AI Technical Summary
Current HIV treatment strategies require daily adherence to antiretroviral therapy, leading to treatment fatigue and nonadherence, and existing broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) have limited breadth and can develop resistance, necessitating less frequent and more effective treatment options.
Co-administration of two modified broadly neutralizing antibodies, GS-5423 (telopavimab) and GS-2872 (ginriluvimab), which bind to specific HIV gp120 epitopes with serum half-life extensions, administered every 6-26 weeks, combined with long-acting antiretroviral drugs like lenacapavir, to maintain therapeutic efficacy.
This approach provides a long-acting, less frequent treatment regimen that maintains viral suppression and reduces the risk of resistance, offering a safer and more adherent HIV management strategy.

[0003] Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection causes severe, life-threatening disease and remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Approximately 1 million people in the United States (US) are infected with HIV (people with HIV, PWH), and more than 38 million people worldwide (UNAIDS. Fact Sheet - Global HIV Statistics 2021). Advances in antiretroviral (ARV) therapy (ART) for HIV have led to significant improvements in morbidity and mortality by suppressing viral replication, preserving immunological function, and avoiding disease progression to AIDS. However, current treatment strategies have failed to eliminate the virus and cure HIV-1 infection.
[0004] While current combination ARTs for the treatment of HIV-1 infection are effective and well tolerated, these medications must be taken daily and require near-perfect adherence to minimize the emergence of drug-resistant variants. As a result, among patients prescribed chronic or lifelong treatment, "treatment fatigue," defined as "a decreased desire and motivation to maintain vigilance in adhering to a treatment regimen," can occur (Claborn, et al., Psychol Health Med (2015) 20(3):255-65), which can lead to nonadherence and treatment failure. Therefore, there remains a significant medical need for ARVs that can be administered less frequently (i.e., long-acting drug products), thereby providing alternative treatment options for individuals infected with HIV-1.
[0005] Lenacapavir is a novel, first-in-class, multi-stage selective inhibitor of HIV-1 capsid function targeted for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. Lenacapavir has potent antiviral activity and does not share overlapping resistance with any licensed product. Lenacapavir has low human clearance and is being developed as a long-acting antiretroviral drug (ARV) for the treatment and prevention of HIV-1. Lenacapavir has the potential to fulfill a high unmet medical need in PWH who could benefit from long-acting treatment or a novel mechanism of action. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) with neutralizing activity against HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins have been identified (Burton and Mascola, Nat Immunol (2015) 16(6):571-6), and parenteral administration of broadly neutralizing mAbs resulted in significant reductions in plasma viremia in treatment-naive PWH, and virologic suppression was maintained in virologically suppressed PWH who received broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) before undergoing analytical treatment interruption (Caskey, et al., Nature (2015) 522(7557):487-91; Caskey, et al., Nat Med (2017) 23(2):185-91; Mendoza, et al., Nature (2018) 561:479-84). Antibodies can act for a long time, potentially mitigating the challenges of daily therapy or lifelong adherence. Antibodies can also engage the immune system, potentially contributing to beneficial HIV-specific immune responses (Niessl et al., Nat Med (2020) 26(2):222-7), including the potential clearance of latently infected cells (Gaebler, et al., Nature (2022) 606(7913):368-374), which cannot be achieved with ARV drugs. As biologics, bNAbs can rescue patients from the adverse effects associated with chronic ARV therapy. However, HIV-1 is a diverse virus, and its variants have varying levels of sensitivity to any given bNAb. Therefore, bNAbs identified to date have incomplete breadth when measured by their ability to neutralize a variety of HIV-1 isolates (Nishimura, et al., Nature (2017) 543(7646):559-63). 3BNC117 and 10-1074 are two of the most potent bNAbs identified and clinically tested (Mouquet, et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA (2012) 109(47):E3268-77; Scheid, et al., Science (2011) 333(6049):1633-7).However, viral resistance to bNAbs can occur after antibody titers fade (Bar-On, et al., Nat Med (2018) 24:1701-7).

[0022] 1. Introduction Thus, the present method is based in part on the discovery that co-administration of a first anti-HIV broadly neutralizing antibody (bNAb) that binds to an epitope of gp120 within the third variable loop (V3) and / or the high-mannose patch, including the N332 oligomannose glycan, with a second bNAb that binds to an epitope of gp120 comprising the CD4 binding site (CD4bs) with an Fc amino acid substitution that extends serum half-life, can be administered twice a year (e.g., Q6M, Q24W, Q25W, Q26W) and achieve therapeutic efficacy. To date, bNAbs, even those with serum half-life-extending Fc amino acid substitutions, have been administered every three months or more frequently.
[0023] Generally, the method involves co-administering, at a first time point, (i) an effective amount of a first antibody that competes with or comprises a VH and VL region that binds to an epitope of gp120 within the third variable loop (V3) and / or the high mannose patch comprising the N332 oligomannose glycan, and (ii) an effective amount of a second antibody that competes with or comprises a VH and VL region that binds to an epitope of gp120 comprising the CD4 binding site (CD4bs), where both the first and second antibodies comprise Fc amino acid substitutions to extend serum half-life; and then co-administering an effective amount of the first antibody and an effective amount of the second antibody at a second time point at least about 24 weeks, e.g., at least about 25 weeks, e.g., at least about 26 weeks, from the first time point.
[0024] 3BNC117 and 10-1074 have been modified to increase their half-life, resulting in GS 5423 (telopavimab, 3BNC117-LS) and GS-2872 (ginlilvimab, 10-1074-LS), which allow for the maintenance of high bNAb concentrations over extended periods. Combination therapy consisting of long-acting bNAbs and antiretroviral drugs may overcome the limitations of bNAbs alone and enable a safe, long-acting treatment option for PWH. The modified LS version contains two amino acid substitutions in the Fc: a methionine-to-leucine substitution at Fc position 428 (M428L) and an asparagine-to-serine substitution at Fc position 434 (N434S) (EU numbering). These substitutions enhance antibody binding affinity to the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) and extend the half-life of the bNAbs in vivo. Affinity binding to other Fc receptors remains unchanged. These modifications do not alter the fragment antigen-binding domain (Fab) of the bNAbs and therefore do not alter their interaction with antigen or safety profile.
[0025] 2. Co-administered broadly neutralizing antibodies a.General broadly neutralizing antibodies HIV-1 is the predominant family of HIV and accounts for 95% of all infections worldwide, while HIV-2 is found primarily in some West African countries.
[0026] HIV viruses are classified into specific groups, M, N, O, and P, of which M is the "major" group and is responsible for the majority of HIV / AIDS cases worldwide. Based on their genetic sequences, M groups are further subdivided into subtypes (also called clades) according to their prevalence in different geographic locations.
[0027] Group M "subtypes" or "clades" are subtypes of HIV-1 group M defined by genetic sequence data. Examples of group M subtypes include subtypes A through K. Some subtypes are known to be more virulent or resistant to different drugs. There are also "circulating recombinants" or CRFs resulting from recombinations between viruses of different subtypes, each of which is given a number. CRF12_BF, for example, is a recombination between subtypes B and F. Subtype A is common in West Africa. Subtype B is the predominant form in Europe, America, Japan, Thailand, and Australia. Subtype C is the predominant form in South Africa, East Africa, India, Nepal, and parts of China. Subtype D is generally found only in East and Central Africa. Subtype E has never been identified as a non-recombinant and has only recombined with subtype A as CRF01_AE. Subtype F has been found in Central Africa, South America, and Eastern Europe. Subtype G (and CRF02_AG) has been found in Africa and Central Europe. Subtype H is restricted to Central Africa. Subtype I was originally used to describe the strain now described as CRF04_cpx, where cpx represents a "complex" recombination of several subtypes. Subtype J is found primarily in North, Central, and West Africa, and Caribbean subtype K is restricted to the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon. These subtypes may be further divided into subsubtypes such as A1 and A2, or F1 and F2. In 2015, the CRF19 strain, a recombinant of subtypes A, D, and G with a subtype D protease, was found to be strongly associated with rapid progression to AIDS in Cuba.
[0028] The present disclosure provides methods involving the administration of human anti-HIV neutralizing antibodies (e.g., broadly neutralizing Abs) that target the gp120 polypeptide on the surface of HIV-infected cells, among other things. Neutralizing antibodies against viral envelope proteins provide adaptive immune defense against HIV-1 exposure by blocking infection of susceptible cells. Broad neutralization indicates that the antibody can neutralize HIV-1 isolates from different clades. Thus, the anti-HIV gp120-binding antibodies described herein have cross-clade binding activity.
[0029] In certain embodiments, the administered antibody is or is derived from a human neutralizing antibody (e.g., monoclonal) that targets HIV-1. A "neutralizing antibody" is one that can neutralize the ability of HIV to initiate and / or sustain infection in host and / or target cells in vitro. The present disclosure provides neutralizing monoclonal human antibodies, which recognize an antigen from HIV, e.g., the gp120 polypeptide. In certain embodiments, a "neutralizing antibody" can inhibit entry of HIV-1 virus, e.g., SF162 and / or JR-CSF, with a neutralization index greater than 1.5 or greater than 2.0 (Kostrikis L, Get et al., J. Virol., 70(1):445-458 (1996)).
[0030] In some embodiments, the administered antibody is or is derived from a human broadly neutralizing antibody (e.g., monoclonal) that targets HIV-1. A "broadly neutralizing antibody" refers to an antibody that neutralizes two or more HIV-1 virus species (from diverse clades and different strains within a clade) in a neutralization assay. A broadly neutralizing antibody may neutralize at least 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or more different strains of HIV-1, where the strains belong to the same or different clades. In certain embodiments, a broadly neutralizing antibody can neutralize multiple HIV-1 species belonging to at least 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 different clades. In certain embodiments, the inhibitory concentration of an anti-HIV gp120 V3-glycan-binding antibody or antigen-binding fragment can be less than about 0.0001 μg / ml, less than about 0.001 μg / ml, less than about 0.01 μg / ml, less than about 0.1 μg / ml, less than about 0.5 μg / ml, less than about 1.0 μg / ml, less than about 5 μg / ml, less than about 10 μg / ml, less than about 25 μg / ml, less than about 50 μg / ml, or less than about 100 μg / ml to neutralize about 50% of input virus in a neutralization assay.
[0031] gp120 The envelope glycoprotein gp120 (or gp120) is a 120 kDa glycoprotein that is part of the outer layer of HIV. It presents itself as a viral membrane spike consisting of three molecules of gp120 bound together and anchored to the membrane by the gp41 protein. Gp120 is essential for viral infection because it facilitates HIV entry into host cells through interactions with cell surface receptors. These receptors include DC-SIGN, heparan sulfate proteoglycans, and the CD4 receptor. Binding to CD4 on helper T cells induces the initiation of a cascade of conformational changes in gp120 and gp41, which leads to fusion of the virus with the host cell membrane.
[0032] Gp120 is encoded by the HIV env gene, which encodes a gene product of approximately 850 amino acids. The primary env product is the protein gp160, which is cleaved in the endoplasmic reticulum by the cellular protease furin into gp120 (approximately 480 amino acids) and gp41 (approximately 345 amino acids).
[0033] Broadly neutralizing antibodies are described, for example, in Walsh and Seaman, Front Immunol. (2021) 12:712122; Julg and Barouch, Semin Immunol. (2021) 51:101475; Hsu, et al., Front Immunol.

[0034] b.Antibodies directed against the V3 glycan region of HIV gp120 The V3 glycan site on gp120 is formed partly by a portion of the CCR5 coreceptor site and partly by surrounding camouflaging glycans (the so-called "high-mannose patch") (Sok, et al., Immunity (2016) 45, 31-45). Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) against the V3 glycan site are the most common of all Abs found in HIV infection (Walker, et al., PLoS Pathog. (2010) 6: e1001028 (2010); Landais, et al., PLoS Pathog. (2016) 12: e1005369; Georgiev, et al. Science (2013) 340: 751-756).

[0040] Genomic diversity among independent human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) isolates, and to a lesser extent between successive isolates from the same patient, and even within a single patient isolate, is a well-known feature of HIV-1. This sequence heterogeneity is distributed throughout the genome, but the majority of the heterogeneity is located in the env gene. Comparison of deduced amino acid sequences from several different isolates showed that sequence heterogeneity is clustered in five variable regions (designated V1 to V5) of the surface glycoprotein gp120. The V3 region, although only 35 amino acids long, exhibits considerable sequence variability. Interestingly, despite this variability, the V3 region is the only region that encodes the CD4 +These include determinants that mediate interactions with cells. Increased gp120 variability leads to higher levels of viral replication, suggesting increased viral fitness in individuals infected with diverse HIV-1 variants. Variability in potential N-linked glycosylation sites (PNGS) also leads to increased viral fitness. PNGS allow the attachment of long-chain carbohydrates to the highly variable region of gp120. Thus, the number of PNGS in env may affect viral fitness by rendering it more or less susceptible to neutralizing antibodies.

[0050] c.Antibodies directed against the CD4bs region of HIV gp120 The CD4-binding site (CD4bs) of gp120 contains structurally conserved regions located within β1-α1, loop D, β20-β21 (bridging sheet), and β24-α5, which determine CD4 binding and contribute to the epitope of CD4bs-binding antibodies (Qiao, et al., Antiviral Res. 2016 Aug;132:252-61). The CD4bs of gp120 forms a conformational epitope recognized by anti-CD4bs antibodies involving one or more amino acid residues selected from Thr278, Asp279, Ala281, Thr283, Asp368, Trp427, Glu460, Ser461, Glu462, Leu452, Leu453, and Arg476. Amino acid residue and position numbering is based on the HXB2 subtype B HIV-1 isolate, which corresponds to residues 1-511 of the NCBI reference sequence NP_057856.1 provided below. Residues that may contribute to the gp120 CD4bs are shown in bold and underlined: Thr278, Asp279, Asn280, Ala281, Thr283, Asp368, Trp427, Leu452, Leu453, Gly459, Glu464, Ser465, Glu466, Ile467, Gly472, Gly473, and Arg476.

[0067] 3. Scheduling Regimen Generally, the method involves treating or preventing HIV in a human subject in need thereof by co-administering twice a year an effective amount of a bNAb that binds to an epitope of gp120 within the third variable loop (V3) and / or a high mannose patch comprising the N332 oligomannose glycan, and an effective amount of a bNAb that binds to an epitope of gp120 comprising the CD4 binding site (CD4bs), where both bNAbs have Fc amino acid substitutions to extend serum half-life. In various embodiments, the frequency of co-administration can be once every 6 months (i.e., Q6M), once every 24 weeks (i.e., Q24W), once every 25 weeks (i.e., Q25W), or once every 26 weeks (i.e., Q26W).
[0068] A "subject," "individual," or "patient" refers to any mammal, including humans and non-human primates. In some embodiments, the mammal is a human.
[0069] An "effective amount" or "therapeutically effective amount" refers to the amount of an antibody sufficient to effect treatment or a beneficial result in a subject when administered to a cell, tissue, or subject, alone or in combination with another therapeutic agent. What constitutes an "effective amount" varies depending on the antibody and its specific use, as well as the condition and its severity, mode of administration, and age of the subject potentially being treated, but can be routinely determined by one of ordinary skill in the art in light of their own knowledge and this disclosure. A therapeutically effective dose also refers to an amount of antibody sufficient to treat, prevent, or ameliorate an infectious or disease state, or the progression of an infectious or disease state, and an amount sufficient to increase the rate of treatment, cure, prevention, or amelioration of such a condition. When applied to an individual antibody administered alone, a therapeutically effective dose refers to that active ingredient alone. When applied to a combination, a therapeutically effective dose refers to the combined amounts of the active ingredients that result in a therapeutic effect, whether administered in combination, sequentially, or simultaneously. In some embodiments, a therapeutically effective dose allows for effective blood or serum concentrations of antibody upon a second or subsequent administration (e.g., 6 months, 24 weeks, 25 weeks, or 26 weeks after a first or previous administration).

For example, an anti-HIV gp120 V3 glycan-binding antibody and an anti-HIV gp120 CD4bs-binding antibody described herein can be administered simultaneously or within seconds, minutes, hours, or days of each other. In some embodiments, unit doses of an anti-HIV gp120 V3 glycan-binding antibody and an anti-HIV gp120 CD4bs-binding antibody disclosed herein are administered within a few hours of each other (e.g., within 1-12 hours, within 1-24 hours, within 1-36 hours, within 1-48 hours, within 1-60 hours, or within 1-72 hours).
[0074] In certain embodiments, the anti-HIV gp120 V3 glycan-binding antibodies and anti-HIV gp120 CD4bs-binding antibodies described herein are combined in a unit dosage form for simultaneous administration to a patient, either separately or as an admixture, e.g., as a liquid or suspension dosage form for intravenous, intramuscular, or subcutaneous administration.
[0075] In certain embodiments, the anti-HIV gp120 V3 glycan-binding agent and the anti-HIV gp120 CD4bs-binding agent are formulated separately or in admixture as a liquid solution or suspension that may optionally contain one or more other agents useful for treating HIV (e.g., an HIV capsid inhibitor, e.g., lenacapavir).

[0078] In some embodiments, after one or more co-administrations of 10-1074-LS and 3BNC117-LS, the serum concentration of HIV RNA is less than 50 copies / mL 26 weeks after the first time point or 26 weeks after the most recent co-administration.
[0079] 4. Patient Selection Stages of infection In various embodiments, the human subject is an adult, adolescent, or infant. The subject may be symptomatic (e.g., viraemic) or asymptomatic (e.g., acutely infected or ART suppressed). In some embodiments, the human subject is acutely or recently infected with HIV. In certain embodiments, the subject has not seroconverted. In some embodiments, the human subject is chronically infected with HIV. The subject may or may not be receiving an antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimen.
[0080] Patients can be classified into Fiebig stages I through VI based on the sequential acquisition of positive HIV-1 clinical diagnostic assays (viral RNA measured by PCR, p24 and p31 viral antigens measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)). p24 antigen is a viral core protein that appears transiently in the blood during the rising phase after HIV-1 RNA levels rise above 10,000 copies / mL and before the development of detectable HIV antibodies. In Fiebig stage I, only HIV-1 RNA can be detected in the blood during rising viremia. Fiebig stage II begins approximately 7 days after a positive test result detecting p24 antigen. In Fiebig stage III, IgM anti-HIV-1 antibodies can be detected using a sufficiently sensitive enzyme immunoassay (EIA) (e.g., a third-generation EIA) within approximately 5 days after a positive p24 antigen test result. Stage III typically occurs 1 to 2 weeks after the onset of acute retroviral symptoms. Fiebig stage IV occurs approximately three days after the Western blot test indicates indeterminate progression and the EIA test shows a positive result. Conversion to a clearly positive Western blot test, Fiebig stage V, generally occurs an additional seven days or about one month after initial infection. Fiebig stages of HIV infection are described, for example, in Fiebig, et al., AIDS. (2003) 17(13):1871-9; Cohen, et al., J Infect Dis. (2010) 202 Suppl 2:S270-7; and McMichael, et al., Nature Reviews Immunology (2010) 10:11-23, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties for all purposes. In some embodiments, the biological sample being evaluated is from a human subject with HIV infection at or before Fiebig stage IV, e.g., Fiebig stage I, Fiebig stage II, Fiebig stage III, or Fiebig stage IV. In some embodiments, the biological sample being evaluated is from a human subject with HIV infection at Fiebig stage V or Fiebig stage VI HIV infection.
[0081] Susceptibility of HIV in subjects to one or both bNAbs In some embodiments, the method further comprises obtaining a biological sample (e.g., blood, serum, plasma, semen, lymph node) from the subject. In some embodiments, the method involves receiving a report of HIV gp120 amino acid residues present at designated positions of interest, e.g., one or more amino acid positions from the group consisting of 332 and 325, and 63, 179, 320, and 330, wherein the amino acid positions are referenced to SEQ ID NO:4.
[0082] In various embodiments, the method further includes identifying patients most likely to benefit from therapy with one or both of an antibody targeting the V3 glycan region of HIV gp120 and an antibody targeting the CD4bs of HIV gp120. In some embodiments, the sensitivity of a subject to one or both of an antibody targeting the V3 glycan region of HIV gp120 and an antibody targeting the CD4bs of HIV gp120 is determined as an IC90 of the bNAb of 2 μg / mL or less in the PhenoSense mAb Assay (Monogram).

In some embodiments, the subject is infected with an HIV Clade (also known as HIV subtype) A, Clade B, and / or HIV Clade (also known as HIV subtype) C virus.
[0103] Determining the gp120 amino acid of interest Determining the amino acid residues in a subject's HIV gp120 sequence at a specified position of interest, e.g., one or more amino acid positions from the group consisting of 332 and 325, and 63, 179, 320, and 330 (amino acid positions refer to SEQ ID NO: 3), can be performed at the polynucleotide or polypeptide level. At the polynucleotide level, HIV RNA or proviral DNA isolated from one or more biological samples can be sequenced using methods known in the art. In some embodiments, HIV RNA or proviral DNA isolated from two or more biological samples from a subject is sequenced. In some embodiments, the two or more biological samples are obtained from different tissue sources, e.g., blood, peripheral blood mononuclear cells, lymph nodes, and / or semen. In some embodiments, the two or more biological samples are obtained at different time points, e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 weeks apart, or 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12 months apart.

In various embodiments, RNA can be sequenced directly or reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) can be performed. In some embodiments, Sanger sequencing can be performed, for example, when sequencing to determine amino acid residues in the CD4bs region or when sequencing samples from patients at an early Fiebig stage of disease, e.g., before Fiebig stage III, e.g., Fiebig stage I or II. In various embodiments, single genome amplification (SGA) and sequencing is performed. Methods for single genome amplification (SGA) and sequencing of plasma HIV virion RNA are described, for example, in Salazar-Gonzalez, et al. (2008) J Virol 82:3952-3970, and Keele, et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. (2008) 105(21):7552-7. The application of SGA to determine amino acid sequence variations in HIV gp120 sequences, which can be used in the methods described herein, is described, for example, in Bar, et al., N Engl J Med. (2016) 375(21):2037-2050, and Mendoza, et al., Nature. (2018) 561(7724):479-484. In various embodiments, high-throughput, next-generation sequencing (NGS), massively parallel, or deep sequencing technologies are used to sequence gp120, including at least the CD4bs region, from a population of HIV strains in one or more biological samples from a single patient or subject. In such cases, multiple nucleic acid sequences encoding at least the CD4bs region of gp120 are sequenced and aligned. In some embodiments, the entire length of gp120 is sequenced.Exemplary platforms for performing NGS sequencing that can be used to determine the gp120 sequence of HIV strains in one or more biological samples from a patient include Illumina (Solexa) (illumina.com), Ion torrent: Proton / PGM sequencing (thermofisher.com), SOLiD (thermofisher.com), and single molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing (Pacific Biosciences, pacb.com). Methods for isolating and sequencing HIV gp120, including at least the CD4bs region, from a patient, which can be applied in the present method, are described, for example, in Shioda, et al., J Virol. (1997) 71(7):4871-81; Colon, et al., J Virol Antivir Res. (2015) 4(3). pii:143 (PMID: 27358904); Kafando et al., PLoS One. (2017) 12(12):e0189999; Hebberecht et al., PLoS One. (2018) 13(4):e0195679; Andrews, et al., Sci Rep. (2018) 8(1):5743; and Landais, et al. Immunity. (2017) 47(5):990-1003. If necessary, shorter sequence reads ("contigs") of the nucleic acid sequence can be assembled into longer sequences that include at least the CD4bs region of gp120. Methods for assembling contigs of HIV genome sequences that can be applied in this method are described, for example, in Huang, et al., Bioinformation. (2018) 14 (8): 449-454, Hiener, et al., J Vis Exp. (2018) Oct 16; (140). doi: 10.3791 / 58016, and Wymant, et al., Virus Evol. (2018) May 18; 4 (1): vey007. doi: 10.1093 / ve / vey007.

[0122] In some embodiments, the combination therapy comprises an antibody that binds to an epitope or region of the gp120 silent face and competes with or comprises a second VH and VL region from antibody VRC-PG05.
[0123] In some embodiments, the combination therapy includes an antibody that binds to an epitope or region of gp41 in the membrane proximal region (MPER) and competes with or includes a second VH and VL region from an antibody selected from the group consisting of 10E8, 10E8v4, 10E8-5R-100cF, 4E10, DH511.11P, 2F5, 7b2, and LN01.

[0126] Prior to administration, bNAbs can be modified to have enhanced drug-like properties, reduced immunogenicity, enhanced ADCC, and favorable pharmacokinetic properties. Such antibodies have been shown to bind to HIV envelope glycoproteins expressed on the surface of virions or infected cells and mediate both direct virus neutralization and potent NK, monocyte, and PBMC killing of these cells. This property allows the antibodies to treat HIV infection by neutralizing the virus and also to kill and eliminate latent HIV-infected cells in infected individuals, potentially resulting in a sterile cure for HIV.
[0127] In various embodiments, all antibodies administered in a combination anti-HIV antibody therapy may have Fc and / or post-translational modifications that increase serum half-life and / or enhance effector activity, as described above.

[Example]
[0214] The following examples are offered to illustrate, but not to limit, the claimed invention.
[0215] Example 1 Phase 1b study: 26W primary outcomes of a long-acting broadly neutralizing antibody in combination with lenacapavir GS-US-536-5816 (NCT04811040 on ClinicalTrials.gov) is a randomized, blinded, phase 1b, proof-of-concept study evaluating the safety and efficacy of a single dose of a long-acting regimen of lenacapvir, telopavimab (GS5423, 3BNC117-LS, TAB), and ginliruvimab (GS2872, 10-1074-LS, ZAB) in HIV-1-infected adults who were virologically suppressed (HIV-1 RNA <50 copies / mL) on oral ART.
[0216] Administration Participants were adults with HIV virological suppression on ART for ≥2 years (HIV-1 RNA <50 copies / mL), HIV proviral phenotype (PhenoSense mAb IC90 ≤2 μg / mL, Monogram Biosciences) sensitive to both bNAbs, and a CD4 nadir ≥350 and CD4 count ≥500 at study entry. Participants who provided written consent and met all eligibility criteria were randomized 1:1 to one of two treatment groups based on the dose of GS 2872 (10 mg / kg or 30 mg / kg IV). All participants received GS-5423 (30 mg / kg IV) and oral lenacapavir 600 mg on days 1 and 2, and injectable lenacapavir 927 mg subcutaneously on day 1. Participants were clinically monitored for plasma HIV-1 RNA every 4 weeks until the primary endpoint at week 26. The primary endpoint was safety, and secondary endpoints included virologic outcomes by FDA snapshot analysis.
[0217] In a first-in-human study of 3BNC117-LS (NCT03254277), 39 participants received a single dose of 3BNC117-LS at doses ranging from 3 to 30 mg / kg (IV) or 150 or 300 mg (SC). Five participants received placebo. Five of the 43 enrolled participants reported five solicited adverse events (AEs) within 4 weeks of administration, all of Grade 1 severity: injection site tenderness (2%), headache (2%), fatigue / fatigue (2%), and nausea (4%). In addition, 48 non-application-specific AEs were reported by 28 of the 43 enrolled participants, with 29 (58%) of the reported events occurring within 4 weeks of intraperitoneal administration of the study drug. Of the reported events, nine were grade 2 in severity (17%), two were grade 3 in severity (4%) (proteinuria and cellulitis requiring hospitalization for IV antibodies), and one was grade 4 in severity (hypokalemia). One participant was hospitalized with a transient ischemic attack secondary to a right carotid artery thrombosis. Further evaluation revealed a vascular anatomic abnormality likely leading to a thrombotic event. This serious AE was not considered related to IP. The most commonly reported AEs were those related to upper respiratory tract infection (14%), nausea (4%), and dizziness (4%).
[0218] In a first-in-human study of 10-1074-LS (NCT03554408), 77 participants were enrolled: 27 participants received a single dose of 10-1074-LS at doses ranging from 3 to 30 mg / kg (IV, n=15) or 140 or 280 mg (SC, n=12). Twelve additional participants received a single SC injection of a combination of 10-1074-LS and 3BNC117-LS, and 18 received three repeated SC injections (every 12 weeks) of the antibody cocktail. Ten participants received a single intravenous infusion of 10-1074-LS and 3BNC117-LS at a dose of 30 mg / kg of each antibody. The remaining 10 participants received placebo. As of July 2020, 20 solicited AEs were reported by 15 of the 77 enrolled participants, all of grade 1 severity: erythema / skin discoloration at the administration site (8%), pain (4%), and induration (2%), headache (4%), fever (4%), malaise / fatigue (3%), and myalgia (1%). In addition, 86 unsolicited AEs were reported by 46 participants. Of these, 29 (33.7%) of the 86 AEs occurred within 4 weeks of IP administration. Of the reported unsolicited AEs, 10 were grade 2 in severity (11.6%), and 8 reported events were grade 3 in severity (9.3%): kidney stones (1%), increased blood pressure (4%), decreased hemoglobin (1%), proteinuria (1%), and increased left-sided weakness (1%). Three participants who experienced a transient grade 3 increase in blood pressure on the day of IP administration had a pre-existing medical history of hypertension. The most common AEs were those related to upper respiratory tract infection (25%), localized musculoskeletal pain (8%), and gastroenteritis symptoms (8%).
[0219] NCT04811040 Phase 1b Study Overview Participants discontinued their background oral ART regimen one day before receiving study medication on Day 1. Of 124 screened participants, 55 were sensitive to both bNAbs, 21 were randomized, and 20 received the full study regimen. The median age was 44 years (IQR 34, 51), 14% were female, 14% were Black, 14% Asian, and 33% Hispanic / Latino, and the median CD4 count was 909 (IQR 687, 1270).
[0220] At week 26, all participants resumed their background oral ART baseline regimen (or an adapted regimen selected by the investigator) and returned to the clinic for visits at weeks 38 and 52.
[0221] Approximately 20 participants were in the primary cohort: adults with HIV-1 who had no history of virologic failure (VF) or antiretroviral drug resistance, a CD4 nadir ≥ 350 cells / µL, demonstrated virologic suppression (HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies / mL) for at least 18 months prior to screening, had been on first-line ART for at least 2 years, and were willing to change their ART regimen for the investigational strategy. A schematic diagram of the study is provided in Figure 1.
[0222] Twenty-one participants were enrolled and randomized in the primary cohort; 20 received the full study regimen (10 in each treatment group); 1 participant received oral lenacapavir and withdrew consent before completing the administration procedure. The median age of participants was 44 years (range, 25-61 years); 18 (86%) were male at birth; all had HIV-1 RNA <50 copies / mL and CD4 count >500 cells / µL. Demographic and baseline characteristics of enrolled participants are summarized in Table 1.
[0223] Therapeutic concentrations of telopavimab (TAB), zinziruvimab (ZAB), and lenacapavir (LEN) were maintained through week 26. These results are shown in Figure 1B. [Table 1]
[0224] Efficacy was assessed at the primary endpoint at week 26 according to the FDA Snapshot algorithm. One participant in group 1 had confirmed HIV RNA ≥ 50 copies / mL at week 16 (155 copies / mL, confirmed at 524 copies / mL) and was resuppressed upon resumption of baseline ART. One participant in group 2 withdrew consent at week 12 (HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies / mL). 18 / 20 (90%) participants had HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies / mL at week 26. Primary efficacy results are summarized in Table 2 and Figure 1C. [Table 2] ^Resistance testing pending * Withdrew from the study after 12 weeks $AE / reason other than death or lack of efficacy
[0225] There were no treatment-emergent serious adverse events, no treatment-emergent adverse events leading to discontinuation of the study drug or study, and no deaths. The most common treatment-emergent adverse event was an injection site reaction associated with administration of subcutaneous lenacapavir (LEN) (17 of 20 patients, or 85%). Two participants had grade 3 AEs: one had injection site cellulitis and one had injection site erythema at the LEN injection site. The combination of LEN + GS-5423 (telopavimab) + GS-2872 (ginriluvimab) was well tolerated with high efficacy for 6 months in selected virologically suppressed individuals living with HIV. These results are consistent with the conclusion that the combination of LEN + GS-5423 (telopavimab) + GS-2872 (ginriluvimab) provides long-acting treatment for HIV with twice-yearly administration.
[0226] Example 2 Modeling to determine a uniform annual schedule that allows for two doses per year In this example, we performed population PK (popPK) modeling and simulation to predict the PK profiles of GS-5423 (telopavimab) and GS-2872 (ginriluvimab) with weight-based dosing and flat dosing at different doses, and compared them with target efficacy levels to determine the optimal dose ranges of GS-5423 and GS-2872 with dosing every 6 months in adults with HIV.
[0227] method PK data for GS-5423 (telopavimab; 3BNC117-LS, TAB) and GS-2872 (dinlilvimab; 10-1074-LS, ZAB) were obtained from four clinical studies in viremic or virologically suppressed patients (TAB: n = 34, ZAB: n = 36) who received a single intravenous dose of TAB (30 mg / kg) and / or ZAB (10 or 30 mg / kg) alone, in combination with lenalidomide, or without lenalidomide. The studies included YCO-0946 (NCT03254277) and YCO-0971 (NCT03554408). Serum concentrations of TAB and ZAB were measured using the validated Mesa Scale Discovery electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. A two-compartment population PK model was developed to describe the PK data for GS-5423 and GS-2872 after IV and SC administration in HIV and HIV+ participants. See Joel S. Owen, Jill Fiedler-Kelly, "Introduction to Population Pharmacokinetic / Pharmacodynamic Analysis with Nonlinear Mixed Effects Models," Wiley; 1st edition, 2014 (ISBN: 9780470582299). Population PK models for TAB and ZAB were developed using nonlinear mixed-effects modeling. Covariate analysis was performed to identify significant covariates, including the effects of body weight, demographics, baseline characteristics, concomitant use regimens, and disease status, on the PK parameters of GS-5423 and GS-2872. Population PK models were simulated to predict the PK profiles of GS-5423 and GS-2872 after IV administration of a normalized dose of 30 or 10 mg / kg body weight or an equivalent flat dose every 6 months. Model simulations were performed to predict the concentrations of TAB and ZAB after flat versus weight-based dosing. The weight distribution is assumed to be consistent with previous studies in adults with HIV who are virologically suppressed on antiretroviral therapy (mean weight 85 kg).
[0228] result Simulations based on PK modeling of data from four clinical studies, including YCO-0946 and YCO-0971, showed that fixed doses of 2550 mg or 850 mg of GS-5423 or GS-2872 are expected to produce similar exposures as 30 mg / kg or 10 mg / kg body weight-based doses, respectively, without a significant increase in PK variability (Figures 3A-3D). Therefore, given that doses of GS-5423 and GS-2872 alone or in combination up to 30 mg / kg were well tolerated in the ongoing studies GS-US-536-5816 and previous studies in HIV+ participants, doses up to 2550 mg IV are expected to be safe for both GS-5423 and GS-2872 in adults with HIV infection.
[0229] GS-5423 (TAB) and GS-2872 (ZAB) PK data in PWH were adequately described by a two-compartment PopPK model. Increased body weight was associated with increased volume of distribution and clearance of both TAB and ZAB. PWH who were viremic had significantly increased clearance of TAB and ZAB compared with those suppressed at baseline. Model simulations suggest that a fixed dose of 2550 mg would result in similar exposures to 30 mg / kg for both TAB and ZAB, based on the weight distribution in a recent phase 3 HIV study of adult PWH, whose mean body weight was approximately 85 kg.
[0230] Previous studies of the non-LS forms of each antibody in HIV+ participants who underwent treatment interruption (Mendoza, et al., Nature. (2018) 561(7724):479-484 and Gaebler, et al., Nature (2022) 606(7913):368-374) showed that virologic suppression was generally maintained when serum concentrations of both antibodies exceeded 10 μg / mL. Based on PK simulations, 1700 mg of GS-5423 or 850 mg of GS-2872 are expected to maintain concentrations above 10 μg / mL in 99%-100% of subjects for 6 months (26 weeks) after dosing (Figures 4A-4B, Table 3). Therefore, a dose range of 1700 to 2550 mg GS-5423 and 850 to 2550 mg GS-2872 administered IV every 6 months is expected to be an effective and safe dose range for the two bNAbs. [Table 3]
[0231] Example 3 Assessment of therapeutic concentrations of anti-HIV antibodies 3BNC117 / telopavimab and 10-1074 / dinliruvimab by PK-PD modeling and washout period prediction in HIV cure trials 3BNC117 and 10-1074 have been shown to induce a rapid decline in viremia in people with HIV and delay the time to viral rebound in suppressed people with HIV during analytical treatment interruption (ATI) (Caskey, et al. Nature. 2015; 522:487-491, Caskey, et al. Nat Med. 2017; 23:185-191, Scheid, et al. Nature. 2016; 535:556-560, Mendoza, et al. Nature. 2018; 561:479-484, Bar-On, et al. Nat Med. 2018; 24:1701-1707, Gaebler, et al. Nature. 2022; 606:368-374). The combinations of 3BNC117 / TAB and 10-1074 / ZAB, along with immunomodulators, have been investigated for their potential to eliminate HIV reservoirs and induce long-term remission in people with HIV. However, due to their potent viral neutralizing effects, insufficient washout periods before antiretroviral therapy (ATI) can confound efficacy assessments of time to virologic rebound in HIV cure studies. The objectives of this study were to characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) relationships of these bNAbs through PK-PD viral dynamic modeling and to predict the required length of washout of TAB / ZAB in HIV cure studies to assess post-treatment viral control during antiretroviral therapy (ATI).
[0232] method Population PK and PK-PD models were developed using a nonlinear mixed-effects modeling approach based on serum bNAb concentration and / or viral dynamics data from six efficacy studies in people with HIV and three PK studies of 3BNC117 / TAB (GS-5423) and / or 10-1074 / ZAB (GS-2872) (Table 4). [Table 4]
[0233] bNAb concentrations were measured by ELISA assay, except for study NCT03526848 (Gaebler, et al. Nature. 2022;606:368-374). For this study, concentrations measured by the TZM-bl assay (Sarzotti-Kelsoe, et al. J Immunol Methods. 2014;409:131-146) were converted to ELISA data using a log-linear correlation model calibrated based on data from study NCT02825797 (Mendoza, et al. Nature. 2018;561:479-484, Bar-On Y, et al. Nat Med. 2018;24:1701-1707). PK data for bNAbs were modeled using a two-compartment linear PK model. Covariates (demographics, disease status, concomitant treatments) were tested using stepwise forward addition (α = 0.01) and backward elimination (α = 0.001) methods. The PK-PD model accounts for viral replication using a logistic growth function and viral clearance using first-order kinetics, with a nonlinear saturable (Emax) model to describe the relationship between bNAb concentration and viral clearance rate. Different viral populations sensitive or resistant to each bNAb were modeled to capture the mechanism of resistance selection in treated participants (Figure 5). PK and PK-PD models were fitted sequentially. Model evaluation was performed using standard diagnostic plots and visual predictive checks. Simulations were performed to predict the PK and kinetics of viral rebound during ATI after different washout periods following TAB / ZAB administration. Modeling was performed using Phoenix® NLME. Simulations and plots were performed using R software.
[0234] result PK Modeling. The PK data for 3BNC117, 10-1074, TAB, and ZAB were well described by a linear two-compartment PK model (Figure 6). For 3BNC117 and 10-1074, the estimated half-lives were longest in people without HIV, followed by suppressed people with HIV, and shortest in viremic people with HIV (Figure 7). For TAB and ZAB, the estimated half-lives were longer than those of 3BNC117 and 10-1074, similar between people without HIV and suppressed people with HIV (62 and 79 days for TAB and ZAB, respectively), and shorter in viremic people with HIV (46 and 55 days for TAB and ZAB, respectively) (Figure 7).
[0235] PK-PD Modeling. The PK-PD model adequately described the kinetics of viral suppression in viremic people with HIV after bNAb treatment with different doses of 3BNC117, 10-1074 alone and in combination, and after combined treatment with TAB and ZAB (Figure 8). The model described the time to viral rebound during ATI after bNAb treatment with 3BNC117 alone or in combination with 10-1074 (Figure 9). The median maximal drug effect (EC) of 3BNC117 / TAB and 10-1074 / ZAB was 1.25. 50 ) were estimated mean serum concentrations of 25.4 and 32.2 μg / mL, which corresponded to EC s of 6.35 and 8.06 μg / mL, respectively. 20 corresponds to (Table 5). [Table 5] CI, confidence interval; CV, coefficient of variation; EC 20 , the concentration that produces 20% of the maximum drug effect; EC 50 , concentration producing 50% of maximum drug effect; PD, pharmacodynamics; PK = pharmacokinetics; TAB, telopavimab; ZAB, zinliruvimab. a Mean (95% CI) EC was 6.35 (4.90–8.22) μg / mL 20 Corresponds to the value. bCorresponding to a mean (95% CI) EC20 value of 8.06 (2.53-25.7) μg / mL.
[0236] PK-PD Simulation. PK-PD simulations predicted that the viral neutralizing effects of these bNAbs would have minimal impact on the time to viral rebound during ATI after a washout period of 48 weeks or more following single-dose intravenous administration of TAB and ZAB (Figure 10). Following intravenous administration of 30 mg / kg / kg TAB and 10 mg / kg ZAB, concentrations of both bNAbs were predicted to fall below their in vivo EC50s at approximately similar times and to remain at similar levels compared to their EC50s thereafter, thus minimizing the risk of resistance development from functional monotherapy of either bNAb. At week 48, concentrations of both bNAbs were predicted to be below the EC50 in more than 90% of participants (Figure 11).
[0237] Example 4 A Phase 2 Study of Telopavimab (GS-5423) and Dinliruvimab (GS-2872) in Combination with the Capsid Inhibitor Lenacapavir (LEN) in Virologically Suppressed Adults with HIV-1 Infection Study Design: GS-US-539-5939 (NCT05729568 at ClinicalTrials.gov) is a phase 2, randomized, open-label, active-controlled, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a long-acting combination regimen of the capsid inhibitors lenacapavir (LEN), telopavimab (GS-5423), and ginlilvimab (GS-2872). The study will include approximately 125 participants who are sensitive to both bNAbs by protocol-defined criteria and meet eligibility criteria, and will be randomized without stratification in a 2:2:1 ratio to treatment arms 1, 2, and 3. A schematic diagram of the clinical trial study is shown in Figure 12.
[0238] Participants will take their last dose of baseline oral antiretroviral therapy (ART) on Day 1, and participants randomized to treatment arms 1 and 2 will discontinue their baseline ART regimen after administration of the full study regimen (subcutaneous injectable LEN, oral LEN 600 mg, and intravenous (IV) infusion of GS-5423 and GS-2872) on Day 1 and self-administer oral LEN 600 mg on Day 2. Participants in treatment arm 3 will continue their baseline oral ARV regimen as prescribed through Week 52. Participants randomized to treatment arms 1 and 2 will receive study medication (injectable LEN and IV infusion of GS-5423 and GS-2872) at Week 26. All participants in all treatment arms will return to the study center for visits at Weeks 4, 12, 24, 26, 38, 50, and 52.
[0239] At week 52, participants in treatment arms 1 and 2 who receive the study regimen of LEN, GS 5423, and GS-2872 and complete study follow-up through week 52 with HIV RNA plasma levels <50 copies / mL will be enrolled in the study extension phase. Participants who choose not to participate in the extension phase or who are ineligible to participate in the extension phase will resume their baseline ART regimen (or an appropriate regimen selected by the investigator) and return for study follow-up visits 30, 90, and 180 days after week 52. Participants randomized to treatment arm 3 who have HIV-1 RNA plasma levels <50 copies / mL throughout the randomization phase and complete study follow-up through week 52 will receive the study regimen of LEN, GS-5423, and GS-2872 every 26 weeks. The doses of GS-5423 and GS-2872 will be determined at the time of the primary analysis. Participants in Arm 3 who reach Week 52 before the primary analysis will receive the study regimen at the dose specified for Arm 2 until after completion of the primary analysis and dose selection (unless Arm 2 is amended in response to the data monitoring committee (DMC)). Participants in Arm 3 who are not receiving the study regimen after Week 52 will return for a 30-day follow-up visit.
[0240] An independent DMC will convene to review safety and efficacy data after two planned interim analyses: the first approximately 50% of enrolled participants complete the Week 12 and Week 26 visits, or after premature discontinuation of study drug. Additionally, if four or more participants in any LEN+bNAb treatment group in any cohort experience virologic rebound (VR) before all participants reach Week 26, an ad hoc DMC meeting may be held to evaluate the data.
[0241] Virologic Failure (VF): Participants who experience virologic rebound (VR), as defined below, are considered to be in the context of virologic failure and may be eligible for resistance analysis.
[0242] Virologic Rebound: Participants who meet the following criteria are considered to have VR: HIV-1 RNA rebound ≥ 50 copies / mL at any visit after Day 1, which is subsequently confirmed at the next scheduled or unscheduled visit, or Any participant with HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 copies / mL at the time of study drug discontinuation.
[0243] If the above scheduled or ad hoc interim DMC analysis of efficacy (based on virologic failure (VF) i.e., HIV-1 RNA plasma levels ≥ 50 copies / mL at Week 12, Week 26, or virologic rebound) exceeds the futility boundary (i.e., rate of VF > 0, and the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval (CI) of the treatment difference (Treatment Arm 1 or Arm 2 - Stay on Baseline Regimen (SBR))) before all participants reach Week 26, the DMC may recommend dropping the lower dose arm. The decision to discontinue a dosing arm is made by the Sponsor.
[0244] Target population: Adults with HIV-1 receiving ART who have demonstrated virologic suppression (plasma level of HIV-1 RNA <50 copies / mL) for at least 12 months prior to screening and who meet protocol criteria for sensitivity to bNAbs.
[0245] Intervention duration: up to 52 weeks during the randomized phase and 104 weeks during the extension phase. [Table 6] * PO = Per Os, given orally; SC = subcutaneous; IV = intravenous
[0246] Statistical Methods: The primary efficacy endpoint is the proportion of participants with HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 copies / mL at week 26, as defined by the FDA-defined Snapshot algorithm. 95% CIs will be constructed using the unconditional exact method. Efficacy endpoints will be compared between treatment groups by Fisher's exact test. The proportion of participants with HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 copies / mL at week 52 and the proportion of participants with HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies / mL at weeks 26 and 52, as determined by the US FDA-defined Snapshot algorithm, will be analyzed using the same methods as the primary efficacy endpoint.
[0247] Change from baseline in CD4+ T cell counts will be summarized by treatment using descriptive statistics. Differences in change from baseline in CD4+ T cell counts between the two treatment groups will be compared.
[0248] Treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), and adverse events leading to permanent study drug discontinuation will be summarized by treatment group, system organ class (SOC), and preferred terminology using the current version of the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). Laboratory test results and changes from baseline for selected laboratory tests will be summarized by treatment group and visit. The incidence of treatment-emergent laboratory abnormalities will be summarized by treatment group. Vital signs and electrocardiogram data will be summarized by treatment group.
[0249] Serum or plasma concentrations and PK parameters for GS-5423, GS-2872, and LEN (and metabolites, if applicable) will be listed and summarized for each analyte using descriptive statistics by treatment group, as appropriate. [Table 7]
