Background Art
[0003] Background Integrins are cell - adhesion transmembrane receptors that function as extracellular matrix (ECM) - cytoskeleton linkers and transducers of biochemical and mechanical signals between cells and their environment. Due to their exposure on the cell surface and sensitivity to molecular inhibition, integrins such as α4β7 integrin have been investigated as pharmacological targets for treating various diseases, including cancer and inflammatory diseases (e.g., inflammatory bowel disease). However, current integrin therapies are associated with severe side effects and / or require multiple and frequent administrations to maintain therapeutic efficacy, considering the role of integrins in important biological processes. Therefore, improved α4β7 integrin therapies are needed.

[0221] Detailed explanation To facilitate understanding of this disclosure, several terms and phrases are defined below.
[0222] As used herein, unless otherwise indicated, the term “antibody” is understood to mean an intact antibody (e.g., an intact monoclonal antibody), or a fragment of an antibody such as an Fc fragment (e.g., an Fc fragment of a monoclonal antibody), or an antigen-binding fragment of an antibody (e.g., an antigen-binding fragment of a monoclonal antibody) (including modified, manipulated, or chemically conjugated intact antibodies, antigen-binding fragments, or Fc fragments). Generally, an antibody is a multimeric protein containing four polypeptide chains. Two of these polypeptide chains are called immunoglobulin heavy chains (H chains), and two of these polypeptide chains are called immunoglobulin light chains (L chains). The immunoglobulin heavy and light chains are linked by interchain disulfide bonds. The immunoglobulin heavy chain is linked by interchain disulfide bonds. The light chain consists of one variable region (VL) and one constant region (CL). The heavy chain consists of one variable region (VH) and at least three constant regions (CH1, CH2, and CH3). The variable region determines the antibody binding specificity. Each variable region contains three hypervariable regions known as complementarity-determining regions (CDRs), adjacent to four relatively conserved regions known as framework regions (FRs). The ranges of the FRs and CDRs are defined (Kabat, EA, et al. (1991) Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, Fifth Edition, USD Department of Health and Human Services, NIH Publication No. 91-3242, and Chothia, C. et al. (1987) J. Mol. Biol. 196:901-917). The three CDRs, designated CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3, contribute to antibody binding specificity. Naturally occurring antibodies are used as starting materials for engineered antibodies such as chimeric antibodies and humanized antibodies. Examples of antibody-based antigen-binding fragments include Fab, Fab', (Fab')2, Fv, single-chain antibodies (e.g., scFv), minibodies, and diabodies.Examples of modified or manipulated antibodies include chimeric antibodies, humanized antibodies, and polyspecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies). An example of a chemically conjugated antibody is an antibody conjugated to a toxin moiety.
[0223] The terms "variable domain" and "variable region" are used interchangeably and refer to portions of an antibody or immunoglobulin domain that exhibit sequence variability and are involved in determining the specificity and binding affinity of a particular antibody. Variability is not uniformly distributed throughout the antibody's variable domain, but is concentrated within the subdomains of the heavy and light chain variable regions. These subdomains are called "hypervariable regions" or "complementarity-determining regions" (CDRs). The more conserved (i.e., non-hypervariable) portions of the variable domain are called "framework" regions (FRMs or FRs), which provide a scaffold for the six CDRs to form antigen-binding surfaces in three-dimensional space.
[0224] As used herein, the “Fc polypeptide” of dimer Fc refers to one of the two polypeptides that form the dimer Fc domain (i.e., a polypeptide containing the C-terminal constant region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain that can stably self-associate). For example, the Fc polypeptide of dimer IgG Fc contains the IgG CH2 and IgG CH3 constant domain sequences. Fc can be of the IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM classes. These classes are also referred to as α, δ, ε, γ, and μ, respectively. Some of these can be further classified into subclasses (isotypes), e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and IgA2.
[0225] The terms “Fc receptor” and “FcR” are used to describe receptors that bind to the Fc region of an antibody. For example, an FcR can be a human FcR in its natural sequence. Generally, FcRs are those that bind to IgG antibodies (gamma receptors) and include the FcγRI, FcγRII, and FcγRIII subclass receptors (including allelic variants and alternative spliced forms of these receptors). The FcγRII receptor includes FcγRIIA ("activating receptor") and FcγRIIB ("inhibiting receptor"), which have similar amino acid sequences that differ primarily in their cytoplasmic domains. Other isotypes of immunoglobulins can also be bound by certain FcRs (see, e.g., Janeway et al., Immuno Biology: the immune system in health and disease, (Elsevier Science Ltd., NY) (4th ed., 1999)). The activating receptor FcγRIIA contains an immunoreceptor-activated tyrosine motif (ITAM) in its cytoplasmic domain. The inhibitory receptor FcγRIIB contains an immunoreceptor-suppressive tyrosine motif (ITIM) in its cytoplasmic domain (see Daeron, Annu. Rev. Immunol. 15:203-234 (1997)). FcRs are outlined in Ravetch and Kinet, Annu. Rev. Immunol. 9:457-92 (1991); Capel et al., Immunomethods 4:25-34 (1994); and de Haas et al., J. Lab. Clin. Med. 126:330-41 (1995). Other FcRs (including those to be identified in the future) are included in the term "FcR" as used herein. This term also includes the neonatal receptor FcRn, which is responsible for the transfer of maternal IgG to the fetus (Guyer et al., J.Immunol. 117:587 (1976); and Kim et al., J.Immunol. 24:249 (1994)).
[0226] The terms “recipient,” “individual,” “subject,” “host,” and “patient” are used interchangeably herein and, in some embodiments, refer to any mammalian subject, particularly human, to whom diagnosis, treatment, or therapy is desired. “Mammal” for treatment purposes refers to any animal classified as a mammal, including humans, livestock and farm animals, as well as laboratory, zoo, athletic, or companion animals (such as dogs, horses, cats, cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, mice, rats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and monkeys). In some embodiments, the mammal is human. None of these terms require the supervision of a medical professional.
[0227] As used herein, the term “effective dose” means the amount of a compound (e.g., a compound of this disclosure) sufficient to obtain a beneficial or desirable result. An effective dose may be administered in one or more doses, applications, or dosages and is not intended to be limited to any particular formulation or route of administration. As used herein, the term “treatment” includes any effect (e.g., relief, reduction, adjustment, ameliorating, or elimination of a condition, disease, or disorder, or improvement of its symptoms).
[0228] As used herein, the term “pharmaceutical composition” refers to a combination of an active agent and a carrier (inactive or active) that makes the composition particularly suitable for use in in vivo or ex vivo diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
[0229] As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” refers to any standard pharmaceutically acceptable carrier (such as phosphate-buffered salt solutions, water, emulsions (e.g., water / oil or oil / water emulsions), and various types of wetting agents). The composition may also contain stabilizers and preservatives. For examples of carriers, stabilizers, and adjuvants, see, for example, Martin, Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 15th Ed., Mack Publ. Co., Easton, PA (1975).
[0230] As used herein, the terms "a" and "an" mean "one or more" and include the plural unless otherwise appropriate to the context.
[0231] Where used herein, all numbers or numerical ranges include the entire set of integers that fall within or encompass the range, and any fractional values or integers that fall within or encompass the range, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Thus, for example, a reference to the range of 90-100% includes 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 95%, 96%, 97%, etc., as well as 91.1%, 91.2%, 91.3%, 91.4%, 91.5%, etc., and 92.1%, 92.2%, 92.3%, 92.4%, 92.5%, etc. In another example, references to the range of 1 to 5,000 times include 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 times, as well as 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5 times, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5 times, etc.
[0232] When used herein, "approximately" means a number that includes that number and extends from 10% below that number to 10% above that number. "Approximately" means a range that extends from 10% below the lower limit of that range to 10% above the upper limit of that range.
[0233] "Percent (%) identity" refers to the degree to which two sequences (nucleotides or amino acids) have identical residues at the same positions in an alignment. For example, "The amino acid sequence is X% identical to sequence number Y" refers to the % identity of the amino acid sequence to sequence number Y, and further details that X% of the residues in the amino acid sequence are identical to the residues in the sequence disclosed in sequence number Y. Generally, computer programs are used for such calculations. Exemplary programs for comparing and aligning sequence pairs include ALIGN (Myers and Miller, 1988), FASTA (Pearson and Lipman, 1988; Pearson, 1990), and gapped BLAST (Altschul et al., 1997), BLASTP, BLASTN, or GCG (Devereux et al., 1984).
[0234] Throughout the description, where a composition is described as having, including, or comprising, certain components, or where a process and method is described as having, including, or comprising, certain steps, it is intended that there exist compositions of the disclosure that are essentially composed of or consist of the described components, and that there exist processes and methods of the disclosure that are essentially composed of or consist of the described processing steps.
[0235] As a general rule, unless otherwise specified, percentages of compositions are based on weight. Furthermore, if a variable is not defined, its previous definition prevails.

Examples of carriers include sterile water for injection (SWFI), bacteriostatic water for injection (BWFI), pH buffer solutions (e.g., phosphate-buffered saline), sterile saline solution, Ringer's solution, or dextrose solution.
[0290] Preservatives may be added to the formulations herein as needed to reduce bacterial activity. The addition of preservatives can facilitate, for example, the production of multi-use (multiple-dose) formulations.
[0291] α4β7 integrin-binding proteins can be freeze-dried to produce a freeze-dried formulation containing the protein and a freeze-drying protectant. The freeze-drying protectant may be a sugar (e.g., a disaccharide). In some embodiments, the freeze-drying protectant is sucrose or maltose. The freeze-drying formulation may also contain one or more buffers, surfactants, fillers, and / or preservatives.
[0292] The amount of sucrose or maltose useful for stabilizing lyophilized pharmaceuticals may be at least a 1:2 weight ratio of protein to sucrose or maltose. In some embodiments, the weight ratio of protein to sucrose or maltose is 1:2 to 1:5. In some embodiments, the pH of the formulation before lyophilization is set by the addition of a pharmaceutically acceptable acid and / or base. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutically acceptable acid is hydrochloric acid. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutically acceptable base is sodium hydroxide.
[0293] In some embodiments, the α4β7 integrin-binding protein is administered in a uniform dose. Alternatively, the patient's dose may be adjusted to match the patient's approximate body weight or surface area. Other factors determining the appropriate dosage may include the disease or condition to be treated or prevented, the severity of the disease, the route of administration, as well as the patient's age, sex, and medical condition. Those skilled in the art will routinely further refine the calculations necessary to determine the appropriate dosage for treatment, taking into account the dosage information and assays disclosed herein in particular. The dosage can also be determined using known assays for dosage determination in conjunction with appropriate dose-response data. Individual patient dosages can be adjusted while monitoring disease progression. Blood levels of the targetable construct or complex in the patient can be measured to determine whether the dosage needs to be adjusted to achieve or maintain an effective concentration. Pharmacogenic genomics can be used to determine which targetable constructs and / or complexes, as well as their dosages, are most likely to be effective for a given individual (Schmitz et al., Clinica Chimica Acta 308:43-53, 2001; Steimer et al., Clinica Chimica Acta 308:33-41, 2001).
[0294] Preparation method The above-described α4β7 integrin-binding proteins can be prepared using recombinant DNA techniques well known to those skilled in the art. For example, one or more isolated polynucleotides encoding an α4β7 integrin-binding protein can be ligated with other suitable nucleotide sequences (including, for example, constant region coding sequences and expression regulatory sequences) to produce a conventional gene expression construct (i.e., an expression vector) encoding the desired α4β7 integrin-binding protein. The production of the defined gene construct is within the realm of routine art in this field.
[0295] A nucleic acid encoding a desired α4β7 integrin-binding protein can be incorporated (ligated) into an expression vector, which can then be introduced into host cells by conventional transfection or transformation techniques. Exemplary host cells include Escherichia coli cells, Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, human fetal kidney 293 (HEK293) cells, HeLa cells, baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells, monkey kidney cells (COS), human hepatocellular carcinoma cells (e.g., Hep G2), and other myeloma cells that do not produce IgG proteins. Transformed host cells can be grown under conditions that enable the host cells to express the gene encoding the α4β7 integrin-binding protein.
[0296] Specific expression and purification conditions will vary depending on the expression system used. For example, when expressing a gene in E. coli, the gene is first cloned into an expression vector by placing the engineered gene downstream of a suitable bacterial promoter (e.g., Trp or Tac) and a prokaryotic signal sequence. The expressed protein may be secreted. The expressed protein may accumulate in refractile bodies or inclusion bodies and can be recovered after cell disruption by French press or sonication. The refractile bodies can then be solubilized, and the protein can be refolded and / or cleaved by methods known in the art.
[0297] When expressing a manipulated gene in a eukaryotic host cell (e.g., a CHO cell), the gene is first inserted into an expression vector containing a suitable eukaryotic promoter, a secretory signal, a poly(A) sequence, and a stop codon. Optionally, the vector or gene construct may include enhancers and introns. In embodiments involving a fusion protein containing an α4β7 integrin-binding protein or a portion thereof, the expression vector optionally includes sequences encoding all or part of a constant region capable of expressing all or part of the heavy or light chain. The gene construct can be introduced into a eukaryotic host cell using conventional techniques.
[0298] In some embodiments, an N-terminal signal sequence is included in the protein construct to express an α4β7 integrin-binding protein. Exemplary N-terminal signal sequences include signal sequences derived from interleukin-2, CD-5, IgG kappa light chain, trypsinogen, serum albumin, and prolactin.
[0299] After transfection, single clones for cell bank generation can be isolated using limiting dilution, ELISA, FACS, microscopy, or other methods known in the field, such as Clonepix. The clones can then be cultured under conditions suitable for bioreactor scale-up and maintained for α4β7 integrin-binding protein expression.
[0300] α4β7 integrin-binding proteins can be isolated and purified using methods known in the art (including centrifugation, deep filtration, cell lysis, homogenization, freeze-thaw cycles, affinity purification, gel filtration, ion exchange chromatography, hydrophobic interaction ion exchange chromatography, and mixed-mode chromatography).

[0302] Examples The disclosure described herein in general terms will be more readily understood by referring to the following examples. These examples are included solely for illustrative purposes of certain aspects and embodiments of the disclosure and are not intended to limit the disclosure.
[0303] Example 1. In Silico affinity maturation and liability removal of an anti-α4β7 integrin comparator antibody. Residual scanning analysis was performed on a humanized anti-α4β7 integrin control antibody derived from the parent antibody ACT-1. The three-dimensional structure of ACT-1, complexed with the target antigen, human integrin α4β7 integrin (PDB code 3V4P), was loaded into MOE software.
[0304] Prior to analysis, the antibody structure was optimized using MOE's automated structure preparation workflow. Structural problems such as missing atoms or geometric outliers were corrected, and any other non-essential crystallographic molecules were removed to prepare the antibody model for residue scanning analysis. Hydrogen atoms were added to the model using the Protonate 3D module in MOE while maintaining physiological pH conditions. Constrained minimization was then performed to complete the preparation. Six complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) were identified using the MOE antibody module. Each CDR region was thoroughly tested, and the residues involved were noted for further analysis.
[0305] A systematic scan of all residues in the CDR region was performed using MOE's residue scanning tool. Each residue was mutated one by one with all 19 other native amino acids except cysteine, and the effects on binding affinity, stability, and other protein properties were predicted using MOE's scoring function. Based on the results, the inventors identified key residues in the CDR region that could be mutated without negatively affecting the binding affinity, stability, or development potential of the comparison antibody. The combinations of mutations identified within each CDR were then evaluated in a similar manner. The results are summarized in Table 4. Table 4. Affinity and stability of α4β7 antibodies [Table 4-1] [Table 4-2] [Table 4-3] Δ affinity is a measure of the predicted change in affinity from the control antibody. The absolute value of the number corresponds to the magnitude of the predicted improvement. An improvement in affinity is indicated by a negative value. The value is a unitless prediction. ΔStability is a measure of the predicted change in stability from the control antibody. The absolute value of the number corresponds to the magnitude of the predicted improvement. A negative value indicates an improvement in stability. The value is a unitless prediction.
[0306] Example 2. Re-humanization of an anti-α4β7 integrin comparator antibody. We humanized the parental mouse anti-human α4β7 ACT-1 mouse antibody (the parental monoclonal antibody of the comparator antibody) using a complementarity-determining region (CDR) grafting approach. The parental mouse heavy and light chain sequences were modeled on a human antibody framework. A pair of human heavy and light chains was selected for humanization. The objective was to design these heavy and light chain pairs to improve the biophysical properties of the parental antibody while retaining the α4β7 integrin binding. These humanized molecules were designed to improve the development feasibility profile during scale-up in bioprocesses.
[0307] Example 3. Determination of antibody affinity for α4β7 integrin Using an SPR system equipped with a CM5 tip functionalized with anti-human Fc antibody, the binding kinetic rate and affinity constant were determined at 25°C in HBS-P+ running buffer supplemented with 1 mM Mn2+, 1 mM Ca2+, and 1 mM Mg2+. After a stabilization period in the running buffer, pre-diluted antibodies at 1–1.5 μg / mL were captured on the tip at a flow rate of 10 μL / min for 30 seconds. Subsequently, recombinant human α4β7 integrin was prepared at concentrations of 1.563 nM, 3.125 nM, 6.25 nM, 12.5 nM, 25 nM, 50 nM, and 100 nM, injected at a flow rate of 30 μL / min for 180 seconds, and then the dissociation phase was performed in running buffer only at a flow rate of 30 μL / min for 1200 seconds. The sample was injected onto newly captured mAbs using a multi-cycle method by regenerating the capture surface by injecting 10 mM glycine (pH 1.5). The data was processed and analyzed using SPR analysis software, and the sensorgram was fitted to a 1:1 binding model to determine the apparent association (ka) and dissociation rate constant (kd). From their ratio, the apparent equilibrium dissociation constant or affinity constant (KD = kd / ka) was obtained. The results are summarized in Table 5. Table 5 [Table 5]
[0308] Example 4. Binding to α4β7 integrin or α4β1 integrin on cells. Antibody binding to α4β7 integrin or α4β1 integrin expressed on cells was determined using FACS and two cell lines. The first cell line was RPMI-8866, known to express only α4β7 integrin. The second cell line was Ramos, known to express only α4β1. Briefly, cells were cultured and harvested according to standard distributor instructions. Cells were stained with purified antibodies at concentrations of 0 nM, 0.0064 nM, 0.032 nM, 0.16 nM, 0.8 nM, 4 nM, 20 nM, and 100 nM and incubated at 4°C for 1 hour. Cells were then stained with Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated goat anti-human IgG secondary antibody at a 1:1000 dilution. Cells were incubated at 4°C for 1 hour and protected from light. Cells were then washed, and the MFI of cells in each well was recorded using a flow cytometer by FACS. The subsequent data were analyzed using GraphPad Prism. The EC50 value was determined as the antibody concentration required to achieve 50% of the maximum plateau MFI. The anti-α4β7 integrin control antibody, as well as antibody 1 and antibody 2, showed specific binding to RPMI-8866 but not to Ramos cells. On the other hand, the tested anti-α4 antibody bound to both cell lines. The results are summarized in Table 6 and shown in Figures 1 and 2. Table 6 [Table 6] NB - No binding was observed within the tested concentration range.
[0309] Example 5. Inhibition of cell adhesion via MAdCAM-1 and α4β7 integrin or VCAM-1 and α4β1 integrin Integrins mediate cell adhesion by binding to different cell adhesion molecules. Specifically, α4β7 integrin mediates adhesion via the binding of MAdCAM-1, while α4β7 integrin mediates adhesion via the binding of VCAM-1. To determine the ability of antibodies to block cell adhesion mediated by either α4β7 integrin:MAdCAM-1 interaction or α4β1 integrin:VCAM-1, cell adhesion assays were performed using HuT-78 cells, which have been shown to express both α4β7 and α4β1. Briefly, plates were pre-prepared by coating the wells with either MAdCAM-1 diluted to 0.4 μg / mL in PBS or VCAM-1 diluted to 0.5 μg / mL in PBS. Plates were incubated overnight at 4°C. The following day, cells were harvested according to standard vendor instructions. 1 × 10⁶ cells per 1 mL 6 Cells were stained with calcein AM using a ratio of 1 μL of 1 mM calcein AM per cell. Cells were incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes. Subsequently, the cells were washed and resuspended at a density of 800,000 cells / mL in assay medium consisting of DMEM, 0.1% BSA, 10 mM HEPES, and 0.5 mM MnCl2. Purified antibodies were mixed with cells in a 1:1 volume ratio, gently centrifuged at 10 × g for 1 minute, and incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes. Antibodies were used at final concentrations of 0 nM, 0.0125 nM, 0.025 nM, 0.05 nM, 0.1 nM, 0.2 nM, 0.4 nM, and 2 nM. Individual well fluorescence values were read using a plate reader at 485 nm excitation and 520 nm emission. The wells were then gently washed twice with wash buffer, and the plates were analyzed again in the same manner. The subsequent data were analyzed using GraphPad Prism. The IC50 value was determined as the antibody concentration required to inhibit 50% of the observed maximum cell adhesion. The control antibody and variant antibody showed specific inhibition of MAdCAM-1-mediated cell adhesion, but not of VCAM-1-mediated adhesion. On the other hand, the tested anti-α4 antibody was able to inhibit VCAM-1-mediated cell adhesion. The results are summarized in Table 7 and shown in Figures 3 and 4. Table 7 [Table 7] NT - Not tested. No inhibition was observed within the NI-tested concentration range.
