[0003] The disclosure provided herein relates to methods of treating multiple myeloma using a trispecific antibodies or trispecific binding fragments thereof that bind B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA), G-protein coupled receptor, class C, group 5, member D (GPRC5D), and cluster determinant 3 (CD3) and pomalidomide.BACKGROUND
[0004] Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant plasma cell disorder that accounts for 10% of all hematologic cancers, making it the second most common hematological malignancy and responsible for 2% of cancer deaths. It often develops from asymptomatic precursor states like monoclonal gammopathy or smoldering MM, affecting about 3% of adults over 50. MM is a heterogeneous disease caused primarily by chromosomal translocations (e.g., t(l 1 ; 14), t(4;14), del(13)). It is more prevalent in men and twice as common in people of African descent.
[0005] The clinical manifestations arise from clonal expansion of bone marrow plasma cells, resulting in bone marrow infiltration, bone destruction, renal failure, andimmunodeficiency. As of 2006, the 5-year survival rate was 34%, and no curative treatments exist. Diagnosis is based on clonal plasma cells and end-organ damage, defined by the "CRAB" features: hypercalcemia, renal failure, anemia, and bone lesions.
[0006] BCMA (B-cell maturation antigen), a key target in MM, plays a role in plasma cell growth and survival. It binds to APRIL and BAFF ligands, activating pro-survival pathways. BCMA is highly expressed on malignant B cells, making it a prime therapeutic target, with several approved treatments including idecabtagene vicleucel and belantamab mafodotin. GPRC5D, another plasma cell target, shows promise for treating MM due to its restricted expression in plasma cells and malignant plasma cell correlation. Dual targeting of BCMA and GPRC5D improves tumor eradication and reduces the risk of tumor escape.
[0007] Although treatment options for MM, such as proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulatory drugs, and monoclonal antibodies, have improved over time, MM remains incurable, especially in elderly patients and those with refractory disease. Novel regimens, including combinations with pomalidomide, are needed to address treatment resistance and provide better outcomes for these patients.SUMMARY

[0033] The disclosed methods can be understood more readily by reference to the following detailed description. It is to be understood that the disclosed methods are not limited to the specific methods described and / or shown herein, and that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments by way of example only and is not intended to be limiting of the claimed methods. All patents, published patent applications and publications cited herein are incorporated by reference as if set fourth fully herein.
[0034] Unless otherwise defined herein, technical and scientific terms used in the present description have the meanings that are commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art. For purposes of interpreting this specification, the following description of terms will apply and whenever appropriate, terms used in the singular will also include the plural and vice versa. In the event that any description of a term set forth conflicts with any104897-1598-5221.1document incorporated herein by reference, the description of the term set forth below shall control.
[0035] In an attempt to help the reader of the present application, the description has been separated in various paragraphs or sections. These separations are not considered as disconnecting the substance of a paragraph or section from the substance of another paragraph or section. To the contrary, the present description encompasses all the combinations of the various sections, paragraphs and sentences that can be contemplated.Definitions
[0036] Various terms relating to aspects of the description are used throughout the specification and claims. Such terms are to be given their ordinary meaning in the art unless otherwise indicated. Other specifically defined terms are to be construed in a manner consistent with the definitions provided herein.
[0037] As used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” include plural referents unless the content clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to “a cell” includes a combination of two or more cells, and the like.
[0038] The term “about” as used herein when referring to a measurable value such as an amount, a temporal duration, and the like, is meant to encompass variations of up to ±10% from the specified value, as such variations are appropriate to perform the disclosed methods. Unless otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing quantities of ingredients, properties such as molecular weight, reaction conditions, and so forth used in the specification and claims are to be understood as being modified in all instances by the term “about.” Accordingly, unless indicated to the contrary, the numerical parameters set forth in the following specification and attached claims are approximations that may vary depending upon the desired properties sought to be obtained by the present disclosure. At the very least, and not as an attempt to limit the application of the doctrine of equivalents to the scope of the claims, each numerical parameter should at least be construed in light of the number of reported significant digits and by applying ordinary rounding techniques.114897-1598-5221.1
[0039] Notwithstanding that the numerical ranges and parameters setting forth the broad scope of the disclosure are approximations, the numerical values set forth in the specific examples are reported as precisely as possible. Any numerical value, however, inherently contains certain errors necessarily resulting from the standard deviation found in their respective testing measurements.
[0040] The term “comprising” is intended to include examples encompassed by the terms “consisting essentially of’ and “consisting of’; similarly, the term “consisting essentially of’ is intended to include examples encompassed by the term “consisting of.” Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, throughout the description and the claims, the words “comprise”, “comprising”, and the like are to be construed in an inclusive sense as opposed to an exclusive or exhaustive sense; that is to say, in the sense of “including, but not limited to”.
[0041] “Isolated” means a biological component (such as a nucleic acid, peptide or protein) has been substantially separated, produced apart from, or purified away from other biological components of the organism in which the component naturally occurs, i.e., other chromosomal and extrachromosomal DNA and RNA, and proteins. Nucleic acids, peptides and proteins that have been “isolated” thus include nucleic acids and proteins purified by standard purification methods. “Isolated” nucleic acids, peptides and proteins can be part of a composition and still be isolated if such composition is not part of the native environment of the nucleic acid, peptide, or protein. The term also embraces nucleic acids, peptides and proteins prepared by recombinant expression in a host cell as well as chemically synthesized nucleic acids. An "isolated” antibody or antigen-binding fragment, as used herein, is intended to refer to an antibody or antigen-binding fragment which is substantially free of other antibodies or antigen-binding fragments having different antigenic specificities (for instance, an isolated antibody that specifically binds to BCMA is substantially free of antibodies that specifically bind antigens other than BCMA). An isolated antibody that specifically binds to an epitope, isoform or variant of BCMA or GPRC5D may, however, have cross-reactivity to other related antigens, for instance from other species (such as BCMA or GPRC5D species homologs).124897-1598-5221.1
[0042] “Polynucleotide,” synonymously referred to as “nucleic acid molecule,” “nucleotides” or “nucleic acids,” refers to any polyribonucleotide or polydeoxyribonucleotide, which may be unmodified RNA or DNA or modified RNA or DNA. “Polynucleotides” include, without limitation single- and double-stranded DNA, DNA that is a mixture of single- and double-stranded regions, single- and double-stranded RNA, and RNA that is mixture of single- and double-stranded regions, hybrid molecules comprising DNA and RNA that may be single-stranded or, more typically, double-stranded or a mixture of single- and double-stranded regions. In addition, “polynucleotide” refers to triple-stranded regions comprising RNA or DNA or both RNA and DNA. The term polynucleotide also includes DNAs or RNAs containing one or more modified bases and DNAs or RNAs with backbones modified for stability or for other reasons. “Modified” bases include, for example, tritylated bases and unusual bases such as inosine. A variety of modifications may be made to DNA and RNA; thus, “polynucleotide” embraces chemically, enzymatically or metabolically modified forms of polynucleotides as typically found in nature, as well as the chemical forms of DNA and RNA characteristic of viruses and cells. “Polynucleotide” also embraces relatively short nucleic acid chains, often referred to as oligonucleotides.
[0043] The meaning of “substantially the same” can differ depending on the context in which the term is used. Because of the natural sequence variation likely to exist among heavy and light chains and the genes encoding them, one would expect to find some level of variation within the amino acid sequences or the genes encoding the antibodies or antigen-binding fragments described herein, with little or no impact on their unique binding properties (e.g., specificity and affinity). Such an expectation is due in part to the degeneracy of the genetic code, as well as to the evolutionary success of conservative amino acid sequence variations, which do not appreciably alter the nature of the encoded protein. Accordingly, in the context of nucleic acid sequences, “substantially the same” means at least 65% identity between two or more sequences. Preferably, the term refers to at least 70% identity between two or more sequences, more preferably at least 75% identity, more preferably at least 80% identity, more preferably at least 85% identity, more134897-1598-5221.1preferably at least 90% identity, more preferably at least 91% identity, more preferably at least 92% identity, more preferably at least 93% identity, more preferably at least 94% identity, more preferably at least 95% identity, more preferably at least 96% identity, more preferably at least 97% identity, more preferably at least 98% identity, and more preferably at least 99% or greater identity. The percent identity between two sequences is a function of the number of identical positions shared by the sequences (i.e., % homology = # of identical positions / total # of positions x 100), taking into account the number of gaps, and the length of each gap, which need to be introduced for optimal alignment of the two sequences. The percent identity between two nucleotide or amino acid sequences may e.g. be determined using the algorithm of E. Meyers and W. Miller, Comput. Appl. Biosci 4, 11-17 (1988) which has been incorporated into the ALIGN program (version 2.0), using a P AMI 20 weight residue table, a gap length penalty of 12 and a gap penalty of 4. In addition, the percent identity between two amino acid sequences may be determined using the Needleman and Wunsch, J. Mol. Biol. 48, 444-453 (1970) algorithm.
[0044] The degree of variation that may occur within the amino acid sequence of a protein without having a substantial effect on protein function is much lower than that of a nucleic acid sequence, since the same degeneracy principles do not apply to amino acid sequences. Accordingly, in the context of an antibody or antigen-binding fragment, “substantially the same” means antibodies or antigen-binding fragments having 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identity to the antibodies or antigen-binding fragments described. Other embodiments include antibodies, or antigen-binding fragments, that have framework, scaffold, or other non-binding regions that do not share significant identity with the antibodies and antigen-binding fragments described herein, but do incorporate one or more CDRs or other sequences needed to confer binding that are 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identical to such sequences described herein.
[0045] A “clone” is a population of cells derived from a single cell or common ancestor by mitosis. A “cell line” is a clone of a primary cell that is capable of stable growth in vitro for many generations. In some examples provided herein, cells are transformed by transfecting the cells with DNA.144897-1598-5221.1
[0046] The terms “express” and “produce” are used synonymously herein, and refer to the biosynthesis of a gene product. These terms encompass the transcription of a gene into RNA. These terms also encompass translation of RNA into one or more polypeptides, and further encompass all naturally occurring post-transcriptional and post-translational modifications. The expression or production of an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof may be within the cytoplasm of the cell, or into the extracellular milieu such as the growth medium of a cell culture.
[0047] The terms “treating” or “treatment” refer to any success or indicia of success in the attenuation or amelioration of an injury, pathology or condition, including any objective or subjective parameter such as abatement, remission, diminishing of symptoms or making the condition more tolerable to the patient, slowing in the rate of degeneration or decline, making the final point of degeneration less debilitating, improving a subject’s physical or mental well-being, or prolonging the length of survival. The treatment may be assessed by objective or subjective parameters; including the results of a physical examination, neurological examination, or psychiatric evaluations.
[0048] An "effective amount" or "therapeutically effective amount" refers to an amount effective, at dosages and for periods of time necessary, to achieve a desired therapeutic result. A therapeutically effective amount of a BCMA x GPRC5D x CD3 antibody may vary according to factors such as the disease state, age, sex, and weight of the individual, and the ability of the antibody to elicit a desired response in the individual. . A therapeutically effective amount of pomalidomide may vary according to factors such as the disease state, age, sex, and weight of the individual, and the ability of the antibody to elicit a desired response in the individual. A therapeutically effective amount is also one in which any toxic or detrimental effects of the antibody or antibody portion, or the pomalidomide, are outweighed by the therapeutically beneficial effects.
[0049] “Antibody” refers to all isotypes of immunoglobulins (IgG, IgA, IgE, IgM, IgD, and IgY) including various monomeric, polymeric and chimeric forms, unless otherwise specified. Specifically encompassed by the term “antibody” are polyclonal antibodies,154897-1598-5221.1monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), and antibody-like polypeptides, such as chimeric antibodies and humanized antibodies.
[0050] The term “antigen-binding arm” refers to a portion of an antibody that includes an antigen-binding domain that binds to an antigen (e.g., BCMA, GPRC5D, or CD3), and optionally includes one or more other antibody regions (e.g., Fc domain).
[0051] The term “antigen-binding fragment” refers to a fragment of the antigen-binding arm containing an antigen-binding domain. Antigen-binding fragments include those provided by any known technique, such as enzymatic cleavage, peptide synthesis, and recombinant techniques. Some antigen-binding fragments are composed of portions of intact antibodies that retain antigen-binding specificity of the parent antibody molecule. For example, antigen-binding fragments may comprise at least one variable region (either a heavy chain or light chain variable region) or one or more CDRs of an antibody known to bind a particular antigen. Examples of suitable antigen-binding fragments include, without limitation diabodies and single-chain molecules as well as Fab, F(ab’)2, Fc, Fabc, and Fv molecules, single chain (Sc) antibodies, individual antibody light chains, individual antibody heavy chains, chimeric fusions between antibody chains or CDRs and other proteins, protein scaffolds, heavy chain monomers or dimers, light chain monomers or dimers, dimers consisting of one heavy and one light chain, a monovalent fragment consisting of the VL, VH, CL and CHI domains, or a monovalent antibody as described in W02007059782, bivalent fragments comprising two Fab fragments linked by a disulfide bridge at the hinge region, a Fd fragment consisting essentially of the VH and CHI domains; a Fv fragment consisting essentially of the VL and VH domains of a single arm of an antibody, a dAb fragment (Ward et al., Nature 341, 544-546 (1989)), which consists essentially of a VH domain and also called domain antibodies (Holt et al; Trends Biotechnol. 2003 Nov.; 21(11):484-90); camelid or nanobodies (Revets et al; Expert Opin Biol Ther. 2005 Jan.; 5(1): 111-24); an isolated complementarity determining region (CDR), and the like; and trispecific antibodies formed from antibody fragments. All antibody isotypes may be used to produce antigen-binding fragments. Additionally, antigen-binding fragments may include non-antibody proteinaceous frameworks that may164897-1598-5221.1successfully incorporate polypeptide segments in an orientation that confers affinity for a given antigen of interest, such as protein scaffolds. Antigen-binding fragments may be recombinantly produced or produced by enzymatic or chemical cleavage of intact antibodies. The phrase “an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof’ may be used to denote that a given antigen-binding fragment incorporates one or more amino acid segments of the antibody referred to in the phrase.
[0052] The term “antigen-binding domain” refers to the proteinaceous structure of an antigen-binding arm that exhibits binding affinity for a particular antigen. This proteinaceous structure is mediated by the complementarity determining regions (CDRs) of the antigen-binding domain.
[0053] The terms “CDR”, and its plural “CDRs”, refer to a complementarity determining region (CDR) of which three make up the binding character of a light chain variable region (CDRL1, CDRL2 and CDRL3) and three make up the binding character of a heavy chain variable region (CDRH1, CDRH2 and CDRH3). CDRs contribute to the functional activity of an antibody molecule and are separated by amino acid sequences that comprise scaffolding or framework regions. The exact definitional CDR boundaries and lengths are subject to different classification and numbering systems. CDRs may therefore be referred to herein by Kabat, Chothia, AbM, contact or any other boundary definitions. Despite differing boundaries, each of these systems has some degree of overlap in what constitutes the so called “hypervariable regions” within the variable sequences. CDR definitions according to these systems may therefore differ in length and boundary areas with respect to the adjacent framework region. See for example Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th ed. NIH Publication No. 91-3242 (1991); Chothia et al., “Canonical Structures For the Hypervariable Regions of Immunoglobulins,” J. Mol. Biol. 196:901 (1987); and MacCallum et al., “Antibody- Antigen Interactions: Contact Analysis and Binding Site Topography,” J. Mol. Biol. 262:732 (1996)), each of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
[0054] Typically, CDRs form a loop structure that can be classified as a canonical structure. The term “canonical structure” refers to the main chain conformation that is174897-1598-5221.1adopted by the antigen binding (CDR) loops. From comparative structural studies, it has been found that five of the six antigen binding loops have only a limited repertoire of available conformations. Each canonical structure can be characterized by the torsion angles of the polypeptide backbone. Correspondent loops between antibodies may, therefore, have very similar three dimensional structures, despite high amino acid sequence variability in most parts of the loops (Chothia et al., “Canonical Structures For the Hypervariable Regions of Immunoglobulins,” J. Mol. Biol. 196:901 (1987); Chothia et al., “Conformations of Immunoglobulin Hypervariable Regions,” I 342:877 (1989); Martin and Thornton, “Structural Families in Loops of Homologous Proteins: Automatic Classification, Modelling and Application to Antibodies,” J. Mol. Biol. 263:800 (1996), each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety). Furthermore, there is a relationship between the adopted loop structure and the amino acid sequences surrounding it. The conformation of a particular canonical class is determined by the length of the loop and the amino acid residues residing at key positions within the loop, as well as within the conserved framework (i.e., outside of the loop). Assignment to a particular canonical class can therefore be made based on the presence of these key amino acid residues.
[0055] The term "polypeptide" is used interchangeably with the term "protein" and in its broadest sense refers to a compound of two or more subunit amino acids, amino acid analogs or peptidomimetics. The subunits may be linked by peptide bonds. In another embodiment, the subunit may be linked by other bonds, e.g., ester, ether, etc. As used herein the term "amino acid" refers to either natural and / or unnatural or synthetic amino acids, including glycine and both the D and L optical isomers, amino acid analogs and peptidomimetics. A peptide of three or more amino acids is commonly called an oligopeptide if the peptide chain is short. If the peptide chain is long, the peptide is commonly called a polypeptide or a protein
[0056] As used herein the term “Fc” refers to the fragment crystallizable domain of an antibody, which comprises two constant heavy chain (CH) regions, CH2 and CH3. Herein, the amino acid residues of the Fc region are typically numbered according to the EU numbering scheme (Edelman, G.M. et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. USA, 63, 78-85 (1969).184897-1598-5221.1PMID: 5257969). These residues can be readily assigned according to alternative numbering schemes such as IMGT and Kabat (Kabat, E.A. et al., Sequences of proteins of immunological interest. 5th Edition - US Department of Health and Human Services, NIH publication n° 91-3242, pp 662,680,689 (1991)) numbering as would be readily appreciated by one skilled in the art. For example, L234 according to EU numbering may also be represented as L247 according to Kabat.
[0057] “Specifically binds” or “binds specifically” or derivatives thereof when used in the context of antibodies, or antibody fragments, represents binding via domains encoded by immunoglobulin genes or fragments of immunoglobulin genes to one or more epitopes of a protein of interest, without preferentially binding other molecules in a sample containing a mixed population of molecules. Typically, an antibody binds to a cognate antigen with a Ka of less than about 1x1 O'8M, as measured by a surface plasmon resonance assay or a cell-binding assay. Phrases such as “[antigen] -specific” antibody (e.g., BCMA-specific antibody) are meant to convey that the recited antibody specifically binds the recited antigen. Wherever the term “binds” is used herein it is intended that this encompasses “specifically binds” and the terms may be interchanged as desired.
[0058] As used herein, the term “chimeric” refers to an antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, having at least some portion of at least one variable domain derived from the antibody amino acid sequence of a non-human mammal, a rodent, or a reptile, while the remaining portions of the antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, are derived from a human.
[0059] A “vector” is a replicon, such as plasmid, phage, cosmid, or virus in which another nucleic acid segment may be operably inserted so as to bring about the replication or expression of the segment.
[0060] As used herein, the term "host cell" can be any type of cell, e.g., a primary cell, a cell in culture, or a cell from a cell line. In specific embodiments, the term "host cell" refers to a cell transfected with a nucleic acid molecule and the progeny or potential progeny of such a cell. Progeny of such a cell may not be identical to the parent cell transfected with the nucleic acid molecule, e.g., due to mutations or environmental194897-1598-5221.1influences that may occur in succeeding generations or integration of the nucleic acid molecule into the host cell genome. The terms “expression” and “production” are used synonymously herein, and refer to the biosynthesis of a gene product. These terms encompass the transcription of a gene into RNA. These terms also encompass translation of RNA into one or more polypeptides, and further encompass all naturally occurring post- transcriptional and post-translational modifications.
[0061] The term “subject” refers to human and non-human animals, including all vertebrates, e.g., mammals and non-mammals, such as non-human primates, mice, rabbits, sheep, dogs, cats, horses, cows, chickens, amphibians, and reptiles. In a certain embodiment of the described methods, the subject is a human.
[0062] The term “redirect” or “redirecting” as used herein refers to the ability of the BCMA x GPRC5D x CD3 antibody to traffic the activity of T cells effectively, from its inherent cognate specificity toward reactivity against GPRC5D and / or BCMA-expressing cells.
[0063] The term “sample” as used herein refers to a collection of similar fluids, cells, or tissues (e.g., surgically resected tumor tissue, biopsies, including fine needle aspiration), isolated from a subject, as well as fluids, cells, or tissues present within a subject. In some embodiments the sample is a biological fluid. Biological fluids are typically liquids at physiological temperatures and may include naturally occurring fluids present in, withdrawn from, expressed or otherwise extracted from a subject or biological source. Certain biological fluids derive from particular tissues, organs or localized regions and certain other biological fluids may be more globally or systemically situated in a subject or biological source. Examples of biological fluids include blood, serum and serosal fluids, plasma, lymph, urine, saliva, cystic fluid, tear drops, feces, sputum, mucosal secretions of the secretory tissues and organs, vaginal secretions, ascites fluids such as those associated with non-solid tumors, fluids of the pleural, pericardial, peritoneal, abdominal and other body cavities, fluids collected by bronchial lavage and the like. Biological fluids may also include liquid solutions contacted with a subject or biological source, for example, cell and organ culture medium including cell or organ conditioned medium, lavage fluids and the 204897-1598-5221.1like. The term “sample,” as used herein, encompasses materials removed from a subject or materials present in a subject. The relevant aspects of the disclosure may be performed in vitro based on isolated samples as required.
[0064] A “known standard” may be a solution having a known amount or concentration of GPRC5D and / or BCMA, where the solution may be a naturally occurring solution, such as a sample from a patient known to have early, moderate, late, progressive, or static cancer, or the solution may be a synthetic solution such as buffered water having a known amount of GPRC5D and / or BCMA diluted therein. The known standards, described herein may include GPRC5D and / or BCMA isolated from a subject, recombinant or purified GPRC5D and / or BCMA protein, or a value of GPRC5D and / or BCMA concentration associated with a disease condition.
[0065] The terms “B-cell maturation antigen” and "BCMA" as used herein include human B cell maturation antigen, also known as BCMA, CD269, and TNFRSF17 (UniProt Q02223), which is a member of the tumor necrosis receptor superfamily that is preferentially expressed in differentiated plasma cells. The extracellular domain of human BCMA consists, according to UniProt of amino acids 1 - 54 (or 5-51). The term "antibody against BCMA, anti-BCMA antibody" as used herein relates to an antibody specifically binding to BCMA.
[0066] The terms "G-protein coupled receptor family C group 5 member D" and "GPRC5D" specifically include the human GPRC5D protein, for example as described in GenBank Accession No. BC069341, NCBI Reference Sequence: NP_061124.1 and UniProtKB / Swiss-Prot Accession No. Q9NZD1 (see also Brauner-Osborne, H. et al. 2001, Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1518, 237-248).
[0067] The terms “cluster determinant 3” and “CD3” include the human CD3 protein multi-subunit complex. The CD3 protein multi-subunit complex is composed to 6 distinctive polypeptide chains. These include a CD3y chain (SwissProt P09693), a CD38 chain (SwissProt P04234), two CD3s chains (SwissProt P07766), and one CD3 chain homodimer (SwissProt 20963), and which is associated with the T cell receptor a and 0 chain. The term “CD3” includes any CD3 variant, isoform and species homolog which is 214897-1598-5221.1naturally expressed by cells (including T cells) or can be expressed on cells transfected with genes or cDNA encoding those polypeptides, unless noted.
[0068] A “BCMA x GPRC5D x CD3 antibody” is a trispecific antibody, which comprises three different antigen-binding arms, one of which binds to the antigen BCMA, one of which binds to the antigen GPRC5D, and one of which binds to CD3. The term "multispecific antibody" is used herein in the broadest sense and specifically covers an antibody that has polyepitopic specificity. Multispecific antibodies include, but are not limited to, an antibody comprising a heavy chain variable domain (VH) and a light chain variable domain (VL), where the VHVL unit has polyepitopic specificity, antibodies having two or more VL and VH domains where each VHVL unit binds to a different epitope, antibodies having two or more single variable domains with each single variable domain binding to a different epitope, full length antibodies, and antibodies comprising one or more antibody fragments as well as antibodies comprising antibody fragments that have been linked covalently or non-covalently.
[0069] A multispecific antibody can be a bispecific antibody, a trispecific antibody, diabody, or similar molecule (see for instance PNAS USA 90(14), 6444-8 (1993) for a description of diabodies). The bispecific antibodies, trispecific antibodies, diabodies, and the like, provided herein may bind any suitable target in addition to a portion of BCMA or GPRC5D. The term "bispecific antibody" is to be understood as an antibody having two different antigen-binding arms defined by different antibody sequences. The term “trispecific antibody” is to be understood as an antibody having three different antigenbinding arms defined by different antibody sequences. This can be understood as different target binding but includes as well binding to different epitopes in one target.
[0070] The term “humanized antibody” refers to an antibody in which at least one CDR is derived from non-human species and at least one framework is derived from human immunoglobulin sequences. Humanized antibody can include substitutions in the frameworks so that the frameworks can not be exact copies of expressed human immunoglobulin or human immunoglobulin germline gene sequences.224897-1598-5221.1
[0071] A “reference sample” is a sample that may be compared against another sample, such as a test sample, to allow for characterization of the compared sample. The reference sample will have some characterized property that serves as the basis for comparison with the test sample. For instance, a reference sample may be used as a benchmark for GPRC5D or BCMA levels that are indicative of a subject having cancer. The reference sample does not necessarily have to be analyzed in parallel with the test sample, thus in some instances the reference sample may be a numerical value or range previously determined to characterize a given condition, such as GPRC5D or BCMA levels that are indicative of cancer in a subject. The term also includes samples used for comparative purposes that are known to be associated with a physiologic state or disease condition, such as GPRC5D- or BCMA-expressing cancer, but that have an unknown amount of GPRC5D or BCMA.
[0072] “Cancer” refers to a broad group of various diseases characterized by the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the body. Unregulated cell division and growth results in the formation of malignant tumors that invade neighboring tissues and can also metastasize to distant parts of the body through the lymphatic system or bloodstream. A “cancer” or “cancer tissue” can include a tumor.
[0073] “Combination” means that two or more therapeutics are administered to a subject concurrently as single agents or sequentially as single agents in any order.
[0074] “Flat dose” refers to a dose that is administered to a subject without correction for the subject’s specific body weight or body surface area. A flat dose, sometimes referred to as a fixed dose, is therefore provided as an absolute amount of the agent (e.g., mg drug), and not as a weight- based amount that accounts for the subject’s specific weight (e.g. pg / kg or pg drug per kg body weight). For example, a subject weighing 65kg may be administered the same flat dose in milligrams as a subject weighing 85kg. A flat dose may be administered according to a pre-defined class or category of body weight, but is not modified according to the subject’s specific weight. For example, a “Flat Dose A” may be administered if a patient is greater than a pre-defined threshold weight, whereas a different234897-1598-5221.1“Flat Dose B” may be administered if the patent is less than the pre-defined threshold weight.
[0075] “Pharmaceutical composition” refers to composition that comprises an active ingredient and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
[0076] “Pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” or “excipient” refers to an ingredient in a pharmaceutical composition, other than the active ingredient, which is nontoxic to a subject.
[0077] “Relapsed” refers to the return of a disease or the signs and symptoms of a disease after a period of improvement after prior treatment with a therapeutic.
[0078] “Refractory” refers to a disease that does not respond to a treatment. A refractory disease can be resistant to a treatment before or at the beginning of the treatment, or a refractory disease can become resistant during a treatment.
[0079] “Newly diagnosed” or “newly diagnosed multiple myeloma” refers to a clinical status in which a patient has been diagnosed with multiple myeloma for the first time and has not yet received any systemic therapy for the disease, or has received only limited initial treatment (such as corticosteroids or a single cycle of chemotherapy) not intended as full induction therapy. This term encompasses patients at the time of diagnosis prior to initiation of a standard treatment regimen and may include those who are transplant- eligible or transplant-ineligible.
[0080] The term “progression,” as used in the context of progression of GPRC5D and / or BCMA -expressing cancer, includes the change of a cancer from a less severe to a more severe state. This may include an increase in the number or severity of tumors, the degree of metastasis, the speed with which the cancer is growing or spreading, and the like. For example, “the progression of colon cancer” includes the progression of such a cancer from a less severe to a more severe state, such as the progression from stage I to stage II, from stage II to stage III, etc.
[0081] The term “regression,” as used in the context of regression of GPRC5D and / or BCMA -expressing cancer, includes the change of a cancer from a more severe to a less severe state. This could include a decrease in the number or severity of tumors, the degree 244897-1598-5221.1of metastasis, the speed with which the cancer is growing or spreading, and the like. For example, “the regression of colon cancer” includes the regression of such a cancer from a more severe to a less severe state, such as the progression from stage III to stage II, from stage II to stage I, etc.
[0082] The term “stable” as used in the context of stable GPRC5D and / or BCMA- expressing cancer, is intended to describe a disease condition that is not, or has not, changed significantly enough over a clinically relevant period of time to be considered a progressing cancer or a regressing cancer.
[0083] The term “step-up dose” refers to a dose of an active agent that is administered to a subject prior to a treatment dose. A step-up dose is lower than the treatment dose. To prevent or lessen certain toxicities, such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS), a “priming” dose strategy may include one or more lower step-up dose(s) followed by higher treatment doses.
[0084] The term “treatment dose” refers to a dose of the active agent that is administered to a subject to treat a disease. A treatment dose may be administered at a regular dosing interval on a repetitive basis (e.g. weekly, biweekly, monthly). A treatment dose may be preceded by one or more step-up doses.
[0085] As used herein, the term “outpatient” is a patient who attends a hospital or clinic for treatment without staying at the hospital or clinic overnight, and the patient is administered the BCMA x GPRC5D x CD3 trispecific antibody or trispecific binding fragment thereof described herein by a health care professional.
[0086] The term "high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities" described herein refers to genetic alterations in multiple myeloma cells that are associated with poor prognosis, increased disease aggressiveness, or resistance to standard therapies, including but not limited to deletions, translocations, or amplifications such as del(17p), t(4; 14), t(14; 16), or lq21 gain / lq21 amplification, as identified through methods such as fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), next-generation sequencing (NGS), or equivalent cytogenetic analysis techniques.254897-1598-5221.1

[0143] Dexamethasone is a synthetic adrenocortical steroid with potent glucocorticoid activity and minimal mineralocorticoid activity. It exerts broad anti-inflammatory and374897-1598-5221.1immunosuppressive effects by binding to cytosolic glucocorticoid receptors and modulating the transcription of corticosteroid-responsive genes involved in immune cell proliferation, cytokine production, and inflammatory mediator release.
[0144] Clinically, dexamethasone is used to treat a wide range of inflammatory, allergic, and autoimmune disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, asthma, and bronchospasm. It also exerts cytotoxic and apoptotic effects on certain hematologic malignancies, thereby serving as a chemotherapeutic agent in various oncologic regimens.
[0145] In the context of hematologic cancers such as multiple myeloma, dexamethasone is routinely administered as a component of multi-drug regimens to potentiate the anti-tumor effects of immunomodulatory agents (e.g., lenalidomide or pomalidomide), proteasome inhibitors (e.g., bortezomib or carfilzomib), and monoclonal or multispecific antibodies (e.g., BCMA- or GPRC5D-targeted antibodies). The glucocorticoid reduces tumor- associated inflammation, mitigates cytokine-mediated adverse events, and induces apoptosis in plasma cells, thereby contributing directly to anti-myeloma activity and improving tolerability of combination therapies.
[0146] Accordingly, dexamethasone may be administered alone or in combination with one or more chemotherapeutic, immunomodulatory, or antibody-based agents described herein, including but not limited to trispecific antibodies targeting BCMA x GPRC5D x CD3. When used in combination therapy, dexamethasone may be administered prior to, concurrently with, or subsequent to administration of the antibody or antibody fragment, at dosages effective to enhance therapeutic efficacy and reduce immune-related toxicity.Treatment of multiple myeloma

[0296] The following examples are provided to supplement the prior disclosure and to provide a better understanding of the subject matter described herein. These examples should not be considered to limit the described subject matter. It is understood that the examples and embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and that various modifications or changes in light thereof will be apparent to persons skilled in the art and are to be included within, and can be made without departing from, the true scope of the invention.EXAMPLE 1 : MOLECULE DESIGN, SEQUENCE, AND STRUCTURE OF BGCB491 TRISPECIFIC ANTIBODY
[0297] BGCB491 is an immunoglobulin (Ig) G1 trispecific antibody that can bind simultaneously or independently to the epsilon subunit of the cluster of differentiation 3 receptor complex (CD3e) (Uniprot ID: P07766) on T lymphocytes (T cells), and to1294897-1598-5221.1GPRC5D (G- protein coupled receptor family C group 5 member D, Uniprot ID: Q9NZD1) and BCMA (B cell maturation antigen, TNFRSF17, Uniprot ID: Q02223) on tumor cells. The antibody features mutations of L234A, L235A, and D265S in the constant region (Fc) to abolish interaction with Fc receptors and heterodimerization is enhanced using the knobs-into-holes platform mutations The anti-CD3e “hole” chain also featured “RF” mutations (H435R, Y436F) to disrupt protein A binding of monomeric and homodimerized hole chains. The molecule comprises an anti-CD3e Fab region on the “hole, RF” chain and an anti-GPRC5D scFv v-region fused onto the C-terminus. The “knob” chain features the anti-BCMA scFv. The trispecific antibody was developed to evaluate the therapeutic potential of dual tumor targeting GPRC5D and BCMA and CD3 for T cell redirection. An illustration of BGCB491 is depicted in FIG. 10.
[0298] The trispecific BGCB491 antibody was generated by co-expression of the anti-CD3 heavy chain (HC) A fused to the C-terminal anti-GPRC5D scFv and anti-CD3 light chain (LC) with the anti-BCMA scFv fused to “knob” containing heavy chain B. The anti-CD3 variable region (VR000017350) was discovered by immunizing transgenic humanized rats [OmniRat (OMT™)] with recombinant CD3s protein. The anti-GPRC5d variable region (VR000038761) featured in BGCB491 is derived from the mAb GC5B680, discovered by immunizing transgenic humanized mice [Ablexis] with DNA encoding GPRC5d. The parent v-region (VR000029832) contained an “NSS” motif in the HC framework 3 region which presented a risk for N-linked glycosylation and which represented a mutation from the IGHV2-26*01 germline. The site was mutated back to the germline sequence “STS” to eliminate the risk for N-linked glycosylation, and this change resulted in the final variable region VR000038761. The anti-BCMA variable region (VR000003260) featured in BGCB491 is derived from the mAb BCMB519, discovered by immunizing transgenic humanized mice [Ablexis] with recombinant BCMA protein. No further modifications were made to this v-region. Both the anti-GPRC5D and anti-BCMA v-regions were formatted as single-chain fragment variable (scFv) in the final molecule.
[0299] The amino acid sequence for the BGCB491 heavy chains and light chain, as deduced from the cDNA sequence (SEQ ID Nos: 165, 166, and 167) of BGCB491 and 1304897-1598-5221.1confirmed by peptide mapping and mass spectrometry is shown below (Table 1). The complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) are defined according to ABM numbering. The Gin residue at position 1 of BGCB491 heavy chain 1, Gin residue at position 1 of BGCB491 light chain, and Glu residue at position 1 of BGCB491 heavy chain 2 constitute the N-termini of the mature chains. Both heavy chains comprising BGCB491 IgGl AAS have the following point mutations: L234A, L235A, and D265S. Heavy chain 1 from BGCB491 features the “hole” mutations: T366S, L368A, Y407V and the RF mutations: H435R, Y436F, while heavy chain 2 features the “knob” mutation: T366W. The knobs- into-holes mutations promote heterodimerization of the Fc3. The “RF” mutations disrupt binding to protein A. The mutations for FcyR receptor silencing (AAS) and the knobs- into-holes mutations are underlined in the sequences below.Table 1. Amino Acid Sequence of BGCB4911314897-1598-5221.1EXAMPLE 2: IN VITRO COMBINATION STUDIES FOR BGCB491 WITH POMALIDOMIDE FOR MULTIPLE MYELOMA
[0300] As described in Example 1, BGCB491 (GPRC5DxBCMAxCD3) is a fully human immunoglobulin (Ig)Gl - L234A, L235A, and D265S (AAS) trispecific antibody that binds to BCMA (LH scFv), GPRC5D (LH scFv), and the epsilon subunit of the CD3 (Fab) T cell receptor complex. The BCMA arm of BGCB491 has a high affinity towards the antigen with a dissociation constant (Kd) value of 0.21nM and the CD3 -engaging arm has a low affinity with a Kd value of 25nM. The GPRC5D arm of BGCB491 has an undetermined binding affinity due to lack of soluble antigen. BGCB491 draws BCMA-1324897-1598-5221.1and GPRC5D- expressing malignant multiple myeloma (MM) cells in close proximity to T cells expressing CD3, leading to T-cell activation and the release of cytotoxic factors such as perforin and granzymes, resulting in subsequent lysis of tumor cells.
[0301] Pomalidomide is an immunomodulatory drug (IMiD) that augments natural killer and T-cell mediated immunity and broadly impacts various molecular and cellular elements within the tumor microenvironment, affecting the concentration of several cytokines that support tumor cell growth (Trudel, Suzanne et al. Belantamab mafodotin, pomalidomide and dexamethasone in refractory multiple myeloma: a phase 1 / 2 trial. Nature medicine vol. 30,2 (2024): 543-551.; Chanan-Khan, A A et al. Pomalidomide: the new immunomodulatory agent for the treatment of multiple myeloma. Blood cancer journal vol. 3,9 el43. 6 Sep. 2013.). Pomalidomide interacts with the E3 ligase cereblon inducing degradation of Ikaros transcription factors as well as modulating various immune compartments through multiple mechanisms [Zhu, Yuan Xiao et al. Molecular mechanism of action of immune-modulatory drugs thalidomide, lenalidomide and pomalidomide in multiple myeloma. Leukemia & lymphoma vol. 54,4 (2013).; Gandhi AK, Kang J, Havens CG, Conklin T, Ning Y, Wu L, Ito T, Ando H, Waldman MF, Thakurta A, Klippel A, Handa H, Daniel TO, Schafer PH, Chopra R. Immunomodulatory agents lenalidomide and pomalidomide co-stimulate T cells by inducing degradation of T cell repressors Ikaros and Aiolos via modulation of the E3 ubiquitin ligase complex CRL4(CRBN.). Br J Haematol. 2014 Mar;164(6):811-21.). It enhances CD4+ and CD8+ T cell co-stimulation, suppresses Tregs, augments NK and NKT cell activation leading to enhanced Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), and induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis directly in MM cells (Zhu, Yuan Xiao et al.

Pomalidomide as monotherapy and in combination with other standard of care regimens has been approved for the treatment of patients with MM (U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research.

[0304] T-cell killing assays were performed to determine the cytotoxic effect of the combination of pomalidomide with BGCB491. Briefly, on day 0, Pan T cells were thawed in complete media (RPMI GlutaMAX + 10% v / v HI FBS). Frozen vials were wiped with 70% isopropanol and thawed in a 37°C water bath by gently swirling the vial. After a small amount of ice remained, vials were wiped again with 70% isopropanol and transferred into biosafety cabinet. 10 mL of complete media were transferred to a 15 mL tube and the components of the vials were transferred to the 15mL tube. Cells were centrifuged at 400 x g for 5 minutes at room temperature. After centrifugation, the supernatant was discarded, and the cell pellet was resuspended with 10 mL of complete media and an aliquot was used1354897-1598-5221.1to count cells and assess viability by trypan blue exclusion using the Vi-CELL XR Cell Viability Analyzer (Beckman Coulter). 30 million Pan T cells were transferred to a new 15mL tube and centrifuged at 400 x g for 5 minutes at room temperature. The cells were washed once in lOmL sterile PBS before being stained with a CellTrace Dye. Briefly, a 5 mM stock of the CellTrace CFSE dye was prepared by adding 18pL of sterile DMSO to the vial containing 50pg CFSE and allowing to sit at room temperature in the dark for 30 minutes and then diluted to 1 : 10,000 in PBS. One ml of the diluted CFSE per 10 million effector cells was added to the cells and incubated for 8 minutes at room temperature in the dark. At the end of incubation, staining was quenched by adding 5X RPMI GlutaMAX + 20% v / v HI FBS media. The CellTrace dye - loaded cells were washed three times with RPMI GlutaMAX + 20% v / v HI FBS media then resuspended in lOmL complete media and recounted using the Vi-CELL XR Cell Viability Analyzer (Beckman Coulter). Pan T cells were plated first at a concentration of 20,000 cells per 80pL of complete media in each well of 96well U-bottom plates.
[0305] Tumor cells H929 were collected from a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator. Cells were counted and viability was determined using Trypan blue exclusion with the Vi-CELL XR Cell Viability Analyzer. Cell suspensions were removed from culture flasks and centrifuged at 400 x g for 5 minutes at room temperature. Target cells were then added at a density of 60,000 cells per 80pl of complete media in each well of 96-well U-bottom plates (1:3 effector (E): target (T) ratio).Trispecific antibody (BGCB491) preparation
[0306] BGCB491 was prepared at a 1 OX concentration in complete media to yield IX when 20pL were added for a total volume of 200pL in each well of a 96-well U-bottom plate.
