[Technical Field]

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 870,633, filed July 3, 2019, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 951,765, filed December 20, 2019, each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.

[0002] The present disclosure provides, among other things, techniques (eg, compounds, compositions, and methods thereof) useful for treating, for example, various conditions, disorders, or diseases. [Background technology]

[0003] The activity of the immune system can be utilized to prevent or treat a variety of conditions, disorders, and diseases. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides technologies (e.g., compounds, compositions, methods, etc.) that are particularly useful for recruiting antibodies to damaged or defective tissues (e.g., tumors, certain wounds, etc.), foreign bodies or entities (e.g., infectious agents), and the like, that comprise CD38 or a fragment thereof. In some embodiments, the provided technologies can induce, generate, promote, and / or enhance immune system activity, e.g., antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP), and the like, against target cells, tissues, objects, and / or entities that express CD38. In some embodiments, the present disclosure is directed to the design, preparation, and use of molecules that can selectively redirect endogenous antibodies to diseased cells (e.g., cancer cells that express CD38) and induce immune system activity (e.g., antibody-directed, cell-mediated immune responses (e.g., cytotoxicity, ADCP, etc.)).

[0005] In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides antibody recruiting molecules (ARMs), comprising an antibody-binding moiety, a target-binding moiety (e.g., one that binds CD38), and, optionally, a linker moiety. In some embodiments, the target-binding moiety confers specificity for the ARM for its target (e.g., disease cells of interest), e.g., through binding of an entity that distinguishes the target from a non-target (e.g., disease cells from another cell type). Among other things, the ARM enables target-specific recruitment of antibodies (e.g., endogenous antibodies, administered antibodies, etc.) via ABT and / or can induce, generate, promote, and / or enhance immune activity (e.g., immune-mediated killing of target cells). In some embodiments, the provided technology includes an ARM comprising a target-binding moiety that binds CD38, and can selectively recruit antibodies against targets (e.g., cancer cells) that express CD38 and / or can induce, generate, promote, and / or enhance immune activity (e.g., ADCC, ADCP, etc.) against such target cells. In some embodiments, the CD38-expressing target cells are cancer cells. In some embodiments, the agents provided herein (e.g., ARMs that bind to CD38) are particularly useful for preventing and / or treating CD38-associated conditions, disorders, or diseases (e.g., various types of CD38-associated cancers).

[0006] Among other things, the present disclosure encompasses the recognition that, without intending to be limited by any particular theory, certain immunotherapies targeting CD38-expressing targets, such as CD38 antibodies, suffer from one or more side effects (e.g., toxicity) due to the reduction and / or depletion of normal cells expressing CD38. For example, as described herein, in some embodiments, CD38 antibodies (e.g., daratumumab) induced a reduction or depletion of CD38-expressing immune effector cells. Among other things, the present disclosure demonstrates that the provided technology can recruit immune components and immune activity to CD38-expressing targets (e.g., cancer cells) with less or no significant reduction or depletion of CD38-expressing immune effector cells compared to CD38 antibodies such as daratumumab.

[0007] In some embodiments, provided compounds (e.g., ARMs) comprise an antibody-binding moiety (universal antibody binding terminus, uABT) that can bind to antibodies of various specificities. Among other things, such ARMs can avoid specific antibody population dependency and / or undesirable effects associated with individual variations in specific antibody populations. In some embodiments, uABTs can bind to the Fc region of antibodies, thereby, among other things, recruiting antibodies of various antigen specificities. In some embodiments, ABTs, e.g., uABTs, can bind to the Fc region of IgG. C In some embodiments, the uABT binds to a conserved site present in the ARM region. In some embodiments, the uABT allows for the recruitment of all IgG subclasses (IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4). In some embodiments, the uABT preferentially allows for the recruitment of IgG1, IgG2, and / or IgG4. In some embodiments, the uABT binds to IgG molecules but not human IgA or IgM. In some embodiments, the recruitment of antibodies, e.g., IgG subclasses, is dependent on the administered dose of the ARM and / or is independent of the level of antibodies with a particular Fab region in an individual. In some embodiments, useful ABTs are those described in WO2019 / 023501, and various ABTs, including antibody-binding moieties thereof, e.g., uABT, are incorporated herein by reference. One of skill in the art will appreciate that a variety of antibody-binding moieties are available and can be utilized in accordance with the present disclosure.

[0008] In particular, an ARM can recruit antibodies, and the recruited antibodies provide one or more immune activities, for example, via one or more antibody-mediated immune mechanisms. In some embodiments, the recruited antibodies recruit immune cells and / or interact with and / or activate Fc receptors on immune cells. In some embodiments, the recruited antibodies recruit and activate immune cells to inhibit and / or target diseased cells, such as cancer cells. In some embodiments, a provided agent (e.g., an ARM) induces antibody-dependent effector function. In some embodiments, a provided agent (e.g., an ARM) induces complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC). In some embodiments, a provided agent (e.g., an ARM) directly induces cytotoxicity. In some embodiments, a provided agent (e.g., an ARM) inhibits biological functions associated with steric hindrance. In some embodiments, a provided agent (e.g., an ARM) induces antibody-dependent cell-mediated viral inhibition (ADCVI). In some embodiments, a provided agent (e.g., an ARM) induces ADCC and kills cancer cells. In some embodiments, provided agents (e.g., ARMs) induce ADCC and kill cancer cells, hi some embodiments, provided agents (e.g., ARMs) induce both ADCC and ADCP.

[0010] In some embodiments, the target binding moiety is capable of binding to CD38. In some embodiments, the antibody binding moiety is capable of binding to two or more antibodies with different Fab regions. In some embodiments, the antibody binding moiety is capable of binding to two or more antibodies with different antigen specificities.
