Description

Anti-EGFR of cancer cell antibodies and uses thereof

The present invention relates to binding molecules that specifically bind to EGFR of cancer cells and their use.

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world, and 50% of people in their 70s develop colorectal cancer and about 1 in 10 people develop malignant tumors. These results vary by nationality but are the second highest cancer-related mortality in the West, and the first among smokers (Parker et al., 1996).

One of the factors associated with this major cancer-related death disease may be called EGFR. The growth and development of cancer cells can be caused by a variety of causes, but it is typical to alter the specific signaling system resulting from genetic changes that regulate cell survival, proliferation, mobility, and differentiation, and thus the basic mechanism of immortalization. Accompanying (Huang Sm., Et al 1999). In particular, EGFR, which is one of the ErbB family receptors, is also called ErbB1, which means breast, gastric, ovarian, non-small cell lung cancer, head and neck cancer, It is known to cause immortalization in solid cancers including prostate cancer (DS Salomon et al., 1995).

As such, EGFR is a potent prognostic factor for solid cancers. Increased expression of EGFR has been linked to decreased overall survival rate (OS) or recurrence-free survival (RFS). In addition, 70% of studies related to cervical cancer, bladder cancer, and esophageal cancer, and 52% of studies related to pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, endometrium, pancreas, and stomach cancer reported decreased OS and RFS due to increased EGFR expression. (R.I. Nicholson., Et al 2001) (Table. 1.).

The first FDA approved (2004) therapeutic EGFR-targeted monoclonal antibody is Cetuximab and is still the most widely used to date. The approved field of treatment is Metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC), and non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is in clinical trial 3 (Pirker R. et al., 2009). Cetuximab is a chimeric monoclonal antibody with affinity (10 -10 ), which is more affinity than naturally occurring EGF, using IgG1 in Ig format. It inhibits the binding of EGF, vascular endotherial growth factor (VEGF) and IL-8, and inhibits Ras / Raf / MAP, AKT and JAK / STAT pathways. This causes an increase in cell death by stopping the G1 phase of the cell cycle (M. Ng, D. Cunningham et al., 2004).

Next, the FDA and EMEA approved antibodies were Panitumumab, which was composed of fully human antibodies with XenoMouse as a template unlike Cetuximab (MJ Mendez 1997. CRC and Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) caused by K-ras). (O'bryne KJ et al 2009), however, as with Cetuximab, 90% of patients developed side effects of skin rash when they were actually administered to patients and needed further treatment (Van Cutsem). et al., 2007).

In contrast, Nimotuzumab, developed as an anti-EGFR antibody that significantly reduces skin rash, was approved by EMEA in 2008. Nimotuzumab has an affinity of 10 -8 . Notably, the antibody had no oscillating side effects in animal studies such as Cercopithecus aethiops sabaeus (Green Monkeys) (Arteaga et al., 2007). It is believed that this side effect less than the two approved antibodies mentioned above is due to relatively 10-100 times less antigen-antibody affinity (Tikhomirov I, et al., 2009). This is because EGFR is not overexpressed in normal cells, resulting in less binding to normal cells compared to cancer cells, and low affinity and thus no unwanted toxicity (Garrido G et al., 2009). Nimotuzumab has lower side effects than other therapeutic agents, but is known as a humanized antibody of mouse origin (Mateo C et al., 1997) (Table. 3.).

An object of the present invention is to provide a binding molecule that specifically binds to EGFR of cancer cells produced from human cells.

It is another object of the present invention to provide an antibody-drug conjugate in which a drug for treating cancer cells is bound to a binding molecule that specifically binds to EGFR of cancer cells.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a pharmaceutical composition for treating cancer.

The antibody according to the present invention can be used in the form of a drug-conjugated antibody-drug conjugate. When an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), that is, an immunoconjugate, is used for local delivery of a drug, the drug moiety can be targeted to the infected cells. If the drug is administered without conjugation, This can lead to unacceptable levels of toxicity. By increasing the selectivity of polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) as well as drug-linking and drug-releasing properties, the maximum efficacy and minimal toxicity of the ADC can be improved.

Conventional means of attaching the drug moiety to the antibody, ie, via covalent linkage, generally results in a heterogeneous molecular mixture in which the drug moiety is attached to numerous sites on the antibody. For example, cytotoxic drugs can typically be conjugated with an antibody, often through numerous lysine residues of the antibody, to produce a heterogeneous antibody-drug conjugate mixture. Depending on the reaction conditions, such heterogeneous mixtures typically have an antibody distribution between 0 and about 8 or more attached to the drug moiety. In addition, each aliquot of the conjugate with a specific integer ratio drug moiety-to-antibody is a potentially heterogeneous mixture in which the drug moiety is attached to various sites on the antibody. Antibodies are large, complex, structurally diverse biomolecules, and often have many reactive functional groups. Reactivity with linker reagents and drug-linker intermediates depends on factors such as pH, concentration, salt concentration and cosolvent.

Through the antibody, antibody-drug conjugate, and diagnostic method specifically binding to EGFR of cancer cells according to the present invention, it is possible to diagnose the occurrence of cancer, it can be used as a method for treating cancer.

In order to prevent nonspecific binding, the 3% milk powder solution diluted in PBS was reacted at 37 ° C for 1 hour, and then soluble Fab molecules were inoculated into each well and reacted at 37 ° C for 1 hour. Anti-human kappa L chain pAb (Sigma-Aldrich) conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (HRPO) was used at a dilution of 1: 3000 to analyze the antibody bound to the antigen. The substrate used was TMB (3,3'5,5'-tetramethyl bezidine) (Sigma-Aldrich) and the absorbance was measured on a 450 nm ELISA reader (Biorad, USA).

1.5 Flow cytometry analysis

FACS were all performed at 4 ° C. In order to analyze Fab molecules bound to cells, A431 and DU145 cells were used as positive cell lines at about 5 × 10 5 cell / tube, and HepG2 and NIH3T3 were used as negative cell lines. The cells were washed with wash buffer containing 2% FBS, 1% NaN 3 in PBS (137mM NaCL, 3mM KCl, 8mM Na 2 HPO 4 , 1mM KH 2 PO 4 , Ph7.3) , Cetuximab and soluble Fabs (EG L2 ~ L6) were bound for 40 minutes. After washing three times, FBS (Fluorescein isothiocyanate) (Sigma-Aldrich) conjugated with goat anti-κL light chain pAb was diluted in PBSB (PBS containing 2% EBS) for 30 minutes. After washing three times with PBSB, FACScan (Becton Dickinson, USA) was used to measure the cells bound to the antibody.

The host E. coli used TG1 for Fab production including VH-CH and VL-CL. Inoculate the cells in 25ml 2x YT / ACT medium for spawn culture and incubate overnight at 27 ° C, then re-inoculate 2.5L 2x YT / ACT with 1% antifoam in log phase. Incubated until. By incubating the cultured cells with 0.02% arabinose and 0.1 mM IPTG for 15 hours at 27 ° C, the water-soluble Fab antibodies were expressed.

The supernatant was obtained by centrifugation at 6500 rpm for 10 minutes, and then only insoluble protein was precipitated using ammonium sulfate precipitation. Centrifugation was performed at 13000 rpm for 30 minutes, and only precipitated insoluble protein was collected and resuspended in PBS. 5 ml of CNBr-activated sepharose (Pharmacia) was added to the suspension, followed by shaking for 1 hour at 4 ° C. to allow anti-human IgG (Fab) '2 and Fab antibodies to bind.

Centrifugation was performed at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes to remove other proteins that could not bind anti-human IgG (Fab) '2. The obtained CNBr-activated sepharose beads were washed in a Bunchner funnel (Pharmacia), followed by washing with 50 ml of PBS. To remove Fab binding from CNBr-activated sepharose, 0.2M Glycine-HCl, 5 ml of pH2.9 was used as extraction buffer. The extracted solution was neutralized with Tris-HCl (pH 9.0) to prevent denaturation of Fab structure with pH.

1.7 Immunofluorescence assay

Immunofluorescence was used to verify whether anti-EGFR human Fabs are attached to naïve EGFR to form dimers and cause internalization. A431 was used as the EGFR positive cell line and NIH3T3 was used as the EGFR negative cell line. These cells were inoculated in 24 well cell culture dishes (SPL, Korea) with coverslips at 5 x 10 4 / well, respectively, and incubated for 12 hours to acclimate to the cover glass surface.

Fab antibodies were inoculated at a concentration of 10 ug / ml and incubated at 5% CO 2 , 37 ° C. for about 3 hours. In order to remove the Fab bound to the EGFR remaining on the cell surface was washed three times with stripping buffer consisting of 50 mM glycine (pH2.8), 500mM NaCl. In order to fix the cells, 4% paraformaldehyde was prepared in PBS and reacted for 10 minutes at room temperature. After washing three times with PBS, -20 ° C acetone was added for 30 seconds to induce the generation of pores on the cell surface. PBS-2% FBS was used as a blocker to prevent nonspecific binding after three rewashes with PBS. In order to detect Fab antibodies inserted into cells via internalization, Fluorescein isothiocyanate (Sigma-Aldrich) conjugated with goat anti-κL pAb was added and analyzed by Olympus LX70 FV300 confocal microscope (Japan) 488 nM Laser. .

1.8 Phosphotyrosine inhibition assay

It was confirmed that EG L2 to L6 Fab antibodies bound to EGFR can inhibit tyrosine phosphorylation, which is one of the signal transductions that occur in actual cells. The cell line of interest was A431 and Cetuximab-Fab and Panitumumab-Fab as positive antibodies and anti-IL15 as negative antibodies were used.

A431 was dispensed at 1 × 10 5 cells / well into 24well cell culture plates (SPL, Korea) and adapted for 12 hours. Incubated for 24 hours in the EBS-excluded body to be a Serum starved condition. 20 nm EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) (R & D system) was added to each well, and Fab antibodies were added at 10 nM and 40 nM at the same time and reacted at 37 ° C. for 5 minutes at 5% CO 2 . After washing twice with PBS, RIW buffer solution (25 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.6, 150 mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1% sodium deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS, 2ug / ml leupeptin, 2ug / ml) was added to each well. Aprotinin (1mM Na 3 VO 4 , 1mM PMSF) 100ul was added to react for 10 minutes at room temperature to induce cell lysis.

Lysates were obtained and centrifuged to remove unlyzed cells, and only the supernatant was taken and protein quantified with Bradford (Biorad) solution. The prepared 10% SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel) was loaded into the well at a concentration of 400 ug / ml and electrophoresed, and transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane for 15 volts for 7 minutes through an iBlot gel transfer system (Invitrogen). I was. Blocking the nitrofiber membranes with PBS-3% BSA followed by addition of mouse anti-phophotyrosine (Millipore) or mouse anti-Actin (Millipore). Goat anti-mouse Fc Alkaline phoaphatase (Sigma-aldrich) was then added, and NBT / BCIP (Duchefa) was used as a substrate to observe the blot signal.

1.9 Surface plasmon resonance (SPR)

Surface plasmon resonance experiments were performed to determine the affinity and epitope differences between Cetuximab-Fab, Panitumumab-Fab, and EG L2 to L6 Fab. The instrument used was a Biacore X biosensor (Biacore AB, Sweden) and 400 RU of EGFR-Fc (R & D system) antigen was added to the carboxyl methylated dextran of Fc2 from the CM5 sensor chip (GE Healthcare Bio-sciences AB, Sweden). immobilized to a value of (response units). BSA was immobilized to Fc1 to serve as reference value.

To determine the affinity of each antibody, EP-HBS buffer (10 mM Hepes, 150 mM Sodium Chloride, 3 mM EDTA, 0.005% Polysorbate 20) at concentrations of 100 nM, 50 nM, 25 nM, 12.5 nM and 6.25 nM (GE Healthcare Bio-sciences AB , Sweden) to obtain a dissociation constant (K off ) and a binding constant (K on ) by injecting a flow rate at 30 ul / min, and affinity (K D ) was derived from these. 10 mM Glycine-HCl (pH2.1) was injected at 30 ul / min flow rate for regeneration. In order to perform competitive epitope SPR, Cetuximab-Fab was injected at 400 nM 30ul / min for 120 seconds, and then EG L2 to L6 were injected again at a concentration of 50nm to 200nM to confirm the epitope difference with Cetuximan.

Example 2. Characteristics of Antibody Libraries

2.1 Panning Combination for EGFR Specific Phage Antibody Increase from HuDVFab-8L Human Fab Antibody Library

Pahge rescue using EX-12 helper phage was performed through human combinatorial Fab antibody library (HuDVFab-8L), through which phages bound to human Fab antibodies specific for EGFR were extracted. HuDVFab-8L used is Human naive heavy chain sublibrary HuNH-D2 (4.5 x 10 9 in size) and human naive kappa light containing unidentified antigen binding capacity. chains) (HuL1 to HuL8), which consists of a sublibrary named HuDVFab-L1 to L8 (Hur et al., 2010). Initial panning was performed via the BRASIL technique using A431 as a positively expressing positive cell line in EGFR naïve form. U937 cell lines were also used negatively to remove phages that had nonspecific binding.

Four cell pannings were repeated for amplification of phage antibodies bound to EGFR expressed on the surface of A431 cells. The yield of phage derived after each round of panning was confirmed that the phage antibody binding to A431 was amplified by about 100 to 10,000 times (Table 1).

However, since A431 cells contain not only EGFR but also numerous molecules expressed on the cell membrane, phage antibodies derived from cell panning are not very specific for EGFR. Therefore, in order to derive antibody-phage specific for EGFR, the recombinant EGFR-Fc protein was coated on an immuno tube and subjected to biopanning twice (Table 2).

The yield of phage derived after one biopanning showed that the increase of EGFR-specific phage-antibodies was increased in HuDVFab-L2, HuDVFab-L4, HuDVFab-L5, and HuDVFab-L8 sublibrary. Could.

No noticeable increase was seen in the HuDVFab-L1, HuDVFab-L3, or HuDVFab-L6 sub-libraries, and in HuDVFab-L7 there was no increase in phage-antibody specific to EGFR. In the subsequent second panning, only the HuDVFab-L1, HuDVFab-L3, and HuDVFab-L6 sub-libraries were performed, but no significant increase in EGFR specific phage-antibody was observed in HuDVFab-L3 and HuDVFab-L6.

2.2 EGFR specific human Fab clone

To identify monoclonal levels of EGFR specific human Fab clones, 24 E. coli clones were selected from five sub-libraries of HuDVFab-L2, HuDVFab-L3, HuDVFab-L4, HuDVFab-L5 and HuDVFab-L6. Water-soluble Fabs were obtained from the supernatants obtained by culturing E. coli TG1, and subjected to monoclonal ELISA to screen for E. coli producing Fabs specific for EGFR and E with double positive binding signals. The V H gene of the .coli strain was subjected to DNA sequencing (data not attached).

DNA sequencing confirmed the selection of E. coli containing five different genes, which were named EGL2, EGL3, EGL4, EGL5 and EGL6, respectively. In order to confirm the antigen-antibody specificity of these Fab clones, ELISA was performed on 6 proteins including EGFR-Fc, sEGFR, Her2-Fc, HGFR, BSA, and MBP-IL-15 (FIG. 1). Cetuximab was added as a positive control antibody.

As a result, as shown in FIG. 1, in all five clones, the expressed water-soluble Fab protein had specific binding ability to EGFR-Fc and sEGFR antigens, but did not bind to the other four antigen proteins. This shows that Fab clone has specific binding capacity to EGFR.

In addition, the binding capacity of Fab clones was measured by flow cytometry analysis. The antigenic protein used in the above experiment is a recombinant protein, and if it is artificially attached to the plastic surface, abnormal structural changes may occur in the intrinsic protein structure, which may cause a problem in measuring the binding force. A431 cells and DU145 cells were used to determine whether Fab clones bind to the unique EGFR distributed in the cell membrane. Cetuximab was used as a positive control antibody, and LP4, an antibody specific for PDC-E2, was used as a negative control antibody.

As a result, as shown in FIG. 2, the water-soluble Fab antibodies obtained from Fab clones had a stronger effective fluorescence intensity (Mean) than the goat anti-human kappa FITC conjugated used as secondary antibodies in A431 and DU145 as in Cetuximab. fluorescent intensity (MFI). No significant increase in MFI was seen when the anti-EGFR Fab antibody was reacted with HepG2, an EGFR negative cell line. This showed that the five EGFR Fab clones still retain specific binding to EGFR, which occurs naturally in cells.

2.3 Internalization Function of Fab Antibodies

Based on the above results, immunohistochemical staining was performed to confirm whether five Fab clones can exert internalization function into cells when treated with EGFR specific cells. Five purified Fab antibodies were incubated at 10 ug / ml in A431 cells and NIH3T3 cells for 3 hours at 5% CO 2 , 37 ° C, and then stripped with stripping buffers to remove bound antibodies that remained on the cell surface without internalization. buffer) (50 mM glycine (pH2.8), 500 mM NaCl).

As a result of observing cells treated with Fab antibody using confocal microscopy, as shown in FIG. 3, it was confirmed that internalization occurred in A431 cells treated with Fab of EG L2, EG L3 and EG L4, but EG L5 and EG Specific internalization function could not be confirmed in A431 cells treated with L6 Fab. In addition, there was no change in NIH3T3 cells, EGFR negative cells.

2.4 Binding Specificity and Function of Anti-EGFR Fab Antibodies

In contrast to the in vivo experiment of the five clones selected through the panning it was confirmed that the binding to murine (EGFR). Recombinant murine EGFR was coated at 5 ug / ml by the same method as previously performed ELISA and reacted with EG L2, EG L3, EG L4, EG L5, and EG L6 Fab.

As shown in FIG. 4, specifically, EG L3 showed high binding to rmEGFR with other antibodies. EG L2 showed similar binding to Cetuximab or Panitumumab at rmEGFR, and EG L4, EG L5 and EGL6 showed very little or no binding signal.

From these inferences, it could be assumed that EG L3 will have different epitope binding sites than Cetuximab or Panitumumab.

EGFR combined with the EGF ligand forms high levels of dimers and then initiates phosphorylation at the C-terminus of tyrosine residues, resulting in immortalization of cancer cells. Accordingly, in order to confirm whether the clones could inhibit the propagation of cancer to cancer cells, a phosphotyrosine inhibition assay was performed.

As a result of treatment of 20nM EGF alone or with Fab antibody in A431 cells, it was confirmed that tyrosine phosphorylation was inhibited to a level similar to that of the positive control Cetuximab-Fab than when EGF alone was treated. .

In addition, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) was analyzed using Biacore X to determine the binding affinity of EG L2, EG L3, EG L4, EG L5 and EG L6 Fab antibodies.

After immobilizing the EGFR-Fc antigen on the CM5 sensor chip, the purified Fab antibodies were processed using CNBR-activated sepharose. The dissociation constants (KD), the binding affinity of EG L2, EG L3, EG L4, EG L5 and EG L6 Fab antibodies, were determined to be 54.3 nM, 40.4 nM, 3.92 nM, 178 nM and 282 nM, respectively. They were found to be close to or below the KD value of the commercially available Fab forms of Cetuximab and Panitumumab at 5.89 nM and 353 pM, respectively, when measuring SPR (FIG. 6 and Table 3).

To confirm whether the five EG Fab antibodies have different epitope binding regions from Cetuximab, a competitive SPR assay was performed. Cetuximab-Fab was allowed to bind.

As a result, as shown in Table 4 and Figure 7, the change in the RU did not occur even if the treatment at a concentration higher than about 400nM level. In addition, EG L2, EG L3, EG L4, EG L5, and EG L6 Fab were treated with 400 nM after 400 nM Cetuximab was treated. In the case of EG L3 and EG L4, even if Cetuximab was treated, EG L3 and EG L4 alone It was confirmed to recover to the RU value level when treated. It was determined that EG L3 and EG L4 have different epitopes from Cetuximab.
