[0003] Humanized CD 180 Antibodies and Uses Thereof.BACKGROUND

[0004] Cluster of Differentiation 180 (CD180), also known as LY64, Ly78. or RP105, is structurally related to the toll-like receptors (TLR), a family of pattern recognition receptors. CD 180 is a cell surface molecule having extracellular leucine-rich repeats (LRR) and a short cytoplasmic tail. Expression of CD180 appears to be restricted to the antigen-presenting cells including B cells, monocytes, dendritic cells, and macrophages. The extracellular LRR is associated with a molecule called MD-1 and forms the cell surface receptor complex, CD180 / MD-1. Signaling by CD 180 / MD- 1 regulates multiple immune functions. For example, CD180 / MD-1, by working in concert with TLR4, control B cell recognition and signaling of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a membrane constituent of Gram-negative bacteria. In addition, CD180 / MD-1 ligation inhibits TLR7- and TLR9-mediated activation of macrophages, dendritic cells, and B cells.

[0005] Current treatments for inflammatory diseases and autoimmune diseases and disorders by neutralizing pro-inflammatory cytokines such as the type 1 interferons can have a global effect, affecting the offending immune cells as well as non-immune bystander normal tissues, which may be a cause of undesired side effects. There is a need, therefore, for treatments that can specifically suppress the actions of proinflammatory immune cells to deliver targeted anti-inflammatory actions without globally suppressing normal immune functions in a patient’s body. Ligation of CD180 inhibits TLR7- and TLR9-mediated activation of the type 1 interferonAttorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT pathway in CD180-expressing B cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells and specifically modulates the type 1 interferon pathway. Anti-mouse CD 180 has demonstrated therapeutic efficacy in the imiquimod-induced and MRL / lpr lupus models in mice. Accordingly, there is a need for compositions and methods to selectively modulate CD 180 activity for treating autoimmunity and inflammatory disease in humans.SUMMARY

[0059] Compositions or methods “comprising” one or more recited elements may include other elements not specifically recited. For example, a composition that comprises antibody may contain the antibody alone or in combination with other ingredients.

[0060] A “polypeptide” or “polypeptide chain” refers to a polymer of amino acid residues joined by peptide bonds, whether produced naturally or synthetically. Polypeptides of less than about 10 amino acid residues are commonly referred to as “peptides.”

[0061] A “protein” is a macromolecule comprising one or more polypeptide chains. A protein may also comprise non-peptidic components, such as carbohydrate groups or other modifications. Carbohydrates and other non-peptidic substituents may be added to a protein by the cell in which the protein is produced, and will vary with the type of cell. Proteins are defined herein in terms of their amino acid backbone structures. Substituents such as carbohydrate groups are generally not specified, but may be present nonetheless.

[0062] The terms “amino-terminal” and “carboxy -terminal” denote positions within polypeptides. Where the context allows, these terms are used with reference to a particular sequence or portion of a polypeptide to denote proximity or relative position. For example, a certain sequence positioned carboxy -terminal to a reference sequence within a polypeptide is located proximal to the carboxy terminus of the reference sequence, but is not necessarily at the carboxy terminus of the complete polypeptide.

[0063] As used herein, amino acids are generally the naturally occurring L amino acid. Classes of amino acids are as follows: hydrophobic side chains: methionine (met), alanine (ala), valine (val), leucine (leu), and isoleucine (ile); neutral hydrophilic side chains: cysteine (cys), serine (ser), and threonine (thr); acidic side chains: aspartate (asp), and glutamate (glu); basic side chains: asparagine (asn), glutamine (gin), histidine (his), lysine (lys), and arginine (arg); residues influencing chain orientation: glycine (gly), and proline (pro); and aromatic side chains: tryptophan (trp), tyrosine (tyr), and phenylalanine (phe).

[0064] For purposes of classifying amino acids substitutions as conservative or nonconservative, the following amino acid substitutions are considered conservative substitutions: serine substituted by threonine, alanine, or asparagine; threonine substituted by proline or serine; asparagine substituted by aspartic acid, histidine, or serine; aspartic acid substituted by glutamic acid or asparagine; glutamic acid substituted by glutamine, lysine, or aspartic acid; glutamine substituted by arginine, lysine, or glutamic acid; histidine substituted by tyrosine or asparagine; arginine substituted by lysine or glutamine; methionine substituted by isoleucine, leucine or valine; isoleucine substituted by leucine, valine, or methionine; leucine substituted by valine, isoleucine, or methionine; phenylalanine substituted by tyrosine or tryptophan; tyrosine substituted by tryptophan, histidine, or phenylalanine; proline substituted byAttorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT threonine; alanine substituted by serine; lysine substituted by glutamic acid, glutamine, or arginine; valine substituted by methionine, isoleucine, or leucine; and tryptophan substituted by phenylalanine or tyrosine. Conservative substitutions can also mean substitutions between amino acids in the same class.

[0065] Two amino acid sequences have “100% amino acid sequence identity” (or are identical) if the amino acid residues of the two amino acid sequences are the same when aligned for maximal correspondence. Sequence comparisons are typically performed using standard software programs such as the NCBI BLAST Global Align program. Other methods for comparing two nucleotide or amino acid sequences by determining optimal alignment are well-known to those of skill in the art. (See, e.g., Peruski and Peruski, The Internet and the New Biology': Tools for Genomic and Molecular Research (ASM Press, Inc. 1997); Wu et al.(eds.), “Information Superhighway and Computer Databases of Nucleic Acids and Proteins,” in Methods in Gene Biotechnology 123-151 (CRC Press, Inc. 1997); Bishop (ed.), Guide to Human Genome Computing (2nd ed.. Academic Press, Inc. 1998).) Two amino acid sequences are considered to have “substantial sequence identity” if the two sequences have at least about 80%, 85%, 90%, or 95% identity relative to each other.

[0066] Percentage sequence identities can be determined for antibody sequences maximally aligned by the Kabat numbering convention. After alignment, if a subject protein or polypeptide region (e.g., an entire variable domain of a heavy or light chain of an antibody) is being compared with the same region of a reference protein or polypeptide (e.g., a second antibody), the percentage sequence identity between the subj ect and reference regions is the number of positions occupied by the same amino acid in both the subject and reference regions divided by the total number of aligned positions of the two regions, with gaps not counted, multiplied by 100 to convert to percentage.

[0067] In the antibodies or other proteins described herein, reference to amino acid residues corresponding to those specified by SEQ ID NO: includes post-translational modifications of such residues.

[0068] The term “antibody” denotes immunoglobulin proteins produced by the body in response to the presence of an antigen and that specifically bind to the antigen, as well as antigen-binding fragments and engineered variants thereof. Hence, the term “antibody” includes, for example, intact monoclonal antibodies (e.g., antibodies produced using hybndoma technology) and antigen-binding antibody fragments, such as a F(ab')2, a Fv fragment, a diabody, a single-chain antibody, an scFv fragment, or an scFv-Fc. Genetically, engineered intact antibodies and fragments such as humanized antibodies, single-chain Fv fragments, single-chain antibodies, diabodies, minibodies, linear antibodies, multivalent or multi-specific (e.g..Attorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT bispecific) hybrid antibodies, and the like, are also included. Thus, the term “antibody” is used expansively to include any protein that comprises an antigen-binding site of an antibody and is capable of specifically binding to its antigen.

[0069] An antibody can be monovalent, bivalent or multivalent. An antibody can be monospecific, bispecific or multi-specific.

[0070] The term antibody or anti gen -binding fragment thereof includes a “naked” or “unconjugated” antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof that is not bound (i.e., covalently or non-covalently bound) to another compound (other than the target antigen of the antibody).

[0071] The term “genetically engineered antibodies” refers to an antibody in which the amino acid sequence has been varied from that of the native or parental antibody. The possible variations are many, and range from the changing of just one or a few amino acids to the complete redesign of, for example, the variable or constant region. Changes in the constant region are, in general, made to improve or alter characteristics such as, e.g.. complement binding and other effector functions. Typically, changes in the variable region are made to improve antigen-binding characteristics, improve variable region stabi I i ty . and / or reduce the risk of immunogenicity .

[0072] An “antigen-binding fragment” or “antigen binding portion” of an antibody is that portion of an antibody that is sufficient to specifically bind to its target antigen. The minimum such region is typically a variable domain or a genetically engineered variant thereof. Single domain binding molecules can be generated from camelid antibodies (see Muyldermans and Lauwereys. Mol. Recog. 12: 131-140, 1999; Nguyen et al, EMBO J. 19:921-930, 2000) or from VH domains of other species to produce single-domain antibodies (“dAbs,” see Ward et al, Nature 341 :544-546, 1989; US Patent No. 6,248,516 to Winter et al). Commonly, an antigenbinding site of an antibody comprises both a heavy chain variable (VH) domain and a light chain variable (VL) domain that bind to a common epitope. Within the context of the present disclosure, an antibody may include one or more components in addition to an antigen-binding portion and may be a monomeric or multimeric protein. Examples of molecules comprising an antigen binding site of an antibody are know n in the art and include, for example, Fv, singlechain Fv (scFv), Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, F(ab)c, diabodies, minibodies, nanobodies, Fab-scFv fusions, bispecific (scFvjHgG, and bispecific (scFvty-Fab. (See. e.g., Hu et al, Cancer Res. 56:3055-3061, 1996; Atwell et al. Molecular Immunology 33: 1301-1312, 1996; Carter and Merchant, Curr. Op. Biotechnol. 8:449-454, 1997; Zuo et al, Protein Engineering 13:361-367, 2000; and Lu et al, J. Immunol. Methods 267:213-226, 2002.)

[0073] The term “immunoglobulin” refers to a protein consisting of one or more polypeptides substantially encoded by immunoglobulin gene(s). One form of immunoglobulinAttorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT constitutes the basic structural unit of native (i.e., natural or parental) antibodies in vertebrates. This form is a tetramer and consists of two pairs of immunoglobulin chains, each pair having one light chain and one heavy chain. In each pair, the light and heavy chain variable regions (VL and VH, respectively) are together primarily responsible for specific binding to an antigen, and the constant regions are primarily responsible for the antibody effector functions. Five classes of immunoglobulin protein (IgG, IgA, IgM, IgD, and IgE) have been identified in higher vertebrates. In humans, IgG immunoglobulins consist of four subclasses, designated IgGI, IgG2, IgG3. and IgG4. Each immunoglobulin heavy chain possesses a constant region that consists of constant region protein domains (CHI, hinge, CH2, and CH3; IgG3 also contains a CH4 domain) that are essentially invariant for a given subclass in a species.

[0074] DNA sequences encoding human and non-human immunoglobulin chains are known in the art. (See, e.g., Ellison et al. DNA 1: 11-18, 1981; Ellison et al, Nucleic Acids Res.10:4071-4079, 1982; Kenten et al.. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 79:6661-6665, 1982; Seno et al., Nucl. Acids Res. 11:719-726, 1983; Riechmann et al., Nature 332:323-327, 1988; Amster et al, Nucl. Acids Res. 8:2055-2065, 1980; Rusconi and Kohler, Nature 314:330-334, 1985; Boss et al, Nucl. Acids Res. 12:3791-3806, 1984; Bothwell et al, Nature 298:380-382, 1982; van der Loo et al., Immunogenetics 42:333-341, 1995; Karlin et al, J. Mol. Evol. 22: 195-208, 1985; Kindsvogel et al., DNA 1:335-343, 1982; Breiner et al, Gene 18: 165-174, 1982; Kondo et al, Eur. J.Immunol. 23:245-249, 1993; and GenBank Accession No. J00228.) For a review of immunoglobulin structure and function, see Putnam, The Plasma Proteins, Vol V, Academic Press, Inc., 49-140. 1987; and Padlan, Mol. Immunol. 31: 169-217, 1994. The term 'Immunoglobulin” is used herein for its common meaning, denoting an intact antibody, its component chains, or fragments of chains, depending on the context.

[0075] Full-length immunoglobulin “light chains” (about 25 kDa or 214 amino acids) are encoded by a variable region gene at the amino-terminus (encoding about 110 amino acids) and by a kappa or lambda constant region gene at the carboxy 1-terminus. Full-length immunoglobulin '‘heavy chains” (about 50 kDa or 446 amino acids) are encoded by a variable region gene (encoding about 116 amino acids) and a gamma, mu, alpha, delta, or epsilon constant region gene (encoding about 330 amino acids), the latter defining the antibody’s isotype as IgG, IgM, IgA, IgD or IgE, respectively. Within light and heavy chains, the variable and constant regions are joined by a “J” region of about 12 or more amino acids, with the heavy chain also including a “D” region of about 10 more amino acids. (See generally Fundamental Immunology (Paul, ed., Raven Press, N.Y., 2nd ed. 1989), Ch. 7.)

[0076] An immunoglobulin light or heavy chain variable region (also referred to herein as a “VL region” or a "VH region”, respectively) consists of a “framework” region interruptedAttorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT by three “complementarity determining regions’’ or “CDRs.” The framework regions serve to align the CDRs for specific binding to an epitope of an antigen. Thus, the term “CDR” refers to the amino acid residues of an antibody that are primarily responsible for antigen binding. From amino-terminus to carboxyl-terminus, both VL and VH domains comprise the following framework (FR) and CDR regions: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4.

[0077] The assignment of amino acids to each variable region domain is typically in accordance with the definitions of Kabat, Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, 1987 and 1991). Kabat also provides a widely used numbering convention (Kabat numbering) in which corresponding residues between different heavy chain variable regions or betw een different light chain variable regions are assigned the same number. CDRs 1 , 2 and 3 of a VL domain are also referred to herein, respectively, as CDRL1 or LI, CDRL2 or L2 and CDRL3 or L3. CDRs 1, 2 and 3 of a VH domain are also referred to herein, respectively, as CDRH1 or Hl, CDRH2 or H2 and CDRH3 or H3.

[0078] The assignment of CDRs also can be in accordance with other numbering systems, such as IMGT® numbering (Lefranc et al., Developmental & Comparative Immunology 2003, 27:55-77), Chothia (Chothia and Lesk, Canonical Structures for the Hypervariable Regions of Immunoglobulins, J. Mol. Biol. 1987, 196:901-917); AbM numbering (Abhinandan and Martin, Analysis and improvements to Kabat and structurally correct numbering of antibody variable domains, Mol. Immunol. 2008, 45(14):3832-3839) or Aho numbering (Honegger and Pluckthun, Yet Another Numbering Scheme for Immunoglobulin Variable Domains: An Automatic Modeling and Analysis Tool, J. Mol. Biol. 2001. 309:657-670) in lieu of Kabat. Unless otherwise indicated by content, the CDRs herein are designed according to Kabat.

[0079] Numbering of the heavy chain constant region is via the EU index as set forth in Kabat (Kabat, Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, 1987 and 1991).

[0080] Unless the context dictates otherwise, the term “monoclonal antibody” is not limited to antibodies produced through hybridoma technology7. The term “monoclonal antibody” can include an antibody that is derived from a single clone, including any eukaryotic, prokary otic or phage clone. In particular embodiments, the antibodies described herein are monoclonal antibodies.

[0081] The terms “humanized VH domain” or “humanized VL domain” refer to an immunoglobulin VH or VL domain comprising some or all CDRs entirely or substantially from a non-human donor immunoglobulin (e.g., a mouse or rat) and variable domain framework sequences entirely or substantially from human immunoglobulin sequences. The non-humanAttorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT immunoglobulin providing the CDRs is called the “donor” and the human immunoglobulin providing the framework is called the “acceptor.” In some instances, humanized antibodies will retain some non-human residues within the human variable domain framework regions to enhance proper binding characteristics (e.g.. substitutions in the frameworks may be required to preserve binding affinity when an antibody is humanized). Such residues may be referred to as “back mutations.”

[0082] A “humanized antibody” is an antibody comprising one or both of a humanized VH domain and a humanized VL domain. Immunoglobulin constant region(s) need not be present, but if they are, they are entirely or substantially from human immunoglobulin constant regions.

[0083] A humanized antibody is a genetically engineered antibody in which the CDRs from a non-human “donor” antibody are grafted into human “acceptor” antibody sequences (see, e.g., Queen, US 5,530,101 and 5,585,089; Winter. US 5,225,539; Carter, US 6.407,213; Adair. US 5,859,205; and Foote, US 6,881,557). The acceptor antibody sequences can be, for example, a mature human antibody sequence, a composite of such sequences, a consensus sequence of human antibody sequences, or a germline region sequence. Human acceptor sequences can be selected for a high degree of sequence identity in the variable region frameworks with donor sequences to match canonical forms between acceptor and donor CDRs among other criteria. Thus, a humanized antibody is an antibody having CDRs entirely or substantially from a donor antibody and variable region framework sequences and constant regions, if present, entirely or substantially from human antibody sequences. Similarly, a humanized heavy chain typically has all three CDRs entirely or substantially from a donor antibody variable region heavy chain, and a heavy chain variable region framework sequence and heavy chain constant region, if present, substantially from human heavy chain variable region framework and constant region sequences. Similarly, a humanized light chain typically has all three CDRs entirely or substantially from a donor antibody variable region light chain, and a light chain variable region framework sequence and light chain constant region, if present, substantially from human light chain variable region framework and constant region sequences. A CDR in a humanized antibody is substantially from a corresponding CDR in a non-human antibody when at least about 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98% or 99% of corresponding residues (as defined by Kabat numbering or other CDR numbering system), or wherein about 100% of corresponding residues (as defined by Kabat numbering or other CDR numbering system), are identical between the respective CDRs. The variable region framework sequences of an antibody chain or the constant region of an antibody chain are substantially from a human variable region framework sequence or human constant region respectively when atAttorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT least about 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98% or 99% of corresponding residues (as defined by Kabat numbering for the variable region and EU numbering for the constant region or other CDR numbering system), or about 100% of corresponding residues (as defined by Kabat numbering for the variable region and EU numbering for the constant region or other CDR numbering system) are identical.

[0084] Although humanized antibodies often incorporate all six CDRs (e.g., as defined by Kabat or IMGT® numbering) from a mouse antibody, they can also be made with fewer than all six CDRs (e.g., at least 3, 4, or 5) CDRs from a mouse antibody (see, e.g., Pascabs et al, J. Immunol. 169:3076, 2002; Vajdos et al, Journal of Molecular Biology, 320: 415-428, 2002; Iwahashi et al, Mol. Immunol. 36: 1079-1091, 1999; Tamura et al, Journal of Immunology7, 164: 1432- 1441, 2000).

[0085] Antibodies are typically provided in isolated form. This means that an antibody is typically at least about 50% w / w pure of interfering proteins and other contaminants arising from its production or purification but does not exclude the possibility that the antibody is combined with pharmaceutical acceptable carrier(s) or other vehicle intended to facilitate its use.Sometimes antibodies are at least about 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95% or 99% w / w pure of interfering proteins and contaminants from production or purification.

[0086] Specific binding of an antibody to its target antigen (or specifically binds) typically refers an affinity of at least about 10’6, 10'7, 10'8, 10'9, or 10’10M. Specific binding is delectably higher in magnitude and distinguishable from non-specific binding occurring to at least one non-specific target. Specific binding can be the result of formation of bonds between particular functional groups or particular spatial fit (e.g., lock and key type), whereas nonspecific binding is typically the result of van der Waals forces.

[0087] The term ‘‘epitope” refers to a site of an antigen to which an antibody or antigen binding fragment binds. An epitope can be formed from contiguous amino acids or noncontiguous amino acids juxtaposed by tertiary folding of one or more proteins. Epitopes formed from contiguous amino acids are typically retained upon exposure of the antigen to denaturing agents, e.g., solvents, whereas epitopes formed by tertiary folding are typically lost upon treatment of the antigen with denaturing agents, e.g., solvents. An epitope typically includes at least about 3, and more usually, at least about 5, 6, 7, or 8-10 amino acids in a unique spatial conformation. Methods of determining spatial conformation of epitopes include, for example, x-ray crystallography and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance. See, e.g., Epitope Mapping Protocols, in Methods in Molecular Biology, Vol. 66, Glenn E. Morris. Ed. (1996).Attorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT

[0088] Antibodies that recognize the same or overlapping epitopes can be identified in a simple immunoassay showing the ability of one antibody to compete with the binding of another antibody to a target antigen. The epitope of an antibody can also be defined by X-ray crystallography of the antibody bound to its antigen to identify contact residues.

[0089] Alternatively, two antibodies have the same epitope if all amino acid mutations in the antigen that reduce or eliminate binding of one antibody reduce or eliminate binding of the other (provided that such mutations do not produce a global alteration in antigen structure). Two antibodies have overlapping epitopes if some amino acid mutations that reduce or eliminate binding of one antibody reduce or eliminate binding of the other antibody.

[0090] Competition between antibodies can be determined by an assay in which a test antibody inhibits specific binding of a reference antibody to a common antigen (see, e.g., Junghans et al, Cancer Res. 50: 1495, 1990). A test antibody competes with a reference antibody if an excess of a test antibody inhibits binding of the reference antibody.

[0091] Antibodies identified by competition assay (competing antibodies) include antibodies that bind to the same epitope as the reference antibody and antibodies that bind to an adjacent epitope sufficiently proximal to the epitope bound by the reference antibody for steric hindrance to occur. Antibodies identified by a competition assay also include those that indirectly compete with a reference antibody by causing a conformational change in the target protein thereby preventing binding of the reference antibody to a different epitope than that bound by the test antibody.

[0092] An antibody effector function refers to a function contributed by an Fc region or constant region. Such functions can be, for example, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP), or complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC). Such function(s) can be effected by, for example, binding of an Fc region to an Fc receptor on an immune cell with phagocytic or lytic activity or by binding of an Fc region to components of the complement system. Fc regions of antibodies can recruit Fc receptor (FcR)-expressing cells and juxtapose them with antibody -coated target cells. Cells expressing surface FcR for IgGs, including FcyRIII (CD16), FcyRII (CD32) and FcyRIII (CD64), can act as effector cells for the destruction of IgG-coated cells. Such effector cells include monocytes, macrophages, natural killer (NK) cells, neutrophils and eosinophils. Engagement of FcyR by IgG activates ADCC or ADCP. ADCC is mediated by CD16+ effector cells through the secretion of membrane pore-forming proteins and proteases, while phagocytosis is mediated by' CD32+ and CD64+ effector cells (see Fundamental Immunology7, 4th ed., Paul ed., Lippincott-Raven, N.Y., 1997, Chapters 3, 17 and 30; Uchida et al, J. Exp. Med. 199: 1659-69, 2004; Akewanlop et al, Cancer Res. 61:4061-65. 2001; Watanabe et al, Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 53: 199-207. 1999).Attorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT

[0093] In addition to ADCC and ADCP, Fc regions of cell-bound antibodies can also activate the complement classical pathway to elicit CDC. Clq of the complement system binds to the Fc regions of antibodies when they are complexed with antigens. Binding of Clq to cellbound antibodies can initiate a cascade of events involving the proteolytic activation of C4 and C2 to generate the C3 convertase. Cleavage of C3 to C3b by C3 convertase enables the activation of terminal complement components including C5b, C6, C7, C8 and C9. Collectively, these proteins form membrane-attack complex pores on the antibody-coated cells. These pores disrupt the cell membrane integrity, killing the target cell (see Immunobiology, 6th ed.. Janeway et al, Garland Science, N. Y., 2005, Chapter 2).

[0094] The term “antibody -dependent cellular cytotoxicity” or “ADCC” refers to a mechanism for inducing cell death that depends on the interaction of antibody-coated target cells with immune cells possessing lytic activity (also referred to as effector cells). Such effector cells include natural killer cells, monocytes / macrophages and neutrophils. The effector cells attach to an Fc region of immunoglobulin bound to target cells via their antigen-combining sites. Death of the antibody-coated target cell occurs as a result of effector cell activity'. In certain exemplary embodiments, an anti-CD180 antibody mediates decreased or no ADCC relative to a parental antibody. As used herein, no ADCC means less than 1% of the activity of the parental antibody having a human IgGl Fc region.

[0095] The term “antibody -dependent cellular phagocytosis” or “ADCP” refers to the process by which antibody-coated cells are internalized, either in whole or in part, by phagocytic immune cells (e.g., by macrophages, neutrophils and / or dendritic cells) that bind to an Fc region of 1g. In certain exemplary embodiments, an anti-CD180 antibody mediates decreased or no ADCP relative to a parental antibody. As used herein, no ADCC means less than 1% of the activity' of the parental antibody having a human IgGl Fc region.

[0096] The term “complement-dependent cytotoxicity” or “CDC” refers to a mechanism for inducing cell death in which an Fc region of a target-bound antibody activates a series of enzymatic reactions culminating in the formation of holes in the target cell membrane. Typically, antigen-antibody complexes such as those on antibody-coated target cells bind and activate complement component Clq, which in turn activates the complement cascade leading to target cell death. Activation of complement may also result in deposition of complement components on the target cell surface that facilitate ADCC by binding complement receptors (e.g., CR3) on leukocytes. In certain exemplary embodiments, an anti-CD180 antibody mediates decreased or no CDC relative to a parental antibody. As used herein, no ADCC means less than 1% of the activity of the parental antibody having a human IgGl Fc region.Attorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT

[0097] The term “effector function null” refers to an antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof that has no ADCP, no ADCC and no CDC. In some embodiments, an effector function null antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof refers to an antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof that has less than 1% binding to FcR (Fc receptors) and Clq, as compared to a parental control antibody having a human IgGl Fc region.

[0098] The terms “expression unit” and “expression cassette” are used interchangeably herein and denote a nucleic acid segment encoding a polypeptide of interest and capable of providing expression of the nucleic acid segment in a host cell. An expression unit typically comprises a transcription promoter, an open reading frame encoding the polypeptide of interest, and a transcription terminator, all operably linked. In addition to a transcriptional promoter and terminator, an expression unit may further include other nucleic acid segments such as, e.g., an enhancer or a polyadenylation signal.

[0099] The term “expression vector” refers to a nucleic acid molecule, linear or circular, comprising one or more expression units. In addition to one or more expression units, an expression vector may also include additional nucleic acid segments such as, for example, one or more origins of replication or one or more selectable markers. Expression vectors are generally derived from plasmid or viral DNA, or may contain elements of both.

[0100] The term “patient” or “subject” includes human and other mammalian subjects such as non-human primates, rabbits, rats, mice, and the like, and transgenic species thereof, that receive either prophylactic or therapeutic treatment. In certain exemplary embodiments, a subject is a human patient.

[0101] The term “effective amount,” in the context of treatment of a CD180-expressing disorder by administration of an anti-CD180 antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof as described herein, refers to an amount of such antibody or fragment that is sufficient to increase upregulation of CD86, increase phosphorylation of protein S6, and / or increase phosphorylation of protein AKT in antigen presenting cells (such as B cells). In some embodiments, an effective amount of a CD 180 antibody inhibits the occurrence of or ameliorates one or more symptoms of a CD180-related disorder, such as an autoimmune or inflammatory disease or disorder. An effective amount of an antibody is administered in an “effective regimen.” The term “effective regimen” refers to a combination of amount of the antibody being administered and dosage frequency adequate to accomplish prophylactic or therapeutic treatment of the disorder.

[0102] The term “pharmaceutically acceptable” means approved or approvable by a regulatory agency of the Federal or a state government or listed in the U.S. Pharmacopeia or other generally recognized pharmacopeia for use in animals, and more particularly in humans.Attorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT The term “pharmaceutically compatible ingredient” refers to a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent, adjuvant, excipient, or vehicle with which an anti-CD180 antibody is formulated.

[0103] The phrase “pharmaceutically acceptable salt,” refers to pharmaceutically acceptable organic or inorganic salts. Exemplary’ salts include sulfate, citrate, acetate, oxalate, chloride, bromide, iodide, nitrate, bisulfate, phosphate, acid phosphate, isonicotinate, lactate, salicylate, acid citrate, tartrate, oleate, tannate, pantothenate, bitartrate, ascorbate, succinate, maleate, gentisinate, fumarate, gluconate, glucuronate, saccharate, formate, benzoate, glutamate, methanesulfonate, ethanesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, p-toluenesulfonate. and pamoate (i.e., 1,1'-methylene bis-(2 hydroxy -3 -naphthoate) salts. A pharmaceutically acceptable salt may further comprise an additional molecule such as, e.g., an acetate ion, a succinate ion or other counterion. A counterion may be any organic or inorganic moiety7that stabilizes the charge on the parent compound.

[0170] A humanized CD180 antibody can be an intact antibody or antigenbinding fragment thereof. In some embodiments, a humanized CD 180 antibody is an intact antibody. In some embodiments, a humanized CD 180 antibody is an antigen binding fragment. In some embodiments, a humanized CD 180 antibody or antigen binding fragment is monovalent.

[0172] The humanized CD 180 antibodies and antigen- binding fragments thereof optionally may be glycosylated at conserved positions in their constant regions (Jefferis andAttorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT Lund, (1997) Chem. Immunol. 65: 111-128; Wright and Momson, (1997) TibTECH 15:26-32). The oligosaccharide side chains of the immunoglobulins affect the protein’s function (Boyd et al., (1996) Mol. Immunol. 32: 1311-1318; Wittwe and Howard, (1990) Biochem. 29:4175-4180), and the intramolecular interaction between portions of the glycoprotein which can affect the conformation and presented three-dimensional surface of the glycoprotein (Jefferis and Lund, supra; Wyss and Wagner, (1996) Current Op. Biotech. 7:409-416). Oligosaccharides may also serve to target a given glycoprotein to certain molecules based upon specific recognition structures. For example, it has been reported that in agalactosylated IgG, the oligosaccharide moiety 'flips’ out of the inter-CH2 space and terminal N-acetylglucosamine residues become available to bind mannose binding protein (Malhotra et al, (1995) Nature Med. 1:237-243). Removal by glycopeptidase of the oligosaccharides from CAMPATH- 1H (a recombinant humanized murine monoclonal IgGl antibody which recognizes the CDw52 antigen of human lymphocytes) produced in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells resulted in a complete reduction in complement mediated lysis (CMCL or CDC) (Boyd et al., (1996) Mol. Immunol. 32: 1311-1318), while selective removal of sialic acid residues using neuraminidase resulted in no loss of CMCL. Glycosylation of antibodies has also been reported to affect antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity’ (ADCC). In particular, CHO cells with tetracycline-regulated expression of a(l,4)-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase III (GnTIII), a glycosyltransferase catalyzing formation of bisecting GlcNAc, was reported to have improved ADCC activity7(Umana et al. (1999) Mature Biotech. 17: 176-180).

[0173] Glycosylation of antibodies is typically either N-linked or O-linked. N-linked refers to the attachment of the carbohydrate moiety to the side chain of an asparagine residue. The tripeptide sequences asparagine-X-serine and asparagine-X-threonine, where X is any amino acid except proline, are the recognition sequences for enzy matic attachment of the carbohydrate moiety to the asparagine side chain. Thus, the presence of either of these tripeptide sequences in a polypeptide creates a potential glycosylation site. O-linked glycosylation refers to the attachment of one of the sugars N-acetylgalactosamine, galactose, or xylose to a hydroxyamino acid, most commonly serine or threonine, although 5 -hydroxy proline or 5-hydroxylysine may also be used.

[0174] Glycosylation variants of antibodies are variants in which the glycosylation pattern of an antibody is altered as compared to a parental or reference antibody. By altering is meant deleting one or more carbohydrate moieties found in the antibody, adding one or more carbohydrate moieties to the antibody, changing the composition of glycosylation (glycosylation pattern), the extent of glycosylation, etc.Attorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT

[0175] Addition of glycosylation sites to a humanized anti-CDl 80 antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof can be accomplished by altering the amino acid sequence such that it contains one or more of the above-described tripeptide sequences (for N-linked glycosylation sites). The alteration may also be made by the addition of, or substitution by. one or more serine or threonine residues to the sequence of the original antibody (for O-linked glycosylation sites). Similarly, removal of glycosylation sites can be accomplished by amino acid alteration within the native glycosylation sites of the antibody.

[0176] The amino acid sequence is typically altered by changing the underlying nucleic acid sequence. These methods include isolation from a natural source (in the case of naturally-occurring amino acid sequence variants) or preparation by oligonucleotide-mediated (or site-directed) mutagenesis, PCR mutagenesis, and cassette mutagenesis of an earlier prepared variant or anon-variant version of the antibody.

[0177] The glycosylation (including glycosylation pattern) of antibodies may also be altered without changing the amino acid sequence or the underlying nucleotide sequence. Glycosylation largely depends on the host cell used to express the antibody. Since the cell type used for expression of recombinant glycoproteins, e.g., antibodies, as potential therapeutics is rarely the native cell, significant variations in the glycosylation pattern of the antibodies can be expected. See, e.g., Hse et al, (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272:9062-9070. In addition to the choice of host cells, factors which affect glycosylation during recombinant production of antibodies include grow th mode, media formulation, culture density, oxygenation, pH, purification schemes and the like. Various methods have been proposed to alter the glycosylation pattern achieved in a particular host organism including introducing or overexpressing certain enzymes involved in oligosaccharide production (see, e.g., U.S. Patent Nos. 5047335; 5510261; and 5278299).Glycosylation, or certain ty pes of glycosylation, can be enzymatically removed from the glycoprotein, for example using endoglycosidase H (Endo H). In addition, the recombinant host cell can be genetically engineered, e.g., make defective in processing certain types of polysaccharides. These and similar techniques are well known in the art.

[0178] The glycosylation structure of antibodies can be readily analyzed by conventional techniques of carbohydrate analysis, including lectin chromatography, NMR, mass spectrometry, HPLC. GPC, monosaccharide compositional analysis, sequential enzymatic digestion, and HPAEC-PAD, which uses high pH anion exchange chromatography to separate oligosaccharides based on charge. Methods for releasing oligosaccharides for analytical purposes are also known, and include, without limitation, enzymatic treatment (commonly performed using peptide-N-glycosidase F / endo-P-galactosidase), elimination using harsh alkalineAttorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT environment to release mainly O-linked structures, and chemical methods using anhydrous hydrazine to release both N-and O-linked oligosaccharides.

[0179] In some embodiments, a form of modification of glycosylation of antibodies is reduced core fucosylation. "‘Core fucosylation" refers to addition of fucose (“fucosylation”) to N-acetylglucosamine (“GlcNAc”) at the reducing terminal of an N-linked glycan.

[0180] A “complex N-gly coside-linked sugar chain’' is ty pically bound to asparagine 297 (according to the number of Kabat). As used herein, the complex N-gly coside-linked sugar chain has a biantennary composite sugar chain, mainly having the following structure:'i'AFucrxl ♦AGa^t — * 4GicNAc[l1 — *2MaiwGlcNAs[) 1 - 1 - — *- 4GlcNAc31 ► 4GlcN Ac3♦AGalH — ► 4G1cNA.o[51 — *where + / - indicates the sugar molecule can be present or absent, and the numbers indicate the position of linkages between the sugar molecules. In the above structure, the sugar chain terminal which binds to asparagine is called a reducing terminal (at right), and the opposite side is called a non-reducing terminal. Fucose is usually bound to N-acetylglucosamine (“GlcNAc”) of the reducing terminal, typically by an al, 6 bond (the 6-position of GlcNAc is linked to the 1 -position of fucose). “Gal” refers to galactose, and “Man” refers to mannose.

[0181] A “complex N-glycoside-linked sugar chain” includes: 1) a complex type, in which the non-reducing terminal side of the core structure has one or more branches of galactose-N-acetylglucosamine (also referred to as “gal-GlcNAc") and the non-reducing terminal side of Gal-GlcNAc optionally has a sialic acid, bisecting N-acetylglucosamine or the like; or 2) a hybrid type, in which the non-reducing terminal side of the core structure has both branches of a high mannose N-glycoside-linked sugar chain and complex N-glycoside-linked sugar chain. In some embodiments, the “complex N-glycoside-linked sugar chain” includes a complex type in which the non-reducing terminal side of the core structure has zero, one or more branches of galactose-N-acetylglucosamine (also referred to as “gal-GlcNAc”) and the non-reducing terminal side of Gal-GlcNAc optionally further has a structure such as a sialic acid, bisecting N-acetylglucosamine or the like.Attorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT Methods of making non-fucosylated antibodies by incubating antibody -producing cells with a fucose analogue are described, e.g., in W02009 / 135181. Briefly, cells that have been engineered to express a humanized CD 180 antibody or antigen binding fragment are incubated in the presence of a fucose analogue or an intracellular metabolite or product of the fucose analog. An intracellular metabolite can be, for example, a GDP-modified analog or a fully or partially de-esterified analog. A product can be, for example, a fully or partially de-esterified analog. In some embodiments, a fucose analogue can inhibit an enzyme(s) in the fucose salvage pathway. For example, a fucose analog (or an intracellular metabolite or product of the fucose analog) can inhibit the activity of fucokinase, or GDP-fucose-pyrophosphorylase. In some embodiments, a fucose analog (or an intracellular metabolite or product of the fucose analog) inhibits fucosyltransferase (e.g., a 1,6-fucosyltransferase, e.g., the FUT8 protein). In some embodiments, a fucose analog (or an intracellular metabolite or product of the fucose analog) can inhibit the activity of an enzyme in the de novo synthetic pathway for fucose. For example, a fucose analog (or an intracellular metabolite or product of the fucose analog) can inhibit the activity of GDP-mannose 4,6-dehydratase or / or GDP-fucose synthetase. In some embodiments, the fucose analog (or an intracellular metabolite or product of the fucose analog) can inhibit a fucose transporter (e.g., GDP-fucose transporter).In some embodiments, the fucose analogue is 2-flurofucose. Methods of using fucose analogues in growth medium and other fucose analogues are disclosed, e.g., in W02009 / 135181, which is herein incorporated by reference.

[0182] In certain embodiments, only a minor amount of a fucose analog (or a metabolite or product of the fucose analog) is incorporated into the complex N -glycoside-linked sugar chain(s). For example, in various embodiments, less than about 60%, less than about 50%, less than about 40%, less than about 30%, less than about 20%, less than about 15%, less than about 10%, less than about 5%, or less than about 3% of the humanized CD180 antibodies have core fucosylation by a fucose analog or a metabolite or product of the fucose analog. In some embodiments, about 2% of the CD 180 antibodies have core fucosylation by a fucose analog or a metabolite or product of the fucose analog.

[0183] Other methods for engineering cell lines to reduce core fucosylation included gene knock outs, gene knock-ins and RNA interference (RNAi). In gene knock-outs, the gene encoding FUT8 (alpha 1,6- fucosyltransferase enzyme) is inactivated. FUT8 catalyzes the transfer of a fucosyl residue from GDP-fucose to position 6 of Asn-linked (N-linked) GlcNac of an N-glycan. FUT8 is reported to be the only enzyme responsible for adding fucose to the N-linked biantennary carbohydrate at Asn297. Gene knock-ins add genes encoding enzy mes such as GNTIII or a Golgi alpha mannosidase II. An increase in the levels of such enzymes in cellsAttorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT diverts monoclonal antibodies from the fucosylation pathway (leading to decreased core fucosylation), and having increased amount of bisecting N-acetylglucosamines. RNAi typically also targets FUT8 gene expression, leading to decreased mRNA transcript levels or knocking out gene expression entirely. Any of these methods can be used to generate a cell line that would be able to produce a non-fucosylated antibody.

[0184] Many methods are available to determine the amount of fucosylation on an antibody. Methods include, e.g., LC-MS via PLRP-S chromatography and electrospray ionization quadrupole TOF MS.IX. Fc MODIFICATION

[0185] In some embodiments, an Fc region of a humanized CD 180 antibody or an antigen binding fragment thereof is altered by replacing at least one amino acid residue in the Fc region with a different amino acid residue to alter the effector function(s) of the antibody. For example, one or more amino acids can be replaced with a different amino acid residue such that the antibody has an altered affinity for an effector ligand but retains the antigen-binding ability of the parent antibody.

[0186] As used herein, the terms “isotype constant region’7or “Fc region” are used interchangeably to define the C-terminal region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain, including native sequence Fc regions and variant Fc regions. The human IgG heavy chain Fc region is generally defined as comprising the amino acid residue from position C226 or from P230 to the carboxyl-terminus of the IgG antibody, wherein the numbering is according to the EU numbering system. The C-terminal lysine (residue K447) of the Fc region may be removed, for example, during production or purification of the antibody or its corresponding codon deleted in the recombinant constructs. Accordingly, a composition of the humanized CD 180 antibodies of the disclosure may comprise antibody populations with all K447 residues removed, antibody¬ populations with no K447 residues removed, and antibody populations having a mixture of antibodies with and without the K447 residue.

[0187] In some specific embodiments, the hinge region of CHI is modified such that the number of cysteine residues in the hinge region is altered, e.g., increased or decreased. This approach is described further in U.S. Patent No. 5,677.425 by Bodmer et al. In some embodiments, the number of cysteine residues in the hinge region of CHI is altered to, for example, facilitate assembly of the light and heavy chains or to increase or decrease the stability of the antibody.

[0188] In some embodiments, the Fc hinge region of an antibody is modified to decrease the biological half-life of the antibody. More specifically, one or more amino acidAttorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT substitutions are introduced into the CH2-CH3 domain interface region of the Fc-hinge fragment such that the antibody has impaired Staphylococcyl protein A (SpA) binding relative to native Fc-hinge domain SpA binding. This approach is described in further detail in U.S. Patent No. 6.165,745 by Ward et al.

[0189] An Fc region may interact with different types of Fc receptors (FRs). The different types of FcRs may include, for example, FcgRI, FcgRIIA, FcgRIIB, FcgRIIIA, FcgRIIIB, FcaRI, FcpR, FceRI, FceRII, and FcRn. FcRs may be located on the membrane of certain immune cells including, for example, B lymphocytes, natural killer cells, macrophages, neutrophils, follicular dendritic cells, eosinophils, basophils, platelets, and mast cells. Once the FcR is engaged by the Fc region, the FcR may initiate functions including, for example, clearance of an antigen-antibody complex via receptor-mediated endocytosis, antibodydependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), antibody dependent cell-mediated phagocytosis (ADCP), and ligand-triggered transmission of signals across the plasma membrane that can result in alterations in secretion, exocytosis, and cellular metabolism. FcRs may deliver signals when FcRs are aggregated by antibodies and multivalent antigens at the cell surface.

[0190] In some embodiments, an Fc region of the antibody can exhibit increased binding affinity to one or more Fc receptors. In some embodiments, an Fc region can exhibit increased binding affinity to one or more Fcgamma receptors. In some embodiments, an Fc region can exhibit increased binding affinity to FcRn receptors. In some embodiments, an Fc region can exhibit increased binding affinity to Fcgamma and FcRn receptors.

In some embodiments, an Fc region can exhibit reduced binding affinity to one or more Fcgamma receptors. In some embodiments, an Fc region exhibit reduced binding affinity to FcRn receptors. In some embodiments, an Fc region can exhibit reduced binding affinity to Fcgamma and FcRn receptors. In some embodiments, an Fc region is an Fc null. In some embodiments, an Fc region can exhibit reduced binding affinity to FcRn receptors, but have the same or increased binding affinity to one or more Fcgamma receptors as compared to a wildtype IgG. In some embodiments, an Fc region can exhibit increased binding affinity' to FcRn receptors, but have the same or decreased binding affinity to one or more Fcgamma receptors. As used herein, an “Fc null” refers to an Fc region or a domain thereof that exhibits weak to no binding to any of the Fcgamma receptors. In some embodiments, an Fc null exhibits a reduction in binding affinity (e.g., increase in Kd) to Fc gamma receptors of at least 1000-fold. In some embodiments, an Fc region is an effector function null. As used herein, an “effector function null” exhibits essentially no ADCC, ADCP and CDC activity(i.e.. less than 1% of the parental antibody having a human IgGl Fc region).Attorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT

[0192] In some embodiments, an Fc region may have one or more, two or more, three or more, or four or more amino acid substitutions that decrease binding of the Fc region to an Fc receptor. In certain embodiments, an Fc region has decreased binding affinity for one or more of FcgRI (CD64), FcgRIIA (CD32), FcgRIIIA (CD 16a), FcgRIIIB (CD 16b), or any combination thereof.

[0193] In some embodiments, the one or more substitutions comprise any one or more of IgGl heavy chain substitutions corresponding to E233P, L234V, L234A, L235A, L235E, AG236, G237A, E318A, K320A, K322A, A327G, A330S, orP331S, according to the EU index of Kabat numbering.

Therapeutic Applications

[0230] Provided herein are methods of treating disorders associated with cells that express CD180, e.g.. autoimmune and inflammatory diseases and disorders. The cells may or may not express elevated levels of CD 180 relative to cells that are not associated with a disorder of interest. As a result, the disclosure provides a method of treating a subject, for example, a subject having an autoimmune or inflammatory disease or disorder, using the humanized anti-CD180 antibodies or antigen binding fragment thereof described herein. The method comprises administering an effective amount of a humanized anti-CD180 antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof or a composition comprising a humanized anti-CD180 antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof to a subject in need thereof.

[0231] As used herein, the terms “subject’" and “patient" refer to organisms to be treated by the methods of the present disclosure with a humanized CD 180 antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof. Such organisms may include, but are not limited to, mammals (e.g., murines, simians, equines, bovines, porcines, canines, felines, and the like), and humans. In some embodiments, the organism is a human. As used herein, the terms, “treat"’, “treatment” and “treating” include any effect, e.g., lessening, reducing, modulating, ameliorating or eliminating, that results in the improvement of the condition, disease, disorder, and the like, or ameliorating a symptom thereof, such as for example, an autoimmune or inflammatory disease or disorder.

[0232] As used herein, the term “effective amount” refers to the amount of a compound (e g., a humanized anti-CD180 antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof) sufficient to effect beneficial or desired results. An effective amount can be administered in oneAttorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT or more administrations, applications or dosages and is not intended to be limited to a particular formulation or administration route. Generally, a therapeutically effective amount of active component is in the range of 0.1 mg / kg to 100 mg / kg, e.g., 1 mg / kg to 100 mg / kg, 1 mg / kg to 10 mg / kg. The dosage administered can vary depending upon known factors, such as the pharmacodynamic characteristics of the particular agent, and its mode and route of administration; the age, health, and weight of the recipient; the type and extent of disease or indication to be treated, the nature and extent of symptoms, kind of concurrent treatment, frequency of treatment, and the effect desired. The initial dosage can be increased beyond the upper level in order to rapidly achieve the desired blood-level or tissue-level. Alternatively, the initial dosage can be smaller than the optimum, and the daily dosage may be progressively increased during the course of treatment. Dosing frequency can vary7, depending on factors such as route of administration, dosage amount, serum half-life of the humanized CD 180 antibody or antigen binding fragment, and the disease being treated. Exemplary dosing frequencies are once per day, once per week and once every two weeks. Formulation of monoclonal antibody-based drugs is within ordinary skill in the art. In some embodiments, a monoclonal antibody is lyophilized, and then reconstituted in buffered saline, at the time of administration.

[0233] In certain exemplary’ embodiments, the present disclosure provides a method for treating an autoimmune or inflammatory disease or disorder in a subject or patient. In particular embodiments, the present disclosure provides a method for treating an autoimmune or inflammatory' disease or disorder in a human. Exemplary’ examples include, but are not limited to, autoimmune or inflammatory diseases or disorder such as Type 1 diabetes; systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE); autoimmune encephalomyelitis, scleroderma, or psoriasis.

[0234] The methods and compositions of the disclosure can be used in combination with other therapeutic agents and / or modalities. The term administered “in combination,” as used herein, is understood to mean that two (or more) different treatments are delivered to the subject during the course of the subject’s affliction with the disorder, such that the effects of the treatments on the patient overlap at a point in time. In certain embodiments, the delivery' of one treatment is still occurring when the delivery of the second begins, so that there is overlap in terms of administration. This is sometimes referred to herein as “simultaneous” or “concurrent delivery.” In other embodiments, the delivery of one treatment ends before the delivery' of the other treatment begins. In some embodiments of either case, the treatment is more effective because of combined administration. For example, the second treatment is more effective, e.g., an equivalent effect is seen with less of the second treatment, or the second treatment reduces symptoms to a greater extent, than would be seen if the second treatment were administered in the absence of the first treatment, or the analogous situation is seen with the firstAttorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT treatment. In some embodiments, delivery is such that the reduction in a symptom, or other parameter related to the disorder is greater than what would be observed with one treatment delivered in the absence of the other. The effect of the two treatments can be partially additive, wholly additive, or greater than additive (i.e., a synergistic response). The delivery can be such that an effect of the first treatment delivered is still detectable when the second is delivered.

[0235] In some embodiments, the methods of the disclosure include administering to the subject a humanized anti-CD180 antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof as described herein, e.g., a composition or preparation, in combination with one or more additional therapies.

[0257] Humanized versions of the murine G28-8 antibody (having heavy and light chain variable region sequences set forth in SEQ ID NOs: 1 and 2, respectively) and the MHR73-11 antibody (having heavy and light chain variable region sequences set forth in SEQ ID NOs:48 and 49, respectively) were prepared. These humanized antibodies are designated hzG28-8.X and hzMHR73-l 1-X, respectively. For humanization, the murine antibody framework sequences were compared to the sequences of human antibody germline genes in V-Base (MRC, Center for Protein Engineering). Human germline frameworks with the highest framework homology, VH1-03 (SEQ ID NO:38) and VKI-02 (SEQ ID NO:40), were selected for Kabat-defined CDR-grafting. Three-dimensional structural models were generated to assist in the selection of residues in the murine framework regions that may be necessary to restore any decreased binding or functional activity resulting from the CDR-grafting. Several amino acid substitutions (back mutations) were evaluated in the heavy chain variable region (T28S, R66K, V67A, I69L, R71V) and light chain variable region (I48V, D70Q). Substitutions G64V and Y49N were also evaluated in G28-8 and MHR73-11 variable light regions, respectively. The heavy chain variable regions contain a potential deamidation site in CDRH2 (by Kabat numbering). Substitutions N54S, N54Q and G55A were included in hzG28-8 and hzMHR73-l 1 humanized sequences individually to test the effects of removing this motif.

[0258] Antibodies were generated using either a contract research organization or produced using in-house facilities. Humanized variable region sequences were ordered from Integrated DNA Technologies Inc. and cloned into vector pcDNA3.4 containing either theAttorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT human kappa light chain (SEQ ID NO:44) or IgGl.l (SEQ ID NO:43) sequences. IgGl.l is a null effector variant of wild-type IgGl that has substitutions resulting in the reduction of Fey receptor binding and abi lity to fix complement (Gross et al., Immunity, 15:289-302 (2001)). The variable domains were fused to antibody constant domains using NEBuilder® HiFi DNA Assembly and transformed into ToplO Chemically Competent E. coli. Colonies were selected and expanded in Luria Broth and isolated using Qiagen’s HiSpeed Plasmid Maxi Kit according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Maxi preps were sequenced and the desired clones were selected. Plasmids were transfected into ExpiCho cells (ThermoFisher) according to manufacturer’s standard protocol instructions and supernatants were harvested for purification. Antibodies were purified from the filtered conditioned media using a combination of Mab Select PrismA™ affinity chromatography resin and SUPERDEX® 200 Size exclusion chromatography. Yields were estimated by absorbance at UV-A280 nm, and quality of the antibody preparations was evaluated by analytical size exclusion high performance liquid chromatography.

[0260] Select humanized anti-CD180 antibodies were tested for the ability to bind to 293T cells co-expressing human CD 180 and human MD1. Cells were stained with a titration of each anti-CD180 antibody. Bound antibodies were detected with a fluorescently conjugated anti-human IgG polyclonal secondary antibody (anti-hlgG PE or APC). The fluorescence intensity was measured using an Attune NxT flow cytometer (ThermoFisher). The geometric mean fluorescence intensity7(gMFI) of anti-CD180 antibody staining was calculated for live cells (FlowJo™ software). EC50s for antibody binding were calculated using GraphPad Prism software. Initial studies were carried out using antibodies in the form of supernatants from cultures of host cells transfected with recombinant antibody expression vectors.

[0261] As shown in Table 9, the anti-CD180 antibodies derived from parental antibody G28-8 bound to CD180 / MDI expressing 293T cells with nanomolar EC50s. Within the variability7of the assay, no significant loss in binding yvas observed across any of the antibodies tested. Referring to Table 9 and Figure 1, a series of antibodies having changes in the heavy chain variable region framework sequences and no changes in the light chain variable region framework sequences were evaluated. These antibodies yvere hzG28-8.1 (having a CDR- grafted human VH1-03 heavy chain variable region (no framework back mutations) and a CDR- grafted light chain variable region (no framework back mutations)). hzG28-8.2 (having a CDR- grafted human heavy chain variable region containing a T28S framework back mutation and a CDR-grafted light chain variable region (no framework back mutations)), hzG28-8.3 (having a CDR-grafted human heavy chain variable region containing R66K, V67A, I69L and R71V framework back mutations and a CDR-grafted light chain variable region (no framework back mutations)), and hzG28-8.4 (having a CDR-grafted human heavy chain variable region containing the T28S, R66K, V67A, I69L and R71V framework back mutations and a CDR- grafted light chain variable region (no framework back mutations). These antibodies had comparable binding.Attorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCT

[0262] Referring to Table 10, combining the same CDR grafted heavy chain variable regions with the murine light chain variable region produced similar results (see antibodies hzG28-8.60 to hzG28-8.63). When the murine G28-8 heavy chain variable region was combined with a CDR-grafted human light chain variable region with no back mutations (see antibody hzG28-8.64), the resulting antibody had an EC50 comparable to the parental chimeric antibody.

[0263] The binding of antibody hzG28-8.69 (containing a CDR-grafted human heavy chain variable region (no framework back mutations) and a CDR grafted light chain variable region containing three framework back mutations, I48V, G64V and D70Q) was compared to the binding of antibody hzG28-8.71 (having a CDR-grafted human heavy chain variable regions containing R66K, V67A, I69L and R71V framework back mutations and the CDR grafted light chain variable region containing three framework back mutations, I48V. G64V and D70Q), and to the binding of antibody hzG28-8.81 (having the murine G28-8 heavy chain variable region and a CDR grafted light chain variable region containing three framework back mutations, I48V, G64V and D70Q). All three antibodies, antibodies hzG28-8.69, hzG28-8.71 and hzG28-8.81, exhibited similar binding.

[0264] Antibodies hzG28-8.87 and hzG28-8.88 were then assayed for binding to determine if a reduced set of framework back mutations in the heavy chain variable region (I69L and R71V, or R66K and V67A, respectively) in combination with a light chain variable region containing three framework back mutations (I48V, G64V and D70Q) to determine their EC50 values. Both antibodies exhibited similar binding as compared to antibody hzG28-8.71 (containing all four framework back mutations in the heavy chain variable region).

[0265] A deamidation site is present in CDRH2 (Kabat). To determine whether the deamidation site could be removed without affecting binding, antibodies G28-8.L1 to G28-8.L3 were tested. These antibodies contained N54S, N54Q and G55A substitutions, respectively, in CDRH2 in the murine heavy chain variable region. Antibody G28-8.L1 had reduced binding while antibodies G28-8.L2 and G28-8.L3 exhibited binding similar to the parental antibody. These three CDRH2 substitutions were then introduced into the hzG28-8.71 heavy chain variable region to yield antibodies hzG28-8.93 (N54Q), hzG28-8.97 (N54S) and hzG28-8.98 (G55A). Antibodies hzG28-8.93 (N54Q) and hzG28-8.98 (G55A) showed good binding activity compared to antibody hzG28-8.97 (N54S), indicating that some substitutions removing the deamidation site could be removed while retaining good binding activity.Attorney Docket No: 01434-0001-00PCTTable 9.
