Description

anti-CLDN 18.2 monoclonal antibody and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of medicines, in particular to an anti-CLDN 18.2 humanized monoclonal antibody and a preparation thereof.
Background
Tight Junctions (TJs) are multi-molecular complexes that regulate the permeability between epithelial tissue cells. In tight junction complexes, tight junction proteins (claudins) form tight channels between adjacent cells, regulating the flow of ions, solutes, etc.
CLDN18 is a major component of tight junctions in lung and stomach epithelial cells, CLDN18 has two subtypes, CLDN18.1 and CLDN18.2, CLDN18.1 is predominantly expressed in the lung and CLDN18.2 is predominantly expressed in the stomach.
The CLDN18.2 was found to be highly expressed in a variety of tumors such as primary and metastatic gastric Cancer, pancreatic Cancer, esophageal Cancer, lung Cancer, cholangiocarcinoma, ovarian Cancer, etc. (Sahin U, et al Clin Cancer Res,2008;14 (23): 7624-34). Because tumor cells have the characteristics of rapid proliferation, susceptibility to invasion and metastasis and the like, and lose a tight connection structure, the CLDN18.2 molecules on the surface of the tumor cells are easier to expose, and the CLDN18.2 becomes an ideal tumor treatment target (Hewitt KJ, et al BMC Cancer,2006; 6:186).
The chimeric antibody IMAB362 against CLDN18.2 developed by Ganymed Pharmaceuticals AG has entered phase III clinical studies. In phase II clinical studies on advanced or recurrent gastroesophageal Cancer, IMAB362 significantly prolonged the patient's PFS and OS in combination with first-line chemotherapeutic EOX (epirubicin, oxaliplatin, capecitabine) compared to chemotherapy alone, as a potential drug for the treatment of gastric Cancer, esophageal Cancer, and the like (Lordick F, et al, cancer,2021;24 (3): 721-730.).
Because of the potential of CLDN18.2 in tumor therapy, there is a great clinical need to develop highly active antibody drugs.
The high similarity of human CLDN18.1 to CLDN18.2 presents challenges for the development of CLDN18.2 specific antibodies. In addition, mouse CLDN18.2 is identical to human CLDN18.2 extracellular loop 1 sequence, and screening of antibodies specific for human CLDN18.2 in mice requires breaking immune tolerance in mice. Therefore, numerous technical difficulties need to be overcome in developing highly active drugs specifically recognizing human CLDN18.2 antibodies.
Thus, there remains a need in the art to develop a CLDN18.2 antibody and its use that has high affinity and high biological activity.

Detailed Description
The inventors have conducted extensive and intensive studies to unexpectedly obtain an anti-human CLDN18.2 antibody having excellent high affinity and high antitumor activity for the first time. Specifically, the inventors obtained a plurality of murine antibodies with high affinity for human CLDN18.2 for the first time through a number of screens. Based on the murine antibody, the invention further prepares chimeric antibodies and humanized antibodies, and performs mutation screening on the obtained humanized antibodies. The antibodies of the invention, particularly the mutated humanized antibodies, have similar affinity to chimeric antibodies, and are further developed into humanized monoclonal antibody medicaments for targeted therapy in the future. The antibody of the invention can effectively combine with human CLDN18.2, inhibit proliferation of various tumor cells, inhibit growth of tumor by nude mice endosome, and has excellent anti-tumor activity. The present invention has been completed on the basis of this finding.
Specifically, the inventor alternatively immunizes mice by constructing various forms of hCDN18.2 DNA as antigens, and carrying out booster immunization by using a cell strain for recombining and expressing hCDN18.2, and obtaining the mouse monoclonal antibodies mab429, mab623, mab624 and mab782 which specifically recognize hCDN18.2 through a hybridoma fusion technology.
The chimeric antibody ch782 specifically binds to hCDN18.2, can recognize clDN18.2 molecules on the cell surface of tumor cells NUGC4, and has obviously higher affinity with clDN18.2 than the reference antibody Ref.ch175.ch782 has ADCC, CDC and proliferation inhibitory activity against hcldn18.2 cells.
The chimeric antibody ch782 was humanized to obtain 4 humanized antibody combinations hu7825H 1.1L1, hu7825.2L 1, hu7825.1L 2, hu7825.2L 2, and the 4 humanized antibodies specifically recognized hCDN18.2 with comparable affinity to the ch 782.
The humanized antibody heavy chain hu782H1.1 is subjected to S60A site mutation to remove potential glycosylation sites, and V101A mutation is performed to enhance the expression level, so that the humanized antibody heavy chain hu782H 1.2-V101A is obtained. The S60A, V A site is defined according to the Kabat numbering convention.
The humanized antibodies hu782 (H1.2L2 combination), hu782-HV (H1.2-V101A L combination) have significantly better ADCC activity against tumor cells than the reference antibody ref.ch175.
And carrying out S239D/I332E mutation on amino acids 239 and 332 of a heavy chain constant region of the humanized antibody hu782 to obtain the humanized antibody hu782-DE. S239D, I E is defined by the EU numbering system.
The humanized antibody hu782-DE has significantly better ADCC activity against tumor cell NUGC4 than the reference antibody Ref.ch175, which has an EC50 value 24 times lower than that of Ref.ch175.
Humanized antibodies hu782, hu782-HV have CDC killing activity against hcldn18.2 target cells.
Humanized antibodies hu782, hu782-HV have proliferation inhibitory activity on hcldn18.2 target cells, which has a dose-dependent proliferation inhibitory activity significantly better than the reference antibody ref.ch175.
Epitope analysis found that the key sites recognized by humanized antibody hu782 included the E56, G48 sites of hcldn18.2 molecule, while the key site recognized by reference antibody ref.ch175 included the a42S, N45A, E56A, G site, confirming that there was a certain difference between the two antibody binding epitopes.
In a nude mouse tumor transplantation model, three antibodies of hu782, hu782-HV and hu782-DE can obviously transplant tumor growth, and the tumor growth inhibition effect of the antibodies is superior to that of a reference antibody Ref. Ch175, especially two antibodies of hu782 and hu 782-DE. The tumor occurrence of mice in both the hu782 and hu782-DE antibody treatment groups completely regressed, the tumor inhibition rates of hu782-HV, hu782 and hu782-DE were 34.68%, 62.88% and 65.05%, and the reference antibody Ref.ch175 was 15.5%.
Terminology
In order that the present disclosure may be more readily understood, certain terms are first defined. As used in this application, each of the following terms shall have the meanings given below, unless expressly specified otherwise herein. Other definitions are set forth throughout the application.
The term "about" may refer to a value or composition that is within an acceptable error of a particular value or composition as determined by one of ordinary skill in the art, which will depend in part on how the value or composition is measured or measured. For example, as used herein, the expression "about 100" includes 99 and 101 and all values therebetween (e.g., 99.1, 99.2, 99.3, 99.4, etc.).
As used herein, the term "comprising" or "including" can be open, semi-closed, and closed. In other words, the term also includes "consisting essentially of …," or "consisting of ….
Sequence identity is determined by comparing two aligned sequences along a predetermined comparison window (which may be 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95% or 100% of the length of a reference nucleotide sequence or protein) and determining the number of positions at which identical residues occur. Typically, this is expressed as a percentage. The measurement of sequence identity of nucleotide sequences is a well known method to those skilled in the art.
As used herein, the terms "heavy chain variable region" and "V H "interchangeably used.
As used herein, the terms "light chain variable region" and "V L "interchangeably used.
As used herein, the term "variable region" is used interchangeably with "complementarity determining region (complementarity determining region, CDR)".
In the present invention, the terms "antibody of the invention", "protein of the invention", or "polypeptide of the invention" are used interchangeably and refer to an antibody that specifically binds CLDN18.2, such as a protein or polypeptide having a heavy chain variable region (e.g., the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, 11, 12, or 13) and/or a light chain variable region (e.g., the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:6, 14, or 15). They may or may not contain an initiating methionine.
Another preferred antibody of the invention is an antibody that specifically binds to CLDN18.2 corresponding to 624, e.g.a protein or polypeptide having a heavy chain variable region (e.g.the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 23) and/or a light chain variable region (e.g.the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 24).
CLDN18.2
The total length of the human CLDN18 contains 261 amino acids, is a four-time transmembrane protein, has four transmembrane hydrophobic regions, has two annular structures outside the cell, and is formed by encircling a transmembrane region 1 and a transmembrane region 2; the ring 2 is surrounded by a transmembrane region 3 and a transmembrane region 4. The N-terminal amino acid composition of human CLDN18.1 and CLDN18.2, the amino acid composition of transmembrane region 1 and extracellular loop 1 are completely identical, and the sequence similarity reaches 92%.
Antibodies to
As used herein, the term "antibody" refers to an immunoglobulin that is a tetrapeptide chain structure formed from two identical heavy chains and two identical light chains joined by an interchain disulfide bond.
Existing antibody numbering schemes include:
the Kabat protocol (Kabat et al, 1991) is based on the position of regions of high sequence variation between sequences of the same domain type, with variable domains of antibody heavy (VH) and light (V.lambda.and V.kappa.) being numbered differently.
The scheme of Chothia (Al-Lazikani, 1997) is identical to that of Kabat, but the positions of the inserts of annotations around the first VH Complementarity Determining Region (CDR) are corrected to correspond to structural loops. Likewise, the enhanced Chothia program (abhinannan and Martin, 2008) makes further structural modifications to the insertion site.
3. In contrast to these Kabat-like regimens, IMGT (Lefranc, 2003) and AHo (honeygger and plockthun, 2001) both define unique regimens of antibodies and T Cell Receptor (TCR) (vα and vβ) variable domains. Thus, equivalent residue positions can be easily compared between domain types. IMGT and AHo differ in the number of positions they annotate (128 and 149, respectively) and in the positions they consider the indels to occur.
The immunoglobulin heavy chain constant region differs in amino acid composition and sequence, and thus, in antigenicity. Accordingly, immunoglobulins can be assigned to five classes, or isotypes of immunoglobulins, igM, igD, igG, igA and IgE, with their respective heavy chains being the μ, δ, γ, α, and epsilon chains, respectively. The Ig of the same class can be further classified into different subclasses according to the amino acid composition of the heavier chain region and the number and position of disulfide bonds of the heavy chain, such as IgG can be classified into IgG1, igG2, igG3 and IgG4. Light chains are classified as either kappa chains or lambda chains depending on the constant region. Each of the five classes of Ig may have either a kappa chain or a lambda chain. Subunit structures and three-dimensional configurations of different classes of immunoglobulins are well known to those skilled in the art.
The antibody light chains of the present invention may further comprise a light chain constant region comprising a kappa, lambda chain of human or murine origin or variants thereof.
In the present invention, the antibody heavy chain of the present invention may further comprise a heavy chain constant region comprising IgG1, igG2, igG3, igG4 or variants thereof of human or murine origin. The sequences of the heavy and light chains of antibodies, near the N-terminus, vary widely, being the variable region (Fv region); the remaining amino acid sequence near the C-terminus is relatively stable and is a constant region. The variable region includes 3 hypervariable regions (HVRs) and 4 Framework Regions (FR) that are relatively conserved in sequence. The 3 hypervariable regions determine the specificity of the antibody, also known as Complementarity Determining Regions (CDRs). Each of the Light Chain Variable Region (LCVR) and Heavy Chain Variable Region (HCVR) consists of 3 CDR regions and 4 FR regions, arranged in sequence from amino terminus to finished base terminus in the order FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3 and FR4. The 3 CDR regions of the light chain refer to LCDR1, LCDR2 and LCDR3; the 3 CDR regions of the heavy chain are referred to as HCDR1, HCDR2 and HCDR3. In example 13 of the present invention, 6 CDRs of the ch782 antibody were divided in combination with the kabat and Chothia methods.
The term "murine antibody" is herein a monoclonal antibody against CLDN18.2 prepared according to the knowledge and skill in the art. The preparation is performed by injecting the test subjects with CLDN18.2 antigen and then isolating hybridomas expressing antibodies having the desired sequence or functional properties. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the murine CLDN18.2 antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof may further comprise a murine kappa, lambda chain or variant light chain constant region or further comprise a murine IgG1, igG2, igG3 or variant heavy chain constant region.
The term "chimeric antibody (chimeric antibody)" refers to an antibody in which a variable region of a murine antibody is fused to a constant region of a human antibody, and which can reduce an immune response induced by the murine antibody.
The term "humanized antibody (humanized antibody)", also known as CDR-grafted antibody (CDR-grafted antibody), refers to an antibody produced by grafting murine CDR sequences into the framework of human antibody variable regions, i.e., the framework sequences of different types of human germline antibodies. Humanized antibodies can overcome the heterologous response induced by chimeric antibodies that carry large amounts of murine protein components. Such framework sequences may be obtained from public DNA databases including germline antibody gene sequences or published references. To avoid a decrease in immunogenicity while at the same time causing a decrease in activity, the human antibody variable region framework sequences may be subjected to minimal reverse or back-mutations to maintain activity.
The term "antigen-binding fragment of an antibody" (or simply "antibody fragment") refers to one or more fragments of an antibody that retain the ability to specifically bind an antigen (e.g., CLDN 18.2). Fragments of full length antibodies have been shown to be useful for performing the antigen binding function of antibodies. Examples of binding fragments encompassed within the term "antigen-binding fragment of an antibody" include
(i) A Fab fragment, a monovalent fragment consisting of VL, VH, CL and CH1 domains;
(ii)F(ab') 2 a fragment comprising a bivalent fragment of two Fab fragments linked by a disulfide bridge on the longer chain region;
(iii) Fd fragment consisting of VH and CH1 domains;
(iv) Fv fragments consisting of the VH and VL domains of a single arm of an antibody.
Fv antibodies contain antibody heavy chain variable regions, light chain variable regions, but no constant regions, and have a minimal antibody fragment of the entire antigen binding site. Generally, fv antibodies also comprise a polypeptide linker between the VH and VL domains, and are capable of forming the structures required for antigen binding.
The term "CDR" refers to one of the 6 hypervariable regions within the variable domain of an antibody that contribute primarily to antigen binding. One of the most common definitions of the 6 CDRs is provided by Kabat E.A et al, (1991) Sequences of proteins of immunological interface.
The term "epitope" or "antigenic determinant" refers to a site on an antigen to which an immunoglobulin or antibody specifically binds (e.g., a specific site on a CLDN18.2 molecule). Epitopes generally comprise at least 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15 contiguous or non-contiguous amino acids in a unique spatial conformation.
The terms "specific binding," "selective binding," "selectively binding," and "specifically binding" refer to binding of an antibody to an epitope on a predetermined antigen. Typically, the antibody is present at about less than 10 -7 M, e.g. less than about 10 -8 M、10 -9 M or lO -10 Affinity (KD) binding of M or less.
The term "competitive binding" refers to an antibody that recognizes the same epitope (also referred to as an epitope) or a portion of the same epitope on the extracellular region of CLDN18.2 as the monoclonal antibody of the invention and binds to the antigen. An antibody that binds to the same epitope as the monoclonal antibody of the invention refers to an antibody that recognizes and binds to the amino acid sequence of CLDN18.2 recognized by the monoclonal antibody of the invention.
Terminology"KD" or "Kd" refers to the dissociation equilibrium constant of a particular antibody-antigen interaction. Typically, the antibodies of the invention are administered in amounts of less than about 10 -7 M, e.g. less than about 10 -8 M、10 -9 M or 10 -10 The dissociation equilibrium constant (KD) of M or less binds CLDN18.2.
As used herein, the term "epitope" refers to a discrete, three-dimensional spatial site on an antigen that is recognized by an antibody or antigen-binding fragment of the invention.
The invention includes not only whole antibodies but also fragments of antibodies having immunological activity or fusion proteins of antibodies with other sequences. Thus, the invention also includes fragments, derivatives and analogues of said antibodies.
In the present invention, antibodies include murine, chimeric, humanized or fully human antibodies prepared by techniques well known to those skilled in the art. Recombinant antibodies, such as chimeric and humanized monoclonal antibodies, including human and non-human portions, can be prepared using DNA recombination techniques well known in the art.
As used herein, the term "monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody secreted from a clone derived from a single cell source. Monoclonal antibodies are highly specific, being directed against a single epitope. The cells may be eukaryotic, prokaryotic or phage clonal cell lines.
In the present invention, antibodies may be monospecific, bispecific, trispecific, or more multispecific.
In the present invention, the antibodies of the invention also include conservative variants thereof, meaning that up to 10, preferably up to 8, more preferably up to 5, and most preferably up to 3 amino acids are replaced by amino acids of similar or similar nature to the amino acid sequence of the antibodies of the invention to form a polypeptide. These conservatively mutated polypeptides are preferably produced by amino acid substitution according to the table below.

Humanized antibody against CLDN18.2
The present invention provides humanized antibodies against CLDN18.2 (hereinafter referred to as CLDN18.2 antibodies). In particular, the present invention provides a high specificity and high affinity humanized antibody against CLDN18.2 comprising a heavy chain variable region (VH) amino acid sequence and a light chain comprising a light chain variable region (VL) amino acid sequence.
Jones et al first transplanted murine monoclonal antibody heavy chain CDRs into human antibody heavy chain framework regions, then assembled the murine monoclonal antibody heavy chain into complete antibodies with murine monoclonal antibody light chains and maintained affinity similar to the original murine monoclonal antibodies, providing ideas for the development of antibody humanization technology. Queen et al in 1989 successfully constructed anti-CD 25 humanized antibodies by CDR grafting using human antibody framework regions that were humanized with murine amino acids retained at some sites in the framework regions to maintain affinity. Presta et al, 1992, reported a successful construction of humanization by CDR grafting using a human antibody subgroup consensus sequence (consensus sequence) as a template. The humanization of antibodies by the method of surface remodeling (resurfacing) was reported by Pedersen et al 1994. Hsiao et al, 1994, reported a method of humanizing CDR grafting with the framework region of the Germline sequence of a human antibody. The humanization method was successfully constructed by Jeppers et al, 1994, using phage library (shuffling library).
There are generally two choices of human framework regions in antibody humanization, one is the known mature antibody and one is the human Germline sequence. Known mature antibody framework regions typically contain somatic mutation sites that can be potentially immunogenic. Compared with the mature antibody, the human Germline sequence framework region has lower immunogenicity in theory, more flexible structure, strong plasticity and easy acceptance of different CDR regions. The human antibody Germline gene has certain bias in use frequency in human body, and the humanized antibody with Germline skeleton region with high use frequency has the advantages of low immunogenicity, high expression level, stable structure, etc.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the framework region of the preferred sequence is selected for humanization by a number of experimental screens, instead of selecting the Germline sequence with the highest similarity to the murine antibody, which is compatible with both similarity and frequency of human use. The humanized antibody constructed by adopting the method has more stable structure, high expression, low immunogenicity and higher patentability.
In another preferred embodiment, the heavy chain constant region and/or the light chain constant region may be a humanized heavy chain constant region or a light chain constant region. More preferably, the humanized heavy chain constant region or light chain constant region is a human IgG1, igG2, or the like heavy chain constant region or a human kappa, lambda light chain constant region.
In another preferred embodiment, the sequence formed by adding, deleting, modifying and/or substituting at least one amino acid sequence is preferably an amino acid sequence having a homology of at least 80%, preferably at least 85%, more preferably at least 90%, most preferably at least 95%.
The antibodies of the invention may be double-or single-chain antibodies, and may preferably be fully humanized antibodies.
The antibody derivatives of the invention may be single chain antibodies, and/or antibody fragments, such as: fab, fab ', (Fab') 2, or other antibody derivatives known in the art, and the like, as well as IgA, igD, igE, igG and any one or more of IgM antibodies or antibodies of other subtypes.
The antibodies of the invention may be humanized antibodies, CDR grafted and/or modified antibodies targeting CLDN 18.2.
In the above-described aspect of the present invention, the number of amino acids added, deleted, modified and/or substituted is preferably not more than 40%, more preferably not more than 35%, more preferably 1 to 33%, more preferably 5 to 30%, more preferably 10 to 25%, more preferably 15 to 20% of the total amino acids in the original amino acid sequence.
Preparation of antibodies
Any method suitable for producing monoclonal antibodies can be used to produce the CLDN18.2 antibodies of the invention. For example, animals may be immunized with the conjugated or naturally occurring CLDN18.2 protein or fragments thereof. Suitable immunization methods may be used, including adjuvants, immunostimulants, repeated booster immunizations, and one or more routes may be used.
Any suitable form of CLDN18.2 can be used as an immunogen (antigen) for generating non-human antibodies specific for CLDN18.2 and screening the antibodies for biological activity. The immunogens may be used alone or in combination with one or more immunogenicity enhancing agents known in the art. The immunogen may be purified from a natural source or produced in genetically modified cells. The DNA encoding the immunogen may be genomic or non-genomic (e.g., cDNA) in origin. DNA encoding the immunogen may be expressed using suitable genetic vectors including, but not limited to, adenoviral vectors, baculoviral vectors, plasmids, and non-viral vectors.
The humanized antibody may be selected from any class of immunoglobulins, including IgM, igD, igG, igA and IgE. Also, any type of light chain may be used in the compounds and methods herein. In particular, kappa, lambda chains or variants thereof are useful in the compounds and methods of the present invention.
The sequence of the DNA molecule of the antibody or fragment thereof of the present invention can be obtained by a conventional technique such as amplification by PCR or screening of a genomic library. In addition, the coding sequences for the light and heavy chains may be fused together to form a single chain antibody.
Once the relevant sequences are obtained, recombinant methods can be used to obtain the relevant sequences in large quantities. This is usually done by cloning it into a vector, transferring it into a cell, and isolating the relevant sequence from the propagated host cell by conventional methods.
Furthermore, the sequences concerned, in particular fragments of short length, can also be synthesized by artificial synthesis. In general, fragments of very long sequences are obtained by first synthesizing a plurality of small fragments and then ligating them. The DNA sequence can then be introduced into a variety of existing DNA molecules (or vectors, for example) and cells known in the art.
The term "nucleic acid molecule" refers to both DNA molecules and RNA molecules. The nucleic acid molecule may be single-stranded or double-stranded, but is preferably double-stranded DNA. A nucleic acid is "operably linked" when it is placed into a functional relationship with another nucleic acid sequence. For example, a promoter or enhancer is operably linked to a coding sequence if it affects the transcription of the coding sequence.
The term "vector" refers to a nucleic acid molecule capable of transporting another nucleic acid to which it has been linked. In one embodiment, the vector is a "plasmid," which refers to a circular double stranded DNA loop into which additional DNA segments may be ligated.
The invention also relates to vectors comprising the above-described suitable DNA sequences and suitable promoter or control sequences. These vectors may be used to transform an appropriate host cell to enable expression of the protein.
The term "host cell" refers to a cell into which an expression vector has been introduced. The host cell may be a prokaryotic cell, such as a bacterial cell; or lower eukaryotic cells, such as yeast cells; or higher eukaryotic cells, such as plant or animal cells (e.g., mammalian cells).
The steps described herein for transforming a host cell with recombinant DNA may be performed using techniques well known in the art. The transformant obtained can be cultured by a conventional method, and the transformant expresses the polypeptide encoded by the gene of the present invention. Depending on the host cell used, it is cultivated in conventional medium under suitable conditions.
Typically, the transformed host cell is cultured under conditions suitable for expression of the antibodies of the invention. The antibodies of the invention are then purified by conventional immunoglobulin purification procedures, such as protein A-Sepharose, hydroxylapatite chromatography, gel electrophoresis, dialysis, ion exchange chromatography, hydrophobic chromatography, molecular sieve chromatography or affinity chromatography, using conventional separation and purification means well known to those skilled in the art.
The resulting monoclonal antibodies can be identified by conventional means. For example, the binding specificity of a monoclonal antibody can be determined using immunoprecipitation or in vitro binding assays, such as Radioimmunoassays (RIA) or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA).
Antibody formulations
Antibodies have different stability in different preparation buffers, and are characterized by changes in charge heterogeneity, degradation and polymerization of antibody molecules, and the like, and the changes in quality properties are related to physicochemical properties of the antibodies, so that in the process of developing antibody drugs, preparation buffers suitable for the antibodies need to be screened according to the physicochemical properties of different antibodies. The conventional antibody preparation buffer system comprises phosphate buffer, citric acid buffer, histidine buffer and the like, and can be added with different concentrations of salt ions or excipients such as sorbitol, trehalose, sucrose and the like according to the properties of the antibody, and a proper amount of surfactant such as tween and the like so as to maintain the stability of the antibody.

The invention also provides a composition. In a preferred embodiment, the composition is a pharmaceutical composition comprising an antibody or active fragment thereof or fusion protein thereof or ADC thereof or corresponding CAR-T cell as described above, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Typically, these materials are formulated in a nontoxic, inert and pharmaceutically acceptable aqueous carrier medium, wherein the pH is typically about 5 to 8, preferably about 6 to 8, although the pH may vary depending on the nature of the material being formulated and the condition being treated. The formulated pharmaceutical compositions may be administered by conventional routes including, but not limited to: intratumoral, intraperitoneal, intravenous, or topical administration.
The antibodies of the invention may also be used for cellular therapy where the nucleotide sequence is expressed intracellularly, e.g., for chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy (CAR-T), etc.
The pharmaceutical composition of the invention can be directly used for binding to CLDN18.2 protein molecules, and thus can be used for preventing and treating diseases related to CLDN 18.2. In addition, other therapeutic agents may also be used simultaneously.
The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention contain a safe and effective amount (e.g., 0.001-99wt%, preferably 0.01-90wt%, more preferably 0.1-80 wt%) of the monoclonal antibodies (or conjugates thereof) of the invention as described above, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or excipient. Such vectors include (but are not limited to): saline, buffer, glucose, water, glycerol, ethanol, and combinations thereof. The pharmaceutical formulation should be compatible with the mode of administration. The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention may be formulated as injectables, e.g. by conventional means using physiological saline or aqueous solutions containing glucose and other adjuvants. The pharmaceutical compositions, such as injections, solutions are preferably manufactured under sterile conditions. The amount of active ingredient administered is a therapeutically effective amount, for example, from about 1 microgram per kilogram of body weight to about 5 milligrams per kilogram of body weight per day. In addition, the polypeptides of the invention may also be used with other therapeutic agents.

Materials and methods
1. Reference antibody
The reference antibody used in the experiments of the present invention was derived from the 175D10 cloned antibody sequence of patent US 8168427. The 175D10 antibody is also known as IMAB362. The variable region sequence of 175D10 antibody was synthesized through complete gene synthesis, and constructed onto eukaryotic expression vectors containing constant regions of IgG1 chimeric antibody, and expression purification was performed. The reference antibody thus prepared is abbreviated herein as Ref.ch175.
The reference antibody ref.ch175 (or IMAB 362) specifically recognizes the extracellular loop 1 portion of CLDN18.2, does not bind to CLDN18.1, and kills tumor cells primarily through antibody-dependent cell-dependent cellular-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (complement dependent cytotoxicity, CDC).
Example 1: construction of cell lines stably expressing CLDN18.1 or CLDN18.2
In this example, cell lines stably expressing human CLDN18.1, human CLDN18.2, mouse CLDN18.1, mouse CLDN18.2 were constructed. The method comprises the following steps:
full-length gene fragments encoding human CLDN18.1 (NP-057453.1) and human CLDN18.2 (NP-001002026.1) were cloned into pEGFP-N2 eukaryotic expression vectors (available from Clontech) by Xhol+BamHI cleavage, designated pEGFP-N2-hCDN 18.1 and pEGFP-N2-hCDN 18.2, respectively.
HEK293 cells (from the national academy of sciences cell Bank, GNHu 43) were used at 4X 10 5 The cells were inoculated into 6-well plates, and on the next day, pEGFP-N2-hcldn18.1 and pEGFP-N2-hcldn18.2 were transfected into HEK293 cells respectively using LipoMax, and after 24 hours of transfection, the cells were passaged at a ratio of 1:10, and after cell attachment, were subjected to pressure screening at a final concentration of 300 μg/ml by adding G418 (purchased from Gibco), and subcloned to obtain HEK293 cells stably expressing human CLDN18.1 and human CLDN18.2 membrane proteins, designated HEK293-hcldn18.1 and HEK293-hcldn18.2, respectively.
Full-length gene fragments encoding mouse CLDN18.1 (NP-062789.1) and mouse CLDN18.2 (NP-001181850.1) were cloned into pcDNA3.1-P2A-EGFP eukaryotic expression vectors (available from Nanjing Style Corp) by KpnI+XbaI cleavage, designated pcDNA3.1-mCLDN18.1 and pcDNA3.1-mCLDN18.1, respectively. HEK293 cells were transfected by the same method as above to obtain cells stably expressing mouse CLDN18.1 and CLDN18.2 membrane proteins, designated HEK293-mCLDN18.1 and HEK293-mCLDN18.2, respectively.

Example 2: immunogen preparation
Since human CLDN18.2 extracellular loop 1 (CLDN 18.2 ECL 1) is identical to the amino acid sequence of mouse CLDN18.2 ECL1, it is more difficult to obtain antibodies that bind to CLDN18.2 ECL 1. Meanwhile, considering that the CLDN18.2 molecular conformation on the surface of tumor cells may be different from that on the surface of normal tissue cells, in this embodiment, various forms of DNA plasmids are designed as antigens to break through immune tolerance, so as to obtain antibodies recognizing tumor cells with high affinity.
The nucleotides encoding the full length amino acids of human CLDN18.2ECL1 and CLDN18.2 were cloned in tandem with the tetanus toxoid P2 epitopes TT830-844, P30 epitopes TT947-967, respectively, into eukaryotic expression vector PTT5 (available from Invitrogen company) designated PTT5-TT-hcldn18.2, PTT5-TT-hcldn18.2-ECL1, respectively.
The invention fuses CLDN18.2ECL1 to the Fc-C end of human IgG1, named hFc-CLDN18.2-ECL1.

In the embodiment, a reporter gene method is adopted to detect the ADCC biological activity of the antibody, engineering Jurkat cells which stably express the FcgammaRIIIa receptor are selected as effector cells, a Bio-GloTM Luciferase Assay System kit is selected to detect the chemiluminescent signal of luciferase, and the function of the Fc effector of the antibody is quantitatively detected by measuring the activation of an NFAT signal path.
HEK 293-hCDN18.2 cells constructed in example 1 were digested and then subjected to 2.5X10-th 5 Diluting with/ml, spreading 100 μl/well into a white opaque cell culture plate, standing at 37deg.C for 24 hr, removing supernatant, and adding 25 μl/well of analysis medium containing 0.1% BSA; dilution of Jurkat/NFAT-luc+FcgammaRIIIa cells to 6X 10 6 Mu.l of Jurkat/NFAT-luc+FcgammaRIIIa cell suspension was added to each well, and then 3-fold serial dilutions were made starting at a final concentration of 6.
