Description

[Technical field]

[0001] Technical Field The present application relates to the field of biopharmaceuticals, in particular to anti-GPRC5D antigen binding proteins, chimeric antigen receptors comprising said antigen binding proteins, and their use in the treatment of tumors. [Background technology]

[0002] Background technology Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common malignant hematological disease and the second leading cause of cancer mortality. MM is a malignant tumor of plasma cells, and is often accompanied by multiple osteolytic lesions, renal dysfunction, bone marrow infiltration, hypercalcemia, and anemia. Currently, the mainstream treatment for MM is systemic chemotherapy, which has serious side effects and is incurable.

[0003] The G protein-coupled receptor class C group 5 member D (GPRC5D) protein is an atypical surface orphan receptor. GPRCD5, like other C5 class receptors, has a short amino terminus and is conformationally very similar to the C4 class. GPRCD5 expression in normal tissues is restricted to hair follicles, but it is specifically and highly expressed in the bone marrow of MM patients and is highly associated with plasma cell tumor burden and genetic abnormalities.

[0004] Although novel drug interventions such as protease inhibitors (PIs), immunomodulatory agents (IMiDs), and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have enriched the treatment of MM, there are still high relapse rates and drug resistance. Chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy has shown significant efficacy and controllable toxicity in MM, but mainstream CAR-T cell therapy targeting B cell maturation antigen (BCMA) has a target escape problem for MM patients with BCMA-negative or low BCMA expression. GPRC5D is specifically and highly expressed in plasma cells, making it an ideal therapeutic target for MM, but drug therapeutic products targeting it are not yet mature. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0083] Specific embodiments In the following, embodiments of the present invention will be described using certain specific embodiments, but those familiar with this technology can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the disclosure in this application.

[0084] Term definition In the present application, the term "isolated antigen-binding protein" generally refers to a protein having antigen-binding ability that is removed from a naturally occurring state. The "isolated antigen-binding protein" includes a portion that binds an antigen and, optionally, allows the antigen-binding portion to adopt a conformation of the framework or framework portion that promotes its antigen binding. The antigen-binding protein may, for example, include a protein framework region (FR) derived from an antibody or an alternative protein framework region or an artificial framework region with grafted variable regions (CDRs) or CDR derivatives. For example, the antigen-binding protein may include an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof. For example, the antigen-binding protein may bind to a GPRC5D protein. For example, the antigen-binding protein may bind to a GPRC5D protein in competition with a reference antibody. For example, the antigen-binding protein may include an antibody heavy chain variable region VH. For example, the antigen-binding protein may include at least one CDR derived from an antibody heavy chain variable region VH. For example, the VH may include HCDR3, HCDR2 and / or HCDR1. For example, the VH may comprise a framework region H-FR1, and the C-terminus of the H-FR1 is directly or indirectly linked to the N-terminus of the HCDR1. For example, the VH may comprise a framework region H-FR2, and the H-FR2 is located between the HCDR1 and the HCDR2. For example, the VH may comprise a framework region H-FR3, and the H-FR3 is located between the HCDR2 and the HCDR3. For example, the VH may comprise a framework region H-FR4, and the N-terminus of the H-FR4 is linked to the C-terminus of the HCDR3. For example, the antigen binding protein may be a VHH. For example, the antigen binding protein may comprise an antibody heavy chain constant region, and the antibody heavy chain constant region may be derived from IgG. For example, the antibody heavy chain constant region may be derived from human IgG. For example, the antibody heavy chain constant region may be derived from human IgG1.

[0085] The term "antibody" as used includes complete antibodies and binding fragments thereof. Usually, fragments compete with the complete antibody from which they are derived for specific binding to an antigen. Optionally, the antibody or binding fragment thereof may be chemically conjugated to other proteins or expressed in the form of a fusion protein with other proteins. For example, the antibody may be a monoclonal antibody, a chimeric antibody, a humanized antibody, and a fully human antibody. For example, the binding protein of the antibody or binding fragment thereof may include GPRC5D. For example, the antibody or binding fragment thereof may have specificity for GPRC5D.

[0086] The term "antigen-binding fragment" refers to a portion of a complete antibody and to the antigen-determining variable region of the complete antibody. For example, the antigen-binding fragment may include Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, Fv fragments and single chain Fv fragments, tandem Fv fragments, VHH, and bispecific antibodies. For example, the antigen-binding fragment may be a VHH. For example, the antigen-binding fragment may bind to GPRC5D. For example, the antigen-binding fragment may have specificity for GPRC5D.

[0087] In this application, the term "VHH" generally refers to an antibody that comprises a variable antigen-binding domain of a heavy chain antibody. VHH may also be called a Nanobody (Nb) and / or a single domain antibody. For example, the VHH may bind to GPRC5D. For example, the VHH may have specificity for GPRC5D.

[0088] In the present application, the antibody may comprise at least two heavy (H) chains and two light (L) chains interconnected by disulfide bonds. Each heavy chain is composed of a heavy chain variable region (VH) and a heavy chain constant region. The term "heavy chain constant region" refers to three structural domains, CH1, CH2 and CH3. Each light chain is composed of a light chain variable region (VL) and a light chain constant region. The term "light chain constant region" refers to one structural domain, CL. The VH and VL regions can be further subdivided into hypervariable regions called complementarity determining regions (CDRs) and regions called framework regions (FRs) interspersed with more conserved regions. Each VH and VL is composed of three CDRs and four FRs arranged from the amino terminus to the carboxy terminus in the following order: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4. The variable regions of the heavy and light chains contain binding domains that interact with antigens. The constant regions of the antibodies mediate the binding of the immunoglobulin to host tissues and factors.

[0089] In this application, the term "reference antibody" refers to an antibody that competitively binds to the same epitope as the isolated antigen-binding protein GPRC5D. The reference antibody may include a heavy chain variable region VH. For example, the reference antibody may have three CDR sequences. For example, the VH of the reference antibody may include HCDR1, HCDR2 and HCDR3. For example, the CDR sequence may be identical to the CDR sequence of the isolated antigen-binding protein.

[0090] In the present application, the term "G protein-coupled receptor class C group 5 member D (GPRC5D) protein" refers to an atypical surface orphan receptor. GPRCD5, like other C5 class receptors, is conformationally very similar to the C4 class due to its short amino terminus. GPRCD5 expression in normal tissues is restricted to hair follicles, but is also significantly highly expressed in the bone marrow of multiple myeloma patients and is highly associated with plasma cell tumor burden and genetic abnormalities. For example, GPRC5D as described in the present application may refer to GPRC5D that is specifically expressed in MM patients.

[0091] As used herein, the term "IgG" refers to a polypeptide belonging to the antibody category essentially encoded by the recognized immunoglobulin gamma gene. In humans, this category includes IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4. In mice, this category includes IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b, and IgG3.

For example, the extracellular structural domain and the transmembrane region comprise a hinge region. For example, the chimeric antigen receptor may comprise a low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein or a fragment thereof. For example, the chimeric antigen receptor may comprise a signal peptide. When the extracellular structural domain of the CAR binds to a target antigen on the surface of a target cell, the CAR clusters and transmits an activation stimulus to the cell comprising the CAR. The CAR redirects the specificity of immune effector cells, activates proliferation, cytokine production, and mediates phagocytosis and / or generation of death molecules of cells expressing the target antigen in a major histocompatibility (MHC)-independent manner. For example, the extracellular structure may comprise the antigen-binding protein. For example, the extracellular structure may specifically bind to GPRC5D.

[0093] In the present application, the term "intracellular structural domain" refers to an intracellular structural domain including any cleavage portion sufficient to transmit an activation signal. The intracellular structural domain may include an intracellular signal region and / or a costimulatory signal region.

For example, the intracellular signal region may be derived from the signal transduction structural domain of CD3zeta. The term "costimulatory signal region" refers to a portion of the CAR that can transmit an effector signal in the intracellular signal region. For example, the co-stimulatory signal region can include an intracellular co-stimulatory signal region derived from one or more proteins selected from the group consisting of CD28, 4-1BB, CD27, CD2, CD7, CD8, OX40, CD226, DR3, SLAM, CDS, ICAM-1, NKG2D, NKG2C, B7-H3, 2B4, FcεRIγ, BTLA, GITR, HVEM, DAP10, DAP12, CD30, CD40, CD40L, TIM1, PD-1, LFA-1, LIGHT, JAML, CD244, CD100, ICOS, ligand for CD83, CD40, and MyD88. For example, the co-stimulatory signal region can be an intracellular co-stimulatory signal region derived from 4-1BB.

[0094] As used herein, the term "transmembrane domain" refers to a structural domain of a peptide, polypeptide or protein that is capable of spanning the cytoplasmic membrane and is capable of anchoring an extracellular structural domain to the cell membrane.

[0095] In this application, the term "hinge region" refers to a portion of an antibody heavy chain polypeptide that connects the CH1 and CH2 structural domains, e.g., from about position 216 to about position 230 according to the EU numbering system of Kabat. A hinge region is usually a dimeric molecule consisting of two polypeptides with the same amino acid sequence. The hinge region usually contains about 25 amino acid residues and is flexible, allowing independent movement of the antigen binding regions. The hinge region can be subdivided into three structural domains: the upper, middle, and lower hinge structural domains. For example, the hinge region may comprise a hinge region derived from one or more proteins selected from the group consisting of CD28, IgG1, IgG4, IgD, 4-1BB, CD4, CD27, CD7, CD8, PD-1, ICOS, OX40, NKG2D, NKG2C, FcεRIγ, BTLA, GITR, DAP10, CD40L, TIM1, CD226, SLAM, CD30, and LIGHT.

For example, the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein may be derived from a vertebrate. For example, the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein or a fragment thereof may be located at the C-terminus of the intracellular signal region. For example, the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein or a fragment thereof may include one or more selected from the group consisting of low-density lipoprotein receptor-related proteins 1-12 and functional fragments thereof. For example, the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein or a fragment thereof may be low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 or a fragment thereof.

[0097] In the present application, the term "signal peptide" refers to a leader sequence at the amino-terminus (N-terminus) of a nascent CAR protein that directs the nascent protein to the endoplasmic reticulum during or after translation, leading to subsequent surface expression.

[0172] Working Example Example 1. Screening of anti-GPRC5D antibodies using the artificial synthetic nano antibody library NanoOri_1.0 First, we compared the structure of 296 nanoantibodies without repeat sequences registered in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) database and determined three types of CDRs mutation strategies with CDR3 lengths of 14, 17, and 21 amino acids. Caplacizumab, a nanoantibody already on the market, was selected as the backbone, and the nucleotide sequence of Caplacizumab was fully genetically synthesized and cloned into the HP153 phage vector. After that, the single-stranded DNA of HP153 was extracted, and the CDRs of the nanoantibody were mutated using the Kunkel Mutagenesis method to obtain double-stranded DNA. The double-stranded DNA was electroporated into competent E. coli SS320 previously infected with M13KO7 helper phage, and the phage supernatant was collected after overnight culture, and finally, a diversity of 1.44 × 10 was obtained as a seed library. 10 We constructed a synthetic nanoantibody library, NanoOri_1.0 (Shanghai Yuaneng Origincell Technology Co., Ltd.), and performed antibody sequence screening.

[0173] The GPRC5D full-length sequence (cat:HG24447-UT) purchased from Sino Biological Company was constructed into the company's existing lentiviral vector, and lentiviral transduction was performed to prepare overexpressing cell lines of target cells CHO-GPRC5D and target cells 293-GPRC5D. The target cells CHO-GPRC5D and 293-GPRC5D were used to perform four rounds of alternating panning of the artificial synthetic nano-antibody library (Shanghai Yuaneng Origincell Technology Co., Ltd.).

[0174] One antibody was taken from the artificial synthetic nano antibody library NanoOri_1.0, and reprecipitated with PEG / NaCl. The target cells CHO-GPRC5D and 293-GPRC5D were used as an alternating screen for cell panning. 500 μL of phage and 500 μL of 10% FBS / PBS buffer were mixed to a final volume of 1 mL, placed in a 2 mL low-adsorption EP tube, confined at 4 °C for 1 h, and gently rotated or periodically shaken. CHO-GPRC5D cells were collected by centrifugation at 140 g for 10 min and washed once with 10 mL of PBS. After counting and the viable cell count reaching 95% or more, the CHO-GPRC5D cells were washed three times with 5% FBS / PBS buffer. Then, the cell count was adjusted to 1 × 10 7 The cells were resuspended in 1 mL of 5% FBS / PBS buffer until the phage antibody library was fully absorbed. During this time, the cells were kept on ice. The cells were centrifuged at 140 g for 2 min at 4°C, resuspended in 1 mL of the trapped phage antibody library, rotated gently or swirled periodically at 4°C or room temperature for 2 h, the supernatant was removed, and the collected cells were resuspended in 1 mL of 5% FBS / PBS buffer, washed twice, and placed in a new 2 mL low-adsorption EP tube after the final suspension to avoid elution of phages nonspecifically adsorbed to the EP tube.

[0175] The cells were resuspended in 1 mL of 100 nM Gly-HCl (pH 2.2), incubated at room temperature for 10 min, centrifuged at 140 g for 2 min at 4°C, and the supernatant was transferred to a new EP tube and 25 μL of 2 M Tris neutralizing solution was added. Approximately 1 mL of the neutralizing solution was further neutralized with approximately 500 μL of 7.5% FBS / PBS buffer.

[0176] Three adsorbed CHO cells were centrifuged in the same manner as CHO-GPRC5D cells. The eluted and neutralized phages were resuspended in CHO cells. They were then gently rotated or periodically shaken for 30 min at 4°C. They were then centrifuged at 140g for 2 min at 4°C, and the supernatant was used for the next adsorption step. This procedure was repeated three times. The final phage supernatant was used to infect TG1 cells.

[0177] A second round of cell panning was performed in the same manner, with the number of target cells CHO-GPRC5D increased to 5 × 10 6 The third and fourth rounds of cell panning were performed in the same manner, with the target cells changed to 293-GPRC5D and the cell number increased to 1 × 10 6 The number of washes was increased to 10.

[0178] After four rounds of panning, the output phages were found to be significantly enriched specifically for the target cells. A cell-based monophage ELISA was used to identify the phage antibody clones obtained by panning: CHO-GPRC5D target cells were cultured at 3 × 10 4 The plate was coated with cells / well and left at 4℃ overnight. Next, non-specific binding sites were blocked with 5% skim milk powder. After thorough washing, the monoclonal phage supernatant (pre-mixed with skim milk powder) was taken and placed in a 96-well plate and incubated for 2h. After thorough washing, Anti-M13-HRP was added and reacted for 45min. After thorough washing, TMB was added to develop color, and after acting at room temperature for 5-10min, the reaction was terminated with sulfuric acid, and the OD value of each well was measured at 450nm.

[0179] Thirty-four phage antibody clones (i.e., the isolated GPRC5D antibodies described in this application) that specifically bind to human GPRC5D were obtained by ELISA and were sequenced to identify single-chain V HThe H gene sequences were obtained, and the 10 phage antibody clones were named 3B5, 3E7, 4A2, 4B3, 3E9, 3F5, 3G4, 4A4, 4E12, 4F10, 505A1, 505A3, 505A11, 505B12, 505D2, 505F1, 505H3, 505H8, 505H10, 506A5, 506A8, 506B6, 506B12, 506C2, 506C5, 506C8, 506C11, 506D2, 506D8, 506E1, 506F5, 506G1, 506H2 and 506H9, respectively.

[0186] Example 5. Lentivirus packaging and viral titration As an example, the lentiviral vector system used to construct the present invention belongs to the third generation, and the system is composed of three plasmids: a packaging plasmid psPAX2 encoding Gag-Pol protein and Rev protein, a PMD2.G plasmid encoding the envelope protein VSV-G, and a core plasmid, that is, each CAR lentiviral plasmid containing a VHH sequence in the above Example 4 (i.e., 3B5VHH-CAR-ori2, 3E7-CAR-ori2, 4A2-CAR-ori2, 4B3-CAR-ori2, 3E9-CAR-ori2, 3F5-CAR-ori2, 3G4-CAR-ori2, 4A4-CAR-ori2, 4E12-CAR-ori2, and 4F10-CAR-ori2). The expression of the CAR gene in each CAR lentiviral plasmid is controlled by the elongation factor-1α (EF-1α) promoter.

[0187] 5.1 The lentivirus packaging process is as follows: (1) Add approximately 2.5 × 10 293T cells (usually cells within 20 generations) in 5 mL of 293T cell complete medium (high-glucose DMEM containing 10% FBS). 6 After mixing thoroughly, inoculate the cells into a 6 cm dish (ensure that the cell confluence is 80-90% after 20-24 hours) and incubate at 37℃, 5% CO 2 The cells were cultured overnight in an incubator. (2) After about 20-24 hours, 300 μL of Opti-MEM medium was taken, and a total of 6.3 μg of the three plasmids (added in a mass ratio of CAR lentivirus core plasmid:psPAX2:PMD2.G=4:3:2) was added, mixed well, and then 18.9 μL of FuGENEHD transfection reagent (Promega, E2311) was added, mixed carefully and thoroughly, and then allowed to stand at room temperature for 15-20 minutes. Next, the mixture was carefully added dropwise to a 6 cm dish, the dish was carefully shaken, and then incubated at 37°C, 5% CO 2 The cells were cultured overnight in an incubator. (3) Approximately 20-24 h after transfection, the supernatant from the 6 cm dish was carefully discarded, and 5 mL of complete 293T cell medium was slowly added. (4) Approximately 48 hours after transfection, the supernatant (containing dead cells and debris) from the 6 cm dish was collected and centrifuged at 3,000 g for 5 minutes. The supernatant virus solution after removing the cell debris was transferred to a new centrifuge tube, aliquoted, and stored at -80°C.

[0188] 5.2 Lentivirus titration was performed as follows. (1) The virus solution prepared above was quickly thawed. (2) 293T cells in good growth state (usually cells within 20 generations) were taken, the upper layer waste liquid was discarded, and the cells were washed with PBS, and then digested with 0.25% pancreatic enzyme (GIBICO) at 37°C for about 3 min. After the cells were completely digested, a specified volume of 293T cell complete medium was added to terminate the reaction. Samples were taken and counted, and the cell density was confirmed to be 2.0 × 10 5 The cells were then inoculated into 6-well plates at an inoculation volume of 2.5 mL / well, with polybrene added to a final concentration of 10 μg / mL. (3) Next, the virus solution was added to each of the 6-well plates. Typically, three sample gradients of 2 μL, 5 μL, and 10 μL were prepared for each virus solution, and 1-2 blank wells to which no virus solution was added were prepared as negative controls for flow cytometry measurements. (4) Cell culture plates are incubated at 37°C and 5% CO 2 The cells were cultured statically in an incubator at 37 °C. (5) After 48 hours of static culture, the upper layer of the waste liquid was discarded, the cells were washed with PBS, and then digested with 0.25% pancreatic enzyme (GIBICO) at 37°C for about 3 minutes. After the cells were completely digested, a specified volume of 293T cell complete medium was added to terminate the reaction. Samples were taken and counted, yielding about 5 × 10 5 Cells were placed into a 1.5 mL sterile centrifuge tube and marked. (6) The solution was adjusted to 1.2-1.5 mL using NBS solution (PBS solution containing 1% newborn calf serum), centrifuged at 4°C and 500 g for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was discarded. (7) 1 mL of NBS was added to each tube, the tubes were gently mixed by infusing, and the tubes were centrifuged at 4°C and 500 g for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was thoroughly discarded. (8) 50 μL of NBS and 0.8 μg of Biotin-Goat anti-human F(ab)2 antibody (109-066-006) were added to each tube, gently mixed with a pipette (no primary antibody was added to the negative control), and incubated at 4°C for 60 min. (9) After the incubation was completed, 1 mL of NBS was directly added to resuspend the cells, followed by centrifugation at 4°C and 500 g for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was discarded. (10) 50 μL of NBS and APC streptavidin (554067) fluorescent secondary antibody (no protein was added to the negative control) were added to each tube and incubated at 4° C. for 30 minutes. (11) Step (9) was repeated. (12) Each tube contained 200 μL of NBS-resuspended cells. (13) The percentage of fluorescent expression was detected using a BD FACS CantoII flow cytometer, and the data were processed.

[0189] Results are usable only if the positive-negative control positive rate for each test tube is between 5%-20%.

[0190] Lentiviral titer (IM / mL) = number of cells plated × (test tube positivity rate – control tube positivity rate) / volume of virus inoculated (mL).

[0191] As a result, the titer range of each CAR virus containing the above VHH was 1-10 × 10 6 IM / mL.

[0192] Example 6. T cell infection and expansion of BCMA CAR-T cells in vitro The method for preparing CAR-T cells containing the GPRC5D antibody sequence and the positive control sequence 109 scFv (Patent CN107428829A) is as follows: (1) Blood samples collected by the apheresis device were isolated using Ficoll density gradient centrifugation to obtain human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) (apheresis blood was provided by volunteers from the Ark Program of Shanghai Yuaneng Origincell Technology Co., Ltd.). (2) PBMCs were sorted by CD3 positive magnetic beads to obtain CD3+ T cells with purity >90%. For T cell sorting method, refer to the product instruction manual (MACS, DS130-050-101). (3) Resuspend the CD3+ T cells using T cell complete medium (X-VIVO 15 (Lonza) + 5% FBS + cytokines) and add 3x the cell volume of already washed CD3 / CD28 Dynabeads (Gibco, 40203D) and supplement with T cell complete medium to achieve a cell density of 1.0-1.2 × 10 6 Adjust the cell count to 100 cells / mL and incubate the cells at 37°C, 5% CO. 2 The cells were activated and cultured in an incubator (recording is at D0). (4) Lentiviral transduction is performed 20-24 h after T cell activation. (5) T cells activated for 20-24 h were collected and centrifuged at 500 g for 5 min. The cells were then resuspended in a given volume of complete T cell medium, sampled and counted, and the virus solutions whose titers were measured in Example 5 were added at a ratio such that the virus reinfection index (MOI) was 2-5. Polybrene was then added to a final concentration of 5 μg / mL, and the complete T cell medium was supplemented to adjust the cell density to 0.6-1.0 × 10 6 The cells were then incubated at 37°C, 5% CO 2 The cells were cultured in an incubator, and T cells not infected with the lentivirus were collected separately as a negative control group. (6) Approximately 20-24 h after viral transduction, T cells from each group were collected and centrifuged at 500 g for 5 min. The cells were then resuspended in a given volume of T cell complete medium. After sampling and counting, the cells were supplemented with T cell complete medium to obtain a cell density of 0.5-0.7 × 10 6 Adjusted to cells / mL. (7) After that, count the CAR-T cells as per 1-2, replenish the T cell complete medium according to the actual situation, and adjust the cell density to 0.5-1.0 × 10 6 Adjusted to cells / mL. (8) Typically, Dynabeads were removed on day 7 of culture, and the entire culture cycle took approximately 12 days.

[0193] The experimental results are shown in Figures 3A-3D. The total amplification fold of GPRC5D CAR-T cells activated and cultured for 12 days was 100-600 times, and the CAR positive rate after infection was 75%-95%, which could be used for cytological functional experiments.

[0194] Example 7. Evaluation of in vitro target killing activity of GPRC5D CAR-T cells To accurately detect the killing ability of CAR-T cells against target cells, the GPRC5D gene was introduced into CHO cells via lentivirus, and GPRC5D-positive cells, i.e., CHO-GPRC5D cells, were selected using a flow sorter. The target cells were CHO-GPRC5D cells, and the negative cells were CHO-negative cells. The effector cells cultured until day 9 were incubated with the target cells for 20 h at effector to target ratios of 1:3, 1:1, and 3:1, respectively, and the viability of the target cells (i.e., the killing ability of CAR-T cells) was determined by the LDH method.

[0195] The cell killing toxicity can be calculated using the following formula:

[0196] TIFF2024534847000004.tif15170

[0197] As shown in Figure 4A-C, when compared with blank effector T cells, anti-GPRC5D CAR-T cells and the 109 positive control showed significant killing effects against target cells in a gradient-dependent manner, whereas no killing effects against non-target cells were observed.

[0198] In another method to detect the killing effect, MM1S-lucifurase was used as target cells, and the killing effect was determined by detecting the luciferase level of the remaining target cells after co-incubation with effector CAR-T cells for 6 h. The detection results at an effector to target ratio of 1:1 are shown in Figure 4D, and the results show that the present CAR-T cells have a significant killing effect compared to T cells.

[0199] Example 8. Cytokine secretion of GPRC5D CAR-T cells after in vitro killing Referring to Example 7, a target cell killing experiment was carried out in a 96-well plate, the effector cell to target cell ratio was 1:1, and the number of effector cells in each 96-well was 2×10 4 Target and effector cells were added sequentially to each group, with two replicate wells for each effector-to-target ratio, and two separate effector cell wells for each group to detect background factor secretion by effector cells.

[0200] Approximately 24 h after target cell killing, the 96-well plate was centrifuged and the supernatant from each well was collected (supernatants should be stored in a -80°C refrigerator if not tested immediately).

[0201] Effector cells were centrifuged to remove the supernatant and then cultured at 3 × 10 5 The CAR-T cells were diluted to 100 μL / mL and 100 μL was set aside from each well. They were mixed with non-target cells (i.e., CAR-T cells that were not cultured with tumor cells) and MM1S cells in a round-bottom 96-well plate at an effector-to-target ratio of 1:1, and after 24 h of co-incubation, the supernatant was aspirated and the IL-2 and IFN-γ contents in the supernatant were detected by R&D Cytokine Kit.

[0202] As shown in Figure 5, without stimulation with MM1S cells, each CAR-T cell group secreted small amounts of IL-2 and IFN-γ, but when stimulated with MM1S cells, the present application produced more IFN-γ secretion during target cell killing compared to the positive control 109-ori2 selected in the present application.

[0203] Example 9. Targeted proliferation ability of GPRC5D CAR-T cells In this example, untreated MM1S cells were selected as target cells to detect the target proliferation ability of CAR-T cells.

[0204] This is usually performed after culturing CAR-T cells for about 9-12 days, but the CAR positivity rate of each group was detected in advance, and blank effector T cells were used to adjust the CAR positivity rate of each group so that it was consistent (X-VIVO 15 medium, which does not contain any additives, was selected as the medium).

[0205] CAR-T cells and MM1S cells were given the first target stimulation at an effector-to-target ratio of 1:1, co-incubated for 4-5 days, after which all cells were harvested, sampled, counted, and given the second target stimulation at a ratio of 1:3 (total CAR-T cells:new MM1S cells), co-incubated for another 4-5 days, and then given the third target stimulation (the ratio between the two cells was the same as the second target stimulation). During the third target stimulation, the appropriate amount of X-VIVO 15 medium was replenished every 1-2 days depending on the cell growth status.

[0206] As shown in Figure 6, after 2-3 rounds of target stimulation of GPRC5D CAR-T cells, the fold expansion of our CAR-T was comparable to the positive control, whereas the T cell co-incubated wells and MM1S target cell wells alone showed little expansion.

[0207] Example 10. GPRC5D CAR-T Mouse In Vivo Study We further verified the tumor-eliminating and tumor-suppressing effects of GPRC5D CAR-T cells in vivo using NSG mice. Specifically, we divided the mice into three groups: a T cell group, a positive control group, and a GPRC5D CAR-T cell group, and performed the test using five mice in each group. First, NSG mice were treated with 1 × 10 7 MM1S cells were subcutaneously inoculated at a dose of 150 cells / mouse, and approximately 2 weeks later (when tumor size was 50-150 mm 3CAR-T (or T) cells cultured for 10 to 12 days were injected into the tail vein of three groups, and the dose of CAR-T cells was 2 × 10 6 (The total number of inoculated cells for each mouse was standardized to T cells.) After inoculation of CAR-T (or T) cells, cytokine secretion was detected from the peripheral blood of the mice on the 7th and 14th days after inoculation of CAR-T (or T) cells, and the tumor size and body weight of the mice were measured three times a week and observed for three weeks.

[0208] Regarding cytokine secretion, as shown in Figures 7B and 7C, the GPRC5D CAR-T cell group produced more IFN-γ from within the mouse body and for a longer duration (IFN-γ detected on day 14 after CAR-T administration was significantly higher than that in the control group), but the secretion of other cytokines such as IL-2 was very low, and the difference between the groups was very small.

[0209] In terms of the tumor disappearance rate, as shown in Figure 7E, GPRC5D CAR-T cells were basically consistent with the positive control group, and showed a very significant tumor disappearance effect compared with the T cell group.

[0210] As shown in Figure 7D, after inoculation of CAR-T (or T) cells into NSG mice, the mouse weight was measured every 2 to 3 days, the mouse weight curve was plotted, and the mouse hair color, excrement, food intake, body movement, and mouse death status were observed and recorded. The mouse weights of the GPRC5D CAR-T cell and positive control groups showed a stable growth trend over time, which was consistent with the weight curve trend of the T group mice. During the test period, the mouse hair color of the GPRC5D CAR-T cell and positive control groups was bright, and the behavior, food intake, urine and feces colors were all normal, confirming that the GPRC5D CAR-T cells have good safety in the mouse body.

[0211] Example 11. Specificity test of GPRC5D antibody A non-specific binding test of the antibodies (i.e., the 3B5, 3E7, 4A2, 4B3, 3E9, 3F5, 3G4, 4A4 and 4E12 antibodies obtained in Example 2) to the cell surface target antigen (GPRC5D) was carried out by flow cytometry fluorescence sorting (FACS) using PBS containing 0.1% BSA as a buffer solution, using an iQue Screener flow cytometer (purchased from IntelliCyt). That is, target cells (i.e., cells that do not express the GPRC5D antigen, such as A549 cells, KERA cells, MCF-7 cells, and MSC cells) were diluted to 1x10 6 The concentration of each antibody was set to 1:1 cells / mL and added to a 96-well sharp bottom plate (corning 3894) at 30 μL / well. A detection antibody was prepared at a concentration of 20 μg / mL using buffer, and the antibody was diluted 3-fold to form eight concentration gradients. The prepared antibodies at different concentrations were added to the plated target cells at 30 μL / well, mixed well, and incubated in a refrigerator at 4 °C for 1 h. 150 μL of buffer was added to each well, centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min, the supernatant was discarded, the cells were shaken to loosen, and the washing was repeated once. A fluorescent secondary antibody (ab98593) was prepared at a ratio of 1:200 using buffer, added to the cells at 30 μL / well, mixed well, and incubated in a refrigerator at 4 °C for 30 min. 150 μL of buffer was added to each well, centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min, the supernatant was discarded, the cells were shaken to loosen, and the washing was repeated once. 35 μL of buffer solution was added to each well, mixed thoroughly, and then detected using a flow cytometer.

[0212] The results of affinity binding experiments by flow cytometry are shown in Figures 8A to 8D and Figures 9A to 9D, and indicate that the anti-GPRC5D antibodies 3B5, 3E7, 4A2, 4B3, 3E9, 3F5, 3G4, 4A4 and 4E12 do not bind nonspecifically to the above-mentioned cells, suggesting that the anti-GPRC5D antibodies have strong specificity.

[0213] Example 12. Endocytosis effect experiment of GPRC5D antibody The wild-type cell line MM.1S cells and NCIH929-GPRC5D cells overexpressing the GPRC5D target antigen were selected, and the specific operation procedures were as follows: 5x10 4 The target cells were coated on a 96-well V-bottom plate at 30 μL / well, for a total of two plates (plate A and plate B). The antibody dilution concentration started at 20 μg / mL, and diluted in a 3-fold ratio gradient, setting up a total of seven concentration gradients, and added to the 96-well V-bottom plate coated with the target cells at 30 μL / well, mixed well, incubated for 1 h, and washed once with PBS containing 0.1% BSA. Based on the antibody dilution concentration, the antibody was diluted 1:200 and added with 30 μL / well of Anti-Human IgG-Fc (Dylight650) secondary antibody, incubated at 4 °C for 30 min, washed once with PBS containing 0.1% BSA, and then added 50 μL of complete medium (RPMI1640 + 10% FBS). Plate A and plate B were incubated in an incubator at 4 °C and 37 °C for 2 h, respectively, and washed once with PBS containing 0.1% BSA. 30 μL of fluorescence quenching buffer was added to each well and left at 4°C for 10 min, after which PBS containing 0.1% BSA was added, the cells were washed once, and the cells were resuspended in 30 μL / well of PBS containing 0.1% BSA and detected using an intellicyt iQue3 flow cytometer.

[0214] The results are shown in Figures 10A-10D and demonstrate that the GPRC5D antibodies provided herein have varying degrees of endocytosis efficacy at 37°C.
