BISPECIFIC ANTIBODY-LIKE PROTEIN AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING THEREOFCROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims the benefit of the filing date of U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 63 / 604,077 filed November 29, 2023, under 35 U.S.C. 119(e), the entire disclosures of which are incorporated by reference herein.TECHNICAL FIELD
[0002] The present disclosure generally relates to the technical field of antibody therapy for treating cancer, and more particularly relates to bispecific antibody-like proteins.BACKGROUND
[0003] The human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, also known as ErbBl, HER1) family has four members, EGFR, HER2, HER3, and HER4. Deregulation of each member by means of mutation, amplification, and overexpression plays an important role in tumorigenesis and metastasis in a wide variety of tumors. Interruption of EGFR family signaling, either by blocking binding sites on the extracellular domain of the receptor or by inhibiting intracellular tyrosine kinase activity, can prevent the growth of EGFR-family-expressing tumors and improve the patient's condition. For example, HER2 overexpression occurs in 30% of breast cancer patients, indicative of increased disease recurrence and a poor prognosis. HER2 overexpression is also known to occur in stomach, ovarian, and gastric cancer, adenocarcinoma of lung, aggressive forms of uterine cancer, and salivary duct carcinomas. HER2 mutations have been found in non- small-cell lung cancers. The underlying HER2 mutation and amplification produce aberrant growth signals that activate its downstream signaling pathway leading to tumorigenesis. Specifically, HER2 dimerizes with HER3 on the surface of tumor cells, which activates PI3K / AKT signalling that promotes tumor growth and survival.
[0004] Several therapeutic antibodies and small-molecule inhibitors directed against EGFR and HER2 have been approved for use in the treatment of cancer (Arteaga et al. 2012). The examples of therapeutic anti-HER2 antibodies include Trastuzumab and Pertuzumab that are approved for treating several forms of cancers, including breast cancer and gastric cancer (https: / / www.herceptin.com / hcp / treating-HER2-cancer.html). In particular, the monoclonal antibodies against either EGFR or HER2 have demonstrated good clinical responses in colon cancer (Price et al. 2014), squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck (Cohen, 2014), breast and gastric cancers (Arteaga et al. 2012).
[0005] Trastuzumab (Herceptin) and other agents targeting HER2 exerts antitumor efficacy in patients with HER2-expressing breast cancer and stomach cancer. Trastuzumab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to HER2 and the binding increases the activity of p27, a protein that halts cell proliferation. Trastuzumab is effective only in cancers where HER2 is overexpressed. One year of Trastuzumab therapy is recommended for all patients with HER2-positive breast cancer who are also receiving chemotherapy, and there is no additional benefit beyond 12 months.Pertuzumab is another monoclonal antibody capable of inhibiting dimerization of HER2 with other receptors, such as HER3, and is a FDA-approved therapeutics for use in combination with Trastuzumab and Docetaxel, a chemotherapeutic agent, for the treatment of metastatic HER2- positive breast cancer (Durkee et al. 2016).
[0006] Despite of these success, the long-term benefit seems to be limited in some patients. Many tumors that initially respond to these therapeutic agents eventually progress due to an acquired resistance to the agents. The development of drug resistance reduces the efficacy of these treatments. In the case of HER2-targeted therapies, the resistance can occur via upregulation of HER3 or its ligand HRG. These findings imply that the current therapeutic approaches aiming at inhibiting the activation of HER2 / HER3 signalling pathway have failed to provide meaningful clinical benefit (Geuijen et al. 2018; Yu et al. 2019).
[0007] In summary, currently approved antibody therapies targeting HER2 and / or HER3 have disadvantages of either a low response rate to the treatment or the patient developing resistance to the treatment. There is a need of a better treatment for these cancers.SUMMARY

[0060] This disclosure provides antibody-like proteins and their immunoconjugates with superior therapeutic properties or efficacies over the currently known antibodies targeting one or two members of EGFR family. In one embodiment, the antibody-like proteins are structurally configured to efficiently target two members of EGFR family, HER2 and HER3. The antiproliferative activities of these bispecific antibody-like proteins may result from blocking or inhibiting different receptor-mediated oncogenic signaling simultaneously.
[0061] The terms "a", "an" and "the" as used herein are defined to mean "one or more" and include the plural unless the context is inappropriate.
[0062] The terms "polypeptide", "peptide", and "protein", as used herein, are interchangeable and are defined to mean a biomolecule composed of amino acids linked by a peptide bond.
[0063] The term "antigen" refers to an entity or fragment thereof which can induce an immune response in an organism, particularly an animal, more particularly a mammal including a human. The term includes immunogens and regions thereof responsible for antigenicity or antigenic determinants.
[0064] The terms "antigen- or epitope-binding portion or fragment", "variable domain", "variable region", "variable region sequence", or "binding domain" refer to fragments of an antibody that are capable of binding to an antigen (such as HER2 and HER3 in this application). These fragments may be capable of the antigen-binding function and additional functions of the intact antibody.
[0065] The terms "Fv" or "scFv" refers to the minimum antibody fragment which contains a complete antigen recognition and binding site. This region consists of a dimer of one heavy and one light chain variable domain in tight, non-covalent association. It is in this configuration that the three CDRs of each variable domain interact to define an antigen binding site on the surface of the VH-VL dimer. Collectively, the six CDRs confer antigen binding specificity to the antibody. However, even a single variable domain (or half of an Fv comprising only three CDRs specific for an antigen) can recognize and bind antigen, although at a lower affinity than the entire binding site. Examples of binding fragments include, but are not limited to, a single-chain Fv fragment(scFv) consisting of variable light chain (VL) and variable heavy chain (VH) domains of a single arm of an antibody connected in a single polypeptide chain by a synthetic linker, or a Fab fragment which is a monovalent fragment consisting of VL, constant light (CL), VH and constant heavy 1 (CHI) domain. Antibody fragments can be even smaller sub-fragments and can consist of domains as small as a single CDR domain, in particular the CDR3 regions from eitherthe VL and / or VH domains.
[0066] The term "VH-VL pairing" refers to the selection of suitable human germlines during the humanization process for the heavy and light chains to form a stable Fv. The mutual orientation of the VH and VL domains should correspond to that observed in the parental antibody.
[0067] Antibody fragments are produced using conventional methods known to those skilled in the art. The antibody fragments can be screened for utility using the same techniques employed with intact antibodies. Purified monoclonal antibodies can be cleaved with an enzyme, such as pepsin, and subjected to HPLC gel filtration. Papain digestion of antibodies 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 ability to crystallize readily. Pepsin treatment yields an F(ab')2 fragment that has two antigen combining sites and is still capable of cross-linking antigen. The appropriate fraction containing Fab fragments can then be collected and concentrated by membrane filtration and the like. For further description of general techniques for the isolation of active fragments of antibodies.
[0068] The term "antibody" is used in the broadest sense and specifically covers single monoclonal antibodies and / or recombinant antibodies (including agonist and antagonist antibodies), antibody compositions with polyepitopic specificity, as well as antibody fragments (e.g., Fab, F(ab')z, and Fv), so long as they exhibit the desired biological activity. In some embodiments, the antibody may be monoclonal, polyclonal, chimeric, single chain, multi-specific or multi-effective, human and humanized antibodies, as well as active fragments thereof. Examples of active fragments of molecules that bind to known antigens include Fab, F(ab')2, scFv and Fv fragments, including the products of a Fab immunoglobulin expression library and epitope-binding fragments of any of the antibodies and fragments mentioned above.
[0069] The term "antibody-like protein" are proteins that are antibody-like and can specifically bind to antigens with high specificity and affinity. Sometimes, in this application, "antibody" and "antibody-like protein" may be used interchangeably.
[0070] In some embodiments, antibody may include immunoglobulin molecules and immunologically active portions of immunoglobulin molecules, i.e. molecules that contain a binding site and that immunospecifically bind an antigen. A typical antibody refers to heterotetrameric protein comprising typically of two heavy (H) chains and two light (L) chains. Each heavy chain is comprised of a heavy chain variable domain (abbreviated as VH) and a heavy chain constant domain. Each light chain is comprised of a light chain variable domain (abbreviated as VL) and a light chain constant domain. The light chains of antibodies(immunoglobulins) from any vertebrate species can be assigned to one of two clearly distinct types, called kappa and lambda, based on the amino acid sequences of their constant domains. The VH and VL regions can be further subdivided into domains of hypervariable complementarity determining regions (CDR), and more conserved regions called framework regions (FR). Each variable domain (either VH or VL) is typically composed of three CDRs and four FRs, arranged in the following order: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4 from amino-terminus to carboxyterminus. Within the variable regions of the light and heavy chains there are binding regions that interacts with the antigen.
[0071] Depending on the amino acid sequence of the constant domain of their heavy chains, immunoglobulins can be assigned to different classes. There are five major classes of immunoglobulins: IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG and IgM, and several of these may be further divided into subclasses (isotypes), e.g., IgG-l, lgG-2, lgG-3, and lgG-4; IgA-1 and IgA-2. The heavy chain constant domains that correspond to the different classes of immunoglobulins are called alpha, delta, epsilon, gamma, and mu, respectively. The subunit structures and three-dimensional configurations of different classes of immunoglobulins are well known.
[0072] The term "valency" refers to the number of antigenic determinants that an individual antibody molecule can bind. The valency of all natural antibodies is at least two, whereas the term "mono-valent" refers to an engineered antibody or antibody like protein with a single binding domain comprisingthe pairing of six hypervariable complementarity determining regions (CDRs), i.e., three HC-CDRs and three LC-CDR. In this context, "antibody affinity" refers to the tendency of an antibody to bind to a specific epitope at the surface of an antigen, i.e., to the strength of the interaction.
[0073] The term "monoclonal antibody" as used herein refers to an antibody obtained from a population of substantially homogeneous antibodies, i.e., the individual antibodies comprising the population are identical except for possible naturally occurring mutations that may be present in minor amounts. Monoclonal antibodies are highly specific, being directed against a single antigenic site. Furthermore, in contrast to conventional (polyclonal) antibody preparations which typically include different antibodies directed against different determinants (epitopes), each monoclonal antibody is directed against a single determinant on the antigen. In addition to their specificity, the monoclonal antibodies are advantageous in that they are synthesized by the hybridoma culture, uncontaminated by other immunoglobulins. The modifier "monoclonal" indicates the character of the antibody as being obtained from a substantially homogeneous population of antibodies and is not to be construed as requiring production of the antibody by any particular method. For example, the monoclonal antibodies to be used in accordance with the present disclosure may be made by the hybridoma method first described by Kohler & Milstein or may be made by recombinant DNA methods (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,567). "Recombinant" means the antibodies are generated using recombinant nucleic acid techniques in exogeneous host cells. Monoclonal antibodies can be produced using various methods,including without limitation, mouse hybridoma, phage display, recombinant DNA, molecular cloning of antibodies directly from primary B cells, and antibody discovery methods. Monoclonal antibodies may include "chimeric" antibodies (immunoglobulins) in which a portion of the heavy and / or light chain is identical with or homologous to corresponding sequences in antibodies derived from a particular species or belonging to a particular antibody class or subclass, while the remainder of the chain(s) is identical with or homologous to corresponding sequences in antibodies derived from another species or belonging to another antibody class or subclass, as well as fragments of such antibodies, so long as they exhibit the desired biological activity.
[0074] The term "humanized antibody" refers to a type of engineered antibody having its CDRs derived from a non-human donor immunoglobulin, the remaining immunoglobulin-derived parts of the molecule being derived from one (or more) human immunoglobulin(s). In addition, framework support residues may be altered to preserve binding affinity. Methods to obtain "humanized antibodies" are well known to those skilled in the art.
[0075] The terms "isolated" or "purified" refer to a biological molecule free from at least some of the components with which it naturally occurs. Either "Isolated" or "purified," when used to describe the various polypeptides disclosed herein, means a polypeptide that has been identified and separated and / or recovered from a cell or cell culture from which it was expressed. Ordinarily, a purified polypeptide will be prepared by at least one purification step. An "isolated" or a "purified" antibody refers to an antibody which is substantially free of other antibodies having different antigenic a binding specificity.
[0076] The term "immunogenic" refers to substances which elicit or enhance the production of antibodies, T-cells or other reactive immune cells directed against an immunogenic agent and contribute to an immune response in humans or animals. An immune response occurs when an individual produces sufficient antibodies, T-cells and other reactive immune cells against administered immunogenic compositions of the present disclosure to moderate or alleviate the disorder to be treated. While the immunogenic response generally includes both cellular (T cell) and humoral (antibody) arms of the immune response, antibodies directed against therapeutic proteins (anti-drug antibodies, ADA) may consist of IgM, IgG, IgE, and / or IgA isotypes.
[0077] The terms "specific binding", "specifically binds to", or "is specific for a particular antigen or an epitope" means that the binding is measurably different from a non-specific interaction. Specific binding can be measured, for example, by determining binding of a molecule compared to binding of a control molecule, which generally is a molecule of similar structure that does not have binding activity. For example, specific binding can be determined by competition with a control molecule that is similar to the target.
[0078] The term "affinity" refers to a measure of the attraction between two polypeptides, such as antibody / antigen, receptor / ligand, etc. The intrinsic attraction between two polypeptides can be expressed as the binding affinity equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) of a particular interaction. A KD binding affinity constant can be measured, e.g., by Bio-Layer Interferometry,where KD is the ratio of kdis (the dissociation rate constant) to kon (the association rate constant), as KD = kdis / kon.
[0079] Specific binding for a particular antigen or an epitope can be exhibited, for example, by an antibody having a KD for an antigen or epitope of at least about 10-4 M, at least about 10-5 M, at least about 10-6 M, at least about 10-7 M, at least about 10-8 M, at least about 10-9 M, alternatively at least about 10-10 M, at least about 10-11 M, at least about 10-12 M, or greater, where KD refers to the equilibrium dissociation constant of a particular antibody-antigen interaction. Typically, an antibody that specifically binds an antigen will have a KD that is 20-, 50-, 100-, 500-, 1000-, 5,000-, 10,000- or more times greater for a control molecule relative to the antigen or epitope.
[0080] Also, specific binding for a particular antigen or an epitope can be exhibited, for example, by an antibody having a KA or Ka for an antigen or epitope of at least 20-, 50-, 100-, 500-, 1000-, 5,000-, 10,000- or more times greater for the epitope relative to a control, where KA or Ka refers to an association rate of a particular antibody-antigen interaction.
[0081] It is considered by the application that the antibody-like proteins potentially has the advantage over any combination therapy, which often has greater toxicity than a single agent treatment. Bispecific agents, such as bispecific antibody-like proteins as disclosed in the application, may act as a single agent targeting the same antigens as the combination therapy does but with the increased efficacy and response rate and reduced toxicity when compared to the combination therapy. In comparison to the combination therapy using two monoclonal antibodies, bispecific therapeutics such as antibody-like proteins disclosed herein can be less toxic to patients and / or more potent due to the increased binding specificity.
[0082] In one aspect, the application provides a bispecific antibody-like proteins having a N terminal and a C terminal, comprising at least two binding domains, wherein the binding domain comprises a Fab region and a scFv domain. The scFv domain may be attached to either the N terminal or the C terminal of the antibody. The Fab region and the scFv domain each independently have a binding specificity to different proteins in the EGFR family.
[0083] In some embodiments, scFv molecules described herein contain a linker of (GmS)nthat operably links the VH and VL, regardless of the V-region orientation (LH or HL). The remaining positions in the bispecific antibody-like protein may be consist of a human IgG Fc or IgG null Fc heavy chain, VH-CH1-Hinge-CH2-CH3, and its corresponding kappa or lambda light chain, VL-CL. Those scFv domains were genetically linked through a linker of (SGm)n to either N-terminal or C- terminal of IgG heavy chain, resulting in a contiguous ~ 75 kDa heavy chain monomer peptide. When co-transfected with the appropriate light chain, the final symmetric bispecific molecule may be purified through the human IgG Fc (Protein A) and assayed to assess functional activity.
[0084] In one embodiment, the binding domain having the binding specificity to HER2 comprises Trastuzumab, which is given by intravenous infusion as a HER2 inhibitor medication used for the treatment of HER2+ breast cancer.
[0085] In one embodiment, the binding domain having the binding specificity to HER3 comprises MM-lll, a bispecific HER2 and HER3 binding protein. MM-111 is a human serum albumin protein (HSA)-backed bispecific antibody fragment comprises one therapeutic binding to HER3, but its binding to HER2 alone is not sufficient to be considered as a therapeutic binding. In contrast, Trastuzumab comprises one single therapeutic binding to HER2.
[0086] The bispecific antibody-like protein may include an immunoglobulin G (IgG) moiety having at least a light chain and a heavy chain. In one embodiment, the antibody-like protein may include two scFv moieties being covalently connected to either C or N terminals of the heavy or light chains via a linker, such as (Ser-Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly)n linkers, (Gly-Gly-Gly-Gly-Ser)n linkers, (Gly-Gly- Gly-Ser)nlinkers, or (GmS)nor (SGm)nlinkers.
[0087] It is known that having a single therapeutic agent poses significant challenges due to the selection of binding moieties and the backbone structure that may affect the binding efficiency in vivo and the therapeutic efficacy in patients. For example, ALM is a bispecific antibody targeting HER2 / HER3, which has antiproliferative activity to tumor cells in vitro. But a short circulating half-life makes it an unlikely candidate drug due to rapid renal clearance. These bispecific antibodies may inhibit different receptor-mediated oncogenic signaling simultaneously therefore overcome resistance in EGFR family inhibitor or monoclonal antibody treatment.
[0088] In one embodiment, the binding domain having the binding specificity to HER2 comprises Trastuzumab. Trastuzumab inhibits HER2 phosphorylation and consequently, its downstream signaling pathways (Gijsen et al. 2010; Goel et al. 2015). But not all patients with HER2 overexpression in cancer cells can benefit from trastuzumab therapy due to the initial or acquired resistance (Luque-Cabal et al. 2016). The precise mechanism of the resistance to Trastuzumab remains unclear. Both the HER2 / HER3 heterodimer and its downstream signaling play crucial roles in the tumor resistance and metastasis of HER2-positive cancer (Wang et al. 2016; Yang et al. 2017). Trastuzumab may inhibit ligand-independent HER3 / HER2 interactions rather than blocking HER2 signaling. In fact, many forms of HER2-amplified metastatic cancer, which do not respond to or are eventually resistant to trastuzumab, often recover the phospho-HER3 and PI3K- Akt-mTOR downstream signals (Diaz-Serrano, et al. 2018).
[0089] HER2-targeted bispecific antibodies exhibit significant efficiency in preclinical studies for treating drug-resistant HER2-expressing malignant tumors. HER2-targeted bispecific antibodies include MM-111, ALM, PB4188, and MCLA-128 (McDonagh et al. 2012; Robinson et al. 2008; Geuijen et al. 2018; and Schram et al., 2022). MM-111 targets the HER2 / HER3 heterodimer, blocks heregulin binding, and inhibits downstream signaling pathways. In contrast, Trastuzumab alone had no effect on heregulin-induced paclitaxel resistance. MM-111 has a higher-affinity HER2 arm to target HER2-amplified tumors as compared with its HER3 arm (McDonagh et al. 2012). Upon its binding to HER2-positive cells with high avidity, MM-111 can effectively block submaximal ligand-driven proliferation but not supramaximal activation. This is because the HER2 binding moiety of MM-111 does not have any sustained effect on tumor cell growth whencompared with that of Trastuzumab, which binds to a different epitope in the region IV of HERZ (Neve et al. 2001 / Indeed, the combination therapy of Trastuzumab and MM-111 shows significantly greater activity than either antibody used alone (McDonagh et al. 2012).
[0090] MCLA-128 (Zenocutuzumab, Zeno) is a bispecific humanized immunoglobulin G1 (IgGl) containing two different Fab arms targeting the extracellular domains of HER2 and HER3. A recent clinical study (Schram et al., 2022) reveals that Zeno mediates durable clinical responses in a small group of patients with NRG1 fusion-positive cancers.
[0091] Having a single therapeutic agent poses significant challenges due to the selection of binding moieties and the backbone structure that may affect the binding efficiency in vivo and the therapeutic efficacy in patients. The present application disclosed anti-HER2 / HER3 antibodies characterized by their configurations and domain compositions (see Table 1 and Figure 1). In some embodiments, the antibody-like proteins comprise a monovalent-Fab for binding either HERZ or HER3 as the first binding domain (DI). In some embodiments, one or two scFv domains are linked to the N-terminus of heavy chain variable domain as the second binding domain (D2). In one embodiment the antibody-like proteins comprise anti-HER2 / HER3 monovalent-Fab antibodies having a second Fc linked to the C-terminus of the heavy chain.EXAMPLESExample 1. Anti-HER2 X HER3 Bispecific Monovalent-Fab AntibodiesBispecific monovalent-Fab antibody-like proteins
[0092] A class of bispecific monovalent-Fab antibody-like proteins is characterized by a single heavy chain and a single light chain (Figure 1A). The single heavy chain contains a classic variable heavy (VH) domain linked to human IgGl CHI domain and the variable domains of the heavy (VH) and light chain (VL) form a monovalent Fab region that acts as the first binding domain (DI). The second binding domain (D2) may be a single (monovalent) or double (bivalent) scFv linked to the N-terminal of the heavy chain. The other characteristic feature of this class of antibody-like proteins is the linkage of two inverted IgGl Fc elements that include hinge, CH2 domain, CH3 domain separated by a 30-residue flexible (GSSSS)e linker. The second hinge, immediately following the linker, has the N-terminal five residues removed so that it only contains the two cysteine residues involved in the typical interchain disulfide bonds found in normal human IgGl molecules. In this way, the second Fc may stabilize the structure of this class of atypical antibodies by folding two Fc together for the formation of interchain disulfide bonds in the absence of heavy chain dimerization (Figure 1A). With its compact structure, the antibody-like protein may afford to be a bispecific antibody comprising a monovalent binding specificity (DI) and a monovalent or multivalent binding specificity (D2).Anti-HER2 (IV) X HER3 antibody-like proteins
[0093] To identify potent therapeutics for treating HER2 / HER3-expressing cancer, a group of 8 anti-HER2(IV)XHER3 antibody-like proteins was constructed on the monovalent-Fab platform (see Table 1 and Figure IB). The sequences encoding HERZ and HER3-binding domains wereadopted from that of Trastuzumab (specific to HER2 domain IV) and MM-111 (specific to HER3). The antibody-like protein heavy chain consists of VH, CHI, hinge, CH2, CH3, 30aa linker, hinge, CH3, and CH2 from human IgGl or lgG2.
[0094] SI-71MM7 and SI71MM4 were created as anti-HER2 / HER3 monospecific control antibodies, respectively. SI-71MX21 and SI-71MX20 were created to compare the effect of HER3 monovalent and bivalent binding. SI-71MX19 and SI-71MX41 were created to test the mutational effect of VH-VL pairing where DI is HER3-specific and D2 is HER2-specific. Conversely, SI-71MX32 and SI-71MX40 were created to test the mutational effect of VH-VL pairing where DI is HER2- specific and D2 is HER3-specific. From another perspective, SI-71MM4, SI-71XM21, and Sl- 71XM20 are characterized by having a monovalent anti-HER2 Fab region, whereas SI-71MM7, Sl- 71XM19, SI-71MX41, SI-71MX32, and SI-71MX40 are characterized by having a monovalent anti- HER3 Fab region (Figure IB). Collectively, these anti-HER2 / HER3 antibody-like proteins characterized by both monovalent-Fab and single chain Fc can be generated by co-transfecting appropriate a light chain.Salt bridge engineering for antibody-like protein stabilization
[0095] The anti-HER2XHER3 bispecific antibody-like protein in the monovalent-Fab platform may be more highly aggregated following initial protein A purification than bispecific antibodies or antibody-like proteins in some other structural formula. It was postulated that the aggregation could be due to improper pairing of VH and VL domains during expression. The examination of Trastuzumab / MM-111 Fvs reveals that most VH / VL interface residues are bulky hydrophobics. Both Trastuzumab and MM-111 Fvs contain contacts between Q39 of the VH and Q38 of the VL (Kabat numbering, Figure 2A). Mutating these polar but uncharged Gin residues to charged residues could form salt bridge. Importantly, reversing the charge orientation (VH+ / VL- versus VH- / VL+) could favor the correct pairing while disfavoring the incorrect chain pairing (Figure 2B). Used Discovery Studio to predict stability of all charge mutants to determine which are most likely to stabilize the correct pairings and destabilize the incorrect pairings. For this purpose, Sl- 71XM41 and SI-71XM40 were created to optimize SI-71XM19 and SI-71XM20 (i.e., SI-71XM32), respectively (Figure IB).Example 2. Generation of anti-HER2 X HER3 antibody-like proteins
[0096] Genes encoding antibody heavy and light chains (preceded by Kozak and secretory signal peptide) were cloned into pTT5 vector using standard molecular biology techniques. As shown in Table 1 and Figure 1, this class of anti-HER2XHER3 monovalent-Fab antibody-like protein contains a heavy chain consisting of a standard variable heavy (VH) domain fused to human IgGl CHI domain and two IgGl Fc elements (hinge, CH2 domain, CH3 domain) separated by a 30- residue flexible (GSSSS)g linker. The second hinge, immediately following the linker, has the N- terminal five residues removed so that it only contains the two cysteine residues involved in the typical interchain disulfide bonds found in normal human IgGl molecules; thus, this single chain Fc (scFc) folds properly and binds to protein-A. The N-terminal cysteine in the first hinge isinvolved in interchain disulfide bond between a light and scFc heavy chain. Co-transf ection of a scFc heavy chain with a normal antibody light chain results in a monovalent Fab-Fc that may be purified by protein-A affinity chromatography. Single-chain variable fragments (scFv) may be fused to the N-terminus of the scFc heavy chain to create bispecific, monovalent-Fab antibodylike proteins. Resulting antibody-like proteins will be monovalent for the Fab binding domain and either monovalent or bivalent for the other binding domain depending on whether single or tandem scFv's are fused to the N-terminus. SI-71MM4, SI-71XM21, and SI-71XM20 were generated as exemplary anti-HER2 monovalent-Fab antibody-like proteins characterized by linking anti-HER3 scFV to the N-terminus of the heavy chain, whereas SI-71MM7, SI-71MX19, Sl- 71MX41, SI-71MX32, and SI-71MX40 were generated as exemplary anti-HER3 monovalent-Fab antibody-like proteins characterized by having a HER2 binding scFv domain linked to the heavy chain (Figure IB).
[0097] The antibody-like protein were expressed by transiently transfecting the expression plasmids for heavy and light chains in the ExpiCHO system (Thermo Fisher). Briefly, 5.6pg of each expression plasmid was brought to 2.4ml with OptiPRO SFM medium containing 33.8pg sheared herring sperm carrier DNA. 2.2ml of OptiPRO SFM medium containing 192pl Expifectamine CHO reagent was added to the DNA and incubated at room temperature for 5 minutes. The resulting mixture was then added to 60ml ExpiCHO cells at 6xl06cells / ml in a 250ml Erlenmeyer flask and incubated at 37°C, 5% CO2, 150rpm. Cells were fed with 21ml ExpiCHO feed and 360 pl of CHO enhancer at 24 hours post-transfection and shifted to 32°C, 5% CO2, 150rpm. Cells were fed again at 48 hours post-transfection with 21ml ExpiCHO feed. Culture supernatant was harvested 9 days post-transfection, spun for 20min at 7500rpm to pellet the cells and then passed through a 0.2mm filter. Expression titer was quantitated using biolayer interferometry on an Octet384 system with protein A sensors and a standard curve prepared with purified antibody-like proteins.
[0098] Proteins were purified from the harvested supernatant using a 5-ml MabSelect PrismA protein-A column (Cytiva). The column was equilibrated with phosphate-buffered saline. The supernatant was then passed through the column at a flow rate of 5 ml / min. The column was washed with 25ml PBS. Protein was then eluted by passing 15ml of 50 mM sodium acetate, pH 3.5 through the column. The eluted protein was immediately neutralized by addition of l / 10thvolume of IM sodium acetate, pH7.0.
[0099] Immediately after first-step protein-A or His tag purification, proteins were analyzed by analytical SEC using Waters Acquity UPLC H-Class with ACQUITY UPLC® Protein BEH SEC 200A, 4.6mm x 150mm, 1.7 pm column. PBS (125 mM sodium phosphate, 137 mM sodium chloride, pH 6.8) was used as mobile phase for 10-minute runs at 0.3 ml / min, injecting 15 pg protein. Proteins were further purified by preparative SEC using Superdex Increase 10 / 300 GL column in mobile phase of 25 mM sodium acetate, 125 mM NaCI, pH 5.5, ultimately to be buffer-exchangedinto 25 mM sodium acetate, 125 mM NaCI, 10% sucrose, pH 5.5. Final samples contained >95% protein of interest as assessed by analytical SEC and were used for subsequent assays.Example 3. Characterization of anti-HER2 X HER3 bispecific antibody-like protein
[0100] Biolayer interferometry (Octet) binding assays were performed on an Octet384 instrument to quantify binding kinetics of antibody-like proteins to HER2 and HER3. For affinity experiments, the antibody-like protein was captured to anti-human Fc (AHC) sensor tips by loading for 150 seconds at 75nM. After a 60-second baseline step, a 180-second association phase with serial dilutions (0-100 nM for HER2; 0-400 nM for HER3; 1:2 dilution factor) of His- tagged HER2 or HER3 (expressed and purified in-house) in assay buffer (phosphate-buffered saline containing 1% BSA, 0.05% Tween20) was performed, followed by a 300-second dissociation phase in assay buffer. Regeneration was achieved using 10 mM glycine, pH 1.5. For avidity experiments, biotinylated HER3 was captured to streptavidin sensors by loading for 150 seconds at 2 pg / ml. After a 60-second baseline step, a 180-second association phase with serial dilutions (0-100 nM) of test antibody-like protein in assay buffer was performed, followed by a 300-second dissociation phase in assay buffer. Binding curves were globally fit to a 1:1 model to extract the dissociation constants, KD, and kinetic association and dissociation rates.
[0101] Protein stability is a key parameter defined by the difference in free energy between the folded and unfolded states. For protein therapeutics, stability may impact immunogenicity, pharmacokinetics, and even efficacy, and reduction of aggregation can help to develop therapeutics that are easier to manufacture and safer for patients. In addition, expression efficiency and protein yield directly determine the cost of protein therapeutics. If proteins can be more efficiently expressed to reach higher titers and increased yield of purified protein, manufacturing costs can be reduced significantly.
[0102] After transient expression in ExpiCHO cells, titer of antibody-like proteins was quantitated using biolayer interferometry. The data shown in Table 2 demonstrate that all proteins expressed in the ExpiCHO expression system, indicating they are stable enough to be efficiently produced. For the bispecific, monovalent Fab antibody-like proteins a general trend was observed in which decreasing titers correspond to increasing numbers of binding domains. For example, SI-71MM4 (anti-HER2 Fab only) had higher titer than SI-71XM21 (anti-HER2 Fab plus one anti-HER3 scFv). SI-71XM20, containing the anti-HER2 Fab and tandem anti-HER3 scFv's, had even lower titer. Even though the titer for SI-71XM41 (salt bridge variant) was slightly lower than SI-71XM19, introduction of salt bridge mutations did not dramatically change expression titers.
[0103] Immediately following first-step protein A purification, antibody-like proteins were evaluated for stability and aggregation by analytical size-exclusion chromatography on a Waters UPLC system. For the anti-HER2 / HER3 monovalent-Fab antibody-like proteins containing a monovalent anti-HER2 Fab region, an unexpected phenomenon was observed. As shown in Table 2, SI-71XM20, which has tandem anti-HER3 scFv domains, had a larger percentage of the protein of interest ( POI ) after first step purification than SI-71XM21, which has a single anti-HER3scFv domain. This larger %POI is due to lower amounts of aggregated high molecular weight (HMW) species. SI-71XM19 displayed higher percentage of high molecular weight species than SI-71XM41, its salt bridge mutation variant. SI-71XM32 contained over 65% high molecular weight species. Its salt bridge mutation variant, SI-71XM40 had a dramatically lower percentage of high molecular weight aggregate. The data suggests that the salt bridge mutations are indeed stabilizing the correct paring of V domains during expression and initial purification.Example 4. Octet binding affinity of anti-HER2 X HER3 antibody-like protein
[0104] The anti-HER2 / HER3 antibody-like proteins share the characteristic structural features of monovalent Fab and single chain Fc region (Figure IB). Under these unified features, the anti- HER2 X HER3 bispecific antibody-like proteins may be divided into two groups based on the location of HER2-binding domain at DI (HER2 / D1) and D2 (HER2 / D2), respectively. To analyze the structure-function relationship, biolayer interferometry was used to evaluate the binding affinity of each antibody to HER2 and HER3. As expected, the anti-HER2 monospecific antibodylike protein, SI-71MM4, showed the binding specificity to HER2 but not HER3, whereas the anti- HER3 monospecific antibody-like protein, SI-71MM7, showed the binding specificity to HER3 but not HER2 (Figure 3A). All anti-HER2 X HER3 bispecific antibody-like proteins displayed their binding affinity toward both HER2 and HER3 (Figure 3B, 3C, 3D, and Table 3). To compare the affinity of monovalent and bivalent binding to HER2 and HER3, bivalent monospecific antibodies, Trastuzumab (SI-4C12) and MM111 (SI-1C16), were used as controls and the results were shown in Figure 3E and Table 3).
[0105] To quantify the positional effect of HER2 or HER3 binding domain, the binding affinity KD values were listed in Table 3A and 3B, respectively. Except SI-77XM20, the HER2 / D1 antibodylike proteins, including SI-77MM4, SI-71XM21, SI-71XM32, SI-71XM40, and SI-4C12, showed the binding affinity to HER2 with KD values between 0.967nM (SI-71MM4) and 1.34nM (SI-4C12). Sl- 71MM4 and SI-4C12 are anti-HER2 bivalent monospecific controls. The KD values of SI-71XM21, SI-71XM32, SI-71XM40 were very close, indicating that HER2 / D1 acts independently in this monovalent-Fab bispecific antibody platform as it does in controls. The KD value of SI-71XM20 was 0.003nM, and this 30-fold increase was attributed to a significant decrease in the KOFF value. On the other hand, these HER2 / D1 antibody-like proteins showed the binding affinity to HER3 with KD values between 91.8nM (SI-71XM20) and 236.7nM (SI-71XM21). The HER3 / D1 antibodylike proteins, including SI-71MM7, SI-71XM19, SI-71XM41, and SI-1C16, showed the binding affinity to HER3 with KDvalues between 147nM (SI-71XM19) and 364.7nM (SI-MM7), of which Sl- 71MM7 is the monovalent monospecific control, indicating the increase in valency, either HER2 or HER3, improves HER3 binding affinity. The HER3 / D1 bispecific antibody-like proteins, Sl- 71XM19 and SI-71XM41, showed the KD values of binding HER2 at 0.93nM and l.lnM, respectively, which is comparable to that of the HER2 / D1 antibody-like proteins except Sl- 77XM20. These data indicate that, while the MM-111 derived HER3 binding domain may exhibit low affinity in the monovalent-Fab structure (SI-71MM7), a bivalent antibody-like proteinsignificantly improves the binding affinity in two ways. First, a bivalent HER3 / D1 in SI-1C16 and a bivalent of HER3 / D1 and HER2 / D2 improve the binding affinity to KD value of 168nM and 0.93nM, respectively. And second, the synergy of HER2 and HER3 binding in the monova lent-Fab setting was unexpected but clearly demonstrated in SI-71XM20, which exhibits the lowest KD values for both HER2 and HER3 binding.Example 5. Octet binding avidity for anti-HER2 X HER3 antibody-like protein
[0106] To assess the avidity of SI-71XM21 and SI-71XM20 antibody-like proteins for HER3, biolayer interferometry was used. In contrast to the 'affinity' experiment, which used AHC sensors to measure binding of immobilized antibodies to HER3 in solution, this assay used streptavidin (SA) sensors to measure binding of immobilized biotinylated HER3 to the antiboy in solution. Therefore, the experiment mimics the avidity effect that is observed when proteins are present on a surface such as the cell membrane. SI-71XM20 and SI-71XM21 are HER3 / D2 antibody-like proteins with either one or two anti-HER3 scFv domains. SI-71XM21 showed relatively weak avidity (112.8nM) and low binding response (0.295nm) to immobilized HER3, whereas SI-71XM20 shows excellent avidity (1.7nM) and increased binding response (0.881nm) to immobilized HER3 (Figure 4 and Table 4). This avidity effect might overcome the intrinsic low affinity of this MM-lll-derived scFv allowing for tight binding to tumor cells that overexpress HER3, while binding less to cells with lower levels of HER3 surface expression.Example 6. The anti-proliferation effect of anti-HER2 X HER3 antibody-like proten Breast cancer cells (BT-474)
[0107] To test the effect of anti-HER2 X HER3 bispecific antibody-like proteins on growth of breast cancer cells, HER2- and HER3-expressing BT-474 cells were incubated with varying concentrations of test antibody-like proteins and proliferation was measured using Alamar blue.
[0108] The breast ductal carcinoma cell line BT-474 was purchased from ATCC (cat #HTB-20) and was maintained in Hybri-Care medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum at 37°C with 5% CO?. BT-474 cells were detached from flasks with trypsin and diluted to 1.2xl05cells / ml in medium + 1% FBS. 50p.l of cell suspension (6000 cells) was seeded to interior 60 wells of 96-well tissue culture plates. Outer wells were filled with 300pl sterile H2O to minimize evaporation in interior wells. Cells were allowed to adhere for 4 hours at 37°C, 5% CO2. Antibodies or antibodylike proteins to be tested were diluted to 2X final concentration in Hybri-Care medium + 1% FBS. SOpil of test antibodies were added to each well for a total volume of 100p.l per well. Each antibody or antibody-like protein was tested in triplicate at the following final concentrations: lOOnM, 25nM, 6.25nM, 1.563nM, 0.391nM, 0.098nM, 0.024nM, 0.006nM, and 0.0015nM. Each plate contained two antibodies or antibody-like proteins at those concentrations tested in triplicate. Six control wells per plate contained cells with medium only. Immediately following addition of test compounds, lOp.1 alamar blue (Thermo Fisher cat# DAL1100) was added to three of the medium only control wells on each plate. Cells were incubated for 2 hours at 37°C, 5% CO2. Following the two-hour incubation, llOpI sample from each of the control wells wasremoved and placed in a black, opaque 96-well plate. This plate was centrifuged for 5 minutes at 2000RPM to remove any bubbles. Fluorescence was then measured (excitation = 535nm, emission = 595nm) on a Molecular Devices FilterMax F5 microplate reader. Measured control fluorescence values (Cstart) serve as the baseline to measure assay endpoint proliferation. Plates were returned to 37°C, 5% CCh for 7 days (168 hours). Following incubation, 10|il Alamar blue was added to each test well as well as the other three control (medium only) wells. Following 2 hours incubation at 37°C, 5% CO2, fluorescence was measured as described above. Endpoint control fluorescence values (Cend) and test well fluorescence values (Tend) were used to calculate the % of control proliferation using the following formula:% of control proliferation = ((Tend-Cstart) / (Cend-Cstart)*100
[0109] Data points were analysed by GraphPad Prism and inhibition curves were fitted by nonlinear regression [log(i nhi bitor) vs. response, 4 parameters] and IC50 values were calculated.
[0110] Given the difference in their binding affinity to HER2 and HER3, the structure and valency affect the function of SI-71XM21, SI-71XM20, and SI-71XM19. Specifically, the pairing of anti- HER2 / D1 with anti-HER3 / D2 or anti-HER2 / D2 with anti-HER3 / Dl led to the different degrees of effectiveness. Indeed, all three antibody-like proteins showed antiproliferative activity with double-digit IC50 values and varying % efficacy. And, SI-71XM21 displayed higher efficacy, which is consistent with the synergy effect due to HER3 and HER2 binding (Figure 5 and Table 5).Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cells (FaDu)
[0111] HER2 expression in breast cancer may be different from HER2 expression in head neck cancer. For example, gene amplification in breast cancer leads to high levels of HER2 overexpression, which is much less in head and neck cancer resulting in lower overall expression levels. HER2-targeting therapy has been effective in most malignancies, including breast cancer, where HER2 overexpression is present. However, HER2 mutations and gene amplifications are relatively rare in head and neck cancer. FaDu is a cell line isolated from a hypopharyngeal tumor of a squamous cell carcinoma patient and is widely used head and neck cancer cells for research. A comparative study was conducted to evaluate the effects of SI-71XM41 and SI-71XM40 on the proliferation of HER2 / HER3 double positive FaDu cells. Both SI-71XM41 and SI-71XM40 achieved the maximum anti-proliferation activity at a drug concentration as low as InM and O.lnM, respectively, while their parental antibodies, MM-111 and Trastuzumab showed the overlapping activity at approximately lOOnM (Figure 6A and 6B). Moreover, each pair of SI-71XM41 and Sl- 71XM19 or SI-71XM40 and SI-71XM32 (with the same amino acid sequence as that of SI-71XM20) displayed overlapping curves of anti-proliferation activities (Figure 6C and 6D), indicating that the salt bridge mutation provides none or a minor advantage in terms of anti-proliferative activity. Thus, SI-71XM20 and SI-71XM40 were constructed based on the monovalent-Fab bispecific antibody-like protein platform and were optimized for inhibiting cell proliferation of HER2 / HER3-expressing cancer cells, such as breast cancer and head and neck cancer.Implication to other types of cancers
[0112] To evaluate the binding activity of SI-71XM41 and SI-71XM40 to other types of cancer, a panel of cancer cell lines were used for indications including breast cancer (SK-BR-3), pancreatic cancer (CFPAC-1), lung cancer (NCI-H358, Oka-C-1, and COR-L279), endometrial cancer (Ishikawa), liver cancer (HepG2), epidermal cancer (A-431), colon cancer (Colo-320). Each gMFI APC signal supposedly correlates with the density of antibody expression per cell. Collectively, there seems to be a consistent pattern of higher average gMFI signal by SI-71XM41 than the average gMFI signal by SI-71XM40 with Trastuzumab expressing an intermediate MFI signal. This pattern repeats for all indications even though the previously characterized two cell lines, BT-474 and FaDu, express highest and lowest average gMFI signals, respectively. Thus, both SI-71XM41 and SI-71XM40 are candidate therapeutics for treating the indications of these cancer cell lines.TABLESTable 1.
