Solution Overview

Problem

Current immune therapies targeting PD-1 for treating cancers and immune disorders are limited in efficacy and specificity, necessitating the development of new and improved antibodies that can enhance immune responses and inhibit the interaction between PD-1 and its ligands.

Innovation Solution

Development of novel recombinant anti-PD-1 antibodies with specific H-CDR1-3 and L-CDR1-3 amino acid sequences, which exhibit high affinity and specificity for human PD-1, inhibiting the PD-1/PD-L1 interaction, and enhancing immune responses through increased cytokine secretion.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If currently available anti-PD-1 antibody treatments are used, then immune response is enhanced, but efficacy and specificity are limited

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveefficacyVSAvoidspecificity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by modifying the amino acid sequences of the antibody's complementarity-determining regions (CDRs), specifically H-CDR1-3 and L-CDR1-3, to optimize binding affinity and specificity. This involves changing the molecular parameters of the antibody structure to achieve superior clinical response while maintaining immune enhancement capabilities.

2Adaptability or versatility

If currently available anti-PD-1 antibody treatments are used, then immune response is enhanced, but specificity is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovespecificityVSAvoidefficacy
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent modifies specific amino acid parameters in the CDR regions to enhance binding specificity for human PD-1. By changing the molecular composition and structure of the antibody's antigen-binding sites, the invention achieves both improved specificity and maintained or enhanced efficacy in treating cancers.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Reliability

If novel recombinant antibodies with specific amino acid sequences are developed, then binding affinity and immune activation are enhanced, but development complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvebinding affinityVSAvoiddevelopment complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies segmentation by focusing development efforts on specific functional segments of the antibody molecule, namely the six CDR sequences (H-CDR1-3 and L-CDR1-3). By identifying and optimizing these critical segments independently, the complex development process is broken down into manageable parts, reducing overall development complexity while achieving enhanced binding affinity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The invention changes specific amino acid parameters in the CDR regions to optimize binding affinity. By systematically modifying and selecting sequences based on their binding properties, the patent reduces the complexity of developing high-affinity antibodies through a more directed and parameter-focused approach.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes
