Description

CD138 antibody and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a CD138 antibody and application thereof.
Background
Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a malignant disease (Kumar, s.k., et al, multiple myela. Nat Rev Dis Primers, 2017.3:p.17046) with abnormal proliferation of clonal plasma cells, and common symptoms include increased blood calcium, renal cell damage, anemia, bone disease, and secondary amyloidosis. With the continuous advent of new drugs and the improvement of detection means, the diagnosis and treatment of MM have been continuously improved and perfected. Although the treatment of new drugs has increased protease inhibitors (bortezomib), immunomodulatory drugs (lenalidomide, pomalidomide) and monoclonal antibodies (up to Lei Tuoyou mab) (Chim, c.s., et al Management of relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma: novel agents, anti-ibodies, immunotherapies and beyond. Leukemia,2018.32 (2): p.252-262.), there is still resistance to most patients, with a potential risk of relapse. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop a new tolerogenic immunotherapeutic approach to treat early stage MMs and further improve patient quality of life.
CD138 (Syndecan-1, SDC 1) is one of the transmembrane proteins in the family of multimeric proteoglycans, is mainly expressed on plasma cells in the blood system, is a marker antigen of plasma cells, and is highly expressed on the surface of Multiple Myeloma (MM) cells (Ren, Z., et al, syndecan-1 proteins Wnt/beta-catenin signaling in multiple myeloma by presenting Wnts and R-spondins. Blood,2018.131 (9): p.982-994.). Meanwhile, CD138 can mediate cell adhesion through interaction with a heparan binding molecule, and is involved in cell proliferation, migration and cytoskeletal organization (Beauvais, D.M., et al, syndecan-1 (CD 138) Suppresses Apoptosis in Multiple Myeloma by Activating IGF1 Receptor: prevention by SynstatinIGF R inhibitors Tumor growth. Cancer Res,2016.76 (17): p.4981-93; khotskaya, Y.B., et al, syndecan-1is required for robust growth,vascularization,and metastasis of myeloma tumors in vivo.J Biol Chem,2009.284 (38): p.26085-95). CD138 expression is closely related to the occurrence and development of diseases (Aref, S., T.Goda, and M.El-Shermanny, syndecan-1in multiple myeloma:relationship to conventional prognostic factors.Hematology,2003.8 (4): p.221-8.), so that CD138 can be used as a brand-new target hopefully becoming the field of MM tumor treatment, thereby developing anti-CD 138-based antibody immunotherapy and providing a new idea for MM patient treatment.
There are many therapeutic drugs developed against the CD138 target, BT062 developed by Biotest (CD 138 antibody-drug conjugate in murine/human chimeric form), ADC drugs against the CD138 target currently in clinical trials in the second phase, used in combination with lenalidomide (lenalidomide), with a response rate up to 83% in MM patients and with reasonable safety (Jagannath, s., et al, indatuximab Ravtansine (BT 062) Monotherapy in Patients With Relapsed and/or Refractory Multiple myela. Clin Lymphoma Myeloma Leuk,2019.19 (6): p.372-380; kelly, k.r., et al, indatuximab ravtansine plus dexamethasone with lenalidomide or pomalidomide in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma: a multiccent, phase 1/2a study.Lancet Haematol,2021.8 (11): p.e794-e 807). The lyenberg comprehensive cancer center picks up the baton of BT062, and converts the treatment means: CD138-CAR molecules were developed using single chain variable fragment (scFv) sequences derived from BT062 chimeric antibodies, CD 138-based CAR-T cells showed significant anti-MM activity both in vitro and in vivo in preclinical studies, and had no cytotoxic effect on normal epithelial or endothelial cells (Sun, c., et al, safety and efficacy of targeting CD138 with a chimeric antigen receptor for the treatment of multiple myela. Oncotarget,2019.10 (24): p.2369-2383.). Recently, the Jerome Lipper multiple myeloma center reported a novel monoclonal antibody VIS832 targeting CD138 that was effective in inducing killing of human multiple myeloma and further synergistically acting with lenalidomide or bortezomib to deplete MM cells in vitro and in vivo (Yu, t., et al, VIS832, a-novel CD138-targeting monoclonal antibody, potently induces killing of human multiple myeloma and further synergizes with IMiDs or bortezomib in vitro and in vivo.blood Cancer J,2020.10 (11): p.110.). Compared to BT062, VIS832 binds more strongly to all MM cell lines, mainly because the epitope recognized by VIS832 is the membrane proximal region of CD138, which targeted binding confers higher target binding and enhanced Fc effector function, resulting in improved immune synapse formation, ultimately leading to stronger MM targeting and excellent cytotoxicity.
In general, the patentability of CD138 antibodies is not known to a great extent, and at the same time, VIS832 cases also reveal that the screening of specific antibodies against different antigenic determinants is also an important consideration, so the search for more effective antibodies is still the key point of current research and development.
Thus, there remains a need in the art to develop a CD138 antibody that has high affinity and high specificity.

Detailed Description
The present inventors have conducted extensive and intensive studies and, as a result of extensive screening, have unexpectedly obtained CD138 antibodies having excellent affinity and specificity. The antibodies of the invention are capable of binding to CD138 antigen with high specificity. Experimental results show that the chimeric antibody 103E11 provided by the invention has better antigen recognition capability on myeloma cells than BB4 and slightly better antigen CD138 binding capability than 4320 antibody binding capability. On this basis, the present inventors have completed the present invention.
Terminology
As used herein, the term "conjugate" refers to a soluble receptor or fragment or analog thereof, or an antibody or fragment or analog thereof, that is capable of binding to a target. The term "CD138 conjugate" as used herein refers to an antibody or fragment or analog thereof that specifically recognizes CD138 and binds to CD138 antigen.
In order that the invention may be more readily understood, certain technical and scientific terms are defined below. Unless defined otherwise herein, all other technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. Before describing the present invention, it is to be understood that this invention is not limited to the particular methodology and experimental conditions described, as such methods and conditions may vary. It is also to be understood that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only, and is not intended to be limiting, as the scope of the present invention will be limited only by the appended claims.
Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. As used herein, when used in reference to a specifically recited value, the term "about" means that the value can vary no more than 1% from the recited value. For example, as used herein, the expression "about 100" includes 99 and 101 and all values therebetween (e.g., 99.1, 99.2, 99.3, 99.4, etc.).
As used herein, the term "optional" or "optionally" means that the subsequently described event or circumstance may, but need not, occur. For example, "optionally comprising 1-3 antibody heavy chain variable regions" means that there may be, but need not be, 1, 2, or 3 antibody heavy chain variable regions of a particular sequence.
CD138
CD138 (Syndecan-1, SDC 1) is one of the transmembrane proteins in the family of multimeric proteoglycans, and is mainly expressed on plasma cells in the blood system, is a marker antigen of plasma cells, and is highly expressed on the cell surface of Multiple Myeloma (MM).
Antibodies to
As used herein, the term "antibody" refers to an immunoglobulin that is a tetrapeptide chain structure formed from two identical heavy chains and two identical light chains joined by an interchain disulfide bond. The immunoglobulin heavy chain constant region differs in amino acid composition and sequence, and thus, in antigenicity. Accordingly, immunoglobulins can be assigned to five classes, or different types of immunoglobulins, i.e., igM, igD, igG, igA and IgE, and the heavy chain constant regions corresponding to the different classes of immunoglobulins are designated α, δ, ε, γ, and μ, respectively. IgG represents the most important class of immunoglobulins, which can be divided into 4 subclasses again due to differences in chemical structure and biological function: igG1, igG2, igG3 and IgG4. Light chains are classified as either kappa or lambda chains by the difference in constant regions. Subunit structures and three-dimensional configurations of different classes of immunoglobulins are well known to those skilled in the art.
The sequences of the heavy and light chains of the antibody near the N-terminus vary widely, being the variable region (V region); the remaining amino acid sequence near the C-terminus is relatively stable and is a constant region (C-region). The variable region includes 3 hypervariable regions (HVRs) and 4 FR Regions (FR) that are relatively conserved in sequence. The amino acid sequences of the 4 FRs are relatively conserved and do not directly participate in the binding reaction. The 3 hypervariable regions determine the specificity of the antibody, also known as Complementarity Determining Regions (CDRs). Each of the Light Chain Variable Region (LCVR) and Heavy Chain Variable Region (HCVR) consists of 3 CDR regions and 4 FR regions, arranged in sequence from amino-to carboxy-terminus in the order FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4. The 3 CDR regions of the light chain, namely the light chain hypervariable region (LCDR), refer to LCDR1, LCDR2 and LCDR3; the 3 CDR regions of the heavy chain, namely heavy chain hypervariable regions (HCDR), refer to HCDR1, HCDR2 and HCDR3. The CDR amino acid residues of the LCVR and HCVR regions of the antibodies or antigen-binding fragments of the invention are in numbers and positions that meet the known Kabat numbering convention (LCDR 1-3, HCDR 2-3), or that meet the numbering convention of Kabat and chothia (HCDR 1). The four FR regions in the natural heavy and light chain variable regions are generally in a β -sheet configuration, connected by three CDRs forming the connecting loops, which in some cases may form a partially folded structure. The CDRs in each chain are held closely together by the FR regions and form together with the CDRs of the other chain an antigen binding site of the antibody. It is possible to determine which amino acids constitute the FR or CDR regions by comparing the amino acid sequences of the same type of antibody. The constant regions are not directly involved in binding of the antibody to the antigen, but they exhibit different effector functions, such as participation in antibody-dependent cytotoxicity of the antibody.
As used herein, the term "antigen binding fragment" refers to a Fab fragment, fab 'fragment, F (ab') 2 fragment, or single Fv fragment having antigen binding activity. Fv antibodies contain antibody heavy chain variable regions, light chain variable regions, but no constant regions, and have a minimal antibody fragment of the entire antigen binding site. Generally, fv antibodies also comprise a polypeptide linker between the VH and VL domains, and are capable of forming the structures required for antigen binding.
As used herein, the term "epitope" refers to a discrete, three-dimensional spatial site on an antigen that is recognized by an antibody or antigen-binding fragment of the invention.
The invention includes not only whole antibodies but also fragments of antibodies having immunological activity or fusion proteins of antibodies with other sequences. Thus, the invention also includes fragments, derivatives and analogues of said antibodies.
In the present invention, antibodies include murine, chimeric, humanized or fully human antibodies prepared by techniques well known to those skilled in the art. Recombinant antibodies, such as chimeric and humanized monoclonal antibodies, including human and non-human portions, can be prepared using DNA recombination techniques well known in the art.
As used herein, the term "monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody secreted from a clone derived from a single cell source. Monoclonal antibodies are highly specific, being directed against a single epitope. The cells may be eukaryotic, prokaryotic or phage clonal cell lines.
As used herein, the term "chimeric antibody" is an antibody molecule expressed by a host cell by splicing the V region gene of a murine antibody to the C region gene of a human antibody into a chimeric gene, followed by insertion into a vector. The high specificity and affinity of the parent mouse antibody are maintained, and the human Fc segment of the parent mouse antibody can effectively mediate biological effect functions.
As used herein, the term "humanized antibody", a variable region engineered version of the murine antibody of the present invention, has CDR regions derived (or substantially derived) from a non-human antibody (preferably a mouse monoclonal antibody), and FR regions and constant regions substantially derived from human antibody sequences; i.e., grafting murine-resistant CDR region sequences onto different types of human germline antibody framework sequences. Because CDR sequences are responsible for most of the antibody-antigen interactions, recombinant antibodies that mimic the properties of a particular naturally occurring antibody can be expressed by constructing expression vectors. In the present invention, antibodies may be monospecific, bispecific, trispecific, or more multispecific.
In the present invention, the antibodies of the invention also include conservative variants thereof, meaning that up to 10, preferably up to 8, more preferably up to 5, and most preferably up to 3 amino acids are replaced by amino acids of similar or similar nature to the amino acid sequence of the antibodies of the invention to form a polypeptide. These conservatively variant polypeptides are preferably generated by amino acid substitutions according to Table A.

Mu.g SDC1 (Mammalian, C-6 His) protein and incomplete Freund's adjuvant were emulsified for subsequent 5 immunizations, for a total of 6 immunizations. Blood is taken after 6 times of immunization, serum titer is measured by ELISA method gradient dilution, and the mice with the best immune antibody titer are selected for the next cell fusion.
Results
As can be seen from table 1, there are mice producing antibodies against the antigen, which can be used in subsequent experiments.
(3) Hybridoma cell fusion
Spleen of the mice was taken, ground with a cell screen, and the adherent tissues were removed to prepare spleen cell suspensions. Murine SP2/0 myeloma cells were prepared and counted together with spleen cell suspensions according to 3:1, and then in a centrifuge at 1500rpm for 7min. After discarding the supernatant, the cells were resuspended by addition of Cytofusion Medium C and centrifuged at 1500rpm for 7min. Cells were resuspended with Cytofusion Medium C again and added to the electrode cup of the BTX fusion apparatus for electrofusion. The cell suspension was added to hybridoma incubation (dmem+20% fbs), placed in a 37 ℃ 5% co2 incubator for 30min, and then centrifuged to change the hybridoma medium for further culture.
(4) Screening of clones
The hybridoma supernatants were tested by ELISA, and positive hybridomas were selected. Transferring the positive hybridomas obtained by screening in the 96-well plate into a 24-well plate for continuous culture for 3 days, continuously detecting the supernatant of the hybridomas by using ELISA experiments, and selecting positive hybridomas capable of reacting with CD 138. Meanwhile, tumor cells expressing CD138 are incubated on the supernatant of the hybridomas in the 24-well plates by using a FACS method, and positive hybridoma cells which can react with the cells are selected. Positive hybridoma cells were finally determined and subcloned according to ELISA and FACS experiments.

(5) Production verification of mouse anti-mice
Taking 3×10 7 Hybridoma cells with good growth status were cultured in antibody preparation medium (dmem+10 Ultra low IgG FBS) for 5 days. The culture supernatant was collected and purified with Protein A to give the corresponding antibody. ELISA and FACS experiments were then used to verify whether the murine antibodies produced respond positively to antigen CD 138. Based on ELISA and FACS experimental results, positive clones were determined for subsequent sequencing.
As can be seen from FIG. 1A, ELISA experiments show that 103E11F9, 109C10F3 and 126G1F3 have positive reaction to antigen CD138, while FACS experiments show that 90A5E6, 88E5D6 and 103E11F9 have better affinity to myeloma cell line and high specificity to human kidney epithelial cell line 293T cells. Thus, based on ELISA and FACS results, 90A5E6, 103E11F9, 109C10F3, 126G1F3 and 88E5D6 were finally selected for subsequent sequencing.
(6) Hybridoma sequencing

Meanwhile, the purity of the product reaches more than 95%, and the product can be used for subsequent researches.
B. Binding ability of chimeric antibodies to myeloma cell surface antigen CD138
(1) Tumor cells were 2X 10 per well 5 50. Mu.L was plated into 96-well round-bottomed cell culture plates.
(2) Antibodies were prepared at an initial concentration of 60 μg/mL, then diluted 3-fold in gradient, and a total of 7 concentrations were obtained.
(3) The antibody dilutions were added to the tumor cell suspensions previously spread in the 96 wells above, 50 μl per well, and incubated at 4 ℃ for 1h.
(4) The 96-well plate was placed in a centrifuge at 1000rpm for 5min and washed 2 times.
(5) 50. Mu.L of secondary antibody (Goat anti-Human IgG (FcDylight 488)) diluted 1000-fold with PBS was added, and the mixture was blown on and incubated at 4℃for 1h.
(6) The 96-well plate was placed in a centrifuge at 1000rpm for 5min and washed 3 times.
(7) Cells were resuspended and examined with a flow cytometer.
