Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the biomedical field, and specifically to anti-PDL1 antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof, and uses. [Background technology]
[0002] Globally, cancer is a serious disease that threatens the life and health of humankind, and its incidence rate is increasing year by year due to the worsening of environmental pollution. At the same time, multiple cancer treatment methods have been developed, including traditional surgical resection, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and new targeted therapies, including small molecule targeted drug therapy, macromolecular targeted drug therapy, immune checkpoint therapy, bispecific antibody therapy, and cell and gene therapy.
[0003] In recent years, immune checkpoint antibodies and bispecific antibodies have been the most promising therapeutic approaches. With the approval of CTLA4, PD-1 / L1, and LAG3 antibodies, immune checkpoint antibodies have become a trend in recent years, achieving remarkable therapeutic effects in a variety of cancer types, including melanoma and non-small cell lung cancer. The approval process for bispecific antibodies has also accelerated significantly. To date, approvals have included Eemovab (CD3×EPCAM), CD3×CD19 (Blincyto), Rybrevant (EGFR×cMet), Lunsumio (CD3×CD20), and Tecvayli (CD3×BCMA). Rybrevant (EGFR×cMet), Lunsumio (CD3×CD20), and Tecvayli (CD3×BCMA) were approved last year and this year, demonstrating the potential of these innovative drugs to treat a greater number of patients.
[0004] Radiation therapy and chemotherapy generally involve strong side effects and suppress the patient's immune system, which can lead to tumor recurrence. Unlike traditional radiation therapy and chemotherapy, which rely on cytotoxic effects, immune checkpoint therapy and bispecific antibody drugs rely on the patient's own immune system to fight cancer, resulting in relatively minimal side effects and not suppressing the patient's immune system.
[0005] PDL1 expression is significantly elevated in many tumors. By binding to the PD-1 receptor on the surface of T cells, it transmits immunosuppressive signals, promoting T cell exhaustion and reducing the patient's anti-cancer immune function. Using antibodies to block the interaction between PD-1 and PDL1 can reverse T cell immune exhaustion and restore anti-cancer function. To date, PD-1 antibodies such as Opdivo and Keytruda, and PDL1 antibodies such as Tecentirq (Atezolizumab), have benefited a significant number of patients. However, not all patients respond to PD-1 / L1 monoclonal antibody therapy, with an overall efficacy rate of around 30%, meaning many more patients are unable to benefit from it.
[0006] The extracellular portion of the PD-1 receptor and its mutants are limited by the diversity of glycosylation modifications, making them unsuitable for drug discovery. Although there are currently reports of PDL1 antibodies and related products, there is a problem in that they do not have sufficient binding ability to PDL1 on the surface of tumor cells.
[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop anti-PDL1 antibodies with higher affinity to PDL1. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0071] To make this disclosure more readily understandable, certain technical and scientific terms are defined below. Unless otherwise expressly defined herein, all other technical and scientific terms used herein have the meaning commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art. Abbreviations for amino acid residues refer to the standard three-letter and / or one-letter codes used in the art to denote one of the 20 commonly used L-amino acids.
[0072] As used herein, the terms "comprises" or "including" are open-ended expressions, i.e., include the content set forth in the present disclosure but do not exclude the content of other embodiments.
[0073] As used herein, the terms "optionally," "optional," or "optional" generally mean that a described event or circumstance may occur, but does not necessarily occur, and the description includes instances where the event or circumstance occurs and instances where the event or circumstance does not occur.
[0074] The antibodies or antigen-binding fragments described herein are typically prepared by biosynthesis. Based on the nucleotide sequences described herein, those skilled in the art can conveniently prepare the encoding nucleic acids of the present disclosure using various known methods. These methods include, but are not limited to, PCR and artificial DNA synthesis. For specific methods, see J. Sambrook, "A Laboratory Guide to Molecular Cloning." In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the encoding nucleic acid sequences of the present disclosure are constructed by segmented synthesis of nucleotide sequences followed by overlap extension PCR. The antibodies or antigen fragments are numbered according to the Kabat numbering system. As used herein, the term "antibody" refers to an immune globular protein molecule capable of binding to a specific antigen. It comprises two light chains and two heavy chains, with the heavy chains (H chains) and light chains (L chains) connected by disulfide bonds to form a tetrameric molecule. The amino acid sequence of the amino terminus (N-terminus) of the peptide chain is highly variable and called the variable region (V region), while the carboxyl terminus (C-terminus) is relatively stable and less variable and called the constant region (C region). The V regions of the L chain and H chain are called VL and VH, respectively. Some regions within the variable region have a higher degree of variation in amino acid composition and sequence order, and are called hypervariable regions (HVRs). Because these are the sites where antigens and antibodies bind, they are also called complementarity-determining regions (CDRs). Both the heavy chain variable region and the light chain variable region contain three CDR regions.
[0075] The antibodies of the present disclosure include mouse-derived antibodies, chimeric antibodies, and humanized antibodies, and preferably humanized antibodies.
[0076] The term "mouse-derived antibody" in this disclosure refers to a monoclonal antibody against human B7H6 prepared according to the knowledge and skill of the art. During preparation, a test subject is injected with an antigen, and then hybridomas expressing antibodies with the desired sequence or functional characteristics are isolated. In a preferred embodiment of this disclosure, the mouse-derived B7H6 antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof may further comprise a light chain constant region of a mouse-derived kappa or lambda chain or a variant thereof, or a heavy chain constant region of a mouse-derived IgG1, IgG2, or IgG3 chain or a variant thereof.
[0077] As used herein, the term "antigen-binding fragment" refers to an "antibody fragment," and an antibody fragment generally refers to an antigen-binding antibody fragment, which may include a portion of an intact antibody, generally the antigen-binding region or variable region. Examples of antibody fragments include Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, Fv or scFv, diabodies, linear antibodies, single-chain antibody molecules, etc.
[0078] As used herein, the term "monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody having a single antigen-binding site.
[0079] As used herein, the term "double antibody" refers to an antibody that has two different antigen-binding sites.
[0080] As used herein, the term "mutant" or "variant" refers to a molecule obtained by making a mutation involving one or more nucleotides or amino acids to a naturally occurring or engineered molecule.

Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD. (1991)), and / or "high-variability loops" (e.g., amino acid residues 26-32 (LI), 50-52 (L2), and 91-96 (L3) in the light chain variable region, and amino acid residues 26-32 (H1), 53-55 (H2), and 96-101 (H3) in the heavy chain variable region (Chothia and Lesk J. Mol. Biol. 196:901-917 (1987))
[0082] As used herein, the term "functional fragment" refers in particular to antibody fragments or diabodies, such as Fv, scFv (sc referring to single chain), Fab, F(ab')2, Fab', scFv-Fc fragments, or any fragment whose half-life can be extended by chemical modification or liposome encapsulation, said chemical modification being the addition of a poly(alkylene) glycol, such as polyethylene glycol ("pegylated, PEGylation") (referred to as pegylated fragments of Fv-PEG, scFv-PEG, Fab-PEG, F(ab')2-PEG or Fab'-PEG), where "PEG" is polyethylene glycol.
[0083] As used herein, the term "chimeric antibody" refers to a recombinant antibody obtained by using recombinant DNA technology to replace the amino acid sequence of the constant region of a monoclonal antibody derived from one species (e.g., mouse) with the constant region of an antibody derived from another species (e.g., human).
[0084] As used herein, the term "humanized antibody" refers to a recombinant antibody obtained by using recombinant DNA technology to replace all of the amino acid sequences of the constant and variable regions non-CDR (Fv framework region (FR)) of a monoclonal antibody derived from one species (e.g., mouse) with the amino acid sequences of the constant and variable regions non-CDR of an antibody derived from another species (e.g., human). In other words, an antibody in which the constant region has been humanized is called a chimeric antibody, and an antibody in which all of the non-CDR amino acid sequences of the constant and variable regions have been humanized is called a humanized antibody.
[0085] As used herein, the term "full antibody" refers to a tetrameric structure consisting of two identical light chains and two identical heavy chains connected by interchain disulfide bonds. Examples include immunosphere protein G (IgG), immunosphere protein A (IgA), immunosphere protein M (IgM), immunosphere protein D (IgD), and immunosphere protein E (IgE). The same immunosphere protein can also be classified into different subclasses, such as IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4, based on amino acid composition. The light chains of immunosphere proteins are classified into κ chains and λ chains depending on the constant region.
[0086] As used herein, the term "knob-into-hole structure" refers to a knob-into-hole mutation formed in the CH3 region of an antibody heavy chain constant region, which facilitates heavy chain interdigitation to form heterodimers.
[0087] As used herein, the term "identity," when describing an amino acid sequence or a nucleic acid sequence relative to a reference sequence, refers to the percentage of identical amino acids or nucleotides between two amino acid or nucleic acid sequences determined by conventional methods, such as those described in Ausubel et al., eds. (1995), Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, Chapter 19 (Greene Publishing and Wiley-Interscience, New York), and the ALIGN program (Dayhoff (1978), Atlas of Protein Sequence and Structure 5:Suppl. 3 (National Biomedical Research Institute)). Foundation, Washington, DC). Many algorithms exist for aligning sequences and measuring sequence identity, including the homology alignment algorithm of Needleman et al. (1970) J. Mol. Biol. 48:443, the local homology algorithm of Smith et al. (1981) Adv. Appl. Math. 2:482; the similarity search method of Pearson et al. (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad.

[0099] In the process of preparing or obtaining these antibodies, nucleic acid molecules that express these antibodies are utilized, connected to different vectors, and then expressed in different cells to obtain the corresponding antibodies.
[0100] Therefore, the present disclosure further provides an isolated nucleic acid encoding the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof, as well as a recombinant vector and a transformant containing the nucleic acid. The nucleic acid molecule encodes the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof described above, and preferably, the nucleic acid is an expression cassette obtained by genetic engineering means.
[0101] The recombinant vector may refer to a cloning vector or an expression vector, which is obtained by operably linking the nucleic acid to a commercially available vector (e.g., a plasmid or viral vector); commonly used plasmids include pSeTag2, PEE14, pMH3, etc.

[0103] The present disclosure further provides an expression vector, which comprises the isolated nucleic acid molecule. When the isolated polynucleotide is connected to a vector, the polynucleotide can be directly or indirectly connected to control elements on the vector, as long as these control elements are capable of controlling the translation and expression of the polynucleotide. Of course, these control elements may be derived directly from the vector itself or may be exogenous, i.e., not necessarily derived from the vector itself. Of course, the polynucleotide only needs to be operably connected to the control elements. As used herein, "operably connected" refers to connecting an exogenous gene to a vector so that the control elements within the vector, such as transcriptional control sequences and translational control sequences, can function to regulate the transcription and translation of the exogenous gene. Of course, the polynucleotides encoding the heavy and light chains of an antibody can be inserted independently into different vectors, but are generally inserted into the same vector. Commonly used vectors include plasmids, bacteriophages, and the like.
[0104] The present disclosure further provides recombinant cells containing the expression vector. The expression vector can be introduced into mammalian cells to construct recombinant cells, which can then be used to express the antibodies or antigen-binding fragments provided herein.

The prokaryotic host cells can be Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Streptomyces, or Proteus mirabilis. The eukaryotic host cells can be fungi such as Pichia pastoris, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, or Trichoderma; insect cells such as grass rotifers; plant cells such as tobacco; or mammalian cells such as BHK cells, CHO cells, COS cells, or myeloma cells.

[0118] Example 1 Preparation of antibodies
[0119] A mouse-derived monoclonal antibody against human PDL1 was generated, and purified recombinant PDL1 extracellular domain Strep tag fusion protein (PDL1-strep) was used as an antigen to immunize C57BL / 6 mice (9 weeks old, purchased from Shanghai Resc, weighing approximately 20 g).
[0120] Mice were immunized three times with purified antigen and complete Freund's adjuvant, and immune responses were detected after blood collection from the tail vein. Sera were screened by ELISA and flow cytometry to obtain mice with anti-human PDL1 immunoglobulin protein. Splenocytes were collected from mice with the highest anti-PDL1 immunoglobulin protein levels and fused with mouse myeloma cells SP2 / 0 (ATCC No. CRL-1581). Antibody screening was performed on the fused hybridoma cells to obtain mouse monoclonal antibodies.
[0121] A total of 10 candidate hybridoma cells 6 The cells were cultured until they reached 100 cells, and then centrifuged at 800 rpm for 10 minutes to harvest the cells. Total RNA was extracted using a Trizol kit (Invitrogen). A cDNA library (Invitrogen) was synthesized by reverse transcription using the total RNA as a template. The cDNA was then used as a template for PCR amplification of the variable region nucleic acid sequences corresponding to the hybridoma cells. Primer sequences used in the PCR amplification reaction were complementary to the first framework region or signal peptide region and constant region of the antibody variable region (Larrick, JW, et al., (1990) Scand. J. Immunol., 32, 121-128; Coloma, JJ, et al., (1991) BioTechniques, 11, 152-156). To a 50 μL reaction mixture, 2 μl of cDNA, 5 μl of 10× PCR buffer, 2 μl (5 μmol) of upstream and downstream primers, 2 μl of dNTPs, 1 μl of Taq enzyme (Takara, Ex Taq), and 38 μl of HO were added. The initial denaturation was performed at 95°C for 5 minutes, followed by temperature cycling and PCR amplification. The reaction conditions were: 30 seconds of denaturation at 94°C, 45 seconds of annealing at 58°C, and 50 seconds of extension at 72°C (for a total of 32 cycles), followed by 7 minutes of extension at 72°C. The sequences of the heavy and light chain variable regions of the mouse monoclonal antibody were obtained by sequencing the amplified products.

[0125] The day before transfection, ExpiCHO-S cells were cultured at a cell density of (3–4) × 10 6 The solution was adjusted to a concentration of 7 × 10 cells / mL and cultured overnight at 37°C, 8% CO2, and 95 rpm with shaking. 6 ~1×10 7 Grow cells to 6 × 10 / mL and prepare for transfection when viability is greater than 95%. Discard cells using fresh, prewarmed ExpiCHO medium (Gibco, item A2910002). 6The pcDNA3.4 plasmids carrying the heavy and light chains were diluted to 1 mL / mL and transfected into ExpiCHO-S cells with the above heavy and light chain plasmids (1:1 light-heavy chain plasmid ratio) and ExpiFectamine CHO Transfection Reagent (Gibco, Item A29129). The cells were then cultured at 37°C, 8% CO2, and 95 rpm with shaking. 18-22 h after transfection, ExpiFectamine CHO Enhancer and ExpiCHO Feed were mixed uniformly and immediately added to the transfected cells. The mixture was then cultured at 32°C, 5% CO2, and 95 rpm with shaking. Five days after transfection, 8 mL of ExpiCHO Feed was added to the cells, mixed uniformly, and the culture was continued. Cell count and viability were monitored daily. Cells were harvested by centrifugation when cell viability fell below 80% or after 10-14 days of culture. The expression supernatant was filtered through a 0.45 μm filter, and the Fc domain-containing antibody was captured from the expression supernatant using a Mabselect prism Aprotein A affinity chromatography column (purchased from Suzhou Nawei). After equilibrating the chromatography column with phosphate buffer at pH 7.2, the supernatant was passed through the affinity chromatography column and eluted with elution buffer (100 mM citric acid, pH 2.7). Finally, the column was concentrated and replaced with PBS buffer. The purified antibody was identified as having a purity of over 95% by SDS-PAGE, and the results showed that the above antibody was finally obtained.
[0126] Human PDL1-Fc fusion protein (purchased from Acro) or monkey PDL1-His tag protein (purchased from Acro) was diluted to 1 μg / ml in PBS buffer and added to a 96-well plate at a volume of 100 μL per well and incubated overnight at 4°C. The PBS buffer was removed from the 96-well plate, and the plate was washed six times with PBST (pH 7.2, 0.1% Tween 20). 200 μL of PBS / 10% BSA was added per well and incubated at 37°C for 2 hours for blocking. The blocking solution was removed, and the plate was washed six times with PBST. 100 μL of the mouse-derived PDL1 antibody 19B8, diluted to the appropriate concentration in PBST / 0.05% BSA, was added per well and incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was removed, and the plate was washed six times with PBST. Then, 100 μL / well of HRP (horseradish peroxidase)-conjugated anti-mouse IgG secondary antibody was diluted in PBST / 0.05% BSA and incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. After washing the plate six times with PBST, 80 μL / well of TMB (tetramethylbenzidine) was added, followed by incubation at room temperature for 3 minutes. To stop the reaction, 80 μL / well of 4M sulfuric acid was added. The absorbance at 450 mm was read using a microplate reader. The results are shown in Figure 1. The PDL1 antibody of the present disclosure can bind to human and monkey PDL1 proteins.

[0128] ELISA experiments were used to detect the effect of the antibody on the binding of PDL1 to its receptor PD-1, and the specific experiments are as follows:
[0129] PDL1-Fc fusion protein (purchased from Acro) was diluted to 5 μg / mL in PBS buffer and added to a 96-well plate at a volume of 100 μL per well and incubated overnight at 4°C. The PBS buffer was removed from the 96-well plate, and the plate was washed six times with PBST (pH 7.2, 0.1% Tween 20). 200 μL of PBS / 10% BSA was added per well and incubated at 37°C for 2 hours for blocking. After removing the blocking solution and washing the plate six times with PBST, 19B8 antibody diluted to different concentrations in PBST / 0.05% BSA or PD-1-Avi tag (purchased from Acro) diluted to 2 μg / mL was added at 100 μL per well and incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. After removing the reaction mixture and washing the plate six times with PBST, 100 μL / well of HRP (horseradish peroxidase)-conjugated streptavidin secondary antibody (purchased from Southern Biotech) was diluted in PBST / 0.05% BSA and incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. After washing the plate six times with PBST, 80 μL / well of TMB (tetramethylbenzidine) was added and incubated at room temperature for 3 minutes. 80 μL / well of 4M sulfuric acid was added to stop the reaction. mIgG (purchased from Biolegend) was used as a control. The absorbance was read at 450 mm using a microplate reader. The results are shown in Figure 2, demonstrating that the mouse-derived PDL1 antibody (19B8) disclosed herein can inhibit the binding of PDL1 to its receptor PD-1.
[0130] Example 4: Flow cerebrospinal fluid binding experiments of mouse-derived PDL1 antibodies
[0131] 1 x 10 human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells in PBS 6The cells were diluted to 1 mL / mL and added to 1.5 mL EP tubes at a volume of 100 μL per tube. 10 μL of goat serum was added per tube and blocked at 4°C for 30 minutes. Different concentrations of 19B8 antibody (heavy chain amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:10, light chain amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:11) were added and incubated at 4°C for 30 minutes. 1 mL of PBS was added to the EP tubes, and the cells were centrifuged at 3500 rpm for 5 minutes at 4°C. The supernatant was completely removed, and the cells were washed once with PBS. After centrifugation, the supernatant was completely removed, and the cells were resuspended in 100 μL per tube of PBS. 1 μL of Alexa-647-labeled goat anti-mouse secondary antibody (Biolegend) was added per tube and incubated at 4°C for 30 minutes in the dark. The cells were washed twice with PBS, centrifuged, and the supernatant was completely removed. The cells were resuspended in 200 μL / tube of PBS and detected by a flow cytometer, and the results are shown in FIG. 3, which further demonstrates that the mouse-derived PDL1 antibody according to the present disclosure can bind to PDL1 on the surface of tumor cells.

On the day of transfection, the cells were cultured at a concentration of 7 × 10 6 ~1×10 7 Grow cells to 6 × 10 / mL and prepare for transfection when viability is greater than 95%. Discard cells using fresh, prewarmed ExpiCHO medium (Gibco, item A2910002). 6 The pcDNA3.4 plasmids carrying the heavy and light chains were diluted to 1 mL / mL and transfected into ExpiCHO-S cells with the above heavy and light chain plasmids (1:1 light-heavy chain plasmid ratio) and ExpiFectamine CHO Transfection Reagent (Gibco, Item A29129). The cells were then cultured at 37°C, 8% CO2, and 95 rpm with shaking. 18-22 h after transfection, ExpiFectamine CHO Enhancer and ExpiCHO Feed were mixed uniformly and immediately added to the transfected cells. The mixture was then cultured at 32°C, 5% CO2, and 95 rpm with shaking. Five days after transfection, 8 mL of ExpiCHO Feed was added to the cells, mixed uniformly, and the culture was continued. Cell count and viability were monitored daily. Cells were harvested by centrifugation when cell viability fell below 80% or after 10-14 days of culture. The expression supernatant was filtered through a 0.45 μm filter, and the Fc domain-containing antibody was captured from the expression supernatant using a Mabselect prism Aprotein A affinity chromatography column (purchased from Suzhou Nawei). After equilibrating the chromatography column with phosphate buffer at pH 7.2, the supernatant was passed through the affinity chromatography column and eluted with elution buffer (100 mM citric acid, pH 2.7). Finally, the column was concentrated and replaced with PBS buffer. The purified antibody was identified as having a purity of over 95% by SDS-PAGE, and the results showed that the above antibody was finally obtained.
[0136] Human PDL1-Fc fusion protein (purchased from Acro) or monkey PDL1-His tag fusion protein (purchased from Acro) was diluted to 1 μg / ml in PBS buffer and added to a 96-well plate at a volume of 100 μL per well and incubated overnight at 4°C. The PBS buffer was removed from the 96-well plate, and the plate was washed six times with PBST (pH 7.2, 0.1% Tween 20). 200 μL of PBS / 10% BSA was added per well and incubated at 37°C for 2 hours for blocking. The blocking solution was removed, and the plate was washed six times with PBST. The test chimeric antibody 19B8-hIgGLALA or the control antibody 12A4-hIgG1LALA, diluted to the appropriate concentration in PBST / 0.05% BSA, was added at 100 μL per well and incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was removed, and the plate was washed six times with PBST. Then, 100 μL / well of HRP (horseradish peroxidase)-conjugated anti-human IgG-Fab secondary antibody was diluted in PBST / 0.05% BSA and incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. After washing the plate six times with PBST, 80 μL / well of TMB (tetramethylbenzidine) was added, followed by incubation at room temperature for 3 minutes. To stop the reaction, 80 μL / well of 4M sulfuric acid was added. The absorbance was read at 450 mm using a microplate reader. The results are shown in Figure 4, demonstrating that the chimeric antibody 19B8-hIgG1LALA of the present disclosure binds to both human and monkey PDL1 proteins.
