Description

Treat chronic rheumatoid arthritis with the IL-6 antagonist as effective ingredient
The present invention relates to the treatment of chronic rheumatoid arthritis, or contain the synovial cell growth inhibitor of interleukin-6 antagonist as effective ingredient.
Background technology
Chronic rheumatoid arthritis is a systematic chronic inflammatory disease, and this disease mainly is because connective tissue comprises synovial tissue (Melnyk et al., Arthritis Rheum.33:493-500,1990) due to intraarticular misgrowth.Can see tangible synovial cell's propagation in chronic rheumatoid arthritis patient's joint, form (pannus formation) as the multiple structure due to owing to synovial cell's misgrowth, the synovial cell is immersed cartilage and osseous tissue, vascularization in the synovial membrane, the infiltration of inflammatory cell such as lymphocyte and macrophage.Existing report is thought the pathogeny and heredity of chronic rheumatoid arthritis, and bacterial infection and various cytokine are relevant with somatomedin, but its definite pathogeny is not illustrated yet.
In recent years, in chronic rheumatoid arthritis patient's synovial membrane and synovial membrane liquid, some cytokines and somatomedin have been detected, comprising il-1 (IL-1) is arranged, interleukin-8 (IL-8), tumor necrosis factor (TNF α), transforming growth factor (TGF β), fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and platelet derivation somatomedin (PDGF), (Nouri et al., Clin.Exp.Immunol.55:295-302,1984; Thornton et al., Clin.Exp.Immunol.86:79-86,1991; Saxne, et al., Arthritis Rheum, 31:1041-1045,1988; Seitz et al., J.Clin.Invest.87:463-469,1991; Lafyatis et al., J.Immunol.143:1142-1148,1989; Melnyk et al., ArthritisRheum.33:493-500,1990).
Think that now IL-1, TNF α and PDGF are very strong synovial cell's somatomedin (Thornton et al., Clin.Exp.Immunol.86:79-86,1991; Lafyatis et al., JImmunol.143:1142-1148,1989; Gitter et al., Immunology 66:196-200,1989).Thinking in addition stimulates the generation (Ito el al., Arthmitis Rheum.35:1197-1201,1992) that can cause synovial cell's interleukin-6 (IL-6) by IL-1 and TNF.
IL-6 is a cytokine, and B-cell stimulating factor 2 or interferon beta2 are otherwise known as.So originally think that it is that (Nature 324,73-76 for Hirano, T.et al. for a kind of differentiation factor because IL-6 activates bone-marrow-derived lymphocyte; 1986), find that later on IL-6 is a multifunctional cytokine, it can influence the function (Akira, S.et al, Adv, in Immunology 54,1-78,1993) of various kinds of cell.The active performance of IL-6 needs two kinds of membrane molecules that function is different.One of them is IL-6 receptor (IL-6R), has divided sub-amount to be about 80KD, and it can combine with IL-6 specifically.
IL-6R mainly is existing with the bonded form of cell membrane, and it expresses and be penetrated into cell membrane on cell membrane, but also can have (SIL-6R) with dissolved IL-6R form, and it mainly is made up of extracellular part.Another protein is gp 130, and molecular weight is about 130KD, and this protein does not combine with part, and its function mainly is the conduction of mediation signal.IL-6 and IL-6R form composite I L-6/IL-6R, thereby this complex combines the biologic activity (Tega et al., J.Exp.Med.196:967,1987) that causes the IL-6 pair cell again with another memebrane protein gp 130.
IL-6 receptor (SIL-6R) (Houssiau et al., Arthritis Rheum.31:784-788,1988 of containing excessive interleukin-6 (IL-6) and solubility in existing report discovery chronic rheumatoid arthritis patient's serum and the synovial membrane liquid; Hirano et al., Eur.J.Immunol, 18:1797-1801,1988; Yoshioka et al. Japn.J.Rheumatol.inpress), and also obtains similar results (Takai et al., Arthritis Rheum.32:594-600,1989 in the experiment of rheumatoid arthritis animal model; Leisten et al., Clin.Immunol.Immunopathol.56:108-115,1990), these results show that 1L-6 is relevant with chronic rheumatoid arthritis.
Yet the patent publication No. of Japanese unexamined is that 4-89433 has disclosed the peptide class that can promote IL-6 to generate strongly and can effectively treat rheumatoid arthritis.
Higaki etc. then think can slow down chronic rheumatoid arthritis patient synovial cell's growth of IL-6, so IL-6 has the function (Clinical Immunology, 22:880-887,1990) that suppresses synovial cell's growth.Like this,, IL-6 and chronic rheumatoid arthritis have conflicting report about closing to fasten, and should relation not clear at present.
Recently, but people such as Wendling report is taken anti--IL-6 antibody respite clinical and biology of symptom to the chronic rheumatoid arthritis patient, simultaneously the level of IL-6 also raise (J.Rheumatol.20:259-262,1993) in the serum.
These reports have facilitation or inhibitory action are arranged chronic rheumatoid arthritis synovial cell's growth for IL-6, relevant this respect is without any data, so whether present not clear IL-6 has direct effect to the patient's of chronic rheumatoid arthritis synovial cell.
The present invention discloses
The steroidal class preparation such as the corticosteroid of anti-inflammatory have been used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, but owing to continue to use such medicine can cause as undesirable side effect such as skin lesion and inhibition adrenal cortex functioies, so seeking the less medicine of side effect always.
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of method that does not have the new treatment chronic rheumatoid arthritis of above-mentioned shortcoming.Further say to the invention provides a kind of pharmaceutical composition, said composition can suppress chronic rheumatoid arthritis synovial cell's abnormality proliferation, and its effective ingredient is the antagonist of interleukin-6.
The present inventor has carried out careful research with regard to IL-6 for rheumatoid arthritis synovial cell's effect, find in the research that IL-6 itself there is no facilitation to chronic rheumatoid arthritis synovial cell's growth, and another factor beyond the IL-6 be studies show that though IL-6 itself is to synovial cell's no facilitation of growing, but when the IL-6R of IL-6 and solubility exists simultaneously, can see its intensive promotion synovial cell proliferation function, and this synovial cell's proliferation function can be added into and suppresses active antagonist of IL-6 such as IL-6 antibody or IL-6R antibody and suppress.The present invention just is being based on above-mentioned discovery and is finishing.
In other words, the present invention relates to a kind of pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of chronic rheumatoid arthritis, said composition comprises with a kind of IL-6 antagonist as effective ingredient.More particularly the present invention relates to treat the pharmaceutical composition of chronic rheumatoid arthritis, the effective ingredient of said composition is IL-6 antagonist and the abnormality proliferation that can suppress the synovial cell.The invention still further relates to its effective ingredient is synovial cell's growth inhibitor of IL-6 antagonist.

Detailed description of the present invention
According to the present invention, the pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of chronic rheumatoid arthritis is after the pharmaceutical composition with the treatment chronic rheumatoid arthritis doses a patient with, can suppress the growth of synovial cell in the joint, and symptom be had the medicine of alleviation and therapeutic action.
According to the present invention, employed IL-6 antagonist can be any material, as long as its BA that can block the signal conduction of IL-6 and suppress IL-6. The IL-6 antagonist comprises IL-6 antibody, IL-6R antibody, gp 130 antibody, the IL-6 of modified, the partial peptide class of antisense IL-6R and IL-6 or IL-6R.
According to the present invention, as the antibody of antagonist, as IL-6 antibody, IL-6R antibody or gp 130 antibody can be any derivant or type (monoclonal, polyclone), but being the best by the prepared monoclonal antibody of mammal.These antibody can with IL-6, thereby IL-6R or gp 130 is in conjunction with suppressing combining between IL-6 and IL-6R or IL-6R and the gp 130, and the signal of blocking-up IL-6 conducts the biologic activity of inhibition IL-6.
There is no special restriction for the animal species that produces the monoclonal anti somatic cell, so long as mammal, human antibodies or the human in addition antibody that other mammal produced can use.Preferably prepare for the monoclonal antibody that mammal produced except the mankind, because above-mentioned monoclonal antibody prepares easily with rabbit or Mus.There is not special restriction for muroid, but preferably mice, rat and Cavia porcellus.
The example of IL-6 antibody includes MH 166 (Matsuda et al., Eur.J.Immunol.18:951-956,1988) and SK2 antibody (Sato et al., Journal for the21 ST General Meeting of the Japan Immunology Association, 21:116,1991).The example of IL-6R antibody has PM-1 antibody (Hirata et al., J.Immunol.143:2900-2906,1989), AUK12-20 antibody, AUK 64-7 antibody and AUK146-15 antibody (Intl.Unexamined Patent Application No.WO 92-19759).The example of gp 130 antibody has AM64 antibody (Japanese UnexaminedPatent Publication No.3-219894).
In above-mentioned antibody, be the best with PM-1 antibody.
Monoclonal antibody can prepare by the method for known technology.Promptly routinely immunization method with IL-6, IL-6R or gp 130 are as the sensitization antigen of immunity, then with the immunocyte of gained with conventional cell fusion method and known former generation's cell fusion, and the cell of the screening technique screening generation monoclonal antibody by routine is used for preparing antibody.
More particularly, available following method prepares monoclonal antibody.For example, if sensitization antigen behaviour IL-6 can use by people Nature 324:73 such as Hirano, 1986, the human IL-6 gene order of disclosure obtains antibody.Human IL-6 gene order is inserted in the carrier system that can openly express, and transform proper host cell with it, from host cell or the required IL-6 protein of culture supernatant purification, the IL-6 protein of using purification then is as sensitization antigen afterwards.
Relevant human IL-6R also can obtain IL-6R protein by the same quadrat method of above-mentioned human IL-6, promptly uses European Patent Application No. to prepare as the gene order that EP 325474 is introduced.Two types IL-6R is arranged, a kind ofly on cell membrane, express, and another kind is soluble form (SIL-6R) that it separates with cell membrane.SIL-6R mainly is made up of the cell foreign lands that are combined in the IL-6R on the cell membrane, and it and different being of IL-6R on being combined in cell membrane: it does not have membrane-spanning domain, or strides membrane structure and cell internal area.
Relevant human gp 130 can obtain gp 130 protein by the above-mentioned same method of human IL-6 for preparing, and the group sequence of promptly using European Patent Application No. EP 411946 to be introduced prepares.
Mammal with the sensitization antigen immune there is no special restriction, but preferably considers these cells and the blast cell compatibility that is used for merging when selecting, and uses mice usually, rat, Cavia porcellus and rabbit.
Can adopt the known method of delivering to finish with the sensitization antigen-immunized animal.For example, Chang Gui method comprises through the abdominal cavity or is subcutaneous to mammal injection sensitization antigen.Specifically, dilution of the PBS (phosphate buffered saline(PBS)) of handy equivalent or normal saline and suspendible sensitization antigen, and as need use with a certain amount of conventional adjuvant such as Freund's complete adjuvant, every then 4-21 days are to the mammal injection several times.When the sensitization antigen immune, also can use appropriate carriers.
After above-mentioned immunity, determine desired antibody rising concentration in the serum, take out the immunocyte of mammal then, be preferably splenocyte and do the cell fusion.
The blast cell that is used for merging with above-mentioned immunocyte can be the myeloma cell of mammal, can select known some kinds of cell strains for use, include P3 (P3x63Ag8.653) (J.Immunology 123:1548,1978), P3-U1 (Current Topics inMicrobiology and Immunology 81:1-7,1978), NS-1 (Eur.J.Immunol.6:511-519,1976), MPC-11 (Cell, 8:405-415,1976), SP2/o (Nature, 276:269-270,1978), Of (J.Immunol:Meth.35:1-21,1980), S194 (J.Exp.Med.148:313-323,1978), R210 (Nature, 277:131-133,1979).Can adopt known method that immunocyte and myeloma cell are merged, for example adopt people's such as Milstein method (Milstein et al., Methods Enzymol.73:3-46,1981).
More particularly, above-mentioned cell fusion can adopt the conventional nutrient medium that is added with cell fusion promoter to carry out.Merging promoter can be as Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) or Sendai virus (HVJ), strengthens fusion as needs and also can add as dimethyl sulfoxide to improve fusion efficiencies.
Ratio between immunocyte and the medullary cell preferably the quantity of immunocyte be the myeloma cell 1-10 doubly.The culture medium that is used for cell fusion can be as RPMI 1640 culture mediums or MEM culture medium, these culture mediums all are fit to myeloma cell's growth, also can use other culture medium commonly used, also can in culture medium, replenish serum solution such as calf serum (FCS).
Cell fusion is to carry out with following method, promptly adds heat in advance to 37 ℃ PEG solution in above-mentioned culture medium, then with the immunocyte and the abundant mixing of myeloma cell of some.As joining in the culture medium with about 1000 to 6000 the PEG of mean molecule quantity, concentration is 30 to 60% (w/v) usually, then with mixing with cells to form needed fused cell (hybridoma).Next step is that suitable culture medium is also centrifugal removes cell fusion agent etc. to remove supernatant by this step by repeatedly adding gradually, and these preparations are unfavorable to the growth of hybridoma.
Cultivate hybridoma to select suitable hybridoma by a normal culture medium of selecting, select culture medium such as HAT culture medium (containing hypoxanthine, aminopterin-induced syndrome and thymus pyrimidine).Hybridoma is cultivated the regular hour in the HAT culture medium, be generally several days, so that cell (non-fused cell) death beyond the hybridoma to several weeks.Next step is that cultured cells is carried out limited dilution, makes the hybridoma that produces required antibody be easy to carry out labelling and monoclonal.
The cultivation of can going down to posterity in common culture medium of the hybridoma of the generation monoclonal antibody that goes out by method for preparing also can be placed on long preservation in the liquid nitrogen.
In order to obtain the monoclonal antibody that hybridoma produces, can cultivate hybridoma according to the method for routine, reclaim culture supernatant then, perhaps also can adopt another kind of method to be about to hybridoma and inject in the suitable mammal, allow its growth, and then reclaim ascites.The former is used for obtaining highly purified antibody, and the latter then is used for preparing a large amount of antibody.
The monoclonal antibody that adopts the said method gained then can be by conventional purification process purification in addition.These methods include as salt folding, gel filtration, affinity chromatograph etc.
Monoclonal antibody by method for preparing can adopt common immunization method such as radioimmunoassay, RIA (RIA), enzyme connects immunoassay (EIA, ELISA), fluorescent antibody technique (immunofluorescence analysis) waits sensitivity and the highly purified antigen recognition ability that detects its height.
The monoclonal antibody of using among the present invention is not limited to the monoclonal antibody that hybridoma produces, and also has through the monoclonal antibody after manually modified, as in order to reduce the anti-people's of monoclonal antibody heteroantigen, and carries out manually modified to monoclonal antibody.For example employed chimeric antibody, its variable region is made up of mammal except that human such as the variable region of mice, its constant region then is a human antibodies, this chimeric antibody can prepare by a kind of method of known generation chimeric antibody, is specifically to adopt a kind of group recombinant technique.
Also can use the reconstruct human antibodies according to the present invention.These antibody can prepare by the regional complementary determinant zone of replacing human antibodies of the complementary determinant that uses mice or non-human mammal, and used technology is known conventional gene recombination method.According to the present invention, can adopt known a kind of method to obtain useful reconstruct human antibodies.This preferably reconstruct human antibodies is hPM-1 (seeing Intl.Unexamined Parent Aplication No.WO 92-19759).
Can change the nitrilo acid of the structural region (FR) of antibody variable region when needing, the complementary determinant of reconstruct human antibodies zone can form a suitable antibody combining site (Sato et al., Cancer Res.53:851-856,1993) like this.In addition, also can make up the gene-code of the antibody fragment that is used for conjugated antigen in order to achieve the above object, to suppress the activity of IL-6, for example Fab of antibody or Fv fragment, perhaps strand Fv (scFv), wherein the L of Fv and H chain can link up by a suitable concatenator, and it is expressed (for example see Bird etal., TIBTECH in appropriate host cell, 9:132-137,1991; Huston et al., Proc.Natl.Sci.USA, 85:5879-5883,1988).
According to the present invention, can use the existing modification IL-6 that reported, see Brakenhoff et al.J.Biol.chem.269:86-93,1994 or Savino et al., EMBO J.13:1357-1367,1994.
Can be by the IL-6 aminoacid sequence being introduced sudden change, as replacing, remove or insert aminoacid, make the IL-6 of used modified maintain and removed the function that the IL-6 signal transmits with the bonded activity of IL-6R.As long as possess above-mentioned characteristic, can prepare IL-6 by any animal species, but consider from the antigenicity aspect, preferably adopt the IL-6 for preparing from the human cell.
In addition, the secondary structure of IL-6 aminoacid sequence can be predicted by known molecular model method for designing, as WHATIF (Vriend et al., J.Mol.Graphics.8:52-56,1990), can estimate the influence that the aminoacid sequence of sudden change brings total like this.After having determined the aminoacid that will suitably suddenly change, can use a carrier of nucleotide sequence that contains the human IL-6 gene of encoding as template, and it be suddenlyd change, with the IL-6 gene code that obtains modifying with conventional PCR method (polymerase chain reaction,PCR).This template can be inserted in the suitable expression vector as needs, and in escherichia coli or cells of mamma animals, express, use the supernatant of any culture medium then, with the method for routine through separation and purification after, evaluate its with the bonded activity of IL-6R and in and the activity of IL-6 signal transmission.
As long as anti-peptide of the IL-6 that the present invention uses or IL-6R partial peptide can combine with IL-6R or IL-6 respectively, there is no the IL-6 signaling activity, just can be any sequence.IL-6 partial peptide and IL-6R partial peptide in U.S.Patent Pubication No.US 5210075, have been put down in writing.In Japanese Patent Publication No.5-300338, put down in writing the IL-6 antisense oligonucleotide.
Because IL-6 is relevant with chronic rheumatoid arthritis, so if pharmaceutical composition can be blocked the IL-6 signal conduction due to the IL-6 and suppress synovial cell's misgrowth, according to the present invention, its effective ingredient is that this pharmaceutical composition of IL-6 antagonist can be treated chronic rheumatoid arthritis.Example 1 has confirmed in external inhibitory action to rheumatoid arthritis people synovial cell growth.In example 2, taken the IL-6 receptor antibody with two Collagen Type VI mice immunized arthritis models, relevant result shows that (1) is that the basis judges to arthritic inhibitory action (Fig. 4) arranged with an arthritic index, (2) anti-two Collagen Type VI production of antibodies (Fig. 5) in the mouse blood of collagen immunization have been suppressed, (3) check the rear solid end joint of the mouse arthritis model take IL-6R antibody, showing has inhibitory action (chronic proliferative synovitis) (Fig. 6) to granulation tissue to the infiltration of cartilage and bone.
In above-mentioned (1) and (2), the result confirms that the IL-6 receptor antibody has inhibitory action to arthritis, and especially at the initial period of mouse arthritis morbidity, this inhibitory action is more obvious.(3) result proof has inhibitory action to granulation tissue to the infiltration of cartilage and bone, also supports this point (external inhibition to synovial cell's growth) by the result of gained in the example 1.
(1) and the experimental result of (2) show that the pharmaceutical composition that the present invention treats chronic rheumatoid arthritis has good starting stage therapeutic effect to rheumatoid arthritis.
The present invention is used for the treatment of the pharmaceutical composition of chronic rheumatoid arthritis preferably through non-stomach intestine medicine-feeding, for example through vein, and muscle, abdominal cavity or subcutaneous injection administration, but but also topical of whole body.Said composition also can the medical preparation test kit form with at least a medical carrier or diluent administration.
The present invention is used for the treatment of the pharmaceutical composition of chronic rheumatoid arthritis when taking to the people, and its dosage can be according to pathologic condition, and patient's age and administering mode are different, and selects different dosage according to above-mentioned situation.For example arrive in the such scope of patient 1000mg/, have 4 different maximal doses to select 1.Certainly, the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention that is used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis is not limited to these drug doses.
