Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This application claims priority from a Chinese patent application filed on January 22, 2020 (application number CN 202010073438.8).

[0002] The present disclosure relates to anti-TROP-2 antibodies, anti-TROP-2 antibody-exatecan analogue conjugates, methods for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, and their use in the preparation of medicaments for treating diseases or conditions mediated by TROP-2, particularly in the preparation of anti-cancer drugs. [Background technology]

[0003] Nothing herein necessarily constitutes prior art, but rather merely provides background information relevant to the present disclosure.

[0004] TROP-2 (human trophoblast cell surface glycoprotein antigen 2, also known as tumor-associated calcium signal transducer 2 (TACSTD2), epithelial glycoprotein 1 (EGP-1), gastrointestinal tumor-associated antigen (GA733-1), surface marker 1 (M1S1)) is a cell surface glycoprotein encoded and expressed by the Tacstd2 gene on chromosome 1p32. TROP-2 belongs to the GA733 protein family and shares relatively high structural and sequence similarity with epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM, Trop1, or TACSTD1), with a homology of 49%.

[0005] The primary structure of the TROP-2 protein is a polypeptide of approximately 36 kD consisting of approximately 323 amino acids, which is post-translationally modified by N-terminal glycosylation to form a type I plasma membrane glycoprotein, i.e., the TROP-2 protein, which is distinct from EpCAM. The TROP-2 protein spans the plasma membrane, with the N-terminus comprising an extracellular domain (Trop2EC), which is connected to a short intracellular tail (Trop2IC), a hydrophobic polypeptide consisting of 26 amino acid residues, by a single unidirectional transmembrane helix (TM), thereby anchoring it to the plasma membrane.

[0006] TROP-2 has now been found to play an important role in embryonic development and tumor cell proliferation and metastasis. TROP-2 was first discovered in trophoblast cells and is used as a surface marker. Trophoblasts are derived from extraembryonic trophoblasts, and TROP-2 contributes to embryo implantation and placental tissue formation, and plays an important role in maintaining the proliferation properties of embryonic stem cells and organ development. TROP-2 is also an important tumor progression factor. It is highly expressed in various tumors, including pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, gastric cancer, oral squamous cell carcinoma, and ovarian cancer, and can promote tumor cell proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. High expression is closely associated with shortened survival and poor prognosis in tumor subjects, making research into antitumor agents targeting TROP-2 of great significance.

[0007] Antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) connect monoclonal antibodies or antibody fragments to biologically active cytotoxins via linker compounds, taking advantage of the binding specificity of antibodies to surface antigens on normal and tumor cells and the high efficiency of cytotoxic substances, while avoiding the drawbacks of antibodies, such as the relatively small therapeutic effect and the excessive toxicity and side effects of toxic substances. This means that, compared with traditional chemotherapy drugs, antibody drug conjugates can kill tumor cells more precisely and reduce the impact on normal cells. Summary of the Invention

[0054] 1. Terminology Unless otherwise limited, all technical and scientific terms used herein are consistent with those commonly understood by those skilled in the art. Although any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used to practice or test the present disclosure, the preferred methods and materials are described herein. In describing and claiming the present disclosure, the following terms will be used in accordance with the definitions set forth below.

[0055] When trade names are used in this disclosure, it is intended to include the formulation of the trade name product, the drug and active drug portion of the trade name product.

[0056] Unless stated to the contrary, terms used in the specification and claims have the following meanings.

[0057] The term "drug" refers to a cytotoxic drug, which can have a chemical molecule that is relatively powerful in disrupting the normal growth of tumor cells. Cytotoxic drugs can, in principle, kill cells at sufficiently high concentrations, but due to their lack of specificity, they can also induce apoptosis of normal cells while killing tumor cells, resulting in severe side effects. The term also refers to toxins, such as small molecule toxins or enzymatically active toxins derived from bacteria, fungi, plants, or animals; radioisotopes (e.g., At 211 , I 131 , I 125 , Y 90 ,Re 186,Re 188 , Sm 153 , Bi 212 , P 32 and radioactive isotopes of Lu), chemotherapy drugs, antibiotics and nucleolytic enzymes.

[0058] The term "linker unit," "linker," "connecting unit," or "connecting fragment" refers to a chemical structural fragment or bond that is connected at one end to a ligand and at the other end to a drug, and may be connected to other linkers, which in turn may be connected to further ligands or drugs.

[0059] The linker may comprise one or more linker elements. Exemplary linker elements include 6-maleimidocaproyl ("MC"), maleimidopropionyl ("MP"), valine-citrulline ("val-cit" or "vc"), alanine-phenylalanine ("ala-phe"), p-aminobenzyloxycarbonyl ("PAB"), N-succinimidyl 4-(2-pyridylthio)pentanoate ("SPP"), N-succinimidyl 4-(N-maleimidomethyl)cyclohexane-1-carboxylate ("SMCC", also referred to herein as "MCC"), and N-succinimidyl (4-iodo-acetyl)aminobenzoate ("SIAB"). The linker may be selected from the following elements: a stretcher, a spacer, and an amino acid unit, or a combination thereof. The linker can be synthesized by methods known in the art, for example, as described in US2005-0238649A1. The linker may be a "cleavable linker" that facilitates drug release in cells. For example, an acid-labile linker (e.g., hydrazone), a protease-sensitive (e.g., peptidase-sensitive) linker, a photolabile linker, a dimethyl linker, or a disulfide-containing linker (Chari et al., Cancer Research 52:127-131 (1992); U.S. Patent No. 5,208,020) may be used.

[0060] The linker elements are: MC=6-maleimidocaproyl, which has the following structure: [ka] Val-Cit or "vc" = valine-citrulline (an exemplary dipeptide in a protease-cleavable linker); Citrulline = 2-amino-5-ureidopentanoic acid, PAB = p-aminobenzyloxycarbonyl (an example of a "self-immolative" linker element); Me-Val-Cit = N-methyl-valine-citrulline (in which the linker peptide bond is modified so that it is not cleaved by cathepsin B); MC(PEG)6-OH = maleimidocaproyl-polyethylene glycol (can be attached to antibody cysteines); SPP = N-succinimidyl 4-(2-pyridylthio)pentanoate, SPDP = N-succinimidyl 3-(2-pyridyldithio)propionate, SMCC = succinimidyl-4-(N-maleimidomethyl)cyclohexane-1-carboxylate, and Including, but not limited to, IT = iminothiolane.

[0061] The term "ligand-drug conjugate" refers to a ligand connected to a biologically active drug via a linking unit, preferably an "antibody-drug conjugate." In the present disclosure, an "antibody drug conjugate" (ADC) refers to a monoclonal antibody or antibody fragment connected to a biologically active toxic drug via a linking unit. The antibody may be conjugated to the drug directly or via a linker. n is the average number of drug modules per antibody, which may be an integer or a decimal. The range is, for example, about 0 to about 20 drug modules per antibody. In some embodiments, it is 1 to about 10 drug modules per antibody. In some embodiments, it is 1 to about 8 drug modules per antibody, for example, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 drug modules. In the antibody-drug conjugate mixture composition of the present disclosure, the average drug load of each antibody is about 1 to about 10, including, but not limited to, about 3 to about 7, about 3 to about 6, about 3 to about 5, about 1 to about 9, about 7, or about 4.

[0062] The three-letter and one-letter codes for amino acids used in this disclosure are as described in J. Biol. Chem, 243, p. 3558 (1968).

[0063] The term "antibody" refers to an immunoglobulin, which has a tetrapeptide chain structure consisting of two heavy chains and two light chains connected by interchain disulfide bonds. Immunoglobulins are divided into five types based on the amino acid composition and sequence order of the immunoglobulin heavy chain constant region, or may be referred to as immunoglobulin isotypes: IgM, IgD, IgG, IgA, and IgE, with the corresponding heavy chains being μ, δ, γ, α, and ε chains, respectively. Ig of the same type can be further divided into different subclasses based on differences in the amino acid composition of the hinge region and the number and position of heavy chain disulfide bonds; for example, IgG may be divided into IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4. Light chains are divided into κ or λ chains based on the constant region. Each of the five types of Ig may have either κ or λ chains.

[0064] In full-length antibody heavy and light chains, approximately 110 amino acids near the N-terminus are highly variable and form the variable region (Fv region), while the remaining amino acid sequence near the C-terminus is relatively stable and forms the constant region. The variable region contains three hypervariable regions (HVRs) and four framework regions (FRs) whose sequences are relatively conserved. The three hypervariable regions determine the specificity of the antibody and are also called complementarity-determining regions (CDRs). Each light chain variable region (LCVR) and heavy chain variable region (HCVR) consists of three CDR regions and four FR regions, arranged in the following order from the amino terminus to the carboxy terminus: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, and FR4. The three CDR regions of the light chain are LCDR1, LCDR2, and LCDR3, and the three CDR regions of the heavy chain are HCDR1, HCDR2, and HCDR3.

[0065] The terms "fully humanized antibody," "fully human antibody," "human antibody," or "fully human antibody," also referred to as "fully human monoclonal antibody," refer to antibodies whose variable and constant regions are both derived from humans, eliminating immunogenicity, toxicity, and side effects. The main technologies related to the preparation of fully human antibodies include human hybridoma technology, EBV-transformed B lymphocyte technology, phage display technology, transgenic mouse antibody preparation technology, and single B cell antibody preparation technology.

[0066] The term "antigen-binding fragment" refers to one or more fragments of an antibody that retain the ability to specifically bind to an antigen. Fragments of a full-length antibody can perform the antigen-binding function of an antibody. The binding fragments included in the term "antigen-binding fragment" are selected from antigen-binding fragments of Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, single-chain antibodies (scFv), dimerized V regions (diabodies), disulfide-stabilized V regions (dsFv), and peptides containing CDRs, and examples include: (i) a Fab fragment, which is a monovalent fragment consisting of the VL, VH, CL, and CH1 domains; (ii) an F(ab')2 fragment, which is a bivalent fragment comprising two Fab fragments connected by a disulfide bridge in the hinge region; (iii) an Fd fragment consisting of the VH and CH1 domains; (iv) an Fv fragment consisting of the VH and VL domains of a single antibody arm; (v) a single domain or dAb fragment consisting of the VH domain (Ward et al., (1989) Nature 341:544-546); and (vi) an isolated complementarity-determining region (CDR) or (vii) a combination of two or more isolated CDRs optionally connected by a synthetic linker. Furthermore, the two domains of an Fv fragment, VL and VH, are encoded by separate genes, but can be recombinantly linked with a synthetic linker to generate a single protein chain in which the VL and VH regions pair to form a monovalent molecule (called a single-chain Fv (scFv); see, for example, Bird et al. (1988) Science 242:423-426 and Huston et al. (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci USA 85:5879-5883). Such single-chain antibodies are also intended to be encompassed by the term "antigen-binding fragment" of an antibody. Such antibody fragments can be obtained by conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art, and, like intact antibodies, fragments are selected for their functionality. Antigen-binding portions can be produced by recombinant DNA technology or by enzymatic or chemical cleavage of intact immunoglobulins. The antibodies may be of different isotypes, such as, for example, IgG (eg, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 or IgG4 subtypes), IgA1, IgA2, IgD, IgE or IgM antibodies.

[0067] Typically, Fab is an antibody fragment with a molecular weight of approximately 50,000 and antigen-binding activity obtained by treating an IgG antibody molecule with the protease papain (e.g., cleaving the heavy chain at amino acid residue 224), in which the N-terminal portion of the heavy chain and the light chain are linked together by a disulfide bond.

[0068] Typically, F(ab')2 is an antibody fragment containing two Fab regions connected at the hinge, with a molecular weight of approximately 100,000, and having antigen-binding activity, obtained by digesting the lower portion of the disulfide bond in the IgG hinge region with the enzyme pepsin.

[0069] Generally, Fab' is an antibody fragment having a molecular weight of about 50,000 and having antigen-binding activity, which is obtained by cleaving the disulfide bond in the hinge region of the above-mentioned F(ab')2.

[0070] Alternatively, Fab' can be produced by inserting DNA encoding the Fab' fragment into a prokaryotic or eukaryotic expression vector and introducing the vector into a prokaryote or eukaryote to express the Fab'.

[0071] The terms "single-chain antibody," "single-chain Fv," or "scFv" refer to a molecule comprising an antibody heavy chain variable domain (or VH) and an antibody light chain variable domain (or VL) connected by a linker. Such scFv molecules may have the general structure NH2-VL-linker-VH-COOH or NH2-VH-linker-VL-COOH. Suitable prior art linkers consist of repeated GGGGS amino acid sequences or variants thereof, for example, 1-4 repeat variants (Holliger et al. (1993), Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90:6444-6448). Other linkers for use in the present disclosure are described in Alfthan et al. (1995), Protein Eng. 8:725-731, Choi et al. (2001), Eur. J. Immunol. 31:94-106, Hu et al. (1996), Cancer Res. 56:3055-3061, Kipriyanov et al. (1999), J. Mol. Biol. 293:41-56, and Roovers et al. (2001), Cancer Immunol.

[0072] The term "CDR" refers to one of the six hypervariable regions in the variable domain of an antibody that primarily mediates antigen binding. Typically, each heavy chain variable region has three CDRs (HCDR1, HCDR2, and HCDR3), and each light chain variable region has three CDRs (LCDR1, LCDR2, and LCDR3). The "Kabat" numbering convention (see Kabat et al. (1991), "Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest," 5th ed., Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD), the "Chothia" numbering convention (see Al-Lazikani et al. (1997) JMB 273:927-948), and the ImMunoGenTics (IMGT) numbering convention (see Lefranc MP, Immunologist, 7, 132-136 (1999); Lefranc, MP et al., Dev. Comp. Immunol., 27, The amino acid sequence boundaries of the CDRs can be determined by any one of a variety of known methods, including those described in the Kabat Rules (1995) 55-77 (2003). For example, in a typical format, the CDR amino acid residues in the heavy chain variable region (VH) are numbered 31-35 (HCDR1), 50-65 (HCDR2), and 95-102 (HCDR3), and the CDR amino acid residues in the light chain variable region (VL) are numbered 24-34 (LCDR1), 50-56 (LCDR2), and 89-97 (LCDR3), according to the Kabat Rules. According to the Chothia Rules, the CDR amino acid residues in the VH are numbered 31-35 (HCDR1), 50-65 (HCDR2), and 95-102 (HCDR3). The CDRs are 26-32 (HCDR1), 52-56 (HCDR2), and 95-102 (HCDR3), and the amino acid residue numbers in the VL are 26-32 (LCDR1), 50-52 (LCDR2), and 91-96 (LCDR3). According to the combined Kabat and Chothia CDR definition, the CDRs are composed of amino acid residues 26-35 (HCDR1), 50-65 (HCDR2), and 95-102 (HCDR3) in the human VH and amino acid residues 24-34 (LCDR1), 50-56 (LCDR2), and 89-97 (LCDR3) in the human VL.According to the IMGT rules, the CDR amino acid residues in VH are numbered approximately 26-35 (CDR1), 51-57 (CDR2), and 93-102 (CDR3), and the CDR amino acid residues in VL are numbered approximately 27-32 (CDR1), 50-52 (CDR2), and 89-97 (CDR3). According to the IMGT rules, the CDR regions of an antibody can be determined by the program IMGT / DomainGapAlign.

[0073] The term "framework region" refers to the part of a variable domain VL or VH that serves as a scaffold for the antigen binding loops (CDRs) of that variable domain. In effect, it is a variable domain without the CDRs.

[0074] The term "epitope" or "antigenic determinant" refers to a site on an antigen that is bound by an immunoglobulin or antibody. An epitope usually includes at least 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15 consecutive or non-consecutive amino acids in a unique spatial conformation. See, e.g., Epitope Mapping Protocols in Methods in Molecular Biology, Vol. 66, G.E. Morris, Ed. (1996).

[0075] The terms "specific binding," "selective binding," "selectively binds," and "specifically binds" refer to the binding of an antibody or fragment thereof to a predetermined epitope on an antigen. Typically, an antibody or fragment thereof binds to an epitope on an antigen within a range of about 10 -7 Less than m, e.g., about 10 -8 M, 10 -9 M or 10 -10 It binds with an affinity (KD) less than or equal to M.

[0076] The term "KD" refers to the dissociation equilibrium constant of an antibody-antigen interaction. Typically, antibodies or antigen-binding fragments of the present disclosure have a dissociation equilibrium constant of about 10 -7 Less than m, e.g., about 10 -8 M or 10 -9It binds to TROP-2 or an epitope thereof with a dissociation equilibrium constant (KD) of less than M. For example, in the present disclosure, the affinity between an antibody and a cell surface antigen is measured as a KD value by the FACS method.

[0077] The term "nucleic acid molecule" refers to a DNA molecule or an RNA molecule. A nucleic acid molecule may be single-stranded or double-stranded, with double-stranded DNA being preferred. A nucleic acid is "operatively linked" when it is placed into a functional relationship with another nucleic acid sequence. For example, a promoter or enhancer is operatively linked to a coding sequence if it affects the transcription of the coding sequence.

[0078] "Identity" of amino acid sequences is the percentage of amino acid residues in a first sequence that are similar to those in a second sequence, with gaps introduced as necessary during the alignment process to achieve the greatest percentage of sequence identity, and with any conservative substitutions not considered part of the sequence identity. To measure the percentage of amino acid sequence identity, alignment can be achieved by several methods within the skill of the art, such as publicly available computer software such as BLAST, BLAST-2, ALIGN, ALIGN-2, or Megalign (DNASTAR) software. Those skilled in the art can determine the parameters to be applied to measure alignment, including any algorithms necessary to achieve maximum alignment over the entire length of the sequences being compared.

[0079] The term "expression vector" refers to a nucleic acid molecule capable of transporting another nucleic acid to which it is linked. In one embodiment, the vector is a "plasmid," which refers to a circular double-stranded DNA loop into which other DNA segments can be linked. In another embodiment, the vector is a viral vector into which other DNA segments can be linked to the viral genome. The vectors disclosed herein can either autonomously replicate in a host cell into which they are introduced (e.g., bacterial vectors having a bacterial origin of replication and episomal mammalian vectors), or can integrate into the genome of a host cell after introduction and thereby replicate along with the host genome (e.g., non-episomal mammalian vectors).

[0080] Methods for producing and purifying antibodies and antigen-binding fragments well known in the art are described, for example, in Chapters 5-8 and 15 of the Cold Spring Harbor Manual of Antibody Laboratory Techniques. The antibodies or antigen-binding fragments described in the present invention have one or more human FR regions added to non-human CDR regions by genetic engineering. Human FR germline sequences can be obtained from the ImMunoGeneTics (IMGT) website by aligning the IMGT human antibody variable region germline gene database with MOE software, or from Immunoglobulin Journal, Lefranc, G., The Immunoglobulin Facts Book, Academic Press, 2001, ISBN 012441351.

[0081] The term "host cell" refers to a cell into which an expression vector has already been introduced. Host cells may include microbial (e.g., bacterial), plant, or animal cells. Bacteria amenable to transformation include members of the Enterobacteriaceae family, such as strains of Escherichia coli and Salmonella, Bacillaceae, such as Bacillus subtilis, Pneumococcus, Streptococcus, and Haemophilus influenzae. Suitable microorganisms include Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pichia pastoris. Suitable animal host cell lines include CHO (Chinese hamster ovary cell line) and NS0 cells.

[0082] The engineered antibodies or antigen-binding fragments of the present disclosure can be prepared and purified by conventional methods. For example, cDNA sequences encoding the heavy and light chains can be cloned and recombined into expression vectors. The recombinant immunoglobulin expression vector can be stably transfected into host cells. In one preferred conventional technique, a mammalian expression system results in glycosylation of the antibody, particularly at the N-terminal end of the Fc region. Positive clones are expanded in a bioreactor culture to produce the antibody. The culture medium secreting the antibody can be purified by conventional techniques, for example, through an A or G Sepharose FF column. Nonspecifically bound components are washed away. The bound antibody is then eluted using a pH gradient, and the antibody fragments are detected and collected by SDS-PAGE. The antibody can be filtered and concentrated by conventional methods. Soluble admixtures and multimers may be removed by conventional methods, such as molecular sieving or ion exchange. The resulting product should be immediately frozen, for example, at -70°C, or lyophilized.

[0083] The term "peptide" refers to a molecule consisting of two or more amino acid molecules joined together by peptide bonds, and is a structural and functional fragment of a protein.

[0084] The term "alkyl group" refers to a saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon group, a straight or branched chain group containing 1 to 20 carbon atoms, with alkyl groups containing 1 to 12 (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12) carbon atoms being preferred, alkyl groups containing 1 to 10 carbon atoms being more preferred, and alkyl groups containing 1 to 6 carbon atoms (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 carbon atoms) being most preferred.

[0093] The term "amino group" refers to -NH2.

[0094] The term "nitro group" refers to -NO2.

[0095] The term "cyano" refers to -CN.

[0096] The present disclosure further includes various deuterated forms of the compound of formula (Pc-LYD). Each available hydrogen atom connected to a carbon atom can be independently replaced with a deuterium atom. Those skilled in the art can synthesize deuterated forms of the compound of formula (Pc-LYD) by referring to relevant literature. When preparing the deuterated form of the compound of formula (Pc-LYD), commercially available deuterated starting materials may be used, or the compound may be synthesized by conventional techniques using deuterated reagents, including, but not limited to, deuterated borane, tritiated borane in tetrahydrofuran, deuterated lithium aluminum, deuterated iodoethane, deuterated iodomethane, etc.

[0097] "Optional" or "optionally" means that the subsequently described event or circumstance may, but need not, occur, and the phrase includes instances where the event or circumstance occurs and instances where it does not occur. For example, "a heterocyclyl group optionally substituted with an alkyl group" means that an alkyl group may, but need not, be present, and the phrase includes instances where the heterocyclyl group is substituted with an alkyl group and instances where the heterocyclyl group is not substituted with an alkyl group.

[0098] "Substituted" means that one or more hydrogen atoms in a group, preferably at most 5, more preferably 1, 2 or 3 hydrogen atoms, are independently replaced with a substituent. Substituents are located only in their chemically possible positions, and a person skilled in the art can determine (by experiment or theory) possible or impossible substitutions without undue effort. For example, an amino group or hydroxy group having free hydrogen may be unstable if it is bonded to a carbon atom having an unsaturated (e.g., olefinic) bond.

[0099] The term "pharmaceutical composition" refers to a mixture of one or more compounds described herein or physiologically / pharmaceutically acceptable salts or prodrugs thereof with other chemical components, and other components such as physiologically / pharmaceutically acceptable vectors and excipients, to facilitate administration to a living body and contribute to the absorption of the active ingredients to further exert their biological activity.

[0100] The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" or "pharmaceutically available salt" refers to a salt of an antibody-drug conjugate according to the present disclosure, which salt is safe and effective when administered to a subject and possesses the desired biological activity. The ligand-drug conjugate according to the present disclosure contains at least one amino group and can therefore form a salt with an acid. Non-limiting examples of pharmaceutically available salts include hydrochloride, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, sulfate, hydrogensulfate, citrate, acetate, succinate, ascorbate, oxalate, nitrate, sorbate, hydrogen phosphate, dihydrogen phosphate, salicylate, hydrogen citrate, tartrate, maleate, fumarate, formate, benzoate, methanesulfonate, ethanesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, and p-toluenesulfonate.

[0101] The term "drug loading" or "average drug load" refers to the average number of cytotoxic drugs loaded onto each ligand in a ligand-drug conjugate, and may be expressed as the ratio of the drug amount to the antibody amount. The drug loading ranges from 0 to 12, preferably 1 to 10, cytotoxic drugs attached to each ligand (Pc). In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the drug loading is represented by n, also referred to as the drug-antibody ratio (DAR) value, and is illustratively the average of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. The average drug amount on each ADC molecule after the coupling reaction can be characterized by conventional methods such as UV / visible spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, ELISA, and HPLC.

[0102] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the cytotoxic agent is conjugated to a sulfhydryl group of the antibody by a linking unit.

[0103] The following non-limiting methods: (1) controlling the molar ratio of the coupling reagent to the monoclonal antibody; (2) controlling the reaction time and temperature; (3) selecting different reaction reagents; The loading of the ligand-drug conjugate can be controlled by methods including, but not limited to,

[0104] The preparation of common pharmaceutical compositions is set out in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia.

[0105] The term "vector," as used in the present disclosure, refers to a system that can change the drug's entry into the human body and its distribution within the body, control the drug's release rate, and transport the drug to target organs. The drug vector's release and targeting system can reduce drug degradation and loss, lower side effects, and improve bioavailability. For example, polymer surfactants used as vectors can self-assemble to form various types of aggregates due to their unique amphiphilic structure, including micelles, microemulsions, gels, liquid crystals, and vesicles. These aggregates have the ability to encapsulate drug molecules and good membrane permeability, making them effective drug vectors.

[0106] The term "excipient" refers to an additive other than the main ingredient in a pharmaceutical formulation, which may also be called an auxiliary material. For example, binders, fillers, disintegrants, and lubricants in tablets, the matrix portion in semi-solid preparations such as ointments and creams, and preservatives, antioxidants, flavoring agents, fragrances, cosolvents, emulsifiers, solubilizers, osmotic pressure adjusters, and coloring agents in liquid preparations may all be called excipients.

[0107] The term "diluent," also known as a filler, is primarily used to increase the weight and volume of tablets. Adding a diluent not only ensures a consistent volume, but also reduces the dosage deviation of the active ingredient and improves the compressibility of the drug. When a tablet contains an oily ingredient, an absorbent must be added to absorb the oily substance to maintain a "dry" state and facilitate tablet formation. Examples include starch, lactose, inorganic calcium salts, and microcrystalline cellulose.

[0108] The pharmaceutical compositions may be in the form of a sterile injectable aqueous solution. Acceptable solvents and vehicles used include water, Ringer's solution, and isotonic sodium chloride solution. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable oil-in-water microemulsion in which the active ingredient is dissolved in the oil phase. For example, the active ingredient may be dissolved in a mixture of soybean oil and lecithin. The oil solution is then added to a mixture of water and glycerin and processed to form a microemulsion. The injectable solution or microemulsion can be infused into the subject's bloodstream via local bolus injection. Alternatively, solutions and microemulsions are preferably administered in a manner that maintains a constant, cyclical concentration of the compounds of the present disclosure. To maintain such a constant concentration, a continuous intravenous administration device can be used. An example of such a device is the Deltec CADD-PLUS™ 5400 intravenous infusion pump.

[0109] The pharmaceutical compositions may be in the form of sterile injectable aqueous or oily suspensions for intramuscular and subcutaneous administration. Such suspensions can be prepared using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents as described above according to known techniques. Sterile injectable preparations may also be sterile injectable solutions or suspensions prepared in non-toxic, gastrointestinal-acceptable diluents or solvents, such as solutions prepared in 1,3-butanediol. Sterile fixed oils are also conveniently used as solvents or suspending media. For this purpose, any suitable fixed oil, including synthetic monoglycerides or diglycerides, can be used. Fatty acids, such as oleic acids, can also be used to prepare injectables.

[0187] Analysis of drug loading in ADC stock solutions ADCs are antibody-linked drugs whose treatment mechanism is to deliver toxin molecules to cells via antibody targeting, resulting in cell death. The drug loading plays a crucial role in efficacy.

[0188] 1. UV-Vis calculation method The drug loading of the ADC stock solution was measured by ultraviolet light.

[0189] Experimental Method The cuvettes containing the sodium succinate buffer solution were placed in the reference absorption cell and the sample measurement absorption cell, respectively, and after subtracting the solvent blank, the cuvette containing the sample solution was placed in the sample measurement absorption cell, and the absorbance at 280 nm and 370 nm was measured.

[0190] Result calculation The loading amount of the ADC stock solution was measured by ultraviolet spectrophotometry (instrument used: Thermo nanodrop 2000 ultraviolet spectrophotometer). The principle is that the total absorbance value of the ADC stock solution at a certain wavelength is equal to the cumulative absorbance value of the cytotoxic drug and monoclonal antibody at that wavelength, i.e., (1)A 280 nm =ε mab-280 bC mab +ε Drug-280 bC Drug ε Drug-280 : The drug has an average molar extinction coefficient of 5100 at 280 nm, C Drug : drug concentration, ε mab-280 : The average molar extinction coefficient at 280 nm of the monoclonal antibody stock solution is 214600, C mab : Concentration of monoclonal antibody stock solution, b: The optical path length is 1 cm.

[0191] Similarly, the total absorbance equation for the sample at 370 nm can be obtained, i.e., (2)A 370 nm =ε mab-370 bC mab +ε Drug-370 bC Drug ε Drug-370 : The drug has an average molar extinction coefficient of 19000 at 370 nm, C Drug : drug concentration, ε mab-370 : The extinction coefficient of the monoclonal antibody stock solution at 370 nm is 0, C mab : Concentration of monoclonal antibody stock solution, b: The optical path length is 1 cm.

[0192] Using equations (1) and (2), the drug loading can be calculated using the extinction coefficients and concentration data for the monoclonal antibody and drug at the two detection wavelengths. Drug loading dose = C Drug / Cmab .

[0193] 2. Calculation method based on CE-SDS Reagents and equipment SDS-MW Analysis Kit: Manufactured by Beckman, product number 390953. This reagent kit includes SDS-MW separation gel buffer, SDS-MW sample buffer, acidic wash solution (0.1 mol / L hydrochloric acid solution), basic wash solution (0.1 mol sodium hydroxide solution), and internal standard (10 kDa). The SDS reagent kit (product number BSYK018) manufactured by Beijing Bosiya Biochemical Technology Research Institute may also be used. This reagent kit includes CE-SDS gel buffer and CE-SDS sample buffer. Alkylation solution (0.25 mol iodoacetamide solution): Weigh out approximately 0.046 g of iodoacetamide and add 1 mL of ultrapure water to dissolve. Mix uniformly and store at 2-8 °C, protected from light, for 7 days. Capillary electrophoresis apparatus: SCIEX PA800plus. Capillary: An uncoated fused silica capillary (inner diameter 50 μm) was cut to a total length of 30.2 cm, with an effective separation length of 20 cm for the high-resolution method.

[0194] Preparation of sample solution The test sample was diluted to 1 mg / mL with SDS sample buffer. 95 μL of the test sample solution (1 mg / mL) was taken, and 5 μL of 0.8 mol / L iodoacetamide solution was added and swirled to mix uniformly. 95 μL of the blank control solution was taken, and 5 μL of 0.8 mol / L iodoacetamide solution was added and swirled to mix uniformly. 75 μL of each sample tube was then removed and placed in a sample vial for immediate analysis.

[0195] Measurement method 1) Capillary pretreatment: Wash with 0.1 mol / L sodium hydroxide solution at 60 psi for 3 minutes, then with 0.1 mol / L hydrochloric acid solution at 60 psi for 2 minutes, and finally with pure water at 70 psi for 1 minute. This should be done before each run. 2) Pre-filling the capillary: Wash with SDS separation gel buffer at 50 psi for 15 minutes. This should be done before each run. Sample injection: 10 kV reversed-phase polarity electric injection, sample was reduced and injected for 20 seconds. Separation: Operated at 15 kV for 40 minutes, reversed phase polarity. Sample chamber temperature: 18-25°C. Capillary temperature: 18-25°C.

[0196] Results analysis Since all sulfhydryl groups liberated from the released disulfide bonds in the antibody were conjugated to the corresponding drug, the data were analyzed using Beckman software, and the ratio of the calibrated peak areas of the heavy chain, non-glycosylated heavy chain, and light chain to the total calibrated peak area was calculated. The weighted average value of the ADC was finally calculated using the formula: DAR = [4 × heavy chain (H) peak area + 2 × hapten (HL) peak area + 4 × double chain (HH) peak area + 2 × heavy-heavy-light chain (HHL) peak area] / [heavy chain (H) peak area / 2 + hapten (HL) peak area / 2 + double chain (HH) peak area + heavy-heavy-light chain (HHL) peak area + complete antibody peak area].

[0197] The activity of the antibody of the present disclosure will be verified by biochemical test methods below.

[0198] Test Example 1: Antibody protein level binding experiment hTROP-2 protein was diluted to 1 μg / mL in pH 7.4 PBS (Genbyou Bioscience, B320) buffer and added to a 96-well microplate at a volume of 100 μL per well and incubated overnight at 4°C. After discarding the liquid, 300 μL of 5% nonfat milk (BD, 232100) diluted in PBS was added to each well for blocking and incubation at 37°C for 2 hours. After discarding the blocking solution, the plate was washed three times with PBST buffer (pH 7.4 PBS containing 0.1% Tween-20). Then, 100 μL of the gradient diluted antibody solution was added to each well and incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. After incubation, the plate was washed three times with PBST, and 100 μL of mouse anti-human IgG (H+L) (Jackson ImmunoResearch, 209-035-088, diluted 1:8000) was added to each well and incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. After washing the plate three times with PBST, 100 μL of TMB color developing substrate (KPL, 5120-0077) was added to each well and incubated at room temperature for 10-15 minutes. The reaction was terminated by adding 50 μL of 1 M H2SO4 to each well. The absorbance value at 450 nm was read using a microplate reader, and the binding curve between the antibody and antigen was fitted using software to calculate the EC 50 The binding activity between the antibody and the protein is shown in Table 2.

[0199] [Table 2] The results show that the PD3 antibody in the present application has relatively high binding activity to the hTROP-2 protein.

[0200] Test Example 2: Antibody cell-level binding experiment CHOK1 cells stably transfected with TROP-2 were cultured at 1 × 10 in FACS buffer (2% fetal bovine serum (Gibco, 10099141) pH 7.4 PBS (Sigma, P4417-100TAB)). 6A cell suspension was prepared at 100 μL / well in a 96-well round-bottom plate. After centrifuging and removing the supernatant, 50 μL / well of the target antibody diluted in FACS buffer was added at different concentrations and incubated in a refrigerator at 4°C for 1 hour, protected from light. After washing three times with FACS buffer at 300 g, a working concentration of Alexa Fluor 488 sheep anti-human IgG (H+L) (Invitrogen, A-11013) was added and incubated in a refrigerator at 4°C for 40 minutes, protected from light. After washing three times with FACS buffer at 300 g, the geometric mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) was measured using a BD FACSCanto II flow cytometer to determine the binding EC of the antibody to stably transfected cells expressing TROP-2. 50 The binding activity between the antibody and the cells is shown in FIG. 1 and Table 3.

[0201] [Table 3] The results show that the PD3 antibody in this application has relatively high binding activity to cells expressing TROP-2 protein.

[0202] Test Example 3: Antibody endocytosis experiment The purpose of this experiment was to indirectly reflect the endocytic status of anti-TROP-2 antibodies based on the cell killing of activated DT3C protein when it entered cells. 50 and E max The in vitro endocytic activity of the antibody was evaluated by the following method.

[0203] DT3C is a recombinantly expressed fusion protein composed of diphtheria toxin fragment A (toxin portion only) and group G streptococcus 3C fragment (IgG binding portion). This protein has high affinity for the IgG portion of antibodies, and when endocytosis occurs in antibodies, it enters cells together with the antibody and, under the influence of intracellular furin, releases the toxic DT. DT can inhibit the activity of EF2-ADP-ribosylation, blocking the protein translation process and ultimately causing cell death. DT3C that does not enter cells does not have cell-killing activity. The endocytosis activity of antibodies was evaluated based on the cell-killing status.

[0204] Prepare a cell suspension in fresh cell culture medium containing 20% ​​low-IgG FBS to a cell density of 2 × 10 4 The cells / mL were added to cell culture plates at 50 μL per well and incubated at 37°C in 5% carbon dioxide for 16 hours. DT3C was prepared at a 4x concentration in serum-free medium and filtered through a 0.22 μm microfilter to obtain a sterile solution. Antibody was prepared at a 4x concentration in serum-free medium. 80 μL of DT3C and 80 μL of antibody were mixed uniformly at a 1:1 volume, left at room temperature, and incubated for 30 minutes. 50 μL of the diluted antibody-DT3C mixture was added to 50 μL of cells and incubated in an incubator for 3 days. 50 μL of CTG was added to each well, and the mixture was incubated at room temperature in the dark for 10 minutes. Chemiluminescence was read using a Victor3. The endocytosis activity of the antibodies is shown in Table 4.

[0205] [Table 4] The results show that the PD3 antibody in this application has relatively high endocytosis efficiency.

[0206] Test Example 4: Measurement of antibody affinity The affinity of antibodies for TROP-2 was detected using a capture antibody. The capture antibody was bound to a Protein A (Cat. # 29127556, GE) biosensor chip conjugated with an anti-human IgG antibody (Cat. # BR-1008-39, Lot. # 10260416, GE). The antigen hTROP-2 was then flowed over the chip surface, and the binding and dissociation curves were obtained by detecting the response signal in real time using a Biacore T200 instrument. After each cycle of dissociation was completed, the chip was regenerated by washing with regeneration buffer Glycine 1.5 (Cat. # BR100354, GE) or 3 M MgCl2 (from the Human Antibody Capture Kit, Cat. # BR100839, GE). After the experiment was completed, the data was fitted with the (1:1) Langmuir model using GE Biacore T200 Evaluation version 3.0 software to obtain affinity values. The affinity between antibodies and proteins is shown in Table 5.

[0207] [Table 5] The results show that the affinity of the PD3 antibody in this application to hTROP-2 is relatively high.

Colo205(++) was purchased from the Chinese Academy of Sciences Cell Bank, product number: TCHu102. DMS53(++) was purchased from ATCC, product number: CRL-2062. TM SK-OV-3(+) was purchased from ATCC, product number: HTB-77. CHO-K1(-) was purchased from ATCC, product number: CCL-61. TMThe "+" indicates the level of TROP-2 expression in the cells, with a larger "+" indicating a higher level of TROP-2 expression. A "-" indicates no TROP-2 expression.

[0209] A cell suspension was prepared in fresh cell culture medium containing 10% FBS at a density of 3703 cells / mL. 135 μL per well was added to a 96-well cell culture plate and incubated at 37°C under 5% carbon dioxide for 16 hours. ADC samples were prepared in PBS to a concentration of 5 μM. This initial concentration was diluted five-fold with PBS to give eight different concentrations. 15 μL of the above ADC solution was added to each well. The plates were incubated at 37°C under 5% carbon dioxide for 6 days. 70 μL of CTG was added to each well, and the plates were incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes in the dark. Chemiluminescence was measured using a Victor3 scanner, and data were analyzed using GraphPad Prism software.

[0210] The results showed that ADC-1 had a relatively strong cell-killing effect, and the killing effect was positively correlated with the expression level of TROP-2 on the surface of tumor cells. [Table 6-1] A second parallel comparative experiment was conducted using the above method, and the following results were obtained. [Table 6-2]

[0211] Test Example 6: Bystander killing activity experiment BxPC3 (human pancreatic cancer cells, ATCC, CRL-1687) and MiaPaCa2 cells (human pancreatic cancer cells, biocytogen, B-HCL-014) were cultured in RPMI1640 + 10% FBS and DMEM / high glucose + 10% FBS, respectively. The cells were digested with pancreatin, neutralized with fresh medium, centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 3 minutes, the supernatant was discarded, and the cells were resuspended in RPMI1640 + 10% FBS. After cell counting, the BxPC3 cell density was adjusted to 6 × 10 4The cell density of MiaPaCa2-luc was adjusted to 1.5 × 10 cells / mL. 4 The concentration was adjusted to cells / mL. 500 μL of BxPC3 cells and 500 μL of MiaPaCa2-luc cells were added to each well of plate 1 of a 12-well plate. 500 μL of MiaPaCa2-luc cells and 500 μL of RPMI1640 medium containing 10% FBS serum were added to plate 2 of a 12-well plate. The plates were cultured at 37°C under 5% carbon dioxide for 24 hours.

[0212] ADC samples were prepared at a 40x concentration (0.2 μM) in a neutral solution. 25 μL of each sample was added to the corresponding wells of a 12-well plate. A solvent control group was also included. The cells were cultured for 6 days at 37°C under 5% carbon dioxide. The cells in the 12-well plate were digested with pancreatin, neutralized with fresh medium, centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 3 minutes, discarded the supernatant, and resuspended in 1 mL of FACS buffer (PBS + 2.5% FBS). 20 μL of cells were taken, 20 μL of trypan blue was added, and counted. The cells in plate 1 were centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 3 minutes, discarded the supernatant, and resuspended in 100 μL of FACS buffer. 2 μL of TROP-2 (EGP-1) monoclonal antibody (MR54) was added and incubated on ice for 30 minutes. The cells were centrifuged at 2000 rpm at 4°C for 1 minute, the supernatant was discarded, and 150 μL of FACS buffer was added to resuspend the cells. Detection was performed using BD FACSVerse. Data was analyzed using Flowjo 7.6. See Figure 2 for the results of the bystander killing experiment.

[0213] The results show that the ADC-1 in this disclosure has a clear bystander killing effect: although the ADC does not kill TROP-2-negative MiaPaCa2 cells, after mixing TROP-2-expressing BxPC3 cells with negative MiaPaCa2 cells, ADC-1 also has a killing effect on the TROP-2-negative cells.
