Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of biological medicine, in particular to an antibody specifically binding to a B cell maturation antigen, and preparation and application thereof.
Background
T cells are one of the lymphocytes and play an important role in cell-mediated immunity. It differs from other lymphocytes, such as B cells and natural killer cells (NK cells), in the presence of T Cell Receptors (TCRs) on the cell surface. T helper cells, also known as CD4 + T or CD 4T cells express CD4 glycoprotein on their surface. Helper T cells are activated when exposed to peptide antigens presented by MHC (major histocompatibility complex) class II molecules. Once activated, such cells proliferate rapidly and secrete availableCytokines that regulate the immune response. Cytotoxic T cells, also known as CD8 + T cells or CD8T cells express CD8 glycoproteins on the cell surface. CD8 + T cells are activated when exposed to peptide antigens presented by MHC class I molecules. Memory T cells are a subpopulation of T cells that persist and respond to related antigens, thus providing the immune system with memory against past infection and/or tumor cells.
The T cell modified by chimeric antigen receptor (chimeric antigen receptor, abbreviated as CAR) is CAR-T, and is modified by genetic engineering means under in vitro culture conditions so as to express exogenous anti-tumor genes. The CAR gene is an artificially designed gene fragment, and the encoded protein mainly comprises an extracellular recognition domain and an intracellular signal transduction domain: the former is a specific antibody fragment for targeted recognition of tumor surface specific molecules; the latter is used to initiate a specifically recognized immune cell response, exerting cellular immunity. After genetic engineering, T cells can produce chimeric antigen receptors on their surface. CARs are proteins that allow T cells to recognize a specific protein (antigen) on tumor cells. Genetically engineered CAR T cells can be grown in the laboratory until their number reaches billions. The expanded CART cells may then be infused into a patient.
B cell maturation antigen (B Cell Maturation Antigen, BCMA) is a cell surface receptor encoded by the human TNFRSF17 gene, which binds to B cell activating factor (B cell activating factor, BAFF) and proliferation inducing ligand (APRIL), playing an important role in B lymphocyte differentiation and autoimmune response. Therefore, the polypeptide has high expression in part of B lymphocyte-related hematological tumors, is an excellent target with strong patent medicine potential, and the indications include but are not limited to Multiple Myeloma (MM), acute myelogenous leukemia (Acute myeloid leukemia, AML) and the like.
A number of anti-BCMA CAR constructs have been described. In 2013, carpenter et al disclosed a T cell approach to anti-BCMA CAR transduction, a preclinical study using a combination of in vitro and animal (mouse) assays (Carpenter et al 2013;Clin Cancer Res;19 (8); 2048-2060). 6 months 2015, bluebird and Celgene initiated research collaboration for BCMA CAR-T cell therapy. At the beginning of 2016, the university of pennsylvania cancer center (Abramson Cancer Center) began recruitment of patients with multiple myeloma using anti-BCMA CAR T. CARs for BCMA or corresponding CAR T have been described, for example, in WO2018/028647, WO2017/211900, WO2016/014789, WO2016/094304, WO2016/014565 and WO2013/154760, etc. CN109134665a also discloses a BCMA chimeric antigen receptor based on single domain antibody and application.
Although many potential replacement therapies are under development, there remains a need to provide effective methods to address conditions associated with the presence of pathogenic B cells, particularly multiple myeloma, acute myelogenous leukemia. This is mainly because off-target and recurrence is easily caused during the relevant immunotherapy.

Detailed Description
Multiple myeloma, also known as plasmacytoma, is a currently refractory B-cell lymphoma that is derived from malignant transformed plasma cell clones, and the disease usually recurs and develops resistance after a multiple line treatment regimen.
CART or NK cells directed against BMCA of the invention can target B cell maturation antigens (BMCA) and thus can be used to treat cancers associated with BMCA, such as multiple myeloma or acute myelogenous leukemia, because BCMA is highly expressed in multiple myeloma tumor cells and acute myelogenous leukemia, but not in normal B cells or precursor B cells. In addition, in anti-CD 19 antibodies or anti-CD 19 CAR-T or NK cell therapies directed against B cells, non-hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL) resistance occurs due to the loss of the targeted cancer cell surface antigen, and thus new alternative targets are needed. For B-NHL, BCMA can be a suitable target, therefore, the high affinity anti-BCMA CAR-T or NK cells of the invention should also be therapeutically useful for B-NHL.
Since the anti-BCMA CAR of the present invention confers extremely high avidity to T cells or NK cells, it can also be used to identify B cell lymphomas that are low in BCMA expression. In addition, the anti-BCMA CAR-T or-NK of the invention is not reactive to normal T cells, B cells, NK cells, endothelial cells, all myeloid lineages and their precursor cells. Thus, the anti-BCMA CAR-T or-NK of the invention does not have undesired reactivity towards bone marrow cell precursors.
The high affinity of the CAR of the invention enables the CAR-T cells to a) recognize tumor target cells with high, medium and low BCMA surface expression, to have low off-target reactivity, b) be activated against the tumor target cells, and c) kill the tumor target cells. Thus, the anti-BCMA CAR-T of the present invention can be used to treat a variety of lymphomas, multiple myeloma tumor cells and acute myelogenous leukemia and B-NHL, such as follicular lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, among others.
In an in vitro co-culture system, after specifically recognizing BCMA antigen on RPMI 8226 (human multiple myeloma cell line), the anti-BCMA CAR-T cells of the present invention activate the immune response of T cells through the activation domain of the CAR molecule, inducing the lysis of target cells RPMI 8226; the target cells released LDH (lactate dehydrogenase ) after lysis, and by detecting LDH levels in the reaction system, the actual cytotoxicity of CAR-T cells can be measured compared to the control group.
Animal experiments prove that the anti-BCMA CAR-T cell can obviously kill multiple myeloma cells.
Meanwhile, the in vitro killing effect of the fusion protein BCMA-PE24 containing the antibody of the invention on RPMI 8226 cells is also proved by experiments.
Chimeric antigen receptor:
the CAR comprises an extracellular domain derived from an antibody and an intracellular domain comprising a signaling module derived from a T cell signaling protein. In one embodiment, the extracellular domain may comprise a heavy chain variable region from an immunoglobulin, or variable regions comprising a heavy chain and a light chain, e.g., constructed as a single chain variable fragment (scFv), preferably a single domain antibody (sdAb) with only heavy chain variable regions. The sdAb is linked to a hinge region that provides flexibility and transduction of signals to intracellular signaling domains through a transmembrane domain. The transmembrane domain is preferably derived from CD8 a. In the first generation of CARs (the term "generation" is for the intracellular signaling domain) the intracellular signaling domain consists of the zeta chain of the TCR complex. The second generation CARs were designed to contain a single co-stimulatory domain derived from CD28 or 4-1 BB. Third generation CARs include two costimulatory domains, e.g., 4-1BB-CD3 ζ. The present invention preferably relates to a second generation or third generation CAR.
The present invention provides genetically engineered receptors that redirect cytotoxicity of immune effector cells to B cells. These genetically engineered receptors are referred to herein as Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs). CARs are chimeric protein molecules with specific anti-BCMA cellular immune activity based on the combination of antibody specificity targeting an antigen (e.g., BCMA) with the intracellular domain of an activated T cell receptor or NK cell receptor. In this context, the term "chimeric" refers to compositions of different proteins or DNA from different sources.
The CARs of the invention include an extracellular domain (also referred to as a binding domain or antigen binding domain) that binds BCMA, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular domain or intracellular signaling domain. Binding of the anti-BCMA antigen binding domain of the CAR to BCMA on the surface of the target cell results in aggregation of the CAR and delivery of an activation stimulus to the CAR-containing cells. The CAR is capable of specifically redirecting immune effector cells, thereby eliciting proliferation, cytokine production, phagocytosis or cell killing of target antigen expressing cells.
In some embodiments of the invention, the CAR comprises the following domains: a humanized extracellular binding domain that specifically binds BCMA; a transmembrane domain; one or more intracellular signaling domains. In some embodiments, the CAR sequentially comprises an extracellular binding domain of a humanized BCMA antigen binding fragment; one or more spacer regions; a transmembrane domain; one or more intracellular signaling domains.
An "extracellular antigen-binding domain" or "extracellular binding domain" is used interchangeably and provides the CAR with the ability to specifically bind to the target antigen BCMA of interest. The binding domain may be derived from natural, synthetic, semisynthetic or recombinant sources. Preferred are sdabs of recombinant origin.
"specific binding" is understood by those skilled in the art to be well known to various experimental methods or means that can be used to test binding and binding specificity. Methods for determining equilibrium association or equilibrium dissociation constants are known in the art. In many protein-protein interactions, some cross-reaction or background binding may occur, but this does not compromise the "specificity" of binding between CAR and epitope. "specific binding" describes the binding of an anti-BCMA antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof (CAR also comprising them) to BCMA with a binding affinity that is higher than background binding.
An "antigen (Ag)" refers to a compound, composition or substance that can stimulate antibody production or a T cell response in an animal. In some embodiments of the invention, the target antigen is an epitope of a BCMA polypeptide. An "epitope" refers to a region of an antigen that binds to a binding agent. Epitopes can be formed by contiguous amino acids or non-contiguous amino acids that result in the tertiary structure of a protein.
A "single chain Fv" or "scFv" antibody fragment comprises the VH and VL domains of an antibody, wherein these domains are present as a single polypeptide chain and in either direction (e.g., VL-VH or VH-VL). Typically, the scFv polypeptide further comprises a polypeptide linker between the VH domain and the VL domain that enables the scFv to form the desired structure for antigen binding. In a preferred embodiment, the CAR of the invention comprises an antigen-specific binding domain that is an scFv and may be a murine, human or humanized scFv. Single chain antibodies can be cloned from the V region gene of a hybridoma specific for a desired target. In a particular embodiment, the antigen-specific binding domain is a humanized scFv that binds a human BCMA polypeptide. Illustrative examples of variable heavy chains suitable for use in constructing the BCMA-resistant CARs of the present invention include, but are not limited to, the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NOs: 2, and a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence shown in (a). Illustrative examples of variable light chains suitable for use in constructing an anti-BCMA CAR of the present invention include any variable light chain of an anti-BCMA antibody, including, but not limited to, the variable light chain in CN109641012 a.
Antibodies and antibody fragments:
the CAR comprises an extracellular antigen-binding domain comprising an antibody or antibody fragment that binds a B Cell Maturation Antigen (BCMA) polypeptide. Thus, antibodies or antibody fragments of the invention include, but are not limited to, polyclonal, monoclonal, bispecific, human, humanized or chimeric antibodies, single chain fragments (scFv), single variable fragments (ssFv), single domain antibodies (e.g., VHH fragments from nanobodies), fab fragments, F (ab') 2 Fragments, fragments generated from Fab expression libraries, anti-idiotype antibodies and epitope-binding fragments, or a combination of any of the foregoing, provided that they have similar binding properties of the CARs of the invention, preferably comprising corresponding CDRs, or VH and VL regions, as described herein. Micro-and multivalent antibodies such as diabodies, trivalent antibodies, tetravalent antibodies and pentavalent antibodies may also be used in the methods of the invention. The immunoglobulin molecules of the invention may be of any class (i.e., igG, igE, igM, igD and IgA) or subclass of immunoglobulin molecules. Thus, as used herein, the term antibody also includes antibodies and antibody fragments encompassed by the CARs of the invention, which are produced by modification of intact antibodies or re-synthesized using recombinant DNA methods.
As used herein, "antibody" generally refers to a protein consisting essentially of one or more polypeptides encoded by immunoglobulin genes or immunoglobulin gene fragments. When the term "antibody" is used, it may also be considered to refer to "antibody fragments". Optionally, the antibody or antibody fragment may be chemically conjugated to or expressed as a fusion protein with other proteins or other proteins. In some embodiments, the antibodies or antigen binding fragments of the invention are comprised on a multispecific antibody, e.g., a bispecific antibody. Such multispecific antibodies may be produced by known methods, e.g., crosslinking two or more antibodies, antigen-binding fragments (e.g., scFv) of the same type or of different types. Exemplary methods of making multispecific antibodies include those described in PCT patent publication No. WO2013/163427, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
The affinity of the binding domain polypeptides and antibodies or antibody fragments or CAR proteins of the invention can be readily determined using conventional techniques, for example by competitive ELISA (enzyme linked immunosorbent assay), or using a surface plasmon resonance device (such as Biacore).
Humanized antibodies comprising one or more CDRs of an antibody or antibody fragment of the invention or comprising one or more CDRs derived from the antibody or antibody fragment can be prepared using methods known in the art. For example, four steps can generally be used to humanize monoclonal antibodies: (1) Determining the nucleotide and predicted amino acid sequences of the light and heavy chain variable domains of the starting antibody; (2) Designing a humanized antibody, i.e., determining which antibody framework regions to use in the humanization process; (3) developing humanization methods/techniques; and (4) transfection and expression of humanized antibodies. See, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 6,180,370.
The term humanized antibody means an immunoglobulin derived from or modified to human immunoglobulin sequences from at least a portion of the framework and optionally a portion of the CDR regions or other regions involved in binding. Humanized, chimeric or partially humanized forms of mouse monoclonal antibodies can be prepared, for example, by recombinant DNA techniques. Humanized versions of mouse antibodies can be generated by joining the CDR regions of a non-human antibody to human constant regions by recombinant DNA techniques (Queen et al, 1989; WO 90/07861). Alternatively, the monoclonal antibody used in the methods of the invention may be a human monoclonal antibody. Human antibodies can be obtained, for example, using phage display (WO 91/17271; WO 92/01047).
As used herein, humanized antibodies also refer to forms of non-human (e.g., murine, camel, llama, shark) antibodies, which are specific chimeric immunoglobulins, immunoglobulin chains or fragments thereof (e.g., fv, fab, fab ', F (ab') 2 Or other antigen binding subsequences of antibodies, e.g., vHH.
As used herein, a human or humanized antibody or antibody fragment refers to an antibody having an amino acid sequence corresponding to that of a human produced antibody, and can be prepared using any technique known in the art for preparing antibodies. The human antibody or fragment thereof may be selected by competitive binding experiments or other means to determine that it has the same epitope binding specificity as a particular mouse antibody.
Variable regions and CDRs
The variable region of an antibody refers to the variable region of an antibody light chain alone or the variable region of an antibody heavy chain or a combination of both. The heavy and light chain variable regions each consist of four Framework Regions (FR) connected by three Complementarity Determining Regions (CDRs), also known as hypervariable regions. The CDRs in each chain are held together in close proximity by the FR and, together with CDRs from the other chains, contribute to the formation of the antigen binding site of the antibody.
CDRs are mainly responsible for binding to epitopes. There are a number of methods available for determining the boundaries of CDR amino acid sequences, such as Kabat et al, sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, (5 th edition, 1991, national institutes of health, bethesda Md, "Kabat" numbering scheme); AI-Lazikani B, lesk AM, chothia C.Standard conformations for the canonical structures of immunoglobins.J.mol.biol.1997; 273:927-48 ("Chothia" numbering scheme); lefranc et al ("IMGT unique numbering for immunoglobulin and T cell receptor varia ble domain sand lg superfamily V-like domains," Dev. Comp. Immunol.,27:55-77, 2003; "IMGT" numbering scheme); or North, B, lehmann A, dunback R.A new clustering of antibody CDR loop conformations: j.mol.biol. (2011), 406 (2): 228-256. Alternative methods include, in addition to the above methods, new solutions developed with the development of bioinformatics. Although Kabat is the most commonly used method, CDRs may refer to CDRs defined by one or more methods, or by a combination of these methods.
Illustratively, the positions of the heavy chain variable region CDRs in the respective VHHs, as determined according to North, kabat, chothia and IMGT numbering schemes, are shown in table 1 below. The CDRs referred to herein may be CDRs or CDR combinations determined by the same method, or CDRs or CDR combinations determined by different methods. For example, an antibody of the invention may contain HCDR1, HCDR2 and HCDR3 of one of Lead1-19 as determined by any of North, kabat, chothia and IMGT. Or an antibody of the invention contains HCDR1, HCDR2 of Lead1 as determined by North and HCDR3 of one of Lead2-19 as determined by Kabat. One skilled in the art can freely select CDRs identified by different methods and can freely combine these CDRs.
TABLE 1
In some embodiments, the invention provides an antibody or fragment thereof comprising a CAR, wherein the antibody or fragment thereof comprises at least one CDR, at least two, or at least three CDRs substantially identical to at least one CDR, at least two, or at least three CDRs of an antibody of the invention. In some embodiments, the at least one, two, or three CDRs have at least about 70%, 75%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identity with at least one, two, or three CDRs of an antibody of the invention. It will be appreciated that for the purposes of the present invention, binding specificity and/or overall activity is generally retained, although the degree of activity may vary (may be greater or less) than the antibody.
In certain embodiments, substitutions, insertions, or deletions may be present in one or more CDRs, provided that such changes do not substantially reduce the ability of the antibody to bind to an antigen. For example, conservative changes (e.g., conservative substitutions as provided herein) may be made in the CDRs that do not substantially reduce binding affinity. In certain embodiments of the variant VH and VL sequences provided above, each CDR may be unchanged or comprise no more than one, two or three amino acid substitutions, insertions or deletions. For example, the CDR sequences SEQ ID NO: 10. 11 or 12, or one, two or three amino acids may be substituted, inserted or deleted with the same class of amino acids, and still retain the ability to bind human BCMA. Or the CDR sequences SEQ ID NO: 16. 17 or 18 may be substituted, inserted or deleted with one, two or three amino acids of the same class and still retain the ability to bind human BCMA. Alternatively, the CDR sequences SEQ ID NO: 20. 21 or 22 may be substituted, inserted or deleted with one, two or three amino acids of the same class and still retain the ability to bind human BCMA. Alternatively, the antibodies of the invention comprise the HCDR1, HCDR2 and HCDR3 identified by the same method as shown in table 1, read 2, read 3, read 4, read 5, read 6, read 7, read 8, read 9, read 10, read 11, read 12, read 13, read 14, read 15, read 16, read 17, read 18, or read 19, or a combination of HCDR1, HCDR2 and HCDR3 identified by different methods.
For mutable sites, reference may be made to, for example, cunningham and Wells (1989) Science,244: 1081-1085. This method that can be used to identify residues or regions of an antibody that can be targeted for mutation is referred to as "alanine scanning mutagenesis". In this method, a residue or set of target residues (e.g., charged residues such as arg, asp, his, lys and glu) are identified and replaced with neutral or negatively charged amino acids (e.g., alanine or polyalanine) to determine whether the interaction of the antibody with the antigen is affected. It is contemplated that additional substitutions may be introduced at amino acid positions that exhibit functional sensitivity to the initial substitution. Alternatively, or in addition, the crystal structure of the antigen-antibody complex is used to identify the point of contact between the antibody and the antigen. Such contact residues and adjacent residues may be targeted as candidates for replacement. Variants may be screened to determine whether they contain the desired property.
For example, as shown in this disclosure, CDR1 (AAS) in Lead 1 (SEQ ID NO: 2)GFTLDYYAIG) is replaced with AASDSTVELThe Lead 3 antibody remained active after YAIG. That is, after 5 amino acid residues are replaced, the mutated antibody remains active.
It should therefore be clearly understood that although the claims herein do not specifically define the specific sequence of the mutated CDR, the skilled person can make mutations (e.g. in the case of substitution, deletion or addition of 1, 2 or 3 amino acid residues in the CDR regions identified in the present invention, although the substitution of 5 amino acid residues is described above) according to the prior art, to find mutated CDRs which retain the activity of the antibody, and antibodies comprising mutated CDRs belong to the obvious variants of the antibodies of the invention and are thus covered by the scope of the invention.
Further elucidation of chimeric antigen receptors
In certain embodiments, a CAR of the invention may comprise a linker residue between the individual domains added for proper spacing and conformation of the molecule, e.g., a linker comprising an amino acid sequence that connects the VH domain and the VL domain and provides a spacer function compatible with the interaction of the two sub-binding domains, such that the resulting polypeptide retains a specific binding affinity for the target molecule. The CARs of the invention may comprise one, two, three, four, or five or more linkers. In particular embodiments, the linker is about 1 to about 25 amino acids in length, about 5 to about 20 amino acids, or about 10 to about 20 amino acids in length, or any suitable length of amino acids.
Illustrative examples of linkers include glycine polymers; glycine-serine polymer; glycine-alanine polymer; alanine-serine polymers; other flexible joints are known in the art, such as a Wheatstone joint. Glycine and glycine-serine polymers are relatively unstructured and therefore can serve as linkages between domains of fusion proteins or some of them (e.g., CARs as described herein).
In particular embodiments, the binding domain of the CAR is followed by one or more "spacers" or "spacer polypeptides," corresponding to linkers that distance the antigen binding domain from the effector cell surface to enable proper cell-to-cell contact, antigen binding, and activation. In certain embodiments, the spacer region is part of an immunoglobulin, including but not limited to one or more heavy chain constant regions, such as CH2 and CH3. The spacer region may comprise the amino acid sequence of a naturally occurring immunoglobulin hinge region or an altered immunoglobulin hinge region. In one embodiment, the spacer region comprises CH2 and CH3 domains of IgG1 or IgG 4.
In some embodiments, the binding domain of the CAR may be followed by one or more "hinge domains" that are located away from the effector cell surface to enable proper cell-to-cell contact, antigen binding, and activation. The CAR may comprise one or more hinge domains between the binding domain and the transmembrane domain (TM). The hinge domain may be of natural, synthetic, semisynthetic or recombinant origin. The hinge domain may comprise a naturally occurring immunoglobulin hinge region or an amino acid sequence of an altered immunoglobulin hinge region. Exemplary hinge domains suitable for use in the CARs described herein include hinge regions derived from the extracellular regions of type 1 membrane proteins (e.g., CD8 a, CD4, CD28, PD1, CD152, and CD 7), which may be wild-type hinge regions from these molecules, or may be altered. In another embodiment, the hinge domain comprises a PD1, CD152, or CD8 a hinge region.
The "transmembrane domain" is the portion of the CAR that fuses the extracellular binding moiety and the intracellular signaling domain and anchors the CAR to the plasma membrane of the immune effector cell. The TM domain may be derived from natural, synthetic, semisynthetic, or recombinant sources. The TM domain may be derived from the α, β or ζ chain, CD3 epsilon, CD3 zeta, CD4, CD5, CD8 alpha, CD9, CD16, CD22, CD27, CD28, CD33, CD37, CD45, CD64, CD80, CD86, CD134, CD137, CD152, CD154, and PD1 of a T cell receptor. In one embodiment, the CAR of the invention comprises a TM domain derived from CD8 a or CD 28.
In a particular embodiment, a CAR of the invention comprises an intracellular signaling domain. An "intracellular signaling domain" refers to a domain that is involved in transduction of information that is effective against BCMACAR binding to human BCMA polypeptide into immune effector cells to elicit effector cell functions (e.g., activation, cytokine production, proliferation, and cytotoxic activity, including release of cytotoxic factors to target cells to which the CAR binds) or other cellular responses elicited by antigen binding extracellular CAR domains. The term "effector function" refers to the specialized function of immune effector cells. For example, the effector function of a T cell may be cytolytic activity or assistance or activity including cytokine secretion. The term "intracellular signaling domain" refers to the portion of a protein that transduces effector function signals and directs cells to perform a specialized function.
The CARs of the invention comprise one or more co-stimulatory signaling domains to enhance the efficacy, expansion and/or memory formation of T cells expressing the CAR receptor. As used herein, the term "costimulatory signaling domain" refers to the intracellular signaling domain of a CAR molecule that provides a second signal required for efficient activation and function of T lymphocytes upon binding to an antigen.
Illustratively, a CAR of the invention comprises an antibody of the invention. Further exemplary, the CARs of the invention are in addition to SEQ ID NOs: 6, other antibodies of the invention, such as read 2, read 3, read 4, read 5, read 6, read 7, read 8, read 9, read 10, read 11, read 12, read 13, read 14, read 15, read 16, read 17, read 18, or read 19, may be substituted for SEQ ID NO: CAR obtained after Lead1 in 6.
Proteins
"protein", "polypeptide fragment" and "polypeptide" are used interchangeably, unless indicated to the contrary, and are used in accordance with conventional meanings, i.e. as amino acid sequences. Proteins are not limited to a particular length, e.g., they may comprise a full-length protein sequence or fragment of a full-length protein, and may include post-translational modifications of polypeptides (e.g., glycosylation, acetylation, phosphorylation, etc.) and include other modifications known in the art both naturally occurring and non-naturally occurring.
In various embodiments, a CAR polypeptide or protein of the invention comprises a signal (or leader) sequence at the N-terminus of the protein that is capable of directing protein transfer upon or after translation. The polypeptides may be prepared using a variety of well known recombinant and/or synthetic techniques. The polypeptides of the invention specifically include the CARs of the disclosure, or sequences having deletions, additions, and/or substitutions of one or more (e.g., 1-20, 1-10, or 1-5) amino acids of the CARs disclosed herein.
Nucleic acid
As used herein, the term "polynucleotide" refers to mRNA, RNA, genomic RNA (gRNA), positive strand RNA (+)), negative strand RNA (-)), genomic DNA (gDNA), complementary DNA (cDNA), or recombinant DNA. Polynucleotides include single-stranded and double-stranded polynucleotides. Preferably, a polynucleotide of the invention comprises a polynucleotide or variant having at least about 70%,71%,72%,73%,74%,75%,76%,77%,78%,79%,80%,81%,82%,83%,84%,85%,86%,87%,88%,89%,90%,91%,92%,94%,95%,96%,97%,98%,99%,99.5%,99.9% or 100% sequence identity to any of the reference sequences described herein, typically wherein the variant retains at least one biological activity of the reference sequence.
Illustratively, the encoded BCMA binding domains of the present invention-CD 8 alpha range-CD 8 TM The sequence of the polynucleotide of the-4-1 BB-CD3 zeta fusion protein is any DNA sequence capable of encoding the fusion protein, preferably the sequence is SEQ ID NO:5 or a complement thereof. In another aspect, the encoded BCMA binding domain of the present invention-CD 8 alpha range-CD 8 TM The sequence of the polynucleotide of the-4-1 BB-CD3 ζ fusion protein may be identical under stringent conditions to the sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:5, and encoding a polynucleotide of the fusion protein or a complement thereof;
the "stringent conditions" described herein may be any of low stringency conditions, medium stringency conditions, high stringency conditions, preferably high stringency conditions. Illustratively, the "low stringency conditions" can be conditions of 30 ℃, 5 x SSC, 5 x Denhardt's solution, 0.5% sds, 52% formamide; "Medium stringent conditions" may be conditions of 40 ℃, 5 XSSC, 5 XDenhardt's solution, 0.5% SDS, 52% formamide; "high stringency conditions" can be conditions of 50℃in 5 XSSC, 5 XDenhardt's solution, 0.5% SDS, 52% formamide. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that higher temperatures result in polynucleotides with higher homology. In addition, one skilled in the art can select the combination of factors such as temperature, probe concentration, probe length, ionic strength, time, salt concentration, etc., that affect the stringency of hybridization to achieve the corresponding stringency.
In addition to this, the hybridizable polynucleotide may be, for example, a polynucleotide which, when calculated by the same search software as FASTA, BLAST, etc., has the same default parameters set by the system as the polynucleotide encoding SEQ ID NO: the polynucleotide of 5 has about 70% or more, 71% or more, 72% or more, 73% or more, 74% or more, 75% or more, 76% or more, 77% or more, 78% or more, 79% or more, 80% or more, 81% or more, 82% or more, 83% or more, 84% or more, 85% or more, 86% or more, 87% or more, 88% or more, 89% or more, 90% or more, 91% or more, 92% or more, 93% or more, 94% or more, 95% or more, 96% or more, 97% or more, 98% or more, 99% or more, 99.1 or more, 99.2 or more, 99.3% or more, 99.4% or more, 99.5% or more, 99.6% or more, 99.7% or more, 99.8% or more, or 99.8% or more.
Nucleotide sequence identity can be determined using the algorithm rules BLAST of Karlin and Altschul (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 87:2264-2268, 1990;Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.USA 90:5873, 1993). Programs BLASTN, BLASTX based on BLAST algorithm rules have been developed (AltschulSF, et al J Mol Biol 215:403, 1990). When a BLASTN is used to analyze a base sequence, parameters are score=100 and wordlength=12; furthermore, when BLASTX is used to analyze amino acid sequences, parameters are score=50, wordlength=3; when BLAST and Gapped BLAST programs are used, the system employing each program can set default parameter values.
Polynucleotides may be prepared, manipulated and/or expressed using any of a variety of maturation techniques known and available in the art. In order to express the desired polypeptide or protein, the nucleotide sequence encoding the polypeptide may be inserted into a suitable vector. Examples of vectors are plasmids, autonomously replicating sequences and transposable elements. Additional exemplary vectors include, but are not limited to, plasmids, phagemids, cosmids, artificial chromosomes (e.g., yeast Artificial Chromosomes (YACs), bacterial Artificial Chromosomes (BACs) or P1-derived artificial chromosomes (PACs)), phages (e.g., lambda phage or M13 phage), and animal viruses. Examples of animal viral vectors include, but are not limited to, retroviruses (including lentiviruses), adenoviruses, adeno-associated viruses, herpesviruses (e.g., herpes simplex viruses), poxviruses, baculoviruses, papillomaviruses, and papovaviruses (e.g., SV 40). An example of an expression vector is the pClneo vector (Promega) for expression in mammalian cells; lenti4/V5-DESTTM, pLenti/V5-DESTTM and pLenti6.2/V5-GW/lacZ (Invitrogen) for lentivirus-mediated gene transfer and expression in mammalian cells. In particular embodiments, the coding sequences of the chimeric proteins disclosed herein can be linked to such expression vectors for expression of the chimeric proteins in mammalian cells. "control elements" or "regulatory sequences" present in an expression vector are the untranslated regions of the vector (e.g., origins of replication, promoters, enhancers, translational initiation signals (SD sequences or Kozak sequences) introns, polyadenylation sequences, 5 'and 3' untranslated regions) that interact with host cell proteins for transcription and translation. The strength and specificity of such elements or sequences may vary. Any number of suitable transcription and translation elements or sequences may be used, including broadly expressed promoters and inducible promoters, depending on the vector system and host used.
Related ADC
Antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) technology is a target-directed technology that allows selective killing or inhibition of the growth or division of cancer cells. Typically, ADCs act by targeting cancer cells with antibodies and then releasing toxic substances (i.e., drugs) in the cells, thereby triggering cell death. ADC technology increases the efficacy of therapeutic or targeted antibodies and reduces the risk of adverse reactions, as it allows for accurate delivery of drugs to target cancer cells and release under specific conditions while minimizing collateral damage to healthy cells.
The basic structure of an antibody-drug conjugate may be an "antibody-linker-pharmaceutically active molecule" or an "antibody-pharmaceutically active molecule" (no linker). For conjugates with linkers, the linkers allow the drug to exhibit an effect on the target cancer cells, e.g., after separation from the antibody (e.g., by enzyme-mediated hydrolysis) and after the drug reaches the target cells. The linker also serves a functional role by linking the antibody and the drug. The efficacy and toxicity of the antibody-drug conjugate thus depends in part on the stability of the linker, which therefore plays an important role in drug safety.
The linker of the antibody-drug conjugate may be broadly classified as non-cleavable or cleavable. Many non-cleavable linkers are attached to the antibody using a thioether that comprises the cysteine of the antibody. Lateral-conjugated drugs are often not separated from antibodies in vivo and reduced efficacy may also occur. In the case of the widely used thiol-maleimide method, the antibody-drug conjugate is unstable, which may result in the separation of the drug from the conjugate before or after it reaches the target cell. The cleavable linker may be, for example, by lysosomal enzymatic hydrolysis. The cleavable linker may comprise a disulfide bond, e.g., comprising a cysteine of an antibody. Disulfide linkers that allow dissociation via thiol exchange reactions rely to some extent on uptake of the antibody-drug conjugate into target cells and exposure of the disulfide to the cytosol as a reducing environment. However, because various types of thiols (e.g., albumin and glutathione) are present in the blood, the drug may separate from the antibody before reaching its target.
In order to replace chemically unstable linkers that are poorly stable in physiological extracellular conditions, such as hydrazone and disulfide-based linkers, there is a need for linkers that are stable under physiological extracellular conditions. Furthermore, there is a need for linkers with high plasma stability to improve therapeutic applicability, as the drug should only be released into the cell targeted by the protein to which the drug is attached, not outside the cell.
The prior literature has reported new methods for preparing antibody-drug conjugates, see for example U.S. patent publication No.2012/0308584. Further improvements are possible.
The CAR of the invention or the antibody of the invention may still be conjugated to a pharmaceutically active molecule, such as erlotinib, lymphokines, botulinum toxins, affinity ligands, radiolabels, immunomodulatory compounds, anti-cancer agents, ribozymes, and the like, on the antigen binding domain side.
Carrier body
In particular embodiments, cells (e.g., immune effector cells, such as T cells) are transduced with a retroviral vector (e.g., a lentiviral vector) encoding a CAR. For example, immune effector cells are transduced with a CAR-encoding vector comprising a humanized anti-BCMA antibody or antigen binding fragment that binds a BCMA polypeptide having a transmembrane domain and an intracellular signaling domain such that these transduced cells can elicit a CAR-mediated cytotoxic response.
Retroviruses are a common tool for gene delivery. In particular embodiments, the retrovirus is used to deliver a polynucleotide encoding a Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) to a cell. As used herein, the term "retrovirus" refers to an RNA virus that reverse transcribes its genomic RNA into linear double-stranded DNA copies, and subsequently covalently integrates its genomic DNA into the host genome. Once the virus is integrated into the host genome, it is referred to as a "provirus". Proviruses serve as templates for RNA polymerase II and direct the expression of RNA molecules that encode structural proteins and enzymes required for the production of new viral particles.
Exemplary retroviruses suitable for use in particular embodiments include, but are not limited to: moloney murine leukemia virus (M-MuLV), moloney murine sarcoma virus (MoMSV), harvey murine sarcoma virus (HaMuSV), murine mammary tumor virus (MuMTV), gibbon ape leukemia virus (GaLV), feline Leukemia Virus (FLV), murine Stem Cell Virus (MSCV) and Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV)), and lentiviruses.
As used herein, the term "lentivirus" refers to a group (or genus) comprising a plurality of retroviruses. Exemplary lentiviruses include, but are not limited to: HIV (human immunodeficiency virus; including HIV type 1 and HIV type 2); visna-maedivirus (VMV) virus; goat arthritis-encephalitis virus (CAEV); equine Infectious Anemia Virus (EIAV); feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV); bovine Immunodeficiency Virus (BIV); and Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV). In one embodiment, an HIV-based vector backbone (i.e., HIV cis-acting sequence elements) is preferred. In particular embodiments, the lentivirus is used to deliver a polynucleotide comprising a CAR to a cell.
The term "vector" is used herein to refer to a nucleic acid molecule capable of transferring or transporting another nucleic acid molecule. The transferred nucleic acid is typically linked to, e.g., inserted into, a vector nucleic acid molecule. The vector may include sequences that direct autonomous replication in the cell, or may include sequences sufficient to allow integration into the host cell DNA. Useful vectors include, for example, plasmids (e.g., DNA plasmids or RNA plasmids), transposons, cosmids, bacterial artificial chromosomes, and viral vectors. Useful viral vectors include, for example, replication defective retroviruses and lentiviruses.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the term "viral vector" is used broadly to refer to a nucleic acid molecule (e.g., a transfer plasmid) or viral particle that mediates nucleic acid transfer, including virus-derived nucleic acid elements that generally promote transfer or integration of a nucleic acid molecule into the genome of a cell. Viral particles typically include various viral components, and sometimes host cell components in addition to nucleic acids.
The term viral vector may refer to a virus or viral particle capable of transferring a nucleic acid into a cell, or the transferred nucleic acid itself. Viral vectors and transfer plasmids contain structural and/or functional genetic elements derived primarily from viruses. The term "retroviral vector" refers to a viral vector or plasmid containing structural and functional genetic elements or parts thereof derived primarily from a retrovirus. The term "lentivirus" refers to a genus of the retrovirus family that is capable of effectively infecting non-periodic and postmitotic cells; they can deliver significant amounts of genetic information into the DNA of host cells, so that they are one of the most efficient methods of gene delivery vectors.
Thus, in a preferred embodiment, the invention relates to a method of transfecting a cell with an expression vector encoding a CAR. For example, in some embodiments, the vector comprises additional sequences, such as sequences that promote expression of the CAR, e.g., a promoter, enhancer, poly-a signal, and/or one or more introns. In a preferred embodiment, the CAR coding sequence is flanked by transposon sequences, such that a transposase is present to allow integration of the coding sequence into the genome of the transfected cell.
In some embodiments, the genetically transformed cell is further transfected with a transposase that facilitates integration of the CAR coding sequence into the genome of the transfected cell. In some embodiments, the transposase is provided as a DNA expression vector. However, in a preferred embodiment, the transposase is provided as an expressible RNA or protein such that long term expression of the transposase does not occur in the transgenic cell. For example, in some embodiments, the transposase is provided as an mRNA (e.g., an mRNA comprising a cap and a poly-a tail). Any transposase system may be used in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. However, in some embodiments, the transposase is salmon-type Tel-like transposase (SB). In some embodiments, the transposase is an engineered enzyme with increased enzymatic activity. Some specific examples of transposases include, but are not limited to, SB10, SB11, or SB 100X transposases (see, e.g., mates et al, 2009,Nat Genet.41 (6): 753-61 or US9228180, which are incorporated herein by reference). For example, the method may comprise electroporating cells having mRNA encoding SB10, SB11, or SB 100X transposase.
Sequence variants:
sequence variants of the claimed nucleic acids, proteins, antibodies, antibody fragments and/or CARs (e.g., those defined by percent sequence identity) are also included within the scope of the invention, which maintain similar binding properties of the invention. These variants show alternative sequences but retain substantially the same binding properties such as target specificity, as the particular sequence provided is known to be a functional analogue or a functional analogue. Sequence identity relates to the percentage of identical nucleotides or amino acids when sequence alignments are performed.
The expression "sequence identity" as used herein refers to the degree of sequence identity on a nucleotide-nucleotide basis or on an amino acid-amino acid basis over a comparison window. Thus, the "percentage of sequence identity" can be calculated by: comparing the two optimally aligned sequences over a comparison window, determining the number of positions at which the same nucleobase (e.g., A, T, C, G, I) or the same amino acid residue (e.g., ala, pro, ser, thr, gly, val, leu, he, phe, tyr, trp, lys, arg, his, asp, glu, asn, gln, cys and Met) is present on the two sequences to produce a number of matched positions, dividing the number of matched positions by the total number of positions in the comparison window (i.e., window size), and multiplying the result by 100 to obtain a percentage of sequence identity. Included are nucleotides or polypeptides having at least about 50%,55%,60%,65%,70%,75%,80%,85%,90%,95%,96%,97%,98%,99% or 100% sequence identity to any of the reference sequences described herein, typically wherein the polypeptide variant retains at least one biological activity of the reference polypeptide.
One of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that, due to the degeneracy of the genetic code, there are many nucleotide sequences encoding a polypeptide or protein as described herein. Some of these polynucleotides have minimal homology or sequence identity to the nucleotide sequence of any native gene. Nonetheless, polynucleotides that vary due to differences in codon usage are specifically contemplated by the present invention. Deletions, substitutions and other changes which fall within the sequence identity are also encompassed by the invention.
Protein sequence modifications that may occur by substitution are also included within the scope of the invention. Substitutions as defined herein are modifications to the amino acid sequence of a protein whereby one or more amino acids are replaced by the same number of (different) amino acids, thereby producing a protein containing an amino acid sequence different from the primary protein. Substitutions may be made which preferably do not significantly alter the function of the protein. As with the addition, the substitution may be natural or artificial. It is well known in the art that amino acid substitutions can be made without significantly altering the function of the protein. This is especially true when the modification involves the replacement of a "conservative" amino acid with another amino acid having similar properties. Such "conservative" amino acids may be natural or synthetic amino acids that can be substituted due to size, charge, polarity, and conformation without significantly affecting the structure and function of the protein. In general, many amino acids can be substituted with conservative amino acids without adversely affecting the function of the protein.
Generally, non-polar amino acids Gly, ala, val, ile and Leu; non-polar aromatic amino acids Phe, trp and Tyr; neutral polar amino acids Ser, thr, cys, gln, asn and Met; positively charged amino acids Lys, arg and His; the negatively charged amino acids Asp and Glu represent a conserved amino acid group. This list is not exhaustive. For example, it is well known that Ala, gly, ser and sometimes Cys can be substituted for each other even though they belong to different groups.
Substitution variants remove at least one amino acid residue in the antibody molecule and insert a different residue at its position. For the occurrence of substitution mutagenesis, the most interesting positions include hypervariable regions, but FR alterations are also contemplated. If such substitutions result in a change in biological activity, a greater number of changes can be introduced and the product screened.
Gene-modified gene cells and immune cells
In particular embodiments, the invention contemplates cells genetically modified to express a CAR of the invention for use in treating a B cell-related disorder. As used herein, the term "genetically engineered" or "genetically modified" refers to the addition of additional genetic material in the form of DNA or RNA to the total genetic material in a cell. The terms "genetically modified cell", "modified cell" and "redirected cell" are used interchangeably. As used herein, the term "gene therapy" refers to the introduction of additional genetic material in the form of DNA or RNA into the total genetic material in a cell, which restores, modifies or modifies the expression of a gene, or is used to express a therapeutic polypeptide (e.g., CAR or ADC). In particular embodiments, the CARs of the invention are introduced into and expressed in immune effector cells in order to redirect their specificity for a target antigen of interest, such as a BCMA polypeptide.
An "immune cell" or "immune effector cell" is any cell of the immune system that has one or more effector functions (e.g., cytotoxic cell killing activity, cytokine secretion, induction of ADCC and/or CDC).
The immune effector cells of the invention may be autologous or non-autologous ("non-autologous", e.g., allogeneic, syngeneic or xenogeneic). As used herein, "autologous" refers to cells from the same subject, which is a preferred embodiment of the invention. As used herein, "allogeneic" refers to cells of the same species as the subject or patient but that are genetically different. As used herein, "syngeneic" refers to cells that are genetically identical but from different subjects. As used herein, "heterologous" refers to cells from a different species. In a preferred embodiment, the cells of the invention are autologous or allogeneic.
Exemplary immune effector cells for use with the CARs of the invention include T lymphocytes. The term "T cell" or "T lymphocyte" is art-recognized and is intended to include thymocytes, immature T lymphocytes, mature T lymphocytes, resting T lymphocytes, cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK cells) or activated T lymphocytes. Cytokine Induced Killer (CIK) cells are typically CD 3-and CD 56-positive non-Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC), which is a limiting Natural Killer (NK) like T lymphocyte. The T cells may be T helper cells (Th), such as T helper cell 1 (Th 1) or T helper cell 2 (Th 2). The T cells may be helper T cells or cytotoxic T cells or any other T cell subpopulation. Other exemplary T cell populations suitable for use in particular embodiments include naive T cells and memory T cells.
For example, T cells modified with the CAR of the invention described herein can recognize and kill tumor cells when reintroduced back into a patient after autologous cell transplantation. CIK cells may have enhanced cytotoxic activity compared to other T cells and thus represent a preferred embodiment of the immune cells of the invention.
As will be appreciated by the skilled artisan, other cells may also be used as immune effector cells having the CARs described herein. In particular, immune effector cells also include NK cells, NKT cells, neutrophils and macrophages. Immune effector cells also include progenitor cells of effector cells, wherein such progenitor cells can be induced to differentiate into immune effector cells in vivo or in vitro.
The invention provides methods of making immune effector cells expressing the CARs of the invention. In one embodiment, the method comprises transfecting or transducing immune effector cells isolated from an individual such that the immune effector cells express one or more CARs as described herein. In certain embodiments, the immune effector cells are isolated from the individual and genetically modified without further manipulation in vitro. These cells can then be reapplied directly to the individual. In a further embodiment, the immune effector cells are first activated and stimulated to proliferate in vitro, and then genetically modified to express the CAR. In this regard, immune effector cells may be cultured prior to and/or after genetic modification (i.e., transduction or transfection to express a CAR of the present invention).
In particular embodiments, the cell source is obtained from the subject prior to in vitro manipulation or genetic modification of the immune effector cells described herein. In particular embodiments, the CAR-modified immune effector cell comprises a T cell. T cells may be obtained from a number of sources including, but not limited to, peripheral blood mononuclear cells, bone marrow, lymph node tissue, cord blood, thymus tissue, tissue from an infected site, ascites, pleural effusion, spleen tissue, and tumors. In certain embodiments, T cells may be obtained from a blood unit collected from a subject using any technique or combination of techniques known to those skilled in the art, for example, by sedimentation and antibody-conjugated bead-based methods. In one embodiment, cells from the circulating blood of the individual are obtained by apheresis. The component blood products typically contain lymphocytes, including T cells, monocytes, granulocytes, B cells, other nucleated leukocytes, erythrocytes, and platelets. In one embodiment, cells collected by apheresis may be washed to remove plasma fractions and placed in a suitable buffer or medium for subsequent processing. The cells may be washed with PBS or another suitable solution that is free of calcium, magnesium and most divalent cations. As will be appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art, the washing step may be accomplished by methods known to those of ordinary skill in the art, such as by using a semi-automated flow-through centrifuge (e.g., cobe2991 cell processor, baxter CytoMate, etc.). After washing, the cells may be resuspended in various biocompatible buffers or other saline solutions with or without buffers. In certain embodiments, the undesired components of the apheresis sample may be removed in cells that are directly resuspended in culture medium.
In certain embodiments, T cells are isolated from Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) by lysing the erythrocytes and depleting the monocytes (e.g., by PERCOLLTM gradient centrifugation). Specific T cell subsets can be further isolated by positive or negative selection techniques. One method that may be used is cell sorting and/or selection by negative magnetic immunoadhesion or flow cytometry using a monoclonal antibody mixture directed against cell surface markers present on negatively selected cells.
PBMCs can be directly genetically modified to express CARs using the methods of the invention. In certain embodiments, T lymphocytes are further isolated after isolation of PBMCs, and in certain embodiments, cytotoxic and helper T lymphocytes may be sorted into subpopulations of naive, memory and effector T cells prior to or after genetic modification and/or expansion. Cd8+ cells can be obtained by using standard methods. In some embodiments, the cd8+ cells are further sorted into naive, central memory and effector cells by identifying cell surface antigens associated with each of these types of cd8+ cells.
Immune effector cells (e.g., T cells) may be genetically modified after isolation using known methods, or immune effector cells may be activated and expanded in vitro (or differentiated in the case of progenitor cells) prior to genetic modification. In particular embodiments, immune effector cells (e.g., T cells) are genetically modified (e.g., transduced with a viral vector comprising a nucleic acid encoding a CAR) with a chimeric antigen receptor of the invention, and then activated and expanded in vitro. In various embodiments, for example, U.S. patent No. 5,858,358 may be used; 6,905,681; 7,067,318; 7,232,566; 5,883,223; the methods described in 6,797,514 and 6,867,041 activate and expand T cells before or after genetic modification to express a CAR.
In another embodiment, for example, a mixture of one, two, three, four, five or more different expression vectors, each encoding a different chimeric antigen receptor protein (e.g., CAR variant sequence) as in the present invention, can be used to genetically modify a donor population of immune effector cells. The resulting modified immune effector cells form a mixed population of modified cells, wherein a portion of the modified cells express more than one different CAR protein.
In one embodiment, the invention provides a method of storing immune effector cells targeted to a BCMA protein expressing genetically modified murine, human, or humanized CAR protein comprising cryopreserving the immune effector cells such that the cells remain viable when thawed. A portion of the immune effector cells expressing the CAR protein may be cryopreserved by methods known in the art to provide a permanent source of such cells for future treatment of patients suffering from B cell related disorders. The cryopreserved transformed immune effector cells can be thawed, grown, and expanded, if desired, to obtain more such cells.
Composition and formulation
The compositions of the invention may comprise one or more polypeptides, polynucleotides, vectors comprising such polynucleotides, genetically modified immune effector cells, and the like, as contemplated herein. Compositions include, but are not limited to, pharmaceutical compositions. "pharmaceutical composition" refers to a composition formulated in a pharmaceutically or physiologically acceptable solution that is administered to a cell or animal alone or in combination with one or more other therapeutic modalities. It will also be appreciated that the compositions of the present invention may also be administered in combination with other agents, such as cytokines, growth factors, hormones, small molecules, chemotherapeutic agents, prodrugs, drugs, antibodies or other various pharmaceutically active agents, if desired. There is virtually no limit to the other components that may also be included in the composition, provided that the additional components do not adversely affect the ability of the composition to deliver the intended therapy.
The term "pharmaceutically acceptable" is used herein to refer to those compounds, materials, compositions, and/or dosage forms which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of human beings and animals without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other problem or complication, commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio.
As used herein, "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent or excipient" includes, but is not limited to, any adjuvant, carrier, excipient, glidant, sweetener, diluent, preservative, dye/colorant, flavoring agent, surfactant, wetting agent, dispersing agent, suspending agent, stabilizer, isotonic agent, solvent, surfactant or emulsifying agent that has been approved by the U.S. food and drug administration or by the chinese food and drug administration for use in humans or domestic animals. Exemplary pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include, but are not limited to, sugars such as lactose, glucose, and sucrose; starches, such as corn starch and potato starch; cellulose and its derivatives, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose, and cellulose acetate; tragacanth; malt; gelatin; talc; cocoa butter, wax, animal and vegetable fat, paraffin, organosilicon, bentonite, silicic acid and zinc oxide; oils such as peanut oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil and soybean oil; diols such as propylene glycol; polyols such as glycerol, sorbitol, mannitol and polyethylene glycol; esters, such as ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; agar; buffering agents such as magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; alginic acid; non-thermal raw water; isotonic saline; ringer's solution; ethanol; phosphate buffer; as well as any other compatible substances used in pharmaceutical formulations.
In a particular embodiment, the composition of the invention comprises an amount of CAR-expressing immune effector cells of the invention. As used herein, the term "amount" refers to an "effective amount" of a genetically modified therapeutic cell (e.g., T cell) that achieves a beneficial or desired prophylactic or therapeutic result, including a clinical result.
"prophylactically effective amount" refers to an amount of genetically modified therapeutic cells effective to achieve the desired prophylactic result. Typically, but not necessarily, the prophylactically effective amount is less than the therapeutically effective amount because the prophylactic dose is used in the subject prior to or at an early stage of the disease. The term prevention does not necessarily mean to completely prohibit or prevent a particular medical condition. The term prophylaxis also refers to reducing the risk of occurrence or worsening of symptoms of a certain medical condition.
The "therapeutically effective amount" of the genetically modified therapeutic cells can vary depending on various factors, such as the disease state, age, sex, and weight of the individual, as well as the ability of the stem and progenitor cells to elicit the desired response in the individual. A therapeutically effective amount is also an amount that has a therapeutic benefit that outweighs any toxic or detrimental effects of the virus or transduced therapeutic cells. The term "therapeutically effective amount" includes an amount effective to "treat" a subject (e.g., a patient). When the therapeutic amount is indicated, the precise amount of the composition of the present invention to be administered can be determined by a physician taking into account the age, weight, tumor size, the extent of infection or metastasis and individual differences in the condition of the patient (subject). It may be generally stated that a pharmaceutical composition comprising the T cells described herein may be at least 10 2 To 10 10 Individual cells/kg body weight, preferably 10 5 To 10 6 Individual cells/kg body weight (including all whole values within these ranges). The number of cells will depend on the end use of the composition and the type of cells contained therein. For the uses provided herein, the cells are typically 1L or less in volume, and may be 500mL or less, even 250mL or 100mL or less. Thus, the density of the desired cells is typically greater than 10 6 Individual cells/ml, typically greater than 10 7 Individual cells/ml, typically 10 8 Individual cells/ml or higher. The clinically relevant number of immune cells may be distributed as multiple infusions that accumulate at or above 10 5 、10 6 、10 7 、10 8 、10 9 、10 10 、10 11 Or 10 12 Individual cells. In some embodiments of the invention, a lower number of cells may be administered, particularly because all infused cells will be redirected to a particular target antigen. The CAR-expressing cell composition can be administered multiple times at doses within these ranges. For a patient to be treated, the cells may be allogeneic, syngeneic, allogeneic or autologous.
In general, compositions comprising cells activated and expanded as described herein are useful for treating and preventing diseases that occur in immunocompromised individuals. In particular, compositions comprising the CAR modified T cells of the invention are useful for treating B cell malignancies. The CAR modified T cells of the invention can be administered alone or as a pharmaceutical composition in combination with a carrier, diluent, excipient, and/or with other components (e.g., IL-2) or other cytokines or cell populations. In particular embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions of the invention comprise an amount of genetically modified T cells, together with one or more pharmaceutically or physiologically acceptable carriers, diluents or excipients.
