BACKGROUND Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS Cov-2) is a newly identified member of the coronavirus family. This virus was first identified in Wuhan, China and is responsible for a world pandemic named COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019). The virus represents a strain of RNA viruses that has not been previously identified in humans and could induce symptoms including fever, dry cough, dyspnea, fatigue, and lymphopenia in infected patients. In more severe cases, infections causing viral pneumonia characterized primarily by fever, cough, dyspnea, and bilateral infiltrates may lead to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and even to death (Zhang et al. 2020). When COVID-19 infects the upper and lower respiratory tract it can cause mild or highly acute respiratory syndrome with consequent release of pro- inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. The virus can also result in a dysregulated immune response and this cytokine storm seems to be associated with disease severity, as it can lead to capillary leak syndrome, progressive lung injury, respiratory failure and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) (Zhang et al. 2020; Huang et al. 2020; Shi et al. 2020).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS The present invention is based on the production of anti SARS Cov-2 antibodies.
Specific and high-affinity antibodies were prepared from blood samples of human patients recovering from COVID-19, by efficient screening methods using phage-display libraries.
Based on the identification of eight high-affinity antibodies directed to SARS Cov-2, termed herein MD17, MD29, MD45, MD47, MD62, MD63, MD65, and MD67, single chain Fv-Fc (scFv-Fc) antibodies were prepared. The anti- SARS Cov-2 scFv-Fc antibodies herein described were capable of binding to SARS Cov-2 and neutralize it, as demonstrated by the plaque reduction neutralization assay presented below. Furthermore, the anti- SARS Cov-2 antibodies herein described were shown to bind purified SARS Cov-2 protein components, namely the S1 subunit and more specifically, the receptor binding domain (RBD), both of which are regions within the viral spike protein.
Additional single chain Fv-Fc (scFv-Fc) antibodies directed to SARS Cov-2 Spike were prepared. The antibodies termed herein BL1, BL2, BL3, BL5, BL6, BL7, BL8, BL9, BL10, BL11, BL12, BLK2, BLK3, BLK10, BLK14, BLK15, BLK21 and BLK23 are directed to the receptor binding domain (RBD). The antibodies termed herein BLN1, BLN2, BLN3, BLN4, BLN5, BLN6, BLN7, BLN8, BLN9, BLN10, BLN12, BLN14 are directed to the N-terminal domain (NTD). These antibodies were capable of binding to SARS Cov-2 and neutralize it, as demonstrated by the plaque reduction neutralization assay presented below.
The antibodies of the present invention can be used inter alia as a therapy for COVID-19 patients.
Therefore, in a first of its aspects, the present invention provides an isolated monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof which binds to Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS Cov-2) spike protein. In particular, the present invention provides an isolated monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof which binds to the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the SARS Cov-2 spike protein, or an isolated monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof which binds to the N-terminal domain (NTD) of the SARS Cov-2 spike protein.
The term "SARS Cov-2 (also referred to herein as "Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2") spike protein" refers to the surface protein of SARS Cov-2 (or the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) as previously termed by the World Health Organization (WHO)). SARS Cov-2 is the RNA virus that causes the disease termed COVID-19.
Coronaviruses contain four structural proteins, including spike (S), envelope (E), membrane (M), and nucleocapsid (N) proteins, of which the spike (S) protein plays the most important role in viral attachment, fusion and cell entry. The S protein mediates viral entry into host cells by first binding to a host receptor through the receptor-binding domain (RBD) in the S1 subunit and then fusing the viral and host membranes through the S2 subunit. SARS-CoV-2 recognizes angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as its host receptor.
The receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the spike protein as known in the art is defined as the region located between amino acids 318-542 of the spike protein (GenPept:QHD43416 ORF) and responsible for attachment to the ACE2 receptor.
The S1 subunit of the spike protein as known in the art is defined as the region located between amino acids 1-1207 of the spike protein (GenPept:QHD43416 ORF).
The N-terminal domain (NTD) of the S1 subunit is located between amino acids 1-305 of the Spike protein (GenPept:QHD43416 ORF). The function of the NTD is not well understood but it was suggested to play a role in mediating prefusion to post-fusion transition of the S protein and may also bind specific sugar moieties on the surface of cells, accommodating an alternative route for virus cell entry.

As indicated above, the present invention provides isolated monoclonal antibodies that bind to SARS Cov-2 spike protein. The term “antibody” refers to a polypeptide encoded by an immunoglobulin gene that specifically binds and recognizes an antigen, in the present case SARS Cov-2 spike protein.
The term “monoclonal antibody”, “monoclonal antibodies” or “mAb” as herein defined refers to a population of substantially homogenous antibodies, i.e., the individual antibodies comprising the population are identical except for possibly naturally occurring mutations that may be present in minor amounts. Monoclonal antibodies are directed against a single antigenic site (epitope).
Monoclonal antibodies may be prepared and purified by any method known in the art. For example, monoclonal antibodies may be prepared from B cells taken from the spleen or lymph nodes of immunized animals (e.g. rabbits, rats, mice or monkeys), or isolated from the blood of recovered COVID 19 patients that were shown in serological tests to contain antibodies directed to SARS Cov2 spike protein.
Based on the results obtained from a phage display library, full length antibodies are produced, as known in the art, and as described below.
Purification of monoclonal antibodies may be performed using any method known in the art, for example by affinity chromatography, namely, by using an affinity column to which a specific epitope (or antigen) is conjugated. Alternatively, purification of antibodies may be based on using protein A and protein G column chromatography, as described below.
An exemplary antibody structural unit comprises a tetramer, as known in the art.
Each tetramer is composed of two identical pairs of polypeptide chains, each pair having one “light chain” and one “heavy chain”. The N-terminus of each chain defines a variable region of about 100 to 110 or more amino acids primarily responsible for antigen (or epitope) recognition.
Thus, the terms “heavy chain variable region” (V ) and “light chain variable H region” (V ) refer to these heavy and light chains, respectively. More specifically, the L variable region is subdivided into hypervariable and framework (FR) regions.
Hypervariable regions have a high ratio of different amino acids in a given position, relative to the most common amino acid in that position. Four FR regions which have more stable amino acids sequences separate the hypervariable regions. The hypervariable regions directly contact a portion of the antigen's surface. For this reason, hypervariable regions are herein referred to as "complementarity determining regions", or "CDRs", the CDRs are positioned either at the heavy chain of the antibody (a "heavy chain complementarity determining region") or at the light chain of the antibody (a "light chain complementarity determining region").
From N-terminal to C-terminal, both light and heavy chains comprise the domains FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3 and FR4. The CDRs are primarily responsible for binding to an epitope of an antigen. The CDRs of each chain are typically referred to as CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3, numbered sequentially starting from the N-terminus, and are also typically identified by the chain in which the CDR is located.
Thus, the complementarity determining regions CDRH1, CDRH2 and CDRH3 refer to the three complementarity determining regions starting from the N-terminus of the antibody’s heavy chain (also referred to herein as heavy chain complementarity determining region) and the complementarity determining regions CDRL1, CDRL2 and CDRL3 refer to the three complementarity determining regions starting from the N- terminus of the antibody’s light chain (also referred to herein as light chain complementarity determining region).
The present invention encompasses antigen-binding fragments of the isolated anti SARS Cov2 spike protein monoclonal antibody of the invention.
As used herein the term "antigen binding fragment" relates to a fragment of the full length antibody which retains the antibody's specificity of binding to SARS Cov2 spike protein. An antigen binding fragment encompasses but is not limited to Fv, single chain Fv (scFv), single chain Fv-Fc (scFv-Fc), Fab’, Fab, F(ab’) and F(ab) . 2 2 Such fragments may be produced by any method known in the art, for example by proteolytic cleavage, using enzymes such as papain (to produce Fab fragments) or pepsin (to produce F(ab') fragments). 2 Thus in some embodiments the antibody according to the invention is wherein said antibody is an antibody fragment selected from the group consisting of a single-chain Fv-Fc (scFv-Fc) molecule, single chain Fv (scFv), Fv, Fab’, Fab, F(ab’) , F(ab) and any 2 2 combination thereof.
In some specific embodiments, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof is a single chain variable fragment-Fc fragment (scFv-Fc) molecule. In other specific embodiments, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof is a single chain variable fragment (scFv) molecule.
In specific embodiments the isolated monoclonal antibody of the invention or the antigen-binding fragment thereof binds to the spike protein. In certain embodiments the isolated monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof according the present invention is wherein said antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof binds to at least one of the Receptor binding domain (RBD), the S1 subunit, or the N-terminal domain (NTD) of the spike protein. In further specific embodiments the isolated monoclonal antibody of the invention or the antigen-binding fragment thereof binds to the receptor binding domain of the spike protein.
As demonstrated in Example 4 below, binding of the antibodies of the invention inhibited the ability of SARS-CoV-2 virus to infect VERO-E6 culture. Therefore, in certain embodiments the isolated monoclonal antibodies of the invention or the antigen- binding fragment thereof inhibits the ability of SARS-CoV-2 virus to infect VERO-E6 culture cells.
By the term “inhibit” in the context of the present invention it is meant that the isolated monoclonal antibody of the invention or the antigen-binding fragment thereof impedes, hinders, prohibits or suppresses by at least about 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14%, 15%, 16%, 17%, 18%, 19%, 20%, 21%, 22%, 23%, 24%, 25%, 26%, 27%, 28%, 29%, 30%, 31%, 32%, 33%, 34%, 35%, 36%, 37%, 38%, 39%, 40%, 41%, 42%, 43%, 44%, 45%, 46%, 47%, 48%, 49%, 50%, 51%, 52%, 53%, 54%, 55%, 56%, 57%, 58%, 59%, 60%, 61%, 62%, 63%, 64%, 65%, 66%, 67%, 68%, 69%, 70%, 71%, 72%, 73%, 74%, 75%, 76%, 77%, 78%, 79%, 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or about 100% of the ability of SARS-CoV-2 virus to infect VERO-E6 culture cells as compared to SARS-CoV-2 virus infection in the absence of the antibody of the invention or the antigen-binding fragment thereof.
The term “cell” or “cells” as referred to herein is used at its broadest sense.
In some embodiments the isolated anti SARS Cov2 spike protein monoclonal antibody is a chimeric antibody, a human antibody, or a humanized antibody.
The term "human antibody" as used herein refers to an antibody that possesses an amino acid sequence corresponding to that of an antibody produced by a human and/or has been made using any of the techniques for making human antibodies known in the art. This definition specifically excludes a humanized antibody that comprises non-human antigen-binding residues.
Preparation of humanized and human antibodies is well known in the art.
Antibodies may also be prepared using phage display. As known in the art, antibody phage display (APD) is based on genetic engineering of bacteriophages and repeated rounds of antigen-guided selection and phage propagation.
The APD process begins with antibody-library preparation (e.g. as described in the Examples section below), by preparation of quality RNA from the cell source chosen (e.g., lymph nodes and blood samples). This RNA is reverse transcribed into cDNA, which is used for PCR of the VH and VL chains of the encoded antibodies. This step is followed by ligation of the variable heavy (VH) and variable light (VL) PCR products into a phage display vector, culminating in analysis of clones of mAbs.
For preparing large quantities of the antibody (either chimeric, humanized or human), a stable cell line expressing the antibody can be prepared, by transfecting cells (e.g. CHO cells) with the Ig expression vector containing both heavy and light chains of the antibody. The antibodies may then be manufactured for example in a state of the art single-use bioreactor system. The antibodies may be purified to clinical grade using well established monoclonal antibody purification methods. Highly anti- SARS Cov2 spike protein antibody producing clones may then be selected and expanded based on antibody levels in the supernatant, as tested by any method known in the art, for example, a SARS Cov2 spike protein -specific ELISA assay, as detailed herein below. A master cell bank, developed for the specific clone, may serve as the starting growing material for all clinical grade batches.

The present invention also encompasses variants of the heavy and light chain variable regions. The variants may include mutations in the complementarity determining regions of the heavy and light chains which do not alter the activity of the antibodies herein described, or in the framework region.
By the term “variant” it is meant sequences of amino acids or nucleotides different from the sequences specifically identified herein, in which one or more amino acid residues or nucleotides are deleted, substituted, or added.
It should be appreciated that by the term "added ", as used herein it is meant any addition of amino acid residues to the sequences described herein.
Variants encompass various amino acid substitutions. An amino acid “substitution” is the result of replacing one amino acid with another amino acid which has similar or different structural and/or chemical properties. Amino acid substitutions may be made based on similarity in polarity, charge, solubility, hydrophobicity, hydrophilicity, and/or the amphipathic nature of the residues involved.
Typically, variants encompass conservative amino acid substitutions.
Conservative substitution tables providing functionally similar amino acids are well known in the art. For example, nonpolar (hydrophobic) amino acids include alanine, leucine, isoleucine, valine, proline, phenylalanine, tryptophan, and methionine; polar neutral amino acids include glycine, serine, threonine, cysteine, tyrosine, asparagine, and glutamine; positively charged (basic) amino acids include arginine, lysine, and histidine; and negatively charged (acidic) amino acids include aspartic acid and glutamic acid.
Each of the following eight groups contains other exemplary amino acids that are conservative substitutions for one another: 1) Alanine (A), Glycine (G); 2) Aspartic acid (D), Glutamic acid (E); 3) Asparagine (N), Glutamine (Q); 4) Arginine (R), Lysine (K); ) Isoleucine (I), Leucine (L), Methionine (M), Valine (V); 6) Phenylalanine (F), Tyrosine (Y), Tryptophan (W); 7) Serine (S), Threonine (T); and 8) Cysteine (C), Methionine (M).
Conservative nucleic acid substitutions are nucleic acid substitutions resulting in conservative amino acid substitutions as defined above.
Variants in accordance with the invention also encompass non-polar to polar amino acid substitutions and vice-versa.
As used herein, the term “amino acid” or “amino acid residue” refers to naturally occurring and synthetic amino acids, as well as amino acid analogs and amino acid mimetics that function in a manner similar to the naturally occurring amino acids.
Variant sequences refer to amino acid or nucleic acids sequences that may be characterized by the percentage of the identity of their amino acid or nucleotide sequences with the amino acid or nucleotide sequences described herein (for example, the amino acid or nucleotide sequences of the heavy and light chains of the antibodies herein described).
In some embodiments, variant sequences as herein defined refer to nucleic acid sequences that encode the heavy and light chain variable regions, each having a sequence of nucleotides with at least 70% or 75% of sequence identity, around 80% or 85% of sequence identity, around 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98% or 99% of sequence identity when compared to the sequences of the heavy and light chain variable regions described herein.
By the term “activity of the antibodies” it is meant the ability of the antibodies to bind SARS Cov2 spike protein, and preferably to inhibit the ability of SARS-CoV-2 virus to infect mammalian cells. The activity of the antibodies can be measured in vivo or in vitro using methods well known in the art, e.g. as described in the Examples below.
The binding of the antibody of the invention to its target protein may be measured for example using ELISA, biolayer interferometry (BLI), Western blot or IFA assays.
The biological activity of the antibodies can be measured for example in a functional assay testing the infectivity of SARS-CoV-2 virus in cultured mammalian cells for example as detailed in the Examples below.
In another one of its aspects the present invention provides an isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof according to the invention.
The term “nucleic acid” or “nucleic acid molecule” as herein defined refers to a polymer of nucleotides, which may be either single- or double-stranded, which is a polynucleotide such as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and, where appropriate, ribonucleic acid (RNA). The terms should also be understood to include, as equivalents, analogs of either RNA or DNA made from nucleotide analogs, and, as applicable to the embodiment being described, single-stranded (such as sense or antisense) and double-stranded polynucleotides. The term DNA used herein also encompasses cDNA, i.e. complementary or copy DNA produced from an RNA template by the action of reverse transcriptase (RNA-dependent DNA polymerase).
The invention further provides an expression vector comprising the isolated nucleic acid molecule as herein defined.
“Expression vector” sometimes referred to as “expression vehicle” or “expression construct”, as used herein, encompasses vectors such as plasmids, viruses, bacteriophage, integratable DNA fragments, and other vehicles, which enable the integration of DNA fragments into the genome of the host. Expression vectors are typically self-replicating DNA or RNA constructs containing the desired gene or its fragments, and operably linked genetic control elements that are recognized in a suitable host cell and effect expression of the desired genes. These control elements are capable of effecting expression within a suitable host. The expression vector in accordance with the invention may be competent with expression in bacterial, yeast, or mammalian host cells, to name but few.
In yet another one of its aspects the present invention provides a host cell transfected with the isolated nucleic acid molecule according to the invention or with the expression vector according to the invention.
The term "host cells” as used herein refers to cells which are susceptible to the introduction of the isolated nucleic acid molecule according to the invention or with the expression vector according to the invention. Preferably, said cells are mammalian cells, for example CHO cells or NS0 cells. Transfection of the isolated nucleic acid molecule or the expression vector according to the invention to the host cell may be performed by any method known in the art.
In yet another one of its aspects the present invention provides an immunoconjugate comprising the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof according to the invention and an additional therapeutic agent as defined herein below.
The term “immunoconjugate” as herein defined refers to an antibody or antigen- binding fragment thereof according to the invention that is conjugated (linked or joined) to an additional agent. Immunoconjugates may be prepared by any method known to a person skilled in the art, for example, by cross-linking the additional agent to the antibody according to the invention or by recombinant DNA methods.
The anti SARS Cov2 spike protein antibody of the invention may be administered in combination with at least one additional therapeutic agent.
The term “additional therapeutic agent” used herein refers to any agent that may be used for treating COVID19. In accordance with certain embodiments said at least one additional therapeutic agent is selected from a group consisting of anti SARS Cov2 antibodies, antiviral agents, or anti-inflammatory agents.
In certain embodiments the additional therapeutic agent is an additional antibody.
The term “additional antibody” as herein defined refers to antibodies of the invention (namely to the combined use of at least two antibodies of the invention, for example but not limited to the combination of an anti Spike RBD and anti Spike NTD antibodies) as well as to an antibody, which is not the antibody according to the invention, which may be used in combination with the antibody of the invention for treating COVID19.
The present invention further provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising as an active ingredient at least one isolated anti SARS Cov2 spike protein antibody of the invention, or antigen-binding fragment thereof or the immunoconjugate as herein defined and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, excipient or diluent.
In a specific embodiment, said pharmaceutical composition is for use in the treatment of a SARS Cov2 infection (i.e. COVID19) or for use in inhibiting SARS COV2 uptake by the subject's cells.
The “pharmaceutical composition” of the invention generally comprises the antibody or any antigen-binding fragment thereof as herein defined and a buffering agent, an agent which adjusts the osmolarity of the composition and optionally, one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, excipients and/or diluents as known in the art.
As used herein the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, excipient or diluent” includes any solvents, dispersion media, coatings, antibacterial and antifungal agents and the like, as known in the art. The carrier can be solvent or dispersion medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (for example, glycerol, propylene glycol, and liquid polyethylene glycol, and the like), suitable mixtures thereof, and vegetable oils.
Each carrier should be both pharmaceutically and physiologically acceptable in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients and not injurious to the subject. Except as any conventional media or agent is incompatible with the active ingredient, its use in the therapeutic composition is contemplated.
In other embodiments the pharmaceutical composition according to the invention further comprises an additional therapeutic agent. Non-limiting examples of additional therapeutic agents include anti SARS Cov2 spike protein antibodies and antiviral agents (e.g. remdesivir). Thus, in specific embodiments the pharmaceutical composition according to the invention further comprises an additional therapeutic agent which is an antiviral agent.

EXAMPLES Materials and Methods Single chain variable fragment (scFv) Library Construction RNA was extracted from blood samples obtained from human patients which were positively tested for COVID-19 and was used as a template for first-strand cDNA synthesis, essentially as described in Mechaly A. et al. 2018. A set of degenerate primers was designed to cover all known human VH, Vλ and Vk immunoglobulin families. The construction of the scFv library was performed by assembly PCR of the VH and Vκ or VH and Vλ fragments (Noy-Porat T. et al. 2016). The scFv gene fragments were then ligated into linearized pCC plasmid (Rosenfeld R. et al. 2009) and transformed into E. 16 coli TG1 electro-competent cells (Lucigen, Middleton, WI, USA). The transformed bacteria, containing the final scFv library, were plated on YPD agar (BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) supplemented with 100 µg/mL ampicillin and 100 mM glucose and, after an overnight culture at 30 °C, were harvested, aliquoted and stored at −80 °C.
Library Screening For library packaging, 200 mL Yeast Extract–Peptone–Dextrose (YPD) medium, containing 100 µg/mL ampicillin and 100 mM glucose, were inoculated with 0.5 mL of the harvested bacteria containing the scFv library. Bacteria were grown in a shaker incubator (New Brunswick Scientific, Enfield, CT, USA) at 37 °C, 220 rpm to an O.D. 600 of 0.7. Bacteria (10 mL) were than infected with 700 µL of M13KO7 helper phage (New England Biolabs, Ipswich, MA, USA) by incubating at 37 °C for 60 minutes (min) without shaking, followed by 60 min at 120 rpm. Infected cells were then harvested (5 min, 4000 rpm) and re-suspended in 50 mL YPD with 100 µg/mL ampicillin and 50 µg/mL kanamycin. After an overnight culture at 30 °C at 200 rpm, cells were pelleted by centrifugation for 10 min, 4000 rpm at 4 °C, and the supernatant containing the phages was filtered through a 0.45-µm filter and then precipitated with 1/5 volume of 20% PEG6000 (polyethylene glycol)/2.5 M NaCl solution for 2 hours on ice. The phages were pelleted by centrifugation of 1 hour at 9000× g, 4 °C, and re-suspended in 5 mL PBS.
For library panning, antigen was presented by streptavidin magnetic beads (Dynabeads M-280, Invitrogen #11206D) or polystyrene plates (Nunc, Denmark) as detailed below. Human Fc fragment conjugated to the spike-related receptor binding domain (huFc-RBD) was biotinylated using a commercial kit (EZ-Link sulfo-NHS- biotin, pierce) and incubated with Streptavidin (SA) beads for 30 minutes (min). The phage display library was then added to the beads prepared as detailed above and the mixture was incubated for an additional period of 90 min. The beads were then washed with 3% bovine serum albumin (BSA) in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), followed by washing with phosphate buffered saline Tween-20 (PBST) and PBS.
Furthermore, non-biotinylated RBD (5 µg/ml) was used to coat a polystyrene 12 plate. Approximately 1 × 10 phage clones were blocked for 1 hour and then incubated for an additional hour with the RBD coated plate. The plate was then washed twice with blocking solution, four times with PBST (PBS, 0.05% Tween 20) and twice with PBS.
The bound phages, from both the above beads and plates, were eluted by incubation with 100 mM Triethylamine pH 3 (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) for 30 min, followed by neutralization with 200μl Tris–HCl pH 7.5 (1M). The resulting phages were used to infect TG1 cells and grown over night for phage enrichment. The culture was then collected and used for phage rescue, to prepare the input for the next round of panning.
In total, three rounds of selection were used for isolating the antibodies. Single colonies were randomly picked from the second and third panning output, and phages were rescued and tested for their binding to RBD, spike-related S1 protein and inactivated COVID-19.
ELISA Maxisorp 96-well microtiter plates (Nunc, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) were coated overnight (50 µL/well) with purified RBD or S1 proteins, then washed and blocked with PBST buffer (0.05% Tween 20, 2% BSA in PBS) for one hour. Individual phage clones or antibodies were added to the plates for a one-hour incubation; the plates were then washed with PBST and incubated with the detecting antibody: horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated anti-M13 antibody (GE healthcare, Little Chalfont, UK) for phage clones or anti-human IgG conjugated to alkaline phosphatase (Jackson immunoresearch, West Grove, PA, USA) for full antibodies. Detection of HRP conjugates was achieved with 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethybenzidine (TMB/E, Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) while detection of alkaline phosphatase conjugates was achieved with SIGMAFAST p-nitrophenyl phosphate tablets (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA).
Nucleic Acid Analysis Phagemid DNA was isolated using the QIAprep spin Miniprep kit (Qiagen, GmbH, Hilden, Germany), and scFvs were sequenced by the SeqStudio Genetic Analyzer (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA) using primers TAB-RI and CBD-AS (Noy- Porat T. et al. 2016).
Production of Full-Length Antibodies and SARS CoV-2 proteins Phagemid DNA of the antibody clones were isolated using QIAprep spin Miniprep kit (Qiagen, GmbH, Hilden, Germany), and VH and VL sequences were cloned into a mammalian scFv-Fc expression vector (Mechaly A. et al 2018). GenPept: QHD43416 ORF (open reading frame), coding to SARS CoV-2 spike glycoprotein was used to design pcDNA3.1+ based expression plasmids, mediating recombinant expression of the spike related proteins (S1, receptor binding domain (RBD), N-terminal domain (NTD) and S2). In addition, huFc-RBD fusion protein was also expressed, comprising a homodimer of two RBD moieties fused to a dimer of human Fc.
CHO-S cells (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) were transiently transfected with the vectors and after several days the supernatants were collected. The antibodies were purified on a HiTrap Protein-A column and the spike proteins were purified on HisTrap column (GE healthcare, Little Chalfont, UK).
SARS-CoV-2 in vitro plaque reduction neutralization assay 6 Vero E6 cells were seeded overnight at a density of 0.5 × 10 cells per well in 12- well plates in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), Minimum Essential Medium (MEM) non-essential amino acids, 2 mM L-Glutamine, 100 Units/ml Penicillin, 0.1 mg/ml streptomycin, 12.5 Units/ml Nystatin (Biological Industries, Israel). Antibody samples were 2-fold diluted in 400 µl of MEM supplemented with 2% fetal bovine serum (FBS), MEM non-essential amino acids, 2 mM L-Glutamine, 100 Units/ml Penicillin, 0.1 mg/ml streptomycin, 12.5 Units/ml Nystatin (Biological Industries, Israel), and mixed with 400 µl of SARS-Cov-2 virus (150 pfu/ml) and incubated at 37 °C, 5% CO for 1 hour. Vero cell monolayers were 2 then washed once with DMEM medium without FBS and each Ab-virus mixture was added in triplicates to the cells for 1 hour. Non-neutralized virus served as control.
Medium at a 2 ml overlay (MEM containing 2% FBS and 0.4% tragacanth) was then added to each well and plates were further incubated at 37°C, 5% CO for 2 days. The 2 media were then aspirated and the cells were fixed and stained with 1 ml of crystal violet (Biological Industries, Israel). The number of plaques in each well was determined.
Example 1 Isolation of antibodies from COVID-19 patients Whole blood samples were obtained from human patients positively tested for COVID-19, total RNA was extracted, reverse-transcribed into cDNA and further used for construction of a phage-display library, as detailed above. Individual phage clones were selected as described above.
After panning and screening of the phage display library, eight different antibodies, termed MD17, MD29, MD45, MD47, MD62, MD63, MD65 and MD67 were isolated and sequenced, as described above. The nucleic acid sequences of the heavy and the light chains of the antibodies are shown in Table 1 above. The amino acid sequences of the heavy and the light chains of the antibodies are shown in Table 2 above and the amino acid sequences of the heavy chain CDRs and light chains CDRs of the antibodies are shown in Table 3 above.
Example 2 Characterization of the anti-SARS Cov-2 antibodies specificity The specific binding of seven antibodies was tested using direct ELISA against various SARS-CoV-2 related proteins. As can be seen in Figure 1, all clones strongly interact with the receptor binding domain (RBD), the S1 subunit (S1) and the spike protein without any significant binding to other parts of the spike protein, namely the N- terminal domain (NTD) or the S2 subunit (S2). These results imply that the selected set of antibodies are indeed directed to the RBD of the SARS-CoV-2.
Example 3 Binding assay of the anti-SARS Cov-2 antibodies to purified spike S1 protein To further characterize the binding of various antibodies, their affinity was evaluated using ELISA against the purified S1 protein (also referred to herein as the "S1 subunit"). Binding was normalized and expressed as percent of maximal binding, in order to correctly compare the activity of the antibodies. The apparent affinity of each antibody (K ) was then calculated as the antibody concentration at the half maximal binding point.
D These results (binding curves are shown in Figure 2) indicate that antibodies MD17 and MD29 possess the highest affinity toward the S1 protein (K of 2 nM) followed by D antibodies MD47, MD65 and MD67 (K of 5-12 nM) and antibodies MD45 and MD63 D (K of 38 nM and 47 nM, respectively).
D Example 4 Antibody mediated in vitro neutralization of SARS Cov-2 The SARS CoV-2 neutralization potency of each antibody was then evaluated using the plaque reduction neutralization assay as described above. In this assay, a fixed amount of virus is incubated with several concentrations of each of the tested antibodies and the mixture is added to Vero cells. The infectivity of SARS CoV-2 is determined by its ability to form measurable plaques in the culture cell monolayer and a sample that contains only virus is used as the 100% infectivity control. The number of plaques that were formed in the presence of each antibody was also evaluated, whereby virus neutralization is manifested in a reduction of the plaques that are formed. As shown in Figure 3, it was found that at a concentration of 100 g/ml, antibodies MD17, MD29 and MD47 neutralized >90% of the SARS-CoV-2 activity, thus demonstrating that they are an attractive candidates for a therapeutic preparation.
Example 5 Isolation of additional antibodies from COVID-19 (SARS CoV-2) patients In addition to the antibodies isolated as described above, further antibodies were obtained as detailed herein. Whole blood samples were obtained from seven human patients positively tested for COVID-19, and another phage display library was constructed as detailed above. Panning of the phage display library was conducted against either the receptor binding domain (RBD) or the N-terminal domain (NTD) proteins, and after screening, 18 antibodies (cloned as scFv-Fc) were isolated from the screen performed against RBD and 13 antibodies were isolated from the screen performed against NTD.
The specific binding of these antibodies was confirmed using direct ELISA against RBD versus NTD. SARS CoV-2 neutralization potency of each one of the antibodies was also evaluated using the plaque reduction neutralization assay as described above. As can be seen in Figure 4, the antibodies exhibited various degrees of In vitro neutralization activity. Particularly, some of the antibodies showed exceptional neutralization potency (for example BLK10, BLK14, BLK15, BLN1, or BLN14).
