Abstract
Description
A humanized nanobody targeting BCMA and its application Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of biomedicine, specifically to an anti-BCMA antigen-binding protein. Background Technology
[0002] Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common hematologic malignancy and the second leading cause of cancer death. MM is a plasma cell malignancy, often accompanied by multiple osteolytic lesions, kidney dysfunction, bone marrow infiltration, hypercalcemia, and anemia. The main current treatment for MM is systemic chemotherapy, which has severe side effects, and it is not curable.
[0003] B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor superfamily of proteins. It is mainly expressed in malignant and normal plasma cells as well as some mature B cells, but is not expressed in important tissues. It is an effective target for the treatment of MM.
[0004] With the introduction of novel drugs such as protease inhibitors (PIs), immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), the treatment options for multiple myeloma (MM) have expanded, but the relapse rate remains extremely high and drug resistance develops. Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy has shown significant efficacy and manageable toxicity for MM. However, CAR-T cell therapy targeting BCMA presents a target escape problem for MM patients with low BCMA expression. Therefore, there is a need to develop an antigen-binding protein with stronger binding activity to the BCMA antigen. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This application provides an isolated antigen-binding protein that specifically binds to BCMA protein.

The antigen-binding protein, chimeric antigen receptor, fusion protein, cells, and nucleic acid molecules provided in this application can more efficiently eliminate tumors and have therapeutic effects on both recurrent and refractory tumors, and are expected to be used in first-line, second-line, and third-line cancer treatment.

[0140] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of the invention. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the invention from the content disclosed in this specification.
[0141] Terminology Definition
[0142] In this application, the term "isolated antigen-binding protein" generally refers to a protein that has antigen-binding ability after being removed from its native state. The "isolated antigen-binding protein" may include an antigen-binding portion and optionally, a framework or scaffold portion that allows the antigen-binding portion to adopt a conformation that promotes its antigen-binding. The antigen-binding protein may include, for example, an antibody-derived protein framework region (FR) or an alternative protein framework region or artificial framework region having a transplanted variable region (CDR) or a CDR derivative. For example, the antigen-binding protein may include an antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof. For example, the antigen-binding protein may bind to the GPRC5D protein. For example, the antigen-binding protein may compete with a reference antibody for binding to the GPRC5D protein. For example, the antigen-binding protein may include an antibody heavy chain variable region (VH). For example, the antigen-binding protein may include at least one CDR derived from the antibody heavy chain variable region (VH). For example, the VH may include HCDR3, HCDR2, and / or HCDR1. For example, the antigen-binding protein may be a VHH. For example, the antigen-binding protein may include an antibody heavy chain constant region, which may be derived from IgG. For example, the antibody heavy chain constant region may be derived from human IgG. For example, the antibody heavy chain constant region may be derived from human IgG1.
[0143] In this application, the term "variable" generally refers to the fact that certain segments of the variable domain may differ significantly in sequence between antibodies. The variable domain mediates antigen binding and determines the specificity of a particular antibody for its specific antigen. However, variability is not uniformly distributed across the entire variable domain. It is typically concentrated in three segments within the light and heavy chain variable domains, known as hypervariable regions (CDRs or HVRs). The more highly conserved portions of the variable domain are called framework regions (FRs). The variable domains of the natural heavy and light chains each contain four FR regions, most of which are β-sheet conformations linked by three CDRs forming a ring link, and in some cases forming part of a β-sheet structure. The CDRs in each chain are held together closely by the FR regions, and CDRs from the other chain together promote the formation of the antigen-binding site of the antibody (see Kabat et al, Sequences of Immunological Interest, Fifth Edition, National Institute of Health, Bethesda, Md. (1991)).
[0144] The term "antibody" as used includes both the complete antibody and its binding fragment. Typically, the fragment competitively binds to the antigen specifically, as derived from the complete antibody. Optionally, the antibody or its binding fragment may chemically bind to other proteins or be expressed as a fusion protein with other proteins. For example, the antibody may be a monoclonal antibody, a chimeric antibody, a humanized antibody, or a fully human antibody. For example, the binding protein of the antibody or its binding fragment may include BCMA. For example, the antibody or its binding fragment may be specific to BCMA.
[0145] The term "antigen-binding fragment" refers to a portion of a complete antibody and specifically to the antigen-determining variable region of the complete antibody. For example, the antigen-binding fragment may include Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, Fv fragments and single-chain Fv fragments, tandem Fv fragments, VHH, and bispecific antibodies. For example, the antigen-binding fragment may be a VHH. For example, the antigen-binding fragment may bind to BCMA. For example, the antigen-binding fragment may be specific to BCMA.
[0146] In this application, the term "VHH" generally refers to an antibody containing a variable antigen-binding domain of a heavy chain antibody. VHH may also be referred to as a nanobody (Nb) and / or a single-domain antibody. For example, the VHH may bind to BCMA. For example, the VHH may be specific for BCMA.
[0147] In this application, the term "chimeric antigen receptor" (CAR) generally refers to a recombinant polypeptide comprising at least an extracellular domain, a transmembrane region, and an intracellular domain that specifically bind to an antigen or target. For example, a hinge region may be included between the extracellular domain and the transmembrane region. For example, the chimeric antigen receptor may also include a low-density lipoprotein receptor-associated protein or a fragment thereof. For example, the chimeric antigen receptor may include a signal peptide. The binding of the extracellular domain of the CAR to the target antigen on the surface of the target cell leads to CAR clustering and delivers activation stimuli to CAR-containing cells. The CAR redirects the specificity of immune effector cells and triggers proliferation, cytokine production, phagocytosis, and / or production of molecules capable of mediating cell death expressing the target antigen in a major histocompatibility (MHC)-independent manner. For example, the extracellular structure may include the antigen-binding protein described above. For example, the extracellular structure may specifically bind BCMA.

A hinge region generally comprises approximately 25 amino acid residues and is flexible, allowing independent movement of the antigen-binding region. A hinge region can be subdivided into three domains: upper, middle, and lower hinge domains. For example, the hinge region may comprise a hinge region derived from one or more proteins selected from the group consisting of: CD28, IgG1, IgG4, IgD, 4-1BB, CD4, CD27, CD7, CD8, PD-1, ICOS, OX40, NKG2D, NKG2C, FcεRIγ, BTLA, GITR, DAP10, CD40L, TIM1, CD226, SLAM, CD30, and LIGHT.

Its main function is to take up cholesterol into cells for cell proliferation and the synthesis of steroid hormones and bile salts. For example, the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein can be derived from any vertebrate. For example, the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein or a fragment thereof can be located at the C-terminus of the intracellular signaling region. For example, the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein or a fragment thereof can comprise one or more selected from the group consisting of low-density lipoprotein receptor-related proteins 1-12 and their functional fragments.

[0162] In this application, the variant can be, for example, a protein or polypeptide that has undergone substitution, deletion, or addition of one or more amino acids in the amino acid sequence of the protein and / or the polypeptide (e.g., an antibody that specifically binds to BCMA protein or a fragment thereof). For example, the functional variant may comprise a protein or polypeptide that has undergone amino acid alterations through substitution, deletion, and / or insertion of at least one, such as 1-30, 1-20, or 1-10, or even 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 amino acids. The functional variant may substantially retain the biological properties of the protein or polypeptide prior to the alteration (e.g., substitution, deletion, or addition). For example, the functional variant may retain at least 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, or 100% of the biological activity (e.g., antigen-binding capacity) of the protein or polypeptide prior to the alteration. For example, the substitution may be a conserved substitution.

[0164] In this application, homology generally refers to the similarity, resemblance, or association between two or more sequences. The "sequence homology percentage" can be calculated by comparing two sequences to be aligned within a comparison window, determining the number of positions in the two sequences containing the same nucleic acid bases (e.g., A, T, C, G, I) or the same amino acid residues (e.g., Ala, Pro, Ser, Thr, Gly, Val, Leu, Ile, Phe, Tyr, Trp, Lys, Arg, His, Asp, Glu, Asn, Gln, Cys, and Met) to obtain the number of matching positions, dividing the number of matching positions by the total number of positions in the comparison window (i.e., the window size), and multiplying the result by 100 to produce the sequence homology percentage. Alignments performed to determine the sequence homology percentage can be performed in various ways known in the art, for example, using publicly available computer software such as BLAST, BLAST-2, ALIGN, or Megalign (DNASTAR) software. Those skilled in the art can determine suitable parameters for aligning sequences, including any algorithm required to achieve maximum alignment across the full-length sequence being compared or within the target sequence region. Homology can also be determined using FASTA and BLAST. A description of the FASTA algorithm can be found in W.R.

These coding systems are known in the art and can be found, for example, at http: / / www.bioinf.org.uk / abs / index.html#kabatnum. Those skilled in the art can determine the CDR region using different coding systems based on the antibody's sequence and structure. The CDR region may differ when using different coding systems. In this application, the term CDR encompasses CDR sequences partitioned according to any CDR partitioning method; it also encompasses variants of the CDR, including amino acid sequences with substitutions, deletions, and / or additions of one or more amino acids. For example, substitutions, deletions, and / or insertions of 1-30, 1-20, or 1-10 amino acids, or 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 amino acids; this also covers homologs, which can be amino acid sequences having at least about 85% (e.g., having at least about 85%, about 90%, about 91%, about 92%, about 93%, about 94%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98%, about 99%, or higher) sequence homology to the amino acid sequence of the CDR.

[0842] Example
[0843] Example 1. Screening of anti-BCMA antibodies using the artificially synthesized nanobody library NanoOri_1.0
[0844] By comparing 296 nanobodies and their structures without repeating sequences in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) database, the CDR mutation strategy was determined, with three possible CDR 3 amino acid lengths: 14, 17, and 21. Using the commercially available nanobody Caplacizumab as the backbone, the Caplacizumab nucleotide sequence was synthesized from its entire genome and cloned into the HP153 phage vector. Single-stranded DNA was then extracted from HP153, and the CDRs of the nanobodies were mutated using the Kunkel Mutagenesis method to obtain double-stranded DNA. The double-stranded DNA was electroporated into competent *E. coli* SS320 cells pre-infected with M13KO7 helper phage. After overnight culture, the phage supernatant was collected, ultimately constructing a strain with a diversity of 1.44 x 10⁻⁶. 10 The artificially synthesized nanobody library NanoOri_1.0 was used for subsequent antibody sequence screening.
[0845] As shown in Figure 1, select BCMA. ECD - His recombinant protein (constructed using the Yuanqi Biomolecular Cloning Platform; the amino acid sequence of human BCMA protein is shown in the Uniprot identifier: Q02223-1; the amino acid sequence of His is HHHHHH) was used in a series of four rounds of panning to synthesize a nanobody library. In short, the BCMA antigen was coated in PBS buffer using an ELISA tube. ECD- Incubate 1 mL of His protein overnight at 4°C; the next day, block the immunoassay tubes with PBS buffer containing 5% skim milk powder; add the room-temperature blocked phage to the immunoassay tubes and incubate at room temperature; wash with PBST (0.05% TWEEN-20); elute with Gly-HCl buffer, neutralize with Tris-HCl buffer; add to 20 mL of TG1 with an OD of approximately 0.8 in the logarithmic growth phase, mix well, and incubate at 37°C for 1 h; take 1 mL of bacterial culture to determine the phage titer and glycerol preservation; add helper phage, mix well, and incubate at 37°C for 1 h; add IPTG and Kans antibiotic, and incubate overnight at 30°C with shaking at 250 rpm; collect the supernatant, precipitate the phage with PEG / NaCl solution, and resuspend in PBS buffer; the resuspended phage is used for the next round of panning. As shown in Figure 2, after 4 rounds of panning, polyclonal ELISA showed significant enrichment of specific sequences. Identification of panned phage antibody clones using monoclonal ELISA: Human BCMA was coated onto 96-well ELISA plates. ECD -His protein, concentration 1 μg / mL, incubated overnight at 4℃. Non-specific binding sites were blocked with 5% skim milk powder. After thorough washing, the supernatant of a single phage clone was added to a 96-well plate and incubated at 37℃ for 2 h. After thorough washing, Anti-M13-HRP (GE healtcare, 27-9421-01) was added, and the plate was incubated at 37℃ for 45 min. After thorough washing, TMB was added for color development, and the reaction was incubated at room temperature for 5-10 min. Finally, the reaction was terminated with sulfuric acid, and the OD value of each well was measured at 450 nm.
[0846] As shown in Figure 3, Tables 1 and 2, 108 phage antibody clones specifically binding to human BCMA were obtained by single-clone ELISA. After sequencing, the VHH gene sequence was obtained. Based on sequence repeat frequency and CDR3 classification, 17 phage antibody clones were selected for further verification (the BCMA nanobodies isolated in this application), named NanoBCMA1.0, NanoBCMA3.2, NanoBCMA9.2, NanoBCMA11, NanoBCMA29, NanoBCMA32, NanoBCMA37, NanoBCMA40, NanoBCMA41, NanoBCMA42, NanoBCMA44, NanoBCMA45, NanoBCMA46, NanoBCMA47, NanoBCMA48, NanoBCMA49, and NanoBCMA54.

[0849] Example 2. Targeting BCMA V H Construction, eukaryotic expression, purification, and identification of H-hFc fusion antibodies
[0850] Phage antibody clones NanoBCMA1.0, ..., NanoBCMA49 and NanoBCMA54, along with the positive control antibody BB2121, were redesigned and constructed into a eukaryotic expression vector containing IgG1 Fc. Primers were designed to amplify the phage antibody clone VHH by PCR. The PCR product was then recombinantly cloned into the pcDNA3.4-hFc vector, which was digested with SfiI and NotI restriction endonucleases. After confirming correct Sanger sequencing, the plasmid was transfected into Expi293 cells for transient expression. The protein was purified using a Protein A affinity column. The BCMA VHH-hFc proteins of the antibody and the positive control antibody were subjected to HPLC-SEC and SDS-PAGE for monomer purity identification, as shown in Figures 4 and 5 and Table 3. The overall monomer purity of the purified proteins was high, which can be used for subsequent protein-level functional identification.

[0852] Example 3. Detection of BCMA-targeting nanobody binding activity to BCMA protein using ELISA
[0853] The binding activity of BCMA VHH-hFc prepared in Example 2 to BCMA protein was determined using an ELISA assay. In short, human BCMA was... ECD- His protein was diluted to a final concentration of 1 μg / mL, 100 μL / well, and coated onto a 96-well ELISA plate. The plate was then incubated overnight at 4°C. Wash the ELISA plate three times with PBST (0.05% TWEEN-20), and block the ELISA plate with 5% skim milk powder at room temperature for 1 hour. After blocking, wash the ELISA plate three times with PBST, and add serially diluted NanoBCMA1-hFc, NanoBCMA3.2-hFc, ..., NanoBCMA53-hFc and NanoBCMA54-hFc, positive controls hBCMA22-hFc and BB21221-hFc, and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours. After washing the ELISA plate three times with PBST, add Goat Anti-human IgG Fc-HRP (1:5000) and incubate at room temperature for 1 hour. After washing the ELISA plate seven times with PBST, add TMB for color development, incubate at room temperature in the dark for 5 minutes, and terminate the reaction with ELISA stop solution. Measure the OD value of each well at 450 nm using a microplate reader.
[0854] As shown in Figure 6 and Table 4, the exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobodies exhibit varying degrees of binding activity with the BCMA protein. 50 The numerical range was 0.03071-0.2149 μg / mL, OD 450 The highest values range from 2.376 to 3.233, EC 50 The values were all lower than the positive control BB2121-hFc (0.2274 μg / mL), among which NanoBCMA1.0-hFc (OD 450 =3.233), NanoBCMA29-hFc(OD 450 =2.844), NanoBCMA37-hFc(OD 450 =2.820) The highest binding signal thresholds were all higher than those of the positive control BB2121-hFc (OD) 450 =2.666), indicating that the BCMA antibody prepared in this application has high binding activity to BCMA protein.

[0856] Example 4. Detection of BCMA receptor expression level in human myeloma cell lines
[0857] The expression levels of BCMA antigen on the surface of K562, MOLP8, MM.1S and NCIH929 cells were detected by quantitative flow cytometry. The positive rate and molecular weight of BCMA expression in target cells were detected by BD flow cytometer using PE anti-human BCMA (570546, BD Biosciences) antibody staining and flow cytometry quantitative kit (340495, BD Biosciences).
[0858] As shown in Figure 7, the negative control cell K562 basically does not express BCMA target antigen, while wild-type human myeloma cell lines MOLP8, MM.1S and NCIH929 cells specifically express BCMA target antigen, and the expression efficiency is all above 80%. Among them, the abundance of BCMA antigen expression on the surface of NCIH929 cells is higher than that of MOLP8 and MM.1S, with the number of antigen molecules reaching as high as 365,400 per cell.
[0859] Example 5. Detection of the binding activity of BCMA-targeting nanobodies to target cells with different BCMA antigen expression abundances.
[0860] Based on flow cytometry fluorescence sorting (FACS), an iQue Screener flow cytometer (purchased from IntelliCyt) was used to measure NanoBCMA1-hFc, ..., NanoBCMA53-hFc, NanoBCMA54-hFc, hBCMA22-hFc, and B38MV. H H1-hFc, B38MV H The binding activities of H2-hFc and LCARB38M-hFc with target cell lines CHO-hBCMA, NCIH929, and MOLP8 with different BCMA target antigen expression levels were investigated. In short, PBS containing 0.1% BSA was used as a buffer to prepare a final concentration of 1x10⁻⁶. 6 Target cells (CHO-hBCMA, NCIH929, MOLP8) were added to 96-well conical plates (corning 3894), 30 μL per well. 100 nM antibody was prepared and serially diluted 2.5 or 3-fold to create 11 concentration gradients. 30 μL of each antibody concentration was added to the plated target cells and mixed thoroughly. The cells were incubated at 4°C for 1 h. 150 μL of buffer was added to each well, centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min, and the supernatant was discarded. The cells were then gently shaken to loosen the cells. The washing was repeated once. 30 μL of flow cytometry secondary antibody (ab98593) was prepared at a 1:200 ratio using buffer and added to each well. The cells were then incubated at 4°C for 30 min. 150 μL of buffer was added to each well, centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min, and the supernatant was discarded. The cells were then gently shaken to loosen the cells. The washing was repeated once. 35 μL of buffer was added to each well and mixed thoroughly before flow cytometry analysis.
[0861] As shown in Figures 8-10 and Table 5, on CHO-hBCMA target cells with high BCMA antigen expression abundance, EC 50 The numerical range was 0.3389–9.73 μg / mL; on NCIH929 target cells with relatively high BCMA antigen expression abundance, EC 50 The numerical range was 0.10–7.30 μg / mL; on MOLP8 target cells with relatively low BCMA antigen expression abundance, EC 50 The values ranged from 0.04892 to 2.18 μg / mL, and the negative control PBS showed no binding activity. In summary, the exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobody exhibits binding activity and affinity with target cell lines expressing different BCMA target antigens.

The binding kinetics of NanoBCMA1-hFc, NanoBCMA3.2-hFc, ..., NanoBCM49-hFc, and NanoBCMA54-hFc to BCMA were measured. ECD - Affinity to His proteins. In short, using PBS (FB buffer) containing 0.1% BSA and 0.02% TWEEN-20 as a buffer, BCMA... ECD - Dilute His protein to 50 nM and add 200 μL / well to a 96-well microplate; add serially diluted NanoBCMA1-hFc, NanoBCMA3.2-hFc, ..., NanoBCMA49-hFc and NanoBCMA54-hFc samples, 200 μL / well; immobilize BCMA using a HISK sensor. ECD -His protein was bound for 3 min; then bound to a 2-fold diluted antibody solution for 3 min, followed by dissociation for 5 min. The obtained data were analyzed using Octet Data Analysis 10.0 software (Fortebio) (Langmuir, local fitting, 1:1 binding model) to calculate the antibody-antigen affinity KD value, binding constant Ka (1 / Ms) value, and dissociation constant Kd (1 / s) value.
[0865] As shown in Figure 11 and Table 6, the regression equation for the detection of exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobodies exhibits a goodness-of-fit R² value greater than 95% for the sample data points, indicating a reliable detection model. The exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobodies possess varying levels of affinity. The affinity of NanoBCMA9.2-hFc, NanoBCMA29-hFc, and NanoBCMA37-hFc ranges from 3.28E-10M to 6.72E-11M, while the affinity of the remaining BCMA-targeting nanobodies is on the order of -10. Overall, the BCMA-targeting nanobodies exhibit high sequence affinity.

[0869] 7.1 Epitope peptide binding activity
[0870] Human BCMA (UniPro identifier: Q02223-1) is a single-pass transmembrane protein of 184 amino acids in length. As shown in Table 7, human BCMA consists of an extracellular domain (ECD, amino residues 1-54), a transmembrane domain (TM, amino residues 55-77), and a cytoplasmic domain (CD, amino residues 78-184). The UniProt database (https: / / www.uniprot.org / uniprotkb / Q02223 / entry) shows that three disulfide bonds (Cys-Cys) are formed at positions 8-21, 24-37, and 28-41 on the ECD of BCMA. The secondary structure of BCMA ECD, from the N-terminus to the C-terminus, consists of β chains (AA12-15), turns (AA16-19), β chains (AA20-23), helices (AA24-27), β chains (AA30-32), helices (AA35-37), turns (AA38-40), and turns (AA42-44). The crystal structure of human BCMA ECD is shown in Figure 12.

[0872] Table 8. Human BCMA ECD Linearized epitope polypeptide sequence
[0873] According to the BCMA diagramECD The crystal structure and amino acid sequence and position of human BCMA are shown in Table 7 and Table 8. Linear BCMA epitope peptides (BCEP001-BCEP007) were designed and synthesized by Genscript Biotech Co., Ltd., followed by N-terminal biotinylation. The binding activity of NanoBCMA1-hFc, NanoBCMA3.2-hFc, ..., NanoBCMA49-hFc and NanoBCMA54-hFc to the linearized BCMA epitope peptides was determined using an ELISA assay. In summary, the synthesized BCEP001-BCEP007 epitope peptides were diluted to a final concentration of 1 μg / mL with PBS, and 200 μL / well was coated onto 96-well ELISA plates and incubated overnight at 4°C. Wash the plate three times with PBST (0.05% TWEEN-20), and block the ELISA plate with 0.5% BSA at room temperature for 2 hours. After blocking, wash the ELISA plate three times with PBST, and add 100 nM final concentrations of NanoBCMA1-hFc, NanoBCMA3.2-hFc, ..., NanoBCMA49-hFc and NanoBCMA54-hFc to two copies, and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours. After washing the ELISA plate three times with PBST, add 100 μL of Goat Anti-human IgG Fc-HRP (1:8000) to each well and incubate at room temperature for 1 hour. After washing the ELISA plate seven times with PBST, add TMB for color development, and incubate at room temperature in the dark for 5-10 minutes. Terminate the reaction with ELISA stop solution, and measure the absorbance of each well at 450 nm using a microplate reader.
[0874] As shown in Figure 13, among the exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobodies, NanoBCMA1-hFc, NanoBCMA3.2-hFc, and NanoBCMA11-hFc exhibit the strongest binding activity to the BCEP002 peptide (amino acids 8-21 of BCMA ECD), mainly containing secondary structures of β-chain (AA12-15), turn (AA16-19), and β-chain (AA20-23); NanoBCMA29-hFc exhibits the strongest binding activity to the BCEP005 peptide (amino acids 24-42 of BCMA ECD), mainly containing secondary structures of helix (AA24-27), β-chain (AA30-32), helix (AA35-37), and turn (AA38-40); NanoBCMA32-hFc, NanoBCMA37-hFc, and NanoBCMA40-hFc exhibit binding activity to multiple linearized epitopes. In summary, different exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobodies exhibit different binding epitopes. Combining BCMA nanobodies with different or partially overlapping epitopes can produce dual or multi-epitope binding antibodies, which can generate synergistic or enhanced efficacy.

ECD -His protein, 200 μL / well; BCMA immobilized using a HISK sensor. ECD The HISK sensor immobilized the BCMA protein, which was then saturated with NanoBCMA9.2-hFc, hBCMA22-hFc, NanoBCMA1-hFc, NanoBCMA3.2-hFc, and NanoBCMA11-hFc, respectively. Using NanoBCMA9.2-hFc as an example, the HISK sensor immobilized BCMA. ECD After binding to the His protein, NanoBCMA9.2-hFc was pre-saturated. After washing, it was re-bound with NanoBCMA1-hFc, NanoBCMA3.2-hFc, and NanoBCMA11-hFc, respectively. The presence of affinity binding activity of NanoBCMA1-hFc, NanoBCMA3.2-hFc, and NanoBCMA11-hFc after saturation binding with NanoBCMA9.2-hFc was evaluated. As a control, NanoBCMA9.2-hFc was also bound simultaneously to assess complete saturation binding. Similarly, saturation binding identification of other exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobodies was performed. The obtained data were analyzed using Octet Data Analysis 10.0 software (Fortebio) to calculate the antibody-antigen binding strength, affinity KD value, binding constant Ka (1 / Ms), and dissociation constant Kd (1 / s).
[0877] As shown in Figure 14, after saturation binding of NanoBCMA9.2-hFc, hBCMA22-hFc maintained its binding activity, with a response value of 0.3427. This may be because the binding epitope of hBCMA22-hFc is different from that of NanoBCMA9.2 antigen, and the binding does not interfere with each other; or it may be that the epitope is the same, but hBCMA22 has higher affinity and competes for binding to BCMA. ECD-His protein; other exemplary nanobodies do not exhibit affinity binding activity. As shown in Figure 15, after saturation binding of hBCMA22-hFc, NanoBCMA9.2-hFc shows no affinity binding activity, with a response value of 0.0244. This may be due to the same epitope as the NanoBCMA9.2 antigen-binding epitope, or spatial conflict and overlap of epitopes. As shown in Table 9, BCMA ECD - After the His protein saturates and binds to NanoBCMA26-hFc and NanoBCMA28-hFc, LCARB38M exhibits binding activity with response values of 0.1167 and 0.2143, respectively. This suggests that NanoBCMA26, NanoBCMA28, and LCARB38M have different antigen-binding epitopes and exhibit epitope differences. Combining BCMA nanobodies with different or partially overlapping epitopes can produce dual or multi-epitope binding antibodies, which can generate synergistic or enhanced efficacy.
[0878] Table 9. Identification of differential SPR epitopes of BCMA-targeting nanobodies
[0879] 7.3 FCM competitive binding activity
[0880] Competitive binding assays using flow cytometry were used to verify the differential epitopes between different BCMA-targeting nanobodies. In summary, exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobodies were biotinylated using a biotinylation kit (ab201795, Abcam), and the labeling efficiency was verified by Fortebio. As shown in Figure 16 and Table 10, NanoBCMA1-hFc, NanoBCMA9.2-hFc, and NanoBCMA37-hFc were successfully biotinylated, and EC50 binding between the BCMA-targeting nanobodies and target cells was obtained. 50 and EC 80 The numerical value (μg / mL) corresponds to EC 80 Antibodies at a given concentration are defined as saturating antibodies, and antibodies that are used to identify epitope differences are defined as competitive antibodies.
[0881] According to EC 80 The corresponding saturation antibody concentration and 3x10 4CHO-hBCMA or NCIH929 target cells were incubated for 1 hour. A competitive antibody of 375 nM was prepared using PBS buffer and serially diluted 5-fold to create eight concentration gradients (final concentration 0). The serially diluted competitive recombinant antibody was then added to each well and incubated at 4°C for another 1 hour. After incubation, 140 μL of buffer was added to each well, centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min, and the supernatant was discarded. The cells were washed once. Based on the antibody tag, APC-streptavidin or PE-anti-mouse Fc fluorescent secondary antibody was prepared at a 1:200 ratio using buffer. 30 μL of this antibody was added to each well and mixed, then incubated at 4°C for 30 min. 170 μL of buffer was added to each well, centrifuged at 300 g for 5 min, and the supernatant was discarded. The cells were washed once. 35 μL of buffer was added to each well and mixed before analysis using an iQue Screener flow cytometer. As a control, following the same procedure described above, serially diluted competitive antibodies were directly incubated with CHO-hBCMA or NCIH929 target cells in the absence of saturating antibodies to detect the binding activity of the competitive antibodies to CHO-hBCMA or NCIH929 target cells in the absence of saturating antibodies.
[0882] As shown in Figure 17, after co-incubating Biotin-NanoBCMA29 with different candidate antibodies, the binding activity of Biotin-NanoBCMA29 and CHO-hBCMA in the co-incubation system was detected by APC-streptavidin. It can be seen that the exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobodies that did not completely compete for the binding of Biotin-NanoBCMA29 to CHO-hBCMA cells include NanoBCMA1, NanoBCMA3.2, NanoBCMA11, and NanoBCMA37, indicating that these antibodies may have different antigen-binding epitopes with NanoBCMA29, and their binding does not interfere with each other. It can also be seen that the exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobodies that completely compete for the binding of Biotin-NanoBCMA29 to CHO-hBCMA cells include NanoBCMA9.2, indicating that this antibody may have the same antigen-binding epitope as NanoBCMA29 and have higher affinity or a larger antigenic epitope than NanoBCMA29, indicating epitope overlap and conflict. As shown in Figure 18, NanoBCMA9.2 competitively binds to the other candidate antibodies. Among them, NanoBCMA1, NanoBCMA3.2, NanoBCMA11, NanoBCMA29, and NanoBCMA37 failed to fully compete for the binding of NanoBCMA9.2 to CHO-hBCMA cells, suggesting that they may have different binding epitopes than NanoBCMA29.
[0883] Table 10. EC50 and EC80 values (μg / mL) of BCMA-targeting nanobodies binding to target cells.
[0884] In summary, the exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobody targets the BCMA target antigen and has different antigen recognition epitopes. The inventors' research shows that by simultaneously binding to different epitopes of the same antigen, the sensitivity and binding ability to specific target cells can be significantly enhanced, tumors can be cleared more efficiently, the clinical treatment effect of hematologic malignancies can be improved, side effects can be reduced, and safety can be guaranteed.
[0885] Example 8. Detection of the polymerization structure of BCMA-targeting nanobodies under antigen induction
[0886] Size exclusion chromatography (SEC) was used with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to determine NanoBCMA1-hFc, NanoBCMA3.2-hFc, ..., NanoBCMA49-hFc and NanoBCMA54-hFc in BCMA. ECD -The polymerized structure formed under the induction of His protein. In short, through preliminary experiments, an antibody-to-antigen molar molecular weight ratio of 1:9 was selected. Based on the theoretical molecular weights of the antigen and antibody, the corresponding concentration of BCMA was prepared using 1xPBS buffer. ECD -His protein and NanoBCMA1-hFc, NanoBCMA3.2-hFc, ..., NanoBCMA49-hFc, NanoBCMA54-hFc; BCMA ECD The His protein and nanobody were mixed thoroughly in a 1.5 mL EP tube to form a complex; the mixture was shaken at 300 rpm for 2 min and then incubated at 37 °C for 60 min; the tube was then flushed with pure water at a flow rate of 2 mL / min for 30 min using a high-performance liquid chromatograph, the knob was tightened, and the tube was flushed at a flow rate of 0.5 mL / min for 30 min; the tube was then flushed with PBS at a flow rate of 1 mL / min for 1 h to equilibrate; 100 μL of the antigen-antibody complex after co-incubation was added to the HPLC built-in tube (avoiding air bubbles), the injection volume was set to 20 μL, and the sample was loaded for analysis.
[0887] Figure 19 illustrates exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobodies NanoBCMA1.0, NanoBCMA29, and BCMA. ECD -His binds in a monomeric form, and due to the bivalent structure of hFc, it can bind to two BCMAs simultaneously. ECD -His molecule; NanoBCMA9.2 and BCMA ECD -His binding occurs in a larger form than monomeric forms. In summary, different exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobodies and BCMA...ECD -His target proteins bind in different stoichiometric ratios. According to relevant research reports, the potential for polymerization of nanobodies under antigen induction is positively correlated with their expected therapeutic effects.
[0888] Example 9. Specificity evaluation of BCMA-targeting nanobodies
[0889] Based on flow cytometry fluorescence sorting (FACS) technology, exemplary BCMA V was measured using an iQue Screener flow cytometer (purchased from IntelliCyt). H The binding activity of H antibody to BCMA antigen-negative cell lines was investigated. In short, PBS containing 0.1% BSA was used as a buffer to prepare a final concentration of 1x10⁻⁶. 6 Target cell lines (in this example, normal or tumor cells that do not express BCMA antigen, such as human gastric epithelial cell line GES-1, human microvascular endothelial cell line HMEC-1, human pancreatic ductal epithelial cell line HPDE6-C7, human fibroblast cell line HS-27A, human ovarian surface epithelial cell line IOSE-80, human prostate cancer cell line PC-3, human urinary tract epithelial cell line SV-HUC-1, etc.) were added to 96-well conical plates. 3894), 30 μL per well; prepare detection antibody at a concentration of 200 nM, and serially dilute 5-fold to form 11 concentration gradients; add 30 μL of antibody at different concentrations per well to the plated target cells and mix well; incubate at 4°C for 1 h; add 150 μL of buffer to each well, centrifuge at 300 g for 5 min, discard the supernatant and loosen the cells by shaking; repeat washing once; prepare fluorescent secondary antibody (ab98593) at a 1:200 ratio using buffer, add 30 μL to each well to the cells and mix well, incubate at 4°C for 30 min; add 150 μL of buffer to each well, centrifuge at 300 g for 5 min, discard the supernatant and loosen the cells by shaking; repeat washing once; add 35 μL of buffer to each well, mix well, and then detect using flow cytometry.
[0890] As shown in Figure 20, the exemplary BCMA-targeting nanobody prepared in this application has virtually no non-specific binding with non-specific target cells, indicating that the antibody sequence has high specificity and a low off-target possibility, and can be used for in vivo and in vitro biological function verification at the CAR-T cell level.
[0891] Example 10. Construction of BCMA-specific chimeric antigen receptor lentiviral expression vector
[0892] The CAR lentiviral core empty vector plasmid (self-constructed by Yuanqi Biotechnology, containing the Ori2 novel element, hereinafter referred to as the CAR lentiviral empty vector) was double-digested with SphI (Cat.#R3182L, NEB) and NotI (Cat.#R3189L, NEB) restriction endonucleases to generate linearized fragments. After gel recovery, the fragments were mixed with the VHH fragments of NanoBCMA1.0, NanoBCMA3.2, NanoBCMA9.2, NanoBCMA11, NanoBCMA29, NanoBCMA32, NanoBCMA37, NanoBCMA49 and NanoBCMA54 obtained in Example 1 at a molar ratio of 1:3 for homologous recombination. The mixture was then transformed into DH5α competent cells, plated on kanamycin-resistant plates, and incubated overnight in an inverted CO2 incubator at 37°C. Single colonies were then picked and sequenced for identification. Figure 21 shows the components and their connection order in CAR lentiviral empty vectors and BCMA-specific CAR-Ori2 vectors (named NanoBCMA1.0-Ori2, NanoBCMA3.2-Ori2, NanoBCMA9.2-Ori2, NanoBCMA11-Ori2, NanoBCMA29-Ori2, NanoBCMA32-Ori2, NanoBCMA37-Ori2, NanoBCMA49-Ori2 and NanoBCMA54-Ori2, or named NanoBCMA1.0, NanoBCMA3.2, NanoBCMA9.2, NanoBCMA11, NanoBCMA29, NanoBCMA32, NanoBCMA37, NanoBCMA49 and NanoBCMA54).
[0893] Example 11. Packaging and titer determination of BCMA-specific chimeric antigen receptor lentivirus
[0894] The lentiviral vector system used to construct this invention is a third-generation system, consisting of four plasmids, as shown in Figure 22: the PRH1 plasmid encoding the Gag-Pol protein, the PMH2 plasmid encoding the envelope protein VSV-G, the PVH3 plasmid encoding the Rev protein, and a CD38 VHH core plasmid. The expression of the CAR gene in each CAR lentiviral plasmid is regulated by the elongation factor-1α (EF-1α) promoter. The lentiviral packaging process is as follows: 1x10 6293T cells were suspended in 2 mL of DMEM medium containing 10% FBS and cultured overnight in 6-well plates. 345 μL of the original medium was aspirated, and 345 μL of Opti-MEM medium (50 times the plasmid mass) containing 6.90 μg of packaging plasmid (PRH1:PMH2:PVH3:core plasmid = 2:1:1:2) and 20.7 μL of FuGENEHD transfection reagent (Cat.#E2311, Promega) was added evenly. The mixture was gently mixed and incubated at 37°C for 12 hours in a CO2 incubator. The plasmid-containing medium was removed, and the cells were washed once with PBS and replaced with 2 mL of DMEM medium containing 5% FBS. The cells were cultured for 48 hours. 2 mL of viral supernatant was collected, centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 min, aliquoted, and stored at -80°C for later use. The viral titer was also determined.
[0895] When the positive rate of each test tube minus the negative control is 5%-20%, the results are usable, i.e.:
[0896] The titers of the aforementioned CAR viruses containing VHH ranged from 5 to 10 × 10⁻⁶. 6 TU / mL.
[0897] Example 12. Preparation of CAR-T cells and lentiviral infection
[0898] In this embodiment, CD3 microbeads reagent kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Cat. #130-097-043) was used to sort CD3 in PBMCs. + T cells, specifically, were revived using PBMCs (Ficoll density gradient centrifugation), centrifuged at 500g for 5 minutes to remove cryopreservation medium. They were then treated with 1×10⁻⁶ cells. 7 Resuspend the cells in 80 μL of pre-cooled sorting buffer. Repeat at a rate of 1 × 10⁶ cells / mL. 7 Add 20 μL of LCD3 magnetic beads to the total cell count and mix thoroughly. Incubate at 4°C for 15 min. After incubation, repeat the process at 1×10⁻⁶ cells / mL. 7 Add 1.5 mL of pre-cooled sorting buffer to the total cell count, centrifuge at 500 g for 5 min, and discard the supernatant. Repeat at 1 × 10⁻⁶. 7 Resuspend the cells in 0.1 mL of room temperature separation buffer, mix thoroughly by pipetting, and transfer the cell suspension to a rinsed LS separation column (placed under a magnetic field). Collect CD3+ T cells, mix thoroughly, centrifuge at 500 g for 5 min, discard the supernatant, and adjust the cell density to 1.25 × 10⁻⁶ cells in X-VIVO complete medium. 6 T cells were activated by adding CD3 / CD28 DynaBeads magnetic beads at a cell number:bead number ratio of 1:3. The cells were cultured at 37°C and 5% CO2. PBMCs were then sorted using CD3-positive magnetic beads to obtain CD3-positive DynaBeads with a purity >95%.+ T cells.
[0899] This will activate CD3 for 24 hours. + T lymphocytes were collected in 50 mL centrifuge tubes, centrifuged at 500 g for 5 min, the culture supernatant was discarded, and the cells were resuspended in X-VIVO complete medium for counting. The cells were counted at a rate of 7 × 10⁻⁶ cells / mL. 5 The total cell count was determined, and cells were seeded into 12-well plates with a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 3. The required volume of lentivirus was added, and polybrene reagent was added to a final concentration of 10 μg / mL. The mixture was thoroughly mixed, centrifuged at 1200 rpm for 60 min, and cultured at 37°C with 5% CO2. After 24 h, cells were collected, centrifuged at 500 g for 5 min to remove the supernatant, and resuspended in X-VIVO complete medium to adjust the cell density to 5-7 × 10⁶ cells / well. 5 The cells were inoculated at a concentration of 10 cells / mL into 12-well cell culture plates and cultured at 37°C with 5% CO2.
[0900] Example 13. Detection of CAR gene expression efficiency and in vitro amplification
[0901] 13.1 CAR gene expression detection
[0902] CD3 / CD28 DynaBeads-activated T cells, after lentiviral infection and 72 hours of culture, were used to detect the T cell CAR gene expression efficiency, as follows:
[0903] (1) Mix the cells, count the AO / PI ratio, and detect the CAR-T cell density. Take 4×10⁶ cells. 5 The total number of cells was transferred to a flow cytometry tube, 2 mL of 1xPBS (containing 2% FBS) buffer was added, the mixture was vortexed and centrifuged at 1600 rpm for 5 min.
[0904] (2) Remove the supernatant and resuspend the cells in 50 μL of 1xPBS (containing 2% FBS) buffer.
[0905] (3) Add 1 μL of APC-labeled BCMA-His antibody, mix thoroughly, and incubate at 4°C for 30 min.
[0906] (4) Add 1 mL of 1xPBS (containing 2% FBS) buffer to wash, vortex to mix, and centrifuge at 1600 rpm for 5 min.
[0907] (5) Wash once more.
[0908] (6) Resuspend in 300 μL of 1xPBS (containing 2% FBS) buffer, mix thoroughly, and then perform detection.
[0909] As shown in Figures 23 and 24, after activation and amplification, the CAR positivity rate of T cells 72 hours after BCMA-specific CAR lentivirus infection ranged from 24% to 94%; and the CAR gene was stably expressed on T cells at different time points, with no significant differences among the groups.
[0910] 13.2 In vitro expansion of CAR-T cells
[0911] CAR-T cells activated by CD3 / CD28 DynaBeads were infected with lentivirus and passaged according to culture times Day 5, Day 7, Day 9, and Day 12. After thorough mixing of the CAR-T cells, 20 μL of the cell suspension was transferred to a 1.5 mL EP tube, and an equal volume of AO / PI reagent was added. 20 μL of the mixture was then added to a counting chamber, and cell counts were performed using an Auto2000 cell counter against a fluorescent background. Based on the obtained cell density, cell growth was recorded, including cell density, cell viability, and cell diameter, and a growth curve was plotted. Simultaneously, the cell passage density was adjusted to 7 × 10⁶ cells / year. 5 Cells / mL were seeded in 6-well plates and cultured for 10-12 days; data were processed and analyzed using GraphPad 10.0.
[0912] As shown in Figure 25, after in vitro CD3 / CD28 stimulation, the viability of CAR-T cells gradually increased with the extension of culture time, reaching 70-80% by Day 12. As shown in Figure 26, the diameter of CAR-T cells gradually decreased with the extension of culture time, indicating a tendency towards a resting state. The diameters of NanoBCMA1.0-Ori2, NanoBCMA3.2-Ori2, NanoBCMA11-Ori2, and NanoBCMA29-Ori2 cells were close to those of the Mock T control cells by Day 12. As shown in Figure 27, after in vitro CD3 / CD28 stimulation, CAR-T cells proliferated stably and can be used for CAR-T cell functional experiments.
[0913] Example 14. Evaluation of the in vitro targeted killing activity of BCMA CAR-T cells
[0914] CAR-T cells activated by CD3 / CD28 DynaBeads were cultured for 9 days, and their effector killing activity was assessed using the Luciferase Assay System kit (Cat.#E6120, Promega). In summary, the total number of target cells expressing the Luciferase gene was 3.3 x 10⁻⁶. 4Cells were seeded per well in a 96-well plate. The prepared CAR-T cells were pre-tested for positivity and mixed with target cells at different ratios (E:T) of 3:1, 1:1, and 1:3, with three replicates per group. The cells were co-cultured at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator for 24 hours. After co-culture, the cells were thoroughly mixed, and 100 μL of the cell suspension was transferred to an opaque 96-well plate. 100 μL of Luciferase Assay Substrate was added, mixed thoroughly, and incubated at room temperature in the dark for 5 minutes. The luciferase luminescence intensity in the remaining target cells was measured using a multi-functional microplate reader. The killing efficiency was quantitatively assessed using the luciferase in the remaining tumor cells after killing.
[0915] Formula for calculating cell kill ratio:
[0916] As shown in Figure 28, compared with blank Mock T cells, the results showed that the different BCMA-specific CAR-T cells prepared in this application had significant killing activity against MOLP8 target cells, and this activity was gradient-dependent. Among them, at low-efficiency target ratios of 1:3 and 1:9, the exemplary NanoBCMA3.2, NanoBCMA29, and NanoBCMA35 CAR-T cells showed significantly higher killing rates against MOLP8 target cells than the positive control antibody B38MV. H H1, B38MV H H2 (patent CN109153731B).
[0917] Example 15. Assessment of BCMA CAR-T cytokine secretion levels
[0918] Exemplary BCMA-targeted CAR-T cells were cultured in vitro for 9 days, and the levels of CAR-T cytokines IL-2 and IFN-γ were detected using an IL-2 and IFN-γ cytokine ELISA kit from R&D Corporation. The positivity rate and cell density of CAR-T cells were pre-tested. Lentivirally infected CAR-T cells were adjusted with blank T cells to ensure consistent cell counts across groups. CAR-T cells and MM.1S target cells were co-incubated at an effector-to-target ratio of 1:1, with a total CAR-positive cell count of 3 × 10⁻⁶ cells. 4 The total number of MM.1S cells was 3 × 10⁻⁶. 4Each group was set up with 3 replicates. After incubation for 24 hours, the plates were centrifuged at 250g for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was collected. The cytokine secretion levels were detected using the corresponding IL-2 and IFN-γ ELISA kits. In short, the captured antibody was coated onto a 96-well ELISA plate at a concentration of 1 μg / mL and incubated overnight at 4°C. Non-specific binding sites were blocked with 5% skim milk powder. After thorough washing, the supernatant of the sample, diluted 3 times, was added to the 96-well plate and incubated at room temperature for 2 hours. After thorough washing, biotinylated detection antibody working solution (100 μL / well) was added and incubated at room temperature for 2 hours. After thorough washing, enzyme conjugate working solution (100 μL / well) was added and incubated at room temperature in the dark for 20 minutes. After thorough washing, TMB chromogenic reagent (100 μL / well) was added and incubated at room temperature in the dark for 20 minutes. Finally, ELISA stop solution (50 μL / well) was added, and the OD value of each well was measured at 450 nm.
[0919] As shown in Figures 29 and 30, under MOLP8 target cell stimulation, the IL-2 and IFN-γ secretion levels of the different BCMA-specific CAR-T cells (NanoBCMA3.2, NanoBCMA9.2, NanoBCMA29, and NanoBCMA37) prepared in this application were all higher than those of the Mock T cell group; and compared with the positive control antibody B38MV, the IL-2 and IFN-γ secretion levels were also higher. H H1 and B38MV H In H2, the IFN-γ secretion level of the antibody in this application was significantly enhanced, indicating a strong antigen-specific activation effect of CAR-T cells.
[0920] Example 16. Assessment of BCMA CAR-T cell targeted proliferation capacity
[0921] In this embodiment, untreated MM.1S cells were used as target cells for the detection of BCMA-specific CAR-T cell targeting proliferation. CAR-T cells activated by CD3 / CD28 DynaBeads and control Mock T cells were infected with lentivirus, and their targeting proliferation capacity was detected according to culture time Day 9 or Day 12. The CAR positivity rate of each group was detected in advance, and then the CAR positivity rate of each group was adjusted to be consistent using blank effector T cells (the culture medium was X-VIVO without any additives). 15(Blank culture medium). CAR-T cells and MM.1S cells were subjected to the first round of targeted stimulation at an effector-to-target ratio of 1:1. After co-incubation for 4-5 days, all cells were collected, and cell counts were performed using AO / PI reagents. Cell density and cell diameter were measured. Then, a second round of targeted stimulation was performed at a ratio of 1:3 (CAR-T cells:MM.1S cells). After another 4-5 days of co-incubation, a third round of targeted stimulation was performed (the ratio of the two cell types was the same as in the second round). During the three rounds of targeted stimulation, an appropriate amount of X-VIVO was added every 1-2 days according to cell growth. 15 Blank culture medium. Count the number of CAR-T cells in each round and plot the proliferation curve.
[0922] As shown in Figures 31-33, in the CAR-T and MM.1S target cell co-incubation system, all CAR-T cell groups were able to effectively kill tumor cells, while the Mock T cell control group still had a relatively high proportion of target cells remaining. In addition, under repeated stimulation by target cells, the CAR positivity rate of CAR-T cells in each group was upregulated and maintained, among which the NanoBCMA11 CAR positivity rate was relatively high.
[0923] Example 17. Study on BCMA CAR-T cell subtypes and phenotypes
[0924] This embodiment uses flow cytometry (FACS) to detect CAR-T cell phenotype, providing an important immune monitoring indicator for CAR-T cell therapy. In short, CD3+ activation after lentiviral infection... + After T cells achieved positive BCMACAR expression, their subtypes, memory phenotypes, activation phenotypes, and exhaustion phenotypes were detected on Day 9 of co-culture. Effector CAR-T cells were collected at the corresponding culture days, and appropriate cell counts were analyzed by flow cytometry for CD3 content in each group. + T cell subtype markers: including CD3-PB, CD4-APC, and CD8-Percpcy5.5; detection of CD3 in each group + Memory markers in T cells: including the proportion of CD4-APC, CD8-Percpcy5.5, CD45RA-BV510, CCR7-PE, and CD95-PECY7 cells, for activated T cells (CD3+). + CD95 + CD45RA and CCR7 can be used as the minimum marker combination to distinguish memory T cells at different stages, specifically classifying them into T cells. SCM (CD45RA + CCR7 + ), T CM (CD45RA - CCR7 +), T EM (CD45RA - CCR7 - ), T EFF (CD45RO + CCR7 - ); Detect CD3 in each group + Activating markers in T cells: including the proportion of CD3-BV510, CD137-PE, CD25-PE-CY7, and CD69-APC cells; detection of CD3 in each group. + Exhaustion markers in T cells: including the proportion of CD3-Percpcy5.5, PD-1-BV421, LAG-3-AF647, and TIM-3-BV510 cells.
[0925] As shown in Figures 34 and 35, the CD4 / CD8 ratios of BCMA-specifically targeted CAR-T cells from different groups were similar. At Day 9 of in vitro culture, the overall cell type was biased towards the CD4 subtype, with no significant differences between groups. As shown in Figures 36 and 37, at Day 9 of CAR-T cell culture, NanoBCMA29 CAR-T cells exhibited higher stem cell memory (T... SCM ) phenotype, lower central memory T cells (T CM The CAR-T cells exhibit a low degree of T cell differentiation. As shown in Figure 38, during Day 9 of CAR-T cell culture, the expression levels of the CAR-T cell activation markers CD137, CD25, and CD69 (NanoBCMA3.2, NanoBCMA11, and NanoBCMA29) were relatively low, indicating low T cell activation and a low-self-activation phenotype advantage. As shown in Figure 39, during Day 9 of CAR-T cell culture, the expression levels of the CAR-T cell exhaustion markers LAG-3 and TIM-3 (NanoBCMA29) were relatively low, indicating low T cell exhaustion and a low-exhaustion phenotype advantage.
[0926] Example 18. Construction of anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cell lentiviral expression vector
[0927] To obtain anti-BCMACAR-T cell products with stronger affinity and better anti-tumor effects, we combined six antibody sequences—NanoBCMA1.0, NanoBCMA3.2, NanoBCMA9.2, NanoBCMA11, NanoBCMA29, and NanoBCMA37—that exhibited good target cell killing activity, high targeted proliferation capacity, and low tonic signal levels in in vitro functional validation, with different peptide linkers to construct bivalent VHH CARs with BCMA binding domains. Exemplary bivalent BCMACAR constructs are shown in Table 11. The construct preparation steps are as follows: Specifically, two VHH sequences were fused using (GGGGS)n. Then, the CAR lentiviral core empty vector plasmid (same as in Example 10, self-constructed by Yuanqi Biotechnology, containing the Ori2 novel element, hereinafter referred to as the CAR lentiviral empty vector) was double-digested with SphI and NotI endonucleases (purchased from NEB) to generate a linearized fragment. After gel extraction and recovery, the fragment was mixed with the fused double VHH fragment at a molar ratio of 1:3 for homologous recombination and transformed into DH5α competent cells. Single colonies were picked and sequenced for identification. The connection sequence of the bivalent BCMACAR structure is detailed in Table 11.

[0930] The specific experimental methods for detecting CAR gene expression efficiency and in vitro amplification are as described in Example 13. As shown in Figure 40, when the lentiviral infection multiplicity of infection (MOI) was 3–5, the CAR gene was stably expressed in anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cells from different PBMC-derived T cells, and the transduction efficiency in T cells ranged from 28.4% to 60.1%, which can be used for subsequent CAR-T cell function verification. As shown in Figure 41, the total expansion fold of anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cells after activation and culture for 12 or 14 days was between 100 and 570 times; as shown in Figure 42, the viability of anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cells after activation and culture for 12 or 14 days gradually increased with prolonged culture time, maintaining a cell viability of approximately 95%.
[0931] Example 20. Evaluation of in vitro effector killing activity of anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cells
[0932] CAR-T cells activated by CD3 / CD28 DynaBeads were infected with lentiviruses and subjected to CAR-T cell cytotoxicity experiments at day 9 of culture. MOLP8 cells overexpressing the Luciferase gene were used as target cells. Different effector-target ratios (1:1, 1:3, 1:9) were set, and free BCMA was added to simulate the in vivo microenvironment. The CAR-T cell killing efficiency was assessed, as detailed below:
[0933] (1) Count the target cells MOLP8-Luciferase-puro and, based on the counting results, take 3.3 × 10⁻⁶ cells. 4 Target cells were seeded into 96V plates at 100 μL per well, in duplicate. Blank X-VIVO buffer was used to prepare BCMA-His protein at a concentration of 3333 ng / mL (total required). Target cells were incubated with X-VIVO containing BCMA-His. A control group was also set up (target cells incubated with blank X-VIVO).
[0934] (2) Incubate at 37℃ for 1-2 hours;
[0935] (3) Based on the CAR-T cell count results and positive rate, take out the corresponding number of CAR-T cells and add the required amount of negative CAR-T cells for each group. Centrifuge at 4℃, 500g for 5min, resuspend with X-VIVO15 and plate, 100μL per well, 2 parallel wells.
[0936] (4) The remaining CAR-T cells were serially diluted 3-fold. The diluted CAR-T cells were seeded into the corresponding wells containing target cells at an effector-to-target ratio of 1:3, 100 μL per well, in parallel with two wells.
[0937] (5) Repeat step (5) to lay the corresponding orifice plate with a target ratio of 1:9;
[0938] (6)(7) Incubate at 37℃ and 5% CO2 for 20-24 hours;
[0939] (7) After 24 hours, remove the 96-well plate with the bottom of the v plate, mix the cells, take Steady-Glo out of the -20℃ freezer, transfer 50 μL of the mixed cells to each well of the opaque 96-well plate, and then add 50 μL of Steady-Glo fluorescent agent to each well, taking care to avoid generating bubbles. Incubate for 5 minutes and then read the results with a microplate reader.
[0940] As shown in Figures 43 and 44, in the validation of T cells derived from different PBMCs, compared with blank effector T cells, the results showed that anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cells could specifically kill target cells MOLP8-Luci-puro. In blank culture medium, anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cells showed better killing effect, with a killing efficiency of 40%–60% at an effector-to-target ratio of 1:3. After the addition of free BCMA, although the BCMA sequence function of anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cells was partially blocked, they still retained killing activity.
[0941] Example 21. Detection of anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cytokine secretion
[0942] To evaluate the level of IFN-γ cytokine secreted by anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cells after co-incubation with target cells under conditions of free BCMA and without free BCMA. Anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cells cultured to Day 9 were co-incubated with the BCMA-low-expressing cell line MOLP8 at effector-to-target ratios of 1:1, 1:3, and 1:9, with the MOLP8 cell number fixed at 3.3 × 10⁻⁶ cells / year. 4 Cells were placed per well. Based on the CAR-T cell positivity rate, blank T cells were used to adjust the CAR-T positivity rate of each group to be consistent. Target cells in the group containing free BCMA were pre-incubated with a certain amount of BCMA-his protein for 1-2 hours, with the remaining procedures being the same. The cells were plated according to the experimental settings and co-incubated at 37℃ for 24 hours. After centrifugation at 250g for 5 minutes, the supernatant was collected, and the cytokine secretion level was detected using an IL-2 and IFN-γ cytokine ELISA kit from R&D Company. As shown in Figure 45, under conditions with and without free BCMA, different combinations of bivalent BCMA CAR-T cells, after co-incubation with target cells, all secreted a certain level of IFN-γ cytokine, suggesting the effector function potential of the anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cells prepared in this application.
[0943] Example 22. Targeted proliferation ability of anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cells
[0944] In this embodiment, MOLP8 cells with low BCMA expression were used as the activation target cells to detect the targeted proliferation capacity of CAR-T cells. CAR-T cells activated by CD3 / CD28 DynaBeads and control Mock T cells were infected with lentivirus and their targeted proliferation capacity was detected approximately Day 9 of culture. As shown in Figures 46, 47, and 48, the sustained proliferation and killing capacity of bivalent BCMA CAR-T cells differed under multiple rounds of stimulation by either the BCMA-high expression target cell line MM.1S or the BCMA-low expression target cell line MOLP8. Overall, the bivalent BCMA CAR-T cells with the following combinations showed superior sustained proliferation and killing capacity: 3.2-(G4S)3-29, 29-(G4S)3-3.2, 11-(G4S)3-29, 29-(G4S)1-3.2, 29-(G4S)1-11, 1-(G4S)3-9.2, and 11-(G4S)3-3.2.
[0945] Example 23. In vivo efficacy experiment of anti-BCMA bivalent CAR-T cells in mice
[0946] To simulate the distribution of hematologic malignancies in the human body, and based on in vivo imaging technology, the tumor-reducing and tumor-suppressing effects of bivalent BCMA-specific CAR-T cells were verified in B-NSG mice. Specifically, the experiment included the following groups: a Mock T cell group and a bivalent BCMA-CAR-T cell group. B-NSG mice were injected with MOLP8-Luciferase target cells via the tail vein and randomly divided into groups of 5 mice each according to the bioluminescence intensity. A single dose of pre-frozen and thawed bivalent CAR-T or Mock T cells was injected via the tail vein. After CAR-T infusion, changes in bioluminescence in the mice were observed every Tuesday and Thursday using an animal in vivo imaging system, and the weight and health status of the mice were also observed.
[0947] As shown in Figures 49 and 50, compared with Mock T, bivalent BCMACAR-T cryopreserved cells showed significant anti-tumor activity, greatly reducing the tumor burden in mice, while the mice maintained normal weight and condition, indicating the safety of CAR-T cells.
[0948] Example 24. Design of Multispecific Chimeric Antigen Receptors
[0949] To obtain multispecific chimeric antigen receptor T-cell products with higher intercellular affinity and antitumor activity, we conducted in vitro and in vivo functional validation, selecting antibody sequences such as NanoBCMA1, NanoBCMA3.2, NanoBCMA9.2, NanoBCMA11, or NanoBCMA29 with high specificity, high target cell killing activity, high targeting proliferation capacity, and low tonic signaling levels. We constructed monovalent or bivalent BCMA-targeting CARs using (GGGGS)n (n = 1-5) linkers; and selected 3B5V... H H, 3E7V H H and 4B3V H Antibody sequences such as H are used to construct monovalent or bivalent binding domain GPRC5D-targeting CARs via (GGGGS)n (n = 1 to 5) linkers; the 383F12 antibody sequence is selected to construct a monovalent binding domain CD38-targeting CAR. This embodiment constructs a multispecific chimeric antigen receptor simultaneously targeting BCMA, GPRC5D, and CD38. The chimeric antigen receptor contains a CD8α signal peptide sequence (SP), a single-domain antibody against BCMA, a single-domain antibody against GPRC5D, a single-domain antibody against CD38, a (G4S)n linker (n = 1-5), a hinge region of CD8α or CD28, a transmembrane region sequence of CD8α or CD28 (TM), a 4-1BB or CD28 co-stimulatory domain sequence and a CD3ζ signal transduction domain sequence, a low-density lipoprotein receptor-associated protein or its fragment Ori. Schematic diagrams of the multispecific chimeric antigen receptor structure are shown in Figures 51-58, where the TanM series is consistent with the TriM series.
[0950] Example 25. Expression of GPRC5D, BCMA and CD38 antigens on the surface of target cells
[0951] This embodiment uses the DepMap Data Explorer database (https: / / depmap.org / portal / ) to predict the expression levels of BCMA, GPRC5D, and CD38 antigens on the surface of human myeloma cell lines NCIH929 and MOLP8. Flow cytometry was used to detect the actual expression levels of these cellular antigens. The positive rate of target cell antigen expression was detected by staining with PE-anti-human BCMA, APC-anti-human GPRC5D, and PE-anti-human CD38 antibodies and then by BD flow cytometry.
[0952] As shown in Figure 59, according to predictions from the DepMap Data Explorer database, the NCIH929 and MOLP8 cell lines specifically express GPRC5D, BCMA, and CD38, with differences in expression abundance. As shown in Figure 60, the negative control cells generally do not express BCMA, GPRC5D, and CD38. The human myeloma cell lines NCIH929 and MOLP8 specifically express BCMA and CD38, with differences in expression abundance; specifically, the BCMA antigen expression abundance on the surface of NCIH929 cells is higher than that of MOLP8. Furthermore, the GPRC5D antigen expression positivity rate of the NCIH929 cell line is low, while the expression level of MOLP8 is close to negative.
[0953] Example 26. Construction of a multispecific chimeric antigen receptor lentiviral expression vector
[0954] The construction of the multispecific chimeric antigen receptor lentiviral expression vector is briefly described as follows: The CAR lentiviral core empty vector plasmid (self-constructed by Yuanqi Biotechnology, hereinafter referred to as the CAR lentiviral empty vector) was double-digested with SphI (Cat.#R3182L, NEB) and NotI Cat.#R3189L, NEB to generate a linearized fragment; Nanjing Genscript Biotech Co., Ltd. synthesized a signal peptide sequence (SP) encoding CD8α from the N-terminus to the C-terminus; single-domain antibodies against BCMA NanoBCMA3.2 and / or NanoBCMA11 and / or NanoBCMA29; and single-domain antibodies against GPRC5D... The following nucleic acid sequences were cloned into a linearized lentiviral vector and transformed into DH5α competent cells: 3E7VHH and / or 4B3VHH and / or 3B5VHH; anti-CD38 single-domain antibody 383F12; the hinge region of CD8α or CD28, the transmembrane region (TM) sequence of CD8α or CD28, the co-stimulatory domain sequence of 4-1BB or CD28, and the CD3ζ signal transduction domain sequence; and the nucleic acid sequence of the CAR backbone polypeptide of low-density lipoprotein receptor-associated protein or its fragment Ori. These sequences were then cloned into a linearized lentiviral vector and transformed into DH5α competent cells. Single colonies were picked and sequenced for identification. The cloned multispecific chimeric antigen receptor lentiviral expression vector with correct sequencing results underwent plasmid extraction for subsequent lentiviral packaging.
[0955] Example 27. Packaging and titer determination of multispecific chimeric antigen receptor lentiviruses
[0956] The specific experimental methods for packaging and titer determination of the multispecific chimeric antigen receptor lentivirus are as described in Example 11. Viral titers were evaluated by flow cytometry, as shown in Figure 61. The exemplary multispecific chimeric antigen receptor lentivirus effectively infected 293T cells. The positive expression ratios of BCMA CAR and CD38 CAR were similar, indicating that the 2A self-cleaving peptide has high cleavage efficiency. The titer range of the multispecific CAR lentivirus prepared in this application is 2-10 × 10⁻⁶. 6 TU / mL can be used for CAR-T cell function verification.
[0957] Example 28. Lentiviral infection and preparation of multispecific CAR-T cells
[0958] As an example, the preparation method of CAR-T cells containing BCMA, GPRC5D and CD38 multispecific nanobody sequences and positive control sequences LCAR-B38M (patent CN109153731B), OriC321 (patent WO2023169555A9), and Ori017 (patent WO2023134718A1) is as follows:
[0959] In this embodiment, CD3 microbeads reagent kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Cat. #130-097-043) was used to sort CD3 in PBMCs. + T cells, in short, were revived via PBMC (Ficoll density gradient centrifugation), centrifuged at 500g for 5 minutes to remove cryopreservation medium; then 1 x 10 7 Resuspend the cells in 80 μL of pre-cooled sorting buffer; adjust the ratio to 1 x 10⁻⁶ cells / mL. 7 Add 20 μL of LCD3 MicroBeads to the total cell count, mix thoroughly, and incubate at 4°C for 15 min; after incubation, add 1 x 10⁻⁶ cells. 7 Add 1.5 mL of pre-cooled sorting buffer to the total cell count, centrifuge at 500 g for 5 min and discard the supernatant; then add 1 x 10⁻⁶ cells. 7 The total cell count was resuspended in 0.1 mL of room temperature separation buffer, mixed by pipetting, and the cell suspension was added to a rinsed LS separation column (placed in a magnetic field) to collect CD3+. + T cells were thoroughly mixed, centrifuged at 500g for 5 minutes to remove the supernatant, and the cell density was adjusted to 1.25 x 10⁶ cells / mL with X-VIVO complete medium. 6 T cells were activated by adding CD3 / CD28 DynaBeads at a cell / bead ratio of 1:3 and cultured at 37°C with 5% CO2. Flow cytometry analysis confirmed that PBMCs, after CD3-positive magnetic bead sorting, yielded CD3-positive DynaBeads with a purity >95%. + T cells.
[0960] T cells activated for 24 hours were collected in 50 mL centrifuge tubes, centrifuged at 500g for 5 min, the supernatant was removed, and the cells were resuspended in X-VIVO complete medium for counting. Cells were counted at a ratio of 7 x 10⁻⁶. 5 The total number of cells was determined, and the cells were seeded into 12-well plates with a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 5. The required volume of lentivirus was added, and polybrene reagent was added to a final concentration of 10 μg / mL. The mixture was thoroughly mixed, centrifuged at 1200 rpm for 60 min, and cultured at 37°C with 5% CO2. After 24 h, the cells were collected, centrifuged at 500 g for 5 min to remove the supernatant, and resuspended in X-VIVO complete medium. The cell density was adjusted to 7 x 10⁶ cells / well. 5 The cells / mL were mixed and seeded into 12-well cell culture plates and cultured at 37°C with 5% CO2.
[0961] Example 29. Detection of CAR gene expression efficiency and in vitro amplification in multispecific CAR-T cells
[0962] The specific experimental methods for CAR gene expression efficiency and in vitro amplification detection are as described in Example 13. Results showed that when the lentiviral infection multiplicity MOI was 5, the CAR gene was stably expressed in multispecific CAR-T cells from different PBMC sources, and the CAR gene in T cells... + The transduction efficiency ranged from 20% to 85.19%, with an overall upward trend in the positive rate, which can be used for subsequent CAR-T cell function verification. As shown in Figure 62, the total expansion fold of multispecific CAR-T cells after activation and culture for 11 days was between 60 and 150 times; as shown in Figure 63, the viability of multispecific CAR-T cells after activation and culture for 12 days increased with the extension of culture time, and the overall cell viability remained above 80%.
[0963] Example 30. Evaluation of the in vitro targeted killing activity of multispecific CAR-T cells
[0964] CAR-T cells activated by CD3 / CD28 DynaBeads were cultured for 9 days, and their effector killing activity was assessed using the Luciferase Assay System kit (Cat.#E6120, Promega). In summary, the total number of target cells expressing the Luciferase gene was 3.3 x 10⁻⁶. 4Cells were seeded per well in a 96-well plate. The prepared CAR-T cells were pre-tested for positivity. Effector cells were mixed with target cells at ratios of 3:1, 1:1, and 1:3 (E:T = 3:1, 1:1, 1:3), with three replicates per group. The cells were co-cultured at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator for 24 hours. After co-culture, the cells were thoroughly mixed, and 100 μL of the cell suspension was transferred to an opaque 96-well plate. 100 μL of Luciferase Assay Substrate was added, mixed thoroughly, and incubated at room temperature in the dark for 5 minutes. The luciferase luminescence intensity in the remaining target cells was measured using a multi-functional microplate reader. The killing efficiency was quantitatively assessed using the luciferase in the remaining tumor cells after killing.
[0965] Formula for calculating cell kill ratio:
[0966] As shown in Figures 64-69, in T cells derived from different PBMCs, under conditions of added / unadded free sBCMA protein (20000 ng / mL), compared with blank effector T cells, the results showed that multispecific CAR-T cells could specifically kill target cells NCIH929-Luci-puro and MOLP8-Luci-puro. Furthermore, the exemplary multispecific CAR-T cells exhibited stronger effector activity and were less affected by free sBCMA compared to LCAR-B38M and OriC321 positive control CAR-T cells. Figure 70 shows the effect of exemplary multispecific CAR-T cells on the CD38 target antigen-positive target cell line NCIH929-BCMA. KO GPRC5D KO -CD38 Pos -Luci-puro does not exhibit non-specific killing. Overall, multispecific CAR-T cells showed relatively good killing effects, with a killing efficiency approaching 95% at an effector-to-target ratio of 1:1. The addition of free sBCMA protein to the co-incubation system may block the binding of anti-BCMACAR-T cells to the BCMA receptor on the surface of tumor cells and reduce CAR-T functional activity, while multispecific CAR-T cells still maintained high killing activity.
[0967] Example 31. Assessment of Multispecific CAR-T Cytokine Secretion Levels
[0968] This embodiment aims to detect the cytokine secretion levels of BCMA, GPRC5D, and / or CD38 multispecific CAR-T cells co-incubated with positive target cells in the presence and absence of free BCMA protein. Exemplary multispecific CAR-T cells were cultured in vitro for Day 9, and the levels of CAR-T cytokines IL-2 and IFN-γ were detected using an IL-2 and IFN-γ cytokine ELISA kit from R&D Corporation. The positivity rate and cell density of CAR-T cells were pre-tested. Lentivirally infected CAR-T cells were adjusted with blank T cells to ensure a consistent total cell count across groups. CAR-T cells and MOLP8 target cells were co-incubated at an effector-to-target ratio of 1:1, with the total number of CAR-positive cells set at 3.3 × 10⁻⁶. 4 The total number of MOLP8 cells was 3 × 10⁻⁶. 4 Each group was set up with 3 replicates; the CAR-T cell group containing free BCMA protein was incubated with an appropriate concentration of BCMA-his protein for 1-2 hours in advance, and the rest of the operation was the same. After incubation for 24 hours, the cells were centrifuged at 250g for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was collected. The cytokine secretion was detected by the corresponding IL-2 and IFN-γ ELISA kits.
[0969] As shown in Figures 71-73, in NCIH929, NCIH929-BCMA KO Under stimulation with MOLP8 target cells, the levels of IL-2 and IFN-γ cytokine secretion in multispecific CAR-T cells were higher than those in the Mock T cell group. IFN-γ secretion in all CAR-T groups was significantly higher than in the Mock T cell group. Furthermore, compared to the positive control LCAR-B38M and OriC321 CAR-T groups, multispecific CAR-T cells exhibited comparable or even higher levels of IL-2 and IFN-γ secretion, indicating a strong antigen-specific activation effect. In addition, in the presence of free sBCMA protein, multispecific CAR-T cells maintained a relatively high level of cytokine secretion compared to the positive control CAR-T cells, suggesting that multispecific CAR-T cells can alleviate the inhibitory effect of free sBCMA on CAR-T activity while maintaining antigen-specific activation and cytokine secretion.
[0970] Example 32. Assessment of Multispecific CAR-T Cell Targeted Proliferation Capacity
[0971] In this embodiment, untreated MOLP8-Luci cells were used as target cells for the detection of the targeted proliferation capacity of multispecific CAR-T cells. CD3 / CD28 DynaBeads-activated T cells were infected with lentivirus to prepare CAR-T cells and control Mock T cells. The targeted proliferation capacity of CAR-T cells was detected according to the culture time of Day 9. In short, the CAR positivity rate of each group was detected in advance, and blank T cells were used to adjust the CAR positivity rate of each group to be consistent (the culture medium was X-VIVO without any additives). 15 (Blank culture medium). CAR-T cells and MOLP8-Luci cells were subjected to the first round of targeted stimulation at an effector-to-target ratio of 1:1, with each round lasting 24 hours, for a total of 6 rounds. In rounds 2-6, the same number of target cells were added each round. After each round, the cells in the culture system were thoroughly mixed, and cell counts were performed using AO / PI reagents. Cell density and cell diameter were recorded. Half of the cell volume was then co-incubated with fresh target cells for a new round of targeted stimulation. After each round, the cytotoxic effector activity of multispecific CAR-T cells, the proportion of residual target cells, the CAR-T cell positivity rate, and the abundance of CAR molecule expression were measured.
[0972] Figure 74 shows that the exemplary multispecific CAR-T cells exhibited superior sustained killing ability during co-incubation with different target cells, and were no weaker than LCAR-B38M positive control CAR-T cells. Figure 75 shows that during repeated stimulation by target cells, the CAR gene expression level of the exemplary multispecific CAR-T cells remained relatively stable or showed an increasing trend. Figure 76 shows that during repeated stimulation by target cells, the CAR molecule expression abundance of the exemplary multispecific CAR-T cells was upregulated under initial target cell stimulation and decreased with multiple rounds of target cell stimulation, which is beneficial for maintaining CAR functional stability. Figure 77 shows that during repeated stimulation by target cells, the exemplary multispecific CAR-T cells exhibited varying degrees of targeted proliferation ability, with a proliferation fold of 50-100 times after 6 rounds of repeated stimulation, compared with the control Mock. The significant differences compared to T cells suggest that multispecific CAR-T cells can effectively and rapidly expand in vivo against tumors with low to medium levels of target antigen expression, indicating their potential for sensitivity, effectiveness, and rapid expansion against specific tumor antigens in vivo. As shown in Figures 78-79, during repeated stimulation of target cells, exemplary multispecific CAR-T cells exhibited different levels of IFN-γ and IL-2 cytokine release, revealing the functional activity of CAR-T cells under target cell stimulation.
[0973] Example 33. IL-6 secretion level in a multispecific CAR-T cell co-incubation system with monocytes and target cells.
[0974] CRS (Cytokine Release Syndrome) is caused by the secretion of large amounts of pro-inflammatory cytokines by macrophages or monocytes in response to IFN-γ and possibly related cytokines secreted by CAR-T cells. Studies have found that monocytes are the primary cells mediating CRS by releasing IL-6; therefore, this experiment evaluated the release of IL-6 from CAR-T cells co-cultured with target cells. In short, CD14+ monocytes (M) were isolated from PBMCs using the CD14 MicroBeads kit (Cat.#130-050-201, Miltenyi Biotech), and CD3+ T cells were sorted from the same healthy donor PBMCs for CAR-T production using the CD3 MicroBeads kit (Cat.#130-097-043, Miltenyi Biotech). CAR-T cells cultured alone, target cells, or monocytes were used as negative controls. Multispecific CAR-T cells were co-cultured with target cells and monocytes at an E:T:M ratio of 3:1:1, or with target cells at an E:T ratio of 3:1, or with monocytes at an E:M ratio of 3:1 for 24 hours. The culture medium was then harvested for cytokine quantification and analysis using a human IL-6 kit (Cat.#62HIL06PEG, Cisbio).
[0975] As shown in Figure 80, in the co-culture system of multispecific CAR-T cells, target cells, and monocytes, both multispecific CAR-T cells and the positive control LCAR B38M CAR-T cells induced monocytes to release low levels of IL-6, indicating a low potential risk of CRS. Furthermore, IL-6 release was undetectable in the co-culture of multispecific CAR-T cells and monocytes, suggesting that without specific antigen stimulation, multispecific CAR-T cells do not induce monocytes to release IL-6, further indicating a low potential risk of CRS.
[0976] Example 34. Study on multispecific CAR-T cell subtypes and phenotypes
[0977] This embodiment uses flow cytometry (FACS) to detect multispecific CAR-T cell phenotypes, providing important immune monitoring indicators for CAR-T cell therapy. In short, CD3+ activation after lentiviral infection... + CAR-T cells were prepared from T cells. After obtaining positive CAR expression detection, the memory phenotype of the cells was detected on Day 9 of culture: effector CAR-T cells corresponding to the corresponding culture days were collected, and an appropriate number of cells were used for flow cytometry to detect CD3 in each group. + T cell subtype markers: including CD3-PB, CD4-APC, CD8-PerCP-Cy5.5; detection of CD3 in each group+ Memory markers in T cells: including the proportion of CD4-APC, CD8-PerCP-Cy5.5, CD45RA-BV510, CCR7-PE, and CD95-PECY7 cells, for activated T cells (CD3+). + CD95 + CD45RA and CCR7 can be used as the minimum marker combination to distinguish memory T cells at different stages, specifically classifying them into T cells. SCM (CD45RA + CCR7 + ), T CM (CD45RA - CCR7 + ), T EM (CD45RA - CCR7 - ), T EFF (CD45RO + CCR7 - ); Detect CD3 in each group + Activating markers in T cells: including the proportion of CD3-BV510, CD137-PE, CD25-PE-CY7, and CD69-APC cells; detection of CD3 in each group. + Exhaustion markers in T cells: including the proportion of CD3-PerCP-Cy5.5, PD-1-BV421, LAG-3-AF647, and TIM-3-BV510 cells.
[0978] As shown in Figure 81, on day 12 of CAR-T cell culture, pcM2-Ori2 CAR-T cells exhibited a higher stem cell memory (TSCM) phenotype compared to other structures, suggesting that the pcM2-Ori2 CAR structure helps maintain a lower differentiation state of T cells and retain more early memory features, which may endow CAR-T cells with stronger proliferative potential and durable anti-tumor function in vivo.
[0979] Example 35. Construction of a bispecific chimeric antigen receptor lentiviral expression vector
[0980] The construction of the bispecific chimeric antigen receptor and control BMS Dual G5xBCMA (BMS-986453) lentiviral expression vector is briefly described as follows: The CAR lentiviral core empty vector plasmid was double-digested with SphI and NotI restriction endonucleases to generate a linearized fragment; Nanjing Genscript Biotech Co., Ltd. synthesized the signal peptide sequence (SP) encoding CD8α from the N-terminus to the C-terminus; the single-domain antibody 3B5VHH against GPRC5D; the single-domain antibody NanoBCMA3.2 and / or NanoBCMA11 and / or NanoBCMA29 against BCMA; the hinge region of CD8α or CD28, the transmembrane region sequence (TM) of CD8α or CD28, the co-stimulatory domain sequence of 4-1BB or CD28 and the CD3ζ signal transduction domain sequence, and the nucleic acid sequence of the CAR backbone polypeptide of low-density lipoprotein receptor-associated protein or its fragment Ori. The nucleic acid sequence was cloned into the linearized lentiviral vector and transformed into DH5α competent cells. Single colonies were picked and sequenced for identification. The correctly sequenced bispecific chimeric antigen receptor lentiviral expression vector clones were subjected to plasmid extraction for subsequent lentiviral packaging, as shown in Figure 82. The structure contains tandem and parallel chimeric co-stimulatory receptor (CCR) forms.
[0981] Example 36. Packaging and titer determination of bispecific chimeric antigen receptor lentivirus
[0982] The specific experimental methods for packaging and titer determination of the bispecific chimeric antigen receptor lentivirus are as described in Example 11. Viral titers were evaluated by flow cytometry, and the results showed that the titer range of the bispecific CAR lentivirus prepared in this application was 2-10 × 10⁻⁶. 6 TU / mL can be used for CAR-T cell function verification.
[0983] Example 37. Lentiviral infection and preparation of bispecific CAR-T cells
[0984] As an example, the preparation method of CAR-T cells containing GPRC5D, BCMA bispecific nanobody sequences is as follows: CD3 in PBMCs is sorted using a CD3 MicroBeads kit. + T cells, in short, were revived via PBMC (Ficoll density gradient centrifugation), centrifuged at 500g for 5 minutes to remove cryopreservation medium; then 1 x 10 7 Resuspend the cells in 80 μL of pre-cooled sorting buffer; adjust the ratio to 1 x 10⁻⁶ cells / mL. 7 Add 20 μL of CD3 MicroBeads to the total cell count, mix thoroughly, and incubate at 4°C for 15 min; after incubation, add 1×10⁻⁶ cells. 7 Add 1.5 mL of pre-cooled sorting buffer to the total cell count, centrifuge at 500 g for 5 min and discard the supernatant; then add 1 × 10⁻⁶ cells. 7The total cell count was resuspended in 0.1 mL of room temperature separation buffer, mixed by pipetting, and the cell suspension was added to a rinsed LS separation column (placed in a magnetic field) to collect CD3+. + T cells were thoroughly mixed, centrifuged at 500g for 5 minutes to remove the supernatant, and the cell density was adjusted to 1.25 × 10⁶ cells / mL using X-VIVO complete medium. 6 T cells were activated by adding CD3 / CD28 DynaBeads at a cell / bead ratio of 1:3 and cultured at 37°C with 5% CO2. Flow cytometry analysis confirmed that PBMCs, after CD3-positive magnetic bead sorting, yielded CD3-positive DynaBeads with a purity >95%. + T cells.
[0985] T cells activated for 24 hours were collected in 50 mL centrifuge tubes, centrifuged at 500g for 5 min, the supernatant was removed, and the cells were resuspended in X-VIVO complete medium for counting. Cells were counted at a rate of 7 × 10⁻⁶. 5 The total number of cells was determined, and the cells were seeded into 12-well plates with a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 5. The required volume of lentivirus was added, and polybrene reagent was added to a final concentration of 10 μg / mL. The mixture was thoroughly mixed, centrifuged at 1200 rpm for 60 min, and cultured at 37°C with 5% CO2. After 24 h, the cells were collected, centrifuged at 500 g for 5 min to remove the supernatant, and resuspended in X-VIVO complete medium to adjust the cell density to 7 × 10⁶ cells / well. 5 The cells / mL were mixed and seeded into 12-well cell culture plates and cultured at 37°C with 5% CO2.
[0986] Example 38. Detection of CAR gene expression efficiency and in vitro amplification in bispecific CAR-T cells.
[0987] The specific experimental methods for CAR gene expression efficiency and in vitro amplification detection are as described in Example 13. As shown in Figure 83, the results indicate that when the lentiviral infection multiplicity MOI = 5, the CAR gene is stably expressed in bispecific CAR-T cells from T cells derived from different PBMCs, and the CAR gene in T cells... + With a transduction efficiency of over 65%, it can be used for subsequent CAR-T cell function validation.
[0988] Example 39. Evaluation of the in vitro targeted killing activity of bispecific CAR-T cells
[0989] An in vitro model of multiple myeloma (MM) cells was used to detect CAR-T cell killing of MM cells resembling those from early, intermediate, and advanced stages of the disease. Specifically, different MM cell lines were used, with high / medium / low expression levels of the dual or single antigens GPRC5D or BCMA on their surface, to reflect the antigen abundance characteristics of different MM subsets and different disease stages or previously treated myeloma cells. To screen for CAR binders resistant to soluble BCMA inhibition, free BCMA was added to the CAR-T cell-tumor cell co-incubation system in vitro. In summary, the total number of target cells expressing the Luciferase gene was 3.3 × 10⁻⁶. 4 Cells were seeded per well in a 96-well plate. The prepared CAR-T cells were pre-tested for positivity. Effector cells were mixed with target cells at ratios of 3:1, 1:1, and 1:3 (E:T = 3:1, 1:1, 1:3), with three replicates per group. The cells were co-cultured at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator for 24 hours. After co-culture, the cells were thoroughly mixed, and 100 μL of the cell suspension was transferred to an opaque 96-well plate. 100 μL of Luciferase Assay Substrate was added, mixed thoroughly, and incubated at room temperature in the dark for 5 minutes. The luciferase luminescence intensity in the remaining target cells was measured using a multi-functional microplate reader. The killing efficiency was quantitatively assessed using the luciferase in the remaining tumor cells after killing.
[0990] Formula for calculating cell kill ratio:
[0991] As shown in Figures 84-86, the results indicate that, regardless of the presence or absence of high concentrations of sBCMA, the bispecific CAR-T cells exhibited superior killing activity against multiple myeloma cells (H929 cell line: BCMA high, G5 med; MM.1S cell line: BCMA med, G5 low; MOLP.8 cell line: BCMA very low, G5 negative) compared to the competing dual-target BMS G5×BCMA scFv CAR-T (derived from WO2024031091A2, with a tandem loop structure, also known as "BMSDual G5×BCMA CAR-T"), demonstrating a better targeted killing effect. Among them, CAR-T cells containing the ori element showed the best killing activity. As shown in Figure 87, the results indicate that the bispecific CAR-T constructed in this application showed higher sensitivity to changes in BCMA antigen abundance. In the low BCMA abundance cell model (MOLP-8), the killing activity of both tandem and parallel CAR-T structures was significantly better than that of the control competing CAR-T.
[0992] Example 40. Assessment of Bispecific CAR-T Cytokine Secretion Levels
[0993] This embodiment aims to detect the cytokine secretion levels of BCMA, GPRC5D bispecific CAR-T cells co-incubated with positive target cells in the presence and absence of free BCMA protein. Exemplary bispecific CAR-T cells were cultured in vitro for Day 9, and the levels of CAR-T cytokines IL-2 and IFN-γ were detected using an IL-2 and IFN-γ cytokine ELISA kit from R&D Corporation. The positivity rate and cell density of CAR-T cells were pre-tested. Lentivirally infected CAR-T cells were adjusted with blank T cells to ensure a consistent total cell count across groups. CAR-T cells and MOLP8 target cells were co-incubated at an effector-to-target ratio of 1:1, with the total number of CAR-positive cells set at 3.3 × 10⁻⁶. 4 The total number of MOLP8 cells was 3 × 10⁻⁶. 4 Each group was set up with 3 replicates; the CAR-T cell group containing free BCMA protein was incubated with an appropriate concentration of BCMA-his protein for 1-2 hours in advance, and the rest of the operation was the same. After incubation for 24 hours, the cells were centrifuged at 250g for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was collected. The cytokine secretion was detected by the corresponding IL-2 and IFN-γ ELISA kits.
[0994] As shown in Figures 88 and 89, under stimulation by NCIH929, MM1S, and MOLP8 target cells, the IL-2 and IFN-γ cytokine secretion levels of bispecific CAR-T cells were higher than those of the Mock T cell group. The IFN-γ secretion in each CAR-T group was significantly higher than that in the Mock T cell group. Furthermore, compared to the positive control competitor's dual-target G5×BCMA scFv CAR-T group, bispecific CAR-T cells exhibited comparable or even higher IL-2 and IFN-γ secretion levels, indicating a strong antigen-specific activation effect. In addition, in the presence of free sBCMA protein, bispecific CAR-T cells maintained a relatively high cytokine secretion level compared to the positive control CAR-T cells, suggesting that bispecific CAR-T cells can alleviate the inhibitory effect of free sBCMA on CAR-T activity while maintaining antigen-specific activation and cytokine secretion.
[0995] Example 41. Assessment of the bispecific CAR-T cell targeting and proliferation capacity
[0996] In this embodiment, the targeting and proliferation capacity of bispecific CAR-T cells was detected using untreated MM.1S, NCIH929, and NCIH929-BCMA. KO NCIH929-GPRC5D KOCells were used as target cells. CD3 / CD28 DynaBeads-activated T cells were infected with lentivirus to prepare CAR-T cells and control Mock T cells. The CAR-T cell targeting and proliferation capacity was assessed according to the culture time (Day 9). In short, the CAR positivity rate of each group was pre-tested, and blank T cells were used to adjust the CAR positivity rate of each group to be consistent (the culture medium was X-VIVO without any additives). 15 (Blank culture medium). CAR-T cells and target cells were subjected to the first round of targeted stimulation at an effector-to-target ratio of 1:1, with each round lasting 24 hours, for a total of 6 rounds. In rounds 2-6, the same number of different target cells were added each round. After each round, the cells in the culture system were thoroughly mixed, and cell counts were performed using AO / PI reagents. Cell density and cell diameter were recorded. Half of the cell volume was then co-incubated with fresh target cells for a new round of targeted stimulation. After each round, the cytotoxic effect activity of multispecific CAR-T cells, the proportion of residual target cells, the CAR-T cell positivity rate, and the abundance of CAR molecule expression were measured.
[0997] As shown in Figure 90, the bispecific CAR-T cells prepared in this application exhibited superior sustained killing ability during co-incubation with different target cells, and were no weaker than the B38MBBZ positive control CAR-T cells. The CAR gene expression level of the bispecific CAR-T cells was relatively stable. In addition, the CAR-T cells had low levels of autocrine cytokines when not co-incubated with target cells, indicating that the spontaneous activation (tonic signaling) of the bispecific CAR-T cells was at baseline.
