Abstract

This provides a novel therapeutic agent that can target HER2 in the brain parenchyma, transcending the blood-brain barrier (BBB). [Solution] In some embodiments, anti-HER2 constructs (e.g., Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion proteins) retain effector function upon binding to HER2 but do not substantially reduce reticulocytes in vivo. The disclosure also relates to methods for transcytosis of anti-HER2 antibody variable regions across the blood-brain barrier to treat HER2-positive cancers and their metastatic lesions.

Description

[Background technology]

[0001] background The treatment of brain metastases from cancers such as breast cancer currently presents a significant clinical challenge. Brain metastases occur in approximately 50% of breast cancer patients. Clinical data indicate that HER2-positive breast cancer tends to metastasize to the brain. In particular, anti-HER2 therapy has proven effective in controlling extracranial tumors, but not intracranial lesions. The failure of these therapies to control metastatic lesions, such as brain metastases from HER2-positive breast cancer, is primarily due to the inability of the drugs to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) ​​and access the brain parenchyma. Therefore, there is a need for new therapies that can cross the BBB and target HER2 within the brain parenchyma. [Overview of the project]

In some embodiments, the anti-HER2 construct includes an antibody variable region that can bind to HER2 fused to a modified Fc polypeptide that has been engineered to include a non-native TfR binding site, and is also referred to herein as an "Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein." For example, an Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein may include an anti-HER2 Fab fused to a modified Fc polypeptide dimer that includes a TfR binding site.

[0127] In other embodiments, the anti-HER2 construct includes an antibody variable region capable of binding to HER2 (e.g., subdomain I, II, or IV of human HER2) and an antibody variable region capable of binding to TfR.

[0128] Accordingly, this disclosure relates in part to Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion proteins and fragments thereof that bind to HER2 subdomain IV, subdomain II, or subdomain I, bind to TfR, and have reduced effector function (e.g., ADCC or CDC) upon binding to TfR, but still retain and exhibit levels of effector function (e.g., ADCC or CDC) when the Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein binds to HER2. This disclosure also relates in part to methods for delivering anti-HER2 therapeutic constructs across the BBB to treat HER2-positive cancer, as well as metastases of HER2-positive cancer. Surprisingly, as described herein, the use of combinations of Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion proteins targeting HER2 subdomains IV and II has been found to be more effective in inhibiting breast cancer cell growth than the use of combinations of anti-HER2 subdomain IV and anti-HER2 subdomain II antibodies. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the use of a combination of Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion proteins targeting HER2 subdomains IV and I is more effective in inhibiting breast cancer cell growth than the use of a combination of anti-HER2 subdomain IV and anti-HER2 subdomain I antibodies. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the use of a combination of Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion proteins targeting HER2 subdomains II and I is more effective in inhibiting breast cancer cell growth than the use of a combination of anti-HER2 subdomain II and anti-HER2 subdomain I antibodies.

[0129] Furthermore, using Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion proteins targeting HER2 subdomain IV, subdomain II, or subdomain I individually is more effective in inhibiting breast cancer cell growth than using anti-HER2 subdomain IV antibodies, anti-HER2 subdomain II antibodies, or anti-HER2 subdomain I antibodies, respectively.

[0130] In other embodiments, the disclosure also relates in part to the use of an anti-HER2 construct comprising an antibody variable region capable of binding to HER2 (e.g., subdomains I, II, or IV of human HER2) and an antibody variable region capable of binding to TfR in order to inhibit breast cancer cell growth. Using such an anti-HER2 construct having bispecificity to HER2 (e.g., subdomains I, II, or IV of human HER2) and TfR is more effective in inhibiting breast cancer cell growth than using an anti-HER2 antibody (e.g., an anti-HER2 subdomain I antibody, an anti-HER2 subdomain II antibody, or an anti-HER2 subdomain IV antibody) alone.

[0131] II. Definition As used herein, unless the content clearly indicates otherwise, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" refer to multiple objects. Therefore, for example, a reference to "polypeptide" may include two or more such molecules.

[0132] As used herein, the terms “about” and “approximately” mean, when used to modify a quantity specified by a number or range, that a reasonable deviation from the number, as well as from a value known to those skilled in the art, such as ±20%, ±10%, or ±5%, falls within the intended meaning of the enumerated value.

[0133] Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, HER2, HER2 / neu, and ERBB2 (also known as CD340, receptor tyrosine-protein kinase erbB-2, proto-oncogene, and Neu) refer to the tyrosine receptor kinase protein encoded by the ERBB2 gene in humans, which is a member of the human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER / EGFR / ERBB) family. Amplification or overexpression of HER2 plays a significant role in the development and progression of certain aggressive types of cancer, including breast cancer. Non-exclusive examples of human HER2 nucleotide sequences are defined in GenBank reference numbers NP_001005862, NP_001289936, NP_001289937, NP_001289938, and NP_004448. Non-restrictive examples of human HER2 peptide sequences are defined in GenBank reference numbers NP_001005862, NP_001276865, NP_001276866, NP_001276867, and NP_004439.

[0134] The extracellular domain of HER2, containing approximately 600 amino acids, includes four subdomains (subdomains I, II, III, and IV). Subdomains I and III form the ligand-binding site. Cysteine-rich subdomains II and IV are involved in receptor homodimerization and heterodimerization. Anti-HER2 therapeutic constructs can bind to specific subdomains (e.g., subdomain II or subdomain IV).

[0135] When HER2 is amplified or overexpressed in cells, the cells are referred to as "HER2-positive" or "HER2+". The level of HER2 amplification or overexpression in HER2-positive cells is generally expressed as a score ranging from 0 to 3 (i.e., HER2 0, HER2 1+, HER2 2+, or HER2 3+), with higher scores corresponding to a greater degree of expression.

[0136] HER2 testing methods include immunohistochemistry (IHC), fluorescence insight hybridization (FISH), ELISA, and RNA quantification (e.g., of HER2 expression), such as RT-PCR and microarray analysis. HER2 testing may be performed on subjects (e.g., patients) being considered for anti-HER2 therapy.

[0137] As used herein, the term “anti-HER2 construct” refers to a molecular (e.g., protein) construct that binds to (a) subdomains I, II, or IV of human HER2 and (b) the transferrin receptor (TfR). An anti-HER2 construct may include an antibody-variable region capable of binding to human HER2. In some embodiments, the anti-HER2 construct is an Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody-variable region fusion protein comprising an antibody-variable region capable of binding to human HER2 and a modified Fc polypeptide dimer comprising a first Fc polypeptide with modifications to create a TfR binding site. In other embodiments, the anti-HER2 construct is a bispecific construct comprising an antibody-variable region capable of binding to human HER2 and an antibody-variable region that binds to TfR. Anti-HER2 constructs described herein can bind to subdomains I, II, or IV of human HER2.

[0138] As used herein, the terms “anti-HER2-DI,” “anti-HER2-DII,” or “anti-HER2-DIV” refer to antibodies that bind to human HER2 subdomains I, II, or IV, respectively.

[0139] As used herein, the term “Fc polypeptide” refers to the C-terminal region of a naturally occurring immunoglobulin heavy chain polypeptide characterized by an Ig fold as a structural domain. An Fc polypeptide comprises a constant region sequence containing at least a CH2 domain and / or a CH3 domain, and may include at least a portion of a hinge region. Generally, Fc polypeptides do not contain a variable region.

[0140] A "modified Fc polypeptide" refers to an Fc polypeptide that has at least one mutation, e.g., substitution, deletion, or insertion, compared to a wild-type immunoglobulin heavy chain Fc polypeptide sequence, but retains the overall Ig fold or structure of the native Fc polypeptide.

[0141] As used herein, the term “Fc polypeptide dimer” refers to a dimer of two Fc polypeptides. In some embodiments, an Fc polypeptide dimer can bind to an Fc receptor (e.g., FcγR). In an Fc polypeptide dimer, two Fc polypeptides dimerize through an interaction between two CH3 antibody constant domains. In some embodiments, two Fc polypeptides may also dimerize via one or more disulfide bonds formed between the hinge domains of two dimerized Fc domain monomers. An Fc polypeptide dimer may be a wild-type Fc polypeptide dimer or a modified Fc polypeptide dimer. A wild-type Fc polypeptide dimer is formed by the dimerization of two wild-type Fc polypeptides. An Fc polypeptide dimer may be a heterodimer or a homodimer.

[0142] As used herein, the term “modified Fc polypeptide dimer” refers to an Fc polypeptide dimer comprising at least one modified Fc polypeptide. In some embodiments, a modified Fc polypeptide dimer comprises two modified Fc polypeptides. A modified Fc polypeptide dimer may be a homodimer (i.e., comprising two identical modified Fc polypeptides) or a heterodimer (i.e., comprising two different Fc polypeptides, with at least one of the two Fc polypeptides being a modified Fc polypeptide).

[0143] As used herein, “transferrin receptor” or “TfR” refers to transferrin receptor protein 1. The human transferrin receptor 1 polypeptide sequence is defined in Sequence ID No. 102. Transferrin receptor protein 1 sequences from other species are also known (e.g., chimpanzee, accession number XP_003310238.1; rhesus macaque, NP_001244232.1; dog, NP_001003111.1; cattle, NP_001193506.1; mouse, NP_035768.1; rat, NP_073203.1; and chicken, NP_990587.1). The term “transferrin receptor” also includes exemplary reference sequences, such as allele variants of the human sequence encoded by the gene at the transferrin receptor protein 1 locus. The full-length TfR protein includes a short N-terminal intracellular domain, a transmembrane domain, and a large extracellular domain. The extracellular domain is characterized by three domains: a protease-like domain, a helical domain, and an apical domain. The apical domain sequence of human transferrin receptor 1 is defined as sequence number 103.

[0144] As used herein, the terms “Fcγ receptor” or “FcγR” refer to a single type of Fc receptor, classified based on the type of antibody they recognize. FcγRs include several members such as FcγRI(CD64), FcγRIIA(CD32), FcγRIIB(CD32), FcγRIIIA(CD16a), and FcγRIIIB(CD16b), which differ in their antibody affinity due to their different molecular structures. FcγRs are important for binding to the Fc portion of IgG class antibodies and inducing phagocytosis of opsonized microorganisms. FcγRs are found on the cell surface of immune system cells. FcγRs are involved in inducing effector functions of the immune system and are activated upon binding of the Fc portion of an antibody to the receptor. FcγRs mediate immune functions, for example, by binding to antibodies attached to infected cells or invading pathogens and stimulating phagocytic or cytotoxic cells to destroy microorganisms or infected cells by antibody-mediated phagocytosis or ADCC.

[0145] As used herein, the term “reducing FcγR binding” refers to a modified Fc polypeptide or modified Fc polypeptide dimer containing a mutation in the CH3 domain of the modified Fc polypeptide, the mutation reducing the affinity of the modified Fc polypeptide to FcγR by 0.01% to 90% (e.g., 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, or 90%) compared to the affinity of an Fc polypeptide that does not contain the mutation reducing FcγR binding (e.g., a wild-type Fc polypeptide dimer). FcγR binding can be measured, for example, using a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) method (e.g., the Biacore® system). Alternatively, FcγR binding can be measured using functional assays, such as ADCC assays (e.g., in vivo or in vitro assays of cell death) as described herein. The reduction in FcγR binding can be measured when the modified Fc polypeptide dimer binds to TfR. In some embodiments, the modified Fc polypeptide or Fc polypeptide dimer has reduced FcγR binding when bound to TfR, but may have a limited reduction (e.g., a reduction of less than 25%, 20%, 15%, 10%, 8%, 5%, 3%, 2%, or 1%) or no reduction when not bound to TfR.

[0146] Where further described herein, a modified Fc polypeptide dimer may comprise a first Fc polypeptide having both a TfR binding site and a mutation that reduces FcγR binding upon TfR binding, and a second Fc polypeptide having neither a TfR binding site nor a mutation that reduces FcγR binding. Thus, upon TfR association, the resulting asymmetric Fc polypeptide dimer having the first and second Fc polypeptides may have an overall reduced affinity for FcγR. On the other hand, when not bound to TfR, there may be a limited reduction in FcγR binding (e.g., as described above) or no reduction at all.

[0147] The term "FcRn" refers to the fetal Fc receptor. Binding of Fc polypeptides to FcRn reduces the clearance of Fc polypeptides and increases their serum half-life. The human FcRn protein is a heterodimer consisting of a protein approximately 50 kDa in size that is similar to major histocompatibility (MHC) class I proteins, and β2-microglobulin approximately 15 kDa in size.

[0148] As used herein, “FcRn binding site” refers to a region of an Fc polypeptide that binds to FcRn. In human IgG, when numbered using the EU numbering scheme, FcRn binding sites include L251, M252, I253, S254, R255, T256, M428, H433, N434, H435, and Y436. These positions correspond to positions 21-26, 198, and 203-206 of SEQ ID NO: 99.

[0149] As used herein, “natural FcRn binding site” refers to a region of an Fc polypeptide that binds to FcRn and has the same amino acid sequence as the region of a naturally occurring Fc polypeptide that binds to FcRn.

[0150] As used herein, the terms “substantially no reduction in reticulocytes” or “substantially no reduction in reticulocytes in vivo” mean that the reduction in reticulocytes (e.g., reduction of bone marrow reticulocytes or circulating reticulocytes) caused by the effector-function-positive TfR-binding Fc polypeptide dimer or the Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein described herein, which includes the effector-function-positive TfR-binding Fc polypeptide dimer, is compared to a control, e.g., a control having full effector function and / or reducing FcγR binding. This means that the reduction in reticulocytes (e.g., bone marrow reticulocytes or circulating reticulocytes) caused by an antibody containing a corresponding TfR-binding Fc dimer or Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein that does not contain mutations that reduce FcγR binding, or an antibody that has full effector function and / or does not contain mutations that reduce FcγR binding, is less than (e.g., less than 80%, 75%, 70%, 65%, 60%, 55%, 50%, 45%, 40%, 35%, 30%, 25%, 20%, 15%, 10%, 8%, 5%, 3%, 2%, or 1%).

[0151] The terms "substantially no reduction in reticulocytes" or "substantially no reduction in reticulocytes in vivo" mean that the amount or percentage of remaining reticulocytes (e.g., remaining reticulocytes in bone marrow or circulating reticulocytes) after administration of an effector-function-positive TfR-binding Fc polypeptide dimer or an Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein described herein, including an effector-function-positive TfR-binding Fc polypeptide dimer, is greater than that of a control (e.g., one with full effector function and / or FcγR binding). This can also mean exceeding the amount or percentage of remaining reticulocytes (e.g., remaining reticulocytes in the bone marrow or circulation) after administration of a corresponding TfR-binding Fc dimer or Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein that does not contain mutations that reduce FcγR binding, or an antibody that has full effector function and / or contains a corresponding TfR-binding Fc dimer that does not contain mutations that reduce FcγR binding (e.g., exceeding at least 1%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, or 50% of the total).

[0152] The amount or percentage of reticulocytes (e.g., bone marrow or circulating reticulocytes), or the amount or percentage of remaining reticulocytes (e.g., bone marrow or remaining circulating reticulocytes), is determined by human TfR knock-in (TfR) which is engineered to replace mouse TfR with human apical domain / mouse chimeric TfR protein. ms / hu KI) Mouse (for example, human TfR apical domain knock-in mouse ("hTfR アピカル Measurements can be made in "knock-in mice" or in non-human primates such as cynomolgus monkeys. Measurements can be made by intravenous administration of a modified Fc dimer or control, for example, 25-50 mg / kg (e.g., TfR). ms / hu In KI mice, circulating reticulocytes can be measured at 24 hours post-administration by cytochemical reactions using the Advia 120 hematology system, as described herein. Bone marrow reticulocytes can be measured using Ter119, as described herein. + hCD71 hi , and FSClow FACS sorting can be used to measure the grouping of a population.

[0153] As used herein, the terms “CH3 domain” and “CH2 domain” refer to immunoglobulin constant region domain polypeptides. In the context of IgG antibodies, the CH3 domain polypeptide refers to the amino acid segment from approximately position 341 to approximately position 447, numbered according to the EU numbering scheme, and the CH2 domain polypeptide refers to the amino acid segment from approximately position 231 to approximately position 340, numbered according to the EU numbering scheme. CH2 and CH3 domain polypeptides may also be numbered according to the IMGT (ImMunoGeneTics) numbering scheme, where the CH2 domain is numbered from 1 to 110 and the CH3 domain is numbered from 1 to 107, according to the IMGT Scientific chart numbering (IMGT website). The CH2 and CH3 domains are part of the Fc region of immunoglobulins. In the context of IgG antibodies, the Fc region refers to the amino acid segment from approximately position 231 to approximately position 447, numbered according to the EU numbering scheme. As used herein, the term “Fc region” may also include at least a portion of the hinge region of an antibody. An exemplary hinge region sequence is defined in SEQ ID NO: 104.

[0154] The term "variable region" refers to a domain in the antibody heavy or light chain that originates from germline variable (V) genes, diversity (D) genes, or binding (J) genes (and does not originate from stationary (Cμ and Cδ) gene segments) and gives the antibody its specificity for binding to an antigen. Typically, an antibody variable region contains four conserved "framework" regions interspersed with three hypervariable "complementarity-determining regions."

[0155] The terms “wild-type,” “natural,” and “naturally occurring” with respect to CH3 or CH2 domains are used herein to refer to domains having naturally occurring sequences.

[0156] As used herein, the term “variant” with respect to a mutant polypeptide or mutant polynucleotide is to be used interchangeably with “variant.” A variant with respect to a given wild-type CH3 or CH2 domain reference sequence may include naturally occurring allelic variants. A “non-naturally occurring” CH3 or CH2 domain refers to a variant or mutant domain that is not present in cells in nature and is produced by genetic modification, for example, using genetic manipulation or mutagenesis techniques of a natural CH3 or CH2 domain polynucleotide or polypeptide. A “variant” includes any domain that contains at least one amino acid mutation with respect to the wild type. Mutations may include substitutions, insertions, and deletions.

[0157] The term "amino acid" refers to naturally occurring amino acids, synthetic amino acids, as well as amino acid analogs and amino acid mimics that function in a similar manner to naturally occurring amino acids.

[0158] Naturally occurring amino acids are those encoded by the genetic code, as well as those that have been later modified, such as hydroxyproline, γ-carboxyglutamate, and O-phosphoserine. "Amino acid analogs" refer to compounds that have the same basic chemical structure as naturally occurring amino acids, i.e., hydrogen, a carboxyl group, an amino group, and an α-carbon bonded to an R group, such as homoserine, norleucine, methionine sulfoxide, and methionine methylsulfonium. Such analogs have a modified R group (e.g., norleucine) or a modified peptide skeleton, but retain the same basic chemical structure as naturally occurring amino acids. "Amino acid mimes" refer to chemical compounds that have a different structure from the general chemical structure of amino acids, but function in a similar manner to naturally occurring amino acids.

[0159] Naturally occurring α-amino acids include, without limitation, alanine (Ala), cysteine ​​(Cys), aspartic acid (Asp), glutamic acid (Glu), phenylalanine (Phe), glycine (Gly), histidine (His), isoleucine (Ile), arginine (Arg), lysine (Lys), leucine (Leu), methionine (Met), asparagine (Asn), proline (Pro), glutamine (Gln), serine (Ser), threonine (Thr), valine (Val), tryptophan (Trp), tyrosine (Tyr), and combinations thereof. Naturally occurring stereoisomers of α-amino acids include, without limitation, D-alanine (D-Ala), D-cysteine ​​(D-Cys), D-aspartic acid (D-Asp), D-glutamic acid (D-Glu), D-phenylalanine (D-Phe), D-histidine (D-His), D-isoleucine (D-Ile), D-arginine (D-Arg), D-lysine (D-Lys), D-leucine (D-Leu), D-methionine (D-Met), D-asparagine (D-Asn), D-proline (D-Pro), D-glutamine (D-Gln), D-serine (D-Ser), D-threonine (D-Thr), D-valine (D-Val), D-tryptophan (D-Trp), D-tyrosine (D-Tyr), and combinations thereof.

[0160] Amino acids may be referred herein by either their commonly known three-letter symbols or the one-letter symbols recommended by the IUPAC-IUB Biochemical Nomenclature Commission.

[0161] The terms “polypeptide” and “peptide” are used interchangeably herein to refer to polymers of amino acid residues in a single chain. These terms apply to amino acid polymers, as well as naturally occurring amino acid polymers and unnaturally occurring amino acid polymers, in which one or more amino acid residues are artificial chemical mimics of corresponding naturally occurring amino acids. Amino acid polymers may consist entirely of L-amino acids, entirely of D-amino acids, or mixtures of L and D amino acids.

[0162] As used herein, the term “protein” refers to either a single-chain polypeptide, a dimer (i.e., two), or a polymer (i.e., three or more). The single-chain polypeptides of a protein may be linked by covalent bonds, such as disulfide bonds, or by non-covalent interactions.

[0163] The terms "conservative substitution," "conservative mutation," or "conservatively modified variant" refer to changes that result in the substitution of an amino acid in another amino acid that can be classified as having similar characteristics. Examples of classifications of conserved amino acid groups defined in this way include the "charged / polar group" containing Glu (glutamic acid or E), Asp (aspartic acid or D), Asn (asparagine or N), Gln (glutamine or Q), Lys (lysine or K), Arg (arginine or R), and His (histidine or H); the "aromatic group" containing Phe (phenylalanine or F), Tyr (tyrosine or Y), Trp (tryptophan or W), and (histidine or H); and the "aliphatic group" containing Gly (glycine or G), Ala (alanine or A), Val (valine or V), Leu (leucine or L), Ile (isoleucine or I), Met (methionine or M), Ser (serine or S), Thr (threonine or T), and Cys (cysteine ​​or C). Within each group, subgroups may also be identified. For example, a group of charged or polar amino acids can be subdivided into subgroups including a "positively charged subgroup" containing Lys, Arg, and His; a "negatively charged subgroup" containing Glu and Asp; and a "polar subgroup" containing Asn and Gln. In another example, a group of aromatic or cyclic amino acids can be subdivided into subgroups including a "nitrogen ring subgroup" containing Pro, His, and Trp; and a "phenyl subgroup" containing Phe and Tyr. In yet another example, an aliphatic group can be subdivided into subgroups, for example, an "aliphatic nonpolar subgroup" containing Val, Leu, Gly, and Ala; and an "aliphatic micropolar subgroup" containing Met, Ser, Thr, and Cys. Examples of the classification of conservative mutations include, but are not limited to, amino acid substitutions of amino acids within the above subgroups, such as Lys for Arg or vice versa, where a positive charge may be maintained; Glu for Asp or vice versa, where a negative charge may be maintained; Ser for Thr or vice versa, where a free -OH group may be maintained; and Gln for Asn or vice versa, where a free -NH2 group may be maintained.In some embodiments, hydrophobic amino acids are substituted for naturally occurring hydrophobic amino acids in the active site, for example, in order to preserve hydrophobicity.

[0164] In the context of two or more polypeptide sequences, the term “identical” or “identity” percentage refers to two or more sequences or subsequences that, when compared and aligned for maximum match across a comparison window or specified region, are identical, the same, or have a specified percentage of amino acid residues, e.g., at least 60% identity, at least 65%, at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, or at least 95% or more, when measured using a sequence comparison algorithm or by manual alignment and visual inspection.

[0165] For polypeptide sequence comparison, typically, one amino acid sequence serves as a reference sequence compared to the candidate sequences. Alignment can be performed using various methods available to those skilled in the art, such as visual alignment or using publicly available software that employs known algorithms to achieve maximum alignment. Such programs include the BLAST program, ALIGN, ALIGN-2 (Genentech, South San Francisco, Calif.), or Megalign (DNASTAR). The parameters used for alignment to achieve maximum alignment can be determined by those skilled in the art. For polypeptide sequence comparison for the purposes of this application, the BLASTP algorithm standard protein BLAST is used to align two protein sequences using default parameters.

[0166] The terms "corresponding to", "determined with reference to", or "numbered with reference to" when used in the context of a given amino acid residue in a polypeptide sequence refer to the position of the residue of the designated reference sequence when the given amino acid sequence is maximally aligned and compared to the reference sequence. Thus, for example, when optimally aligned with SEQ ID NO:99, an amino acid residue in a polypeptide "corresponds to" an amino acid in the region of SEQ ID NO:99 when the residue aligns with the amino acid of SEQ ID NO:99. A polypeptide aligned to a reference sequence need not be of the same length as the reference sequence.

[0167] As used herein, the terms "specifically binds to" or "selectively binds to" a target, e.g., TfR or FcγR, when referring to a polypeptide comprising a modified CH3 domain described herein, refer to a binding reaction in which the polypeptide binds to the target with greater affinity, greater avidity, and / or for a longer duration than it binds to structurally distinct targets. In typical embodiments, the polypeptide has at least 5-fold, 6-fold, 7-fold, 8-fold, 9-fold, 10-fold, 20-fold, 25-fold, 50-fold, 100-fold, 1,000-fold, 10,000-fold, or greater affinity for a particular target, e.g., TfR or FcγR, compared to an irrelevant target when assayed under the same affinity assay conditions. As used herein, the terms "specific binding to", "specifically binds to", or "is specific for" a particular target (e.g., e.g., TfR or FcγR) refer to, for example, an equilibrium dissociation constant K -4 of 10 -5 M or less (e.g., 10 -6 M, 10 -7 M, 10 -8 M, 10 -9 M, 10 -10 M, 10 -11 M, or 10 -12 M) for the target, e.g., e.g., TfR or FcγR. DThis can be expressed by molecules having the following characteristics. In some embodiments, the modified CH3 domain polypeptide specifically binds to an epitope on TfR that is conserved between species (e.g., structurally conserved between species), such as one conserved between non-human primates and the human species (e.g., structurally conserved between non-human primates and the human species). In some embodiments, the polypeptide may bind exclusively to human TfRs.

[0168] As used herein, the term “binding affinity” refers to the strength of a non-covalent interaction between two molecules, for example, a single binding site on a polypeptide and the target to which it binds, for example, TfR. Therefore, unless otherwise indicated or evident from the context, this term may refer to a 1:1 interaction between a polypeptide and its target. Binding affinity is defined by the equilibrium dissociation constant (K). D It can be quantified by measuring the coupling rate constant (k a ,time -1 M -1 The dissociation rate constant (k) divided by ) d ,time -1 ) refers to K D This can be determined by measuring the dynamics of complex formation and dissociation, for example, by using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) methods, such as the Biacore® system; kinetic exclusion assays such as KinExA®; and BioLayer interferometry (e.g., using the ForteBio® Octet® platform). As used herein, “binding affinity” can reflect not only formal binding affinity, such as a 1:1 interaction between a polypeptide and its target, but also K, which can reflect strong binding. D This includes the apparent affinity that is calculated.

[0169] The terms “antigen-binding region” and “antigen-binding fragment” are used interchangeably herein and refer to one or more fragments of an antibody variable region that possess the ability to specifically bind to an antigen (e.g., HER2). Examples of antigen-binding fragments include, but are not limited to, Fab fragments (monovalent fragments consisting of VL, VH, CL, and CH1 domains), F(ab')2 fragments (bivalent fragments containing two Fab fragments linked by disulfide crosslinks at a hinge region), single-chain Fv (scFv), disulfide-linked Fv (dsFv), complementarity-determining regions (CDRs), VL (light chain variable region), VH (heavy chain variable region), nanobodies, diabodies, and other forms described in Spiess et al., Mol.Immun.67(2015)95-106, which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0170] The term "complementarity-determining region" or "CDR" refers to three hypervariable regions in each chain that interrupt the four framework regions established by the light and heavy chain variable regions. CDRs are primarily involved in antibody binding to the antigen's epitope. The CDRs in each chain are typically referred to as CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3, numbered sequentially starting from the N-terminus, and are typically also identified by the chain in which a particular CDR is located. Thus, VH CDR3 or CDR-H3 is located in the variable region of the heavy chain of the antibody in which it is found, while VL CDR1 or CDR-L1 is a CDR1 from the variable region of the light chain of the antibody in which it is found.

[0171] Different light chain or heavy chain "framework regions" or "FRs" are relatively conserved within a species. The antibody framework region, that is, the combined framework region of the constituent light and heavy chains, works to arrange and align the CDRs in three-dimensional space. Framework sequences can be obtained from public DNA databases containing germline antibody gene sequences or from published references. For example, germline DNA sequences of human heavy chain and light chain variable region genes can be found in the "VBASE2" germline variable gene sequence database for human and mouse sequences.

[0172] The amino acid sequences of the CDR and framework region can be determined using various definitions well known in the art, such as Kabat, Chothia, the International ImMunoGeneTics Database (IMGT), AbM, and observed antigen contact ("Contact"). In some embodiments, the CDR is determined according to the Contact definition. See MacCallum et al., J.Mol.Biol., 262:732-745 (1996). In some embodiments, the CDR is determined by a combination of the Kabat, Chothia, and Contact CDR definitions.

[0173] Where used interchangeably in this specification, the terms “subject,” “individual,” and “patient” refer to mammals, including, but not limited to, humans, non-human primates, rodents (e.g., rats, mice, and guinea pigs), rabbits, cows, pigs, horses, and other mammalian species. In one embodiment, the patient is a human.

[0174] Terms such as “treatment” and “to treat” are used herein to mean, in general, obtaining a desired pharmacological and / or physiological effect. “To treat” or “treatment” may refer to any indication of successful treatment or improvement of cancer (e.g., HER2-positive and / or metastatic cancer), including any objective or subjective parameters such as relief, remission, improved patient survival, increased survival time or rate, attenuation of symptoms or making the disease more tolerable for the patient, slowing in the rate of degeneration or decline, or improvement of the patient’s physical or mental health. Treatment or improvement of symptoms may be based on objective or subjective parameters. The effect of treatment may be compared to an untreated individual or a pool of individuals, or to the same patient at different points in time before or during treatment.

[0175] The term "pharmaceutically acceptable excipient" refers to, but is not limited to, non-active pharmaceutical ingredients that are biologically or pharmacologically compatible for use in humans or animals, such as buffers, carriers, or preservatives.

[0176] As used herein, “therapeutic dose” or “therapeutically effective dose” of a construct (e.g., an antibody described herein) is the amount of construct that treats, alleviates, reduces, or diminishes the severity of symptoms of a disease in a subject. A “therapeutic dose” or “therapeutically effective dose” of a construct (e.g., an Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein or antibody heavy chain) may improve patient survival, increase survival time or rate, reduce symptoms, make the patient more tolerable of injury, disease, or condition (e.g., cancer such as HER2-positive and / or metastatic cancer), slow the rate of degeneration or decay, or improve the patient’s physical or mental health.

[0177] The term "administer" refers to a method of delivering a construct, compound, or composition to a desired site of biological action. These methods include, but are not limited to, topical delivery, parenteral delivery, intravenous delivery, intradermal delivery, intramuscular delivery, intrathecal delivery, colonic delivery, rectal delivery, or intraperitoneal delivery. In one embodiment, the antibody described herein is administered intravenously.

[0178] III. FC polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein In some embodiments, the disclosure provides an Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein capable of binding to human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2) and modified to bind to the transferrin receptor (TfR), thereby enabling the Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB). In some embodiments, the Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein provided herein retains effector function upon binding to HER2 but has reduced effector function upon binding to TfR. In this configuration, the Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein can transport the anti-HER2 antibody variable region (e.g., forming part of the Fab domain) across the BBB without substantial reduction in reticulocytes (including TfR on the cell surface), and still exhibit effector function capable of targeting cancer cells (e.g., HER2-positive cancer cells or their metastases).

[0179] In some embodiments, provided herein are effector-positive, cis-configured Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion proteins, where only one (but not both) of the Fc polypeptides in the Fc polypeptide dimer is modified to have a TfR binding site and a modification that reduces FcγR binding when bound to TfR. In these embodiments, the other Fc polypeptide in the Fc polypeptide dimer does not include either a TfR binding site or a modification that substantially reduces FcγR binding. The trans configuration of the modified Fc polypeptide dimer refers to an Fc polypeptide dimer in which one of the two Fc polypeptides contains a TfR binding site, while the other Fc polypeptide includes a modification that, for example, reduces effector function when bound to TfR. Modified Fc polypeptide dimers having a cis configuration rather than a trans configuration can reduce reticulocyte reduction in blood and bone marrow.

[0180] In some embodiments, the Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion proteins provided herein do not substantially reduce reticulocytes (e.g., in the bone marrow and / or circulation). In some embodiments, the Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion proteins do not substantially reduce reticulocytes in vivo. In some embodiments, the amount of reticulocyte reduction after administration of the Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein is less than the amount of reticulocyte reduction after administration of the control. In some embodiments, the control is the corresponding TfR-binding polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein that has full effector function and / or does not contain mutations that reduce FcγR binding. In some cases, the control is an Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein in which the first Fc polypeptide contains an amino acid sequence defined as SEQ ID NOs: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 29, 31, 33, 35, 37, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47, 49, 51, 81, 83, 85, 87, 89, 91, 93, 95, 258, 260, 262, 264, 266, 268, 270, 272, 274, 276, 278, or 280 (i.e., the first Fc polypeptide specifically binds to TfR containing a TfR binding site but does not contain LALA substitutions or other modifications that reduce FcγR binding), and the second Fc polypeptide does not contain any modifications that reduce the TfR binding site or FcγR binding.

[0181] In some embodiments, the Fc polypeptide dimer-antibody variable region fusion protein comprises (a) an antibody variable region (e.g., subdomain II or IV of HER2) or an antigen-binding fragment thereof that can bind to HER2, and (b) a modified Fc polypeptide dimer comprising a first Fc polypeptide comprising modifications that create a TfR binding site. In some embodiments, the modified Fc polypeptide dimer comprises a second Fc polypeptide that does not contain a TfR binding site. In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide comprises amino acid modifications that reduce FcγR binding when bound to TfR. In some embodiments, the second Fc polypeptide comprises amino acid modifications that reduce FcγR binding when bound to TfR. In some embodiments, the first and second Fc polypeptides comprise amino acid modifications that reduce FcγR binding when bound to TfR. In some embodiments, the first and / or second Fc polypeptides comprise amino acid modifications that reduce FcγR binding when bound to TfR. In some embodiments, amino acid modifications that reduce FcγR binding when bound to TfR include Ala at positions 234 and 235, according to EU numbering.

[0182] In some embodiments, the first and / or second Fc polypeptide includes an amino acid modification that increases the serum half-life. In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide includes an amino acid modification that increases the serum half-life. In some embodiments, the second Fc polypeptide includes an amino acid modification that increases the serum half-life. In some embodiments, the first and second Fc polypeptides include an amino acid modification that increases the serum half-life. In some embodiments, the amino acid modification that increases the serum half-life includes, according to EU numbering, (i) Leu at position 428 and Ser at position 434, or (ii) Ser or Ala at position 434.

[0284] IV. TFR-binding FC polypeptide This section describes modified Fc polypeptides that can bind to TfR and be transported across the blood-brain barrier (BBB).

[0285] CH3 TfR-binding polypeptide In some embodiments, the modified Fc polypeptide includes a modified human Ig CH3 domain, such as an IgG CH3 domain. The CH3 domain may be from any IgG subtype, i.e., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, or IgG4. In the context of IgG antibodies, the CH3 domain refers to a segment of amino acids numbered according to the EU numbering scheme, from approximately position 341 to approximately position 447. For the purpose of identifying the corresponding set of amino acid positions for TfR binding, the positions in the CH3 domain are determined by reference to amino acids 111-217 of the EU numbering scheme, SEQ ID NO: 101, or SEQ ID NO: 99, unless otherwise specified. Substitutions are also determined by reference to the EU numbering scheme or SEQ ID NO: 99, i.e., an amino acid is considered a substitution for an amino acid at its corresponding position in the EU numbering scheme or SEQ ID NO: 99.

[0286] As described above, the set of residues in the CH3 domain that can be modified is numbered herein with reference to the EU numbering scheme or Sequence ID No. 99. Any CH3 domain, e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, or IgG4 CH3 domain, may have modifications, e.g., amino acid substitutions, in one or more sets of residues corresponding to residues at recognized positions in the EU numbering scheme or Sequence ID No. 99. The respective positions in the IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4 sequences corresponding to any given position in the EU numbering scheme or Sequence ID No. 99 can be easily determined.

[0287] Those skilled in the art will understand that other immunoglobulin isotypes, such as the CH3 domains of IgM, IgA, IgE, and IgD, can be similarly modified by identifying the amino acids in their domains that correspond to the amino acid positions described herein. Modifications can also be made to corresponding domains from immunoglobulins of other species, such as non-human primates, monkeys, mice, rats, rabbits, dogs, pigs, and chickens.

[0288] In one embodiment, a modified CH3 domain polypeptide that specifically binds to TfR binds to the apical domain of TfR via an epitope containing position 208 of the full-length human TfR sequence (SEQ ID NO: 102), which corresponds to position 11 of the human TfR apical domain sequence defined in SEQ ID NO: 103. SEQ ID NO: 103 corresponds to amino acids 198-378 of the human TfR-1 single protein sequence P02786 (SEQ ID NO: 102). In some embodiments, the modified CH3 domain polypeptide binds to the apical domain of TfR via an epitope containing positions 158, 188, 199, 207, 208, 209, 210, 211, 212, 213, 214, 215, and / or 294 of the full-length human TfR sequence (SEQ ID NO: 102). The modified CH3 domain polypeptide can bind to TfR without blocking or otherwise inhibiting the binding of transferrin to the receptor. In some embodiments, the binding of transferrin to TfR is substantially uninhibited. In some embodiments, the binding of transferrin to TfR is inhibited by less than about 50% (e.g., less than about 45%, less than about 40%, less than about 35%, less than about 30%, less than about 25%, less than about 20%, less than about 15%, less than about 10%, or less than about 5%). In some embodiments, the binding of transferrin to TfR is inhibited by less than about 20% (e.g., less than about 19%, less than about 18%, less than about 17%, less than about 16%, less than about 15%, less than about 14%, less than about 13%, less than about 12%, less than about 11%, less than 10%, less than about 9%, less than about 8%, less than about 7%, less than about 6%, less than about 5%, less than about 4%, less than about 3%, less than about 2%, or less than 1%). Exemplary CH3 domain polypeptides exhibiting this binding specificity include polypeptides having amino acid substitutions at positions 380, 384, 386, 387, 388, 389, 390, 413, 415, 416, and 421, according to the EU numbering scheme.

[0297] FcRn binding site Polypeptides described herein that can be transported across the BBB may additionally include an FcRn binding site. In some embodiments, the FcRn binding site is located within a modified Fc polypeptide or a fragment thereof.

[0298] In some embodiments, the FcRn binding site includes a native FcRn binding site. In some embodiments, the FcRn binding site does not involve amino acid changes to the amino acid sequence of the native FcRn binding site. In some embodiments, the native FcRn binding site is an IgG binding site, for example, a human IgG binding site. In some embodiments, the FcRn binding site includes modifications that alter the FcRn binding.

[0299] In some embodiments, the FcRn binding site has one or more mutated, e.g., substituted amino acid residues, and the mutation(s) either increase or substantially reduce the serum half-life (i.e., reduce the serum half-life by 25% or less when assayed under identical conditions compared to a protein equivalent with wild-type residues at the mutated positions). In some embodiments, the FcRn binding site has one or more substituted amino acid residues at positions 21-26, 198, and 203-206, the positions of which are determined by reference to SEQ ID NO: 99.

[0301] V. Mutations that reduce effector function or FCΓR binding The Fc polypeptides provided herein (e.g., modified to bind to TfR and initiate transport across the BBB) may also include additional mutations to reduce effector function. As described herein, by introducing both TfR binding sites and mutations that reduce TfR-mediated FcγR binding of the Fc polypeptide dimer to the same Fc polypeptide, it was possible to reduce effector function upon TfR binding and bring about TfR binding without substantial reduction in reticulocytes, while still maintaining and exhibiting levels of effector function (e.g., ADCC or CDC) when the Fc polypeptide dimer fuses to therapeutic Fab and binds to the target antigen of Fab.

[0302] In some embodiments, Fc polypeptides containing a modified CH3 domain possess effector function, i.e., the ability to induce a specific biological function upon binding to an Fc receptor expressed on effector cells that mediate effector function. Effector cells include, but are not limited to, monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, dendritic cells, eosinophils, mast cells, platelets, B cells, large granule lymphocytes, Langerhans cells, natural killer (NK) cells, and cytotoxic T cells.

[0303] Examples of effector functions include, but are not limited to, C1q binding and CDC, Fc receptor binding, ADCC, antibody-dependent cell-mediated phagocytosis (ADCP), downregulation of cell surface receptors (e.g., B cell receptors), and B cell activation. Effector functions can vary depending on the antibody class. For example, native human IgG1 and IgG3 antibodies can induce ADCC and CDC activity upon binding to appropriate Fc receptors present on immune system cells, while native human IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4 can induce ADCP function upon binding to appropriate Fc receptors present on immune cells.

[0304] In some embodiments, the Fc polypeptides having TfR binding sites described herein may include additional modifications that reduce effector function, i.e., reduce effector function upon TfR binding. Having reduced effector function of the Fc polypeptide dimer upon TfR binding is desirable because it leads to reduced reticulocyte reduction, as reticulocytes also have TfR on their cell surface. As described in detail herein, Fc polypeptide dimers in a cis configuration, i.e., Fc polypeptide dimers having both a TfR binding site and mutations that reduce effector function on the same Fc polypeptide as the Fc polypeptide dimer, exhibit TfR binding without substantial reticulocyte reduction, yet still maintain a level of effector function (e.g., ADCC) when the Fc polypeptide dimer fuses to therapeutic Fab and binds to the Fab's target antigen. Having effector function when the Fc polypeptide dimer fuses to therapeutic Fab that binds to the Fab's target antigen is desirable, for example, in cancer therapy (e.g., brain cancer therapy).

[0305] Exemplary Fc polypeptide mutations that modulate effector function include, but are not limited to, substitutions in the CH2 domain at positions corresponding to, for example, positions 4 and 5 of SEQ ID NO: 99 (positions 234 and 235 according to the EU numbering scheme). In some embodiments, substitutions in the modified CH2 domain include Ala at positions 4 and 5 of SEQ ID NO: 99. In some embodiments, substitutions in the modified CH2 domain include Ala at positions 4 and 5 of SEQ ID NO: 99 and Gly at position 99 of SEQ ID NO: 99.

[0306] Additional Fc polypeptide mutations that modulate effector function include, but are not limited to, one or more substitutions at positions 238, 265, 269, 270, 297, 327, and 329 (corresponding to positions 8, 35, 39, 40, 67, 97, and 99, numbered with reference to SEQ ID NO: 99, in the EU numbering scheme). Exemplary substitutions (as numbered in the EU numbering scheme) include, a mutation in which position 329 is replaced by a glycine or arginine or amino acid residue of sufficient size to disrupt the Fc / Fcγ receptor interface formed between proline 329 of Fc and the tryptophan residues Trp 87 and Trp 110 of FcγRIII. Additional exemplary substitutions include S228P, E233P, L235E, N297A, N297D, and P331S. Multiple substitutions, such as L234A and L235A in the human IgG1 Fc region; L234A, L235A, and P329G in the human IgG1 Fc region; S228P and L235E in the human IgG4 Fc region; L234A and G237A in the human IgG1 Fc region; L234A, L235A, and G237A in the human IgG1 Fc region; V234A and G237A in the human IgG2 Fc region; L235A, G237A, and E318A in the human IgG4 Fc region; and S228P and L236E in the human IgG4 Fc region may also be present. In some embodiments, the Fc polypeptide may have one or more amino acid substitutions modulating ADCC, for example, substitutions at positions 298, 333, and / or 334 in the Fc region according to the EU numbering scheme.

[0307] In some embodiments, the polypeptides described herein may have one or more amino acid substitutions that increase or decrease ADCC, or may have mutations that alter C1q linkage and / or CDC.

[0308] In certain embodiments, Fc polypeptides having a TfR binding site may be modified to reduce effector function, i.e., to reduce FcγR binding. In some embodiments, Fc polypeptides having a TfR binding site may include mutations L234A and L235A (corresponding to positions 4 and 5 numbered with reference to SEQ ID NO: 99 in the EU numbering scheme). In other embodiments, Fc polypeptides having a TfR binding site may include mutations L234A, L235A, and P329G (corresponding to positions 4, 5, and 99 numbered with reference to SEQ ID NO: 99 in the EU numbering scheme).

[0309] VI. Measure effector function or FcγR binding. Methods for analyzing the binding affinity, binding kinetics, and cross-reactivity between Fc polypeptides or Fc polypeptide dimers and FcγR are known in the art. These methods include, but are not limited to, solid-phase binding assays (e.g., ELISA assays), immunoprecipitation, surface plasmon resonance (e.g., Biacore® (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ)), binding equilibrium exclusion (e.g., KinExA®), flow cytometry, fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), BioLayer interferometry (e.g., Octet® (ForteBio, Inc., Menlo Park, CA)), and Western blot analysis. In some embodiments, ELISA is used to determine binding affinity and / or cross-reactivity. Methods for performing ELISA assays are known in the art. In some embodiments, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is used to determine binding affinity, binding kinetics, and / or cross-reactivity. In some embodiments, binding equilibrium exclusion is used to determine binding affinity, binding kinetics, and / or cross-reactivity. In some embodiments, BioLayer interference assays are used to determine binding affinity, binding kinetics, and / or cross-reactivity.

[0310] ADCC is a type of immune response in which an antibody binds to an antigen on the surface of a pathogenic or tumorigenic target cell and identifies the antibody for destruction by effector cells, such as peripheral blood mononuclear cells (e.g., natural killer (NK) cells, T cells, and B cells). Effector cells with FcγR recognize and bind to the Fc region of the antibody bound to the target cell. Thus, the antibody confers specificity to the death of the target cell. CDC is initiated when C1q, the initiating component of the classical complement pathway, binds to the Fc region of the target-binding antibody. ADCC and CDC activity can be determined in standard in vivo or in vitro assays of cell death. Methods for determining ADCC and CDC activity are available in the art. In some embodiments, the method is: 51 This may involve labeling target cells with radioactive materials such as Cr, or fluorescent dyes such as calcein AM. Labeled cells can be incubated with antibodies and effector cells, and the death of target cells by ADCC or CDC can be detected by the emission of radioactivity or fluorescence.

[0311] Other assays for measuring ADCC and CDC activity include, for example, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release assays. When the cell membrane is damaged or injured in any way, LDH, a soluble yet stable enzyme in the cytoplasm, is released into the surrounding extracellular space. The presence of this enzyme in the culture medium can be used as a cell death marker. The relative amounts of viable and dead cells in the medium can then be quantified by measuring the amount of released LDH using a colorimetric or fluorescence-quantified LDH cytotoxicity assay.

[0312] VII. Additional mutations in the FC region containing the modified CH3 domain polypeptide. The Fc polypeptides provided herein (e.g., modified to bind to TfR and initiate transport across the BBB) may also include additional mutations that, for example, increase serum stability or serum half-life, modulate effector function, affect glycosylation, reduce human immunogenicity, and / or provide knob and whole heterodimerization of the Fc polypeptide.

[0313] In some embodiments, the modified Fc polypeptides described herein have at least about 75%, 76%, 77%, 78%, 79%, 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% amino acid sequence identity to the corresponding wild-type Fc polypeptide (e.g., human IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, or IgG4 Fc polypeptide).

[0314] The modified Fc polypeptides described herein may also have other mutations introduced outside of a particular set of amino acids to, for example, affect glycosylation, increase serum half-life, or, with respect to the CH3 domain, provide knob and hole heterodimerization of polypeptides containing the modified CH3 domain. Generally, the method involves introducing a protrusion ("knob") at the interface of a first polypeptide and a corresponding recess ("hole") at the interface of a second polypeptide, such that the protrusion can be positioned in a recess to promote heterodimerization and prevent homodimerization. The protrusion is constructed by replacing a small amino acid side chain from the interface of the first polypeptide with a larger side chain (e.g., tyrosine or tryptophan). A complementary recess of the same or similar size to the protrusion is created at the interface of the second polypeptide by replacing a larger amino acid side chain with a smaller one (e.g., alanine or threonine). Such additional mutations are located in a polypeptide at a position that does not adversely affect the binding of the modified CH3 domain to TfR.

[0315] In one exemplary embodiment of the knob and whole approach for dimerization, the position corresponding to position 136 of SEQ ID NO: 99 of the first Fc polypeptide subunit to be dimerized has tryptophan instead of natural threonine, and the second Fc polypeptide subunit of the dimer has valine instead of natural tyrosine at the position corresponding to position 177 of SEQ ID NO: 99. The second subunit of the Fc polypeptide may further include substitutions in which natural threonine at the position corresponding to position 136 of SEQ ID NO: 99 is substituted with serine, and natural leucine at the position corresponding to position 138 of SEQ ID NO: 99 is substituted with alanine.

[0316] The modified Fc polypeptides described herein may also be manipulated to include other modifications for heterodimerization, such as electrostatic manipulation of contact residues within the naturally charged CH3-CH3 interface, or hydrophobic patch modifications.

[0317] In some embodiments, modifications to enhance the serum half-life may be introduced. For example, in some embodiments, the modified Fc polypeptide described herein includes a CH2 domain containing Tyr at position 22 of SEQ ID NO: 99, Thr at position 24 of SEQ ID NO: 99, and Glu at position 26 of SEQ ID NO: 99. Alternatively, the modified Fc polypeptide described herein may include M198L and N204S substitutions numbered with reference to SEQ ID NO: 99. Alternatively, the modified Fc polypeptide described herein may include N204S or N204A substitutions numbered with reference to SEQ ID NO: 99.
