[Technical Field]

[0001] Cross-reference of related applications This application claims the interests of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 237,355 filed on 26 August 2021, U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 214,525 filed on 24 June 2021, U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 186,489 filed on 10 May 2021, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 138,182 filed on 15 January 2021, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0002] Introduction The field of protein-small molecule conjugate therapy has evolved significantly and is offering many clinically beneficial drugs, with the expectation that more drugs will be available in the coming years. Protein-conjugate therapy can offer several advantages, such as specificity, functional diversity, and relatively low off-target activity, resulting in fewer side effects. [Overview of the project]

[0003] Camptothecins are a family of antitumor agents that share a common structural core i (Figure 1, Panel A). Due to their ability to inhibit the activity of DNA topoisomerase I, an intracellular enzyme essential for cell replication, several synthetic and semi-synthetic camptothecins have been used as small molecule cancer chemotherapy (e.g., topotecan and irinotecan). In contrast, more potent analogs such as SN-38(1) and exatecan(3) (Figure 1, Panel B) exhibit significant off-target toxicity that prevents their direct use to treat cancer. Targeted delivery of highly potent camptothecins to tumor tissue may offer a therapy that avoids its toxicity issues and exhibits better tolerability. This disclosure describes the preparation of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) containing camptothecin of general structure i (Figure 1, Panel A). In each conjugate, the selected cytotoxin is attached to an antibody (e.g., an mAb) by a cleavable linker linked to one of the common C20 alcohols, or by various chemical handles specific to a particular camptothecin analog (Figure 1).

[0004] This disclosure provides antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) structures comprising camptothecin or a camptothecin derivative linked to a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) via a linker. In addition, this disclosure also includes compounds and methods for generating such conjugates, as well as methods for using the conjugates.

[0104] In addition to the disclosures herein, in certain embodiments, the substituted group has one, two, three, or four substituents, one, two, or three substituents, one or two substituents, or one substituent.

[0105] It is understood that polymers obtained by defining substituents having further substituents on themselves (e.g., substituted aryls having substituted aryl groups as substituents, which themselves are substituted with substituted aryl groups and further substituted with substituted aryl groups) for all the substituted groups defined above are not intended to be included herein. In such cases, the maximum number of such substitutions is 3. For example, the sequential substitution of substituted aryl groups specifically intended herein is limited to substituted aryl-(substituted aryl)-substituted aryl.

[0106] Unless otherwise specified, the nomenclature of substituents not explicitly defined herein is achieved by naming the terminal portion of the functional group followed by adjacent functional groups toward the connection point. For example, the substituent "arylalkyloxycarbonyl" refers to the (aryl)-(alkyl)-OC(O)- group.

[0107] With respect to any of the groups disclosed herein that contain one or more substituents, it should be understood that such groups naturally do not contain any substitutions or substitution patterns that are sterically unfeasible and / or synthetically unfeasible. In addition, the compounds of this subject matter include all stereochemical isomers resulting from the substitutions of these compounds.

[0108] The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” means a salt that is acceptable for administration to a patient, e.g., a mammal (a salt having a counterion that has mammalian safety acceptable for a given drug regimen). Such salts may be derived from pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic or organic bases, and pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic or organic acids. “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a compound, the salt being derived from a variety of organic and inorganic counterions well known in the art, including, but not limited to, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, ammonium, tetraalkylammonium, etc., and, if the molecule contains basic functionality, salts of organic or inorganic acids such as hydrochloride, hydrobromide, formate, tartrate, besylate, mesylate, acetate, maleate, oxalate, etc.

[0109] The term "salt" refers to a compound formed when a proton of an acid is replaced by a cation, such as a metal cation or an organic cation. Where applicable, the salt is pharmaceutically acceptable, although this is not required for salts of intermediate compounds not intended for administration to patients. As an example, salts of the compounds of the present invention include those in which a conjugate base of an inorganic or organic acid is used as the anionic component of the salt, and the compound is protonated by the inorganic or organic acid to form a cation.

[0110] A "solvate" refers to a complex formed by a combination of solvent molecules and solute molecules or ions. The solvent can be an organic compound, an inorganic compound, or a mixture of both. Some examples of solvents, though not limited to them, include methanol, N,N-dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, dimethyl sulfoxide, and water. When the solvent is water, the solvate formed is a hydrate.

[0111] "Stereoisomers" refer to compounds that have the same atomic bonding but different atomic arrangements in space. Stereoiomers include cis-trans isomers, E and Z isomers, enantiomers, and diastereomers.

[0112] "Tautomers" refer to alternative molecular forms that differ only in the electron bonding of atoms and / or the position of protons, such as enol-keto and imine-enamine tautomers, or tautomer forms of heteroaryl groups containing the -N=C(H)-NH-ring atomic configuration, such as pyrazole, imidazole, benzimidazole, triazole, and tetrazole. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other tautomer ring atomic configurations are possible.

[0113] It should be understood that the term “or its salts, solvates, or stereoisomers” is intended to include all permutations of salts, solvates, and stereoisomers, such as solvates of pharmaceutically acceptable salts of stereoisomers of the compound in question.

[0114] "Pharmacologically effective dose" and "therapeutic dose" refer to the amount of a compound sufficient to treat one or more of a specific disorder or disease, or its symptoms, and / or to prevent the onset of that disease or disorder. With respect to tumorigenic proliferative disorders, the pharmaceutically effective dose or therapeutic dose includes, in particular, an amount sufficient to shrink the tumor or reduce the rate of tumor growth.

[0115] The term "patient" refers to both human and non-human subjects, particularly mammals.

[0116] As used herein, the terms “to treat” or “to treat” mean treating or treating a disease or medical condition in a patient, for example, a mammal (in particular human), and include (a) preventing the occurrence of a disease or medical condition, for example, prophylactic treatment of the subject; (b) mitigating a disease or medical condition, for example, eliminating or reversing the disease or medical condition in a patient; (c) suppressing a disease or medical condition, for example, by slowing or halting its progression in a patient; or (d) alleviating the symptoms of a disease or medical condition in a patient.

[0117] The terms “polypeptide,” “peptide,” and “protein” are used interchangeably herein to refer to polymeric forms of amino acids of any length. Unless otherwise indicated, “polypeptide,” “peptide,” and “protein” may include genetically encoded and unencoded amino acids, chemically or biochemically modified or derivatized amino acids, and polypeptides having a modified peptide backbone. The term includes fusion proteins, which include, but are not limited to, fusion proteins having heterologous amino acid sequences, fusions having heterologous and homologous leader sequences, proteins containing at least one N-terminal methionine residue (e.g., for facilitating production in recombinant host cells), immunotagged proteins, and the like. In certain embodiments, the polypeptide is an antibody.

[0118] "Natural amino acid sequence" or "parent amino acid sequence" are used interchangeably herein and refer to the amino acid sequence of the unmodified polypeptide that contains at least one modified amino acid residue.

[0119] The terms "amino acid analog" and "non-natural amino acid" may be used interchangeably and include amino acid-like compounds that are structurally and / or in shape similar to one or more amino acids commonly found in naturally occurring proteins (e.g., Ala or A, Cys or C, Asp or D, Glu or E, Phe or F, Gly or G, His or H, Ile or I, Lys or K, Leu or L, Met or M, Asn or N, Pro or P, Gln or Q, Arg or R, Ser or S, Thr or T, Val or V, Trp or W, Tyr or Y). Amino acid analogs also include natural amino acids with modified side chains or backbone. Amino acid analogs also include amino acid analogs that have the same stereochemistry as the naturally occurring D form, as well as the L form of amino acid analogs. In some cases, amino acid analogs share the backbone structure and / or side chain structure of one or more natural amino acids, the difference being one or more modifying groups in the molecule. Such modifications may include, but are not limited to, substitution of an atom (e.g., N) with a related atom (e.g., S), addition of a group (e.g., methyl or hydroxyl) or an atom (e.g., Cl or Br), deletion of a group, substitution of a covalent bond (e.g., changing a single bond to a double bond), or combinations thereof. For example, amino acid analogs may include α-hydroxy acids and α-amino acids. Examples of amino acid analogs, but are not limited to, sulfoalanine.

[0120] Terms such as “amino acid side chain” or “side chain of amino acids” may be used to refer to substituents attached to the α-carbon of an amino acid residue, including natural amino acids, unnatural amino acids, and amino acid analogs. Amino acid side chains may also include amino acid side chains described herein in the context of modified amino acids and / or conjugates.

[0121] The term "carbohydrate" may be used to refer to monomeric units and / or polymers of monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. The term "sugar" may be used to refer to smaller carbohydrates such as monosaccharides and disaccharides. The term "carbohydrate derivative" includes compounds in which one or more functional groups of the carbohydrate of interest are substituted (replaced by any convenient substituent), modified (converted to another group using any convenient chemical), or absent (e.g., removed or replaced by H). A variety of carbohydrates and carbohydrate derivatives are available and may be suitable for use in the compounds and conjugates of this subject.

[0122] The terms “glycoside” or “glycosyl” refer to a sugar molecule or group linked to a part via a glycosidic bond. For example, the part to which a glycoside is linked may be a cleavable linker as described herein. Glycosidic bonds can link a glycoside to another part via various types of bonds, such as, but not limited to, O-glycosidic bonds (O-glycosides), N-glycosidic bonds (glycosylamines), S-glycosidic bonds (thioglycosides), or C-glycosidic bonds (C-glycosides or C-glycosyls). In some cases, glycosides may be cleaved from the part to which they are linked by, for example, chemically mediated hydrolysis or enzymatically mediated hydrolysis.

[0123] The term "antibody" is used in its broadest sense and includes monoclonal antibodies (including full-length monoclonal antibodies), polyclonal antibodies, and multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), humanized antibodies, single-chain antibodies, chimeric antibodies, and antibody fragments (e.g., Fab fragments). Antibodies can bind to target antigens. (Janeway, C., Travers, P., Walport, M., Shlomchik (2001) Immuno Biology, 5th Ed., Garland Publishing, New York). Target antigens may have one or more binding sites, also called epitopes, that are recognized by complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) formed by one or more variable regions of the antibody.

[0124] The term "natural antibody" refers to an antibody in which the heavy and light chains have been produced and which is paired by the immune system of a multicellular organism. The spleen, lymph nodes, bone marrow, and serum are examples of tissues that produce natural antibodies. For example, antibodies produced by antibody-producing cells isolated from a first animal immunized with an antigen are natural antibodies.

[0125] The terms "humanized antibody" or "humanized immunoglobulin" refer to non-human (e.g., mouse or rabbit) antibodies that contain one or more amino acids (e.g., in the framework region, constant region, or CDR) that are substituted with correspondingly positioned amino acids from human antibodies. Generally, humanized antibodies produce a reduced immune response in the human host compared to the non-humanized version of the same antibody. Antibodies can be humanized using various techniques known in the art, including, for example, CDR grafting (EP239,400, PCT Publication No. WO91 / 09967, U.S. Patent Nos. 5,225,539, 5,530,101, and 5,585,089), veneering or resurfacing (EP592,106, EP519,596, Padlan, Molecular Immunology 28(4 / 5):489-498 (1991), Studnicka et al., Protein Engineering 7(6):805-814 (1994), Roguska et al., PNAS 91:969-973 (1994)), and chain shuffling (U.S. Patent No. 5,565,332). In certain embodiments, framework substitutions are identified by modeling the interaction between CDRs and framework residues to identify framework residues important for antigen binding and sequence comparison, and to identify abnormal framework residues at specific positions (see, for example, U.S. Patent No. 5,585,089, Riechmann et al., Nature 332:323 (1988)). Additional methods for humanizing antibodies intended for use in the present invention are described in U.S. Patents No. 5,750,078, No. 5,502,167, No. 5,705,154, No. 5,770,403, No. 5,698,417, No. 5,693,493, No. 5,558,864, No. 4,935,496, and No. 4,816,567, as well as PCT Publications WO98 / 45331 and WO98 / 45332. In certain embodiments, the rabbit antibody of the subject may be humanized according to the methods described in US2004 / 0086979 and US2005 / 0033031.Therefore, the antibodies described above can be humanized using methods well known in the art.

[0126] The term "chimeric antibody" refers to an antibody typically constructed through genetic engineering, in which the light and heavy chain genes are derived from the variable and constant regions of antibodies belonging to different species. For example, the variable segment of a gene from a mouse monoclonal antibody may bind to human constant segments such as gamma 1 and gamma 3. An example of a therapeutic chimeric antibody is a hybrid protein composed of a variable domain or antigen-binding domain derived from a mouse antibody and a constant domain or effector domain derived from a human antibody, although domains from other mammalian species may also be used.

[0127] The immunoglobulin light chain or heavy chain variable region of an immunoglobulin polypeptide consists of a framework region (FR) interrupted by three hypervariable regions, also called "complementarity-determining regions" or "CDRs." The extent of the framework region and CDRs is defined (see "Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest," E. Kabat et al., USD Department of Health and Human Services, 1991). The antibody framework region, which is the combined framework region of its constituent light and heavy chains, helps to locate and align the CDRs. The CDRs primarily contribute to the binding of the antigen to the epitope.

[0128] The "parent Ig polypeptide" is a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence lacking the aldehyde-tagged constant region described herein. The parent polypeptide may contain a natural sequence constant region, or it may contain a constant region having existing amino acid sequence modifications (such as additions, deletions, and / or substitutions).

[0129] As used herein, the term “isolated” means describing a compound of interest that is in an environment different from that in which it naturally occurs. “Isolated” means including a compound in a sample in which the compound of interest is substantially concentrated and / or partially or substantially purified.

[0130] As used herein, the term “substantially purified” means a compound that has been removed from its natural environment and contains at least 60%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, at least 98%, or more than 98% of other components associated with its natural origin.

[0131] The term "physiological conditions" means those conditions that are compatible with living cells, such as temperature, pH, salinity, and other primarily aqueous conditions that are compatible with living cells.

[0132] A “reactive partner” means a molecule or molecular part that specifically reacts with another reactive partner to produce a reaction product. An exemplary reactive partner comprises cysteine ​​or serine of a sulfatase motif and formylglycine-producing enzyme (FGE), which react to form a reaction product of a converted aldehyde tag containing formylglycine (fGly) instead of cysteine ​​or serine in the motif. Another exemplary reactive partner comprises an “aldehyde-reactive reactive partner” comprising the aldehyde (e.g., a reactive aldehyde group) of the fGly residue of the converted aldehyde tag, as well as an aldehyde-reactive group and the moiety of interest, which react to form a reaction product of a modified aldehyde-tagged polypeptide having the moiety of interest conjugated to the modified polypeptide via the fGly residue.

[0133] The "N-terminus" refers to the terminal amino acid residue of a polypeptide that has a free amine group, and the amine group in the non-N-terminal amino acid residue usually forms part of the covalent backbone of the polypeptide.

[0134] The "C-terminus" refers to the terminal amino acid residue of a polypeptide that has a free carboxyl group, and the carboxyl groups in non-C-terminal amino acid residues usually form part of the covalent backbone of the polypeptide.

[0135] When used in reference to polypeptides or the amino acid sequences of polypeptides, the term "internal region" refers to the region of the polypeptide that is neither N-terminus nor C-terminus.

[0136] Before further describing the present invention, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described and is therefore naturally subject to change. Furthermore, since the scope of the present invention is limited only by the appended claims, it should also be understood that the terms used herein are merely for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit them.

[0137] Where a range of values ​​is provided, unless the context explicitly indicates otherwise, each intervening value up to one-tenth of the lower limit between the upper and lower limits of that range, and any other stated or intervening values ​​within the stated range, are understood to be included within the present invention. The upper and lower limits of these smaller ranges may be independently included within the smaller ranges and, according to any specifically excluded boundaries within the stated range, are also included in this disclosure. Where a stated range includes one or both of the boundaries, ranges excluding either or both of the boundaries that they include are also included in the present invention.

Conversely, for brevity, various features of the Disclosure described in the context of a single embodiment may also be provided separately or in any preferred subcombination. All combinations of embodiments relating to the Invention are specifically encompassed by the Disclosure and are disclosed herein as if every possible combination were individually and explicitly disclosed to the extent that such combinations encompass the subject matter of the Invention, which is, for example, a stable compound (i.e., a compound that can be prepared, isolated, characterized, and tested for biological activity). In addition, all subcombinations of various embodiments and their elements (e.g., elements of chemical groups enumerated in embodiments describing such variables) are also specifically encompassed by the Disclosure and are disclosed herein as if every possible such subcombination were individually and explicitly disclosed herein.

[0139] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs. Any methods and materials similar to or equivalent to those described herein may also be used in the implementation or testing of the present invention, but preferred methods and materials are described herein. All publications referenced herein are incorporated herein by reference to disclose and explain methods and / or materials relating to the cited publications.

[0140] It should be noted that, as used herein and in the appended claims, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" refer to multiple subjects unless the context explicitly indicates otherwise. It should also be noted that claims may be written to exclude any optional elements.

Conversely, for brevity, various features of the present disclosure described in the context of a single embodiment may also be provided separately or in any preferred subcombination.

[0142] The publications discussed herein were made available solely for their disclosure prior to the filing date of this application. Nothing herein should be construed as acknowledging that the present invention does not have prior rights to such disclosure by prior art. Furthermore, the dates of the publications provided may differ from the actual publication dates which may need to be independently verified. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0143] This disclosure provides antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) structures comprising camptothecin or a camptothecin derivative linked to a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) via a linker. This disclosure also includes compounds and methods for generating such conjugates, as well as methods for using the conjugates.

[0144] Antibody-drug conjugates This disclosure provides conjugates, such as antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). “Conjugate” means a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) covalently bound to one or more other parts (e.g., a drug or active agent). For example, an antibody-drug conjugate according to this disclosure comprises one or more drugs or active agents covalently bound to an antibody. In certain embodiments, the polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) and one or more drugs or active agents are linked to one or more functional groups and covalent bonds. For example, one or more functional groups and covalent bonds may include cleavable linkers as described herein.

[0145] In certain embodiments, the conjugate is a polypeptide conjugate comprising a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) conjugated to one or more other parts. In certain embodiments, the one or more parts conjugated to the polypeptide may, independently and without limitation, be any of various parts for a variety of purposes, such as a drug, an active agent, a detectable label, a water-soluble polymer, or a part for immobilizing the polypeptide onto a membrane or surface. In certain embodiments, the conjugate is a drug conjugate, where the polypeptide is an antibody, and therefore provides an antibody-drug conjugate. For example, the conjugate may be a drug conjugate in which the polypeptide is conjugated to one or more drugs or active agents. In certain embodiments, the drug or active agent is camptothecin or a camptothecin derivative. Various types of camptothecin or camptothecin derivatives may be used in the conjugate, as described in more detail below.

[0146] One or more drugs or active agents can be conjugated to a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) at any desired site of the polypeptide. Therefore, this disclosure provides polypeptides having a drug or active agent conjugated, for example, at or near the C-terminus of the polypeptide. Other examples include polypeptides having a drug or active agent conjugated at or near the N-terminus of the polypeptide. Examples also include polypeptides having a drug or active agent conjugated at a site between the C-terminus and N-terminus of the polypeptide (e.g., an internal site of the polypeptide). The above combinations are also possible when the polypeptide is conjugated with two or more drugs or active agents.

[0147] In certain embodiments, the conjugates of the Disclosure comprise one or more drugs or active agents conjugated to amino acid residues of a polypeptide at the α-carbon of an amino acid residue. In other words, the conjugate comprises a polypeptide in which the side chains of one or more amino acid residues in the polypeptide are modified and connected to one or more drugs or active agents (e.g., via a linker as described herein). For example, the conjugate comprises a polypeptide in which the α-carbon of one or more amino acid residues in the polypeptide is modified and connected to one or more drugs or active agents (e.g., via a linker as described herein).

[0148] Embodiments of the present disclosure include a conjugate in which a polypeptide is conjugated to one or more parts, for example, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, or ten or more parts. A part can be conjugated to a polypeptide at one or more sites in the polypeptide. For example, one or more parts can be conjugated to a single amino acid residue of the polypeptide. In some cases, one part is conjugated to an amino acid residue of the polypeptide. In other embodiments, two parts can be conjugated to the same amino acid residue of the polypeptide. In other embodiments, a first part is conjugated to a first amino acid residue of the polypeptide, and a second part is conjugated to a second amino acid residue of the polypeptide. The above combinations are also possible, for example, the polypeptide is conjugated to a first amino acid residue by a first part and to a second amino acid residue by two other parts. Other combinations are also possible, for example, polypeptides in which the first and second portions are conjugated to a first amino acid residue, and the third and fourth portions are conjugated to a second amino acid residue. In some cases, two or more amino acid residues in the polypeptide are each conjugated to a pair of portions (i.e., two portions), and each pair of portions is conjugated to the polypeptide via a branched linker as described herein. In other cases, one amino acid residue in the polypeptide is conjugated to a pair of portions via a branched linker as described herein.

[0149] One or more amino acid residues of a polypeptide conjugated to one or more parts may be naturally occurring amino acids, unnatural amino acids, or a combination thereof. For example, the conjugate may comprise one or more drugs or active agents conjugated to naturally occurring amino acid residues of the polypeptide. In other cases, the conjugate may comprise one or more drugs or active agents conjugated to unnatural amino acid residues of the polypeptide. One or more drugs or active agents may be conjugated to the polypeptide with a single natural or unnatural amino acid residue, as described above. One or more natural or unnatural amino acid residues in the polypeptide may be conjugated to one or more parts as described herein. For example, two (or more) amino acid residues (e.g., natural or unnatural amino acid residues) in the polypeptide may each be conjugated to one or two parts, resulting in multiple sites in the polypeptide being conjugated to the desired parts.

[0150] In certain embodiments, a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) and a moiety of interest (e.g., a drug or active agent) are conjugated via a conjugation moiety. For example, the polypeptide and the moiety of interest may each be bound (e.g., covalently) to the conjugation moiety, and thus indirectly linked together via the conjugation moiety. In some cases, the conjugation moiety includes a hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl compound, or a derivative of a hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl compound. For example, a general scheme for coupling a moiety of interest to a polypeptide via a hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugation moiety is shown in the general reaction scheme below. The hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugated moieties are also referred to herein as the hydrazino-iso-Pictet-Spengler (HIPS) conjugated moiety and the aza-hydrazino-iso-Pictet-Spengler (aza-HIPS) conjugated moiety, respectively. [ka]

[0151] In the above reaction scheme, R comprises a target portion (e.g., a drug or active agent) to be conjugated to the polypeptide (e.g., conjugated to the polypeptide via a cleavable linker as described herein). As shown in the above reaction scheme, a polypeptide comprising a 2-formylglycine residue (fGly) is reacted with a drug or active agent modified to include a conjugation moiety (e.g., a hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugation moiety) to produce a polypeptide conjugate ligated to the conjugation moiety, thereby ligating the drug or active agent to the polypeptide via the conjugation moiety.

[0152] As described herein, this part may be any of the following: a variety of parts, for example, a chemical entity, for example, a detectable label, or a drug or active agent. R' and R'' may each independently be any desired substituent, for example, but not limited to hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, alkenyl, substituted alkenyl, alkynyl, substituted alkynyl, alkoxy, substituted alkoxy, amino, substituted amino, carboxyl, carboxyl ester, acyl, acyloxy, acylamino, aminoacyl, alkylamide, substituted alkylamide, sulfonyl, thioalkoxy, substituted thioalkoxy, aryl, substituted aryl, heteroaryl, substituted heteroaryl, cycloalkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, heterocyclyl, and substituted heterocyclyl. Z is CR 21 , NR 22 It may be N, O, or S, in the formula, R 21 and R 22 Each of these substituents is independently selected from among the substituents described above for R' and R''.

[0153] Other hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl coupling moieties are also possible, as shown in the conjugates and compounds described herein. For example, hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl coupling moieties may be connected to a linker (e.g., covalently). Thus, embodiments of the present disclosure include hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugate moieties connected to a drug or active agent via a linker. Various embodiments of linkers capable of coupling hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugate moieties to a drug or active agent are described in detail herein. For example, in some cases, the linker is a cleavable linker, e.g., a cleavable linker as described herein.

[0154] In some cases, the hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugate moiety may be connected (e.g., covalently) to two or more linkers. Therefore, embodiments of the present disclosure include a hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugate moiety connected to two or more drugs or active agents via corresponding linkers. Thus, the conjugate of the present disclosure may include two or more linkers, each linker connecting the corresponding drug or active agent to the hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugate moiety. Therefore, the hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugate moiety and the two or more linkers can be considered as a “branched linker,” where the hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugate moiety is connected to two of many “branches,” each branch containing a linker connected to a drug or active agent.

[0155] In certain embodiments, the polypeptide may be conjugated to one or more moieties of interest, and one or more amino acid residues of the polypeptide are modified before conjugation to the moieties of interest. Modification of one or more amino acid residues of the polypeptide may produce a polypeptide containing one or more reactive groups suitable for conjugation to the moieties of interest. In some cases, the polypeptide may contain one or more modified amino acid residues and provide one or more reactive groups suitable for conjugation to the moieties of interest (e.g., one or more moieties containing a conjugation moiety such as the hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugated moieties described above). For example, the amino acids of the polypeptide may be modified to contain a reactive aldehyde group (e.g., a reactive aldehyde). Reactive aldehydes may be included in “aldehyde tags” or “ald-tags,” which, as used herein, refer to amino acid sequences derived from a sulfatase motif (e.g., L(C / S)TPSR) that have been converted by the action of formylglycinase (FGE) to contain a 2-formylglycine residue (referred to herein as “fGly”). The fGly residue produced by FGE may also be referred to as “formylglycine.” In other words, the term “aldehyde tag” is used herein to refer to an amino acid sequence containing a “converted” sulfatase motif (i.e., a sulfatase motif in which a cysteine ​​or serine residue has been converted to fGly by the action of FGE, e.g., L(fGly)TPSR). A converted sulfatase motif can be generated from an amino acid sequence containing an "unconverted" sulfatase motif (i.e., a sulfatase motif in which a cysteine ​​or serine residue has not been converted to FGly by FGE, but is capable of being converted, e.g., an unconverted sulfatase motif having the sequence L(C / S)TPSR). When used in the context of the action of formylglycine-producing enzymes (FGE) on a sulfatase motif, "conversion" refers to the biochemical modification of a cysteine ​​or serine residue to a formylglycine (fGly) residue (e.g., Cys to fGly, or Ser to fGly) in the sulfatase motif.Further embodiments of aldehyde tags in site-directed protein modification and their use are described in U.S. Patents No. 7,985,783 and No. 8,729,232, the respective disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0156] In some cases, to generate a conjugate, a polypeptide containing an fGly residue may be conjugated to the desired moiety by a reaction between fGly and a compound (for example, a compound containing a hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugated moiety, as described above). For example, a fGly-containing polypeptide may be contacted with a drug containing a reactive partner under conditions suitable for providing drug conjugation to the polypeptide. In some cases, the drug containing the reactive partner may contain the hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugated moiety described above. For example, a drug or active agent may be modified to contain a hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugated moiety. In some cases, the drug or active agent is linked to hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl, covalently bound to hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl, for example, via a linker (e.g., a linker described in detail herein).

[0157] In certain embodiments, the conjugates of the present disclosure comprise a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) having at least one amino acid residue conjugated to one or more moieties of interest (e.g., a drug or active agent). To construct a conjugate, the amino acid residues of the polypeptide may be modified and then coupled to one or more drugs or active agents conjugated to the hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugated moieties described above. In certain embodiments, the amino acid residues of the polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) are cysteine ​​or serine residues modified to fGly residues as described above. In certain embodiments, the modified amino acid residues (e.g., fGly residues) conjugate to the drugs or active agents containing the hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugated moieties described above, providing the conjugates of the present disclosure in which one or more drugs or active agents are conjugated to the polypeptide via the hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugated moieties. As used herein, the term 'fGly' refers to a modified amino acid residue of a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) that is coupled to a moiety of interest (e.g., a drug or active agent).

[0158] In certain embodiments, the conjugate comprises a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) having at least one amino acid residue that is conjugated to a linker described herein, which is then conjugated to one or more drugs or active agents. For example, the conjugate may comprise a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) having at least one amino acid residue (fGly') that is conjugated to one or more portions of interest (e.g., one or more drugs or active agents) as described above.

[0273] Second Linker L B In certain embodiments, the left side of the linker structure is connected to a hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugated moiety, and the right side of the linker structure is connected to camptothecin or a camptothecin derivative. Second linker L B In certain embodiments, the left side of the linker structure is connected to a hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugated moiety via a linking functional group such as -NHCO-.

[0274] In certain embodiments, the conjugate is such that the antibody and drug are linked to a linker (e.g., L or L) as described above. B An antibody-drug conjugate is linked together by a linker. In some cases, the linker is a cleavable linker. A cleavable linker is a linker containing one or more cleavable moieties, each containing one or more bonds that can dissociate under certain conditions, and thus separate the cleavable linker into two or more separable parts. For example, each cleavable moiety may contain one or more covalent bonds, each containing one or more covalent bonds that can dissociate or separate under certain conditions to separate the cleavable linker into two or more parts. Such a cleavable linker may be contained in an antibody-drug conjugate, and as a result, under appropriate conditions, the cleavable linker is cleaved, separating or releasing the drug from the antibody at a desired target site of action for that drug.

[0275] In some cases, a cleavable linker includes two cleavable portions, for example, a first cleavable portion and a second cleavable portion. The cleavable portions may be configured such that cleavage of both cleavable portions is required to separate or release the drug from the antibody at a desired target site of action for the drug. For example, cleavage of a cleavable linker can be achieved by first cleaving one of the two cleavable portions and then cleaving the other of the two cleavable portions. In certain embodiments, a cleavable linker includes a first cleavable portion and a second cleavable portion that interferes with the cleavage of the first cleavable portion. "Interfering with cleavage" means that the presence of the uncleaved second cleavable portion reduces the possibility of cleavage of the first cleavable portion or substantially inhibits cleavage, and therefore substantially reduces or prevents cleavage of the cleavable linker. For example, the presence of an uncleaved second cleavable portion can interfere with the cleavage of the first cleavable portion. The presence of a second cleavable portion interferes with the cleavage of the first cleavable portion, thereby substantially reducing or preventing the release of the drug from the antibody. For example, premature release of the drug from the antibody can be substantially reduced or prevented until the antibody-drug conjugate is at or near the desired target site of action for the drug.

[0276] In some cases, the second cleavable portion interferes with the cleavage of the first cleavable portion, so cleavage of the cleavable linker can be achieved by first cleaving the second cleavable portion and then the first cleavable portion. Cleavage of the second cleavable portion can reduce or eliminate the interference with cleavage of the first cleavable portion, and thus enable cleavage of the first cleavable portion. Cleavage of the first cleavable portion allows the cleavable linker to dissociate or separate into two or more portions as described above, thereby releasing the drug from the antibody-drug conjugate. In some cases, cleavage of the first cleavable portion does not substantially occur in the presence of the uncleaved second cleavable portion. "Substantially" means that, in the presence of a second, uncuttable portion, the cutting of the first cleavable portion is less than approximately 10%; for example, in the presence of a second, uncuttable portion, the cutting of the first cleavable portion is less than approximately 9%, or less than approximately 8%, or less than approximately 7%, or less than approximately 6%, or less than approximately 5%, or less than approximately 4%, or less than approximately 3%, or less than approximately 2%, or less than approximately 1%, or less than approximately 0.5%, or less than approximately 0.1%.

[0277] In other words, the second cleavable portion can protect the first cleavable portion from being cleaved. For example, the presence of an uncleaved second cleavable portion can protect the first cleavable portion from being cleaved, and thus substantially reduce or prevent premature release of the drug from the antibody until the antibody-drug conjugate is at or near the desired target site of action for the drug. Thus, cleavage of the second cleavable portion exposes the first cleavable portion (e.g., deprotects the first cleavable portion), and thus enables cleavage of the first cleavable portion, resulting in cleavage of the cleavable linker, and then separation or release of the drug from the antibody at the desired target site of action for the drug. In certain cases, cleavage of the second cleavable portion exposes the first cleavable portion to subsequent cleavage, but the second cleavable portion is not in the cleavable linker and does not cause cleavage of the cleavable linker itself (i.e., cleavage of the first cleavable portion is still required to cleave the cleavable linker).

[0278] Each cleavable portion within a cleavable linker may be an enzymatically cleavable portion. For example, the first cleavable portion may be the first enzymatically cleavable portion, and the second cleavable portion may be the second enzymatically cleavable portion. An enzymatically cleavable portion is a cleavable portion that can be separated into two or more parts as described above by the enzymatic action of an enzyme. An enzymatically cleavable portion may be any cleavable portion that can be cleaved by the enzymatic action of an enzyme, such as, but not limited to, peptides, glycosides, etc. In some cases, the enzyme that cleaves the enzymatically cleavable portion is present at the desired target site of action, such as the desired target site of action of the drug released from the antibody-drug conjugate. In other cases, the enzyme that cleaves the enzymatically cleavable portion is not present in significant amounts in other regions such as whole blood, plasma, or serum. Therefore, cleavage of the enzymatically cleavable portion can be controlled so that substantial cleavage occurs at the desired site of action, while significant cleavage does not occur in other regions or before the antibody-drug conjugate reaches the desired site of action.

[0279] For example, as described herein, the antibody-drug conjugates of this disclosure can be used for the treatment of cancer, for example, for the delivery of cancer-therapeutic drugs to a desired site of action where cancer cells are present. In some cases, an enzyme, for example, the protease enzyme cathepsin B, may be a biomarker for cancer that is overexpressed in cancer cells. The overexpression, and therefore localization, of a specific enzyme in cancer can be used in the context of an enzymatically cleavable moiety contained in the cleavable linker of the antibody-drug conjugate of this disclosure to specifically release a drug at a desired site of action (i.e., the site of cancer (and the overexpressed enzyme)). Thus, in some embodiments, the enzymatically cleavable moiety is a cleavable moiety (e.g., a peptide) that can be cleaved by an enzyme overexpressed in cancer cells. For example, the enzyme may be the protease enzyme cathepsin B. Thus, in some cases, the enzymatically cleavable moiety is a cleavable moiety (e.g., a peptide) that can be cleaved by a protease enzyme (e.g., cathepsin B).

[0280] In certain embodiments, the enzymatically cleavable portion is a peptide. The peptide can be any peptide that is suitable for use in a cleavable linker and can be cleaved by the enzymatic action of an enzyme. Non-limiting examples of peptides that can be used as an enzymatically cleavable portion include, for example, Val-Ala and Phe-Lys. For example, the first cleavable portion described above (i.e., the cleavage portion protected from premature cleavage by the second cleavable portion) may include a peptide. The presence of an uncleaved second cleavable portion can protect the first cleavable portion (peptide) from cleavage by a protease enzyme (e.g., cathepsin B), and thus substantially reduce or prevent premature release of the drug from the antibody until the antibody-drug conjugate is at or near the desired target site of action for the drug. In some cases, one of the amino acid residues of the peptide containing the first cleavable portion is linked to or contains a substituent, the substituent contains the second cleavable portion. In some cases, the second cleavable portion contains a glycoside.

[0281] In some embodiments, the enzymatically cleavable portion is a sugar moiety, such as a glycoside (or glycosyl). In some cases, the glycoside can promote increased hydrophilicity of the cleavable linker compared to a cleavable linker that does not contain a glycoside. The glycoside can be any glycoside or glycoside derivative that is suitable for use in a cleavable linker and can be cleaved by the enzymatic action of an enzyme. For example, the second cleavable portion (i.e., a cleavable portion that protects the first cleavable portion from premature cleavage) can be a glycoside. For example, in some embodiments, the first cleavable portion includes a peptide, and the second cleavable portion includes a glycoside. In certain embodiments, the second cleavable portion is a glycoside or glycoside derivative selected from glucuronides, galactosides, glucosides, mannosides, fucosides, O-GlcNAc, and O-GalNAc. In some cases, the second cleavable portion is a glucuronide. In some cases, the second cleavable portion is a galactoside. In some cases, the second cleavable portion is a glucoside. In some cases, the second cleavable portion is a mannoside. In some cases, the second cleavable portion is a fucoside. In some cases, the second cleavable portion is O-GlcNAc. In some cases, the second cleavable portion is O-GalNAc.

[0282] Glycosides can be linked (covalently) to cleavable linkers via glycosidic bonds. Glycosidic bonds can link glycosides to cleavable linkers via various types of bonds, including, but are not limited to, O-glycosidic bonds (O-glycosid), N-glycosidic bonds (glycosylamine), S-glycosidic bonds (thioglycoside), or C-glycosidic bonds (C-glycosid or C-glycosyl). In some cases, the glycosidic bond is an O-glycosidic bond (O-glycosid). In other cases, glycosides can be cleaved from cleavable linkers by enzymes (e.g., via enzyme-mediated hydrolysis of the glycosidic bond). Glycosides can be removed or cleaved from cleavable linkers by any convenient enzyme capable of performing the cleavage (hydrolysis) of the glycosidic bond linking the glycoside to the cleavable linker. Examples of enzymes that can be used to mediate the cleavage (hydrolysis) of glycosidic bonds connecting glycosides to cleavable linkers include glucuronidases, glycosidases, e.g., galactosidases, glucosidases, mannosidases, and fucosidases. Other suitable enzymes can also be used to mediate the cleavage (hydrolysis) of glycosidic bonds connecting glycosides to cleavable linkers. In some cases, the enzyme used to mediate the cleavage (hydrolysis) of glycosidic bonds connecting glycosides to cleavable linkers is found at or near the desired site of action for the drug in the antibody-drug conjugate. For example, the enzyme may be a lysosomal enzyme, e.g., a lysosomal glycosidase, found in cells at or near the desired site of action for the drug in the antibody-drug conjugate. In some cases, the enzyme is found at or near the target site where the enzyme mediating the cleavage of the first cleavable portion is found.

[0297] The compound of formula (III) can be used in the conjugation reactions described herein, and the drug or active agent connected to the hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugate moiety is conjugated to a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) to form an antibody-drug conjugate.

[0298] In a particular embodiment, the compound of formula (III) is as follows: [ka] TIFF0007912544000095.tif211150 TIFF0007912544000096.tif225152TIFF0007912544000097.tif162148 TIFF0007912544000098.tif152148 TIFF0007912544000099.tif230150TIFF0007912544000100.tif215149 TIFF0007912544000101.tif205149 TIFF0007912544000102.tif212149 TIFF0007912544000103.tif180150 TIFF0007912544000104.tif171148 It has the structure TIFF0007912544000105.tif202149TIFF0007912544000106.tif189153.

[0299] Any of the chemical entities, linkers, and conjugated portions shown in the above structure may be adapted for use in the compounds and conjugates of this subject.

[0300] Polypeptides and antibodies As shown above, the subject conjugate may include a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) as substituent W. The amino acid sequence of the polypeptide (antibody) is modified to include a 2-formylglycine (fGly) residue. As used herein, amino acids may be referred to by their standard names, their standard three-letter abbreviations, and / or their standard one-letter abbreviations, for example, alanine or Ala or A, cysteine ​​or Cys or C, aspartic acid or Asp or D, glutamic acid or Glu or E, phenylalanine or Phe or F, glycine or Gly or G, histidine or His or H, isoleucine or Ile or I, lysine or Lys or K, leucine or Leu or L, methionine or Met or M, asparagine or Asn or N, proline or Pro or P, glutamine or Gln or Q, arginine or Arg or R, serine or Ser or S, threonine or Thr or T, valine or Val or V, tryptophan or Trp or W, and tyrosine or Tyr or Y.

[0301] In certain embodiments, the amino acid sequence of a polypeptide (antibody) is modified to include a sulfatase motif containing a serine or cysteine ​​residue that can be converted (oxidized) to a 2-formylglycine (fGly) residue by the action of formylglycine-producing enzyme (FGE) either in vivo (e.g., during translation of an aldehyde tag-containing protein in cells) or in vitro (e.g., by contacting an aldehyde tag-containing protein with FGE in a cell-free system). Such a sulfatase motif may also be referred to herein as an FGE modification site.

[0302] Sulfatase motif The minimum sulfatase motif of an aldehyde tag is typically 5 or 6 amino acid residues long, and usually 6 or fewer amino acid residues long. The sulfatase motif provided in an Ig polypeptide is at least 5 or 6 amino acid residues, and can be 5-16, 6-16, 5-15, 6-15, 5-14, 6-14, 5-13, 6-13, 5-12, 6-12, 5-11, 6-11, 5-10, 6-10, 5-9, 6-9, 5-8, or 6-8 amino acid residues long, for example, to define a sulfatase motif with an amino acid residue length of 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, or less than 6 amino acid residues.

[0303] In certain embodiments, the polypeptide of interest includes one or more amino acid residues, for example, two or more, or three or more, or four or more, or five or more, or six or more, or seven or more, or eight or more, or nine or more, or ten or more, or eleven or eleven or twelve or thirteen or thirteen or fourteen or fifteen or fifteen or sixteen or seven or seventeen or seven or eight or nine or twenty or more amino acid residues, compared to the native amino acid sequence for providing a sequence of sulfatase motifs in the polypeptide. In certain embodiments, the polypeptide includes modifications (insertions, additions, deletions, and / or substitutions) of 20, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, or fewer than two amino acid residues in the amino acid sequence compared to the native amino acid sequence of the polypeptide. If the native amino acid sequence of a polypeptide (e.g., an antibody) contains one or more residues of a desired sulfatase motif, the total number of residue modifications can be reduced, for example, by site-specific modifications (insertion, addition, deletion, substitution / replacement) of amino acid residues adjacent to native amino acid residues that provide the sequence of the desired sulfatase motif. In certain embodiments, the degree of modification of the native amino acid sequence of the target antibody is minimized so as to minimize the number of amino acid residues inserted, deleted, substituted (replaced), and / or added (e.g., relative to the N-terminus or C-terminus). By minimizing the degree of modification of the amino acid sequence of the target antibody, the potential impact of such modifications on the antibody's function and / or structure can be minimized.

[0304] While aldehyde tags for specific purposes include at least one minimal sulfatase motif (also referred to as the “consensus sulfatase motif”), it should be noted that longer aldehyde tags are intended and included in this disclosure and may find applications in the compositions and methods of this disclosure. Accordingly, aldehyde tags may include a minimal sulfatase motif of five or six residues, or may be longer, and may include a minimal sulfatase motif that can be flanked at the N-terminal and / or C-terminal side of the motif by additional amino acid residues. For example, aldehyde tags of five or six amino acid residues, as well as longer amino acid sequences of 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 or more amino acid residues, are intended.

[0305] The aldehyde tag may be located at or near the C-terminus of the Ig heavy chain. For example, the aldehyde tag may be located within the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, or 10th amino acids at the C-terminus of the natural wild-type Ig heavy chain. The aldehyde tag may be located within the CH1 domain of the Ig heavy chain. The aldehyde tag may be located within the CH2 domain of the Ig heavy chain. The aldehyde tag may be located within the CH3 domain of the Ig heavy chain. The aldehyde tag may be located within the constant region of the Ig light chain, for example, within the kappa light chain constant region or the lambda light chain constant region.

[0306] In certain embodiments, the sulfatase motif used may be described by the following formula: X 1 Z 10 X 2 Z 20 X 3 Z 30 (I') During the ceremony, Z 10 However, it is cysteine ​​or serine (which can also be represented by (C / S)), Z 20 However, it is either a proline or alanine residue (which can also be represented by (P / A)), Z 30However, basic amino acids (for example, arginine (R), lysine (K) or histidine (H), for example, lysine), or aliphatic amino acids (alanine (A), glycine (G), leucine (L), valine (V), isoleucine (I), or proline (P), for example, A, G, L, V, or I, X 1 However, whether present or absent, if present, any amino acid, e.g., aliphatic amino acid, sulfur-containing amino acid, or polar uncharged amino acid (i.e., other than aromatic amino acids or charged amino acids), e.g., L, M, V, S, or T, e.g., L, M, S, or V, provided that the sulfatase motif is at the N-terminus of the target polypeptide, X 1 There exists, X 2 and X 3 However, independently, any amino acid may be used, but usually it may be an aliphatic amino acid, a polar uncharged amino acid, or a sulfur-containing amino acid (i.e., an amino acid other than an aromatic amino acid or a charged amino acid), such as S, T, A, V, G, or C, for example, S, T, A, V, or G.

[0307] The amino acid sequence of the antibody heavy chain and / or light chain is given by formula X 1 Z 10 X 2 Z 20 X 3 Z 30 It may be modified to provide a sequence of at least 5 amino acids, in the formula, Z 10 However, it is cysteine ​​or serine, Z 20 However, it is a proline or alanine residue, Z 30 However, they are aliphatic amino acids or basic amino acids. X 1 However, it may or may not exist, and if it exists, it is any amino acid, provided that a heterologous sulfatase motif is at the N-terminus of the polypeptide, X 1 There exists, X 2 and X 3 However, each of them is an arbitrary amino acid, independently of the others.

[0308] The sulfatase motif is generally selected so as to be convertible by a selected FGE, for example, an FGE present in a host cell expressing an aldehyde-tagged polypeptide, or an FGE that is contacted with the aldehyde-tagged polypeptide in a cell-free in vitro method.

[0309] For example, if FGE is a eukaryotic FGE (e.g., mammalian FGE, including human FGE), the sulfatase motif is given by the following formula. X 1 CX 2 PX 3 Z 30 (I'') It could also be a sulfatase motif. During the ceremony, X 1 However, it may or may not be present, and if present, it may be any amino acid, for example, an aliphatic amino acid, a sulfur-containing amino acid, or a polar uncharged amino acid (i.e., other than an aromatic amino acid or a charged amino acid), for example, L, M, S, or V, provided that the sulfatase motif is at the N-terminus of the target polypeptide, X 1 There exists, X 2 and X 3 However, independently, any amino acid, for example, an aliphatic amino acid, a sulfur-containing amino acid, or a polar uncharged amino acid (i.e., something other than an aromatic amino acid or a charged amino acid), for example, S, T, A, V, G, or C, for example, S, T, A, V, or G. Z 30 However, it may be a basic amino acid (for example, arginine (R), lysine (K) or histidine (H), for example, lysine), or an aliphatic amino acid (alanine (A), glycine (G), leucine (L), valine (V), isoleucine (I), or proline (P), for example, A, G, L, V, or I).

[0310] Specific examples of sulfatase motifs include LCTPSR(sequence code: / / ), MCTPSR(sequence code: / / ), VCTPSR(sequence code: / / ), LCSPSR(sequence code: / / ), LCAPSR(sequence code: / / ), LCVPSR(sequence code: / / ), LCGPSR(sequence code: / / ), ICTPAR(sequence code: / / ), LCTPSK(sequence code: / / ), MCTPSK(sequence code: / / ), VCTPSK(sequence code: / / ), LCSPSK(sequence code: / / ), LCAPSK(sequence code: / / ), LCVPSK(sequence code: / / ), LCGPSK(sequence code: / / ), LCTPSA(sequence code: / / ), ICTPAA(sequence code: / / ), MCTPSA(sequence code: / / ), VCTPSA(sequence code: / / ), LCSPSA(sequence code: / / ), LCAPSA(sequence code: / / ), LCVPSA(sequence code: / / ), and LCGPSA(sequence code: / / ).

[0311] fGly-containing sequences When FGE acts on the heavy and / or light chains of an antibody, serine or cysteine ​​in the sulfatase motif is modified to fGly. Therefore, the fGly-containing sulfatase motif is given by the following formula: X 1 (fGly)X 2 Z 20 X 3 Z 30 (I''') It could also be a sulfatase motif. During the ceremony, fGly is a formylglycine residue, Z 20 However, it is either a proline or alanine residue (which can also be represented by (P / A)), Z 30 However, basic amino acids (for example, arginine (R), lysine (K), or histidine (H), usually lysine is also acceptable), or aliphatic amino acids (alanine (A), glycine (G), leucine (L), valine (V), isoleucine (I), or proline (P), for example, A, G, L, V, or I, X 1However, it may or may not be present, and if present, any amino acid, for example, an aliphatic amino acid, a sulfur-containing amino acid, or a polar uncharged amino acid (i.e., other than an aromatic amino acid or a charged amino acid), for example, L, M, V, S, or T, for example, L, M, or V, provided that the sulfatase motif is at the N-terminus of the target polypeptide, X 1 There exists, X 2 and X 3 However, independently, any amino acid may be used, for example, an aliphatic amino acid, a sulfur-containing amino acid, or a polar uncharged amino acid (i.e., an amino acid other than an aromatic amino acid or a charged amino acid), for example, S, T, A, V, G, or C, for example, S, T, A, V, or G.

[0312] As described above, in order to generate a conjugate, a polypeptide containing fGly residues can be conjugated to a drug or active agent by a reaction between fGly and the reactive portion of a linker linked to the drug or active agent (for example, a hydrazinyl-indolyl or hydrazinyl-pyrrolo-pyridinyl conjugated portion, as described above), thereby generating an fGly'-containing sulfatase motif. As used herein, the term fGly' refers to the amino acid residue of the sulfatase motif coupled to the drug or active agent via a linker, as described herein. Thus, the fGly'-containing sulfatase motif is given by the following formula X 1 (fGly')X 2 Z 20 X 3 Z 30 (II) It could also be a sulfatase motif. During the ceremony, fGly' is an amino acid residue that is coupled to a drug or active agent via the linker described herein. Z 20 However, it is either a proline or alanine residue (which can also be represented by (P / A)), Z 30However, basic amino acids (for example, arginine (R), lysine (K), or histidine (H), usually lysine is also acceptable), or aliphatic amino acids (alanine (A), glycine (G), leucine (L), valine (V), isoleucine (I), or proline (P), for example, A, G, L, V, or I, X 1 However, it may or may not be present, and if present, any amino acid, for example, an aliphatic amino acid, a sulfur-containing amino acid, or a polar uncharged amino acid (i.e., other than an aromatic amino acid or a charged amino acid), for example, L, M, V, S, or T, for example, L, M, or V, provided that the sulfatase motif is at the N-terminus of the target polypeptide, X 1 There exists, X 2 and X 3 However, independently, any amino acid may be used, for example, an aliphatic amino acid, a sulfur-containing amino acid, or a polar uncharged amino acid (i.e., an amino acid other than an aromatic amino acid or a charged amino acid), for example, S, T, A, V, G, or C, for example, S, T, A, V, or G.

[0313] Modification site As shown above, the amino acid sequence of the polypeptide (antibody) is modified to include a sulfatase motif containing a serine or cysteine ​​residue that can be converted (oxidized) to an fGly residue by the action of FGE, either in vivo (e.g., during translation of an aldehyde tag-containing protein in cells) or in vitro (e.g., by contacting an aldehyde tag-containing protein with FGE in a cell-free system). The antibody used to generate the conjugate of this disclosure includes at least an Ig constant region, e.g., an Ig heavy chain constant region (e.g., at least a CH1 domain; at least CH1 and CH2 domains; CH1, CH2, and CH3 domains; or CH1, CH2, CH3, and CH4 domains), or an Ig light chain constant region. Such an Ig polypeptide is referred to herein as a “targeted Ig polypeptide” or “targeted antibody”.

[0314] The site in the antibody to which the sulfatase motif is introduced can be any convenient site. As shown above, in some cases the degree of modification of the native amino acid sequence of the target polypeptide is kept to a minimum so as to minimize the number of amino acid residues inserted, deleted, substituted, and / or added (e.g., to the N-terminus or C-terminus). By minimizing the degree of modification of the amino acid sequence of the target antibody, the potential impact of such modifications on the antibody's function and / or structure can be minimized.

[0315] The antibody heavy chain constant region may include the Ig constant region of any heavy chain isotype, or an Ig heavy chain constant region that does not exist naturally (including the consensus Ig heavy chain constant region). The Ig constant region amino acid sequence may be modified to include an aldehyde tag, which is located within or adjacent to the solvent-accessible loop region of the Ig constant region. The Ig constant region amino acid sequence may be modified by insertions and / or substitutions of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, or 16 amino acids, or more than 16 amino acids, to provide the amino acid sequence of the sulfatase motif as described above.

[0316] In some cases, the aldehyde-tagged antibody comprises an aldehyde-tagged Ig heavy chain constant region (e.g., at least a CH1 domain; at least CH1 and CH2 domains; CH1, CH2, and CH3 domains; or CH1, CH2, CH3, and CH4 domains). The aldehyde-tagged Ig heavy chain constant region may comprise an IgA, IgM, IgD, IgE, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, or IgG4 isotype heavy chain, or any allotype variant thereof, such as a human heavy chain constant region sequence or a mouse heavy chain constant region sequence, a hybrid heavy chain constant region, a synthetic heavy chain constant region, or a consensus heavy chain constant region sequence modified by FGE to include at least one sulfatase motif capable of producing an fGly-modified Ig polypeptide. Allotype variants of Ig heavy chains are known in the art. See, for example, Jefferis and Lefranc (2009) MAbs 1:4.

[0317] In some cases, an aldehyde-tagged antibody includes an aldehyde-tagged Ig light chain constant region. The aldehyde-tagged Ig light chain constant region may include a kappa light chain, a lambda light chain, for example, a human kappa or lambda light chain constant region, a hybrid light chain constant region, a synthetic light chain constant region, or a consensus light chain constant region sequence modified by FGE and containing at least one sulfatase motif capable of producing an fGly-modified antibody. An exemplary constant region includes the human gamma 1 and gamma 3 regions. Except for the sulfatase motif, the modified constant region may have a wild-type amino acid sequence, or an amino acid sequence that is at least 70% identical (e.g., at least 80%, at least 90%, or at least 95% identical) to the wild-type amino acid sequence.

[0318] In some embodiments, the sulfatase motif is located at a position other than the C-terminus of the Ig polypeptide heavy chain, or at a position added to the C-terminus of the Ig polypeptide heavy chain. As shown above, the isolated aldehyde-tagged antibody may contain a heavy chain constant region amino acid sequence modified to include the sulfatase motif described above, where the sulfatase motif is located within or adjacent to a surface-accessible loop region of the antibody heavy chain constant region.

[0319] The sulfatase motif may be provided within or adjacent to one or more of these amino acid sequences of the modified site of the Ig heavy chain. For example, if the Ig heavy chain polypeptide amino acid sequence is modified by one or more of these amino acid sequences (e.g., the modification involves the insertion, deletion, and / or substitution of one or more amino acid residues), a sulfatase motif can be provided adjacent to these modified sites at the N-terminus and / or adjacent to the C-terminus. Alternatively, or in addition to the above, if the Ig heavy chain polypeptide amino acid sequence is modified by one or more of these amino acid sequences (e.g., the modification involves the insertion, deletion, and / or substitution of one or more amino acid residues), a sulfatase motif can be provided between any two residues of the Ig heavy chain modified site. In some embodiments, the Ig heavy chain polypeptide amino acid sequence may be modified to include two motifs, which may be adjacent to each other, or separated by one, two, three, four or more amino acids (e.g., about 1 to about 25, about 25 to about 50, or about 50 to about 100 or more amino acids). Alternatively, or in addition thereto, if the native amino acid sequence provides one or more amino acid residues of a sulfatase motif sequence, selected amino acid residues of the modification site of the Ig heavy chain polypeptide amino acid sequence may be modified to provide a sulfatase motif at the modification site (e.g., if the modification involves the insertion, deletion, and / or substitution of one or more amino acid residues).
