Abstract
Disclosed herein are monoclonal antibodies to AXL, bispecific antibodies to AXL and CD3, nucleic acids comprising said antibodies, vectors comprising said nucleic acids, and host cells comprising said nucleic acids or said vectors. Pharmaceutical compositions and antibody-drug conjugates comprising the antibodies, and methods of treatment using the antibodies are also disclosed.
Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to antibodies directed against AXL, and the use of such antibodies, in particular their use in the treatment of cancer.
Background
AXL is a member of the TAM (Tyro 3-AXL-Mer) Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) sharing the vitamin K dependent ligand GAS6 (growth arrest-specific 6). The AXL gene is cloned from human Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) cells, in which it encodes a 140KDa protein with transforming capacity. The protein structure of AXL contains two immunoglobulin-like domains (Ig) and two fibronectin III domains in the extracellular region, a single transmembrane domain and an intracellular protein-tyrosine kinase domain. In contrast to most receptor tyrosine kinases, germline inactivation of TAM receptors does not lead to embryonic lethality. Aged Tyro3-AXL-Mertk triple knockout mice can develop a variety of degenerative diseases associated with the inability of phagocytes to clear apoptotic cells and cell membranes in the adult reproductive system, retinal system, and immune system. Analysis of germ line Gas6 and AXL deficient mice indicated that Gas6/AXL signaling plays an important role in platelet aggregation and vascular integrity in the liver. Platelet aggregation ability from mice lacking Gas6 or any of the TAM receptors (including Axl) is impaired. Although Gas6, AXL, tyro3 or Mertk deficient mice do not bleed under physiological conditions, these mice do not form life threatening thrombi. GAS6/TAM signaling on platelets activates PI3K/AKT signaling to stimulate tyrosine phosphorylation of β3 integrin and to amplify outside-in signaling via αiibβ3 to promote platelet activation and aggregation. Furthermore, GAS6 and AXL are both expressed by endothelial cells that regulate vascular permeability in the liver.
Most AXL signaling occurs in a GAS 6-mediated ligand-dependent manner. Activating mutations within the AXL kinase domain are rare in cancer (cancer genomic profile, TCGA). In cancer, AXL signaling can be activated by GAS6 in an autocrine or paracrine manner. Clinically, GAS6 expression in tumor specimens is a poor prognostic factor for urothelial cancer, ovarian cancer, lung adenocarcinoma, gastric cancer and glioblastoma. The focus of the last decade of research has been to elucidate the functional role of GAS6/AXL signaling in the tumor microenvironment and to determine the molecular mechanisms by which GAS6/AXL signaling promotes tumor progression.
Axl receptor overexpression has been detected in a wide range of solid tumors and myeloid leukemias (Linger et al, adv Cancer Res.100:35,2008; linger et al, expert Opin Ther targets.14:1073,2010). Axl expression is associated with malignancy progression and is an independent predictor of poor overall survival for a variety of malignant patients including: pancreatic cancer (Song et al, cancer.117:734,2011), prostate cancer (Paccez et al, oncogene.32:698,2013), lung cancer (Ishikawa et al, ann Surg Oncol.2012; zhang et al, nat Genet.44:852,2012), breast cancer (Gjerdrum, proc natl Acad Sci USA107:1124,2010), colon cancer (Yuen et al, PLoS One, 8:54211, 2013) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) (Ben-Batala et al, blood 122:2443, 2013).
Clinical and preclinical studies indicate that AXL has important roles in tumor progression, metastasis and drug resistance. These findings present an interesting possibility that therapeutic targeting of AXL could be an effective anticancer strategy. AXL is an attractive therapeutic target because most AXL signaling occurs in a ligand-dependent manner mediated by GAS 6. In cancer, GAS6/AXL signaling can be activated in an autocrine or paracrine fashion by tumor cells as well as cells within the tumor microenvironment (including macrophages and endothelial cells derived from biologically relevant GAS6 production). This allows the development of several classes of AXL inhibitors, including inhibitors that neutralize GAS6, target AXL receptors, or inhibit AXL tyrosine kinase activity.

Detailed Description
The above features and advantages of the present invention and additional features and advantages thereof will be more clearly understood from the following detailed description of embodiments taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
The embodiments described herein with reference to the drawings are illustrative, exemplary, and are intended for a general understanding of the present invention. The embodiments should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. The same or similar elements and elements having the same or similar functions are denoted by the same reference numerals throughout the specification.
Unless otherwise indicated or defined, all terms used have the ordinary meaning in the art as would be apparent to one of ordinary skill. For example, reference is made to standard manuals, such as Leuenberger, H.G.W, nagel, B.and Klbl, H.eds., "Amultilingual glossary of biotechnological terms (IUPAC Recommendations)", helvetica Chimica Acta (1995), CH-4010Basel, switzerland; sambrook et al, "Molecular Cloning: ALaboratory Manual" (2 nd Ed.), vols.1-3,Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press (1989); ausubel et al eds., "Current protocols in molecular biology", green Publishing and Wiley InterScience, new York (1987); roitt et al, "Immunology (6 th Ed.), mosby/Elsevier, edinburgh (2001); and Janeway et al, "immunology" (6 th Ed.), garland Science Publishing/Churchill Livingstone, new York (2005), and the general background art cited above.
As used herein, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to "an antibody" includes a plurality of antibodies and, in some embodiments, reference to "an antibody" includes a plurality of antibodies, and so forth.
Unless otherwise indicated or defined, the terms "comprises," "comprising," and variations thereof such as "comprises" and "comprising" are to be understood to imply the inclusion of a stated element or step or group of elements or steps but not the exclusion of any other element or step or group of elements or steps.
As used herein, the term "antibody" refers to an immunoglobulin molecule that has the ability to specifically bind to a particular antigen. Antibodies typically comprise a variable region and a constant region in each of the heavy and light chains. The variable regions of the heavy and light chains of antibodies contain binding domains that interact with the antigen. The constant region of an antibody may mediate the binding of an immunoglobulin to host tissues or factors, including various cells of the immune system (e.g., effector cells) and components of the complement system such as C1q (the first component of the classical pathway of complement activation). Thus, most antibodies have a heavy chain variable region (VH) and a light chain variable region (VL) that together form the part of the antibody that binds to an antigen.
The "light chain variable region" (VL) or "heavy chain variable region" (VH) consists of "framework" regions separated by three "complementarity determining regions" or "CDRs". The framework regions are used to align CDRs that specifically bind to an epitope. CDRs include amino acid residues in antibodies that are primarily responsible for antigen binding. The VL domain and VH domain both comprise the following Framework (FR) and CDR regions from amino-to carboxy-terminus: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3 and FR4. CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 of the VL domain are also referred to herein as LCDR1, LCDR2, and LCDR3, respectively; CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 of the VH domain are also referred to herein as HCDR1, HCDR2, and HCDR3, respectively.
The amino acid arrangement of each VL domain and VH domain is consistent with any conventional definition of CDRs. Conventional definitions include the Kabat definition (Kabat, sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest (National Institutes of Health, bethesda, MD,1987 and 1991)), the Chothia definition (Chothia and Lesk, J. Mol. Biol.196:901-917,1987; chothia et al, nature342:878-883, 1989); chothia Kabat CDR, wherein CDR-H1 is a complex of Chothia CDR and Kabat CDR; abM definition used by Oxford Molecular antibody modeling software; CONTACT definition by Martin et al (world wide web bioinfo. Org. Uk/abs). Kabat provides a widely used numbering convention (Kabat numbering system) in which corresponding residues between different heavy chains or between different light chains are given the same number. The present disclosure may use CDRs defined according to any of these numbering systems, but preferred embodiments use Kabat-defined CDRs.
As used herein, the term "antibody" is to be understood in its broadest sense and includes monoclonal antibodies (including full length monoclonal antibodies), polyclonal antibodies, antibody fragments, and multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies) that contain at least two antigen-binding regions. Antibodies may contain additional modifications such as non-naturally occurring amino acids, mutations in the Fc region, and mutations in glycosylation sites. Antibodies also include post-translationally modified antibodies, fusion proteins comprising an epitope of an antibody, and any other modified immunoglobulin molecule comprising an antigen recognition site, so long as the antibodies exhibit the desired biological activity.
As used herein, the term "antigen-binding fragment" of an antibody refers to one or more fragments of an antibody that retain the ability to specifically bind an antigen (e.g., AXL protein). It has been shown that the antigen binding function of an antibody can be performed by fragments of full length antibodies.
Examples of antigen binding fragments encompassed by the term "antigen binding portion" 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 bond at the hinge region; (iii) Fab' fragments, which are essentially Fab with a partial hinge region; (iv) Fd fragment consisting of VH and CH1 domains; (v) Fd' fragments having VH and CH1 domains and one or more cysteine residues at the C-terminus of the CH1 domain; (vi) Fv fragment consisting of VL and VH domains of the antibody single arm; (vii) a dAb fragment consisting of a VH domain; (viii) individual Complementarity Determining Regions (CDRs); (ix) Nanobodies, heavy chain variable regions containing a single variable domain and two constant domains. Furthermore, although the two domains of the Fv fragment, VL and VH, are encoded by separate genes, they can be joined, using recombinant methods, by a synthetic linker, enabling them to form a single protein chain, in which the VL and VH regions pair to form monovalent molecules, known as single chain Fv (scFv). Such single chain antibodies are also intended to be encompassed within the term "antigen-binding fragment" of an antibody. In addition, the term also includes "linear antibodies" comprising a pair of tandem Fd fragments (VH-CH 1-VH-CH 1) that are complementary to a light chain polypeptide And any modified form of the foregoing fragments that retain antigen binding activity together form an antigen binding region.
These antigen binding fragments can be obtained using conventional techniques known to those skilled in the art and the fragments screened for utility in the same manner as whole antibodies.
As used herein, the term "binding" or "specific binding" refers to a non-random binding reaction between two molecules, such as an antibody and its target antigen. The binding specificity of an antibody may be determined based on affinity and/or avidity. Affinity is expressed by the equilibrium constant (KD) for antigen-to-antibody dissociation, a measure of the strength of binding between an epitope and the antigen binding site of an antibody: the smaller the value of KD, the stronger the binding strength between the epitope and the antibody. Alternatively, affinity can also be expressed as an affinity constant (KA), which is 1/KD.
Avidity is a measure of the strength of binding between an antibody and the associated antigen. Avidity relates to the affinity between an epitope and the antigen binding site of an antibody and the number of relevant binding sites present on the antibody. Typically, an antibody will bind an antigen with the following dissociation constants (KD): 10 -5 M to 10 -12 M or less, and preferably 10 -7 M to 10 -12 M or less, and more preferably 10 -8 M to 10 -12 M, and/or bind antigen with the following binding affinities: at least 10 7 M -1 Preferably at least 10 8 M -1 More preferably at least 10 9 M -1 Such as at least 10 12 M -1 . Generally considered to be any greater than 10 -4 K of M D Values represent non-specific binding. Specific binding of an antibody to an antigen or antigenic determinant can be determined in any known suitable manner, including, for example, scatchard analysis and/or competitive binding assays, such as Radioimmunoassays (RIA), enzyme Immunoassays (EIA) and sandwich competition assays, as well as different variants thereof known in the art.
The term "epitope" refers to the site on an antigen to which an antibody binds. Epitopes can be formed by contiguous amino acids or by tertiary folded juxtaposition of non-contiguous amino acids of one or more proteins. Epitopes formed by consecutive amino acids (also referred to as linear epitopes) are typically retained in exposure to denaturing solvents, whereas epitopes formed by tertiary folding (also referred to as conformational epitopes) are typically lost in treatment with denaturing solvents. Epitopes typically comprise at least 3, more typically at least 5 or 8-10 amino acids in a unique spatial conformation. The epitope defines the smallest binding site of an antibody and is therefore a specific target for the antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof.
As used herein, the term "sequence identity" refers to the degree to which two sequences (amino acids) have identical residues at identical positions after alignment. For example, "amino acid sequence and SEQ ID NO: y is X% identical "means that the amino acid sequence is identical to SEQ ID NO: y and is set forth as X% of the residues in the amino acid sequence being identical to SEQ ID NO: residues of the sequences disclosed in Y are identical.
Such calculations are typically performed using a computer program. Exemplary procedures for comparing and aligning pairs of sequences include ALIGN (Myers and Miller, 1988), FASTA (Pearson and Lipman,1988; pearson, 1990), gapped BLAST (Altschul et al, 1997), BLASTP, BLASTN, or GCG (Devereux et al, 1984).
Furthermore, in determining the degree of sequence identity between two amino acid sequences, the skilled artisan may consider so-called "conservative" amino acid substitutions, which may generally be described as amino acid substitutions in which an amino acid residue is replaced with another amino acid residue having a similar chemical structure, which have little or no effect on the function, activity, or other biological properties of the polypeptide. Such conservative amino acid substitutions are well known in the art.
Such conservative substitutions are preferably substitutions in which one amino acid in the following groups (a) to (e) is substituted by another amino acid residue in the same group: (a) small aliphatic, non-polar or weakly polar residues: ala, ser, thr, pro and Gly; (b) Polar, negatively charged residues and (uncharged) amides: asp, asn, glu and Gln; (c) polar, positively charged residues: his, arg and Lys; (d) large aliphatic, nonpolar residues: met, leu, he, val and Cys; and (e) an aromatic residue: phe, tyr and Trp.
Particularly preferred conservative substitutions are as follows: ala to Gly or to Ser; arg to Lys; asn to Gln or to His; asp to Glu; cys to Ser; gln to Asn; glu to Asp; gly to Ala or to Pro; his to Asn or to Gln; lie to Leu or to Val; leu to Ile or to Val; lys to Arg, to gin, or to Glu; met to Leu, to Tyr or to Ile; phe to Met, to Leu, or to Tyr; ser to Thr; thr to Ser; trp to Tyr; tyr to Trp; and/or Phe to Val, to Ile or to Leu.
As used herein, the term "monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody obtained from a substantially homogeneous population of antibodies. That is, each antibody that makes up the population is identical except for a small number of mutations that may occur naturally. Monoclonal antibodies are highly specific and directed against a single antigen. The term "monoclonal antibody" herein is not limited to antibodies produced by hybridoma technology, nor should it be construed as requiring antibodies produced by any particular method.
The term "bispecific antibody" is in the context of the present invention to be understood as an antibody having two different antigen binding regions defined by different antibody sequences. This is understood to be binding to different targets, but also includes binding to different epitopes of one target.
As used herein, the term "tumor-associated antigen" refers to an antigen that is differentially expressed in cancer cells as compared to normal cells, and thus can be used to target cancer cells.
As used herein, the term "CD3" refers to a human CD3 protein complex having 5 peptide chains, a gamma chain, a delta chain, an epsilon chain, a zeta chain, and a eta chain, and associating with T cell receptors alpha and beta chains to form a TCR-CD3 complex. The term includes any CD3 variant, subtype and species homolog that may be expressed naturally by cells including T cells or by cells transfected with a gene or cDNA encoding the above chain.
As used herein, the term "dual-specific T cell adapter" or "BiTE" refers to a polypeptide chain molecule having two antigen binding domains, one of which binds to a T cell antigen and the second of which binds to an antigen presented on the surface of a target cell (see PCT publication WO 05/061547; baeuerle et al, 2008,Drugs of the Future 33:137-147; barbou et al, 2008,Science 321:974-977, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety). Thus, the BiTE of the present disclosure has an antigen-binding region that binds AXL and a second antigen-binding region that is directed against a T cell antigen.
As used herein, the term "vector" means a nucleic acid molecule capable of transporting another nucleic acid to which it is linked.
As used herein, the term "host cell" refers to a cell into which an expression vector has been introduced.
The term "pharmaceutically acceptable" means that the carrier or excipient is compatible with the other ingredients of the composition and not deleterious to the recipient thereof in large amounts, and/or that such carrier or excipient is approved or available for inclusion in a pharmaceutical composition for parenteral administration to a human.
As used herein, the terms "treatment," "therapy," "treatment," and the like refer to administration of an agent or performing a procedure for the purpose of achieving an effect. These effects may be prophylactic in terms of completely or partially preventing a disease or symptom thereof, and/or may be therapeutic in terms of achieving a partial or complete cure of the disease and/or disease symptom. As used herein, "treating" may include treating a disease or disorder (e.g., cancer) in a mammal, particularly a human, and includes: (a) Preventing the occurrence of a disease or disease symptom in a subject who may be susceptible to the disease (e.g., including a disease that may be associated with or caused by a primary disease) but has not yet been diagnosed with the disease; (b) inhibiting the disease, i.e., arresting its development; and (c) alleviating the disease, i.e., causing regression of the disease. Treatment may refer to any indication of success in the treatment or amelioration or prevention of cancer, including any objective or subjective parameter, such as reduction of symptoms; relief; eliminating or making the disease condition more tolerable to the patient; slowing the rate of deterioration or decay; or to attenuate the final node of the deterioration. Treatment or amelioration of symptoms is based on one or more objective or subjective parameters; including the results of the physician's examination. Thus, the term "treatment" includes administration of an antibody or composition or conjugate disclosed herein to prevent or delay, alleviate, or prevent or inhibit the development of symptoms or disorders associated with a disease (e.g., cancer). The term "therapeutic effect" refers to the reduction, elimination or prevention of a disease, disease symptom or disease side effect in a subject.
As used herein, the term "effective amount" refers to an amount sufficient to effect treatment of a disease when administered to a subject to treat the disease.
As used herein, the term "subject" refers to any mammalian subject for whom diagnosis, treatment or management is desired. "mammal" for therapeutic purposes refers to any animal classified as a mammal, including humans, domestic animals, and laboratory, zoo, sports, or pet animals, such as dogs, horses, cats, cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, mice, rats, rabbits, guinea pigs, monkeys, etc.

Other cancer cell antigens are encoded by mutated cellular genes such as oncogenes (e.g., activated Ras oncogenes), suppressor genes (e.g., mutated P53), and fusion proteins resulting from internal deletions or chromosomal translocations. Other cancer antigens may be encoded by viral genes such as those carried by RNA and DNA oncolytic viruses. Many other tumor-associated antigens and antibodies thereto are known and/or commercially available and may also be prepared by those skilled in the art.
Examples of tumor-associated antigens include, but are not limited to, 5T4, alpha fetoprotein, CA-125, carcinoembryonic antigen, CD19, CD20, CD22, CD23, CD30, CD33, CD40, CD56, CD79, CD78, CD123, CD138, C-Met, CSPG4, igM, C-lectin-like molecule 1 (CLL-1), EGFR, EGFRvIII, epithelial tumor antigen, ERBB2, FLT3, folate binding protein, GD2, GD3, HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gp41, HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gpl20, melanoma-associated antigen, MUC-1, mutated p53, mutated ras, ROR1, GPC3, VEGFR2, and combinations thereof.

Thus, in a specific embodiment, the Fc region comprises an IgG1 sequence having the N297Q mutation.
In a further embodiment, the Fc region is glycoengineered to reduce fucose and thus enhance ADCC, for example by adding compounds to the medium during antibody production, as described in US2009317869 or as described in van Berkel et al (2010) Biotechnol. Bioeng.105:350, or by knocking out cells using FUT8, for example as described in Yamane-Ohnuki et al (2004) Biotechnol. Bioeng 87:614.

All animal experiments were performed according to guidelines of the animal committee of the national academy of sciences.
Example 1 screening of anti-AXL antibodies by hybridoma technology
Studies have shown that AXL is suitable as a tumor antigen for both diagnostic tumor markers and targeted therapies. In order to develop therapeutics against AXL-expressing tumors, high affinity anti-AXL monoclonal antibodies are highly desirable.
Antibodies to AXL were obtained by immunizing Balb/c mice (6-8 weeks old) with human AXL protein (ACROBiosystems) as immunoconjugate. One week after the third immunization, the antibody titer in serum was determined by ELISA. Mice with highest serum antibody titers were sacrificed and spleen cells were fused with mouse myeloma cells SP2/0 at a ratio of 8:1. After 10 days of incubation, hybridoma cell culture supernatants were assayed for binding activity to human AXL protein by ELISA. ELISA was performed using standard protocols. Briefly, 1 μg/mL of human AXL protein (ACRO) was coated on Corning EIA/RIA high binding 96-well plates (Corning inc.) 100 μl per well overnight at 4 ℃. mu.L of hybridoma cell culture supernatant was added and incubated at 37℃for 1 hour. Plates were washed 3 times with 0.05% PBST. Bound antibody was detected by goat anti-mouse IgG-Fc fragment cross-adsorbed antibody HRP conjugate (Bethyl). The assay was developed using TMB substrate (Solarbio) at room temperature and measured at 450nm using an enzyme-labeled instrument. By using a similar protocol, the binding activity of hybridoma cell supernatants to cynomolgus AXL protein (ACRO) and mouse AXL protein (Sino biological) was examined, respectively.
After evaluating the binding capacity of hybridoma cell culture supernatants to human, cynomolgus monkey and mouse AXL proteins, 7 monoclonal antibodies with species cross-reactivity to human and cynomolgus monkeys but no species cross-reactivity to mice (data not shown) were selected for simultaneous construction of the intact form of monoclonal antibodies (with human-murine chimeric and humanized forms) and the humanized bispecific T cell adapter (BiTE), considering that the antibodies produced by the hybridoma technique were murine in origin, which may elicit an immune response to subsequently produced anti-drug antibodies (ADA).

Bispecific T cell adaptors (bites) are a form of bispecific antibodies that direct cytotoxic T cells to kill cancer cells by binding both tumor antigen and T cell antigen (e.g., CD3 molecules on the surface of T cells). HBiTE described in PCT application No. PCT/US2018/016524 (incorporated herein by reference in its entirety) is one particular form of BiTE, in which the light chain comprises from N-terminus to C-terminus an anti-target VL domain, an anti-CD 3 VL-CL, and a monomeric human IgG1 Fc (e.g., mfc 7.2), and the heavy chain comprises from N-terminus to C-terminus an anti-target VH domain, an anti-CD 3 VH-CH1, and a monomeric human IgG1 Fc (e.g., mfc 7.2). Monomer fc7.2 contains two amino acid mutations (T366L and Y407H) that reduce Fc homodimerization. To generate axl×cd3 HBiTE, the VL and VH domains of the anti-AXL antibody are fused via a linker to the N-terminus of the VL and VH domains of the anti-CD 3 Fab, respectively. The anti-CD 3 Fab was further fused to the N-terminus of mfc 7.2. The light and heavy chains were constructed into vectors pBY for mammalian cell expression. The anti-AXL bispecific antibodies AXL-B1L-Hu1-LLG HBiTE and AXL-C5-Hu1-LLG-1.2HBiTE were successfully constructed.
For expression and purification, bispecific antibodies were expressed in 293FS or CHO-S cells. The plasmid and transfection agent PEI were mixed in a 1:3 ratio and then added dropwise to 293FS or CHO-S cell cultures. Cells continue to grow for 5-7 days after transfection. Cell cultures were harvested by centrifugation at 8000rpm for 20 minutes. The culture supernatant containing the target protein was loaded onto Protein A Sepharose Fast Flow column chromatography (GE Healthcare) and purified according to the manufacturer's instructions.
AXL-B1L-Hu1-LLG HBiTE and AXL-C5-Hu1-LLG-1.2HBiTE were well expressed in transiently transfected CHO-S cells and secreted into culture supernatant. On non-reducing SDS-PAGE, AXL-B1L-Hu1-LLG HBiTE and AXL-C5-Hu1-LLG-1.2HbiTE showed an apparent molecular weight (aMW) of about 120 kDa. On reduced SDS-PAGE, the heavy and light chains were close to each other, with an apparent molecular weight of about 62kDa (data not shown).

Example 10 in vitro T cell activation assay
T cell activation is initiated by recruitment of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR)/CD 3 complex and the co-stimulatory receptor CD 28. Co-recruitment of these receptors at the cell surface results in intracellular signaling events and activation of nuclear transcription factors such as the activating T-cell Nuclear Factor (NFAT). Specifically, recruitment of the TCR/CD3 complex results in phosphorylation and activation of PLC- γ, intracellular calcium flux, and transcriptional activation of the NFAT pathway. Thus, NFAT production can be used as a functional readout of T cell activation.
T cell activation assays were performed using the Promega T cell activation bioassay (NFAT) proliferation model (Cat. No.: J1601) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, AXL-expressing HT1080 tumor cells (5×10 3 Individual cells/100 μl/well, suspended in RPMI 1640 complete medium) were inoculatedInto 96-well plates. At the same time, anti-CD 3 bispecific antibody and 1.4X10 were added in 50. Mu.L of RPMI 1640 complete medium 5 Individual TCR/CD3 effector cells (NFAT). Then, 50. Mu.L of a 5-fold serial dilution of antibody solution (from 2. Mu.g/mL) was added to each well accordingly (the highest final concentration was 1. Mu.g/mL). After 6 hours, bio-Glo was added TM And (3) a reagent. The assay was developed for 5-10 minutes at room temperature and monitored with a plate reading photometer.
The results of the T cell activation assay showed that AXL-B1L-Hu1-LLG HBiTE can activate TCR/CD3 effector cells with an EC50 of 0.289nM (FIG. 10), indicating that AXL-B1L-Hu1-LLG HBiTE has the ability to activate T cells in vitro in the presence of target cells.
Example 11 anti-AXL bispecific antibody mediated killing against human cancer cell lines
Bispecific T cell adaptors can bind both tumor antigen and T cell antigen (e.g., CD3 molecules on the surface of T cells), causing aggregation and activation of T cells, ultimately leading to killing of tumor cells. To evaluate the killing efficiency of the bispecific antibodies AXL-B1L-Hu1-LLG HBiTE and AXL-C5-Hu1-LLG-1.2HBiTE, CCK8 assays were performed using the AXL-expressing tumor cell line HT1080 as target cell.
mu.L of the cell suspension (5X 10) 3 HT1080 cells/well, suspended in RPMI 1640 complete medium) were plated in duplicate into 96-well plates. At the same time, 1.4X10 s in 50. Mu.L of RPMI 1640 complete medium was added 5 PBMCs (effector cells: target cells ratio = 5:1). Then, 50. Mu.L of a 5-fold serial dilution of antibody solution (from 2. Mu.g/mL) was added to each well accordingly (the highest final concentration was 1. Mu.g/mL). After 48h, each well was supplemented with 100. Mu.L of 20% CCK-8 in RPMI 1640 complete medium (final concentration of 10% CCK-8) and at CO 2 Incubate in incubator for 60 min. Cell killing activity was measured using an enzyme-labeled instrument according to the manufacturer's instructions. The results are shown in fig. 11.

The EC50 of AXL-B1L-Hu1-LLG HBiTE and AXL-C5-Hu1-LLG-1.2HbiTE against HT1080 cell killing were 4.309ng/ml and 1.821ng/ml, respectively. These results demonstrate that AXL-B1L-Hu1-LLG HBiTE and AXL-C5-Hu1-LLG-1.2HBiTE have potent killing ability against AXL-expressing tumor cell line HT1080, confirming that these hbites have essentially in vitro antitumor efficacy worth further development.
Example 12 anti-AXL bispecific antibody mediated inhibition of tumor growth in mice
In vivo anti-tumor studies were performed in a humanized B-NDG mouse model to assess the efficacy of AXL-B1L-Hu1-LLG HBiTE and AXL-C5-Hu1-LLG-1.2 HBiTE. Briefly, 1.8X10 6 Personal PBMC and 1.8X10 6 Mixtures of individual HT1080 tumor cells were injected subcutaneously (s.c.) into the right armpit of B-NDG mice (5-7 weeks old, male) to create tumorigenic models. At the same time, AXL-B1L-Hu1-LLG HBiTE or AXL-C5-Hu1-LLG-1.2HbiTE (300. Mu.g/kg) or vector control was intraperitoneally injected into the corresponding mice three times per week. After treatment, tumor size was measured continuously for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks of treatment, mice were sacrificed and tumor weights were measured.
Tumor growth inhibition was calculated using the following formula:
(average body weight of control group-average body weight of antibody-treated group)/average body weight of control group.
The results showed that AXL-B1L-Hu1-LLG HBiTE showed effective inhibition of tumor growth at a dose of 300. Mu.g/kg (FIG. 12B). The 300 μg/kg dose group showed tumor growth inhibition of over 95%. AXL-C5-Hu1-LLG-1.2HBiTE also showed a tumor growth inhibition of more than 95% at a dose of 300. Mu.g/kg (FIG. 12A). In vivo studies have shown that anti-AXL bispecific antibodies AXL-B1L-Hu1-LLG HBiTE and AXL-C5-Hu1-LLG-1.2HBiTE can specifically and effectively inhibit growth of AXL-expressing tumor cells.
