ANTI-IL-18BP ANTIBODIES, COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING ANTI-IL-18BP ANTIBODIES AND METHODS OF USING ANTI-IL-18BP ANTIBODIES 1. RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application claims benefit of and priority to U.S. Provisional Application No.63 / 575,237, filed April 5, 2024, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. 2. SEQUENCE LISTING
[0002] The instant application contains a Sequence Listing which has been submitted electronically in XML format compliant with WIPO Standard ST.26 and is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Said XML copy, created on February 28, 2025, is named 1107368.00140 PRO.xml and is 302,846 bytes in size. 3. FIELD
[0003] Provided herein are antibodies with binding specificity for IL-18BP and compositions comprising the antibodies, including pharmaceutical compositions, and kits. Also provided are methods of using anti-IL-18BP antibodies for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. 4. BACKGROUND
[0004] Interleukin-18 (IL-18) is a member of the IL-1 family that was identified based on its ability to induce natural killer (NK) and T cell production of interferon (IFN)-g and promote Th1 immunity. IL- 18 acts synergistically with IL-12 to optimize production of IFN-g and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-a by innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) and T cells. Endogenous IL-18 contributes to optimal resistance to diverse intracellular pathogens that include Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Salmonella tymphimurium, Cryptosporidium parvum, and Leishmania major.
[0005] However, sustained IL-18 activity is associated with autoinflammatory pathologies that include cryopyrinopathies, hereditary periodic fever syndromes, familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, and macrophage activation syndromes, as well as viral and bacterial sepsis. These examples illustrate the need for endogenous mechanisms to optimize host protective activity of IL-18 while limiting aberrant pathological effect of IL-18 signaling.
[0006] Interleukin 18 (IL-18) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that can stimulate T cells, NK cells, and myeloid cells. IL-18 has been proposed as an immunotherapeutic agent for the treatment of cancer, given its ability to stimulate anti-tumor immune cells. However, the clinical efficacy of IL-18 has been limited.
[0007] Two distinct checkpoints exist to limit IL-18 production and activity. First, IL-18 is produced as a pro-cytokine without biological activity and requires caspase-mediated processing. Second, the ability of IL-18 to induce the production of IFNγ results in the synthesis of a dedicated IL-18 bindingprotein (IL-18BP), which blocks the ability of IL-18 to signal.
[0008] IL-18BP is a high-affinity IL-18 decoy receptor. IL-18 is negatively regulated by IL-18BP, a secreted antagonist that binds IL-18 with extremely high affinity (KD < 1 nM). IL 18-BP binds IL-18, prevents the binding of IL-18 to its receptor and thus functions as an inhibitor of IL-18.
[0009] IL18-BP inhibits IL-18 induced T and NK cell activation and proliferation and pro- inflammatory cytokine production, resulting in reduced T and NK cell activity and T-helper type 1 immune responses. IL-18BP is frequently upregulated in diverse human and mouse tumors and limits the anti-tumor activity of IL-18 in mice.
[0010] What is needed is a therapeutic antibody that binds specifically to a human IL-18BP that could limit the effect of IL-18BP and thus promote the anti-tumor activity of IL-18. 5. SUMMARY

[0033] Provided herein are antibodies that selectively bind to IL-18BP and compositions comprising the antibodies. Also provided are methods of using the antibodies, such as therapeutic methods. 7.1 Definitions
[0034] Unless otherwise defined, all terms of art, notations, and other scientific terminology used herein are intended to have the meanings commonly understood by those of skill in the art to which this invention pertains. In some cases, terms with commonly understood meanings are defined herein for clarity and / or for ready reference, and the inclusion of such definitions herein should not necessarily be construed to represent a difference over what is generally understood in the art. The techniques and procedures described or referenced herein are generally well understood and commonly employed using conventional methodologies by those skilled in the art, such as, for example, the widely utilized molecular cloning methodologies described in Sambrook et al., Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual 2nd ed. (1989) Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, NY. As appropriate, procedures involving the use of commercially available kits and reagents are generally carried out in accordance with manufacturer defined protocols and / or parameters unless otherwise noted.
[0035] As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” include the plural referents unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
[0036] The term “about” indicates and encompasses an indicated value and a range above and below that value. In certain embodiments, the term “about” indicates the designated value ± 10%, ± 5%, or ± 1%. In certain embodiments, the term “about” indicates the designated value ± one standard deviation of that value.
[0037] The term “combinations thereof” includes every possible combination of elements to which the term refers.
[0038] The term “immunoglobulin” refers to a class of structurally related proteins generally comprising two pairs of polypeptide chains: one pair of light (L) chains and one pair of heavy (H) chains. In an “intact immunoglobulin,” all four of these chains are interconnected by disulfide bonds. The structure of immunoglobulins has been well characterized. See, e.g., Paul, Fundamental Immunology 7th ed., Ch. 5 (2013) Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia, PA. Briefly, each heavy chain typically comprises a heavy chain variable region (VH) and a heavy chain constant region (CH). The heavy chain constant region typically comprises three domains, CH1, CH2, and CH3. Each light chain typically comprises a light chain variable region (VL) and a light chain constant region. The light chain constant region typically comprises one domain, abbreviated CL.
[0039] The term “IL-18,” interleukin-18,” or “interferon-gamma inducing factor” is a protein which in humans is encoded by the IL-18 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a proinflammatory cytokine.
[0040] The term “antibody” describes a type of immunoglobulin molecule and is used herein in its broadest sense. An antibody specifically includes intact antibodies (e.g., intact immunoglobulins), and antibody fragments and antigen binding proteins. Antibodies comprise at least one antigen-binding domain. One example of an antigen-binding domain is an antigen binding domain formed by a VH-VLdimer. An “IL-18BP antibody,” “anti-IL-18BP antibody,” “IL-18BP Ab,” “IL-18BP-specific antibody,” or “anti-IL-18BP Ab” is an antibody, as described herein, which binds specifically to the antigen IL-18BP.
[0041] The VHand VLregions may be further subdivided into regions of hypervariability (“hypervariable regions (HVRs);” also called “complementarity determining regions” (CDRs)) interspersed with regions that are more conserved. The more conserved regions are called framework regions (FRs). Each VHand VLgenerally comprises three CDRs and four FRs, arranged in the following order (from N-terminus to C-terminus): FR1 - CDR1 - FR2 - CDR2 - FR3 - CDR3 - FR4. The CDRs are involved in antigen binding, and confer antigen specificity and binding affinity to the antibody. See Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest 5th ed. (1991) Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, incorporated by reference in its entirety.
[0042] The light chain from any vertebrate species can be assigned to one of two types, called kappa and lambda, based on the sequence of the constant domain.
[0043] The heavy chain from any vertebrate species can be assigned to one of five different classes (or isotypes): IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM. These classes are also designated α, δ, ε, γ, and µ, respectively. The IgG and IgA classes are further divided into subclasses on the basis of differences in sequence and function. Humans express the following subclasses: IgG1, IgD, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and IgA2.
[0044] The amino acid sequence boundaries of a CDR can be determined by one of skill in the art using any of a number of known numbering schemes, including those described by Kabat et al., supra (“Kabat” numbering scheme); Al-Lazikani et al., 1997, J. Mol. Biol., 273:927-948 (“Chothia”numbering scheme); MacCallum et al., 1996, J. Mol. Biol.262:732-745 (“Contact” numbering scheme); Lefranc et al., Dev. Comp. Immunol., 2003, 27:55-77 (“IMGT” numbering scheme); and Honegge and Plückthun, J. Mol. Biol., 2001, 309:657-70 (“AHo” numbering scheme), each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
[0045] Table 1 provides the positions of CDR-L1, CDR-L2, CDR-L3, CDR-H1, CDR-H2, and CDR- H3 as identified by the Kabat and Chothia schemes. For CDR-H1, residue numbering is provided using both the Kabat and Chothia numbering schemes.
[0046] Unless otherwise specified, the numbering scheme used for identification of a particular CDR herein is the Kabat / Chothia numbering scheme. Where the residues encompassed by these two numbering schemes diverge, the numbering scheme is specified as either Kabat or Chothia. Table 1. Residues in CDRs according to Kabat and Chothia numbering schemes. CDR Kabat Chothia L1 L24-L34 L24-L34 L2 L50-L56 L50-L56 L3 L89-L97 L89-L97 H31-H35B H1 (Kabat Numbering) H26-H32 or H34* H1 (Chothia Numbering) H31-H35 H26-H32 H2 H50-H65 H52-H56 H3 H95-H102 H95-H102 * The C-terminus of CDR-H1, when numbered using the Kabat numbering convention, varies between H32 and H34, depending on the length of the CDR.
[0047] The “EU numbering scheme” is generally used when referring to a residue in an antibody heavy chain constant region (e.g., as reported in Kabat et al., supra). Unless stated otherwise, the EU numbering scheme is used to refer to residues in antibody heavy chain constant regions described herein.
[0048] An “antibody fragment” comprises a portion of an intact antibody, such as the antigen binding or variable region of an intact antibody. Antibody fragments include, for example, Fv fragments, Fab fragments, F(ab′)2fragments, Fab′ fragments, scFv (sFv) fragments, and scFv-Fc fragments.
[0049] “Fv” fragments comprise a non-covalently-linked dimer of one heavy chain variable domain and one light chain variable domain.
[0050] “Fab” fragments comprise, in addition to the heavy and light chain variable domains, the constant domain of the light chain and the first constant domain (CH1) of the heavy chain. A fabfragment can be composed of one constant and one variable domain of each of the heavy and light chains. Fab fragments may be generated, for example, by papain digestion of a full-length antibody.
[0051] “F(ab′)2” fragments contain two Fab′ fragments joined, near the hinge region, by disulfide bonds. F(ab′)2fragments may be generated, for example, by pepsin digestion of an intact antibody. The F(ab′) fragments can be dissociated, for example, by treatment with ß-mercaptoethanol. A Fab’ fragment is a Fab fragment that has been modified with disulfide bonds.
[0052] “Single-chain Fv” or “sFv” or “scFv” antibody fragments comprise a VHdomain and a VLdomain in a single polypeptide chain. The VHand VLare generally linked by a peptide linker. See Plückthun A. (1994). Antibodies from Escherichia coli. In Rosenberg M. & Moore G.P. (Eds.), The Pharmacology of Monoclonal Antibodies vol. 113 (pp. 269-315). Springer-Verlag, New York, incorporated by reference in its entirety.
[0053] “scFv-Fc” fragments comprise an scFv attached to an Fc domain. For example, an Fc domain may be attached to the C-terminal of the scFv. The Fc domain may follow the VHor VL, depending on the orientation of the variable domains in the scFv (i.e., VH-VLor VL-VH). Any suitable Fc domain known in the art or described herein may be used.
[0054] A “single domain antibody” or “nanobody” is an antibody fragment consisting of a single monomeric variable antibody domain, often a peptide of about 110 amino acids, comprising one variable domain, often of a heavy chain. The single domain antibody often also comprises a common IgG.
[0055] The term “monoclonal antibody” refers to an antibody from a population of substantially homogeneous antibodies. A population of substantially homogeneous antibodies comprises antibodies that are substantially similar and that bind the same epitope(s), except for variants that may normally arise during production of the monoclonal antibody. Such variants are generally present in only minor amounts. A monoclonal antibody is typically obtained by a process that includes the selection of a single antibody from a plurality of antibodies. For example, the selection process can be the selection of a unique clone from a plurality of clones, such as a pool of hybridoma clones, phage clones, yeast clones, bacterial clones, or other recombinant DNA clones. The selected antibody can be further altered, for example, to improve affinity for the target (“affinity maturation”), to humanize the antibody, to improve its production in cell culture, and / or to reduce its immunogenicity in a subject.
[0056] The term “chimeric antibody” refers to an antibody in which a portion of the heavy and / or light chain is derived from a particular source or species, while the remainder of the heavy and / or light chain is derived from a different source or species.
[0057] “Humanized” forms of non-human antibodies are chimeric antibodies that contain minimal sequence derived from the non-human antibody. A humanized antibody is generally a humanimmunoglobulin (recipient antibody) in which residues from one or more CDRs are replaced by residues from one or more CDRs of a non-human antibody (donor antibody). The donor antibody can be any suitable non-human antibody, such as a mouse, rat, rabbit, chicken, or non-human primate antibody having a desired specificity, affinity, or biological effect. In some instances, selected framework region residues of the recipient antibody are replaced by the corresponding framework region residues from the donor antibody. Humanized antibodies may also comprise residues that are not found in either the recipient antibody or the donor antibody. Such modifications may be made to further refine antibody function. For further details, see Jones et al., Nature, 1986, 321:522-525; Riechmann et al., Nature, 1988, 332:323-329; and Presta, Curr. Op. Struct. Biol., 1992, 2:593-596, each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
[0058] A “human antibody” is one which possesses an amino acid sequence corresponding to that of an antibody produced by a human or a human cell, or derived from a non-human source that utilizes a human antibody repertoire or human antibody-encoding sequences (e.g., obtained from human sources or designed de novo). Human antibodies specifically exclude humanized antibodies.
[0059] An “isolated antibody” is one that has been separated and / or recovered from a component of its natural environment. Components of the natural environment may include enzymes, hormones, and other proteinaceous or nonproteinaceous materials. In some embodiments, an isolated antibody is purified to a degree sufficient to obtain at least 15 residues of N-terminal or internal amino acid sequence, for example by use of a spinning cup sequenator. In some embodiments, an isolated antibody is purified to homogeneity by gel electrophoresis (e.g., SDS-PAGE) under reducing or nonreducing conditions, with detection by Coomassie blue or silver stain. An isolated antibody includes an antibody in situ within recombinant cells, since at least one component of the antibody's natural environment is not present. In some embodiments, an isolated antibody is prepared by at least one purification step.
[0060] In some embodiments, an isolated antibody is purified to at least 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 99% by weight. In some embodiments, an isolated antibody is provided as a solution comprising at least 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, 99% to 100% by weight of an antibody, the remainder of the weight comprising the weight of other solutes dissolved in the solvent.
[0061] “Affinity” refers to the strength of the sum total of non-covalent interactions between a single binding site of a molecule (e.g., an antibody) and its binding partner (e.g., an antigen). Unless indicated otherwise, as used herein, “binding affinity” refers to intrinsic binding affinity, which reflects a 1:1 interaction between members of a binding pair (e.g., antibody and antigen). The affinity of a molecule X for its partner Y can generally be represented by the dissociation constant (KD). Affinity can be measured by common methods known in the art, including those described herein. Affinity can be determined, for example, using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology, such as a Biacore®instrument, or using bio-layer interferometry technology, such as an Octet®instrument.
[0062] With regard to the binding of an antibody to a target molecule, the terms “specific binding,” “specifically binds to,” “specific for,” “selectively binds,” and “selective for” a particular antigen (e.g., a polypeptide target) or an epitope on a particular antigen mean binding that is measurably different from a non-specific or non-selective interaction. Specific binding can be measured, for example, by determining binding of a molecule compared to binding of a control molecule. Specific binding can also be determined by competition with a control molecule that is similar to the target, such as an excess of non-labeled target. In that case, specific binding is indicated if the binding of the labeled target to a probe is competitively inhibited by the excess non-labeled target.
[0063] The term “kd” (sec−1), as used herein, refers to the dissociation rate constant of a particular antibody-antigen interaction. This value is also referred to as the koffvalue.
[0064] The term “ka” , as used herein, refers to the association rate constant of a particular antibody-antigen interaction. This value is also referred to as the konvalue.
[0065] The term “KD” (M), as used herein, refers to the dissociation equilibrium constant of a particular antibody-antigen interaction. KD= kd / ka.
[0066] The term “KA” (M−1), as used herein, refers to the association equilibrium constant of a particular antibody- KA= ka / kd.
[0067] An “affinity matured” antibody is one with one or more alterations in one or more CDRs or FRs that result in an improvement in the affinity of the antibody for its antigen, compared to a parent antibody which does not possess the alteration(s). In one embodiment, an affinity matured antibody has nanomolar or picomolar affinity for the target antigen. Affinity matured antibodies may be produced using a variety of methods known in the art. For example, Marks et al. (Bio / Technology, 1992, 10:779-783, incorporated by reference in its entirety) describes affinity maturation by VHand VLdomain shuffling. Random mutagenesis of CDR and / or framework residues is described by, for example, Barbas et al. (Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1994, 91:3809-3813); Schier et al., Gene, 1995, 169:147-155; Yelton et al., J. Immunol., 1995, 155:1994-2004; Jackson et al., J. Immunol., 1995, 154:3310-33199; and Hawkins et al, J. Mol. Biol., 1992, 226:889-896, each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
[0068] When used herein in the context of two or more antibodies, the term “competes with” or “cross- competes with” indicates that the two or more antibodies compete for binding to an antigen (e.g., IL- 18BP). In one exemplary assay, IL-18BP is coated on a plate and allowed to bind a first antibody, after which a second, labeled antibody is added. If the presence of the first antibody reduces binding of the second antibody, then the antibodies compete. The term “competes with” also includes combinations of antibodies where one antibody reduces binding of another antibody, but where no competition is observed when the antibodies are added in the reverse order. However, in some embodiments, the first and second antibodies inhibit binding of each other, regardless of the order in which they are added. Insome embodiments, one antibody reduces binding of another antibody to its antigen by at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, or at least 90%.
[0069] The term “epitope” means a portion of an antigen capable of specific binding to an antibody. Epitopes frequently consist of surface-accessible amino acid residues and / or sugar side chains and may have specific three-dimensional structural characteristics, as well as specific charge characteristics. Conformational and non-conformational epitopes are distinguished in that the binding to the former but not the latter is lost in the presence of denaturing solvents. An epitope may comprise amino acid residues that are directly involved in the binding, and other amino acid residues, which are not directly involved in the binding. The epitope to which an antibody binds can be determined using known techniques for epitope determination such as, for example, testing for antibody binding to IL-18BP variants with different point-mutations.
[0070] Percent “identity” between a polypeptide sequence and a reference sequence, is defined as the percentage of amino acid residues in the polypeptide sequence that are identical to the amino acid residues in the reference sequence, after aligning the sequences and introducing gaps, if necessary, to achieve the maximum percent sequence identity. Alignment for purposes of determining percent amino acid sequence 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, BLAST-2, ALIGN, MEGALIGN (DNASTAR), CLUSTALW, or CLUSTAL OMEGA software. Those skilled in the art can determine appropriate parameters for aligning sequences, including any algorithms needed to achieve maximal alignment over the full length of the sequences being compared.
[0071] A “conservative substitution” or a “conservative amino acid substitution,” refers to the substitution of one or more amino acids with one or more chemically or functionally similar amino acids. Conservative substitution tables providing similar amino acids are well known in the art. Polypeptide sequences having such substitutions are known as “conservatively modified variants.” By way of example, the following groups of amino acids are considered conservative substitutions for one another. Acidic Residues D and EAliphatic Residues I, L, V, and M Cycloalkenyl-associated Residues F, H, W, and Y Hydrophobic Residues A, C, F, G, H, I, L, M, V, W, and Y Negatively Charged Residues D and E Polar Residues C, D, E, H, K, N, Q, R, S, and T Positively Charged Residues H, K, and R Small Residues A, C, D, G, N, P, S, T, and V Very Small Residues A, G, and S Residues Involved in Turn Formation A, C, D, E, G, H, K, N, Q, R, S, P, and T Flexible Residues Q, T, K, S, G, P, D, E, and R Group 1 A, S, and T Group 2 D and E Group 3 N and Q Group 4 R and K Group 5 I, L, and M Group 6 F, Y, and W Group A A and Gand Molecular Properties 2nd ed. (1993) W. H. Freeman & Co., New York, NY. An antibody generated by making one or more conservative substitutions of amino acid residues in a parent antibody is referred to as a “conservatively modified variant.”
[0072] The term “amino acid” refers to the twenty common naturally occurring amino acids. Naturally occurring amino acids include alanine (Ala; A), arginine (Arg; R), asparagine (Asn; N), aspartic acid (Asp; D), cysteine (Cys; C); glutamic acid (Glu; E), glutamine (Gln; Q), Glycine (Gly; G); histidine (His; H), isoleucine (Ile; I), leucine (Leu; L), lysine (Lys; K), methionine (Met; M), phenylalanine (Phe;F), proline (Pro; P), serine (Ser; S), threonine (Thr; T), tryptophan (Trp; W), tyrosine (Tyr; Y), and valine (Val; V).
[0073] “Treating” or “treatment” of any disease or disorder refers, in certain embodiments, to ameliorating a disease or disorder that exists in a subject. In another embodiment, “treating” or “treatment” includes ameliorating at least one physical parameter, which may be indiscernible by the subject. In yet another embodiment, “treating” or “treatment” includes modulating the disease or disorder, either physically (e.g., stabilization of a discernible symptom) or physiologically (e.g., stabilization of a physical parameter) or both. In yet another embodiment, “treating” or “treatment” includes delaying or preventing the onset of the disease or disorder.
[0074] As used herein, the term “therapeutically effective amount” or “effective amount” refers to an amount of an antibody or composition that when administered to a subject is effective to treat a disease or disorder.
[0075] As used herein, the term “subject” means a mammalian subject. Exemplary subjects include, but are not limited to humans, monkeys, dogs, cats, mice, rats, cows, horses, camels, avians, goats and sheep. In certain embodiments, the subject is a human. In some embodiments, the subject has cancer, an autoimmune disease or condition, and / or an infection that can be treated with an antibody provided herein.

[0200] In some embodiments, the antibody binds to an epitope of IL-18BP. An epitope often consists of a number of contiguous amino acids such as, for example, without limitation, 5-6 amino acids. In some embodiments, the epitope comprises or consists of contiguous or non-contiguous amino acids. In some embodiments, the contiguous or non-contiguous amino acids are within a domain of IL-18BP.
[0201] In some embodiments, the antibody competes with any of the antibodies set forth herein. Competition could be, for example, without limitation, binding competition, inhibition competition, or any other form of competition. 7.5 Glycosylation Variants
[0202] In some embodiments, an antibody may be altered to increase, decrease, or eliminate the extent to which it is glycosylated. Glycosylation of polypeptides is typically either “N-linked” or “O-linked.”
[0203] “N-linked” glycosylation refers to the attachment of a carbohydrate moiety to the side chain of an asparagine residue. The tripeptide sequences asparagine-X-serine and asparagine-X-threonine, where X is any amino acid except proline, are the recognition sequences for enzymatic attachment of the carbohydrate moiety to the asparagine side chain. Thus, the presence of either of these tripeptide sequences in a polypeptide creates a potential glycosylation site.
[0204] “O-linked” glycosylation refers to the attachment of one of the sugars N-acetylgalactosamine, galactose, or xylose to a hydroxyamino acid, most commonly serine or threonine, although 5- hydroxyproline or 5-hydroxylysine may also be used.
[0205] Addition or deletion of N-linked glycosylation sites to the antibody may be accomplished by altering the amino acid sequence such that one or more of the above-described tripeptide sequences is created or removed. Addition or deletion of O-linked glycosylation sites may be accomplished by addition, deletion, or substitution of one or more serine or threonine residues in or to (as the case may be) the sequence of an antibody.
[0206] In certain embodiments, the antibody is glycosylated. In certain embodiments, the antibody is deglycosylated. Carbohydrates may be removed by standard techniques. In certain embodiments, the antibody is aglycosylated, for instance by expression in a system that does not glycosylate.7.6 Fc Variants
[0207] In some embodiments, amino acid modifications may be introduced into the Fc region of an antibody provided herein to generate an Fc region variant. In some embodiments, the Fc region variant possesses some, but not all, effector functions. Such antibodies may be useful, for example, in applications in which the half-life of the antibody in vivo is important yet certain effector functions are unnecessary or deleterious. Examples of effector functions include complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) and antibody-directed complement-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). Numerous substitutions or substitutions or deletions with altered effector function are known in the art.
[0208] In some embodiments, the Fc is modified. In some embodiments, a hinge of an IgG1 or IgG4 antibody is modified. Modification of a hinge region stabilizes an antibody and prevents formation of unwanted bispecific antibodies. In some embodiments, an IgG Fc is engineered to modulate antibody effector function (See Wang et al., Protein Cell, 2018, Jan; 9(1): 63–73), which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety, including any drawings).
[0209] Non-limiting examples of in vitro assays to assess ADCC activity of a molecule of interest are provided in U.S. Patent Nos.5,500,362 and 5,821,337; Hellstrom et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1986, 83:7059-7063; Hellstrom et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1985, 82:1499-1502; and Bruggemann et al., J. Exp. Med., 1987, 166:1351-1361. Useful effector cells for such assays include peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and Natural Killer (NK) cells. Alternatively, or additionally, ADCC activity of the molecule of interest may be assessed in vivo, using an animal model such as that disclosed in Clynes et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1998, 95:652-656.
[0210] C1q binding assays may also be carried out to confirm that the antibody is unable to bind C1q and hence lacks CDC activity. Examples of C1q binding assays include those described in WO 2006 / 029879 and WO 2005 / 100402.
[0211] Complement activation assays include those described, for example, in Gazzano-Santoro et al., J. Immunol. Methods, 1996, 202:163-171; Cragg et al., Blood, 2003, 101:1045-1052; and Cragg and Glennie, Blood, 2004, 103:2738-2743.
[0212] FcRn binding and in vivo clearance (half-life determination) can also be measured, for example, using the methods described in Petkova et al., Intl. Immunol., 2006, 18:1759-1769. 7.7 Preparation of Antibodies 7.7.1 Antigen Preparation
[0213] The IL-18BP antigen to be used for production of antibodies may be intact IL-18BP or a fragment of IL-18BP. The intact IL-18BP, or fragment of IL-18BP, may be in the form of an isolated protein or expressed by a cell. Other forms of IL-18BP useful for generating antibodies will be apparent to those skilled in the art.7.7.2 Monoclonal Antibodies
[0214] Monoclonal antibodies may also be obtained, for example, using phage or yeast-based libraries. See e.g., U.S. Patent Nos.8,258,082 and 8,691,730.
[0215] Antibodies may also be obtained, for example, using the hybridoma method first described by Kohler et al., Nature, 1975, 256:495-497, and / or by recombinant DNA methods (see e.g., U.S. Patent No.4,816,567). In the hybridoma method, a mouse or other appropriate host animal is immunized to elicit lymphocytes that produce or are capable of producing antibodies that will specifically bind to the protein used for immunization. Alternatively, lymphocytes may be immunized in vitro. Lymphocytes are then fused with myeloma cells using a suitable fusing agent, such as polyethylene glycol, to form a hybridoma cell. See Goding J.W., Monoclonal Antibodies: Principles and Practice 3rded. (1986) Academic Press, San Diego, CA.
[0216] The hybridoma cells are seeded and grown in a suitable culture medium that contains one or more substances that inhibit the growth or survival of the unfused, parental myeloma cells. For example, if the parental myeloma cells lack the enzyme hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT or HPRT), the culture medium for the hybridomas typically will include hypoxanthine, aminopterin, and thymidine (HAT medium), which substances prevent the growth of HGPRT-deficient cells.
[0217] Useful myeloma cells are those that fuse efficiently, support stable high-level production of antibody by the selected antibody-producing cells, and are sensitive media conditions, such as the presence or absence of HAT medium. Among these, preferred myeloma cell lines are murine myeloma lines, such as those derived from MOP-21 and MC-11 mouse tumors (available from the Salk Institute Cell Distribution Center, San Diego, CA), and SP-2 or X63-Ag8-653 cells (available from the American Type Culture Collection, Rockville, MD). Human myeloma and mouse-human heteromyeloma cell lines also have been described for the production of human monoclonal antibodies. See e.g., Kozbor, J. Immunol., 1984, 133:3001.
[0218] After the identification of hybridoma cells that produce antibodies of the desired specificity, affinity, and / or biological activity, selected clones may be subcloned by limiting dilution procedures and grown by standard methods. See Goding, supra. Suitable culture media for this purpose include, for example, D-MEM or RPMI-1640 medium. In addition, the hybridoma cells may be grown in vivo as ascites tumors in an animal.
[0219] DNA encoding the monoclonal antibodies may be readily isolated and sequenced using conventional procedures (e.g., by using oligonucleotide probes that are capable of binding specifically to genes encoding the heavy and light chains of the monoclonal antibodies). Thus, the hybridoma cells can serve as a useful source of DNA encoding antibodies with the desired properties. Once isolated, the DNA may be placed into expression vectors, which are then transfected into host cells such asbacteria (e.g., E. coli), yeast (e.g., Saccharomyces or Pichia sp.), COS cells, Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, or myeloma cells that do not otherwise produce antibody, to produce the monoclonal antibodies. 7.7.3 Humanized Antibodies
[0220] Humanized antibodies may be generated by replacing most, or all, of the structural portions of a monoclonal antibody with corresponding human antibody sequences. Consequently, a hybrid molecule is generated in which only the antigen-specific variable, or CDR, is composed of non-human sequence. Methods to obtain humanized antibodies include those described in, for example, Winter and Milstein, Nature, 1991, 349:293-299; Rader et al., Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1998, 95:8910- 8915; Steinberger et al., J. Biol. Chem., 2000, 275:36073-36078; Queen et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1989, 86:10029-10033; and U.S. Patent Nos.5,585,089, 5,693,761, 5,693,762, and 6,180,370. 7.7.4 Human Antibodies
[0221] Human antibodies can be generated by a variety of techniques known in the art, for example by using transgenic animals (e.g., humanized mice). See, e.g., Jakobovits et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1993, 90:2551; Jakobovits et al., Nature, 1993, 362:255-258; Bruggermann et al., Year in Immuno., 1993, 7:33; and U.S. Patent Nos.5,591,669, 5,589,369 and 5,545,807. Human antibodies can also be derived from phage-display libraries (see e.g., Hoogenboom et al., J. Mol. Biol., 1991, 227:381- 388; Marks et al., J. Mol. Biol., 1991, 222:581-597; and U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,565,332 and 5,573,905). Human antibodies may also be generated by in vitro activated B cells (see e.g., U.S. Patent. Nos. 5,567,610 and 5,229,275). Human antibodies may also be derived from yeast-based libraries (see e.g., U.S. Patent No.8,691,730). 7.7.5 Vectors, Host Cells, and Recombinant Methods
[0222] A second aspect provides isolated nucleic acids encoding anti-IL-18BP antibodies, vectors, and host cells comprising the nucleic acids and recombinant techniques for the production of the antibodies.
[0223] For recombinant production of the antibody, the nucleic acid encoding it may be isolated and inserted into a replicable vector for further cloning (i.e., amplification of the DNA) or expression. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid may be produced by homologous recombination, for example as described in U.S. Patent No.5,204,244.
[0224] Many different vectors are known in the art. The vector components generally include, but are not limited to, one or more of the following: a signal sequence, an origin of replication, one or more marker genes, an enhancer element, a promoter, and a transcription termination sequence, for example as described in U.S. Patent No.5,534,615.
[0225] Suitable host cells include any prokaryotic (e.g., bacterial), lower eukaryotic (e.g., yeast), or higher eukaryotic (e.g., mammalian) cells. Suitable prokaryotes include eubacteria, such as Gram-negative or Gram-positive organisms, for example, Enterobacteriaceae such as Escherichia (E. coli), Enterobacter, Erwinia, Klebsiella, Proteus, Salmonella (S. typhimurium), Serratia (S. marcescans), Shigella, Bacilli (B. subtilis and B. licheniformis), Pseudomonas (P. aeruginosa), and Streptomyces. One useful E. coli cloning host is E. coli 294, although other strains such as E. coli B, E. coli X1776, and E. coli W3110 are suitable.
[0226] In addition to prokaryotes, eukaryotic microbes such as filamentous fungi or yeast are also suitable cloning or expression hosts for anti-IL-18BP antibody-encoding vectors. Saccharomyces cerevisiae, or common baker's yeast, is a commonly used lower eukaryotic host microorganism. However, a number of other genera, species, and strains are available and useful, such as Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Kluyveromyces (K. lactis, K. fragilis, K. bulgaricus K. wickeramii, K. waltii, K. drosophilarum, K. thermotolerans, and K. marxianus), Yarrowia, Pichia pastoris, Candida (C. albicans), Trichoderma reesia, Neurospora crassa, Schwanniomyces (S. occidentalis), and filamentous fungi such as, for example Penicillium, Tolypocladium, and Aspergillus (A. nidulans and A. niger).
[0227] Useful mammalian host cells include COS-7 cells, HEK293 cells; baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells; Chinese hamster ovary (CHO); mouse sertoli cells; African green monkey kidney cells (VERO- 76), and the like.
[0228] The host cells used to produce the anti-IL-18BP antibody of this invention may be cultured in a variety of media. Commercially available media such as, for example, Ham's F10, Minimal Essential Medium (MEM), RPMI-1640, and Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) are suitable for culturing the host cells. In addition, any of the media described in Ham et al., Meth. Enz., 1979, 58:44; Barnes et al., Anal. Biochem., 1980, 102:255; and U.S. Patent Nos. 4,767,704, 4,657,866, 4,927,762, 4,560,655, and 5,122,469, or WO 90 / 03430 and WO 87 / 00195 may be used.
[0229] Any of these media may be supplemented as necessary with hormones and / or other growth factors (such as insulin, transferrin, or epidermal growth factor), salts (such as sodium chloride, calcium, magnesium, and phosphate), buffers (such as HEPES), nucleotides (such as adenosine and thymidine), antibiotics, trace elements (defined as inorganic compounds usually present at final concentrations in the micromolar range), and glucose or an equivalent energy source. Any other necessary supplements may also be included at appropriate concentrations that would be known to those skilled in the art.
[0230] The culture conditions, such as temperature, pH, and the like, are those previously used with the host cell selected for expression, and will be apparent to the ordinarily skilled artisan.
[0231] When using recombinant techniques, the antibody can be produced intracellularly, in the periplasmic space, or directly secreted into the medium. If the antibody is produced intracellularly, as a first step, the particulate debris, either host cells or lysed fragments, is removed, for example, by centrifugation or ultrafiltration. For example, Carter et al. (Bio / Technology, 1992, 10:163-167)describes a procedure for isolating antibodies which are secreted to the periplasmic space of E. coli. Briefly, cell paste is thawed in the presence of sodium acetate (pH 3.5), EDTA, and phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride (PMSF) over about 30 minutes. Cell debris can be removed by centrifugation.
[0232] In some embodiments, the antibody is produced in a cell-free system. In some embodiments, the cell-free system is an in vitro transcription and translation system as described in Yin et al., mAbs, 2012, 4:217-225, incorporated by reference in its entirety. In some embodiments, the cell-free system utilizes a cell-free extract from a eukaryotic cell or from a prokaryotic cell. In some embodiments, the prokaryotic cell is E. coli. Cell-free expression of the antibody may be useful, for example, where the antibody accumulates in a cell as an insoluble aggregate, or where yields from periplasmic expression are low.
[0233] Where the antibody is secreted into the medium, supernatants from such expression systems are generally first concentrated using a commercially available protein concentration filter, for example, an Amicon®or Millipore®Pellcon®ultrafiltration unit. A protease inhibitor such as PMSF may be included in any of the foregoing steps to inhibit proteolysis and antibiotics may be included to prevent the growth of adventitious contaminants.
[0234] The antibody composition prepared from the cells can be purified using, for example, hydroxylapatite chromatography, gel electrophoresis, dialysis, and affinity chromatography, with affinity chromatography being a particularly useful purification technique. The suitability of protein A as an affinity ligand depends on the species and isotype of any immunoglobulin Fc domain that is present in the antibody. Protein A can be used to purify antibodies that are based on human γ1, γ2, or γ4 heavy chains (Lindmark et al., J. Immunol. Meth., 1983, 62:1-13). Protein G is useful for all mouse isotypes and for human γ3 (Guss et al., EMBO J., 1986, 5:1567-1575).
[0235] The matrix to which the affinity ligand is attached is most often agarose, but other matrices are available. Mechanically stable matrices such as controlled pore glass or poly(styrenedivinyl)benzene allow for faster flow rates and shorter processing times than can be achieved with agarose. Where the antibody comprises a CH3domain, the BakerBond ABX®resin is useful for purification.
[0236] Other techniques for protein purification, such as fractionation on an ion-exchange column, ethanol precipitation, Reverse Phase HPLC, chromatography on silica, chromatography on heparin Sepharose®, chromatofocusing, SDS-PAGE, and ammonium sulfate precipitation are also available, and can be applied by one of skill in the art.
[0237] Following any preliminary purification step(s), the mixture comprising the antibody of interest and contaminants may be subjected to low pH hydrophobic interaction chromatography using an elution buffer at a pH between about 2.5 to about 4.5, generally performed at low salt concentrations (e.g., from about 0 to about 0.25 M salt).7.8 Therapeutic Applications
[0238] A third aspect provides a method of treating an individual having a disease or condition comprising administering any of the antibodies set forth herein to an individual in need thereof. For therapeutic applications, the antibodies of the invention are administered to a mammal, generally a human, in a pharmaceutically acceptable dosage form such as those known in the art and those discussed above. Alternatively, the antibodies of the invention may be administered to a human intravenously as a bolus or by continuous infusion over a period of time, by intramuscular, intraperitoneal, intra- cerebrospinal, subcutaneous, intra-articular, intrasynovial, intrathecal, intravesicle, or intratumoral routes. The antibodies also are suitably administered by peritumoral, intralesional, or perilesional routes, to exert local as well as systemic therapeutic effects. The intraperitoneal route may be particularly useful, for example, in the treatment of ovarian tumors.
[0239] In some embodiments, one or more antibodies is capable of binding to human IL-18BP (hIL- 18BP). In some embodiments, the one or more antibodies is an isolated antibody. In some embodiments, the one or more antibodies comprise, consist of, or consist essentially of a heavy chain variable region (VH) and a light chain variable region (VL), the VH and / or VL comprising 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 of: a VHCDR1 having the sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs: 1-4 or 6-14 or SEQ ID NOs: 18- 29; a VHCDR2 having the sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs: 31-43 or SEQ ID NOs: 47- 58; and a VHCDR3 having the sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs: 62-75; a VLCDR1 having the sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs: 79-100; a VLCDR2 having the sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs: 104-125, and a VLCDR3 having the sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs: 129-153.

[0248] Any suitable infection may be treated with the antibodies provided herein. Illustrative suitable infections include, for example, hepatitis A virus, hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus (HCV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and other viral infections.
[0249] In some embodiments, the subject is a human subject. Other potential subjects include, but arenot limited to humans, monkeys, dogs, cats, mice, rats, cows, horses, camels, avians, goats and sheep. In some embodiments, the subject is suspected to have cancer, an autoimmune disease or condition, and / or an acute infection and chronic infection.
[0250] In some embodiments, treatment achieves restoration of IL-18 responses. Interleukin-18 (IL- 18) is a member of the IL-1 family that was identified based on its ability to induce natural killer (NK) and T cell production of interferon (IFN)-g and promote Th1 immunity. IL-18 acts synergistically with IL-12 to optimize production of IFN-g and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-a by innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) and T cells. Endogenous IL-18 contributes to optimal resistance to diverse intracellular pathogens that include Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Salmonella tymphimurium, Cryptosporidium parvum, and Leishmania major.
[0251] Interleukin 18 (IL-18) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that can stimulate T cells, NK cells, and myeloid cells. IL-18 has been proposed as an immunotherapeutic agent for the treatment of cancer, given its ability to stimulate anti-tumor immune cells.
[0252] In some embodiments, treatment blocks and / or inhibits binding of IL-18BP to IL-18. IL-18 is negatively regulated by IL-18BP, a secreted antagonist that binds IL-18 with extremely high affinity (KD < 1 nM). IL 18-BP binds IL-18, prevents the binding of IL-18 to its receptor and thus functions as an inhibitor of IL-18. IL18-BP inhibits IL-18 induced T and NK cell activation and proliferation and pro-inflammatory cytokine production, resulting in reduced T and NK cell activity and T-helper type 1 immune responses. IL-18BP is frequently upregulated in diverse human and mouse tumours and limits the anti-tumor activity of IL-18 in mice.
[0253] In some embodiments, treatment reverses suppression of IFNγ. IFN-γ, or type II interferon, is a cytokine that is critical for innate and adaptive immunity. IFN-γ is an important activator of macrophages and inducer of major histocompatibility complex class II molecule expression. The importance of IFN-γ in the immune system stems in part from its ability to inhibit viral replication directly, and most importantly from its immunostimulatory and immunomodulatory effects. For example, IFN-γ is produced predominantly by natural killer cells (NK) and natural killer T cells (NKT) as part of the innate immune response and by CD4 Th1 and CD8 cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) effector T cells once antigen-specific immunity develops as part of the adaptive immune response.
[0254] The primary cells that secrete type II IFN are CD4+T helper 1 (Th1) cells, natural killer (NK) cells, and CD8+cytoxic T cells. It can also be secreted by antigen presenting cells such as dendritic cells, macrophages, and B cells to a lesser degree.
[0255] In some embodiments, treatment enhances tumor specific T-cell function. In some embodiments, treatments activates NK cells, macrophages, gamma delta T cells, and / or dendritic cells.
[0256] In some embodiments, treatment increases the frequency of tumor specific CD8 T cells. CD8T cells are the most powerful effectors in the anticancer immune response and constitute the backbone of cancer immunotherapy. CD8 T cells are major killers of pathogens and neoplastic cells, with CD4 T cells playing important roles in the maintenance of the CD8 response and prevention of exhaustion.
[0257] In some embodiments, treatment increase CD11c activated tumor specific CD8 T cells. CD11c is highly expressed in dendritic cells, some B lymphocytes, CD8+ T cell subsets, and natural killer cells. CD11c plays an important role in the proliferation and function of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells.
[0258] In some embodiments, treatment decrease tumor CD4 Tregs. CD4 Tregs are CD4+ cells that are key players in immune tolerance. They are often powerful suppressor cells, able to impact the function of numerous immune cells, including key effectors of inflammation, such as T cell.
[0259] In some embodiments, treatments inhibits poxvirus, chikungunya, and / or hepatitis C. In some embodiments, treatment activates local and / or tumor infiltrating T cells and NK cells to produce IFNγ and / or IL-22.
[0260] In some embodiments, treatment promotes barrier functions. In some embodiments, treatment promotes antigen presentation. In some embodiments, treatment enhances response to parasites and bacterial infection. In some embodiments, treatment promotes neutrophil activation and effector function.
[0261] In some embodiments, the method further comprises administering one or more additional compounds or more additional cell therapies. In some embodiments, the one or more additional compounds comprise or consist of one or more of IL-12, IL-2, IL-15, IL-1β, IFNα, IFNγ, IL-18, IL-21, IL-22, IL-3, IL-4, IL-13, IL-9, and / or IL-5.
[0262] In some embodiments, the one or more additional cell therapies comprise or consist of CAR- T. CARs are engineered synthetic receptors that function to redirect lymphocytes, most commonly T cells, to recognize and eliminate cells expressing a specific target antigen. CARs are modular synthetic receptors that consist of four main components: (1) an extracellular target antigen-binding domain, (2) a hinge region, (3) a transmembrane domain, and (4) one or more intracellular signaling domains. CAR binding to target antigens expressed on the cell surface is independent from the MHC receptor and that can result in vigorous T cell activation and powerful anti-tumor responses. In some embodiments, the one or more additional cell therapies comprise or consist of NK cell therapies.
[0263] In some embodiments, the one or more additional compounds comprises or consist of an effective amount of a PD-1 and / or an anti-PD-L1 antibody. Programmed death-1 (PD-1) is a cell surface receptor that functions as a T cell checkpoint and plays a central role in regulating T cell exhaustion. Binding of PD-1 to its ligand, programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), activates downstream signaling pathways and inhibits T cell activation. Abnormally high PD-L1 expression on tumor cells and antigen-presenting cells in the tumor microenvironment mediates tumor immune escape. Manyanti-PD-1 / PD-L1 antibodies have shown effectiveness in cancer immunotherapy.
[0264] In some embodiments, the one or more additional compounds comprises or consist of an effective amount of anti-CTLA4 and / or an LAG-3 antibody. Blocking CTLA4 improves the activity of anti-tumor T cells by increasing the activation and proliferation of T cells as well as an increase in memory cells, causing more T cells to bind tumor antigens. Likewise, an anti-LAG-3 antibody can affect T cell function and enhance antitumor immune function.

[0299] IL-18BP antibodies were discovered by using naïve scFv and Fab phage display libraries. Soluble panning was performed by using biotinylated recombinant human and mouse IL-18BP proteins captured by streptavidin-coated magnetic beads. Two panning strategies were performed in parallel to increase diversity and mitigate risks of discovering a cross-reactive antibody. In the first strategy, four rounds of selection were performed against human IL-18BP. In the second strategy, the phage output from round 1 was twice panned against murine IL-18BP followed by a fourth round against human IL- 18BP. Selection pressure was applied round-to-round by the addition of wash cycles and the reduction of the concentration of IL-18BP antigen. To limit the enrichment of non-specific phage clones, each round of panning included a deselection step against a panel of polyreactive reagents that were pooled and biotinylated as a mixture. The antigens in the polyreactive reagents pool were myoglobin, insulin, sclerostin, histone H3, human serum albumin, and single- and double-stranded DNA.
[0300] Periplasmic extract (PPE) from round 4 panning outputs were used for screening. PPEs were evaluated for binding to human and mouse IL-18BP by ELISA. Clones that showed 3-5× binding to human and mouse IL-18BP were selected and sequenced to identify unique clones which were later reformatted as IgGs. The sequences of these antibodies are provided in Table S. 9.1.1 Transfection and plasmids
[0301] Il-18BP were expressed and purified from Expi293 cells using transient transfection with ExpiFectamine (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Enhancers were added 20 h after transfection. Cells were incubated for 5 days at 37 °C and 8% CO2.
[0302] For IL-18BP IgGs, medium was collected by centrifugation at 4,000g for 20 min. IL-18BP IgGs were purified by Protein A affinity chromatography using MabSelect SuRe 5-ml column (Cytiva) and buffer exchanged into 1X PBS, pH 7.4 by dialysis. 9.2 Example 2: Biophysical Characterization of Anti-IL18-BP antibodies by biolayer interferometry (BLI)
[0303] Binding kinetics were measured using the Octet RED96 system (ForteBio) at 30° C in 1 × Kinetics Buffer (KB). 1 µg / ml of IL-18BP antibody or control was immobilized onto anti-human Fc (AHC) biosensor to a binding response of approximately 0.5 nm. After a short baseline step in 1× KB, the sensors were exposed to 1 to 2 µg / ml recombinant human, mouse, or cynomolgus IL-18BP for the association step. Dissociation of the complex was monitored upon exposure of the sensors to 1× KB for up to 10 min. Data was processed using ForteBio Octet software (v10) with negative control IgG subtraction, global fit, and 1:1 binding model to obtain association (kon) and dissociation (koff) rates. Equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) was calculated from the ratio of koffto kon.
[0304] FIG. 1 shows representative raw curves of binding by time and a summary table showing recombinant IL-18BP binding by IL-18BP antibodies and demonstrating characterization of antibody / IL-18BP binding affinities and cross reactivity. FIG.1A shows antibody binding to human, murine, and cynomolgus IL-18BP by biolayer interferometry. A summary table is inserted into FIG. 1A. FIG.1B shows human IL-18BP binding with a summary table inserted; FIG.1C shows murine IL- 18BP binding; FIG. 1D shows cyno IL-18BP binding. The majority of the anti-IL-18BP antibodies were capable of binding to human, mouse, and cynomolgus IL-18BP.

[0306] The specificity of anti-IL-18BP antibodies was assessed by the multiantigen ELISA as previously described (Jain, T., et al, PNAS 2017, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety, including any drawings). Briefly, 100 nM of each antibody was incubated for 1 hour to wells precoated with various antigens. Following washing, any bound antibody was detected using an anti- huIgG HRP secondary antibody.
[0307] FIG. 2 shows that anti-IL-18BP antibodies TZ-2349 and TZ-2367 perform similarly to the negative control and have minimal binding to the multiantigen panel. This suggests a favorable developability profile.9.4 Example 4: Biophysical Characterization of Anti-IL-18BP Antibodies by IL- 18BP-IL-18 Blocking ELISA
[0308] The ability of the IL18BP antibodies to block IL-18BP binding was assessed through Enzyme Linked ImmunoSorbant Assay (ELISA). Human IL-18BP was coated onto 96-well microplates at 1µg / mL. After overnight incubation at 4°C, the wells were washed multiple times with 1x PBS with 0.05% Tween 20.
[0309] A fixed concentration of anti-IL-18 was added onto the well at 2x the final concentration and allowed to incubate for one hour at room temperature. Without removal of the antibody, 2ng / mL of biotinylated recombinant human IL-18 was added to the wells and allowed to incubate for 30 minutes at room temperature. After incubation, the plate was again washed multiple times with 1x PBS with 0.05% Tween 20.
[0310] Any biotinylated IL18 that was able to bind the coated IL-18BP was detected with Streptavidin conjugated horseradish peroxidase (HRP) diluted 5000-fold. Color development was achieved with TMB substrate solution. Once sufficient color was achieved, the reaction was quenched with 2N sulfuric acid. Signal was then read at 450nm on an optical plate reader.
[0311] Isotype control antibody had minimal effect on the binding of IL-18BP to immobilized IL-18. In contrast, all anti-IL18BP clones were capable of blocking IL-18BP binding to immobilized IL-18 at nanomolar and subnanomolar IC50s. These results indicate that the IL-18BP antibodies are capable of inhibiting the binding of IL-18BP to IL-18. The results can be seen in FIG.3. 9.5 Example 5: Functional assessment of IL-18BP blocking antibodies by HEK-IL-18 Receptor Reporter assay
[0312] The HEK-Blue™ IL-18 cell line (Invitrogen) was used to evaluate the function of anti-IL-18BP antibodies. This cell line has molecular modifications including ectopic IL-18R expression and mutations in signaling molecules to restrict the NFKB promoter driven production of secreted alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) to IL-18 cytokine binding signaling. The anti-IL18BP antibodies were tested for function.
[0313] To do so, cells were lifted, plated, and tested the same day as the stimulations were given. Antibodies at the indicated concentrations were added to wells, followed by 1 ng / mL IL-18BP and then 30 pg / mL. No deliberate pre-complexing incubations were performed. Cells were then cultured overnight, then supernatants were collected and sometimes frozen and developed according to the manufacturer’s protocol.
[0314] FIG.4 shows the results of testing anti-IL18BP antibodies in a suppression assay using an IL- 18 reporter cell line, HEK-Blue™ IL-18. Cells were stimulated with IL-18 (x ug / ml) in the presence of an inhibitory concentration of IL-18BP (x ug / ml) and a dose titration of anti-IL-18BP antibodyclones. Cells were stimulated overnight and SEAP activity in supernatants was tested.
[0315] The results of the assay where isotype-matched antibody was unable to restore reporter function; activity with anti-IL-18BP antibodies all showed restoration of IL-18 function. This shows that the anti-IL-18BP antibody clones tested were effective at blocking the suppression of IL-18 signaling via IL-18BP. 9.6 Example 6: IL-18BP antibodies enhance response to systemically administered IL-18
[0316] To evaluate the efficacy of anti-IL18-BP antibodies in vivo and the cross reactivity of anti- human IL-18BP antibodies to mouse IL-18BP, eight week old female BALB / c mice were intravenously injected with 100ug of isotype control and anti-IL-18BP antibodies, followed by intraperitoneal injection of 30ng recombinant mouse IL-18 (R&D Systems cat# 9139-IL) two hours later. Serum was collected two hours after IL-18 administration for analysis. Samples from two or three mice were then tested for IFN-gamma by ELISA.
[0317] FIG.5 shows the results of testing anti-IL18BP antibodies in a suppression assay with in-vivo enhancement of IL-18 responses by anti-IL-18BP antibodies. As shown in FIG.5, the IL18BP antibody clones were able to reverse suppression of IFN-gamma production by IL-18BP demonstrating that clones against IL-18BP were active in vivo. Mice were injected with anti-IL18BP antibodies clones and recombinant mouse IL-18 as depicted. Serum was collected and tested for IFN-gamma levels by ELISA. This demonstrates that the IL-18BP antibodies were functional in vivo and are cross reactive to mouse IL-18BP in an in vivo experiment. 9.7 Example 7: IL-18BP antibodies productively alter the tumor microenvironment in a syngeneic mouse tumor model
[0318] A syngeneic, ectopic tumor study was conducted to evaluate the effects of anti-IL18BP TZ- 2349 in combination with anti-PD1. 1x105CT26m colon carcinoma tumor cells were injected subcutaneously into the flank in 100 uL of PBS. Sizes were measured using a digital caliper and tumor volumes calculated with the formula (length x width2) / 2.
[0319] Following tumor implantation, at day 9 mice were randomized into treatment groups and treated by IP injection on days 9, 13, 16, and 20 of the indicated antibodies at 175ug / mouse for anti-IL18BP and 200ug / mouse for anti-PD1. Isotype controls were combined and injected to deliver matched doses. Clones of antibodies were as follows: an anti-HA antibody was the isotype control for the anti-IL18BP antibodies, and anti-Trinitrophenol clone 2A3 (BioXcell) for anti-PD1, anti-PD1 was clone RMP1-14, BioXcell.
[0320] Seven days after the first injection of antibodies mice were sacrificed and tumors and spleens were collected for analysis of tumor-specific T cells. Spleens were mashed and filtered while tumorswere disintegrated to single cell suspension by mincing with scissors, then via gentleMACS Octo Dissociator (Miltenyi) digested in media containing 2% Collagenase IV (Worthington), and ultrapure Benzonase (Sigma). TILs and splenocytes were either stained for surface markers, transcription factor and AH1-tetramer (SPSYVYHQF, gp70423-431) for tumor specificity determination or stimulated with 1 ug / ml with AH1 peptide (SPSYVYHQF, gp70423-431) with GolgiPLug (BD)and incubated for 5 hours at 37C with 5% CO2 and then processed for flow cytometry and stained for intracellular cytokines.
[0321] FIG.6 depicts the enhancement of tumor specific T-cell function following treatment with anti- IL-18BP antibody TZ-2349 in combination with anti-PD1. Tumor bearing mice were treated with isotype controls, anti-PD-1, or the combination of anti-PD-1 anti-IL-18BP. Tumor and spleen cells were stimulated with media or the immunodominant epitope AH1. Shown are the FACS plots for Interferon gamma and CCL5 of tumor lymphocytes stimulated with AH1 peptide (A) and the frequencies of Interferon gamma and CCL5 positive cells in the spleen and tumors from treated mice (B). Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test.∗p < 0.05, ∗∗p < 0.01, ∗∗∗p < 0.001.
[0322] As cells from tumor and spleen were stimulated with AH1 peptide and stained for cytokines, upon restimulation with AH1 peptide, treatment with isotype-matched antibodies or anti-PD-1 antibody failed to elicit responses above stimulation with media alone. In comparison, the splenocytes and TILs from mice treated with the combination of anti-PD1 and anti-IL18BP 2349 had significantly more T cells that stained for interferon gamma or Ccl5 following AH1-peptide stimulation compared to the media control and, importantly, significantly more cytokine positive cells compared to AH1- stimulations of cells from isotype or anti-PD1 treated mice.
[0323] Further analysis of TME was conducted by ex vivo staining of lymphocytes for AH1-tetramer. FIG. 7 shows that the combination of anti-PD1 and anti-IL18BP clone 2349 resulted in an increased frequency of tumor-specific AH1-tetramer staining CD8 T cells, a decrease in the frequency of CD4 Tregs (FOXP3+) amongst the CD45-staining lymphocytes in the tumor when compared to isotype antibody treatment or anti-PD1 alone. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were stimulated over night with IL-18, IL-12, IL-18BP and anti-IL18BP antibodies. Supernatants were collected and tested for concentrations of Interferon gamma Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test.∗p < 0.05, ∗∗p < 0.01, ∗∗∗p < 0.001.
[0324] Accordingly, the ratio of tumor-specific T cells to Tregs was increased in the tumors from mice treated with the combination of anti-PD1 and anti-IL18BP clone 2349. Further, analysis of the tumor specific CD8 T cells in the spleen showed that such cells from mice treated with the combination of anti-PD1 and anti-IL18BP stained for more CD11c (an activation marker for recently activated CD8 T cells) and Granzyme B. CD4 T cells (non-Treg, FoxP3-, CD4+) from mice treated with the combinationof anti-PD1 and anti-IL18BP 2349 had increased Granzyme B staining compared to isotype or anti- PD1 treatment.
[0325] The results demonstrate that the combination of anti-PD1 and anti-IL18BP clone 2349 alter the tumor microenvironment in a productive manner including activation of tumor-specific CD8 T cells and non-Treg CD4 T cells. These results demonstrate that anti-IL18BP clones are functional in the tumor microenvironment and are cross reactive to mouse IL-18BP. 9.8 Example 8: IL-18BP antibodies reverse suppression of IL-18BP in a human peripheral blood mononuclear cell assay
[0326] To further test the function of anti-IL18BP antibodies in human cells, a primary cell assay was developed using peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Optimized concentrations of IL-18 and IL-12 to induce interferon gamma and suppression by IL-18BP were determined in an overnight culture with interferon gamma concentration as a readout for the response. The efficacy of the IL-18BP antibodies were then tested in these conditions.
[0327] Shown in FIG.8 are the concentrations of interferon gamma following stimulation in the presence of the anti-IL-18BP antibodies. Controls, no IL-18, and no IL-18BP are the minimal and maximal signal for the assay respectively. All clones tested showed partial or complete restoration of signal compared to the stimulation in the absence of IL-18BP. The results further support the functional activity of the anti-IL-18BP antibodies. Example S: Sequences
