Definitions
- the present invention relates to a mixture of peptides derived from the E6 and / or E7 proteins of a papillomavirus involved in cervical cancer, such as HPV16 (papillomavirus genotype 16), HPV18, HPV30, HPV31, HPV32 , HPV33, HPV34, HPV35, HPV39, HPV40, HPV42, HPV43, HPV44, HPV45, HPV51, HPV52, HPV56, HPV57 and HPV58, for example as well as to its applications as a medicament (in immunogenic compositions, capable of stimulating the production of anti-HPV CD4 + T cells in vivo and therefore useful for vaccination against cervical and other cancers) or as a reagent for diagnosing HPV-specific T cells , especially to assess the immune status of patients.
- HPV16 papillomavirus genotype 16
- HPV18 papillomavirus genotype 16
- HPV30 papillomavirus genotype 16
- the present invention also relates to a mixture of peptides derived from the E6 and / or E7 proteins of a papillomavirus involved in benign lesions of the skin (warts for example), such as HPV 10, HPV3 or HPV4 and to its applications in as a medicine.
- HPV Human papillomaviruses
- HPV DNA is very often detected by PCR in patient biopsies (1). 20 to 50% of penile cancers and 70% of anal cancers reveal the presence of HPV DNA. There are in fact more than 100 different genotypes of papillomavirus each having its own pathogenicity. The association between HPV infection and cervical cancer varies according to genotypes. A distinction is made between strains like the HPV6 and HPV11 viruses at low or no risk of malignant transformation, from high risk strains like the HPV 16 and HPV 18 viruses. Whatever the country, HPV16 is found in 40 to 60% of cancers cervix while HPV 18 is present in 10 to 20% of cases.
- the pRb and p53 genes are mutated and inactive in the cell lines of the cervix showing no infection by HPV whereas they are not in the infected lines. All of these observations strongly suggest that the proteins E6 and E7 are key components of HPV infection and the induction of cancerous states. In the absence of specific anti-viral treatments for HPV infections, the development of anti-HPV vaccines constitutes one of the promising avenues for combating the forms of cancer induced by these viruses.
- peptides or subunits therefore appears to be very interesting.
- suitably chosen peptides are capable of recruiting both cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) and helper T lymphocytes (helper T lymphocytes) of the Th1 type directed specifically against the transformed cells.
- CTL cytotoxic T lymphocytes
- helper T lymphocytes helper T lymphocytes
- the proteins E6 and E7 constitute privileged targets, because they participate directly in the cancerization of the cells and their early expression after the infection persists in the transformed cell.
- Different vaccination strategies using peptides derived from these two proteins have thus been recommended. These strategies are based on the fact that CD4 + T lymphocytes have a major role in the establishment of immune responses and in particular of CTLs.
- CD4 + T lymphocytes The activation of CD4 + T lymphocytes is effected by the presentation of viral peptides by HLA II molecules, carried by the antigen presenting cells (APC or Antigen Presentation Cells).
- APC antigen presenting cells
- T epitopes result from the proteolytic degradation of viral antigens by APC. They have varying lengths, usually 13 to 25 amino acids and have a sequence that makes them capable of binding to HLA II molecules.
- T epitope is capable, like the native antigen, of stimulating CD4 + T lymphocytes which are specific to it in vitro or of recruiting them in vivo.
- T epitopes are therefore sufficient to induce a CD4 + response.
- one of the major problems which limits the use of these peptides is that their sequence varies from one individual to another, due to the polymorphism of the HLA II molecules, which are heterodimers, expressed on the cells presenting antigens (APC) and which present to CD4 + T lymphocytes, the T epitopes of said antigens.
- APC antigen presenting antigens
- CD4 + T lymphocytes CD4 + T lymphocytes
- These molecules are capable of binding a large repertoire of peptides having very different sequences, which allows them to present to T cells, several peptides per antigen.
- HLA-DR HLA-DR
- 1 HLA-DQ HLA-DQ
- 1 HLA-DP HLA-DR molecule whose ⁇ chain is coded by the DRB1 gene ( 1st gene) is the most expressed.
- DRB1 gene 1st gene
- Each allele has its own binding properties; the broad specificity of HLA II molecules and the existence of several isoforms and of a polymorphism mean that each individual recognizes in an antigen, a set of peptides whose nature depends on the HLA II molecules which characterizes it. As there are a large number of HLA II alleles, there is therefore, for a given antigen, a large number of T epitopes, specific to each allele.
- the distribution of alleles in a given population is not homogeneous: for example, in the French population, which corresponds to a predominantly Caucasian population, only 7 alleles of the DRB1 locus exceed 5%; these are alleles: DRB1 * 0101, DRB1 * 0301, DRB1 * 0401, DRB 1 * 0701, DRB1 * 1,101, DRB 1 * 1301 and DRB1 * 1501, which represent 64% of the population (4). These same alleles are also the majority in other populations in Europe, where their frequency varies from 53% (Spain) to 82% (Denmark), as well as in North America (55-58%).
- the HLA-DRB3, -DRB4 and -DRB5 ( 2nd gene) molecules which are HLA-DR molecules whose ⁇ chain is not encoded by the DRB1 gene, are also present with significant allelic frequencies in the different Caucasian populations: 9.2% for DRB3 * 0101 (B3), 28.4% for DRB4 * 0101 (B4) and 7.9% for DRB5 * 0101 (B5). They therefore alone cover 45% of the allelic frequency of Caucasian populations.
- the peptides present in a peptide sequence and which bind all of these alleles include the T epitopes of the majority of the Caucasian population.
- One of the most used means to define the CD4 + T epitopes of the auxiliary type is to measure the capacity of the peptides to proliferate the mononuclear cells of individuals having been in contact with the antigen considered.
- the antigens can be in the form of whole proteins or T epitopes.
- the T epitope of the E6 protein is preferably the epitope corresponding to positions 29-38 of said protein and the preferred epitopes of the E7 protein are those corresponding respectively to positions: 11-20, 49-57, 82-90, 86-93; the use of an E7 protein detoxified by deletion of the Rb protein binding site is also envisaged.
- Patent EP 0 561 885 (University of Queensland and CSL Ltd) describes a subunit vaccine against the HPV 16 papilloma virus, which comprises the DRAHYNI sequence of the E7 protein (positions 48-54), considered to induce a significantly higher immune response than other epitopes.
- mice with peptides derived from proteins E6 and E7 of HPV16 protects against a virulent test constituted by cancer cells transformed by HPV 16, they have in particular shown the advantage of the protein E7 of HPV16 and sought to identify T epitopes in this protein. To do this, they produced synthetic peptides of 15 amino acids, the sequence of which overlaps on 5 amino acids, so as to obtain a series of peptides representing the entire sequence of the E7 protein.
- E6 of the HPV 16 genotype causes the proliferation of the cells of 13 individuals out of 63 tested (Immunol, 1996, 3, 205). They also studied the responses observed with the E7 protein and showed that little response is observed with this protein.
- EP 0 561 885 E7 48-54, 44-54, 44-62, 44-57, 44-56. 44-60, 44-48, 38-41, 10-14, 11-14
- EP 0 386 734 E7 12-27, 12-23, 12-20, 12-19 and 36-52
- a response common to many patients, to a particular peptide can then result from a sampling bias and not from the effective capacity of a peptide to be recognized by all patients.
- the persistence of the antigen can induce a state of immune tolerance against the T epitopes of the virus, the best recognized by T cells, as has been shown. in a transgenic mouse model for the E7 protein of HPV (T. Doan et al, J Virol., 1999, 73, 6166).
- the response is often weaker in patients who have eliminated the virus compared to infected patients (T. Tsukui et al., 1996 cited above).
- the most interesting epitopes could have disappeared from the immune response which would be maintained for less stimulating determinants but which would not succeed in eliminating the virus.
- the peptides proposed so far correspond to T epitopes, which are specific only for particular individuals; in fact, there is an interindividual variability of the T epitopes, which makes it difficult to choose molecules suitable for mass vaccination against HPV 16; accordingly, the peptides described above are not suitable for the preparation of an immunogenic composition and vaccine capable of stimulating CD4 + T lymphocytes anti- HPV 16 and generating a protective immune response, 'irrespective of the individual to be protected, because they do not stimulate a protective CD4 + T response in all of the subjects to be treated.
- Such a set has the property of being effective in a large number of subjects, while the peptides of the prior art are active in a few individuals and are inactive in the majority of other individuals, because the latter do not recognize the proteins.
- E6 and E7 of HPVl ⁇ by the same determinants. To do this, the inventors have selected peptides derived from the proteins E6 and E7 of one of the aforementioned HPVs, in particular from HPV16, restricted to the predominant HLA II molecules in Caucasian populations and have found that in combination, the selected peptides induce indeed an immunogenic and protective response in a large number of individuals.
- the present invention therefore relates to a mixture of peptides, derived from an E6 protein and / or an E7 protein from an HPV involved in cervical cancer or benign lesions of the skin, characterized in that each of the peptides included in said mixture binds to at least one HLA-DRB1 molecule ( 1st gene) the frequency of which is greater than 5% in the Caucasian population and possibly to at least one HLA-DRB3, HLA-DRB4 or HLA molecule - DRB5 (2 nd gene), with a binding activity ⁇ 1000 nM, preferably ⁇ 800 nM, said mixture of peptides binding at least eight molecules HLA class II whose frequency is greater than 5% in the Caucasian population, encoded by the alleles selected from the group consisting of the HLA alleles DRB1 * 0101, DRB1 * 0301, DRB1 * 0401, DRB1 * 0701, DRB1 * 1101, DRB1 * 1301 and DRB1 * 1501 (molecules
- Such a mixture of peptides makes it possible, surprisingly, to obtain a proliferative CD4 + T response (stimulation of CD4 + T lymphocytes) as well as stimulation of the CTL response, in the vast majority of the Caucasian population to be protected and whatever that either the HPV concerned; we can therefore consider that such a mixture constitutes a first step towards an “universal” immunogenic composition, suitable for use in a vaccine.

- the similarity of a sequence compared to a reference sequence is assessed according to the percentage of amino acid residues which are identical or which differ by conservative substitutions, when these two sequences are aligned so as to obtain the maximum of correspondence between them.

- the invention also comprises other provisions, which will emerge from the description which follows, which refers to examples of implementation of the method which is the subject of the present invention as well as to the accompanying drawing, in which :
- FIG. 1 shows the proliferation and secretion of IFN- ⁇ cells of a patient with bowenoid papulosis and who spontaneously resolved his infection.
- the patient is DRB1 * 1601/1501 DRB5 * 0101.
- the E6 peptide (45-67) is a good ligand for DRB1 * 1501
- the E7 peptide (7-27) is a good ligand for DRB5 * 0101 (see also Table VIII).
- HLA-DR molecules are purified from different EBV lines homozygous by immunoaffinity.
- the monomorphic antibody specific for HLA-DR molecules is in particular that described in Southwood et al. (24) or that described in Posch et al. (25). Antibodies are purified from culture supernatants on columns of
- Protein A-Sepharose are coupled on Sepharose 4B columns or
- Protein A-Sepharose for the purification of HLA-DR molecules.
- HLA-DR molecules Peptide binding tests for HLA-DR molecules are tests in competition with an immunoenzymatic revelation, originally developed by Hill on the HLA-DR molecule (26). They are carried out in 96-well plates, which makes it possible to study numerous samples in the same experiment. Briefly, the purified HLA-DR molecules are incubated with a biotinylated peptide which serves as a tracer and different concentrations of the peptide to be tested. After 24 to 72 hours of incubation, the samples are neutralized, then 100 ⁇ l of each sample are transferred to an ELIS A plate previously sensitized by the monomorphic antibody specific for the HLA-DR molecules.
- HLA-DR molecule / biotinylated peptide complexes fixed to the bottom of the plate by means of the monomorphic antibody specific for HLA-DR molecules, are revealed by means of a streptavidin-phosphatase conjugate and a fluorescent substrate.
- the activity of each peptide is characterized by the concentration of this peptide which inhibits 50% of the binding of the biotinylated peptide (CI). .
- the alleles studied are all alleles of the French population whose frequency exceeds 5% of the population. These are alleles DRB1 * 0101, DRB1 * 0301, DRB1 * 0401,
- DRBl * 0701, DRBl * 1101, DRBl * 1301 and DRBl * 1501 (Table I). They alone represent 53 to 82% of the alleles of Caucasian populations and are part of different specificities of the HLA-DR series.
- biotinylated peptides are the determining factor in the specificity of the test. Most of the cells used have two different HLA-DR molecules (encoded by two alleles) which are both purified by a monomorphic antibody specific for HLA-DR molecules and both recognized by the same antibody. In order to study unambiguously the binding of a peptide to the DRB1 allele, it is necessary to ensure that the biotinylated peptide binds this allele and does not bind the product of the other allele. For this purpose, the peptides as defined as RI reagents above were used.
- the frequencies indicated are the allelic frequencies in France and are representative of those of the Caucasian population. They come from Colombani (22).
- Tables Vlla and Vllb below illustrate the binding activity of the peptides according to the invention, measured under the conditions specified above.
- a proliferation test is carried out in vitro.

- the wells are washed with PBS and saturated with RPMI medium containing 10% calf serum for 2 hours at 37 ° C.
- PBMC lymphoblastoid cells obtained after infection with the EBV virus or genetically modified cells are used and are distributed in the wells.
- the E6 or E7 peptides, as defined in the invention are then added at different concentrations (10, 5 and 1 ⁇ g / ml).
- the effector cells (PBMC, PBMC depleted in CD8 + cells, T lymphocytes previously enriched by an in vitro culture step with the peptides E6 or E7 or both or cloned lymphocytes) are added to the 96-well plates at the rate of 20,000. cells / well. The culture is incubated for 24 hours at 37 ° C in an atmosphere containing 5% CO 2 .
