Abstract
Description
[0001] This application is a divisional application of the patent application filed on March 8, 2019, with a priority date of March 9, 2018, application number 201980018301.8, entitled "Anti-CD73 Antibody and Method of Using Thereof".
[0002] Related applications
[0003] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 62 / 640,850, filed March 9, 2018, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0004] This disclosure relates to antibodies that specifically bind to CD73 (e.g., human CD73) and methods of using them. background
[0006] CD73, also known as extracellular 5'-nucleotidase, extracellular 5'-NT, 5'-NT, and NT5E, is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked cell surface enzyme. The enzymatic activity of CD73 catalyzes the hydrolysis of extracellular adenosine monophosphate (AMP) to adenosine. This activity, along with the activity of CD39 catalyzing the hydrolysis of extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to AMP, constitutes the major adenosine production system in the extracellular space. Adenosine is a ligand for many G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and is involved in immune escape, angiogenesis, and tumor motility. CD73 is widely expressed in many tissues and has been found to be upregulated in advanced primary and metastatic tumors. Animal model studies have shown that blocking CD73 activity with anti-CD73 antibodies can inhibit tumor growth and prolong survival by promoting anti-tumor adaptive immunity (Forte et al. (2012) J Immunol. 189(5):2226-33).
[0007] Transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) is a pleiotropic cytokine that is expressed at elevated levels in advanced primary and metastatic tumors and is involved in tumor cell proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis. TGFβ has also been shown to promote the expansion of immunosuppressive immune populations, such as regulatory T cells (Tregs) and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). See Wang et al. (2017) Front Immunol. 8:1934.
[0008] Given the significant roles of human CD73 and TGFβ in regulating the immune response to tumors, therapeutic agents designed to antagonize CD73 activity, or both CD73 activity and TGFβ signaling, hold great promise for cancer treatment. Overview

In some embodiments, the antibodies described herein refer to a population of polyclonal antibodies. Antibodies can be of any type (e.g., IgG, IgE, IgM, IgD, IgA, or IgY), any class (e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, or IgA2), or any subclass (e.g., IgG). 2a or IgG 2bThe antibody is an immunoglobulin molecule. In some embodiments, the antibody described herein is an IgG antibody or a class (e.g., human IgG1 or IgG4) or subclass. In one specific embodiment, the antibody is a humanized monoclonal antibody. In another specific embodiment, the antibody is a human monoclonal antibody. In some embodiments, the antibody as described herein comprises a full-length antibody (e.g., a full-length antibody that specifically binds to CD73) or an antigen-binding fragment thereof, which is linked to a ligand-binding moiety that specifically binds to molecules other than CD73 (e.g., a ligand-binding moiety that specifically binds to TGFβ or VEGF, such as a ligand-binding moiety containing one or more extracellular domains of a TGFβ receptor or VEGF receptor).
[0625] As used herein, the terms “VH region” and “VL region” refer to the variable regions of a single antibody heavy and light chains containing FR (framework regions) 1, 2, 3 and 4 and CDR (complementarity-determining regions) 1, 2 and 3, respectively (see Kabat et al., (1991) Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest (NIH Publication No. 91-3242, Bethesda), which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety).
[0626] As used herein, the term “CDR” or “complementarity-determining region” refers to a discontinuous antigen-binding site found within the variable region of both the heavy and light chain polypeptides. These specific regions have been described by the following: Kabat et al., J. Biol. Chem. 252, 6609-6616 (1977) and Kabat et al., Sequences of protein of immunological interest. (1991), Chothia et al., J. Mol. Biol. 196: 901-917 (1987) and MacCallum et al., J. Mol. Biol. 262: 732-745 (1996), all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety, wherein, when compared with each other, the definition includes overlap or subgroups of amino acid residues. In some embodiments, the term "CDR" is as defined by MacCallum et al., J. Mol. Biol. 262:732-745 (1996) and Martin A. "Protein Sequence and Structure Analysis of Antibody Variable Domains," in Antibody Engineering, Kontermann and Dübel, eds., Chapter 31, pp.422-439, Springer-Verlag, Berlin (2001). In some embodiments, the term "CDR" is as defined by Kabat et al., J. Biol. Chem. 252, 6609-6616 (1977) and Kabat et al., Sequences of protein of immunological interest. (1991). In some implementations, heavy chain CDRs and / or light chain CDRs are defined by performing structural analysis on the antibody and identifying residues in the variable region that are predicted to contact the epitope region of the target molecule (e.g., human and / or cynomolgus monkey CD73). CDRH1, CDRH2, and CDRH3 represent heavy chain CDRs, while CDRL1, CDRL2, and CDRL3 represent light chain CDRs.
[0627] As used herein, the term “framework (FR) amino acid residue” refers to those amino acids in the frame region of the antibody variable region. As used herein, the terms “frame region” or “FR region” include amino acid residues that are part of the variable region but not part of the CDR (e.g., as defined by Kabat or MacCallum using the CDR).
[0628] As used herein, the terms “variable region” and “variable domain” are used interchangeably and are common in the art. A variable region typically refers to a portion of an antibody, generally a portion of the light or heavy chain, typically about 110 to 120 or 110 to 125 amino acids from the amino terminus of the mature heavy chain and about 90 to 115 amino acids from the mature light chain, which varies considerably in sequence between antibodies and is used in the binding and specificity of a particular antibody to its specific antigen. Sequence variability is concentrated in those regions called complementarity-determining regions (CDRs), while more highly conserved regions within a variable domain are called frame regions (FRs). Without wishing to be bound by any particular mechanism or theory, it is believed that the CDRs of the light and heavy chains are primarily responsible for antibody-antigen interactions and specificity. In some embodiments, the variable region is a human variable region. In some embodiments, the variable region comprises a rodent or mouse CDR and a human frame region (FR). In certain embodiments, the variable region is a primate (e.g., a non-human primate) variable region. In some implementations, the variable region includes the rodent or mouse CDR and the primate (e.g., non-human primate) frame region (FR).
[0629] The terms “VL” and “VL domain” are used interchangeably to refer to the variable region of the light chain of an antibody.
[0630] The terms “VH” and “VH domain” are used interchangeably to refer to the variable region of the heavy chain of an antibody.
[0631] As used herein, the terms “constant region” and “constant domain” are interchangeable and common in the art. A constant region is an antibody portion that does not directly participate in antibody-antigen binding but can exhibit various effector functions, such as interaction with Fc receptors (e.g., Fcγ receptors), or the carboxyl-terminal portion of the light and / or heavy chains. The constant regions of immunoglobulin molecules typically have a more conserved amino acid sequence than the variable domains of immunoglobulins.
[0632] As used herein, the term “heavy chain” when used in relation to antibodies can refer to any different type of amino acid sequence based on a constant structural domain, such as alpha (α), delta (δ), epsilon (ε), gamma (γ), and mu (μ), which respectively produce the IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM classes of antibodies, including subclasses of IgG such as IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4.
[0633] As used herein, the term "light chain" when used in relation to an antibody can refer to any unique type of amino acid sequence based on a constant domain, such as kappa(κ) or lambda(λ). Light chain amino acid sequences are well known in the art. In a particular embodiment, the light chain is a human light chain.
[0634] As used herein, the term “EU numbering system” refers to the EU numbering convention for constant regions of antibodies as described in the following: Edelman, G.M. et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. USA, 63, 78-85 (1969) and Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, USDept. Health and Human Services, 5th edition, 1991, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
[0635] As used herein, the term "binding moiety" refers to a portion having the ability to specifically bind to a target molecule or complex. Binding moieties may comprise small molecules, peptides, modified peptides (e.g., peptides having non-natural amino acid residues and / or stapled peptides), polypeptides, proteins, antibodies, antibody fragments, scFvs, Fc-containing polypeptides, fusion antibodies, ligands, aptamers, nucleic acids, variants thereof, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the binding moiety comprises a domain of a native protein or a variant thereof, via which the native protein binds to the target molecule or complex. For example, the term "TGFβ binding moiety" refers to a portion that specifically binds to one or more proteins of the TGFβ family (e.g., TGFβ1, TGFβ2, or TGFβ3), and in some embodiments may comprise an extracellular domain of a TGFβ receptor (e.g., TGFβR1, TGFβR2, or TGFβR3). The term "VEGF binding moiety" refers to a portion that specifically binds to one or more proteins of the VEGF family (e.g., VEGF-A, VEGF-B, VEGF-C, or VEGF-D), and in some embodiments may include an extracellular domain of a VEGF receptor (e.g., VEGFR1, VEGFR2, or VEGFR3).
[0636] "Binding affinity" generally refers to the total strength of the 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, "binding affinity" as used herein refers to the endogenous binding affinity that reflects a 1:1 interaction between members of a binding pair (e.g., antibody and antigen). The affinity of molecule X for its partner Y can generally be expressed using the dissociation constant (K). D Affinity can be measured and / or represented in a variety of ways known in the art, including but not limited to the equilibrium dissociation constant (K). D ) and equilibrium association constant (K A K D It is k off / k on The quotient is calculated, and KA It is k on / k off The quotient is calculated. k on This refers to, for example, the association rate constant between an antibody and an antigen, and k off This refers to, for example, the dissociation rate constant between an antibody and an antigen. k on and k off This can be achieved using techniques known to those skilled in the art, such as... Or determine using KinExA. As used in this article, "lower affinity" refers to a larger K... D .
[0637] As used herein, the term “maximum binding” refers to the maximum signal (expressed in resonance units (RU) observed in the binding of an antigen (e.g., CD73 protein) to an antibody (e.g., anti-CD73 antibody) at a given concentration in a surface plasmon resonance binding assay (e.g., the surface plasmon resonance binding assay described in Section 6.5.2 of this document).
[0638] As used herein in the context of binding affinity, if, for example, in a given experiment or using the average of multiple experiments (as assessed by, for example, a binding affinity of the test antibody to the first antigen is reduced by at least 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, or 90% relative to the binding affinity of the test antibody to the second antigen, then the binding affinity of the test antibody to the first antigen is “significantly reduced” relative to the binding affinity of the test antibody to the second antigen. As used herein in the context of maximum binding, if, for example, in a given experiment or using the average of multiple experiments (as assessed by, for example, a binding affinity assay disclosed herein), the maximum binding between the test antibody and the first antigen is reduced by at least 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, or 90% relative to the maximum binding between the test antibody and the second antigen, then the maximum binding between the test antibody and the first antigen is “significantly reduced” relative to the maximum binding between the test antibody and the second antigen.
[0639] As used herein, the terms “specific binding,” “specific recognition,” “immunospecific binding,” and “immunospecific recognition” are similar terms in the context of antibodies and refer to molecules that bind to antigens (e.g., epitopes or immune complexes) in a manner that is strictly speaking understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. For example, molecules that specifically bind to antigens may bind to other peptides or polypeptides, typically with lower affinity, such as through methods like immunoassays. The assay is performed using a KinExA 3000 instrument (Sapidyne Instruments, Boise, ID) or other assays known in the art. In one specific embodiment, a molecule that specifically binds to an antigen is measured at K when the molecule nonspecifically binds to another antigen. A At least 2 log (i.e., a coefficient of 10), 2.5 log, 3 log, 4 log or greater K A Binding to antigens. Those skilled in the art will understand that antibodies as described herein can specifically bind to more than one antigen (e.g., via different regions of the antibody molecule). For example, antibodies as described herein can specifically bind to CD73 and TGFβ or specifically bind to CD73 and VEGF.
[0640] As used herein, the term "immunoglobulin chain" refers to a polypeptide or antigen-binding fragment of an antibody containing antibody VH or VL. An immunoglobulin chain may contain, for example, VH, VL, a full-length antibody heavy chain, a full-length antibody light chain, or an antigen-binding fragment of any of the foregoing.
[0641] As used herein, the term “linked to” refers to a covalent or non-covalent bond between two molecules or portions. Those skilled in the art will understand that when a first molecule or portion is linked to a second molecule or portion, the link need not be direct, but can be via an intermediate molecule or portion. For example, when the heavy chain variable region of a full-length antibody is linked to a ligand-binding moiety, the ligand-binding moiety can bind to the constant region of the full-length antibody (e.g., the heavy chain constant region) (e.g., via a peptide bond), rather than directly to the heavy chain variable region.
[0642] In another specific embodiment, the molecule specifically binding to the antigen does not cross-react with other proteins under similar binding conditions. In another specific embodiment, the molecule specifically binding to CD73 does not cross-react with other non-CD73 proteins. In one specific embodiment, this document provides an antibody that binds to CD73 (e.g., human CD73) with a higher affinity than that against another unrelated antigen. In some embodiments, this document provides an antibody that, as measured by, for example, radioimmunoassay, surface plasmon resonance, or dynamic exclusion assay, binds to CD73 (e.g., human CD73) with an affinity 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or higher than that binding to another unrelated antigen. In one specific implementation, the anti-CD73 antibody described herein binds to less than 10%, 15%, or 20% of the antibody binding to the CD73 protein, as measured by, for example, radioimmunoassay.
[0643] As used herein, "epitope" is a term in the art and refers to a localized antigenic region that can specifically bind to an antibody. An epitope can be, for example, a continuous amino acid of a polypeptide (linear or continuous epitope), or an epitope can be, for example, an aggregation of two or more discontinuous regions of one or more polypeptides (conformal, nonlinear, discontinuous, or noncontinuous epitopes). In some embodiments, the epitope to which the antibody binds can be determined by, for example, NMR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction crystallography, ELISA assays, hydrogen / deuterium exchange combined mass spectrometry (e.g., liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry), array-based oligopeptide scanning assays (e.g., using CLIPS (peptide chemically linked to the backbone) to locate discontinuous or conformational epitopes of restricted peptides), and / or mutagenic localization (e.g., site-directed mutagenic localization). In X-ray crystallography, crystallization can be achieved using any of the methods known in the art (e.g., Giegé R et al., (1994) Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr 50 (Pt4):339-350; McPherson A (1990) Eur J Biochem 189:1-23; Chayen NE (1997) Structure 5:1269-1274; McPherson A (1976) J Biol Chem 251:6300-6303, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). Antibody: Antigen crystals can be studied using well-known X-ray diffraction techniques and refined using computer software such as X-PLOR (Yale University, 1992, published by Molecular Simulations, Inc.; see, for example, Meth Enzymol (1985) volumes 114 & 115, eds. Wyckoff HW et al.; US2004 / 0014194) and BUSTER (Bricogne G (1993) Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr 49 (Pt 1): 37-60; Bricogne G (1997) Meth Enzymol 276A: 361-423, ed. Carter CW; Roversi P et al., (2000) Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr 56 (Pt 10): 1316-1323), each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Mutagenesis localization studies can be performed using any method known to those skilled in the art.For descriptions of mutagenesis techniques (including alanine scanning mutagenesis), see, for example, Champe M et al., (1995) J Biol Chem 270:1388-1394 and Cunningham BC & Wells JA (1989) Science 244:1081-1085, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. CLIPS (Chemical Linking of Peptides to Scaffolds) is a technique for presenting one or more peptides in a structurally restricted configuration to act as functional mimics of complex protein domains. See, for example, U.S. Publications US2008 / 0139407 A1 and US2007 / 099240 A1 and U.S. Patent No. 7,972,993, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. In one specific embodiment, alanine scanning mutagenesis studies are used to determine the epitopes of an antibody. In one specific embodiment, the epitopes of an antibody are determined using hydrogen / deuterium exchange combined mass spectrometry. In one specific implementation, the antibody epitope is determined using CLIPS epitope localization technology from Pepscan Therapeutics. In another specific implementation, the antibody epitope is determined by protein mutagenesis, for example by generating a transgenic mutant of the antigen with a portion of an ortholog of the antigen from another species and then testing for the loss of binding of the transgenic mutant to the antibody (e.g., by a cell binding assay based on FACS as described herein).
[0644] As used herein, the term "epitope located within a region of human CD73" refers to an epitope comprising one or more residues of the amino acid residues within the designated region. In some embodiments, the epitope comprises every single amino acid residue within the designated region. In some embodiments, the epitope consists of every single amino acid residue within the designated region. In some embodiments, one or more additional amino acid residues of human CD73 outside the designated region bind to the antibody along with the epitope located within the designated region.
[0645] As used herein, the terms “T cell receptor” and “TCR” are used interchangeably and refer to full-length heterodimeric αβ or γδ TCRs, antigen-binding fragments of full-length TCRs, and molecules containing TCR CDRs or variable regions. Examples of TCRs include, but are not limited to, full-length TCRs, antigen-binding fragments of full-length TCRs, soluble TCRs without transmembrane and cytoplasmic regions, single-chain TCRs containing variable regions of TCRs attached by flexible linkers, TCR chains linked by engineered disulfide bonds, monospecific TCRs, multispecific TCRs (including bispecific TCRs), TCR fusions, human TCRs, humanized TCRs, chimeric TCRs, recombinantly generated TCRs, and synthetic TCRs. The terms encompass wild-type TCRs and genetically engineered TCRs (e.g., chimeric TCRs containing chimeric TCR chains, which include a first portion of a TCR from a first species and a second portion of a TCR from a second species).
[0646] As used herein, the terms “major histocompatibility complex” and “MHC” are used interchangeably and refer to MHC class I molecules and / or MHC class II molecules.
[0647] As used herein, the term “peptide-MHC complex” refers to an MHC molecule (MHC class I or MHC class II) in a peptide-binding pocket recognized in the art, in which a peptide is bound to an MHC.
[0648] As used herein, the term “treatment” refers to the therapeutic or preventative measures described herein. A “treatment” method involves administering antibodies to a subject who has a disease or condition or is susceptible to such a disease or condition in order to prevent, cure, delay, reduce the severity of, or improve one or more symptoms of said disease or condition or recurrent disease or condition, or to prolong the subject’s survival beyond the expected survival without such treatment.
[0649] As used herein, the term "effective amount" in the context of administering a therapy to a subject refers to the amount of therapy that achieves the desired preventive or therapeutic effect.
[0650] As used herein, the term "subject" includes any human or non-human animal. In one embodiment, the subject is a human or non-human mammal. In another embodiment, the subject is a human.
[0651] The determination of the "percentage of similarity" between two sequences (e.g., amino acid sequences or nucleic acid sequences) can be achieved using mathematical algorithms. A specific, non-limiting example of a mathematical algorithm for comparing two sequences is the algorithm of Karlin S & Altschul SF (1990) PNAS 87:2264-2268, modified as in Karlin S & Altschul SF (1993) PNAS 90:5873-5877, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Such algorithms are incorporated in the NBLAST and XBLAST procedures of Altschul SF et al., (1990) J Mol Biol 215:403 (which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). BLAST nucleotide searches can be performed using the NBLAST nucleotide procedure parameter set, e.g., score = 100, word length = 12, to obtain nucleotide sequences homologous to the nucleic acid molecules described herein. BLAST protein searches can be performed using the XBLAST procedure parameter set, for example, a score of 50 and a word length of 3, to obtain amino acid sequences homologous to the protein molecules described herein. For comparison purposes, vacancy-based alignments can be used, as described in Altschul SF et al., (1997) Nuc Acids Res 25:3389-3402 (which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). Alternatively, PSI BLAST can be used for iterative searches that detect long-distance relationships between molecules (ibid.). When using BLAST, vacancy-based BLAST, and PSI BLAST procedures, the default parameters of the respective procedures (e.g., XBLAST and NBLAST) can be used (see, for example, the World Wide Web of the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). Another specific, non-limiting example of a mathematical algorithm for comparing sequences is the algorithm of Myers and Miller, 1988, CABIOS 4:11-17 (which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). Such algorithms are incorporated into the ALIGN program (version 2.0), which is part of the GCG sequence alignment software package. When comparing amino acid sequences using the ALIGN program, the PAM120 weighted residue table, vacancy length penalty 12, and vacancy penalty 4 can be used.
[0652] The percentage of consistency between two sequences can be determined using techniques similar to those described above, with or without gaps allowed. When calculating the percentage of consistency, typically only exact matches are counted.
[0653] As used herein, the term "lipid nanoparticle" refers to one or more spherical nanoparticles having an average diameter between about 10 and about 1000 nanometers and comprising a solid lipid core matrix capable of dissolving lipophilic molecules. In some embodiments, the lipid core is stabilized by a surfactant (e.g., an emulsifier) and may comprise one or more, including combinations thereof, of triglycerides (e.g., glyceryl tristearate), diglycerides (e.g., glycerol bahenate), monoglycerides (e.g., glyceryl monostearate), fatty acids (e.g., stearic acid), steroids (e.g., cholesterol), and waxes (e.g., hexadecyl palmitate). Lipid nanoparticles are described, for example, in Petrilli et al., Curr PharmBiotechnol. 15:847-55, 2014; and in U.S. Patent Nos. 6,217,912; 6,881,421; 7,402,573; 7,404,969; 7,550,441; 7,727,969; 8,003,621; 8,691,750; 8,871,509; 9,017,726; 9,173,853; 9,220,779; 9,227,917; and 9,278,130, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

[0702] In some embodiments, this disclosure provides isolated antibodies that specifically bind to CD73 (e.g., human, mouse, or cynomolgus monkey CD73), the antibodies comprising a VH domain including one, two, or all three CDRs of the VH domains listed in Table 1 herein. In some embodiments, the antibody comprises CDRH1 of the VH domains listed in Table 1. In some embodiments, the antibody comprises CDRH2 of the VH domains listed in Table 1. In some embodiments, the antibody comprises CDRH3 of the VH domains listed in Table 1.
[0703] In some embodiments, this disclosure provides isolated antibodies that specifically bind to CD73 (e.g., human, mouse, or cynomolgus monkey CD73), the antibodies comprising a VL domain including one, two, or all three CDRs of the VL domains listed in Table 1 herein. In some embodiments, the antibody comprises CDRL1 of the VL domains listed in Table 1. In some embodiments, the antibody comprises CDRL2 of the VL domains listed in Table 1. In some embodiments, the antibody comprises CDRL3 of the VL domains listed in Table 1.
[0704] In some embodiments, the CDR of the antibody can be determined according to Kabat et al., J. Biol. Chem. 252, 6609-6616 (1977) and Kabat et al., Sequences of protein of immunological interest (1991), each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. In some embodiments, the light chain CDR of the antibody is determined according to Kabat and the heavy chain CDR of the antibody is determined according to MacCallum (ibid.). In some embodiments, the heavy chain CDR and / or light chain CDR are defined by structural analysis of the antibody and identification of residues in the variable region predicted to contact the epitope region of the target molecule (e.g., human and / or cynomolgus monkey CD73).
[0705] In some implementations, the CDR of the antibody can be determined according to the Chothia numbering scheme, which refers to the location of the immunoglobulin structural loop (see, for example, Chothia C & Lesk AM, (1987), J Mol Biol 196:901-917; Al-Lazikani B et al., (1997) J Mol Biol 273:927-948; Chothia C et al., (1992) J Mol Biol 227:799-817; Tramontano A et al., (1990) J Mol Biol 215(1):175-82; and U.S. Patent No. 7,709,226, all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety). Typically, when using the Kabat numbering convention, the Chothia CDRH1 ring is located at positions 26 to 32, 33, or 34 of the heavy chain amino acids; the Chothia CDRH2 ring is located at positions 52 to 56 of the heavy chain amino acids; and the Chothia CDRH3 ring is located at positions 95 to 102 of the heavy chain amino acids. Conversely, the Chothia CDRL1 ring is located at positions 24 to 34 of the light chain amino acids; the Chothia CDRL2 ring is located at positions 50 to 56 of the light chain amino acids; and the Chothia CDRL3 ring is located at positions 89 to 97 of the light chain amino acids. When using the Kabat numbering convention, the end of the Chothia CDRH1 ring varies between H32 and H34 depending on the ring length (this is because the Kabat numbering scheme places insertions at H35A and H35B; if neither 35A nor 35B is present, the ring terminates at 32; if only 35A is present, the ring terminates at 33; and if both 35A and 35B are present, the ring terminates at 34).
[0706] In some implementations, the CDR of the antibody can be determined based on the determination of the antibody's CDR. MacCallum RM et al., (1996) J MolBiol 262:732-745, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. See also, for example, Martin A. “Protein Sequence and Structure Analysis of Antibody Variable Domains,” in Antibody Engineering, Kontermann and Dübel, eds., Chapter 31, pp.422-439, Springer-Verlag, Berlin (2001), which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

In some embodiments, the antibody that specifically binds to CD73 (e.g., human, mouse, or cynomolgus monkey CD73) comprises one or more CDRs, wherein the Chothia and Kabat CDRs have the same amino acid sequence. In some embodiments, this disclosure provides isolated antibodies that specifically bind to CD73 (e.g., human, mouse, or cynomolgus monkey CD73) and comprise a combination of Kabat CDR and Chothia CDR.
[0708] In some implementations, the CDR of the antibody can be determined according to the IMGT numbering system as described in Lefranc MP, (1999) The Immunologist 7:132-136 and Lefranc MP et al., (1999) Nucleic Acids Res 27:209-212, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. According to the IMGT numbering scheme, CDRH1 is at positions 26 to 35, CDRH2 at positions 51 to 57, CDRH3 at positions 93 to 102, CDRL1 at positions 27 to 32, CDRL2 at positions 50 to 52, and CDRL3 at positions 89 to 97. IMGT unique codes can also be defined as in Lefranc MP et al., (2009) Nucleic Acids Res 37:D1006-D1012 and in the IMGT database.

[0710] In some embodiments, the CDR of the antibody can be determined according to the AbM numbering scheme, which refers to the AbM hypervariable region, representing a trade-off between the Kabat CDR and the Chothia structural loop, and is used by the AbM antibody modeling software of Oxford Molecular (Oxford Molecular Group, Inc.) (which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). In one specific embodiment, this disclosure provides an antibody that specifically binds to CD73 (e.g., human, mouse, or cynomolgus monkey CD73) and comprises the CDR of the antibody disclosed herein as determined by the AbM numbering scheme.

For X-ray crystallography, crystallization can be performed using any method known in the art (e.g., Giegé R et al., (1994) Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr 50(Pt 4):339-350; McPherson A (1990) Eur J Biochem 189:1-23; Chayen NE (1997) Structure 5:1269-1274; McPherson A (1976) J Biol Chem 251:6300-6303, all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety).
[0760] Antibody: Antigen crystals can be studied using well-known X-ray diffraction techniques and refined using computer software such as X-PLOR (Yale University, 1992, Molecular Simulations, Inc.; see, for example, Meth Enzymol (1985) volumes 114 & 115, eds Wyckoff HW et al.; U.S. Patent Application No. 2004 / 0014194) and BUSTER (Bricogne G (1993) Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr 49 (Pt 1): 37-60; Bricogne G (1997) Meth Enzymol 276A: 361-423, ed Carter CW; Roversi P et al., (2000) Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr 56 (Pt 10): 1316-1323, all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety). Mutagenic localization studies can be performed using any method known to those skilled in the art. For descriptions of mutagenic techniques (including alanine scan mutagenesis), see, for example, Champe M et al., (1995) ibid. and Cunningham BC & Wells JA (1989) ibid. In one specific embodiment, alanine scan mutagenesis is used to determine the epitope of the antibody. Alternatively, conventional techniques such as immunoassays can be used to identify antibodies that recognize and bind to the same or overlapping CD73 (e.g., human, mouse, or cynomolgus monkey CD73) epitopes, for example by demonstrating the ability of one antibody to block the binding of another antibody to the target antigen, i.e., competitive binding assays. Competitive binding assays can also be used to determine whether two antibodies have similar binding specificity for an epitope. Competitive binding can be determined in assays where the immunoglobulin being tested inhibits the specific binding of a reference antibody to a common antigen such as CD73 (e.g., human, mouse, or cynomolgus monkey CD73).Many types of competitive binding assays are known, such as: solid-phase direct or indirect radioimmunoassay (RIA), solid-phase direct or indirect enzyme immunoassay (EIA), sandwich competitive assay (see Stahli C et al., (1983) Methods Enzymol 9:242-253); solid-phase direct biotin-avidin EIA (see Kirkland TN et al., (1986) J Immunol 137:3614-9); solid-phase direct labeling assay, solid-phase direct labeling sandwich assay (see Harlow E & Lane D, (1988) Antibodies: A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Press); solid-phase direct labeling RIA using I-125 label (see Morel G et al., (1988) Mol Immunol 25(1):7-15); solid-phase direct biotin-avidin EIA (see Cheung RC et al.). al. (1990) Virology 176:546-52); and directly labeled RIAs (see Moldenhauer, Get al. (1990) Scand J Immunol 32:77-82), all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. Typically, such assays involve the use of purified antigens (e.g., CD73, such as human, mouse, or cynomolgus monkey CD73) or cells carrying either, bound to a solid, unlabeled test immunoglobulin, and labeled reference immunoglobulin. Competitive inhibition can be measured by determining the amount of labeling bound to a solid surface or cell in the presence of the test immunoglobulin. Typically, an excess of the test immunoglobulin is present. Typically, when an excess of the competitive antibody is present, it will inhibit the specific binding of the reference antibody to the common antigen by at least 50-55%, 55-60%, 60-65%, 65-70%, 70-75%, or more. Competitive binding assays can be configured in a large number of different forms using labeled antigens or labeled antibodies. In the standard form of this assay, the antigen is immobilized on a 96-well plate. Radioactive or enzyme labeling is then used to measure the ability of the unlabeled antibody to block the binding of the labeled antibody to the antigen.For further details, see, for example, Wagener C et al., (1983) J Immunol 130:2308-2315; Wagener C et al., (1984) J Immunol Methods 68:269-274; Kuroki M et al., (1990) Cancer Res 50:4872-4879; Kuroki M et al., (1992) Immunol Invest 21:523-538; Kuroki M et al., (1992) Hybridoma 11:391-407 and Antibodies: A Laboratory Manual, Ed Harlow E & Lane D editors supra, pp.386-389, all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

[0765] In one specific embodiment, one, two, or more mutations (e.g., substitution, insertion, or deletion) are introduced into the constant domain of IgG or its FcRn-binding fragment (preferably an Fc or hinge-Fc domain fragment) to alter (e.g., reduce or increase) the half-life of the antibody in vivo. See, for example, International Publications WO 02 / 060919; WO 98 / 23289; and WO97 / 34631; and U.S. Patents 5,869,046, 6,121,022, 6,277,375, and 6,165,745, all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety, for example, mutations that alter (e.g., reduce or increase) the half-life of the antibody in vivo. In some embodiments, one, two, or more amino acid mutations (e.g., substitution, insertion, or deletion) are introduced into the constant domain of IgG or its FcRn-binding fragment (preferably an Fc or hinge-Fc domain fragment) to reduce the half-life of the antibody in vivo. In other embodiments, one, two, or more amino acid mutations (e.g., substitutions, insertions, or deletions) are introduced into the constant domain of IgG or its FcRn-binding fragment (preferably an Fc or hinge-Fc domain fragment) to increase the antibody's half-life in vivo. In one specific embodiment, the antibody may have one or more amino acid mutations (e.g., substitutions) in a second constant (CH2) domain (residues 231-340 of human IgG1) and / or a third constant (CH3) domain (residues 341-447 of human IgG1) (according to EU numbering system designations). In one specific embodiment, the constant region of IgG1 of the antibody described herein comprises a methionine (M) to tyrosine (Y) substitution at position 252, a serine (S) to threonine (T) substitution at position 254, and a threonine (T) to glutamate (E) substitution at position 256 (according to EU numbering system designations). See U.S. Patent No. 7,658,921, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. This type of mutant IgG (referred to as the “YTE mutant”) has been shown to exhibit a fourfold increase in half-life compared to the wild-type form of the same antibody (see Dall'Acqua WF et al., (2006) JBiol Chem 281:23514-24, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). In some embodiments, the antibody comprises a constant IgG domain (numbered according to the EU numbering system) containing one, two, three, or more amino acid substitutions at positions 251-257, 285-290, 308-314, 385-389, and 428-436.
[0766] In some embodiments, one, two, or more mutations (e.g., amino acid substitutions) are introduced into the Fc region of the antibody described herein (e.g., the CH2 domain (residues 231-340 of human IgG1) and / or the CH3 domain (residues 341-447 of human IgG1) and / or the hinge region (as numbered according to the EU numbering system) to increase or decrease the antibody's affinity for an Fc receptor (e.g., an activated Fc receptor) on the surface of an effector cell. Mutations in the Fc region of antibodies that decrease or increase the antibody's affinity for an Fc receptor, and techniques for introducing such mutations into the Fc receptor or fragments thereof, are known to those skilled in the art. Examples of mutations in the Fc receptor of antibodies that can alter the antibody's affinity for the Fc receptor are described, for example, in Smith P et al., (2012) PNAS 109:6181-6186, U.S. Patent No. 6,737,056, and International Publications WO 02 / 060919; WO 98 / 23289; and WO In 97 / 34631, the entirety of it is incorporated herein by reference.
[0767] In some embodiments, the antibody comprises a variant of the wild-type heavy chain constant region, wherein the variant heavy chain constant region binds FcγRIIB with a higher affinity than the wild-type heavy chain constant region. In some embodiments, the variant heavy chain constant region is a variant human heavy chain constant region, such as the variant human IgG1, variant human IgG2, or variant human IgG4 heavy chain constant region. In some embodiments, the variant human IgG heavy chain constant region comprises one or more of the following amino acid mutations (according to the EU numbering system): G236D, P238D, S239D, S267E, L328F, and L328E. In some embodiments, the constant region of the variant human IgG heavy chain contains a group of amino acid mutations selected from the group consisting of: S267E and L328F; P238D and L328E; P238D and one or more substitutions selected from the group consisting of: E233D, G237D, H268D, P271G and A330R; P238D, E233D, G237D, H268D, P271G and A330R; G236D and S267E; S239D and S267E; V262E, S267E and L328F; and V264E, S267E and L328F (according to the EU numbering system). In some embodiments, FcyRIIB is expressed on cells selected from the group consisting of: macrophages, monocytes, B cells, dendritic cells, endothelial cells and activated T cells.
[0768] In a further embodiment, one, two, or more amino acid substitutions are introduced into the Fc region of the IgG constant domain to alter the effector function of the antibody. For example, one or more amino acids selected from amino acid residues 234, 235, 236, 237, 239, 243, 267, 292, 297, 300, 318, 320, 322, 328, 330, 332, and 396 (according to the EU numbering system) can be substituted with different amino acid residues to give the antibody an altered affinity for the effector ligand, while retaining the antigen-binding ability of the parent antibody. The effector ligand altered to it can be, for example, an Fc receptor or the C1 component of complement. This method is described in more detail in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,624,821 and 5,648,260, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. In some embodiments, deletion or inactivation of the constant domain (through point mutation or other means) can reduce Fc receptor binding of circulating antibodies, thereby increasing tumor localization. For descriptions of mutations that result in the loss or deactivation of constant domains to enhance tumor localization, see, for example, U.S. Patent Nos. 5,585,097 and 8,591,886, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. In some embodiments, one or more amino acid substitutions may be introduced into the Fc region of the antibody described herein to remove potential glycosylation sites on the Fc region, which may reduce Fc receptor binding (see, for example, Shields RL et al., (2001) J Biol Chem 276:6591-604, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). In various implementations, one or more of the following mutations may be performed in the constant region of the antibody described herein: N297A substitution; N297Q substitution; L234A substitution; L234F substitution; L235A substitution; L235F substitution; L235V substitution; L237A substitution; S239D substitution; E233P substitution; L234V substitution; L235A substitution; C236 deletion; P238A substitution; S239D substitution; F243L substitution; D265A substitution; S267E substitution; L328F substitution; R292P substitution; Y300L substitution; A327Q substitution; P329A substitution; A332L substitution; I332E substitution; or P396L substitution (as per the EU numbering system).
