COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF TREATING OR AMELIORATING METABOLIC DISORDERS

[0002] Incorporated by reference in its entirety is a computer-readable nucleotide / amino acid sequence listing submitted concurrently herewith and identified as follows: 1.51 MB (XML) file named “10889-W001-SEC_Sequence_Listing.xml”; created on March 13, 2025.FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0003] The present disclosure relates to improved Glucagon-like peptide- 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist polypeptides and molecules comprising these improved GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides, such as conjugate molecules comprising one or more GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides conjugated to an anti-gastric inhibitory peptide receptor (GIPR) antibody. The present disclosure is also directed to the use of these improved GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides and conjugate molecules comprising these polypeptides for treating or ameliorating a metabolic disorder, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. These improved GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides and conjugate molecules comprising these polypeptides are also useful for treating or ameliorating obesity related conditions and type 2 diabetes related conditions.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0004] Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is a single 42-amino acid peptide secreted from K-cells in the small intestine (duodenum and jejunum). Human GIP is derived from the processing of proGIP, a 153 -amino acid precursor that is encoded by a gene localized to chromosome 17q (Inagaki et al., Mol Endocrinol 1989; 3:1014-1021; Fehmann et al. Endocr Rev. 1995; 16:390-410). GIP was formerly called gastric inhibitory polypeptide.
[0005] GIP secretion is induced by food ingestion. GIP has a number of physiological effects in tissues, including promotion of fat storage in adipocytes and promotion of pancreatic islet 0-cell function and glucose-dependent insulin secretion. GIP and glucagon like polypeptide- 1 (GLP-1) are known insulinotropic factors (“incretins”). Intact GIP is rapidly degraded by DPPIV to an inactive form. The insulinotropic effect of GIP is lost in type 2 diabetic subjects while GLP-l’s incretin effect remains intact (Nauck et al. J. Cline. Invest. 1993; 91:301-307).
[0006] The GIP receptor (GIPR) is a member of the secretin-glucagon family of G- protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) having an extracellular N-terminus, seven transmembrane domains and an intracellular C-terminus. The N-terminal extracellular domains of this family of receptors are usually glycosylated and form the recognition and binding domain of the receptor. GIPR is highly expressed in a number of tissues, including the pancreas, gut, adipose tissue, heart, pituitary, adrenal cortex, and brain (Usdin et al., Endocrinology 1993, 133:2861-2870). Human GIPR comprises 466 amino acids and is encoded by a gene located on chromosome 19ql3.3 (Gremhch et al., Diabetes 1995; 44: 1202-8; Volz et al., FEBSLett. 1995, 373:23-29). Studies have suggested that alternative mRNA splicing results in the production of GIP receptor variants of differing lengths in human, rat and mouse.
[0007] GIPR knockout mice (GIPR' ') are resistant to high fat diet-induced weight gain and have improved insulin sensitivity and lipid profiles (Yamada et al., Diabetes. 2006, 55:S86; Miyawaki et al. Nature Med. 2002, 8:738-742). In addition, a novel small molecule GIPR antagonist SKL-14959 prevents obesity and insulin resistance (Diabetologia 2008, 51:S373, 44th EASD Annual meeting poster).
[0008] Collectively, these links to obesity and insulin resistance imply GIPR inhibition is a useful approach for therapeutic intervention.
[0009] Glucagon-like peptide- 1 is a 31 -amino acid peptide derived from the proglucagon gene. It is secreted by intestinal L-cells and released in response to food ingestion to induce insulin secretion from pancreatic 0-cells (Diabetes 2004, 53:S3, 205-214). In addition to the incretin effects, GLP-1 also decreases glucagon secretion, delays gastric emptying and reduces caloric intake (Diabetes Care, 2003, 26(10): 2929-2940). GLP-1 exerts its effects by activation of the GLP-1 receptor, which belongs to a class B G- protein-coupled receptor (Endocrinology 1993, 133(4): 1907- 10). The function of GLP-1 is limited by rapid degradation by the DPP-IV enzyme, resulting in a half-life of approximately 2 minutes. Recently, long-lasting GLP-1receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) such as exenatide, liraglutide, dulaglutide have been developed and are now being used clinically to improve glycemic control in subjects with type 2 diabetes. Furthermore, GLP-1 receptor agonists also promote body weight reduction as well as reduction in blood pressure and plasma cholesterol levels in subjects (Bioorg. Med. Chem.Lett 2013, 23:4011-4018).SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present disclosure further relates to the utility of these improved protein therapeutics for treating or ameliorating metabolic disorders, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, elevated glucose levels, elevated insulin levels, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetic nephropathy. land type 2 diabetes related conditions as described herein. The present disclosure also relates to the utility of these improved protein therapeutics for treating or ameliorating obesity related conditions and type 2 diabetes related conditions.
[0065] The section headings used herein are for organizational purposes only and are not to be construed as limiting the subject matter described.
[0066] Unless otherwise defined herein, scientific and technical terms used in connection with the present application shall have the meanings that are commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art. Further, unless otherwise required by context, singular terms shall include pluralities and plural terms shall include the singular.
[0067] Other than in the operating examples, or where otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing quantities of ingredients or reaction conditions used herein should be understood as modified in all instances by the term “about.” The term “about” when used in connection with percentages means ±1%.
[0068] Following convention, as used herein “a” and “an” mean “one or more” unless specifically indicated otherwise.
[0069] As used herein, the terms “amino acid” and “residue” are interchangeable and, when used in the context of a peptide or polypeptide, refer to both naturally occurring and synthetic amino acids, as well as amino acid analogs, amino acid mimetics and non-naturally occurring amino acids that are chemically similar to the naturally occurring amino acids.
[0070] A “naturally occurring amino acid” is an amino acid that is encoded by the human genetic code, as well as those amino acids that are encoded by the genetic code that are modified after synthesis, e.g., hydroxyproline, y-carboxyglutamate, and O-phosphoserine. An amino acid analog is a compound that has the same basic chemical structure as a naturally occurring amino acid, i.e., an a carbon that is bound to a hydrogen, a carboxyl group, an amino group, and an R group, e.g., homoserine, norleucine, methionine sulfoxide, methionine methyl sulfonium. Such analogs can have modified R groups (e.g., norleucine) or modified peptide backbones, but will retain the same basic chemical structure as a naturally occurring amino acid.
[0071] An “amino acid mimetic” is a chemical compound that has a structure that is different from the general chemical structure of an amino acid, but that functions in a manner similar to a naturally occurring amino acid. Examples include a methacryloyl or acryloyl derivative of an amide, 0-, y-, 8-imino acids (such as piperidine-4-carboxylic acid) and the like.
[0072] A “non-naturally occurring amino acid” is a compound that has the same basic chemical structure as a naturally occurring amino acid, but is not incorporated into a growing polypeptide chain by the translation complex. A non-naturally occurring amino acid also includes, but is not limited to, amino acids that occur by modification (e.g., posttranslational modifications) of a naturally encoded amino acid (including but not limited to, the 20 common amino acids) but are not themselves naturally incorporated into a growing polypeptide chain by the translation complex. A non-limiting list of examples of non-naturally occurring amino acids that can be inserted into a polypeptide sequence or substituted for a wild-type residue in polypeptide sequence include 0-amino acids, homoamino acids, cyclic amino acids and amino acids with derivatized side chains. Examples include (in the L-form or D-form; abbreviated as in parentheses): citrulline (Cit), homocitrulline (hCit), Na- methylcitrulline (NMeCit), Na-methylhomocitrulline (Na-MeHoCit), ornithine (Orn), Na-Methylornithine (Na-MeOrn or NMeOrn), sarcosine (Sar), homolysine (hLys or hK), homoarginine (hArg or hR),homoglutamine (hQ), Na-methylarginine (NMeR), Na-methylleucine (Na-MeL or NMeL), N- methylhomolysine (NMeHoK), Na-methylglutamine (NMeQ), norleucine (Nle), norvaline (Nva), 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (Tic), Octahydroindole-2-carboxylic acid (Oic), 3-(l- naphthyl)alanine (1-Nal), 3-(2-naphthyl)alanine (2-Nal), 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (Tic), 2- indanylglycine (Igl), para-iodophenylalanine (pl-Phe), para-aminophenylalanine (4AmP or 4- Amino-Phe), 4-guanidino phenylalanine (Guf), glycyllysine (abbreviated “K(Ns-glycyl)” or “K(glycyl)” or “K(gly)”), nitrophenylalanine (nitrophe), aminophenylalanine (aminophe or Amino-Phe), benzylphenylalanine (benzylphe), y-carboxyglutamic acid (y-carboxyglu), hydroxyproline (hydroxypro), p-carboxyl-phenylalanine (Cpa), a-aminoadipic acid (Aad), Na- methyl valine (NMeVal), N-a-methyl leucine (NMeLeu), Na-methylnorleucine (NMeNle), cyclopentylglycine (Cpg), cyclohexylglycine (Chg), acetylarginine (acetylarg), a, 0- diaminopropionoic acid (Dpr), a, y-diaminobutyric acid (Dab), diaminopropionic acid (Dap), cyclohexylalanine (Cha), 4-methyl-phenylalanine (MePhe), 0, 0-diphenyl-alanine (BiPhA), aminobutyric acid (Abu), 4-phenyl-phenylalanine (or biphenylalanine; 4Bip), a-amino-isobutyric acid (Aib), beta-alanine, beta-aminopropionic acid, piperidinic acid, aminocaprioic acid, aminoheptanoic acid, aminopimelic acid, desmosine, diaminopimelic acid, N-ethylglycine, N-ethylaspargine, hydroxylysine, allo-hydroxylysine, isodesmosine, allo-isoleucine, N-methylglycine, N-methylisoleucine, N-methylvaline, 4-hydroxyproline (Hyp), y- carboxyglutamate, s-N,N,N-trimethyllysine, s-N-acetyllysine, O-phosphoserine, N-acetylserine, N-formylmethionine, 3 -methylhistidine, 5-hydroxylysine, co-methylarginine, 4-Amino-O- Phthalic Acid (4APA), and other similar amino acids, and derivatized forms of any of those specifically listed.
[0073] As used herein, the term “polypeptide” refers to a polymer of amino acid residues. Polypeptides comprising between two and fifty amino acids may also be referred to as “peptides” herein. “Polypeptide” further encompasses an amino acid polymer in which one or more amino acid residue is an analog or mimetic of a corresponding naturally occurring amino acid, as well as naturally occurring amino acid polymers. The term can also encompass an amino acid polymer that has been modified, e.g., by the addition of carbohydrate residues to form a glycoprotein, or by the addition of a phosphate group to form a phosphorylated polypeptide. Polypeptides can be produced by a naturally-occurring and non-recombinant cell, or polypeptides can be produced by a genetically-engineered or recombinant cell, and comprisemolecules having the amino acid sequence of a native protein, or molecules having deletions from, additions to, and / or substitutions of one or more amino acids of a native sequence. Polypeptide can also be produced synthetically.
[0074] As used herein, a “variant” of a polypeptide comprises an amino acid sequence wherein one or more amino acid residues are inserted into, deleted from and / or substituted into the amino acid sequence relative to a reference polypeptide sequence.
[0075] As used herein, a “derivative” of a polypeptide is a polypeptide that has been chemically modified in some manner distinct from insertion, deletion, or substitution variants, such as, e.g., via conjugation to another chemical moiety.
[0076] A composition of the present invention that includes a GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptide as described herein covalently linked, attached, or bound either directly or indirectly through a linker moiety, to an anti-GIPR antibody of the invention is referred to herein as a “conjugate”, conjugate molecule”, “conjugate protein”, or “antibody conjugate”.
[0077] As used herein, the term “linker moiety” refers to a biologically acceptable (i.e., safe and non-toxic) peptidyl or non-peptidyl organic group that is covalently bound to a first molecule (e.g., a first polypeptide) and covalently joins or conjugates the molecule to a second molecule (e.g., a second polypeptide). Where the linker moiety consists of a polypeptide or a polypeptide derivative (e.g., a polypeptide that has been chemically modified at one or both of the N-terminus and C-terminus to incorporate a functional group that permits conjugation to the first or second molecule), it may be referred to as a “linker polypeptide” herein. For example, in one embodiment, a linker polypeptide may comprise an acetylated terminus (e.g., when a thiolbromoacetyl reaction is used to conjugate the derivatized terminus of the linker polypeptide to a cysteine residue of a polypeptide by forming a thioether linkage that comprises a sulfur atom of the cysteine residue).
[0078] The phrase “percent sequence identity,” in the context of two or more polypeptide sequences, refers to the ratio of the number of identical amino acid residues between two or more aligned amino acid (polypeptide or protein) sequences over the aligned length of the sequences, expressed as a percentage. To calculate the percent sequence identity of two sequences, the sequences are aligned along their length. A sequence alignment algorithm, e.g., BLAST (Myers et al., J. Mol. Biol. 215(3):403- 10 (1990)), can be utilized to align two sequences to ensure the corresponding amino acids are positioned correctly against each other. The number of identicalamino acids at each position in the alignment is divided by the number of total number of aligned positions and multiplied by 100.
[0079] The terms “GIPR polypeptide” and “GIPR protein” are used interchangeably to refer to the naturally-occurring glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor protein that is expressed in a mammal, such as a human or a mouse, and includes naturally occurring alleles (e.g., naturally occurring allelic forms of human GIPR protein). For purposes of this disclosure, the term “GIPR polypeptide” can be used interchangeably to refer to any full-length GIPR polypeptide (UniProt Accession No. P48546-1), e.g., SEQ ID NO: 1572, which consists of 466 amino acid residues and which is encoded by the nucleotide sequence SEQ ID NO: 1573. The term also encompasses known isoforms of the GIPR protein (see e.g., UniProt Accession Nos. P48546-2 and P48546-3).
[0080] The term “GIPR polypeptide” also encompasses naturally occurring GIPR polypeptide variants. Such variants may include modifications to the naturally occurring GIPR sequence (SEQ ID NO: 1572) that include, but are not limited to, one or more amino acid substitutions, deletions, and / or insertions. A GIPR polypeptide encompasses an amino acid sequence that is at least about 85 percent identical to a naturally-occurring GIPR polypeptide (e.g., SEQ ID NO: 1572). In other embodiments, a GIPR polypeptide comprises an amino acid sequence that is at least about 90 percent, or about 95, 96, 97, 98, or 99 percent identical to a naturally-occurring GIPR polypeptide amino acid sequence (e.g., SEQ ID NO: 1572). Such GIPR polypeptides preferably, but need not, possess at least one activity of a wild-type GIPR polypeptide, such as the ability to bind GIP. The present invention also encompasses nucleic acid molecules encoding such GIPR polypeptide sequences.
[0081] The terms “GIP”, “Gastric inhibitory polypeptide”, “glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide” and “GIP ligand” are used interchangeably and mean a naturally- occurring wild-type polypeptide expressed in a mammal, such as a human or a mouse, and includes naturally occurring alleles (e.g., naturally occurring allelic forms of human GIP protein). GIP is a natural ligand for GIPR. For purposes of this disclosure, the term “GIP” can be used interchangeably to refer to any mature GIP polypeptide.
[0082] As used herein, the term “antibody” refers to an intact immunoglobulin. An antibody comprises two full-length heavy chains and two full-length light chains. Antibodiesmay be derived solely from a single source, or may be “chimeric,” that is, different portions of the antibody may be derived from two different antibodies as described further below.
[0083] As used herein, the term “light chain” or “immunoglobulin light chain” refers to a polypeptide comprising, from amino terminus (N-terminus) to carboxyl terminus (C-terminus), a single immunoglobulin light chain variable region (VL) and a single immunoglobulin light chain constant domain (CL). The immunoglobulin light chain constant domain (CL) can be a human kappa (K) or human lambda (X) constant domain.
[0084] As used herein, the term “heavy chain” or “immunoglobulin heavy chain” refers to a polypeptide comprising, from amino terminus (N-terminus) to carboxyl terminus (C- terminus), a single immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region (VH), an immunoglobulin heavy chain constant domain 1 (CHI), an immunoglobulin hinge region, an immunoglobulin heavy chain constant domain 2 (CH2), an immunoglobulin heavy chain constant domain 3 (CH3), and optionally an immunoglobulin heavy chain constant domain 4 (CH4). Heavy chains are classified as mu (p), delta (A), gamma (y), alpha (a), and epsilon (s), and define the antibody's isotype as IgM, IgD, IgG, IgA, and IgE, respectively. In accordance with the present disclosure, an antibody is of the IgG isotype. IgG has several subclasses, including, but not limited to IgGl, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4.
[0085] Variable regions of immunoglobulin chains generally exhibit the same overall structure, comprising relatively conserved framework regions (FR) joined by three hypervariable regions, more often called “complementarity determining regions” or CDRs. The CDRs from the two chains of each heavy chain and light chain pair typically are aligned by the framework regions to form a structure that binds specifically to a specific epitope on the target antigen or protein. From N-terminus to C-terminus, naturally-occurring light and heavy chain variable regions of an antibody both typically conform with the following order of these elements: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, and FR4. Numbering systems have been devised for assigning numbers to amino acids that occupy positions in each of these domains. Exemplary numbering systems are defined in Kabat Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest (1987 and 1991, NIH, Bethesda, MD), and Chothia & Lesk, J. Mol. Biol. 196:901-917 (1987); Chothia et al., Nature 342:878-883 (1989). Other numbering systems for identifying amino acids in immunoglobulin chains include IMGT® (the international ImMunoGeneTics informationsystem; Lefranc et al., Dev. Comp. Immunol. 29: 185-203; 2005) and AHo (Honegger and Pluckthun, J. Mol. Biol. 309(3): 657-670; 2001).
[0086] As used herein, an “antagonist anti-GIPR antibody” and “anti-GIPR antibody” refer to an intact immunoglobulin of the IgG isotype that partially or fully blocks, inhibits, or neutralizes a biological activity of the GIPR protein. Antagonist activity of the anti-GIPR antibody of the present disclosure is determined using the GIPR activity assay and GIPR binding assay defined herein.
[0087] As used herein, an “antibody fragment” is a portion (regardless of how that portion is obtained or synthesized) of an antibody that lacks at least some of the amino acids present in a full-length chain but which is capable of binding to the same antigen at the same epitope as the corresponding full-length antibody. Exemplary antibody fragments include, but are not limited to, Fab, Fab', and F(ab')2 fragments.
[0088] As used herein, a “Fc domain” refers to the portion of an antibody comprising the second and third constant domains of the heavy chain (i.e., CH2 and CH3), and can optionally comprise the CH4 domain. The Fc domain may be an Fc domain from an IgGl, IgG2, IgG3, or IgG4 immunoglobulin. In some embodiments, the Fc region comprises CH2 and CH3 domains from a human IgGl or human IgG2 immunoglobulin. The Fc region may retain effector function, such as Clq binding, complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), Fc receptor binding, antibodydependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), and phagocytosis. In other embodiments, the Fc region may be modified to reduce or eliminate effector function. A “Fc-containing polypeptide” refers to a polypeptide comprising an Fc domain as defined herein.
[0089] As used herein, the terms “GLP-1 receptor agonist” and “GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptide” are used interchangeably and refer to a molecule that mimics a biological activity of the naturally occurring glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) molecule with respect to a GLP-1 receptor.
[0090] As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable” refers to a species or component that is generally safe, non-toxic, and neither biologically nor otherwise undesirable for use in a subject.
[0091] As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable excipient” refers to a broad range of ingredients that may be combined with a polypeptide or conjugate molecule disclosed herein to prepare a pharmaceutically acceptable composition or formulation. Excipients include,for example, vehicles (e.g., solvents, dispersion media), coatings, isotonic and absorption delaying agents, diluents, colorants, glidants, disintegrants, flavoring agents, coatings, binders, sweeteners, lubricants, sorbents, and preservatives (e.g., antibacterial and antifungal agents).
[0092] As used herein, the term “therapeutically effective amount” refers to that amount of a polypeptide or conjugate molecule disclosed herein that elicits a desired biological or medical response in a cell, a tissue, a system, or a subject. The desired biological or medical response does not necessarily occur by administration of one dose, and may occur only after administration of a series of doses. Thus, a therapeutically effective amount may be administered in one or more administrations.
[0093] As used herein, the term “subject” or “subjects” refers to humans and other mammals. The term “mammal” as used herein includes, for example, humans, non-human primates, cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, horses, cats, dog, rabbits, rodents (e.g., rats or mice), and monkeys. Human subjects include neonates, infants, juveniles, adults, and geriatric subjects. In one embodiment, the subject is a human. In one embodiment, the subject is an adult human.
[0094] It should be understood that this invention is not limited to the particular methodology, protocols, and reagents, etc., described herein and as such may vary. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only, and is not intended to limit the scope of the disclosed, which is defined solely by the claims.GLP-1 RECEPTOR AGONIST POLYPEPTIDES
[0095] The present disclosure is directed to GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides and molecules, e.g., protein conjugates, comprising these GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides. These GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides, which are also referred to herein as GLP-1 receptor agonists and GLP-1 R agonist polypeptides, encompass molecules that mimic one or more biological activities of the native human GLP-1 polypeptide with respect to its binding to the human GLP-1 receptor. In addition, these GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides possess one or more advantageous properties relative to the native GLP-1 protein and / or other GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides known in the art.
[0096] The native human GLP-1 polypeptide is produced from post-translational processing of proglucagon within intestinal cells. Proglucagon cleavage by PCSK1 / PC1 generates a peptide comprising the proglucagon residues 71-108 or a C-terminally amidated form comprising residues 71-107 amide. Additional N-terminal truncation of this proglucagonderived peptide fragment within the intestinal cells is required to form the active GLP-1 peptide. Thus, the active human GLP-1 peptide, which is referred to as GLP-l(7-37), comprises the ammo acid sequence of HAEGTFTSDVSSYLEGQAAKEFIAWLVKGRG (SEQ ID NO: 1584). A C-terminally amidated version of this peptide is known as GLP-1 (7-36)amide.
[0097] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptide is an analog of the native human GLP-1 (7-37) peptide, i.e., an analog of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1584.

In one embodiment, a GLP-1 analog refers to a peptide comprising an amino acid sequence with at least 4, at least 5, at least 6, at least 7, at least 8, or at least 9 amino acid substitutions, insertions, deletions (or a combination of two or more of substitutions, insertions, deletions), when compared to the amino acid sequence of a GLP-l(7-37). In one embodiment, the GLP-1 analog of the present disclosure comprises an amino acid sequence with 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 amino acid substitutions, insertions, deletions (or a combination of two or more of substitutions, insertions, deletions), when compared to the amino acid sequence of a GLP-1 (7- 37) (SEQ ID NO: 1584). In one embodiment, the GLP-1 analog of the present disclosure comprises an amino acid sequence with 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 amino acid substitutions in the amino acid sequence of the GLP-l(7-37) polypeptide of SEQ ID NO: 1584. In one embodiment, these 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 amino acid substitutions comprise a substitution at any 5 or more positions selected from A2, V10, G16, Q17, K20, A24, V27, K28, and R30 of the GLP-l(7-37) peptide of SEQ ID NO: 1584. In one embodiment, the GLP-1 analog comprises substitutions at A2, V10, G16, and R30, plus one or more additional amino acid substitutions at residues selected from QI 7, K20, A24, V27, and K28 of SEQ ID NO: 1584. In one embodiment, the GLP-1 analog comprises substitutions at A2, V10, G16, and R30, plus two additional amino acid substitutions as residues selected from Q17, K20, A24, V27, and K28 of SEQ ID NO: 1584. In one embodiment, the GLP-1 analog comprises substitutions at A2, VI 0, G16, and R30, plus three additional amino acid substitutions as residues selected from QI 7, K20, A24, V27, and K28 of SEQ ID NO: 1584.In one embodiment, the GLP-1 analog comprises substitutions at A2, VI 0, G16, and R30, plus four additional amino acid substitutions as residues selected from QI 7, K20, A24, V27, and K28 of SEQ ID NO: 1584. In one embodiment, the GLP-1 analog comprises substitutions at A2, V10, G16, R30, Q17, K20, A24, V27, and K28 of the GLP-l(7-37) peptide of SEQ ID NO: 1584. GLP-1 analogs of the present disclosure include any of the aforementioned analogs in an amidated form, acid form, pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, and any other physiologically active forms of the molecule.
[0098] In one embodiment, the GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptide of the present disclosure comprises the amino acid sequence of H[Aib]EGTFTSDYSSYLEEXi7AAX2oELIX24WLX27X28GGG (SEQ ID NO: 1575), where Aib at position 2 is a-amino-isobutyric acid; X17 is selected from glutamine (Q), lysine (K), glutamic acid (E), or arginine (R), X20 is selected from K, R, Q, or homoarginine (hArg), X24 is selected from alanine (A), E, Q, aspartic acid (D), d-Ala, glycine (G), asparagine (N), K, (lS,2S)-2- Aminocyclopentanecarboxylic acid (ACPC), (3S,4R)-4-Amino-3-pyrrolidinecarboxylic acid (APCA), threonine (T), serine (S), or tyrosine (Y); X27 is selected from valine (V), K, a-amino- isobutyric acid (Aib), N, S, T, Y, Q, or R; and X28 is selected from K, E, R, Q, D, N, G, S, orT.

[0110] In one embodiment, the GLP-1 receptor agonists disclosed herein are chemically derivatized at one or more amino acid residues by known organic chemistry techniques. In accordance with this and all embodiments of the disclosure “chemical derivative” or “chemically derivatized” refers to a peptide (e.g., peptide linker as described herein), polypeptide (e.g., GLP- 1 receptor agonist polypeptide), or other protein (e.g., anti-GIPR antibody as described herein) having one or more residues chemically derivatized by reaction of a functional side group. Such derivatized molecules include, for example, those molecules in which free amino groups have been derivatized to form amine hydrochlorides, p-toluene sulfonyl groups, carbobenzoxy groups, t-butyloxycarbonyl groups, chloroacetyl groups or formyl groups. Free carboxyl groups may be derivatized to form salts, methyl and ethyl esters or other types of esters or hydrazides. Free hydroxyl groups may be derivatized to form O-acyl or O-alkyl derivatives. The imidazole nitrogen of histidine may be derivatized to form N-im-benzylhistidine. Also included as chemical derivatives are those polypeptides which contain one or more naturally occurring amino acid derivatives of the twenty canonical amino acids, whether in L- or D-form. For example, 4-hydroxyproline may be substituted for proline; 5-hydroxylysine may be substituted for lysine; 3 -methylhistidine may be substituted for histidine; homoserine may be substituted for serine; and ornithine may be substituted for lysine.
[0111] Useful derivatizations include, in one embodiment, those in which the amino terminal of the polypeptide is chemically blocked so that conjugation to an Fc-containing peptide or an antibody will be prevented from taking place at an N-terminal free amino group of the GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptide. There may be other beneficial effects of such as modification, for example, a reduction in the polypeptide agonist’s susceptibility to enzymatic proteolysis. The N-terminus can be acylated or modified to a substituted amine, or derivatized with another functional group, such as an aromatic moiety (e.g., an indole acid, benzyl (Bzl or Bn), dibenzyl (DiBzl or Bn2), or benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz or Z)), N,N-dimethylglycine or creatine. For example, in one embodiment, an acyl moiety, such as, but not limited to, a formyl,acetyl (Ac), propanoyl, butanyl, heptanyl, hexanoyl, octanoyl, or nonanoyl, are covalently linked to the N-terminal end of the peptide, which can prevent undesired side reactions during conjugation of the peptide to an Fc-containing peptide or antibody. Other exemplary N-terminal derivative groups include — NRRI (other than — NH2), — NRC(O)R1, — NRC(O)OR1, — NRS(O)2R1, — NHC(O)NH1, succinimide, or benzyloxycarbonyl-NH — (Cbz-NH — ), wherein R and R1 are each independently hydrogen or lower alkyl and wherein the phenyl ring may be substituted with 1 to 3 substituents selected from C1-C4 alkyl, C1-C4 alkoxy, chloro, and bromo.
[0112] In one embodiment, one or more individual amino acid residues of the GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptide as described herein is derivatized. Various derivatizing agents are known to react specifically with selected sidechains or terminal residues, as described in detail below by way of example.
[0113] Lysinyl residues and amino terminal residues of the GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides described herein may be reacted with succinic or other carboxylic acid anhydrides, which reverse the charge of the lysinyl residues. Other suitable reagents for derivatizing alpha- amino-containing residues include imidoesters such as methyl picolinimidate; pyridoxal phosphate; pyridoxal; chloroborohydride; trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid; O-methylisourea; 2,4 pentanedione; and transaminase-catalyzed reaction with glyoxylate.
[0114] Arginyl residues may be modified by reaction with any one or combination of several conventional reagents, including phenylglyoxal, 2,3-butanedione, 1 ,2-cyclohexanedione, and ninhydrin. Derivatization of arginyl residues requires that the reaction be performed in alkaline conditions because of the high pKa of the guanidine functional group. Furthermore, these reagents may react with the groups of lysine as well as the arginine epsilon-amino group
[0115] Specific modification of tyrosyl residues has been studied extensively, with particular interest in introducing spectral labels into tyrosyl residues by reaction with aromatic diazonium compounds or tetranitromethane. Most commonly, N-acetylimidizole and tetranitromethane are used to form O-acetyl tyrosyl species and 3 -nitro derivatives, respectively.
[0116] Carboxyl sidechain groups (aspartyl or glutamyl) of the GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides described herein may be selectively modified by reaction with carbodiimides (R' — N=C=N — R') such as l-cyclohexyl-3-(2-morpholinyl-(4-ethyl) carbodiimide or l-ethyl-3-(4- azonia-4,4-dimethylpentyl) carbodiimide. Furthermore, aspartyl and glutamyl residues may be converted to asparaginyl and glutaminyl residues by reaction with ammonium ions.
[0117] Glutaminyl and asparaginyl residues may be deamidated to the corresponding glutamyl and aspartyl residues. Alternatively, these residues are deamidated under mildly acidic conditions.
[0118] Cysteinyl residues can be replaced by amino acid residues or other moieties either to eliminate disulfide bonding or, conversely, to stabilize cross-linking.
[0119] In one embodiment, one or more peptidyl [ — C(O)NR — ] linkages (bonds) between amino acid residues of the GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptide are replaced by a non- peptidyl linkage. Exemplary non-peptidyl linkages are — CH2-carbamate [ — CH2 — OC(O)NR — ], phosphonate, — CH2-sulfonamide [ — CH2 — S(O)2NR — ], urea [ — NHC(O)NH — ], — CH2- secondary amine, and alkylated peptide [ — C(O)NR6 — wherein R6 is lower alkyl],
[0120] Other possible modifications to the GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptide include hydroxylation of proline and lysine, phosphorylation of hydroxyl groups of seryl or threonyl residues, oxidation of the sulfur atom in Cys, methylation of the alpha-amino groups of lysine, arginine, and histidine side chains.CONJUGATE MOLECULES COMPRISING THE GLP-1 RECEPTOR AGONIST POLYPEPTIDES

[0160] Other peptide linkers that are suitable for inclusion in the molecules as described herein are provided in Table 2.Table 2. Linker Peptide Sequences
[0161] In one embodiment, the linker moiety, if present, is a non-peptidyl linker moiety.One non-limiting example class of suitable non-peptidyl linkers is polyethylene glycol (PEG) linkers, such as, e.g.,wherein n is such that the linker has a molecular weight of about 100 Daltons (Da) to about 5000 Da, preferably about 100 Da to about 500 Da. Additional non-peptidyl linker moieties that are suitable for incorporation into the GLP-1 agonist polypeptide containing molecules are disclosedinfra.

[0163] In one embodiment, the molecule disclosed herein comprise a GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptide of SEQ ID NO: 1582 covalently linked to the a-amino group of the lysine residue of the PEG20 linker (G-PEG20)-K as shown in FIG. 8.

[0165] Additional non-peptidyl linker moieties that are suitable for incorporation into the GLP-1 agonist polypeptide containing molecules include alkyl linkers such as -NH-(CH2)s-C(O), wherein s = 2-20. These alkyl linkers may further be substituted by any non-sterically hindering group such as lower alkyl (e.g., Ci-Ce) lower acyl, halogen (e.g., Cl, Br), CN, NEE, phenyl, etc.
[0166] Other suitable non-peptidyl linkers comprise a rigid polyheterocyclic core of controlled length. Such linkers may be chemically differentiated on either end to accommodate orthogonal coupling chemistries (i.e., azide “click”, amide coupling, thioether formation by alkylation with maleimide or haloacetamide, oxime formation, reductive amination, etc.).
[0167] Non-peptidyl linkers can be synthesized by conventional organic chemistry reactions.
[0168] The above is merely illustrative and not an exhaustive treatment of the kinds of non-peptidyl linkers that can optionally be employed in accordance with the present disclosure.
[0169] In one embodiment, the antagonist anti-GIPR antibodies of the conjugate molecules disclosed herein comprise at least one conjugation site. In one embodiment, the anti-GIPR antibodies of the conjugate molecule disclosed herein comprise at least two conjugation sites (e.g., a first and second conjugation site). The one or more conjugation sites of the anti- GIPR antibody are amenable to conjugation of the GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides as disclosed herein by a defined conjugation chemistry through the side chain of an amino acid residue at the conjugation site. GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides can be conjugated or coupled to the selected conjugation site of the anti-GIPR antibody through an assortment of different conjugation chemistries known in the art. For example, in one embodiment, a maleimide-activated conjugation partner targeting an accessible cysteine thiol on the anti-GIPR antibody can be used. In one embodiment, conjugation or coupling chemistries targeting the side chains of either canonical or non-canonical, e.g., unnatural, amino acids in the anti-GIPR antibody sequence can be used.
[0170] Chemistries for chemoselective conjugation of the anti-GIPR antibody to the GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptide include, but are not limited to, copper(I)-catalyzed azidealkyne [3+2] dipolar cycloadditions, Staudinger ligation, other acyl transfers processes, oximations, hydrazone bonding formation, and other suitable organic chemistry reactions such as cross-couplings using water-soluble palladium catalysts (see e.g., Bong et al., Organic Letters 3(16):2509-l 1 (2001); Dibowski et al. , Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 37(4):476-78 (1998); DeVasher et al., J. Org. Chem. 69:7919-27 (2004); Shaugnessy et al., J.Org. Chem, 68, 6767-6774 (2003); Prescher et al., Nature Chemical Biology 1(1); 13-21 (2005)).
[0171] In one embodiment, conjugation (or covalent binding) to the anti-GIPR antibody is through the side chain of an amino acid residue at the conjugation site, for example, but not limited to, a cysteinyl residue. The amino acid residue, for example, a cysteinyl residue, at the internal conjugation site that is selected can be one that occupies the same amino acid residue position in a native Fc domain sequence, or the amino acid residue can be engineered into the Fc domain sequence by substitution or insertion.
[0172] Non-limiting examples of unnatural amino acid residues that can be useful as a conjugation site include: azido-containing amino acid residues, e.g., azidohomoalanine, p-azido- phenylalanine; keto-containing amino acid residues, e.g., p-acetyl-phenylalanine; alkyne- containing amino acid residues, e.g., p-ethynylphenylalanine, homopropargylglycine, p-(prop-2- ynyl)-tyrosine; alkene-containing amino acid residues e.g., homoallylglycine; aryl halide-containing amino acid residues e.g. p-iodophenylalanine, p-bromophenylalanine; and 1,2- aminothiol containing amino acid residues.
[0173] Non-canonical amino acid residues (e.g., unnatural amino acid residues) can be incorporated into an anti-GIPR antibody by amino acid substitution or insertion. Non-canonical amino acid residues can be incorporated into the antibody by chemical peptide synthesis rather than by synthesis in biological systems, such as recombinantly expressing cells, or alternatively the skilled artisan can employ known techniques of protein engineering that use recombinantly expressing cells (see, e.g., Link et al., Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 14(6):603-609 (2003); U.S. Patent No. 7,045,337 to Schultz).
[0174] Any of the exposed amino acid residues on the anti-GIPR antibody can be potentially useful conjugation sites. Such sites may naturally contain cysteine or another reactive amino acid for site-selective coupling. Other sites can be mutated to a cysteine or another reactive amino acid for site-selective coupling. In some embodiments, the conjugation site is located within the light chain constant region (CL), heavy chain constant region 1 (CHI), CH2 or CH3 region of the anti-GIPR antibody.
[0175] In one embodiment, the anti-GIPR antibody comprises a cysteine amino acid at one or more conjugation site(s). In one embodiment, the one or more conjugation site(s) is located within the CL, CHI, CH2 or CH3 region of the anti-GIPR antibody. In one embodiment, the one or more conjugation site(s) are at positions independently selected from the group consisting of 88 (e.g., D88) of the light chain, 384 (e.g., E384) of the heavy chain, and 487 (e.g., T487) of the heavy chain, according to AHo numbering. For sake of clarity position 88 of the light chain according to Aho number corresponds to position 70 according to Kabat Numbering. Position 88 of the light chain according to AHo number corresponds to position 70 in the reference light chain antibody sequence of SEQ ID NO: 455 (light chain of anti-GIPR antibody 5G12.006). Position 88 of the light chain according to AHo number corresponds to position 70 in the reference light chain antibody sequence of SEQ ID NO: 388 (light chain of anti-GIPR antibody 2G10.006).
[0176] Position 384 of the heavy chain according to AHo numbering is another suitable conjugation site within the anti-GIPR antibody. Position 384 of the heavy chain according to AHo numbering corresponds to position 272 according to EU Numbering. Position 384 of the heavy chain according to AHo numbering corresponds to position 276 in the reference heavychain antibody sequence of SEQ ID NO: 612 (heavy chain of anti-GIPR antibody 5G12.006) and to position 275 in the reference heavy chain antibody sequence of SEQ ID NO: 545 (heavy chain of anti-GIPR antibody 2G10.006).
[0177] Position 487 of the heavy chain according to AHo numbering is another suitable conjugation site within the anti-GIPR antibody. Position 487 of the antibody heavy chain according to AHo numbering corresponds to position 359 according to EU numbering. Position 487 according to AHo numbering also corresponds to position 363 in the reference heavy chain antibody sequence of SEQ ID NO: 612 (heavy chain of anti-GIPR antibody 5G12.006) and position 362 in the reference heavy chain antibody sequence of SEQ ID NO: 545 (heavy chain of anti-GIPR antibody 2G10.006).

[0182] In one embodiment, the antagonist anti-GIPR antibody of the conjugate molecule of the present disclosure prevents or reduces binding of GIP to GIPR, where the level of prevention or reduction can be measured, for example, by a GIPR binding assay (e.g., a radioactive- or fluorescence-labeled GIP ligand binding study). A GIPR binding assay can be anassay using FMAT or FACS that measures fluorescence-labeled GIP binding to GIPR expressing cells, and the antagonistic activity of an anti-GIPR antibody is measured by its ability to displace fluorescence-labeled GIP binding to GIPR expressing cells. Alternatively, a GIPR binding assay can measure radioactive- labeled GIP binding to GIPR expressing cells, and the antagonist activity of an anti-GIPR antibody is measured by its ability to displace radioactive labeled GIP binding to GIPR expressing cells (see e.g., Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (2001) 1547:143-155). The reduction in GIP binding can be at least 10%, 25%, 50%, 100% or more relative treatment with a non-GIPR control antibody under comparable conditions.
[0183] In one embodiment, the antagonist anti-GIPR antibody of the conjugate molecule of the present disclosure prevents or reduces binding of GIP to GIPR, where the level of prevention or reduction is measured using a GIPR activity assay that measures GIP binding protein activity in a cellular setting. In one embodiment, the GIPR activity assay is a cAMP assay in GIPR expressing cells, in which GIP induces cAMP signal, and the antagonist activity of an anti-GIPR antibody is measured in the presence / absence of GIP ligand, in which IC50 / EC50 and degree of inhibition / activation can be obtained (see e.g., Gault et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. (2002) 290:1420-1426). In another embodiment, the GIPR activity assay is an insulin secretion assay in pancreatic beta cells. GIP induces glucose-dependent insulin secretion, and the antagonist activity of an anti-GIPR antibody is measured in the presence / absence of GIP ligand and the IC50 / EC50 and degree of GIP inhibition can be obtained (see e.g, Gault et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. (2002) 290:1420-1426).
[0184] The prevention or reduction of GIP binding to GIPR achieved using the anti- GIPR antibody-GLP-1 conjugate molecule of the present disclosure results in one or more of the following pharmacodynamic effects following in vivo administration: an increase in glucose tolerance; an increase in insulin sensitivity; a decrease in body weight or a reduction in body weight gain; a decrease in fat mass or a decrease in inflammation in fat tissue; a decrease in circulating cholesterol levels; a decrease in circulating triglyceride levels; a decrease in liver steatosis or reduction of the liver triglyceride level; a decrease one or more liver enzymes, e.g., aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and / or alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels.

[0213] In one embodiment, the antagonist anti-GIPR antibodies of the conjugate molecules herein are monoclonal antibodies that bind to GIPR. Monoclonal antibodies may be produced using any technique known in the art, e.g., by immortalizing spleen cells harvested from a transgenic animal capable of producing human antibodies (e.g., XenoMouse®) after completion of the immunization schedule. The spleen cells can be immortalized using any technique known in the art, e.g., by fusing them with myeloma cells to produce hybridomas. Myeloma cells for use in hybridoma-producing fusion procedures preferably are non-antibody-producing, have high fusion efficiency, and enzyme deficiencies that render them incapable of growing in certain selective media which support the growth of only the desired fused cells (hybridomas). Examples of suitable cell lines for use in mouse fusions include Sp-20, P3- X63 / Ag8, P3-X63-Ag8.653, NSl / l.Ag 4 1, Sp210-Agl4, FO, NSO / U, MPC-11, MPC11-X45- GTG 1.7 and S194 / 5XXO Bui; examples of cell lines used in rat fusions include R210.RCY3, Y3-Ag 1.2.3, IR983F and 4B210. Other cell lines useful for cell fusions are U-266, GM1500- GRG2, LICR-L0N-HMy2 and UC729-6.
[0214] In some instances, a hybridoma cell line is produced by immunizing an animal (e.g., a transgenic animal capable of producing human immunoglobulin sequences) with a GIPR immunogen; harvesting spleen cells from the immunized animal; fusing the harvested spleen cells to a myeloma cell line, thereby generating hybridoma cells; establishing hybridoma cell lines from the hybridoma cells, and identifying a hybridoma cell line that produces an antibody that binds a GIPR polypeptide. Anti-GIPR monoclonal antibodies produced by these hybridoma cells are suitable for inclusion in the molecules described herein.
[0215] Anti-GIPR monoclonal antibodies secreted by a hybridoma cell line can be purified using any technique known in the art. Hybridomas or mAbs may be further screened to identify mAbs with particular properties, such as the ability to antagonize GIPR activity.
[0216] Anti-GIPR chimeric and humanized antibodies are also suitable for use in the conjugate molecules described herein. The anti-GIPR antibody sequences disclosed herein may be modified in various ways prior to use. One example is a chimeric antibody, which is an antibody composed of protein segments from different antibodies that are covalently joined to produce functional immunoglobulin light or heavy chains or immunologically functional portions thereof. Generally, a portion of the heavy chain and / or light chain is identical with or homologous to a corresponding sequence in antibodies derived from a particular species or belonging to a particular antibody class or subclass, while the remainder of the chain(s) is / are identical with or homologous to a corresponding sequence in antibodies derived from another species or belonging to another antibody class or subclass. For methods relating to chimeric antibodies, see, for example, United States Patent No. 4,816,567; and Morrison et al., 1985, Proc. Natl. Acad. Set. USA 81:6851-6855. which are hereby incorporated by reference. CDR grafting is described, for example, in United States Patent No. 6,180,370, No. 5,693,762, No. 5,693,761, No. 5,585,089, and No. 5,530,101.
[0217] Generally, the goal of making a chimeric antibody is to create a chimera in which the number of amino acids from the intended subject species is maximized. One example is the “CDR-grafted” antibody, in which the antibody comprises one or more complementarity determining regions (CDRs) from a particular species or belonging to a particular antibody class or subclass, while the remainder of the antibody chain(s) is / are identical with or homologous to a corresponding sequence in antibodies derived from another species or belonging to another antibody class or subclass. For use in humans, the variable region or selected CDRs from a rodent antibody often are grafted into a human antibody, replacing the naturally-occurring variable regions or CDRs of the human antibody.
[0218] In one aspect, the CDRs of the light and heavy chain variable regions of the antibodies provided herein are grafted to framework regions (FRs) from antibodies from the same, or a different, phylogenetic species. For example, the CDRs of the heavy and light chain variable regions VHI, VH2, VH3, VH4, VH5, VH6, VH7, VH8, VH9, VHIO, VHI 1, VH12 and / or VLI , and VL2 can be grafted to consensus human FRs. To create consensus human FRs, FRs from several human heavy chain or light chain amino acid sequences may be aligned to identify a consensus amino acid sequence. In other embodiments, the FRs of a heavy chain or light chain disclosed herein are replaced with the FRs from a different heavy chain or light chain. In one aspect, rare amino acids in the FRs of the heavy and light chains of GIPR antibodies are not replaced, while the rest of the FR amino acids are replaced. A "rare amino acid" is a specific amino acid that is in a position in which this particular amino acid is not usually found in an FR. Alternatively, the grafted variable regions from the one heavy or light chain may be used with a constant region that is different from the constant region of that particular heavy or light chain as disclosed herein.
[0219] Human antagonist anti-GIPR antibodies are also provided. Methods are available for making human antibodies specific for a given antigen without exposing human beings to the antigen. One specific means provided for implementing the production of human antibodies is the "humanization" of the mouse humoral immune system. Introduction of human immunoglobulin (Ig) loci into mice in which the endogenous Ig genes have been inactivated is one means of producing human monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) in mouse, an animal that can be immunized with any desirable antigen. Using human antibodies can minimize the immunogenicand allergic responses that can sometimes be caused by administering mouse or mouse-derived mAbs to humans as therapeutic agents.
[0220] Human antibodies can be produced by immunizing transgenic animals (usually mice) that are capable of producing a repertoire of human antibodies in the absence of endogenous immunoglobulin production. Antigens for this purpose typically have six or more contiguous amino acids, and optionally are conjugated to a carrier, such as a hapten. See, e.g., Jakobovits et al., 1993, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90:2551-2555; Jakobovits et al., 1993, Nature 362:255-258; and Bruggermann et al., 1993, Year in Immunol. T. . In one example of such a method, transgenic animals are produced by incapacitating the endogenous mouse immunoglobulin loci encoding the mouse heavy and light immunoglobulin chains therein, and inserting into the mouse genome large fragments of human genome DNA containing loci that encode human heavy and light chain proteins. Partially modified animals, which have less than the full complement of human immunoglobulin loci, are then cross-bred to obtain an animal having all of the desired immune system modifications. When administered an immunogen, these transgenic animals produce antibodies that are immunospecific for the immunogen but have human rather than murine amino acid sequences, including the variable regions. For further details of such methods, see, for example, WO96 / 33735 and W094 / 02602. Additional methods relating to transgenic mice for making human antibodies are described in United States Patent No. 5,545,807; No. 6,713,610; No. 6,673,986; No. 6,162,963; No. 5,545,807; No. 6,300,129;No. 6,255,458; No. 5,877,397; No. 5,874,299 and No. 5,545,806; in PCT publications WO91 / 10741, W090 / 04036, and in EP 546073B1 and EP 546073 Al.
[0221] Suitable human antibodies can alternatively be derived from phage-display libraries (as disclosed in Hoogenboom et al., 1991, J. Mol. Biol. 227:381; and Marks et al., 1991, J. Mol. Biol. 222:581). Phage display techniques mimic immune selection through the display of antibody repertoires on the surface of filamentous bacteriophage, and subsequent selection of phage by their binding to an antigen of choice. One such technique is described in PCT Publication No. WO 99 / 10494 (hereby incorporated by reference).
[0222] The anti-GIPR antibody used in the molecules described herein may be prepared by any of a number of conventional techniques. For example, antibodies can be produced by recombinant expression systems. See, e.g., Monoclonal Antibodies, Hybridomas: A New Dimension in Biological Analyses, Kennet et al. (eds.) Plenum Press, New York (1980); andAntibodies: A Laboratory Manual, Harlow and Lane (eds.), Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y. (1988).
[0223] In one embodiment, the anti-GIPR antibodies provided herein are expressed in hybridoma cell lines or in cell lines other than hybridomas. Expression constructs encoding the anti-GIPR antibodies can be used to transform a mammalian, insect or microbial host cell. Transformation can be performed using any known method for introducing polynucleotides into a host cell, including, for example, packaging the polynucleotide in a virus or bacteriophage and transducing a host cell with the construct by transfection procedures known in the art, as exemplified by United States Patent No. 4,399,216; No. 4,912,040; No. 4,740,461;No. 4,959,455. The choice of transformation procedure used will depend upon which type of host cell is being transformed. Methods for introduction of heterologous polynucleotides into mammalian cells are known in the art and include, but are not limited to, dextran-mediated transfection, calcium phosphate precipitation, polybrene mediated transfection, protoplast fusion, electroporation, encapsulation of the polynucleotide(s) in liposomes, mixing nucleic acid with positively-charged lipids, and direct microinjection of the DNA into nuclei.
[0224] Recombinant expression constructs typically comprise a nucleic acid molecule encoding a polypeptide comprising one or more of the following: one or more light chain CDRs; one or more heavy chain CDRs; a light chain constant region; a light chain variable region; a heavy chain constant region (e.g., CHI, CH2 and / or CH3); and a heavy chain variable region of an anti-GIPR antibody. These nucleic acid sequences are inserted into an appropriate expression vector using standard ligation techniques. In one embodiment, the heavy or light chain constant region is appended to the C-terminus of the anti-GIPR specific heavy or light chain variable region and is ligated into an expression vector. The vector is typically selected to be functional in the particular host cell employed (i.e., the vector is compatible with the host cell machinery, permitting amplification, and / or expression of the gene can occur).
[0225] Typically, expression vectors used in any of the host cells will contain sequences for plasmid maintenance and for cloning and expression of exogenous nucleotide sequences. Such sequences, collectively referred to as “flanking sequences,” can include one or more of the following nucleotide sequences: a promoter, one or more enhancer sequences, an origin of replication, a transcriptional termination sequence, a complete intron sequence containing a donor and acceptor splice site, a sequence encoding a leader sequence for polypeptide secretion,a ribosome binding site, a polyadenylation sequence, a polylinker region for inserting the nucleic acid encoding the polypeptide to be expressed, and a selectable marker element.
[0226] Flanking sequences may be homologous (i.e., from the same species and / or strain as the host cell), heterologous (i.e., from a species other than the host cell species or strain), hybrid (i.e., a combination of flanking sequences from more than one source), synthetic, or native. As such, the source of a flanking sequence may be any prokaryotic or eukaryotic organism, any vertebrate or invertebrate organism, or any plant, provided that the flanking sequence is functional in, and can be activated by, the host cell machinery.
[0227] Flanking sequences useful in the vectors can be obtained by methods known in the art. Typically, flanking sequences will have been previously identified by mapping and / or by restriction endonuclease digestion and can thus be isolated from the proper tissue source using the appropriate restriction endonucleases. In some cases, the full nucleotide sequence of a flanking sequence may be known. The flanking sequence may be synthesized using conventional methods for nucleic acid synthesis or cloning.
[0228] An origin of replication is typically a part of commercially available prokaryotic expression vectors; the origin of replication aids in the amplification of the vector in a host cell. If the vector of choice does not contain an origin of replication site, one may be chemically synthesized based on a known sequence and ligated into the vector. For example, the origin of replication from the plasmid pBR322 (New England Biolabs, Beverly, MA) is suitable for most gram-negative bacteria and various viral origins (e.g., SV40, polyoma, adenovirus, vesicular stomatitus virus (VSV), or papillomaviruses, such as, e.g., HPV or BPV). Generally, the origin of replication component is not needed for mammalian expression vectors (for example, the SV40 origin is often used only because it also contains the virus early promoter).
[0229] A transcription termination sequence is typically located 3' to the end of a polypeptide coding region and serves to terminate transcription. Usually, a transcription termination sequence in prokaryotic cells is a G-C rich fragment followed by a poly-T sequence. While the sequence is easily cloned from a library or even purchased commercially as part of a vector, it can also be readily synthesized using conventional methods for nucleic acid synthesis.
[0230] A selectable marker gene encodes a protein necessary for the survival and growth of a host cell grown in a selective culture medium. Typical selection marker genes encode proteins that (a) confer resistance to antibiotics or other toxins, e.g., ampicillin, tetracycline, orkanamycin for prokaryotic host cells; (b) complement auxotrophic deficiencies of the cell; or (c) supply critical nutrients not available from complex or defined media. Specific selectable markers are the kanamycin resistance gene, the ampicillin resistance gene, and the tetracycline resistance gene. Advantageously, a neomycin resistance gene may also be used for selection in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic host cells.
[0231] Other selectable genes may be used to amplify the gene that will be expressed. Amplification is the process wherein genes that are required for production of a protein critical for growth or cell survival are reiterated in tandem within the chromosomes of successive generations of recombinant cells. Examples of suitable selectable markers for mammalian cells include dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) and promoter-less thymidine kinase genes. Mammalian cell transformants are placed under selection pressure wherein only the transformants are uniquely adapted to survive by virtue of the selectable gene present in the vector. Selection pressure is imposed by culturing the transformed cells under conditions in which the concentration of selection agent in the medium is successively increased, thereby leading to the amplification of both the selectable gene and the DNA that encodes another gene, such as an antibody that binds GIPR polypeptide. As a result, increased quantities of a polypeptide such as an anti-GIPR antibody are synthesized from the amplified DNA.
[0232] A ribosome-binding site is usually necessary for translation initiation of mRNA and is characterized by a Shine-Dalgarno sequence (prokaryotes) or a Kozak sequence (eukaryotes). The element is typically located 3' to the promoter and 5' to the coding sequence of the polypeptide to be expressed.
[0233] In some cases, such as where glycosylation is desired in a eukaryotic host cell expression system, one may manipulate the various pre- or pro-sequences to improve glycosylation or yield. For example, one may alter the peptidase cleavage site of a particular signal peptide, or add prosequences, which also may affect glycosylation. The final protein product may have, in the -1 position (relative to the first amino acid of the mature protein), one or more additional amino acids incident to expression, which may not have been totally removed. For example, the final protein product may have one or two amino acid residues found in the peptidase cleavage site, attached to the amino-terminus. Alternatively, use of some enzyme cleavage sites may result in a slightly truncated form of the desired polypeptide, if the enzyme cuts at such area within the mature polypeptide.
[0234] Expression and cloning will typically contain a promoter that is recognized by the host organism and operably linked to the molecule encoding the anti-GIPR antibody. Promoters are untranscribed sequences located upstream (i.e., 5') to the start codon of a structural gene (generally within about 100 to 1000 bp) that control transcription of the structural gene. Promoters are conventionally grouped into one of two classes: inducible promoters and constitutive promoters. Inducible promoters initiate increased levels of transcription from DNA under their control in response to some change in culture conditions, such as the presence or absence of a nutrient or a change in temperature. Constitutive promoters, on the other hand, uniformly transcribe a gene to which they are operably linked, that is, with little or no control over gene expression. A large number of promoters, recognized by a variety of potential host cells, are known. A suitable promoter is operably linked to the DNA encoding heavy chain or light chain comprising a GIPR antibody by removing the promoter from the source DNA by restriction enzyme digestion and inserting the desired promoter sequence into the vector.
[0235] Suitable promoters for use with yeast hosts are also known in the art. Yeast enhancers are advantageously used with yeast promoters. Suitable promoters for use with mammalian host cells are known and include, but are not limited to, those obtained from the genomes of viruses such as polyoma virus, fowlpox virus, adenovirus (such as, e.g., Adenovirus 2), bovine papilloma virus, avian sarcoma virus, cytomegalovirus, retroviruses, hepatitis-B virus, and Simian Virus 40 (SV40). Other suitable mammalian promoters include, but are not limited to, heterologous mammalian promoters, for example, heat-shock promoters and the actin promoter.
[0236] An enhancer sequence may be inserted into the vector to increase transcription of DNA encoding the light chain or heavy chain of an anti-GIPR antibody by higher eukaryotes. Enhancers are cis-acting elements of DNA, usually about 10-300 bp in length, which act on the promoter to increase transcription. Enhancers are relatively orientation and position independent, having been found at positions both 5' and 3' to the transcription unit. Several enhancer sequences available from mammalian genes are known (e.g., globin, elastase, albumin, alpha- feto-protein and insulin). Alternatively, an enhancer from a virus can be used. The SV40 enhancer, the cytomegalovirus early promoter enhancer, the polyoma enhancer, and adenovirus enhancers known in the art are non-limiting examples of enhancing elements for the activation of eukaryotic promoters. While an enhancer may be positioned in the vector either 5' or 3' to acoding sequence, it is typically located at a site 5' from the promoter. A sequence encoding an appropriate native or heterologous signal sequence (leader sequence or signal peptide) can be incorporated into an expression vector, e.g., to promote extracellular secretion of the antibody. The choice of signal peptide or leader depends on the type of host cells in which the antibody is to be produced, and a heterologous signal sequence can replace the native signal sequence. Non-limiting examples of signal peptides that are functional in mammalian host cells include the following: the signal sequence for interleukin-7 (IL-7) described in US Patent No. 4,965,195; the signal sequence for interleukin-2 receptor described in Cosman etNature 312:768; the interleukin-4 receptor signal peptide described in EP Patent No. 0367 566; the type I interleukin- 1 receptor signal peptide described in U.S. Patent No. 4,968,607; the type II interleukin-1 receptor signal peptide described in EP Patent No. 0460 846.
[0237] In one embodiment the leader sequence comprises SEQ ID NO: 1655 (MDMRVPAQLL GLLLLWLRGA RC). In another embodiment the leader sequence comprises SEQ ID NO: 1656 (MAWALLLLTL LTQGTGSWA).
[0238] Expression vectors may be constructed from a starting vector such as a commercially available vector. Such vectors may or may not contain all of the desired flanking sequences. Where one or more of the flanking sequences described herein are not already present in the vector, they may be individually obtained and ligated into the vector. Methods used for obtaining each of the flanking sequences are known to one skilled in the art.
[0239] Optionally, the vector may contain a “tag”-encoding sequence, i.e., an oligonucleotide molecule located at the 5' or 3' end of the GIPR antibody coding sequence; the oligonucleotide sequence encodes polyHis (such as hexaHis), or another “tag” such as FLAG®, HA (hemagglutinin influenza virus), or myc, for which commercially available antibodies exist. This tag is typically fused to the polypeptide upon expression of the polypeptide, and can serve as a means for affinity purification or detection of the antibody from the host cell. Affinity purification can be accomplished, for example, by column chromatography using antibodies against the tag as an affinity matrix. Optionally, the tag can subsequently be removed from the purified antibody by various means such as using certain peptidases for cleavage.
[0240] After the vector has been constructed and a nucleic acid molecule encoding a light chain, a heavy chain, or a light chain and a heavy chain has been inserted into the proper site of the vector, the completed vector may be inserted into a suitable host cell for amplification and / orpolypeptide expression. The transformation of an expression vector encoding an antibody into a selected host cell may be accomplished by conventional methods including, but not limited to, transfection, infection, calcium phosphate co-precipitation, electroporation, microinjection, lipofection, DEAE-dextran mediated transfection, or other known techniques. The method selected will in part be a function of the type of host cell to be used.
[0241] A host cell, when cultured under appropriate conditions, synthesizes an anti-GIPR antibody that can subsequently be collected from the culture medium (if the host cell secretes it into the medium) or directly from the host cell producing it (if it is not secreted). The selection of an appropriate host cell will depend upon various factors, such as, e.g., desired expression levels, polypeptide modifications that are desirable or necessary for activity (such as, e.g., glycosylation or phosphorylation), and ease of folding into a biologically active molecule.
[0242] Mammalian cell lines available as hosts for expression are known in the art and include, but are not limited to, immortalized cell lines available from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC), including, but not limited to, Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, HeLa cells, baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells, monkey kidney cells (COS), human hepatocellular carcinoma cells (e.g., Hep G2), and a number of other cell lines. In one embodiment, a host cell line can be selected by determining which cell lines have high expression levels and constitutively produce the desired anti-GIPR antibody. In one embodiment, a cell line from the B cell lineage that does not make its own antibody but has a capacity to make and secrete a heterologous antibody can be selected.
[0243] Additionally, in one embodiment, a mammalian cell line modified to provide for reduced cleavage of peptides that will be conjugated to polypeptides expressed by the cells (e.g., a cathepsin D knock-out cell line) can be used. In one embodiment, a mammalian cell line (e.g., a CHO cell line) in which both alleles of cathepsin D are knocked out (e.g., using CRISPR or zinc-finger technology) can be used. An example of a cathepsin D knock-out cell that can be used to produce an antibody-peptide conjugate of the disclosure is described in WO 2023 / 086790, which is incorporated by reference herein.PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS
