Description

[0001] This application claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 457,192, filed April 5, 2023, which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.

[0002] Throughout this application, various publications, patents, and / or patent applications have been cited. The disclosures of such publications, patents, and / or patent applications are hereby incorporated, in their entirety, by reference in order to more fully describe the current state of affairs in the fields covered by this disclosure. Technical Field

[0003] This disclosure relates to antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) including antibodies comprising Fc variants and methods for preparing the same. Methods for treating cancer using the ADCs described herein are also provided.

[0004] Background Technology and Summary of the Invention Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) allow for the targeted delivery of drugs to tumors, and in some embodiments, allow for intracellular accumulation within them. Systemic administration of unconjugated drugs can lead to unacceptable levels of toxicity to normal cells (Polakis P. (2005), Recent Pharmacological Perspectives). Current Opinion in Pharmacology (5:382-387). ADCs are targeted chemotherapy molecules that combine the properties of both antibodies and cytotoxic drugs by targeting tumor cells expressing antigens with an effective cytotoxic drug (Teicher, BA (2009) "Current Cancer Drug Targets"). Current Cancer Drug Targets ( )》 9:982-1004), thereby enhancing the therapeutic index by maximizing efficacy and minimizing off-target toxicity (Carter, PJ and Senter PD (2008) Journal of Cancer ( ) The Cancer Journal .)》 14(3):154-169; Chari, RV (2008) "Review of Chemical Research" Acc. Chem. Res .)》 41:98-107.

[0005] This disclosure provides an ADC comprising a monoclonal antibody including an Fc variant comprising two amino acid substitutions for L234A and L235A (also referred to herein as the “LALA mutation”), which is conjugated to a camptothecin derivative toxin or a duostatin derivative toxin via a linker moiety. The monoclonal antibody is an anti-CD25 antibody, an anti-B7-H3 antibody, an anti-ROR1 antibody, an anti-Trop-2 antibody, or an anti-BCMA antibody. In one embodiment, the anti-CD25 antibody binds to cancer cells expressing CD25 and allows selective uptake of the ADC into the cancer cells. In another embodiment, the anti-B7-H3 antibody binds to cancer cells expressing B7-H3 and allows selective uptake of the ADC into the cancer cells. In yet another embodiment, the anti-ROR1 antibody binds to cancer cells expressing ROR1 and allows selective uptake of the ADC into the cancer cells. In yet another embodiment, the anti-Trop-2 antibody binds to cancer cells expressing Trop-2 and allows selective uptake of the ADC into the cancer cells. In yet another embodiment, the anti-BCMA antibody binds to cancer cells expressing BCMA and allows selective uptake of the ADC by the cancer cells. In its implementation, the ADCs provided herein selectively deliver effective amounts of camptothecin derivative toxins or sarsaparilla toxin derivative toxins to tumor tissues and reduce nonspecific toxicity associated with the relevant ADCs. The ADC compounds described herein comprise compounds with anticancer activity.

[0006] Camptothecin (CPT) is a compound derived from the camptotheca tree (Camptotheca acuminata). Camptotheca acuminta Camptothecin is a cytotoxic quinoline alkaloid isolated from a tree (a tree that grows naturally in China). CPT was discovered in the 1960s (Wall ME et al., 1966, *Journal of the American Chemical Society* 88:3888-3890). The antitumor activity of camptothecin depends on highly specific inhibition of topoisomerase-1 (TOPO 1). The enzyme TOPO 1 cleaves one strand of double-stranded DNA, partially unwinding the DNA, and then re-annealing the strand to relieve stress. Camptothecin and its derivatives bind to the TOPO 1 / DNA complex to prevent re-annealing, which can lead to cell death due to the accumulation of partially cleaved DNA (Hsiang YH et al., 1985, *Journal of Biochemistry* 260:14873-14878).

[0007] The clinical application of camptothecin is limited by its low solubility and serious side effects (Joerger M. et al., 2015, Br. J. Clin. Pharmacol. 80:128-138; Joerger M. et al., 2015, Invest. New Drugs 33:472-479). To overcome these drawbacks, several camptothecin derivatives have been developed to date, including topotecan (9-dimethylamino-10-hydroxycamptothecin; TPT) and irinotecan (7-ethyl-10-[4-(1-piperidinyl)-1-piperidinyl]carbonyloxycamptothecin; CPT-11) (Naumczuk B et al., 2017, Magn. Reason. Chem. 55:128-136; Hamilton G et al., 2014, Molecules 19:2077-2088). The US Food and Drug Administration has approved these CPT derivatives for the treatment of ovarian and colon cancer (Vladu et al., 2000, Molecular Pharmacology 57:243-251; Chazin et al., 2014, Mini Rev. Med. Chem. 14:953-962).

[0008] Another camptothecin derivative is exatecan, a water-soluble derivative of camptothecin (US Patent Nos. 10,195,288 and 8,575,188). Unlike irinotecan currently used in clinical settings, enzymatic activation is unnecessary. Dxd is another useful camptothecin derivative. Many camptothecin drugs are widely used clinically, primarily for bone cancer, prostate cancer, breast cancer, gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer, esophageal cancer, and endometrial cancer (Iqbal et al., 2014, *Molecular Biology International* 2014). Camptothecin drugs have short plasma half-lives, and maintaining efficacy in clinical use requires increased doses or frequency of administration, which may lead to tolerability issues in patients.

[0009] Sea haretoxins, such as the natural product sea haretoxin 10 and its synthetic derivatives monomethylreoxetine E (MMAE) and monomethylreoxetine F (MMAF), are products that exhibit potent antitumor and microtubule-inhibiting properties. Due to their high toxicity, direct use of sea haretoxins as therapeutic agents is ineffective. Instead, they are conjugated with antibodies for targeted delivery to kill cancer cells.

On the other hand, this disclosure provides methods for preparing ADCs comprising monoclonal antibodies, said monoclonal antibodies comprising Fc variants, said Fc variants comprising two amino acid substitutions for L234A and L235A. Furthermore, this document provides methods for treating cancer using the ADCs disclosed herein.

Standard techniques can be used for chemical synthesis, chemical analysis, pharmaceutical formulation, formulation and delivery, and the treatment of patients.

[0024] The headings provided herein are not intended to limit any aspect of this disclosure, which may be understood by referring to this specification in its entirety.

[0025] Unless the context otherwise requires, singular terms shall include plural meaning, and plural terms shall include singular meaning. Unless explicitly and definitively limited to one indicator, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the,” and any word used in the singular, shall include multiple indicators.

[0026] It should be understood that the use of "alternative" (e.g., "or") in this document is intended to refer to any one or two or any combination of the alternatives.

[0027] As used herein, the term “and / or” is to be construed as meaning that each of the specified features or components is explicitly disclosed with or without the other. For example, the term “and / or” as used herein in phrases such as “A and / or B” is intended to include “A and B”, “A or B”, “A” (alone), and “B” (alone). Similarly, the term “and / or” as used in phrases such as “A, B, and / or C” is intended to cover each of the following: A, B, and C; A, B, or C; A or C; A or B; B or C; A and C; A and B; B and C; A (alone); B (alone); and C (alone).

[0028] As used herein, the term "about" refers to a value or composition within an acceptable margin of error for a specific value or composition, as determined by one of ordinary skill in the art, which will depend in part on how the value or composition is measured or determined, i.e., the limitations of the measurement system. For example, according to practice in the art, "about" or "approximately" may mean within one or more standard deviations. Alternatively, depending on the limitations of the measurement system, "about" or "approximately" may mean a range of up to 10% (i.e., ±10%) or more. For example, about 5 mg may include any number between 4.5 mg and 5.5 mg. Furthermore, specifically referring to a biological system or process, the term may mean up to an order of magnitude or up to 5 times the value. When specific values ​​or compositions are provided in this disclosure, unless otherwise stated, the meaning of "about" or "approximately" should be assumed to be within an acceptable margin of error for said specific value or composition. In embodiments, about includes a specified value. Numerical ranges include the endpoints of the range. For example, "between 4.5 mg and 5.5 mg" includes 4.5 mg, 5.5 mg, and all values ​​greater than 4.5 mg and less than 5.5 mg.

[0029] In this disclosure, terms such as “comprises,” “comprising,” “containing,” and “having” may have the meanings assigned to them under U.S. patent law and may refer to “includes,” “including,” etc. “consisting essentially of” or “consistsessentially” also has the meanings assigned to it under U.S. patent law, and this term is open-ended, allowing for elements beyond what is described, provided that the essential or novel features described are not altered by elements beyond what is described, but excluding prior art embodiments.

[0030] The terms “polypeptide,” “peptide,” and “protein,” as well as other related terms used herein, are used interchangeably to refer to polymers of amino acid residues, wherein, in embodiments, the polymer may be coupled to a portion not composed of amino acids. The term applies to amino acid polymers in which one or more amino acid residues are artificial chemical mimics of corresponding naturally occurring amino acids, as well as to both naturally occurring and non-naturally occurring amino acid polymers. “Fusion protein” refers to a chimeric protein encoding two or more separate protein sequences recombinantly expressed as a single part. Polypeptides include mature molecules that have undergone cleavage. These terms encompass natural and artificial proteins, polypeptide analogs of protein fragments and sequences (such as mutant proteins, variants, chimeric proteins, and fusion proteins), and proteins that are covalently or non-covalently modified post-translationally or otherwise. Two or more polypeptides (e.g., three polypeptide chains) may associate with each other covalently and / or non-covalently to form multimeric polypeptide complexes (e.g., multispecific antigen-binding protein complexes). Association of polypeptide chains may also include peptide folding. Thus, polypeptide complexes can be dimers, trimers, tetramers, or higher-order complexes, depending on the number of polypeptide chains forming the complex.

[0031] As used herein, the terms “cancer,” “vesicle,” and “tumor” are used interchangeably and in singular or plural forms to refer to cells that have undergone malignant transformation, which makes them pathological to the host organism. Primary cancer cells can be readily distinguished from non-cancer cells using well-established techniques, particularly histological examination. As used herein, the definition of cancer cells includes not only primary cancer cells but also any cells derived from cancer cell ancestors. This includes metastatic cancer cells, as well as in vitro cultures and cell lines derived from cancer cells. When referring to a type of cancer that typically presents as a solid tumor, a “clinically detectable” tumor is defined as a tumor that is detectable based on tumor quality; for example, by procedures such as computed tomography (CT) scans, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), X-rays, ultrasound, or physical examination palpation, and / or by the expression of one or more cancer-specific antigens in a sample obtainable from the patient. Tumors can be hematopoietic (or hematologic or hematological or blood-related) cancers, for example, cancers originating from blood cells or immune cells, which may be referred to as “liquid tumors.” Specific examples of clinical manifestations of hematologic malignancies include leukemia, such as chronic myeloid leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia; plasma cell malignancies, such as multiple myeloma, MGUS, and Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia; lymphomas, such as non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and Hodgkin's lymphoma; and so on.

[0032] The term “leukemia” broadly refers to a progressive malignant disease of the hematopoietic organs and is typically characterized by abnormal proliferation and development of leukocytes and their precursors in the blood and bone marrow. Leukemia is usually classified clinically based on the following: (1) the duration and characteristics of the acute or chronic disease; (2) the type of cells involved; myeloid, lymphoid, or monocytic; and (3) the increase or non-increase in the number of abnormal cells in the hematologic-leukemic or non-leukemic (subleukemic) form. Exemplary leukemias that can be treated with the compounds or methods provided herein include, for example, acute non-lymphocytic leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, chronic myeloid leukemia, acute promyelocytic leukemia, adult T-cell leukemia, aleukemic leukemia, leukocytic leukemia, basophilic leukemia, blastic leukemia, bovine leukemia, chronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous leukemia, embryonal leukemia, eosinophilic leukemia, Gross' leukemia, hairy cell leukemia, hemoblastic leukemia, and hemocytoblastic leukemia. Leukemia, histiocytic leukemia, stem cell leukemia, acute monocytic leukemia, leukopenic leukemia, lymphocytic leukemia, lymphoblastic leukemia, lymphocytic leukemia, lymphogenous leukemia, lymphoid leukemia, lymphosarcoma cell leukemia, mast cell leukemia, megakaryocytic leukemia, micromyeloblastic leukemia, monocytic leukemia, myeloid leukemia, myeloid granulocytic leukemia, myelomonocytic leukemia, Naegeli leukemia, plasma cell leukemia, multiple myeloma, plasma cell leukemia, promyelocytic leukemia, Rieder cell leukemia, Schilling's leukemia Leukemia, stem cell leukemia, subleukemic leukemia, and undifferentiated cell leukemia.

[0033] As used in this article, the term "lymphoma" refers to a group of cancers that affect hematopoietic and lymphatic tissues. It begins with lymphocytes, blood cells primarily found in lymph nodes, spleen, thymus, and bone marrow. The two main types of lymphoma are non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and Hodgkin's disease. Hodgkin's disease accounts for approximately 15% of all diagnosed lymphomas. This is a cancer associated with Reed-Sternberg malignant B lymphocytes. Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) can be classified based on the cancer's growth rate and the cell types involved. Aggressive (high-grade) and indolent (low-grade) types of NHL exist. Based on the cell types involved, there are B-cell and T-cell NHL. Exemplary B-cell lymphomas that can be treated with the compounds or methods provided herein include, but are not limited to, small lymphocytic lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma, extranodal (MALT) lymphoma, nodular (monocyte-like B-cell) lymphoma, splenic lymphoma, diffuse large cell B-cell lymphoma, Burkitt's lymphoma, lymphoblastic lymphoma, immunoblastic large cell lymphoma, or precursor B-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma. Exemplary T-cell lymphomas that can be treated with the compounds or methods provided herein include, but are not limited to, cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, peripheral T-cell lymphoma, pleomorphic large cell lymphoma, mycosis fungoides, and precursor T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma.

It begins with lymphocytes, blood cells primarily found in lymph nodes, spleen, thymus, and bone marrow. The two main types of lymphoma are non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and Hodgkin's disease. Hodgkin's disease accounts for approximately 15% of all diagnosed lymphomas. This is a cancer associated with Reed-Sternberg malignant B lymphocytes. Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) can be classified based on the cancer's growth rate and the cell types involved. Aggressive (high-grade) and indolent (low-grade) types of NHL exist. Based on the cell types involved, there are B-cell and T-cell NHL.

[0041] As used herein, the terms “metastasis,” “metastatic,” and “metastatic cancer” are used interchangeably and refer to the spread of a proliferative disease or condition (e.g., cancer) from one organ to another non-adjacent organ or part of the body. “Metastatic cancer” is also referred to as “stage IV cancer.” Cancer begins at a site of origin, such as the breast, which is called the primary tumor, such as primary breast cancer. Some cancer cells in the primary tumor or site of origin acquire the ability to penetrate and infiltrate the surrounding normal tissue in the local area and / or penetrate the walls of the lymphatic or vascular systems that circulate systemically to other parts and tissues in the body. A second, clinically detectable tumor formed from the cancer cells of the primary tumor is called a metastatic or secondary tumor. When cancer cells metastasize, it is presumed that the metastatic tumor and its cells resemble the primary tumor. Therefore, if lung cancer metastasizes to the breast, the secondary tumor at the breast site consists of abnormal lung cells rather than abnormal breast cells. The secondary tumor in the breast is called metastatic lung cancer. Therefore, the phrase metastatic cancer refers to a disease in which the subject has or has had a primary tumor and has developed one or more secondary tumors. The phrase "non-metastatic cancer" or "subject with non-metastatic cancer" refers to a subject who has a primary tumor but not one or more secondary tumors. For example, metastatic lung cancer refers to a subject who has a primary lung tumor or a history of a primary lung tumor and has one or more secondary tumors in a second location, such as the breast.

[0042] The term "cutaneous metastasis" or "skin metastasis" refers to the secondary growth of malignant cells in the skin, where the malignant cells originate from a site of primary cancer (e.g., breast cancer). In cutaneous metastasis, cancer cells from a site of primary cancer can migrate to the skin, where these cells divide and cause lesions. Cutaneous metastasis can be caused by cancer cells migrating from a breast cancer tumor to the skin.

[0043] The term "visceral metastasis" refers to the secondary malignant cell growth in visceral organs (e.g., heart, lungs, liver, pancreas, intestines) or body cavities (e.g., pleura, peritoneum), where the malignant cells originate from the site of the primary cancer (e.g., head and neck, liver, breast). In visceral metastasis, cancer cells from the site of the primary cancer can migrate to the skin, and within the visceral organ, these cells divide and cause lesions. Visceral metastasis can be caused by cancer cells migrating from liver cancer tumors or head and neck tumors to visceral organs.

[0044] In this implementation, the cancer is a metastatic cancer, a refractory cancer, or a recurrent cancer.

[0045] As used herein, “antibody” and “antibodies”, as well as related terms, refer to the complete immunoglobulin or its antigen-binding moiety that binds specifically to an antigen. The antigen-binding moiety can be generated by recombinant DNA technology or by enzymatic or chemical cleavage of the complete antibody. In particular, antigen-binding moieties include Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, Fv, domain antibodies (dAb) and complementarity-determining region (CDR) fragments, single-chain antibodies (scFv), chimeric antibodies, bifunctional antibodies, trifunctional antibodies, tetrafunctional antibodies, and polypeptides that include at least a portion sufficient to confer binding to a polypeptide-specific antigen.

[0046] Antibodies comprise recombinant antibodies and antigen-binding moieties. Antibodies include nonhuman antibodies, chimeric antibodies, humanized antibodies, and fully human antibodies. Antibodies include monospecific and multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific, trispecific, and higher-order specificities). Antibodies include tetrameric antibodies, light chain monomers, heavy chain monomers, light chain dimers, and heavy chain dimers. Antibodies include F(ab')2 fragments, Fab' fragments, and Fab fragments. Antibodies include single-domain antibodies, monovalent antibodies, single-chain antibodies, single-chain variable fragments (scFv), camelized antibodies, affinity antibodies, disulfide-linked Fv (sdFv), anti-idiotype antibodies (anti-Id), and microantibodies. Antibodies include monoclonal and polyclonal populations. This article describes anti-CD25 antibodies, anti-B7-H3 antibodies, anti-ROR1 antibodies, anti-Trop-2 antibodies, and anti-BCMA antibodies.

[0047] As used herein, the term "monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody obtained from a substantially homogeneous population of antibodies, meaning that individual antibodies comprising the population are identical and / or bind to the same epitopes, except for possible variant antibodies, such as those comprising naturally occurring mutations or those generated during the production of the monoclonal antibody formulation, which are typically present in small quantities. In contrast to polyclonal antibody formulations, which typically comprise different antibodies targeting different determinants (epitopes), each monoclonal antibody in a monoclonal antibody formulation targets a single determinant on the antigen. Therefore, the modifier "monoclonal" indicates that the antibody is characterized by being obtained from a substantially homogeneous population of antibodies and should not be construed as requiring the antibody to be produced by any particular method. For example, monoclonal antibodies to be used according to the invention can be prepared by a variety of techniques, including but not limited to hybridoma methods, recombinant DNA methods, phage display methods, and methods utilizing transgenic animals comprising all or part of human immunoglobulin loci, as described herein and other exemplary methods for preparing monoclonal antibodies.

[0048] As used herein, "epitope" and related terms refer to a portion of an antigen that binds via an antigen-binding protein (e.g., via an antibody or its antigen-binding portion). An epitope may include portions of two or more antigens that bind via an antigen-binding protein. An epitope may include discontinuous portions of one or two or more antigens (e.g., amino acid residues that are discontinuous in the primary sequence of the antigen but sufficiently close to each other in the context of the antigen's tertiary and quaternary structures to bind via an antigen-binding protein). Typically, the variable region of an antibody, specifically the CDR, interacts with the epitope. This article describes anti-CD25 antibodies that bind to the epitope of the CD25 peptide and their antigen-binding proteins. This article describes anti-B7-H3 antibodies that bind to the epitope of the B7-H3 peptide and their antigen-binding proteins. This article describes anti-ROR1 antibodies that bind to the epitope of the ROR1 peptide and their antigen-binding proteins. This article describes anti-Trop-2 antibodies that bind to the epitope of the Trop-2 peptide and their antigen-binding proteins. This article describes anti-BCMA antibodies that bind to the epitope of the BCMA peptide and their antigen-binding proteins.

[0049] As used herein, the terms “antibody fragment,” “antibody moiety,” “antigen-binding fragment of an antibody,” or “antigen-binding portion of an antibody,” and other related terms, refer to molecules that include, in addition to the intact antibody, a portion of the intact antibody that binds to the antigen bound by the intact antibody. Examples of antibody fragments include, but are not limited to, Fv, Fab, Fab', Fab'-SH, F(ab')2; Fd; and Fv fragments, as well as dAb; bifunctional antibodies; linear antibodies; single-chain antibody molecules (e.g., scFv); and polypeptides comprising at least a portion sufficient to confer binding to a polypeptide-specific antigen. Antigen-binding portions of antibodies can be generated by recombinant DNA technology or by enzymatic or chemical cleavage of the intact antibody. Antigen-binding portions particularly include Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, Fv, domain-specific antibodies (dAbs) and complementarity-determining region (CDR) fragments, chimeric antibodies, bifunctional antibodies, trifunctional antibodies, tetrafunctional antibodies, and polypeptides comprising at least a portion of an immunoglobulin sufficient to confer antigen-binding properties to the antibody fragment. This document describes an antigen-binding fragment of an anti-CD25 antibody. This document describes an antigen-binding fragment of an anti-B7-H3 antibody. This article describes the antigen-binding fragment of the anti-ROR1 antibody. This article describes the antigen-binding fragment of the anti-Trop-2 antibody. This article describes the antigen-binding fragment of the anti-BCMA antibody.

[0050] Antigen-binding proteins can have structures such as immunoglobulins. In one embodiment, "immunoglobulin" refers to a tetrameric molecule. Each tetrameric molecule consists of two pairs of identical polypeptide chains, each pair having a "light" chain (approximately 25 kDa) and a "heavy" chain (approximately 50-70 kDa). The N-terminus of each chain defines a variable region, having approximately 100 to 110 or more amino acids, primarily responsible for antigen recognition. The C-terminal portion of each chain defines a constant region, primarily responsible for effector function. Human light chains are classified as κ or λ light chains. Heavy chains are classified as μ, δ, γ, α, or ε, and antibody isotypes are defined as IgM, IgD, IgG, IgA, and IgE, respectively. Within the light and heavy chains, the variable and constant regions are linked by a "J" region having approximately 12 or more amino acids, wherein the heavy chain also includes a "D" region having approximately 10 or more amino acids. See Chapter 7 of *Basic Immunology* (Paul, W., ed., 2nd ed., Raven Press, New York (1989)) (the cited literature is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety for all purposes). The variable region of each light / heavy chain pair forms an antibody-binding site, resulting in a complete immunoglobulin having two antigen-binding sites. In one embodiment, the antigen-binding protein can be a synthetic molecule having a structure different from that of the tetrameric immunoglobulin molecule but still binding to a target antigen or to two or more target antigens. For example, synthetic antigen-binding proteins may include antibody fragments, 1-6 or more polypeptide chains, asymmetric combinations of polypeptides, or other synthetic molecules. The terms "variable heavy chain," "V," and "V" are used interchangeably. H "VH" or "variable region" refers to the variable region of the immunoglobulin heavy chain, including Fv, scFv, dsFv, or Fab; while the terms "variable light chain" and "VH" refer to the variable regions of the immunoglobulin heavy chain. L"VL" or "variable region" refers to the variable region of the immunoglobulin light chain, including Fv, scFv, dsFv, or Fab. "Variable region" or "variable domain" refers to the domain of the antibody heavy or light chain involved in antibody-antigen binding. The variable domains (VH and VL, respectively) of the heavy and light chains of natural antibodies typically have similar structures, with each domain comprising four conserved frame regions (FRs) and three hypervariable regions (HVRs). (See, for example, Kindt et al., Kuby Immunology, 6th ed., WH Freeman and Co., p. 91 (2007).) A single VH or VL domain can be sufficient to confer antigen-binding specificity. Furthermore, antibodies binding to a specific antigen can be isolated from antibodies that bind to the antigen to screen for complementary VL or VH domains, respectively, using the VH or VL domain. See, for example, Portolano et al., Journal of Immunology. 150:880-887 (1993); Clarkson et al., Nature 352:624-628 (1991). This article describes antigen-binding proteins with immunoglobulin-like properties that specifically bind to CD25, B7-H3, ROR1, Trop-2, or BCMA.

[0051] Examples of antibody functional fragments include, but are not limited to, intact antibody molecules, antibody fragments such as Fv, single-chain Fv (scFv), complementarity-determining regions (CDRs), VL (light chain variable regions), VH (heavy chain variable regions), Fab, F(ab)2', and any combination thereof, or any other functional portion of an immunoglobulin peptide capable of binding to a target antigen (see, for example, *Basic Immunology* (edited by Paul, 4th edition, 2001)). As will be understood by those skilled in the art, various antibody fragments can be obtained through a variety of methods, such as digesting intact antibodies with an enzyme (e.g., pepsin); or synthesizing them de novo. Antibody fragments are typically synthesized de novo using chemical methods or recombinant DNA methods. Therefore, as used herein, the term antibody includes antibody fragments generated by modifying intact antibodies, or antibody fragments synthesized de novo using recombinant DNA methods (e.g., single-chain Fv), or antibody fragments identified using phage display libraries (see, for example, McCafferty et al., (1990) *Nature*). 348:552). The term "antibody" also includes bivalent or bispecific molecules, bifunctional antibodies, trifunctional antibodies, and tetrafunctional antibodies. Bivalent and bispecific molecules are described in the following literature: e.g., Kostelny et al. (1992) Journal of Immunology 148:1547; Pack and Pluckthun (1992) Biochemistry ( Biochemistry)》 31:1579; Hollinger et al. (1993), Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America (PNAS) PNAS. USA )》 90:6444; Zuckermann et al. (1994) Journal of Immunology 152:5368; Zhu et al.

(1995) Protein Engineering ( Protein Eng .)》 8:301.

[0052] As used herein, the terms “antigen-binding protein,” “antigen-binding domain,” “antigen-binding region,” or “antigen-binding site,” and related terms, refer to a protein comprising a portion that binds to an antigen, and optionally a scaffold or framework portion that adopts a conformation that facilitates the binding of the antigen-binding protein to the antigen. Examples of antigen-binding proteins include antibodies, antibody fragments (e.g., the antigen-binding portion of an antibody), antibody derivatives, and antibody analogs. Antigen-binding proteins may include, for example, alternative protein scaffolds or artificial scaffolds having a transplanted CDR or a CDR derivative. Such scaffolds include, but are not limited to, antibody-derived scaffolds comprising, for example, introducing mutations to stabilize the three-dimensional structure of the antigen-binding protein, and fully synthetic scaffolds comprising, for example, biocompatible polymers. See, for example, Korndorfer et al., 2003, Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Vol. 53, No. 1: 121-129; Roque et al., 2004, Biotechnol. Prog. 20: 639-654. Alternatively, peptide antibody mimics (“PAMs”) and scaffolds based on antibody mimics utilizing fibronectin components as a scaffold can be used. This article describes antigen-binding proteins that bind to CD25, B7-H3, ROR1, Trop-2, or BCMA.

[0053] In one implementation, the dissociation constant (K) DThis can be measured using BIACORE surface plasmon resonance (SPR) assays. Surface plasmon resonance refers to the optical phenomena that allow for the analysis of real-time interactions by detecting changes in protein concentration within a biosensor matrix, for example, using the BIACORE system (Biacore Life Sciences division of GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ).

[0054] As used throughout this application with respect to CD25, B7-H3, ROR1, Trop-2, or BCMA antigen-binding proteins, "specific binding" means that the antigen-binding protein binds to human CD25 (hCD25), B7-H3 (hB7-H3), ROR1 (hROR1), Trop-2 (hTrop-2), or BCMA (hBCMA), respectively, but not to other human proteins or binds only minimally. However, this terminology does not preclude the fact that the antigen-binding proteins of the present invention may also be cross-reactive with other forms of CD25, B7-H3, ROR1, Trop-2, or BCMA (e.g., primate CD25, B7-H3, ROR1, Trop-2, or BCMA). In one embodiment, if the antibody is at 10... -5 M or smaller, or 10 -6 M or smaller, or 10 -7 M or smaller, or 10 -8 M or smaller, or 10 -9 M or smaller or 10 -10 M or a smaller dissociation constant K D When an antibody binds to an antigen, it specifically binds to the target antigen.

[0055] As used herein, the term "Fc" or "Fc region" refers to a portion of the constant region of an antibody heavy chain that begins in or after the hinge region and ends at the C-terminus of the heavy chain. The Fc region includes at least a portion of the CH and CH3 regions and may or may not include a portion of the hinge region. Two polypeptide chains, each carrying a half-Fc region, may dimerize to form the Fc region. The Fc region can bind to Fc cell surface receptors and some proteins of the immune complement system. The Fc region exhibits effector functions, including any one activity or any combination of two or more activities, including complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), antibody-dependent phagocytosis (ADP), opsonization, and / or cell binding. The Fc region can bind to Fc receptors, including FcγRI (e.g., CD64), FcγRII (e.g., CD32), and / or FcγRIII (e.g., CD16a). In embodiments, the Fc region may include mutations that increase or decrease any one or any combination of these functions (e.g., an effector-negative Fc region).

[0056] In embodiments, the antigen-binding protein is an IgG, IgA, IgD, IgE, or IgM antibody having one or more mutations in its Fc region (e.g., one or more mutations that reduce antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) and / or one or more mutations that increase antibody half-life). Mutations that reduce or eliminate the interaction of the Fc region of such antibodies with their receptors (e.g., FcγR) on cells can reduce or eliminate ADE. For example, the antigen-binding protein provided herein may be an IgG1 or IgG4 antibody having an ADE-reducing mutation in its Fc region (such as the LALA mutation), or it may be a single-chain antibody (ScFv) optionally including an ADE-reducing mutation, such as the LALA mutation (the leucine residues at positions 234 and 235 in the EU index shown in Kabat are mutated to alanine residues). In other embodiments, the antigen-binding protein provided herein may be a Fab, Fab', or F(ab')2 antibody fragment.

[0057] This disclosure provides an ADC comprising a monoclonal antibody, said monoclonal antibody including an Fc region mutation (LA mutation) selected from L234A and L235A. In embodiments, the mutation in the Fc region may include mutations in both L234A and L235A (LALA). In embodiments, the mutation in the Fc region is an LA mutation or two LALA mutations. In embodiments, the LALA mutation in the Fc region reduces the effector function of the monoclonal antibody compared to a monoclonal antibody without an LALA mutation in the Fc region.

[0066] The terms "anti-ROR1 antibody" and "ROR1-binding antibody" refer to antibodies capable of binding to ROR1 with sufficient affinity, making the antibody useful as a therapeutic agent targeting ROR1. In one embodiment, the anti-ROR1 antibody binds to less than about 10% of the antibody's binding to ROR1, as measured, for example, by radioimmunoassay (RIA).

[0068] The terms "anti-BCMA antibody" and "BCMA-binding antibody" refer to antibodies capable of binding to BCMA with sufficient affinity such that the antibody can be used as a therapeutic agent in targeting BCMA. In one embodiment, the anti-BCMA antibody binds to less than about 10% of the unrelated non-BCMA protein, as measured, for example, by radioimmunoassay (RIA).

[0069] As used herein, the term "chimeric antibody" and related terms refer to an antibody comprising one or more regions from a first antibody and one or more regions from one or more other antibodies. In one embodiment, one or more CDRs are derived from a human antibody. In another embodiment, all CDRs are derived from a human antibody. In yet another embodiment, CDRs from more than one human antibody are mixed and matched in the chimeric antibody. For example, the chimeric antibody may include CDR1 from the light chain of a first human antibody, CDR2 and CDR3 from the light chain of a second human antibody, and CDRs from the heavy chain of a third antibody. In another instance, the CDRs are derived from different species, such as humans and mice, or humans and rabbits, or humans and goats. Those skilled in the art will understand that other combinations are possible.

[0070] Additionally, the framework region may originate from one of the same antibodies, from one or more different antibodies such as a human antibody, or from a humanized antibody. In one example of a chimeric antibody, a portion of the heavy and / or light chain is identical, homologous, or derived from an antibody of a specific species or belonging to a specific antibody class or subclass, while the remainder of the chain is identical, homologous, or derived from an antibody of another species or belonging to another antibody class or subclass. Fragments of such antibodies exhibiting the desired biological activity (i.e., the ability to specifically bind to a target antigen) are also included. Chimeric antibodies can be prepared from portions of any of the anti-CD25, anti-B7-H3, anti-ROR1, anti-Trop-2, or anti-BCMA antibodies described herein.

[0071] "Effective functions" are those biological activities attributable to the Fc region of an antibody that vary with antibody isotype. Examples of antibody effector functions include: C1q binding and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC); Fc receptor binding; antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC); phagocytosis; downregulation of cell surface receptors (e.g., B cell receptors); and B cell activation.

[0072] As used herein, the term "variant" polypeptide and "variant" of a polypeptide refers to a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence having one or more amino acid residues inserted, deleted, and / or substituted into an amino acid sequence relative to a reference polypeptide sequence. Polypeptide variants include fusion proteins. In the same manner, variant polynucleotides comprise a nucleotide sequence having one or more nucleotides inserted, deleted, and / or substituted into a nucleotide sequence relative to another polynucleotide sequence. Polynucleotide variants include fusion polynucleotides.

[0073] As used herein, the term "derivative" of a polypeptide is a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) that has been chemically modified, for example, by coupling, phosphorylation, and glycosylation with another chemical moiety such as polyethylene glycol, albumin (e.g., human serum albumin). Unless otherwise indicated, the term "antibody" includes its derivatives, variants, fragments, and mutant proteins, in addition to antibodies comprising two full-length heavy chains and two full-length light chains, examples of which are described below.

[0074] The term "hinge" refers to an amino acid segment typically found between two domains of a protein, which imparts flexibility to the entire structure and allows one or both domains to move relative to each other. Structurally, the hinge region comprises about 10 to about 100 amino acids, such as about 15 to about 75 amino acids, about 20 to about 50 amino acids, or about 30 to about 60 amino acids. In embodiments, the length of the hinge region is 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, or 100 amino acids. The hinge region may be derived from the hinge region of a naturally occurring protein (such as the CD8 hinge region or a fragment thereof, the CD8α hinge region or a fragment thereof), the hinge region of an antibody (e.g., IgG, IgA, IgM, IgE, or IgD antibody), or the hinge region connecting the constant structural domains CH1 and CH2 of an antibody. The hinge region may be derived from an antibody and may or may not include one or more constant regions of the antibody, or the hinge region may include the hinge region of the antibody and the CH3 constant region of the antibody, or the hinge region may include the hinge region of the antibody and the CH2 and CH3 constant regions of the antibody, or the hinge region may be a non-naturally occurring peptide, or the hinge region may be located between the C-terminus of the scFv and the N-terminus of the transmembrane structural domain. In one embodiment, the hinge region includes any one region or any combination of two or more regions, said region including an upper hinge sequence, a core hinge sequence, or a lower hinge sequence from an IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, or IgG4 immunoglobulin molecule. In one embodiment, the hinge region includes the IgG1 hinge sequence EPKSCDKTHT (SEQ ID NO: 108). In another embodiment, the hinge region includes the IgG1 core hinge sequence CP.

In one embodiment, the hinge region includes one, two, three, or more cysteine ​​residues that can form at least one, two, three, or more interchain disulfide bonds.

[0075] As used herein, the term "labeled antibody" or related terms refer to a labeled antibody or antibody linked to a detectable label or portion for detection, and its antigen-binding portion thereof, wherein the detectable label or portion is radioactive, colorimetric, antigenic, enzymatic, detectable beads (such as magnetic or electron-dense (e.g., gold) beads), biotin, streptavidin, or protein A. A variety of labels may be used, including but not limited to radionuclides, fluorescent agents, enzymes, enzyme substrates, enzyme cofactors, enzyme inhibitors, and ligands (e.g., biotin, haptens). Any anti-B7-H3 antibodies, antigen-binding proteins, and antibody fragments described herein may be unlabeled or may be linked to a detectable label or portion.

[0076] "Humanized antibody" refers to an antibody having a sequence that differs from that of an antibody derived from a non-human species through substitution, deletion, and / or addition of one or more amino acids, such that, compared to a non-human species antibody, the humanized antibody is less likely to induce an immune response and / or induce a less severe immune response when administered to a human subject. In one embodiment, certain amino acids in the framework and constant domains of the heavy and / or light chains of the non-human species antibody are mutated to produce a humanized antibody. In another embodiment, a constant domain from a human antibody is fused with a variable domain from a non-human species. In yet another embodiment, one or more amino acid residues in one or more CDR sequences of a non-human antibody are altered to reduce the potential immunogenicity of the non-human antibody when administered to a human subject, wherein the altered amino acid residues are not critical for the immune-specific binding of the antibody to its antigen, or the alteration to the amino acid sequence is a conserved alteration such that the binding of the humanized antibody to the antigen is not significantly worse than that of the non-human antibody to the antigen. Examples of how to prepare humanized antibodies can be found in U.S. Patents 6,054,297, 5,886,152 and 5,877,293.

[0077] The term "human antibody" refers to an antibody having one or more variable and constant regions derived from a human immunoglobulin sequence. In one embodiment, all variable and constant domains are derived from a human immunoglobulin sequence (e.g., a fully human antibody). These antibodies can be prepared in various ways, examples of which are described below, including by recombinant methods or by immunization with a mouse antigen of interest, said antigen of interest being genetically modified to express an antibody derived from a human heavy chain and / or light chain encoding gene. Fully human anti-CD25 antibodies, anti-B7-H3 antibodies, anti-ROR1 antibodies, anti-Trop-2 antibodies, and anti-BCMA antibodies, as well as their antigen-binding proteins, are described herein. This definition of a human antibody explicitly excludes humanized antibodies that include non-human antigen-binding residues.

[0078] The term "isolated" means "artificially" altered in its natural state, or changed or removed from its original environment, or both. When the term "isolated" is applied to nucleic acids or proteins, it means that the nucleic acid or protein is substantially free of other cellular components associated with it in its natural state. It may be, for example, in a homogeneous state and may be in a dry state or in an aqueous solution. Purity and homogeneity are typically determined using analytical chemistry techniques such as polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, high-performance liquid chromatography, or mass spectrometry. Proteins that are the dominant species present in a formulation are substantially purified. For example, polynucleotides or polypeptides naturally present in living organisms are not "isolated," but the same polynucleotides or polypeptides isolated from their native coexisting substances are "isolated," including but not limited to when such polynucleotides or polypeptides are reintroduced into cells, even if the cells are of the same species or type as the cells from which the polynucleotides or polypeptides were isolated.

[0079] “CDR” is defined as the complementarity-determining region (CDR) amino acid sequence of an antibody, which is a hypervariable domain of the heavy and light chains of an immunoglobulin. Three heavy chain and three light chain CDRs (or CDR regions) exist in the variable portion of an immunoglobulin. Therefore, as used herein, “CDR” can refer to all three heavy chain CDRs or all three light chain CDRs (if appropriate, or both).

[0080] CDRs provide most of the contact residues for antibody-antigen or epitope binding. The CDRs of interest in this invention are derived from the variable heavy and light chain sequences of the donor antibody and include analogs of naturally occurring CDRs that also share or retain the same antigen-binding specificity and / or neutralizing capacity as the donor antibody from which they are derived.

[0081] The CDR sequence of an antibody can be determined using the Kabat numbering system (Kabat et al.; Sequences of proteins of Immunological Interest, NIH, 1987); alternatively, the sequence can be determined using the Chothia numbering system (Al-Lazikani et al., (1997) Journal of Molecular Biology (JMB) 273, 927-948), the contact definition method (MacCallum RM, and Martin ACR and Thornton J. M, (1996) Journal of Molecular Biology, 262(5), 732-745) or any other established method known to those skilled in the art for numbering residues in antibodies and determining CDRs.

[0082] Other numbering conventions for CDR sequences available to technicians include the "AbM" (University of Bath) and "Contact" (University College London) methods. The minimum overlapping area can be determined using at least two of the Kabat, Chothia, AbM, and Contact methods to provide a "minimum binding unit." The minimum binding unit can be a sub-part of the CDR.

[0083] "Affinity" refers to the strength of the sum 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 the intrinsic 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 typically be represented by the dissociation constant (Kd). Affinity can be measured by common methods known in the art, including those described herein. Specific illustrative and exemplary embodiments for measuring binding affinity are described below.

[0084] "Affinity-mature" antibodies are those that have one or more alterations in one or more hypervariable regions (HVRs) compared to parental antibodies that do not have such alterations, resulting in improved antibody affinity for antigens.

[0085] As used herein, the term "domain" refers to a folded protein structure having a tertiary structure independent of the rest of the protein. Typically, domains are responsible for discrete functional properties of a protein and, in many cases, can be added to, removed from, or transferred to other proteins without loss of the remaining protein and / or the domain's function. "Antibody single variable domain" is a folded polypeptide domain that includes the sequence characteristics of an antibody variable domain. The term therefore includes fully variable antibody domains and modified variable domains, such as those in which one or more loops have been replaced (which is not a characteristic of antibody variable domains), or antibody variable domains that have been truncated or include N-terminal or C-terminal extensions, as well as folded fragments of variable domains that at least retain the binding activity and specificity of the full-length domain.

[0086] As used herein, the term "cytotoxic agent" refers to a substance that inhibits or prevents cell function and / or causes cell death or destruction. Cytotoxic agents include, but are not limited to, radioactive isotopes (e.g., 211 At、 131 I, 125 I, 90 Y、 186 Re、 188 Re、 153 Sm、 212 Bi、 32 P, 212 Radioactive isotopes of Pb and Lu; chemotherapeutic agents or drugs (e.g., methotrexate, doxorubicin, vinblastine alkaloids (vincristine, vinblastine, etoposide), doxorubicin, melphalan, mitomycin C, chlorambucil, daunorubicin or other intercalating agents); growth inhibitors; enzymes and their fragments, such as nucleolysins; antibiotics; toxins, such as small molecule toxins or enzymatically active toxins of bacterial, fungal, plant or animal origin, including their fragments and / or variants; and the various antitumor or anticancer agents disclosed below.

[0088] "Antibody-drug conjugate" or "ADC" is an antibody conjugated to one or more heterologous molecules (including but not limited to cytotoxic agents).

[0089] As used herein, the term "coupled" when referring to two parts means that the two parts are bonded together, wherein the bond connecting the two parts can be covalent or non-covalent. In embodiments, the two parts are covalently bonded to each other (e.g., directly or through a covalently bonded intermediate). In embodiments, the two parts are non-covalently bonded (e.g., through ionic bonds, van der Waals bonds / interactions, hydrogen bonds, polar bonds, or combinations or mixtures thereof).

[0090] "Individual" or "subject" is a mammal. Mammals include, but are not limited to, domesticated animals (e.g., cattle, sheep, cats, dogs, and horses), primates (e.g., human and non-human primates such as monkeys), rabbits, and rodents (e.g., mice and rats). In some embodiments, the individual or subject is a person. In some embodiments, the subject is an adult, adolescent, child, or infant. In some embodiments, the terms "individual" or "patient" are used and are intended to be used interchangeably with "subject."

[0091] The "percentage of amino acid sequence identity (%)" relative to a reference polypeptide sequence is defined as the percentage of amino acid residues in the candidate sequence that are identical to those in the reference polypeptide sequence after sequence alignment and the introduction of vacancies (if necessary) to achieve the maximum percentage of sequence identity. Sequence alignment for determining the percentage of amino acid sequence identity can be performed in a variety of ways within the scope of the art, for example, by means of the local homology algorithm of Smith and Waterman, 1981, Advances in Applied Mathematics (Ads App. Math.) 2, 482; by means of the local homology algorithm of Needleman and Wunsch, 1970, Journal of Molecular Biology 48, 443; by means of the similarity search algorithm of Pearson and Lipman, 1988, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 88, 2444; or by means of computer programs using said algorithms (e.g., EMBOSS Needle or EMBOSS Water, available at www.ebi.ac.uk / Tools / psa / ). Those skilled in the art can determine the appropriate parameters for sequence alignment, including any algorithm required to achieve maximum alignment across the full length of the sequences being compared. As used herein, “sequence identity percentage” or “[sequence] identity percentage (%)” is determined by comparing two optimally locally aligned sequences over a comparison window defined by the local alignment length between the two sequences. (This can also be considered as a percentage of homology or “percentage of homology (%)”.) The amino acid sequence in the comparison window may include additions or deletions (e.g., vacancies or overhangs) for optimal alignment of the two sequences compared to a reference sequence. Local alignment between two sequences includes only segments of each sequence deemed sufficiently similar according to criteria depending on the algorithm used for the alignment (e.g., EMBOSS Water). "Identical" or "percentage of identity" means that two or more sequences or subsequences are identical or have the same specified percentage of amino acid residues or nucleotides (i.e., approximately 60% identity within a specified region when performing maximum correspondence comparisons and alignments within a comparison window or specified region, preferably 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, or higher). Percentage identity is calculated by determining the number of positions in the two sequences where the same nucleic acid bases or amino acid residues appear to generate a number of matching positions, dividing the number of matching positions by the total number of positions in the comparison window, and multiplying the result by 100.The optimal alignment of sequences for comparison can be determined using: Smith and Waterman's local homology algorithm (Advances in Applied Mathematics 2:482, 1981), Needleman and Wunsch's global homology alignment algorithm (Journal of Molecular Biology 48:443, 1970), Pearson and Lipman's similarity search method (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 85:2444, 1988), or by inspection. As another example, GAP and BESTFIT can be used to determine the optimal alignment of two sequences that have been identified for comparison. Typically, a default value of 5.00 is used for the gap weight and a default value of 0.30 for the gap weight length.

[0092] Sequence comparisons and the determination of the percentage of identity between two polypeptide sequences or two polynucleotide sequences can be accomplished using mathematical algorithms. For example, the “percentage of identity” or “percentage of homology” between two polypeptide or two polynucleotide sequences can be determined by comparing sequences using the GAP computer program (GCG Wisconsin Package, version 10.3, Accelrys, San Diego, California) with its default parameters. Expressions such as “includes a sequence having at least X% identity with Y” regarding the test sequence mean that when aligned with sequence Y as described above, the test sequence includes at least X% of the residues identical to those in Y.

[0093] In one embodiment, the amino acid sequence of the test antibody may be similar to, but not identical to, any amino acid sequence of a polypeptide constituting the multispecific antigen-binding protein complex described herein. The similarity between the test antibody and the polypeptide may be at least 95%, or at least 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identical to any polypeptide constituting the multispecific antigen-binding protein complex described herein. In one embodiment, the similar polypeptide may include amino acid substitutions within the heavy chain and / or light chain. In one embodiment, amino acid substitutions include one or more conserved amino acid substitutions. A “conserved amino acid substitution” is an amino acid substitution in which an amino acid residue is replaced by another amino acid residue having a side chain (R group) having similar chemical properties (e.g., charge or hydrophobicity). Generally, conserved amino acid substitutions do not substantially alter the functional properties of the protein. Where two or more amino acid sequences differ from each other due to conserved substitutions, the percentage of sequence identity or degree of similarity may be adjusted upwards to correct the conservatism of the substitution. Methods for making such adjustments are well known to those skilled in the art. See, for example, Pearson (1994) Methods in Molecular Biology 24: 307-331, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Examples of amino acid groups with side chains having similar chemical properties include: (1) aliphatic side chains: glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, and isoleucine; (2) aliphatic-hydroxy side chains: serine and threonine; (3) amide-containing side chains: asparagine and glutamine; (4) aromatic side chains: phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan; (5) basic side chains: lysine, arginine, and histidine; (6) acidic side chains: aspartic acid and glutamic acid; and (7) sulfur-containing side chains are cysteine ​​and methionine.

[0094] Antibodies can be obtained from sources such as serum or plasma, which contain immunoglobulins with various antigen specificities. These antibodies can be enriched for specific antigen specificity by affinity purification. Such enriched antibody formulations typically consist of less than about 10% antibodies with specific binding activity against a particular antigen. Performing several rounds of affinity purification on these formulations can increase the proportion of antibodies with specific binding activity against the antigen. Antibodies prepared in this manner are often referred to as "monospecific." Monospecific antibody formulations can consist of approximately 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 97%, 99%, or 99.9% antibodies with specific binding activity against a particular antigen. Antibodies can be generated using recombinant nucleic acid techniques described below.

[0095] As used herein, the term "vector" refers to a nucleic acid molecule capable of propagating another nucleic acid to which it is attached. This term includes vectors that are self-replicating nucleic acid structures, as well as vectors incorporated into the genome of a host cell into which they have been introduced. Some vectors are capable of directing the expression of the nucleic acid to which they are operatively attached. Such vectors are referred to herein as "expression vectors."

[0096] The terms “host cell,” “host cell line,” and “host cell culture” are used interchangeably and refer to cells in which exogenous nucleic acids have been introduced, including progeny cells of such cells. Host cells include “transformants” and “transformed cells,” which include primary transformed cells and their derived progeny, regardless of passage number.

[0126] As used herein, the term "alkylsulfonyl" means having the formula -S(O2)-R', where R' is a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group as defined above. R' may have a specified number of carbons (e.g., "C1-C4 alkylsulfonyl").

[0127] The term "alkylarylene" refers to an arylene moiety covalently bonded to an alkylene moiety (also referred to herein as an alkylene linker). In embodiments, the alkylarylene has the formula: or .

[0128] The alkylarylene moiety may be substituted (e.g., substituted with substituents) at the alkylene moiety or the arylene linker (e.g., at carbons 2, 3, 4, or 6) with the following: halogen, oxo, -N3, -CF3, -CCl3, -CBr3, -CI3, -CN, -CHO, -OH, -NH2, -COOH, -CONH2, -NO2, -SH, -SO2CH3, -SO3H, -OSO3H, -SO2NH2, -NHNH2, -ONH2, -NHC(O)NHNH2, substituted or unsubstituted C1-C5 alkyl groups, or substituted or unsubstituted 2- to 5-membered heteroalkyl groups. In embodiments, the alkylarylene group is unsubstituted.

[0129] Each of the terms above (e.g., "alkyl", "heteroalkyl", "cycloalkyl", "heterocycloalkyl", "aryl", and "heteroaryl") includes both the substituted and unsubstituted forms of the indicated group. Preferred substituents for each type of group are provided below.

[0130] Substituents in alkyl and heteroalkyl groups (including those commonly referred to as alkylene, alkenyl, heteroalkylene, heteroalkenyl, ynyl, cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, and heterocycloalkenyl) may be one or more groups selected from, but not limited to, the following groups: -OR', =O, =NR', =N-OR', -NR'R'', -SR', -halogen, -SiR'R''R''', -OC(O)R', -C(O)R', -CO2R', -CONR'R'', -OC(O)NR'R'', -NR''C(O)R', -NR''C(O)R''', -NR''C(O) 2R', -NR-C(NR'R''R''')=NR'''', -NR-C(NR'R'')=NR''', -S(O)R', -S(O)2R', -S(O)2NR'R'', -NRSO2R', -NR'NR''R''', -ONR'R'', -NR'C(O)NR''NR'''R'''', -CN, -NO2, -NR'SO2R'', -NR'C(O)R'', -NR'C(O)-OR'', -NR'OR'', with the number ranging from zero to (2m'+1), where m' is the total number of carbon atoms in this group. R, R', R'', R''', and R'''' each preferably independently refers to hydrogen, a substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, a substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, a substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl, a substituted or unsubstituted aryl (e.g., an aryl substituted with 1-3 halogens), a substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, an alkoxy or thioalkoxy, or an aralkyl. When the compounds described herein include more than one R group, each of the R groups is independently selected, for example, as each R' group, R'' group, R''' group, and R'''' group is independently selected when more than one of these groups is present. When R' and R'' are attached to the same nitrogen atom, they can combine with the nitrogen atom to form a 4-, 5-, 6-, or 7-membered ring. For example, -NR'R'' includes, but is not limited to, 1-pyrrolidinyl and 4-morpholinyl. Based on the above discussion of substituents, those skilled in the art will understand that the term "alkyl" is intended to include groups comprising a carbon atom bonded to a group other than a hydrogen group, such as haloalkyl (e.g., -CF3 and -CH2CF3) and acyl (e.g., -C(O)CH3, -C(O)CF3, -C(O)CH2OCH3, etc.).

[0131] Similar to the substituents described for alkyl groups, the substituents for aryl and heteroaryl groups are varied and selected from, for example: -OR', -NR'R'', -SR', -halogen, -SiR'R''R''', -OC(O)R', -C(O)R', -CO2R', -CONR'R'', -OC(O)NR'R'', -NR''C(O)R'', -NR''C(O)NR''R''', -NR''C(O)2R', -NR-C(NR'R''R''')=NR'''', -NR-C(NR'R'')=NR''', -S(O)R', -S(O)2R', -S(O)2NR'R'', -NRSO2R', -NR'NR''R''', - ONR'R'', -NR'C(O)NR''NR'''R'''', -CN, -NO2, -R', -N3, -CH(Ph)2, fluoro(C1-C4)alkoxy and fluoro(C1-C4)alkyl, -NR'SO2R'', -NR'C(O)R'', -NR'C(O)-OR'', -NR'OR'', in the range of zero to the total number of open valences on the aromatic ring system; and wherein R', R'', R''' and R'''' are preferably independently selected independently from hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl and substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl. When the compounds described herein include more than one R group, each R group among the R groups is selected independently, for example, as if each R' group, R'' group, R''' group and R'''' group were selected independently when more than one of these groups are present.

[0132] Substituents on a ring (e.g., cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, cycloalkylene, heterocycloalkylene, arylene, or heteroarylene) can be described as substituents on the ring rather than on a specific atom of the ring (often referred to as floating substituents). In this case, the substituent can be attached to any ring atom (following the valence rules), and in the case of fused or spirocyclic rings, the substituent described as associating with a single atom of the fused or spirocyclic ring (floating substituents on a single ring) can be a substituent on any of the fused or spirocyclic rings (floating substituents on multiple rings). When the substituent is attached to the ring rather than a specific atom (floating substituent) and the substituent's subscript is an integer greater than one, multiple substituents can be located on the same atom, the same ring, different atoms, different fused rings, or different spirocyclic rings, and each substituent can optionally be different. Where the connection point between the ring and the rest of the molecule is not limited to a single atom (floating substituent), the connection point can be any atom of the ring, and in the case of fused or spirocyclic rings, it can be any atom of any of the fused or spirocyclic rings while following the valence rules. In the case where a ring, fused ring, or spirocyclic ring comprises one or more cyclic heteroatoms, and the ring, fused ring, or spirocyclic ring is shown having more than one floating substituent (including, but not limited to, connection points with the rest of the molecule), the floating substituent may bond to the heteroatom. In the case where the cyclic heteroatom is shown bonded to one or more hydrogen atoms in a structure or formula having a floating substituent (e.g., a cyclic nitrogen having two bonds bonded to a ring atom and a third bond bonded to a hydrogen atom), when the heteroatom bonds to the floating substituent, the substituent will be understood as replacing hydrogen while following the rules of chemical valence.

[0133] Two or more substituents may optionally be linked to form aryl, heteroaryl, cycloalkyl, or heterocycloalkyl groups. Such so-called cycloforming substituents are found to be typically (though not necessarily) linked to a cyclic base structure. In one embodiment, the cycloforming substituent is linked to an adjacent element of the base structure. For example, two cycloforming substituents linked to an adjacent element of the cyclic base structure produce a fused ring structure. In another embodiment, the cycloforming substituent is linked to a single element of the base structure. For example, two cycloforming substituents linked to a single element of the cyclic base structure produce a spirocyclic structure. In yet another embodiment, the cycloforming substituent is linked to a non-adjacent element of the base structure.

[0134] Two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally form the formula -TC(O)-(CRR'). p A -U- ring, where T and U are independently -NR-, -O-, -CRR'-, or single bonds, and p is an integer from 0 to 3. Alternatively, two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally be of the formula -A-(CH2). rThe substituents of -B- are substituted, where A and B are independently -CRR'-, -O-, -NR-, -S-, -S(O)-, -S(O)2-, -S(O)2NR'-, or single bonds, and r is an integer from 1 to 4. One of the single bonds in the newly formed ring may optionally be substituted with a double bond. Alternatively, two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally be substituted with the formula -(CRR'-). s -X'-(C''R''R''') d The substituents are substituted, wherein s and d are independently integers from 0 to 3, and X' is -O-, -NR'-, -S-, -S(O)-, -S(O)2-, or -S(O)2NR'-. The substituents R, R', R'', and R''' are preferably independently selected from hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl, and substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl.

[0135] As used herein, the term “heteroatom” or “cyclic heteroatom” is intended to include oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), sulfur (S), phosphorus (P), and silicon (Si).

[0155] As used herein, the terms “bioconjugate” and “bioconjugate linker” refer to the association that occurs between atoms or molecules of a “bioconjugate reactive group” or a “bioconjugate reactive moiety.” Association can be direct or indirect. For example, the coupling between a first bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., -NH2, -C(O)OH, -N-hydroxysuccinimide, or -maleimide) and a second bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., thiol, sulfur-containing amino acid, amine, amine side chain of an amino acid, or carboxylate) can occur directly, for example, through a covalent bond or linker (e.g., the first linker of the second linker), or indirectly, for example, through non-covalent bonds (e.g., electrostatic interactions (e.g., ionic bonds, hydrogen bonds, halogen bonds), van der Waals interactions (e.g., dipole-dipole, dipole-induced dipole, London dispersion), ring stacking (π effect), hydrophobic interactions, etc.). In embodiments, bioconjugates or bioconjugate linkers are formed using bioconjugate chemistry (i.e., association of two bioconjugate reactive groups), which includes, but is not limited to, nucleophilic substitution (e.g., reactions of amines and alcohols with acyl halides, reactive esters), electrophilic substitution (e.g., enamine reactions), and additions to carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom multiple bonds (e.g., Michael reaction, Diels-Alder addition). These and other useful reactions are discussed in the following literature: for example, March, *Advanced Organic Chemistry*, 3rd ed., John Wiley & Sons, New York, 1985; Hermanson, *Bioconjugate Technologies*, Academic Press, San Diego, 1996; and Feeney et al., *Modification of Proteins*, Progress in Chemistry Series, Vol. 198, American Chemical Society, Washington, DC, 1982. In embodiments, the first bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., the maleimide moiety) is covalently linked to the second bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., a thiol). In one embodiment, a first bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., a haloacetyl moiety) is covalently linked to a second bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., a thiol). In another embodiment, a first bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., a pyridyl moiety) is covalently linked to a second bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., a thiol).In one embodiment, a first bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., an -N-hydroxysuccinimide moiety) is covalently linked to a second bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., an amine). In another embodiment, the first bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., a fluorophenyl ester moiety) reacts with the second bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., an amine) to form a covalent bond. In yet another embodiment, the first bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., an -sulfonyl-N-hydroxysuccinimide moiety) reacts with the second bioconjugate reactive group (e.g., an amine) to form a covalent bond.

[0156] Useful bioconjugate reactivity sections for the bioconjugate chemistry used in this article include, for example: (a) Carboxyl groups and their various derivatives, including but not limited to N-hydroxysuccinimide esters, N-hydroxybenzotriazole esters, acid halides, acylimidazoles, thioesters, p-nitrophenyl esters, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl and aromatic esters; (b) Hydroxyl group, which can be converted into ester, ether, aldehyde, etc.

[0157] (c) Haloalkyl, wherein the halide may subsequently be replaced by a nucleophilic group such as an amine, carboxylate anion, thiol anion, carbanion or alkoxy ion, thereby resulting in the new group being covalently attached at the site of the halogen atom; (d) a dienophile group, which is capable of participating in the Diels-Alder reaction, such as a maleimide group or a maleimide group; (e) an aldehyde or ketone group, wherein the aldehyde or ketone group allows for subsequent derivatization by the formation of a carbonyl derivative (e.g., an imine, hydrazone, hemicarbazone, or oxime) or by mechanisms such as Grignard addition or alkyllithium addition. (f) a sulfonyl halide group, which is used for subsequent reaction with an amine, for example, to form a sulfonamide; (g) Thiol group, which can be converted into a disulfide, react with an acyl halide, or bond with a metal such as gold, or react with maleimide; (h) An amine or thiol group (e.g., present in cysteine), which may be, for example, acylated, alkylated or oxidized; (i) An olefin, which may undergo, for example, cycloaddition, acylation, Michael addition, etc.; (j) epoxides, which can react with, for example, amines and hydroxyl compounds; (k) phosphorous amide and other standard functional groups that can be used in nucleic acid synthesis; (l) Metal-silicon oxide bonding; and (m) forms a metallic bond with a reactive phosphorus group (e.g., phosphine) to form, for example, a phosphate diester bond.

[0158] (n) Azides coupled with alkynes using copper-catalyzed cycloaddition click chemistry.

[0159] (o) Biotin conjugates can react with avidin or strepavidin to form avidin-biotin complex or strepavidin-biotin complex.

[0160] The reactive groups of bioconjugates can be selected such that they do not participate in or interfere with the chemical stability of the conjugates described herein. Alternatively, the presence of protecting groups can protect the reactive functional groups from participating in cross-linking reactions. In embodiments, bioconjugates comprise molecular entities derived from the reaction of unsaturated bonds such as maleimide with thiol groups.

[0161] The term "analog" or "analogue" is used according to its ordinary, general meaning in chemistry and biology, and refers to a chemical compound that is structurally similar but compositionally different from another compound (i.e., the so-called "reference" compound) for example, in the substitution of one atom by a different element, or in the presence of a particular functional group, or in the absolute stereochemistry of one or more chiral centers of a reference compound. Thus, an analog is a compound that is similar or equivalent to a reference compound in function and appearance, but dissimilar or not equivalent in structure or origin.

[0319] Drug loading The drug loading is represented by m, which is the average number of drug portions (i.e., D, D', or D'') of each monoclonal antibody in the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) of formula (I), (II), or (III) and its variants. The drug loading can range from 1 to 20 drug portions per antibody. The ADC of formula (I), (II), or (III) and any embodiments, variants, or aspects thereof comprise an array of antibodies conjugated to a range of 1 to 20 drug portions. In the preparation of ADCs from conjugation reactions, the average number of drug portions per antibody can be characterized by conventional methods such as mass spectrometry, ELISA assays, and HPLC. The quantitative distribution of the ADC with respect to m can also be determined. In some cases, homogeneous ADCs with other drug loadings, where m is a specific value, can be separated, purified, and characterized by methods such as HIC or reversed-phase HPLC or electrophoresis. In embodiments, the average number of drug portions (i.e., D, D', or D'') of each monoclonal antibody can range from 1 to 20 drug portions per antibody. In embodiments, the average number of drug portions (i.e., D, D', or D'') of each monoclonal antibody can range from 1 to 8 drug portions per antibody. In embodiments, the monoclonal antibody is an anti-CD25 antibody, an anti-B7-H3 antibody, an anti-ROR1 antibody, an anti-Trop-2 antibody, or an anti-BCMA antibody. In embodiments, the average number of drug portions (i.e., D, D', or D'') of each anti-CD25 antibody can range from 1 to 8 drug portions per antibody. In embodiments, the average number of drug portions (i.e., D, D', or D'') of each anti-B7-H3 antibody can range from 1 to 8 drug portions per antibody. In embodiments, the average number of drug portions (i.e., D, D', or D'') of each anti-ROR1 antibody can range from 1 to 8 drug portions per antibody. In embodiments, the average number of drug portions (i.e., D, D', or D'') of each anti-Trop-2 antibody can range from 1 to 8 drug portions per antibody. In implementation, the average number of drug fractions per anti-BCMA antibody (i.e., D, D', or D'') can range from 1 to 8 drug fractions per antibody.

[0320] For some ADCs, m may be limited by the number of linker sites on the antibody. For example, in some exemplary embodiments as described herein, when the linker is a cysteine ​​thiol, the antibody may have only one or a few cysteine ​​thiol groups, or may have only one or a few sufficiently reactive thiol groups that can be linked by its linker. In embodiments, the average drug loading of the ADC is in the range of 1 to about 8 or about 3 to about 8. In embodiments, L 1 It can form a covalent bond with the thiol group of free cysteine ​​in IgG antibodies.

[0321] In embodiments, a coupling method for derivatizing peptides with a payload can be achieved by forming an amide bond with the lysine side chain. Due to the presence of numerous lysine side chain amines with similar reactivity, this coupling strategy can produce very complex heterogeneous mixtures. The compositions and methods provided herein provide coupling via lysine, wherein, in some embodiments, enhanced lysine selectivity can produce mixtures with lower heterogeneity. In embodiments, the average drug loading of the ADC is in the range of 1 to about 20, 1 to about 8, or about 3 to about 8. In embodiments, L... 1 It can form a covalent bond with the amine group of lysine in IgG antibodies.

[0322] In this embodiment, during the coupling reaction, the amount of drug moiety conjugated to the antibody is less than the theoretical maximum. Antibodies typically do not include many free and reactive cysteine ​​thiols that can be linked to the drug moiety; in fact, most cysteine ​​thiols in antibodies exist as disulfide bridges. In this embodiment, the antibody can be reduced under partial or complete reducing conditions with reducing agents such as dithiothreitol (DTT) or tricarboxyethylphosphine (TCEP) to generate reactive cysteine ​​thiols. In this embodiment, the antibody is subjected to degrading conditions to reveal reactive nucleophilic groups such as lysine or cysteine.

[0323] The loading of an ADC (drug / antibody ratio or "DAR") can be controlled in various ways, for example, by: (i) limiting the molar excess of the drug-linker intermediate or linker reagent relative to the antibody; (ii) limiting the coupling reaction time or temperature; and (iii) using partial or limiting reduction conditions for cysteine ​​thiol modification. DAR can also be controlled by the reactivity of the groups reacting with the antibody or the reactivity of the antibody's groups.

[0324] It should be understood that when more than one nucleophilic group reacts with a drug-linker intermediate or linker reagent, the resulting product is a mixture of ADC compounds containing one or more drug moieties linked to the antibody. The average number of drugs per antibody can be calculated using HIC, RP, UV, or LC-MS. Individual ADC molecules can be identified in mixtures by mass spectrometry and separated by HPLC, such as hydrophobic interaction chromatography (see, for example, McDonald et al. (2006), *Protein Engineering Design & Selection*, 19(7):299-307; Hamblett et al. (2004), *Clin. Cancer Res.*, 10:7063-7070; Hamblett, KJ et al., “Effect of drug loading on the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, and toxicity of an anti-CD30 antibody-drug conjugate”, Abstract No. 624, *American Association for Cancer Research*, 2004 Annual Meeting, March 27-31, 2004, *Proceedings of the American Association for Cancer Research*).

In embodiments, homogeneous ADCs with a single loading value can be separated from the conjugation mixture by electrophoresis or chromatography.
