Solution Overview

Problem

Current antibody drugs, such as anti-PD-1, TIGIT, and PVRIG antibodies, face challenges due to their large molecular weights and complex structures, leading to instability and degradation, which affects their efficacy in cancer immunotherapy.

Innovation Solution

A pharmaceutical composition comprising a PD-1/PVRIG/TIGIT-binding protein, stabilized by a citrate or histidine buffer, with specific antigen-binding domains for PD-1, PVRIG, and TIGIT, enhancing stability and efficacy.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If antibody drugs are used for cancer immunotherapy, then therapeutic efficacy is improved, but stability and degradation resistance deteriorate due to large molecular weight and complex structure

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetherapeutic efficacyVSAvoidprotein stability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the large antibody molecule into smaller binding proteins that specifically target PD-1, PVRIG, and TIGIT. This segmentation reduces molecular weight and complexity while maintaining therapeutic efficacy through targeted immune checkpoint inhibition, thereby improving stability without sacrificing reliability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the molecular parameters by developing binding proteins with optimized molecular weights and structural configurations. These parameter changes reduce the complexity-associated instability of full-size antibodies while preserving the immunotherapeutic function through specific binding to immune checkpoint receptors

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Reliability

If multiple immune checkpoint targets (PD-1, PVRIG, TIGIT) are addressed simultaneously, then therapeutic efficacy is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetherapeutic efficacyVSAvoidcomposition complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple binding specificities into a single composition by combining binding proteins that target PD-1, PVRIG, and TIGIT. This merging approach achieves multi-target immunotherapy efficacy while managing complexity through a unified pharmaceutical formulation rather than separate treatments

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The binding proteins in the composition exhibit multi-functionality by simultaneously addressing multiple immune checkpoint pathways (PD-1, PVRIG, TIGIT). This universality allows a single composition to perform multiple therapeutic functions, improving efficacy without proportionally increasing complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
