acid sequences of the antibodies included in the compositions of the present invention are shown in SEQ ID NO: 146 to SEQ ID NO: 150 and SEQ ID NO: 156 to SEQ ID NO: 160. Examples of preferred full-length light chain amino acid sequences of the antibodies included in the compositions of the present invention are shown in SEQ ID NO: 141 to SEQ ID NO: 145 and SEQ ID NO: 151 to SEQ ID NO: 155, respectively. Other antibodies included in the compositions of the present invention include amino acids that have been mutated by amino acid deletion, insertion, or substitution, but have at least 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 97%, or 99% identity in the CDR regions to the CDR regions described in the above sequences. In some embodiments, it includes a mutant amino acid sequence in which no more than 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 amino acids in the CDR region have been mutated by amino acid deletion, insertion or substitution when compared to the CDR region described by the above sequence.
[0302] In addition, variable heavy chain parent nucleotide sequences are shown in SEQ ID NO: 127 to SEQ ID NO: 140. Variable light chain parent nucleotide sequences are shown in SEQ ID NO: 113 to SEQ ID NO: 126. Full-length light chain nucleotide sequences optimized for expression in mammalian cells are shown in SEQ ID NO: 161 to SEQ ID NO: 165 and SEQ ID NO: 171 to SEQ ID NO: 175. Full-length heavy chain nucleotide sequences optimized for expression in mammalian cells are shown in SEQ ID NO: 166 to SEQ ID NO: 170 and SEQ ID NO: 176 to SEQ ID NO: 180. Other antibodies included in the compositions of the present invention include mutated amino acids or are encoded by mutated nucleic acids, but the mutated amino acids or mutated nucleic acids have a percent identity of at least 60 or more (i.e., 80, 90, 95, 97, 99 or more) with the above sequences. In some embodiments, the antibody comprises a mutant amino acid sequence wherein no more than 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 amino acids in the variable region have been mutated by amino acid deletion, insertion, or substitution when compared to the variable region depicted in the above sequence.
[0303] Since each of these antibodies binds to the same epitope and is descended from the same parent antibody, V H 、V L, full-length light chain, and full-length heavy chain sequences (nucleotide and amino acid sequences) can be "mixed and matched" to generate other anti-ActRIIB binding molecules of the present disclosure. Such "mixed and matched" antibodies can be tested for ActRIIB binding using the binding assays described above and well-known methods (e.g., ELISA). When these chains are mixed and matched, the binding activity of the antibodies from a particular V H / V L Paired V H The sequence should be replaced by a structurally similar V H Likewise, the full-length heavy chain sequence from a particular full-length heavy chain / full-length light chain pairing should be replaced with a structurally similar full-length heavy chain sequence. H / V L Paired V L The sequence should be replaced by a structurally similar V L Sequence replacement. Similarly, the full-length chain sequence from a particular full-length heavy chain / full-length light chain pairing should be replaced with a structurally similar full-length chain sequence. Thus, in one aspect, the present disclosure provides a composition comprising a recombinant anti-ActRII antibody or antigen-binding region thereof having: a heavy chain variable region comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 99 to SEQ ID NO: 112; and a light chain variable region comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 85 to SEQ ID NO: 98.
[0304] In another aspect, the present disclosure provides a composition comprising:
[0305] (i) an isolated recombinant anti-ActRII antibody having: a full-length heavy chain comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 99 to SEQ ID NO: 112; and a full-length light chain comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 85 to SEQ ID NO: 98, or
[0306] (ii) a functional protein comprising the antigen-binding portion of the isolated recombinant anti-ActRII antibody.
[0307] In another aspect, the present disclosure provides a composition comprising:
[0308] (i) an isolated recombinant anti-ActRII antibody having: a full-length heavy chain encoded by a nucleotide sequence optimized for expression in mammalian cells, the nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 127 to SEQ ID NO: 140; and a full-length light chain encoded by a nucleotide sequence optimized for expression in mammalian cells, the nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 113 to SEQ ID NO: 126, or
[0309] (ii) a functional protein comprising the antigen-binding portion of the isolated recombinant anti-ActRII antibody.
[0310] The V of the antibody contained in the composition of the present invention H Examples of the amino acid sequences of CDR1 are shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 to SEQ ID NO: 14. H The amino acid sequences of CDR2 are shown in SEQ ID NO: 15 to SEQ ID NO: 28. H The amino acid sequences of CDR3 are shown in SEQ ID NO: 29 to SEQ ID NO: 42. L The amino acid sequences of CDR1 are shown in SEQ ID NO: 43 to SEQ ID NO: 56. L The amino acid sequences of CDR2 are shown in SEQ ID NO: 57 to SEQ ID NO: 70. LThe amino acid sequences of CDR3 are shown in SEQ ID NO: 71 to SEQ ID NO: 84. The Kabat system is used to delineate CDR regions (Kabat, EA et al., 1991 Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, Fifth Edition, US Department of Health and Human Services, NIH Publication No. 91-3242). An alternative method for determining CDR regions uses a method designed by Chothia (Chothia et al., 25 1989, Nature, 342: 877-883). The Chothia definition is based on the position of the structural loop regions. However, due to variations in the numbering system used by Chothia (see, for example, http: / / www.biochem.ucl.ac.uk / ~martin / abs / Generallnfo.html and http: / / www.bioinf.org.uk / abs / ), this system is now less commonly used. Other systems exist for defining CDRs, and these systems are also mentioned on these two websites.
[0311] Given that each of these antibodies can bind to ActRII and that the antigen-binding specificity is primarily provided by the CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 regions, V H CDR1, V H CDR2 and V H CDR3 sequence and V L CDR1, V L CDR2 and V L CDR3 sequences can be "mixed and matched" (i.e., CDRs from different antibodies can be mixed and matched, with each antibody containing V H CDR1, V H CDR2 and V H CDR3 and V L CDR1, V L CDR2 and V L CDR3, thereby generating other anti-ActRII binding molecules of the present disclosure. Such "mixed and matched" antibodies can be tested for ActRIIB binding using the binding assays described above and in the Examples (e.g., ELISA). H When CDR sequences are mixed and matched, H The CDR1, CDR2 and / or CDR3 sequences of the sequence should be replaced by CDR sequences with similar structures. L When CDR sequences are mixed and matched,L The CDR1, CDR2 and / or CDR3 sequences of the monoclonal antibodies shown in the present invention should be replaced by structurally similar CDR sequences. It is obvious to those of ordinary skill that by replacing one or more CDR sequences with structurally similar sequences from the CDR sequences of the monoclonal antibodies shown in the present invention, the CDR1, CDR2 and / or CDR3 sequences of the monoclonal antibodies shown in the present invention can be replaced by structurally similar CDR sequences. H and / or V L CDR region sequences can generate new V H Sequence and V L sequence.

[0329] As used herein, a human antibody comprises a heavy chain variable region or a light chain variable region or a full-length heavy chain or a full-length light chain. If the variable region or full-length chain of the antibody is obtained from a system that uses human germline immunoglobulin genes, then the heavy chain variable region or light chain variable region or full-length heavy chain or full-length light chain is the "product" or "derived from" a specific germline sequence. Such systems include immunizing transgenic mice carrying human immunoglobulin genes with an antigen of interest, or screening a human immunoglobulin gene library displayed on phage with an antigen of interest. Thus, by comparing the amino acid sequence of a human antibody with the amino acid sequence of a human germline immunoglobulin and selecting the human germline immunoglobulin sequence that is closest in sequence to the sequence of the human antibody (i.e., the greatest % identity), it is possible to identify a human antibody as a "product" or "derived from" a human germline immunoglobulin sequence. Human antibodies that are the "product" or "derived from" a particular human germline immunoglobulin sequence may contain amino acid differences compared to the germline sequence due to, for example, naturally occurring somatic mutations or intentionally introduced site-directed mutations. However, the amino acid sequence of the selected human antibody is typically at least 90% identical to the amino acid sequence encoded by the human germline immunoglobulin gene and contains amino acid residues that identify the human antibody as human when compared to the germline immunoglobulin amino acid sequences of other species (e.g., mouse germline sequences). In some cases, the amino acid sequence of the human antibody may be at least 80%, 90%, or at least 95%, or even at least 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identical to the amino acid sequence encoded by the germline immunoglobulin gene. Typically, a human antibody derived from a particular human germline sequence will exhibit no more than 10 amino acid differences from the amino acid sequence encoded by the human germline immunoglobulin gene. In some cases, a human antibody may exhibit no more than 5, or even no more than 4, 3, 2, or 1 amino acid differences from the amino acid sequence encoded by the germline immunoglobulin gene.

In other embodiments, except for the amino acid substitution at no more than 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 amino acid positions, V H and / or V L The amino acid sequences may be identical.

[0341] As used herein, the percent identity between two sequences is a function of the number of identical positions that the sequences share (i.e., the number of % identity=identical positions / position totals × 100), taking into account the number of spaces that need to be introduced to realize the optimal comparison of the two sequences and the length of each space. As described below, a mathematical algorithm can be used to complete the comparison of the sequence and to the determination of the percent identity between the two sequences.

In addition, the percent identity between two amino acid sequences can be determined using the Needleman and Wunsch (J. Mol, Biol. 48: 444-453, 1970) algorithm, which has been incorporated into the GAP program in the GCG software package (available at http: / / www.gcg.com), using a Blossom 62 matrix or a PAM250 matrix, and a gap weight of 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, 6, or 4 and a length weight of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.

[0344] In certain embodiments, the antibodies included in the compositions of the present invention have a heavy chain variable region comprising a CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 sequence and a light chain variable region comprising a CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 sequence, wherein one or more of these CDR sequences has a specified amino acid sequence based on an antibody described herein, or a variant sequence thereof comprising 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 amino acid changes, or conservative modifications thereof, and wherein the antibody retains the desired functional properties of the anti-ActRIIB antibodies of the present disclosure.
[0015] Accordingly, the present disclosure provides a composition comprising an isolated recombinant anti-ActRIIB antibody or a functional protein comprising an antigen-binding portion of an isolated recombinant anti-ActRIIB antibody, wherein the isolated recombinant anti-ActRIIB antibody or the functional protein comprising the antigen-binding portion of an isolated recombinant anti-ActRIIB antibody comprises a heavy chain variable region comprising CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 sequences, and a light chain variable region comprising CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 sequences, wherein: the heavy chain variable region CDR1 amino acid sequence is selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 1 to SEQ ID NO: 14, or variant sequences thereof comprising 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 amino acid changes, and conservative modifications thereof; the heavy chain variable region CDR2 amino acid sequence is selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 15 to SEQ ID NO: 28, or variant sequences thereof comprising 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 amino acid changes, and conservative modifications thereof; the heavy chain variable region CDR3 amino acid sequence is selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 29 to SEQ ID NO: NO:42 or a variant sequence thereof comprising 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 amino acid changes, and conservative modifications thereof; the light chain variable region CDR1 amino acid sequence is selected from SEQ ID NO:43 to SEQ ID NO:56 or a variant sequence thereof comprising 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 amino acid changes, and conservative modifications thereof; the light chain variable region CDR2 amino acid sequence is selected from SEQ ID NO:57 to SEQ ID NO:70 or a variant sequence thereof comprising 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 amino acid changes, and conservative modifications thereof; the light chain variable region CDR3 amino acid sequence is selected from SEQ ID NO:71 to SEQ ID NO:84 or a variant sequence thereof comprising 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 amino acid changes, and conservative modifications thereof. Preferably, the antibody exhibits at least one of the following functional properties: (i) it inhibits myostatin binding in vitro or in vivo, (ii) reduces inhibition of muscle differentiation through a Smad-dependent pathway, and / or (iii) does not induce hematological changes, in particular, no changes in RBCs.
[0345] In various embodiments, the antibody may exhibit one or both of the functional properties listed above. Such an antibody may be, for example, a human antibody, a humanized antibody, or a chimeric antibody.
[0346] In other embodiments, the antibodies included in the compositions of the present invention that are optimized for expression in mammalian cells have full-length heavy chain sequences and full-length light chain sequences, wherein one or more of these sequences have a specified amino acid sequence based on an antibody described herein or a conservative modification thereof, and wherein the antibody retains the desired functional properties of the anti-ActRIIB antibodies of the present disclosure. Accordingly, the present disclosure provides a composition comprising an isolated monoclonal anti-ActRII antibody that is optimized for expression in mammalian cells, the isolated monoclonal anti-ActRII antibody consisting of a full-length heavy chain and a full-length light chain, wherein: the full-length heavy chain has an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 146 to SEQ ID NO: 150 and SEQ ID NO: 156 to SEQ ID NO: 160, or variant sequences thereof comprising 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 amino acid changes, and conservative modifications thereof; and the full-length light chain has an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 141 to SEQ ID NO: 145 and SEQ ID NO: 151 to SEQ ID NO: NO:155 or its variant sequence comprising 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 amino acid changes and conservative modifications thereof; and the antibody exhibits at least one of the following functional properties: (i) it inhibits myostatin binding in vitro or in vivo, (ii) reduces inhibition of muscle differentiation through a Smad-dependent pathway, and / or (iii) does not induce hematological changes, in particular no changes in RBCs.
[0347] In various embodiments, the antibody may exhibit one or both of the functional properties listed above. Such an antibody may be, for example, a human antibody, a humanized antibody, or a chimeric antibody.
[0348] As used herein, the term "conservative sequence modification" refers to amino acid modifications that do not significantly affect or alter the binding characteristics of the antibody containing the amino acid sequence. Such conservative modifications include amino acid substitutions, additions, and deletions. Modifications can be introduced into the antibodies of the present disclosure by standard techniques known in the art, such as site-directed mutagenesis and PCR-mediated mutagenesis.
[0349] Conservative amino acid substitutions are amino acid substitutions in which amino acid residues are replaced by amino acid residues with similar side chains. Families of amino acid residues with similar side chains have been defined in the art. These families include amino acids with basic side chains (e.g., lysine, arginine, histidine), amino acids with acidic side chains (e.g., aspartic acid, glutamic acid), amino acids with uncharged polar side chains (e.g., glycine, asparagine, glutamine, serine, threonine, tyrosine, cysteine, tryptophan), amino acids with non-polar side chains (e.g., alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, methionine), amino acids with beta-branched side chains (e.g., threonine, valine, isoleucine), and amino acids with aromatic side chains (e.g., tyrosine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, histidine). Therefore, one or more amino acid residues in the CDR regions of antibodies of the present disclosure can be replaced with other amino acid residues from the same side chain family, and functional assays described herein can be used to test whether the antibody of the change retains function.
[0350] Antibodies that bind to the same epitope as the anti-ActRII antibodies included in the disclosed compositions
[0351] In another embodiment, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising antibodies that bind to the same epitope as the various specific anti-ActRII antibodies described herein. All antibodies described in the Examples that block myostatin binding to ActRIIA and ActRIIB bind with high affinity to one of the epitopes in ActRIIA and ActRIIB that is contained between amino acids 19-134 of SEQ ID NO: 181.
[0352] Thus, additional antibodies can be identified based on their ability to cross-compete with other antibodies of the present disclosure (e.g., competitively inhibit the binding of other antibodies of the present disclosure in a statistically significant manner) in a standard ActRIIB binding assay. The ability of a test antibody to inhibit the binding of an antibody contained in the composition of the present invention to human ActRIIB indicates that the test antibody can compete with the antibody for binding to human ActRIIB; according to non-limiting theory, such an antibody may bind to the same or related (e.g., structurally similar or spatially adjacent) epitope on human ActRIIB as the antibody it competes with. In a certain embodiment, the antibody that binds to the same epitope on human ActRIIA and ActRIIA as the antibody contained in the composition of the present invention is a human recombinant antibody. Such human recombinant antibodies can be prepared and isolated as described in the Examples. Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising antibodies that bind to an epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 85 and a variable light chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 99 and / or compete for binding with an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 85 and a variable light chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 99.
[0353] Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising antibodies that bind to the epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:86 and a variable light chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:100.
[0354] Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising an antibody that binds to an epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 87 and a variable light chain sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 101. Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising an antibody that binds to an epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 88 and a variable light chain sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 102. Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising an antibody that binds to an epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 89 and a variable light chain sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 103.
[0355] Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising antibodies that bind to the epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:90 and a variable light chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:104.
[0356] Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising antibodies that bind to the epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:91 and a variable light chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:105.
[0357] Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising antibodies that bind to an epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:92 and a variable light chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:106.
[0358] Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising antibodies that bind to an epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:93 and a variable light chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:107.
[0359] Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising antibodies that bind to an epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:94 and a variable light chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:108.
[0360] Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising antibodies that bind to the epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:95 and a variable light chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:109.
[0361] Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising antibodies that bind to an epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:96 and a variable light chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:110.
[0362] Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising antibodies that bind to an epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:97 and a variable light chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:111.
[0363] Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising antibodies that bind to an epitope recognized by an antibody having a variable heavy chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:98 and a variable light chain sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:112.
[0364] Following more detailed epitope mapping experiments, the binding regions of the preferred antibodies of the compositions of the invention have been more clearly defined.
[0365] Thus, the present disclosure provides compositions comprising an antibody that binds to an epitope comprising amino acids 78-83 (WLDDFN - SEQ ID NO: 188) of SEQ ID NO: 181. The present disclosure also provides compositions comprising an antibody that binds to an epitope comprising amino acids 76-84 (GCWLDDFNC - SEQ ID NO: 186) of SEQ ID NO: 181.
[0366] The present disclosure also provides compositions comprising an antibody that binds to an epitope comprising amino acids 75-85 of SEQ ID NO: 181 (KGCWLDDFNCY—SEQ ID NO: 190).

The present disclosure also provides compositions comprising an antibody that binds to an epitope comprising amino acids 49-63 (CEGEQDKRLHCYASW - SEQ ID NO: 187) of SEQ ID NO: 181.
[0368] The present disclosure also provides compositions comprising an antibody that binds to an epitope comprising or consisting of amino acids 29-41 of SEQ ID NO: 181 (CIYYNANWELERT-SEQ ID NO: 191).
[0369] The present disclosure also provides compositions comprising an antibody that binds to an epitope comprising or consisting of amino acids 100-110 of SEQ ID NO: 181 (YFCCCEGNFCN-SEQ ID NO: 192).
[0370] The present disclosure also provides compositions comprising antibodies that bind to epitopes consisting of these sequences or comprising a combination of these epitope regions.
[0371] Thus, the present disclosure also provides compositions comprising an antibody that binds to an epitope comprising or consisting of amino acids 78-83 of SEQ ID NO: 181 (WLDDFN) and amino acids 52-56 of SEQ ID NO: 181 (EQDKR).
[0372] Engineered and modified antibodies
[0373] Antibodies included in the compositions of the present invention may also be used with V H and / or V L Antibodies containing one or more of the sequences are prepared as starting materials to engineer modified antibodies that may have altered properties compared to the starting antibody. Antibodies can be engineered by modifying one or two variable regions (i.e., V H and / or V L ), for example, one or more residues within one or more CDR regions and / or or one or more residues within one or more framework regions. Additionally or alternatively, the antibody can be engineered by modifying residues within one or more constant regions, for example, to alter the effector functions of the antibody.
[0374] One type of variable region engineering that can be performed is CDR grafting. Antibodies interact with target antigens primarily through amino acid residues located in the six heavy and light chain complementary determining regions (CDRs). Therefore, the amino acid sequences within the CDRs are more diverse between antibodies than the sequences outside the CDRs. Because CDR sequences are responsible for most antibody-antigen interactions, recombinant antibodies that mimic the properties of a specific naturally occurring antibody can be expressed by constructing expression vectors that include the CDR sequences from a specific naturally occurring antibody grafted onto framework sequences from a different antibody with different properties (see, e.g., Riechmann, L. et al., 1998 Nature 332:323-327; Jones, P. et al., 1986 Nature 321:522-525; Queen, C. et al., 1989 Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 86:10029-10033; U.S. Pat. No. 5,225,539 to Winter, and U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,530,101; 5,585,089; 5,693,762 and 6,180,370 to Queen et al.).
[0375] Accordingly, another embodiment of the present disclosure is directed to a composition comprising a monoclonal anti-ActRII antibody, or a functional protein comprising an antigen-binding portion of a monoclonal anti-ActRII antibody, comprising a heavy chain variable region comprising: a CDR1 sequence having an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 1 to SEQ ID NO: 14; a CDR2 sequence having an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 15 to SEQ ID NO: 28; and a CDR3 sequence having an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 29 to SEQ ID NO: 42; and a light chain variable region comprising: a CDR1 sequence having an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 43 to SEQ ID NO: 56; a CDR2 sequence having an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 57 to SEQ ID NO: 70; and a CDR3 sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 71 to SEQ ID NO: 84. Therefore, these antibodies contain the V H CDR sequences and V L CDR sequences, but may contain different framework sequences from these antibodies.
[0376] Such framework sequences can be obtained from public references or public DNA databases that include germline antibody gene sequences. For example, the germline DNA sequences of human heavy and light chain variable region genes can be found in the "VBase" human germline sequence database (available on the Internet at www.mrc-cpe.cam.ac.uk / vbase), as well as in Kabat, EA et al., [as described above]; Tomlinson, IM et al., 1992 J. fol. Biol. 227: 776-798; and Cox, JPL et al., 1994 Eur. J Immunol. 24: 827-836. Examples of framework sequences used in the antibodies of the present disclosure are those that are structurally similar to the framework sequences used for the selected antibodies of the present disclosure (e.g., the consensus sequences and / or framework sequences used for the monoclonal antibodies of the present disclosure). V H CDR1, V H CDR2 and V H CDR3 sequence and V L CDR1, V L CDR2 and V LThe CDR3 sequence is grafted onto a framework region having the same sequence as that found in the germline immunoglobulin gene from which the framework sequence is derived, or the CDR sequence can be grafted onto a framework region containing one or more mutations compared to the germline sequence. For example, it has been found that in certain circumstances, mutating residues within the framework region is beneficial for maintaining or enhancing the antigen-binding ability of the antibody (see, e.g., U.S. Patents 5,530,101; 5,585,089; 5,693,762 and 6,180,370 to Queen et al.).
[0377] Another type of variable region modification is to make V H and / or V L Amino acid residue mutations within the CDR1, CDR2 and / or CDR3 regions, thereby improving one or more binding properties (e.g., affinity) of an antibody of interest, are referred to as "affinity maturation." Site-directed mutagenesis or PCR-mediated mutagenesis can be performed to introduce one or more mutations, and the impact on antibody binding or other functional properties of interest can be assessed in an in vitro or in vivo assay as described herein and provided in the Examples. Conservative modifications (as described above) can be introduced. Mutations can be amino acid substitutions, additions, or deletions. In addition, typically no more than one, two, three, four, or five residues are changed within the CDR regions.
[0378] Thus, in another embodiment, the present disclosure provides an isolated anti-ActRII monoclonal antibody, or a functional protein comprising an antigen-binding portion of an isolated anti-ActRII monoclonal antibody, comprising a heavy chain variable region and a light chain variable region, wherein the heavy chain variable region has: V H CDR1 region, the V H The CDR1 region consists of an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 1 to SEQ ID NO: 14, or an amino acid sequence having one, two, three, four or five amino acid substitutions, deletions or additions compared to SEQ ID NO: 1 to SEQ ID NO: 14; H CDR2 region, the V H The CDR2 region has an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 15 to SEQ ID NO: 28, or an amino acid sequence having one, two, three, four or five amino acid substitutions, deletions or additions compared to SEQ ID NO: 15 to SEQ ID NO: 28; H CDR3 region, the V HThe CDR3 region has an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 29 to SEQ ID NO: 42, or an amino acid sequence having one, two, three, four or five amino acid substitutions, deletions or additions compared to SEQ ID NO: 29 to SEQ ID NO: 42; L CDR1 region; the heavy chain variable region has: the V L The CDR1 region has an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 43 to SEQ ID NO: 56, or an amino acid sequence having one, two, three, four or five amino acid substitutions, deletions or additions compared to SEQ ID NO: 43 to SEQ ID NO: 56; L CDR2 region, the V L The CDR2 region has an amino acid sequence consisting of the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 52 to SEQ ID NO: 70, or an amino acid sequence having one, two, three, four or five amino acid substitutions, deletions or additions compared to SEQ ID NO: 52 to SEQ ID NO: 70; and V L CDR3 region, the V L The CDR3 region has an amino acid sequence of the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 71 to SEQ ID NO: 84, or an amino acid sequence having one, two, three, four or five amino acid substitutions, deletions or additions compared to SEQ ID NO: 71 to SEQ ID NO: 84.
[0379] Camelid antibodies
[0380] Antibody proteins obtained from camels and members of the dromedary family (Camelus bactrianus and Camelus dromaderius), including New World members such as llama species (Lama paccos, Lama glama, and Lamavicugna), have been characterized in terms of size, structural complexity, and antigenicity to human subjects. Certain IgG antibodies from this mammalian family found in nature lack light chains and are therefore structurally distinct from the typical four-chain quaternary structure of antibodies from other animals, having two heavy chains and two light chains (see WO 94 / 04678).
[0381] A region of camelid antibodies identified as V HHSmall single variable domains (SBDs) can be obtained by genetically engineering small proteins with high affinity for their targets, thereby generating low molecular weight antibody-derived proteins known as “camelid nanobodies” (see US 5,759,808; Stijlemans, B. et al., 2004 J Biol Chem 279:1256-1261; Dumoulin, M. et al., 2003 Nature 424:783-788; Pleschberger, M. et al., 2003 Bioconjugate Chem 14:440-448; Cortez-Retamozo, V. et al., 2002 Int J Cancer 89:456-62; and Lauwereys, M. et al., 1998 EMBO J 17:3512-3520). Engineered libraries of camelid antibodies and antibody fragments are commercially available, for example from Ablynx, Ghent, Belgium. As with other non-human antibodies, the amino acid sequence of camelid antibodies can be recombinantly altered to more closely resemble human sequences, i.e., Nanobodies can be “humanized.” Thus, the naturally low antigenicity of camelid antibodies to humans can be further reduced.
[0382] The molecular weight of camelid nanobodies is approximately one-tenth that of a human IgG molecule, and the physical diameter of the protein is only a few nanometers. One consequence of their small size is that camelid nanobodies have the ability to bind to antigenic sites that are functionally invisible to larger antibody proteins, meaning that camelid nanobodies can be used as reagents for detecting antigens that are hidden using classical immunological techniques, as well as as potential therapeutic agents. Consequently, another consequence of their small size is that camelid nanobodies can inhibit by binding to specific sites in grooves or narrow crevices of target proteins, thus potentially providing the ability to more closely approximate the function of classical low-molecular-weight drugs than classical antibodies.
[0383] Low molecular weight and compact size further result in camel family nano antibodies being extremely heat stable, stable to extreme pH and proteolytic digestion, and poor antigenicity. Another result is that camel family nano antibodies easily move from the circulatory system to tissues, even across the blood-brain barrier and can treat diseases affecting nervous tissue. Nano antibodies can further promote drug transport across the blood-brain barrier (see US2004 / 0161738). The combination of these features and low antigenicity to humans shows huge therapeutic potential. In addition, these molecules can be fully expressed in prokaryotic cells such as E. coli, and are expressed as fusion proteins and are functional using phage.
[0384] Thus, in one embodiment, the present disclosure relates to a composition comprising a camelid antibody or nanobody with high affinity for ActRIIB. In certain embodiments herein, the camelid antibody or nanobody is naturally produced in a camelid, i.e., produced by a camelid following immunization with ActRIIB or a peptide fragment thereof, using the techniques described herein for other antibodies. Alternatively, the anti-ActRIIB camelid nanobody is engineered, i.e., produced by selecting from a phage library displaying appropriately mutagenized camelid nanobody proteins using a panning procedure targeting ActRIIB, as described in the Examples herein. The engineered nanobody can be further customized by genetic engineering so that the half-life in the recipient subject is from 45 minutes to two weeks. In a specific embodiment, the camelid antibody or nanobody is obtained by transplanting the CDR sequences of the heavy or light chain of a human antibody of the present disclosure into a nanobody or single domain antibody framework sequence, as described, for example, in WO94 / 04678.
[0385] Non-antibody scaffolds
[0386] Known non-immunoglobulin frameworks or scaffolds include, but are not limited to, Adnectin (fibronectin) (Compound Therapeutics, Inc., Waltham, MA), ankyrin (Molecular Partners AG, Zurich, Switzerland), domain antibodies (Domantis, Ltd (Cambridge, MA) and Ablynx nv (Zwijnaarde, Belgium)), lipocalins (Anticalins) (Pieris Proteolab AG, Freising, Germany), small modular immunopharmaceuticals (Trubion Pharmaceuticals Inc., Seattle, WA), maxybodies (Avidia, Inc. (Mountain View, CA)), protein A (Affibody AG, Sweden), and affilin (γ-crystallin or ubiquitin) (Scil Proteins GmbH, Halle, Germany), protein epitope mimetics (Polyphor Ltd, Allschwil, Switzerland).
[0387] (i) Fibronectin scaffold
[0388] The fibronectin scaffold is preferably based on a type III fibronectin domain (e.g., the tenth module of type III fibronectin (10Fn3 domain)). The type III fibronectin domain has 7 or 8 β-strands distributed between two β-sheets, which themselves wrap around each other to form a protein core and further contain loops (similar to CDRs) that connect the β-strands to each other and are exposed to the solvent. There are at least three such loops at each edge of the β-sheet sandwich, where the edge is the boundary of the protein perpendicular to the direction of the β-strands (US 6,818,418).
[0389] These fibronectin-based scaffolds are not immunoglobulins, although the overall fold is closely related to the folding of the smallest functional antibody fragment, the heavy chain variable region, which contains the complete antigen recognition unit in camel and llama IgG. Due to this structure, non-immunoglobulin antibodies mimic antigen binding properties similar to antibodies in terms of properties and affinity. These scaffolds can be used for in vitro loop randomization and shuffling strategies, which are similar to the in vivo affinity maturation process of antibodies. These fibronectin-based molecules can be used as scaffolds, wherein the loop regions of the molecule can be replaced with the CDRs of the present disclosure using standard cloning techniques.
[0390] (ii) Ankyrin-molecular partner
[0391] This technology is based on the use of proteins with ankyrin-derived repeat modules as scaffolds to host variable regions that can be used to bind to different targets. The ankyrin repeat module is a 33-amino acid polypeptide composed of two antiparallel α-helices and a β-turn. The binding of the variable regions is primarily optimized using ribosome display.
[0392] (iii) Maxi-Avimers-Avidia
[0393] Avimers are derived from proteins containing natural A domains, such as LRP-1. These domains are naturally used for protein-protein interactions, and in humans, more than 250 proteins are structurally based on A domains. Avimers are composed of many different "A-domain" monomers (2-10) connected by amino acid linkers. Avimers capable of binding to target antigens can be produced using methods described in, for example, US2004 / 0175756; US2005 / 0053973; US2005 / 0048512; and US2006 / 0008844.
[0394] (vi) Protein A-Affibody
[0395] The affinity ligand is a simple small protein consisting of a three-helix bundle based on a scaffold from one of the IgG binding domains of protein A. Protein A is a surface protein from the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus. This scaffold domain consists of 58 amino acids, 13 of which are randomized to generate a large number of ligand variants. Libraries (see, for example, US 5,831,012). The molecule mimics antibodies, with a molecular weight of 6kDa, compared to 150kDa for antibodies. Despite its small size, The binding site of the molecule is similar to that of an antibody.
[0396] (v)Anticalins-Pieris
[0397] These products are developed by Pieris ProteoLab AG. They are derived from lipocalins, a widespread group of small, robust proteins that are often involved in the physiological transport or storage of chemically sensitive or insoluble compounds. Several naturally occurring lipocalins are found in human tissues and fluids. The protein architecture is reminiscent of immunoglobulins, with hypervariable loops atop a rigid framework. However, in contrast to antibodies or their recombinant fragments, lipocalins consist of a single polypeptide chain of 160 to 180 amino acid residues, only slightly larger than a single immunoglobulin domain. The set of four loops that form the binding pocket exhibits significant structural plasticity and tolerates a variety of side chains. Therefore, the binding site can be reshaped in a proprietary process to recognize target molecules of varying shapes with high affinity and specificity.
[0398] One protein of the lipocalin family, the biletriene binding protein (BBP) of Pieris brassicae, has been used to develop anticalins by mutagenesis of the set of four loops. An example of a patent application describing "anticalins" is WO 1999 / 16873.
[0399] (vi) Affilin-Scil Proteins
[0400] AFFILIN TM The molecules are small non-immunoglobulin proteins designed for specific affinity to proteins and small molecules. New AFFILINs can be selected very quickly from two libraries TM The libraries are composed of molecules, each of which is based on a different human scaffold protein.
[0401] AFFILIN TMThe molecule does not show any structural homology to immunoglobulin proteins. Scil Proteins utilizes two AFFILIN TM The scaffolds are γ-crystalline, a human structural eye lens protein, and the other is a protein from the "ubiquitin" superfamily. Both human scaffolds are very small, exhibit high-temperature stability, and are nearly resistant to pH changes and denaturants. This high stability is primarily due to the protein's extended beta-sheet structure. Examples of γ-crystalline-derived proteins are described in WO 2001 / 004144, and examples of "ubiquitin-like" proteins are described in WO 2004 / 106368.
[0402] (vii) Protein epitope mimetics (PEMs)
[0403] PEMs are medium-sized cyclic peptide-like molecules (MW 1-2 kDa) that mimic the β-hairpin secondary structure of proteins, which is the main secondary structure involved in protein-protein interactions.
[0404] Grafting antigen-binding domains into alternative frameworks or scaffolds
[0405] A variety of antibody / immunoglobulin frameworks or scaffolds can be employed, so long as the resulting polypeptide comprises at least one binding region that specifically binds to ActRIIB. Such frameworks or scaffolds include the five major idiotypes of human immunoglobulins or fragments thereof (such as those disclosed elsewhere herein), and include immunoglobulins from other animal species, preferably with humanized aspects. In this regard, single heavy chain antibodies, such as those identified in camelids, are of particular interest. Those skilled in the art will continue to explore and develop new frameworks, scaffolds, and fragments.
[0406] In one aspect, the compositions of the present disclosure may comprise non-immunoglobulin-based antibodies using non-immunoglobulin scaffolds onto which the CDRs of the disclosed antibodies may be grafted. Known or future non-immunoglobulin frameworks and scaffolds may be employed, as long as they comprise a binding region specific for the target protein shown in SEQ ID NO: 181 (preferably, a ligand binding domain thereof as shown in SEQ ID NO: 182). Such compounds are referred to herein as "polypeptides comprising a target-specific binding region". Examples of non-immunoglobulin frameworks are further described in the following sections (Camelidae Antibodies and Non-Antibody Scaffolds).
[0407] Framework or Fc engineering
[0408] The engineered antibodies included in the compositions of the present disclosure include those in which V H and / or VL In some embodiments, the framework residues within the antibody are modified, for example to improve the properties of the antibody. Typically, such framework modifications are performed to reduce the immunogenicity of the antibody. For example, one method is to "backmutate" one or more framework residues to the corresponding germline sequence. More specifically, an antibody that has undergone somatic mutation may contain framework residues that are different from the germline sequence from which the antibody is derived. Such residues can be identified by comparing the antibody framework sequence with the germline sequence from which the antibody is derived. In order to restore the framework region sequence to its germline configuration, the somatic mutation can be "backmutated" to the germline sequence by, for example, site-directed mutagenesis or PCR-mediated mutagenesis. Such "backmutated" antibodies may also be included in the compositions of the present disclosure.
[0409] Another type of framework modification involves mutating one or more residues within the framework region or even within one or more CDR regions to remove T cell epitopes, thereby reducing the potential immunogenicity of the antibody. This approach is also known as "deimmunization" and is described in further detail in US2003 / 0153043.
[0410] As a supplement or alternative to modifications made in the framework or CDR regions, the antibodies of the present disclosure can be engineered to include modifications in the Fc region, typically to alter one or more functional properties of the antibody, such as serum half-life, complement fixation, Fc receptor binding, and / or antigen-dependent cellular toxicity. In addition, the antibodies included in the compositions of the present disclosure can be chemically modified (e.g., one or more chemical moieties can be attached to the antibody) or can be modified to alter its glycosylation to again alter one or more functional properties of the antibody. Each of these embodiments is described in further detail below. The numbering of residues in the Fc region is that of the EU index of Kabat.
[0411] In one embodiment, the hinge region of CH1 is modified such that the number of cysteine residues in the hinge region is altered, e.g., increased or decreased. This approach is further described in US Pat. No. 5,677,425. The number of cysteine residues in the hinge region of CH1 is altered to, for example, facilitate assembly of the light and heavy chains or to increase or decrease antibody stability.
[0412] In another embodiment, the Fc hinge region of an antibody is mutated to reduce the biological half-life of the antibody. More specifically, one or more amino acid mutations are introduced into the CH2-CH3 domain interface region of the Fc-hinge fragment such that the antibody has impaired Staphylococcal protein A (SpA) binding relative to native-Fc hinge domain SpA binding. This approach is further described in US 6,165,745.
[0413] In another embodiment, the antibody is modified to extend its biological half-life. Various methods are possible. For example, one or more of the following mutations can be introduced: T252L, T254S, T256F, as described in US Pat. No. 6,277,375. Alternatively, to extend biological half-life, the antibody can be modified within the CH1 or CL region to include salvage receptor binding epitopes derived from two loops of the CH2 domain of the Fc region of IgG, as described in US Pat. Nos. 5,869,046 and 6,121,022.
[0414] In other embodiments, the Fc region is changed by replacing at least one amino acid residue with a different amino acid residue to change the effector function of the antibody. For example, one or more amino acids can be replaced with different amino acid residues so that the antibody has a changed affinity for the effector ligand, but retains the antigen binding ability of the parent antibody. The effector ligand to which its affinity is changed can be, for example, an Fc receptor or the C1 component of complement. This method is further described in detail in US5,624,821 and US5,648,260 by Winter et al. Specifically, residues 234 and 235 can be mutated. Specifically, these mutations can be to become alanine. Therefore, in one embodiment, the antibody included in the composition of the present disclosure has a mutation at one or both of amino acids 234 and 235 in the Fc region. In another embodiment, one or both of amino acids 234 and 235 can be substituted with alanine. Both amino acids 234 and 235 are substituted with alanine, resulting in reduced ADCC activity.
[0415] In another embodiment, one or more amino acids selected from the amino acid residues of the antibody can be replaced with a different amino acid residue such that the antibody has altered C1q binding and / or reduced or abolished complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC). This approach is described in further detail in US 6,194,551.
[0416] In another embodiment, one or more amino acid residues of the antibody are altered to thereby alter the ability of the antibody to fix complement. This approach is further described in WO94 / 29351.
[0417] In another embodiment, the Fc region of the antibody is modified by modifying one or more amino acids to enhance the ability of the antibody to mediate antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and / or to enhance the affinity of the antibody for Fcγ receptors. This approach is further described in WO00 / 42072. In addition, the binding sites of FcγRI, FcγRII, FcγRIII, and FcRn on human IgG1 have been mapped, and variants with improved binding have been described (see Shields, RL et al., 2001 J. Biol. Chen. 276: 6591-6604).
[0418] In another embodiment, the glycosylation of the antibody contained in the composition of the present disclosure is modified. For example, an aglycoslated antibody can be prepared (i.e., the antibody lacks glycosylation). Glycosylation can be changed to, for example, increase the affinity of the antibody for the antigen. Such carbohydrate modifications can be achieved by, for example, changing one or more glycosylation sites within the antibody sequence. For example, one or more amino acid substitutions can be made that result in the elimination of one or more variable region framework glycosylation sites, thereby eliminating glycosylation at the site. Such glycosylation can enhance the affinity of the antibody for the antigen. Such methods are further described in detail in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,714,350 and 6,350,861 to Co et al.
[0419] Additionally or alternatively, antibodies with altered glycosylation patterns may be used, such as hypofucosylated antibodies with reduced amounts of fucosyl residues or antibodies with increased bisecting GsNac structures. Such altered glycosylation patterns have been shown to enhance the ADCC ability of antibodies. Such carbohydrate modifications can be achieved, for example, by expressing the antibody in a h...
