Description

[0001] BINDING AGENTS HAVING ALTERED FC-MEDIATED EFFECTOR FUNCTIONS Field of the invention The present invention relates to CH3 domain-containing binding agents, such as antibodies, that have altered Fc-mediated effector functions resulting from one or more amino acid modifications in the Fc domain. The invention further relates to polynucleotides encoding such binding agents, cells capable of producing such binding agents and the use of the binding agents of the invention for the treatment of diseases. Moreover, the invention relates to methods for altering one or more effector functions of a binding agent, wherein the methods comprise the introduction of particular amino acids at particular positions in the binding agent. Background of the invention Antibodies conventionally consist of four polypeptide chains, two light (L) chains and two heavy (H) chains, that form a complex through non-covalent and covalent interactions. Each L chain associates with one H chain through non-covalent interactions between the variable (V) domains (VL and VH, respectively) and constant (C) domains (CL and CH1, respectively), and are stabilized by a covalent inter-chain disulfide bridge between the C domains. The two H chains associate with each other through non-covalent interactions between the two CH3 domains and are stabilized by covalent inter-chain disulfide bridges in the hinge region of the molecule. The CH3 domains are held together mainly through hydrophobic interactions at the center of the interface and symmetric electrostatic interactions surrounding the hydrophobic core (Ha et al, Front. Immunol. (2016), 7: 394). Antibodies are highly effective molecules which can have effects on foreign entities or target cells via various mechanisms. Binding of an antibody to a target antigen on a cell surface can drive a direct antagonistic or agonistic effect on the target cell. Antibodies can also exert effects on target cells through Fc-mediated effector functions such as complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), complement- dependent cellular phagocytosis (CDCP), antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and antibody-dependent cell-mediated phagocytosis (ADCP). Such Fc-mediated effector functions may contribute to the therapeutic efficacy of antibody treatments. CDC and CDCP are initiated by binding of C1q to the Fc regions of antibodies bound to surface antigen on a target cell. C1q is a multimeric protein consisting of six globular binding heads attached to a stalk. The individual globular binding heads have low affinity for IgG; and C1q must gain avidity by binding multiple IgG molecules on a cell surface to trigger the classical complement pathway. IgG hexamerization upon target binding on the cell surface has been shown to support avid C1q binding (Diebolder (2014) Science 343:1260). The hexamerization is mediated through intermolecular non-covalent Fc-Fc interactions, and Fc-Fc interactions can be enhanced by point mutations in the CH3 domain, including E345R and E430G. WO2013 / 004842 discloses antibodies or polypeptides comprising variant Fc regions having one or more amino acid modifications resulting in modified effector functions such as CDC. WO2014 / 108198 discloses polypeptides such as antibodies comprising variant Fc regions having one or more amino acid modifications resulting in increased CDC. WO2016 / 164480 discloses antigen binding complexes having agonistic activity. ADCC and ADCP are initiated by binding of the Fc region to Fc receptor (FcR)-bearing cells. In humans, FcgRI, FcgRIIa (H / R) and FcgRIIIa (F / V) are activatory receptors and FcgRIIb is an inhibitory receptor. Previous efforts have been made to identify antibody Fc-variants with an enhanced effector function or other modified properties. Such studies have focused on, e.g., exchanging segments between IgG isotypes to generate chimeric IgG molecules (Natsume et al., 2008 Cancer Res 68(10), 3863-72), or amino acid substitutions in the hinge region (Dall'Acqua et al., 2006 J Immunol 177, 1129- 1138), or in or near the C1q-binding site in the CH2 domain, centered around residues D270, K322, P329, and P331 (Idusogie et al., 2001 J Immunol 166, 2571-2575; Michaelsen et al., 2009 Scand J Immunol 70, 553-564 and WO 99 / 51642). For example, Moore et al. (2010 mAbs 2(2), 181-189) describes testing various combinations of S267E, H268F, S324T, S239D, I332E, G236A and I332E for enhanced effector functions via CDC or ADCC. Other Fc mutations affecting binding to Fc- receptors (WO 2006 / 105062, WO 2000 / 42072, U.S. Patent 6,737,056 and U.S. Patent 7,083,784) or physical properties of the antibodies (WO 2007 / 005612 Al) have also been suggested. Most efforts for enhancing Fc-mediated effector functions have concentrated on altering glycosylation patterns, introducing mutations in the CH2 regions known to interact with Fc gamma receptors (FcgRs) and complement components, or through amino acid modifications to improve Fc-Fc interactions. By concentrating on a narrow set of modifications, existing solutions may overlook alternative features of the Fc region that could be leveraged for therapeutic benefit. The CH3 domain, for instance, has been less explored in the context of modulating antibody effector functions. There remains a need for novel antibodies combining different strategies, such as Fc-Fc interaction or enhanced C1q / FcgR / FcRn binding, with novel approaches like CH3-CH3 interface modifications to modulate Fc-mediated effector functions to improve therapeutic efficacy. Summary of the invention It is an object of the present invention to provide for novel approaches for modulation of Fc region- mediated effector functions via modifications in the CH3-CH3 interface. Accordingly, it is an object of the invention to provide a binding agent, such as an antibody, comprising a mutated CH3 domain of a human IgG and a target-binding region, such as an antigen-binding region, which binding agent has increased capacity for FcgammaRIIa-H activation, when compared to a parent binding agent which is identical but without the CH3 mutation(s).

Detailed description of the invention Definitions According to the present invention, a “binding agent”, such as an antibody or fragment thereof, is capable of binding to a predetermined target if it has a significant affinity for said predetermined target and binds to said predetermined target in standard assays. "Affinity" or "binding affinity" is often measured by equilibrium dissociation constant (KD). Preferably, the term "significant affinity" refers to the binding to a predetermined target with a dissociation constant (KD) of 10-5M or lower, 10-6M or lower, 10-7M or lower, 10-8M or lower, 10-9M or lower, 10-10M or lower, 10-11M or lower, or 10-12M or lower. The term "immunoglobulin" (IgG) refers to a class of structurally related glycoproteins consisting of two pairs of polypeptide chains, one pair of light (L) low molecular weight chains and one pair of heavy (H) chains, all four potentially interconnected by disulfide bonds. The structure of immunoglobulins has been well characterized. Briefly, each heavy chain typically is comprised of a heavy chain variable region (abbreviated herein as VH) and a heavy chain constant region. The heavy chain constant region typically is comprised of three domains, CH1, CH2, and CH3 and a so-called “hinge region”. The heavy chains are inter-connected via disulfide bonds in the hinge region. Each light chain typically is comprised of a light chain variable region (abbreviated herein as VL) and a light chain constant region. The light chain constant region typically is comprised of one domain (abbreviated herein as CL). The VH and VL regions may be further subdivided into regions of hypervariability (or hypervariable regions which may be hypervariable in sequence and / or form of structurally defined loops), also termed complementarity determining regions (CDRs), interspersed with regions that are more conserved, termed framework regions (FRs). Each VH and VL is typically composed of three CDRs and four FRs, arranged from amino-terminus to carboxy-terminus in the following order: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4 (see also Chothia and Lesk J. Mol. Biol.196, 901917 (1987)). Unless otherwise stated or contradicted by context, CDR sequences herein are identified according to IMGT rules using DomainGapAlign (Lefranc MP., Nucleic Acids Research 1999;27:209-212 and Ehrenmann F., Kaas Q. and Lefranc M.-P. Nucleic Acids Res., 38, D301-307 (2010); see also internet http address www.imgt.org / ). Unless otherwise stated or contradicted by context, reference to amino acid positions in the C regions, in the present invention is according to the Eu numbering (EU index) (Edelman et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci U SA. 1969 May;63(1) :78-85; Kabat et al., Sequences of proteins of immunological interest. 5thEdition - 1991 NIH Publication No. 91-3242) and in V regions is according to the Kabat numbering (Kabat et al., Sequences of proteins of immunological interest.5thEdition - 1991 NIH Publication No.91-3242). When reference is made to certain amino acid positions (e.g. in the context of IgG1), it will be clear that corresponding positions in similar protein sequences (such as other isotypes or allotypes), can be determined by the skilled person, e.g. by sequence alignment. The “Fc-region” of an immunoglobulin is defined as the fragment of an antibody which would be typically generated after digestion of an antibody with papain (which is known for someone skilled in the art) which includes the two CH2-CH3 domains of an immunoglobulin and a connecting region, e.g. a hinge region. The constant domain of an antibody heavy chain defines the antibody isotype / subclass, e.g. IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, IgA2, IgM, IgD, or IgE. The Fc-region mediates the effector functions of antibodies with cell surface receptors called Fc receptors and proteins of the complement system. In the context of the present invention, the term "hinge region" refers to the hinge region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain. Thus, for example the hinge region of a human IgG1 antibody corresponds to amino acids 216-230 according to the Eu numbering. However, the hinge region may also be any of the other subtypes as described herein. The term "CH2 region" or "CH2 domain" as used herein is intended to refer to the CH2 domain of an immunoglobulin heavy chain. Thus, for example the CH2 domain of a human IgG1 antibody corresponds to amino acids 231-340 according to the Eu numbering. However, the CH2 domain may also be any of the other subtypes as described herein. The term "CH2 region" or "CH2 domain" used interchangeably herein. The term "CH3 region" or "CH3 domain" as used herein is intended to refer to the CH3 domain of an immunoglobulin heavy chain. Thus, for example the CH3 domain of a human IgG1 antibody corresponds to amino acids 341-447 according to the Eu numbering. However, the CH3 domain may also be any of the other subtypes as described herein. The term "CH3 region" or "CH3 domain" used interchangeably herein. The term “monomer” or “monomer polypeptide”, as used herein, refers to a single polypeptide chain or a single polypeptide molecule, that is capable of pairing with one or more other monomer polypeptides, to form a dimer, oligomer or multimer, due to the presence of at least one domain that promotes the polymerization due to interaction(s) between opposite domains in the one or more other monomers. A monomer polypeptide according to the present invention can for example be a heavy chain of an antibody or immunoglobulin, or a derivative thereof, such as a Fc-fusion protein, or a fragment thereof, such as a fragment comprising a CH3 domain or a fragment comprising an Fc region comprising a CH3 domain, wherein the CH3 domain can promote the polymerization with a CH3 domain from another monomer polypeptide. Antibody light chains are not monomer polypeptides in the context of the present invention. In the context of the present invention, the term “dimer” refers to the product as formed by the polymerization of two monomer polypeptides comprising at least one domain that promotes the polymerization due to interaction(s) between opposite domains. In the context of the present invention, term “heterodimer” refers to the polymerization of two monomer polypeptides, which are not identical. In the context of the present invention, term “homodimer” refers to the polymerization of two identical monomer polypeptides such as an antibody heavy chain. The term "antibody" (Ab) in the context of the present invention refers to an immunoglobulin molecule, a fragment of an immunoglobulin molecule, or a derivative of either thereof, which has the ability to specifically bind to an antigen. The antibody of the present invention typically comprises an Fc region of an immunoglobulin and an antigen-binding region. An antibody generally contains two CH2-CH3 domains and a connecting region, e.g. a hinge region. The variable regions of the heavy and light chains of the immunoglobulin molecule contain a binding domain that interacts with an antigen (an antigen-binding region). As described above, the Fc regions of the antibodies may mediate the binding of the immunoglobulin to host tissues or factors, including various cells of the immune system (such as effector cells) and components of the complement system such as C1q, the first component in the classical pathway of complement activation. In the context of the present invention, the term antibody includes without limitation VHH-Fc, scFv-Fc and scFab-Fc molecules. The term "full-length antibody" when used herein, refers to an antibody which contains all heavy and light chain constant and variable domains corresponding to those that are normally found in a wild-type antibody of that isotype. The term "human antibody", as used herein, is intended to include antibodies having variable and constant regions derived from human germline immunoglobulin sequences. The human antibodies of the invention may include amino acid residues not encoded by human germline immunoglobulin sequences (e.g. mutations, insertions or deletions introduced by random or site-specific mutagenesis in vitro or by somatic mutation in vivo). However, the term "human antibody", as used herein, is not intended to include antibodies in which CDR sequences derived from the germline of another species such as mammalian species, such as a mouse, have been grafted onto human framework sequences. The terms “HexaBody® technology” or “Hexabody® platform” as used herein refers to an antibody Fc engineering technology platform developed to promote Fc:Fc interactions between individual antibodies and enhancing hexamer formation, such as by introducing the E430G, E345R or E345K mutation, as described in WO2013004842A2. Such enhanced Fc:Fc interactions may result in improved target-bound antibody clustering on the cell surface, leading to a variety of potential effects, including enhanced C1q binding and enhanced complement-dependent cytotoxicity. The term “Fc effector functions,” as used herein, is intended to refer to functions that are a consequence of binding a polypeptide or antibody to its target, such as an antigen, on a cell membrane wherein the Fc effector function is attributable to the Fc region of the polypeptide or antibody. Examples of Fc effector functions include (i) C1q-binding, (ii) complement activation, (iii) complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), (iv) antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxity (ADCC), (v) Fc-gamma receptor-binding, (vi) antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP), (vii) complement-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (CDCC), (viii) complement-enhanced cytotoxicity, (ix) binding to complement receptor of an opsonized antibody mediated by the antibody, (x) opsonisation, (xi) trogocytosis, (xii) complement dependent cellular phagocytosis (CDCP) and (xiii) a combination of any of (i) to (xii). As used herein, the term “complement activation” refers to the activation of the classical complement pathway, which is initiated by a large macromolecular complex called C1 binding to antibody-antigen complexes on a surface. C1 is a complex, which consists of 6 recognition proteins C1q and a hetero- tetramer of serine proteases, C1r2C1s2. C1 is the first protein complex in the early events of the classical complement cascade that involves a series of cleavage reactions that starts with the cleavage of C4 into C4a and C4b and C2 into C2a and C2b. C4b is deposited and forms together with C2a an enzymatic active convertase called C3 convertase, which cleaves complement component C3 into C3b and C3a, which forms a C5 convertase This C5 convertase splits C5 in C5a and C5b and the last component is deposited on the membrane and that in turn triggers the late events of complement activation in which terminal complement components C5b, C6, C7, C8 and C9 assemble into the membrane attack complex (MAC). The complement cascade results in the creation of pores in the cell membrane which causes lysis of the cell, also known as complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC). Complement activation can be evaluated by using C1q efficacy, CDC kinetics CDC assays (as described in WO2013 / 004842, WO2014 / 108198) or by the method Cellular deposition of C3b and C4b described in Beurskens et al., J Immunol April 1, 2012 vol. 188 no.7, 3532-3541. The term “complement-dependent cytotoxicity” (CDC), as used herein, is intended to refer to the process of antibody-mediated complement activation leading to lysis of the cell to which the antibody is bound, which, without being bound by theory is believed to be the result of pores in the membrane that are created by the assembly of the so-called membrane attack complex (MAC). Suitable assays for evaluating CDC are known in the art and include, for example, in vitro assays in which normal human serum is used as a complement source, as described in the Examples herein. The term “antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity” (“ADCC”) as used herein, is intended to refer to a mechanism of killing of antibody-coated target cells by cells expressing Fc receptors that recognize the constant region of the bound antibody. Suitable assays for evaluating ADCC are known in the art. The term “antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis” (“ADCP”) as used herein is intended to refer to a mechanism of elimination of antibody-coated target cells by internalization by phagocytes. The internalized antibody-coated target cells are contained in a vesicle called a phagosome, which then fuses with one or more lysosomes to form a phagolysosome. Suitable assays for evaluating ADCP are known in the art and include, for example, the in vitro cytotoxicity assay with macrophages as effector cells and video microscopy as described by van Bij et al. in Journal of Hepatology Volume 53, Issue 4, October 2010, Pages 677–685. As used herein, “trogocytosis” refers to a process characterized by the transfer of cell surface molecules from a donor cell to an acceptor cell, such as an effector cell. Typical acceptor cells include T and B cells, monocytes / macrophages, dendritic cells, neutrophils, and NK cells. Trogocytosis-mediated transfer of a cell surface molecule such as, e.g., CD38, from a donor cell to an acceptor cell may also result in the transfer of an antibody-antigen complex from the donor cell to an acceptor cell, i.e., an antibody-antigen complex where an antibody is bound to the cell surface molecule. In particular, a specialized form of trogocytosis may occur when the acceptor cells are Fc-gamma-receptor (FcγR) expressing effector cells; these acceptor cells may take up and internalize donor cell-associated immune complexes composed of specific antibodies bound to target antigens on donor cells, typically after binding of FcγRs to the Fc regions of the antibodies. Suitable assays for evaluating trogocytosis are known in the art. By “Fc gamma receptor” or “FcγR” as used herein is meant any member of the family of proteins that binds the IgG antibody Fc region and is substantially encoded by one of the FcγR genes. In humans this family includes but is not limited to: FcγRI (CD64), including isoforms FcγRIa, FcγRIb, and FcγRIc; FcγRII (CD32), including isoforms FcγRIIa (including allotypes H131 and R131), FcγRIIb (including FcγRIIb-1 and FcγRIIb-2), and FcγRIIc; and FcγRIII (CD16), including isoforms FcγRIIIa (including allotypes V158 and F158) and FcγRIIIb (including allotypes FcγRIIIb-NA1 and FcγRIIIb-NA2), as well as any undiscovered human FcγRs or FcγR isoforms or allotypes. An FcγR may be from any organism, including but not limited to humans, mice, rats, rabbits, and monkeys. Mouse FcγRs include but are not limited to FcγRI (CD64), FcγRII (CD32), FcγRII) (CD16), and FcγRII)-2 (CD16-2), as well as any undiscovered mouse FcγRs or FcγR isoforms or allotypes. The term “inert”, as used herein, refers to the suppressed ability or inability of the Fc domain, through Fc engineering technology, of an antibody to execute Fc-mediated effector functions. Such Fc-mediated effector function can e.g. be measured by determining Fc-mediated CD69 expression on T cells in a co- culture of cells, by binding to Fcγ receptors, by binding to C1q, or by induction of Fc-mediated cross-linking of FcRs. Mutations that impart inertness on antibodies have been discussed in e.g., Liu et al., Antibodies, 2020 Nov 17;9(4):64; 29(10):457-66. Examples of such inert mutations include e.g. G236R, G237A, L234A- L235A-P329G [AAG; Schlothauer et al., Protein Eng. Design and Selection 2016; 29(10):457-66], L234F- L235E-D265A [FEA; US10590206B2], L234F-L235E-G236R [FER; WO2022 / 189667A1] and P329R (as described e.g., in WO2018083126A1). The term “HexElect® technology” or “HexElect® platform”, as used herein, refers to an antibody Fc engineering technology and platform developed to inhibit self-oligomerization of each of a pair of antibodies, such as by introducing K439E or S440K, and promote selective hetero-hexamerization of the said antibodies upon binding their cognate antigen on the same cell, as e.g. described in WO2019211472 and Oostindie et al. Logic-gated antibody pairs that selectively act on cells co-expressing two antigens. Nat Biotechnol 40(10):1509-1519 (2022). The term “prolonged IgG1 half-life” refers to the extension of the serum half-life of IgG1 antibodies. Serum half-life of antibodies and their derivatives is dependent on their capacity to bind the Fc neonatal receptor (FcRn) at low pH (e.g., pH 6.0) in endosomes, which can be enhanced by Fc engineering, e.g., by introducing mutations M252Y, S254T, and T256E (YTE) in the IgG Fc domain, as described in e.g., Dall’Acqua, W. F. et al. Increasing the affinity of a human IgG1 for the neonatal Fc receptor: biological consequences. J. Immunol.169, 5171–5180 (2002). The term “stable half antibody” as used herein refers to an Fc engineering technology platform, such as UniBody, developed to promote weakened CH3:CH3 interactions in hinge-deleted or hinge mutated IgG molecules, such as by deleting the amino acid sequence ESKYGPPCPSCP of the hinge region and introducing F405T and Y407E mutations in human IgG4, as described e.g. in US 2012 / 0020952 A1. Such engineered IgG molecules may result in stable, effector-function silent monomeric half-antibodies that are monovalent, thus able to bind their target without activation of the target by cross-linking or by inducing effector function. The term "chimeric antibody”, as used herein, refers to an antibody in which both chain types, i.e. heavy chain and light chain, are chimeric as a result of antibody engineering. A chimeric chain is a chain that contains a foreign variable domain (originating from a non-human species, or synthetic or engineered from any species including human) linked to a constant region of human origin. The term “isotype” as used herein, refers to the immunoglobulin class (for instance IgG, IgD, IgA1, IgGA2, IgE, or IgM. IgGs may by further classified as subclasses IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 or IgG4. The term “subclass” as used herein, refers to the IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 and IgG4 subclasses of the IgG isotype. The IgG1 subclass may be further classified according to allotypes thereof such as IgG1m(za) and IgG1m(f) that is encoded by heavy chain constant region genes. Further, each heavy chain isotype can be combined with either a kappa or lambda light chain. The term “mixed isotype” or “mixed subclass” used herein refers to the Fc region of an immunoglobulin generated by combining structural features of one isotype with the analogous region from another isotype thereby generating a hybrid isotype. A mixed isotype may comprise an Fc region having a sequence comprised of two or more isotypes selected from the following IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgD, IgA1, IgGA2, IgE, or IgM thereby generating combinations such as e.g. IgG1 / IgG3, IgG1 / IgG4, IgG2 / IgG3, IgG2 / IgG4, or IgG1 / IgA. The term “domain crossover” as used herein, refers to an immunoglobulin in which the VH domain is exchanged with the VL domain and / or the CH1 domain is exchanged with the CL domain, as described in WO2015 / 101588 A1 and WO 2009 / 080253 A1. Further, the domain crossover may contain mutations at the VH / VL and / or CH1 / CL interfaces. The term “target-binding region” refers to a region of a binding agent that specifically binds a target, typically a protein on the surface of a cell. In preferred embodiments, the target-binding region is an antigen-binding region of an antibody, but in other embodiments, the target-binding region may be a different type of binding region, for example a ligand of a cell-surface receptor. The term "antigen-binding region”, “antigen binding region”, “binding region” or “antigen binding domain”, as used herein, refers to a region of an antibody which is capable of binding to the antigen. This binding region is typically defined by the VH and VL domains of the antibody which may be further subdivided into regions of hypervariability (or hypervariable regions which may be hypervariable in sequence and / or form of structurally defined loops), also termed complementarity determining regions (CDRs), interspersed with regions that are more conserved, termed framework regions (FRs). The antigen can be any molecule, such as a polypeptide, e.g. present on a cell, bacterium, or virion. The term "allosteric modulation of the effector binding site", as used herein, is intended to refer to modulation of the conformational distribution of the effector binding sites in antibodies, such as IgG antibodies, through changes in amino acids that do not directly engage effector molecules, such as in the CH3 domains of (IgG) antibodies. Allostery in antibody Fc domains is e.g. described in Pincetic et al., Nat Immunol.2014 Aug; 15(8): 707–716. The term “effector binding region” or “effector binding site” as used herein, is intended to refer to a region or certain amino acids within for example an (IgG) antibody that can directly bind to and engage effector molecules, such as Fc receptors and complement components (complement components are described under “complement activation”). The term “vector” as used herein, is intended to refer to a nucleic acid molecule capable of inducing transcription of a nucleic acid segment ligated into the vector. One type of vector is a “plasmid”, which is in the form of a circular double-stranded DNA loop. Another type of vector is a viral vector, wherein the nucleic acid segment may be ligated into the viral genome. Certain vectors are capable of autonomous replication in a host cell into which they are introduced (for instance bacterial vectors having a bacterial origin of replication and episomal mammalian vectors). Other vectors (such as non-episomal mammalian vectors) may be integrated into the genome of a host cell upon introduction into the host cell, and thereby are replicated along with the host genome. Moreover, certain vectors are capable of directing the expression of genes to which they are operatively linked. Such vectors are referred to herein as “recombinant expression vectors” (or simply, “expression vectors”). In general, expression vectors of utility in recombinant DNA techniques are often in the form of plasmids. However, the present invention is intended to include other forms of expression vectors, such as viral vectors (such as replication defective retroviruses, adenoviruses and adeno-associated viruses), which serve equivalent functions. The term "recombinant host cell”, as used herein, is intended to refer to a cell into which one or more heterologous polynucleotides, such as one or more expression vectors has been introduced. It should be understood that such terms are intended to refer not only to the particular subject cell, but also to the progeny of such a cell. Because certain modifications may occur in succeeding generations due to either mutation or environmental influences, such progeny may not, in fact, be identical to the parent cell, but are still included within the scope of the term “host cell” as used herein. Recombinant host cells include, for example, transfectomas, such as CHO cells, HEK-293 cells, PER.C6, NS0 cells, and lymphocytic cells, and prokaryotic cells such as E. coli and other eukaryotic hosts such as plant cells and fungi. The terms “nucleic acid” or “nucleic acid molecule” or “polynucleotide” as used herein, will be understood by a person skilled in the art and refers to a polymer comprising or consisting of nucleotide monomers that are covalently linked to each other by phosphodiester-bonds of a sugar / phosphate-backbone. The terms “nucleic acid sequence" “nucleotide sequence” or “polynucleotide sequence” will be recognized and understood by the person of ordinary skill in the art, and e.g. refer to a particular and individual order of the succession of its nucleotides. The term “coding sequence (cds)”, “coding region” or “open reading frame (ORF)”, as used here a sequence of several nucleotide triplets, which may be translated into a peptide or protein. A coding sequence in the context of the present invention, may consist of a number of nucleotides that may be divided by three, which starts with a start codon and which preferably terminates with a stop codon. The terms ‘mutant’, ‘mutation’, ‘mutated’ or ‘substitution’, ‘substituted’ in this context means that another amino acid is present on the indicated position than in the corresponding parent molecule. A parent molecule in the present context can for example be a constant region, Fc region or CH3 region of a (human) IgG molecule, such as (human) IgG1, or (human) light chain constant regions. These will be understood by a person skilled in the art. Sequences of for example the human IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 and IgG4 constant regions as well as the human kappa and lambda light chain constant regions are disclosed herein. Such parent molecule may exist physically as polypeptide or in the form of nucleic acid encoding such polypeptide, but may also merely exist in silico or on paper as amino acid sequence or a corresponding nucleic acid sequence encoding the amino acid sequence. A mutation or substitution in this context is therefore also considered present for instance if a protein is expressed from a nucleic acid that has been synthesized such that it encodes the mutation or substitution, even though the nucleic acid encoding the corresponding parent molecule was not initially actually prepared during the process, e.g. when the nucleic acid molecule has been prepared entirely by chemical synthesis. In the context of the present invention, a substitution in a variant may be indicated as: Original amino acid – position – substituted amino acid The three-letter code, or one letter code, is used, including the codes Xaa and X to indicate amino acid residue. Accordingly, the notation “Q347R” or “Gln347Arg” means that the variant comprises a substitution of Glutamine with Arginine in the variant amino acid position corresponding to the amino acid in position 347 in the reference antibody. When used herein, phrases such as “wherein said CH3 domain comprises any two, three or all four of the following residues: D351, K357, K366, E370” or the like for other positions, mean that the CH3 domain may comprise any combination of two or three or all four of the specified residues, i.e. in this case: D351 and K357, D351 and K366, D351 and E370, K357 and K366, K357 and E370, K366 and E370, D351, K357 and K366, D351, K357 and E370, D351, K366 and E370, K357, K366 and E370, or D351, K357, K366 and E370. For purposes of the present invention, the “sequence identity” between two amino acid sequences or nucleotide sequences is determined using the Needleman-Wunsch algorithm (Needleman and Wunsch, 1970, J. Mol. Biol.48: 443-453) as implemented in the Needle program of the EMBOSS package (EMBOSS: The European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite, Rice et al., 2000, Trends Genet. 16: 276-277), preferably version 5.0.0 or later. The parameters used are gap open penalty of 10, gap extension penalty of 0.5, and the EBLOSUM62 (EMBOSS version of BLOSUM62) substitution matrix. The output of Needle labeled "longest identity" (obtained using the -nobrief option) is used as the percent identity and is calculated as follows: (Identical Residues x 100) / (Length of Alignment - Total Number of Gaps in Alignment). The retention of similar residues may also or alternatively be measured by a similarity score, as determined by use of a BLAST program (e.g., BLAST 2.2.8 available through the NCBI using standard settings BLOSUM62, Open Gap=11 and Extended Gap=1). Suitable variants typically exhibit at least about 45%, such as at least about 55%, at least about 65%, at least about 75%, at least about 85%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, or more (e.g., about 99%) similarity to the parent sequence. The terms “about” or “approximately” are used herein, when parameters or values do not necessarily need to be identical, i.e.100% the same. Accordingly, “about” means, that a parameter or value may be identical but may also diverge by 0.1% to 20%, preferably by 0.1% to 10%; in particular, by 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14%, 15%, 16%, 17%, 18%, 19%, or 20%. The skilled person will know that e.g. certain parameters or values may slightly vary based on the method how the parameter is determined. For example, if a certain parameter or value is defined herein to have e.g. a length of “about 1000 nucleotides”, the length may be identical but may also diverge by 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14%, 15%, 16%, 17%, 18%, 19%, 20%. Accordingly, the length may be identical or diverge by 1, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170, 180, 190, 200 nucleotides. Binding agents The inventors have surprisingly found that certain mutations introduced into the CH3 domain (CH3-CH3 interface) of antibodies, such as IgG antibodies, can have an effect on various Fc-mediated effector functions, such as FcgammaRIIa-H activation, FcgammaRIIb activation, FcgammaRIIIa-V, complement- dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) and FcRn binding, despite the fact that the present mutations are located outside the regions known to be involved in binding to the respective effector molecules (Fc receptors or complement components). Immune cells capable of engaging IgG antibodies regularly express different Fc receptors molecules at their surface, which makes approaches that simultaneously modulate the binding to multiple different Fc receptors particularly attractive. Without wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the present CH3 mutations can broadly regulate effector molecule engagement through allosteric modulation of the effector binding region. Accordingly, it is an object of the invention to provide for binding agents having a modified capacity to bind to and / or induce the activation of one or more different effector molecules (e.g. Fc receptors and complement components) through allosteric modulation of the effector binding site. As described above, in a first main aspect, the invention relates to binding agent comprising at least a CH3 domain of a human IgG and a target-binding region, wherein said CH3 domain comprises one or more mutations in the CH3 domain (CH3-CH3 interface), such as at least one of the following amino acid residues: a) R347 or K347; b) V350; c) K351, Y351, D351 or E351; d) K356; e) Q357 or K357; f) E360 or D360; g) K364 or W364; h) W366, L366, K366 or V366; i) D368; j) S370, E370 or A370; k) D392, L392 or E392; l) W394; m) K399, V399 or M399; n) A405 or T405; o) A407 or V407; p) D409, W409 or V409; or q) E439, wherein the numbering is according to the EU index. Thus, the binding agent contains the specified amino acid residue at the specified position of the CH3 domain (for example an arginine (R) at position 347, the original being glutamine (Q)), wherein the position of the CH3 domain is numbered according to the Eu numbering (EU index) (Edelman et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci U SA.1969 May;63(1) :78-85; Kabat et al., Sequences of proteins of immunological interest. 5thEdition 1991 NIH Publication No. 91-3242). It will be clear to the skilled person, that each of the mutations mentioned herein, when described by reference to (human or humanized) IgG1, can also be applied to the corresponding amino acids present in another IgG subclass, such as (human or humanized) IgG2, IgG3 and IgG4, in particular (human) IgG2 and IgG3, e.g. by making an alignment of the respective sequences.

Polynucleotides, host cells and methods for production The invention further relates to a polynucleotide construct, or a kit of polynucleotide constructs, encoding a binding agent according to the invention. Such a polynucleotide constructs may, e.g., be used for in vitro, ex vivo, in situ or in vivo expression of the binding agent, for example the production of the binding agent in a host cell or for administration to a patient for in vivo expression. In order to optimize expression of the binding agent in the cell, the polynucleotide sequence encoding the binding agent may be flanked by a 5’ UTR sequence and / or 3’ UTR sequence. The 5’UTR and / or 3’ UTR may be heterologous with respect to the polynucleotide sequence encoding the binding agent. A UTR or “untranslated region”, as used herein refers to a part of a polynucleotide sequence preceding (5’ UTR) or following (3’ UTR) a coding sequence, such as the polynucleotide sequence encoding the polypeptide, and that is thus not part of the coding sequence and typically not translated. An UTR may be part of a nucleic acid and may comprise elements for controlling gene expression. Further, the polynucleotide sequence encoding the binding agent (the coding sequence or open reading frame “ORF”) may also be optimized for expression in the cell or organism where expression of the binding agent is desired, e.g. in mammalian or avian cells as indicated above, as long as this does not change the amino acid sequence of the encoded binding agent. For example, the codon usage may be adapted toward the preferred codon usage of a particular organism or edited to remove potential unwanted elements, such as splice sites, destabilizing motifs or improve the GC content / index, according to any method known in the art. The formation of an antibody, such as a full-length antibody may require the co-expression of light chain constant and variable domains corresponding to those that are normally found in a wild-type antibody of that isotype. The (isolated) polynucleotide may further comprise an operably-linked promoter sequence capable of driving expression of the operably-linked coding sequence in the target cell or organism or system (e.g., in vitro system) of interest. As will be appreciated by the skilled person, for any of these operable elements, these are to be chosen so as to be functional in the cell or organism where expression of the binding agent is desired (target cell or target organism). In other words, they are suitable for expression in a certain cell type or organism, such as mammalian cells (e.g. human, primates, mouse, rabbit, camelid, and rats) or avian cells, e.g. chicken. They may also be optimized for enhanced protein expression in the target cell or target organism. For example, the (isolated) polynucleotide(s) may be provided in the form of one or more vectors, such as expression vectors. In expression vectors, the polynucleotide sequence encoding the binding agent is typically operably linked to a promoter sequence suitable for expression in a target cell (host cell) or system. Thus, in one embodiment, the promoter sequence is a mammalian promoter sequence, such as a human promoter sequence or a viral promoter sequence. In a further embodiment, wherein said promoter sequence is a bacteriophage promoter sequence or a bacterial promoter sequence. One or more of the (isolated) polynucleotides may be viral vectors. In one embodiment, one or more of the (isolated) polynucleotides is a viral vector selected from the group consisting of an adenovirus-based vector, an adeno-associated virus (AAV) based vector, a retroviral vector, a vaccinia virus-based vector, a modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) based vector, a herpes virus-based vector, a lentiviral vector, or a poxvirus vector. In a further aspect, the invention relates to a cell, such as a recombinant host cell, capable of producing a binding agent according to the invention. Such a cell may for comprise polynucleotide constructs as described herein. In one embodiment, the cell is a mammalian cell, such as a human cell. In one embodiment, the cell is a mammalian cell or cell line, such as a CHO cell line or human epithelial cell, for example a HEK293 cell line. In one embodiment, the polynucleotide is present in episomal form. In another embodiment, the polynucleotide is integrated into the host genome. The skilled person will be aware of methods to provide the polynucleotides(s) encoding the binding agent according to the invention to the cell, e.g. by transfection or transformation, so as to obtain a transgenic or recombinant cell. In a further aspect, the invention relates to a method for producing a binding agent, comprising culturing recombinant host cells according to the invention and allowing production of the binding agent to take place.

Examples Example 1: Design of novel IgG1 CH3:CH3 interface mutations In human IgG1, dimerization of the two heavy-chains in the Fc domain is mainly mediated by the large and tightly packed CH3:CH3 interface, which is comprised of a hydrophobic core in the middle with several charged residue pairs and hydrogen bonds surrounding it (Figure 1 & Table 1). Because of the 2-fold rotational symmetry present in the CH3:CH3 interface, each of these residue pairs is represented twice in the interface. We explored different structure-guided strategies to select potential CH3 interface mutation candidates: (1) swap the charged residue pairs; (2) convert charged residues to hydrophobic residues; (3) hydrophobic residues to paired charged residues (Figure 2). Regarding the design of charged residue pair swaps, all the charged pairs were first clustered into three different clusters: I, K439-E356 and Q437-K360; II, K370-E357 and D399-K409; and III, D399-K392. For cluster I and II, all the paired residues (K439E-E356K, Q437K / R-K360E, E357K-K370E and D399K-K409D) could be swapped without introducing side chain clashes. In cluster III, however, once we switched the D399 and K392 pairs (K392D-D399K), we also combined with K409D (Figure 3). In addition, we also explored converting the charged residue pair E357-K370 to an uncharged residue pair with the E357Q and K370S mutation. The hydrophobic patches were clustered in two groups for converting to charged pairs. Cluster IV consists of L351, T366 and S364. L351 was replaced by Asp and T366 by Lys to create one charged pair option (L351D-T366K), and L351 was replaced with Glu, and S364 with Lys, to create another charged pair option (L351E-S364K) (Figure 4). Furthermore, K392 was replaced with Leu and F405 was replaced with Ala (K392L-F405A). In order to enable the charged residue pairs to hydrophobic residue conversion, it was decided to only mutate the most buried residues to avoid potential development issues. Hence, the main focus was on the E357-K370-S364-K409-D399 interface and the K409V:D399M, K409W:D399V and S364W:K370A mutations were introduced (Figure 5). In addition, the residues T366 and T394 were mutated to Trp, Val or Leu, and the residues F405 and T366 were mutated to Ala or Val (T366W-Y407A, T366L-Y407V, T366V- Y407A, T394W-F405A) for fine tuning steric complementarity of the CH3 dimer interface.

IgG concentraƟon of cell culture samples was quanƟfied using Bio-Layer Interferometry using Protein A biosensors with the Octet QK (FortéBio). Samples were diluted 4-fold and 20-fold in Sample Diluent (FortéBio). The iniƟal binding rate of each sample was measured using a read Ɵme of 60 seconds and a shaking speed of 200 rpm. The concentraƟon was inferred by reference to a standard curve.10 mM glycine pH 1.0 was used as a regeneraƟon soluƟon. Protein A or protein G purificaƟons were used to purify anƟbodies or anƟbody mixtures from cellular materials for use in biochemical experiments or subsequent chromatography experiments. (isolated) anƟbodies were bulk purified by protein A or protein G affinity chromatography.

AlternaƟvely, eluted fracƟons were pooled and dialyzed into PBS using 10 kDa molecular-weight cut-off Slide-A-Lyzer carriages (Cat # 87730, ThermoFisher) of the appropriate size. AŌer buffer exchange, samples were sterilefiltered over 0.2 µm dead-endfilters (Cat # 431219, Corning). ConcentraƟon of the purified IgGs was determined by absorbance at 280 nm. Purified proteins were analyzed by CE-SDS, HP-SEC and mass spectrometry. Purified anƟbodies were stored at 2- 8°C. HP-SEC analysis was performed using a Waters Alliance 2795 separaƟon module (Waters) equipped with a Waters 2487 dual λ absorbance detector (Waters), using a TSK column (G3000SWxl; Tosoh Biosciences, Cat # TOYO08541) and a TSK-gel SWxl guard column (Tosoh Biosciences, Cat #TOYO08543).

Results were processed using Empower 3 soŌware and expressed per peak as percentage of total peak height. A summary of the results is shown in Table 4.

The core structure of this N-linked glycan is comprised of N-Acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) and mannose residues. Further extension can take place with galactose, sialic acid, core fucosylaƟon, and bisecƟng GlcNAc (Vidarsson et al., 2014, Front. Immunology Oct 20;5:520), resulƟng in heterogeneously glycosylated IgG1 molecules at N297. Glycans play an important role in protein conformaƟon, stability, and biological funcƟon (Costa et al., Crit Rev Biotechnol 34(4): 281-99 (2014)). Therefore, glycosylaƟon changes in IgG1 molecules are unwanted as the efficacy and pharmacokineƟc properƟes may be impacted. Furthermore, glycan heterogeneity needs to be analyzed and controlled during manufacturing, and charged glycans may further increase the complexity of charge- based analyƟcal assays such as imaged capillary isoelectric focusing (iCIEF) that are used for release tesƟng or characterizaƟon. Here, the effect of the introducƟon of CH3 interface mutaƟons on N-linked glycosylaƟon of IgG molecules was invesƟgated. To this end, N-linked glycan profiling was performed on variants of the IgG1-VIII and IgG1-IX anƟbodies (Table 2), as well as on IgG1 Fc domains (FcG1), with either a wild-type IgG1 Fc domain or an Fc domain containing CH3 interface mutaƟons. N-linked glycan profiling was performed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) using an Orbitrap Eclipse mass spectrometer (ThermoFisher). IdenƟficaƟon and relaƟve quanƟtaƟon of the N- linked glycosylaƟon was performed on the reduced glycosylated anƟbody heavy chain. Given the known primary amino acid sequence of the heavy chain, the mass idenƟty of the aƩached N-linked glycans could be idenƟfied. Briefly, anƟbody samples were diluted to 200 µg / mL in Milli-Q to a total volume of 60 µL. Next, 1 µL 1 M Dithiothreitol (DTT; Sigma, Cat # D9163) was added to 60 µL sample and incubated for 15 min at 37°C. Subsequently, the sample was transferred to a glass Qsert vial (Water, Cat # 186001128c) and placed into the LC-MS.2 µL sample was injected onto the LC column and the anƟbody was eluted using a mobile phase A (Formic acid 0.1% in Water ULC / MS - CC / SFC [Bio Solve, Cat #0023244101BS]) – mobile phase B (0.1% Formic Acid in Acetonitrile ULC / MS - CC / SFC [Bio Solve, Cat # 0001934101BS]) gradient from 20% (B) to 50% (B) in 4.5 min at 0.12 mL / minflow rate. The obtained raw m / z spectra were deconvoluted with Genedata Expressionist Refiner MS soŌware (Genedata). As a result, the deconvoluted spectra provided reduced glycosylated heavy chain masses. The obtained peak intensiƟes (aŌer spectral deconvoluƟon) were used to calculate the abundances of individual N-linked glycans (e.g., G0F, G1F, G2F, etc.) relaƟve to the total populaƟon of oligosaccharides. Figure 7 shows schemaƟc representaƟons of the detected glycan species. N-linked glycan profiling of IgG1-VIII CH3 interface variants revealed disƟnct paƩerns in the relaƟve abundance of agalactosylated (G0F), digalactosylated (G2F), and high-mannose (Man5) glycan species compared to the parental IgG1-VIII. Variants REVTW, QKDS, KDKEKE, KEKEKDE, L351D-KKE, KVWE, and DKKE exhibited G0F and G2F levels comparable to those of IgG1-VIII (55.2% G0F; 3.1% G2F) (Table 5A). In contrast, variants KEVW, KEKD, KDKD, DKDKD, KWDKAD, WADK, KDEK, KDVWE, VYLLWAV, and KKD displayed reduced G0F abundance (ranging from 34.3% to 44.8%) and increased G2F abundance (ranging from 4.6% to 9.9%) relaƟve to IgG1-VIII (Table 5A). AddiƟonally, variants REVTW, QKDS, KEKD, KDKD, DKDKD, KWDKAD, KDEK, KDVWE, and VYLLWAV exhibited a modest increase in Man5 abundance (6.7% to 8.6%) compared to IgG1-VIII (5.5%), while the KKD variant showed a decreased Man5 level (3.4%) (Table 5A). The core fucose of the conserved N-linked glycan modulates the affinity of the Fc region for FcgRIIIa / b, whereby afucosylated IgG exhibits higher affinity binding, resulƟng in augmented ADCC in vitro and in vivo [Falconer et al. (2018) ACS Chem Biol 13:2179; Shinkawa et al. (2003) J Biol Chem 278:3466]. The N-linked glycan analysis revealed that the majority of IgG1-VIII anƟbody variants containing CH3 interface mutaƟons did not differ in their relaƟve abundance of fucosylaƟon (Figure 8A), compared to IgG1-VIII wild type. However, IgG1-VIII-KWDKAD showed decreased fucosylaƟon (Figure 8A; >5% decrease). Comparing the fucosylaƟon profiles of IgG1-VIII, IgG1-IX, and IgG1 Fc domain (FcG1) variants, fucosylaƟon was consistently reduced compared to wild-type controls for variants harboring the REVTW, KEKD, KWDKAD, WADK, VYLLWAV, and RDVMAV mutaƟons, while the effects varied per tested anƟbody clone or construct for the other mutaƟons (Table 5B). IgG-Fc galactosylaƟon has been proposed to promote C1q binding and complement acƟvity, by enhancing the potenƟal of IgG1 hexamerizaƟon [van Osch et al. (2021) J Immunol.207:1545]. The N-linked glycan analysis revealed that the introducƟon of CH3 interface mutaƟons to IgG1-VIII anƟbody variants resulted in variable increases in relaƟve abundance of galactosylaƟon compared to IgG1-VIII wild-type (Figure 8B). Comparing galactosylaƟon profiles detected on IgG1-VIII, IgG1-IX, and FcG1 variants, galactosylaƟon was increased for all IgG1-VIII variants as compared to wild-type IgG1-VIII, while mixed results were observed for IgG1-IX and FcG1 variants, indicaƟng clone-dependent effects (Table 5C). Both in the IgG1-IX and FcG1 background, variants harboring the QKDS, KEKD, KDKD, DKDKD, KWDKAD, WADK, KVWE, KDVWE, or KKD mutaƟons consistently showed an increased galactosylaƟon abundance, while variants harboring the KEKEKDE, L351D-KKE, KDEK, and DKKE mutaƟons showed reduced galactosylaƟon abundance both in IgG1-IX and FcG1 background. In parƟcular, increased galactosylaƟon abundance was observed on variants harboring the KEKD or KDKD mutaƟons (KEKD: 44.4 - 82.2% increase in both clones and FcG1; KDKD: 55.3- 81.9% increase in both clones and FcG1). The combined mannosylaƟon profile shows that the mannosylaƟon abundance is consistently increased on variants of IgG1-VIII, IgG1-IX, and FcG1 containing the mutaƟons REVTW, QKDS, DKDKD, KWDKAD, WADK, VYLLWAV, and RDVMAV, while a consistent reducƟon of mannosylaƟon abundance was observed for variants KEVW, KDKEKE and KDKEKE (Table 5D). Despite lower levels of sialylaƟon abundance as compared with other forms of glycosylaƟon, a consistent increase in sialylaƟon abundance was observed for IgG1-VIII, IgG1-IX, and FcG1 containing the KEKD or KDKD mutaƟons (relaƟvely strong enhancement in all backgrounds), or L351D-KKE, DKDKD, KWDKAD, WADK, KDEK, or RDVMAV mutaƟons (relaƟvely mild enhancement) (Table 5E). These data show that introducƟon of certain CH3 interfaces could modulate the relaƟve abundance of N- linked glycans, whereas other CH3 interface mutaƟons did not consistently change the relaƟve abundance of N-linked glycans.

The iTope™ software uses a Machine Learning algorithm to predict overlapping 9-mer peptide binding specificities across 46 major HLA-DR, DP and DQ isotypes. The selected alleles represent the most common HLA class II alleles found worldwide, with no weighing attributed to those found most prevalent in any particular ethnic population. By comparing these predictions to the predictions for MHC class II binding sequences present in the germline human IgG1(m)f reference sequence, it’s possible to assess the “potential risk” of MHC class II binding. Individual peptides, sequentially spanning the whole sequence, are given a binding score from 0 to 3 for each allotype, and those scores are added together for all HLA-DR, DP, DQ alleles to provide an overall risk score (‘Position Risk Score’). Peptides are considered weak, medium or strong promiscuous MHC class II binders when their ‘Position Risk Scores’ reach 1-2, 3-5 or 6+, respectively. The ‘Total Score’ for the test protein is calculated by adding the ‘Position Risk Scores’ obtained for all individual peptides. The highest ‘Position Risk Score’ is also provided to inform the presence of strong binders and / or highly promiscuous peptides (‘Hotspot Max’).9-mer peptides fully homologous to sequences from the human proteome are typically excluded from the analysis, since germline sequences are unlikely to have immunogenic potential in healthy individuals due to T-cell tolerance. Promiscuous binding peptides, i.e., with a ‘Position Risk Score’ >0, are interrogated against the TCED™ database in order to identify any high sequence homology with >10,000 peptides from unrelated proteins and antibodies that stimulated T cell responses in previous ex vivo EpiScreen™ studies (T-cell epitopes; Bryson et al., 2010, BioDrugs 24(1), pp.1–8). The database is interrogated by a BLAST search to confirm whether peptides with predicted promiscuous moderate or high affinity are also present in the database. iTope™ analysis identified potentially promiscuously binding peptides for IgG constant HC regions containing the CH3 interface mutations listed in Table A. For the variants for which promiscuously binding peptides were identified, the analysis showed a range of different calculated scores, where the QKDS mutations exhibited the lowest predicted immunogenicity score and RRDVMAV had the highest. However, the predicted scores for all variants were within a range associated with previously tested human therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (Abzena; internal data). In addition, when interrogating these sequences against the TCED™ database, no shared homology to known T-cell epitopes were identified. Therefore, based on this analysis, there is no apparent increased risk of clinical immunogenicity for antibodies harboring CH3 domain mutations promoting mutually exclusive homodimerization interfaces. Example 6: Biochemical stability of antibody variants containing CH3 interface mutations Protein stability characterisƟcs of variants of IgG1-VIII containing CH3 interface mutaƟons were studied using biochemical assays and analyƟcal methods. Dynamic light scaƩering (DLS) was performed to determine the particle size of the samples before Static Light Scattering (SLS) and differenƟal scanning fluorimetry (DSF) were applied to compare the temperature-dependent onset of aggregaƟon, and protein unfolding, respecƟvely. Results from these assays for CH3 interface mutants were compared to those of corresponding wild-type (WT) anƟbodies to determine whether the introducƟon of the indicated CH3 interface mutaƟons impacted protein stability. Samples of variants of anƟbody clone VIII targeƟng human anƟgen were normalized at 1 mg / mL in PBS pH 7.4 and centrifuged for 5 min at 15000×g.9 µL of each antibody variant was analyzed with DLS, SLS and DSF using an Uncle instrument (Unchained Labs) with Uncle Client Software. Samples were applied in triplicate in Uni’s (Unchained Labs, Cat # 201-1010). AnƟbody variants contained the mutaƟons as presented in Table A. DLS analysis was performed to assess the quality of the samples at the initial temperature using 5 acquisitions at an acquisition time of 5 seconds at 25ºC. A refractive index of 1.3334 and a viscosity of 1.0219 cP were used for PBS buffer at 20 °C (standard values supplied in the Uncle Client software). The standard values were corrected for the actual temperature at the measurement (~25º). Z-average diameters were reported. SLS analysis was performed to assess the propensity of the anƟbody variants menƟoned above to aggregate in soluƟon as a measure of colloidal stability. Thermal scan measurements were performed with a conƟnuously increasing temperature from 25ºC to 95ºC (0.5 °C increase / min) throughout the experiment. Taggis determined by the Uncle Client software as the temperature at which the particle size starts to increase using the SLS 266 read-out. ConformaƟonal protein stability was assessed using DSF. The Uncle is capable of detecting changes in intrinsic fluorescence caused by exposure of tryptophane, tyrosine and phenylalanine due to protein unfolding. Thermal scan measurements were performed with a continuously increasing temperature from 25ºC to 95ºC (0.5 °C increase / min) throughout the experiment. Tmvalues are reported by the Uncle Client software as the infliction points in the Ratio (350 / 330 nm) versus temperature graphs, using the first derivative with exception of mutant IgG1-VIII-WADK for which the Peak Height versus temperature graph was used as for this mutant no infliction points were observed in the Ratio 350 / 330 graph. All results are summarized in Table 6. DLS analysis showed that the average parƟcle size (radius) at 25 °C for wild-type IgG1-VIII and variants thereof containing the CH3 interface mutaƟons were comparable, while SLS analysis showed similar Taggfor wild-type IgG1-VIII and variants. The Tmas determined through DSF for IgG1-VIII-WT and IgG1-VIII CH3 interface mutants REVTW, KEVW, QKDS, WADK, KDEK, KVWE, DKKE, KDVWE and VYLLWAV were highly comparable while the Tmfor IgG1-VIII CH3 interface mutants KDKEKE, KEKEKDE, L351D-KKE, KEKD, KDKD, DKDKD, KWDKAD and KKD were 4.6°C (for KWDKAD) to 8.1°C (for L351- KKE) lower, but sƟll within an acceptable range (Table 6). Overall, it was concluded that the tested IgG1 variants containing CH3 interface demonstrated an overall comparable propensity to aggregate and protein stability profile. The acquired data did not reveal any concerns regarding developability for any of the tested wild-type and mutated variants of IgG1-VIII.

The stability of IgG1-VIII-WT was compared to variants thereof containing CH3 interface mutaƟons. Samples were formulated in PBS pH 7.4 at a concentraƟon of ~20 mg / mL with the excepƟon of IgG1-VIII-DKDKD that was at a concentraƟon of 13 mg / mL. AnƟbody variants contained the mutaƟons as presented in Table A. Spectrophotometry analysis was performed on a Stunner (Unchained Labs), according to the manufacturer’s instrucƟons. Both the absorbance at 280 nm as a surrogate for protein concentraƟon, and absorbance at 350 nm as a surrogate for protein aggregaƟon, were measured. HP-SEC analysis was performed using an Acquity Arc system separaƟon module (Waters) equipped with a Waters 2489 dual λ absorbance detector (Waters), using a TSK column (G3000SWxl; Tosoh Biosciences, Cat # TOYO08541) and a TSK-gel SWxl guard column (Tosoh Biosciences, Cat #TOYO08543). The samples (~5 mg / mL in PBS pH 7.4) were run at 1 mL / min using mobile phase 0.1 M sodium sulfate (Na2SO4, Sigma- Aldrich, Cat # 71958) / 0.1 M sodium phosphate pH 6.8 (NaH2PO4, Sigma-Aldrich Cat # 17844 / Na2HPO4.2H2O, Sigma-Aldrich Cat # 71633). Results were processed using Empower 3 soŌware and expressed per peak as percentage of total peak height. CE-SDS was performed using a LabChip®GXII Touch (Perkin Elmer, Cat # CLS138160) on a HT Protein Express LabChip (Perkin Elmer, Cat # 760499) using the HT Protein Express Reagent kit (Perkin Elmer, Cat # CLS960008). For the analysis under non-reducing condiƟons, samples were diluted 20 Ɵmes to ~1 mg / mL in PBS pH 7.4 and samples were prepared by 2 µL diluted sample + 7 µL HT Protein Express Sample Buffer (provided in kit) + 35 µL MilliQ water. For the analysis under reducing condiƟons, samples were diluted 20 Ɵmes to ~1 mg / mL in PBS pH 7.4 and samples were prepared by 2 µL diluted sample + 7 µL denaturing soluƟon + 35 µL MilliQ water. Samples were prepared in FrameStar 96-well Skirted PCR plates (Cat # 4TI- 0960). Samples were denatured by incubaƟon at 70°C for 3 minutes. The chip was prepared according to manufacturer’s instrucƟons and the samples were run with the HT anƟbody analysis 200 high sensiƟvity seƫngs. Protein purity (%) was analyzed using the LabChip GXII soŌware V5.3.2115.0. All results are summarized in Tables 7 (Stunner), 8 (HP-SEC) and 9 (CE-SDS). Absorbance measurements at 280 nm and 350 nm of the wild-type IgG1-VIII anƟbody and variants thereof containing CH3 interface mutaƟons did not reveal any major differences in protein concentraƟon or aggregaƟon for samples stored at 40 °C for 1 month, as compared to samples stored at 2-8 °C for 1 month (Table 7). Gain of concentraƟon for samples stored at 40 °C can be explained by buffer evaporaƟon at this temperature during the Ɵme of incubaƟon. No impact of the CH3 interface mutaƟons were observed on protein concentraƟon or aggregaƟon, as compared to the WT reference anƟbodies (Table 7). HP-SEC analysis revealed a significant increase in the percentage of mulƟmers (exceeding 5%) present in the IgG1-VIII-KEKEKDE, L351-KKE, KDKD, DKDKD samples aŌer 1 month of storage at 40°C (Table 8). No significant differences in the percentages of mulƟmericity, monomericity or degradaƟon were observed for other variants of IgG1-VIII, as compared to the WT control anƟbodies. The percentage of intact protein detected by CE-SDS served as a measure for protein integrity and degradaƟon in response to the storage at 40°C for 1 month. For all anƟbodies tested, with the excepƟon of IgG1-VIII-WT and KDVWE, the percentage of intact IgG is reduced aŌer 1 month of storage at 40°C, as observed under non-reducing condiƟons (Table 9). Using reducing condiƟons, no differences were observed between WT anƟbodies and the mutated variants thereof. The percentages of L chain remained stable for all tested variants upon 1 month of storage at 40°C, with a minor decrease in the percentage of H chain was observed for most tested variants. In conclusion, WT anƟbodies and variants thereof containing CH3 interface mutaƟons generally demonstrate a comparable stability profile upon exposure to 40°C for 1 month with the excepƟon of IgG1- VIII-KEKEKDE, L351-KKE, KDKD, DKDKD.

Specifically, the effect of introducing various CH3 interface mutaƟons on CDC inducƟon in Daudi and Raji cells was measured. Daudi cells (ATCC, Cat # CCL-213) and Raji cells (ATCC, Cat # CCL-86) in assay medium (RPMI-1640 [Gibco, cat. no. A10491] supplemented with 0.2% bovine serum albumin [BSA; Roche, Cat # 10735086001]) were plated in polystyrene white opaque 96-well plates (10,000 cells / well; Perkin Elmer, Cat # 6007680) and incubated with concentraƟon series of anƟbodies (final concentraƟon of 9.16 × 10-4to 60.0 μg / mL in 4- fold diluƟon steps) in a total volume of 80 μL for 15 min on a shaker at RT. Next, 20 μL normal human serum (NHS;final concentraƟon of 20%; Sanquin) was added as a source of complement and incubated at 37°C for 45 min. AŌer incubaƟon, cell viability was assessed using the CellTiter-Glo®Luminescent Cell Viability Assay (Promega, Cat # G7572), according to the manufacturer’s instrucƟons. Briefly, kit-provided CellTiter-Glo®reagent was added in a 1:10 raƟo (v / v) to the cells and the mixture was incubated for 30 min at RT. Luminescence was then measured by an Envision plate reader (Perkin Elmer) and normalized to the luminescence measured for cells incubated with 1% (v / v) Triton X-100 (represenƟng total lysis; Sigma, Cat # T8787). The normalized data, expressed as percentage, were analyzed using best-fit values of a non- linear dose-responsefit using log-transformed concentraƟons in GraphPad Prism, and the EC50value as well as the area under the dose-response curves (AUC) of three experimental replicates was calculated. AUC values are reported relaƟve to the AUC calculated for non-binding control anƟbody IgG1-b12 (set to 0%) and to posiƟve control anƟbodies IgG1-VIII-WT or IgG1-II-E430G (SEQ ID No: 23; set to 100%). RelaƟve AUC values in combinaƟon with EC50values were used to compare CDC acƟvity of CH3 interface mutaƟon- containing anƟbodies with that of their corresponding anƟbody without CH3 interface mutaƟons. For all IgG1-VIII anƟbody variants tested, CDC inducƟon in Raji cells was consistent with that in Daudi cells (Figure 9A and 9B, respecƟvely). PosiƟve control anƟbody IgG1-VIII-E430G efficiently induced CDC, either measured as AUC or EC50(Figure 9, Table 10). While IgG1-VIII-WT induced CDC (Figure 9), no CDC acƟvity was observed for IgG1-II-WT on either Raji (Figure 10A) or Daudi cells (Figure 10B). IgG1-II-WT is a type II CD20 mAb, which is ineffecƟve in CDC inducƟon. The majority of IgG1-VIII anƟbody variants containing CH3 interface mutaƟons had enhanced CDC acƟvity, as evidenced by a higher AUC and / or a lower EC50, while introducƟon of other mutaƟons (i.e. REVTW, KEKEKDE) did not affect CDC acƟvity (Figure 9A, Table 10). Similarly, IgG1-II anƟbody variants containing certain CH3 interface mutaƟons (i.e. KEKD, KDKD, KWDKAD) had enhanced CDC acƟvity, as evidenced by a higher AUC and / or a lower EC50, while introducƟon of other mutaƟons (i.e. REVTW, QKDS, VYLLWAV, KKD) did not affect CDC acƟvity (Figure 10, Table 10). In summary, it was observed that only certain CH3 interface mutaƟons were able to enhance the CDC acƟvity of anƟ-CD20 anƟbodies.

AcƟvaƟon of FcγR-mediated signaling was quanƟfied in Promega bioluminescent reporter assays using Raji cells (ATCC, Cat # CCL-86) as target cells and Jurkat human T cells engineered to stably express human FcγRI (Promega, Cat # GA133A), FcγRIIb (Promega, Cat # CS1781E01) or the high affinity allotype variant of human FcγRIIa (FcγRIIa-H131; Promega, Cat # G988A) or of human FcγRIIIa (FcγRIIIa-V158; Promega, Cat # G701A) and to express a nuclear factor of acƟvated T cells (NFAT)-response element driving expression offirefly luciferase as effector cells. Raji cells were seeded in white opaque 384-well plates (5.000 cells / well; Perkin Elmer, Cat # 6007680) in assay buffer (RPMI 1640 [Promega, Cat # G7080] supplemented with 4% [v / v] Low IgG Serum [Promega, Cat # G711A]) and preincubated with anƟbody concentraƟon series (final concentraƟon of 3.9×10-9to 100 µg / mL in 20-fold diluƟon steps) for 15 min at 37°C / 5% CO2in a total volume of 20 µL. Next, effector cells in assay buffer were added to the Raji cell- anƟbody mixture according to the manufacture...
