Abstract
Description
LIPID NANOPARTICLES COMPRISING CODING RNA MOLECULES FOR USE IN GENE EDITING AND AS VACCINES AND THERAPEUTIC AGENTS TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure generally relates to the field of nucleic acid lipid nanoparticle (LNP) compositions and delivery thereof for use as vaccines and / or therapeutics for the treatment of disease. The disclosure further relates to compositions comprising LNPs formulated with coding RNAs, including linear and / or circular mRNAs, for the delivery of encoded vaccine antigens and / or therapeutic proteins for the vaccination against infectious agents and / or treatment of disease, including infectious disease and cancer. BACKGROUND
[0002] There are many challenges associated with the delivery of nucleic acids to affect a desired response in a biological system, such as an immune response or the production of a therapeutically beneficial protein to treat a disease. Nucleic acid-based therapeutics and vaccines have enormous potential but there remains a need for more effective delivery of nucleic acids to appropriate sites within a cell or organism in order to realize this potential.
[0003] Nucleic acid-based therapeutics and vaccines are generally composed of DNA or RNA. DNA is known to be relatively stable and easy to handle, however, the use of DNA bears the risk of undesired insertion into a cell’s genome which potentially may produce mutagenic events. As a further concern, the delivery of DNA is associated with unwanted immunogenicity and the production of anti-DNA antibodies. Yet another concern in the use of DNA is the limited expression level of the encoded peptide or protein that is achievable due to the requirement that the administered DNA must first enter the nucleus to undergo transcription prior to translation into a desired protein product (e.g., antigen or therapeutic protein).
[0004] In contrast to DNA, the use of RNA is substantially safer because RNA does not involve the risk of being integrated into the genome of a transfected cell, thus eliminating the concern that the introduced genetic material will disrupt the normal functioning of an essential gene or cause a mutation. In addition, RNA-based agents do not require extraneous promoter sequences for effective expression of an encoded protein and are also less immunogenic than DNA-based agents, in part because RNA has a relatively short half-life unlike DNA. In addition, while DNA must enter the nuclease to perform its function, RNA performs its function outside of the nucleus and is therefore more efficient.
[0005] Despite the advantages of using RNA-based therapeutics and vaccines, the stability of RNA (e.g., mRNA) is far lower than DNA, especially when it reaches the cytoplasm of a cell and is exposed to RNA-degrading enzymes. In addition, the presence of a hydroxyl group on the second carbon of the sugar moiety in RNA causes steric hindrance that prevents the RNA from forming a more stable double helix structure like in the case of DNA, thus making RNA more prone to hydrolytic degradation than DNA.
[0006] To circumvent these challenges, delivery of RNA vaccines (e.g., mRNA vaccines) and therapeutics has recently focused on the use of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). Indeed, LNPs have emerged as the most promising nonviral delivery vehicle for exogenous mRNA (see e.g., Guan et al., “Nanotechnologies in delivery of mRNA therapeutics using nonviral vector-based delivery systems,” Gene Ther, 24 (2017), pp.133-143). The LNP is a complex nanostructured body that provides protection to payload RNA molecules encapsulated within from the harshly degrading nuclease environment in vivo while facilitating intracellular delivery. LNPs are formed through self-assembly by combining the RNA payload with several lipid components, including an ionizable lipid that plays a central role in delivery efficacy (e.g., Miao et al., “Delivery of mRNA vaccines with heterocyclic lipids increases anti-tumor efficacy by STING-mediated immune cell activation,” Nat. Biotechnol., 27 (2019), pp.1174-1185). Entrapment of RNA is achieved by mixing RNA with lipids at an acidic pH at which the ionizable lipid is positively charged, thus ensuring a charge-driven interaction with the negatively charged RNA molecules (e.g., Mindy et al., “Mechanism of macromolecular structure evolution in self-assembled lipid nanoparticles for siRNA delivery,” Langmuir, 20 (2014), pp.4613-4622). The pH is then adjusted to above the pKa of the ionizable lipid, which results in a near-neutral surface charge desirable for clinical administration (see Id.). In addition, the incorporation of a pegylated lipid into the mixture achieves a sterically stabilized core shell nanoparticle useful for clinical applications as vaccines and / or therapeutics.
[0007] In spite of the development of LNPs, the delivery of RNA payloads to cells in vivo in a targeted manner that also allows for sufficient levels of protein production (e.g., production of vaccine antigens or therapeutic proteins) remains an important and significant challenge.
[0008] Genome editing tools encompass a diverse set of technologies that can make many types of genomic alterations in various contexts. These technologies have evolved over the last couple of decades to provide a range of user-programmable editing tools that include ZFN (zinc finger) nuclease editing systems, meganuclease editing systems, and TALENS (transcription activator-like effector nucleases). The past decade has seen an explosive growth in a new generation of genome editing systems based on components from bacterial immune pathways, including CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) and the associated CRISPR-associated proteins (e.g., CRISPR-Cas9) (Jinek et al., “A programmable dual-RNA-guided DNA endonuclease in adaptive bacterial immunity,” Science, Vol.337 (6096), pp.816-821), meganuclease editors (Boissel et al., “megaTALs: a rare-cleaving nuclease architecture for therapeutic genome engineering,” Nucleic Acids Research 42: pp.2591-2601) and bacterial retron systems (Schubert et al., “High-throughput functional variant screens via in vivo production of single-stranded DNA,” PNAS, April 27, 2021, Vol.118(18), pp.1-10). In particular, CRISPR-Cas9 has been derivatized in numerous ways to expand upon its guide RNA-based programmable double-strand cutting activity to form systems ranging from finding alternative CRISPR Cas nuclease enzymes having different PAM requirements and cutting properties (e.g., engineered Cas9 proteins and other naturally-occurring Cas9 homologs,including, but not limited to, Cas12a, Cas12f, Cas13a, and Cas13b, and their engineered variants) to base editing (Komor et al., “Programmable editing of a target base in genomic DNA without double- stranded DNA cleavage,” Nature, May 19, 2016, 533 (7603); pp.420-424 [cytosine base editors or CBEs] and Gaudelli et al., “Programmable base editing of A-T to G-C in genomic DNA without DNA cleavage,” Nature, Vol.551, pp.464-471 [adenine base editors or ABEs]) to prime editing (Anzalone et al., “Search-and-replace genome editing without double-strand breaks or donor DNA,” Nature, Dec 2019, 576 (7789): pp.149-157) to twin prime editing (Anzalone et al., “Programmable deletion, replacement, integration and inversion of large DNA sequences with twin prime editing,” Nature Biotechnology, Dec 9, 2021, vol.40, pp.731-740) to epigenetic editing (Kungulovski and Jeltsch, “Epigenome Editing: State of the Art, Concepts, and Perspective,” Trends in Genetics, Vol.32, 206, pp.101-113) to CRISPR-directed integrase editing (Yarnell et al., “Drag-and-drop genome insertion of large sequences without double-stranded DNA cleavage using CRISPR-directed integrases,” Nature Biotechnology, Nov 24, 2022, (“PASTE”)).
[0009] While the expansion of genome editing tools has exploded, the development of safe and effective gene editing tool delivery systems has lagged behind. There remain numerous challenges associated with the delivery of gene editing tools—including, but not limited to, CRISPR- Cas9 and alternative Cas nuclease editors, retron editors, base editors, prime editors, twin prime editors, epigenetic editors, and integrase editors—to achieve safe and effective therapeutic application of such tools in cells and patients for treating disease and / or otherwise modifying the nucleotide sequence of a target nucleic acid molecule (e.g., a gene or genome) particularly as it relates to delivery in vivo. That said, the use of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) has emerged as a leading delivery option for the safe, effective, and targeted delivery of gene editing tools to target tissues and cells. However, there remains a need for improved LNPs, including better performing ionizable lipids, that will enhance the targeted delivery of LNP-based gene editing tools. Preferably, such improved LNPs would protect payloads from degradation and clearance while achieving targeted delivery, be suitable for systemic or local delivery, and provide delivery of RNA cargo, including those relating to a wide variety of gene editing tools, such as those mentioned above. In addition, such improved LNP-based therapeutics should exhibit low toxicity and provide an adequate therapeutic index, such that patient treatment at an effective dose of the LNP minimizes risk to the patient while maximizing therapeutic benefit.
[0010] Thus, improved LNPs that enhance the delivery of LNP-based RNA vaccines and therapeutics to cells, tissues, and bodily sites and which are more protective of RNA payloads would advance the art. Preferably, such improved LNPs would protect RNA payloads from degradation and clearance while achieving delivery, be suitable for ex vivo or in vivo delivery , and provide delivery of any target, including RNA in linear and / or circular and / or modified form.. In addition, such improved LNP-based RNA vaccines and therapeutics should exhibit low toxicity and provide an adequate therapeutic index, such that patient treatment at an effective dose of the LNP minimizes risk to thepatient while maximizes therapeutic benefit. The present disclosure provides these and related advantages. SUMMARY

[0044] Also described herein are LNP compositions comprising gene editing systems for use in treating disease and / or otherwise modifying the sequence and / or expression of target nucleotide sequences. The disclosure provides LNPs capable of delivering a gene editing system to a target organ, tissue, and / or cell. The gene editing systems may be delivered to cells under in vitro or ex vivoconditions and to organs, tissues, or cells under in vivo conditions (e.g., administered to a subject in an effective amount).
[0045] The disclosure also provides in various aspects therapeutic or pharmaceutical compositions comprising LNPs comprising gene editing systems or one or more components thereof. The gene editing systems may comprise DNA components, RNA components, protein components, nucleoprotein components, polysaccharide components, or combinations thereof. In other aspects, the disclosure provides nucleic acid molecules (e.g., RNA or DNA) that encode and / or constitute various componentry of the deliverable gene editing systems contemplated herein. In addition, other aspects of the disclosure provide nucleic acid molecules as components of the herein contemplated gene editing systems, such as, but not limited to plasmids or vectors encoding one or more components of a gene editing system, RNAs encoding one or more components of a gene editing system (e.g., mRNAs coding for a nuclease domain of a gene editing system), and non-coding RNAs (e.g., guide RNAs capable of complexing with and targeting a nucleic acid-programmable DNA binding domain to a specific target nucleotide sequence or a retron ncRNAs).
[0046] In further embodiments, the nucleic acid components (e.g., RNA) may comprise one or more modifications, including chemical modifications (e.g., ribonucleotide analogs, alternative phosphate chain linkers), sequence modification (e.g., relative to a wild type sequence), and / or structural modification (e.g., secondary-folded structures, such as, but not limited to, stem-loops, hairpins, and G-quadruplexes, and tertiary structural elements, such as, but not limited to, helical duplexes and triple-stranded structures).
[0047] The disclosure, in other aspects, describes various protein components (which may be encoded by the nucleic acid components described herein) of the various gene editing systems contemplated herein, including, but not limited to, user-programmable DNA binding proteins and various effector proteins, such as nucleases, polymerases, reverse transcriptases, recombinases, integrases, endonucleases, exonucleases, transposases, and deaminases.
[0048] The disclosure also describes nucleoprotein components of the gene editing systems contemplated herein, such as, but not limited to nuclease-guide RNA complexes. The disclosure also provides methods of modifying the sequence and / or expression level of a target nucleic acid molecule through the delivery and / or administration of an LNP described herein that comprises a gene editing system or components thereof. Still further, the disclosure provides methods of treating a disease by administering a therapeutically effective amount of an LNP-based gene editing system that results in the modification in the sequence and / or expression level of a target nucleic acid molecule (e.g., a disease-associated gene or regulatory sequence, such as a promoter, transcription factor binding site, or gene enhancer site).
[0049] The gene editing systems deliverable by the herein disclosed LNPs can be any type of gene editing system. Without limitation, the gene editing systems contemplated herein can include (A) nucleobase gene editing systems which result in one or more the changes to the sequence of atarget nucleic acid molecule (e.g., a gene or gene regulatory sequence) (sequence modifications may include, but are not limited to, an insertion of one or more base pairs, a deletion of one of more base pairs, a substitution or one or more base pairs, a conversion of a base pair to another base pair (e.g., a G:C pair converted to an A:T pair), an inversion, or a translocation), (B) an epigenetic editing system which results in one or more modifications to the epigenome to bring about an effect on gene expression without altering the sequence of a nucleic acid molecule, and (C) gene editing systems that combine the features of nucleobase editing systems and epigenetic editing systems (e.g., combining components from both types of systems to change the sequence and an epigenomic component with one system).
[0050] Nucleobase editing systems include a wide array of configurations with various combinations of protein functionalities and / or nucleic acid molecule components, all of which are contemplated herein. In general, nucleobase editing systems comprise at least a (i) DNA binding domain that is user-programmable to target a specific sequence in a nucleic acid molecule and optionally (ii) one or more effector domains that facilitate the modification of the sequence of the nucleic acid molecule. User-programmability may comprise amino acid sequence-programmable DNA binding domains (e.g., TALENS, zinc finger-binding domains, meganucleases (or homing endonucleases)) or nucleic acid sequence-programmable DNA binding domains or proteins (“naspDBP”) (e.g., CRISPR-Cas9, CRISPR-Cas12a, CRISPR-Cas12f, CRISPR-Cas13a, CRISPR- Cas13b, or TnpB).
[0051] Similarly, epigenetic editing systems comprise at least a (i) DNA binding domain that targets a specific sequence in a nucleic acid molecule and (ii) one or more effector domains that facilitates the modification of one or more epigenomic features of the nucleic acid molecule.
[0052] Gene editing systems may comprise one or more effector domains that provide various functionalities that facilitate changes in nucleotide sequence and / or gene expression, such as, but not limited to, single-strand DNA binding proteins, nucleases, endonucleases, exonucleases, deaminases (e.g., cytidine deaminases or adenosine deaminases), polymerases (e.g., reverse transcriptases), integrases, recombinases, etc., and fusion proteins comprising one or more functional domains linked together.
[0053] In addition, gene editing systems that utilize a nucleic acid sequence-programmable DNA binding domain or protein (naspDBP) may also comprise one or more non-coding nucleic acids, such as, one or more guide RNAs which complex with the nucleic acid programmable DNA binding protein (naspDBP) and target the complex to a specific nucleotide sequence. In the case of prime editing, the guide RNA may be a prime editing guide RNA (“pegRNA”) which comprises a specialized RNA template molecule that provides a template or coding sequence for a reverse transcriptase of the prime editing system. In some embodiments, the RNA template molecule may be coupled to a guide RNA as an extension arm at the 5’ or 3’ end of the guide RNA. In other embodiments, the RNA template molecule may be provided in trans as a separate molecule in amanner such that the RNA template molecule may itself become localized and associated with the target sequence and / or the gene editing system at the site of editing. In some embodiments, co- localization of an in trans RNA template molecule may be achieved with an aptamer or other RNA structure which binds to a binding partner that is coupled to, integrated with, or otherwise associated with the editing complex.
[0054] In the case of editing systems comprising a nucleic acid sequence-programmable DNA binding protein (naspDBP), such as a CRISPR-Cas9 or CRISPR-Cas12a nuclease, appropriate guides may be designed and synthesized using methods, software, and commercial sources which are well known to those having ordinary skill in the art such that guide RNAs for any given naspDBP may be obtained without undue experimentation.

[0337] In the case of RNA medicines, the payload can be one or more RNA molecules, including coding RNA (e.g., linear or circular mRNA) or non-coding RNA (e.g., guide RNA, pegRNA, or retron ncRNA).
[0338] In various other embodiments, the payloads can include any type of nucleic acid molecule, including coding RNA molecules (e.g., mRNA), guide RNAs for editing systems (e.g., Cas9 guides, Cas12a guides, base editor guides, and prime editor guides), other non-coding RNAs relating to editing systems (e.g., retron ncRNAs), small RNAs (sRNAs)—which refer to a wide variety of polymeric RNA molecules that are generally less than 200 nucleotides in length with various functionalities, such as RNA interference, and include small-interfering RNA (siRNA), microRNAs (miRNA), piwi-interacting RNA (piRNA), repeat associated small interfering RNA (rasiRNA), small nuclear RNA (snRNA or U-RNA), small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA), small rDNA- derived RNA (srRNA), rRNA fragment (tRF), and Y RNA-derived small RNA, tRNA, rRNA, and self-amplifying RNA (saRNA)—and DNA molecules, such as DNA vectors, DNA plasmids, HDR donors, oligonucleotides, primers, etc., and chimeric molecules comprising both DNA and RNA. The cargo nucleic acid molecules may be single-stranded or double-stranded. Such nucleic acid cargomay comprise exactly one molecule. Such nucleic acid cargo may comprise exactly two molecules. Such nucleic acid cargo may comprise exactly three molecules. Such nucleic acid cargo may comprise 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 distinct molecules. Such nucleic acid cargo may comprise 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, or 20 distinct molecules. Such nucleic acid cargo may comprise between 1-25, or 5-30, or 10-35, or 20-40, or up to 100, or more distinct molecules.
[0339] In various other aspects, the LNPs described herein may be used to deliver any payload of interest to a biological target, e.g., to a cell or a bodily tissue. The term “payload” refers to an active substance (i.e., not limited to RNA or DNA), such as a small molecule, polypeptide, peptide, carbohydrate, or nucleic acid molecule, and includes, without limitation, mRNA molecules (including linear and circular mRNA) or non-coding RNA molecules (e.g., guide RNAs, pegRNAs, retron ncRNAs) which are encapsulated within the LNPs described herein. In some embodiments, the LNP cargo may comprise an RNP or ribonucleoprotein, such as a gene editing nuclease protein complexed with a cognate guide RNA.
[0340] In various embodiments, the payload is an RNA molecule, which may be linear or circular and may comprise one or more functional nucleotide sequences of interest, which may include, but are not limited to coding and non-coding nucleotide sequences. In various embodiments, the non-coding nucleotide sequences may comprise regulatory elements that influence RNA post- transcriptional processing, nuclear translation control sequences, and sequences which encode one or more biological products of interest, e.g., a therapeutic protein or antigen, among other sequence elements that may impact the functioning of the RNA or its encoded products. As used herein, the term “coding region of interest” or “product coding region” or the like may be used to refer to the encoded one or more biological products of interest. Equivalently, a product coding region may be referred to as a “product expression sequence.”
[0341] In various embodiments herein, the specification refers to “originator constructs” (or “originator polynucleotide constructs”) and “benchmark constructs” (or “benchmark polynucleotide constructs”), which are embodiments of payloads comprising nucleic acid molecules, i.e., embodiments of linear and / or circular mRNA payloads, and which may comprise a product coding region that encodes a polypeptide, such as, but not limited to an antigen or a therapeutic protein or to components of a gene editing system (e.g., a programmable nuclease).
[0342] FIG.2 shows an example of an originator construct 100, which may be a linear or circular mRNA molecule. The originator construct 100 may include at least one product coding region 10 which is or encodes a polypeptide of interest, such as, but not limited to a vaccine antigen or a therapeutic protein. The originator construct 100 may contain 1 or 2 flanking regions 20. The flanking regions 20 may be located 5' to the product coding region 10 and / or 3' to the product coding region 10. In some instances the originator construct 100 does not contain a flanking region 20. The flanking region 20 of the originator construct 100 may include at least one regulatory region 30. At least oneflanking region 20 of the originator polynucleotide construct 100 may include at least one identifier region 40. The identifier region 40 may be, but is not limited to, a barcode, label, signal and / or tag. Additionally, the identifier region 40 may be located within the product coding region 10 or may be located in the product coding region 10 and at least one flanking region 20.
