Description
RELATED APPLICATIONS
The present application claims priority from the chinese application No. 202110363275.1 filed on 2/4/2021.
The application relates to an antigen binding unit capable of targeting CS1 protein and application thereof.
Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a cancer of plasma cells in bone marrow, and in general, plasma cells produce antibodies and play a key role in immune function. However, uncontrolled growth of these cells leads to bone pain and fractures, anemia, infection, and other complications. Although the exact cause of multiple myeloma is not known, multiple myeloma is the second most common hematological malignancy, accounting for 2% of all cancer deaths. MM is a heterogeneous disease and is mostly caused by chromosomal translocations of t (11; 14), t (4; 14), t (8; 14), del (13), del (17) (among others) (Drach et al, (1998) Blood 92 (3): 802-809; gertz et al, (2005) Blood 106 (8): 2837-2840; facon et al, (2001) Blood 97 (6): 1566-1571). The main pathology of Multiple Myeloma (MM) is the unlimited expansion and enrichment of plasma cells in the bone marrow, which in turn leads to osteonecrosis. MM affected patients may experience a variety of symptoms associated with disease due to psychological burden of bone marrow infiltration, bone destruction, renal failure, immunodeficiency, and cancer diagnosis. The main treatment scheme at present is chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation, wherein the chemotherapy drugs are mainly steroids, thalidomide, lenalidomide, bortezomib or a combination of a plurality of cytotoxin reagents, and the high-dose chemotherapy concept can be adopted for younger patients to match with autologous stem cell transplantation.
CS1 is a lymphocyte signaling activating molecule (seventh member of SLAM family, CD319 antigen), a member of the CD2 family of cell surface glycoproteins. Based on the high expression of CS1 in multiple myeloma, it is used as a target for the preparation of antibodies or CAR-T cells for the treatment of multiple myeloma and CS 1-positive tumors.

In the disclosure, various aspects of the claimed subject matter are presented in a range format. It should be understood that the description of the range format is merely for convenience and brevity and should not be construed as a rigid limitation on the scope of the claimed subject matter. Accordingly, the description of a range should be considered to have specifically disclosed all possible sub-ranges as well as individual values within the range. For example, where a range of values is provided, it is understood that each intervening value, to the extent that it is between the upper and lower limit of that range and any other stated or intervening value in that range is encompassed within the claimed subject matter. The upper and lower limits of these smaller ranges may independently be included in the smaller ranges is also encompassed within the claimed subject matter, subject to any specifically excluded limit in the stated range. Where a range includes one or both of the limits, the claimed subject matter also includes ranges excluding either or both of those limits. This applies regardless of the width of the range.
The term "about" as used herein refers to the usual error range for each value as readily known to those skilled in the art. Reference herein to "about" a value or parameter includes (and describes) embodiments directed to the value or parameter itself. For example, a description of "about X" includes a description of "X". For example, "about" or "comprising" may mean within 1 or more than 1 according to the actual standard deviation in the field. Or "about" or "comprising" may mean a range of up to 10% (i.e., ±10%). For example, about 5 μm may include any number between 4.5 μm and 5.5 μm.
Unless otherwise indicated, any concentration range, percentage range, ratio range, or integer range recited herein is to be understood as including any integer within the range, and where appropriate, fractions thereof (e.g., tenths and hundredths of integers) of numerical values.
For a better understanding of the application, the relevant terms are defined as follows:
the term "CS1" (also known as SLAMF7, CD319 or CRACC-NCBI reference sequence: NP-067004.3) is a lymphocyte activating molecule family member 7 that is involved in cell adhesion and NK cell activation functions, and is primarily expressed in plasma cells, NK cells, CD8+ T cells, activated B cells and mononuclear dendritic cells, but is not substantially expressed in progenitor cells of the hematopoietic lineage and other tissues of the human body. CS1 is a type I transmembrane protein, the extracellular segment consisting of serine (S) -methionine (M) at position 23, which contains the two domains Ig-like V region (23 serine S-124 valine V, distal) and Ig-like C region (131 proline P-206 serine S, proximal). Exemplary, the amino acid sequence of the extracellular portion of human SLAMF7 is set forth in SEQ ID NO:57, the amino acid sequence of the extracellular domain of murine SLAMF7 is set forth in SEQ ID NO:58, the amino acid sequence of the cynomolgus monkey SLAMF7 extracellular domain is set forth in SEQ ID NO: 59. CS1 molecules are highly expressed in Multiple Myeloma (MM) cells, and a monoclonal antibody of the CS1 molecules, namely, the ELotuzumab (huLuc 63), has good clinical results in treating patients with relapsed or refractory MM by combining an immunomodulator and a proteasome inhibitor, and has been approved by the FDA for treating MM.
The hybridoma antibody for recognizing CS1 and the humanized antibody modified by the hybridoma antibody can be used for treating multiple myeloma. The CAR-T cells containing the CS1 antibody prepared by the application can obviously kill multiple myeloma cells in vitro and in vivo. Because CS1 is expressed on NK cells, CAR-T cells comprising the application recognizing CS1 antibodies are resistant to killing of autologous or allogeneic T cells by NK cells in a host, thereby increasing the persistence and/or engraftment survival of autologous or allogeneic immune cells (e.g., CS1-CAR-T cells, CS1-UCAR-CS1-/-T cells) in the presence of host immune cells. The bispecific antibody comprising the CS1 antibody prepared by the application and the recognition T cell antibody can resist the killing of autologous or allogeneic T cells by NK cells in a host, thereby increasing the persistence and/or the transplantation survival rate of autologous or allogeneic immune cells (exemplified CS1-CAR-T cells, CS1-UCAR-CS1-/-T cells) in the presence of the host immune cells.
The terms "polypeptide", "peptide", "protein" and "protein" are used interchangeably to refer to a polymer of amino acids of any length. The polymer may be linear, cyclic or branched, it may comprise modified amino acids, in particular conservatively modified amino acids, and it may be interrupted by non-amino acids. The term also includes amino acid polymers that have been modified, for example, by sulfation, glycosylation, lipidation, acetylation, phosphorylation, iodination, methylation, oxidation, proteolytic processing, prenylation, racemization, selenoylation, transfer-RNA mediated amino addition such as argination, ubiquitination, or any other procedure such as conjugation with a labeling component. As used herein, the term "amino acid" refers to natural and/or unnatural or synthetic amino acids, including glycine as well as D or L optical isomers, as well as amino acid analogs and peptidomimetics. A polypeptide or amino acid sequence "derived from" a specified protein refers to the source of the polypeptide. The term also includes polypeptides expressed by the indicated nucleic acid sequences.
The term "antigen binding unit" refers to immunoglobulin molecules (or "antibodies") and immunologically active portions of immune molecules, i.e., molecules that contain an antigen binding site that specifically binds to an antigen ("immunoreacts"). Also included within the term "antigen binding unit" are immunoglobulin molecules of various species origin, including invertebrates and vertebrates. Structurally, the simplest naturally occurring antibodies (e.g., igG) comprise four polypeptide chains, two heavy (H) chains and two light (L) chains, which are interconnected by disulfide bonds. Immunoglobulins represent a large family of molecules including several types of molecules, such as IgD, igG, igA, igM and IgE. The term "immunoglobulin molecule" includes, for example, hybrid antibodies or altered antibodies and fragments thereof. It has been shown that the antigen binding function of antibodies can be performed by fragments of naturally occurring antibodies. These fragments are collectively referred to as "antigen binding units". Also included within the term "antigen binding unit" are any polypeptide chain-containing molecular structure having a specific shape that conforms to and recognizes an epitope, wherein one or more non-covalent binding interactions stabilize the complex between the molecular structure and the epitope. Examples of the antigen-binding unit include Fab fragments, monovalent fragments consisting of VL, VH, CL and CH1 domains, bivalent fragments (F (ab) 2 fragments) comprising two Fab fragments linked by a disulfide bridge at the hinge region; an Fd fragment consisting of VH and CH1 domains, an Fv fragment consisting of VL and VH domains of a single arm of an antibody; dAb fragments consisting of VH domains (Ward et al Nature,341:544-546,1989); and isolated Complementarity Determining Regions (CDRs) or any fusion proteins comprising such antigen binding units.
The term "antibody" is used herein in the broadest sense and includes a variety of antibody structures, including but not limited to monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), and antibody fragments so long as they exhibit the desired antigen-binding activity. The term "antibody" as used herein refers to an antigen binding protein of the immune system. The term "antibody" as referred to herein includes whole full length antibodies having an antigen binding region as well as any fragment thereof in which an "antigen binding portion" or "antigen binding region" remains, or a single chain thereof, e.g., a single chain variable fragment (scFv). "Natural antibody" refers to naturally occurring immunoglobulin molecules having a variety of structures, and refers to glycoproteins comprising at least two heavy (H) chains and two light (L) chains or antigen-binding fragments thereof, interconnected by disulfide bonds. The term "antibody" also includes all recombinant forms of antibodies (particularly the antibodies described herein), such as antibodies expressed in prokaryotic cells, non-glycosylated antibodies as well as antibody fragments that bind to an antigen and derivatives described below. Each heavy chain consists of a heavy chain variable region (abbreviated herein as VH) and a heavy chain constant region. Each light chain consists of a light chain variable region (abbreviated herein as VL) and a light chain constant region. The term "variable region or variable domain" refers to the domain of an antibody heavy or light chain that is involved in antigen binding of an antibody. VH and VL can be further subdivided into regions of hypervariability, termed Complementarity Determining Regions (CDRs), interspersed with regions that are more conserved, termed Framework Regions (FR). Each VH and VL is composed of three CDRs and four FRs, typically arranged from amino-terminus to carboxyl-terminus in the following order: FR1-HCDR1 (LCDR 1) -FR2-HCDR2 (LCDR 2) -FR3-HCDR3 (LCDR 3) -FR4. The variable regions of the heavy and light chains contain binding domains that interact with antigens. The constant region of an antibody may mediate the binding of the immunoglobulin to host tissues or factors including various cells of the immune system (e.g., effector cells) and the first component of the classical complement system (C1 q). A single VH or VL domain may be sufficient to confer antigen binding specificity. In addition, antibodies that bind a particular antigen can be isolated using a library of complementary VL or VH domains screened using VH or VL domains, respectively, from antibodies that bind the antigen. See, e.g., portolano et al, J.Immunol.150:880-887 (1993); clarkson et al Nature352:624-628 (1991).
The term "hypervariable region" or "complementarity determining region" or "CDR" refers to regions of an antibody variable domain that are hypervariable in sequence and/or form structurally defined loops ("hypervariable loops") and/or contain residues that contact an antigen ("antigen contacts"). Typically, an antibody comprises six CDRs: three of VH (HCDR 1, HCDR2, HCDR 3) and three of VL (LCDR 1, LCDR2, LCDR 3).
Antibody fragments include, but are not limited to: (i) Fab fragments consisting of VL, VH, CL and CH1 domains, including Fab 'and Fab' -SH, (ii) Fd fragments consisting of VH and CH1 domains, (iii) Fv fragments consisting of VL and VH domains of a single antibody; (iv) dAb fragments consisting of a single variable region (Ward et al 1989,Nature 341:544-546); (v) A F (ab') 2 fragment, a bivalent fragment comprising 2 linked Fab fragments; (vi) Single chain Fv molecule antigen binding sites (Bird et al 1988,Science 242:423-426; huston et al 1988, proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S. A85:5879-5883); (vii) Bispecific single chain Fv dimers (PCT/US 92/09965); (viii) "diabodies" or "trisomy", multivalent or multispecific fragments constructed by gene fusion (Tomlinson et al 2000,Methods Enzymol.326:461-479; WO94/13804; holliger et al 1993,Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.U.S.A 90:6444-6448); and (ix) scFv genetically fused to the same or different antibodies (Coloma & Morrison,1997,Nature Biotechnology 15,159-163).
"class" of antibodies refers to the type of constant domain or constant region that the heavy chain has. There are five main classes of antibodies: igA, igD, igE, igG and IgM, and some of these can be further divided into subclasses (allotypes), for example, igG1, igG2, igG3, igG4, igA1, and IgA2. The heavy chain constant domains corresponding to different types of immunoglobulins are called α, δ, ε, γ, and μ, respectively.
The term "Fc" or "Fc region" is used to define the C-terminal region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain that contains at least a portion of a constant region. The term includes native sequence Fc regions and variant Fc regions.
Unless otherwise indicated herein, CDR residues and other residues in the variable domain (e.g., FR residues) are numbered according to Kabat et al above.
The terms "fully anti," "full length antibody," "intact antibody" are used interchangeably to refer to a full length antibody having a structure substantially similar to the structure of a native antibody or having a heavy chain comprising an Fc region as defined herein or including an intact full length antibody having an antigen binding region. In particular embodiments, the application provides full length antibodies, the heavy and light chains of which may be full length (e.g., an antibody may comprise at least one, preferably two, complete heavy chains, and at least one, preferably two, complete light chains) or may comprise an antigen binding portion (Fab, F (ab') 2, fv, or scFv). In other embodiments, the antibody heavy chain constant region is selected from, for example, igG1, igG2, igG3, igG4, igM, igA1, igA2, igD, and IgE. The choice of antibody type will depend on the immune effector function the antibody is designed to elicit. In constructing recombinant immunoglobulins, suitable amino acid sequences for the constant regions of the various immunoglobulin isotypes and methods for producing a wide variety of antibodies are known to those skilled in the art.
The term "scFv" refers to a fusion protein comprising at least one antibody fragment comprising a variable region of a light chain and at least one antibody fragment comprising a variable region of a heavy chain, wherein the light and heavy chain variable regions are contiguous (e.g., via a synthetic linker such as a short flexible polypeptide linker),and can be expressed as a single chain polypeptide, and wherein the scFv retains the specificity of the intact antibody from which it is derived. Unless specified, as used herein, an scFv may have the VL and VH variable regions described in any order (e.g., with respect to the N-terminus and C-terminus of the polypeptide), an scFv may comprise a VL-linker-VH or may comprise a VH-linker-VL. In some embodiments, flexible amino acids (G4S) are introduced against the VH and VL fragments of the antibody 3 As a linker, a single chain variable fragment (scFv) is composed, the amino acid sequence of which confers specificity to the molecule for CS1 and forms the basis of the overall antigen binding unit of the application. Thus, the scFv can be used to design a range of different "antibody" molecules, including, for example, full length antibodies, fragments thereof such as Fab and F (ab') 2, scFv, fusion proteins (including scFv_Fc), multivalent antibodies, i.e., antibodies having more than one specificity for the same antigen or different antigens, e.g., bispecific T cell binding antibodies (BiTE), tri-antibodies, etc. (Cuesta et al, multivalent antibodies: when design surpasses evolution, trends in Biotechnology 28:355-362,2010). In some embodiments, the application includes antibodies having scFv sequences fused to one or more heavy chain constant regions to form antibodies having a human or murine immunoglobulin Fc region to produce bivalent proteins, thereby increasing the overall affinity and stability of the antibodies. In addition, the Fc portion allows direct conjugation of other molecules (including but not limited to fluorochromes, cytotoxins, radioisotopes, etc.) to antibodies, for example, for use in antigen quantification studies, in order to immobilize the antibodies for affinity measurement, for targeted delivery of therapeutic agents, testing Fc-mediated cytotoxicity using immune effector cells, and many other applications.
The term "single domain antibody (Single domain antibody, sdAb)" refers to a class of antibodies that lack the light chain and only the heavy chain variable region of the antibody, also known as nanobodies (nanobodies) due to their small molecular weight.
The term "single domain antibody" refers to a heavy chain variable domain comprising all or part of an antibody or all or part of a light chain variable domain. In certain embodiments, the single domain antibody is a human single domain antibody (domntis, inc., waltham, MA; see, e.g., U.S. patent No. 6248516).
The terms "monoclonal antibody", "mab" refer to an antibody obtained from a population of substantially homologous antibodies, i.e., individual antibodies comprising the population are identical and/or bind to identical epitopes, except for possible variant antibodies, e.g., comprising naturally occurring mutations or produced during the preparation of monoclonal antibody preparations, such variants typically being present in minor amounts. In contrast to polyclonal antibody preparations (which typically include different antibodies directed against different determinants (epitopes)), each monoclonal antibody in a monoclonal antibody preparation is directed against a single determinant on the antigen. Thus, reference to "monoclonal" indicates the nature of the antibody as being obtained from a substantially homogeneous population of antibodies, and is not to be construed as requiring preparation of the antibody by any particular method. For example, it can be prepared by a variety of techniques including, but not limited to, hybridoma methods, recombinant DNA methods, phage display methods, and methods utilizing transgenic animals containing all or part of the human immunoglobulin loci.
For example, monoclonal antibodies of the application can be produced by a hybridoma method, which can be formed by isolating stimulated immune cells such as those from the spleen of an vaccinated animal. These cells (such as myeloma cells or transformed cells) can then be fused with immortalized cells, which are capable of unlimited replication in cell culture, thereby producing an immortalized, immunoglobulin-secreting cell line. The immortalized cell lines utilized are selected (whether they lack the enzymes necessary for the utilization of certain nutrients). Many such cell lines (such as myeloma) are known to those skilled in the art and include, for example: thymidine Kinase (TK) or hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT). These drawbacks allow: fusion cells are selected for their ability to grow on, for example, hypoxanthine aminopterin thymidine medium (HAT). Illustratively, the present application screens for 3 hybridoma antibodies 32a12, 37A3, 48G9 that bind hSLAMF 7.
The term "chimeric antibody" refers to an antibody in which a portion of the heavy and/or light chain of the antibody is derived from a particular source or species, while the remainder of the heavy and/or light chain is derived from a different source or species. In certain embodiments, the chimeric antibody comprises a non-human variable region (e.g., a variable region derived from a mouse, rat, hamster, rabbit, or non-human primate such as a monkey) and a human constant region. In further embodiments, the chimeric antibody is a "type-switching" antibody, wherein the type or subclass has been altered from that of the parent antibody. Chimeric antibodies include antigen-binding fragments thereof. In certain embodiments, the chimeric antibody is a "humanized antibody".
The term "humanized" as used in connection with non-human antibodies, e.g., rodents or primates, is a hybrid immunoglobulin, immunoglobulin chain or fragment thereof, that contains minimal sequences derived from a non-human immunoglobulin. "humanized antibody" refers to a chimeric antibody comprising amino acid residues from a non-human CDR and amino acid residues from a human FR. In certain embodiments, the humanized antibody will comprise substantially all of at least one (and typically two) variable domain, in which all or substantially all of the CDRs correspond to those of a non-human antibody and all or substantially all of the FRs correspond to those of a human antibody. The humanized antibody optionally may comprise at least a portion of an antibody constant region derived from a human antibody. In some embodiments, a "humanized antibody" may include mutations, such as mutations introduced by random or site-directed mutagenesis in vitro or by somatic mutation in vivo. Exemplary, the present application humanizes hybridoma antibodies 32a12, 37A3, 48G9 by CDR grafting to obtain hu32a12, hu37A3, hu48G9.
The term "parent antibody" or "parent immunoglobulin" includes unmodified antibodies which are then modified to produce variants. The parent antibody may be a naturally occurring antibody, or a variant or engineered version of a naturally occurring antibody. A parent antibody may refer to the antibody itself, a composition comprising said parent antibody, or an amino acid sequence encoding thereof. The term "parent antibody" or "parent immunoglobulin" as used herein includes murine or chimeric antibodies that have been modified to produce humanized antibodies.
The term "variant antibody" or "antibody variant" includes antibody sequences that differ from the parent antibody sequence by at least one amino acid modification compared to the parent. Variant antibody sequences herein preferably have at least about 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% amino acid sequence identity to the parent antibody sequence. An antibody variant may refer to the antibody itself, a composition comprising said parent antibody, or an amino acid sequence encoding the same. Amino acid sequence variants of antibodies can be prepared by introducing appropriate modifications to the nucleotide sequence encoding the antibody or by peptide synthesis.
The term "amino acid modification" includes amino acid substitutions, additions and/or deletions, "amino acid substitutions" means the replacement of an amino acid at a particular position in a parent polypeptide sequence with another amino acid. "amino acid insertion" means the addition of an amino acid at a particular position in the parent polypeptide sequence. As used herein, "amino acid deletion" or "deletion" means the removal of an amino acid at a particular position in a parent polypeptide sequence. Any combination of deletions, insertions, and substitutions may be made to obtain the final construct, provided that the final construct has the desired characteristics, such as: binding to the antigen.
The term "modification" refers to a change in the state or structure of a protein or polypeptide of the application. The manner of modification may be chemical, structural and functional.
The term "conservative modification" or "conservative sequence modification" means an amino acid modification that does not significantly affect or alter the binding characteristics of an antibody that contains the amino acid sequence. Such conservative modifications include amino acid substitutions, insertions, and deletions. Modifications may be introduced into the antibodies of the application by standard techniques known in the art, such as site-directed mutagenesis and PCR-mediated mutagenesis. Conservative amino acid substitutions are substitutions that replace an amino acid residue with an amino acid residue having a similar side chain. Families of amino acid residues with similar side chains have been defined in the art. These families include amino acids containing basic side chains (e.g., lysine, arginine, histidine), acidic side chains (e.g., aspartic acid, glutamic acid), uncharged acute side chains (e.g., glycine, asparagine, serine, threonine, tyrosine, cysteine, tryptophan), nonpolar side chains (e.g., alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, methionine), beta-branched side chains (e.g., threonine, valine, isoleucine) and aromatic side chains (e.g., tyrosine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, histidine). Thus, one or more amino acid residues in the CDR regions or in the framework regions of the antibodies of the application may be replaced with other amino acid residues of the same side chain family, and the altered antibodies (variant antibodies) may be tested for retained function.
All immunoglobulin heavy chain constant region positions discussed in this application are numbered according to the EU index of Kabat (Kabat et al, 1991,sequences of proteins of immunological interest, 5 th edition, united States Public Health Service, national Institutes of Health, bethesda, incorporated by reference in its entirety). The "EU index of Kabat" refers to the residue numbering of the human IgG1 EU antibody, as described by Edelman et al, 1969,Biochemistry 63:78-85.
The terms "anti-CS 1 antibody", "CS 1-recognizing antibody" refer to an antibody capable of binding CS1 with sufficient affinity, which can be used as a diagnostic and/or therapeutic agent for targeting CS1. In one embodiment, the anti-CS 1 antibody binds to less than about 10% of the non-CS 1 protein to which it is not associated, as determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In some embodiments, the antigen binding units of the application that target CS1 bind to an Ig-like V-type domain distal to the extracellular domain of hCS1, or a membrane-proximal Ig-like C2-type domain of the extracellular domain.
In the present application, it is described that hybridoma antibodies are obtained by immunizing mice with the immunogen hSLAMF7-avi-His recombinant protein using techniques conventional in the art for hybridoma antibody preparation. Humanized modification is also carried out on the hybridoma antibody by a CDR grafting method to obtain the humanized antibody. These molecules exhibit specificity. In specific embodiments, the antibody recognizes CS1 protein. Illustratively, the CS1 antibody recognizes CS 1-expressing cells, e.g., tumor cells MM.1S cells, RPMI 8226 cells, NCI-H929 cells, NK cells. In specific embodiments, the CS1 antibody does not recognize CS1 negative cells, e.g., HEK293, WI38 cells. In the present application, CS1 herein refers to CS1 of a human, CS1 of a mouse or CS1 of a monkey unless otherwise specified.
The results presented herein highlight the specificity, sensitivity and utility of the antibodies of the application in targeting CS 1.
The present application provides an antigen binding unit that recognizes CS1 comprising an amino acid sequence comprising SEQ ID NO:3, 13, 23, and/or a heavy chain CDR1 comprising any one of the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NO:4, 14, 24, 32, and/or a heavy chain CDR2 comprising any one of the amino acid sequences of SEQ ID NOs: 5, 15, 25, 41.

In another aspect, the application provides an antigen binding unit that recognizes CS1, comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 6, 16, 26, 34, 38 or 43.
Considering that each of these heavy and light chain variable region sequences can recognize CS1, the heavy and light chain variable region sequences can be "mixed and matched" to produce an anti-CS 1 binding molecule of the application.
In another aspect, the application provides an antigen binding unit that recognizes CS1 comprising a polypeptide selected from the group consisting of a heavy chain variable region having SEQ ID NO:1 and the light chain variable region of the antigen binding unit has the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:6, an amino acid sequence shown in figure 6; the heavy chain variable region has the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:11 and the light chain variable region of the antigen binding unit has the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:16, and a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence shown in seq id no; the heavy chain variable region has the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:21 and the light chain variable region of the antigen binding unit has the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:26, and a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence shown in seq id no; the heavy chain variable region has the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:31 and the light chain variable region of the antigen binding unit has the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:34, and a nucleotide sequence shown in seq id no; the heavy chain variable region has the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:36 and the light chain variable region of the antigen binding unit has the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:38, and a nucleotide sequence shown in seq id no; the heavy chain variable region has the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:40 and the light chain variable region of the antigen binding unit has the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 43.

The variant can be obtained by taking the antibody as a female parent antibody through methods such as yeast library screening, phage library screening, point mutation and the like.
In another aspect, the application provides an antigen binding unit that recognizes the same epitope as the aforementioned antigen binding unit against CS 1; or binding to the Ig-like V-type domain of CS 1; or Ig-like C2-type domain binding CS 1. The antigen binding units for recognizing CS1 can specifically bind CS1 positive cells and not CS1 negative cells, and show good therapeutic potential. The scFv of the antigen binding unit of the partial recognition CS1 is stable in structure and is not easy to aggregate.
In another aspect, the application provides an antigen binding unit that recognizes CS1, which is a hybridoma, humanized, chimeric, or fully human antibody; or the antigen binding unit is a monoclonal antibody; or the antigen binding unit is a full anti, scFv, single domain antibody, fv fragment, fab 'fragment, (Fab') 2 fragment, dAb fragment or multifunctional antibody.
The anti-CS 1 antibodies provided herein may be identified, screened, or characterized for physical/chemical properties and/or biological activity by a variety of assays known in the art. Including, for example, ELISA, biacore, microplate reader and flow cytometer analyses. Suitable assays are described in detail in the examples.
The term "antigen" refers to a substance that is recognized and specifically bound by an antigen binding unit. Antigens may include peptides, proteins, glycoproteins, polysaccharides, and lipids, portions thereof, and combinations thereof. Non-limiting exemplary antigens include tumor antigens or pathogen antigens. An "antigen" may also refer to a molecule that initiates an immune response. Such an immune response may involve antibody production or activation of specific immunocompetent cells (or both). Those skilled in the art will appreciate that any macromolecule, including virtually all proteins or peptides, may be used as an antigen. Antigens useful in the present application include human, mouse, monkey SLAMF7 recombinant proteins.
The term "affinity" refers to the sum of the forces of non-covalent interactions between a single binding site of a molecule (e.g., an antibody) and its binding ligand (e.g., an antigen). As used herein, unless otherwise indicated, "binding affinity" refers to an inherent binding affinity that reflects a reaction between members of a binding pair (e.g., antibodies and antigens) of 1:1 interact. The affinity of a molecule X for its ligand Y can generally be represented by a dissociation constant (Kd). Affinity can be measured by conventional methods known in the art, including the determination of affinity of antibodies using Biacore as described herein. The "affinity" of an antibody herein for CS1 is expressed as the KD of the antibody. The KD of an antibody refers to the equilibrium dissociation constant of the antibody-antigen interaction. The greater the KD value of an antibody to its antigen, the weaker its binding affinity for that particular antigen. Illustratively, the present application measures the affinity of CS1 antibodies to SLAMF7 recombinant proteins of different species (exemplified, human, mouse, monkey) with KD values ranging from 940pM to 107nM.
The term "EC50" refers to the concentration that gives 50% of the maximum effect concentration (concentration for 50%of maximal effect,EC50). The application detects the EC50 value of CS1 antibody and recombinant protein hSLAMF7-avi-His by ELISA method, which is in the range of 0.01-0.058 mug/ml; EC50 values of CS1 antibody and CS1 positive cells MM.1S cells were measured with a flow cytometer and ranged from 0.05-1.76. Mu.g/ml.
In some embodiments, the application also detects binding of CS1 antibodies to CS1 of different species (exemplified, human, mouse, monkey) using a microplate reader, both antibodies bind to human CS1, not to mouse CS1, and antibodies 37A3 and 48G9 also bind to monkey CS1.
The term "epitope" is also known as an "epitope," or "epitope" or "antigenic determinant," and includes any determinant or region capable of being bound by an antibody. An epitope is a region of an antigen that is bound by an antibody that targets the antigen, including specific amino acids that are in direct contact with the antibody. For example, an epitope may consist of a contiguous sequence of the CS1 protein sequence, or may consist of a discontinuous three-dimensional structure of the CS1 protein sequence. Illustratively, the antigen used herein is CS1 in a human, murine, or monkey. According to the application, the binding epitope of the CS1 antibody and the human CS1 is analyzed to obtain the Ig-like V-type structural domain of the binding epitope of the human CS1, and the far membrane end; or at the Ig-like C2-type domain, proximal to the membrane, of human CS1.
The application also provides immunoconjugates comprising the antibodies described herein, and functional molecules linked thereto. The antibody and the functional molecule can form a conjugate through covalent connection, coupling, adhesion, crosslinking and the like.
The functional molecule is selected from: molecules targeting tumor surface markers, molecules inhibiting tumors, molecules targeting surface markers of immune cells or detectable markers. In some embodiments, the molecule that targets a surface marker of an immune cell is an antigen binding unit (e.g., an antibody) that binds to a surface marker of a T cell, which forms a bifunctional antigen binding unit (e.g., a bifunctional antibody) with which the T cell participates.
The terms "connected" or "fused" are used interchangeably herein. These terms refer to the joining together of two or more chemical elements or components by any means including chemical conjugation or recombinant means. "in-frame fusion" refers to joining two or more Open Reading Frames (ORFs) to form a continuous longer ORF in a manner that maintains the correct reading frame of the original ORF. Thus, the resulting recombinant fusion protein is a single protein containing two or more fragments corresponding to the polypeptide encoded by the original ORF (these fragments are not typically so linked in nature). Although the reading frames are thus contiguous throughout the fusion fragment, the fragments may be physically or spatially separated by, for example, in-frame joining sequences (e.g., "flexon").
In another aspect, the application provides a nucleic acid molecule encoding at least one antibody, functional variant or immunoconjugate of the application. Once the relevant sequences are obtained, recombinant methods can be used to obtain the relevant sequences in large quantities.

The results show that: the CAR T cell CAR positive rates formed by antibodies hu32a12, hu37A3, hu48G9 were superior to the control antibody huluc63 (fig. 19), and were very stable with the positive rates remaining substantially unchanged over 5-11 days of culture (fig. 20).
Example 17: cytotoxicity assays for CS1 CAR T cells
The killing effect of CS1 CAR-T cells on tumor cell lines in vitro was examined by Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) method. By CytoToxNon-Radioactive Cytotoxicity Assay kit (Promega, G1780) for detection of cytotoxicity, specific procedures are described in the kit instructions.
Target cells: CS 1-expressing multiple myeloma cells MM.1S, NCl-H929, RPMI-8226 and HEK293 cells that do not express CS 1.
Effector cells: UTD (non-virus infected T cells), hu32a12 BBz CAR-T cells, hu37A3 BBz CAR-T cells, hu48G9 BBz CAR-T cells, huLuc63 BBz CAR-T cells, luc90 BBz CAR-T cells.
Effector cells and target cells (10000 cells/well) were sequentially plated into 96-well plates (200ul 1640+10%FBS system per well) at 37℃and 5% CO at an effective target ratio of 3:1,1:1,1:3, respectively 2 The following co-cultivation was performed for 16 hours while spontaneous release wells and maximum release wells were set according to the instructions. First, the20 μl of lysate was added to the maximum release wells for the next day and reacted for 30 minutes. Then, 50. Mu.l of the culture supernatant was removed from each well, and 50. Mu.l of the substrate was added thereto, and incubated at room temperature for 25 minutes in the absence of light, and 50. Mu.l of the stop solution was added thereto to terminate the reaction, and the absorbance peak at OD490/650nm of each well was detected by an ELISA reader.
The kill rate was calculated according to the following formula:
cytotoxicity% = [ experimental group LDH release amount (avg.) -effector cell spontaneous LDH release amount (avg.) -target cell spontaneous LDH release amount (avg.) ]/[ target cell maximum LDH release amount (avg.) -target cell spontaneous LDH release amount (avg.) -volume calibration (avg.) ] ×100%
The results show that: the hu32A12 BBz CAR-T cells, the hu37A3 BBz CAR-T cells and the hu48G9 BBz CAR-T cells have obvious in-vitro killing effect on target cells expressing CS1, and have obvious dose-response relation with the effective target ratio. For HEK293 cells that did not express CS1, CS1 CAR T had little killing effect at different potency target ratios (fig. 21). It is demonstrated that hu32A12 BBz CAR-T cells, hu37A3 BBz CAR-T cells and hu48G9 BBz CAR-T cells can specifically recognize and kill CS1 positive tumor cells.
Example 18: CS1 CAR T cell in vitro induced cytokine release experiment
The hu32A12 BBz CAR-T cells, hu37A3 BBz CAR-T cells, hu48G9 BBz CAR-T cells, huLuc63 BBz CAR-T cells, luc90 BBz CAR-T cells of example 17 were further examined for cytokine secretion under target cell stimulation.
Supernatants of hu32A12 BBz CAR-T cells, hu37A3 BBz CAR-T cells, hu48G9 BBz CAR-T cells, huLuc63 BBz CAR-T cells, luc90 BBz CAR-T cells and tumor cells of example 17 were collected and incubated as BD TM The CBA kit (BD Pharmingen Co.) was used for cytokine detection.
The results show that: secretion of cytokine IFN-gamma: after hu32A12 BBz CAR-T cells, hu37A3 BBz CAR-T cells, hu48G9 BBz CAR-T cells, huLuc63 BBz CAR-T cells, luc90 BBz CAR-T cells were co-incubated with MM.1S cells, secretion of IFN-gamma cytokines was activated and a dose-response relationship was exhibited with the effective target ratio (FIG. 22).
Secretion of the cytokine TNF- α: secretion of each CS1 CAR-T TNF- α was significantly enhanced after co-incubation of hu32A12 BBz CAR-T cells, hu37A3 BBz CAR-T cells, hu48G9 BBz CAR-T cells, huLuc63 BBz CAR-T cells, luc90 BBz CAR-T cells with MM.1S cells (FIG. 23). After co-incubation with HEK293 cells not expressing CS1, none of the CS1 CAR T had significant TNF- α secretion, indicating that it did not produce non-specific TNF- α cytokine secretion.
Secretion of cytokine IL-2: after co-incubation of hu32A12 BBz CAR-T cells, hu37A3 BBz CAR-T cells, hu48G9 BBz CAR-T cells, huLuc63 BBz CAR-T cells, luc90 BBz CAR-T cells with MM.1S cells, the secretion of IL-2 correlated inversely with the effective target ratio, which was likely related to the consumption of IL-2 by T cell proliferation, the lower the effective target ratio, the higher the concentration of IL-2 (FIG. 24). After co-incubation with HEK293 cells not expressing CS1, no significant IL-2 secretion was seen for each CS1 CAR-T, indicating that no non-specific IL-2 secretion was generated after co-incubation of CS1 CAR-T with CS1 negative cells.
Example 19: effect of soluble CS1 protein on in vitro cytotoxic killing of CS1 CAR T cells
In clinical studies, soluble CS1 protein was found to be present in patients with Multiple Myeloma (MM), and literature (Marko Ishibashi, 2018) indicated that the concentration of soluble CS1 in the serum of MM patients was mostly 0.091-14.7ng/mL. Therefore, we detected the effect of CAR-T cytotoxic killing by CS1 CAR by adding different concentrations of recombinantly expressed CS1 protein (0, 1, 10, 100 ng/mL) immediately after the addition of effector and target cells, based on the detection of CAR-T cytotoxic killing by LDH method of example 17.
The results showed that the killing effect of CS1 CAR-T cells on target cells did not significantly change with increasing concentration of soluble CS1 protein (fig. 25), indicating that soluble CS1 did not affect CS1 CAR-T cytotoxic killing in vitro.
Example 20: determination of expression of depletion markers of CS1 CAR T cells stimulated by target antigen
Detection of CS1 CAR-T by flow after stimulation with target antigen CS 1-positive multiple myeloma cell line NCl-H929, markers PD-1, TIM-3 were depletedExpression of LAG-3. The specific process is as follows: CS 1-positive multiple myeloma cell line NCl-H929 (50000 cells/well, 500. Mu.l/well) was added to each CS1 CAR-T (50000 cells/well, 500. Mu.l/well) in 48-well cell culture plates, and UTD (non-CAR transfected T cells) was set up simultaneously as a control. At 37℃with 5% CO 2 And (5) standing and culturing in an incubator for 48 hours. Cells were harvested by centrifugation of 48-well plates. Cells were washed and transferred to 96-well plates. Two groups were separated, one group was added with 50. Mu.l/well PD-1 (BD HorizonTM, 562516)/TIM-3 (BD PharmingenTM, 563422)/CD 3 (Invitrogen, 17-0028-42), and the other group was added with LAG-3 (BD HorizonTM, 565720)/CD 3 (BD, 1:100, diluted with FACS buffer) antibody mix solution, and incubated at 4℃for 30 minutes in the absence of light.
Cells were washed, resuspended in 300 μl FACS buffer for each sample, and detected by flow cytometry.
The results show that: depletion marker PD-1: expression of each CS1 CAR-T PD-1 was significantly up-regulated after target cell stimulation compared to UTD, with the provided PD-1 expression levels of CS1-CAR T of the application being lower than the PD-1 expression levels of control luc90 CAR T (fig. 26).
Depletion of marker Tim-3 expression of each CS1 CAR-T Tim-3 was significantly up-regulated after stimulation with target cells compared to UTD, wherein the levels of Tim-3 expression of CS1-CAR T provided by the present application were lower than control luc90 CAR T (fig. 27).
Depletion marker LAG-3: expression of each CS1 CAR-T LAG-3 was significantly up-regulated after target cell stimulation compared to UTD, with levels of LAG-3 expression of hu37A3 CAR-T and hu48G9 CAR-T being lower than control luc90 CAR T (FIG. 28).
Taken together, CS1 CAR-T had weak expression of the hu32a12 CAR-T, hu37A3 CAR-T, hu48G9 CAR-T group depletion markers following stimulation by target antigen CS1 positive multiple myeloma cells. Indicating that hu32A12 CAR-T, hu37A3 CAR-T, hu48G9 CAR-T less entered the depleted state after incubation with tumor cells.
Example 21: CS1 CAR-T CD 3-zeta phosphorylation autoactivation (TONIC signaling) study
Detecting the phosphorylation proportion of CD 3-zeta in CS1 CAR-T cell by using a conventional molecular biology technology Western-blot method, and judging the activation condition of an antigen independent signal transduction pathway.
Taking cell lysate to carry out SDS gel electrophoresis, membrane transfer and sealing. Antibody staining: after overnight washing with CD 3-zeta and p-CD 3-zeta antibody solutions incubated with membranes, goat anti-mouse-HRP secondary antibody (1:5000) was incubated, and chemiluminescent and light exposure assays were performed after 1 hour at room temperature (FIG. 29). The results (fig. 29) demonstrate that, when hu32a12 CAR-T cells, hu37A3 CAR-T cells, hu48G9 CAR-T cells were routinely cultured in vitro to day 9, the extent of CD3- ζ phosphorylation was significantly weaker than the control huluc63 CAR T cells and luc90 CAR T cells, indicating that hu32a12 CAR-T cells, hu37A3 CAR-T cells, hu48G9 CAR-T cells had fewer self-activation during in vitro culture without target cell stimulation. It is predicted that the self-depletion of hu32A12 CAR-T cells, hu37A3 CAR-T cells, hu48G9 CAR-T cells is less.
Example 22: measurement of IL-6 secretion after Co-incubation of CS1 CAR T cells with monocytes and tumor cells
Co-culturing CS1 CAR-T with monocytes and CS1 positive multiple myeloma cells NCl-H929 at a ratio of cell number ratio of 1:1:1 for 48 hr, collecting culture supernatant, and using BD TM The CBA kit performs cytokine detection according to the instructions.
The results are shown in FIG. 30, where the cytokine IL-6 was secreted after incubation of CAR-T with monocytes and target cells. hu32A12 CAR-T, hu37A3 CAR-T, hu48G9 CAR-T cells secreted less IL-6.
Example 23: CS1 CAR T cell in vitro specific amplification test
The experiment uses T cells transduced with CS1-CAR and T cells not transduced with CAR (UTD) as effector cells, and the effector cells are respectively incubated with CS1 positive target cells MM.1S, NCl-H929, RPMI-8226 cells and CS1 negative target cells HEK293, wherein the effective target ratio is 2:1. the total cell number was then counted every three days and examined for CD3 positive rate and PI staining activity for 9 days.
The results showed that when huIL-2 was not added to the culture medium, hu37A3 CAR-T, hu48G9 CAR-T, huluc63 CAR-T, luc90 CAR-T showed significant specific proliferation of CAR-T cells (FIG. 31) and significant increase in the viability of CAR-T cells (PI staining identification) after co-incubation with CS1 positive target cells, respectively (FIG. 32). At the same time, UTD cells proliferated slowly after co-incubation with all target cells (fig. 33). In the positive control group with 300IU/mL huIL-2 added in the culture medium and no target cells, UTD, hu37A3 CAR-T and hu48G9 CAR-T cells all had sustained proliferation, and the activity rate was maintained at 90% or more (FIG. 34).
The results show that hu37A3 CAR-T, hu48G9 CAR-T cells produced significant specific proliferation after co-incubation with CS1 positive multiple myeloma cells.
