Description

[Technical field]

[0001] This application claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 170,383, filed April 2, 2021, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 239,883, filed September 1, 2021, the contents of each of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety herein.

[0002] This application contains a Sequence Listing that has been submitted electronically in ASCII format, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Said ASCII copy, created on March 28, 2022, is named 60792_00054WO01_(TNO-0038-WO)_SL.txt and is 90,527 bytes in size.

[0003] The present disclosure relates to antibodies that bind to the interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor (IL2R) and exhibit agonist activity. The present disclosure further relates to methods of making such antibodies, compositions, including pharmaceutical compositions, that contain such antibodies, and uses of such antibodies and compositions in the treatment of diseases and disorders mediated by the IL2 / IL2R signaling pathway. [Background technology]

[0004] Despite its potent immunoactivating activity and potential to induce durable tumor regression in cancer patients, the success of IL-2 as an immunotherapeutic agent has been limited by severe dose-limiting toxicities. These adverse events are primarily due to preferential uptake of IL-2 by cells expressing the high-affinity, trimeric receptor, IL-2Rαβγ, such as regulatory T (Treg) cells and endothelial cells. The present disclosure relates to antibodies (e.g., multispecific antibodies, multispecific heavy chain-only antibodies, bispecific antibodies, bispecific heavy chain antibodies) that bind to and activate signaling through the dimeric IL-2Rβγ receptor complex expressed on resting T cells and NK cells. By avoiding binding to IL-2Rα, the antibodies described herein abrogate the preferential Treg activation of native IL-2 while maintaining its potent stimulatory effect on other T cell subsets as well as NK cells. Furthermore, the presence of an Fc region in the exemplary antibodies described herein significantly extends the in vivo half-life over that of recombinant IL-2, allowing for more convenient dosing schedules in therapeutic settings. In vivo studies in both mice and cynomolgus monkeys confirmed the in vivo biological activity, broad pharmacokinetics and enhanced safety profile of the exemplary antibodies described herein. Collectively, these results support the use of such antibodies as safe and effective IL-2R agonists and the use of the IL-2 signaling pathway as a therapeutic treatment approach for multiple types of cancer.

[0005] The ability to harness the immune system against tumors is well established, with interleukin-2 (IL-2) being one of the first recombinant proteins successfully used as a treatment for cancer, about 40 years ago. Lotze et al., Journal of Immunology 135(4), 2865-75 (1985); Rosenberg, SAJ Immunol 192, 5451-58 (2014). IL-2 is a master regulator of immune cells, inducing both T cell and natural killer (NK) cell proliferation. However, IL-2 is a pleiotropic cytokine that also induces proliferation of immunosuppressive regulatory T (Treg) cells. Fontenot et al., Nat Immunol 6, 1142-51 (2005). The various functions of IL-2 are determined by the composition of the IL-2 receptor complex subunits expressed on various target cells. Boyman et al., Nat Rev Immunol 12, 180-90 (2012). The high affinity IL-2 receptor complex is composed of IL-2RA (CD25), IL-2RB (CD122) and the common gamma chain receptor IL-2RG (CD132) and is expressed constitutively on CD4+FoxP3+Treg cells and transiently on activated T cells. Waldmann, TA, Nat Rev Immunol 6, 595-601 (2006). The intermediate affinity receptor is composed only of IL-2RB and IL-2RG and is expressed on resting T cells, CD8+memory effector T cells and NK cells. Choudhry, H. et al, Biomed Res Int 2018, 1-7 (2018). Although the IL-2RA subunit is not required for downstream JAK-STAT signaling, its binding with IL-2RB and IL-2RG provides a 100-fold higher affinity for IL-2 compared to the heterodimeric receptor composed only of IL-2RB and IL-2RG. Based on differential binding and cell-specific expression of these receptors, it has been proposed that immunosuppressive Tregs act as a buffer to consume low levels of IL-2, resulting in a threshold effect on IL-2-mediated proliferation of effector lymphocytes. Feinerman, O. et al., Mol Syst Biol 6, 437 (2010).

[0006] Due to its unique signaling properties, low dose IL-2 has been used clinically to stimulate Tregs to treat autoimmunity, while high dose IL-2 has been developed and approved for the treatment of metastatic melanoma and metastatic renal cell carcinoma (Proleukin®), with durable responses observed in 7-12% of patients. McDermott, DF et al., J Clin Oncol 23, 133-141 (2004); Payne, R. et al., J Immunother Cancer 2, 13 (2014); Atkins, MB et al., J Clin Oncol 17, 2105-2105 (1999); Rosenberg, SA et al., Ann Surg 228, 307-319 (1998). However, its short half-life and narrow therapeutic window pose great challenges for the safe and effective use of IL-2 in patients. In particular, Proleukin® has severe side effects including vascular leak syndrome, hypotension and hepatotoxicity that limit its use in cancer immunotherapy. Vascular leak toxicity has been shown to be associated with the expression of high affinity IL-2R on vascular and pulmonary endothelial cells, leading to pulmonary edema. Krieg, C., et al., Proc National Acad Sci 107, 11906-11 (2010). The antitumor effect of Proleukin® is further compromised by its preferential binding to high affinity receptors on Treg cells, blunting its effectiveness as an anticancer treatment. Schwartzentruber, DJ et al., New Engl J Medicine 364, 2119-2127 (2011); Rezvani, K. et al., Blood 108, 1291-1297 (2006). For example, in melanoma patients receiving high-dose IL-2 treatment, costimulatory factor positive (ICOS+) Treg cells were found to be the most proliferating lymphocyte population in the blood after treatment with IL-2, and large numbers of ICOS+ Tregs corresponded to the worst patient outcomes. Sim, GC et al., J Clin Invest 124, 99-110 (2014).

[0007] Due to the pleiotropic nature of native IL-2 and its associated limitations as a therapeutic molecule, there have been considerable efforts to engineer IL-2 variants that reduce dose-limiting toxicity and thereby broaden the therapeutic window. Murer, P. et al., New Biotechnol 52, 42-53 (2019); Arenas-Ramirez, N. et al., Trends Immunol 36, 763-77 (2015). Mutant proteins that avoid preferential activation of high-affinity IL-2R expressing cells such as Tregs and vascular endothelial cells are one approach to achieve this goal. In an effort to generate such molecules, other approaches have involved mutating the IL-2RA binding interface in IL-2, attaching polyethylene glycol to IL-2 proteins, generating synthetic IL-2 proteins, and generating antibodies that block the IL-2RA binding domain. Silva,D.-A.et al.,Nature 565,186-191(2019);Charych,DHet al.,Clin Cancer Res 22,680-690(2016);Arenas-Ramirez,N.et al.,Sci Transl Med 8,367ra166-367ra166(2016);Levin,AMet al.,Nature 484,529-533(2012);Lopes,JEet al.,J Immunother Cancer 8,e000673(2020). As an alternative to IL-2, others have engineered IL-15 variants that bind to the IL-2RB / IL-2RG subunits. The IL-15-specific receptor subunit naturally binds IL-15 in trans from antigen-presenting cells; therefore, active IL-15 recombinant protein requires a single-chain construct expressing both IL-15 and the receptor subunit. Bernett, MJ et al. Abstract 5565:Potency-reduced IL15 / IL15Rα heterodimeric Fc-fusions display enhanced in vivo activity through increased exposure.5565-5565(2018)doi:10.1158 / 1538-7445.am2018-5565.Mutated cytokines have also been fused to antibodies or Fc domains to increase the in vivo half-life of the molecule and localize the cytokine to tumor sites. Murer, P. et al., New Biotechnol 52, 42-53 (2019); Klein, C. et al., Oncoimmunology 6:3 e1277306 (2017); Schliemann, C. et al., Blood 120, 3716-3716 (2012). While some of these engineered proteins have the desired functional activity, many exhibit high levels of in vivo immunogenicity and present challenges with in vivo stability and manufacturing. Brummelen, E. M. J. van et al., Oncotarget 9, 24737-49 (2018); Groot, A. S. Det al., Trends Immunol 28, 482-90 (2007); Schellekens, H., Nephrol Dial Transpl 18, 1257-59 (2003); Verhoef, J. J. F., et al., Drug Discov Today 19, 1945-52 (2014). Thus, generating anti-tumor agonists of the IL-2 pathway with desired biological activity, safety profile and ideal drug-like properties remains a significant challenge in the art.

[0387] In conventional IgG antibodies, the association of the heavy and light chains is due in part to hydrophobic interactions between the light chain constant region and the CH1 constant domain of the heavy chain. There are additional residues in the framework 2 (FR2) and framework 4 (FR4) regions of the heavy chain that also contribute to this hydrophobic interaction between the heavy and light chains.

[0388] However, it is known that the sera of camelids (the suborder Tylopoda, which includes camels, dromedaries and llamas) contain a major type of antibody composed only of paired H chains (heavy chain antibodies or HCAbs).The heavy chain antibodies of Camelidae (Camelus dromedarius, Camelus bactrianus, Lama glama, Lama guanaco, Lama alpaca and Lama vicugna) have a unique structure consisting of a single variable domain (VHH), a hinge region and two constant domains (CH2 and CH3) that are highly homologous to the CH2 and CH3 domains of classical antibodies. These heavy chain antibodies lack the first domain (CH1) of the constant region, which is present in the genome but is spliced ​​out during mRNA processing. The absence of the CH1 domain explains the absence of light chains in heavy chain antibodies, since this domain is the anchor position for the constant domain of the light chain. Such heavy chain antibodies have naturally evolved to confer antigen binding specificity and high affinity by three CDRs from a conventional antibody or a fragment thereof. Muyldermans, 2001; J Biotechnol 74:277-302; Revets et al., 2005; Expert Opin Biol Ther 5:111-124. Cartilaginous fishes such as sharks have also evolved a unique type of immunoglobulin, called IgNAR, which lacks light chain polypeptides and is entirely composed of heavy chains. IgNAR molecules can be engineered by molecular engineering to create variable domains of a single heavy chain polypeptide (vNAR). Nuttall et al.Eur.J.Biochem.270,3543-3554(2003);Nuttall et al.Function and Bioinformatics 55,187-197(2004);Dooley et al.,Molecular Immunology 40,25-33(2003).

[0389] The ability of heavy chain antibodies devoid of light chains to bind antigen was established in the 1960s (Jaton et al. (1968) Biochemistry, 7, 4185-4195). Heavy chain immunoglobulins physically separated from light chains retained 80% of the antigen-binding activity of tetrameric antibodies. Sitia et al. (1990) Cell, 60, 781-790 showed that removal of the CH1 domain from a rearranged mouse μ gene resulted in the production of heavy chain antibodies devoid of light chains in mammalian cell culture. The antibodies produced retained VH binding specificity and effector functions.

[0390] Heavy chain antibodies with high specificity and affinity can be generated against various antigens through immunization (van der Linden, RH, et al. Biochim. Biophys. Acta. 1431, 37-46 (1999)) and VHH moieties can be easily cloned and expressed in yeast (Frenken, LG J, et al. J. Biotechnol. 78, 11-21 (2000)). Their expression, solubility and stability levels are significantly higher than classical F(ab) or Fv fragments. Ghahroudi, M A. et al. FEBS Lett. 414, 521-526 (1997).

[0391] Mice functionally silenced at the lambda (lambda) light chain (L) locus and / or at the lambda and kappa (kappa) light chain loci and antibodies produced by such mice are described in U.S. Patent Nos. 7,541,513 and 8,367,888. Recombinant production of heavy chain antibodies in mice and rats has been reported, for example, in WO 2006008548, U.S. Patent Publication No. 20100122358, Nguyen et al., 2003, Immunology; 109(1), 93-101; Bruggemann et al., Crit. Rev. Immunol.; 2006, 26(5):377-90; and Zou et al., 2007, J Exp Med; 204(13):3271-3283. The generation of knockout rats by embryonic microinjection of zinc finger nucleases is described in Geurts et al., 2009, Science, 325(5939):433. Soluble heavy chain antibodies and transgenic rodents containing heterologous heavy chain loci producing such antibodies are described in U.S. Patents 8,883,150 and 9,365,655. CAR-T structures containing single domain antibodies as binding (targeting) domains are described, for example, in Iri-Sofla et al., 2011, Experimental Cell Research 317:2630-2641 and Jamnani et al., 2014, Biochim Biophys Acta, 1840:378-386.

Surface levels of UniAbs were detected by flow cytometry and reported relative to cells that were not internalized. The observed half-lives ranged from 0.27 h to 0.81 h. As observed here, internalization may be partially dependent on the specific anti-IL2RG arm of the bispecific antibody, since molecules containing the IL2RG_F16B binding sequence were internalized to a greater extent and faster than molecules containing a different anti-IL2RG binding sequence.

[Figure 9] 1 is a table summarizing some properties of the bispecific antibody constructs shown. All constructs were expressed in the ExpiCHO expression system and purified in two steps after heat stress and stability was determined based on percent aggregation by SE-HPLC. Tm and Tagg were measured using the UNcle platform. For the SE-HPLC experiments, 20 μg of protein was run on a TSK gel G3000 5 μm column. [Figure 10A]Panels A-C provide summary data from the mouse model of GVHD. Irradiated NSG mice (5 per treatment group) were each transplanted with 20 million human PBMCs. Animals were then treated twice weekly with either vehicle alone (100 μL), 22 μg rhIL-2 per day or the two indicated bispecific antibody constructs at 1 mg / kg in 100 μL until euthanasia (20% weight loss). Panel A provides an overview of the mouse model of GVHD and the subsequent dosing scheme. Panel B shows the animal weights as a function of time for the indicated experimental groups. Panel C displays the analysis of cells from the spleens of mice in this study harvested 5 days after treatment.

Both of the two tested bispecific antibody constructs (IL2RB_F09C**IL2RG_F16A (BsAb-1) and IL2RB_F09G**IL2RG_F16B (BsAb-2)) showed significantly more proliferating CD8+ T cells compared to rhIL-2 and vehicle controls. CD4+ T cells proliferated to a lesser extent, but a significant increase in proliferating CD4+ T cells was seen in IL2RB_F09G**IL2RG_F16B (BsAb-2) treated mice compared to vehicle controls (Panel C). This data demonstrates that cytokine receptor agonists promote immune effector activation and proliferation in vivo and accelerate GVHD in huPBMC engrafted NSG mice at a rate similar to cytokine controls.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0565] The practice of the present disclosure will employ, unless otherwise indicated, conventional techniques of molecular biology (including recombinant techniques), microbiology, cell biology, biochemistry and immunology, which are within the skill of the art. Such techniques are described in the literature, such as “Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual”, second edition (Sambrook et al., 1989); “Oligonucleotide Synthesis” (MJ Gait, ed., 1984); “Animal Cell Culture” (RIFreshney, ed., 1987); Biology” (FMAusubel et al., eds., 1987, and periodic updates); “PCR: The Polymerase Chain Reaction”, (Mullis et al., ed., 1994); “A Practical Guide to Molecular Cloning” (Perbal Bernard V., 1988); “Phage Display: A Laboratory Manual” (Barbas et al., 2001); Harlow, Lane and Harlow, Using Antibodies:A Laboratory Manual:Portable Protocol No.I,Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (1998); and Harlow and Lane, Antibodies: A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory; (1988).

[0566] Unless otherwise indicated, antibody residues herein are numbered according to the Kabat numbering system (e.g., Kabat et al., Sequences of Immunological Interest. 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md. (1991)).

[0567] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth to provide a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure. However, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that the present disclosure may be practiced without one or more of these specific details. In other instances, well-known features and procedures well known to those skilled in the art have not been described to avoid obscuring the present disclosure.

[0568] All references cited throughout this disclosure, including patent applications and publications, are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. In the event of a discrepancy in definition between a cited reference and a definition provided herein, the definition provided herein shall control.

[0569] Definition: In some embodiments, "about," when used in connection with a measurable numerical variable, refers to the stated value of the variable and all values ​​of the variable that are within the experimental error of the stated value (e.g., within a 95% confidence interval of the mean) or ±10% of the stated value, whichever is greater. In some embodiments, numerical ranges are inclusive of the numbers that define the range.

[0570] Where a range of values ​​is provided, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise, it is understood that each intervening value, to the tenth of the unit of the lower limit between the upper and lower limits of that range, and any other stated or intervening value in that stated range, is encompassed within the disclosure. The upper and lower limits of these smaller ranges may independently be included in the smaller ranges that are also encompassed within the disclosure, subject to any specifically excluded limit in the stated range. Where the stated range includes one or both of the limits, ranges excluding either or both of those included limits are also included in the disclosure.

[0571] By "comprising," it is meant that the recited elements are required in the composition / method / kit, but other elements can be included to form the composition / method / kit etc. in a claim or embodiment.

[0572] "Consisting essentially of" means limiting the scope of the described composition or method to certain materials or steps that do not materially affect the basic and novel characteristics of the disclosure.

[0573] "Consisting of" means excluding from a composition, method, or kit any element, step, or ingredient not specified in the claim or embodiment.

[0574] Antibody residues herein are numbered according to the Kabat numbering system and the EU numbering system. The Kabat numbering system is generally used when referring to residues in the variable domain (approximately residues 1-113 of the heavy chain) (e.g., Kabat et al., Sequences of Immunological Interest. 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md. (1991)). The "EU numbering system" or "EU index" is generally used when referring to residues in the immunoglobulin heavy chain constant region (e.g., the EU index reported in Kabat et al., supra). The "EU index in Kabat" refers to the numbering of residues in the human IgG1 EU antibody. Unless otherwise stated herein, reference to a residue number in the variable domain of an antibody refers to the residue numbering according to the Kabat numbering system. Unless otherwise stated herein, reference to a residue number in the constant domain of an antibody refers to the residue numbering according to the EU numbering system.

[0575] Antibodies, also called immunoglobulins, traditionally comprise at least one heavy chain and one light chain, with the sequences of the amino-terminal domains of the heavy and light chains being variable, and thus commonly referred to as variable region domains or variable heavy (VH) or variable light (VL) domains. The two domains traditionally associate to form a specific binding region, although, as discussed herein, specific binding can also be obtained using the variable sequence of the heavy chain alone, and a variety of non-native structures of antibodies are known and used in the art.

[0576] A "functional" or "biologically active" antibody or antigen-binding molecule (including, for example, heavy chain antibodies and multispecific (e.g., bispecific) antibodies and three-chain antibody-like molecules (TCAs) described herein) is one that is capable of exerting one or more of its native activities in structural, regulatory, biochemical or biophysical events. For example, a functional antibody or other binding molecule, such as a TCA, may have the ability to specifically bind to an antigen, which binding may in turn trigger or alter a cellular or molecular event, such as a signal transduction or enzymatic activity. A functional antibody or other binding molecule, such as a TCA, may block ligand activation of a receptor or may also act as an agonist or antagonist. The ability of an antibody or other binding molecule, such as a TCA, to exert one or more of its native activities depends on several factors, including the proper folding and assembly of the polypeptide chain.

[0577] The term "antibody" herein is used in the broadest sense and specifically includes monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, monomers, dimers, multimers, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), heavy chain antibodies, three-chain antibodies, TCAs, single chain Fvs (scFvs), nanobodies, etc., as well as antibody fragments, so long as they exhibit the desired biological activity. Miller et al (2003) Jour. of Immunology 170:4854-4861. Antibodies can be murine, human, humanized, chimeric, or derived from other species.

[0578] For example, the term "antibody" may refer to a full-length heavy chain, a full-length light chain, an intact immunoglobulin molecule, or an immunologically active portion of any of these polypeptide subunits, i.e., a polypeptide comprising an antigen-binding site that immunospecifically binds to an antigen or a portion thereof of a target of interest, including, but not limited to, a cancer cell or a cell that produces an autoimmune antibody associated with an autoimmune disease. The immunoglobulins disclosed herein may be of any type (e.g., IgG, IgE, IgM, IgD, and IgA), class (e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and IgA2), or subclass of immunoglobulin molecule, including modified subclasses with modified Fc portions that reduce or enhance effector cell activity. The light chain of the antibody may be a kappa light chain (Vkappa) or a lambda light chain (Vlambda). The immunoglobulin may be derived from any species. In one aspect, the immunoglobulin is primarily of human origin.

[0579] As used herein, the term "monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody obtained from a population of substantially homogeneous antibodies, i.e., the individual antibodies constituting the population are identical except for minor possible naturally occurring mutations. Monoclonal antibodies are highly specific, being directed against a single antigenic site. Moreover, in contrast to conventional (polyclonal) antibody preparations that typically include different antibodies directed against different determinants (epitopes), each monoclonal antibody is directed against a single determinant on the antigen. Monoclonal antibodies according to the present disclosure may be produced, for example, by the hybridoma method first described by Kohler et al. (1975) Nature 256:495, or may be produced by recombinant protein production methods (see, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,567).

[0580] The term "variable", when used in reference to antibodies, refers to the fact that the sequences of certain portions of antibody variable domains vary widely among antibodies and that these portions are used in the binding and specificity of each particular antibody to its particular antigen. However, variability is not evenly distributed throughout the variable domains of antibodies. It is concentrated in three segments called hypervariable regions in both the light and heavy chain variable domains. The more highly conserved portions of the variable domains are called framework regions (FRs). Natural heavy and light chain variable domains each contain four FRs connected by three hypervariable regions that largely adopt a β-sheet structure and form loop connections and sometimes form part of the β-sheet structure. The hypervariable regions of each chain are held together in close proximity by the FRs and, together with the hypervariable regions from the other chain, contribute to the formation of the antigen-binding site of antibodies (see Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD. (1991)). The constant domains are not involved directly in binding an antibody to an antigen, but exhibit various effector functions, such as participation of the antibody in antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC).

[0581] The term "hypervariable region" as used herein refers to the amino acid residues of an antibody that are responsible for antigen binding. Hypervariable regions generally include amino acid residues from the "complementarity determining regions" or "CDRs" (e.g., residues 31-35 (H1), 50-65 (H2), and 95-102 (H3) of the heavy chain variable domain; Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD. (1991)) and / or amino acid residues from the "hypervariable loops" (e.g., residues 26-32 (H1), 53-55 (H2), and 96-101 (H3) of the heavy chain variable domain; Chothia and Lesk J. Mol. Biol. 196:901-917 (1987)). In some embodiments, "CDR" refers to the complementarity determining regions of an antibody as defined in Lefranc, MP et al., IMGT, the international ImMunoGeneTics database, Nucleic Acids Res., 27:209-212 (1999). "Framework Region" or "FR" residues are those variable domain residues other than the hypervariable region / CDR residues as defined herein.

[0582] Exemplary CDR names are provided herein, however, one of skill in the art will appreciate that several definitions of CDRs are commonly used, including the Kabat definition (see Zhao et al. "A germline knowledge based computational approach for determining antibody complementarity determining regions." Mol Immunol. 2010;47:694-700), which is based on sequence variability and is the most commonly used. The Chothia definition is based on the location of structural loop regions (Chothia et al.

[0583] The terms "heavy chain-only antibody" and "heavy chain antibody" are used interchangeably herein and refer in the broadest sense to an antibody or one or more portions of an antibody, e.g., one or more arms of an antibody, that lack the light chain of a conventional antibody (i.e., a "heavy chain antibody" can consist of an isolated portion of an antibody that lacks a light chain or an antibody format other than a conventional antibody). The term specifically includes, but is not limited to, homodimeric antibodies comprising a VH antigen-binding domain and CH2 and CH3 constant domains in the absence of a CH1 domain; functional (antigen-binding) variants of such antibodies, soluble VH variants, Ig-NARs and functional fragments thereof comprising a homodimer of one variable domain (V-NAR) and five C-like constant domains (C-NAR); and soluble single-domain antibodies (e.g., UniDabs™). In one embodiment, the heavy chain antibody is composed of a variable region antigen-binding domain composed of framework 1, CDR1, framework 2, CDR2, framework 3, CDR3 and framework 4. In another embodiment, the heavy chain antibody is composed of an antigen-binding domain, at least a portion of a hinge region and a CH2 and CH3 domain. In another embodiment, the heavy chain antibody is composed of an antigen-binding domain, at least a portion of a hinge region and a CH2 domain. In a further embodiment, the heavy chain antibody is composed of an antigen-binding domain, at least a portion of a hinge region and a CH3 domain. Also included herein are heavy chain antibodies in which the CH2 and / or CH3 domains are truncated. In a further embodiment, the heavy chain is composed of an antigen-binding domain and at least one CH (CH1, CH2, CH3 or CH4) domain, but does not include the hinge region. The heavy chain antibody may be in the form of a dimer, in which the two heavy chains are disulfide-bonded to each other or otherwise covalently or non-covalently bound to each other. The heavy chain antibody may belong to the IgG subclass, although antibodies belonging to other subclasses, such as the IgM, IgA, IgD and IgE subclasses, are also included herein. In certain embodiments, the heavy chain antibody may belong to the IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 or IgG4 subtype, such as the IgG1 or IgG4 subtype.In one embodiment, the heavy chain antibody is an IgG1 or IgG4 subtype, and one or more of the CH domains are modified to change the effector function of the antibody. In one embodiment, the heavy chain antibody is an IgG4 subtype, and one or more of the CH domains are modified to change the effector function of the antibody. In one embodiment, the heavy chain antibody is an IgG1 subtype, and one or more of the CH domains are modified to change the effector function of the antibody. Modifications of the CH domains that change the effector function are further described herein. Non-limiting examples of heavy chain antibodies are described, for example, in WO 2018 / 039180, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

[0584] In some embodiments, the heavy chain antibodies described herein are used as binding (targeting) domains of chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). This definition specifically includes human heavy chain antibodies produced by human immunoglobulin transgenic rats (e.g., UniRat™), such as UniAb™. The variable regions (VH) of UniAb™, called UniDabs™, are versatile building blocks that can be linked to Fc regions or serum albumin for the development of novel therapeutics with multispecificity, increased potency and extended half-life. Since homodimeric UniAbs™ lack light chains and thus VL domains, the antigen is recognized by one single domain, namely the variable domain of the heavy chain of the heavy chain antibody (VH or VHH).

[0585] As used herein, an "intact antibody chain" is an antibody chain that comprises a full-length variable region and a full-length constant region (Fc). An intact "conventional" antibody comprises an intact light chain and an intact heavy chain, as well as a light chain constant domain (CL) and a heavy chain constant domain, CH1, hinge, CH2 and CH3, in secreted IgG. Other isotypes, such as IgM or IgA, may have different CH domains. The constant domains may be native sequence constant domains (e.g., human native sequence constant domains) or amino acid sequence variants thereof. An intact antibody may have one or more "effector functions," which refer to biological activities attributable to the Fc constant region (native sequence Fc region or amino acid sequence variant Fc region) of an antibody. Examples of antibody effector functions include C1q binding; complement dependent cytotoxicity; Fc receptor binding; antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC); phagocytosis; and down-regulation of cell surface receptors. Constant region variants include those that alter effector profile, binding to Fc receptors, etc.

[0586] Depending on the amino acid sequence of the Fc (constant domain) of the heavy chain, antibodies and various antigen-binding proteins can be assigned to different "classes". There are five major classes of heavy chain Fc regions: IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM, and some of these can be further divided into "subclasses" (isotypes), e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA, and IgA2. The Fc constant domains corresponding to the various classes of antibodies can be called α, δ, ε, γ, and μ, respectively. The subunit structures and three-dimensional configurations of the various classes of immunoglobulins are well known. Ig forms include hinge-modified or hingeless forms. Roux et al (1998) J. Immunol. 161:4083-4090; Lund et al (2000) Eur. J. Biochem. 267:7246-7256; US Patent Application Publication No. 2005 / 0048572; US Patent Application Publication No. 2004 / 0229310. The light chains of antibodies from any vertebrate species can be assigned to one of two types, called κ (kappa) and λ (lambda), based on the amino acid sequences of their constant domains. Antibodies according to embodiments of the present disclosure can comprise a kappa light chain sequence or a lambda light chain sequence.

[0587] A "functional Fc region" has the "effector functions" of a native sequence Fc region. Non-limiting examples of effector functions include C1q binding; CDC; Fc receptor binding; ADCC; ADCP; downregulation of cell surface receptors (e.g., B cell receptors), and the like. Such effector functions generally require the Fc region to interact with receptors, e.g., FcγRI; FcγRIIA; FcγRIIB1; FcγRIIB2; FcγRIIIA; FcγRIIIB receptors and low affinity FcRn receptors, and can be assessed using various assays known in the art. A "dead" or "silenced" Fc is one that has been mutated to retain activity, e.g., with respect to extending serum half-life, but does not activate high affinity Fc receptors or has reduced affinity for Fc receptors.

[0588] A "native sequence Fc region" comprises an amino acid sequence identical to that of an Fc region found in nature. Native sequence human Fc regions include, for example, native sequence human IgG1 Fc region (non-A and A allotypes), native sequence human IgG2 Fc region, native sequence human IgG3 Fc region, and native sequence human IgG4 Fc region, and naturally occurring variants thereof.

[0589] A "variant Fc region" comprises an amino acid sequence that differs from that of a native sequence Fc region by at least one amino acid modification, e.g., one or more (e.g., two or more, three or more, four or more) amino acid substitutions. Illustratively, in some embodiments, a variant Fc region has at least one amino acid substitution, e.g., about one to about ten amino acid substitutions, e.g., about one to about five amino acid substitutions in a native sequence Fc region or an Fc region of a parent polypeptide, compared to a native sequence Fc region or an Fc region of a parent polypeptide. In some embodiments, a variant Fc region herein has at least about 80% homology to a native sequence Fc region and / or an Fc region of a parent polypeptide, e.g., at least about 85% homology thereto, e.g., at least about 90% homology thereto, e.g., at least about 95% homology thereto, e.g., at least about 99% homology thereto.

[0590] As used herein, "heterodimerization changes" refers to changes in the A and B chains of an Fc region (i.e., the two chains that comprise an Fc region, where one chain is referred to herein as the "A" chain and the other as the "B" chain) that promote the formation of heterodimeric Fc regions, i.e., Fc regions where the A and B chains of the Fc region do not have identical amino acid sequences. In some embodiments, heterodimerization changes can be asymmetric, i.e., an A chain with a particular change can pair with a B chain with a different change. These changes promote heterodimerization and disfavor homodimerization. Whether hetero- or homodimers are formed can be assessed by size difference, for example, as determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the situation where one polyethylene chain is a dummy Fc and the other is a scFv-Fc. One non-limiting example of such paired heterodimerization changes is the so-called "knob and hole" substitution. See, e.g., U.S. Patent No. 7,695,936 and U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003 / 0078385. As used herein, an Fc region comprising a pair of knob and hole substitutions comprises one substitution in the A chain and another substitution in the B chain. For example, the following knob and hole substitutions in the A and B chains of an IgG1 Fc region have been found to increase heterodimer formation compared to that found in unmodified A and B chains and may be used in non-limiting embodiments of the present disclosure: 1) Y407T in one chain and T366Y in the other chain; 2) Y407A in one chain and T366W in the other chain; 3) F405A in one chain and T394W in the other chain; 4) F405W in one chain and T394S in the other chain; 5) Y407T in one chain and T366Y in the other chain; 6) T366Y and F405A in one chain and T394W and Y407T in the other chain; 7) T366W and F405W in one chain and T394S and Y407A in the other chain; 8) F405W and Y407A in one chain and T366W and T394S in the other chain; and 9) T366W in one polypeptide of Fc and T366S, L368A, and Y407V in the other polypeptide.Alternatively or in addition to such changes, substitutions that create new disulfide bridges can promote heterodimer formation.See, for example, US Patent Application Publication No. 2003 / 0078385.Such changes in the IgG1 Fc region include, but are not limited to, the following substitutions: Y349C in one Fc polypeptide chain and S354C in the other Fc polypeptide chain; Y349C in one Fc polypeptide chain and E356C in the other Fc polypeptide chain; Y349C in one Fc polypeptide chain and E357C in the other Fc polypeptide chain; L351C in one Fc polypeptide chain and S354C in the other Fc polypeptide chain; T394C in one Fc polypeptide chain and E397C in the other Fc polypeptide chain; or D399C in one Fc polypeptide chain and K392C in the other Fc polypeptide chain. Additionally or alternatively, substitutions that alter the charge of one or more residues in the CH3-CH3 interface can enhance heterodimer formation, for example, as described in WO 2009 / 089004, which is incorporated herein by reference. Such substitutions are referred to herein as "charge pair substitutions," and an Fc region that contains one pair of charge pair substitutions will contain one substitution in the A chain and a different substitution in the B chain. Non-limiting examples of charge pair substitutions include: 1) K409D or K409E in one chain + D399K or D399R in the other chain; 2) K392D or K392E in one chain + D399K or D399R in the other chain; 3) K439D or K439E in one chain + E356K or E356R in the other chain; and 4) K370D or K370E in one chain + E357K or E357R in the other chain. Additionally, substitutions R355D, R355E, K360D, or K360R in both chains can stabilize heterodimers when used with other heterodimerization changes. Certain charge pair substitutions can be used alone or with other charge pair substitutions.Specific examples of charge pair substitutions and combinations thereof include: 1) K409E in one chain + D399K in the other chain; 2) K409E in one chain + D399K in the other chain; 3) K409D in one chain + D399K in the other chain; 4) K409D in one chain + D399R in the other chain; 5) K392E in one chain + D399R in the other chain; 6) K392E in one chain + D399K in the other chain; 7) K392D in one chain + D399R in the other chain; 8) K392D in one chain + D399K in the other chain; 9) K409D and K360D in one chain + D399K and E356K in the other chain; 10) K409D in one chain + D399R in the other chain; 11) K409D and K392D on one chain plus D399K, E356K, and E357K on the other chain; 12) K409D and K392D on one chain and D399K on the other chain; 13) K409D and K392D on one chain plus D399K and E357K on the other chain. 6K; 14) K409D and K392D on one chain plus D399K and D357K on the other chain; 15) K409D and K370D on one chain plus D399K and D357K on the other chain; 16) D399K on one chain plus K409D and K360D on the other chain; and 17) K409D and K439D on one chain plus D399K and E356K on the other chain. Any of these heterodimerization changes can be used in a polypeptide comprising a variant Fc region described herein.

[0591] In some non-limiting embodiments, the variant Fc sequence may contain three amino acid substitutions in the CH2 region to reduce FcγRI binding at EU index positions 234, 235, and 237 (see Duncan et al., (1988) Nature 332:563). Two amino acid substitutions in the complement C1q binding site at EU index positions 330 and 331 reduce complement binding (see Tao et al., J. Exp. Med. 178:661 (1993) and Canfield and Morrison, J. Exp. Med. 173:1483 (1991)). Substitutions at positions 233-236 of human IgG1 or IgG2 residues and at positions 327, 330 and 331 of IgG4 residues significantly reduce ADCC and CDC (see, e.g., Armour KL.et al., 1999 Eur J Immunol.29(8):2613-24; and Shields RL et al., 2001.J Biol Chem.276(9):6591-604). The human IgG4 Fc amino acid sequence (UniProtKB number P01861) is provided herein as SEQ ID NO: 76. Silenced IgG1 is described, for example, in Boesch,AW,et al.,“Highly parallel characterization of IgG Fc binding interactions.”MAbs,2014.6(4):p.915-27, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

[0592] Other Fc variants are possible, including but not limited to those in which regions capable of forming disulfide bonds have been deleted, or specific amino acid residues have been removed at the N-terminus of the native Fc, or a methionine residue has been added. Thus, in some embodiments, one or more Fc portions of an antibody may contain one or more mutations in the hinge region to eliminate disulfide bonds. In yet another embodiment, the hinge region of the Fc may be completely removed. In yet another embodiment, an antibody may comprise an Fc variant.

[0593] Furthermore, Fc variants can be constructed to eliminate or substantially reduce effector functions by substituting (mutating), deleting or adding amino acid residues to effect complement binding or Fc receptor binding. For example, and without limitation, deletions can occur in complement binding sites, such as the C1q binding site. Techniques for preparing such sequence derivatives of immunoglobulin Fc fragments are disclosed in WO 97 / 34631 and WO 96 / 32478. Furthermore, the Fc domain can be modified by phosphorylation, sulfation, acylation, glycosylation, methylation, farnesylation, acetylation, amidation, and the like.

[0594] Antibodies with reduced effector function include, but are not limited to, those with one or more substitutions at Fc region residues 238, 265, 269, 270, 297, 327, and 329 according to EU numbering (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 6,737,056). In some embodiments, variant Fc regions with reduced effector function comprise substitutions at two or more of amino acid positions 265, 269, 270, 297, and 327 according to EU numbering, including the so-called "DANA" Fc variant with substitutions of residues 265 and 297 to alanine according to EU numbering (i.e., D265A and N297A according to EU numbering) (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 7,332,581). In some embodiments, variant Fc regions with reduced effector function comprise the following two amino acid substitutions: D265A and N297A.

[0595] In some embodiments, effector function is reduced by a mutation in the constant region that eliminates glycosylation, e.g., an "effectorless mutation." In some embodiments, the effectorless mutation is an N297A or DANA mutation (D265A+N297A) in the CH2 region. Shields et al., J. Biol. Chem. 276(9):6591-6604 (2001). In some embodiments, the effectorless mutation is an N297G or DANG mutation (D265A+N297G) in the CH2 region. In some embodiments, the variant Fc region lacks glycosylation at N297, e.g., the variant Fc region is a variant Fc region lacking glycosylation at N297, as described in WO 2014 / 153063, which is incorporated herein by reference. Further mutations that result in reduced or eliminated effector function include K322A and L234A / L235A (LALA). Alternatively, effector function can be reduced or eliminated through production techniques, such as expression in a host cell that does not glycosylate (e.g., E. coli) or in a host cell that results in an altered glycosylation pattern that is ineffective or less effective in promoting effector function (e.g., Shinkawa et al., J. Biol. Chem. 278(5):3466-3473 (2003)).

[0596] In some embodiments, the proline at position 329 (EU numbering) of the wild-type human Fc region (P329) is substituted with glycine or arginine or an amino acid residue large enough to disrupt the proline sandwich in the Fc / Fcγ receptor interface formed between P329 of Fc and tryptophan residues W87 and W110 of FcgRIII (Sondermann et al., Nature 406, 267-273 (20 Jul. 2000)). In some further embodiments, the at least one additional amino acid substitution in the Fc variant region is S228P, E233P, L234A, L235A, L235E, N297A, N297D, or P331S. In some embodiments, the at least one additional amino acid substitution is L234A and L235A in a human IgG1 Fc region or S228P and L235E in a human IgG4 Fc region, all according to EU numbering (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 8,969,526, incorporated by reference in its entirety).
