Description
MOLECULE BINDING THE ΑΝΤΙ GROUP OF DIFFERENTIATION 137 (CD137) ANTIGEN AND ITS USE Field of Invention The present disclosure relates to anti-CD137 antigen binding molecules and methods of using the same. Background of the Invention Cancer is a fatal disease that is difficult to cure completely except for a few cases. The result of treatment with chemotherapeutic agents, which is the most important therapeutic method, is not good. It has been suggested that not only the heterogeneity of the cancer cells themselves but also the tumor microenvironment plays a significant role as a factor that makes cancer treatment difficult (NPL 1). Recently, an unresectable and similar malignant melanoma was found to be potentially curable with an anti-CTLA-4 antibody, which suppresses the immunosuppressive function of CTLA-4 and thereby promotes T-cell activation (NPL 2 ). In 2011, a human anti-CTLA-4 monoclonal antibody (ipilimumab) was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (EDA) as the first immunoactivating antibody drug worldwide. world. In addition, other PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibitory antibodies have also been described, other Ref. 314534 immunological checkpoint molecules in addition to CTLA4, with therapeutic effects (NPL 3), and which were approved by the PDA. It will be understood that T cells, which play important roles in tumor immunity, are activated by two signals: 1) binding of a T cell receptor (TCR) to an antigenic peptide presented by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules from class I and TCR activation; and 2) binding of a costimulatory molecule present on the surface of T cells to its ligands on antigen-presenting cells and activation of the costimulatory molecule. In addition, activation of costimulatory molecules belonging to the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily (TNFRSF), including CD137 (4-1BB), on the T cell surface has been reported to be important for T cell activation. (NLP 4) . TNFRSF includes CD137, CD40, 0X40, RANK, GITR, and the like. It has been reported that CD137 is not only expressed on the surface of T cells but also on the surface of other immune cells such as dendritic cells (DC), B cells, NK cells, macrophages and neutrophils (NPL 5 ). An agonist antibody to CD137 has already been shown to have antitumor effects in a mouse model, and Lnn / Lznz / Ε / ΥΙΛΙ Lnn / Lznz / Ε / ΥΙΛΙ has been shown to be primarily the result of activation of CD8-positive T cells and NK cells in experiments with the mouse model (NPL 6). However, side effects due to non-specific hepatotoxicity of CD137 agonist antibody have become clinical and non-clinical problems, thus preventing the desired advancement of drug development (NPL 7, NPL 8). It is suggested that the side effects are caused primarily by activation of immune cells in non-tumor, non-immunological tissues, such as the liver, which involves binding of the antibody to the Fcy receptor through the constant region of the antibody (NPL 9). On the other hand, it has been reported that for agonist antibodies to members of the TNF receptor superfamily to have agonist activity in vivo, the antibody must cross-link with Fcy receptor-expressing cells (FcyRII-expressing cells) (NPL 10). . That is, the binding of the CD137 agonist antibody to the Fcy receptor is involved in the efficacy of the drug in the antitumor effect of the antibody and in its side effects, such as hepatotoxicity. Therefore, an increase in the binding between the antibody and the Fcy receptor is expected to improve the efficacy of the drug but may also increase the hepatotoxic side effects and the reduction of the binding between the antibody and the Fcy receptor may reduce the effects. secondary Lnn / Lznz / Ε / ΥΙΛΙ but can also reduce the effectiveness of the drug. A CD137 agonist antibody whose drug efficacy and side effects are separated has not been reported so far. Furthermore, the antitumor effect of the CD137 agonist antibody itself is not clinically potent at all, and it is sought to improve the efficacy of the drug while avoiding toxicity. Therefore, it is desired to develop a new drug that can induce antitumor immune responses while reducing such side effects. When a therapeutic antibody is administered to a living organism, it is desirable to express its target antigen specifically only at the site of injury. However, in many cases, the same antigen is also expressed at sites other than the lesion, ie in normal tissues, and this could be the cause of unwanted side effects from a treatment point of view. For example, although antibodies against tumor antigens may have cytotoxic activity for tumor cells by ADCC etc., they could also cause damage to normal cells if the same antigen is expressed on such normal cells. In order to solve the problems mentioned above, attention was focused on the phenomenon whereby certain compounds are abundantly present in target tissues (for example, tumor tissues), and a technology was developed to search for antigen-binding molecules. with variable antigen binding activity depending on the concentration of such compounds (eg PTL 1).

Detailed description of the invention I. Definitions The term binding activity refers to the sum total strength of non-covalent interactions between one or more binding sites on a molecule (eg, an antibody) and its binding member (eg, an antigen). Herein, binding activity is not strictly limited to a 1:1 interaction between members of a binding pair (eg, antibody and antigen). By For example, when the members of a binding pair reflect a monovalent 1:1 interaction, the binding activity is referred to in particular as the intrinsic binding affinity (affinity). When a member of a binding pair can bind monovalently and multivalently, the binding activity is the sum of each binding strength. The binding activity of a molecule X by its member Y can generally be represented by the dissociation constant (KD) or amount of binding of analyte per unit amount of ligand (hereinafter referred to as amount of binding). Those skilled in the art will understand that, in general, a lower value of dissociation constant (KD) means higher binding activity, and a higher value of amount of analyte binding per unit amount of ligand or amount of binding means increased binding activity. Binding activity can be measured by common methods known in the art, including those described herein. Specific exemplary and illustrative modalities for measuring binding activity will be described below. An antigen-binding molecule or antibody matured for binding activity, or an antigen-binding molecule or antibody of increased (enhanced) binding activity refers to an antibody with one or more alterations in one or more hypervariable regions (HVRs). , as compared to a parent antigen binding molecule or a parent antibody that does not comprise these alterations, where such alterations result in an improvement in the binding activity of the antigen binding molecule or the antibody to the antigen. The terms anti-CD137 antigen-binding molecule or anti-CD137 antibody and an antigen-binding molecule that binds to CD137 or an antibody that binds to CD137 refer to an antigen-binding molecule or antibody that can bind to CD137. with sufficient binding activity such that the antibody or antigen binding molecule will be of utility as a diagnostic and / or therapeutic agent in targeting CD137. In certain embodiments, an anti-CD137 antibody binds to an epitope on CD137 that is conserved between CD137 from different species. The term "anti-CD137 antigen binding molecule or anti-CD137 antibody having small molecule compound-dependent CD137 binding activity" refers to an antigen binding molecule or antibody exhibiting increased CD137 binding activity. in the presence of the small molecule compound compared to CD137 binding activity in the absence of the small molecule compound. In one embodiment, the presence of a small molecule compound refers to Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ that condition where the small molecule compound is present at a concentration of 10 micromolar or more, 50 micromolar or more, 100 micromolar or more, 150 micromolar or more, 200 micromolar or more, or 250 micromolar or more further. In one embodiment, the extent of binding activity of an anti-CD137 antibody or antigen-binding molecule to an unrelated, non-CD137 protein in the presence of a small molecule compound is less than about 10% binding. of the antigen or antibody binding molecule to CD137 measured, for example, by a radioimmunoassay (RIA) or by surface plasmon resonance (SPR). In certain embodiments, in the presence of a low molecular weight compound, an anti-CD137 antibody or antigen binding molecule has a dissociation constant (KD) of 1 micromolar or less, 100 nM or less, 10 nM or less, 1 nM or less, 0.1 nM or less, 0.01 nM or less, or 0.001 nM or less (for example, 10-6M or less, 10-7M or less, 10-8M or less, 10~9M or less, 10~ 10M or less, for example, between 10~6M and 10~10M, between 10~7M and 10~9M, for example, between 10~7M and 10~8M) . As used herein, the term "antigen-binding molecule" is used in its broadest sense, and refers to a molecule that specifically binds to an antigenic determinant. In one embodiment, the antigen binding molecule is an antibody, an antibody fragment, or an antibody derivative. An agonist antigen binding molecule or agonist antibody, as used herein, is an antibody or antigen binding molecule that significantly induces or potentiates a biological activity of the antigen to which it binds (eg, CD137 and CD3). Therefore, if the antigen is, for example, CD137, such an antigen-binding molecule or antibody having agonist action is called an agonist CD137 antigen-binding molecule or an agonist CD137 antibody, respectively. In the same way, if the antigen is, for example, CD3, such an antigen-binding molecule or antibody having agonist action is called an agonist CD3 antigen-binding molecule or agonist CD3 antibody, respectively. The term antibody is used herein in its broadest sense and encompasses various antibody structures including, but not limited to, monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, multispecies antibodies (eg, bispecific antibodies), and antibody fragments as long as have the desired antigen binding activity. An antibody fragment refers to a molecule other than an intact antibody that comprises a portion of an intact antibody that binds to antigen at the Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ that binds intact antibody. Examples of antibody fragments include, but are not limited to, Fv, Fab, Fab', Fab'-SH, F(ab')2,' diabodies; linear antibodies; single chain antibody molecules (eg, scFv); and multispecific antibodies formed from antibody fragments. An antigen-binding molecule that binds to the same epitope or antibody that binds to the same epitope as a reference antigen-binding molecule or reference antibody refers to an antibody or antigen-binding molecule that blocks binding of the same epitope. reference antibody or a reference antigen molecule binds its antigen in a competition assay by 50% or more, and, conversely, the reference antibody blocks the binding of the antibody to its antigen in a competition assay by 50% or more. An example of a proficiency test is provided here. In one embodiment, in the case where the reference antigen-binding molecule or reference antibody exhibits antigen-binding activity in a low-molecular-weight compound-dependent manner, the competitive assay is performed in the presence of the reference antibody. low molecular weight compound. The term "chimeric antibody" refers to an antibody in which a portion of the heavy chain and / or Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 100 light is derived from a particular source or species, while the remainder of the heavy and / or light chain is derived from a different source or species. The class of an antibody refers to the type of constant domain or constant region present in its heavy chain. There are five broad classes of antibodies: IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM, and some of these can be further divided into subclasses (isotypes), for example, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgAl, and IgA2. The heavy chain constant domains that correspond to the different classes of immunoglobulins are called alpha, delta, epsilon, gamma, and mu, respectively. Effector functions refer to those biological activities attributable to the Fe region of an antibody, which vary with the antibody isotype. Examples of antibody effector functions include: Clq binding and complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC); Fe receptor binding; antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC); phagocytosis; decreased expression of cell surface receptors (eg, B cell receptors); and activation of B lymphocytes. Cytotoxicity refers to activity that inhibits or prevents cell function, and / or causes cell death or destruction. The cytotoxicity can be, for example, a cell-mediated cytotoxicity activity Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 101 antibody-dependent cytotoxicity (ADCC), a complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) activity, and a T-cell cytotoxicity; and may be cytotoxicity caused by cytotoxic agents (eg, radioisotopes and chemotherapeutic agents) such as immunoconjugates. The term Fe region is used herein to define a C-terminal region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain that contains at least a constant region portion. The term includes native sequences of Fe regions and variant Fe regions. In one embodiment, a human IgG heavy chain Fe region extends from Cys226, or from Pro230, to the carboxy terminus of the heavy chain. However, the C-terminal Lysin (Lys447) or glycine-lysine (residues 446-447) of the Fe region may or may not be present. Unless otherwise specified herein, the numbering of amino acid residues in the Fe region or constant region is according to the EU numbering system, also known as the EU index, which is described in Kabat et al. ., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Edition Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, 1991. The term Fe region variant comprises herein an amino acid sequence that differs from the native sequence of the Fe region by at least one amino acid modification, preferably one or more amino acid substitutions. Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 102 amino acids. Preferably, the variant of an Fc region contains at least one amino acid substitution compared to a native sequence of the Fc region or the Fc region of a parent polypeptide, for example between about one and about ten amino acid substitutions, and preferably between about one and about five amino acid substitutions, either in the native sequence of the Fc region or in the Fc region of the parent polypeptide. The Fc region variant presently preferably has at least about 80% homology to a native Fc region sequence and / or to an Fc region of a parent polypeptide, and more preferably at least about 90% homology to the Fc region sequence. same, more preferably at least about 95% homology thereto. Herein, amino acid alterations or substitutions in an Fe region or a constant region may be represented by the combination of the EU numbering system and amino acids. For example, S424N represents a substitution at position 424 in accordance with EU numbering from serine (Ser) to asparagine (Asn). EU424N represents a substitution at position 424 according to EU numbering of an amino acid (of any type) with asparagine (Asn). The term antibody comprising an Fe region Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 103 refers herein to an antibody comprising an Fe region. The C-terminal lysine (residue 447 according to the EU numbering system) or a C-terminal glycine-lysine (residues 446-447) of the Fe region it can be removed, for example, during purification of the antibody or by recombinant modification of the nucleic acid encoding the antibody. Thus, a composition comprising an antibody having an F region according to the present disclosure may comprise an antibody with G446-K447, with G446 and without K447, with deletion of all G446-K447, or a mixture of all three. antibody types as described above. The terms full-length antibody, intact antibody, and whole antibody are used interchangeably herein to refer to an antibody that is substantially similar in structure to the structure of a native antibody or that has heavy chains that contain an Fe region or a variant. of a region Fe defined herein. A human antibody is one having an amino acid sequence corresponding to that of an antibody produced by a human or a human cell or one derived from a non-human source using repertoires of human antibodies or other human antibody-encoding sequences. This definition of a human antibody 104 specifically excludes humanized antibodies that comprise non-human antigen-binding residues. A framework or FR refers to variable domain residues other than hypervariable region (HVR) residues. The FR of a variable domain generally consists of four FR domains: FR1, FR2, FR3, and FR4. Therefore, the HVR and FR sequences generally appear in the following sequence in the VH (or VL): FR1-H1(L1)-FR2-H2(L2)-FR3-H3(L3)FR4 . A human acceptor framework for purposes herein is a framework comprising the amino acid sequence of a light chain variable domain (VL) framework or a heavy chain variable domain (VH) framework derived from a human acceptor framework. human immunoglobulin or a human consensus framework, defined below.

Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 105 human . A human consensus framework is a framework that represents the most common amino acid residues in a selection of VL or VH framework sequences of a human immunoglobulin. In general, the selection of the VL or VH sequences of a human immunoglobulin is from a subset of variable domain sequences. In general, the sequence subset is a subset of Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, Fifth Edition, NIH Publication, 91-3242, Bethesda MD (1991), Volumes 1-3.

(See, for example, Kindt et al. Kuby Immunology, 6th ed., W.H. Freeman and Co., page 91 (2007). A single Vh or Vl domain may be sufficient to confer antigen-binding specificity. Furthermore, antibodies that bind to a particular antigen can be isolated using a VH or VL domain from an antibody that binds the antigen to screen a library of complementary VL or VH domains, respectively See, for example, Portolano et al., J. Immunol 150: 880-887 (1993), Clarkson et al., Nature 352: 624-628 (1991). The term hypervariable region or HVR, as used herein, refers to each of the regions of an antibody variable domain that are sequence hypervariable (regions determining regions).

Mol. Biol. 262: 732-745 (1996)); and (d) combinations of (a), (b) and / or (c), including HVR amino acid residues 46-56 (L2), 47-56 (L2), 48-56 (L2), 49 -56 (L2), 26-35 (Hl), 26-35b (Hl), 49-65 (H2), 93-102 (H3) and 94-102 (H3). Unless otherwise indicated, HVR residues and other variable domain residues (for example, 108 residues FR) are numbered herein according to Kabat et al., supra. Herein, HVR residues or other residues within a variable domain (eg, FR residues) and amino acid alterations or substitutions in such residues may be represented by the combination of the Kabat numbering system and amino acids.

An isolated antibody is one that has been separated from a component of its natural environment. In some embodiments, an antibody is purified to a purity greater than 95% or 99% determined, for example, by electrophoresis (for example, SDS-PAGE, isoelectric focusing (IEF), capillary electrophoresis) or chromatography (for example, HPLC ion exchange or reverse phase). For a review of methods for assessing antibody purity, see, eg, Flatman et al., J. Chromatogr. B 848: 79-87 (2007). An isolated nucleic acid refers to a nucleic acid molecule that has been separated from a component of its natural environment. An isolated nucleic acid includes a nucleic acid molecule contained in cells that ordinarily contain the nucleic acid molecule, but such nucleic acid molecule is present extrachromosomally or at a chromosomal location that is different from its natural chromosomal location. The term "vector" as used herein refers to a nucleic acid molecule capable of propagating Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 110 other nucleic acid to which it is attached. The term includes the vector as a self-replicating nucleic acid structure, as well as the vector incorporated into the genome of a host cell into which it was introduced.

The term monoclonal antibody, as used herein, refers to an antibody derived from or belonging to a population of substantially homogeneous antibodies, that is, the individual antibodies that make up the population are identical and / or bind to the same epitope, except by possible antibody variants, eg, that contain natural mutations or that arise during the production of a monoclonal antibody preparation, where such variants are generally present in minor amounts. Unlike polyclonal antibody preparations, which typically include different antibodies directed against different determinants (epitopes), each monoclonal antibody in a monoclonal antibody preparation is directed against a single determinant on an antigen. Therefore, the monoclonal modifier indicates the character of the antibody as having been obtained from a substantially homogeneous population of antibodies, and not Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 112 implies that no particular method should be used in the production of antibodies. For example, the monoclonal antibodies to be used in accordance with the present disclosure can be obtained by a variety of techniques including, but not limited to, the hybridoma method, recombinant DNA methods, phage display methods, and methods that transgenic animals containing all or part of the human immunoglobulin loci, similar methods, and other exemplary methods are used to make the monoclonal antibodies described herein. A "naked" antibody refers to an antibody that is not conjugated to a heterologous moiety (eg, a cytotoxic moiety) or radiolabel. The naked antibody may be present in a pharmaceutical formulation. Native antibodies refer to natural immunoglobulin molecules with variable structures. For example, native IgG antibodies are heterotetrameric glycoproteins of approximately 150,000 daltons, composed of two identical light chains and two identical heavy chains that are linked by disulfide bonds. Between the N- and C-terminus, each heavy chain has a variable (VH) region, also called the heavy variable domain or the variable domain. 113 heavy chain, followed by three constant domains (CH1, CH2 and CH3). Similarly, between the N- and C-terminal ends, each light chain has a variable region (VL), also called a variable light domain or a light chain variable domain, followed by a constant light (CL) domain. The light chain of an antibody can comprise one of two types, termed kappa (k) and lambda (λ), based on the amino acid sequence of its constant domain. Percent (%) amino acid sequence identity to a reference polypeptide sequence is defined as the percentage of amino acid residues in a candidate sequence that are identical to amino acid residues in the reference polypeptide sequence, then to align the sequences and introduce gaps or mismatches, if necessary, to achieve the maximum percentage of sequence identity, and without considering any conservative substitutions as part of the sequence identity. Alignment to determine percent amino acid sequence identity can be performed in a number of ways that are within the skill of the art, for example, using publicly available computer software such as BLAST, BLAST-2, ALIGN software. o Megalign (DNASTAR) o GENETYX (registered trademark) (Genetyx Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 114 Co., Ltd.) . Those skilled in the art can determine the appropriate parameters for aligning sequences, including any algorithms necessary to achieve maximum alignment over the full length of the sequences being compared. The ALIGN-2 sequence comparison computer program was created by Genentech, Inc., and the source code was filed with the user documentation at the U.S. Copyright Office, Washington D.C., 20559, where it is registered under Registry Number of United States Intellectual Property TXU510087. The ALIGN-2 program is publicly available from Genentech, Inc., South San Francisco, California, or can be compiled from source code. The ALIGN-2 program must be compiled for use with a UNIX operating system, including digital UNIX V4.0D. All sequence comparison parameters are defined by the ALIGN-2 program and do not vary. In situations where ALIGN-2 is used for amino acid sequence comparisons, the % amino acid sequence identity of an amino acid sequence A to, with, or against a given amino acid sequence B (which, alternatively, can be put as a given amino acid sequence A having or comprising a given % amino acid sequence identity to, with, or against an amino acid sequence Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 115 given B) is calculated as follows: 100 times the fraction X / Y where X is the number of amino acid residues scored as identical matches by the ALIGN-2 sequence alignment program in the ALIGN-2 sequence alignment program of A and B, and where Y is the total number of residues of amino acids in B. It will be appreciated that when the length of amino acid sequence A is not equal to the length of amino acid sequence B, the % amino acid sequence identity between A and B will not equal the % sequence identity of amino acids between B and A. Unless specifically defined otherwise, all % amino acid sequence identity values used herein are obtained as described in the preceding paragraph using the ALIGN-2 computer program.

In one embodiment, the binding activity of an antibody or antigen binding molecule is measured by a radiolabeled antigen binding assay (RIA) and represented by the KD value. In one embodiment, a RIA is conducted with the Fab version of an antibody of interest and its antigen. For example, the solution binding affinity of Fab for antigen is measured by equilibrating the Fab with a minimal concentration of (125I)-labelled antigen in the presence of a titration series of unlabelled antigen, then capturing the bound antigen with a plate coated with the anti-Fab antibody (see, for example, Chen et al., J. Mol. Blol., 293: 865-881(1999)). To establish assay conditions, MICROTITER (Trade Mark) multiwell plates (Thermo Scientific) are coated overnight with 5 microgram / ml of an anti-Fab capture antibody (Cappel Labs) in 50 mM sodium carbonate (pH 9.6), and then blocked with 2% (w / v) of Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 122 bovine serum albumin in PBS for two to five hours at room temperature (approximately 23 degrees C). On a non-adsorbent plate (Nunc #: 269620), mix 100 pM or 26 pM [ 125 I]-antigen serial dilutions of a Fab of interest (eg, consistent with the evaluation of the anti-VEGF antibody, Fab-12 , in Presta et al., Cancer Res. 57: 45934599 (1997)). The Fab of interest is then incubated overnight; however, incubation may continue for a longer period (eg, about 65 hours) to ensure that equilibration is reached. The mixtures are then transferred to the capture plate for incubation at room temperature (eg, for one hour). The solution is then removed and the plate is washed eight times with 0.1% polysorbate 20 (TWEEN-20 (Trade Mark)) in PBS. When the plates are dry, 150 microliters / well scintillation fluid (MICROSCINT-20™; Packard) is added and the plates are counted in a TOPCOUNT™ gamma counter (Packard) for ten minutes. Concentrations of each Fab giving less than or equal to 20% maximum binding are chosen for use in competitive binding assays. In one embodiment, to measure the binding activity of an antibody, ligand capture methods are employed, for example, using BIACORE (trademark) T200 or BIACORE (trademark) 4000 (GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden), which Lnn / Lznz / Ε / ΥΙΛΙ 123 is based on surface plasmon resonance analysis methods as the measurement principle. The control software of BIACORE (registered trademark) is used for the operation of the devices. In one embodiment, an amine coupling kit (GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden) is used according to the supplier's instructions to attach a ligand-capture molecule, eg, an anti-label antibody, an anti-IgG antibody , protein A, etc. on a sensor chip (GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden) coated with carboxymethyldextran. The ligand capture molecule is diluted with 10 mM sodium acetate solution at an appropriate pH and injected at the appropriate flow rate and for the appropriate injection time. Measurements of binding activity are measured using a buffer containing 0.05% polysorbate 20 (other name: Tween (Trade Mark)-20) as measurement buffer, at a flow rate of 10-30 microliters / minute. and at a measurement temperature of preferably 25 degrees C or 37 degrees C. For measurement performed with an antibody captured by the ligand capture molecule as a ligand, an antibody is injected to allow the capture of an amount of interest of the captured antibody, and then a serial dilution of an antigen and / or an Fe receptor (analyte) that was prepared using the Fe buffer solution is injected. 124 measurement. For measurement performed with an antigen and / or Fe receptor captured by the ligand capture molecule as ligand, an antigen and / or Fe receptor is injected to allow the capture of an amount of interest thereof, and then a serial dilution of an antibody (analyte) that was prepared using the measurement buffer is injected. In one embodiment, the measurement results are analyzed using BIACORE (registered trademark) evaluation software. Kinetics parameter calculation is carried out by fitting association and dissociation sensorograms at the same time using a 1:1 binding model, and the association rate (kasOc or ka), the dissociation rate (kdisoc or kd ) and the equilibrium dissociation constant (KD). In the case of weak binding activity, particularly in cases where dissociation is rapid and kinetic parameters are difficult to calculate, the steady-state model can be used to calculate the equilibrium dissociation constant (KD). . As additional parameters relating to binding activity, the amount of analyte binding per unit amount of ligand can be calculated by dividing the amount of analyte binding (resonance unit: RU) at a specific concentration by an amount of the captured ligand.

First, an antibody between approximately 250 and 400 RU is captured by interaction of an antibody solution prepared using the running buffer with a chip already immobilized with Protein A Sure (GE Healthcare) on a Series S CM3 sensor chip. (GE Healthcare). Next, a solution of human CD137 prepared using a running buffer to which ATP has been added at a target concentration (eg, 1 mM, 10 mM, 50 mM, or 100 mM) and a solution of CD137 are interacted. prepared using a running buffer containing no ATP, to assess CD137 binding activity in the presence and Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 140 absence of ATP. The hCD137-HisBAP prepared by the method of Example (1-1) is used as human CD137 which is the antigen, and the measurement is carried out at antigen concentrations of 0 nM, 15.625 nM, 62.5 nM, 250 nM and 1000 nM, respectively. The chip is regenerated using 25 mM NaOH and 10 mM glycine-HCl (pH 1.5), and the measurement is performed by repeated capture of the antibodies. The dissociation constant of each antibody to human CD137 is calculated using the Biacore T200 2.0 evaluation software. Specifically, the binding rate constant ka (L / mol / s) and the dissociation rate constant kd (1 / s) are calculated by a global fit of the sensorogram obtained by a measurement using the Langmuir binding model 1 :1. The dissociation constant KD (mol / 1) is calculated from these values. In one embodiment, the binding activity of the anti-CD137 antibody to CD137 (preferably human CD137) can also be expressed as the amount of binding to CD137 per unit amount of antibody. Specifically, using the sensorograms obtained by the above assay method using BIACORE (Trade Mark) T200, the amount of CD137 binding to the antibody (RU) is divided by the amount of antibody captured to calculate the amount of CD137 binding per unit amount. of antibody. In one embodiment, the binding activity of the Anti-CD137 antibody to CD137 (preferably human CD137) can also be measured by the method described in Example 5-3 or 6-2.

In a specific embodiment, the target tissue-specific compound is a tumor tissue-specific compound. In a specific embodiment, a tumor tissue-specific compound is a metabolite produced by the specific metabolism of a tumor cell. The metabolite can be a product generated by metabolism essential for life activities (primary metabolite) or a product generated by metabolism that is not necessarily required for life activities (secondary metabolite). Examples of primary metabolites may include sugars, Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 146 proteins, lipids, nucleic acids and the like. Examples of secondary metabolites include antibiotics and dyes. The metabolite can be a biopolymer or a small molecule. In a specific embodiment, the biopolymer is a molecule having a molecular weight of about 5,000 or more, consisting of one or more types of repeating units including, for example, polysaccharides, polypeptides, and polynucleotides. In a specific embodiment, small molecules are molecules having a molecular weight of about 500 or less and are the chemical substances present in the living organism. In a further embodiment, the tumor tissue-specific compound is a small molecule metabolite produced specifically in tumor cells (Eva Gottfried, Katrin Peter and Marina P. Kreutz, in Molecular and Modular Tumor Therapy (2010) 3(2), 111- 132) . In a further embodiment, the tumor tissue-specific compound is a metabolite produced specifically by a cell infiltrating tumor tissue (eg, an immune cell) or a stromal cell (eg, a cancer-associated fibroblast (CAE). ) present in tumor tissue. Examples of immune cells that infiltrate tumor tissue are dendritic cells, suppressor dendritic cells, regulatory T cells, depleted T cells, suppressor cells 147 derived from myeloma (MDSC) and the like. In a further embodiment, a metabolite produced by cells present in tumor tissue (eg, tumor cells, immune cells, a stromal cell, etc.), that is released outside the cell when cells die by apoptosis or necrosis , or the like, may also be included in the tumor tissue-specific compound of the present disclosure. To identify a specific compound from tumor tissue, an analysis at the transcriptome level can be appropriately employed (eg, Dhanasekaran et al., (Nature (2001) 41 2, 822-826), Lapointe et al., (Proc. Nati . Acad. Sel. USA (2004) 101, 811-816), or Perou et al., (Nature (2000) 406, 747-752)), an analysis at the proteome level (for example, Ahram et al., (Mol. Carcinog. (2002) 33, 9-15), and Hood et al., (Mol. Cell. Proteomics (2005) 4, 1741-1753)) and metabolomic analysis focused on the determination of the metabolomic profile (metabolomics ). That is, in order to identify a metabolite in a sample under study, one can conveniently use high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) (Brindle et al., (J. Mol. Recognit. (1997 ) 10, 182-187)), mass spectrometry (GC / MS and LC / MS) (Gates and Sweeley (Clin. Chem. (1978) 24, 16631673)) and metabolic profiling using Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 148 ELISA and the like, either alone and / or in combination. In a specific embodiment, the tumor tissue-specific compound comprises at least one compound that is selected from the group consisting of: nucleosides having a purine ring structure, amino acids and metabolites thereof, lipids and metabolites thereof, metabolites primary carbohydrate metabolism, as well as nicotinamide and its metabolites. In a further embodiment, the tumor tissue-specific compound is at least one compound selected from the following (1) to (6): (1) nucleosides having a purine structure such as adenosine (ADO), adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP), adenosine monophosphate (AMP), and inosine; (2) amino acids such as alanine, glutamic acid, and aspartic acid; (3) metabolites of amino acids such as kynurenine, anthranilic acid, 3-hydroxykynurenine and kynurenic acid; (4) arachidonic acid metabolites such as prostaglandin E2; (5) primary metabolites of the glycolytic pathway or Krebs cycle, such as lactic acid, succinic acid, and citric acid; and, Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 149 (6) metabolites of nicotinamide such as 1-methylnicotinamide. (1) Nucleosides having, a purine structure such as adenosine (ADO), adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP), adenosine monophosphate (AMP) and inosine; It is known that when immoral cells undergo cell death, a large amount of intracellular ATP is leaked. Therefore, the ATP concentration in tumor tissue is significantly higher than that in normal tissue (PLoS One; (2008) 3, e2599). AMP is metabolized by cell surface enzymes such as extracellular 5'nucleotidase (eco-5'-nucleotidase) (CD73) (Resta and Thompson (Immunol. Rev. (1998) 161, 95-109) and Sadej et al. ., (Melanoma Res., (2006) 16, 21 3-222)). Adenosine is a purine nucleoside that is constitutively present at low concentrations in the extracellular environment, but a marked increase in extracellular adenosine concentration has been reported in hypoxic tissues present in solid tumors (Blay and Hoskin (Cancer Res ., (1997) 57, 260 2-2605) ) . CD73 is expressed on the surface of tumors and immune cells (Kobie et al., (J. Immunol. (2006) 17 7, 6780-6786)) and elevated activity has been observed in breast cancer (Canbolat et al ., (Breast Cancer Res. Treat. (1996) 37, 189-193)), stomach cancer (Durak 150 et al., (Cancer Lett., (1994) 84, 199-202)), pancreatic cancer (Flocke and Mannherz (Biochim. Biophys. Acta (1991) 1076, 273-281)) and glioblastomas (Bardot et al. ., (Br. J. Cancer (1994) 70, 212-218) ). It has been proposed that the accumulation of adenosine in tumor tissue is the result of increased dephosphorylation of AMP by cytoplasmic 5'nucleotidase (Headrick and Willis (Biochem. J. (1989) 261, 541-550)). In addition, regulatory T cells infiltrating tumor tissue also express ATPase and produce adenosine (Proc. Nati. Acad. Sel. USA (2006) 103(35), 13132-13137; Curr. Med. Chem. (2011) 18: 5217-5223). The produced adenosine is believed to maintain tumor tissues in an immunosuppressive environment via adenosine receptors such as the A2A receptor ( Curr. Med. Chem. (2011) 18, 5217-5223 ). Therefore, ATP, ADP, AMP, adenosine and the like, which are considered to accumulate to a high concentration in tumor tissue due to purine nucleotide metabolism, are examples of tumor tissue-specific compounds used in the present disclosure. Additionally, as adenosine is broken down to inosine by adenosine deaminase, inosine accumulates to a high concentration. In a specific embodiment, nucleosides having a purine ring structure include adenosine-containing compounds. In specific modalities, the Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 151 adenosine-containing compounds include, for example, adenosine (ADO), adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP), adenosine monophosphate (AMP), cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), deoxyadenosine (dADO), deoxyadenosine triphosphate (dATP) , deoxyadenosine diphosphate (dADP), deoxyadenosine monophosphate (dAMP), adenosine [gthio]triphosphate (ATPgS) and the like. In another embodiment, nucleosides having a purine ring structure include inosine, which is a metabolite of adenosine. Furthermore, in a specific embodiment, nucleosides having a purine ring structure include commercially available nucleosides having a purine ring structure such as ADPbetaS (Sigma Inc.). (2) Amino acids such as alanine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid The rate of uptake of glutamine, which acts as a nitrogen transporter in the living body, is increased in tumor cells, and glutamine uptake and resulting conversion to glutamic acid and lactic acid (glutamine degradation (glutaminolysis)) is thought to ) are characteristic of tumor cells (Mazurek and Eigenbrodt (Antícancer Res., (2003) 23, 1149-1154, and Mazurek et al., (J. Cell. Physiol. (1999) 181, 136-146). of glutamine in plasma decreases Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 152 in cancer patients, while the glutamic acid concentration increases (Droge et al., (Immunobiology (1987) 174, 473-479)), and studies on the metabolism of 13C-labeled glucose in cancer tissue Lung samples showed a correlation between the concentrations of 13C-labeled succinic acid, 13C-labeled alanine, 13C-labeled glutamic acid, and 13C-labeled citrate. For these reasons, alanine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and the like, which are believed to accumulate at high concentrations in tumor tissue due to, for example, glutamine degradation, are examples of tumor tissue-specific compounds used in this technique. description. (3) Amino acid metabolites such as kynurenine, anthranilic acid, 3-hydroxykynurenine and kynurenic acid; Indolamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) is a tryptophan-metabolizing enzyme highly expressed in many types of cancer such as melanoma, colon cancer, kidney cancer and the like (Uyttenhove et al., (Nat. Med. (2003) 9, 1269-1274) ). IDO catalyzes the conversion of tryptophan to kynurenine. In gliomas that do not express IDO, tryptophan produces tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) in the liver (Opitz et al., (Nature (2011) 478(7368), 197-203)). IDO is also expressed on dendritic cells that infiltrate tumor tissue, and dendritic cells Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 153 also produce kynurenine (J. Immunol. (2008). In addition, IDO is also expressed in myeloma-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) from tumor tissues, and MDSCs also produce kynurenine (Yu et al., (J. Immunol. (2013) 190, 3783-3797).) Kynurenine is converted to anthranilic acid by kynureninase, and to 3-hydroxykynurenine by kynurenine 3-hydroxylase.Both anthranilic acid and 3-hydroxynurenine are converted to 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid, a precursor of NAD.Kynurenine is converted to kynurenic acid by kynurenic aminotransferase.For these reasons, kynurenine and its metabolite, i.e., anthranilic acid, 3-hydroxykynurenine, kynurenic acid and the like, are examples of tissue-specific compounds tumor that are used in the present description, in particular, the specific metabolites of tumor cells. (4) Arachidonic acid metabolites such as prostaglandin E2 Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) promotes the growth of colon cancer cells and suppresses their apoptosis (Sheng et al., (Cancer Res., (1998) 58, 362-366)). Among the PGE2 synthetases, it has been found that mainly COX-1 is expressed constitutively in almost all tissues, while COX-2 is induced by certain inflammatory cytokines and oncogenes in tumors (Warner and Mitchell (FASEB J. (2004) Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 154 18, 790-804)). COX-2 overexpression has been reported to be associated with poor prognosis in breast cancer (Denkert et al., {Clin. Breast Cancer (2004) 4, 428-433)) and rapid disease progression in the ovarian cancer (Denker et al., (Mod. Pathol. (2006) 19, 1261-1269)). Furthermore, regulatory T cells infiltrating tumor tissue also produce PGE2 (Curr. Med. Chem. (2011) 18, 5217-5223). For these reasons, arachidonic acid metabolites such as PGE2 are examples of tumor tissue-specific compounds, in particular tumor cell-specific metabolites or tumor tissue-infiltrating immune cell-specific metabolites. In addition to PGE2, thromboxane A2 (TXA2) production is increased in tumor tissues such as colon cancer (J. Lab. Clin. Med. (1993) 122, 518-523). (5) Primary metabolites of the glycolytic pathway or Krebs cycle, such as lactic acid, succinic acid, and citric acid The glycolytic phenotype characterized by upregulation of glycolytic enzymes (Embden-Meyerhof pathway) such as pyruvate kinase, hexokinase, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is conventionally known as the Warburg effect, a feature of solid tumors. Lactic acid, which is the end product of glycolysis, as well as succinic acid and citric acid, are known to Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 155 produced by the Krebs cycle, accumulate in tumor tissues (Teresa et al., (Mol. Cáncer (2009) 8, 41-59)). Due to these reasons, lactic acid, succinic acid, citric acid and the like, which are primary metabolites produced by glycolysis, are examples of tumor tissue-specific compounds, in particular tumor cell-specific metabolites, which are used in the present disclosure. . Furthermore, it is known that due to cell death, succinate, which is present at a high concentration in cells, leaks out of cells (Nature Immunology, (2008) 9, 1261-1269). This is believed to be the reason for the increased concentration of succinic acid in tumor tissues, where cell death is common. (6) Nicotinamide metabolites such as 1-methylnicotinamide. Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase is known to be highly expressed in a variety of human tumor tissues. It is also known that 1-methyl-nicotinamide, which is a stable metabolite of nicotinamide produced by this enzyme, is secreted out of tumor cells (Yamada et al., (J. Nutr. Sci. Vitaminol. (2010 ) 56, 83-86)). For this reason, 1-methylnicotinamide, and the like, which are believed to accumulate in tumor tissue at a high concentration as a result of nicotinamide metabolism, are examples of the specific compounds of the drug. Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 156 tumor tissue that are used in the present description. An antigen binding molecule of the present disclosure comprises an antigen binding domain.

The constant region can be a heavy chain constant region (including an Fe region), a light chain constant region, or both. In a further aspect, anti-CD137 antibody or antigen binding molecules comprise an Fc region. In some embodiments, the constant region is that which comprises the native sequence. Examples of heavy chain constant regions derived from native antibodies include, for example, a human IgG1 heavy chain constant region (SEQ ID NO: Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 180 61, 62), human IgG2, human IgG3, human IgG4 and the like. Examples of light chain constant regions derived from native antibodies include, for example, the human kappa chain, the human lambda chain (eg, SEQ ID NO: 63), and the like. An altered parental constant region or Fe used herein refers to the constant region or an Fe region prior to introducing one or more amino acid alterations described herein. A parent antigen binding molecule refers to an antigen binding molecule comprising the parent constant region or the parent Fe region. In some embodiments, the parent Fc region is an Fc region having a native sequence (or an Fc region of a native antibody). Antibodies include, for example, IgA (IgAl, IgA2), IgD, IgE, IgG (IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4), IgM, etc. The antibodies may be derived from humans or monkeys (eg, cynomolgus, rhesus macaque, marmoset, chimpanzee, or baboon). Native antibodies can also include naturally occurring mutations. A plurality of IgG allotype sequences due to genetic polymorphism are described in Sequences of proteins of immunological interest, NIH publication No. 91-3242, and any of them may be used in the present disclosure. In one embodiment, the parent Fe region is an Fe region derived from a constant region Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 181 of the human IgG1 heavy chain, shown in SEQ ID NO: 61, 62 or 182. In one aspect, anti-CD137 antigen-binding molecules or antibodies have a higher isoelectric point (pl), compared to anti-CD137 antigen-binding molecules or antibodies comprising a native Fc region sequence or a parental Fe region. In some embodiments, the variant Fe regions include at least one amino acid alteration. In additional embodiments, amino acid alteration leads to elevation of the isoelectric point (pl) of the variant Fe region compared to the original Fe region. Without regard to any particular theory, it is believed that the pH of biological fluids (eg, plasma) is in a neutral pH range. In biological fluids, the net positive charge of an antigen- or antibody-binding molecule is increased due to the larger pl and, as a result, the antigen- or antibody-binding molecule is more strongly attracted by the Coulomb physicochemical interaction to the endothelial cell surface that has a net negative charge compared to an antibody or antigen-binding molecule that does not have an increased pI. In this way, the molecules binding to the agonist antigen (or antibodies), or the binding molecules to the antigen (or antibodies) bound by an agonist are Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 182 can be brought closer to the surface of cells expressing the Fc-gamma receptor, resulting in increased binding of antigen-binding molecules or antibodies to cells expressing Fc-gamma. In the case of those antigen-binding molecules or agonist anti-CD137 antibodies that exhibit CD137 agonist activity based on the contribution by Fc-gamma receptor binding activity, the antigen-binding molecules or anti-CD137 antibodies Agonists exhibiting increased binding to cells expressing the Fc-gamma receptor due to amino acid alterations that increase pI may exhibit stronger CD137 agonist activity compared to antigen-binding molecules or anti-CD137 antibodies agonists that do not comprise amino acid alterations that increase pl. In the present description, the pl may be a theoretical pl or an experimentally determined pl. The pl value can be determined, for example, by isoelectric focusing known to those skilled in the art. The value of a theoretical pl can be calculated, for example, using amino acid and gene sequence analysis software (Genetyx, etc.). By performing calculations, the properties of an antibody can be reflected in a calculation formula. For example, (i) in general, the Cys conserved in an antibody forms a disulfide bond and carries no charge Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 183 electric in the side chain; therefore, such Cys can be excluded from the calculation and only free Cys that do not form disulfide bonds will be included in the calculation. Alternatively, (ii) the charge state or isoelectric point of antibodies may change due to post-translational modifications; therefore, the calculation formula can be modified as follows, taking into account such post-translational modifications: (a) when the N-terminus of the heavy chain is Q (glutamine), the N-terminal group is excluded from the calculation, assuming that pyroglutamylation occurs, (b) when the C-terminus of the heavy chain is K (Usin), K (only one residue) is excluded from the calculation, assuming truncation occurs; and (c) the side chains of all Cs (cysters) present in generally conserved positions are excluded from the calculation, assuming that all these Cs form disulfide bonds within the molecule. In a preferred embodiment, both (i) and (ii) described above can be reflected in the calculation formula. In one embodiment, the value of pl can be increased, for example, by at least 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 or more, by at least 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9 or more, in at least 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5 or more or by at least 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 3.0 or more, compared to the previous modification.

The combination of TCR activation with agonist anti-CD137 antibodies increases the proliferation of Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 202 T cells, stimulates lymphokine secretion and reduces the sensitivity of T lymphocytes to activation-induced cell death (reviewed in Snelet al., 2011). Among those events, the physiological events observed after CD137 signaling on T cells are mediated by signals downstream activated by CD137 signaling, such as TRAF2, TRAF1, in particular NF-kappaB, JNK, Erk, Akt, survivin, Bcl-XL, and / or Bcl-2 (Ward-Kavanagh et al., Immunity, 44:1005 (2016)). In one embodiment, the agonist anti-CD137 antigen binding molecule or agonist anti-CD137 antibody is an antibody or antigen binding molecule that, by binding to CD137, transduces the CD137 signal and significantly induces or enhances IFN secretion. -yamma, proliferation and increased survival of NK cells; DC activation indicated by upregulation of secretion of cytokines and costimulatory molecules; TCR induction; T cell proliferation; and / or secretion of lymphokines. In a different embodiment, the agonist anti-CD137 antigen binding molecule or agonist anti-CD137 antibody is an antibody or antigen binding molecule that transduces the CD137 signal by binding to CD137 on T cells, and significantly induces activation of CD137. NF-kappaB on T cells. In addition, the antigen-binding molecule or an antibody shows agonist activity of Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 203 CD137 refers to any of the above-mentioned physiological phenomena being observed when the antigen-binding molecule or antibody binds to CD137. The method for measuring CD137 agonist activity is described in detail below in section C. Assays. In a specific embodiment, the anti-CD137 antibody or antigen binding molecule of the present disclosure has a small molecule compound-dependent CD137 agonist activity. In a non-limiting embodiment, the anti-CD137 antibody or antigen binding molecule of the present disclosure has small molecule compound-dependent CD137 agonist activity. In a different embodiment, the CD137 agonist activity of the anti-CD137 antigen-binding molecule or antibody in the presence of a high concentration of a small molecule compound is greater compared to the CD137 agonist activity in the presence of a low concentration of the small molecule compound. small molecule compound. In a further embodiment, the CD137 agonist activity of the anti-CD137 antibody or antigen binding molecule in the presence of a small molecule compound is 2-fold or more, 3-fold or more, 5-fold or more, 10-fold or more, 20 times or more, 30 times or more, 50 times or more, 100 times or more, 200 times or more, 300 times or more, 500 times or more, 1 x 103 times or more, 2 x 103 times or more, 3 x 103 times or more, 5 x 103 times or more, 1 204 χ 104-fold or more, 2 x 104-fold or more, 3 x 104-fold or more, 5 x 104-fold or more, or 1 χ 105-fold or more, compared to CD137 agonist activity in the absence of the small molecule compound. Any suitable concentration may be selected as the concentration of the small molecule compound as long as a difference in the binding activity of the anti-CD137 antigen or antibody binding molecule is detected. In one embodiment, the anti-CD137 antibody or antigen binding molecule transduces the CD137 signal by binding to CD137 on the cell surface. Therefore, one skilled in the art will understand that anti-CD137 antibody or antigen binding molecule that exhibits a small molecule compound-dependent CD137 binding activity has a small molecule compound-dependent CD137 agonist activity. However, on the other hand, since the methods for measuring binding activity and agonist activity are different, one skilled in the art will understand that the concentration of a small molecule compound for which a difference in binding activity is detected binding may be different from the concentration of the small molecule compound for which a difference in agonist activity is detected (for example, for an anti-CD137 antigen-binding molecule or antibody whose binding activity to CD137 in the presence of a Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 205 small molecule compound at 10 μΜ is 2-fold or more compared to the CD137 binding activity in the absence of the small molecule compound, the agonist activity of CD137 (assay value) in the presence of the small molecule compound at 10 μΜ may be less than 2-fold compared to the CD137 agonist activity (assay value) in the absence of the small molecule compound). Furthermore, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the determination of agonist activity may vary depending on the CD137 agonist activity assay (see C. Assays). In one embodiment, the anti-CD137 antibody or antigen binding molecule (i) exhibits CD137 agonist activity in the presence of a small molecule compound at 10 μΜ, 5 0 μΜ, 10 0 μΜ, 150 μΜ, 2 0 0 μΜ ο 250 μΜ, and (i i) has substantially no CD137 agonist activity in the absence of the small molecule compound, or has low CD137 agonist activity in the absence of the small molecule compound (as compared to the presence of the small molecule compound).

Antibody fragments In certain embodiments, an antibody provided herein is an antibody fragment. Antibody fragments include, but are not limited to, Fab, Fab', Fab'-SH, F(ab')2, Fv and scFv fragments, and other fragments to be described below. For a review of some antibody fragments, see Hudson et al., Nat. Med. 9: 129-134 (2003). For a review of scFv fragments, see, eg, Pluckthun, in The Pharmacology of Monoclonal Antibodies, Volume 113, Rosenburg and Moore eds., (Springer-Verlag, New York), pages 269-315 (1994); see also WO 93 / 16185; and US Patent Nos: 5,571,894 and 5,587,458. For a description of Fab and F(ab')2 fragments comprising rescue receptor-binding epitope residues and having a longer half-life in vivo, see US Patent No: 5,869,046. Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 211 Diabodies or diabodies are antibody fragments with two antigen-binding sites that can be bivalent or bispecific. See, for example, EP 404,097; WO 1993 / 01161; Hudson et al., Nat. Med. 9: 129-134 (2003); and Hollinger et al., Proc. nati. Acad. Sel. USA 90: 6444-6448 (1993). Triabodies and tetrabodies are also described in Hudson et al., Nat. Med. 9: 129-134 (2003). Single domain antibodies are antibody fragments comprising all or a portion of the heavy chain variable domain or all or a portion of the light chain variable domain of an antibody. In certain embodiments, a single domain antibody is a human single domain antibody (Domantis, Inc., Waltham, MA; see, for example, US Patent No: 6,248,516 Bl). Antibody fragments can be made by a number of techniques including, but not limited to, proteolytic digestion of an intact antibody as well as production by recombinant host cells (eg, E. coli or phage), as described herein. . 3. Chimeric and humanized antibodies In certain embodiments, an antibody provided herein is a chimeric antibody. Some chimeric antibodies are described, for example, in US Patent No: 4,816,567; and Morrison et al., Proc. nati. 212 Acad. Sci. USA, 81: 6851-6855 (1984)). In one example, a chimeric antibody comprises a non-human variable region (eg, a variable region derived from a mouse, rat, hamster, rabbit, or non-human primate, such as a monkey) and a human constant region. In another example, a chimeric antibody is a class-switched antibody in which the class or subclass has changed from that of the parent antibody. Chimeric antibodies include antigen-binding fragments thereof. In certain embodiments, a chimeric antibody is a humanized antibody. Typically, a non-human antibody will be humanized to reduce immunogenicity in humans, while preserving the specificity and affinity of the parent non-human antibody. In general, a humanized antibody comprises one or more variable domains in which the HVRs, eg, CDRs (or portions thereof) are derived from a non-human antibody, and the FRs (or portions thereof) are derived from antibody sequences. humans. A humanized antibody will optionally also comprise at least a portion of a human constant region. In some embodiments, some FR residues in a humanized antibody are replaced by corresponding residues in a non-human antibody (eg, the antibody from which the HVR residues are derived), for example, to restore or improve specificity or affinity. of the 213 antibody . Humanized antibodies and methods for making them are reviewed, for example, in Almagro and Fransson, Front. Biosci. 13: 1619-1633 (2008), and are also described, for example, in Riechmann et al., Nature 332: 323-329 (1988); Queen et al., Proc. Nati Acad. Sci. USA 86: 10029-10033 (1989); US Patent Nos: 5,821,337, 7,527,791, 6,982, 321 and 7,087,409; Kashmiri et al., Methods 36: 25-34 (2005) (discussing the grafting of specificity determining regions (SDRs)); Padlan, Mol. Immunol. 28: 489-498 (1991) (describing resurfacing); Dalí' Acqua et al., Methods 36: 43-60 (2005) (discussing FR interleaving); and Osboum et al., Methods 36: 61-68 (2005) and Klimka et al., Br. J. Cancer, 83: 252-260 (2000) (describing the guided selection approach to FR interleaving). Human framework regions that can be used for humanization include, but are not limited to: framework regions selected using the best fit method (see, for example, Sims et al., J. Immunol. 151: 2296 ( 1993)); framework regions derived from the human antibody consensus sequence of a particular subset of heavy or light chain variable regions (see, for example, Carter et al., Proc. Nati. Acad. Sci. USA, 89: 4285 (1992 ), and Presta et al., J. Immunol., 151: Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 214 2623 (1993)); mature (somatically mutated) human framework regions or human germline framework regions (see, eg, Almagro and Fransson, Front. Biosci. 13: 1619-1633 (2008)); and framework regions derived from selection in FR libraries (see, for example, Baca et al., J. Biol. Chem. 2Ί2ι 10678-10684 (1997) and Rosok et al., J. Biol. Chem. 271: 22611-22618 (1996)). 4. Human antibodies In certain embodiments, an antibody provided herein is a human antibody. Human antibodies can be produced using various techniques known in the art. Human antibodies are generally described in van Dijk and van de Winkel, Curr. Opinion. Pharmacol. 5: 368-74 (2001) and Lonberg, Curr. Opinion. Immunol. 20: 450-459 (2008). Human antibodies can be prepared by administering an immunogen to a transgenic animal that has been modified to produce intact human antibodies or intact antibodies with human variable regions in response to an antigenic challenge. Such animals typically contain all or a portion of the human immunoglobulin loci, which replace the endogenous immunoglobulin loci, or which are present extrachromosomally or randomly integrated into the animal's chromosomes. In such transgenic mice, the loci of the Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 215 Endogenous Immunoglobulins. For a review of methods for obtaining human antibodies from transgenic animals, see Lonberg, Nat. Biotech. 23: 1117-1125 (2005). See, for example, US Patent Nos: 6,075,181 and 6,150,584 which describe the XENOMOUSE™ technology; US Patent No: 5,770,429 describing the HuMab technology (registered trademark); US Patent No: 7,041,870 describing the K-M MICE technology (registered trademark) and US Patent Application Publication No: US 2007 / 0061900 describing the VelociMouse technology (registered trademark)). Human variable regions of intact antibodies generated by such animals can be further modified, for example, by combination with a different human constant region. Human antibodies can also be made by hybridoma-based methods. Human myeloma and mouse-human heteromyeloma cell lines have been described for the production of human monoclonal antibodies. (See, for example, Kozbor J. Immunol., 133: 3001 (1984); Brodeur et al., Monoclonal Antibody Production Techniques and Applications, pages 51-63 (Marcel Dekker, Inc., New York, 1987); and Boerner et al., J. Immunol., 147: 86 (1991).) Human antibodies generated by human B-cell hybridoma technology are also Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 216 describe in Li et al., Proc. nati. Acad. Sci. USA, 103: 3557-3562 (2006). Additional methods include those described, for example, in US Patent No: 7,189,826 (describing the production of human IgM monoclonal antibodies from hybridoma cell lines) and in Ni, Xiandai Mianyixue, 26(4): 265-268 (2006) (describing human-human hybridomas). Human hybridoma technology (Trioma technology) is also described in Vollmers and Brandlein, Histology and Histopathology, 20(3): 927-937 (2005) and Vollmers and Brandlein, Methods and Findings in Experimental and Clinical Pharmacology, 27 (3): 185-91 (2005). Human antibodies can also be generated by isolating selected Fv clone variable domain sequences from among human-derived phage display libraries. Such variable domain sequences can then be combined with the desired human constant domain. Techniques for selecting human antibodies from antibody libraries are described below. 5. Library-Derived Antibodies The antibodies of the present disclosure can be isolated by screening in combinatorial libraries for antibodies with the desired activities. For example, a variety of methods are known in the art for generating phage display libraries and selecting such Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 217 libraries consistent with antibodies exhibiting the desired binding characteristics. Such methods are reviewed, for example, in Hoogenboom et al., in Methods in Molecular Blology 178: 1-37 (O'Brien et al., ed., Human Press, Totowa, NJ, 2001) and are also described, for For example, in McCafferty et al., Nature 348: 552-554; Clackson et al., Nature 352: 624-628 (1991); Marks et al., J. Mol. Biol. 222: 581-597 (1992); Marks and Bradbury, in Methods in Molecular Blology 248: 161-175 (Lo, ed., Human Press, Totowa, NJ, 2003); Sidhu et al., J. Mol. Biol. 338(2): 299-310 (2004); Lee et al., J. Mol. Biol. 340(5): 1073-1093 (2004); Fellouse, Proc. nati. Acad. Sci. USA 101(34): 12467-12472 (2004); and Lee et al., J. Immunol. Methods 284(1-2): 119-132(2004). In certain phage display methods, the VH and VL gene repertoires are cloned separately by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and randomly recombined into phage libraries, which can then be screened for phage-binding phage. antigen as described in Winter et al., Ann. Rev. Immunol., 12: 433-455 (1994). Phage typically display antibody fragments, either as single chain Fv (scFv) fragments or as Fab fragments. Immunized source libraries provide high affinity antibodies to the immunogen without the need to construct hybridomas. Alternatively, previously unused repertoire can be Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 218 cloning (eg, from humans) to provide a single source of antibodies against a wide variety of non-self and also self antigens without any immunization as described in Griffiths et al., EMBO J, 12: 725-734 (1993) . Finally, previously unused libraries can also be made synthetically by cloning unrearranged V gene segments from stem cells, and using PCR primers containing a random sequence to encode the highly variable CDR3 regions and to achieve in vitro rearrangement. , as described by Hoogenboom and Winter, J. Mol. Biol., 227: 381-388 (1992). Patent publications describing human antibody phage libraries include, for example: US Patent Nos: 5,750,373 and US Patent Publication Nos: 2005 / 0079574, 2005 / 0119455, 2005 / 0266000, 2007 / 0117126, 2007 / 0160598, 2007 / 0237764, 2007 / 0292936 and 2009 / 0002360. Antibodies, or antibody fragments, isolated from human antibody libraries are considered herein as human antibodies or human antibody fragments. Antigen-binding molecules or antibodies having an antigen-binding activity dependent on a low molecular weight compound of the present disclosure can be selected by performing a Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 219 selection in a library of antigen-binding molecules. The combinatorial libraries described above can be used as such a library. The library of antigen binding molecules can be found with an unbiased repertoire of antigen binding molecules (previously unused library) or it can be found with a biased repertoire of antigen binding molecules. Examples of the latter type of library include a library of antigen-binding molecules that have been conferred in advance with binding activity to a specific compound. In a certain embodiment, a library of antigen-binding molecules is a library of antigen-binding molecules to which an amino acid alteration has been introduced in advance that confers binding activity to a specific compound. Examples of such a type of library include the libraries that are described, for example, in the International publication WO 2015 / 083764. 6. Multispecies antibodies In certain embodiments, an antibody provided herein is a multispecific antibody, eg, a bispecific antibody. Multispecies antibodies are monoclonal antibodies that have binding specificities for at least two different sites. In certain embodiments, one of the binding specificities is for CD137 and the other is 220 for any other antigen. In certain embodiments, bispecific antibodies can bind to two different CD137 epitopes. Bispecific antibodies can also be used to localize cytotoxic agents to cells expressing CD137. Bispecific antibodies can be prepared as full length antibodies or as antibody fragments. In one embodiment, the antigen-binding molecules or anti-CD137 antibodies of the present disclosure are bispecific antibodies, one arm of which has CD137-binding activity dependent on a small molecule compound and the other arm binds a different antigen. from CD137. The non-CD137 antigen is not particularly limited in structure. In other words, the antigen may comprise inorganic or organic substances. Examples of antigens are described in the present Description (eg, IV. Compositions and methods (antigen-binding molecules whose antigen-binding activity changes depending on the concentration of a small molecule compound), B. Antigens). In one embodiment, the antigens are preferably antigens expressed on cancer cells, immune cells, stromal cells, or the like in cancerous tissues or inflammatory tissues. Techniques for making antibodies Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 221 Multispecies Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ include, but are not limited to, recombinant co-expression of two pairs of immunoglobulin heavy chains and light chains having different specificities (see Milstein and Cuello, Nature 305: 537 (1983)), WO 93 / 08829 and Traunecker et al., EMBO J. 10: 3655 (1991)), and buttonhole engineering (see, for example, US Patent No: 5,731,168). Multispecies antibodies can also be made by genetic engineering of electrostatic targeting effects to produce heterochimeric antibody Fe molecules (WO 2009 / 089004A1); cross-linking of two or more antibodies or fragments (see, for example, US Patent No: 4,676,980, and Brennan et al., Science, 229: 81 (1985)); use of leucine locks to produce bispecific antibodies (see, eg, Kostelny et al., J. Immunol., 148(5):1547-1553 (1992)); use of diabody technology to obtain bispecific antibody fragments (see, eg, Hollinger et al., Proc. Nati. Acad. Sci. USA, 90: 6444-6448 (1993)); and the use of single chain Fv (scFv) dimers (see, for example, Gruber et al., J. Immunol., 152: 5368 (1994)); and preparation of trispecific antibodies as described, for example, in Tutt et al., J. Immunol. 147: 60 (1991). Antibodies modified with three or more sites 222 functional antigen-binding antibodies, including Octopus antibodies, are also included herein (see, for example, US 2006 / 0025576A1). The present antibody or fragment also includes a dual acting Fab or DAF comprising an antigen binding site that binds to CD137 as well as a different antigen (see eg US 2008 / 0069820). 7. Antibody variants In certain embodiments, amino acid sequence variants of the antibodies provided herein are contemplated. For example, it may be desirable to improve the binding affinity and / or other biological properties of the antibody. Amino acid sequence variants of an antibody can be prepared by introducing appropriate modifications to the nucleotide sequence encoding the antibody or by peptide synthesis. Such modifications include, for example, deletions and / or insertions and / or substitutions of residues in the amino acid sequences of the antibody. Any combination of deletion, insertion, and substitution can be used to obtain the final construct, as long as the final construct possesses the desired characteristics, eg, antigen binding. a) Substitution, insertion and deletion variants In certain embodiments, variants are provided Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 223 Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ of antibodies comprising one or more amino acid substitutions. Sites of interest for substitutional mutagenesis include HVRs and FRs. Conservative substitutions are shown in Table 1, under the heading of preferred substitutions. Further substantive changes are provided in Table 1 under the heading of exemplary substitutions, and are described below with reference to classes of amino acid side chains. Amino acid substitutions can be introduced into an antibody of interest and the products selected for a desired activity, eg, retained / enhanced antigen binding, decreased immunogenicity, or enhanced ADCC or CDC.

None of the conservative substitutions will involve exchanging a member of one of these classes for another class. One type of substitutional variant comprises substituting one or more hypervariable region residues of a parent antibody (eg, a humanized or human antibody). In general, the resulting variants selected for further study will have Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 225 modifications (eg, improvements) in certain biological properties (eg, increased affinity, reduced immunogenicity) relative to the parent antibody and / or will have substantially retained some biological properties of the parent antibody. An example of a substitutional variant is an affinity-matured antibody, which can be conveniently generated, for example, using phage display-based affinity maturation techniques such as those described herein. Briefly, one or more HVR residues are mutated and the antibody variants are displayed on phage and selected for a particular biological activity (eg, binding affinity). Alterations (eg, substitutions) can be made in HVR, for example, to improve the affinity of the antibodies. Such alterations can be made at HVR hot spots, that is, at residues encoded by codons that undergo mutations with high frequency during the process of somatic maturation (see, for example, Chowdhury, Methods Mol. Biol. 207: 17 9196 (2008)), and / or on residues contacting the antigen, and the resulting VH or VL variant is evaluated for binding affinity. Affinity maturation by construction and reselection of secondary libraries has been described, for example, in Hoogenboom et al. Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 226 al., in Methods in Molecular Biology 178: 1-37 (O'Brien et al., Ed., Human Press, Totowa, NJ, (2001)). In some embodiments of affinity maturation, diversity is introduced into the variable genes selected for maturation by any of a variety of methods (eg, error-prone PCR, strand interleaving, or oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis). Then a child library is created. The library is then screened to identify any antibody variants with the desired affinity. Another method of introducing diversity comprises HVR-directed approaches, in which several HVR residues are randomly assigned (eg, 4-6 residues at a time). HVR residues involved in antigen binding can be specifically identified, for example, using mutagenesis or alanine scanning patterning. In particular, CDR-H3 and CDRL3 are often searched for. In certain embodiments, they can produce substitutions, insertions, or deletions within one or more HVRs as long as such alterations do not substantially reduce the ability of the antibody to bind antigen. For example, conservative alterations (eg, the conservative substitutions provided herein) can be made that do not substantially reduce the binding affinity in HVRs. Such alterations can 227 can be found, for example, outside the antigen-contacting residues in HVRs. In certain embodiments of the variant VH and VL sequences provided above, each HVR is either unaltered or contains no more than one, two, or three amino acid substitutions. A useful method for identifying residues or regions of an antibody that can be targeted for mutagenesis is called alanine scanning mutagenesis as described in Cunningham and Wells (1989) Science, 244: 1081-1085. In this method, a target residue or group of residues (for example, charged residues such as arg, asp, his, lys, and glu) is identified and replaced with a negatively charged or neutral amino acid (for example, alanine or polyalanine). ) to determine if the interaction of the antibody with the antigen is affected. Other substitutions can be introduced at amino acid locations that demonstrate functional sensitivity to the initial substitutions. Alternatively, or additionally, the crystal structure of an antigen-antibody complex can be analyzed to identify contact points between the antibody and the antigen. Such contact residues and neighboring residues can be selected or eliminated as candidates for substitution. Variants can be selected to determine if they contain the properties Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 228 desired. Amino acid sequence insertions include amino- and / or carboxy-terminal fusions ranging in length from one residue to polypeptides containing one hundred or more residues, as well as intrasequence insertions of single or multiple amino acid residues. Examples of terminal insertions include an antibody with an N-terminal methionyl residue. Other insertion variants of the antibody molecule include the fusion of an enzyme (eg, for ADEPT) or polypeptide into the N- or C-terminus of the antibody that increases the plasma half-life of the antibody. b) Glycosylation variants In certain embodiments, an antibody provided herein is altered to increase or decrease the degree to which the antibody is glycosylated. The addition or deletion of glycosylation sites in an antibody can be conveniently effected by altering the amino acid sequence such that one or more glycosylation sites are created or deleted. When the antibody comprises an Fe region, the carbohydrate attached to it can be altered. Native antibodies produced by mammalian cells typically comprise a branched double-stranded oligosaccharide that is generally linked by a bond. Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 229 N to Asn297 of the CH2 domain of the Fe region. See, for example, Wright et al., TIBTECH 15: 26-32 (1997). The oligosaccharide can include various carbohydrates, for example, mannose, N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), galactose, and sialic acid, as well as a fucose attached to a GlcNAc in the stem of the double-stranded oligosaccharide structure. In some embodiments, oligosaccharide modifications of an antibody of the present disclosure can be made to create antibody variants with certain improved properties. In one embodiment, variant antibodies are provided that have a carbohydrate structure that lacks a fucose attached (directly or indirectly) to an Fe region. For example, the amount of fucose in such an antibody can comprise between 1% and 80%, between 1% and 65%, between 5% and 65% or between 20% and 40%. The amount of fucose is determined by calculating the average amount of fucose in the sugar chain on Asn297 relative to the sum of all Asn 297-bound glycostructures (e.g., complex, hybrid, and high-mannose structures) according to with a measurement by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, as described, for example, in WO 2008 / 077546. Asn297 refers to the asparagine residue located at approximately position 297 of the Fe region (EU numbering of Fe region residues); without Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ However, Asn297 can also be located approximately + / 3 amino acids 5' or 3' from position 297, ie, between positions 294 and 300, due to minor sequence variations of the antibodies. Such fucosylation variants may have improved ADCC function. See, for example, US Patent Nos: 6773900, 6740506, 6713282, 6635449, 6605449, 6537776, US 2003 / 0157108 (Presta, L.); US 2004 / 0093621 (Kyowa Hakko Kogyo Co., Ltd). Examples of publications relating to defucosylated or fucose-deficient variants of the antibodies include: US 2003 / 0157108; WO 2000 / 61739; WO 2001 / 29246; US 2003 / 0115614; US 2002 / 0164328; US 2004 / 0093621; US 2004 / 0132140; US 2004 / 0110704; US 2004 / 0110282; US 2004 / 0109865; WO 2003 / 085119; WO 2003 / 084570; WO 2005 / 035586; WO 2005 / 035778; WO2005 / 053742; WO2002 / 031140; Okazaki et al., J. Mol. Biol. 336: 1239-1249 (2004); Yamane-Ohnuki et al., Biotech. bloeng. 87:614 (2004). Examples of cell lines capable of producing defucosylated antibodies include Lecl3 CHO cells deficient in protein fucosylation (Ripka et al., Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 249: 533-545 (1986); US Patent Application No: US 2003 / 0157108 Al, Presta, L; and WO 2004 / 056312 Al, Adams et al., especially in Example 11), and knockout cell lines, such as for alpha-1.6fucosyltransferase gene, FUT8, CHO knockout cells (see, for For example, Yamane-Ohnuki et al., Biotech Bloeng 87: 614 Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 231 (2004); Kanda, Y. et al., Biotechnol. Bioeng., 94 (4): 680688 (2006); and WO2003 / 085107). Additionally provided are variants of antibodies with bisected oligosaccharides, eg, in which GlcNAc cleaves a bisected oligosaccharide attached to the Fe region of the antibody. Such antibody variants may exhibit reduced fucosylation and / or enhanced ADCC function. Examples of such antibody variants are described, for example, in WO 2003 / 011878 (Jean-Mairet et al.); US Patent No: 6,602,684 (Umana et al.); and US 2005 / 0123546 (Umana et al.). Antibody variants with at least one galactose residue in the oligosaccharide attached to the Fe region are also provided. Such antibody variants may exhibit improved CDC function. These antibody variants are described, for example, in WO 1997 / 30087 (Patel et al.); WO 1998 / 58964 (Raju, S.); and WO 1999 / 22764 (Raju, S. ). c) Variants of the Fe region In certain embodiments, one or more amino acid modifications can be introduced into the Fe region of an antibody provided herein, thereby generating a variant Fe region (which may also be called an altered Fe region). The Fc region variant may comprise a human Fc region sequence (eg, a human IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, or IgG4 Fc region) that 232 comprises an amino acid modification (eg, substitution) at one or more amino acid positions. In certain embodiments, the present disclosure contemplates a variant antibody that possesses some, but not all, effector functions, making it a desirable candidate for applications in which antibody half-life in vivo is important even though certain effector functions are not present. (such as complement and ADCC) are unnecessary or harmful. In vitro and / or in vivo cytotoxicity assays can be performed to confirm the reduction / suppression of CDC and / or ADCC activities. For example, Fe receptor (FcR) binding assays can be performed to ensure that the antibody does not bind to the Fe gamma R (hence probably no ADCC activity), but retains FcRn binding activity. The primary cells to mediate ADCC, NK cells, only express Fe gamma RUI, whereas monocytes express Fe gamma RI, Fe gamma RII, and Fe gamma RUI. The expression of FcR on hematopoietic cells is summarized in Table 3 on page 464 of Ravetch and Kinet, Annu. Rev. Immunol 9:457492 (1991). Non-limiting examples of in vitro assays to assess ADCC activity of a molecule of interest are described in US Patent No: 5,500,362 (see, for example, Hellstrom, I. et al., Proc. Nat ' 1 Acad. Sci. USA 83: 7059-7063 (1986)) and Hellstrom, I et al., Proc. Nat Acal. Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 233 Sci. USA 82: 1499-1502 (1985); 5,821,337 (see Bruggemann, M. et al., J. Exp. Med. 166: 1351-1361 (1987)). Alternatively, non-radioactive assay methods may be employed (see, for example, the ACT1™ non-radioactive cytotoxicity assay for flow cytometry (CellTechnology, Inc. Mountain View, CA; and the CytoTox 96 (registered trademark) non-radioactive cytotoxicity assay). ) (Promega, Madison, WI).Useful effector cells for such assays include peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and natural killer (NK) cells.Alternatively, or in addition, one can assess the ADCC activity of the of interest in vivo, for example, in an animal model, such as that described in Clynes et al., PNAS (USA) 95:652-656 (1998).Binding assays can also be carried out to Clq to confirm that the antibody cannot bind to Clq and therefore lacks CDC activity See, for example, Clq and C3c binding ELISA in WO 2006 / 029879 and WO 2005 / 100402. complement activation, a CDC assay can be performed (see, for example, Gazzano-Santoro et al., J. Immunoi. Methods 202: 163 (1996); Cragg, MS et al., Blood 101: 1045-1052 (2003); and Cragg, M.S. and M.J. Glennie, Blood 103: 2738-2743 (2004)). Determinations of FcRn binding and in vivo clearance / half-life can also be performed using methods known in the art (see, for example, Petkova, SB et al., Int'l. Immunoi. Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛ 234(12):1759-1769 (2006)). Antibodies with reduced effector function include those comprising a substitution of one or more of residues 238, 265, 269, 270, 297, 327, and 329 of the Fe region (US Patent No: 6,737,056). Such Fe mutants include Fe mutants with substitutions at two or more of amino acid positions 265, 269, 270, 297, and 327, including the so-called Fe DANA mutant with substitution of residues 265 and 297 with alanine (US Patent No. : 7,332,581). Some variants of antibodies with greater or lesser binding to the FcR are described. (See, for example, US Patent No: 6,737,056; WO 2004 / 056312, and Shields et al., J. Biol. Chem. 9(2): 6591-6604 (2001)). In certain embodiments, a variant antibody comprises an Fc region with one or more ADCC-enhancing amino acid substitutions, eg, substitutions at Fc region positions 298, 333, and / or 334 (EU residue numbering). In some embodiments, alterations are made in the Fe region that result in impaired (i.e., increased or decreased) Clq binding and / or complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), for example, as described in US Pat. No: 6,194,551, WO 99 / 51642 and Idusogie et al., J. Immunol. 164: 4178-4184 Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛ 235 (2000). Antibodies with increased half-lives and increased neonatal Fe receptor (FcRn) binding, which is responsible for the transfer of maternal IgG to the fetus (Guyer et al., J. Immunol. 117: 587 (1976) and Kim et al. , J. Immunol. 24: 249 (1994)), are described in US2005 / 0014934A1 (Hinton et al. ). These antibodies comprise an Fe region with one or more substitutions that increase the binding of the Fe region to FcRn. Such Fe variants include those having substitutions at one or more of the following Fe region residues: 238, 256, 265, 272, 286, 303, 305, 307, 311, 312, 317, 340, 356, 360, 362, 376, 378, 380, 382, 413, 424 or 434, for example, a substitution of residue 434 of the Fe region (US Patent No: 7,371,826). See also Duncan & Winter, Nature 322: 738-40 (1988); US Patent No: 5,648,260; US Patent No: 5,624,821; and WO 94 / 29351 for other examples of Fe region variants. In one embodiment, the binding activity to each human Fc-gamma receptor (Fc-gamma R) of an antibody Fc region (including a Fc region variant (the same applies hereinafter)) can be measured. by a ligand capture method using, for example, BIACORE (registered trademark) T200, which is based on surface plasmon resonance analysis methods as the principle of 236 measurement. In the following, details of an exemplary method for measuring the binding activity of the Fc region of the antibody to various human Fc-gamma receptors (Fc-gamma R) are described. In one embodiment, the binding activity of an antibody Fc region to the Fc-gamma R is assessed using BIACORE (Trade Mark) T200. In a preferred embodiment, this measurement is carried out at 25 degrees C, using a measurement buffer of 50 mM phosphate, 150 mM NaCl, 0.05% w / v P20, pH 7.4. Specifically, approximately 1000 RU of an antibody comprising a variant of the Fe region is first captured on a sensor chip with the CaptureSelect (trademark) Human Fablambda Kinetícs Biotin Conjugate (ThermoFisher Scientific) immobilized as a ligand capture molecule. Human Fcgamma R's are diluted with measurement buffer to 8 nM for Fc-gamma Ría and 1000 nM for other Fcgamma R's, and allowed to bind to the captured antibody. The binding activity of each antibody to each Fc-gamma R is evaluated by calculating the amount of Fc-gamma R bound per unit amount of antibody (RU) using the Biacore T200 2.0 evaluation software. In one embodiment, the binding activity of an antibody Fc region to various human Fc-gamma receptors (Fc-gamma R) can be measured by the method described in Example 7-4. Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 237 In a preferred embodiment, the Fc-gamma R used in the measurement method described above may comprise an extracellular domain of an Fc-gamma R prepared with the method described below. First, gene synthesis of an extracellular domain of an Fc-gamma R is carried out by a method known to those skilled in the art. For this synthesis, the sequences of each Fc-gamma R are prepared based on the information registered with NCBI. More specifically, the sequence of Fc-gamma RI is prepared based on the sequence of NCBI, accession #: NM_000566.3, the sequence of Fc-gamma Rila is prepared based on the sequence of NCBI, accession #: NM 001136219.1, the Fc-gamma Rllb sequence is prepared based on the NCBI sequence, accession #: NM_004001.3, and the Fc-gamma RlIIa sequence is prepared based on the NCBI sequence, accession #: NM_001127593.1, and a His tag is added to the C-terminus. Polymorphic sites for Fc-gamma Rila are prepared with reference to J. Exp. Med., 1990, 172, 19-25, and polymorphic sites for Fc-gamma RlIIa are prepared with reference to J. Clin. Invest., 1997, 100, 1059-1070. The obtained gene fragments are inserted into an expression vector for animal cells to prepare expression vectors. The prepared expression vectors are transiently introduced into FreeStyle293 cells (Invitrogen) derived from human embryonic kidney cancer cells and Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 238 the protein of interest is allowed to express itself. The culture supernatant is collected and filtered through a 0.22 micron filter, and then basically purified through the four steps described below. As a first step, a cation exchange column chromatography (SP Sepharose FF) is carried out; as a second step, an affinity column chromatography with His tags (HisTrap HP); as a third step, a gel filtration column chromatography (Superdex200); and as a fourth step, an aseptic filtration. It should be noted that for the Fcgamma RI, an anion exchange column chromatography is carried out using Q sepharose FF as the first step. The concentration of the purified protein is calculated based on the absorption coefficient, calculated by measuring the absorbance at 280 nm using a spectrophotometer and using PACE or a similar method for the measured values (Protein Science, 1995, 4, 2411-2423). In one embodiment, the binding activity of an antibody Fc region to human FcRn can be measured by a ligand capture method using, for example, BIACORE (Trade Mark) T200, which is based on plasmon resonance analysis methods. of surface as a principle of measurement. Details of an exemplary method for measuring the binding activity of the Fe region of an antibody to the FcRn Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 239 human are described later. In one embodiment, the binding activity of an antibody Fc region to human FcRn is assessed using BIACORE (Trade Mark) T200. In a preferred embodiment, this measurement is carried out at 25 degrees C, using a measurement buffer of 50 mM phosphate, 150 mM NaCl, 0.05% w / v P20, pH 6.0. Specifically, about 400 RU of an antibody comprising an Fe region is first captured on a sensor chip, onto which has been immobilized Human Fab-lambda Kinetics Biotin Conjugate (ThermoFisher Scientific) CaptureSelect (Trade Mark) conjugate as the capture molecule. ligand, and then human FcRn diluted using the measurement buffer is allowed to bind to it. The binding activity of each antibody to the FcRn is assessed by calculating the KD(M) using the steady state model with the Biacore T200 2.0 evaluation software. In a preferred embodiment, the human FcRn protein used in this measurement is prepared according to the method described in Reference Example 2 of WO201010711. In one embodiment, the binding activity of an antibody Fc region to various Fc-Rn) receptors can be measured by the method described in Example 7-5. d) Cysteine-modified antibody variants In certain embodiments, it may be desirable to create Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 240 cysteine-modified antibodies, eg, thioMAbs, in which one or more of the residues of an antibody are substituted with cysteine residues. In particular embodiments, the substituted residues are found at accessible sites on the antibody. By substituting those residues with cisternae, the reactive thiol groups are then located at accessible sites on the antibody and can be used to conjugate the antibody to other units, such as drug units or linker drug units, to create an immunoconjugate, as will be described. later in the present. In certain embodiments, one or more of the following residues may be substituted for cisternae: V205 (Kabat numbering) of the light chain; A118 (EU numbering) of the heavy chain; and S400 (EU numbering) of the Fe region of the heavy chain. Cystern-modified antibodies can be generated as described, for example, in US Patent No: 7,521,541. e) Derivatives of antibodies In certain embodiments, an antibody provided herein can also be modified to contain additional non-proteinaceous units that are known in the art and readily available. Units suitable for antibody derivatization include, but are not limited to, water-soluble polymers. Non-limiting examples of water soluble polymers include, but are not limited to Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 241 in a non-limiting sense, polyethylene glycol (PEG), ethylene glycol / propylene glycol copolymers, carboxymethylcellulose, dextran, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, poly1,3-dioxolane, poly-1,3,6-trioxane, ethylene / maleic anhydride copolymers, polyamino acids (either homopolymers or random copolymers) and dextran or poly(vinylpyrrolidone)polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol homopolymers, polypropylene oxide / ethylene oxide copolymers, polyoxyethylated polyols (eg, glycerol), polyvinyl alcohol, and mixtures thereof. Polyethylene glycol propionaldehyde may offer advantages in processing due to its stability in water. The polymer can be of any molecular weight and can be branched or unbranched. The number of polymers bound to the antibody can vary, and if more than one polymer is bound, they can be the same or different molecules. In general, the number and / or type of polymers used for derivatization can be determined based on considerations including, but not limited to, the particular properties or functions of the antibody to be improved, whether the antibody derivative will be used in a therapy under defined conditions, etc. In another embodiment, conjugates of an antibody and a non-protein unit are provided that can be selectively heated by exposure to radiation. In one mode, Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 242 the non-protein unit is a carbon nanotube (Kam et al., Proc. Nati. Acad. Sci. USA 102: 11600-11605 (2005)). The radiation can be of any wavelength, including, but not limited to, wavelengths that do not injure ordinary cells, but that heat the non-protein unit to a temperature at which cells proximal to it are destroyed. the non-protein unit of the antibody. B. Recombinant Compositions and Methods Antibodies can be produced using recombinant methods and compositions, for example, as described in US Patent No: 4,816,567. In one embodiment, an isolated nucleic acid is provided that encodes an anti-CD137 antibody or antigen binding molecule described herein. Such nucleic acid may encode an amino acid sequence comprising the Vl and / or an amino acid sequence comprising the Vh of the antibody (eg, the light and / or heavy chains of the antibody). In a further embodiment, one or more vectors (eg, expression vectors) comprising such a nucleic acid are provided. In a further embodiment, a host cell comprising such a nucleic acid is provided. In such an embodiment, a host cell comprises (eg, was transformed therewith): (1) a vector comprising a nucleic acid encoding an amino acid sequence comprising the antibody V1 and a sequence of 243 amino acids comprising the antibody Vh or (2) a first vector comprising a nucleic acid encoding an amino acid sequence comprising the antibody Vl and a second vector comprising a nucleic acid encoding an amino acid sequence comprising the Vh of the antibody. In one embodiment, the host cell is eukaryotic, eg, a Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell or a lymphoid cell (eg, YO, NSO, Sp2 / 0 cells). In one embodiment, a method of making an anti-CD137 antibody or antigen binding molecule is provided, wherein the method comprises culturing a host cell comprising a nucleic acid encoding the antibody, provided above, under conditions suitable for expression. of the antigen binding molecule or anti-CD137 antibody and optionally recovering the antibody from the host cell (or host cell culture medium). For recombinant production of an anti-CD137 antibody or antigen-binding molecule, nucleic acid encoding an antibody is isolated, for example, as previously described, and inserted into one or more vectors for subsequent cloning and production. / or expression in a host cell. Such nucleic acid can be readily isolated and sequenced using standard procedures (for example, with oligonucleotide probes that bind 244 specifically to the genes encoding the heavy and light chains of the antibody). Host cells suitable for cloning or expression of antibody-encoding vectors include the prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells described herein. For example, antibodies can be produced in bacteria, particularly when Fe glycosylation and effector function is not required. For expression of antibody fragments and polypeptides in bacteria, see, for example, US Patent Nos: 5,648,237, 5,789,199 and 5,840,523. (See also Charlton, Methods in Molecular Blology^ volume 248 (B.K.C. Lo, ed., Humana Press, Totowa, NJ, 2003), pages 245-254, describing the expression of antibody fragments in E. coli). After expression, the antibody can be isolated from the bacterial cell paste in a soluble fraction and further purified. In addition to prokaryotes, suitable cloning or expression hosts for the antibody-encoding vectors are eukaryotic microorganisms, such as filamentous fungi or yeasts, including fungi and yeast strains whose glycosylation pathways have been humanized, resulting in the production of an antibody with a partially or fully human glycosylation pattern. See Gerngross, Nat. Biotech. 22: 1409-1414 (2004), Lnn / ίΖΠΖ / Β / ΥΙΛΙ 245 and Li et al., Nat. Biotech. 24: 210-215 (2006). Host cells suitable for the expression of glycosylated antibodies are also derived from multicellular organisms (invertebrates and vertebrates). Examples of invertebrate cells include insect and plant cells. Numerous baculovirus strains have been identified that can be used in conjunction with insect cells, in particular for the transfection of Spodoptera frugiperda cells. Plant cell cultures can also be used as hosts. See, for example, US Patent Nos: 6,773,900, 6,740,506, 6,713,282, 6, 635, 449, 6, 605, 449, 6, 537,776, 5, 959, 177, 6, 040,498, 6,420,7,548, 7,420,7,525, 7, 97, 4, 7, 528 9 (where describes the PLANTIBODIES™ technology for producing antibodies in transgenic plants). Vertebrate cells can also be used as hosts. For example, mammalian cell lines adapted to grow in suspension may be useful. Other examples of useful mammalian host cell lines include the monkey kidney line CV1 transformed with SV40 (COS-7); the human embryonic kidney line (293 or 293 cells as described, for example, in Graham et al., J.
