[0001] Cross-references to related applications This application claims the benefit and priority of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 990,099, filed on 16 March 2020, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety for all purposes. Field of Invention The present invention relates, as a whole, to a method for enhancing recombinant adeno-associated virus vector (rAAV) yield, and more specifically, to the use of compounds for enhancing rAAV yield. [Background technology]

[0002] background Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are non-pathogenic, replication-defective parvoviruses. Recombinant AAV vectors (rAAVs) possess numerous unique properties that make them attractive as vectors for gene therapy. In particular, rAAV vectors can deliver therapeutic genes to both dividing and non-dividing cells, and these genes can persist for extended periods without being integrated into the genome of the targeted cells. Given the widespread therapeutic applications of rAAVs, there is a continuing need for improved rAAV vector production methods, including methods for achieving high-titer rAAV vector yields. Previous attempts to improve the production of various viral vectors have included the use of cell culture additives, such as metals, trace supplements, and salts (see, for example, Williams, J. Gen. Virol., 9(3): 251-5 (1970), Weinbauer et al., Limnology and Oceanography, 54(3): 774-784 (2009), Yang et al., Hepatology, 48(5): 1396-403 (2008), and U.S. Publication No. 20150353899).

[0127] V. adeno-associated virus Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are small, non-enveloped, dodecahedral viruses belonging to the genus Dependparvovirus and the family Parvoviridae. AAVs have a single-stranded linear DNA genome of approximately 4.7 kb. AAVs include numerous serologically distinguishable types, including over 100 serotypes derived from non-human primates, as well as serotypes AAV-1 to AAV-12 (see, e.g., Srivastava, J. Cell Biochem., 105(1): 17-24 (2008), and Gao et al., J. Virol., 78(12), 6381-6388 (2004)). Any AAV type can be used in the methods of the present invention. AAVs can infect both dividing and dormant cells of several tissue types, and different AAV serotypes exhibit different histotropies. AAVs replicate non-autonomously and have a life cycle with an incubation period and an infectious period. During the incubation period, after a cell is infected with AAV, the AAV is site-specifically integrated into the host genome as a provirus. The infection phase does not occur unless a helper virus (e.g., adenovirus (AV) or herpes simplex virus) that enables AAV replication also infects the cell.

[0128] The wild-type AAV genome contains two 145-nucleotide terminal inversion sequences (ITRs) that contain signal sequences directing AAV replication, genomic capsid inclusion, and integration. In addition to the ITRs, three AAV promoters, p5, p19, and p40, drive the expression of two open reading frames encoding rep and cap genes. The two rep promoters, combined with differential splicing of a single AAV intron, result in the production of four rep proteins (Rep78, Rep68, Rep52, and Rep40) from the rep gene. These rep proteins are responsible for genomic replication. The cap gene is expressed from the p40 promoter and encodes three capsid proteins (VP1, VP2, and VP3), which are splice variants of the Cap gene. These proteins form the capsid of the AAV particle.

[0129] Because cis-acting signals for replication, capsid inclusion, and integration are contained within the ITR, some or all of the 4.3kb internal genome can be replaced with foreign DNA, such as an expression cassette for the foreign protein of interest. In this case, the rep and cap proteins (e.g., AAV rep and cap proteins) are provided trans, for example, on a plasmid. To produce an AAV vector, a host cell line that allows AAV replication should typically express the rep and cap genes, the ITR flanking expression cassette, and helper functions provided by helper viruses, such as adenovirus (AV) genes E1a, E1b55K, E2a, E4orf6, and VA (Weitzman et al., Adeno-associated virus biology. Adeno-Associated Virus: Methods and Protocols, pp. 1-23, 2011). AAV vector production may also result in the production of helper virus particles that must be removed or inactivated before use of the AAV vector in some embodiments. Numerous cell types, including HEK293 cells, COS cells, HeLa cells, BHK cells, Vero cells, and insect cells, are suitable for producing AAV vectors (see, for example, U.S. Patents 6,156,303, 5,387,484, 5,741,683, 5,691,176, 5,688,676, 8,163,543, U.S. Publication 20020081721, PCT Publications WO00 / 47757, WO00 / 24916, and WO96 / 17947). AAV vectors are typically produced in these cell types by a single plasmid containing an ITR-facing expression cassette, as well as one or more additional plasmids providing additional AAV and helper virus genes. In certain embodiments, the AAV vector is produced in these cell types by a plasmid containing an ITR-adjacent expression cassette and the AAV viral gene, as well as one or more additional plasmids providing helper viral genes.

[0130] Any serotype of AAV can be used in this invention. Similarly, any AV type can be used, and those skilled in the art can identify the AAV and AV type suitable for the production of their desired recombinant AAV vector (rAAV). AAV and AV particles can be purified, for example, by affinity chromatography, iodixanol gradient, or CsCl gradient.

[0131] The wild-type AAV genome is single-stranded DNA and measures 4.7 kb. AAV vectors may have single-stranded genomes larger or smaller than 4.7 kb, including an oversized genome of approximately 5.2 kb or a small genome of about 3.0 kb. Furthermore, vector genomes may be substantially self-complementary, such that the genome within the virus is substantially double-stranded. AAV vectors containing all types of genomes are suitable for use in the methods of the present invention.

[0132] As discussed above, AAV requires co-infection with a helper virus to enter the infectious phase of its life cycle. Examples of helper viruses include adenoviruses (AV) and herpes simplex viruses (HSV), and systems exist for producing AAV in insect cells using baculoviruses. It has also been proposed that papillomaviruses can provide helper function for AAV (see, for example, Hermonat et al., Molecular Therapy 9, S289-S290 (2004)). Any virus capable of generating and enabling AAV replication can be considered a helper virus. AV is a non-enveloped nuclear DNA virus with a double-stranded DNA genome of approximately 36 kb. AV provides the E1a, E1b55K, E2a, E4orf6, and VA genes, which can rescue latent AAV proviruses in cells by enabling AAV replication and capsid inclusion. HSVs are a family of viruses in which a relatively large double-stranded linear DNA genome is capsid-encapsulated in an icosahedral capsid enclosed in a lipid bilayer envelope. HSVs are infectious and highly contagious. The following HSV-1 replication proteins: helicase / primase complexes (UL5, UL8, and UL52) and the DNA-binding protein ICP8 encoded by the UL29 gene were identified as typically required for HSV-1 helper function for AAV replication, while other proteins enhanced helper function.

[0133] VI. Production of rAAV The present invention comprises the production of recombinant adeno-associated virus vectors (rAAV) from host cells using any preferred method known in the art. As used herein, the term “host cell” means any one or more cells capable of producing rAAV. In some embodiments, the host cell is a mammalian cell, e.g., HeLa cells, COS cells, HEK293 cells, A549 cells, BHK cells, or Vero cells. In other embodiments, the host cell is an insect cell, e.g., Sf9 cells, Sf-21 cells, Tn-368 cells, or BTI-Tn-5B1-4 (High-Five) cells. Unless otherwise indicated, the terms “cell” or “cell line” are understood to include modified or manipulated variants of the indicated cell or cell line.

[0134] As described above, to enable rAAV production, the host cell should typically include the terminal inversion sequence (ITR) of AAV (which may be, for example, adjacent to the heterologous nucleotide sequence of interest), AAV rep and cap gene functions, and additional helper functions. These can be provided to the host cell using any number of plasmids or vectors. Additional helper functions can be provided, for example, by adenovirus (AV) infection, by a plasmid containing all the necessary AV helper function genes, or by a virus such as HSV or baculovirus. Any genes, gene functions, or other genetic material required for rAAV production by the host cell can, for example, be transiently present in the host cell or stably inserted into the host cell genome. In some embodiments, the host cell is a producing cell containing AAV rep and cap gene functions and an rAAV vector genome. In some embodiments, the host cell is a packaging cell containing AAV rep and cap gene functions, which, at the time of production, are provided by a separate recombinant virus for the rAAV vector genome. Suitable rAAV production methods for use in conjunction with the method of the present invention include those disclosed in Clark et al., Human Gene Therapy, Vol. 6: pp. 1329-1341 (1995), Martin et al., Human Gene Therapy Methods, Vol. 24: pp. 253-269 (2013), Thorne et al., Human Gene Therapy, Vol. 20: pp. 707-714 (2009), Fraser Wright, Human Gene Therapy, Vol. 20: pp. 698-706 (2009), and Virag et al., Human Gene Therapy, Vol. 20: pp. 807-817 (2009).

[0135] VII. Purification of rAAV particles In some embodiments of the present invention, rAAV particles are used by host cells to obtain compounds described herein (e.g., compounds of formula (I), (IA), (IB), (II), (III), or (IV)), or vitamin B (e.g., vitamin B2, vitamin B7, vitamin B9, and vitamin B 12rAAV particles are collected and / or purified from host cells after contact with a solution containing rAAV or a salt thereof. rAAV particles can be obtained from host cells by lysing them. Lysis of host cells can be achieved by chemically or enzymatically treating the cells to release infectious viral particles. These methods include the use of nucleases such as benzonase or DNAse, proteases such as trypsin, or detergents or surfactants. Physical disruption such as homogenization or grinding, pressurization by a microfluidizer pressure cell, or freeze-thaw cycles may also be used. In certain embodiments, lysates derived from manipulated rAAV packaging and / or producing cells can be used to collect rAAV particles. Alternatively, the supernatant may be collected from host cells without requiring cell lysis. As used herein, “total rAAV” refers to the total rAAV produced by host cells, and “secreted rAAV” refers to rAAV that can be collected from host cells without requiring cell lysis.

[0136] After recovering the rAAV particles, it may be desirable to purify the sample containing the rAAV particles, for example, to remove cell debris resulting from cell lysis. Methods for minimal purification of AAV particles are known in the art. Two exemplary purification methods are density gradient purification based on cesium chloride (CsCl) and iodixanol. Both methods are described in Strobel et al., Human Gene Therapy Methods, Vol. 26 (No. 4): pp. 147-157 (2015). Minimal purification can also be achieved, for example, using affinity chromatography with AVB Sepharose affinity resin (GE Healthcare Bio-Sciences AB, Uppsala, Sweden). A method for AAV purification using AVB Sepharose affinity resin is described, for example, in Wang et al., Mol Ther Methods Clin Dev., Vol. 2: pp. 15040 (2015). After purification, the rAAV particles can be filtered and stored at -60°C or below. VIII. Quantification of rAAV particles

[0137] The quantification of rAAV particles is complicated by the fact that AAV infection does not result in in vitro cytopathic effects, and therefore plaque assays cannot be used to determine infectivity titers. However, rAAV particles can be quantified using several methods, including quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) (Clark et al., Hum. Gene Ther., Vol. 10, pp. 1031-1039 (1999)), dot blot hybridization (Samulski et al., J. Virol., Vol. 63, pp. 3822-3828 (1989)), and by the optical density of highly purified vector preparations (Sommer et al., Mol. Ther., Vol. 7, pp. 122-128 (2003)). DNase-resistant particles (DRPs) can be quantified by real-time quantitative gene expression reduction polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) (DRP-qPCR) in a thermocycler (e.g., iCycler iQ 96-well block format thermocycler (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA)). Samples containing rAAV particles are incubated at 37°C for 60 minutes in the presence of DNase I (100 U / ml; Promega, Madison, WI), followed by digestion with proteinase K (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) (10 U / mL) at 50°C for 60 minutes, and then denatured at 95°C for 30 minutes. The primer-probe set used should be specific to the non-native portion of the rAAV vector genome, e.g., the poly(A) sequence of the protein of interest. PCR products can be amplified using any suitable set of cycling parameters based on the length and composition of the primers, probes, and amplified sequence. An alternative protocol is disclosed, for example, in Lock et al., Human Gene Therapy Methods, Vol. 25 (No. 2): pp. 115-125 (2014).

[0138] Throughout this specification, where apparatus, devices, and systems are described as having, including, or comprising certain components, or where processes and methods are described as having, including, or comprising certain steps, it is intended that, in addition, there exist apparatus, devices, and systems of the present invention that are essentially composed of or comprise the listed components, and processes and methods of the present invention that are essentially composed of or comprise the listed processes.

[0139] The implementation of the present invention is presented herein for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the invention in any way, and will be better understood from the examples described herein. [Examples]

[0140] (Example 1: Effects of different concentrations of niacinamide on rAAV production in HeLa cells) In this example, the effects of various concentrations of niacinamide, ranging from 0.1 mM to 40 mM, on rAAV production were tested in various HeLa-producing cell lines. The experiment involved using 3 mL of working volume cell culture medium and 0.2 × 10⁶ niacinamide. 6 The analysis was performed in a 24-deep-well plate culture system at a seeding density of 100 cells and an Ad5 infection multiplicity (MOI) of 200 vp / cell. Figure 1 shows a schematic graph of normalized volume rAAV titers for various clade E and F rAAVs produced from HeLa-producing cells at varying niacinamide concentrations (0.1 mM–40 mM). Increases in rAAV titers were observed between 0.1 mM and 10 mM, with the most significant increases observed between 1 mM and 10 mM. The capsid serotypes included in this analysis were AAV8, AAV9, rh10, and hu37.

[0141] Figure 2 shows a graph of the normalized volume-based rAAV titer (GC / mL) for varying niacinamide concentrations, as well as the predicted maximum value when using a cubic polynomial fit of the data points. A significant increase in rAAV titer was observed between 1 mM and 10 mM, with a predicted maximum value at 5 mM.

[0142] (Example 2: Effect of container scaling on rAAV production) In this example, the effect of scales using two common containers containing niacinamide (a 3 mL deep well ("24-DW") and a 100 mL shaking flask ("Flask")) on rAAV production was tested. The analysis was performed using a HeLa-producing cell line capable of producing clade E rAAV (AAVrh10-FIX), which encodes a factor IX transgene. Figure 3 shows a bar graph illustrating rAAV titer (GC / mL) at varying niacinamide concentrations at different scales. A two-way ANOVA considering factors of niacinamide, scale, and their interactions showed a statistically significant effect only from niacinamide (p<0.0001). Factors of scale and interaction were not significant (p=0.3915 and p=0.1353, respectively). Dunnett's test was performed, which showed significance at all concentrations when scale was removed as a factor.

[0143] (Example 3: Effect of niacinamide on rAAV production in clade E HeLa clones) Four different HeLa clones were tested using the conditions described in Example 1. Figures 4A–D show the rAAV titer (GC / mL) per varying niacinamide concentration for clone 1 (AAVrh10-FIX) follow-up supernatant, clone 2 (AAV8-G6Pase) supernatant, clone 3 (AAV8-G6Pase) broad range without supplement, and clone 4 (AAVhu37-FVIII) broad range suspension (i.e., Triton-dissolved samples), respectively. An increase in titer was observed in all four clones upon addition of niacinamide between 1 mM and 5 mM.

[0144] (Example 4: Effect of niacinamide on rAAV production in clade F HeLa clones) In this example, the effect of 3 mM niacinamide on two HeLa-producing cell line clones expressing recombinant clade F AAV (AAV9-ATP7B), which encodes a truncated ATP7B transgene, was tested in a 2 L bioreactor. As shown in Figure 5, adding 3 mM niacinamide to the bioreactor resulted in a significant increase in titer in both clones.

[0145] (Example 5: Effects of different concentrations of niacinamide on rAAV production in HEK293 cells) In this example, the effects of various niacinamide concentrations ranging from 0.03 mM to 30 mM on rAAV production were tested in HEK293 cells. The experiment involved 1.3 × 10⁶ cells. 6 ~2.0×10 6 Transfection was performed in a 30 mL flask using a transfection density of 10 cells / mL. HEK293 cells used in this experiment were transfected with a plasmid that enables the production of rAAV8 (rAAV8-OTC), which encodes ornithine transcarbamylase. As shown in Figure 6, the addition of 0.3 mM and 3 mM niacinamide resulted in increased titer in HEK293 cells. Repeated trials on a 2 L bioreactor scale also showed increased titer in HEK293 cells with the addition of niacinamide (data not shown).

[0146] (Example 6: Effect of additional compounds on rAAV production in HEK293 cells) In this example, the effects of compounds other than niacinamide on rAAV production in HEK293 cells were tested. The compounds analyzed in this example included niacin, methyl nicotinate, myo-inositol, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine, choline, thiamine, glucosamine, caffeine, n-acetylglucosamine, and thymidine.

[0147] The experiment was performed in 24-deep-well plates using the same cells as described in Example 5, under similar transfection and culture conditions. The concentrations of each compound tested were 1 mM, 3 mM, and 9 mM. Among the compounds tested, niacin resulted in a 20% increase in titer at 1 mM, methyl nicotinate in a 42% increase at 3 mM, myo-inositol in an approximately 20% increase at 3 mM and 9 mM, while choline in a 65% increase at 3 mM. None of the other compounds tested provided a significant benefit to rAAV titer at any of the three concentrations tested.

[0148] This example demonstrates that while alternative compounds, including niacin, methyl nicotinate, myo-inositol, and choline, can boost rAAV titer, none offered the same level of benefit provided by niacinamide, which appeared to be substantially and remarkably superior to the other 11 compounds tested.
