Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of application number CN201680040163.X (PCT application number PCT / IL2016 / 050600), application date June 8, 2016, and invention name "Affinity entity with TCR-like antibody binding domain with high affinity and excellent specificity and its use".

[0002] Technical field and background technology

[0003] The present invention, in some embodiments thereof, relates to a plurality of affinity binding entities, including a class of TCR antibody binding domains with high affinity and excellent specificity, and uses thereof.

[0004] Multiple cells in tumors and virus infections are expressed by multiple CD8 + Cytotoxic T cells recognize and, in response, + Cytotoxic T cells are activated to destroy these cells. In order to be activated, the clonal T cell receptor (TCR) needs to encounter a specific peptide antigen presented by the major tissue compatibility complex (MHC) molecule on the cell membrane surface. After malignant transformation or viral infection, multiple cells express tumor-associated antigens or viral proteins derived from multiple first-class MHC molecules of the cells. Therefore, multiple disease-specific MHC-peptide complexes are ideal targets for multiple immunotherapy methods. One such method transforms the unique excellent specificity but low inherent affinity of multiple TCRs for MHC peptide complexes into multiple high-affinity soluble antibody molecules with a class of TCR specificity for multiple tumor or viral epitopes. The multiple antibodies, called multiple TCR antibodies, are developed as a new class of immunotherapeutic drugs that can target multiple tumors and virus-infected cells and mediate their specific killing. In addition to their multiple therapeutic capabilities, TCR-like antibodies are developed as multiple diagnostic reagents for cancer and multiple infectious diseases, as well as multiple valuable research tools for studying the expression of the first-class MHC antigens.

[0129] The present invention, in some embodiments thereof, relates to a plurality of affinity binding entities, including a class of TCR antibody binding domains with high affinity and excellent specificity, and uses thereof.

[0130] Before explaining at least one embodiment of the present invention in detail, it should be understood that the present invention is not necessarily limited to the details of the present invention described below or the multiple embodiments exemplified. The present invention can be implemented or applied in other embodiments or in various ways.

[0131] T cell receptor (TCR)-like (TCRL) is endowed with a class of TCR specificity for multiple tumor epitopes. Unlike multiple TCRs that show low affinity for MHC peptide antigen complexes, multiple TCRLs have the property that even the soluble form of the multiple TCRLs has affinity. TCRLs are developed as a novel therapeutic class for targeting multiple tumor cells and mediating their specific killing. In addition, the multiple antibodies are multiple valuable research reagents, allowing the study of human class I peptide-MHC ligand expression and TCR-peptide-MHC multiple interactions.

[0132] The inventors have now identified novel TCRLs through laborious screening and experimentation, which exhibit unprecedentedly good specificity for TyrD-HLA-A2 (D7 and D11), WT1-HLA-A2 (B47), MAGE-A4-HLA-A2 (C106B9), MAGE-A9-HLA-A2 (F184C7) and PAP (D10A3). The CDRs of the antibodies can be implanted in any affinity binding entity, such as having an effector activity (e.g., CAR and TCR).

[0133] Therefore, according to one aspect of some embodiments of the present invention, there is provided an affinity binding entity, the affinity binding entity comprising an antigen binding region, the antigen binding region comprising a plurality of complementarity determining region (CDR) sequences arranged from N-terminus to C-terminus:

[0134]

[0135] The affinity binding entity is capable of binding to HLA-A2 / TyrD in a human major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-restricted manner 369-377 .

[0136] According to one aspect of some embodiments of the present invention, there is provided an affinity binding entity, the affinity binding entity comprising an antigen binding region, the antigen binding region comprising a plurality of complementarity determining region (CDR) sequences arranged from N-terminus to C-terminus:

[0137]

[0138] The affinity binding entity is capable of binding HLA-A2 / TyrD in an MHC-restricted manner 369-377 .

[0139] According to one aspect of some embodiments of the present invention, there is provided an affinity binding entity, the affinity binding entity comprising an antigen binding region, the antigen binding region comprising a plurality of complementarity determining region (CDR) sequences arranged from N-terminus to C-terminus:

[0140]

[0141] The affinity binding entity is capable of binding to HLA-A2 / WT1 in an MHC-restricted manner 126-134 .

[0142] According to one aspect of some embodiments of the present invention, there is provided an affinity binding entity, characterized in that the affinity binding entity comprises an antigen binding region, wherein the antigen binding region comprises a plurality of complementarity determining region (CDR) sequences arranged from N-terminus to C-terminus:

[0143]

[0144] The affinity binding entity is capable of binding HLA-A2 / MAGE-A4 in an MHC-restricted manner 328-343 .

[0145] According to one aspect of some embodiments of the present invention, there is provided an affinity binding entity, the affinity binding entity comprising an antigen binding region, the antigen binding region comprising a plurality of complementarity determining region (CDR) sequences arranged from N-terminus to C-terminus:

[0146]

[0147] The affinity binding entity is capable of binding HLA-A2 / MAGE-A9 in an MHC-restricted manner 344-359 .

[0148] According to one aspect of some embodiments of the present invention, there is provided an affinity binding entity, the affinity binding entity comprising an antigen binding region, the antigen binding region comprising a plurality of complementarity determining region (CDR) sequences arranged from N-terminus to C-terminus:

[0149]

[0150] The affinity binding entity is capable of binding to HLA-A2 / PAP in an MHC-restricted manner 360-375 .

[0151] As used herein, a "T cell receptor-like antibody" or "TCRL" refers to an antibody that binds to an MHC complexed with an HLA-restricted peptide antigen. The binding of TCRL to the TCRL target has an MHC-restricted specificity. In the absence of the complexed peptide, the TCRL antibody does not bind to the MHC, and in the absence of the MHC, the antibody does not bind to the peptide.

[0152] As used herein, "binding" or "binds" refers to binding in an antibody-antigen format, wherein typically, in the case of clinically relevant TCRL, K is measured by surface plasmon resonance analysis (SPR). D The concentration is below 20 nanomolar.

[0153] The affinity of the antigen binding domain to the antigen of the antigen binding domain is determined using the soluble form of the antibody from which the CDRs of the antigen binding domain of the antibody are derived. For affinity assessment, the antigen is a soluble form of the antigen, e.g., a single chain MHC peptide complex as described further below.

[0154] As used herein, the term "K D ” refers to the equilibrium dissociation constant between the antigen binding domain and the corresponding antigen of the antigen binding domain.

[0155] It will be appreciated that the affinity of the affinity binding entity is determined by the plurality of CDRs. However, the affinity can be improved using a variety of methods known in the art, such as affinity maturation.

[0156] As used herein, an "affinity binding entity" refers to a binding moiety that binds to a specific antigen with a higher affinity than to a non-specific antigen and confers an affinity of at least 10 -6 Molar concentration is as determined by a variety of tests known in the art, including surface plasmon resonance (SPR).

[0157] According to a specific embodiment, the affinity is 500 nanomolar-0.5 nanomolar, 100 nanomolar-1 nanomolar, 50 nanomolar-1 nanomolar, 20 nanomolar-1 nanomolar, 10 nanomolar-1 nanomolar.

[0158] The affinity portion can be selected from the group consisting of TCR, CAR-T and antibody.

[0159] According to a specific embodiment, the affinity binding entity is an antibody. Although the references to the plurality of antibodies are detailed compared to other affinity binding entities, the description of this embodiment should not be construed as limiting, and the invention is equally relevant to the plurality of binding entities described herein, particularly in the sense of the cell therapy described further below.

[0160] The term "antibody" used in the present invention includes multiple complete molecules and multiple functional fragments of the complete molecules, such as Fab, F(ab')2, Fv, scFv, dsFv or multiple single domain molecules, such as VH and VL, which can bind to an epitope of an antigen in an MHC-restricted form. As a more basic statement, the term "antibody" is intended to include any affinity binding entity that binds to a molecule expressed on the surface of a cell with an MHC-restricted specificity. Therefore, multiple CDRs of the antibodies of some embodiments of the present invention can be implanted in multiple artificial molecules, such as T cell receptors or multiple CARs, as further described below.

[0161] Suitable antibody fragments for implementing some embodiments of the present invention include a complementarity determining region (CDR) of an immunoglobulin light chain (referred to herein as "light chain"), a complementarity determining region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain (referred to herein as "heavy chain"), a light chain variable region, a heavy chain variable region, a light chain, a heavy chain, a Fd fragment, and the antibody fragments substantially include light chains and heavy chains, such as an Fv region, a single-chain Fv (scFv), a disulfide bond-stabilized Fv (dsFv), a Fab, a Fab' and a F(ab')2.

[0162] As used herein, the terms "complementarity determining region" or "CDR" are used interchangeably to refer to the multiple antigen binding regions found within the variable regions of the multiple heavy and light chain polypeptides. Generally, multiple antibodies include three CDRs in each of the VH (CDR HI or HI; CDR H2 or H2; and CDR H3 or H3); and three in each of the VL (CDR LI or LI; CDR L2 or L2; and CDR L3 or L3). Multiple examples of the multiple CDR sequences are provided for D7 and D11-TCRL prepared according to Example 1 below. Additional examples include WT1 B47B6, MAGE-A4 C106B9, MAGE-A9 F184C7, PAP D10A3 (such as Figures 68-73 shown).

[0163] The identity of the amino acid residues that make up a variable region or a CDR in a particular antibody can be determined using methods known in the art and include, for example, the method of sequence variability defined by Kabat et al. (see, e.g., Kabat et al., 1992, Protein Sequences of Immunity Related, 5th Ed., Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Washington, D.C.), the positions of the structural loop regions as defined by Chothia et al. (see, e.g., Chothia et al., Nature 342:877-883, 1989), using Newton's Molecular AbM antibody modeling software (now See Martin et al., 1989, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 86:9268; and the global website www.bioinf-org.uk / abs) A compromise between Kabat and Chothia, as defined by the contact definition available in complex crystal structures (see MacCallum et al., J. Mol. Biol. 262:732-745, 1996), the "configurational definition" (see, e.g., Makabe et al., J. Biol. Chem. 283:1156-1164, 2008), and IMGT [LeFRanc MP et al. (2003) IMGT unique numbering for multiple variable regions of immunoglobulins and T cell receptors and individual class V regions of the Ig superfamily, Dev. Comp. Immunol. 27:55-77].

[0164] As used herein, the "variable regions" and "CDRs" may refer to variable regions and CDRs defined by any method known in the art including a combination of methods.

[0165] According to a specific embodiment, the plurality of CDRs are determined according to Kabat et al. (supra).

[0166] Functional antibody fragments include all or substantially all of the variable regions of the light chain and the heavy chain and are defined as follows:

[0167] (1) Fv, defined as a genetically engineered fragment consisting of the variable region of the light chain (VL) and the variable region of the heavy chain (VH), expressed as a double chain;

[0168] (2) Single-chain variable region fragment Fv ("scFv"), a genetically engineered single-chain molecule comprising the variable region of the light chain and the variable region of the heavy chain, wherein the genetically engineered single-chain molecule is a genetically fused single-chain molecule via a suitable polypeptide linker.

[0169] (3) A disulfide-stabilized Fv ("dsFv"), a genetically engineered antibody comprising the variable region of the light chain and the variable region of the heavy chain, wherein the genetically engineered antibody is connected by a genetically engineered disulfide bond.

[0170] (4) Fab, a fragment of an antibody molecule comprising a monovalent antigen-binding portion of an antibody molecule; the fragment of the antibody molecule can be obtained by treating the whole antibody with the papain to produce the complete light chain and the Fd fragment of the heavy chain, wherein the Fd fragment of the heavy chain consists of the variable region and the CH1 region of the Fd fragment of the heavy chain;

[0171] (5) Fab', a fragment of an antibody molecule comprising the monovalent antigen-binding portion of an antibody molecule, which can be obtained by treating a whole antibody with pepsin followed by reduction (two Fab' fragments are obtained per antibody molecule);

[0172] (6) F(ab')2, a fragment of an antibody molecule comprising a monovalent antigen-binding portion of an antibody molecule, which can be obtained by treating a whole antibody with the enzyme pepsin (i.e., a dimer of multiple Fab' fragments held together by two disulfide bonds); and

[0173] (7) Multiple single-domain antibodies or nanobodies are composed of a single VH or VL region with sufficient affinity for the antigen.

[0174] Methods for producing polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies, and fragments thereof, are known in the art (see, e.g., Harlow and Lane, Antibodies: A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, New York, 1988, incorporated herein by reference).

[0175] Methods for producing polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies and fragments thereof are known in the art (see, e.g., Harlow and Lane, Antibodies: A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, New York, 1988, incorporated herein by reference).

[0176] According to some embodiments of the present invention, multiple antibody fragments can be prepared by proteolysis of the antibody or by expression of the fragment encoded by DNA in Escherichia coli or multiple mammalian cells (e.g., Chinese hamster ovary cell culture or other protein expression systems). Multiple antibody fragments can be obtained by cutting multiple whole antibodies by pepsin or papain by multiple conventional methods. For example, multiple antibody fragments can be produced by enzymatic cleavage of multiple antibodies by pepsin, with a 5S fragment provided being represented as F (ab'). The fragment can be further cleaved by a thiol reducing agent, and optionally a blocking group for multiple sulfhydryl groups produced by the cleavage of multiple disulfide bonds to produce multiple 3.5S Fab' monovalent fragments. Alternatively, an enzymatic cleavage using pepsin produces two monovalent Fab' fragments and Fc fragments. The multiple methods are described, for example, by Goldenberg, U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,036,945 and 4,331,647, and multiple references contained in the multiple patents, the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference. See also Porter, RR [Journal of Biochemistry 73: 119-126 (1959)]. Other methods of cleaving antibodies, such as separation of heavy chains to form monovalent light-heavy chain fragments, further cleavage of the fragments, or other enzymatic, chemical or genetic techniques may also be used, as long as the fragments bind to the antigen recognized by the intact antibody.

[0177] Multiple Fv fragments include a linking of multiple VH and VL chains. The linking can be non-covalent, as described by Inbar et al. [Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 69: 2659-62 (19720)]. Alternatively, the multiple variable chains can be linked by a disulfide bond between molecules or cross-linked by multiple chemicals such as glutaraldehyde. Preferably, the multiple Fv fragments include multiple VH and VL chains connected by a peptide linker. The multiple single-chain antigen binding proteins (sFv) are prepared by constructing a structural gene containing multiple DNA sequences encoding the multiple VH and VL regions connected by an oligonucleotide. The structural gene is inserted into an expression vector, which is then introduced into a host cell such as Escherichia coli. The multiple recombinant host cells synthesize a single polypeptide chain having a connector bridging the two V domains. A variety of methods for producing sFvs are described, for example, in [Whitlow and Filpula, Methods 2:97-105 (1991); Bird et al., Science 242:423-426 (1988); Pack et al., Bio / Science 11:1271-77 (1993); and U.S. Pat. No. 4,746,778, the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference.

[0178] Another form of an antibody fragment is a peptide that encodes a single complementarity determining region (CDR). Multiple CDR peptides ("multiple minimum recognition units") can be obtained by constructing multiple genes encoding the CDR of an antibody of interest. The multiple genes are prepared, for example, by synthesizing the variable regions from RNA of multiple antibody-producing cells using the polymerase chain reaction. See, for example, Larrick and FRy [Methods, 2: 106-10 (1991)].

[0179] Humanized forms of non-human (e.g., murine) antibodies are chimeric molecules of immunoglobulins, immunoglobulin chains, or fragments of immunoglobulin chains (e.g., Fv, Fab, Fab', F(ab') branch 2, or other antigen-binding subsequences), wherein the humanized forms contain minimal sequences derived from non-human immunoglobulins. Humanized antibodies comprise human immunoglobulins (recipient antibodies), wherein residues forming a complementary determining region (CDR) of the receptor within the human immunoglobulins are replaced with residues from a CDR of non-human species (donor antibodies), such as mouse, rat, or rabbit, wherein the residues of the non-human species have the desired specificity, affinity, and capacity. In some examples, the Fv framework residues of the human immunoglobulins are replaced with corresponding non-human residues. Humanized antibodies may also include residues or framework sequences that are not found in either the receptor antibody or the introduced CDR, and residues in the receptor antibody that are not found in the introduced CDR or framework sequence. In general, the humanized antibody may substantially comprise at least one of all, and typically two, multiple variable regions, wherein all or substantially all of the CDR regions correspond to the multiple CDR regions of a non-human immunoglobulin, and all or substantially all of the FR regions correspond to the multiple FR regions of a non-human immunoglobulin consensus sequence. The humanized antibody ideally also includes at least a portion of an immunoglobulin constant region (Fc), typically at least a portion of an immunoglobulin constant region (Fc) of a human immunoglobulin (Jones et al., Nature, 321: 522-525 (1986); Riechmann et al., Nature, 332: 323-329 (1988); and Presta, Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2: 593-596 (1992)].

[0180] Methods for humanizing non-human antibodies are known in the art. Typically, a humanized antibody has one or more amino acid residues introduced from a non-human source. The non-human amino acid residues are often referred to as introduced residues, which are typically taken from an introduced variable region. Humanization can be performed essentially according to the method of Winter et al. [Jones et al., Nature, 321:522-525 (1986); Riechmann et al., Nature, 332:323-329 (1988); Verhoeyen et al., Science, 239:1534-1652 (1988)] by replacing the corresponding sequences of a human antibody with rodent CDRs or CDR sequences. Thus, such humanized antibodies are chimeric antibodies (U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,567) in which substantially less than an intact human variable region has been replaced by the corresponding sequence from a non-human species. In practice, humanized antibodies are typically human antibodies in which some CDR residues and possibly some FR residues are substituted by residues from analogous sites in rodent antibodies.

[0181] Human antibodies can also be produced using various techniques known in the art, including phage display libraries [Hoogenboom and Winter, Journal of Mol. Biol., 227:381 (1991); Marks et al., Journal of Mol. Biol., 222:581 (1991)], and the techniques of Cole et al. and Boerner et al. can also be used for the preparation of human monoclonal antibodies [Cole et al., Monoclonal Antibodies and Cancer Therapy, Alan R. Liss, p. 77 (1985) and Boerner et al., Journal of Immunology, 147(1):86-95 (1991)]. Similarly, human antibodies can be prepared by introducing human immunoglobulin loci into transgenic animals, for example, mice in which the endogenous immunoglobulin genes have been partially or completely inactivated. Upon challenge, the production of human antibodies was observed that closely resembled those seen in humans in all aspects, including gene rearrangement, combination, and antibody repertoires. The method is described, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,545,807; 5,545,806; 5,569,825; 5,625,126; 5,633,425; 5,661,016, and in the following scientific publications: Marks et al., Journal of Bio / Technology: 779-783 (1992); Lonberg et al., Nature 368: 856-859 (1994); Morrison, Nature 368 812-13 (1994); Fishwild et al., Nature Biotechnology 14, 845-51 (1996); Neuberger, Nature Biotechnology 14: 826 (1996); and: Lonberg and Huszar, International Reviews of Immunology 13, 65-93 (1995).

[0182] In one embodiment, the antibody is a full-length antibody, and the multiple heavy chains and the multiple light chains of an antibody of the present invention can be full-length (e.g., an antibody can include at least one, and preferably two complete heavy chains and at least one or two complete light chains) or can include an antigen binding portion (a Fab, F(ab') branch 2, Fv or a single chain variable region fragment ("scFv"). In other embodiments, the heavy chain constant region of the antibody is selected from, for example, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgM, IgA1, IgA2, IgD and IgE. In some embodiments, the isotype of the immunoglobulin is selected from IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 and IgG4, more specifically, IgG1 (e.g., human IgG1) or IgG4 (e.g., human IgG4). The choice of the antibody type will depend on the function of the immune effect that the antibody is designed to elicit.

[0183] Also contemplated herein are multiple bispecific configurations of multiple antibodies. A bispecific monoclonal antibody (BsMAb, BsAb) is an artificial protein that is composed of fragments of two different monoclonal antibodies and thus binds to two different types of antigens. According to a specific embodiment, the BsMAb is designed to simultaneously bind to a cytotoxic cell (e.g., using a receptor similar to CD3) and a target such as a tumor cell to be destroyed (described further below).

[0184] As used herein, the phrase "chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)" refers to a recombinant or synthetic molecule that combines antibody-based specificity for a desired antigen with an activated intracellular region of a T cell receptor to produce a chimeric protein that exhibits cellular immune activity against the specific antigen.

[0185] As used herein, the phrase "T cell receptor" or "TCR" refers to soluble as well as insoluble forms of recombinant T cell receptors.

[0186] As used herein, the phrase "MHC (or HLA) restricted peptide" refers to a peptide potentially expressed on an MHC molecule. The peptide can be detected by "wet" laboratory procedures such as mass spectrometry or by computer simulation analysis. An MHC (or HLA) expressed peptide refers to a peptide that is confirmed to be expressed by an MHC molecule in vitro or in vivo.

[0187] According to a specific embodiment, the MHC-restricted peptide is from WT1 and the affinity binding entity comprises the multiple CDRs of B47B6.

[0188] According to a specific embodiment, the MHC-restricted peptide is from TyrD and the affinity binding entity comprises the CDRs of D7 or D11.

[0189] According to a specific embodiment, the MHC-restricted peptide is from WT1 and the affinity binding entity comprises the multiple CDRs of C106B9.

[0190] According to a specific embodiment, the MHC-restricted peptide is from MAGE-A9 and the affinity binding entity comprises the CDRs of F184C7.

[0191] According to a specific embodiment, the MHC-restricted peptide is from PAP and the affinity binding entity comprises the CDRs of D10A3.

[0192] The multiple CDRs of the above-mentioned multiple affinity binding entities are described in Figures 68-73 middle.

[0193] Multiple homology sequences are also contemplated, for example, at least 90% homology, 95% homology or even at least 99% homology, as long as the binding affinity and optionally specificity to the respective target is maintained or even improved.

[0194] Therefore, according to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided an isolated polynucleotide comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding the affinity binding entity described herein.

[0195] The present invention also provides an expression vector comprising a polynucleotide operably linked to a cis-acting regulatory element.

[0196] The nucleic acid constructs of some embodiments of the present invention (also referred to herein as an "expression vector") comprise additional sequences that render the vector suitable for replication and integration in prokaryotes, eukaryotes, or preferably both (e.g., shuttle vectors). In addition, typical cloning vectors may also comprise a transcriptional and translational initiation sequence, a transcriptional and translational terminator, and a polyadenylation signal. As an example, the constructs will typically comprise a 5'LTR, a tRNA binding site, a packaging signal, a source for second-strand DNA synthesis, and a 3'LTR or a portion of the 3'LTR.

[0197] The nucleic acid construct of some embodiments of the invention typically comprises a signal sequence for secreting or expressing the affinity binding entity from a host cell in which the antibody is located. Preferably, the signal sequence for this purpose is a mammalian signal sequence.

[0198] The eukaryotic promoter typically comprises two types of recognition sequences, the TATA box and multiple upstream promoters. The TATA box, located 25-30 base pairs upstream of the transcription start site, is believed to be involved in directing RNA polymerase to start RNA synthesis. The other upstream promoter components measure the rate after transcription initiation.

[0199] Preferably, the promoter used in the nucleic acid construct of some embodiments of the present invention is activated in the specific cell population transformed. Examples of multiple cell type-specific and / or tissue-specific promoters include promoter components, such as liver-specific albumin [Pinkert et al., (1987) Genes and Development 1: 268-277], multiple lymphoid-specific promoters [Calame et al., (1988) Advances in Immunology 43: 235-275]; in multiple specific promoters of multiple T cell receptors [Winoto et al., (1989) EMBO 8: 729-733] and multiple immunoglobulins; [Ba nerji et al. (1983) Cell 33:729-740], multiple neuron-specific promoters, such as the neurofilament promoter [Byrne et al., (1989) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 86:5473-5477], multiple pancreas-specific promoters [Edlunch et al., (1985) Science 230:912-916] or multiple mammary gland-specific promoters, such as the milk whey protein promoter (U.S. Pat. No. 4,973,316 and European Application Publication No. 264,166).

[0200] Multiple enhancer components can stimulate transcription to 1,000 times from multiple linked homologous or heterologous promoters. Multiple enhancers are activated when they are located downstream or upstream of the transcription start site. Many enhancer components derived from multiple viruses have a wide host range and are active in various tissues. For example, the SV40 early gene enhancer is suitable for many cell types. Other enhancer / promoter compositions suitable for some embodiments of the present invention include long terminal repeats derived from polyoma virus, human or murine cytomegalovirus (CMV), derived from various retroviruses, such as murine leukemia virus, murine or golden sarcoma virus and HIV. See, "Multiple Enhancers and Eukaryotic Expression", Cold Spring Harbor Press, Cold Spring Harbor, New York 1983, which is incorporated herein by reference.

[0201] In the construction of the expression vector, the promoter is preferably located at about the same distance from the heterologous transcription start site as the transcription start site in the natural setting of the promoter. However, as known in the art, some variation of the distance can be tolerated without loss of promoter function.

[0202] A polyadenylation sequence may also be added to the expression vector to increase the efficiency of TCRL mRNA transcription. Two distinct sequence components are required for accurate and efficient polyadenylation: multiple GU or U-rich sequences located downstream of the polyadenylation site and a highly conserved sequence of 6 nucleotides, AAUAAA, located 11-30 nucleotides upstream. Termination and polyadenylation signals suitable for use in some embodiments of the present invention include the multiple termination and polyadenylation signals derived from SV40.

[0203] In addition to the components already described, the expression vectors of some embodiments of the present invention may generally contain other specialized components to increase the expression level of multiple cloned nucleic acids or to facilitate the recognition of multiple cells carrying the recombinant DNA. For example, many animal viruses contain multiple DNA sequences that facilitate the extrachromosomal replication of the viral genome in multiple permissive cell types. As long as multiple appropriate factors are provided by the genes carried on the plasmid or the genome of the host cell, the plasmid carrying the multiple viral replicons can be replicated episomally.

[0204] The vector may or may not include a eukaryotic replicon. If a eukaryotic replicon is present, the vector is amplified in eukaryotic cells using the appropriate selectable marker. If the vector does not include a eukaryotic replicon, episomal amplification is not possible. Instead, the recombinant DNA is integrated into the genome of the designed cell, where the promoter directs expression of the desired nucleic acid.

[0205] Also provided are a plurality of cells comprising the plurality of polynucleotides / plurality of expression vectors described herein.

[0206] The cells are usually selected for high expression of recombinant proteins (e.g., bacteria, plants or eukaryotic cells, e.g., CHO, HEK-293 cells), but when, for example, the CDRs of the TCRL are implanted into a T cell receptor or CAR in the cells, they may also be host cells (e.g., T cells or NK cells) with a specific immune effector activity. As further described below.

[0207] The high specificity of the affinity binding entity renders it particularly suitable for a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

[0208] Thus, according to one aspect of the present invention, a method of detecting a cell expressing an HLA-restricted peptide antigen of interest is provided. The method comprises contacting the cell with the affinity binding entity (e.g., antibody) of the present invention having specificity for the HLA-restricted peptide antigen of interest. The contacting is performed under conditions that allow the formation of immune complexes, wherein the expression of the immune complexes or the level of the immune complexes indicates that the cell expresses the HLA-restricted peptide antigen of interest.

[0209] As used herein, the term "detecting" refers to "detecting," "perceiving," "uncovering," "exposing," "visualizing," or "identifying" the action of a cell. The precise detection method relies on the detectable moiety (also referred to herein as the recognizable moiety) to which the antibody is bound as further described herein.

[0210] According to the teachings of the present invention, multiple single cells can be used as multiple cells. For example, the multiple cells can come from any biological sample, such as a cell line, a primary (such as a tumor culture) and multiple cell samples, such as various surgical specimens, including incision or resection specimens, fine needle aspirates, etc. Multiple methods of biopsy are known in the art.

[0211] The above detection method can be used for the diagnosis of multiple diseases, and the diagnosis of the disease is determined by the normal expression or distribution of the HLA peptide complex in different tissues.

[0212] The term "diagnosing" as used herein refers to classifying a disease, determining a severity (grade or stage) of a disease, monitoring progression, predicting an outcome of the disease and / or prospects for recovery.

[0213] The subject may be a healthy subject (e.g., human) undergoing a routine health check-up. Alternatively, the subject may be at risk of the disease. Additionally, alternatively, the method may be used to monitor the efficacy of a treatment.

[0214] The TCRL may comprise, for example, conjugated to a recognizable moiety. Alternatively or additionally, the TCRL (or a complex comprising the same TCRL) may be recognized indirectly, for example by using a secondary antibody.

[0215] The contacting can be performed in vitro (ie, in a cell line, a plurality of primary cells), in vivo or ex vivo.

[0216] As described above, the methods of the present invention are sufficient to form an immune complex (e.g., a complex between the antibodies of the present invention and the peptide complexed with the MHC, generally when the cells are not lysed) under a plurality of conditions; the plurality of conditions (e.g., a plurality of suitable concentrations, a plurality of buffers, a plurality of temperatures, a plurality of reaction times) and methods for optimizing the plurality of conditions are known to those skilled in the art, and a plurality of examples are disclosed herein.

[0217] The plurality of affinity binding entities (eg, antibodies) of the present invention are particularly suitable for the treatment of such cancers.

[0218] The term "cancer" as used herein is defined as a disease characterized by the rapid and uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. Cancer cells can spread locally or through the bloodstream and lymphatic system to other parts of the body.

[0219] The cancer can be a hematological malignancy, a solid tumor, a primary or metastatic tumor. Examples of various cancers include, but are not limited to, breast cancer, prostate cancer, ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, skin cancer, pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, kidney cancer, liver cancer, brain cancer, lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), leukemia, lung cancer, etc. Additional non-limiting examples of cancers that can be treated by the methods of some embodiments of the present invention are provided in Table 1 above.

[0220] A plurality of cancers that can be treated include tumors that are not vascularized, or are not substantially vascularized, and a plurality of vascularized tumors. The cancer may include a plurality of non-solid tumors (e.g., a plurality of blood tumors, e.g., leukemias and lymphomas) or may include a plurality of solid tumors. The types of cancers treated by the plurality of antibodies of the present invention include, but are not limited to, cancers, embryonic tumors, and sarcomas, as well as some leukemias or lymphomas, benign and malignant tumors, and malignant tumors, such as sarcomas, cancers, and melanomas. A plurality of adult tumors / cancers and a plurality of pediatric tumors / cancers are also included.

Examples of hematological (or hematopoietic) cancers include leukemias, including acute leukemias (e.g., acute lymphocytic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia and myeloblastic leukemia, promyelocytic leukemia, myelomonocytic leukemia, monocytic leukemia and erythroleukemia), chronic leukemias, (e.g., chronic myeloid (granulocytic) leukemia, chronic myeloid leukemia and chronic lymphocytic leukemia), polycythemia vera, lymphomas, Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (indolent, high-grade forms), multiple myeloma, Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, heavy chain disease, myelodysplastic syndrome, hairy cell leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome.

[0222] Solid tumors are abnormal tissues that usually do not contain cysts or areas of fluid. Solid tumors can be benign or malignant. Different types of solid tumors are named for the type of cells that form them (e.g., sarcomas, cancers, and lymphomas). Examples of solid tumors, such as sarcomas and carcinomas, include fibrosarcomas, myxosarcoma, liposarcoma, chondrosarcoma, osteosarcoma, synovial sarcoma, mesothelioma, and sarcomas, Ewing's tumor, leiomyosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, colon cancer, lymphoid malignancies, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, sweat gland carcinoma, medullary thyroid carcinoma, papillary thyroid carcinoma, adrenal sebaceous gland carcinoma, papillary carcinoma, papillary adenocarcinoma, medullary carcinoma, bronchogenic carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, hepatocarcinoma, bile duct carcinoma, choriocarcinoma, Chloroepithelial carcinoma, Wilms' tumor, cervical cancer, testicular tumors, testicular seminoma, bladder cancer, melanoma, and central nervous system tumors (e.g., gliomas (e.g., brain stem gliomas and mixed gliomas), glioblastomas (also known as glioblastoma multiforme), astrocytomas, central nervous system (CNS) lymphomas, germ cell tumors, medulloblastomas, schwannomas, craniopharyngiomas, ependymomas, pineal tumors, hemangioblastomas, acoustic neuromas, oligodendrogliomas, neuroblastomas, meningiomas, retinoblastomas, and brain metastases).

[0224] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the drugs prepared by the methods of some embodiments of the present invention have an anti-tumor effect.

[0225] The term "anti-tumor effect" as used herein refers to a biological effect that can be manifested by a reduction in tumor volume, a reduction in the number of tumor cells, a reduction in the number of metastases, an increase in life span, or an improvement in various physiological symptoms associated with cancerous conditions. An "anti-tumor effect" can also be manifested by the ability of the drug of the present invention to prevent tumor occurrence in the first line.

[0226] According to specific embodiments, when said affinity binding entity is for tyrosinase (TyrD), said cancer is selected from said group consisting of melanoma and glioblastoma.

[0227] According to a specific embodiment, when the affinity binding entity is for WT1, the cancer is selected from:

[0234] Table 3

[0235] MAGE-A9 Renal cell carcinoma Bladder cancer Breast cancer Primary hepatocellular carcinoma.

[0236] According to a specific embodiment, when said affinity binding entity is for PAP, said cancer is prostate cancer.

[0237] The above categories are all related to diagnosis and treatment.

[0238] Determining the presence or level of the immune complex of the present invention depends on the detectable moiety to which the antibody is attached.

[0239] Examples of detectable moieties useful in the present invention include, but are not limited to, radioisotopes, phosphorescent chemicals, chemiluminescent chemicals, fluorescent chemicals, enzymes, fluorescent polypeptides, and epitope tags. The detectable moiety can be a component of a binding pair that can be recognized by the interaction of the component with an additional component of the binding pair and a label that can be directly observed. In one example, the component of the binding pair is an antigen recognized by a corresponding labeled antibody. In one example, the label is a fluorescent protein or an enzyme that produces a colorimetric reaction.

[0240] Other examples of detectable moieties include those detectable by positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), all of which are known to those skilled in the art.

[0241] When the detectable moiety is a polypeptide, the immunolabel (i.e., the antibody coupled to the detectable moiety) can be produced by a variety of recombinant means, or chemically synthesized, for example, by the stepwise addition of one or more amino acid residues in a defined order using a variety of solid phase peptide synthesis techniques. Examples of polypeptide detectable moieties that can be bound to the antibodies of the invention using recombinant DNA technology (wherein the polynucleotide encoding the TCRL is transcriptionally fused to the detectable moiety) include a variety of fluorescent polypeptides, a variety of phosphorescent polypeptides, a variety of enzymes and a variety of epitope tags.

[0242] Alternatively, a chemical linkage of a detectable moiety of the antibodies of the invention may be performed using any suitable chemical bond, directly or indirectly, such as through a peptide bond (when the detectable moiety is a polypeptide), or through a covalent bond of an intermediate linking component, such as a linker peptide or other chemical moiety, such as an organic polymer. The chimeric peptides may be linked by bonding at the carboxyl (C) or amino (N) termini of the peptides, or by bonding to internal chemical groups such as linear, branched or cyclic side chains, internal carbon or nitrogen atoms, etc. One of ordinary skill in the art can readily identify and prepare the modified peptides using known peptide synthesis methods and / or covalent bonding of peptides. A description of fluorescent labeling of antibodies is provided in detail in U.S. Patent Nos. 3,940,475, 4,289,747 and 4,376,110.

[0243] An exemplary method for coupling two peptide moieties is described below:

[0244] SPDP coupling:

[0245] Any SPDP coupling method known to those skilled in the art can be used. For example, in one exemplary embodiment, a modification of the method of Cumber et al. (1985, Methods in Enzymology 112: 207-224) is used as described below.

[0246] A peptide, such as an identifiable or therapeutic moiety, (1.7 mg / mL) is mixed with a 10-fold excess of SPDP (50 mM in ethanol), the antibody is mixed with a 25-fold excess of SPDP in 20 mM sodium phosphate, 0.10 M sodium hydroxide (NaCl) pH 7.2, and each reaction is left at room temperature for, e.g., 3 hours. The reaction is then dialyzed against PBS.

[0247] The peptide is reduced, for example, with 50 mM DTT for 1 hour at room temperature. The peptide is then purified by G-25 column (up to 5% sample / column volume) in potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KH 2 PO 4 ) at pH 6.5, the reduced peptide was combined with the SPDP-antibody at a molar ratio of 1:10 antibody:peptide, and allowed to stand at 4° C. overnight to form a peptide-antibody conjugate.

[0248] Glutaraldehyde coupling:

[0249] The conjugation of a peptide (e.g., a recognizable or therapeutic moiety) to an antibody can be achieved by a number of methods known to those skilled in the art using glutaraldehyde. For example, in one exemplary embodiment, the conjugation method described below by GT Hermanson (1996 "Antibody Modification and Conjugation, in Bioconjugation Technology, Academic Press, San Diego) is used.

[0250] The antibody and the peptide (1.1 mg / ml) were mixed with a 10-fold excess of 0.1M phosphate and 0.15M sodium chloride (pH 6.8) solution with 0.05% glutaraldehyde and allowed to react at room temperature for 2 hours. 0.01M lysine may be added to block multiple excess sites. After the reaction, the excess glutaraldehyde was removed using a G-25 column equilibrated with PBS (10% v sample / column volume).

[0251] Carbodiimide coupling:

[0252] The coupling of a peptide to an antibody can be achieved by a number of methods known to those skilled in the art using a dehydrating agent such as a carbodiimide. Most preferably, the carbodiimide is used in the presence of 4-dimethylaminopyridine. As known to those skilled in the art, carbodiimide coupling can be used to form a covalent bond between a carboxyl group of a peptide and a hydroxyl group of an antibody (resulting in the formation of an ester bond), or an amino group of an antibody (resulting in the formation of an amide bond) or a thiol group of an antibody (resulting in the formation of a thioester bond).

[0253] Likewise, carbodiimide coupling can be used to form similar covalent bonds between a carbon group of an antibody and a hydroxyl, amino or sulfhydryl group of the peptide. See, generally, J. March, Advanced Organic Chemistry: Mechanism and Structure of Reactions, pp. 349-50 & 372-74 (3d ed.), 1985. By way of illustration, and not limitation, the peptide is coupled to the antibody via a covalent bond using a carbodiimide, such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. See generally, the multiple coupling methods of B. Neises et al. (1978, Angewandte Chemie, Int. Engl. Ed., 17:522; A. Hassner et al. (1978, Tetrahedron Lett. 4475); EP Boden et al. (1986, J. Org. Chem. 50:2394) and LJ Mathias (1979, Synthesis 561). The level of the immune complex can be compared with a control sample from a non-diseased subject, wherein upregulation of immune complex formation is indicative of melanoma. Preferably, the subject is, for example, the same species as a human, preferably matched to the same age, weight, sex, etc. It should be understood that the control sample can also be from a healthy tissue of the same subject, before disease progression or after disease remission.

[0254] According to one embodiment, the detection is performed by FACS.

[0255] As described above, the affinity binding entities, eg, antibodies, of the invention may also be used in a variety of therapeutic applications, wherein the antibody comprises a therapeutic moiety.

[0256] The therapeutic moiety can be a component of the antibody, for example, in the case of a whole antibody, the Fc region or antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). ADCC is a cell-mediated immune defense mechanism in which a target cell whose membrane-surface antigens have been bound by specific antibodies is actively lysed by an effector cell of the immune system. This is one of the mechanisms by which antibodies act as part of the humoral immune response and can serve to limit and contain infection. Classical ADCC is mediated by natural killer (NK) cells, and macrophages, neutrophils, and eosinophils can also mediate ADCC. For example, eosinophils can kill some parasites known as helminths through IgE-mediated ADCC. Because ADCC relies on a prior antibody response, ADCC is part of the adaptive immune response.

[0257] Alternatively or additionally, the antibody may be a bispecific antibody wherein the therapeutic moiety is a T cell engager, such as an anti-CD3 antibody or an anti-CD16a, alternatively, the therapeutic moiety may be an anti-immune checkpoint molecule (anti-PD-1).

[0258] Alternatively or additionally, the antibody can be linked to a heterologous therapeutic moiety (eg, multiple conjugation methods as described above). The therapeutic moiety can be, for example, a cytotoxic moiety, a toxic moiety, a cytokine moiety, a drug.

[0259] The antibody may be in a soluble or insoluble form.

[0260] Insoluble forms may be those in which a molecule comprising the CDRs of the antibody is anchored to or displayed on a cell or a particle (the latter being useful for therapeutic as well as diagnostic applications).

[0261] Examples of the plurality of cells include a plurality of immune cells, a plurality of T cells, a plurality of B cells, a plurality of dendritic cells, cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK), natural killer T cells (NKT), natural killer cells (NK) (autologous, allogeneic, xenogeneic).

[0262] According to a specific embodiment, the antibody (or indeed the CDRs of the antibody) forms a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) (as described above) or an artificial T cell receptor. Thus, a polynucleotide encoding such a molecule is introduced into a cell of interest.

[0263] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the cell is a T cell, a natural killer cell, a cell that exerts an effector killing function on a target cell, a cell that exerts an inhibitory function on an effector T cell, a designed cell with an effector killing function, or a designed cell with an inhibitory function.

[0264] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the cell is a T cell, or an αβT cell or a γδT cell.

[0265] According to some embodiments of the invention, the cell is a natural killer (NK) cell.

[0266] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the natural killer cells are used to target cancer

[0267] According to some embodiments of the invention, the T cell is a cytotoxic T cell (effector T cell).

[0268] According to some embodiments of the invention, cytotoxic T cells (effector T cells) are used to treat multiple cancer antigens.

[0269] According to some embodiments of the invention, the cytotoxic T cells are used to treat a pathology caused by or associated with a cancer.

[0270] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the T cells include Treg cells).

[0271] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the T cells include CD3 T cells

[0272] According to some embodiments of the invention, the T cells include CD4 T cells.

[0273] According to some embodiments of the invention, the T cells include CD8 T cells.

[0274] According to some embodiments of the invention, the antigen binding domain comprises a single chain variable region fragment (scFv) molecule.

[0275] The cytoplasmic region (also referred to as "intracellular signaling region") of the CAR molecule of the present invention is responsible for at least one of the multiple normal effector functions in the immune cell, wherein the CAR has been placed in the immune cell.

[0276] The term "effector function" refers to a specific function of a cell. The effector function of a T cell, for example, can be a cytolytic activity or a helper activity comprising the secretion of the plurality of cytokines. Thus, the term "intracellular signaling region" refers to the portion of a protein, wherein the portion converts the actuator function signal and directs the cell to perform a dedicated function. Although the entire intracellular signaling region can generally be used, in many cases it is not necessary to use the entire chain. To the extent that a truncated portion of the intracellular signaling region is used, the truncated portion can be used to replace the complete chain as long as the truncated portion transduces the effector function signal. Thus, the term intracellular signaling region refers to any truncated portion of an intracellular signaling domain that is sufficient to transduce an effector function signal.

[0277] Multiple examples of multiple intracellular signaling regions used in the CAR molecules of the present invention include the multiple cytoplasmic sequences of the T cell receptor (TCR) and multiple co-receptors that synergistically trigger signal transduction after antigen-receptor engagement, as well as any derivatives or variants of the multiple sequences, and any synthetic sequences with the same functional capabilities.

[0278] It is known that the signals generated by the TCR alone are not sufficient to fully activate the T cell and that a secondary or co-stimulatory signal is also required. Thus, T cell activation can be mediated by two different classes of cytoplasmic signaling sequences: those that provide an antigen-dependent primary activation method triggered by the TCR (primary cytoplasmic signaling sequences) and those that provide a secondary or co-stimulatory signal in an antigen-independent manner (secondary cytoplasmic signaling sequences).

[0279] Primary cytoplasmic signaling sequences regulate the primary activation of the TCR complex in a stimulatory manner or in an inhibitory manner. Primary cytoplasmic signaling sequences that act in a stimulatory manner may comprise signaling motifs known as immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs).

[0280] Examples of ITAMs with multiple major cytoplasmic signal sequences used in the present invention include those derived from TCR zeta, FcR gamma, CD3 gamma, CD3 delta, CD3 epsilon, CD5, CD22, CD79a, CD79b and CD66d. It is particularly preferred that the cytoplasmic signal molecule in the CAR of the present invention includes a cytoplasmic signal sequence derived from CD3 zeta.

[0281] In a preferred embodiment, the cytoplasmic region of the CAR can be designed to include the CD3-zeta signal region itself or in combination with any other desired (multiple) cytoplasmic regions in the context of the CAR applicable to the present invention. For example, the cytoplasmic region of the CAR may include a CD3 zeta chain portion and a costimulatory signal region. The costimulatory signal region refers to a portion of the CAR that includes the intracellular region of a costimulatory molecule. A costimulatory molecule is a cell surface molecule other than a ligand of an antigen receptor required for an effective response of an antigen receptor or multiple lymphocytes to an antigen. Multiple examples of the multiple molecules include CD27, CD28, 4-1BB (CD137), OX40, CD30, CD40, PD-1, ICOS, lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1), CD2, CD7, LIGHT, NKG2C, B7-H3, and a ligand specifically bound to CD83, etc. Therefore, although the present invention mainly uses 4-1BB as the costimulatory signal component, other costimulatory components are within the scope of the present invention.

[0282] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the intracellular region includes a co-stimulatory signal region and a zeta chain portion. The co-stimulatory signal region refers to the intracellular region in which a portion of the CAR molecule includes a co-stimulatory molecule. Multiple co-stimulatory molecules are multiple cell surface molecules other than ligands of multiple antigen receptors required for an effective response of multiple antigen receptors or multiple lymphocytes to antigens.

[0283] As used herein, a "costimulatory ligand" includes a molecule on an antigen presenting cell [e.g., an aAPC (artificial antigen presenting cell), a dendritic cell, a B cell, etc.] that specifically binds to a cognate co-stimulatory molecule on a T cell, thereby providing a signal that mediates a T cell response, including but not limited to, proliferation, activation, differentiation, etc., in addition to the primary signal provided by, for example, the binding of a TCR / CD3 complex to an MHC molecule to which a peptide is added. A co-stimulatory ligand may include, but is not limited to, CD7, B7-1 (CD80), B7-2 (CD86), PD-L1, PD-L2, 4-1BBL, OX40L, inducible co-stimulatory ligand (ICOS-L), intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM-1), CD 30L, CD40, CD70, CD83, HLA-G, MICA, MICB, HVEM, lymphotoxin beta receptor, 3 / TR6, ILT3, ILT4, HVEM, an agonist or antibody that binds to a receptor of Toll ligand, and a ligand that specifically binds to B7-H3. A co-stimulatory ligand also includes, in particular, an antibody that specifically binds to a co-stimulatory molecule expressed on a T cell, such as but not limited to CD27, CD28, 4-1BB, OX40, CD30, CD40, PD-1, ICOS, lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1), CD2, CD7, light, NKG2C, B7-H3 and a ligand that specifically binds to CD83.

[0284] A "costimulatory molecule" refers to the cognate binding partner on a T cell that specifically binds to a costimulatory ligand, thereby mediating a costimulatory response of the T cell, such as, but not limited to, proliferation. Multiple costimulatory molecules include, but are not limited to, a class I MHC molecule, BTLA, and a Toll ligand receptor.

[0285] As used herein, a "co-stimulatory signal" refers to a signal that, in combination with a primary signal, such as TCR / CD3 ligation, results in T cell proliferation and / or up-regulation or down-regulation of multiple key molecules.

[0286] The term "stimulation" refers to a primary response, triggered by a stimulatory molecule (e.g., a TCR / CD3 complex) binding to its cognate ligand, which is mediated by a signal transduction event, such as, but not limited to, signal transduction through the TCR / CD3 complex. Stimulation can mediate the altered expression of some molecules, such as downregulation of TGF-β, and / or the reorganization of multiple cytoskeletal structures, etc.

[0287] A "stimulatory molecule," as the term is used herein, refers to a molecule on a T cell that specifically binds to a cognate stimulatory ligand displayed on an antigen presenting cell.

[0288] A "stimulatory molecule", as the term is used herein, refers to a ligand that, when presented on an antigen presenting cell (e.g., aAPC, a dendritic cell, a B cell, etc.), can specifically bind to a cognate binding partner on a T cell (referred to herein as a "stimulatory molecule"), through which the T cell mediates a primary response, including but not limited to, activation, initiation of an immune response, proliferation, etc. A variety of stimulatory ligands are known in the art, and include, among others, a class I MHC molecule coupled to a peptide, an anti-CD3 antibody, a superagonist anti-CD28 antibody, and a superagonist anti-CD2 antibody.

[0289] Regarding the cytoplasmic region, the CAR molecule of some embodiments of the present invention can be designed to include the signal region of the CD28 and / or 4-1BB itself or to be combined with any other desired (multiple) cytoplasmic regions in the context of the CAR applicable to the present invention. It is useful in the environment of the CAR molecule of some embodiments of the present invention. In one embodiment, the cytoplasmic domain of the CAR can be designed to further include the signal region of CD3-zeta. For example, the cytoplasmic region of the CAR can include but is not limited to multiple signal modules and multiple combinations of CD3-zeta, 4-1BB and CD28.

[0290] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the intracellular region includes at least one, for example, at least two, at least three, at least four, at least five, for example, at least six of the multiple polypeptides selected from the group consisting of CD3ζ (CD247, CD3z), CD28, 41BB, ICOS, OX40 and CD137.

[0291] According to some embodiments of the invention, the intracellular region includes the CD3ζ-chain [CD247 molecule, also known as "CD3-zeta" and "CD3z"; Genbank Accession Nos. NP_000725.1 and NP_93170.1], which is the main transmitter of signals from multiple endogenous TCRs.

[0292] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the intracellular region includes various co-stimulatory protein receptors in the cytoplasmic tail of the CAR to provide additional multiple signals to the T cells (second-generation CAR) examples include but are not limited to CD28 [e.g., Genbank accession numbers NP_001230006.1, NP_001230007.1, NP_006130.1], 4-1BB [tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 9 (TNFRSF 9), also known as "CD137", e.g., Genbank accession number NP_001552.2], and ICOS [inducible T cell co-stimulator, e.g., Genbank accession number NP_036224.1]. Multiple preclinical studies have shown that the second-generation CAR design improves the anti-tumor activity of multiple T cells.

[0293] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the intracellular region includes multiple signal regions, such as CD3z-CD28-41BB or CD3z-CD28-OX40, to further enhance efficacy. The term "OX40" refers to tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 4 (TNFRSF4), such as Genbank accession number NP_003318.1 (multiple "third generation" CARs).

[0294] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the intracellular region includes CD28-CD3z, CD3z, CD28-CD137-CD3z. The term "CD137" refers to tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 9 (TNFRSF9), such as Genbank accession number NP_001552.2.

[0295] According to some embodiments of the present invention, when the CAR molecule is designed for a natural killer cell, the signal region may be CD28 and / or CD3ζ.

[0296] The transmembrane region may be obtained from a natural or synthetic source. In the case where the source is natural, the region may be derived from any membrane-bound or transmembrane protein. The multiple transmembrane regions of specific use in the present invention may be derived from the alpha, beta or zeta chains, CD28, CD3 epsilon, CD45, CD4, CD5, CD8, CD9, CD16, CD22, CD33, CD37, CD64, CD80, CD86, CD134, CD137, CD154 of the T cell receptor (i.e., at least including the (multiple) transmembrane regions). Alternatively, the transmembrane region may be synthetic, in which case the transmembrane region mainly includes hydrophobic residues such as leucine and valine. Preferably, a triplet of phenylalanine, tryptophan and valine can be found at each end of a synthetic transmembrane region. Alternatively, a short oligo- or polypeptide connector, preferably between 2 and 10 amino acids in length, can form the connection between the transmembrane region and the cytoplasmic signal region of the CAR. A glycine-serine doublet provides a particularly suitable linker.

[0297] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the transmembrane region included in the CAR molecule of some embodiments of the present invention is a transmembrane region naturally associated with one of the multiple regions of the CAR. According to some embodiments of the present invention, the transmembrane region can be screened or modified by amino acid substitution to avoid the multiple regions from binding to the multiple transmembrane regions of the same or different surface membrane proteins to minimize multiple interactions with other members of the receptor complex.

[0298] According to some embodiments, between the extracellular region and the transmembrane region of the CAR molecule, or between the cytoplasmic region and the transmembrane region of the CAR molecule, a spacer region may be included. As used herein, the term "spacer region" generally refers to any oligo- or polypeptide, which links the transmembrane region to the extracellular region or the cytoplasmic region in the polypeptide chain. A spacer region may include up to 300 amino acids, preferably 10 to 100 amino acids, and most preferably 25 to 50 amino acids.

[0299] According to an aspect of some embodiments of the present invention, the present invention provides a method of treating cancer in a subject in need thereof, comprising administering to said subject said affinity binding entity, thereby treating said cancer in said subject.

[0300] Also provided is a use of said affinity binding entity, as defined herein, in the preparation of a medicament for treating a pathology, such as cancer.

[0301] The selection of the TCRL will naturally depend on the performance of the TCRL in pathologies. A number of exemplary TCRLs and the association of the TCRL with a number of pathologies are provided in the table above.

[0302] The term "treat" refers to inhibiting, preventing or arresting the development of a pathology (disease, disorder or condition) and / or causing the reduction, alleviation or return of a pathology. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various methods and tests can be used to obtain the development of a pathology, and similarly, various methods and assays can be used to obtain the reduction, alleviation or return of a pathology.

[0303] As used herein, the term "subject" includes a variety of mammals, preferably humans at any age suffering from the pathology.

[0304] The antibodies of some embodiments of the present invention may be administered to an organism per se, or in a pharmaceutical composition mixed with suitable carriers or excipients.

[0305] As used herein, a "pharmaceutical composition" refers to a preparation of one or more of the active ingredients described herein with other chemical components such as physiologically suitable carriers and excipients. The purpose of a pharmaceutical composition is to facilitate administration of a compound to an organism.

[0306] The term "active ingredient" herein refers to the antibody responsible for the biological effect.

[0307] Hereinafter, the phrases "physiologically acceptable carrier" and "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" are used interchangeably to indicate a carrier or a diluent that does not cause significant irritation to an organism and does not interfere with the biological activity and properties of the administered compound. An adjuvant is included under these phrases.

[0308] The term "excipient" herein refers to an inert substance added to a pharmaceutical composition to further facilitate the administration of the active ingredient. Examples of excipients include, but are not limited to, calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, various sugars and starch types, various cellulose derivatives, gelatin, vegetable oils, and various polyethylene glycols.

[0309] Techniques for the preparation and administration of various drugs may be found in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., latest edition, which is incorporated herein by reference.

[0310] A variety of suitable routes of administration may, for example, include oral, rectal, mucosal, especially nasal, enteral or parenteral administration, including intramuscular, subcutaneous and intramedullary injections as well as intrathecal injections, directly into the cardiac cavity, intracardiac, for example, into the right or left ventricular cavity, into the common coronary artery, intravenous, intraperitoneal, intranasal or intraocular injections.

[0311] A variety of conventional approaches are used to deliver drugs to the central nervous system (CNS) including: neurosurgical strategies (e.g., intracerebral injection or intraventricular infusion); molecular manipulation of the agent (e.g., preparation of a chimeric fusion protein comprising a transport peptide having an affinity for an endothelial cell surface molecule to bind an agent that cannot itself cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB)) in an attempt to exploit one of the BBB's endogenous transport pathways; pharmacological strategies designed to increase the lipid solubility of an agent (e.g., coupling water-soluble agents to lipid or cholesterol carriers); and temporary disruption of the integrity of the BBB by hyperosmotic disruption (by injection of a mannitol solution into the carotid artery or the use of a bioactive agent such as angiotensin). However, each of the strategies has limitations, such as the inherent risks associated with an invasive surgical procedure, a size limitation imposed by limitations inherent in the endogenous delivery system, potential undesirable biological side effects associated with systemic administration of a chimeric molecule comprising a carrier motif that may be activated outside the CNS, and the potential risk of brain damage in areas where the BBB of the brain is disrupted, making this approach a less preferred method of delivery.

[0312] Alternatively, the pharmaceutical composition may be administered in a local rather than systemic manner, for example, by injecting the pharmaceutical composition directly into a tissue area of ​​a patient.

[0313] The term "tissue" refers to a part of an organism designed to perform a function or functions. Examples include, but are not limited to, brain tissue, retina, skin tissue, liver tissue, pancreatic tissue, bone, cartilage, connective tissue, blood tissue, muscle tissue, heart tissue, brain tissue, vascular tissue, kidney tissue, lung tissue, gonadal tissue, hematopoietic tissue.

[0314] The pharmaceutical compositions of some embodiments of the present invention can be prepared by methods known in the art, for example, by conventional mixing, dissolving, granulating, sugar-coating, spraying, emulsifying, encapsulating, entrapping or lyophilizing processes.

[0315] Therefore, the multiple pharmaceutical compositions used according to some embodiments of the present invention can be formulated in a conventional manner using one or more physiologically acceptable carriers, wherein the carriers contain multiple excipients and multiple auxiliaries, and the multiple excipients and multiple auxiliaries facilitate the process of preparing the active ingredients for pharmaceutical use, and the appropriate formulation depends on the selected route of administration.

[0316] For injection, the active ingredients of the pharmaceutical composition can be formulated into aqueous solutions, preferably in physiologically compatible buffers, such as Hank's solution, Ringer's solution or physiological saline buffer. For mucosal administration, penetrants appropriate to the barrier to be permeated are used in the formulation. Such penetrants are known in the art.

[0317] For oral administration, the pharmaceutical composition can be easily formulated by combining the multiple active compounds with multiple pharmaceutically acceptable carriers known in the art. The multiple carriers allow the pharmaceutical composition to be formulated into tablets, pills, lozenges, capsules, liquids, gels, syrups, slurries, suspensions, etc. for oral ingestion by a patient. Multiple pharmaceutical preparations for oral administration can be prepared using a solid excipient, optionally grinding the resulting mixture, and if necessary, processing into multiple tablets or multiple sugar-coated cores after adding multiple suitable excipients. Multiple suitable excipients, in particular, fillers such as multiple sugars, including lactose, sucrose, mannitol or sorbitol; cellulose preparations such as corn starch, rice starch, potato starch, gelatin, tragacanth gum, methylcellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, sodium methylcellulose, and / or multiple physiologically acceptable polymers such as polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP). If necessary, multiple disintegrants such as cross-linked polyvinyl pyrrolidone, agar or alginic acid or salts of the alginic acid such as sodium alginate can be added.

[0318] A plurality of sugar coating cores have a plurality of suitable coatings.For this purpose, a plurality of concentrated sugar solutions can be used, and the plurality of concentrated sugar solutions can optionally contain gum arabic, talcum (talc), polyvinyl pyrrolidone, carbopol gel, polyethylene glycol, titanium dioxide, lacquer solution and suitable organic solvent or a plurality of solvent mixtures.A plurality of dyes or a plurality of pigments can be added into the plurality of tablets or the sugar coating, for identifying or characterizing the different combinations of a plurality of active compound dosages.

[0319] Pharmaceutical compositions for oral administration include push-in capsules made of gelatin and soft, sealed capsules made of gelatin and a plasticizer, such as glycerol or sorbitol. The push-in capsules may contain the active ingredient mixed with a filler such as lactose, a binder such as starch, a lubricant such as talc or magnesium stearate and, optionally, a stabilizer. In the soft capsules, the active ingredients may be dissolved or suspended in a suitable liquid, such as a fatty oil, liquid paraffin or a variety of liquid polyethylene glycols. In addition, stabilizers may be added. All formulations for oral administration should have a dosage suitable for the selected route of administration.

[0320] For oral administration, the composition may take the form of tablets or lozenges formulated in conventional manner.

[0321] For inhalation through the nose, the multiple active ingredients used according to some embodiments of the present invention are conveniently delivered in the form of an aerosol spray from a pressurized package, or using a suitable propellant such as dichlorodifluoromethane, trichlorofluoromethane, dichlorotetrafluoroethane or carbon dioxide. In the case of a pressurized aerosol, the dosage unit can be measured by providing a valve for delivering a metered amount. For example, gelatin can be formulated into a powder mixture containing the compound and a suitable powder base such as lactose or starch for capsules and boxes for a dispenser.

[0322] The pharmaceutical compositions described herein can be formulated for parenteral administration, for example, by intravenous injection or continuous infusion. Multiple formulations for injection can be presented in unit dosage form, for example in ampoules or multiple multi-dose containers, with, optionally, an added preservative. The multiple compositions can be suspensions, solutions or emulsions in oily or aqueous vehicles, and can contain multiple formulating agents, such as suspending agents, stabilizers and / or dispersants.

[0323] A plurality of pharmaceutical compositions for parenteral administration include a plurality of aqueous solutions of the active agent in a water-soluble form. Additionally, the suspension of the plurality of active ingredients can be prepared as a suitable oily or water-based injection suspension. A variety of suitable lipophilic solvents or a variety of carriers include a variety of mineral oils such as sesame oil, or a plurality of synthetic fatty acid esters such as ethyl oleate, a variety of triglycerides or a variety of liposomes. Aqueous injection suspensions can contain a variety of substances that increase the viscosity of the suspension, such as sodium carboxymethylcellulose, sorbitol or dextran. Optionally, the suspension can also contain a plurality of suitable stabilizers or agents that increase the solubility of the plurality of active ingredients to allow the preparation of the plurality of highly concentrated solutions.

[0324] Alternatively, the active ingredient may be in powder form for constitution with a suitable vehicle, eg, a sterile, pyrogen-free, water-based solution, before use.

[0325] The pharmaceutical compositions of some embodiments of the invention may also be formulated in rectal compositions such as suppositories or retention enemas, for example, with conventional suppository bases such as cocoa butter or other glycerides.

[0326] Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for use in the context of some embodiments of the present invention comprise a plurality of ingredients, wherein the plurality of active ingredients are included in an amount effective to achieve the intended purpose. More specifically, a therapeutically effective amount refers to an amount of the plurality of active ingredients (TCRL antibodies) that is effective to prevent, alleviate or ameliorate the symptoms of a disease (e.g., cancer) or prolong the survival of the subject being treated.

[0327] Determination of a therapeutically effective amount is well within the capability of those skilled in the art, especially in light of the detailed disclosure provided herein.

[0328] For any formulation used in the methods of the invention, the therapeutically effective amount or dose can be initially estimated from a variety of in vitro and cell culture assays. For example, a dose can be formulated in a variety of animal models to obtain a desired concentration or titer. Such information can be used to more accurately determine useful doses in humans.

[0329] The toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of the multiple active ingredients described herein can be determined by multiple standard pharmaceutical processes in vitro, in multiple cell cultures or multiple experimental animals. The data obtained from the multiple in vitro and cell culture tests and animal studies can be used to formulate a range of dosages for humans. The dosage can vary depending on the dosage form used and the route of administration used. The exact formulation, route of administration and dosage can be selected by the individual physician based on the patient's condition. (See, e.g., Fingl et al., 1975, in "Pharmacological Basis of Drugs", Chapter 1, page 1).

[0330] The number and interval of doses can be adjusted individually to provide levels of TCRL (the TCRL tissue) in the active ingredient sufficient to induce or inhibit the biological effect (minimum effective concentration, MEC). The MEC used in each formulation will be different, but can be estimated from in vitro data. The dose required to achieve the MEC will depend on individual characteristics and route of administration. Multiple detection assays can be used to determine multiple plasma concentrations.

[0331] Depending on the severity and responsiveness of the condition to be treated, administration may be a single or multiple administrations, continuing for a duration ranging from several days to several weeks, or until a cure or therapeutic disease state is achieved.

[0332] Of course, the amount of a composition administered will depend on the subject being treated, the severity of the affliction, the manner of administration, the judgment of the prescribing physician, and the like.

[0333] If desired, multiple compositions of some embodiments of the present invention may also be provided in a package or a dispenser device, such as an FDA-approved kit (diagnostic or therapeutic), which may contain one or more unit dosage forms containing the active ingredients. The package may, for example, include metal or plastic foil, such as a blister pack. The package or dispenser device may be accompanied by multiple instructions for administration. The package or dispenser may also be accompanied by a notice associated with the container, which is in the form of a drug regulated by a government agency for manufacture, use or sale, and the notice reflects the approval of the multiple ingredients or the form by human or veterinary regulatory agencies. For example, the notice may be an approved product insert for multiple prescription drugs or multiple prescription drugs approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Multiple compositions including a formulation of the present invention formulated in a compatible pharmaceutical carrier may also be prepared, placed in an appropriate container, and labeled for treatment of an indicated condition, as described in further detail above.

[0350] Multiple commonly used materials and methods

[0351] Preparation of biotinylated single-chain MHC-peptide complexes

[0352] Multiple single-chain MHC (scMHC) 3 The scMHC-peptide complex was generated by in vitro refolding from multiple inclusion bodies in Escherichia coli under the induction of isopropyl β-D-thiogalactoside (IPTG). 2The extracellular regions of the microglobulin and the HLA-A2 gene are linked to each other via a flexible linker, and the scMHC is designed to contain a BirA recognition sequence for site-specific biotinylation at the C-terminus (scMHC-BirA). In vitro refolding is performed in the presence of a peptide as described. Correctly folded MHC-peptide complexes are separated and purified by anion exchange Q-Sepharose chromatography (GE Healthcare Life Sciences) and then site-specifically biotinylated using the BirA enzyme (affinity) for the production of single-chain MHC-peptide complexes. A more detailed description is provided in Denkberg et al. (2002) PNAS, 99: 9421-9426.

[0353] Flow cytometry

[0354] Multiple TB hybridized T2 cells were washed with serum-free RPMI 1640 medium and then washed with 10 -4 Up to 10 -5 Molar concentration of tyrosinase 369-377 YMDGTMSQV (SEQ ID NO: 1) / WT1 126-134 (RMFPNAPYL, SEQ ID NO: 141) peptide / MAGE-A4 230-239 SEQ ID NO: 176 / MAGE-A9 223-231 203 / PAP 112-120 The culture medium containing the peptide of SEQ ID NO: 230 or related control peptides (listed in Table 15 below) was incubated overnight. The ratio between the MFI of HLA-A2-binding antibody BB7.2 on T2 cells loaded with peptides and the MFI of unloaded T2 cells (>1) was used to verify the peptide loading efficiency, data not shown.

[0355] Multiple T2 or primary cells or cell lines (10 6 ) were incubated with 10 μg / mL of specific antibody (Ab) (with or without biotinylation) at 4°C for 1 hour, followed by incubation with PE-labeled anti-mouse / human / streptavidin Ab at 4°C for 45 minutes. It should be understood that anti-mouse secondary antibodies or streptavidin work to obtain similar results as D11 and B47B6. Finally, the cells were washed and analyzed:

[0363] HHD mice were immunized by 5-6 injections of 50 μg / mouse of HLA-A2-peptide complexes. The first 2-3 injections were administered subcutaneously with QuilA adjuvant. Hybridoma clones were generated by fusion of spleen cells isolated from mice immunized with the complexes with NSO myeloma cells (as described above Weidanz et al. 2011, Int. Rev. Immunol. 30:328-340) and screened and isolated by differential ELISA assays as described below. For example, for screening of tyrosinase TCRL, the relevant TyrD369-377 peptide HLA-A2 complexes were used and compared with the irrelevant p68-DDX5 control peptide (SEQ ID NO: 2YLLPAIVHI) HLA-A2 complexes. ELISA with purified HLA-A2-Tyr complexes and control HLA-A2 complexes showing other HLA-A2-restricted peptides (Table 15) was used to screen for specific clones, and isolated hybridoma clones were subcloned and sequenced. Two clones, 906-11-D11 (referred to as D11, Fig.68 ) and 905-2-D7 (referred to as D7, Fig.69 ) is described.

[0364] Hybridomas were grown in HAT DMEM or serum-free DCCM2 medium until confluence>80% and supernatants were collected. Purified IgG was isolated from the culture supernatant by affinity chromatography using a protein A column. SDS-PAGE analysis of the purified protein showed homogeneous, pure IgG with an expected molecular weight of about 150 kilodaltons.

[0365] Construction of the entire IgG Ab

[0366] The H and L Fab genes (only for MC1) were cloned for expression as human IgG1κAb into the eukaryotic expression vectors pOptiVEC and pcDNA3.3-TOPO, respectively. Each shuttle expression vector carried a different gene selection (DHFR / HT- for pOptiVEC and Geneticin for pcDNA3.3). Expression was promoted by co-transfection of the two constructs into the dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR)-deficient Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) derived from DG44 cells in suspension culture using the FreeStyle MAX reagent (Invitrogen). After co-transfection, cells were cultured in selective medium. Clones that reacted specifically to JY T2 cells with the tyrosinase 369-377 peptide were adjusted to grow in 0.5% serum and further purified using protein A affinity chromatography. SDS-PAGE analysis of the purified protein showed homogeneous, pure IgG with an expected molecular weight of ~150 kilodaltons.

[0367] ELISA with supernatant or purified multiple Abs

[0368] The binding specificity of each supernatant or purified TCRL antibodies was determined by ELISA using biotinylated scMHC-peptide complexes. Maxi sorp 96-well ELISA plates (Nunc #442404) were coated with BSA-biotin (1 μg / well) overnight. After being washed, the plates were primed with streptavidin (1 μg / well) (1 hour, room temperature), washed extensively, and primed with 0.25 μg of MHC / peptide complex (1 hour, room temperature). The plates were blocked with PBS / 2% skim milk for 30 minutes at room temperature, followed by 1 mg / well of supernatant or purified TCRL antibodies for 1 hour at room temperature. After washing, the plates were primed with HRP-conjugated / anti-human or mouse Ab. The multiple HLA-A2-restricted peptides were used for multiple specificity tests of the purified supernatant or purified multiple TCRL antibodies using TMB tetramethylbenzidine reagent (DAKO, S1599) for detection.

[0369] Proteon XPR36 Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) Binding Analysis

[0370] Immobilization of IgG class TCR antibodies was performed on a Generic Layer Medium (GLM) chip (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA) in a vertical orientation at 25°C with a continuous running buffer of PBST (10 mM sodium phosphate, 150 mM sodium chloride, 0.005% Tween 20, pH 7.4). Five channels were activated with 50 μl of a mixture of 0.04 M N-ethyl-N'-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC) and 0.01 M N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide (Sulfo-NHS) at a flow rate of 30 μl / min, the anti-mouse or human IgG / NeutrAvidin was diluted in 10 mM sodium acetate buffer pH 4.5 to a final concentration of 25 μg / ml, and 150 μl was injected followed by an injection of 150 μl of 1 M ethanolamine hydrochloride pH 8.5. The IgG TCRL antibody / purified single-chain recombinant HLA-A2 / tyrosinase / WT1 / MAGE-A4 / MAGE-A9 / PAP complex ligand was diluted to 5-10 μg / ml in PBST, and 90 μl was injected vertically at a flow rate of 30 μl / min. The sixth channel remained empty as a reference. The analyte purified single-chain recombinant HLA-A2 / tyrosinase / WT1 / MAGE-A4 / MAGE-A9 / PAP complex / Fab TCRL antibody was injected (75 μl at 50 μl / min) in the horizontal direction of the ProteOn using five different concentrations (1000, 500, 250, 125 and 625 nanomolar concentrations), and running buffer was injected simultaneously in the sixth channel for double reference to correct for the loss of the multiple captured antibodies from the chip sensor surface during the experiment. All binding sensorgrams were collected, processed and analyzed using the integrated ProteOn Manager (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, USA) software. Multiple binding curves were fit using the Langmuir model describing 1:1 binding stoichiometry, or using the Langmuir and mass-shift limited models.

[0371] Multiple functional analyses

[0372] LDH-release test

[0373] In a non-radioactive cytotoxicity assay using (Promega) assay for bispecific TCRL retargeting of target cell killing, the test quantitatively measures lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), an enzyme released upon cell lysis. Released LDH is measured in culture supernatants in a 10-minute coupled enzymatic assay, resulting in the conversion of a tetrazolium salt (INT) into a red formazan product. The amount of color produced is proportional to the number of lysed cells.

[0374] Specifically, multiple target cells and multiple effector cells were washed, counted and resuspended in phenol red-free cRPMI medium (1% FBS). Multiple target cells were adjusted to a cell density of 2.5×10 per ml. 5 cells, and the plurality of reaction cells are reacted to a cell density of 2.5X10 per ml. 6 cells. 40 μl (1×10 4 Multiple target cells (cells) were cultured in a 96-well V-shaped plate. A five-fold concentrate of the bispecific TCRL test reagent was prepared at the highest tested concentration, and the concentrate was serially diluted one-tenth in medium without phenol red to obtain other tested concentrations. The bispecific TCRL was then added to the multiple target cells in the test plate at 20 μl per well to give multiple final indicated titers. The test plate containing the multiple target cells was then mixed with the bispecific TCRL and incubated at 37°C / 5% CO 2 After 20 minutes of incubation, 40 μl of multiple effector cells (1×10 5 Cells) were added to each well to produce an effector at a 10:1 (E:T) ratio, control wells were individually set up with effector cells to calculate target spontaneous release, and target cells with a final 80 μg / mL of digitalis to calculate maximal release. Each condition was assayed in triplicate in a final volume of 100 μL. The plates were incubated at 37°C / 5% CO 2 After the incubation period, the plates were centrifuged at 700 x g for 5 minutes and 50 μl was transferred from each well to the corresponding well in a 96-well flat-bottom Maxisorb plate (Nunc) using a 4% ethanol flask according to the manufacturer's instructions. The assay buffer was reconstituted as described The matrix mixture was added and 50 microliters was added to each well of the plate. The plate was covered with aluminum foil and left at room temperature for 10 minutes. The absorbance at 490 nanometers was then recorded in a plate reader. The percentage of cytotoxicity was then calculated using the following formula: specific lysis = [(experimental - spontaneous effector - target effector) / (target maximum - target spontaneous value)] x 100. The multiple PBMCs used for the killing assay were isolated from multiple healthy volunteers and had multiple approvals and multiple written consents from all regulatory IRBs. Multiple effector PBMCs were isolated using the Lymphoprep technology.

After co-transfection, multiple cells were cultured for 6 days. After 6 days, multiple cells were centrifuged at 700x g for 5 minutes. After centrifugation, the supernatant containing D11, D7, C106B9, B47B6 or ESK1 Fab was removed from multiple cells and passed through a 0.22μ filter.

[0437] Multiple TCR-like antibodies for HLA-A2 / tyrosinase

[0438] Isolation of multiple Abs with TCR-like specificity for HLA-A2 / tyrosine 369-377

[0439] Production of MHC-TyrD369-377 Complexes - Previous studies conducted by the present inventors have shown the use of large antibody phage libraries to generate recombinant antibodies with peptide specificity, HLA-A2-restricted specificity, for tumor and viral T cell epitopes. Such molecules are referred to as TCR-like antibodies. To produce antibodies with a specificity for the HLA-A2 / TyrD369-377 complex, a single-chain MHC construct was used to produce antibodies expressing the Tyrosinase peptide. 369–377 YMDGTMSQV, SEQ ID NO: 1). HHD mice were immunized by 5-6 injections of 50 μg / mouse of HLA-A2-peptide complexes. The first 2-3 injections were administered subcutaneously with QuilA adjuvant. Hybridoma clones were generated by fusion of spleen cells isolated from immunized mice with NSO myeloma cells (as described above by Weidanz et al. 2011, Int. Rev. Immunol. 30: 328-340), and screened and isolated by differential ELISA assays as described below. ELISA with purified HLA-A2-Tyr complexes and control HLA-A2 complexes showing other HLA-A2-restricted peptides (Table 15) were used to screen for specific clones, and isolated hybridoma clones were subcloned and sequenced. Two clones 906-11-D11 (referred to as D11, Fig.68) and 905-2-D7 (referred to as D7, Fig.69 ) is described.

[0440] Characterization of multiple TCR-like antibodies specific for HLA-A2 / tyrosinase 369-377

[0441] In order to determine the surface affinity of the multiple separated TCR-like antibodies, a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) binding analysis was used, and the multiple separated purified IgG-like TCR antibodies were indirectly immobilized on the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor chip through anti-mouse or human IgG. The analyte was the purified single-chain recombinant HLA-A2 / tyrosinase complex at various concentrations. Figure 1 As shown, the multiple sensorgrams of SPR analysis show similar affinities for multiple TCR-like antibody clones MC1, D11 and D7 specific for the HLA-A2 / tyrosinase, with corresponding MC1 and D11 being 4.1 nanomolar concentrations and D7 being 3.8 nanomolar concentrations. The multiple results indicate that all three TCR-like antibody clones exhibit similar high affinity of 4 nanomolar concentrations for the specific HLA-A2 / peptide complex.

[0442] To investigate the superior peptide epitope specificity of the isolated TCR-like antibodies for the tyrosinase 369-377 peptide, alanine scanning was performed in which specific residues in the peptide were mutated to alanine, and the binding of the TCR-like antibodies to Ala mutant peptides was tested by loading the mutant peptides onto T2 antigen presenting cells. Binding was monitored by flow cytometry, and the extent of binding of the TCR-like antibodies to the mutant peptides was compared to that of T2 APCs loaded with the unmutated tyrosinase peptide as measured by mean fluorescence intensity (MFI). The various Ala mutant peptides (described in Figure 2 ) was monitored by flow cytometry using BB7.2, a monoclonal antibody against HLA-A2.

[0443] All Ala mutant peptides were efficiently loaded onto T2 cells compared to the native unmutated tyrosinase peptide (data not shown). Peptide loading efficiency was verified by using the ratio between the MFI of the HLA-A2-binding antibody BB7.2 and the MFI of unloaded T2 cells (>1). Figure 2As shown, all three TCR-like antibodies exhibited peptide-dependent binding, because specific mutations affected the binding, and when Ala was introduced at specific peptide positions, a reduction in the binding strength of the TCR-like antibodies was induced. The results show that in the case of HLA-A2 addition of various Ala mutant tyrosinase peptides, all three TCR-like antibodies exhibited peptide-specific and restricted binding, indicating that the antibodies are similar to TCR in their binding properties, and therefore, the antibodies bind to the MHC-peptide complex in an MHC-restricted and peptide-specific manner.

[0444] However, the difference in the superior specificity and peptide-dependent responses of the three TCR-like antibodies lies in the number of positions in the peptide that are sensitive to Ala mutations and affected binding sensitivity. When MC1 was bound to a single Ala-mutated peptide at one position #6, a significant decrease of 90% was shown, and both D11 and D7 showed a greater than 90% decrease for D11 at two positions #3, 6, and a greater than 90% reduction in binding at four positions #3, 4, 6, 7. A more modest but significant decrease of greater than 70% was further observed at three positions #1, 3, 6, 4, 6, 7 when MC1 was bound to multiple Ala-mutated peptides, although D11 and D7 showed a significant reduction of greater than 70% binding when five peptide residues were mutated to Ala (positions #1, 2, 3, 4, 6 for D11, and positions #2, 3, 4, 6, 7 for D7).

[0445] Overall, the alanine scanning analysis revealed that D11 and D7 were more affected and sensitive to multiple Ala mutations than MC1 by observing the ability of the various Ala-mutated Tyr peptides to correctly bind to the Tyr-specific TCR-like antibody. Figure 2 As shown in the data, D11 and D7 have higher peptide restriction and sensitivity in the binding properties of D11 and D7 compared to MC1; they are sensitive to Ala mutations in four of the nine peptide residues (excluding multiple anchor positions), while MC1 is only sensitive to three positions. D11 and D7 are sensitive to positions seven and five, respectively, in their binding properties. Specifically, D11 reduced the binding at position #7 by 68%, position #5 by 67%, and position #8 by 59%; D7 reduced the binding at position #5 by 66%, position #1 by 63%, and position #8 by 63%.

[0446] In conclusion, Ala scanning can be used as a means to determine the selectivity and excellent specificity of multiple TCR-like antibodies, and if a higher sensitivity to Ala mutation is shown, a higher specific and peptide-dependent binding can be observed. The strategy can be used to filter and screen the ideal TCR-like antibodies such as multiple MHC-restricted peptide-specific binders that exhibit higher and optimized selectivity and specificity properties.

[0447] Binding selectivity and specificity of multiple TCR-like antibodies for HLA-A2 / tyrosinase

[0448] In order to characterize the binding specificity of the multiple isolated TCR-like antibodies, the reactivity and specificity of the multiple purified IgGs were obtained by flow cytometry. Multiple specific or control peptides were added to multiple T2APCs and cultured with the Abs, followed by culture with PE-labeled anti-human or mouse Abs. Figure 3-7 As shown, the MC1( Figure 7 ), D11 and D7( Figures 3 to 6 ) IgG bound to T2 cells spiked with the tyrosinase peptide, but not significantly to cells spiked with control peptides (Table 15). For MC1, very low background binding was observed on control peptides with MCI ratios of 3-7 ( Figure 7 ), while D11 and D7 did not show any background binding ( Figures 3 to 6 ). The extent of presentation of the loaded peptides was monitored by binding of MAb BB7.2, which bound to all HLA-A2 peptide complexes. The results indicate that all three TCR-like antibodies exhibited specific binding to HLA-A2-restricted peptides, as they bound only to cells expressing the tyrosine, but not to other HLA-A2-restricted peptides.

[0449] In order to explore whether the multiple HLA-A2 / tyrosinase class TCR Abs can bind to multiple endogenously derived MHC-tyrosine salt complexes on the surface of multiple tumor cells, flow cytometry analysis was performed on multiple lines from multiple melanoma patients. Multiple cells were cultured with multiple anti-tyrosinase 369-377 / HLA-A2 class TCR antibodies and then cultured with PE-labeled anti-human or anti-mouse Abs. Figures 8 to 12As shown, the multiple TCR-like antibodies recognized multiple tyrosinase-positive and HLA-A2-positive cells with a very high intensity. As shown, it is shown that a large amount of HLA-A2-tyrosinase complexes are expressed on the surface of the multiple melanoma cells. The staining of the TCR-like antibodies is very uniform; intracellular staining of the multiple melanoma cells (e.g., 624.38, and 501A) with Abs against the tyrosine protein revealed that 95% of the multiple cells in each strain tested expressed the tyrosinase protein (data not shown). No reactivity was detected in tyrosinase-negative or HLA-A2-negative cells. Through extensive flow cytometric analysis of multiple cell lines from various tissue sources, the multiple cell lines were HLA-A2 positive and Ag (tyrosinase) negative, verifying the specificity of anti-tyrosinase / HLA-A2 class TCR Abs. The analysis is as shown in FIG. Figure 10-12 As shown, the reactivity of D11 and D7 was also detected in a panel of normal primary cells including multiple endothelial cells, fibroblasts, astrocytes, hepatocytes, kidney cells, cardiac myocytes, colon muscle and PBMC ( Figure 13-17 No binding was observed with the multiple HLA-A2+ and Tyr- normal primary cells, whereas background binding was observed when MC1 was tested on PBMC ( Fig.17 The analysis of the reactivity of D11 and D7 to multiple HLA-A2+ / tyrosinase+ melanoma cells and a broad panel of HLA-A2+ / tyrosinase- cells of various tissue origins including the multiple normal primary cells is as follows Figure 18-19 The reactivity of the D11 and D7 class TCR antibodies was extremely specific for multiple melanoma cells expressing HLA-A2 and the antigen tyrosinase.

[0450] The overall conclusion of the studies is that the TCR-like Abs are specific and that they only recognize the specific peptide-MHC complexes presented on the cell surface when the sufficient combination of HLA alleles and Ag is present. However, careful evaluation of the flow cytometry data showed that the results showed differential selectivity of MC1 when compared to D11 and D7. For example, analysis of MC1 binding to the HLA-A2+ and Tyr- cell lines HepG2, SW620, and Loucy, as shown in Figure 2 Fig. 9 As shown, background binding as measured by MFI was revealed, however, similar analysis of D11 and D7 on multiple cells revealed no binding ( Fig.10 and 12 ). By comparing the three TCR-like antibodies side by side on these and other cells ( Fig.12) revealed that MC1 exhibited significant binding to multiple melanoma cells with HLA-A2+ / tyr+, but had background binding on a variety of HLA-A2+ / Tyr- cells (SW620, Colo205, HepG2, Panc1, RPMI, DG75, Jeko1 and Loucy), while D11 and D7 did not exhibit any background binding to the multiple cells.

[0451] Therefore, it can be concluded that D11 and D7 are more specific and selective than MC1, and that combined flow cytometry studies and other analyses, for example, functional assays utilizing a large panel of cells from different tissue origins, expressing the appropriate HLA alleles and being antigen positive or negative, are useful tools for evaluating the selectivity of multiple TCR-class antibodies.

[0452] To further evaluate the superior specificity of the tyrosinase-specific TCR-like antibodies, their reactivity to peptides showing sequence similarity to the native tyrosinase was evaluated (Table 5).

[0453] Therefore, when alanine / glycine scanning data for a specific TCR-like antibody is available as described above, another round of screening of similar multiple peptides is performed. Based on alanine scanning, the contribution of each amino acid residue in the peptide antigen to the binding of TCRL is measured and evaluated. Multiple similar peptides that maintain the multiple key positions are identified by the above tools and are given higher priority. The multiple peptides are synthesized and evaluated for excellent specificity as described above.

[0454] The strategy described herein combines in silico analysis of peptide sequence similarity combined with mass spectrometry analysis of eluted HLA peptides, multiple peptide databases, and alanine scanning to provide a toolbox to fully control multiple peptide search parameters, more than other tools such as BLAST or ScanProsite provide. Multiple additional parameters are employed, including the range of peptide lengths allowed, the maximum number or differences allowed in sequences, and the requirement for HLA binding scores. The tool also accommodates the ability to define certain amino acids as equivalent. Most importantly is the ability to highlight multiple peptides that have been discovered by mass spectrometry or from database data or literature.

[0455] Using the above tools, three TCR-like antibodies with superior specificity were synthesized. A large panel of similar peptides was selected for evaluation according to the criteria described herein (Table 5). The multiple similar peptides have been added to multiple T2 APCs, and the reactivity of the multiple TCR-like antibodies has been tested. Fig. 20As shown, when MC1 was tested on a panel of similar peptides, it was observed that MC1 showed background binding to multiple peptides with sequence similarity to tyrosinase, such as KIAA0335 and KPNA1, compared to binding to the native tyrosinase peptide. Figures 21 to 28 As shown, the TCR-like antibodies D11 and D7 did not bind to any similar peptides from a large panel of the peptides analyzed, including no recognition of the KIAA0335 and KPNA1 peptides that showed background binding with MC1. The data demonstrate the superior selectivity and superior specificity of D11 and D7 compared to MC1, and demonstrate the usefulness of the similar peptide approach and the tools developed as described above as important tools to assess the selectivity and superior specificity ranking when evaluating a panel of TCR-like antibodies for the best and most ideal candidates for further evaluation.

[0456] In addition, after alanine scanning of multiple TCR-like antibodies, multiple additional similar peptides have been screened and tested. Since each amino acid in the TyrD peptide sequence is unlikely to contribute equally to the binding of Tyr TCRL, the peptide residues that are critical for Tyr TCRL binding are identified. A combination of multiple synthetic peptides was produced, in which each amino acid in the TyrD 9-mer was sequentially substituted with alanine. The ability of Tyr TCRL to bind to cells with one of the multiple peptides substituted with the multiple alanines was determined by FACS analysis, and the multiple binding results were compared with the binding results obtained with the non-mutated peptides. The residues at the positions where the alanine substitutions resulted in a huge decrease in binding compared to the non-mutated peptides were considered to be critical. A directional computer simulation was then performed to identify protein sequences containing only the multiple key position motifs. The multiple peptides were also used for specificity evaluation of multiple Tyr TCRLs (Tables 5S17 to S23). Similar peptides derived from the alanine scanning assays were synthesized and added to T2 APC cells and tested for reactivity with D11 and D7. Fig.28 As shown, no binding of the multiple peptides was observed, thereby further confirming and enhancing the excellent specificity and selectivity of the multiple TCR-like antibodies.

[0458] Characterization of multiple TCR-like antibodies for HLA-A2 / tyrosinase

[0459] Comparison of the superior specificity of multiple Abs with TCR-like specificity for HLA-A2 / tyrosinase 369-377

[0460] To characterize the binding specificity of the isolated TCR-like antibodies, the reactivity and specificity of the purified IgGs (with or without biotinylation) were evaluated by flow cytometry. T2 APCs or control peptides (Table 15) were added to the tyrosinase peptide and incubated with the Abs (D7, D11 or MC1), followed by incubation with PE-labeled streptavidin or PE-labeled anti-mouse Abs. Fig.38 As shown, multiple D11 and D7 TCRLs bound to T2 cells added with the tyrosinase peptide, but did not show binding to multiple cells added with the control peptide. In contrast, MC1 TCRL showed binding to multiple T2 cells added with the tyrosinase peptide and the unrelated peptide as a control.

[0461] To further evaluate the specificity of the multiple D7 and D11 class TCR antibodies, their reactivity with multiple peptides showing sequence similarity to the tyrosinase peptide was evaluated. The peptides are shown in Table 5.

[0462] like Fig.39 As shown in the Figures, TCRL has readily detectable binding to various peptides with sequence similarity to tyrosinase peptides such as KIAA0335 and KPNA1 (Table 14) and labeled S2, S4, S5, S9, S11, S13, S18, (S19, S22 and S23). Multiple D11 and D7 class TCR antibodies do not bind to any of the multiple peptides from the same group of multiple similar peptides. The multiple data confirm the superior selectivity and superior specificity of D11 and D7 TCRL compared to MC1 TCRL, and demonstrate the usefulness of the similar peptide method and multiple tools developed as described above to evaluate the selectivity and superior specificity ranking of multiple class TCR antibodies.

[0463] The present inventors investigated the binding specificity of multiple TCR-like Abs of HLA-A2 / tyrosinase to multiple MHC-tyrosinase peptide complexes endogenously displayed on the surface of multiple melanoma cell lines. Multiple cells were cultured with multiple TCR-like antibody Abs (with or without biotinylation) against tyrosinase 369-377 / HLA-A2, followed by culture with PE-labeled streptavidin or multiple anti-mouse Abs. A group of tumor cells and multiple normal primary cells that had been characterized for the expression of HLA-A2 (positive) and tyrosinase (positive or negative) were used to compare the binding of the multiple TCR-like antibodies. Fig.40AAs shown in Figures 1 to 3, the multiple TCR-like antibodies recognize multiple tyrosinase-positive and HLA-A2-positive cells. The multiple TCR-like antibodies were tested on multiple HLA-A2-positive cell lines from various sources, which do not show TyrRNA expression (Tyr-negative). Fig.40A As shown in Figures B to C, D11 and D7 TCRLs did not bind to any of the cells, while MC1 readily stained a variety of HLA-A2+ / Tyr- cells. D7 and D11 TCRLs did not show any binding to normal primary cells, while MC1 showed detectable binding to some of them ( Fig.40C ).

[0464] Overall, compared to MC1 TCRL, multiple D7 and D11 TCRLs demonstrated superior specificity and selectivity for recognizing tyrosinase peptides presented by HLA-A2.

[0465] Functional assays were used to further characterize the D7 and D11 class TCR antibodies. The variable regions of the TCRLs were fused to an anti-CD3 scFv that can be used to retarget effector T cells in a bispecific format to kill tumor target cells. Figures 41 to 44 As shown, multiple constructs of D7 and D11 CD3 bispecific TCR-like antibodies showed potent cytotoxicity against multiple melanoma 501A cells in vitro in the presence of multiple human PBMCs. Panc-1, a tyrosinase negative cell line, served as a negative control and showed no cytotoxicity. No cytotoxicity was detected against a panel of multiple HLA-A2+ / Tyr- normal human primary cells with multiple D7 and D11 TCRLs confirming their selectivity.

[0468] Fig.45 The in vivo efficacy of D7 BS TCRL in multiple NOD / SCID mouse models of sc501A melanoma tumor formation was shown. Clearly, administration of the bispecific antibody completely inhibited tumor formation over the 65-day experiment, as demonstrated by tumor volume. The results support the use of variable sequences of TCRL in multiple clinical settings described herein.

[0469] Example 2

[0470] Multiple TCR-like antibodies for HLA-A2 / WT1

[0471] Isolation and characterization of multiple Abs with TCR-like specificity for HLA-A2 / WT1

[0472] To generate the antibodies specific for the HLA-A2 / WT1 complex, recombinant peptide-HLA-A2 complexes were produced using a single-chain MHC construct expressing the WT1 peptide (RMFPNAPYL, SEQ ID NO: 151). Production of antibodies As described in the General Materials and Methods and Example 1 above, a class of TCR-specific clones designated B47 (also referred to as B47B6) was isolated and characterized ( Fig.70 ).

[0473] As a comparison of the binding selectivity of a class of TCR antibodies, a class of TCR antibodies called ESK1, Dao T, Yan S, Veomett N, Pankov D, Zhou L, Korontsvit T, Scott A, Whitten J, Maslak P, Casey E, TanT, Liu H, Zakhaleva V, Curcio M, Doubrovina E, O'Reilly RJ, Liu C, Scheinberg DA.

[0474] The binding affinity of B47 was evaluated by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) binding analysis, and the isolated purified IgG class TCR antibody was indirectly immobilized on the SPR sensor chip via anti-mouse IgG. The analyte was the purified single-chain recombinant HLA-A2 / WT1 complex used at various concentrations. Fig.29 As shown, the multiple sensorgrams of the SPR analysis showed an affinity of 4.4 nanomolar for the HLA-A2 / WT1 specific TCR-like antibody clone B47.

[0475] To characterize the binding specificity of the isolated TCR-like antibodies, the reactivity and specificity of the purified IgGs were evaluated by flow cytometry. T2 APCs were added to specific or control peptides (Table 15) and incubated with Abs, followed by PE-labeled anti-human or mouse Abs. Fig.30 and 31 As shown, B47 and ESK1 bound to T2 cells to which the WT1 peptide was added (Figure 30) but not to cells to which the control peptide was added ( Fig.31 ). A significant difference was observed between the binding strengths of B47 and ESK1.-4 Up to 10 -5 ESK1 was weakly bound to T2 cells with 10 -4 Multiple T2 cells with 10 molar concentrations of WT1 peptide (MFI 18 for ESK1 compared to 474 for B47) were observed at peptide concentrations of 10 -5 At molar concentrations, B47 still bound significantly (MFI 88), whereas binding of ESK1 was almost undetectable or very low ( Fig.30 The results showed that the affinity and binding sensitivity of B47 had significant differences, with ESK1 binding strength decreasing dramatically compared to B47 with a 10-fold decrease in peptide concentration. B47 and ESK1 did not bind to T2 APCs with control HLA-A2-restricted peptides ( Fig.31 ). The results indicate that both TCR-like antibodies exhibit specific binding to HLA-A2-restricted peptides, as they bind only to cells expressing the WT1, but not to other HLA-A2-restricted peptides.

[0476] To further investigate the superior specificity of the multiple WT1-class TCR antibodies, the above-described strategy was used to evaluate the binding to multiple similar peptides simulated in silico. Fig.32 and 33 As shown in Table 6, B47 did not bind to any similar peptides in a designed panel. Fig.32 As shown, ESK1 exhibited low background binding to two similar peptides. B47 was evaluated on additional multiple control peptides and multiple similar peptides ( Fig.34 ). Further analysis of the plurality of TCR-like antibodies was performed by flow cytometry using tumor cells that were HLA-A2 and expressed or did not express the WT1 antigen. Fig.35 As shown, the ESK1 WT1 class TCR-like antibody strongly bound to HLA-A2+ / WT+BV173 and SET2 cells, but B47 did not show any binding to the multiple cells at the level of sensitivity of the flow cytometric technique. To further investigate specificity, the reactivity of ESK1 and B47 was evaluated on cells that were HLA-A2 but did not express the WT1 gene as assessed by PCR. As shown, B47 did not bind to any of the multiple cells, while ESK1 bound to 501, A498, and SKMEL cells that were found to be WT1 negative. Other WT1 negative cells were not bound by ESK1. The level of HLA-A2 expression was monitored by MAb BB7.2, which recognizes all HLA-A2 / peptide molecules on the cell surface. Fig.36A summary of the binding data for the B47 WT-specific TCR-like antibodies is shown.

[0477] To further investigate the conflicting data regarding the binding of ESK1 and B47 to HLA-A2+ / WT1+ BV173 and SET2 cells, i.e., binding could be significantly detected by ESK1, but not B47, we employed direct biochemical approaches to assess actual WT1 expression on the cells. We employed a strategy of elution of HLA peptides from various tissues and BV173 and SET2 cells, followed by MS analysis of the eluted peptides. The data from the experiments indicated that the WT1 peptide was not detected in any of the clinical tissues or cell lines in which the MS was run. In-depth analysis of the BV173 or SET-2 cell lines (mRNA WT1-positive) failed to detect the peptide (Orbitrap or Q Exactive MS instruments). The WT1 peptide was detected by Orbitrap MS followed by direct elution from T2 peptide-spiked cells that were spiked with 10% of various WT1 peptide concentrations. -5 , 10 -7 , 10 -9 molar concentration, and the MS was added with peptide concentration of 10 -5 and 10 -7 The peptide was detected in multiple eluates of multiple T2 APC with different molar concentrations, and the peptide was detected by the MS from the eluate containing 10 -7 Multiple T2 APCs at molar concentrations of the peptide detected the peptide corresponding to actual expression of approximately 250 sites / cell (using the Orbitrap MS).

[0478] The data illustrate the utility of the described binding tools for peptide-spiked cells displaying similar peptides and cells of various histological origins to assess the specificity and selectivity of TCR-like antibodies.

[0479] To further investigate epitope specificity, alanine scanning mutagenesis was performed on the WT1 peptide sequence. Fig.37As shown, it is shown that only mutations in position 1 of the WT1 peptide affect the binding strength of ESK1, indicating that the binding selectivity and superior specificity of ESK1 are limited compared to B47, as is the observed specificity pattern, as observed for multiple similar peptides, and for multiple cells of HLA-A2+ / WT1- / . The multiple data indicate that the selectivity and superior specificity of B47 are excellent compared to ESK1, and the toolbox described herein is a valuable tool to evaluate the selectivity and superior specificity of multiple TCR-like antibodies during screening, phenotyping, and preclinical development of multiple TCR-like antibodies.

[0480] Example 2A

[0481] Multiple TCR-like antibodies for HLA-A2 / WT1

[0482] Comparison of the superior specificity of multiple Abs with TCR-like specificity for HLA-A2 / WT1

[0483] The selectivity of multiple TCR-like antibodies B47 and ESK1 was compared (Dao et al., Science Translational Medicine, 2013 Mar 13;5(176):176ra33).

[0484] T2 APCs were added with specific (WT1, SEQ ID NO: 141) or control peptides (Table 15) and incubated with B47 and ESK1 antibodies, followed by PE-labeled streptavidin or anti-mouse Abs. Both B47 and ESK1 TCRLs bound to T2 cells added with the WT1 peptide, but not to cells added with control peptides ( Fig.46 A panel of similar peptides (Table 6) was synthesized to further characterize the specificity of the WT1 TCRL. The B47 TCRL did not bind to T2 cells spiked with any of the similar peptides, whereas ESK1 TCRL showed detectable binding to several of the similar peptides ( Fig.47 ). ESK1 TCRL showed binding to a similar peptide derived from HDAC2 (histone deacetylase 2, Table 14), which is commonly expressed in many normal cells. , WT1-S10 (SEQ ID NO: 151) was expressed in multiple normal tissues, as confirmed by mass spectrometry in brain, cerebral cortex, heart, kidney, liver, lung, and other normal tissues (Table 14).

[0485] Further characterization of the binding of B47 to multiple ESK1 TCRLs by SPR showed that the affinity of B47 (5 nanomolar) was stronger than that of ESK1 (200 nanomolar), mainly due to the faster dissociation rate of ESK1 with multiple MHC-WT1 peptide complexes ( Fig.48 ).

[0486] Additional alanine scanning mutagenesis of the WT1 peptide was performed to improve the peptide epitope specificity of multiple B47-class TCR antibodies ( Fig.49 ). The multiple mutant peptides were added to multiple T2 cells and the binding analysis was performed as described above. The loading of the various Ala mutations was monitored by flow cytometry using the BB7.2 monoclonal antibody against HLA-A2.

[0487] like Fig.49 As shown, multiple substitutions of Ala at some positions significantly affected B47 binding to the multiple mutant peptides. B47 TCRL showed greater sensitivity to multiple positional substitutions (compared to ESK1, Fig.37 ). When four residues in the peptide were mutated to alanine (positions 1, 3, 4, and 7), the B47 class TCR antibody lost >73% of its binding to the presented peptide. The sensitivity of the fifth position can be attributed to position number 5. For both B47 and ESK1TCRLs, position 2 is critical as it is thought to serve as an anchor position for the peptides in the HLA-A2 peptide binding groove.

[0488] Further characterization and comparison between B47 and ESK1 TCRL were performed on multiple tumor cell lines and primary cells from various sources. Fig.50As shown, B47 does not bind to a group of cells, and the cells of the group are all HLA-A2 positive and WT1 mRNA positive or negative multiple cells. In contrast, ESK1 TCRL binds to a number of tumors and normal primary cells (all HLA-A2+). For example, JVM2 and IM9 (both HLA-A2 positive and WT1 negative) and multiple normal primary astrocytes show binding. Cytotoxicity assays using TCRL-aCD3 bispecific constructs and multiple human PBMCs show that B47 TCRL does not induce the death of multiple cells of HLA-A2+ / WT1+ or HLA-A2+ / WT1-, while ESK1 TCRL-aCD3 is cytotoxic to a number of cells, including WT-1 negative. Therefore, B47 TCRL in the form of the bispecific both shows superior specificity in combination and functional activity, compared to ESK1, which binds to and retargets CD3 T cells to some cells, including multiple normal primary cells, regardless of the expression of WT-1.

[0491] Example 3A

[0492] Isolation and characterization of TCRL specific for HLA-A2 / MAGE-A4

[0493] To characterize the binding specificity of the isolated TCR-like antibodies, the reactivity and specificity of the purified IgGs were evaluated by flow cytometry. MAGE-A4 peptide or control peptides (Table 15) were added to T2 APCs and cultured with the TCRL Ab C106B, followed by PE-labeled streptavidin or PE-labeled anti-mouse Abs. Fig.52 As shown, C106B9 bound to T2 cells to which MAGE-A4 peptide was added, but did not bind to cells to which control peptide was added.

[0494] To further evaluate the specificity of the C106B9 class TCR antibodies, their reactivity with multiple peptides showing sequence similarity to the MAGE-A4 peptide was evaluated. The peptides are shown in Table 8.

[0495] like Fig.53As shown, C106B9 TCRL class TCR antibody does not bind to any of the peptides from the same group of similar peptides. The data demonstrate the high selectivity and high specificity of C106B9, and demonstrate the usefulness of the similar peptide method and the tools developed as described above to evaluate the selectivity and excellent specificity of multiple TCRLs.

[0496] In order to determine the surface affinity of the multiple separated TCR-like antibodies, a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) binding analysis was used, and the separated purified IgG-like TCR antibodies were indirectly immobilized on the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor chip through anti-mouse IgG. The analyte was the purified single-chain recombinant HLA-A2 / MAGE-A4 complex at various concentrations. Fig.54 As shown, the multiple sensorgrams of SPR analysis showed similar affinities for the multiple TCR-like antibody clone C106B9 specific for the HLA-A2 / MAGE-A4 with a corresponding affinity of 8.8 nanomolar concentration.

[0497] To investigate the superior peptide epitope specificity of the isolated TCR-like antibodies for the MAGE-A4 peptide, alanine scanning was performed in which specific residues in the peptide were mutated to alanine, and the binding of the TCR-like antibodies to Ala mutant peptides was tested by loading the mutant peptides onto T2 antigen presenting cells (Table 9). Binding was monitored by flow cytometry, and the extent of binding of the TCR-like antibodies to the mutant peptides was compared to that of T2 APCs loaded with the unmutated MAGE-A4 peptide as measured by mean fluorescence intensity (MFI). The various Ala mutant peptides (described in Figure 2 ) was monitored by flow cytometry using BB7.2, a monoclonal antibody against HLA-A2.

[0498] All Ala mutant peptides were efficiently added to multiple T2 cells compared to the native unmutated MAGE-A4 (data not shown). Fig.55As shown, the TCR-like antibody exhibited peptide-dependent binding because multiple specific mutations affected the binding and when Ala was introduced at multiple specific peptide positions, a reduction in the binding strength of the TCR-like antibody was induced. The multiple results showed that in the case of HLA-A2 adding various Ala-mutated MAGE-A4 peptides, the MAGE-A4-like TCR antibody exhibited peptide-specific and restricted binding, indicating that the antibody is similar to TCR in the binding properties of the antibody, and therefore, the antibody binds to the MHC-peptide complex in an MHC-restricted and peptide-specific manner.

[0499] The C106B9 class TCR antibody exhibited a significant decrease of 90% in binding to the Ala mutant peptide at four positions #4, 5, 6 and 7. The sensitivity of the fifth position was attributed to position number 2 (33% decrease).

[0500] In general, the alanine scanning analysis revealed that Ala scanning can be used as a means to determine the selectivity and excellent specificity of multiple TCR-like antibodies, and if a higher sensitivity is shown to Ala mutations, a higher specific and peptide-dependent binding can be observed. The strategy can be used to filter and screen the ideal TCR-like antibodies such as multiple MHC-restricted peptide-specific binders that exhibit higher and optimized selectivity and specificity properties.

[0501] The present inventors investigated the binding specificity of HLA-A2 / MAGE-A4 TCR-like Abs to multiple MHC-MAGE-A4 peptide complexes endogenously displayed on the surface of multiple melanoma cell lines. Multiple cells were cultured with multiple anti-MAGE-A4-HLA-A2 TCR-like antibody Abs, followed by PE-labeled streptavidin or multiple anti-mouse Abs. A group of tumor cells and multiple normal primary cells were characterized for the expression of HLA-A2 (positive) and MAGE-A4 (positive or negative) and were used to compare the binding of the multiple TCR-like antibodies. Fig.56 As shown, the TCR-like antibody recognized multiple cells with low intensity of MAGE-A4-positive and HLA-A2-positive. The TCR-like antibody was tested on multiple HLA-A2-positive cell lines of various sources, which did not show MAGE-A4 RNA expression (MAGE-A4-negative), and the killing ability of these cells with a MAGE-A4 / HLA-A2 TCRL-bispecific construct was also tested. Fig.56 As shown, C106B9 did not bind to any of the multiple cells.

[0502] Multiple functional analyses were used to further characterize the C106B9 class TCR antibody. Multiple variable regions of multiple TCRLs were fused to an anti-CD3 scFv, which can retarget multiple effector T cells in a bispecific format to kill tumor target cells. Fig.57 As shown, multiple constructs of the C106B9 bispecific TCR-like antibody showed potent cytotoxicity against multiple MAGE-A4 positive cells in vitro in the presence of multiple human PBMCs. TCCSUP and OVCAR, MAGE-A4 negative cell lines served as negative controls and showed no cytotoxicity. As further described in Fig.58 As shown, no cytotoxicity was detected using C106B9 TCRL against a panel of multiple HLA-A2+ / MAGE-A4- normal human primary cells confirming their selectivity.

[0508] Isolation and characterization of TCRL specific for HLA-A2 / MAGE-A9

[0509] To characterize the binding specificity of the multiple isolated TCR-like antibodies, the reactivity and specificity of the multiple purified IgGs were evaluated by flow cytometry. MAGE-A9 peptide or multiple control peptides were added to multiple T2 APCs and cultured with the TCRL Ab F184C7, followed by culture with PE-labeled streptavidin or multiple PE-labeled anti-mouse Abs. Fig.60 As shown, F184C7 bound to T2 cells to which MAGE-A9 peptide was added, but did not bind to cells to which control peptide was added.

[0510] To further evaluate the specificity of the F184C7 class TCR antibodies, their reactivity with multiple peptides showing sequence similarity to the MAGE-A9 peptide was evaluated. The peptides are shown in Table 10.

[0511] like Fig.61 As shown, the F184C7 TCRL class TCR antibody does not bind to any of the peptides from the same group of similar peptides. The data demonstrate the high selectivity and specificity of F184C7, and demonstrate the usefulness of the similar peptide method and the tools developed as described above to evaluate the selectivity and excellent specificity of multiple TCRLs.

[0512] To investigate the superior peptide epitope specificity of the isolated TCR-like antibodies for the MAGE-A9 peptide, alanine scanning was performed in which specific residues in the peptide were mutated to alanine, and the binding of the TCR-like antibodies to Ala mutant peptides was tested by loading the mutant peptides onto T2 antigen presenting cells (Table 11). Binding was monitored by flow cytometry, and the extent of binding of the TCR-like antibodies to the mutant peptides was compared to that of T2 APCs loaded with the unmutated MAGE-A4 peptide as measured by mean fluorescence intensity (MFI). The various Ala mutant peptides (described in Figure 2 ) was monitored by flow cytometry using BB7.2, a monoclonal antibody against HLA-A2.

[0513] All Ala mutant peptides were efficiently added to multiple T2 cells compared to the native unmutated MAGE-A9 (data not shown). Fig.62 As shown, the TCR-like antibody exhibited peptide-dependent binding because multiple specific mutations affected the binding and when Ala was introduced at multiple specific peptide positions, a reduction in the binding strength of the TCR-like antibody was induced. The multiple results showed that in the case of HLA-A2 adding various Ala-mutated MAGE-A9 peptides, the TCR-like antibody exhibited peptide-specific and restricted binding, indicating that the antibody is similar to TCR in the binding properties of the antibody, and therefore, the antibody binds to the MHC-peptide complex in an MHC-restricted and peptide-specific manner.

[0514] The F184C7 class TCR antibody exhibited a significant decrease of 90% in binding to the Ala mutant peptide at five positions #3, 5, 6, 7 and 8.

[0515] In general, the alanine scanning analysis revealed that Ala scanning can be used as a means to determine the selectivity and excellent specificity of multiple TCR-like antibodies, and if a higher sensitivity is shown to Ala mutations, a higher specific and peptide-dependent binding can be observed. The strategy can be used to filter and screen the ideal TCR-like antibodies such as multiple MHC-restricted peptide-specific binders that exhibit higher and optimized selectivity and specificity properties.

[0516] The present inventors investigated the binding specificity of the HLA-A2 / MAGE-A9 class TCR Ab to a panel of normal primary cells of various origins that do not express MAGE-A9 RNA. Fig.63 As shown, F184C7TCRL did not bind to any of the plurality of cells. The positive control group was a plurality of T2 cells to which the MAGE-A9 peptide was added, and the plurality of T2 cells were strongly bound by the F184C7 peptide.

[0519] Isolation and characterization of TCRL specific for HLA-A2 / PAP

[0520] To characterize the binding specificity of the isolated TCR-like antibodies, the reactivity and specificity of the purified IgGs were evaluated by flow cytometry. PAP peptide or control peptides were added to T2 APCs and cultured with the TCRL Ab D10A3, followed by culture with PE-labeled streptavidin or PE-labeled anti-mouse Abs. Fig.64 As shown, D10A3 bound to T2 cells to which PAP peptide was added, but did not bind to cells to which control peptide was added.

[0521] To further evaluate the specificity of the D10A3 class TCR antibodies, their reactivity with a number of peptides showing sequence similarity to the PAP peptide was evaluated. The peptides are shown in Table 12.

[0522] like Fig.65 As shown, the D10A3 TCRL class TCR antibody does not bind to any of the peptides from the same group of similar peptides. The data demonstrate the high selectivity and specificity of D10A3 and the usefulness of the similar peptide approach and the tools developed as described above to assess the selectivity and excellent specificity of TCRLs.

[0523] To investigate the superior peptide epitope specificity of the isolated TCR-like antibodies for the PAP peptide, alanine scanning was performed in which specific residues in the peptide were mutated to alanine and the binding of the TCR-like antibodies to Ala mutant peptides was tested by loading the mutant peptides onto T2 antigen presenting cells (Table 13). Binding was monitored by flow cytometry and the extent of binding of the TCR-like antibodies to the mutant peptides was compared to that of T2 APCs loaded with the unmutated PAP peptide as measured by mean fluorescence intensity (MFI). The various Ala mutant peptides (described in Figure 2 ) was monitored by flow cytometry using BB7.2, a monoclonal antibody against HLA-A2.

[0524] All Ala mutant peptides were efficiently added to multiple T2 cells compared to the native unmutated PAP (data not shown). Fig.66 As shown, the TCR-like antibody exhibited peptide-dependent binding because multiple specific mutations affected the binding and when Ala was introduced at multiple specific peptide positions, a reduction in the binding strength of the TCR-like antibody was induced. The multiple results showed that in the case of HLA-A2 adding various Ala mutant PAP peptides, the TCR-like antibody exhibited peptide-specific and restricted binding, indicating that the antibody is similar to TCR in the binding properties of the antibody, and therefore, the antibody binds to the MHC-peptide complex in an MHC-restricted and peptide-specific manner.

[0525] The D10A3 class TCR antibody exhibited a significant decrease of 90% at three positions #3, 6, and 8 in binding to the Ala mutant peptide. A 70% reduction in binding to an Ala mutant peptide at position #4 was also observed. A fifth position of sensitivity was attributed to position number 7 (45% reduction).

[0526] The present inventors investigated the binding specificity of the HLA-A2 / PAP class TCR Ab to a panel of normal primary cells of various origins that do not express PAP RNA. Fig.67 As shown, D10A3 TCRL did not bind to any of the plurality of cells. The positive control group was a plurality of T2 cells to which the PAP peptide was added, and the plurality of T2 cells were strongly bound by the D10A3 peptide.
