Abstract
Description
Bispecific antibody and cytokine fusion protein and its application Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of molecular immunology in biomedicine, and specifically to a fusion protein and its application. Background Art
[0002] Bifunctional antibodies, also known as bispecific antibodies (BsAbs), are specific drugs that simultaneously target two different antigens and can be produced through immunosorting and purification. BsAbs can be designed to simultaneously target both tumor cells and effector cells, activating effector cells to kill tumor cells. The role of the immune system, particularly T cell-mediated cytotoxicity, in tumor control is well established, with growing evidence demonstrating that T cells play a central role in controlling tumor growth and survival in cancer patients. Over the past few decades, treatments for various tumor types have aimed to reshape and improve T cell function and activity, conferring stronger and longer-lasting anti-tumor properties. Bispecific T-cell engagers (BiTEs) are among these bispecific antibodies composed of a T cell-binding domain (such as CD3) and a tumor-binding domain (primarily a tumor cell surface-associated antigen, or TAA). These bispecific antibodies establish a physical connection between T cells and tumor cells, promoting tumor killing by cytotoxic T cells. In 2014, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first BiTE, Blinatumomab (an anti-CD3 and anti-CD19 bispecific antibody), for the treatment of relapsed / refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). This demonstrated that killing endogenous T cells in tumors is achievable without the need for in vitro immune cell editing, which is one aspect of BiTE's advantage over cell therapy.
[0003] Although Blinatumomab has been successfully used in B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), the effect of BiTE in solid tumors has been mediocre, encountering a dilemma similar to that of cell therapy. On the one hand, this may be due to the limited penetration of BiTE into tumor tissues, and on the other hand, there may be many immunosuppressive factors in the tumor microenvironment that limit the restoration of T cell function in the tumor by BiTE. There are currently reports of adding co-stimulatory factors such as anti-CD28 to BiTE to enhance the function of BiTE. Cytokines, as the third signal in T cell activation, play a vital role in improving the tumor microenvironment. However, the function of cytokines on BiTE is unknown. Based on this, we explored the function of cytokines in BiTE therapy. Summary of the Invention

The label can only be detected or can be quantified. The reaction that is only detected generally includes a reaction that can only confirm its presence, and the reaction that can be quantified generally includes a reaction with a quantifiable value (e.g., that can be reported digitally) such as intensity, polarization, and / or other properties. In luminescent or fluorescent assays, the detectable reaction can be directly using a luminophore or fluorophore associated with a component of the assay that actually involves binding, or indirectly using a luminophore or fluorophore linked to another (eg, a reporter molecule or indicator) component.
[0170] "Single-chain variable fragment" or "scFv" refers to a fusion protein of the variable regions of the heavy chain (VH) and light chain (VL) of an immunoglobulin. In certain aspects, these regions are connected by a short linker peptide of 10 to about 25 amino acids. The linker can be rich in glycine for flexibility and also contain serine or threonine for solubility, and can connect the N-terminus of the VH to the C-terminus of the VL, and vice versa. The protein retains the properties of the original immunoglobulin, except that the constant regions have been removed and a linker has been introduced. ScFv molecules are known in the art, such as those described in U.S. Patent No. 5,892,019.
[0171] As used herein, the term "antibody fragment" or "antigen-binding fragment" is a portion of an antibody, such as F(ab')2, F(ab)2, Fab', Fab, Fv, scFv, and the like.
[0172] Those skilled in the art understand that the expression "cleavable linker" means that some amino acid sequences can be recognized by some enzymes in vivo or in vitro, and then disconnected in the middle, so that the sequences connecting the two ends can be separated, for example, selected from MMP enzymes, uPA enzymes, serine hydrolases, etc.
[0173] As used herein, the term "host cell" refers to a cell that can be used to introduce a vector, including but not limited to prokaryotic cells such as Escherichia coli or Bacillus subtilis, fungal cells such as yeast cells or Aspergillus, insect cells such as S2 Drosophila cells or Sf9, or animal cells such as fibroblasts, CHO cells, COS cells, NSO cells, HeLa cells, GS cells, BHK cells, HEK 293 cells or human cells.
[0174] As used herein, the term "specific binding" refers to a non-random binding reaction between two molecules, such as an antibody and its antigen. In certain embodiments, an antibody that specifically binds to an antigen (or has specificity for an antigen) means that the antibody binds to the antigen with a specificity of less than about 10 -5 M, for example, less than about 10 -6 M, 10 -7 M, 10 -8 M, 10 -9 M or 10 -10 Affinity of M or less (K D ) binds to the antigen.
[0175] As used herein, the term "K D " refers to the dissociation equilibrium constant of a specific antibody-antigen interaction, which is used to describe the binding affinity between the antibody and the antigen. The smaller the equilibrium dissociation constant, the tighter the antibody-antigen binding and the higher the affinity between the antibody and the antigen. Generally, antibodies bind with a dissociation equilibrium constant of less than about 10 -5 M, for example, less than about 10 -6 M, 10 -7 M, 10 -8 M, 10 -9 M or 10 -10 M or less dissociation equilibrium constant (K D ) binds to an antigen (e.g., PD-1 protein). K can be determined using methods known to those skilled in the art. D , for example, using the Fortebio molecular interaction instrument.
[0176] In the present invention, the structural unit A is a bispecific antibody. In some embodiments, the bispecific antibody exists in the form of a bispecific antibody prodrug, wherein the anti-CD3 antibody is connected to a cytokine, a cytokine prodrug or a tumor cell targeting peptide via a cleavable linker, and the activity of the anti-CD3 antibody is restored by cleaving the cytokine, cytokine prodrug or the tumor cell targeting peptide.

[0211] Example 1. Construction, expression and purification of fusion protein
[0212] 1. Construction of BiTE:
[0213] To design a highly effective and low-toxic bispecific antibody fusion protein for tumors, a T cell-bridging bispecific T-cell engager (BiTE) was used as the basis (Figure 1A). The activity of the CD3 antibody (anti-CD3) was masked using an antibody that binds to a tumor surface-specific antigen (anti-TAA) or a tumor cell-targeting peptide. The anti-TAA (or tumor cell-targeting peptide) and anti-CD3 sequences were linked together using different intermediate linkers selected from the group consisting of:
[0214] i. non-cleavable linkers (e.g. GS of different lengths (SEQ ID NO: 1-3, 24, 28, 30, 32), FIG. 1B ),
[0215] ii. a linker formed by connecting a cleavable linker and a pH-sensitive linker in series (e.g., a polypeptide substrate cleavable by an MMP and an HA linker, SEQ ID NO: 4-5, FIG. 1C ),
[0216] iii. a cleavable linker (e.g., a polypeptide substrate cleavable by an MMP (SEQ ID NO: 6-9, FIG. 1D ),
[0217] iv. pH-sensitive linkers formed in series (e.g., multiple HA linkers (SEQ ID NO: 10-12, FIG. 1E ), or
[0218] v. inserting a cleavable linker into the middle position of the pH-sensitive linker (e.g., a polypeptide substrate sequence that can be cleaved by MMP and an HA linker are placed alternately (SEQ ID NO: 13-14, FIG. 1F ),
[0219] vi. At one end of the Fc (SEQ ID NO: 19-20), the anti-TAA and anti-CD3 sequences were linked together in a homologous (Homo) format using a cleavable linker, as shown in FIG1G .
[0220] vii. In the absence of Fc (SEQ ID NOs: 19-20), structural units 1 and 3 are linked together via a cleavable linker (e.g., a polypeptide substrate cleavable by an MMP (SEQ ID NOs: 6-9), as shown in FIG1H ).
[0221] Figure 2 shows the BiTE structure, wherein Figure 2A shows a general BiTE structure, in which there is a CD3-binding domain and a TAA-binding domain; Figure 2B shows that based on the structure of Figure 2A, the CD3-binding domain is connected to an anti-TAA (or tumor cell targeting peptide) through a non-cleavable linker; Figure 2C shows that based on the structure of Figure 2A, the CD3-binding domain is connected to an anti-TAA (or tumor cell targeting peptide) through a cleavable linker and a pH-sensitive linker; Figure 2D shows that based on the structure of Figure 2A, the CD3-binding domain is connected to an anti-TAA (or tumor cell targeting peptide) through a cleavable linker. 2E shows that, based on the structure of FIG2A , the CD3-binding domain is connected to the anti-TAA (or tumor cell targeting peptide) through a pH-sensitive linker; FIG2F shows that, based on the structure of FIG2A , the CD3-binding domain is connected to the anti-TAA (or tumor cell targeting peptide) by an alternating placement of a cleavable linker and a pH-sensitive linker; FIG2G shows that, based on the structure of FIG2D , there is no Fc, and the CD3-binding domain is connected to the anti-TAA (or tumor cell targeting peptide) through a cleavable linker and a pH-sensitive linker.
[0222] Figure 3 shows that two different tumor antigens are bound in BiTE, and the one used to shield the anti-CD3 activity is a tumor cell targeting peptide (e.g., NGR, EphA2, EphA4), and the other non-shielding function is anti-TAA. Figure 3A shows that on the basic BiTE structure, the CD3-binding domain is connected to the structural unit 3 through a non-cleavable linker; Figure 3B shows that on the basic BiTE structure, the CD3-binding domain is connected to the structural unit 3 in series through a cleavable linker and a pH-sensitive linker; Figure 3C shows that on the basic BiTE structure, the CD3-binding domain is connected to the structural unit 3 through a cleavable linker; Figure 3D shows that on the basic BiTE structure, the CD3-binding domain is connected to the structural unit 3 through a pH-sensitive linker; Figure 3E shows that on the basic BiTE structure, the CD3-binding domain is connected to the structural unit 3 through a cleavable linker and a pH-sensitive linker in an alternating manner; Figure 3F shows that, based on the structure of Figure 3A, there is no Fc, and the CD3-binding domain is connected to the structural unit 3 through a cleavable linker and a pH-sensitive linker.
[0223] Figure 4 shows that the same tumor antigen is bound in BiTEs, and tumor targeting peptides and anti-TAA are connected in series to shield anti-CD3 activity. Figure 4A shows that based on Figure 2C, anti-TAA is connected to tumor cell targeting peptide; Figure 4B shows that based on Figure 2D, anti-TAA is connected to tumor cell targeting peptide; Figure 4C shows that based on Figure 2E, anti-TAA is connected to tumor cell targeting peptide; Figure 4D shows that based on Figure 2F, anti-TAA is connected to tumor cell targeting peptide; Figure 4E shows that based on Figure 2G, anti-TAA is connected to tumor cell targeting peptide.
[0224] The sequences used in the examples are as follows:
[0225] The sequence of the anti-CD3 antibody was selected from the UCHT1 (SEQ ID NO: 15) or OKT3 clone (SEQ ID NO: 16) that can activate CD3 signaling.
[0226] The commercialized Atezolizumab sequence (SEQ ID NO: 17) was used as the anti-PDL1 antibody.
[0227] The anti-CLDN18.2 sequence is the sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 18.
[0228] The human IgG1 sequences lacking ADCC function and having “Knob” and “Hole” mutations are shown in SEQ ID NO: 19 and SEQ ID NO: 20.
[0229] Each antibody was linked via different linkers and constructed into the expression vector pEE6.4 plasmid (purchased from LifeScience Market), using a signal peptide (SEQ ID NO: 21, SEQ ID NO: 47 can also be used). Host cells containing the vector were constructed by transient transfection of 293F cells, cultured, and the supernatant collected. Finally, the protein was purified by affinity chromatography using a Protein A / G column and stored in aliquots at -80°C.
[0230] For the expression of heterodimeric proteins, two expression vector plasmids with the same molar ratio need to be transferred. Monomers expressed in cells can also spontaneously form heterodimers.
[0231] Specifically, expression plasmids of various fusion proteins were genetically synthesized on the PEE6.4 vector, and then the expression supernatants of various proteins were obtained by transient transfection into 293F cells. Finally, various proteins were purified by Protein A affinity chromatography column.

When used, the cells were resuspended and the concentration was adjusted to 5×10 6 / ml.
[0266] (2) Protein sample preparation: Each protein sample was diluted 10-fold in a 10-fold gradient, with the highest concentration set at 400 nmol / L. Label the tubes and arrange them in the following order: 1:10, 1:100, 1:100, 1:10000, 1:100000. Add 450 μl of FACS buffer to each tube, transfer 50 μl of the highest concentration protein sample to the 1:10 dilution tube, and mix thoroughly using a pipette. Continue the serial dilution by transferring 50 μl from the 1:10 tube to the 1:100 tube, and then to the 1:100000 tube.
[0267] (3) Incubation of cells and samples: Add 100 μl of the prepared cell suspension to each well of a round-bottom 96-well plate, i.e., 5 × 10 5 After centrifugation at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, discard the supernatant, resuspend the cells with the prepared protein sample, make duplicate wells, and incubate at 4°C in the dark for 30 minutes.
[0268] (4) Commercial fluorescent antibody (Biolegend) conjugated to labeled samples: Add 150 μl of FACS buffer to a 96-well plate, mix thoroughly, and centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes. Discard the supernatant and repeat twice. Add 0.5 μl of commercial anti-human Fc-APC / PE per well (Biolegend, 0.5 μl antibody added to 50 μl FACS, mix thoroughly). Incubate at 4°C in the dark for 30 minutes.
[0269] (5) Flow cytometry: Add 150 μl of FACS buffer to each well, mix thoroughly, and centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes. Discard the supernatant and repeat twice. Resuspend the cells in 150-200 μl of FACS buffer and transfer to the flow cytometer.
[0270] The results in Figure 6 show that CLDN×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3(UCHT1) with the structure shown in Figure 1D has the highest binding ability to the MC38-CLDN cell line, followed by PDL1×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3(UCHT1) with the structure shown in Figure 2D), while PDL1×CD3(UCHT1) with the structure shown in Figure 1A has no binding to this cell line at all.
[0271] 2.2 MMP14 in vitro enzyme cleavage assay
[0272] The protein samples were cleaved in vitro using the enzyme MMP14 to verify the cleavage effect.
[0273] First, recombinant human MMP14 (R&D, Sciences) at a concentration of 80 μg / ml was incubated with 1.72 μg / ml rhFurin (Roche) in activation buffer (50 mM Tris, 1 mM CaCl2, 0.5% (w / v) Brij 35, pH 9.0, filtered through a 0.22 μm filter) for 2 hours. Protein samples and activated MMP14 were added to the assay buffer at a molar ratio of 5:1 and incubated for 24 hours. The protein concentration in the enzyme digestion system was 100 μg / ml. The activation buffer consisted of 50 mM Tris, 3 mM CaCl2, 1 μM ZnCl2, pH 8.5, and filtered through a 0.22 μm filter. Proteins were then analyzed by SDS-PAGE, and relative gel band intensities were analyzed to quantify the amount of cleavage in each protein / MMP14 mixture. The SDS-PAGE electrophoresis pattern is shown in Figure 7. The results in FIG7 show that PDL1×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3(UCHT1) with the structure shown in FIG2D can be completely cleaved by MMP enzyme.
[0274] 2.3 Experimental study on the recovery of MMP14 activity after in vitro enzymatic cleavage
[0275] Following the method described in the in vitro MMP14 enzyme cleavage assay in 2.2, we performed an in vitro enzyme cleavage experiment on PDL1×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3(UCHT1) with the structure shown in Figure 2D, and set up a control with the same incubation conditions but without MMP14 enzyme. The SDS-PAGE electrophoresis identification pattern is shown in Figure 7, and the results of the binding ability recovery test after enzyme cleavage are shown in Figure 8.
[0276] CD3 + Cell sorting: using MojoSort TM Human CD3T Cell Isolation Kit (Biolegend) was used for sorting. According to the instructions, the materials in the kit were provided, and MojoSort TM Buffer was used to adjust the cell concentration to 1 x 10 8 / mL. Add 100 μL of biotin-antibody cocktail. Mix well and incubate on ice for 15 minutes. Resuspend the beads by vortexing at maximum speed, touching down 5 times. Add 10 μL of streptavidin nanobeads. Mix well and incubate on ice for 15 minutes. Add 2.5 mL of MojoSort TM buffer and place the tube in the magnet for 5 min.
[0277] Pour off and collect the liquid, and adjust the cell concentration to 3 × 10 6 / ml.
[0278] (1) Protein sample preparation: Each protein sample was set to a maximum concentration of 200 nmol / L according to the equimolar mass (the protein sample after enzyme digestion was still calculated according to the original molar mass), and then diluted 10-fold in a gradient and mixed thoroughly with a pipette.
[0279] (2) Incubation of cells and protein samples: Add 100 μl of the prepared cell suspension to each well of a round-bottom 96-well plate, i.e., 3×10 5 After centrifugation at 1600 rpm for 5 minutes, discard the supernatant, resuspend the cells with the prepared protein sample, make duplicate wells, and incubate at 4°C in the dark for 30 minutes.
[0280] (3) Commercial fluorescent antibody-labeled protein sample: Add 150 μl of FACS buffer to a 96-well plate, mix thoroughly, and centrifuge at 1600 rpm for 5 minutes. Discard the supernatant and repeat twice. Add 0.5 μl of commercial anti-human Fc-APC / PE per well (add 0.5 μl of antibody to 50 μl of FACS buffer and mix thoroughly). Incubate at 4°C in the dark for 30 minutes.
[0281] (4) Flow cytometry: Add 150 μl of FACS buffer to each well, mix thoroughly, and centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes. Discard the supernatant and repeat twice. Resuspend the cells in 150-200 μl of FACS buffer and transfer to the flow cytometer.
[0282] (5) To detect T cell activation in vitro, purified human PBMCs were resuspended in culture medium (RPMI1640 with 10% FBS and supplemented with 1% P / S and 1% glutamine) (Thermo Fisher Scientific) to adjust the concentration to 5×10 6 100 μl of the solution was added to each well of a round-bottom 96-well plate.
[0283] (6) Prepare protein samples of different concentrations and whether they were cleaved or not using RPMI1640 as described in 2.2-2. Add the prepared protein samples to each well in turn and repeat the wells. Incubate in a tissue culture incubator for 48 hours.
[0284] (7) After the incubation, the cells were centrifuged at 1600 rpm for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was collected for measuring cytokine release or discarded. The cells were stained with fluorescently labeled antibodies for T cell markers (CD3, CD4, CD8, etc.) and activation markers (CD69, CD25, etc.), detected by flow cytometry, and then analyzed using FlowJo software (FlowJo v10) and plotted as shown in Figure 8. The results in Figure 8 show that after in vitro enzyme cleavage, the biological activity of the fusion protein CD3 antibody in the structure of PDL1×CLDN-MMP (double)-CD3 (UCHT1) as shown in Figure 2D can be well restored, and can be restored to the effect of PDL1×CD3 (UCHT1) as shown in Figure 1A (Figure 8). The above results show that the activity of CD3 in the antibody can be well blocked by anti-CLDN18.2, and its activity on T cells can be effectively restored after MMP cleavage.
[0285] Example 3. New BiTEs exhibit better anti-tumor effects than traditional BiTEs
[0286] To determine whether the TAA×TAA / targeting peptide-CD3 designed and produced by us can effectively fight tumors when administered systemically and to compare its therapeutic effect with that of traditional bispecific antibodies, we inoculated MC38-CLDN (MC38 cells overexpressing Claudin 18.2) into hCD3 humanized mice (hCD3EDG) and treated the mice with a lower dose by systemic administration.
[0287] hCD3EDG mice (n=5 / group) were subcutaneously inoculated with 1×10 6 MC38-CLDN cells. On day 11, the tumor grew to 80-120 mm 3 The mice were randomly divided into groups and administered with PBS at 200 pmol / mouse on days 11 and 14. The mice were treated with PDL1×CD3(UCHT1) (non-targeted) as shown in FIG2A , PDL1×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3(UCHT1) (targetable to the tumor microenvironment, non-targeted after MMP cleavage) as shown in FIG2D , CLDN×CD3(UCHT1) as shown in FIG1A , and CLDN×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3(UCHT1) as shown in FIG1D . The tumor volumes of the tumor-bearing mice were recorded.
[0288] The experimental results are shown in Figure 9: The CLDN×CD3 group was able to inhibit tumor growth, but only 40% of the mice experienced tumor volume reduction and rapid rebound. The CLDN×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3 group observed significant anti-tumor activity, with tumor volume reduction in 80% of the mice and complete tumor regression in 10% of the mice, but rebound also occurred later. Under low-dose treatment, the anti-tumor activity of the CLDN×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3 group was significantly superior to the CLDN×CD3 group, and no significant weight loss was observed in any treatment group. This result indicates that CLDN×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3 can effectively eliminate tumors and has a better tumor clearance effect than traditional bispecific antibodies.
[0289] Example 4. New BiTEs exhibit lower peripheral toxicity than traditional BiTEs
[0290] Because human CD3 KI mice are not very sensitive to peripheral toxicity, we used hPBMC humanized (hu-PBMC) NSG mice as an in vivo mouse model. These mice were generated by injecting purified human PBMCs from healthy donors. They have the fastest engraftment rate using adult peripheral blood mononuclear cells and enable short-term studies of robust effector and memory T cell function.
[0291] We selected A549 cells overexpressing human CLDN18.2 protein (P56856) by lentiviral infection as the tumor model for this study and inoculated 1*10 6 A549-CLDN cells were grown, which was counted as day 0. When the tumor grew to day 22, PBMCs were transplanted by tail vein injection. Two days later, the mice were randomly divided into groups and intraperitoneally injected with 100pnol of PDL1 x CD3 (PDL1×CD3(OKT3)[anti-PDL1 single-chain(VL-VH)and CD3 single-chain(VL-VH)]), PDL1x CLDN-CD3 (PDL1×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3(OKT3)[anti-PDL1 single-chain(VL-VH)and CD3 single-chain(VL-VH)]). After 24 hours, venous blood was collected from the tail tip of the mice and allowed to stand until the serum on it precipitated. The blood was centrifuged at 10,000 rpm for 10 minutes, and the clear serum was transferred to a new EP tube. The blood was then purified using BD Fermentation Immunofluorescence ... TMThe Cytometric Bead Array (CBA) Mouse Inflammation Kit (BD Biosciences) was used to measure serum inflammatory cytokine levels, and the data were analyzed using a flow cytometry system and BD CBA analysis software. The results, as shown in Figure 10, show that compared to the PBS control group, the PDL1×CD3(OKT3) construct shown in Figure 2A showed high cytokine expression in peripheral serum, while the PDL1×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3(OKT3) construct shown in Figure 2D showed a significant decrease in cytokine expression in peripheral serum.
[0292] Example 5. The activity of the new BiTE can be restored after cleavage
[0293] OKT3 (SEQ ID NO: 16) and UCHT1 (SEQ ID NO: 15) are widely used monoclonal antibodies against CD3. In the structure of bispecific antibodies, we also used OKT3 as the core. According to the method of Example 1, we gene synthesized and produced PDL1×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3 (PDL1×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3(OKT3)[anti-PDL1 single-chain(VL-VH)and CD3 single-chain(VL-VH)]) and PDL1×NGR-HA-MMP(double)-CD3 (PDL1×NGR-HA-MMP(double)-CD3(OKT3)[anti-PDL1 single-chain(VL-VH)and CD3 single-chain(VL-VH)]) proteins, respectively.
[0294] First, the cleavage activity of the two proteins was tested in vitro by repeating the MMP enzymatic cleavage method 2.2 of Example 2. The results are shown in Figure 11. SDS PAGE results showed that both antibody forms could be completely cleaved, Figure 11A (PDL1×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3) and Figure 11B (PDL1×NGR-HA-MMP(double)-CD3).
[0295] By repeating the in vitro PBMC activation experiment 2.3 after enzymatic cleavage of Example 2, it can be seen that both the double antibody obtained by using the antibody against the tumor surface specific antigen (Figure 12A, PDL1×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3) and the targeting peptide (Figure 12B, PDL1×NGR-HA-MMP(double)-CD3) can effectively reduce the activity of CD3, and the activity of CD3 is partially restored after enzymatic cleavage.
[0296] Example 6: Preparation of bispecific antibody fusion cytokine
[0297] Taking the bispecific antibody fused to the IL-2 mutant cytokine (SEQ ID NO: 110) as an example, the construction and expression purification process are described in detail. The same method is used for the expression and purification of other proteins in the present invention. First, the fusion protein is constructed on the pEE6.4 expression vector, and then the host cell containing the vector is constructed by transient transfection of 293F cells. For the expression of heterodimeric proteins, two expression vector plasmids with the same molar ratio need to be transferred. The monomers expressed in the cells can also spontaneously form heterodimers. The host cells are cultured and the cell supernatant is collected. Finally, the protein is purified by affinity chromatography on a ProteinA / G column. The specific steps are as follows:
[0298] Construction of expression vector
[0299] (1) Anti-CLDN18.2 single chain (VL-VH)
[0300] (2) Anti-CD3 single chain (VL-VH, (UCHT1)) and mutant IL2 (F42A, R38L, i.e., mut IL2)
[0301] (3) Anti-PDL1 x Anti-CD3 (OKT3)
[0302] The fusion protein was expressed by transient transfection of 293F cells:
[0303] Anti-CLDN18.2 x anti-CLDN18.2-MMP (double) -anti-CD3 (UCHT1) -MutIL2 shown in Figure 14A, i.e., CLDN × CLDN-MMP (double) -CD3 (UCHT1) [anti-CLDN single-chain (VL-VH) and CD3 single-chain (VL-VH) -mutIL2], CLDN-Fc (Knob) shown in SEQ ID NO: 22, CLDN-MMP (double) -CD3-Fc (Hole) shown in SEQ ID NO: 25, and mutIL2 shown in SEQ ID NO: 110.
[0304] Example 7: Study on the biological activity of fusion protein in vitro
[0305] Detection of the ability of fusion protein to bind to antigen.
[0306] As described in Example 2.1, the bispecific antibodies used were PDL1×CD3(OKT3) with a structure as shown in Figure 2A , CLDN×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3(UCHT1) with a structure as shown in Figure 1D , and PDL1×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3(UCHT1)-mutIL2 with a structure as shown in Figure 14A . Flow cytometry was used to detect the ability of the anti-CLDN18.2 antibody in the fusion protein to bind to its antigen, and the analysis results are shown in Figure 16 .
[0307] The results showed that anti-CLDN18.2 x anti-CLDN18.2-MMP (double) - anti-CD3 (UCHT1) -mutIL2 had a slightly higher binding ability to the CLDN18.2 antigen on the surface of MC38 cells than anti-CLDN18.2 x anti-CD3 (UCHT1), while anti-PDL1 x anti-CD3 (OKT3) had no binding to this cell line at all ( Figure 16 ).
[0308] Example 8: Anti-tumor effect of fusion protein
[0309] The structure of anti-CLDN18.2 is shown in FIG14A .
[0310] Taking x anti-CLDN18.2-MMP (double) -anti-CD3 (UCHT1) -mutIL2 and anti-CLDN18.2 x anti-CLDN18.2-MMP (double) -anti-CD3 (UCHT1) -IL15Ra as examples (wherein the sequence of CLDN18.2 is shown in SEQ ID NO: 22, the sequence of mutIL2 is shown in SEQ ID NO: 111, and the sequence of IL15Ra is shown in SEQ ID NO: 134), it was determined whether they could effectively fight tumors when administered systemically and whether they were superior to the therapeutic effect of a single bispecific antibody. MC38-CLDN (MC38 cells overexpressing Claudin 18.2) was inoculated into hCD3 humanized mice (hCD3EDG) and the mice were treated with a lower dose by systemic administration. The experimental results are shown in Figure 17:
[0311] hCD3EDG mice (n=5 / group) were subcutaneously inoculated with 1×10 6 MC38-CLDN cells. On day 13, the tumor grew to 220 mm 3The mice were randomly divided into groups and administered at an equimolar mass of 200 pmol / mouse on days 13 and 16. The calculated protein was dissolved in 200 μl of PBS and then intraperitoneally injected. The PBS control group, CLDN×CLDN MMP(double)-CD3(UCHT1), CLDN×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3(UCHT1)-mut IL2, and CLDN×CLDN-MMP(double)-CD3(UCHT1)-IL15Ra were treated. Tumor length (a), width (b), and height (c) were measured using a vernier caliper. Tumor volume (a×b×c / 2) was measured twice weekly, and tumor growth curves were recorded. The tumor growth curves showed that the bispecific antibody fused to the cytokine had a superior anti-tumor effect ( Figure 17 ).
[0312] Example 9: Anti-tumor effect of IL2 fusion protein
[0313] Using the structures of CLDN x CDLN-CD3, CLDN-wtIL2 x CDLN-CD3, CLDN-mutIL2 x CDLN-CD3, and CLDN-mutIL2 x CD3, as shown in Figure 18A , we determined whether systemic administration of these fusion proteins effectively combats tumors and whether they surpass the therapeutic efficacy of a bispecific antibody alone. The anti-tumor efficacy of these novel fusion proteins was tested as described in Example 8. The results demonstrated that bispecific antibodies carrying either wild-type or mutant IL2 exhibited enhanced anti-tumor efficacy ( Figure 19 ).
[0314] As described in Example 4, we inoculated CFPAC1 (purchased from ATCC) tumor cells into NCG systemic immunodeficient mice and waited for the tumor to grow to 100 mm. 3 3e6 human PBMCs were then transplanted into the mice via the tail vein. Five days later, 200 pmol of fusion protein drugs (CLDN x CD3 and CLDN xRa-IL2-CD3 (see Figure 18G for structure)) were injected intraperitoneally into the mice, and tumor growth was measured ( Figure 20 ). The results showed that the bispecific antibody had better anti-tumor effects after carrying wild-type IL2 and IL2 receptor Ra ( Figure 20 ).
[0315] The sequences used in Example 9 are as follows:
[0316] Example 10: Anti-tumor effect of IL15 fusion protein
[0317] Using the structures of CLDN-hIL15 x CDLN-MMP-CD3, shown in Figure 18A, and CLDN-hIL15Ra x CDLN-MMP-CD3-hIL15, shown in Figure 18D, as examples, we determined whether these fusion proteins, when administered systemically, were effective against tumors and superior to the therapeutic efficacy of the bispecific antibody alone. The anti-tumor effects of these novel fusion proteins were tested as described in Example 8. The results demonstrated that bispecific antibody prodrugs carrying wild-type IL15 or IL15 and IL15Ra exhibited enhanced anti-tumor efficacy ( Figure 21 ). Furthermore, the anti-tumor efficacy of a bispecific antibody directly fused to IL15 (CLDN-hIL15 x CD3), shown in Figure 18H, was also enhanced ( Figure 22 ).
[0318] The sequences used in Example 10 are as follows:
[0319] Example 11: Anti-tumor effects and peripheral toxicity of IL21 fusion protein
[0320] IL21 was directly fused to the bispecific antibody using CLDN-IL21xCD3, as shown in FIG18H . The anti-tumor effect of the new fusion protein was tested as described in Example 8. We found that although the anti-tumor effect was not improved after fusion with IL21 ( FIG23A ), the levels of peripheral cytokines IFN and TNF were significantly reduced ( FIG23B ), demonstrating that it can reduce the peripheral toxicity caused by BiTE.
[0321] The sequences used in Example 11 are as follows:
[0322] Example 12: Anti-tumor effects and peripheral toxicity of IL4 fusion protein
[0323] CLDN x IL4-CD3, with the structure shown in Figure 13A , was fused to the N-terminus of CD3 via a cleavable linker based on a bispecific antibody. The anti-tumor effect of the new fusion protein was tested as described in Example 8. We found that although the anti-tumor effect was not improved after fusion with IL4 ( Figure 24A ), the levels of peripheral cytokines IFN and TNF were significantly reduced ( Figure 24B ), demonstrating that it can reduce the peripheral toxicity caused by BiTE.
[0324] The sequences used in Example 12 are as follows:
[0325] Example 13: Anti-tumor effect and peripheral toxicity of IL10 fusion protein
[0326] As shown in Figures 13A and 13C, two IL10 molecules were fused in series to the N-terminus of an anti-CD3 antibody sequence, connected by either a cleavable linker (MMP) or a non-cleavable linker (i.e., G4S or (G4S)3) of varying lengths. The different fusion proteins were incubated with PBMCs in vitro for half an hour at varying concentration gradients. The cells were then stained with an anti-hFc-APC secondary antibody (using the same procedure as in Example 2.1). The mean fluorescence intensity of each group was then measured by upflow cytometry. The results, shown in Figure 25, demonstrate that the fusion of two IL10 molecules significantly impacts CD3 affinity.
[0327] We then tested the anti-tumor effect of the IL10 fusion protein as described in Example 8. The results showed that the anti-tumor effect of the fusion bispecific antibody was significantly improved after fusion with IL10 ( Figure 26A ), and the secretion of peripheral cytokines was also reduced ( Figure 26B ), thereby reducing toxicity and increasing efficacy.
