Abstract
Description
Antigen binding molecules specifically binding to DLL3 and CD3 and their medical uses Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure belongs to the field of biotechnology, and more specifically, relates to DLL3 / CD3 antigen binding molecules and applications thereof. Background Art
[0002] The statements herein merely provide background information related to the present disclosure and do not necessarily constitute prior art.
[0003] Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a relatively malignant type of lung cancer, accounting for 10%-15% of all lung cancer cases. Small cell lung cancer tumors grow rapidly and are prone to metastasis, with a 5-year survival rate of less than 7%. Treatment options for small cell lung cancer are limited, primarily consisting of chemotherapy, such as platinum / etoposide combination chemotherapy. Small cell lung cancer patients respond well to chemotherapy initially, but are very prone to developing drug resistance and relapse. In recent years, immunotherapies, such as PD-L1 and PD1 antibodies, have shown some effectiveness in SCLC patients, but the efficacy is approximately 15%. Currently, no specific targeted therapy has been developed.
[0004] DLL3 is a ligand that inhibits Notch. Normally, DLL3 resides on the Golgi apparatus. In cancer cells (such as small cell lung cancer), DLL3 is expressed on the cell surface. DLL3 binds to Notch in a cis-acting manner, hindering cell-cell binding and Notch internalization in target cells, thereby inhibiting the Notch signaling pathway and promoting tumor cell growth. DLL3 is primarily expressed in neural or neuroendocrine tumors, including small cell lung cancer, large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma, gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors, small cell bladder cancer, glioblastoma multiforme, metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, and melanoma. DLL3 is particularly expressed in SCLC, with over 80% of SCLCs expressing DLL3, whereas normal lung cancer tissue and adjacent adjacent tissues are negative. This differential expression makes DLL3 a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of SCLC.
[0005] CD3 is a homotypic or heterotypic dimeric antigen expressed on T cells. Functional CD3 is formed by dimerization of two of four different chains: ε, ζ, δ, and γ. CD3 dimer arrangements include γ / ε, δ / ε, and ζ / ζ. CD3 binds to the T cell receptor complex (TCR) and is required for T cell activation. Therefore, the use of anti-CD3 antibodies that activate T cells has been proposed for the treatment of cancer. However, the administration of anti-CD3 antibodies may trigger T cell activation and related cytokine release. Excessive cytokine release leads to severe cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which is an important challenge in the clinical use of anti-CD3 antibodies.

[0834] the term
[0835] The terms used herein are for the purpose of describing the embodiments only and are not intended to be limiting. Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs.
[0836] Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, throughout the specification and claims, the words "comprising," "having," "including," and the like should be understood to have an inclusive meaning, rather than an exclusive or exhaustive meaning; that is, to mean "including, but not limited to." Unless otherwise indicated, "comprising" includes "consisting of." For example, a reference to a DLL3-HCDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 20 specifically encompasses a DLL3-HCDR1 having the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 20.
[0837] The three letter and one letter codes for amino acids used in this disclosure are as described in J. biol. chem, 243, p3558 (1968).
[0838] The term "and / or," such as "X and / or Y," should be understood to mean "X and Y" or "X or Y" and should be used to provide clear support for both meanings or either meaning.
[0839] Unless specified as being from a non-human species (e.g., "mouse CD3," "mouse CD3 fragment," "monkey CD3," "monkey CD3 fragment," etc.), "CD3" and "CD3 fragment" as used herein refer to the well-known human CD3 protein or a fragment thereof.
[0840] The term "amino acid" refers to naturally occurring and synthetic amino acids, as well as amino acid analogs and amino acid mimetics that function in a manner similar to naturally occurring amino acids. Naturally occurring amino acids are those encoded by the genetic code, as well as those that are later modified, such as hydroxyproline, γ-carboxyglutamate, and O-phosphoserine. Amino acid analogs refer to compounds that have the same basic chemical structure as naturally occurring amino acids (i.e., an alpha carbon bound to a hydrogen, a carboxyl group, an amino group, and an R group), such as homoserine, norleucine, methionine sulfoxide, and methionine methylsulfonium. Such analogs have modified R groups (e.g., norleucine) or modified peptide backbones, but retain the same basic chemical structure as naturally occurring amino acids. Amino acid mimetics refer to chemical compounds that have a structure that is different from the general chemical structure of an amino acid, but function in a manner similar to naturally occurring amino acids.
[0841] The term "amino acid mutation" includes amino acid substitutions, deletions, insertions, and modifications. Any combination of substitutions, deletions, insertions, and modifications can be performed to achieve the final construct, as long as the final construct possesses the desired properties, such as reduced binding to Fc receptors. Amino acid sequence deletions and insertions include deletions and insertions at the amino and / or carboxyl termini of the polypeptide chain. Specific amino acid mutations can be amino acid substitutions. In one embodiment, the amino acid mutation is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, i.e., replacing one amino acid with another amino acid having different structural and / or chemical properties. Amino acid substitutions include replacement with non-naturally occurring amino acids or with derivatives of the 20 natural amino acids (e.g., 4-hydroxyproline, 3-methylhistidine, ornithine, homoserine, 5-hydroxylysine). Amino acid mutations can be generated using genetic or chemical methods known in the art. Genetic methods can include site-directed mutagenesis, PCR, gene synthesis, and the like. It is anticipated that methods other than genetic engineering to alter amino acid side chain groups, such as chemical modification, are also useful. Various names may be used herein to refer to the same amino acid mutation. Herein, the amino acid residue at a specific position can be represented by position + amino acid residue, for example, 366W means that the amino acid residue at position 366 is W. T366W means that the amino acid residue at position 366 has mutated from T to W.
[0842] The term "antigen binding molecule" is used in the broadest sense to encompass various molecules that specifically bind to antigens, including but not limited to antibodies, other polypeptides with antigen binding activity, and antibody fusion proteins formed by fusion of the two, as long as they exhibit the desired antigen binding activity. The antigen binding molecules herein comprise a variable region (VH) and a variable region (VL), which together constitute an antigen binding domain. Exemplary, the antigen binding molecules herein are bispecific antigen binding molecules (e.g., bispecific antibodies).
[0843] The term "antibody" is used in the broadest sense and encompasses various antibody structures, including but not limited to monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies; monospecific antibodies, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), full-length antibodies, and antibody fragments (or antigen-binding fragments, or antibody fragments, or antigen-binding portions), as long as they exhibit the desired antigen-binding activity. Depending on the context, a skilled person can determine the specific meaning of "antibody".
[0844] "Natural antibody" refers to naturally occurring immunoglobulin molecules. For example, natural IgG antibodies are heterotetrameric glycoproteins of approximately 150,000 daltons, consisting of two light chains and two heavy chains bound by disulfide bonds. From N to C-terminus, each heavy chain has a variable region (VH, also known as variable heavy domain, heavy chain variable region), followed by three constant domains (CH1, CH2 and CH3). Similarly, from N to C-terminus, each light chain has a variable region (VL, also known as variable light domain, or light chain variable domain), followed by a constant light domain (light chain constant region, CL). The terms "full-length antibody", "complete antibody" and "whole antibody" are used interchangeably herein and refer to antibodies having a structure substantially similar to that of natural antibody structure or having a heavy chain containing an Fc region as defined herein.
[0845] The term "bispecific antibody" refers to an antibody (including an antibody or its antigen-binding fragment, such as a single-chain antibody) that can specifically bind to two different antigens or at least two different antigenic epitopes of the same antigen. Prior art has disclosed bispecific antibodies of various structures. Based on the integrity of the IgG molecule, they can be divided into IgG-like bispecific antibodies and antibody fragment-type bispecific antibodies; based on the number of antigen-binding regions, they can be divided into bivalent, trivalent, tetravalent, or higher-valent bispecific antibodies; and based on whether the structure is bilaterally symmetrical, they can be divided into symmetrical bispecific antibodies and asymmetrical bispecific antibodies. Among them, bispecific antibodies based on antibody fragments, such as Fab fragments lacking Fc fragments, are formed by combining two or more Fab fragments into one molecule. They have low immunogenicity, small molecular weight, and high tumor tissue penetration. Typical antibody structures of this type include F(ab)2, scFv-Fab, (scFv)2-Fab and other bispecific antibodies; IgG-like bispecific antibodies (for example, with Fc fragments) have a relatively large molecular weight. The Fc fragment helps in the later purification of the antibody and improves its solubility and stability. The Fc part may also bind to the receptor FcRn to increase the antibody serum half-life. Typical bispecific antibody structural models include KiH, CrossMAb, Triomab quadroma, FcΔAdp, ART-Ig, BiMAb, Biclonics, BEAT, DuoBody, Azymetric, XmAb, 2:1TCBs, 1Fab-IgG TDB, FynomAb, two-in-one / DAF, scFv-Fab-IgG, DART-Fc, LP-DART, CODV-Fab-TL, HLE-BiTE, F(ab)2-CrossMAb, IgG-(scFv)2, Bs4Ab, DVD-Ig, Tetravalent-DART-Fc, (scFv)4-Fc, CODV-Ig, mAb2, F(ab)4-CrossMAb and other bispecific antibodies (see Aran F. Labrijn et al., Nature Reviews Drug Discovery volume 18, pages 585–608 (2019); Chen S1 et al., J Immunol Res. 2019 Feb 11; 2019: 4516041).
[0846] The term "variable region" or "variable domain" refers to the domain of an antigen-binding molecule that binds to an antigen. Herein, the heavy chain variable region in an antigen-binding moiety that specifically binds to CD3 is designated as CD3-VH, and the light chain variable region is designated as CD3-VL; the heavy chain variable region in an antigen-binding moiety that specifically binds to CD3 is designated as CD3-VH, and the light chain variable region is designated as CD3-VL. VH and VL each contain four conserved framework regions (FRs) and three complementarity-determining regions (CDRs). The term "complementarity-determining regions" or "CDRs" refers to the region within the variable domain that primarily contributes to antigen binding; "framework" or "FRs" refers to the variable domain residues excluding the CDR residues. VH contains three CDR regions: HCDR1, HCDR2, and HCDR3; VL contains three CDR regions: LCDR1, LCDR2, and LCDR3. Herein, the three CDR regions in CD3-VH are designated as CD3-HCDR1, CD3-HCDR2, and CD3-HCDR3; the three CDR regions in CD3-VL are designated as CD3-LCDR1, CD3-LCDR2, and CD3-LCDR3; the three CDR regions in CD3-VH are designated as CD3-HCDR1, CD3-HCDR2, and CD3-HCDR3; and the three CDR regions in CD3-VL are designated as CD3-LCDR1, CD3-LCDR2, and CD3-LCDR3. From N-terminus to C-terminus, each VH and VL consists of: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4. A single VH or VL may be sufficient to confer antigen-binding specificity.
[0847] The amino acid sequence boundaries of CDRs can be determined by various well-known schemes, for example: "Kabat" numbering convention (see Kabat et al. (1991), "Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest", 5th edition, Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD), "Chothia" numbering convention, "ABM" numbering convention, "contact" numbering convention (see Martin, ACR. Protein Sequence and Structure Analysis of Antibody Variable Domains [J]. 2001) and ImMunoGenTics (IMGT) numbering convention (Lefranc, MP et al., Dev. Comp. Immunol., 27, 55-77 (2003); Front Immunol. 2018 Oct 16; 9: 2278), etc. The correspondence between various numbering systems is well known to those skilled in the art. The numbering convention of the present disclosure is shown in Table 1 below.
[0848] Table 1. Relationships between CDR numbering systems
[0849] Unless otherwise specified, the variable region and CDR sequences in the disclosed embodiments are all numbered using the "Kabat" convention.
[0850] The term "antibody fragment" or "antigen-binding fragment" refers to a molecule other than an intact antibody that comprises a portion of an intact antibody that retains the antigen-binding ability of the intact antibody. Examples of antibody fragments include, but are not limited to, Fv, Fab, Fab', Fab'-SH, F(ab')2, single-domain antibodies, single-chain Fab (scFab), diabodies, linear antibodies, single-chain antibody molecules (e.g., scFv); and multispecific antibodies formed from antibody fragments.
[0851] The term "Fc region" or "fragment crystallizable region" is used to define the C-terminal region of the antibody heavy chain, including native Fc regions and modified Fc regions. In some embodiments, the Fc region comprises two identical or different subunits. In some embodiments, the Fc region of the human IgG heavy chain is defined as extending from the amino acid residue at position Cys226 or from Pro230 to its carboxyl terminus. Suitable native sequence Fc regions for the antibodies described herein include human IgG1, IgG2 (IgG2A, IgG2B), IgG3, and IgG4. Unless otherwise indicated, the numbering convention for the Fc region is the EU index.
[0852] The term "Titin chain" refers to a peptide segment of 78-118 amino acids in the titin protein containing the titin Ig-like 152 domain or a functional variant thereof, wherein the titin chain can bind to the obscurin Ig-like 1 or obscurin-like Ig-like 1 domain to form a dimerization complex.
[0853] The term "Obscurin chain" refers to a peptide segment of 87-117 amino acids in length on the Obscurin protein containing the Obscurin Ig-like 1 domain or a functional variant thereof, or a peptide segment of 78-118 amino acids in length on the Obscurin-like 1 protein containing the Obscurin-like Ig-like 1 domain or a functional variant thereof.
[0854] The obscurin chain can bind to the titin chain to form a dimerization complex. The titin chain and the obscurin chain disclosed herein can be used to replace CH1 and CL in Fab, respectively, to form a replaced Fab (Fab-S), and the replacement does not affect the binding of the antigen-binding molecule to the antigen.
[0855] The term "chimeric" antibody refers to an antibody in which a portion of the heavy and / or light chain is derived from a particular source or species, while the remainder of the heavy and / or light chain is derived from a different source or species.
[0856] The term "humanized" antibody is an antibody that retains the reactivity of a non-human antibody while having lower immunogenicity in humans. For example, this can be achieved by retaining the non-human CDR regions and replacing the rest of the antibody with their human counterparts (i.e., the constant region and the framework region portion of the variable region).
[0857] The term "affinity" refers to the overall intensity of non-covalent interactions between a single binding site of a molecule (e.g., an antibody) and its binding partner (e.g., an antigen). Unless otherwise indicated, as used herein, "binding affinity" refers to internal binding affinity, which reflects 1:1 interactions between members of a binding pair (e.g., an antibody and an antigen). The affinity of molecule X to its part Y can generally be represented by an equilibrium dissociation constant (KD). Affinity can be measured by conventional methods known in the art (including those described herein). The term "kassoc" or "ka" refers to the association rate of a specific antibody-antigen interaction, and the term "kdis" or "kd" as used herein is intended to refer to the dissociation rate of a specific antibody-antigen interaction. As used herein, the term "KD" refers to an equilibrium dissociation constant, which is derived from the ratio of kd to ka (i.e., kd / ka) and is expressed as molar concentration (M). The KD value of an antibody can be measured using methods known in the art, such as surface plasmon resonance, ELISA, or solution equilibrium titration (SET).
[0858] The term "monoclonal antibody" refers to a group of substantially homogeneous antibodies, i.e., the amino acid sequences of the antibody molecules contained in the group are identical, except for possible natural mutations that may be present in small amounts. In contrast, polyclonal antibody preparations typically contain a variety of different antibodies with different amino acid sequences in their variable domains, which are typically specific for different epitopes. In some embodiments, the antibodies provided herein are monoclonal antibodies.
[0859] The term "antigen" refers to a molecule or portion of a molecule that can be bound by a selective binding agent of an antigen binding molecule (e.g., an antibody). An antigen may have one or more epitopes that can interact with different antigen binding molecules (e.g., antibodies).
[0860] The term "epitope" refers to an area or region on an antigen that is capable of specific binding to an antibody or its antigen-binding fragment. An epitope can be formed by contiguous amino acids (linear epitope) or comprise non-contiguous amino acids (conformational epitope), for example, when the non-contiguous amino acids are brought into spatial proximity due to the folding of the antigen (i.e., by the tertiary folding of the antigen in the case of proteinaceous properties). Conformational epitopes differ from linear epitopes in that antibody binding to the conformational epitope is lost in the presence of denaturing solvents. An epitope comprises at least 3, at least 4, at least 5, at least 6, at least 7, or 8-10 amino acids in a unique spatial conformation. Screening for antibodies that bind to a particular epitope (i.e., those that bind to the same epitope) can be performed using routine methods in the art, such as, but not limited to, alanine scanning, peptide blotting (see Meth. Mol. Biol. 248 (2004) 443-463), peptide cleavage analysis, epitope excision, epitope extraction, chemical modification of antigens (see Prot. Sci. 9 (2000) 487-496), and cross-blocking (see "Antibodies", Harlow and Lane (Cold Spring Harbor Press, Cold Spring Harb., NY)).
[0861] The terms "capable of specific binding", "specific binding" or "binding" refer to the ability of an antigen-binding molecule to bind to an antigen or epitope with a higher affinity than to other antigens or epitopes. -7 M or less (e.g., about 1×10 -8 In some embodiments, the antibody binds to the antigen with an equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) of 4 M or less. In some embodiments, the antibody binds to the antigen with a KD that is 10% or less (e.g., 1%) of the KD of the antibody bound to a nonspecific antigen (e.g., BSA, casein). KD can be measured using known methods, such as those measured by FACS or surface plasmon resonance assays. However, an antibody that specifically binds to an antigen or its epitope may have cross-reactivity to other related antigens, for example, to corresponding antigens from other species (homologous) such as humans or monkeys, e.g., Macaca fascicularis (cynomolgus, cyno), Pan troglodytes (chimpanzee, chimp), or Callithrix jacchus (common marmoset, marmoset).
[0862] The term "not binding" means that the antigen-binding molecule is unable to bind to an antigen or its epitope in the manner of specific binding described above. For example, when the antibody is about 1×10 -6The present invention binds to the antigen or its epitope with an equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) of M or greater.
[0863] The term "antigen binding moiety" refers to a polypeptide molecule that specifically binds to a target antigen. Specific antigen binding moieties include the antigen binding domains of antibodies, for example, comprising heavy chain variable regions and light chain variable regions. The term "antigen binding moiety that specifically binds to CD3" refers to a module that is capable of binding to CD3 or its epitope with sufficient affinity so that the molecule containing the module can be used as a diagnostic and / or therapeutic agent targeting CD3. For example, an antigen binding moiety that specifically binds to CD3 has the following equilibrium dissociation constant (KD): <about 10 nM, which is measured by surface plasmon resonance assay. Antigen binding moieties include antibody fragments as defined herein, such as Fab, substituted Fab or scFv.
[0864] The term "linker" refers to a connecting unit that connects two polypeptide fragments. As used herein, linkers appearing in the same structural formula may be the same or different. A linker may be a peptide linker comprising one or more amino acids, typically comprising about 1-30, 2-24, or 3-15 amino acids. The linkers used herein may be the same or different. When "-" appears in a structural formula, it indicates that the units on either side are directly connected by a covalent bond.
[0865] "Tm" is the melting denaturation temperature (intrinsic fluorescence). When a protein denatures (by heat or denaturants), the tertiary structure opens up, the microenvironment of the aromatic amino acids changes, and the emitted fluorescence spectrum shifts. For purposes of this disclosure, Tm1 refers to the temperature at which fluorescence reaches half its maximum value.
[0866] "Tonset" is the denaturation onset temperature. It refers to the temperature at which the protein begins to denature, that is, the temperature at which the fluorescence value begins to change.
[0867] "Tagg" stands for aggregation onset temperature. Aggregates are detected by static light scattering at two wavelengths, 266 nm and 473 nm, to measure the temperature at which the sample begins to aggregate. Tagg 266 refers to the aggregation onset temperature measured at 266 nm.
[0868] The term "nucleic acid" is used interchangeably with the term "polynucleotide" in this article, and refers to deoxyribonucleotides or ribonucleotides and polymers thereof in single-stranded or double-stranded form. The term encompasses backbone residues or connected nucleic acids containing known nucleotide analogs or modifications, which are synthetic, naturally occurring, and non-naturally occurring, with binding properties similar to reference nucleic acids, and metabolized in a manner similar to reference nucleotides. The example of such analogs includes, but is not limited to, phosphorothioate, phosphoramidate, methylphosphonate, chiral-methylphosphonate, 2-O-methyl ribonucleotides, peptide-nucleic acids (PNAs). "Isolated" nucleic acid refers to a nucleic acid molecule separated from the component of its natural environment. Isolation nucleic acid is included in the nucleic acid molecule contained in the following cells, which cells typically contain the nucleic acid molecule, but the nucleic acid molecule is present in extrachromosomal or in a chromosomal position different from its natural chromosomal position. The nucleic acid encoding the separation of the antigen binding molecules refers to one or more nucleic acid molecules encoding antibody heavy and light chains (or its fragment), including such one or more nucleic acid molecules in a single vector or a separate vector, and such one or more nucleic acid molecules present in one or more positions in a host cell. Unless otherwise indicated, a particular nucleic acid sequence also implicitly encompasses conservatively modified variants thereof (e.g., degenerate codon substitutions) and complementary sequences as well as explicitly indicated sequences. Specifically, as described in detail below, degenerate codon substitutions can be obtained by generating sequences in which the third position of one or more selected (or all) codons is substituted with a degenerate base and / or deoxyinosine residue.
[0869] It should be understood that although no specific coding nucleotide sequence is provided in the present disclosure, a skilled person can determine the corresponding coding nucleotide sequence based on the amino acid sequence according to codon rules and host codon preferences.
[0870] The terms "polypeptide" and "protein" are used interchangeably herein to refer to a polymer of amino acid residues. The term applies to amino acid polymers in which one or more amino acid residues is an artificial chemical mimetic of a naturally occurring amino acid, as well as to naturally occurring amino acid polymers and non-naturally occurring amino acid polymers. Unless otherwise indicated, a particular polypeptide sequence also implicitly encompasses conservatively modified variants thereof.
[0871] The term sequence "identity" refers to the degree (percentage) at which the amino acid / nucleic acid of the two sequences are identical in the equivalent position when two sequences are optimally aligned. In the alignment process, it may be allowed, if necessary, to introduce a gap to obtain maximum sequence identity percentage, but any conservative substitution is not considered to constitute a part for sequence identity. For measuring sequence identity percentage, alignment can be achieved by techniques known in the art, for example, using publicly available computer software such as BLAST, BLAST-2, ALIGN, ALIGN-2 or Megalign (DNASTAR) software. Those skilled in the art can determine the parameters applicable to measuring alignment, including any algorithm required for maximum alignment, which is included in the full length of the sequence being compared.
[0872] The term "fused" or "linked" means that the components (eg, an antigen binding moiety and an Fc domain) are covalently linked directly or via a linker.
[0873] The term "vector" means a polynucleotide molecule capable of transporting another polynucleotide connected thereto. One type of vector is a "plasmid", which refers to a circular double-stranded DNA loop, wherein additional DNA segments can be connected. Another type of vector is a viral vector, such as an adeno-associated viral vector (AAV or AAV2), in which additional DNA segments can be connected to the viral genome. Certain vectors can replicate autonomously in the host cell in which they are introduced (for example, bacterial vectors and additional mammalian vectors with bacterial replication origins). Other vectors (for example, non-additional mammalian vectors) can be integrated into the genome of the host cell after being introduced into the host cell, thereby replicating together with the host genome. The term "expression vector" or "expression construct" refers to a vector suitable for transforming a host cell and containing a nucleic acid sequence for guiding and / or controlling (together with the host cell) the expression of one or more heterologous coding regions operably connected thereto. An expression construct can include but is not limited to affecting or controlling transcription, translation and affecting the sequence of RNA splicing of the coding region operably connected thereto when introns are present.
[0874] The terms "host cell", "host cell line", and "host cell culture" are used interchangeably and refer to cells into which exogenous nucleic acid has been introduced, including the progeny of such cells. Host cells include "transformants" and "transformed cells", which include the primary transformed cell and the progeny derived therefrom, without regard to the number of passages.
