AI Technical Summary
Existing anti-IL-13 antibodies have safety and efficacy issues in treating inflammatory diseases such as asthma and atopic dermatitis. In particular, 73% of patients in the clinical trial of levozomab terminated the treatment prematurely due to adverse events, indicating a need for safer and more effective treatment options.
A multispecific construct was developed that specifically binds to both IL-13 and the second target TSLP. The targeted binding of IL-13 and TSLP is achieved by antibody moieties containing specific heavy and light chain variable region amino acid sequences. Antibody moieties in the form of full-length antibodies, Fab, F(ab')2, sdAb, and scFv are used.

[0001] This application claims the benefit and priority of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 578,946, filed August 25, 2023, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. Reference to the electronic sequence list
[0002] The contents of the electronic sequence list (253272000140seqlist.xml; size: 239,418 bytes; and creation date: August 19, 2024) are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. Technical Field
[0003] This invention relates to multispecific constructs that specifically bind to IL-13 and a second target (e.g., TSLP). Further provided herein are isolated anti-IL-13 antibody constructs, pharmaceutical compositions comprising multispecific constructs, methods for treating inflammatory diseases using multispecific constructs, and kits comprising multispecific constructs. Background Technology
[0004] Many abnormal cells and tissues, as well as many diseases, exhibit unique antigens that can be cleared by immune cells, including inflammatory diseases such as autoimmune disorders or asthma. These inflammatory diseases may each exhibit one or more different target antigens or one or more different epitopes of the same target antigen. For example, some antigens are overexpressed, mutagenized, or selectively mutagenized in inflamed tissues. Therefore, antibodies that target specific antigens present in diseases with systemic or local inflammation can be used as therapeutic agents.
[0005] Interleukin (IL)-13 is a pleiotropic cytokine commonly associated with asthma and atopic dermatitis. IL-13 binds to a high-affinity heteropolymeric complex composed of interleukin 13 receptor-α1 (IL-13Rα1) and interleukin 4 receptor-α (IL-4Rα). IL-13 also binds to interleukin 13 receptor-α2 (IL-13Rα2), however, IL-13Rα2 has been identified as a decoy receptor, participating in a signaling cascade distinct from that of IL-13Rα1. IL-13 is primarily secreted by T helper 2 cells (Th2 cells) and type 2 innate lymphocytes (ILC2). ILC2 produces IL-5 and IL-13 during allergic inflammation and bridges innate and adaptive immune responses. ILC2 activity promotes T helper 2 cell (Th2) responses, and the simultaneous action of ILC2 cells and Th2 cells is also associated with inflammatory diseases such as allergies and autoimmune disorders.
[0006] Recent results from clinical trials of anti-IL-13 antibodies (including the failure of trorocalumab for the treatment of severe asthma, according to Adbry)™ (See, for example, Brightling et al., Lancet Respir Med. 2015, 3(9):692-701) and the combined results of lerezomumab (see, for example, Hanania et al., Lancet Respir Med. 2016, 4(10):781-796) demonstrate the need for other anti-IL-13 antibodies to treat IL-13-related diseases, particularly inflammatory ones. In particular, the fact that 73% of patients prematurely terminated the lerezomab ACOUSTICS clinical trial due to adverse events (see Szefler et al., Clin Transl Allergy 2022, 12(7):212176) further underscores the clear need for safer and more effective treatment options.

[0071] This invention provides a multispecific construct (such as a bispecific construct) comprising an anti-IL-13 antibody portion that specifically binds to IL-13 and a second antibody portion that specifically binds to a second target antigen (e.g., TSLP). In some embodiments, the multispecific construct comprises one anti-IL-13 antibody portion. In some embodiments, the multispecific construct comprises two or more anti-IL-13 antibody portions. In some embodiments, the multispecific construct comprises one antibody portion that specifically binds to a second target antigen or target epitope. In some embodiments, the multispecific construct comprises two or more antibody portions that specifically bind to one or more other target antigens or target epitopes. In some embodiments, the second antigen is a protein produced by immune cells. In some embodiments, the second antigen is TSLP. This invention also provides, in another aspect, a novel anti-IL-13 antibody construct.
[0072] Following extensive research, the inventors of this application have discovered several unexpected advantages of the multispecific constructs described herein (e.g., the anti-IL-13 multispecific construct) compared to other multispecific proteins. First, the multispecific constructs described herein exhibit stronger binding to IL-13 and improved potency compared to currently available anti-IL-13 antibodies or their multispecific constructs. Second, the multispecific constructs (e.g., the anti-IL-13 multispecific construct) show cross-reactivity with both human and cynomolgus monkey IL-13, which facilitates the extrapolation of toxicity and efficacy studies from cynomolgus monkeys to human clinical studies. Third, some of the multispecific constructs described herein exhibit surprising in vivo stability (e.g., when administered simultaneously to mice and cynomolgus monkeys), making them particularly suitable for formulation at high concentrations. Fourth, some of the multispecific constructs described herein show in vivo half-lives that are significantly longer than those of other control multispecific antibodies (e.g., half-lives that are at least about 1.5, 2, 4, 5, or more times longer than the half-lives of control multispecific antibodies).
[0073] Pharmaceutical compositions and kits comprising either the multispecific constructs or anti-IL-13 antibody constructs described herein are also provided, as well as methods for using them to treat inflammatory diseases such as asthma, atopic dermatitis, or COPD.
[0074] I. Definition
[0075] As used herein, the term "treatment" refers to a clinical intervention designed to alter the natural processes of the treated individual or cells during a clinicopathological process. Desired therapeutic effects include reduced disease progression rates, improved or alleviated disease states, and remission or improved prognosis. For example, an individual is successfully "treated" if one or more symptoms associated with an inflammatory disease are reduced or eliminated, including but not limited to reduced local or systemic inflammation, reduced symptoms caused by the disease, improved quality of life for an individual with the disease, or reduced dosage of other medications required to treat the disease.
[0076] As used herein, “effective amount” refers to the amount of a drug or pharmacological agent that is effective in treating a disease or disorder of a subject (such as an individual, e.g., a person). In the case of an inflammatory disease, an effective amount of a drug may reduce the number of active immune cells; reduce the amount of pro-inflammatory cytokines; locally and / or systemically inhibit (i.e., to some extent slow down, and preferably terminate) the activity of inflammatory immune cells; and / or to some extent alleviate one or more symptoms associated with the inflammatory disease. As understood in a clinical context, an effective amount of a drug, compound, or pharmaceutical composition may or may not be achieved in combination with another drug, compound, or pharmaceutical composition. Therefore, an “effective amount” can be considered in the context of administering one or more therapeutic agents, and a single agent may be considered to be administered in an effective amount if the desired result is achieved or is achieved in combination with one or more other agents.
[0077] As used herein, "individual" or "subject" refers to a mammal, including but not limited to humans, cattle, horses, cats, dogs, rodents, or primates. In some implementations, the individual is a human.
[0078] The term “antibody” is used in the broadest sense and specifically covers monoclonal antibodies (including full-length monoclonal antibodies), multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), and antibody fragments, provided they exhibit the desired biological activity or function. As used herein, the terms “immunoglobulin” (Ig) and “antibody” are used interchangeably.
[0079] The term "full-length antibody" is used herein to refer to an antibody in its essentially complete form, rather than an antibody fragment as defined below. Specifically, it refers to antibodies with a heavy chain containing an Fc region. Full-length antibodies are typically heterotetrameric glycoproteins of approximately 150,000 Daltons, composed of two identical light (L) chains and two identical heavy (H) chains.
[0080] The term "constant domain" refers to a portion of an immunoglobulin molecule that has a more conserved amino acid sequence compared to other parts of the immunoglobulin, including the variable domain containing the antigen-binding site. The constant domain contains the C16 heavy chain. H 1. C H 2 and CH 3. The structural domains (collectively referred to as CH) and the C of the light chain H L (or CL) structural domain.
[0081] The "variable region" or "variable domain" of an antibody refers to the amino-terminal domain of either the heavy or light chain. The variable domain of the heavy chain may be referred to as "VH," and the variable domain of the light chain may be referred to as "VL." These domains are typically the most variable parts of the antibody and contain antigen-binding sites.
[0082] The term "variable" refers to the fact that certain portions of a variable domain are widely sequence-differentiated between antibodies and are responsible for the binding and specificity of each particular antibody to its specific antigen. However, variability is not uniformly distributed throughout the entire variable domain of an antibody. It is concentrated in three segments called hypervariable regions (HVRs, also known as CDRs) in both the light chain and heavy chain variable domains. The more highly conserved portions of the variable domain are called frame regions (FRs). The native heavy and light chain variable domains each contain four FRs, predominantly in a β-sheet configuration, linked by three HVRs that form loops connecting the β-sheet structures and, in some cases, their portions. The HVRs in each chain are held tightly together by the FRs and, together with HVRs from the other chain, contribute to the formation of the antibody's antigen-binding site (see Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th ed., National Institute of Health, Bethesda, Md. (1991)). Constant domains do not directly participate in antibody-antigen binding but exhibit various effector functions, such as antibody involvement in antibody-dependent cytotoxicity. The residues of constant domains are described in this paper based on EU numbering.
[0083] As used herein, the term “CDR” or “complementarity-determining region” is intended to refer to a discontinuous antigen-binding site found within the variable region of heavy and light chain polypeptides. These specific regions have been described in the following literature: Kabat et al., J. Biol. Chem. 252:6609-6616 (1977); Kabat et al., US Dept. of Health and Human Services, “Sequences of proteins of immunological interest” (1991); Chothia et al., J. Mol. Biol. 196:901-917 (1987); Al-Lazikani B. et al., J. Mol. Biol., 273:927-948 (1997); MacCallum et al., J. Mol. Biol. 262:732-745 (1996); Abhinandan and Martin, Mol. Immunol., 45: 3832-3839 (2008); Lefranc MP et al., Dev. Comp. Immunol., 27: 55-77 (2003); and Honegger and Plückthun, J. Mol. Biol., 309:657-670 (2001), where, when compared with each other, the definitions include overlaps or subsets of amino acid residues. However, the application of either definition to refer to an antibody or a transplanted antibody or a variant thereof is intended to be within the scope of the terminology as defined and used herein. The amino acid residues covering the CDR defined in each of the references cited above are listed as a comparison in Table A below. CDR prediction algorithms and interfaces are known in the art, including, for example, Abhinandan and Martin, Mol. Immunol., 45: 3832-3839 (2008); Ehrenmann F. et al., Nucleic Acids Res., 38: D301-D307 (2010); and Adolf-Bryfogle J. et al., Nucleic Acids Res., 43: D432-D438 (2015). The entire contents of the references cited in this paragraph are incorporated herein by reference for the purposes of this application and may be included in one or more of the claims herein. The amino acid residues of the CDRs provided herein are described based on Kabat.

[0091] Based on the amino acid sequence of its constant structural domains, the "light chain" of antibodies (immunoglobulins) derived from any mammalian species can be designated as one of two completely different types (i.e., κ and λ).
[0092] As used herein, the term IgG “isotype” or “subclass” refers to any subclass of immunoglobulin defined by the chemical and antigenic characteristics of its constant region.
[0093] Antibodies (immunoglobulins) can be classified into different classes based on the amino acid sequence of their heavy chain constant domains. There are five major classes of immunoglobulins: IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM, and several of these classes can be further subdivided into subclasses (isotypes), such as IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and IgA2. The heavy chain constant domains corresponding to different classes of immunoglobulins are designated as α, δ, α, γ, and µ, respectively. The subunit structures and three-dimensional conformations of different classes of immunoglobulins are well-known and generally described, for example, in Abbas et al., Cellular and Mol. Immunology, 4th edition (WBSaunders, Co., 2000). Antibodies can be part of a larger fusion molecule formed by the covalent or non-covalent association of an antibody with one or more other proteins or peptides.
[0094] An "antibody fragment" comprises a portion of a complete antibody, preferably including its antigen-binding region. In some embodiments, the antibody fragment described herein is an antigen-binding fragment. Examples of antibody fragments or antigen-binding fragments include Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, and Fv fragments (such as single-chain variable fragments, scFv); biantibodies; linear antibodies; single-chain antibody molecules; and multispecific antibodies formed from antibody fragments.
[0095] Antibody digestion with papain produces two identical antigen-binding fragments, called "Fab" fragments (each with a single antigen-binding site) and a residual "Fc" fragment (whose name reflects its tendency to crystallize). Pepsin treatment produces the F(ab')2 fragment, which has two antigen-binding sites and is still capable of cross-linking the antigen.
[0096] "Fv" is the smallest antibody fragment containing a complete antigen-binding site. In one embodiment, a double-stranded Fv species consists of a dimer of a heavy-chain variable domain and a light-chain variable domain in tight non-covalent association. In a single-stranded Fv (scFv) species, a heavy-chain variable domain and a light-chain variable domain can be covalently linked by a flexible peptide linker, allowing the light and heavy chains to associate into a "dimer" structure similar to the dimer structure in the double-stranded Fv species. It is in this configuration that the three HVRs of each variable domain interact to define the antigen-binding site on the surface of the VH-VL dimer. The six HVRs collectively confer antigen-binding specificity to the antibody. However, even a single variable domain (or half of an Fv containing only three HVRs specific to the antigen) has the ability to recognize and bind antigens, albeit with a lower affinity than the complete binding site.
[0097] The Fab fragment has two polypeptide chains containing a variable domain (VH) of the heavy chain and a variable domain (VL) of the light chain, and also contains a constant domain (CL) of the light chain and a first constant domain (C) of the heavy chain. H 1). The difference between the Fab' fragment and the Fab fragment lies in the heavy chain C containing one or more cysteine residues from the antibody hinge region. H Several residues were added to the carboxyl terminus of the 1 domain. Fab'-SH is the name given in this paper to the Fab' whose constant domain contains cysteine residues with free thiol groups. The F(ab')2 antibody fragment was initially generated as a Fab' fragment pair with a hinged cysteine residue in between. Other chemical conjugations of antibody fragments are also known.
[0098] A "single-chain Fv" or "scFv" antibody fragment contains both the VH and VL domains of the antibody, which are contained within a single polypeptide chain. Typically, the scFv polypeptide also includes a polypeptide linker between the VH and VL domains, which allows the scFv to form the desired structure for antigen binding. For a review of scFvs, see, for example, Pluckthün, *The Pharmacology of Monoclonal Antibodies*. Springer Berlin, Heidelberg, 1994, pp. 269-315.
[0099] The “Fc” fragment contains the carboxyl-terminal portions of two heavy chains held together by disulfide bonds. The effector function of an antibody is determined by the sequence in the Fc region, which is also the region recognized by the Fc receptor (FcR) found on certain types of cells.
[0100] As used herein, the term "monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody obtained from a substantially homogeneous population of antibodies, for example, the individual antibodies constituting that population are identical except for the possibility of a small number of possible mutations (e.g., naturally occurring mutations). Therefore, the modifier "monoclonal" indicates that the antibody is not a mixture of discrete antibodies. In some embodiments, such monoclonal antibodies typically comprise an antibody containing a polypeptide sequence that binds to a target, wherein the target-binding polypeptide sequence is obtained by a method comprising selecting a single target-binding polypeptide sequence from a plurality of polypeptide sequences. For example, the selection process may be to select a unique clone from a pool of clones, such as hybridoma clones, phage clones, or recombinant DNA clones. It should be understood that the selected target-binding sequence can be further modified, for example, to improve affinity for the target, humanize the target-binding sequence, improve its production in cell cultures, reduce its immunogenicity in vivo, generate multispecific antibodies, etc., and antibodies containing modified target-binding sequences are also monoclonal antibodies of the present invention. In contrast to polyclonal antibody formulations, which typically comprise different antibodies against different determinants (epitopes), each monoclonal antibody in a monoclonal antibody formulation targets a single determinant on an antigen. In addition to their specificity, monoclonal antibody preparations have the advantage that they are generally not contaminated by other immunoglobulins.
[0101] The modifier “monoclonal” indicates that the antibody is derived from a substantially homologous group of antibodies and is not interpreted as requiring the antibody to be produced by any particular method. For example, the monoclonal antibodies used according to the present invention can be prepared by a variety of techniques, including, for example, hybridoma methods (e.g., Kohler and Milstein, Nature 256:495-97 (1975); Hongo et al., Hybridoma 14 (3): 253-260 (1995); Harlow et al., Antibodies: A Laboratory Manual, (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2nd edition 1988); Hammerling et al., Monoclonal Antibodies and T-Cell Hybridomas 563-681 (Elsevier, NY, 1981)), recombinant DNA methods (see, for example, U.S. Patent No. 4,816,567), phage display techniques (see, for example, Clackson et al., Nature 352: 624-628 (1991); Marks et al., J. Mol. Biol. 222: 581-597 (1992); Sidhu et al., J. Mol. Biol. 338(2): 299-310 (2004); Lee et al., J. Mol. Biol.340(5): 1073-1093 (2004); Fellouse, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 101(34): 12467-12472 (2004); and Lee et al., J. Immunol. Methods 284(1-2): 119-132 (2004)), and techniques for generating human or human-like antibodies in animals having a portion or all of the human immunoglobulin loci or genes encoding human immunoglobulin sequences (see, for example, WO 1998 / 24893; WO 1996 / 34096; WO 1996 / 33735; WO1991 / 10741; Jakobovits et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90: 2551 (1993); Jakobovits et al., Nature 362: 255-258 (1993); Bruggemann et al., Year in Immunol.7:33 (1993); U.S. Patents 5,545,807, 5,545,806, 5,569,825, 5,625,126, 5,633,425 and 5,661,016; Marks et al., Bio / Technology 10: 779-783 (1992); Lonberg et al., Nature 368: 856-859 (1994); Morrison, Nature 368: 812-813 (1994); Fishwild et al., Nature Biotechnol. 14: 845-851 (1996); Neuberger, Nature Biotechnol. 14: 826 (1996); and Lonberg and Huszar, Intern. Rev. Immunol. 13: 65-93 (1995)). .
[0102] The monoclonal antibodies described herein specifically comprise “chimeric” sequences in which a portion of the heavy and / or light chain is identical or homologous to a corresponding sequence in an antibody derived from a specific species or belonging to a specific antibody species or subclass, while the remainder of the chain is identical or homologous to a corresponding sequence in an antibody derived from another species or belonging to another antibody species or subclass, as well as fragments of such antibodies, provided they exhibit the desired biological activity (see, for example, U.S. Patent No. 4,816,567; and Morrison et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 81:6851-6855 (1984)). Chimeric antibodies include PRIMATIZED. ® Antibodies, wherein the antigen-binding region of an antibody is derived from antibodies produced by, for example, immunizing a macaque with the antigen of interest.
[0103] Humanized forms of nonhuman (e.g., mouse) antibodies are chimeric antibodies containing minimal sequences derived from nonhuman immunoglobulins. In one embodiment, the humanized antibody is a human immunoglobulin (recipient antibody) in which residues in the recipient's HVR are replaced by residues in the HVR of a nonhuman species (donor antibody) such as a mouse, rat, rabbit, or nonhuman primate having the desired specificity, affinity, and / or ability. In some cases, FR residues of the human immunoglobulin are replaced by corresponding nonhuman residues. Furthermore, the humanized antibody may contain residues not found in either the recipient or donor antibody. These modifications can be made to further improve antibody performance. Generally, the humanized antibody will contain at least one, and typically two, variable domains, wherein all or substantially all of the hypervariable loops correspond to those of the nonhuman immunoglobulin, and all or substantially all of the FRs are those of the human immunoglobulin sequence. The humanized antibody will also optionally contain at least a portion of the immunoglobulin constant region (Fc), typically at least a portion of the constant region of the human immunoglobulin. For further details, see, for example, Jones et al., Nature 321:522-525 (1986); Riechmann et al., Nature 332:323-329 (1988); and Presta, Curr. Op. Struct. Biol. 2:593-596 (1992). See also, for example, Vaswani and Hamilton, Ann. Allergy, Asthma & Immunol. 1:105-115 (1998); Harris, Biochem. Soc. Transactions 23:1035-1038 (1995); Hurle and Gross, Curr. Op. Biotech. 5:428-433 (1994); and U.S. Patent Nos. 6,982,321 and 7,087,409.
[0104] "Human antibody" refers to an antibody having an amino acid sequence corresponding to that of an antibody produced by humans and / or prepared using any technique for preparing human antibodies as disclosed herein. This definition of human antibody specifically excludes humanized antibodies containing non-human antigen-binding residues. Human antibodies can be produced using a variety of techniques known in the art, including phage display libraries. Hoogenboom and Winter, J. Mol. Biol. 227:381 (1991); Marks et al., J. Mol. Biol. 222:581 (1991). Methods also used for preparing human monoclonal antibodies are described in Cole et al., Monoclonal Antibodies and Cancer Therapy, Alan R. Liss, 77 (1985); Boerner et al., J. Immunol. 147(1):86-95 (1991). See also van Dijk and van de Winkel, Curr. Opin. Pharmacol. 5: 368-74 (2001). Human antibodies can be prepared by administering an antigen to a transgenic animal that has been modified to produce such antibodies in response to antigen challenge, but whose endogenous loci have been disabled, for example, in immunized xenogeneic mice (see, for example, U.S. Patent Nos. 6,075,181 and 6,150,584, concerning XENOMOUSE). ™ (Technology). For information on human antibodies generated via human B-cell hybridoma technology, see, for example, Li et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 103:3557-3562 (2006).
[0105] The terms “hypervariant region,” “HVR,” or “HV,” as used herein, refer to regions within the variable domains of an antibody that exhibit sequence hypervariability and / or form structurally defined loops. Typically, antibodies contain six HVRs: three in the VH domain (H1, H2, H3) and three in the VL domain (L1, L2, L3). In native antibodies, H3 and L3 exhibit the greatest diversity among the six HVRs, and H3, in particular, is considered to play a unique role in conferring fine specificity to antibodies. See, for example, Xu et al., Immunity 13:37–45 (2000); Johnson and Wu, Methods in Molecular Biology 248:1–25 (Lo ed., HumanPress, Totowa, NJ, 2003). Indeed, naturally occurring camel antibodies consisting solely of heavy chains are functional and stable in the absence of light chains. See, for example, Hamers-Casterman et al., Nature 363:446-448 (1993); Sheriff et al., Nature Struct. Biol. 3:733-736 (1996). HVR is also known as “CDR” or “complementary determinant region”.
[0106] The structure and location of the immunoglobulin variable region can be determined by referring to Kabat, E.A. et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest. 4th ed. US Department of Health and Human Services. 1987 and its updates (now available on the Internet (immuno.bme.nwu.edu)).
[0107] "Frame" or "FR" residues are those variable domain residues other than HVR residues as defined herein.
[0108] As used herein, the term "covalent link" refers to a direct link through one or more chemical bonds or an indirect link through one or more junctions. Direct links can be generated using any suitable chemical bond, including but not limited to covalent bonds such as peptide and disulfide bonds, or non-covalent bonds such as hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic bonds, ionic bonds, or van der Waals bonds.
[0109] As used herein, a "covalent bond" is a stable bond between two atoms that share one or more electrons. Examples of covalent bonds include, but are not limited to, peptide bonds and disulfide bonds. As used herein, a "peptide bond" is a covalent bond formed between the carboxyl group of an amino acid and the amino group of an adjacent amino acid. As used herein, a "disulfide bond" is a covalent bond formed between two sulfur atoms, such as in a heavy chain segment C. H 1 and the light chain segment CL are linked by a combination of one or more disulfide bonds. One or more disulfide bonds can be formed between the two segments by connecting thiol groups in the two segments. In some embodiments, one or more disulfide bonds may be formed between one or more cysteine residues of the heavy chain segment and the light chain segment, respectively. Disulfide bonds can be formed by the oxidation of two thiol groups. In some embodiments, the covalent bonds are directly linked by covalent bonds. In some embodiments, the covalent bonds are directly linked by peptide bonds or disulfide bonds.
[0110] As used herein, the terms “binding,” “specifically binding,” or “specific to” refer to a measurable and reproducible interaction, such as the binding between a target and an antibody, which determines the presence of the target in the presence of a heterogeneous molecular population comprising biomolecules. For example, an antibody that binds to or specifically binds to a target (which may be an epitope) is an antibody that binds to this target with greater affinity, cohesion, ease of binding, and / or longer duration of binding compared to its binding to other targets. In one embodiment, the degree to which the antibody binds to an unrelated target is less than about 10% of the antibody-target binding, as measured, for example, by radioimmunoassay (RIA). In some embodiments, antibodies that specifically bind to a target have a dissociation constant (Ki) of ≤ 1 μM, ≤ 100 nM, ≤ 10 nM, ≤ 1 nM, or ≤ 0.1 nM. d In some embodiments, the antibody specifically binds to an epitope on a protein that is conserved across proteins from different species. In another embodiment, specific binding may include, but is not required to be, exclusive binding.
[0111] As used herein, the “percentage of amino acid sequence identity (%)” relative to a peptide, polypeptide, or antibody sequence is defined as the percentage of amino acid residues in a candidate sequence that are identical to amino acid residues in a specific peptide or polypeptide sequence, after alignment and cleavage to achieve the maximum percentage of sequence identity, if necessary, and without considering any conserved substitutions as part of the sequence identity. Alignments performed for the purpose of determining the percentage of amino acid sequence identity can be performed in a variety of ways within the scope of the art, such as using publicly available computer software such as BLAST, BLAST-2, ALIGN, or MEGALIGN. ™(DNASTAR) software. Those skilled in the art can determine the appropriate parameters for measuring alignment, including any algorithms required to achieve maximum alignment across the full length of the sequences to be compared.
[0112] Amino acid substitutions may include, but are not limited to, the replacement of one amino acid in a peptide with another. Exemplary substitutions are shown in Table B. Amino acid substitutions can be introduced into antibodies of interest, and the desired activity of the product can be screened, such as preserved / improved antigen binding, reduced immunogenicity, or improved ADCC or CDC.
[0113] Table B. Exemplary Amino Acid Substitutions .
[0114]
[0115] Amino acids can be grouped according to common side chain characteristics: (1) hydrophobic: leucine, Met, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile; (2) neutral-hydrophilic: Cys, Ser, Thr, Asn, Gln; (3) acidic: Asp, Glu; (4) basic: His, Lys, Arg; (5) residues affecting chain orientation: Gly, Pro; and (6) aromatic: Trp, Tyr, Phe. Non-conservative substitutions will require swapping members from one category to another.
[0116] The term "multispecific" used in conjunction with antibodies or antigen-binding proteins refers to antibodies or antigen-binding proteins that have multi-epitope specificity (i.e., the ability to specifically bind to two, three, or more different epitopes on a single biomolecule, or the ability to specifically bind to epitopes on two, three, or more different biomolecules). Unless otherwise specified, the order in which the antigens bound to a multispecific antibody are listed in its name is arbitrary.
[0117] The term "bispecific" used in conjunction with antibodies or antigen-binding proteins refers to an antibody or antigen-binding protein that can specifically bind to two different epitopes on a single biomolecule, or specifically bind to epitopes on two different biomolecules. Unless otherwise specified, the order in which the antigens bound to a bispecific antibody are listed in its name is arbitrary.
[0118] The "mortar and pestle" strategy (see, for example, PCT International Publication No. WO 2006 / 028936) has its simple and general meaning as understood in the specification, and refers to a strategy that can be used to generate full-length bispecific antibodies. In short, it involves the formation of C in human IgG. H The selection of amino acids at the junction of the three domains can affect C. HMutations at the sites of the three domain interactions promote heterodimer formation. Amino acids with small side chains (potassium) are introduced into the heavy chain of an antibody that specifically binds to the first antigen, while amino acids with large side chains (grossroots) are introduced into the heavy chain of an antibody that specifically binds to the second antigen. After co-expression of the two antibodies, heterodimers form due to the preferential interaction between the "potassium" and "grossroots" heavy chains.
[0119] As used herein, the term "vector" refers to a nucleic acid molecule capable of propagating another nucleic acid to which it is linked. This term includes vectors that function as self-replicating nucleic acid structures, as well as vectors that are integrated into the genome of the host cell to which they are introduced. Some vectors are capable of directing the expression of nucleic acids to which they are operatively linked. Such vectors are referred to herein as "expression vectors."
[0120] It should be understood that the embodiments of the present invention described herein include embodiments that are "composed of" and / or "substantially composed of".
[0121] The use of "about" in this article to refer to a value or parameter includes (and describes) variations relating to that value or parameter itself. For example, a description of "about X" includes a description of "X".
[0122] The terms “about” and “approximately” mean within 20%, 15%, 10%, 9%, 8%, 7%, 6%, 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, 1% or less of a given value or range.
[0123] As used herein, references to "not" values or parameters generally mean and describe values or parameters that are "other than" or "not otherwise". For example, "This method is not used to treat type X inflammatory diseases" means that this method is used to treat inflammatory diseases other than type X.
[0124] The term “about XY” as used in this article has the same meaning as “about X to about Y”.
[0125] As used herein and in the appended claims, the singular forms “a / an,” “or,” and “the / said” include plural references unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
