Description

An antibody-drug conjugate and preparation method and use thereof TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of biological medicine, in particular, to an antibody-drug conjugate and preparation method and use thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Cytotoxin, linker and conjugate of the two can be loaded on the targeting molecule including antibody, in the form of antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) targeted delivery to target cells such as cancer cells and other pathological state cells, and then play a killing role to achieve the purpose of treatment.

[0003] There are many small molecules with cytotoxicity for antibody-drug conjugates in the prior art, among which the most notable are camptothecin derivatives, including SN-38, DXD, CPT-11, irinotecan, 9-nitrocamptothecin, 10-hydroxycamptothecin and the like. They have anti-tumor effect by inhibiting topoisomerase I. At present, several camptothecin drugs have been approved for marketing for tumor treatment.

[0004] Camptothecin drugs or derivatives often have hematotoxicity caused by bone marrow suppression, such as neutropenia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia and the like, and gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and the like. Clinical studies have found that measures to improve the safety and effectiveness of camptothecin compounds include improving their pharmacokinetic properties, adjusting activity, reducing dosage or using conjugates to form antibody-drug conjugates with antibodies. Therefore, there is still a high clinical demand and application value for developing novel camptothecin compounds and their conjugates that can improve effectiveness and safety problems.

[0269] Abbreviations

[0270] Targeting unit (Ab)

[0271] As used herein, the term "Ab" is a targeting unit, i.e., a polypeptide, antibody, antigen binding fragment, or non-antibody targeting unit that binds to a target. A non-antibody targeting unit can also be referred to as a non-antibody scaffold.

[0272] In some embodiments, the targeting unit specifically binds to a target molecule. As used herein, "specifically binds" refers to the ability of a targeting unit described herein (e.g., an antibody or portion thereof) to bind to a target with a KDof 10 -5 M (10,000 nM) or less, e.g., 10 -6 M, 10 -7 M, 10 -8 M, 10 -9 M, 10 -10 M, 10 -11 M, 10 -12 M or less.

[0273] As used herein, the term "antibody" or "immunoglobulin" refers to immunoglobulin molecules and immunologically active portions of immunoglobulin molecules, i.e., molecules that contain an antigen binding site that specifically binds an antigen of interest, which are heterotetrameric glycoproteins of about 150,000 daltons, having the same structural characteristics, consisting of two identical light (L) chains and two identical heavy (H) chains. The light chains are linked to the heavy chains by one covalent disulfide bond, while the number of disulfide bonds between the heavy chains differs depending on the immunoglobulin isotype. Each heavy and light chain also has regularly spaced intrachain disulfide bridges.

[0274] Each heavy chain has at one end a variable region (VH) followed by a number of constant regions. The heavy chain constant regions can include three domains, CH1, CH2 and CH3, and optionally a fourth domain, CH4. Each light chain has at one end a variable region (VL) and at its other end a constant region. The light chain constant region is a CL domain. The VHand VLregions can be further subdivided into regions of hypervariability, termed complementarity determining regions (CDR), interspersed with regions that are more conserved, termed framework regions (FR). Each VHand VLthus provides three CDRs and four FRs, arranged from amino-terminus to carboxy-terminus in the following order: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, and FR4. This structure for the variable region is well known in the art.

[0275] As used herein, the term "antigen binding fragment" refers to a portion of an antibody that has the VHand / or VLsequences of an antibody or CDRs of an antibody and that specifically binds an antigen of interest. Examples of antigen binding fragments include Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, Fv, scFv, disulfide linked Fv, single domain antibody (also known as VHH, VNAR, sdAb or nanobody), or diabody.

[0276] As used herein, the terms Fab, F(ab')2, and Fv refer to the following:

[0277] (i) Fab is a monovalent fragment consisting of a VL, a VH, a CL, and a CH1 domain;

[0278] (ii) F(ab')2 is a bivalent fragment comprising two Fab fragments that are linked to each other by disulfide bonds under the hinge region; and

[0279] (iii) Fv consisting of a VL and a VH domain.

[0280] Although the two domains of the Fv fragment, i.e., VL and VH, are coded for by separate coding regions, they can also be linked to each other using a synthetic linker, e.g., a poly-G4S amino acid sequence, such that they can be prepared as a single protein chain, where the VL and VH regions combine to form a monovalent molecule (called single chain Fv or scFv). The term "antigen binding fragment" also includes such single chain antibodies. Other forms of single chain antibodies, such as "diabodies" are also included herein.

[0281] Diabodies are bivalent, bispecific antibodies in which VHand VLregions are expressed on a single polypeptide chain, but using a linker that is too short to allow for pairing between the two domains on the same chain, thereby forcing the domains to pair with complementary domains of another chain and creating two antigen binding sites.

[0282] A single-domain antibody is an antigen-binding fragment of an antibody comprising a single monomeric variable antibody region. Single-domain antibodies can be derived from the variable region of an antibody heavy chain of a camelid (e.g., a nanobody or VHH moiety). In addition, the term single-domain antibody includes a human articular heavy chain variable domain (AVH) or a VNAR moiety derived from a shark.

[0283] Techniques for producing single-domain antibodies (e.g., DABs or VHHs) are known in the art. Single-domain antibodies can be obtained from, for example, a camel, a llama, or an alpaca by standard immunization techniques. VHHs can have potent antigen-binding ability and can interact with novel epitopes that are inaccessible to conventional VH-VL pairs. Llama serum IgG contains only about 50% of the camelid heavy chain-only IgG antibodies (HCAbs). A llama can be immunized with an antigen, and VHHs that bind to and neutralize the target antigen can be isolated. PCR primers that amplify llama VHH-encoding sequences have been identified and can be used to construct llama VHH phage display libraries, which can be used to isolate antibody fragments by standard biopanning techniques well known in the art.

[0284] In some embodiments, the targeting unit is an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof is a bispecific or multispecific binding agent. Bispecific and multispecific antibodies include the following: scFvl-ScFv2, ScFvl2-Fc-scFv22, IgG-scFv, DVD-Ig, triomab / quadroma, two-in-one IgG, scFv2-Fc, TandAb, and scFv-HSA-scFv.

[0285] In some embodiments, the IgG-scFv is IgG(H)-scFv, scFv-(H)IgG, IgG(L)-scFv, svFc-(L)IgG, 2scFV-IgG, or IgG-2scFv.

[0286] In some embodiments, the targeting unit is a cancer-associated antigen, such as ADAM9, Trop-2, EGFR, CD19, CD20, CD30, CD33, CD38, CA125, MUC-1, PD-1, prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), CD44 surface adhesion molecule, mesothelin (MLSN), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), EGFRvIII, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR2), high molecular weight melanoma-associated antigen (HMW-MAA), MAGE-A1, IL-13R-a2, GD2, lp19q, ABL1, AKT1, ALK, APC, AR, ATM, BRAF, BRCA1, BRCA2, cKIT, cMET, CSF1R, CTNNB1, FGFR1, FGFR2, FLT3, GNA11, GNAQ, GNAS, HRAS, IDH1, IDH2, JAK2, KDR (VEGFR2), KRAS, MGMT, MGMT-Me, MLH1, MPL, NOTCH1, NRAS, PDGFRA, Pgp, PIK3CA, PR, PTEN, RET, RRM1, SMO, SPARC, TLE3, TOP2A, TOPO1, TP53, TS, TUBB3, VHL, CDH1, ERBB4, FBXW7, HNF1A, JAK3, NPM1, PTPN11, RB1, SMAD4, SMARCB1, STK1, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2, ROS1, ERCC1, 5T4 (TPBG), B7-H3, CCR7, CD105, CD22, CD46, CD47, CD56, CD70, CD71, CD79b, CDH6, CLDN6, CLDN18.2, CLEC12A, DLL3, DR5, ERBB3 (HER3), EPCAM, FOLR1, IGF1R, IL2RA (CD25), IL3RA, ITGB6, LIV-1, LRRC15, mesothelin (MSLN), NaPi2b (SLC34A2), Nectin-4, PTK7, ROR1, SEZ6, SLC44A4, SLITRK6, tissue factor (TF), TROP2, or B7-H4.

[0287] According to the present application, the terms “cancer-associated antigen”, “tumor antigen”, “tumor-expressed antigen”, “cancer antigen”, “cancer-associated antigen”, and “cancer-expressed antigen” are equivalent and used interchangeably herein.

[0288] In some embodiments, the targeting unit specifically binds to a target, e.g., ADAM9, Trop-2, EGFR, CD19, CD20, CD30, CD33, CD70, LIV-1, or EGFRv3.

[0289] In some embodiments, non-limiting examples of monoclonal antibodies include rituximab, trastuzumab, pertuzumab, bevacizumab, ranibizumab, cetuximab, alemtuzumab, panitumumab, ibritumomab, tositumomab, ipilimumab, zalutumumab, daratumumab, fetuzumab, ramucirumab, galiximab, fezakinumab, ocrelizumab, ofatumumab, CD antibody 2F2 (HuMax-CD20), 7D8, IgM 2C6, IgG 12C6, 1 IB8, B1, 2H7, LT20, 1FS, or AT80, dalizumab, and anti-LHRH receptor antibodies, e.g., clones A9E4, F1G4, AT2G7, GNRH03, GNRHR2, etc., which can be used, inter alia, with the conjugates according to the present application.

[0290] In some embodiments, the targeting unit is a non-antibody scaffold. In some embodiments, the targeting unit is a non-antibody protein scaffold. Such non-antibody scaffolds include, e.g., Affibodies, Affilins, Anticalins, Atrimers, Avimers, bicyclic peptides, Cys-knots, DARPins, FN3 scaffolds (e.g., Adnectins, Centyrins, Pronectins, and Tn3), Fynomers, Kunitz domains, and OBodies. Such non-antibody protein scaffolds include, e.g., Affibodies, Affilins, Anticalins, Atrimers, Avimers, bicyclic peptides, Cys-knots, DARPins, FN3 scaffolds (e.g., Adnectins, Centyrins, Pronectins, and Tn3), Fynomers, Kunitz domains, and OBodies.

[0291] Non-antibody scaffolds can be considered to belong to two structural classes, domain-sized constructs (in the range of 6 to 20 kDa) and constrained peptides (in the range of 2 to 4 kDa). Domain-sized non-antibody scaffolds include, but are not limited to, affibodies, affilins, anticalins, atrimers, DARPins, FN3 scaffolds (such as adnectins and centyrins), fynomers, Kunitz domains, pronectins, and OBodies. Peptide-sized non-antibody scaffolds include, for example, Avimers, bicyclic peptides, and cysteine knots. Non-antibody protein scaffolds can be considered to belong to two structural classes, domain-sized constructs (in the range of 6 to 20 kDa) and constrained peptides (in the range of 2 to 4 kDa). Domain-sized non-antibody scaffolds include, but are not limited to, affibodies, affilins, anticalins, atrimers, DARPins, FN3 scaffolds (such as adnectins and centyrins), fynomers, Kunitz domains, pronectins, and OBodies. Peptide-sized non-antibody scaffolds include, but are not limited to, for example, Avimers, bicyclic peptides, and cysteine knots.

[0292] Advantages of using non-antibody scaffolds include increased affinity, target neutralization, and stability. Various non-antibody scaffolds can also overcome some of the limitations of antibody scaffolds, such as in tissue penetration, smaller size, and thermal stability. Some non-antibody scaffolds can also be easier to engineer, such as when bispecific constructs are desired, without the potential for light chain binding issues. Methods of engineering constructs on non-antibody scaffolds are known to those of ordinary skill in the art and thus, in some embodiments, the targeting unit can comprise a non-antibody scaffold.

[0293] Accordingly, in some embodiments, the targeting unit can comprise a non-antibody scaffold protein. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, in some embodiments, the targeting unit can comprise, for example, an adnectin scaffold or a moiety derived from the tenth fibronectin type III domain of human (10Fn3); an anticalin scaffold derived from human lipocalin (e.g., those described in, e.g., WO2015 / 104406); an avimer scaffold or protein fragment derived from the A domain of low-density lipoprotein-related protein (LRP) and / or very low-density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR); a fynomer scaffold or moiety of the SH3 domain of FYN tyrosine kinase; a kunitz domain scaffold or moiety of a Kunitz-type protease inhibitor, such as human pancreatic trypsin inhibitor, aprotinin (bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor), amyloid precursor protein in Alzheimer’s, and tissue factor pathway inhibitor; a knottin scaffold (cysteine-knot miniprotein), such as scaffolds based on trypsin inhibitors from E. coli; an affibody scaffold or all or part of the Z domain of staphylococcal protein A; a beta-Hairpin analog scaffold; an ankyrin repeat protein (DARPin) scaffold designed based on ankyrin repeat (AR) proteins or artificial protein scaffolds; or any scaffold derived from or based on human transferrin, human CTLA-4, human crystallin, and human ubiquitin. For example, the binding site of human transferrin for human transferrin receptor can be diversified to generate a diverse library of transferrin variants, some of which have acquired affinity for different antigens. The portion of human transferrin not involved in binding the receptor is left unchanged and serves as a scaffold, like the framework regions of an antibody, to provide the variant binding site.

In some embodiments, the targeting unit is an anti-TROP-2 antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof that specifically binds TROP-2.

[0310] Drug

[0311] As used herein, the terms "drug", "toxin", "cytotoxin", "cytotoxic drug" and "payload" are used interchangeably to refer to a chemical molecule that has a strong destructive effect on the normal growth of tumor cells. The cytotoxic drug can kill tumor cells at a sufficiently high concentration. The "cytotoxic drug" can include toxins such as small molecule toxins or enzymatically active toxins of bacterial, fungal, plant or animal origin, radioisotopes (e.g. At211, I131, I125, Y90, Re18, Rel88, Sm153, Bi212, p32 or Lu radioisotopes), toxic drugs, chemotherapeutic drugs, antibiotics and nucleolytic enzymes, for example, can be toxic drugs including but not limited to camptothecin derivatives.

[0312] Camptothecin is a pentacyclic parent nucleus compound isolated from the plant Camptotheca acuminata, which is composed of quinoline ring AB, pyrrole ring C, pyridone ring D and a-hydroxy lactone ring E, wherein the 20 position is S configuration (see below).

[0313] Research data shows that camptothecin can form a ternary complex with cellular DNA topoisomerase I, thereby inhibiting the unwinding of DNA, leading to inhibition of DNA replication, and thus causing cell death. Camptothecin and its derivatives have strong antitumor activity in animal models of lung cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, ovarian cancer, etc.

[0314] Clinical studies have found that measures to improve the safety and effectiveness of camptothecin compounds include improving their pharmacokinetic properties, adjusting activity, reducing dosage, or using conjugates with antibodies to form antibody conjugate drugs. Therefore, there is still a high clinical demand and application value for the development of novel camptothecin compounds and their conjugates that can improve effectiveness and safety issues.

[0315] The "drug", "toxin", "cytotoxin", "cytotoxic drug" or "payload" used in the present application refers to a derivative of camptothecin, i.e. a compound as shown in formula (I), a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, a stereoisomer, a solvate or a solvate of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof,

[0326] or R 4 and R 5 together with the carbon atom to which they are attached form a structure selected from the group consisting of a saturated or unsaturated C5-C7carbocyclic ring, a saturated or unsaturated 5-7 membered heterocyclic ring.

[0327] In another preferred embodiment, said R 4 and R 5 together with the carbon atom to which they are attached form a structure selected from the group consisting of a saturated or unsaturated C5-C7carbocyclic ring, a saturated or unsaturated 5-7 membered heterocyclic ring.

[0328] Linker

[0329] As used herein, the term "linker" generally refers to a chemical moiety or bond that links one end of a ligand (e.g., an Ab described herein) to the other end of a cytotoxic drug, and can also be linked to another linker before being linked to the cytotoxic drug.

[0330] According to the mechanism of drug release in cells, "linkers" or "linkers of antibody-drug conjugates" can be divided into two categories: non-cleavable linkers and cleavable linkers. The linker L of the present application is a cleavable linker.

[0331] For antibody-drug conjugates containing non-cleavable linkers, the mechanism of drug release is as follows: after the conjugate binds to the antigen and is endocytosed by the cell, the antibody is enzymatically degraded in the lysosome, releasing an active molecule composed of a small molecule drug, a linker, and antibody amino acid residues. The structural change of the drug molecule thus brought about does not weaken its cytotoxicity, but because the active molecule is charged (amino acid residues), it cannot penetrate into adjacent cells. Therefore, such active drugs cannot kill adjacent tumor cells that do not express the targeted antigen (antigen-negative cells) (bystander effect).

[0332] Cleavable linkers, as the name implies, can be cleaved in the target cell and release the active drug (small molecule drug itself). Cleavable linkers can be divided into two main categories: chemically unstable linkers and enzymatically unstable linkers. The linker L of the present application is an enzymatically unstable linker (i.e., an enzyme-cleavable linker).

[0333] Chemically labile linkers can be selectively cleaved due to the differences in the nature of plasma and cytoplasm. Such properties include pH, glutathione concentration, etc. Linkers sensitive to pH, also known as acid-cleavable linkers, are relatively stable in the neutral environment of blood (pH 7.3-7.5), but will be hydrolyzed in the weakly acidic endosomes (pH 5.0-6.5) and lysosomes (pH 4.5-5.0). Linkers sensitive to glutathione, also known as disulfide linkers, are based on the difference in glutathione concentration between the intracellular (millimolar range) and blood (micromolar range).

[0334] Enzymatically labile linkers, such as peptide linkers, can provide better control of drug release. Peptide linkers can be effectively cleaved by lysosomal proteases, such as Cathepsin B or plasmin (increased levels of which are found in some tumor tissues). Such peptide linkers are believed to be very stable in the plasma circulation because extracellular proteases are generally not active due to the extracellular pH and serum protease inhibitors. Given the high plasma stability and good intracellular cleavage selectivity and efficiency, enzymatically labile linkers are widely used as cleavable linkers for antibody drug conjugates. Typical enzymatically labile linkers include Val-Cit (VC), Phe-Lys, etc.

[0335] The linker of the present application is M-L1-L2-L3-L4-;

[0365] Antibody-drug conjugate

[0366] As used herein, the terms "antibody drug conjugate", "antibody conjugate", "antibody drug conjugate", "antibody-drug conjugate", and "ADC" are used interchangeably to refer to a targeting unit (e.g., a polypeptide, an antibody, an antigen binding fragment, or a non-antibody targeting unit) linked to a cytotoxic drug having a biological activity via a linker, such as an antibody-drug conjugate of formula (III).

[0367] The antibody drug conjugate provided herein is composed of an antibody, a linker, and a drug, as shown in the following formula (III): n Formula (III)

[0368] wherein the linker M'-L is a cleavable linker, which is defined as described above;

[0369] Ab is a polypeptide, an antibody, an antigen binding fragment, or a non-antibody scaffold that binds to a target, which is defined as described above;

[0370] D is a compound of formula (I-1) as shown below

[0371] wherein X', R1, R2, R3, and A are defined as described above.

[0372] In a preferred embodiment, Ab is a globular protein containing a series of amino acid sites available for conjugation of the drug-linker, and due to its tertiary and quaternary structure, only solvent accessible amino acids are available for conjugation. In fact, conjugation in high yield usually occurs on the epsilon-amino group of lysine residues or the thiol group of cysteine residues.

[0373] The large number of lysine side chains on the surface of antibody proteins leads to a large number of sites available for drug conjugation, resulting in a mixture of antibody drug conjugates with different numbers of drug conjugations (drug / antibody ratio, DAR), e.g. integers or fractions of 2.0 to 16.0 (preferably 2.0 to 8.0, most preferably 4.0 to 8.0) and conjugation sites.

[0374] Active ingredient

[0375] Depending on the context, the "compound of the present invention" can refer to a compound of Formula (I), Formula (II), or Formula (III), and also includes stereoisomers thereof, optical isomers thereof, pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, crystalline forms thereof, isotopic derivatives thereof, prodrugs thereof, metabolites thereof, solvates thereof, or hydrates thereof.

[0376] Unless specifically noted, the structural formulas described herein are intended to include all stereoisomers (e.g., cis-trans isomers, enantiomeric, diastereomeric, and conformational isomers): the R, S configurations of asymmetric centers; the (Z), (E) isomers of double bonds; the various rotamers, atropisomers, and the like. Thus, individual stereoisomers of compounds of the present invention or mixtures of stereoisomers, including enantiomeric, diastereomeric, or conformational mixtures, are within the scope of the present invention.

[0377] The compounds of the present invention can contain cis-trans isomers, one or more chiral carbon atoms, and thus can produce stereoisomeric forms such as cis-trans isomers, chiral isomers, enantiomeric, diastereomeric, and other combinations. Cis-trans isomerism refers to the phenomenon of diastereoisomerism in which the spatial arrangement of groups around a molecule differs due to the presence of a restriction on free rotation. This restriction is usually caused by the presence of a functional group in the structure of the organic compound such as a C=C double bond, a C=N double bond, a C=S double bond, a N=N double bond, a heterocycle, or a cycloalkane, which cannot rotate freely. Organic molecules containing such isomers, such as alkenes, azo compounds, cycloalkanes, and the like, are considered cis-trans isomers, with cis referring to the same ligand being in an adjacent position, and trans referring to the same ligand being in a diagonal position. Each chiral carbon atom can be defined as (R)- or (S)- based on stereochemistry. The present invention is intended to include all possible isomers, as well as racemates and optically pure forms. The preparation of the compounds of the present invention can select a racemate, a cis-trans isomer, a chiral isomer, a diastereomer, or an enantiomer as a starting material or intermediate. The optically active isomers can be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or by resolution using conventional techniques, such as crystallization and chiral chromatography.

[0378] Conventional techniques for preparing / isolating individual optical isomers (i.e., cis-trans isomers and chiral isomers) include chiral synthesis from appropriate cis-trans precursors or optically pure precursors, or resolution of racemates (or racemates of salts or derivatives) using, for example, chiral high performance liquid chromatography.

[0379] If one wishes to design a synthesis of a specific stereoisomer of a compound of the application, it can be prepared asymmetrically, or derivatized with a chiral auxiliary, the resulting stereomixture separated, and the chiral auxiliary removed to yield the pure cis-trans monomer, chiral monomer, or mixed stereomonomer. If the molecule contains a cis-trans isomeric center, the pure cis or trans product can be purified by column chromatography (normal phase silica gel column or reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography preparative). Alternatively, if the molecule contains a basic functional group, such as an amino acid, or an acidic functional group, such as a carboxyl group, one can form a diastereomeric salt with an appropriate optically active acid or base, and the diastereomeric salt can be separated by crystallization or chromatography, and the base or acid removed to yield the pure enantiomer.

[0380] The present application also includes isotopically-labelled compounds, i.e., compounds having an atom replaced by an atom having the atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature (e.g., an atom of 2 H, 3 H, 13 C, 11 C, 14 C, 15 N, 18 O, 17 O, 31 P, 32 P, 35 S, 18 F, and 36 Cl. Isotopically-labelled compounds of the present application are within the scope of the present application. Isotopically-labelled compounds, for example those into which radioactive isotopes such as 3 H-labelled compounds and 14 C-labelled compounds are useful in drug and substrate tissue distribution assays. The presence of stable isotopes such as 3 H) and carbon-14 (i.e., 14 C) in a compound makes for easier detection and quantitation of the compound useful in metabolic or other assays. In addition, replacement of protons, i.e., 2 H, with heavier isotopes such as deuterium affords certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example, increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements. Isotopically labelled compounds can generally be prepared by carrying out the procedures disclosed in the Examples by substituting a readily available isotopically labelled reagent for a non-isotopically labelled reagent.

[0387] Pharmaceutical compositions and methods of administration

[0388] Because of the antibody-drug conjugates provided by the present application, a particular cell population can be targeted and bound to a specific protein (antigen) on the cell surface, so that the drug is released in an active form into the cell by endocytosis of the conjugate or by permeation of the drug into the cell. Thus, the antibody-drug conjugates of the present application can be used to treat a target disease (e.g., cancer) by administering the above-mentioned antibody-drug conjugates in a therapeutically effective amount to a subject (e.g., a human) by a suitable route. The subject in need of treatment can be a patient at risk for, or suspected of having, a disorder associated with the activity or amount of expression of a particular antigen. Such patients can be identified by routine medical examination.

[0389] Conventional methods, known to those of ordinary skill in the medical arts, can be used to administer the pharmaceutical compositions to a subject, depending on the type of disease to be treated or the site of the disease. The compositions can also be administered by other conventional routes, e.g., orally, parenterally, by inhalation spray, topically, rectally, nasally, buccally, vaginally or via an implant. The term "parenterally" as used herein includes subcutaneous, intracutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, intraarticular, intraarterial, intrasynovial, intrasternal, intrathecal, intralesional, and intracranial injection or infusion techniques. In addition, it can be administered by routes which are subject to administration of injectable depot, e.g., using 1, 3 or 6 month depot injectable or biodegradable materials and methods of the subject.

[0390] The injectable compositions can contain various carriers such as vegetable oils, dimethylacetamide, dimethylformamide, ethyl lactate, ethyl carbonate, isopropyl myristate, ethyl alcohol, polyhydric alcohol (glycerol, propylene glycol, liquid polyethylene glycol, and the like).

Generally, the pharmaceutical preparation should match the mode of administration, and the pharmaceutical composition of the present application can be prepared in the form of a solution, for example, by a conventional method using physiological saline or an aqueous solution containing dextrose and other adjuvants. The pharmaceutical composition is preferably manufactured under sterile conditions. The amount of the active ingredient to be administered is a therapeutically effective amount.

[0393] The effective amount of the antibody-drug conjugate of the present application can vary depending on the mode of administration and the severity of the disease to be treated, etc.

[0394] The target disease (disease to be treated) of the antibody-drug conjugate of the present application is a tumor.

[0397] The selection of the preferred effective amount can be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art (e.g., through clinical trials) according to various factors. The factors include, but are not limited to, pharmacokinetic parameters of the antibody conjugate such as bioavailability, metabolism, half-life, etc.; the severity of the disease to be treated in the patient, the weight of the patient, the immune status of the patient, the route of administration, etc. Generally, satisfactory effects can be obtained when the antibody-drug conjugate of the present application is administered at a dose of about 0.0001 mg to 50 mg / kg of animal body weight (preferably 0.001 mg to 10 mg / kg of animal body weight) per day. For example, several divided doses can be administered daily, or the dose can be proportionally reduced, as required by the therapeutic situation.

[0398] Dosage forms of the antibody-drug conjugate of the present application for topical administration include ointments, powders, patches, sprays, and inhalants. The active ingredient is mixed under sterile conditions with a physiologically acceptable carrier and any preservatives, buffers, or propellants that can be required.

[0399] The antibody-drug conjugate of the present application can be administered alone or in combination with other pharmaceutically acceptable therapeutic agents.

[0400] When using the pharmaceutical composition, a safe and effective amount of the antibody-drug conjugate of the present application is applied to a mammal (e.g., a human) in need of treatment, wherein the dosage is a pharmaceutically effective dosage, and for a 60 kg body weight human, the daily dosage is usually 1-2000 mg, preferably 5-500 mg.

[0404] 3. The antibody-drug conjugate of the present application has high in vivo tolerance and excellent therapeutic safety window. In rat toxicity tests, compared with the control positive ADC using the marketed drug linker-payload (deruxtecan) of the same target, it shows lower body weight reduction, lower food intake reduction, and lower hematological toxicity.

[0407] Example 1: Preparation of antibody

[0408] The preparation method of the humanized antibody H03-2 against ADAM9 used in this application is as described in patent 202410970739.9, specifically as follows:

[0409] I. Antigen, immunization scheme and antibody preparation

[0410] 1. Antigen

[0411] The protein antigen used for immunization is the amino acids 206-297 of human ADAM9 recombinant protein (NCBI Reference Sequence: NP_003807.1), i.e. ADAM9 extracellular domain (ADAM9-ECD), with 6 His tags at the C-terminus, i.e. human ADAM9-ECD-His protein, prepared and provided by Sunny Biotech (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.

[0412] 2. Immunization scheme

[0413] Ten Balb / C mice, female, 10 weeks old, were selected for animal immunization with the aforementioned human ADAM9-ECD-His protein. The first immunization antigen was emulsified with Freund's complete adjuvant, and the antigen amount was 100 μg / mouse. The subsequent immunization adjuvant was Freund's incomplete adjuvant, and the antigen amount was 50 μg / mouse. The injection method was intraperitoneal and subcutaneous multi-point injection. The cell immunization was 1×10 7 cells / mouse for the first time, and 5×10 6 cells / mouse for subsequent immunization. The injection method was intraperitoneal injection. The number of immunizations was 4 times, and the immunization time was set as every other week, i.e. after immunization, the mice were immunized again after one week, and 21 days after the last immunization, the mice were given a booster immunization.

[0414] 3. Serum titer detection

[0415] 3.1. Sample preparation

[0416] The mouse serum after immunization was diluted with 5% PBST at a gradient of 1500, 4500, 13500, and 40500.

[0417] 3.2. ELISA method for detecting serum titer

[0418] 1) Coating: 2 pg / mL antigen, 30 pL per well, 4°C overnight, PBST wash plate 3 times.

[0419] 2) Blocking: 5% PBST, room temperature, 2h, PBST wash plate 3 times.

[0420] 3) Primary antibody: add the above gradient diluted serum, non-immune mouse serum as negative control, 30 pL / well, room temperature, 1h, PBST wash plate 6 times.

[0421] 4) Secondary antibody: serum sample added 1:5000 diluted secondary antibody goat anti-mouse-lgG-HRP (Rockland, cat# 609-103-123), 5% PBST dilution; positive control group added 1:5000 diluted secondary antibody goat anti-human IgG-HRP (Shanghai Enzyme-linked Biotechnology Co., Ltd., ml087062), 5% PBST dilution. 30 pL / well, room temperature, 50min, PBST wash plate 6 times.

[0422] 5) Termination: add 30 pL / well TMB (Suzhou Yake Chemical Reagent Co., Ltd., cat# S0025) room temperature color development 5min-10min, then add 30 pL / well 2M stop solution (Suzhou Yake Chemical Reagent Co., Ltd.) to terminate the reaction, and read the data with a microplate reader at OD450.

[0423] II. Preparation of hybridoma cells and obtaining of mouse-derived antibodies

[0424] As described above, the titer of the above immunized Balb / C mice was detected with human ADAM9-ECD-His protein, the serum titer and the ability to bind cell surface antigens were evaluated, and the control titer detection (more than 100,000-fold dilution) determined the start of cell fusion. The immune mice with high serum titer were sacrificed after the first terminal immunization, and the spleen cells and SP2 / 0 myeloma cells were fused and plated to obtain hybridoma. The target hybridoma was screened by indirect ELISA, and the monoclonal cell strain was established by limiting dilution method. The positive antibody strain obtained was further screened by indirect ELISA, so as to select the hybridoma combined with recombinant protein. The logarithmic growth period hybridoma cells were collected, and the RNA was extracted by Trizol (Invitrogen, 15596-018) and reverse transcribed (PrimeScript TM Reverse Transcriptase, Takara #2680A). The cDNA obtained by reverse transcription was amplified by PCR using mouse Ig-Primer Set (Novagen, TB326 Rev. B 0503) and sequenced, and finally the mouse-derived antibody was obtained.

[0425] III. Humanization of mouse antibody

[0426] The murine anti-human ADAM9 monoclonal antibody was humanized according to the methods well known in the art. Briefly, the human constant domains were used to replace the constant domains of the parent (murine) antibody, and the human germline antibody sequences were selected according to the homology of the murine antibody and human antibody. In this embodiment, the murine antibody was humanized.

[0427] Specifically, the human germline sequences were used as the acceptor framework for humanizing the murine antibody. To find the closest germline sequences, the most similar expressed light chain and the most similar heavy chain were identified in the germline sequence database by NCBI IgBLAST (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov / igblast / ). In this search, the CDR sequences of the murine antibody were masked. The selection criteria for the most suitable expressed sequences included the sequence identity of the canonical residues and the interface residues, and the similarity of the CDR loop length.

[0428] Based on the obtained murine antibody VH / VL CDR canonical structure, the heavy and light chain variable region sequences were compared with the human antibody germline database to obtain the human germline template with high homology.

[0429] The CDR regions of the murine antibody were grafted onto the selected corresponding humanized template. Then, based on the three-dimensional structure of the murine antibody, the back-mutation was performed on the buried residues, the residues directly interacting with the CDR regions, and the residues having a significant impact on the conformation of VL and VH, and the CDR region chemically unstable amino acid residues were optimized. Through expression testing and comparison of the number of back-mutations, the antibody with the combination of humanized heavy chain variable region HCVR and light chain variable region LCVR sequences was selected, in which the CDR sequences of the light and heavy chain variable regions are shown in Table 1, and the specific variable region sequence information of the humanized antibody is shown in Table 2.

SEC of purified ADC 3-DXD showed a purity of 97.1%, the results of which are shown in Figure 11.

[0528] Example 24: In vitro anti-tumor activity of toxin compounds

[0529] DXD (the drug molecule in deruxtecan, the linker-drug conjugate of Enhertu ADC by Daiichi Sankyo) and different toxin compounds of the present application were tested for in vitro proliferation inhibition activity against human orthotopic pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC-3 and human ovarian teratocarcinoma cell PA-1 expressing ADAM9.

[0530] The cells used in this example were purchased from Shanghai Zhijiao Xin Zhou Biological Technology Co., Ltd. or Nanjing Kebai Biological Technology Co., Ltd. (both have STR identification reports) and cultured according to the corresponding instructions, including PA-1, BxPC-3, etc. The above cells in the logarithmic growth phase were inoculated into 96-well cell culture plates at a density of 2000 cells per well, 100 μL / well, 37°C, 5% CO2, and cultured for about 24h. Different concentrations of toxin compounds were added, 3 replicate wells were set for each drug concentration, and the corresponding solvent control group and blank control well were added. After 5 days (120h) of action, the culture solution was poured off, 100 μL / well of complete culture medium containing 10% CCK-8 (purchased from Biyun Tian, cat#C0040) was added, and the reaction was carried out at 37°C for 1-2.5h (depending on the reaction activity of different cells, the reaction was carried out to the expected color depth). The activity (OD 450nM) of each group was determined, and the cell survival rate was calculated according to the following formula: survival rate = (OD drug-OD blank) / (OD control-OD blank) x 100%. The above data were analyzed by software to calculate the IC 50 values of DXD and each toxin compound of the present application on different cell lines.

[0531] The growth curves of each compound inhibiting BxPC-3 and PA-1 cancer cells are shown in Figures 12 and 13, and the corresponding IC 50 values are shown in Table 3.

[0532] Table 3: IC 50 values of DXD and compounds of the present application for inhibiting the proliferation of BXPC-3 and PA-1 cell lines

[0533] The experimental results show that in the inhibition of the proliferation of human ovarian teratocarcinoma cell PA-1 cells, the IC 50 values of compounds DXD, C, D, F, and G are all low (<0.5 ng / mL), indicating that they have excellent effects on inhibiting the proliferation of ovarian cancer cells. In the inhibition of the proliferation of human pancreatic cancer BxPC-3 cells, the IC 50 values of compounds DXD, C, D, F, and G are all low (<3 ng / mL), indicating that they have excellent effects on inhibiting the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells.

[0534] Example 25: In vitro antitumor activity of antibody-drug conjugates targeting ADAM9

[0535] This embodiment tested the in vitro antitumor activity of the antibody-drug conjugate against ADAM9-expressing gastric cancer cells AGS, non-small cell lung cancer cells Calu-3, and pancreatic cancer cells BxPC-3. The experimental method was the same as in Example 24, and the experimental results are shown in Figures 14-16 and Table 4.

[0536] Table 4: Inhibitory activity of different antibody-drug conjugates targeting ADAM9 against different cancer cell lines

[0537] Note: ADC IC 50 This represents the molar concentration of the toxin contained.

[0538] Experimental results showed that in vitro, ADC1-A, ADC-1B, ADC1-C, ADC1-D and ADC1-DXD targeting ADAM9 could effectively inhibit the growth of non-small cell lung cancer cells Calu-3 (Figure 14), pancreatic cancer cells BxPC-3 (Figure 15) and gastric cancer cells AGS (Figure 16) with high ADAM9 expression.

[0539] However, it can also be seen that the in vitro inhibitory activity of the same ADC differs in different cell models; and the in vitro inhibitory activity of different ADCs also differs in the same cell model. This is in conjunction with the IC50 of the toxin in Example 24. 50 The values ​​show that in in vitro experiments, the activity of the toxin and the ADC are not positively correlated (for example, compound D has very good activity as a toxin, but the corresponding ADC molecule ADC1-D has an effect comparable to ADC1-C, and is even worse than ADC1-C in some cell lines). That is, high toxin activity does not necessarily mean high ADC activity in inhibiting cancer cells. Overall, ADC1-C and ADC1-DXD have comparable cell growth inhibitory activities.

[0540] Example 26: In vitro antitumor activity of an antibody-drug conjugate targeting TROP-2

[0541] This embodiment tested the in vitro antitumor activity of the antibody-drug conjugate against TROP-2-expressing pancreatic cancer cells BxPC-3. The experimental method was the same as in Example 24, and the experimental results are shown in Figure 17.

[0542] Experimental results showed that ADC2-A, ADC2-C, ADC2-D and ADC2-DXD, which target TROP-2 in vitro, could effectively inhibit the growth of BxPC-3 tumor cells with high TROP-2 expression. Among them, the inhibitory effect of ADC2-C was comparable to that of ADC2-DXD.

[0543] Example 27: Anti-tumor activity of the antibody-drug conjugate targeting ADAM9 in vivo

[0544] NCI-H1975 (human lung adenocarcinoma cells), Calu-3 cells were cultured in monolayer in vitro and passaged. When the cells were in exponential growth phase, the cells were harvested. 5.0 x 10 6 cells were suspended in 0.1 ml PBS mixed with Matrigel (1:1) and inoculated into the right scapular of 5 nude mice (P1 generation). When the tumors grew to 500-800 mm 3 , the tumor-bearing mice were sacrificed by CO2 anesthesia, and the tumor mass was cut into small tumor pieces of 20-30 mm 3 , which were inoculated into a new batch of nude mice (P2 generation). The tumor tissue stably passaged was used to evaluate the anti-tumor activity of the test product. When the average tumor volume reached about 150 mm 3 after 7 days of tumor mass inoculation, the mice (n=5) were randomly grouped according to the tumor volume and the drug administration was started.

[0545] In the NCI-H1975 model, the antibody-drug conjugate was converted into an exatecan dose of 0.1 mg / kg, once a week for a total of two times. In the Calu-3 model, the antibody-drug conjugate was converted into an exatecan dose of 0.02 mg / kg, a single administration.

[0546] After the tumor cells were inoculated, in addition to observing the tumor growth, the effect of drug treatment on the behavior of the animals was monitored: the activity of the experimental animals, food and water intake, body weight changes (body weight was measured twice a week), eyes, fur and other abnormalities. The clinical symptoms observed during the experiment were recorded in the raw data. The tumor volume calculation method was: tumor volume (mm 3 ) = 1 / 2 x (a x b 2 ) (where a represents the long diameter and b represents the short diameter). About 35 days after the tumor mass was inoculated, all the mice were taken out of the tumor and weighed, and photographed.

[0547] The experimental results are shown in Figures 18-23, in which Figures 18 and 21 are the statistical curves of the tumor inhibition activity, Figures 19 and 22 are the tumor mass graphs of the tumor inhibition effect, and Figures 20 and 23 are the corresponding body weight change curves.

[0548] From the in vivo efficacy results of NCI-H1975, it can be seen that the tumor inhibition effects of the antibody conjugate drugs ADC1-B and ADC1-C targeting ADAM-9 of the present application are excellent, both of which are significantly better than ADC1-A and ADC1-D, in which ADC1-C and the positive control ADC1-DXD both achieve 100% inhibition effect (Figures 18, 19).

[0549] From the in vivo pharmacodynamic results of Calu-3, it can be seen that the anti-tumor effects of ADC1-B and ADC1-C are excellent at a lower dose of single administration of the antibody-drug conjugate targeting ADAM-9, and are obviously superior to ADC1-A and ADC1-D, wherein ADC1-C and positive control ADC1-DXD both achieve 100% inhibition effect (Figures 21 and 22).

[0550] In summary, ADC1-B and ADC1-C both have excellent anti-tumor effects in vivo, and the anti-tumor effect of ADC1-C is more excellent.

[0551] Example 28: In vivo anti-tumor activity of antibody-drug conjugate targeting TROP-2

[0552] NCI-H1975 cells were cultured in monolayer in vitro, and subcultured, and the test method referred to Example 27.

[0553] In the NCI-H1975 model, the antibody-drug conjugate was converted into 0.1 mg / kg exatecan dose, and the single administration scheme was used.

[0554] The experimental results are shown in Figures 24-26, wherein Figure 24 is a statistical curve of anti-tumor activity, Figure 25 is a tumor block diagram of anti-tumor effect, and Figure 26 is a corresponding body weight change curve.

[0555] From the in vivo pharmacodynamic results of NCI-H1975, it can be seen that the anti-tumor effects of antibody-drug conjugates ADC2-A, ADC2-C and ADC2-D targeting TROP-2 of the present application and positive control ADC2-DXD are excellent, wherein ADC2-C achieves 100% inhibition effect (Figures 24 and 25), and the tumor blocks of one animal in each group do not completely disappear.

[0556] Example 29: In vivo anti-tumor activity of antibody-drug conjugate targeting EGFR

[0557] BxPC-3 cells were cultured in monolayer in vitro, and subcultured, and the test method referred to Example 27.

[0558] In the BxPC-3 model, the antibody-drug conjugate was converted into 0.1 mg / kg exatecan dose, and the scheme of once a week for a total of two administrations was used.

[0559] The experimental results are shown in Figures 27-29, wherein Figure 27 is a statistical curve of anti-tumor activity, Figure 28 is a tumor block diagram of anti-tumor effect, and Figure 29 is a corresponding body weight change curve.

[0560] From the in vivo efficacy results of BxPC-3, the anti-tumor effects of the EGFR-targeted antibody-drug conjugate ADC3-C and the positive control ADC3-DXD of the present application are excellent, wherein the anti-tumor effect of ADC3-C is superior to that of the positive control ADC3-DXD (Figures 27 and 28).

[0561] Example 30: Rat toxicity test of Anti-ADAM9 antibody-drug conjugate

[0562] SD rats were given tail vein injection of ADC1-C (prepared separately, DAR value of 7.8) and ADC1-DXD (prepared separately, DAR value of 7.5), once a week for a total of 3 times, without a recovery period. The nature, degree and possible death of the toxic reactions possibly caused by the drug were observed, the target organ or target tissue of toxicity was preliminarily judged, and the toxicokinetic characteristics were studied.

[0563] Methods

[0564] 18 SD rats were randomly divided into solvent control group, ADC1-C dose group and positive control group ADC1-DXD according to body weight, 6 rats per group, half male and half female. The dosages of ADC1-C dose group and positive control group ADC1-DXD were 200 mg / kg and 160 mg / kg respectively, the dosing volume was 10 mL / kg, and the corresponding dosing concentrations of each group were 20 mg / mL and 16 mg / mL respectively. The solvent control group was given 10 mL / kg of sodium chloride injection. The tail vein was given a bolus injection, once a week for 3 weeks, a total of 3 times.

[0565] (1) General state observation: the animals were observed by a veterinarian for 3 days after receiving the drug, once a day. On the day of administration, observation was performed before, after and in the afternoon, once on the day of dissection, and once a day on the remaining non-administration days in the morning and afternoon, and the observation content included but was not limited to general performance, behavior state, eyes, mouth, nose, ears, hair and skin, feces, urine, genital abnormalities, etc.

[0566] (2) Detailed clinical state observation: observation was performed once a week during the test period, and the content included observing the general performance, behavior state, hair and skin, feces, urine, etc. of the animals at the cage edge, and then moving the animals outside the cage to perform palpation examination on the subcutaneous superficial tissues of the head, face, trunk, limbs, etc., abdominal organs and mucous membranes of the eyes, mouth and genital area.

[0567] (3) Infusion site observation: observation was performed once before administration and once after administration on the day of administration, and once a day during the administration period.

[0568] (4) Body weight: Measured twice during the adaptation period, twice a week during the drug administration period, and once before dissection. The results are shown in Figure 30.

[0569] (5) Food intake: Food intake was measured during the adaptation period from P3 to P4, and average food intake was measured during the drug administration period from D1 to D3, D3 to D7, D7 to D10, D10 to D14, D14 to D17, and D17 to D21. The results are shown in Figure 31.

[0570] (6) Clinical pathology: Blood sample D22 was tested once, and the results are shown in Table 5.

[0571] (7) Toxicokinetics: Detection of ADC, total antibody and small molecule toxin.

[0572] (8) Gross anatomy, organ weighing and histopathological examination: Histopathological examination of the brain, thymus, heart, liver, spleen, kidneys, adrenal glands and tissues / organs that appear abnormal to the naked eye.

[0573] Table 5. Results of Detection of Hematological Indicators of Toxicity in Rats

[0574] Note: Control group data are averages, while ADC1-C and ADC1-DXD group data are percentage differences (%) compared to the control group. Statistical significance is based on actual data (not percentage differences).

[0575] *D=Dunnett LSD Test Significant at the 0.05level.

[0576] +D=Dunnett LSD Test Significant at the 0.01level.

[0577] in conclusion

[0578] Under the conditions of this experiment, SD rats were intravenously administered 200 mg / kg of ADC1-C and 160 mg / kg of ADC1-DXD. During the experiment, all animals survived to the planned dissection, and no animals were near death or died.

[0579] After administration, the weight loss of rats in the ADC1-C group was significantly lower than that in the ADC1-DXD group (Figure 30), and the food intake loss of rats in the ADC1-C group was significantly lower than that in the ADC1-DXD group (Figure 31). Similar shrinkage of the thymus and spleen was observed in both groups, but the shrinkage was less severe in the ADC1-C group than in the ADC1-DXD group.

[0580] The results of the two ADC groups in rat hematology (Table 5) showed that ADC1-C showed lower hematological toxicity in terms of lymphocyte count (LYMPH), white blood cell count (WBC), %LYMPH (lymphocytes), and %MONO (monocytes). The values ​​of the solvent control group are the average values ​​of the measurements, and the data of the ADC1-C and ADC1-DXD groups are the percentage differences (%) from the control group. Positive numbers indicate higher values ​​than the solvent group, and negative numbers indicate lower values ​​than the solvent group.

[0581] In summary, considering hematological, pathological changes, and body weight and feeding, it is suggested that compared with the positive control ADC1-DXD, the ADC1-C of this invention has more stable feeding, better health indicators, and lower toxicity. The linker-payload of this invention maintains good efficacy while having better safety and tolerability, and the animals' condition and compliance are better when administered.

[0582] Example 31: Pretoxicology and toxicokinetics of anti-ADAM9 antibody-drug conjugate in cynomolgus monkeys

[0583] Cynomolgus monkeys were intravenously administered ADC1-C (from the same batch as the rat toxicity test, with a DAR value of 7.8), with escalating doses administered every 2 weeks for a total of 3 doses. The nature, severity, and time-dependent effects of the potential toxic reactions were observed to preliminarily determine the target organs or tissues for toxicity.

[0584] method

[0585] One female cynomolgus macaque (from Hainan Xinzhengyuan Biotechnology Co., Ltd.) was administered ADC1-C intravenously. The first dose was 75 mg / kg; a second dose was given two weeks later at a dose increased to 80 mg / kg; a third dose was given two weeks after the second dose at a dose increased to 85 mg / kg; and the macaque was dissected one week after the third dose. The monitored and observed indicators included:

[0586] (1) General condition observation: On the day of administration, animals are observed once before, once after administration, and once in the afternoon. On other days, they are observed once in the morning and once in the afternoon. On the day of dissection, animals to be dissected are observed once. Observe the general appearance, behavior, eyes, mouth, nose and mouth, ears, hair and skin, feces, urine, genitals and other abnormal symptoms.

[0587] (2) Detailed clinical observation: During the adaptation period of the experiment, observe once, and observe 1 to 2 times a week thereafter. The observation includes observing the animal’s general appearance, behavior, hair and skin, feces, urine and other abnormalities at the cage. After that, move the animal out of the cage and perform palpation examination on the subcutaneous superficial tissues of the animal’s head, face, trunk, limbs, abdominal organs and mucous membranes of the eyes, mouth and genitals.

[0588] (3) Observation of infusion site: Observe once before and after administration on the administration day, and once a day on non-administration days during the administration period.

[0589] (4) Weight: once during the adaptation period, once or twice a week during the drug administration period, and once before dissection.

[0590] (5) Electrocardiogram: Measured once during the adaptation period, and once 6h and 24h after the first and second administrations.

[0591] (6) Food intake / food consumption: Food intake was quantitatively measured once during the adaptation period, twice a week during the drug administration period, and food consumption was estimated at other times.

[0592] (7) Toxicokinetics – Total Antibodies: Blood samples were collected from cynomolgus monkeys at different time points (10 min, 4 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, 96 h, 120 h and 168 h, 240 h) after the first and third administrations for the detection of total toxicokinetic antibodies (only the first blood sample was collected at 240 h). The total antibody content in cynomolgus monkey serum samples was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The antigen was bound to a solid-phase carrier. During detection, the antibody conjugate in the serum to be tested was incubated with the antigen bound to the solid-phase carrier. After washing, the detection working solution was added and TMB color development was performed. The total antibody content in the sample was determined by quantitatively detecting the amount of colorimetric product. The results are shown in Figure 32. The half-lives of the first and third administrations were calculated using PKSolver (Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine 2010; 99: 306-14). The results showed that the total antibody half-lives calculated using PKSolver (Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine 2010; 99: 306-14) were 217 h and 269 h, respectively, for the first and third times.

[0593] (7) Toxicokinetics – Small Molecule Toxins: Blood samples were collected from cynomolgus monkeys at different time points (10 min, 4 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, 96 h, 120 h and 168 h, 240 h) after the first and third administrations for the detection of total toxicotropic antibodies (blood was collected only at 240 h for the first administration). The blood concentration of the small molecule toxin compound was detected by LC / MS, and the results are shown in Figure 33. The half-lives for the first and third administrations were calculated using PKSolver to be 107 h and 174 h, respectively.

[0594] (13) Bone marrow cytology examination.

[0595] (8) Gross dissection, organ weighing and histopathological examination: All dissected animal organs / tissues were fixed. Histopathological examination was performed on the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, thymus, brain, eyeballs, optic nerve, bladder, ureters (females only) and any tissues / organs that appeared abnormal to the naked eye.

[0596] in conclusion

[0597] Under the conditions of this experiment, cynomolgus monkeys were intravenously administered ADC1-C at a dose of 75-85 mg / kg. During the experiment, the animals survived until the end of the administration period or the planned dissection date, and no near-death or death was observed.

[0598] Following ADC1-C administration, gross observation of the animals revealed only slight weight loss, decreased food intake, and one small amount of soft, yellow stool. Clinical pathology showed mild decreases in erythroid cells (RBC, HCT, HGB), WBC, #LYMPH, and %LYMPH (Table 6), and an increase in AST (Table 7), which recovered before the next administration. At the end of the administration period, the main pathological changes were a decrease in lymphocytes in the thymus and spleen; no drug-related pathological changes were detected in vital organs (heart, liver, kidneys, lungs, etc.).

[0599] Table 6: Results of hematological markers for pretoxicology in cynomolgus monkeys

[0600] Table 7: Results of Blood Biochemical Indicators Detection in Pre-Toxicological Treatment of Crab-Eating Mammals

[0601] MacroGenics' IMGC-936 is the world's first ADAM9-ADC to enter clinical trials, with the conjugated toxin being the tubulin inhibitor DM50. In its monkey toxicology studies, 22.5 mg / kg of IMGC-936 was observed to cause corneal toxicity (Mol Cancer Ther 2022; 21:1047-59). In contrast, in monkey toxicology studies, ADC1-C, with three dose escalations (75, 80, 85 mg / kg), significantly exceeded the safe dose of IMGC-936 (15 mg / kg), and no corneal toxicity or other serious pathological changes were observed in gross examination or pathological sections, suggesting that the antibody-drug conjugate of this invention has an excellent therapeutic safety window.

[0602] The HNSTD of the cynomolgus monkeys in this invention can be preliminarily determined to be 85 mg / kg, which is much higher than the 30 mg / kg of DS-8201, which uses deruxtecan as a linker toxin, by Daiichi Sankyo (Clin Cancer Res, 2016.22(20):p.5097-5108). Moreover, in this embodiment, the dosing frequency of this invention is once every two weeks for three times, which is higher than the once every three weeks dosing frequency of DS-8201. Therefore, the ADC using the linker technology of this invention has higher safety.

[0603] The half-lives for the first and third administrations, calculated based on the total antibody blood concentration (Figure 32), were 217 h and 269 h, respectively. The half-lives for the first and third administrations, calculated based on the small molecule toxin blood concentration after ADC administration (Figure 33), were 107 h and 174 h, respectively. This indicates that the antibody-drug conjugate of the present invention has a long half-life, suggesting that the antibody-drug conjugate of the present invention can maintain a steady-state blood drug concentration, reduce the impact of concentration fluctuations on efficacy, prolong the dosing interval, and improve patient compliance.
