[0003] FIELD OF THE INVENTION Compositions and methods for formulating pharmaceutical compositions comprising bispecific GPRC5D / CD3 antibodies are disclosed. [Background technology]
[0004] Multiple myeloma (MM) is a cancer of plasma cells. Mechanistically, multiple myeloma is characterized by the production of a monoclonal protein (M protein) composed of pathological immunoglobulins or their fragments, which have lost their function. The proliferation of multiple myeloma cells leads to their subsequent migration from the normal bone marrow niche, while overproduction of M protein causes characteristic osteolytic lesions, increased susceptibility to infection, hypercalcemia, renal insufficiency or failure, and neurological complications.
[0005] Treatment options for multiple myeloma have improved over time and vary depending on the aggressiveness of the disease, underlying prognostic factors, the patient's health status, and pre-existing comorbidities. Treatment options include proteasome inhibitors (PIs), immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), and stem cell transplantation.
[0006] Despite these treatment outcomes, the disease recurs and is associated with additional risk factors (e.g., comorbidities or aging), thus justifying the need for novel treatment approaches, such as new dosages and treatment regimens. Particularly in the elderly population, where stem cell transplantation is often not a viable option, and in patients with refractory disease who have exhausted all available therapies, multiple myeloma remains an incurable malignancy and an unmet medical need with significant morbidity and mortality.
[0007] T cell redirection killing is a desired mode of action in many treatment areas. Generally, T cell redirection molecules are engineered to have at least two antigen binding sites, one site binding to a surface antigen on target cells and the other site binding to a T cell surface antigen. There remains a need in the art for pharmaceutical compositions comprising such antibodies for the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma, including compositions that are stable for long periods within a certain temperature range.

[0024] The compositions and methods of the present disclosure may be understood more readily by reference to the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this disclosure: It is to be understood that the disclosed compositions and methods are not limited to the specific compositions and methods described and / or illustrated herein, and that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments, by way of example only, and is not intended to limit the claimed compositions and methods.
[0025] Unless otherwise stated, any description of possible mechanisms or modes of operation or reasons for improvement is intended to be illustrative only, and the compositions and methods of the present disclosure are not limited by the merits or demerits of any such proposed mechanisms or modes of operation or reasons for improvement.
[0026] When a range of numerical values is recited or established herein, the range includes its endpoints and all individual integers and fractions within the range, and also includes each of the narrower ranges formed by all the various possible combinations of these endpoints and internal integers and fractions, each of which forms a subgroup of the larger group of values within the recited range, as if it were explicitly recited. When a range of numerical values is recited herein as being higher than the recited value, the range is nevertheless finite, with its upper limit defined by a value operable within the context of the invention described herein. When a range of numerical values is recited herein as being lower than the recited value, the range is nevertheless defined by a non-zero value at its lower limit. It is not intended that the scope of the invention be limited to the specific values recited when defining the range. All ranges are inclusive and combinable.
[0027] When values are expressed as approximations, by use of the antecedent "about," it will be understood that the particular value forms another embodiment. Reference to a particular numerical value is intended to include at least that particular value unless the context dictates otherwise.
[0028] It is also understood that certain features of the compositions and methods of the present disclosure, which are, for clarity, described herein in the context of separate embodiments, may also be provided in combination in a single embodiment. Conversely, various features of the compositions and methods of the present disclosure, which are, for brevity, described in the context of a single embodiment, may also be provided separately or in any subcombination.
[0029] As used herein, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" are intended to include plurals.
[0030] Various terms relating to aspects of the present specification are used throughout the specification and claims. Unless otherwise indicated, such terms shall be given their ordinary meaning in the art. Other specifically defined terms shall be construed in a manner consistent with the definition provided herein.
[0031] As used herein, "about," when used in connection with a numerical range, cutoff, or specific value, indicates that the recited value may vary by up to 10% from the recited value. Because many of the numerical values used herein are determined experimentally, those skilled in the art will understand that such determinations may, and often will, vary between different experiments. The values used herein should not be considered unduly limited by this inherent variation. Thus, the term "about" is used to encompass a variation of ±10% or less, a variation of ±5% or less, a variation of ±1% or less, a variation of ±0.5% or less, or a variation of ±0.1% or less from the specified value.
[0032] The term "comprising" is intended to include examples encompassed by the terms "consisting essentially of" and "consisting of." Similarly, the term "consisting essentially of" is intended to include examples encompassed by the term "consisting of." Unless the context clearly dictates otherwise, throughout the specification and claims, the words "comprise," "comprising," and the like, are to be construed in an inclusive sense, i.e., "including, but not limited to," as opposed to an exclusive or exclusive sense.
[0033] The term "antibody" and similar terms are intended broadly to include immunoglobulin molecules or fragments thereof, including monoclonal antibodies (such as murine, human, human-adapted, humanized, and chimeric monoclonal antibodies), antibody fragments, bispecific or multispecific antibodies, dimeric, tetrameric, or multimeric antibodies, and single-chain antibodies.
[0034] Immunoglobulins can be assigned to five major classes, namely, IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM, depending on the amino acid sequence of the heavy chain constant domain. IgA and IgG are further subdivided into isotypes, IgA1, IgA2, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4. Antibody light chains of any vertebrate species can be assigned to one of two clearly distinct types, namely, kappa (κ) and lambda (λ), based on the amino acid sequence of their constant domain.
[0035] "Antibody fragment" refers to a portion of an immunoglobulin molecule that retains the antigen-binding properties of the parent full-length antibody. Exemplary antibody fragments are heavy chain complementarity-determining regions (HCDRs) 1, 2, and 3, light chain complementarity-determining regions (LCDRs) 1, 2, and 3, a heavy chain variable region (VH), or a light chain variable region (VL). Antibody fragments include Fab fragments, which are monovalent fragments consisting of the VL, VH, constant light chain (CL), and constant heavy chain 1 (CH1) domains; F(ab)2 fragments, which are bivalent fragments comprising two Fab fragments linked by a disulfide bridge at the hinge region; Fd fragments consisting of the VH and CH1 domains; Fv fragments consisting of the VL and VH domains of a single antibody arm; and domain antibody (dAb) fragments consisting of the VH domain. Although VH and VL domains can be engineered and linked together via synthetic linkers to form a variety of single-chain antibody designs, the VH / VL domains pair intramolecularly, or, when the VH and VL domains are expressed as separate single-chain antibody constructs, pair intermolecularly to form a monovalent antigen-binding site, such as a single-chain Fv (scFv) or diabody, as described, for example, in WO 1998 / 44001, WO 1988 / 01649, WO 1994 / 13804, and WO 1992 / 01047. These antibody fragments are obtained using techniques known to those skilled in the art, and the fragments are screened for utility in the same manner as full-length antibodies.
[0036] Antibody variable regions consist of a "framework" region interrupted by three "antigen-binding sites," which are defined using various terms: (i) the complementarity-determining regions (CDRs), three in the VH (HCDR1, HCDR2, HCDR3) and three in the VL (LCDR1, LCDR2, LCDR3), are based on sequence diversity (Wu and Kabat J Exp Med 132:211-50, 1970; Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md., 1991), and (ii) the "hypervariable regions" ("HVRs" or "HVs"), three in the VH (H1, H2, H3) and three in the VL (L1, L2, L3), are based on sequence diversity (CDRs), which ... "IMGT-CDR" refers to the region of an antibody variable domain that is hypervariable in structure, as defined by the International Association for the Advancement of Science (IAAS) of Antibody Var. 196:901-17, 1987. Other terms include "IMGT-CDR" (Lefranc et al., Dev Comparat Immunol 27:55-77, 2003) and "Specificity Determining Residue Usage" (SDRU) (Almagro Mol Recognit 17:132-43, 2004). The International ImMunoGeneTics (IMGT) database (www_imgt_org) provides standard numbering and definitions for antigen-binding sites. The correspondence between CDR, HV, and IMGT descriptive outlines is provided in Lefranc et al., Dev Comparat Immunol 27:55-77, 2003.
[0037] "Monoclonal antibody" refers to a preparation of antibody molecules of single molecular composition. A monoclonal antibody composition exhibits a single binding specificity and affinity for a particular epitope, or, in the case of bispecific monoclonal antibodies, dual binding specificities for two distinct epitopes. Thus, a monoclonal antibody refers to an antibody population in which each heavy and each light chain has a single amino acid composition, except for possible, well-known modifications such as removal of the C-terminal lysine from the antibody heavy chain. Monoclonal antibodies may have heterogeneous glycosylation within the antibody population. Monoclonal antibodies may be monospecific or multispecific, and monovalent, bivalent, or multivalent. Bispecific antibodies are encompassed within the term monoclonal antibody.
[0038] "Bispecific" refers to an antibody that specifically binds to two different antigens or two different epitopes on the same antigen. Bispecific antibodies may be cross-reactive to other related antigens, e.g., the same antigen (homologues) from other species such as humans or monkeys, e.g., cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca cynomolgus, cyno) or chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), or may bind to an epitope shared between two or more different antigens.
[0039] A "human antibody" refers to an antibody optimized to elicit a minimal immune response when administered to a human subject. The variable regions of a human antibody are derived from human immunoglobulin sequences. If a human antibody contains a constant region or a portion of a constant region, the constant region is also derived from human immunoglobulin sequences. A human antibody contains heavy and light chain variable regions "derived" from sequences of human origin when the variable regions of the human antibody are obtained from a system using human germline immunoglobulins or rearranged immunoglobulin genes. Exemplary such systems are phage-displayed human immunoglobulin gene libraries and transgenic non-human animals, such as mice or rats, carrying human immunoglobulin loci. A "human antibody" typically contains amino acid differences compared to immunoglobulins expressed in humans due to differences in the systems used to obtain human antibodies and human immunoglobulin loci, the introduction of somatic mutations or intentional substitutions into frameworks or CDRs, or both. Typically, a "human antibody" is at least about 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identical in amino acid sequence to the amino acid sequence encoded by a human germline immunoglobulin or rearranged immunoglobulin gene. Optionally, a "human antibody" can comprise a consensus framework sequence obtained from human framework sequence analysis, e.g., as described in Knappik et al., (2000) J Mol Biol 296:57-86, or a synthetic HCDR3 incorporated into a phage-displayed human immunoglobulin gene library, e.g., as described in Shi et al., (2010) J Mol Biol 397:385-96 and WO 2009 / 085462. Antibodies in which at least one CDR is derived from a non-human species are not included in the definition of "human antibody."
[0040] A "humanized antibody" refers to an antibody in which at least one CDR is derived from a non-human species and at least one framework is derived from a human immunoglobulin sequence. Humanized antibodies can contain substitutions in the framework, so that the framework may not be an exact copy of an expressed human immunoglobulin or human immunoglobulin germline gene sequence.
[0041] "Isolated" refers to a protein that has been subjected to at least one purification or isolation step, as well as to a homogenous population of molecules (e.g., a protein such as a synthetic polynucleotide or antibody) that have been substantially separated and / or purified from other components associated with the system in which the molecule is produced, such as a recombinant cell. An "isolated antibody" refers to an antibody that is substantially free of other cellular material and / or chemicals, and includes antibodies isolated to greater degrees of purity, e.g., 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, or 100% purity.
[0042] "GPRC5DxCD3 bispecific antibody" refers to a molecule containing two or more binding regions, one of which specifically binds to the cell surface antigen G protein-coupled receptor class C group 5 member D antigen (GPRC5D) on a target cell or tissue, and a second binding region of the molecule specifically binds to the T cell antigen CD3. This dual / multiple target binding ability recruits T cells to the target cell or tissue, resulting in eradication of the target cell or tissue. GPRC5D / CD3 bispecific antibodies are described in U.S. Pat. No. 10,562,968, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
[0043] "GPRC5D" refers to the human G protein-coupled receptor family C group 5 member D, having the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:21.

[0044] "CD3" refers to a human antigen expressed on T cells as part of the multimolecular T cell receptor (TCR) complex and consisting of a homodimer or heterodimer formed from the association of two or four receptor chains: CD3 epsilon, CD3 delta, CD3 zeta, and CD3 gamma. Human CD3 epsilon comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 22. SEQ ID NO: 23 shows the extracellular domain of CD3 epsilon.

[0045] "Epitope" refers to the portion of an antigen to which an antibody specifically binds. Epitopes usually consist of chemically active (e.g., polar, nonpolar, or hydrophobic) surface groups of moieties such as amino acids or polysaccharide side chains and may have specific charge characteristics as well as specific three-dimensional structural characteristics. Epitopes can be composed of contiguous and / or discontinuous amino acids that form a conformational spatial unit. In discontinuous epitopes, amino acids in different parts of the linear sequence of the antigen are brought into close proximity in three-dimensional space due to folding of the protein molecule.
[0046] "Variant" refers to a polypeptide or polynucleotide that differs from a reference polypeptide or polynucleotide by one or more modifications, such as, for example, a substitution, insertion, or deletion.
[0047] By "in combination with" it is meant that two or more therapeutic agents can be administered to a subject together in a mixture, simultaneously as single agents, or sequentially as single agents in any order.
[0048] "Treat," "treatment," and like terms refer to both therapeutic and prophylactic or preventative measures, and include reducing the severity and / or frequency of symptoms, eliminating symptoms and / or the underlying cause of symptoms, reducing the frequency or likelihood of symptoms and / or the underlying cause of symptoms, and ameliorating or repairing damage caused directly or indirectly by malignancy. Treatment also includes prolonging survival as compared to expected survival of a subject not receiving treatment. Subjects to be treated include those suffering from a condition or disease as well as those susceptible to a condition or disease, or those in whom the condition or disease is to be prevented.
[0049] A "therapeutically effective amount" refers to an amount of the disclosed composition effective to achieve the desired treatment at the required dosage and for the required period of time. A therapeutically effective amount may vary depending on factors such as the subject's condition, age, sex, and weight, as well as the ability of the combined therapy to elicit a desired response in the subject. Exemplary indicators of a therapeutically effective amount include, for example, an improvement in the patient's health, a decrease in tumor burden, a halt or delay in tumor growth, and / or the absence of metastasis of cancer cells to other locations in the body.
[0050] A "pharmaceutical composition" refers to a composition comprising an active ingredient and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. As used herein, "pharmaceutical product" or "DP" is synonymous with "pharmaceutical composition" or "aqueous pharmaceutical composition" unless expressly stated otherwise. Accordingly, embodiments that refer to a "pharmaceutical composition" or "aqueous pharmaceutical composition" or a described feature thereof are understood to encompass and apply to a "pharmaceutical product" or "DP." Similarly, embodiments or features of a "pharmaceutical product" or "DP" are understood to encompass and apply to a "pharmaceutical composition" or "aqueous pharmaceutical composition."
[0051] A pharmaceutical composition, aqueous pharmaceutical composition, medicament, or DP of the present disclosure may be "stable." As used herein, a pharmaceutical composition, aqueous pharmaceutical composition, medicament, or DP (which are all synonymous) is considered stable if it complies with the criteria provided herein. For example, a pharmaceutical composition, aqueous pharmaceutical composition, medicament, or DP is considered stable if it meets certain predetermined thresholds for solution color, pH, turbidity, number of subvisible particles, percentage of purity (by cSDS), percentage of new peaks (by cSDS), percentage of major components (by SE-HPLC), percentage of low molecular weight species (by SE-HPLC), percentage of high molecular weight species (by SE-HPLC), percentage of main peak (by IEX), percentage of sum of acidic peaks (by IEX), percentage of sum of basic peaks (by IEX), protein concentration, percentage of T cell activation, percentage of PS20 (w / v), or any combination thereof. The stability of a pharmaceutical composition, aqueous pharmaceutical composition, drug product, or DP may depend on any one of the above criteria, or any combination thereof. Therefore, a pharmaceutical composition, aqueous pharmaceutical composition, drug product, or DP that meets certain criteria may be considered stable even if other criteria are not met. Furthermore, it should be understood that cSDS, SE-HPLC, and IEX techniques are merely exemplary. The percentage of purity, percentage of new peaks, percentage of major components, percentage of low molecular weight species, percentage of high molecular weight species, percentage of main peak, percentage of total acidic peaks, and percentage of total basic peaks may be determined by any method known in the art. Such methods are within the scope of the present disclosure.
[0052] A "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" or "excipient" refers to an ingredient in a pharmaceutical composition, other than an active ingredient, that is not toxic to a subject.
[0053] The term "cancer," as used herein, is defined as a disease characterized by the rapid and uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. Cancer cells can spread locally or to other parts of the body via the bloodstream and lymphatic system. In certain embodiments, the cancer is a hematological malignancy or a solid tumor. In some embodiments, the hematological malignancy is selected from the group consisting of multiple myeloma, smoldering multiple myeloma, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), Burkitt's lymphoma (BL), follicular lymphoma (FL), mantle-cell lymphoma (MCL), Waldenstrom's hypergammaglobulinemia, plasma cell leukemia, light-chain amyloidosis (AL), precursor B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia, precursor B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia (AML), myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), and / or myelodysplastic syndromes (MSS). syndrome (MDS), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), B-cell malignancies, chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), hairy cell leukemia (HCL), blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm, Hodgkin's lymphoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (MZL), mucosa-associated lymphatic tissue (MALT), plasma cell leukemia, anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL), leukemia, or lymphoma.
[0054] "Tumor cells" or "cancer cells" refer to cancerous, precancerous, or transformed cells that have undergone spontaneous or induced phenotypic changes, either in vivo, ex vivo, or in tissue culture. These changes do not necessarily involve the incorporation of new genetic material. Transformation can occur through infection with a transforming virus and the incorporation of new genomic nucleic acid, through the incorporation of exogenous nucleic acid, or can occur spontaneously or after exposure to a carcinogen, thereby mutating endogenous genes. Transformation / cancer is exemplified by morphological changes, cellular immortalization, aberrant growth control, formation of foci, proliferation, malignant lesions, modulation of tumor-specific marker levels, invasiveness, and tumor growth in suitable animal hosts, such as nude mice, in vitro, in vivo, and ex vivo.
[0055] A "T cell redirecting therapeutic agent" refers to a molecule containing two or more binding regions, where one of the binding regions specifically binds to a cell surface antigen on a target cell or tissue, and where a second binding region of the molecule specifically binds to a T cell antigen. Examples of cell surface antigens include tumor-associated antigens such as BCMA or GPRC5D. Examples of T cell antigens include, for example, CD3. This dual / multiple target binding ability recruits T cells to the target cell or tissue, resulting in eradication of the target cell or tissue.
[0056] A "subject" includes any human or non-human animal. A "non-human animal" includes all vertebrates, e.g., mammals and non-mammals, such as non-human primates, sheep, dogs, cats, horses, cows, chickens, amphibians, reptiles, etc. The terms "subject" and "patient" may be used interchangeably herein.

In some embodiments, the subject is relapsed or refractory to treatment with a previous anti-cancer treatment, such as a therapeutic agent used to treat multiple myeloma or other hematological malignancies.
[0158] In some embodiments, the subject is refractory or relapsed to treatment with one or more treatments or therapies, such as THALOMID® (thalidomide), REVLIMID® (lenalidomide), POMALYST® (pomalidomide), VELCADE® (bortezomib), NINLARO (ixazomib), KYPROLIS® (carfilzomib), FARADYK® (panobinostat), AREDIA® (pamidronate), ZOMETA® (zoledronic acid), DARZALEX® (daratumumab), elotozumab or melphalan, Xpovio® (selinexor), Venclexta® (venetoclax), GSK916, CAR-T therapy, BCMA-directed therapy, other GPRC5D-related therapy, etc.
[0159] Various qualitative and / or quantitative methods can be used to determine disease recurrence or refractory status. Possible associated symptoms include, for example, a decline or plateau in the patient's health, recurrence or worsening of various symptoms associated with solid tumors, and / or the metastasis of cancerous cells from one location to other organs, tissues, or cells within the body.
[0160] In some embodiments, the multiple myeloma is relapsed or refractory to treatment with at least four prior therapies including a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory agent, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody selected from, for example, daratumumab, selinexor, lenalinomide, bortezomib, pomalidomide, carfilzomib, or thalidomide, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the multiple myeloma is relapsed or refractory to treatment with at least three prior therapies including an immunomodulatory agent, a proteasome inhibitor, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody selected from, for example, daratumumab, selinexor, lenalinomide, bortezomib, pomalidomide, carfilzomib, or thalidomide, or any combination thereof, and the patient has exhibited disease progression or failed to respond to the last therapy.
[0161] In some embodiments, the multiple myeloma is relapsed or refractory to treatment with selinexor, venetoclax, anti-CD38 antibody, lenalinomide, bortezomib, pomalidomide, carfilzomib, elotozumab, ixazomib, melphalan, or thalidomide, or any combination thereof.
[0162] In some embodiments, the multiple myeloma is high-risk multiple myeloma. Subjects with high-risk multiple myeloma are known to relapse early and have poor prognosis and outcome. Subjects that can be classified as having high-risk multiple myeloma have one or more of the following cytogenetic abnormalities: t(4;14)(p16;q32), t(14;16)(q32;q23), del17p, 1qAmp, t(4;14)(p16;q32) and t(14;16)(q32;q23), t(4;14)(p16;q32) and del17p, t(14;16)(q32;q23) and del17p, or t(4;14)(p16;q32), t(14;16)(q32;q23), and del17p. In some embodiments, subjects with high-risk multiple myeloma may have one or more chromosomal abnormalities including: t(4;14)(p16;q32), t(14;16)(q32;q23), del17p, 1qAmp, t(4;14)(p16;q32) and t(14;16)(q32;q23), t(4;14)(p16;q32) and del17p, t(14;16)(q32;q23) and del17p; or t(4;14)(p16;q32), t(14;16)(q32;q23) and del17p, or any combination thereof.
[0163] Cytogenetic abnormalities can be detected, for example, by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). In chromosomal translocations, oncogenes are translocated to the IgH region on chromosome 14q32, resulting in dysregulation of these genes. The t(4;14)(p16;q32) involves a translocation of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) and multiple myeloma SET domain-containing protein (MMSET) (also known as WHSC1 / NSD2), while the t(14;16)(q32;q23) involves a translocation of the MAF transcription factor C-MAF. The 17p deletion (del17p) involves loss of the p53 locus.
[0164] Chromosomal rearrangements can be identified using well-known methods, such as fluorescent in situ hybridization, karyotyping, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, or sequencing.
[0165] Methods for treating multiple myeloma using GPRC5DxCD3 bispecific antibodies, such as talquetamab, are described in WO 2022 / 058445, which is incorporated herein by reference.

[0166] According to one embodiment, a method for treating a human subject with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma comprises administering a stable aqueous pharmaceutical composition of the present invention in a dosing schedule according to the subject's body weight, the dosing schedule comprising subcutaneously administering the aqueous pharmaceutical composition to the subject at escalating doses of 0.01 mg / kg, 0.06 mg / kg, 0.4 mg / kg, and 0.8 mg / kg on days 1, 3, 5, and 7, respectively, followed by subcutaneously administering the aqueous pharmaceutical composition to the subject once every two weeks at a treatment dose of 0.8 mg / kg, wherein an aqueous pharmaceutical composition comprising 2 mg / mL of talquetamab is administered at doses of 0.01 mg / kg and 0.06 mg / kg, and an aqueous pharmaceutical composition comprising 40 mg / mL of talquetamab is administered at doses of 0.4 mg / kg and 0.8 mg / kg. As used herein with respect to the dosing schedule, mg / kg refers to mg of antibody, such as talquetamab, per kg of the subject's body weight.
[0167] According to an alternative embodiment, a method of treating a human subject with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma comprises administering a stable aqueous pharmaceutical composition of the present invention in a dosing schedule according to the subject's body weight, the dosing schedule comprising subcutaneously administering the aqueous pharmaceutical composition to the subject at escalating doses of 0.01 mg / kg, 0.06 mg / kg, 0.3 mg / kg, and 0.8 mg / kg on days 1, 3, 5, and 7, respectively, followed by subcutaneously administering the aqueous pharmaceutical composition to the subject once every two weeks at a treatment dose of 0.8 mg / kg, wherein the aqueous pharmaceutical composition comprising 2 mg / mL of talquetamab is administered at doses of 0.01 mg / kg and 0.06 mg / kg, and the aqueous pharmaceutical composition comprising 40 mg / mL of talquetamab is administered at doses of 0.3 mg / kg and 0.8 mg / kg.
[0168] According to an alternative embodiment, a method of treating a human subject with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma comprises administering a stable aqueous pharmaceutical composition of the present invention in a dosing schedule according to the subject's body weight, the dosing schedule comprising subcutaneously administering the aqueous pharmaceutical composition to the subject at escalating doses of 0.01 mg / kg, 0.06 mg / kg, and 0.4 mg / kg on days 1, 3, and 5, respectively, followed by subcutaneously administering the aqueous pharmaceutical composition to the subject once a week at a treatment dose of 0.4 mg / kg, wherein the aqueous pharmaceutical composition comprising 2 mg / mL of talquetamab is administered at doses of 0.01 mg / kg and 0.06 mg / kg, and the aqueous pharmaceutical composition comprising 40 mg / mL of talquetamab is administered at each dose of 0.4 mg / kg.
[0169] In a preferred embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition is therapeutically effective in treating relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma in a human subject, and in particular, the composition is effective in inducing a partial response, a very good partial response, a complete response, or a stringent complete response as determined by the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) response criteria. As used herein, overall response rate (ORR) refers to the percentage of patients in a population who achieve a partial response (PR) or better, i.e., a partial response, a very good partial response, a complete response, or a stringent complete response. The IMWG criteria for response to multiple myeloma treatment are provided in Table A below.
[0170] [Table 8] CR = complete response; FLC = free light chain; IMWG = International Myeloma Working Group; M protein = monoclonal paraprotein; MR = minimal response; PC = plasma cell; PD = progressive disease; PR = partial response; sCR = stringent complete response; SD = stable disease; VGPR = very good partial response a The presence / absence of clonal cells is based on the kappa / lambda ratio. An abnormal kappa / lambda ratio by immunohistochemistry or immunofluorescence requires a minimum of 100 plasma cells for analysis. An abnormal ratio reflecting the presence of an abnormal clone is a kappa / lambda greater than 4:1 or less than 1:2. * Clarification of the IMWG criteria for coding CR and VGPR in subjects whose only measurable disease is due to serum FLC levels: CR in such subjects exhibits the CR criteria listed above plus a normal FLC ratio of 0.26 to 1.65. VGPR in such subjects requires a greater than 90% reduction in the difference between involved and uninvolved FLC levels.
[0171] The IMWG criteria for response to multiple myeloma treatment are also described, for example, in Durie et al., Kumar et al., and Rajkumar et al.: Durie BG, Harousseau JL, Miguel JS, et al.

[0201] Analytical Testing - Purity Capillary electrophoresis sodium dodecyl sulfate (cSDS)-reduced Reduced cSDS Materials and Methods—The analysis uses a commercially available capillary electrophoresis system with a bare fused-silica capillary, 50 μm inner diameter x 30.2 cm long, in a temperature-controlled cartridge. The capillary is equipped with a detection window transparent to UV light. The capillary is electrokinetically rinsed before each injection. Prior to each sample analysis, the capillary is filled with a sieving matrix consisting of an entangled polymer solution. The method utilizes SDS-MW gel running buffer and protein molecular weight authentication standards ranging from approximately 10 to 148 kDa. The UV absorption spectrophotometer detector of the instrument is set to a wavelength of 220 nm, and the capillary temperature is set to 25°C. To achieve reduced sample processing conditions, the test article (in duplicate) is mixed with SDS and 2-mercaptoethanol and then heated for a specified time and temperature to completely denature and reduce the protein. The reduced sample is electrokinetically injected by applying a voltage of 5 kV to the capillary for approximately 20 seconds, and then analyzed by applying a larger electric field for approximately 35 minutes. Detection is achieved by absorbance in the far-UV region of the spectrum at 220 nm. Percentage of total signal data is collected for the light chain, heavy chain, and aglycosylated heavy chain (AG HC). The stability of the aqueous pharmaceutical composition as determined by cSDS is defined as provided herein.
[0202] Capillary electrophoresis sodium dodecyl sulfate (cSDS) - non-reducing Non-reduced cSDS Materials and Methods: The analysis uses a commercially available capillary electrophoresis system with a bare fused-silica capillary, 50 μm inner diameter x 30.2 cm length, in a temperature-controlled cartridge. The capillary is equipped with a detection window transparent to UV light. The capillary is electrokinetically rinsed before each injection. Before each sample analysis, the capillary is filled with a sieving matrix consisting of an entangled polymer solution.

It is then heated for a specified time and temperature to completely denature the protein and minimize the formation of fragments and artifact bands. The non-reduced sample is electrokinetically injected into the capillary by applying a voltage of 5 kV for approximately 20 seconds, followed by analysis by applying a larger electric field for approximately 35 minutes. Detection is achieved by absorbance in the far-UV region of the spectrum at 220 nm. Percent total signal data is collected. Data is also analyzed for the presence of new peaks compared to the talquetamab reference material. Percent purity is defined as percent heavy chain + percent light chain. The stability of the aqueous pharmaceutical composition as determined by cSDS is defined as provided herein.
[0203] Size-exclusion high-performance liquid chromatography (SE-HPLC) SE-HPLC Materials and Methods—Reference materials and test articles were diluted to the target protein concentration. A 20 μL volume of the analyte was injected onto a 7.8 mm x 30 cm exclusion column with a 5 μm particle size silica base and a cutoff range of 10 to 500 kDa. Aqueous phosphate buffer was used as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.7 mL / min, and the absorbance of the eluate was continuously monitored at 280 nm. Monomers (major components or peaks), aggregates (high molecular weight species, or HMWS), and fragments (low molecular weight species, or LMWS) were separated on the column and eluted at different retention times.

[0204] Ion Exchange Chromatography (IEX) IEX Materials and Methods The analytical procedure was performed using an HPLC system equipped with a diode array or UV detector, column heating capability, and a temperature-controlled HPLC autoinjector. The stationary phase was a MAbPac SCX-10, 4 x 250 mm, 10 μm particle size, cation exchange column maintained at 35°C ± 2°C. Mobile phase A was ThermoFisher CX-1 pH gradient buffer A (pH 5.6) diluted 1:10 with DI water. Mobile phase B was ThermoFisher CX-1 pH gradient buffer B (pH 10.2) diluted 1:10 with DI water. Reference and test substances were diluted to target protein concentrations. Aliquots of 10–100 μl were transferred to sample vials and placed in a temperature-controlled HPLC autoinjector set at 5°C ± 2°C. The run time per sample was 16 minutes at a flow rate of 0.75 mL / min. A gradient mediated by mobile phases A and B was applied, which incrementally increased the pH of the mobile phase during the run. As the pH increased, the isoforms became neutral and eluted from the column. The eluate was continuously monitored at 280 nm, and the relative amounts of each isoform were determined by comparing peak area counts. The largest peak observed was designated the main peak. All peaks / groups eluted before the main peak as designated acidic species, and all peaks / groups eluted after the main peak as designated basic species.

[0205] Analytical Test - Quantity Protein concentration by A280 The protein concentration of the drug product is determined by quantitation of absorbance at 280 nm (A280).
[0206] Protein Concentration by A280 Materials and Methods Protein concentration is measured using a qualified and calibrated double-beam UV-Vis spectrophotometer. A 40 mg / mL talquetamab test article is diluted 1:80 using 0.9% (w / v) NaCl. A 2 mg / mL talquetamab test article is diluted 1:6.7 using 0.9% (w / v) NaCl.

The spectrophotometer is set to a wavelength of 280 nm, a 1 nm slit width, and a 1 second response. 0.9% (w / v) NaCl is used as a blank control. Protein concentration (mg / mL) is determined by multiplying the absorbance of the test article by the dilution factor, the extinction constant of the antibody, and the path length of the instrument (for example, but not limited to, an extinction constant of 1.49 mg / mL for talquetamab). -1 cm -1 and the pathlength of the instrument (1 cm).

[0207] Analytical Testing - Potency Efficacy (T cell activation by GPRC5D / CD3) In vitro T cell activation by the GPRC5D / CD3 bispecific antibodies provided herein is demonstrated using a nuclear factor of activated T cells-response element (NFAT-RE)-mediated luminescence assay.
[0208] This reporter assay uses luminescence induced by activation of the NFAT (nuclear factor of activated T cells) pathway in engineered effector cells expressing CD3 as a readout for target cell / effector cell co-engagement and is a surrogate measure of target cell killing. MM.1R B lymphoblastoid cells expressing GPRC5D on their cell surface are used as target cells. Both engagement of the anti-GPRC5D Fab region with GPRC5D-expressing target cells and engagement of the anti-CD3 Fab region with engineered CD3+ T cells are required for T cell activation and subsequent NFAT-RE-mediated luminescence.
[0209] Materials and Methods for GPRC5D / CD3 T Cell Activation. Qualified talquetamab was used as the reference material and control. 1.3 x 10 cells per mL of culture medium (4% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum in RPMI) were used. 6 1.75 x 10 viable cells per mL of Jurkat TCR / CD3 effector cell solution and culture medium 5 A solution of MM.1R B lymphoblast target cells is prepared at 1000 viable cells. Equal amounts of effector and target cells are aliquoted into individual wells on a 96-well cell culture plate. The plate is then incubated for 16-24 hours at 37°C (±2°C) with 5% (±2%) CO2. After incubation, Bio-Glo™ luciferase substrate is added to each well and gently agitated on a plate shaker for at least 5 minutes. Luminescence (relative light units (RLU) values) is measured using a microtiter luminescence plate reader within 30 minutes of substrate addition. Data are reported as percent bioactivity relative to the reference material. The stability of the aqueous pharmaceutical composition, as determined by GPRC5D / CD3 T cell activation activity, is defined as provided herein.
[0210] Analytical Tests - Surfactants Quantitative determination of polysorbate 20 Polysorbate 20 is quantitatively determined by mixed-mode ion-exchange / hydrophobic HPLC.
[0211] PS20 Materials and Methods. Analysis is performed on a gradient HPLC equipped with a 2.1 x 20 mm online column containing 30 μm water-wettable mixed-mode polymeric spherical adsorbent particles, an ELSD, and a temperature-controlled column section at 30°C. The flow rate is set at 1 mL / min, and the ELSD nebulizer and evaporator temperatures are both set at 50°C. Mobile phase A is 2% v / v formic acid in water, and mobile phase B is 2% v / v formic acid in isopropyl alcohol. Undiluted polysorbate 20 is used to prepare calibration and check standards. Test article samples are injected undiluted. Stability of aqueous pharmaceutical compositions, as determined by polysorbate 20 quantification, is defined as provided herein.
[0212] Analytical Testing - Routine Characterization Peptide Map The purpose of this test is to measure the level of post-translational modifications, such as oxidation, deamidation, and isomerization, that may be present in the antibody structure. The test article is subjected to enzymatic digestion to obtain peptide segments. These peptides are then evaluated by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS). Each analyzed peptide sequence is identified relative to its known location within the overall antibody structure. Post-translational modifications are measured by comparing the measured mass of the identified peptide sequence with its expected mass.
[0213] Peptide Mapping Materials and Methods. Samples are denatured with 6 M guanidine, 50 mM Tris pH 8.0, 5 mM EDTA, and filtered using a 30 kDa centrifugal filter device (flow-through discarded). The denatured sample is reduced with 1 M dithiothreitol (DTT), followed by alkylation with 1 M sodium iodoacetate and further treatment with DTT to quench the reaction. The reaction mixture is exchanged into digestion buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.0 with 1 mM CaCl2) through a Sephadex G-25 column, with separate columns used for blanks, reference materials, and test articles. An aliquot of a 1 mg / mL trypsin stock solution is added to the sample in digestion buffer to obtain a trypsin concentration of 20 μL / mL. The solution is incubated at 37°C for 2 hours ± 30 minutes. The trypsin-treated solution is cooled to room temperature, and the enzyme is inactivated with trifluoroacetic acid. The processed samples were evaluated by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) using a Waters Acquity BEH (ethylene bridged hybrid) C18, 2.1 x 100 mm, 1.7 µm, 130 Å column and an attached autosampler. Mobile phase A was 0.1% formic acid in water, and mobile phase B was 0.1% FA in acetonitrile (mobile phase B). The autosampler was set to 2-8 °C, the column was set to 40 °C, and the flow rate was set to 500 µL / min. Eluted peptides were subjected to electrospray ionization and detected using a calibrated online mass spectrometer.
[0214] Example 1: Early Formulation Development High-throughput (HTP) multifactorial screening test A high-throughput (HTP) multifactorial screening study was conducted to select combinations of formulation buffer type and concentration, excipient type, and pH. This was accomplished by generating multiple test formulations consisting of various combinations of buffer type and concentration, excipients, and pH values. The target antibody concentration used in all test formulations was 2 mg / mL. Sucrose was evaluated at 8.5% (w / v) and sorbitol at 5.0% (w / v).
[0215] In this study, approximately 200 μL of each test formulation was aliquoted into a 96-well plate, sealed to prevent evaporation, and held under stressed (40° C.) stability conditions for 3 weeks. The test formulations were then analyzed by SEC. The compositions of the test formulations and their corresponding SEC results are listed below in Tables 7, 8, and 9 for each buffer. Main effect plots calculated from all test formulation data were generated using Minitab 19.0 statistical software (Figures 1, 2, and 3).
[0216] [Table 12]
[0217] [Table 13]
[0218] [Table 14]
[0219] As seen in Figure 1, pH appears to have a strong, nonlinear, biphasic effect on the % monomer response, with a pH value of approximately 5.4 at the apex of the curve. Test formulations above 5.4 appear to lose monomer primarily to aggregation, while test formulations below pH 5.4 appear to lose monomer to fragmentation, as reflected in Figures 2 and 3, respectively. Monomer values at pH 5.1 and 5.6 are slightly lower than those at 5.4. However, monomer loss above 5.6 and below pH 5.1 appears to occur in a steeply nonlinear manner, inferring a finite pH range over which the formulation remains stable. Based on the pH profiles for the buffer species, histidine and phosphate were excluded as buffers.
[0220] To further evaluate the acetate buffer, a second set of main effects plots was generated using data from the acetate test formulations alone (Figures 4, 5, 6).
[0221] Figures 5 and 6 again show a strong linear effect of pH on aggregation and fragmentation, respectively, while Figure 4 again shows a nonlinear effect of pH on the monomer, although the curves appear to begin to plateau at pH 5.1.
[0222] Figures 4 and 6 show that decreasing acetate buffer concentration correlates with increased stability, while Figure 5 shows acetate buffer concentrations that have no significant effect on aggregation. Figures 4 and 5 show sucrose showing a slight increase in stability relative to sorbitol, while Figure 6 shows sorbitol showing a similarly slight increase in stability relative to sucrose.
[0223] Taken together, these initial screening studies identified an optimal formulation consisting of acetate buffer at low concentrations and a pH of 5.1–5.4. Based on practical considerations, sucrose was selected as the excipient.
[0224] Oxidative Stress Screening Test A preliminary oxidative stress screening study was conducted to evaluate the susceptibility (or lack thereof) of DP to oxidation. Oxidative stress was mediated by the addition of trace metals to DP test formulations, which were stored under stress (40°C) stability conditions for one month. As a mitigation strategy, EDTA was also added to the test formulations to evaluate its ability to mitigate oxidation.
[0225] This study included three experimental formulations: 1) without metals, 2) with metals, and 3) with metals and EDTA. The metal-free test formulation consisted of 1 mg / mL DP in 10 mM acetate, 8% (w / v) sucrose, 0.04% (w / v) PS20, pH 5.2. The metal-containing test formulation consisted of the metal-free test formulation supplemented with trace (low ppb) metals. The metal species selected for this study were based on the composition of metal alloy components potentially present in the manufacturing process. The concentrations of trace metals used in this study were 2- to 20-fold higher than the trace metals historically reported in the literature during the DP manufacturing process. The metal- and EDTA-containing test formulation was consistent with the metal-containing test formulation supplemented with 20 μg / mL EDTA.
[0226] The test formulations were aliquoted into 8R vials with a fill volume of 3.3 mL. All vials were stoppered, capped, and crimp sealed. The vials were stored under stress (40°C) stability conditions for one month. Samples were then removed and assayed.
[0227] After one month under stressed (40°C) stability conditions, the metal-free test formulation showed an increase in HMWS as measured by SE-HPLC and a decrease in purity as measured by both non-reduced and reduced cSDS (Table 10). These results are consistent with monoclonal antibodies stored under stressed (40°C) stability conditions for one month. The metal-containing test formulation showed a dramatic increase in HMWS and a decrease in purity compared to the metal-free formulation at the same time point. This data suggests that the species and concentrations of trace metals used in this study contributed to increased degradation relative to similar test formulations without metals under stressed (40°C) stability conditions for one month. However, the metal-containing and EDTA test formulations showed assay values consistent with those without metals. These data suggest that the addition of EDTA to the test formulation mitigated the apparent increased diffusion effect seen with trace metals in the metal-containing test formulations under stressed (40°C) stability conditions for one month.
[0228] [Table 15]
[0229] Based on the results of this preliminary oxidative stress screening study, EDTA was added to the DP formulation.
[0230] Example 2: Shaking a range of polysorbate concentrations A shaking stress test was conducted to evaluate the range of polysorbate concentrations capable of maintaining mAb stability against mechanical stress. This test evaluated formulations containing PS20 concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 0.08% (w / v). PS20 was added to formulations containing 2 mg / mL and 40 mg / mL talquetamab in 15 mM acetate, 8% (w / v) sucrose, 0.02 mg / mL EDTA, pH 5.2, to achieve PS20 concentrations of 0.01, 0.02%, 0.04%, 0.06%, and 0.08% (w / v). The 2 mg / mL formulation was filled into 6 mL type I glass vials with a fill volume of 2.0 mL, and the 40 mg / mL formulation was filled into 2 mL type I glass vials with a fill volume of 1.4 mL. The vials were placed on an orbital platform shaker and agitated at 250 rpm at ambient temperature for 24 hours. The samples were analyzed and the results are shown in Tables 11 and 12.
[0231] For formulations varying in PS20 concentration from 0.02 to 0.08% (w / v), no significant changes were observed between formulations stirred for at least 24 hours. Sub-Vis results for all PS20 concentrations and conditions can be considered essentially the same when viewed within the context of the magnitude of the compendial acceptance criteria and the overall methodology. For formulations containing 0.01% PS20, there was a slight increase in HMWS (%) and loss of major components (%) (aggregates and monomers, respectively). However, these values are consistent with the definition of a stable aqueous pharmaceutical composition provided herein.
[0232] This study demonstrated that talquetamab formulations containing 0.01–0.08% (w / v) PS20 remained stable under mechanical stress conditions.
[0233] [Table 16] a)The formulation composition is 2 mg / mL or 40 mg / mL talquetamab in 15 mM acetate, 8% (w / v) sucrose, 0.02 mg / mL EDTA, pH 5.2, in addition to the levels of PS20 indicated in the table.
[0234] [Table 17] a) The formulation composition is 2 mg / mL or 40 mg / mL talquetamab in 15 mM acetate, 8% (w / v) sucrose, 0.02 mg / mL EDTA, pH 5.2, in addition to the levels of PS20 indicated in the table.
[0235] Example 3: Freeze-thaw stress test Tests were conducted to demonstrate the robustness of the formulation to the physicochemical stress induced by repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
[0236] In this study, 2 mg / mL and 40 mg / mL formulations (15 mM acetate, 8% (w / v) sucrose, 20 μg / mL EDTA, 0.04% (w / v) PS20, pH 5.2) were filled into 5 mL polycarbonate containers and placed upright in a -70°C freezer. After freezing was complete, the vials were removed from the freezer and placed at ambient temperature for thawing. Once fully thawed, the containers were gently swirled to ensure solution homogeneity, and then repeatedly frozen and thawed (F / T) until a total of five cycles were completed. The control sample did not undergo any freeze-thaw cycles. Both the control and the frozen and thawed samples were analyzed.
[0237] As shown in Table 13, the quality attributes of the samples that underwent five F / T cycles were nearly identical to the control samples stored at 2-8°C and not subjected to freeze-thaw conditions. Furthermore, no significant changes in protein concentration, solution color, pH, or turbidity were observed.
[0238] [Table 18]
[0239] The results of this study demonstrate the robustness of the 2 mg / mL and 40 mg / mL formulations to freeze-thaw induced stress.
[0240] Example 4: Metal spiking test Studies were conducted to further evaluate the impact of metal ions potentially present in or introduced into the drug product during the manufacturing process of the 2 mg / mL and 40 mg / mL talquetamab DP formulations.
[0241] The test formulation consisted of 2 mg / mL or 40 mg / mL talquetamab, 15 mM acetate, 8% sucrose, 20 μg / mL EDTA, and 0.04% PS 20 (pH 5.2), with iron (Fe 3+ ), chromium (Cr3 + ), copper (Cu 2+ ), Nickel (Ni 2+ ), and molybdenum (Mo 5+ The metals were tested with or without the addition of ZnO. The metal selection was based on the composition of metal alloying elements potentially present in the manufacturing process. To demonstrate robustness, exaggerated stress conditions were created by utilizing metal concentrations 5-13 times greater than trace metal values historically reported in the literature during the DP manufacturing process.
[0242] The 2 mg / mL test formulation was aliquoted into 6R vials with a fill volume of 3.5 mL, and the 40 mg / mL test formulation was aliquoted into 2 mL vials with a fill volume of 2.0 mL. All vials were stoppered, capped, and crimp-sealed. The vials were stable for up to 6 months at recommended (5°C) and accelerated (25°C) conditions. Samples were taken and assayed at the designated time points.
[0243] As shown in Table 14, the quality attributes of the metal ion-stressed 2 mg / mL and 40 mg / mL formulations after 6 months of storage at 2-8°C were nearly identical to the respective control formulations. Furthermore, for all test formulations stored at 2-8°C, there was little or no change in the quality attribute values at 6 months compared to the T=0 values. Finally, the quality attribute values of all metal-loaded formulations stored at 2-8°C for 6 months were consistent with the definition of a stable aqueous pharmaceutical composition provided herein.
[0244] As shown in Table 15, the quality attributes of the metal ion-stressed 2 mg / mL and 40 mg / mL formulations after 6 months of storage at 25°C were nearly identical to their respective control formulations. For all test formulations, slight to minimal changes in several quality attribute values were observed at 6 months compared to T=0 values. The extent of change was consistent with the expected degradation of these monoclonal antibody quality attributes upon 6 months of storage at 25°C. Finally, the quality attribute values of all metal-loaded formulations stored at 25°C for 6 months were consistent with the definition of a stable aqueous pharmaceutical composition provided herein.
[0245] Taken together, the data demonstrate the robustness of the formulations at 2 mg / mL and 40 mg / mL against potential oxidative stress experienced during normal and / or exaggerated pharmaceutical manufacturing processes and storage conditions.
[0246] [Table 19]
[0247] [Table 20]
[0248] Example 5: Development of formulation robustness Test Design A stable monoclonal antibody formulation is the result of the net effect of complex interactions between the formulation's components. To evaluate these interactions, we used Design of Experiments (DOE) methodology to create a multifactorial stability study in which a statistically determined number of experimental test formulations are generated that simultaneously vary the parameters of the formulation components. Statistical analysis of the test results provides a quantitative understanding of how formulation parameters interact to affect stability attributes, thereby demonstrating the robustness of the formulation.
[0249] Experimental test formulations of GPRC5D / CD3 drug product were held at recommended conditions (5°C) for up to 12 months and at accelerated conditions (25°C) for up to 6 months. Formulation components evaluated were protein concentration, acetate concentration, sucrose concentration, polysorbate 20 concentration, EDTA concentration, and pH. Concentration ranges for the factors tested are listed in Table 16 (target formulation values are included in the table for context). The study encompassed both 2 mg / mL and 40 mg / mL DP formulations. The typical protein concentration range for evaluation is + / - 12% of the target value. Therefore, the upper protein concentration value selected for testing corresponds to 112% of the 40 mg / mL formulation. For convenience, 1 mg / mL was used at the lower protein concentration (50% of the 2 mg / mL formulation).
[0250] [Table 21]
[0251] Based on this criteria, a six-factor IV, fractional factorial design was constructed using JMP® statistical software (Table 17).
[0252] [Table 22]
[0253] The vials were stoppered, capped, and crimp sealed. The vials were placed on stability at recommended conditions (5°C) and accelerated conditions (25°C). At designated time points, samples were taken and assayed.
[0254] Test results The test results for each attribute of the 16 formulations at the start of the study (time 0), after 6 months at accelerated temperature (25°C), and after 6 and 12 months at recommended storage conditions (5°C) are shown in Table 18. Data are reported as the range, mean, and standard deviation of the 16 formulations for each attribute.
[0255] Analytical results for all formulations held at 5°C for 12 months demonstrated little change in assay test values, indicating stability. The ability of all formulations with a multivariate range of excipient concentrations to produce a narrow range of assay test result values demonstrated the robustness of the formulations within the boundaries and storage conditions tested. Furthermore, the full range of values observed in this study was consistent with the definition of a stable aqueous pharmaceutical composition provided herein when held at 5°C for 12 months.
[0256] Analytical results for all formulations held at accelerated storage conditions (25° C.) for 6 months showed degradation effects consistent with the stability profile of the GPRC5DxCD3 antibody exposed to long-term accelerated storage conditions, as demonstrated by the increased magnitude of the range of result values when compared to both the start of the study (time 0) and 12 months at 5° C. However, the calculated mean values and overall range of values observed for all nine assay results were consistent with the definition of a stable aqueous pharmaceutical composition provided herein when held at accelerated (25° C.) storage conditions for 6 months.
[0257] [Table 23]
[0258] Statistical analysis of research results A statistical analysis of the 12M 2-8°C data was performed using a factorial regression model to determine which factors had statistically significant effects on a given response. Table 19 lists the calculated p-values for each factor for a given response and the corresponding adjusted R-squared values generated by the model. A p-value of less than 0.05 is considered statistically significant.
[0259] [Table 24]
[0260] API concentration While API concentration showed a statistically significant negative correlation with %monomer, it also showed a corresponding statistically significant positive correlation with %aggregates. These trends indicate that increasing API concentration correlates with decreased stability as measured by SEC. However, within the concentration range evaluated in this study (1-90 mg / mL), the range of %monomer and %aggregates assay results observed was consistent with the definition of a stable aqueous pharmaceutical composition provided herein.
[0261] API concentration also showed a statistically significant positive correlation with % Main Peak. However, as shown in Table 19, the range of resulting values for % Main Peak appears to be very narrow for these attributes. Therefore, although calculated to be statistically significant, API concentrations between 1 and 90 mg / mL are not expected to have a practical impact on % Main Peak.
[0262] pH of the formulation Formulation pH showed a statistically significant negative correlation with % monomer, while also showing a corresponding statistically significant positive correlation with % aggregate. These trends indicate that increasing pH correlates with decreased stability as measured by SEC. However, within the pH range evaluated in this study (4.7-5.7), the range of % monomer and % aggregate assay results observed was consistent with the definition of a stable aqueous pharmaceutical composition provided herein.
[0263] pH also showed a statistically significant negative correlation with % Main Peak, while showing a statistically significant positive correlation with % Acid Peak. However, similar to API concentration, the range of resulting values for % Acid Peak and % Main Peak appears to be very narrow for these three attributes, as shown in Table 19. Therefore, although calculated to be statistically significant, a pH between 4.7 and 5.7 is not expected to have a practical effect on % Acid Peak and % Main Peak.
[0264] Example 6: Bulk production of formulated drug Process Description Processing Solution
[0265] [Table 25]
[0266] Ultrafiltration / Diafiltration (UF / DF) Ultrafiltration / diafiltration (UF / DF) was performed to reformulate the talquetamab planova filtrate intermediate manufacturing solution into a pre-formulated bulk (pFB) solution consisting of 90 mg / mL talquetamab, 10 mM acetate, 8% (w / v) sucrose, pH 5.2.

[0331] Example 14: Phase 1 study of talquetamab administered as monotherapy in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma The efficacy of talquetamab monotherapy was evaluated in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma in the single-arm, open-label, multicenter study, MMY1001 (MonumenTAL-1) (NCT03399799, NCT04634552). This study included patients who had previously received at least three prior therapies, including a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulator, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody. This study also included patients who had previously received T cell redirected therapy (N=34). Patients received either talquetamab 0.4 mg / kg subcutaneously every week after two escalating doses (0.01 and 0.06 mg / kg) during the first week of treatment, or talquetamab 0.8 mg / kg subcutaneously every 2 weeks after three escalating doses (0.01, 0.06, and 0.3 mg / kg) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients were hospitalized for monitoring for at least 48 hours after each talquetamab dose during the titration phase.
[0332] A significant number of patients in the subcutaneous cohort received the formulations shown in Table 27 for talquetamab at a 2 mg / mL concentration (for escalating doses of 0.01 mg / kg and 0.06 mg / kg) and the formulations shown in Table 23 for talquetamab at a 40 mg / mL concentration (for doses of 0.4 mg / kg and 0.8 mg / kg).
[0333] Among 122 patients treated with 0.4 mg / kg weekly talquetamab who had not previously been exposed to T cell redirected therapy, the median age was 67 years (range: 47-86), 53% were male, 92% were white, and 7% were black or African American. Patients had received a median of 5 prior therapies (range: 3-13), and 77% had received prior autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). 93% of patients were refractory to their last therapy, and 75% were refractory to proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulators, and anti-CD38 antibodies. Among 113 patients for whom baseline cytogenetic data were available, high-risk cytogenetic factors (presence of t(4:14), t(14:16), and / or del(17p)) were present in 35% of patients.
[0334] Among 109 patients treated with talquetamab 0.8 mg / kg every 2 weeks (every 2 weeks) who had not previously been exposed to T cell-redirected therapy, the median age was 67 years (range: 38-82), 61% were male, 87% were white, and 6% were black or African American. Patients had received a median of 5 prior therapies (range: 3-12), and 79% had received prior autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). 95% of patients were refractory to their last therapy, and 69% were refractory to proteasome inhibitors (PIs), immunomodulators, and anti-CD38 antibodies. Among the 94 patients for whom baseline cytogenetic data were available, high-risk cytogenetic factors (presence of t(4:14), t(14:16), and / or del(17p)) were present in 33% of patients.
[0335] Efficacy outcomes were based on overall response rate (ORR) assessed by an independent review committee using IMWG criteria.
[0336] [Table 61] CI = confidence interval; MRD = minimal residual disease; NE = not estimable The median follow-up period was 14.7 months. a MRD-negativity rate was determined by the MRD-negative status (10%) at any time after the first dose and before progressive disease (PD) or subsequent anti-myeloma therapy. -5 ) is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve b Only MRD assessment within 3 months of achieving CR / sCR until death / progression / subsequent treatment (exclusion) (10 -5 Consider the test threshold.
[0337] [Table 62] CI = confidence interval; MRD = minimal residual disease; NE = not estimable Median follow-up = 8.1 months. a MRD-negativity rate was determined by the MRD-negative status (10%) at any time after the first dose and before progressive disease (PD) or subsequent anti-myeloma therapy. -5 ) is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve b Only MRD assessment within 3 months of achieving CR / sCR until death / progression / subsequent treatment (exclusion) (10 -5 Consider the test threshold.
[0338] The median time to first response was 1.2 (range: 0.2-10.9) months and 1.3 (range: 0.2-9.2) months for the 0.4 mg / kg weekly and 0.8 mg / kg once every 2 weeks (every 2 weeks) doses, respectively. ORR results were consistent across prespecified subgroups, including number of lines of prior therapy, refractoriness to prior therapy, and baseline cytogenetic risk.
[0339] MMY1001 also included 34 patients who had previously been exposed to T-cell redirection therapy and had received at least three prior therapies, including a protease inhibitor, an immunomodulator, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody. Patients received talquetamab 0.4 mg / kg subcutaneously once weekly, followed by two escalating doses (0.01 and 0.06 mg / kg) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The median age was 60 years (range: 38-78 years), 59% were male, 97% were white, and 3% were black or African American. Patients had received a median of six prior therapies (range: 3-15). Prior T-cell redirection therapy was CAR-T cell therapy for 82% of patients and bispecific antibody treatment for 24%. The median follow-up period was 9.9 months, and the ORR per IRC assessment was 71%.
[0340] Talquetamab exposure was comparable across the two dosing schedules. No clinically significant effects of anti-talquetamab antibodies on PK, efficacy, or AEs were observed. PD changes were comparable across both dosing schedules and consistent with talquetamab activity, including T cell activation, redistribution, and cytokine induction. In conclusion, talquetamab demonstrated robust efficacy and manageable safety in patients with heavily pretreated relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.
