Description

IL-17RA fusion protein, pharmaceutical composition, injection and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of medicines, and particularly relates to an IL-17RA fusion protein, a pharmaceutical composition, an injection and application thereof.
Background
Psoriasis is commonly called as psoriasis, is a chronic autoimmune skin disease easy to relapse, generally causes great damage to the physiology and the psychology of patients, is regarded as one of the global major health problems by WHO, has the morbidity accounting for 0.1 to 3 percent of the world population, and has 1.25 hundred million psoriasis patients in the world at present. The total disease rate in China is 0.47%, nearly 650 thousands of patients are clinically registered at present, plaque psoriasis is one of the most common five forms of the disease, and accounts for 80% -90% of all cases, wherein the number of patients with moderate-severe disease accounts for 38%, the number of patients in future reaches 950 thousands of patients in 2030, and the proportion of patients with moderate-severe disease is increased to 40%. The pathogenesis of psoriasis is associated with the dysregulation of the innate and adaptive immune systems, including dendritic cell activation and proinflammatory cytokine secretion, leading to the development of skin inflammation characteristic of psoriasis. In recent years, nearly 13 monoclonal antibodies and antibody-based biologic therapies have been approved for the treatment of psoriasis, about 10 or so monoclonal antibodies in clinical research phase, of which the youth (IL-12/IL-23 antibody, Qiangsheng) antibody, TNF-alpha drug Etanercept (Etanercept, Anin) and adalimumab (Humira, Aiberv) are the most popular drugs. Oral phosphodiesterase 4(PDE4) selective inhibitor drug apremilast (Otezla, Celgene corporation) was also approved in the united states for treatment of refractory psoriasis in 9 months 2014. However, even if these biopharmaceuticals are used as second-line drugs, the therapeutic efficacy and safety remain in great concern, and up to 40% of moderate to severe psoriasis patients fail to be treated with the existing biologicals, a phenomenon known as biofouling.
Recent studies have shown that: the pathogenesis of psoriasis is associated with T17 helper cells (Th17 cells), whereas the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-17A produced by Th17 cells and innate immune cells has been shown to be the major cytokine in the pathogenesis of psoriasis, with the immune system targeting IL-23 in the IL-17-Th17 pathway, indirectly leading to the development of psoriasis via IL-17A. Theoretically, inhibition of IL-17 may be a safer treatment option than other biologies, as demonstrated by the studies of head-to-head superiority of Nowa marketed for the IL-17A fully human IgG1 monoclonal antibody secukinumab, Aslicon marketed for the IL-17A receptor fully human IgG2 monoclonal antibody Brodalumab, and the present company for the IL-17A fully human IgG4 monoclonal antibody versus Etanercept and Ultezumab (IL-12/IL-23 antibody). Studies have shown that inhibitors developed against the IL-17A target can improve efficacy and safety compared to current therapeutic agents for inflammatory diseases (e.g., TNF- α inhibitors), and are more specific than IL-12 and IL-23 inhibitors in psoriasis patients who have TNF- α inhibitors and IL-12 and IL-23 inhibitors ineffective. It is particularly noteworthy that secukinumab (trade name Cosentyx) marketed at 1 month 2015, which is approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for first line treatment of psoriasis patients in place of other first line systemic therapies with significant side effects.
There is still a need for more innovative drugs with superior efficacy as a therapeutic approach for the choice of patients.

In addition, the present inventors have found that selecting the Fc fragment of IgG1 and further appropriately mutating the sequence of the Fc can largely eliminate antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP) and complement-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (CDC), and retain the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) -mediated in vivo recycling effect, with less side effects and safety as compared to the IL-17A and IL-17RA antibodies already on the market.
In addition, the invention enables the IL-17RA fusion protein to target multiple targets such as IL-17A, IL-17C, IL-17F, IL-17A/F and the like by selecting and designing the sequence of the IL-17RA, and has high affinity, thereby being capable of selectively blocking the combination of the IL-17A, IL-17C, IL-17F and the IL-17A/F and the receptor thereof, further effectively blocking the biological activity of various proinflammatory IL-17 cytokines and inhibiting inflammatory signal pathways, thereby being capable of more effectively relieving the symptoms of autoimmune diseases, obtaining better treatment benefit than a single IL-17A target antibody medicament and obtaining better safety than an IL-17RA monoclonal antibody. The action mechanism is different from the IL-17 target drugs which are on the market and are researched at present, and is the same type of pioneer drugs all over the world.
The invention comprehensively evaluates the activity and safety of the medicine in terms of binding affinity with IL-17A, biological activity cell experiments, GRO-alpha factor inhibiting capacity, in vitro activity titer, in vivo titer, ADCC/CDC functional activity, FcRn binding affinity, safe pharmacology, pharmacokinetics and toxicology.

Detailed Description
The present invention is further described by the following description of the embodiments with reference to the drawings, which are not intended to limit the invention, but various modifications or improvements can be made by those skilled in the art based on the basic idea of the invention, but the scope of the invention is within the scope of the invention.
Herein, the term "injection" means: sterile solutions (including true solutions, emulsions and suspensions) for infusion into the body, and lyophilized powders or concentrated solutions formulated into such sterile solutions (including true solutions, emulsions and suspensions) just prior to use.
Herein, the term "intravenous drip" refers to: a method of infusing a large amount of liquid containing a drug from a vein into a body through an infusion tube. Also called as infusion, drip, intravenous drip and hanging water.
As used herein, the term "IL-17A" refers to interleukin 17A.
As used herein, the term "IL-17 RA" refers to a receptor for IL-17A.
As used herein, the term "active ingredient" refers to a drug molecule having therapeutic effect on a disease, such as the IL-17RA fusion protein described herein.
The invention provides an IL-17RA fusion protein, which is characterized by comprising a signal peptide, an IL-17RA extracellular domain and an IgG1 constant region which are connected in series in sequence and can be operated.
The signal peptide mainly functions to guide the secretion of the target protein from the cytoplasm of the cell to the outside of the cell. Because the fusion protein has IgG1 constant region, when the fusion protein is secreted to the outside of cells, the two-molecule fusion protein forms double chains through cysteine combination of the constant region and exerts activity.
Preferably, the present invention uses the extracellular domain of human IL-17RA (Gene bank numbering: NP-055154) and carries out the R108K, D122G and H155D mutations, the amino acid sequence of which is shown in SEQ ID NO. 1. Also preferably, the present invention uses the extracellular domain of human IL-17RA and performs the L9P, R108K, D122G and H155D mutations, the amino acid sequence of which is shown in SEQ ID NO. 2. The present inventors have found that IL-17RA fusion proteins comprising these two mutants have improved thermostability, and improved binding affinity for IL-17A, compared to a fusion protein comprising the wild type. The amino acid numbering is from position 1 of the amino acid sequence of the extracellular domain of the human IL-17 RA.
Also preferably, the present invention uses the extracellular domain of human IL-17RA and performs L9P, R108K, D122G, H155D, G243W and a267V mutations, the amino acid sequence of which is shown in SEQ ID No. 3. The invention discovers that the IL-17RA fusion protein containing the mutant has improved heat stability compared with the wild type, and improved binding affinity to IL-17A, IL-17C, IL-17F, IL-17A/F; has a higher binding affinity for IL-17A than mutants comprising three and four mutations as described above.
The present invention selects the constant region (Fc) of human IgG1(Gene bank number: 3500) to form a fusion protein with IL-17 RA. The fusion protein not only retains the biological activity of functional protein molecules, but also ensures that the fused protein has longer cycle life and longer half-life because the Fc part has the characteristics of certain antibodies and is stable. IgG isotypes, including IgG1, IgG2, and IgG4, which cause different ADCC, ADCP and CDC effects, can have a significant impact on the toxicity of target and non-target tissues. The constant region of IgG1 has strong ADCC, ADCP and CDC effects. The present inventors have found that selection of the constant region of IgG1, and further appropriate mutation of the sequence of the Fc, can reduce the ADCC, ADCP and CDC effects of the IL-17RA fusion protein.
In preferred embodiments, the mutation sites are summarized in table 1 below. An additional mutation was to replace the cysteine residue in the hinge region of IgG1 with a serine residue to avoid the presence of unpaired cysteines in the fusion protein sequence.

Preferably, the amino acid sequence of the IL-17RA fusion protein is shown in SEQ ID NO.6, SEQ ID NO.7 or SEQ ID NO.8 (the IL-17RA extracellular domain has three mutations, four mutations and six mutations respectively), and the IL-17RA fusion protein has 522 amino acid residues.
For example, the sequence of SEQ ID NO.8 is shown in FIG. 1, wherein the first 32 amino acids (bold) are the IL-17RA signal peptide and the letters on a light gray background are the amino acid sequence of the recombinant human IL-17RA with 6 mutations (bold underlined letters); black background letters are linker amino acid sequences; the dark grey background letters are the amino acid sequences of the 3 modified (bold underlined letters) Fc portions described in table 1, where two bold cysteine residues are responsible for the dimerization of Fc. Asterisks (, s) show potential glycosylation sites.
The IL-17RA fusion protein provided by the invention has an action mechanism that a decoy receptor (IL-17RA-Fc) and a natural receptor compete to bind to an IL-17 molecule, effectively blocks the biological activity of various proinflammatory IL-17 cytokines and inhibits inflammatory signal paths by binding with IL-17A, IL-17C, IL-17F and IL-17A/F with high affinity, selectively blocking the binding of IL-17A, IL-17C, IL-17F and IL-17A/F with receptors thereof and not binding with IL-17B, IL-17D, IL-17E, thereby more effectively relieving the symptoms of autoimmune diseases, obtaining better treatment benefit than a single IL-17A target antibody medicament, and obtaining better safety than an IL-17RA monoclonal antibody.

Examples of the present invention
Unless otherwise indicated, the experimental procedures used in the examples below were performed using conventional experimental procedures, materials and conditions used in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical fields.
Hereinafter, unless otherwise specified, the percentage concentration (%) of each agent refers to the volume percentage concentration (% (v/v)) of the agent.
Preparation example 1: plasmid construction
NVS451 (i.e., IL-17RA fusion protein) consists of a signal peptide, rhIL17-RA ECD (i.e., human IL17-RA extracellular domain), linker peptide segment, and IgG1 Fc domain. Wherein the signal peptide is the natural signal peptide of IL17 RA. Six mutation sites were included in rhIL17-RA ECD, L9P, R108L, D122G, H155D, G243W, and a267V (amino acid numbering does not include signal peptide sequence). The linker peptide is GSG. IgG1 Fc domain hybrids of IgG1, 2, 4 were used to remove potential ADCC, CDC and ADCP effects. The amino acid sequence of NVS451 is shown as SEQ ID NO.8, and the nucleotide sequence is shown as SEQ ID NO. 16.
Plasmids were constructed using pCHO1.0 mammalian cell expression vectors from Thermo Scientific. The pcho1.0 expression vector contains two expression cassettes, and since only one expression cassette is required for the expression of NVS451 fusion protein, the other expression cassette is removed using the SfiI cleavage site, and the removed expression cassette contains the EcoRV and PacI cloning sites. The pcho1.0 vector after removal of one expression cassette was verified by sequence sequencing and was named pcho 1.1. The synthesized NVS451 fusion protein gene is inserted into a pCHO1.1(Kan resistance) expression vector through AvrII and Bstz17I cloning sites, and is transformed into DH5 alpha competent cells, plate-coating screening is carried out, clone containing plasmids with correct sizes is inoculated and amplified, and a large amount of constructed NVS451 fusion protein expression plasmids pCHO1.1-NVS4510 are obtained by plasmid extraction. Gene sequencing verified that the pCHO1.1-NVS451 expression vector was constructed correctly.
Preparation example 2: cell line screening and stability evaluation

Kit) cells as the primary cell matrix. NVS451 fusion protein expression plasmid pCHO1.1-NVS451 contains selection markers for puromycin and MTX. pCHO1.1-NVS4510 was transferred into CHO-S cells by transfection reagents. The transfection procedure was as follows: mu.g of the circular expression plasmid pCHO1.1-NVS451 was diluted to a volume of 1.5ml by Opti PRO SFM, 50. mu.l of Freestyle Max transfection reagent (GIBCO) was diluted to a volume of 1.5ml by Opti PRO SFM, then the plasmid dilution and transfection reagent dilution were mixed in equal volumes, and 30ml of a suspension of CHO-S cells at 1E6 cells/ml was added. Transfected cells were cultured for 48 hours prior to two-stage selection of stable transfectant clonal cell Pools (Pools) using puromycin and MTX as selection pressure. Since untransfected CHO-S lacks pac (adenylate cyclase) activity and has only basal DHFR (dihydrofolate reductase) activity, only CHO-S cells transfected with pCHO1.1-NVS4510 plasmid and integrated into the genome could harbor puromycin and MTX in CD FortCHO cells TM The medium was screened for survival and propagation. The screening was performed in two stages, each using puromycin and MTX. Finally, 4 pools of stably transfected clonal cells (Pool) were formed, T3S1, T3S2, T3S3, and T3S4, respectively. The expression level was evaluated by 14 days of simple fed batch culture (SFB). In combination with cell-based GRO- α inhibitory activity assays, affinity ELISAs and SPR assays (using conventional methods and not described in detail), two pools of T3S1 and T3S4 were selected for isolation of single clones (LDCs). Isolation of monoclonals were isolated using two rounds of limiting dilution, with a cell plating concentration of less than 1 cell/well per round (according to statistical mathematical calculations), and finally 5 candidate monoclonals were obtained: T3S4-7E3-6G 5; T3S4-7E3-3C 3; T3S4-17G2-6E 2; T3S4-8F2-6E 10; T3S1-18E7-6C 5.
Stability evaluation of 70PDL (cell doubling time, equivalent to 70 generations) was performed on 5 candidate clones, and based on expression stability, gene copy number, and stability of mRNA transcription level, one clone VAN301-T3S1-18E7-6C5 was finally selected as a master clone (accession number CGMCC 21011), and VAN301-T3S4-17G2-6E2 was selected as a backup clone.
The monoclonal VAN301-T3S1-18E7-6C5 was used to create PCBs (Primary cell Bank) and on this basis GMP-conditioned MCBs (Master cell Bank) and WCBs (working cell Bank).

1.4 biologically active cell assay
The cell line CCD-1070Sk (human fibroblast epithelial cell line, ATCC CRL-2091) used for the NVS451 in vitro activity assay belongs to a human fibroblast epithelial cell line, and a plurality of cytokine receptors including IL-17A, A/F and F exist on the surface of the cell line. IL-17A can bind to IL-17A receptor IL-RA on the cell surface, and stimulate the cell to produce the cytokine GRO-alpha, and the content can be accurately detected by ELISA double antibody sandwich method. When IL-17A and NVS451 are co-incubated with CCD-1070Sk cells, NVS451 is able to inhibit the binding of IL-17A to the IL-17A receptor IL-17RA on the cell surface by competing with the binding of IL-17A, thereby reducing the amount of GRO-. alpha.secreted in the cell supernatant. And NVS451 can also reduce the secretion of GRO-alpha in cell supernatant by binding to IL-17A/F, IL-17F based on the same mechanism of competitive inhibition. Thus, the in vitro activity of NVS451 on multiple targets, including IL-17A, IL-17A/F, IL-17F, can be determined by measuring cellular GRO- α secretion.

2. Pharmacodynamics in vivo
Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease, which is characterized by excessive proliferation and abnormal differentiation of keratinocytes, is caused by various factors, the pathogenesis is not completely clarified, a plurality of immune cells, immune-related cells (including dendritic cells, T cells, endothelial cells and the like) and cytokines are considered to participate in the pathogenesis of psoriasis and the maintenance of disease states at present [1], and the existing animal models with wide application can be roughly divided into a drug-induced acute inflammation model, a genetic engineering model and a xenotransplantation model.
Research on IMQ (Imiquimod, IMQ) induced model, wherein IMQ is an agonist of Toll-like receptor (TLR) 7/8, Van der Fits [2] and the like discovers that the change of psoriasis-like skin lesions of mice induced by IMQ is accompanied by the change of IL-23/IL-17 axis, has many similarities with the pathological change of human psoriasis, and has the advantages of simple and convenient operation, low cost and the like, so the method for smearing the skin of the mice with the IMQ to establish the psoriasis is the psoriasis model widely applied at home and abroad at present. However, as an acute inflammatory model, the limitations are: (1) non-specific, not only in psoriasis, but also in other diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus, atopic dermatitis and other skin lesions [3], IMQ-induced skin inflammation model was also used for systemic lupus erythematosus research [4 ]; (2) short treatment window, topical application of imiquimod causes dehydration and loss of body mass in mice, and continuous topical application for more than 2 weeks may lead to death of mice [5 ]; (3) poor repeatability, lack of standard operating procedures, etc.
A xenogeneic skin graft immunodeficient mouse (SCID) model, in which human skin is transplanted into SCID mice, and T cells injected into patients induce psoriasis symptoms, the genetic phenotype and pathogenic process of which are closest to those of human psoriasis, and are not affected by anti-drug antibodies (ADA) due to animal immunodeficiency, are one of the most suitable tools for studying the pathogenesis of psoriasis and drug development, and are most suitable for preclinical analyses for exploring new anti-psoriasis agents/treatment strategies prior to the start of clinical trials [6,7,8 ].
2.1 evaluation of the efficacy of NVS451 in the xenograft skin-transplanted SCID mouse psoriasis model (5, 10, 15mg/kg NVS 451).
NVS451 protein at the above concentrations was formulated in 20mM Tris-acetate, 65mM arginine, 120mM trehalose, 0.02% Tween 20, pH 7.5.
A total of 60 SCID mice (Envigo, yasuan, israel c.b-17/IcrHsd-SCID-bg (beige-SCID) mice) were used for the experiment, and healthy skin was transplanted onto the back of the mice and randomly divided into 6 groups of 10 mice each: negative control group (negative control group is prepared by using the preparation formula to remove NVS451), hormone group (2 mg/animal dexamethasone), secukinumab group (60mg/kg), test sample high dose group (15mg/kg), middle dose group (10mg/kg) and low dose group (5 mg/kg). The negative control group, the test group and the Sujin group were administered by subcutaneous injection for 28 days. Dexamethasone was administered topically 2 times daily for 28 days. At the end of the experiment, the skin appearance was observed (see figure 12 for results), and the skin thickness was measured. The results show that: NVS451 has a certain improvement effect on red swelling, plaques and scales, and is positively correlated with the dosage; the 15mg/kg dose group had no statistical difference in skin thickness (P > 0.05) from the sujin group, and NVS451 in this model had similar therapeutic effects to sujin.

2.2 evaluation of the efficacy of NVS451 (formulation as described in 2.1) in the xenograft skin-grafting SCID mouse psoriasis model (15, 22.5, 30, 45, 60mg/kg NVS451)
A total of 100 SCID mice (purchased from Envigo) were used in the experiment and were randomly divided into 10 groups after healthy skin was transplanted onto the backs of the mice (see Table 10). At the end of the experiment, the appearance of the skin was observed (see results in fig. 13), the transplanted skin was taken for the histological evaluation related to psoriasis (see results in fig. 14), and the skin thickness was measured. The results show that the NVS451 groups all showed therapeutic effects, with the 15mg/kg twice a week, 30mg/kg twice a week, 22.5mg/kg twice a week and 60mg/kg once a week groups having similar efficacy, with the xenograft skin all 7/10 fully recovered and the epidermis thickness decreased. However, 15mg/kg twice weekly, the remaining 3/10 showed partial recovery with a skin thickness of 334 ± 174 μm and a histological score of 1.1 (overall evaluation based on skin lesion epidermal thickness, thinning of the epidermis on the nipple, hyperkeratosis, parakeratosis, agranulocytosis, Munro micro-abscesses, elongation of normal or abnormal reticulum crest, vascular tortuosity, dermal papillary layer mononuclear cell infiltration, etc.).

3. Secondary pharmacodynamics
3.1 ADCC/CDC Effect-related receptor binding affinity assay
The mechanism of action of NVS451 to exert drug effect is independent of ADCC/CDC activity, and the cytotoxicity ADCC/CDC of Fc may bring unnecessary immune-related adverse events (iraE), with potential safety risk [9]]. To avoid this effect, the Fc portion of NVS451 was mutated at the relevant active site. In the affinity assay study, 7 CD molecules associated with ADCC and C1q molecules associated with CDC were evaluated. The results indicate that NVS451(75ug/ml) has a non-binding or low level (KD greater than 10) of binding affinity to ADCC-associated CD molecules -5 M order of magnitude, see table 12). In another study, NVS451 had significantly reduced affinity for ADCC/CDC-associated Fc receptors compared to an otherwise partially identical IL-17AR fusion protein (V301-wtFc) (75ug/ml) but with native IgG1 Fc (see Table 13).
The amino acid sequence of V301-wtFc is shown in SEQ ID NO. 17.

3.2 evaluation of ADCC/CDC functional Activity of Fc fragment region
The Fab region of IgG1 and IgG3 antibody subtypes bind to target cells, and the Fc portion of the Fab region binds to Fc receptors (e.g., Fc γ RIII) on CTL cells such as NK cells, and ADCC is induced. Cell models lacking membrane-expressed IL-17 are not effective in verifying in vitro the development of ADCC. Thus, the Fab fragment of Rituximab (Rituximab), which stimulates ADCC, was fused with the Fc fragment of NVS451 to construct RitxV301 (i.e., RitxNV 451) verification chimeric molecule (the amino acid sequence of the light chain is shown in SEQ ID No.18 and the amino acid sequence of the heavy chain is shown in SEQ ID No. 19). The removal of ADCC/CDC effect was verified (experimental data were analyzed using GraphPad Prism 5 analysis software, logarithm of antibody concentration was used as X-axis, corresponding calculated killing value was used as y-axis, four-parameter equation regression simulation was used to fit the antibody' S measured effect curve, the data were analyzed using GraphPad Prism 5 software, positive control antibody (rituximab) was fit to the four-parameter equation y ═ D + (a-D)/[1+ (X/C) B ], typical sigmoidal curve on semi-logarithmic axis, R2 ≧ 0.95, EC50 was calculated, ADCC and CDC effect were judged by EC50 values)). The results of the study showed (fig. 15 and 16): rituximab (roche (switzerland) shows strong ADCC and CDC killing effects on Raji cells, while RitxV301 shows no ADCC and CDC effects, indicating that the design of the Fc region of NVS451 is such that RitxV301 cannot induce NK-92MI CD16a cells to kill Raji cells, and the Fc region of NVS451 cannot bind to C1q molecules in complement and cannot initiate the complement cascade.
3.3 FcRn binding affinity assay
Fc fusion proteins generally improve the half-life of the protein drug of interest by FcRn-mediated circulation of Fc [10]. The magnitude of binding affinity for FcRn correlates with the half-life of the drug in vivo [11]. NVS451 binds to FcRn (enantiomers FCM-H5286, FCM-C5284, FCM-R5287) in human, monkey, and rat. Under the same conditions, the affinity of the protein is similar to that of the thuringiensis antibody and wild type IgG1 Fc (namely V301)wtFc) are all at the same level (KD of the order of 10 -8 M, see table 14), the experimental method is as follows: .
Reagent preparation
Running the reagent: containing 2mM KH 2 PO 4 ,10mM Na 2 HPO 4 137mM NaCl,2.7mM KCl, 0.05% Tween-20 (Tween-20), pH adjusted to 6.0;
his capture kit (cat # 28-9950-56, GE) comprising: mouse anti-His antibody (1mg/mL), immobilized reagent (10mM sodium acetate, pH 4.5), regenerated reagent (glycine hydrochloric acid, pH 1.5);
an amino coupling kit (cat # BR100050, GE) comprising: 115mg of N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS), 750mg of 1-ethyl- (3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) and 10.5mL of 1M ethanolamine (pH 8.5). 10mL of deionized water is respectively added into each tube of EDC and NHS, and the mixture is subpackaged and stored at a temperature of-18 ℃ to a lower temperature and has a shelf life of two months. (see GE amino coupling instruction Manual 22-0510-62 AG).
IL-17RA-wtFc (i.e. V301-wtFc) protein, FcRn protein of different species, was solubilized according to the product COA and dispensed at a size of greater than 10 μ g per tube. Repeated freeze thawing is avoided.
Protein desalination
Secukinumab and IL-17RA-wtFc protein were desalted using desalting column and Running Buffer (Running Buffer). The concentration of the desalted protein was measured by UV-V. The desalted protein is packaged in a size of more than 10 mug per tube, and repeated freeze thawing is avoided.
Chip preparation
The mouse anti-His antibody was diluted to 50. mu.g/mL with the immobilized reagent (10mM sodium acetate, pH 4.5), using about 100. mu.L of mouse anti-His antibody per channel on the chip, and adding 10. mu.L of mouse anti-His antibody using about 190. mu.L of the immobilized reagent for both channels. First, the surface of a CM5 chip (biocore sensor chip, GE) was activated for 420 seconds with 400mM EDC and 100mM NHS at a flow rate of 10. mu.L/min. Next, 50. mu.g/mL of mouse anti-His antibody was injected into the experimental channel (FC4) at a flow rate of 10. mu.L/min for about 420s, at a fixed amount of about 9000 to 14000 RU. Finally, the chip was blocked with 1M ethanolamine at 10. mu.L/min for 420 s. The reference channel (FC3) was subjected to the same procedure as the test channel (FC 4). (refer to the His Capture kit instruction manual of GE, 28-9974-71 AB).
Capture ligands
An FcRn stock sample was diluted to 0.5 μ g/mL with running reagent and injected into the experimental channel (FC4) at a flow rate of 10 μ L/min for approximately 40 RU. The reference channel (FC3) did not require capture of the ligand.
Analyte multicycle analysis
NVS451, secukinumab and IL-17RA-wtFc samples with different concentrations are diluted by corresponding running reagents, and the diluted samples are injected into an experimental channel and a reference channel at a flow rate of 30 mu L/min according to corresponding binding time and dissociation time in sequence. After each concentration analysis, the chip was regenerated for 60s with glycine HCl pH 1.5 at a flow rate of 30 μ L/min, washing off the ligand and undissociated analyte. For the next concentration analysis, the experimental channel needs to recapture the same amount of ligand.
Others
All the operation steps are carried out in the running reagent, and the analytical reagent of SPR needs to be filtered and degassed for use.

Respiratory index and electrocardiographic examination of each group of animals were performed at different time points (before the first dose (D-2), and 4h (+ -20 min), 24h (+ -20 min), 48h (+ -20 min), 72h (+ -20 min) after the first dose), and no administration-related TV and RR were observed, and no regular changes in heart rate, P-R interval, QT interval, QRS time limit, QRS voltage, STe, and QTcB values were observed, and electrocardiographic waveforms were not abnormal. Performing electrocardiogram limb II lead measurement 3-5 hours (D1) after the first dose (D-2), 3-5 hours (D15) after the 5-time dose (D1), 3-5 hours (D29) after the last dose and before the recovery period (D56), observing the heart rate, electrocardiogram waveform, P-R interval, QRS time limit and Q-T interval, wherein no abnormality is found, and no obvious abnormal change is found in blood pressure detection including MBP, DBP and SBP detection at each time point. Therefore, the test sample is considered to have no obvious influence on the central nervous system, the cardiovascular system and the respiratory system of the cynomolgus monkey by subcutaneous injection at the dosage of 15, 30 and 150 mg/kg.
1.2 central nervous System test in rats
The effect of a single subcutaneous administration of NVS451 on the central nervous system function of SD rats (purchased from the laboratory animal technology company Limited of Wei Tony, Beijing (animal production permit: SCXK (Jing)) at doses of 30mg/kg (low dose), 100mg/kg (medium dose) and 300mg/kg (high dose) under GLP (good laboratory practice) conditions, respectively, male animals in the high-dose group of the test article showed an increase in body temperature 2h after administration (the adjuvant control group (formulation prescription minus NVS451) vs high-dose group: 37.72 + -0.29 ℃ vs 38.40 + -0.14 ℃), the animals in the high-, medium-and low-dose groups showed an increase in body temperature 24h after administration, and the adjuvant control group: 37.60 + -0.28 ℃ vs 38.80 + -0.23, 38.72 + -0.44, 38.54 + -0.28 ℃) were evaluated by the functional combination of observations (FOB). The above-mentioned changes in body temperature were not observed in male-female concordance and no regular change, and were considered to be irrelevant to administration. In the cage observation, hand grasping observation, open environment observation and irritation reaction observation processes, no abnormal expression related to administration of the animals appears; no changes in the animal erection count, fecal mass count, forelimb grasping power, and body temperature were observed in relation to the test article. The result shows that NVS451 has no influence on the central nervous system function of rats under the test condition.
2. Pharmacokinetics
2.1 in vivo kinetics of cynomolgus monkeys
A total of 24 cynomolgus monkeys were used in the experiment and divided into 4 groups (6 animals per group, male and female halves). Single subcutaneous and intravenous administration, groups 1 to 4 were given NVS451 at 5 (subcutaneous), 15 (subcutaneous), 50 (subcutaneous), 15 (intravenous) mg/kg, respectively, at a dose capacity of 1 mL/kg.
Test A drug-containing blood sample (about 1mL) was collected from the non-administration site of the subcutaneous vein of the hind limb of the animal into a tube without anticoagulant, and the blood sampling time points of 1-3 groups of animals were: pre-drug (previous day), 1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 24h (D2), 32h (D2), 48h (D3), 56h (D3), 72h (D4), 96h (D5) after the start of administration; the blood sampling time points of the animals in group 4 were: before drug administration (day before), 3 minutes after the start of drug administration, 1h, 2h, 6h, 24h (D2), 32h (D2), 48h (D3), 56h (D3), 72h (D4) and 96h (D5). Blood samples were used to prepare serum samples and for pharmacokinetic analysis (table 15).

2.2 rat in vivo kinetics
The test shared 48 SD rats divided into 4 groups (12 animals per group, male and female halves). Single subcutaneous and intravenous administration, groups 1 to 4 were given 10 (subcutaneous), 30 (subcutaneous), 100 (subcutaneous), 30 (intravenous) mg/kg NVS451, respectively, at a dose capacity of 2 mL/kg.
Test A drug-based blood sample (about 0.4mL) was collected from the jugular vein of an animal into a tube without anticoagulant, and the blood sampling time points of 1-3 groups of animals were: before administration (D-1), 1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, 24h, 32h, 48h, 56h, 72h and 96h after the start of administration; the blood sampling time points of the animals in the 4 th group are as follows: before administration (D-1), 3min, 1h, 2h, 6h, 24h, 32h, 48h, 56h, 72h and 96h after the start of administration. Blood samples were used to prepare serum samples and for pharmacokinetic analysis (table 16).

C max Ratio is C max Medium and high dose mean/C max Low dose mean;
AUC ratio AUC last Medium and high dose mean/AUC last Low dose mean;
F%=(AUC last dose (SC))/(AUC) last Dose (IV)). 100%.
The test result shows that: within the dose range of 10-100 mg/kg, after a single subcutaneous injection is given to SD rats, the blood concentration of NVS451 in SD rats is increased along with the increase of the dose; no significant difference between sexes was observed after single subcutaneous and intravenous administration to SD rats.
After a single subcutaneous injection of NVS451 at a dose of 10, 30, 100mg/kg to SD rats, the mean Cmax and AUClast increase rates for NVS451 were lower than the dose increase rate. The Cmax ratio of NVS451 for the single subcutaneous injection group at 10, 30, 100mg/kg dose was 1: 2.03: 6.56 (Male) and 1: 1.62: 6.04 (female); the AUClast ratios are 1: 1.92: 5.29 (Male) and 1: 1.85: 5.85 (female).
The metabolic kinetic parameters of subcutaneous injection and intravenous injection have no obvious sex difference, and the metabolic characteristics of NVS451 in animals have no obvious sex difference basically.
In the dose range of 10-100 mg/kg, NVS451 is T1/2 in SD rats, and T1/2 of male and female animals in each dose group is 51.46-69.48; tmax of each dose group injected subcutaneously is basically consistent, and the drug concentration reaches the peak within 8-24 h.
3. Distribution and drainage
In the experiment, the tissue distribution and excretion characteristics of SD rats after the isotope (125I) -labeled NVS451 fusion protein (NVS451) for injection is subcutaneously injected are researched mainly by adopting a TCA protein precipitation method in combination with SHPLC (molecular exclusion high performance chromatography).
The test was carried out with 36 animals in total, divided into 6 groups of 6 animals each, half male and half female. The test article was administered as a single cervical and dorsal subcutaneous injection at a dose of 30 mg/kg. The 125I-labeled sample had an assay purity of 99.03% and a specific activity of 0.09 KBq/. mu.g. Animals of groups 1-4 were collected at 4h, 24h, 96h and 120h after administration, thyroid, heart, lung, liver, spleen, kidney, bladder, gonad (ovary, testis), stomach, small intestine, fat, muscle, brain, back skin (non-administration site), intestinal contents, serum, urine, respectively. Feces and urine were collected once a day for 5 days after administration to 5 groups of animals. The bile drained from 6 groups of animals was collected 1 time per hour after injection for a total of 8 hours.
The test result shows that:
1) after the rats are injected with 125I-NVS451 by subcutaneous injection, the medicine is mainly distributed in tissues/organs such as intestinal contents, urine, bladder, back skin and the like, and is less distributed in muscle, fat and brain. The peak time of the drug in most tissues is 4-24 h, and then the concentration of the drug gradually decreases with the time.
The drug has a certain distribution in the dorsal skin (non-administration site). The peak reaching time is 24 hours, and the drug content in 4 hours is approximately equal to that in 120 hours. The drug concentration in the skin of the back decreases more slowly than in other tissues/organs.
2) After the rats are injected subcutaneously and administered with 125I-NVS451, radioactivity is mainly excreted by kidneys, and more than 90% of the administered drug is excreted after 5 days; bile excretion is less.
4. Metabolism
According to the guidelines for "preclinical safety assessment of ICH-S6(R1) biologics," NVS451 is a macromolecular protein drug that is expected to degrade into peptides and amino acids in vivo, and then be excreted or reused for protein or peptide synthesis in vivo, and thus the metabolism of NVS451 was not assessed.
5. Toxicology
The cynomolgus monkey and SD rat were selected for toxicological studies, and NVS451 cross-reacts with cynomolgus monkey and rat IL-17A, which is a related species. The tests were all performed under GLP conditions, following the current good laboratory practice of the food and drug administration (21CFR Part 58), the "quality control practice for non-clinical research on drugs" of the national drug administration (former national food and drug administration (ministry of administration for supervision and administration for drug and drug administration) (title 34, 9 months 2017).
6. Single dose toxicity
6.1 toxicity study of Macaca fascicularis
In order to evaluate the possibility of acute toxicity after a single subcutaneous injection of NVS451 to a cynomolgus monkey within 14 days, three dose groups of 45mg/kg, 150mg/kg and 450mg/kg were set. No mortality or moribundity was observed in any of the groups during the test. No abnormality is found in clinical observation of animals in each administration group. Compared with the prior-drug value and the auxiliary material control group (NVS451 is removed from the preparation prescription), the weight, the body temperature, the electrocardiogram parameters, the blood cell count, the blood coagulation index, the blood biochemistry and the urine examination of animals in each administration group have no administration related abnormal change. At the end of the observation period (D15), all animals had no gross anatomical abnormalities. And (4) conclusion: under the conditions of this test, no mortality or moribundness, no administration-related abnormal changes, and a Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of greater than or equal to 450mg/kg were observed in all animals.
6.2 rat toxicity study
In order to evaluate the possible acute toxicity reaction condition in 14 days after a single subcutaneous injection of NVS451 to SD rats, three dose groups of 90mg/kg, 300mg/kg and 900mg/kg are set. During the test period, no death or moribund of each animal group was observed, the observation period was over (D15), and no abnormal change was observed in each animal group. And (4) conclusion: under the test conditions, all animals are not dead or dying, and the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of the animals is greater than or equal to 900 mg/kg.
7. Repeated administration toxicity
7.1 toxicity study on repeated dosing of cynomolgus monkeys
40 cynomolgus monkeys (20/sex) were used, and randomly divided into 4 groups (5/sex/group) by sex, which were an adjuvant control group and low, medium, and high dose groups of the test article, respectively. The animals in the adjuvant control group are administered with 2mL/kg adjuvant control, and the low, medium and high dosage groups of the test sample are administered with NVS451 at doses of 15, 50 and 150mg/kg, respectively, at doses of 0.2, 0.67 and 2mL/kg, respectively, and at a dose concentration of 75 mg/mL. All animals were administered via hind limb subcutaneous injection 2 times a week for 4 weeks for 9 times, i.e., D1, D4, D8, D11, D15, D18, D22, D25 and D29. During the test period, the animals are subjected to clinical observation, weight, body temperature, electrocardiogram, respiration (respiratory frequency and tidal volume), blood pressure, ophthalmologic examination, blood cell count, blood coagulation function, blood biochemistry, urine analysis and detection of immunological indexes (T lymphocyte subpopulation, cell factor, C-reactive protein, serum immunoglobulin, complement, anti-drug antibody) indexes; blood concentration was measured in each group of animals before and after the first and 8 th administrations. Part of the animals (3/sex/group) were euthanized the next day after the last dose (D30), the remaining animals were euthanized at the end of the 4-week recovery period (D57); all animals were bone marrow smeared and read, gross anatomical observations were made, the major organs were weighed, the relative organ weights (visceral volume ratio and visceral brain ratio) were calculated, and histopathological examination was performed on over 40 histo-organs.
As a result: during the test, no death or dying was observed in each group of animals, and no abnormal change associated with administration was observed in each group of animals in clinical observation, body weight, body temperature, ophthalmic examination, urine examination, blood cell count, blood coagulation function (excluding FIB), biochemical indices of blood, lymphocyte subpopulation, complement, cytokines (excluding IL-17A), and immunoglobulin. No abnormal changes related to drug administration were observed in the electrocardiogram, respiration and blood pressure parameters of the animals. Abnormal reactions such as erythema, edema, induration, ulceration and the like are not seen when the medicine is locally and visually observed.
During the test period, the test high dose group males observed an increase in CRP (193.0%) 5 days after dosing (D16) compared to the same cohort adjuvanted control group; on the next day after the last dose (D30), CRP (70.5%, 218.5%, 246.9%) was observed in the low, medium and high dose test group males, and FIB (56.4%) was also observed in the high dose test group males, with statistical significance of the difference (P ≦ 0.05). After 4 weeks of withdrawal, all the changes were completely recovered.
7.1.1 histopathological examination:
no death or dying condition of the animals is found in the test process.
After the last dose (D30), the regional injection and inguinal lymph nodes of the animals of 15, 50 and 150mg/kg dose groups are changed related to the test sample, wherein the regional injection shows slight to moderate mononuclear cell inflammation of dermis/subcutaneous/muscular layer and is the irritant reaction caused by the test sample; the minor to moderate accessory cortex area/medullary cord lymphocyte of the inguinal lymph node is increased in number, is related to local mononuclear cell inflammation by injection, is not obviously changed by combining with relevant indexes of clinical pathology, and is considered as non-adverse reaction.
At the end of the 4-week recovery period (D57), the changes associated with the test article in the 15 and 50mg/kg dose groups were completely recovered and the changes associated with the test article in the 150mg/kg dose groups were substantially recovered.
7.2 repeated dose toxicity Studies in rats
192 SD rats, male and female, were used, and divided into 8 groups by sex section at random according to body weight, 120 rats of 1-4 main test groups were used for toxicology study (15 rats/sex/group), and 72 rats of 5-8 satellite groups were used for serum antibody and pharmacokinetic test (6-10 rats/sex/group). During the test period, the vehicle control group animals were given NVS451 white vehicle solution (4 mL/kg); the low, medium and high dose fractions of the test sample were administered to NVS451 at doses of 30, 100, 300mg/kg, respectively, and at doses of 0.4, 1.33, 4mL/kg, respectively. All animals were given a subcutaneous injection at the back of the neck 2 times a week for 4 weeks for 9 total doses (i.e., D1, D4, D8, D11, D15, D18, D22, D25, and D29) for a 4-week recovery period.
During the test period, the animals in the main test group are mainly clinically observed and detected for weight, food intake, body temperature, blood cell count, blood coagulation function, blood biochemistry, ophthalmology examination, urine examination, T lymphocyte subpopulation and cell factors; the animals of the satellite group were bled before and after the first and 8 th administrations for pharmacokinetic testing and antibody measurements at different time points (before the first administration (D-1), before the 15 th administration (D14), before the last administration (D28) and at the end of the recovery period (D56)). The first 10 animals/sex/group of the main test group were euthanized the next day after the last dose (D30), and the remaining animals were euthanized at the end of the 4-week recovery period (D57). All animals in the main test group were subjected to gross anatomical observation, the main organs were weighed, and the relative organ weights were calculated; and injecting the auxiliary material into more than 40 tissues and organs of the animals in the control group and the high-dosage group and the animals in the low-dosage and medium-dosage groups for local injection and histopathological examination.
As a result: during the test period, no death or dying of each group of animals is observed, and no abnormality is observed in clinical observation. No erythema, congestion, swelling, ulceration and induration were observed visually on the dosed area. The ophthalmic examination and the urine examination of each group of animals are not abnormal; compared with the control group with the same-period auxiliary materials, the animal weight, body temperature, food consumption, blood cell count, blood coagulation function, blood biochemistry and T lymphocyte subpopulation of each group have no abnormal change related to administration.
7.2.1 pathological examination:
no animals died during this test.
The animals were euthanized and observed for gross observation, and no changes were observed in relation to the test article.
Animals were euthanized at the end of dosing (D30), and the groups at 30, 100 and 300mg/kg doses had local visible irritative reactions associated with the test article, manifested by a slight to moderate mononuclear cell inflammation of the local subcutaneous and/or dermal injection. By the end of the 4-week recovery period, the local inflammation was substantially completely recovered by injection.
8. Local tolerance to toxicity
Local tolerability toxicity test was carried out with prolonged toxicity, and cynomolgus monkey and SD rat were dosed twice a week (three rat dose groups 30, 100 and 300mg/kg, three cynomolgus monkey dose groups 15, 50 and 150mg/kg) for 4 weeks (i.e. D1, D4, D8, D11, D15, D18, D22, D25 and D29) for 9 consecutive doses. During the test period, abnormal reactions such as erythema, edema, induration, ulceration and the like are not observed in the local administration of each group of animals, the local tolerance is good, and toxicity is not seen.
9. Other toxicity
Using an in vitro test tube method, the effect of 75mg/mL NVS451 on hemolysis and aggregation of human erythrocytes was observed (experimental conditions are conventional). From 15 minutes after the incubation in the incubator to the end of 3 hours of observation, the upper liquid of the test tube can be seen in the test tube, colorless and clear, the red blood cells at the bottom of the test tube sink, and are uniformly dispersed after shaking, so that hemolysis and condensation do not occur. Under the test conditions, 75mg/mL of NVS451 did not cause hemolysis or aggregation of human erythrocytes in vitro.
Conclusion
1. Pharmacodynamic comprehensive assessment and conclusion
In vitro pharmacodynamics: the analysis of binding affinity with IL-17A showed that NVS451 binds human IL-17A with high affinity, higher than that of secukinumab and wild-type human IL-17RA under the same conditions. In addition to binding to the IL-17A molecule of the human IL-17 family, NVS451 also binds to IL-17C, IL-17F, IL-17 AF. NVS451 had a higher affinity for human IL-17C, IL-17F than wild-type human IL-17 RA. The cell experiment of biological activity shows that NVS451 fusion protein shows the inhibition ability to IL-17A, IL-17A/F, IL-17F-induced GRO-alpha cytokine, and the inhibition ability to IL-17A-induced GRO-alpha cytokine is better than the IC of Sujin monoclonal antibody (Cosentyx) 50 The value is lower.
Based on these in vitro potency results, NVS451 acts primarily by inhibiting IL-17A and IL-17C, IL-17F, IL-17AF activity. The interactions shown by the SPR experiments suggest that in vivo, the recommended dose of NVS451 exerts a primary inhibition of IL-17A in psoriasis patients, supplemented by the clinical activity of the IL-17C, IL-17F, IL-17AF molecule.
The affinity analysis study showed that the binding affinity of NVS451 to ADCC-associated CD molecules was at a non-binding or low level and that its affinity to ADCC/CDC-associated Fc receptors was significantly reduced compared to native IgG1 Fc, demonstrating that the ADCC binding site of NVS451 was removed by mutation. Binding affinity analysis to FcRn showed that NVS451 can bind to FcRn in human, monkey, rat. Under the same conditions, the affinity of the protein is the same as that of secukinumab and wild type IgG1 Fc, NVS451 can be combined with FcRn of different species of human, cynomolgus monkey and rat 3 under the acidic condition of pH6.0, and is not combined under the neutral condition of pH 7.4. NVS451 is a soluble antibody Fc fusion protein carrying the Fc domain of human IgG1 and is therefore theoretically capable of interacting with Fc receptors, but the mechanism of action of NVS451 to exert its pharmacological effect is independent of ADCC/CDC activity, and the cytotoxicity of Fc, ADCC/CDC, may bring unwanted immune-related side effects, with potential safety risks. To avoid this effect, the Fc portion of NVS451 was mutated at the relevant active site. Studies demonstrated a significant decrease in ADCC/CDC/ADCP-related Fc receptor affinity compared to native IgG1 Fc, and target cell killing experiments (as shown in figures 15 and 16) demonstrated that NVS451 had no ADCC/CDC activity.
In vivo pharmacodynamics: functionally in vivo, NVS451 was evaluated for efficacy on psoriasis, primarily in a human T cell driven psoriasis model. Studies have demonstrated that human skin xenograft models are best suited for preclinical analysis before the start of clinical trials exploring new anti-psoriasis agents/treatment strategies, showing the efficacy of NVS451 in treating humanized psoriasis models by xenograft SCID mouse model skin histology assessment including score and epidermal thickness, in xenograft SCID mouse psoriasis models NVS451 is administered at 5mg/kg, 10mg/kg and 15mg/kg doses every other day for 28 days, showing a certain degree of improvement in NVS451 on redness, plaques and scales, and positively correlated with dose; the 15mg/kg dose group had no statistical difference in skin thickness from the secukins group (P > 0.05), and treatment with the highest dose of NVS451(60mg/kg) once a week was as effective as treatment with the low dose twice a week, most importantly, treatment with NVS451 twice a week or treatment with the high dose once a week showed similar therapeutic effects to the positive control of secukinumab. Secukinumab is considered one of the most promising drugs for the treatment of psoriasis, and this study provides strong clinical evidence support for the effectiveness of clinical treatments.
Safe pharmacology: under GLP conditions, NVS451 was administered at 30mg/kg, 100mg/kg and 300mg/kg by single subcutaneous injection, and the results showed that NVS451 had no effect on rat central nervous system function. The cynomolgus monkey safety pharmacological test is carried out along with long toxicity: the test article was injected subcutaneously at doses of 15, 30 and 150mg/kg, and showed no significant effect on the central nervous system, cardiovascular system and respiratory system of cynomolgus monkeys.
2. Comprehensive evaluation and conclusion of pharmacology and toxicology
Since NVS451 cross-reacts with cynomolgus monkeys and rodent IL-17A, cynomolgus monkeys and rats were selected as the relevant species for toxicity evaluation. NVS451 was administered to cynomolgus monkeys by repeated subcutaneous injections at 15, 50, and 150mg/kg doses, 2 times per week for 4 consecutive weeks for 9 total doses, and no death or moribund of each group of animals was observed, and no significant systemic toxicity was observed, and the non-adverse effect dose (NOAEL) in this test was considered to be 150 mg/kg. The NVS451 fusion protein for injection is repeatedly injected subcutaneously into SD rats at the dose of 30, 100 and 300mg/kg for 2 times per week, continuously administered for 4 weeks, and administered for 9 times, and the animals have no obvious systemic toxicity reaction and are considered to have no adverse reaction dose (NOAEL) of 300 mg/kg. Cynomolgus monkey and rat pharmacokinetics showed no accumulation of NVS451 after repeated dosing.
Single dose non-GLP pharmacokinetic experiments were performed in cynomolgus monkeys and rats to observe the pharmacokinetic basic of NVS451 administered via intravenous and subcutaneous routes. The absorption pharmacokinetics of NVS451 in male and female cynomolgus monkeys after a single subcutaneous administration was evaluated, and its pharmacokinetic behavior had a low serum clearance and half-life of typical immunoglobulin molecules, and effective drugs were detected after 96 hours of subcutaneous administration in each dose group. In a single pharmacokinetic experiment of a cynomolgus monkey and an SD rat, the metabolic data have no obvious sex difference, the NVS451 is T1/2 in the cynomolgus monkey in a dose range of 5-50 mg/kg, and the average T1/2 of males and females in each dose group is between 27.20-39.90 h. NVS451 has T1/2 in SD rats within the dose range of 10-100 mg/kg, and T1/2 in male and female animals of each dose group is between 51.46-69.48 h.
3. Non-clinical conclusions:
NVS451 is a high affinity antibody Fc fusion protein that selectively targets IL-17A, IL-17C, IL-17F and IL-17AF heterodimeric cytokines, binding data indicating that NVS451 has high affinity for a predetermined target in humans and cynomolgus monkeys.
In summary, the present invention provides a summary of non-clinical data for a program that provides evidence of target specificity and mode of action, showing similar therapeutic effects to the positive control of secukinumab using NVS451 twice a week or high dose once a week. NVS451 was well tolerated in a comprehensive toxicology study. All non-clinical evaluation studies provide strong evidence support for the effectiveness and safety of clinical treatment of NVS 451.
