In some embodiments, some or all of the heavy chains of nipocalimab may be missing the glycine residue at the C-terminus of SEQ ID NO: 2 (for example, as in SEQ ID NO: 20). In some embodiments, some or all of the heavy chains of nipocalimab may be missing the glycine residue at the C-terminus of SEQ ID NO: 2 (for example, as in SEQ ID NO: 20) and, additionally, the C-terminal proline may be amidated.
[0120] As used herein, the terms "a" or "an" means that "at least one" or "one or more" unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
[0121] As used herein, the term "about" means that the numerical value is approximate and small variations would not significantly affect the practice of the disclosed embodiments. Where a numerical limitation is used, unless indicated otherwise by the context, "about" means the numerical value can vary by + / -10% and remain within the scope of the disclosed embodiments. Additionally, although a value may be preceded by the term “about” the exact value is also provided for herein, i.e., without the term “about.”
[0122] The term “antibody”, as used herein, is used in the broadest sense and encompasses various antibody structures, including but not limited to monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), scFvs, nanobodies, VHH, and antibody fragments so long as they exhibit FcRn antigen-binding activity.
[0123] “Antibody fragments” comprise a portion of an intact antibody, including the antigen binding or variable region of the intact antibody. Examples of antibody fragments include Fab, Fab’, F(ab’)2, and Fv fragments, diabodies, linear antibodies, single-chain antibody molecules, and multispecific antibodies.
[0124] Additionally, antibody or antibody molecule, as that term is used herein, refers to a polypeptide, e.g., an immunoglobulin chain or fragment thereof, comprising at least one functional immunoglobulin variable domain sequence. An antibody molecule encompasses antibodies (e.g., full-length antibodies) and antibody fragments. In some embodiments, an antibody molecule comprises an antigen binding or functional fragment of a full-length antibody, or a full-length immunoglobulin chain. For example, a full-length antibody is an immunoglobulin (Ig) molecule (e.g., an IgG antibody) that is naturally occurring or formed by normal immunoglobulin gene fragment recombinatorial processes). In embodiments, an antibody molecule refers to an immunologically active, antigen-binding portion of an immunoglobulin molecule, such as an antibody fragment. An antibody fragment, e.g., functional fragment, comprises a portion of an antibody, e.g., Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, F(ab)2, variable fragment (Fv), domain antibody (dAb), or single chain variable fragment (scFv). A functional antibody fragment binds to the same antigen as that recognized by the intact (e.g., full-length) antibody. The terms “antibody fragment” or “functional fragment” also include isolated fragments consisting of the variable regions, such as the “Fv” fragments consisting of the variable regions of the heavy and light chains or recombinant single chain polypeptide molecules in which light and heavy variable regions are connected by a peptide linker (“scFv proteins”). In some embodiments, an antibody fragment does not include portions of antibodies without antigen binding activity, such as Fc fragments or single amino acid residues. Exemplary antibody molecules include full length antibodies and antibody fragments, e.g., dAb (domain antibody), single chain, Fab, Fab’, and F(ab’)2 fragments, and single chain variable fragments (scFvs). As used herein, the term “isolated antibody” refers to an antibody which has been separated and / or recovered from a component of its manufacturing host cell environment. Contaminant components of its manufacturing host cell environment are materials which would interfere with research, diagnostic, or therapeutic uses of the antibody. Contaminant components may include enzymes, hormones, and other proteinaceous or nonproteinaceous solutes. In some embodiments, an antibody is purified (1) to greater than 95% by weight of antibody as determined by, for example, the Lowry method, and in some embodiments, to greater than 99% by weight; (2) to a degree sufficient to obtain at least 15 residues of N-terminal or internal amino acid sequence by use of, for example, a spinning cup sequenator, or (3) to homogeneity by SDS-PAGE under reducing or nonreducing conditions using, for example, Coomassie blue or silver stain. An isolated antibody includes the antibody in situ within recombinant cells. Ordinarily, however, an isolated antibody will be prepared by at least one purification step. A pharmaceutical preparation of an isolated antibody typically has less than 250 ppm (e.g., less than 200ppm, 150ppm. 100 ppm) of host cell proteins (HCP) as determined by an ELISA based HCP assay performed as recommended by an FDA “Guidance for Industry” document.
[0125] As used herein, the term “baseline” in reference to amount, concentration or level of a molecule refers to the amount, concentration, or level of the molecule prior to the administration of a therapeutic (e.g., antibody) provided for herein.
[0126] As used herein, the terms "comprising" (and any form of comprising, such as "comprise", "comprises", and "comprised"), "having" (and any form of having, such as "have" and "has"), "including" (and any form of including, such as "includes" and "include"), or "containing" (and any form of containing, such as "contains" and "contain"), are inclusive or open-ended and do not exclude additional, unrecited elements or method steps. Any step or composition that uses the transitional phrase of "comprise" or "comprising" can also be said to describe the same with the transitional phases of "consisting of," "consists," “consisting essentially of,” or “consists essentially of.”
[0127] Immunoglobulin chains exhibit the same general structure of relatively conserved framework regions (FR) joined by three hypervariable regions, also called complementarity determining regions or CDRs. The CDRs from the two chains of each pair are aligned by the framework regions, enabling binding to a specific epitope. From N-terminus to C-terminus, both light and heavy chains comprise the domains FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3 and FR4. The assignment of amino acids to each domain is in accordance with the definitions of Kabat Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md. (1987 and 1991)), or Chothia & Lesk J. Mol. Biol. 196:901-917 (1987); Chothia et al. Nature 342:878-883 (1989), each of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. In some embodiments, the antibodies provided herein comprise the same FRs and different CDRs. In some embodiments, the antibodies provided herein comprise the same CDRs and different FRs. In some embodiments, mutations in the FR are in the heavy chain. In some embodiments, mutations in the FR are in the FR1 of the heavy chain. In some embodiments, mutations in the FR are in the FR2 of the heavy chain. In some embodiments, mutations in the FR are in the FR3 of the heavy chain. In some embodiments, mutations in the FR are in the FR4 of the heavy chain. In some embodiments, mutations in the FR are in the light chain. In some embodiments, mutations in the FR are in the FR1 of the light chain. In some embodiments, mutations in the FR are in the FR2 of the light chain. In some embodiments, mutations in the FR are in the FR3 of the light chain. In some embodiments, mutations in the FR are in the FR4 of the light chain. In some embodiments, mutations in the FR are in the heavy and light chains. In some embodiments, mutations in the FR are in any one or more of the FRs of the heavy and light chains.
[0128] The term “antibody molecule” also encompasses whole or fragments of antigen binding domain, or single domain antibodies, which can also be referred to as “sdAb” or “VHH.” Domain antibodies comprise either VH or VL that can act as stand-alone, antibody fragments. Additionally, domain antibodies include heavy-chain-only antibodies (HCAbs). Domain antibodies also include a CH2 domain of an IgG as the base scaffold into which CDR loops are grafted. It can also be generally defined as a polypeptide or protein comprising an amino acid sequence that is comprised of four framework regions interrupted by three complementarity determining regions. This is represented as FR1-CDR1-FR2-CDR2-FR3-CDR3-FR4. sdAbs can be produced in camelids such as llamas, but can also be synthetically generated using techniques that are well known in the art. The numbering of the amino acid residues of a sdAb or polypeptide is according to the general numbering for VH domains given by Kabat et al. ("Sequence of proteins of immunological interest," US Public Health Services, NIH Bethesda, MD, Publication No. 91, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety). According to this numbering, FR1 of a sdAb comprises the amino acid residues at positions 1-30, CDR1 of a sdAb comprises the amino acid residues at positions 31-36, FR2 of a sdAb comprises the amino acids at positions 36-49, CDR2 of a sdAb comprises the amino acid residues at positions 50-65, FR3 of a sdAb comprises the amino acid residues at positions 66- 94, CDR3 of a sdAb comprises the amino acid residues at positions 95- 102, and FR4 of a sdAb comprises the amino acid residues at positions 103-113. Domain antibodies are also described in W02004041862 and WO2016065323, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. In some embodiments, as provided for herein, antibody molecules can be monospecific (e.g., monovalent or bivalent), bispecific (e.g., bivalent, trivalent, tetravalent, pentavalent, or hexavalent), trispecific (e.g., trivalent, tetravalent, pentavalent, hexavalent), or with higher orders of specificity (e.g., tetraspecific) and / or higher orders of valency beyond hexavalency. An antibody molecule can comprise a functional fragment of a light chain variable region and a functional fragment of a heavy chain variable region, or heavy and light chains may be fused together into a single polypeptide.
[0129] As used herein, the term “fused” or “linked” when used in reference to a protein having different domains or heterologous sequences means that the protein domains are part of the same peptide chain that are connected to one another with either peptide bonds or other covalent bonding. The domains or section can be linked or fused directly to one another, or another domain or peptide sequence can be between the two domains or sequences and such sequences would still be considered fused or linked to one another. In some embodiments, the various domains or proteins provided for herein are linked or fused directly to one another or a linker sequences, such as a glycine / serine, glycine / alanine linker or other types of peptide linkers generally known to link the two domains together. Two peptide sequences are linked directly if they are directly connected to one another or indirectly if there is a linker or other structure that links the two regions. A linker can be directly linked to two different peptide sequences or domains.
[0130] As used herein, the terms “variable region” and “variable domain” refer to the portions of the light and heavy chains of an antibody that include amino acid sequences of complementary determining regions (CDRs, e g., CDR LI, CDR L2, CDR L3, CDR Hl, CDR H2, and CDR H3) and framework regions (FRs). According to the methods used in this disclosure, the amino acid positions assigned to CDRs and FRs are defined according to Kabat (Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD. (1991), which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety). Using this numbering system, the actual linear amino acid sequence may contain fewer or additional amino acids corresponding to a shortening of, or insertion into, a CDR (defined further herein) or FR (defined further herein) of the variable region. For example, a heavy chain variable region may include a single inserted residue (i.e., residue 52a according to Kabat) after residue 52 of CDR H2 and inserted residues (i.e., residues 82a, 82b, 82c, etc. according to Kabat) after residue 82 of heavy chain FR. The Kabat numbering of residues may be determined for a given antibody by alignment at regions of homology of the sequence of the antibody with a “standard” Kabat numbered sequence.
[0131] As used herein, the terms “complementary determining regions” and “CDRs” refer to the regions of an antibody variable domain or variable region which are hypervariable in sequence and / or form structurally defined loops. A CDR is also known as a hypervariable region. The light chain and heavy chain variable regions each have three CDRs. The light chain variable region contains CDR LI, CDR L2, and CDR L3. The heavy chain variable region contains CDR Hl, CDR H2, and CDR H3. Each CDR may include amino acid residues from a complementarity determining region as defined by Kabat (i.e., about residues 24-34 (CDR LI), 50-56 (CDR L2) and 89-97 (CDR L3) in the light chain variable region and about residues 31-35 (CDR Hl), 50-65 (CDR H2) and 95- 102 (CDR H3) in the heavy chain variable region.
[0132] As used herein, the term “FcRn” refers a neonatal Fc receptor that binds to the Fc region of an IgG antibody, e.g., an IgGl antibody. An exemplary FcRn is human FcRn having UniProt ID No. P55899, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Without being bound to any particular theory, human FcRn is believed to be responsible for maintaining the half-life of IgG by binding and trafficking constitutively internalized IgG back to the cell surface for the recycling of IgG.
[0133] In some embodiments, the anti-FcRn antibody comprises a heavy chain or light chain. In some embodiments, the anti-FcRn antibody comprises a heavy chain and a light chain in a scFv format. In some embodiments, the heavy and light chain are linked with a peptide linker, such a glycine / serine or glycine / alanine linker.
[0134] As used herein, the term “percent (%) identity” refers to the percentage of amino acid (or nucleic acid) residues of a candidate sequence, e.g., an anti-FcRn antibody of the disclosure, that are identical to the amino acid (or nucleic acid) residues of a reference sequence, e.g., a wild-type anti- FcRn antibody, after aligning the sequences and introducing gaps, if necessary, to achieve the maximum percent identity (i.e., gaps can be introduced in one or both of the candidate and reference sequences for optimal alignment and non-homologous sequences can be disregarded for comparison purposes). Alignment for purposes of determining percent identity can be achieved in various ways that are within the skill in the art, for instance, using publicly available computer software such as BLAST, ALIGN, or Megalign (DNASTAR) software. Those skilled in the art can determine appropriate parameters for measuring alignment, including any algorithms needed to achieve maximal alignment over the full length of the sequences being compared. In some embodiments, the percent amino acid (or nucleic acid) sequence identity of a given candidate sequence to, with, or against a given reference sequence (which can alternatively be phrased as a given candidate sequence that has or includes a certain percent amino acid (or nucleic acid) sequence identity to, with, or against a given reference sequence) is calculated as follows:
[0135] 100 x (fraction of A / B) where A is the number of amino acid (or nucleic acid) residues scored as identical in the alignment of the candidate sequence and the reference sequence, and where B is the total number of amino acid (or nucleic acid) residues in the reference sequence. In some embodiments where the length of the candidate sequence does not equal to the length of the reference sequence, the percent amino acid (or nucleic acid) sequence identity of the candidate sequence to the reference sequence would not equal to the percent amino acid (or nucleic acid) sequence identity of the reference sequence to the candidate sequence.
[0136] In some embodiments, a reference sequence aligned for comparison with a candidate sequence may show that the candidate sequence exhibits from 50% to 100% identity across the full length of the candidate sequence or a selected portion of contiguous amino acid (or nucleic acid) residues of the candidate sequence. The length of the candidate sequence aligned for comparison purpose is at least 30%, e.g., at least 40%, e.g., at least 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, or 100% of the length of the reference sequence. When a position in the candidate sequence is occupied by the same amino acid (or nucleic acid) residue as the corresponding position in the reference sequence, then the molecules are identical at that position. A position may be altered by a substitution, deletion, or insertion. A substitution, deletion, or insertion may comprise a certain number of amino acids, (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, or more). When describing a substitution, deletion, or insertion of no more than n amino acids, this is meant that the substitution, deletion, or insertion comprises, e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, or n amino acids. The number or substitutions, deletions, or insertions can comprise a percent of the total sequence (e.g., 1%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, or more) where the number of substitutions, deletions, or insertions alters 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% or more, of the amino acids in the total sequence.
[0137] As used herein, the term “pathogenic antibody” refers to an antibody that causes one or more immune diseases or disorders in a subject (e.g., a pregnant subject), a fetus in a pregnant subject, and / or a neonate. In some embodiments, pathogenic antibodies are autoantibodies produced in a subject (e.g., a pregnant subject) against one or more of the subject’s own proteins, thus causing autoimmune diseases or disorders in the subject. In some embodiments, pathogenic antibodies in a pregnant subject may transfer through the placenta to the fetus and react against antigens from the fetus (e.g., antigens that the fetus inherited from the fetus’ father), thus causing, e.g., fetal and neonatal alloimmune and / or autoimmune disorders.
[0138] As used herein, the term “antibody-mediated enhancement of viral disease” refers to a viral disease in which antibodies can facilitate viral entry into host cells, thus leading to increased or enhanced infectivity in the cells. In some embodiments, an antibody may bind to a viral surface protein and the antibody / virus complex may bind to an FcRn receptor on a cell surface through interaction between the antibody and the receptor. Subsequently, the antibody / virus complex may be internalized into the cell. As used herein, the term “pharmaceutical composition” refers to a medicinal or pharmaceutical formulation that contains an active ingredient and optionally one or more excipients and diluents to enable the active ingredient suitable for the method of administration. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition of the present disclosure includes pharmaceutically acceptable components that are compatible with the anti-FcRn antibody. The pharmaceutical composition may be in aqueous form for intravenous or subcutaneous administration or in tablet or capsule form for oral administration.
[0139] As used herein, “stable” or “stability” refers to the pharmaceutical composition and the extent to which the bispecific antibody, or antigen binding fragment thereof, retains, within specified limits and throughout its period of storage and use, the same or nearly the same properties and characteristics that is possessed at the time of its manufacture. These antibody (or antigen binding fragment thereof) properties and characteristics can be, for example, activity, aggregation or lack thereof, degradation products or lack thereof, or other relevant measurements. Thus, in some embodiments, any pharmaceutical composition disclosed herein may be stable, or retain stability, for a given period. For example, in some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is stable at a temperature of about 2-8°C after at least six months, after at least one year, or after at least two years.
[0140] As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” refers to an excipient or diluent in a pharmaceutical composition. The pharmaceutically acceptable carrier must be compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not deleterious to the recipient. In the present disclosure, the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier must provide adequate pharmaceutical stability to the Fc construct. The nature of the carrier differs with the mode of administration. For example, for intravenous administration, an aqueous solution carrier is generally used; for oral administration, a solid carrier is generally used.
[0141] As used herein, the term “therapeutically effective amount” refers to an amount, e.g., pharmaceutical dose, effective in inducing a desired biological effect in a subject or patient or in treating a patient having a condition or disorder described herein. It is also to be understood herein that a “therapeutically effective amount” may be interpreted as an amount giving a desired therapeutic effect, either taken in one dose or in any dosage or route, taken alone or in combination with other therapeutic agents.
[0142] As used herein, the term “no more than” refers to an amount that is less than or equal to. This may be an amount in integers. For example, no more than two substitutions can refer to 0, 1, or 2 substitutions. As used herein, the terms “treatment” or “treating” refer to reducing, decreasing, decreasing the risk of, or decreasing the side effects of a particular disease or condition. Reducing, decreasing, decreasing the risk of, or decreasing the side effects of are relative to a subject who did not receive treatment, e.g., a control, a baseline, or a known control level or measurement.
[0143] Described herein is a method for administration of anti-FcRn antibodies, such as preferably nipocalimab. The methods can include the administration of a loading dose followed 1 week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks, or 4 weeks later by the initiation of weekly, biweekly, every 3 weeks, or monthly dosing at a maintenance dose lower than the loading dose (e.g., a dose that is about 75%, about 50%, about 25%, about 20%, about 15%, about 10%, or about 5% of the loading dose. The antibodies can be administered by IV or subcutaneously relatively rapidly, yet safely.
[0144] Anti-FcRn antibodies
[0145] In some embodiments, the anti-FcRn antibody is M281. In some embodiments, the anti- FcRn antibody is nipocalimab. As used herein, “M281” and “nipocalimab” refer to the same antibody and can be used interchangeably. In some embodiments, M281 or nipocalimab comprise a light chain comprising or consisting of the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 and a heavy chain comprising or consisting of a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 2, 19, 20 and 21. In some embodiments, M281 or nipocalimab comprise a light chain comprising or consisting of the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 and a heavy chain comprising or consisting of the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2. In some embodiments, some or all of the heavy chains of nipocalimab may comprise an additional lysine residue at the C-terminus of SEQ ID NO: 2 (for example, as in SEQ ID NO: 21). In some embodiments, some or all of the heavy chains of nipocalimab may be missing the glycine residue at the C-terminus of SEQ ID NO: 2 (for example, as in SEQ ID NO: 20). In some embodiments, some or all of the heavy chains of nipocalimab may be missing the glycine residue at the C-terminus of SEQ ID NO: 2 (for example, as in SEQ ID NO: 20) and, additionally, the C-terminal proline may be amidated. In some embodiments, some or all of the heavy chains of nipocalimab may be missing the proline and glycine residues at the C-terminus of SEQ ID NO: 2 (for example, as in SEQ ID NO: 19).
[0146] The term "nipocalimab” as used herein is intended to encompass biosimilar anti-FcRn antibodies that are equivalent to the nipocalimab protein developed and marketed by Johnson and Johnson. For example, a biosimilar of nipocalimab may be acceptable to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and / or the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) when it has essentially the same pharmacological effects as the reference product nipocalimab. For example, a biosimilar of nipocalimab may comprise or consist of the same heavy and light chains sequences as nipocalimab, with the exception that the C-terminal amino acid of the heavy chain may be absent, e.g. compared to SEQ ID NO: 2.
[0147] Nipocalimab may comprise a mixture of different species, wherein the C-terminal end of the heavy chain may differ between different species of nipocalimab. In some embodiments, nipocalimab may comprise a mixture of different heavy chains in a single antibody molecule (i.e. nipocalimab may be a heterodimer), for example where a heavy chain has undergone C-terminal modifications. Generally, all heavy chains of nipocalimab antibodies comprises at least the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 19.
[0148] In some embodiments, nipocalimab comprises a light chain consisting of the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 and a heavy chain comprising a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 19.

In some embodiments, the nipocalimab formulation may comprise about 97-99% of component (a), about 0.5-1.0% of component (b) and about 1-2%, of component (c).
[0159] In some embodiments, about 95-100%, or about 96-99%, or about 97-99% of the heavy chains in the nipocalimab formulation consist of the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2, about 0.1- 1%, or about 0.2-1.0%, or about 0.3-1.0%, or about 0.5-1.0% of the heavy chains in the nipocalimab formulation consist of the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 20, wherein the C-terminal proline of SEQ ID NO: 20 may be amidated, and about 0.1-10%, or about 0.5-8%, or about 0.5-5%, or about 1-5%, or about 1-4%, or about 1-3%, or about 1-2% of the heavy chains in the nipocalimab formulation consist of the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 21.

[0181] The antibodies may further comprise amino acid substitutions, additions, and / or deletions outside of the CDRs (i.e., in framework regions (FRs)). In some embodiments, the amino acid substitution, addition, and / or deletion is a substitution, addition, and / or deletion of one or more amino acids (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or more). In some embodiments, an amino acid substitution, addition, and / or deletion is a substitution, addition, and / or deletion of eight or fewer, seven or fewer, six or fewer, five or fewer, four or fewer, three or fewer, or two or fewer single amino acids.
[0182] In some embodiments, the antibodies may include amino acid substitutions, additions, and / or deletions in the constant regions (e.g., Fc region) of the antibody that, e.g., lead to decreased effector function, e.g., decreased complement-dependent cytolysis (CDC), antibody-dependent cell- mediated cytolysis (ADCC), and / or antibody-dependent cell-mediated phagocytosis (ADCP), and / or decreased B-cell killing. The constant regions are not involved directly in binding an antibody to its target, but exhibit various effector functions, such as participation of the antibody in antibody-dependent cellular toxicity. In some embodiments, the antibodies are characterized by decreased binding (i.e., absence of binding) to human complement factor Clq and / or human Fc receptor on natural killer (NK) cells. In some embodiments, the antibodies are characterized by decreased binding (i.e., absence of binding) to human FcyRI, FcyRIIA, and / or FcyRIIIA. To alter or reduce an antibody-dependent effector function, such as CDC, ADCC, ADCP, and / or B-cell killing, antibodies may be of the IgG class and contain one or more amino acid substitutions E233, L234, G236, D265, D270, N297, E318, K320, K322, A327, A330, P331, and / or P329 (numbering according to the EU System). The resulting effectorless antibody shows very little binding to complement or Fc receptors (i.e., complement Clq binding), indicating low CDC potential.

[0244] Without being bound by any particular theory, it is believed that the anti-FcRn antibodies compete with and inhibit the binding of IgG to human FcRn. Epitope mapping by hydrogendeuterium exchange of the antibodies provided herein indicates that the antibodies bind to an epitope on FcRn located in and / or adjacent to the Fc-FcRn interaction interface, which suggests that the antibodies block IgG binding to FcRn by direct inhibition. Furthermore, the epitope-mapped binding site is distant from the albumin-binding site of FcRn. Accordingly, serum albumin-binding should not be inhibited and serum albumin levels should not be reduced more than about 35%, 30% or 25% below baseline (e.g., normal levels of serum albumin).
[0245] In some embodiments, the anti-FcRn antibody is nipocalimab, RVT-1401 (HL161), rozanolixizumab (UCB7665), ALXN1830, ABY-039, or efgartigimod. RVT-1401 (also referred to as HL161BKN) is described in W02020097099, rozanolixizumab is described in WO2014019727, and efgartigimod (ARGX-113) is described in WO2015100299, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. In some embodiments, the anti-FcRn antibody is a biosimilar of any of anti-FcRn antibodies provided for herein. In some embodiments, the anti-FcRn antibody is nipocalimab. In some embodiments, the anti-FcRn antibody is RVT-1401 (HL161). In some embodiments, the anti-FcRn antibody is rozanolixizumab (UCB7665). In some embodiments, the anti-FcRn antibody is ALXN1830. In some embodiments, the anti-FcRn antibody is ABY-039. In some embodiments, the anti-FcRn antibody is efgartigimod. In preferred embodiments, the anti- FcRn antibody is nipocalimab.
[0246] In some embodiments, the Fc domain of the antibody is not fucosylated. In some embodiments of all the methods described herein, the Fc domain of the antibody is not glycosylated.
[0247] In some embodiments, the anti-FcRn antibody further comprises an additional lysine residue at the C-terminus of SEQ ID NO: 2. In some embodiments, the anti-FcRn antibody comprises a heavy chain of SEQ ID NO: 2 with an additional lysine residue attached at the end of the C- terminus.
[0248] FcRn inhibition
[0249] FcRn is a type I transmembrane protein that functions as an IgG- and serum albuminbinding, intracellular vesicular trafficking protein. FcRn is expressed in endothelial cells, luminal epithelial cells, hepatocytes, podocytes, granulocytes, monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and NK cells, but not on B or T cells. FcRn maintains the half-life of IgG by binding and trafficking constitutively internalized IgG back to the cell surface. Binding of both Fc and serum albumin by FcRn occurs in the early endosome at pH 6.0, followed by sorting of the FcRn into vesicles, which traffic the FcRn-bound IgG or albumin back to the cell surface where FcRn rapidly releases the IgG or albumin at pH 7.4. This trafficking cycle maintains the half-life of IgG and albumin by recycling both into the circulation and preventing trafficking to the lysosomes for degradation. FcRn also captures internalized IgG Fc in epithelial cells and transports them bidirectionally to the opposing apical or basolateral membranes. This function allows IgG to traffic to the lumen of organs such as the gastrointestinal tract or the transport of IgG or IgG-antigen complexes from the lumen to the vasculature or lymphoid tissues in the stromal layers.
[0250] In order to study the contribution of FcRn to IgG homeostasis, mice have been engineered so that parts of the light and heavy chains of FcRn have been “knocked out” so that these proteins are not expressed (Junghans et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 93:5512, 1996, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety). In these mice, the serum half-life and concentrations of IgG were dramatically reduced, suggesting an FcRn-dependent mechanism of IgG homeostasis. Studies in rodent models, such as the one discussed above, suggest that blockage of FcRn can increase IgG catabolism, including that of pathogenic autoantibodies, thereby inhibiting disease (e.g., an autoimmune disease) development. FcRn may also contribute to antigen presentation through trafficking of immune complexes to antigen degradation and MHC loading compartments.
[0251] The present disclosure provides isolated anti-FcRn antibodies that bind to human FcRn with high affinity. The anti-FcRn antibodies compete with and effectively inhibit the binding of other anti-FcRn antibodies (e.g., IgG, IgG autoantibodies) to FcRn, thereby increasing the catabolism and decreasing the half-life of other anti-FcRn antibodies (e.g., IgG, IgG autoantibodies). The anti-FcRn antibodies may be used in a method of treating or reducing immune complex-based activation of an immune response in a subject, such as an immune response caused by autoantibodies in an autoimmune disease. Placental transfer of maternal IgG antibodies to the fetus is an important FcRn-dependent mechanism that provides protection to the neonate while his / her humoral response is inefficient. During fetal life, FcRn in the syncytiotrophoblast layers of the placenta is responsible for the transfer of maternal IgG antibodies to the fetus. Pathogenic maternal antibodies (e.g., pathogenic maternal IgG antibodies) may also cross the placenta by binding to FcRn and cause alloimmune disorders and / or autoimmune disorders in the fetus and neonate. In some embodiments, pathogenic antibodies in the pregnant subject cause a fetal and neonatal alloimmune and / or autoimmune disorder in a fetus in the pregnant subject. The anti-FcRn antibodies described herein may compete with and inhibit the binding of maternal pathogenic antibodies (e.g., maternal pathogenic IgG antibodies) to FcRn, thereby increasing the catabolism and decreasing the half-life of these pathogenic antibodies.
[0252] The present disclosure provides isolated anti-FcRn antibodies that bind to human FcRn. The anti-FcRn antibodies may compete with and inhibit the binding of other anti-FcRn antibodies (e.g., IgG, IgG autoantibodies) to FcRn, thereby increasing the catabolism and decreasing the half-life of other anti-FcRn antibodies (e.g., IgG, IgG autoantibodies). The anti-FcRn antibodies may be used in a method of treating or reducing immune complex-based activation of an immune response in a subject, such as an immune response caused by autoantibodies in an autoimmune disease. Reducing an immune response may be described as reducing an immune response relative to a subject who does not receive treatment (e.g., a control subject). The anti-FcRn antibodies may also be used in methods of decreasing pathogenic antibody transport (e.g., pathogenic maternal IgG antibody transport) across the placenta of a pregnant subject, increasing pathogenic antibody catabolism in a pregnant subject, and treating an antibody-mediated enhancement of viral disease in a fetus or a neonate by administering to a pregnant subject an isolated antibody that binds to human FcRn. Decreasing pathogenic antibody transport across the placenta of a pregnant subject, may be described as decreasing pathogenic antibody transport relative to a subject who does not receive treatment (e.g., a control subject). In another aspect, the present disclosure features a method of treating an antibody-mediated enhancement of viral disease in a fetus or a neonate, the method comprising, consisting of, or consisting essentially of administering an antibody described herein to a pregnant subject, wherein the antibody comprises, consists of, or consists essentially of: a light chain and a heavy chain, wherein the light chain comprises, consists of, or consists essentially of the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1; and the heavy chain comprises, consists of, or consists essentially of the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2. In another aspect, the present disclosure features a method of treating an antibody-mediated enhancement of viral disease in a fetus or a neonate, the method comprising, consisting of, or consisting essentially of administering an antibody to a pregnant subject, wherein the antibody comprises, consists of, or consists essentially of: a light chain and a heavy chain, wherein the light chain comprises, consists of, or consists essentially of a sequence having at least 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100% identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 ; and the heavy chain comprises, consists of, or consists essentially of a sequence having at least 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100% identity to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2.
[0253] Vectors, host cells, and antibody production
[0254] The anti-FcRn antibodies can be produced from a host cell. A host cell refers to a vehicle that includes the necessary cellular components, e.g., organelles, needed to express the polypeptides and constructs described herein from their corresponding nucleic acids. The nucleic acids may be included in nucleic acid vectors that can be introduced into the host cell by conventional techniques known in the art (e.g., transformation, transfection, electroporation, calcium phosphate precipitation, direct microinjection, infection, etc.). The choice of nucleic acid vectors depends in part on the host cells to be used. Generally, host cells are of either prokaryotic (e.g., bacterial) or eukaryotic (e.g., mammalian) origin.
[0255] Nucleic acid vector construction and host cells
[0256] A nucleic acid sequence encoding the amino acid sequence of an anti-FcRn antibody may be prepared by a variety of methods known in the art. These methods include, but are not limited to, oligonucleotide -mediated (or site-directed) mutagenesis and PCR mutagenesis. A nucleic acid molecule encoding an anti-FcRn antibody may be obtained using standard techniques, e.g., gene synthesis. Alternatively, a nucleic acid molecule encoding a wild-type anti-FcRn antibody may be mutated to contain specific amino acid substitutions using standard techniques in the art, e.g., QuikChange™ mutagenesis. Nucleic acid molecules can be synthesized using a nucleotide synthesizer or PCR techniques.
[0257] Nucleic acid sequences encoding anti-FcRn antibodies may be inserted into a vector capable of replicating and expressing the nucleic acid molecules in prokaryotic or eukaryotic host cells. Many vectors are available in the art and can be used for the purpose of the disclosure. Each vector may contain various components that may be adjusted and optimized for compatibility with the particular host cell. For example, the vector components may include, but are not limited to, an origin of replication, a selection marker gene, a promoter, a ribosome binding site, a signal sequence, the nucleic acid sequence encoding protein of interest, and a transcription termination sequence. In some embodiments, mammalian cells are used as host cells for the disclosure. Examples of mammalian cell types include, but are not limited to, human embryonic kidney (HEK) (e.g., HEK293, HEK 293F), Chinese hamster ovary (CHO), HeLa, COS, PC3, Vero, MC3T3, NSO, Sp2 / 0, VERY, BHK, MDCK, W138, BT483, Hs578T, HTB2, BT20, T47D, NSO (a murine myeloma cell line that does not endogenously produce any immunoglobulin chains), CRL7O3O, and HsS78Bst cells. In other embodiments, E. coli cells are used as host cells for the disclosure. Examples of E. coli strains include, but are not limited to, E. coli 294 (ATCC® 31,446), E. coli X 1776 (ATCC® 31,537, E. coli BL21 (DE3) (ATCC® BAA- 1025), and E. coli RV308 (ATCC® 31,608). Different host cells have characteristic and specific mechanisms for the posttranslational processing and modification of protein products. Appropriate cell lines or host systems may be chosen to ensure the correct modification and processing of the anti-FcRn antibody expressed. The above-described expression vectors may be introduced into appropriate host cells using conventional techniques in the art, e.g., transformation, transfection, electroporation, calcium phosphate precipitation, and direct microinjection. Once the vectors are introduced into host cells for protein production, host cells are cultured in conventional nutrient media modified as appropriate for inducing promoters, selecting transformants, or amplifying the genes encoding the desired sequences. Methods for expression of therapeutic proteins are known in the art, see, for example, Paulina Baibas, Argelia Lorence (eds.) Recombinant Gene Expression: Reviews and Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology), Humana Press; 2nd ed. 2004 (July 20, 2004) and Vladimir Voynov and Justin A. Caravella (eds.) Therapeutic Proteins: Methods and Protocols (Methods in Molecular Biology) Humana Press; 2nd ed. 2012 (June 28, 2012).
[0258] Protein production, recovery, and purification
[0259] Host cells used to produce the anti-FcRn antibodies may be grown in media known in the art and suitable for culturing of the selected host cells. Examples of suitable media for mammalian host cells include Minimal Essential Medium (MEM), Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM), Expi293™ Expression Medium, DMEM with supplemented fetal bovine serum (FBS), and RPMI- 1640. Examples of suitable media for bacterial host cells include Luria broth (LB) plus necessary supplements, such as a selection agent, e.g., ampicillin. Host cells are cultured at suitable temperatures, such as from about 20 °C to about 39 °C, e.g., from 25 °C to about 37 °C, about 37 °C, and CO2 levels, such as 5 to 10% (about 8%). The pH of the medium is generally from about 6.8 to 7.4, e.g., 7.0, depending mainly on the host organism. If an inducible promoter is used in the expression vector of the disclosure, protein expression is induced under conditions suitable for the activation of the promoter. Protein recovery typically involves disrupting the host cell, generally by such means as osmotic shock, sonication, or lysis. Once the cells are disrupted, cell debris may be removed by centrifugation or filtration. The proteins may be further purified. An anti-FcRn antibody may be purified by any method known in the art of protein purification, for example, by protein A affinity, other chromatography (e.g., ion exchange, affinity, and size-exclusion column chromatography), centrifugation, differential solubility, or by any other standard technique for the purification of proteins. In some instances, an anti-FcRn antibody can be conjugated to marker sequences, such as a peptide to facilitate purification. An example of a marker amino acid sequence is a hexa-histidine peptide (His-tag), which binds to nickel-functionalized agarose affinity column with micromolar affinity. Other peptide tags useful for purification include, but are not limited to, the hemagglutinin “HA” tag, which corresponds to an epitope derived from the influenza hemagglutinin protein. In some embodiments, the purified anti-FcRn antibody comprises a heavy chain comprising a C- terminal lysine. In some embodiments, the purified anti-FcRn antibody comprises a heavy chain that does not comprise a C-terminal lysine. In some embodiments, the purified anti-FcRn antibody comprises a population of purified anti-FcRn antibodies, wherein the population of anti-FcRn antibodies comprises a population of heavy chains that comprise a C-terminal lysine, and a population of heavy chains that do not comprise a C-terminal lysine.
