FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention relates generally to multispecific antibodies and to multispecific activatable antibodies that specifically bind to two or more different targets or epitopes, as well as to methods of making and using these multispecific antibodies and/or multispecific activatable antibodies in a variety of therapeutic, diagnostic and prophylactic indications.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Monoclonal antibodies have emerged as molecules for therapeutic intervention in a variety of disorders. However, targeting or neutralizing a single protein is not always sufficient for effective treatment of certain disorders, which limits the therapeutic use of monospecific monoclonal antibodies. Moreover, antibody-based therapies have proven effective treatments for some diseases but in some cases, toxicities due to broad target expression have limited their therapeutic effectiveness. In addition, antibody-based therapies have ted other limitations such as rapid clearance from the circulation following administration.
Accordingly, there exists a need for antibodies and therapeutics that enable targeting of multiple targets and/or multiple epitopes with a single molecule and also e for increased ivity for the intended s and for a reduction of e effects upon administration.

Suitable proteases for use in the multispeeifie aetiyatahle antibodies of the disclosure are determined based on the protease expression at the intended site of treatment and/or sis, in some embodiments, the protease is u—type plasminogen activator (11PA, also referred to as urol Sinica 26, 649—658 (2005); Chan and Carter, Nat.

The general concept for construction of bispecific antibodies is to linlt together protein~binding domains, usually based on multiple immunoglohulin domains, in order to construct a molecule that is capable of binding to two or more target antigens and demonstrates lgG—lilte physiological distribution, pharinacoltinetics, and effector function The latter may include antibody-dependent xicity tADCC), complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), T~cell recruitment (Bi'fEsTM) (see eg, Baeuerle, PA. and Reinhardt, (3., Cancer Res. 69, 494l—4944 (2009,), and Tandui‘ibsTM (see Cochlovius et al., Cancer Res.

Thus, there remains a need for effective antibody—hased th erapeuties that, exhibit improved safety, ego reduced toxicity: {999182} lvlultispecitic activatable antibodies of the disclosure are safer than multispecific reg, hispecific) dies because pecil‘ie activatahle antibody activity/ [Annotation] CLGUS Aug 2021 is restricted to a localized disease environment. In some embodiments, a multispecific activatable antibody is an immune effector cell engaging multispecific activatable antibody.
In some embodiments, a pecific activatable antibody is a T-cell engaging multispecific activatable dy. In some embodiments, a multispecific activatable antibody recognizes two or more targets. In some embodiments, a multispecific activatable antibody comprises an IgG-scFv format confers the long-half-life properties of an IgG. In some embodiments, such a multispecific activatable antibody is r modulated through the use of Fc mutations in the FcRn binding site (Petkova, S. B. et al., Intl. Immunol. 18, 1759-1769 (2006)); Deng, R. et al., mAbs 4, 101-109 (2012); Olafson, T Methods Mol.
Biol. 907, 537-556 (2012). In some embodiments, such a multispecific activatable antibody includes mutations in the Fc domain, such as an N297A mutation (Lund, J. et al., Mol. l. 29, 53-39 (1992)) that reduces IgG effector functions (ADCC and CDC) in order to reduce off-target toxicities.
Multispecific activatable antibodies leverage the up-regulation of protease activity widely recognized as a hallmark of le disease states to achieve disease-tissuespecific targeting of such therapeutics. The activatable dy is based on the use of an IgG antibody, or fragment thereof, such as a scFv region, Fab region, single VH or VL domain that has been modified to include a g moiety (MM), linked to the antibody through a cleavable moiety (CM), such as a protease-cleavable moiety (see, e.g., PCT International Publication Number International Publication Number Alternatively, a non-antibody protein domain (see e.g., PCT International Publication Number WO 96838, published August 26, 2010; Boersma, Y.L. et al., J. Biol. Chem. 286, 41273-41285 (2011)) may be used to achieve one or more binding specificities. A multispecific antibody, like conventional IgG, can be used as the starting point to produce a multispecific activatable antibody. Such a multispecific activatable antibody would allow the high-affinity ing of all antigens recognized by the parental pecific dy, but with -specificity dictated by the selectively activated cleavable linker. Depending upon the multispecific format used, the MM and CM might be placed at the N- or C- terminus of the appropriate domain.
A multispecific activatable antibody ses at least one IgG-derived domain with icity towards a first antigen, linked synthetically or biosynthetically to another domain (which may be derived from an IgG or other protein) with specificity for [Annotation] CLGUS Aug 2021 binding to a second antigen. Additional specificities may be added through linking such a multispecific activatable dy to one or more additional domains conferring additional binding specificities for the first antigen, the second antigen, or additional antigens. In some embodiments, a multispecific activatable antibody has one or more of these s masked by an appropriate masking moiety (MM). Each of the multispecific formats described in Figure 1 can potentially be converted into a multispecific activatable antibody by masking one or more of the antigen binding es of one or more of the immunoglobulin domains. Examples of suitable multispecific activatable antibody s are shown in Figures 3A, and 5-9.
The use of a scFv domain to confer specificity to a specific antigen allows for a modular construction of multispecific antibodies and multispecific activatable antibodies. The use of scFv domain(s) fused to the terminus of IgG heavy or light chains for construction of bispecific antibodies has been previously described (see e.g., Orcutt, K.D. et al., Prot. Eng. Design Select. 23, 221-228 (2010)); Dong et al., (2011). This format ("IgG-scFv") allows a conventional IgG to be converted into a bispecific antibody wherein a first icity is encoded in the variable s of the IgG and a second specificity is encoded in the scFv domains attached through a flexible linker region. Variations of this format include fusing scFv domains at the N- or ini of the heavy or light chains; the scFvs may have the same or differing antigen-binding specificities (Spangler, J. B. et al., J.
Mol. Biol. 422, 532-544 (2012)). In addition, through the use of heavy-chain heterodimers (for example, using knob-hole or similar constructs), scFvs of differing specificities may be attached to the N- or C-terminus of each heavy chain.
In some embodiments, a multispecific activatable antibody has the IgG variable domains masked. In some embodiments, a pecific table dy has the scFv domains masked. In some embodiments, a multispecific activatable antibody has both the IgG variable domains and the scFv domains masked. In some embodiments, one antibody domain of a multispecific activatable antibody has specificity for a target n and another antibody domain has icity for a T-cell surface antigen. In some ments, one antibody domain of a multispecific activatable antibody has specificity for a target antigen and another antibody domain has specificity for another target n.
In some ments, one antibody domain of a multispecific activatable antibody has specificity for an epitope of a target antigen and another dy domain has specificity for another epitope of the target antigen.

[Annotation] CLGUS Aug 2021 [000196] As utilized in accordance with the present disclosure, the following terms, unless ise indicated, shall be understood to have the following gs.
As used , the term "antibody" refers to immunoglobulin molecules and immunologically active portions of immunoglobulin (Ig) molecules, i.e., molecules that contain an antigen binding site that specifically binds (immunoreacts with) an antigen. By 2020200981 "specifically bind" or oreacts with" or "immunospecifically bind" is meant that the antibody reacts with one or more antigenic determinants of the desired antigen and does not react with other polypeptides or binds at much lower affinity (Kd > 10-6). Antibodies include, but are not limited to, onal, monoclonal, chimeric, fully human, domain antibody, single chain, Fab, and F(ab')2 fragments, scFvs, and an Fab expression library.
The basic antibody structural unit is known to comprise a tetramer. Each tetramer is composed of two identical pairs of polypeptide chains, each pair having one "light" (about 25 kDa) and one "heavy" chain (about 50-70 kDa). The terminal portion of each chain includes a variable region of about 100 to 110 or more amino acids ily responsible for antigen recognition. The carboxy-terminal portion of each chain defines a constant region primarily responsible for effector on. In general, antibody molecules obtained from humans relate to any of the classes IgG, IgM, IgA, IgE and IgD, which differ from one another by the nature of the heavy chain present in the molecule.
Certain classes have subclasses as well, such as IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, and others.
Furthermore, in humans, the light chain may be a kappa chain or a lambda chain.
The term "monoclonal antibody" (mAb) or "monoclonal dy composition", as used herein, refers to a population of antibody molecules that n only one molecular species of antibody molecule consisting of a unique light chain gene product and a unique heavy chain gene product. In particular, the complementarity determining regions (CDRs) of the monoclonal antibody are identical in all the molecules of the population. MAbs contain an antigen binding site capable of immunoreacting with a ular epitope of the antigen characterized by a unique binding affinity for it.
The term en-binding site" or "binding portion" refers to the part of the immunoglobulin molecule that ipates in antigen binding. The antigen binding site is formed by amino acid residues of the N-terminal variable ("V") regions of the heavy ("H") and light ("L") . Three highly divergent hes within the V regions of the heavy and light chains, ed to as "hypervariable regions," are interposed between more conserved flanking stretches known as "framework regions," or "FRs". Thus, the term "FR" refers to amino acid sequences that are naturally found between, and adjacent to, hypeiyariahle regions in irnmunoglobulins. in an antibody molecule, the three hypervariahle regions of a light chain and the three hypervariahle regions of a heavy chain are disposed relative to each other in three dimensional space to form an antigen-binding surface.

In particular, conservative amino acid replacements are contemplated. Conservative replacements are those that take place within a family of amino acids that are related in their side chains. Genetically encoded amino acids are generally divided into families: (l) acidic amino acids are aspartate, glutamate; (2) basic amino acids are lysine, arginine, histidine; (3) non~polar amino acids are e, valine, leucine, isoletrcine, proline, phenylalanine, methionine, tryptophan, and (-4) unchar ed polar amino acids are glycine, asparagine, glutamine, cysteine, serine, threonine, tyrosine. The hydrophilic amino acids e arginine, asparagine, aspartate, gltrtamine, glutamate, histidine, lysine, serine, and threonine.
The hydrophobic amino acids include alanine, cysteine, cine, leucine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, tryptophan, tyrosine and valine. Gther families of amino acids include (i) serine and threonine, which are the aliphatic~hydroxy family; (ii) asparagine and glutarnine, which are the amide containing family; (iii) alanine, valine, e and isoleucine, which are the aliphatic family; and (iv) phenylalanine, phan, and tyrosine, which are the aromatic family. For example, it is reasonable to expect that an isolated replacement of a leucine with an isoleucine or valine, an aspartate with a glutamate, a threonine with a serine, or a similar ement of an amino acid with a structurally related amino acid will not have a major effect on the g or properties of the resulting molecule, especially if the replacement does not e an amino acid within a, ork site. ‘Nhe‘ther an amino acid change results in a functional peptide can readily be determined by assaying the specific activity of the polypeptir e r erivative. Assays are described in detail herein. fragments or s of antibodies or glohulin molecules can be readily prepared by those of ordinary skill in the art. ln some embodiments, arnino— and carhoxy~termini of fragments or analogs occur near boundaries of onal domains ural and functional domains can be identified by comparison of the tide and/or amino acid sequence data to public or proprietary sequence databases.
Computerized comparison methods are used to identify sequence motifs or predicted protein conformation domains that occur in other proteins of known structure and/or function.
Methods to identify protein sequences that fold into a known three-dimensional structure are known. Bowie at a]. Science 253:164 (l99l). Thus, the ing examples demonstrate that those of slrill in the art can recognize sequence motifs and structural conformations that may be used to define structural and timctional domains in ance with the disclosure. {899216} ln some embodiments, amino acid substitutions are those that: (_ 1) reduce susceptibility to proteolysis, (:2) reduce susceptibility to oxidation, (3) alter binding affinity for forming protein complexes, (4) alter binding affinities, and (4) confer or modify othe physicochemical or functional properties of such s. Analogs can include various nruteins of a sequence other than the naturally—occurring peptide sequence. For example, single or multiple amino acid substitutions (for example, conservative amino acid substitutions) may be made in the natural ly~ occurring sequence (for example, in the portion of the polypeptide outside the domainiis) ‘orming intermolecular contacts. A conservative amino acid substitution should not substantially change the structural characteristics of the parent sequence (tag, a replacement amino acid should not tend to break a helix that occurs in the parent sequence, or disrupt other types of secondary structure that terizes the parent sequence). es of art—recognized polypeptide secondary and tertiary structures are described in Proteins, Structures and Molecular Principles hton, Ed, W. ll.

The term ved state, as used herein, refers to the condition of the specil‘ic activatable antibodies in the absence of cleavage of the CM by a protease, As discussed above, the term "inultispecitic activatable dies" is used herein to refer to a. specitic activatable antibody in both its uncleaved (native) state, as well as in its cleaved state. it will be apparent to the ordinarily skilled artisan that in some en'ibodin'ients, a cleaved niultispecilie activatable antibody may lack an MM due to cleavage of the CM by protease, resulting in release of at least the MM (cg, where the MM is not joined to the rnultispecilic activatable antibodies by a covalent bond tag, a disultide bond between cysteine residues). {999251} By activatable or switchable is meant that the m ultispecilic aetivatable antibody exhibits a first le *el of binding to a target when in a inhibited, masked or uncleaved state (to, a first conformation), and a second level of g to the , in the uninhibited, unrnaslred and/or cleaved state (126., a second conformation), where the second level of target binding is greater than the first level of binding. in general, the access of target to the corresponding AB of the inultispecitic activatahle antibody is greater in the presence of a cleaving agent capable ol‘cleaving the CM than in the absence of such a cleaving agent. Thus, when the nniltispecitic activatable antibody is in the uncleaved state, at least one AB is inhibited front target binding and can be masked from target binding (to, the first mation is such the AB cannot bind the target), and in the cleaved state the AB is not inhibited or is unmasked to target binding. $th52} The CM and AB of the multispeciiic aetivatable antibodies are selected so that the first AB represents a binding moiety for a first target and/or epitope, and the CM represents a substrate for a se that is ctr—localized with the target at a ent site or diagnostic site in a subject. The nniltispecitic activatable antibodies disclosed herein tind particular use where, for example, a protease capable of cleaving a site in the CM is present at relatively higher levels in target—containing tissue of a ent site or diagnostic site than in tissue of non—treatment sites (for example in healthy tissue). $th53} ln some embodiments, multispecific aetivatable antibodies provide for reduced toxicity and/or adverse side effects that could otherwise result from binding of the first AB at non—treatment sites if the AB were not masked or otherwise inhibited from binding its target. {$388254} ln general, a multispecific activatable antibody can be designed by selecting at first AB of interest and constructing the remainder of the activatable antibody so that, when conformationally constrained, the MM provides for masking of the AB or reduction of binding of the AB to its target. Structural design criteria, can be to be taken into account to provide for this functional feature, EtltltBZSS} Mnltispecitic activatable antibodies exhibiting a switchable phenotype of a desired dynamic range for target g in an inhibited versus an uninhibited contbrmation are ed. c range generally refers to a ratio of (a) a maximum de ,ected level of a parameter under a first set of conditions to (b) a minimum detected value of that parameter under a second set ot‘conditions. For e, in the context of a multispecific activatable antibr’ldy, the dynamic range refers to the ratio otta) a maximum detected level of target protein, binding to a multispecific table antibody in the presence of protease capable ofcleaving the CM of the activatable antibodies to (b) a minimum detected level of target n, binding to a multispecil'ic activatable antibody in the absence ofthe se. The dynamic range of a mnltispecilic activatable antibody can be calculated as the ratio of the equilibrium dissociation nt of a multispecific table antibody cleaving agent (rag, enzyme) treatment to the equilibrium dissociation constant of the activatable antibodies cleaving agent treatment. The r the dynamic range of a multispecilic activatable antibody, the better the switchable phenotype of the activatable dy.
Activatable antibodies having relatively higher dynamic range values (cg, greater than l) exhibit more ble switching phenotypes such that target protein binding by the activatable antibodies occurs to a r extent (egg, predominantly occurs) in the presence of a cleaving agent (c.g, ) capable of cleaving the CM of the activatable antibodies than in the absence of a cleaving agent. {999256} Multispecitic activa‘table antibodies can be provided in a variety of structural configurations. ary ae for at least a portion of a multispecific aetivatable antibody are provided below. it is specifically contemplated that the N— to C~terininal order of the first AB, the corresponding MM and CM may be reversed within an activatable antibody. it is also specifically contemplated that the CM and MM may overlap in amino acid sequence, cg, such that the CM is contained within the MM. 09‘1,..9 EiltltBZS’Z’} For example, at least a portion of the multispecitic activatable antibodies can be represented by the following formula (in order from an amino (N) terminal region to earboxyl (C) terminal region: (Mil/iiutjcirt/igiutjani (AB)~(Ch/l)~(h/ll\/ll {$90258} Where h'lM is a maskin g moiety, CM is a cleayable moiety, and AB is a first antibody or fragment f. lt should be noted that although MM and CM are ted as distinct components in the formulae above, in all exemplary embodiments ding formulae) disclosed herein it is plated that the amino acid sequences of the MM and the CM could overlap, nag, such that the CM is completely or partially contained within the MM. ln addition, the formulae aboye provide for additional amino acid sequences that may be positioned N~terminal or C—terminal to the activatable antibodies elements. {99925‘93 in certain embodiments, the MM is not a natural binding partner of the AB. in some embodiments, the MM contains no or substantially no gy to any natural binding partner of the AB. ln other embodiments the MM is no more than 55%;, l0%, l5%, %, 259/5, 30%, 35%, 409-43, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60945, 650/6, 70%, 75%, or "(3% similar to any natural binding partner of the AB. ln some ments, the MM is no more than 5%, l0%, 15%, 20%, 2.5%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 5(l%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 73%, 75%, or 80% identical to any natural binding partner of the AB. ln some ments, the MM is no more than 509/6 identical to any natural binding partner of the AB. in some embodiments, the MM is no more than 25% identical to any natural binding r of the AB. ln some embodiments, the MM is no more than 2t)% identical to any natural binding partner of the AB. in some embodiments, the MM is no more than l0% identical to any natural binding partner of the AB ltlllllzntll in many embodiments it may be desirable to insert one or more linkers, rag, flexible linkers, into the multispecil‘ic table antibody construct so as to provide for flexibility at one or more of the lVlM—ClVljunction, the (TM-AB junction, or both.

These modified amino acid sequences are designed to allow for controlled placement and/or dosage of the conjugated agent within a conjugated activatable antibody. For e, the activatable antibody can be engineered to include cysteine substitutions at positions on light and heavy chains that provide reactive thiol groups and do not negatively impact n folding and assembly, nor alter antigen [Annotation] CLGUS Aug 2021 binding. In some embodiments, the activatable antibody can be engineered to include or otherwise introduce one or more non-natural amino acid residues within the activatable antibody to provide suitable sites for conjugation. In some ments, the activatable antibody can be engineered to include or otherwise introduce enzymatically activatable e sequences within the activatable antibody sequence. 2020200981 Suitable linkers are described in the literature. (See, for example, Ramakrishnan, S. et al., Cancer Res. 44:201-208 (1984) bing use of MBS (M- maleimidobenzoyl-N-hydroxysuccinimide ester). See also, U.S. Patent No. 5,030,719, describing use of nated acetyl hydrazide derivative coupled to an antibody by way of an oligopeptide . Particularly suitable linkers include: (i) SMPT (4- succinimidyloxycarbonyl-alpha-methyl-alpha-(2-pridyl-dithio)-toluene (Pierce Chem. Co., Cat. (21558G); (ii) SPDP nimidyl-6 [3-(2-pyridyldithio) propionamido]hexanoate (Pierce Chem. Co., Cat #21651G); and (iii) LC-SPDP (sulfosuccinimidyl 6 [3-(2- pyridyldithio)-propianamide] hexanoate e Chem. Co. Cat. #2165-G. Additional linkers include, but are not limited to, SMCC, sulfo-SMCC, SPDB, or SPDB.
The linkers described above contain components that have different attributes, thus leading to conjugates with differing physio-chemical properties. For example, the linker SMPT contains a sterically hindered disulfide bond, and can form conjugates with increased stability. Disulfide linkages, are in general, less stable than other linkages because the disulfide linkage is cleaved in vitro, resulting in less conjugate available. 4] The reagent EDC (1-ethyl(3-dimethylaminopropyl))carbodiimide hydrochloride is useful to create a carboxamide starting with a carboxylic acid and a primary or secondary amine. Thus, EDC may be used to link lysine residues in an antibody with a carboxylic acid in a linker or toxin, or to link aspartate or glutamate residues in an antibody with an amine in a linker or toxin. Such conjugation ons utilizing EDC may be enhanced by addition of NHS (N-hydroxysuccinimide) or sulfo-NHS roxy oxysulfonylsuccinimide). on of NHS or sulfo-NHS to such conjugation reactions may enhance the rate, completeness, selectivity, and/or reproducibility of the ation reactions.
In some embodiments, the linkers are cleavable. In some embodiments, the linkers are non-cleavable. In some embodiments, two or more linkers are present. The two or more linhers are all the same, 6g, cleavable or non—cleavable, or the two or more linlrers are different, eg, at least one cleavable and at least one eavable. {$388296} The present disclosure utilizes several methods for attaching agents to Abs of the multispecific antibodies and/or multispecific activatable antibodies: (a) attachment to the carbohydrate moieties of the AB, or (b) attachment to sullhydryl groups of the AB, or (c) ment to amino groups of the AB, or (d) attachment to carboxylate groups of the AB. ing to the disclosure, ABs may be covalently attached to an agent through an intermediate linlrer having at least two reactive groups, one to react with AB and one to react with the agent. The linlrer, which may include any ible organic compound, can be chosen such that the eaction with AB (or a cut) does not adversely affect AB reactivity and selectivity. Furthermore, the attachment of linker to agent might not destroy the activity of the agent. Suitable linkers for reaction with oxidized dies or oxidized antibody fragments include those containing an amine selected item the group consisting ol’priinary amine, secondary aniine, hydrazine, hydrazide, hydroxylamine, phenylhydrazine, semicarbazide and thiosemicarbazide groups. Such reactive functional groups may exist as part of the structure of the linlrer, or may be introduced by suitable chemical inodil'ication of linkers not containing such groups. {899297} According to the t disclosure, suitable linkers for attachment to reduced ABS of the pecitic antibodies and/or rnultispecific activatable dies include those having certain reactive groups capable of on with a sull'hydiyl group of a d antibody or fragment. Such reactive groups include, but are not limited to: reactive haloalkyl groups 6 including, for example, haloacetyl groups), curibenzoate groups and groups capable ofMichael—type addition reactions (including, for e, maleimides and groups of the type described by Mitra and lawton, l979, J. Amer. Chem. Soc. lGl : 3697’— 3 l l0).
{Gllllzglll According to the present disclosure, suitable linlrers for attachment to neither oxidized nor reduced ABs of the mtdtispecitic dies and/or n'iultispecific activatable antibodies include those having certain firnctional groups capable of reaction with the primary amino groups present in fied lysine residues in the AB. Such reactive groups include, but are not limited to, Nl’lS car‘boxylic or carbonic esters, sulto—NHS carboxylic or carbonic esters, 4—nitrophenyl cai'boxylic or carbonic esters, pentatluorophenyl carboxylic or carbonic , acyl imidazoles, isocyanates. and isothiocyanates.
Etltlt3299} According to the present disclosure, suitable s for attachment to r oxidized not reduced ABs include those having certain functional groups capable of on with the earboxylic acid groups present in aspartate or glutamate residues in the AB, which have been activated with suitable reagents. Suitable activating reagents include EDC, with or without added Nl-lS or sulfo—Nl-lS, and other dehydrating agents utilized for carhoxamide formation. In these instances, the functional groups present in the le linkers would include primary and secondary amines, hydrazines, hydroxylamines, and hydrazides. lllllllilllli} The agent may be attached to the linker before or after the linker is attached to the AB. in certain applications it may be desirable to first produce an AB—linker intermediate in which the linker is free of an associated agent. Depending upon the particular application, a specific agent may then be covalently attached to the . ln other embodiments the AB is first attached to the MM, CM and associated linkers and then attached to the linker for conjugation es. llltll} Branched Linkers: in ic embodiments, branched linkers that have multiple sites for attael'nnent of agents are utilized. For multiple site linkers, a sing e covalent attachment to an AB would result in an AB—linker intermediate capable of binding an agent at a number of sites. The sites may be aldehyde or sullhydryl groups or any chemical site to which agents can be attached. {999MB} Alternatively, higher specific activity (or higher ratio of agents to AB) can be achieved by attachment of a single site linker at a plurality of sites on the AB. This ity of sites may be introduced into the AB by either of two methods. first, one may generate multiple aldehyde groups and/or sullhydryl groups in the same AB. Second, one may attach to an aldehyde or sulthydryl of the A8 a "branched linker" having multiple functional sites for subsequent attachment to linkers. The functional sites of the branched linker or le site linker maybe de or sulthydryl , or may be any al site to which linkers may be ed. Still higher speeilic activities may be obtained by ing these two approaches, that is, attaching multiple site linkers at several sites on the AB.
EtitltlStB} Clem/able Linkers: Peptide linkers that are susceptible to cleavage by enzymes of the complement system, such as but not limited to urokinase, tissue plasminogen activator. tiypsin, plasrnin, or another enzyme haying proteolytic activity may be used in one embodiment of the present disclosure. According to one method of the present disclosure, an agent is attached via a linker susceptible to cleavage by complement.

Since many tumors naturally release high levels of glutathione (a reducing agent) this can reduce the ide bonds with subsequent release of the agent at the site of delivery. in certain specific embodiments the reducing agent that would modify a CM would also modily the linlter of the conjugated activatahle antibody, {fililBllti} Spacers and ble Elements: in still another embodiment, it may he necessary to construct the linker in such away as to optimize the spacing between the agent and the AB of the activatable antibody, This may be accomplished by use ofa linker of the general structure: W (CHfin Q wherein W is either ~~NH——CHg—— or "Clip; Q is an amino acid, peptide; and n is an integer from t) to 20. lilillliiil’fl in still other ments, the linlrer may comprise a spacer element and a cleavable element. The spacer element serves to position the cleavahle element away from the core of the AB such that the cleavable element is more accessible to the enzyme responsible for cleavage. Certain of the branched s described above may serve as spacer elements, 8} Throughout this discussion, it should be understood that the attachment of linker to agent (or of spacer element to cleavable element, or ble element to agent) need not he particular rnode of attachment or reaction Any reaction providing a product of le stability and biological ibility is acceptable. {999399} Serum l’emenr and Selection nfLinkers: According to one method of the t disclosure, when release of an agent is desired, an AB that is an antibody of a class that can activate complement is used. The resulting conjugate retains both the ability to hind antigen and activate the complement cascade. Thus, according to this embodiment of the present disclosure, an agent is joined to one end of the cleayalile linlter or cleavahle element and the other end of the linker group is attached to a specch site on the AB, For example, if the agent has an hydroxy group or an amino group, it may be attach ed to the carboxy terminus of a peptide, amino acid or other suitably chosen linker Via an ester or amide bond, respectively. For example, such agents may be ed to the linker peptide [Annotation] CLGUS Aug 2021 via a Carbodiimide reaction. If the agent contains functional groups that would interfere with attachment to the linker, these interfering functional groups can be blocked before attachment and deblocked once the product conjugate or intermediate is made. The opposite or amino terminus of the linker is then used either directly or after further modification for binding to an AB that is capable of activating complement. 2020200981 Linkers (or spacer elements of linkers) may be of any desired length, one end of which can be covalently attached to ic sites on the AB of the activatable antibody.
The other end of the linker or spacer element may be attached to an amino acid or peptide linker. 1] Thus when these conjugates bind to antigen in the ce of complement the amide or ester bond that attaches the agent to the linker will be cleaved, resulting in release of the agent in its active form. These conjugates, when administered to a subject, will accomplish delivery and release of the agent at the target site, and are particularly effective for the in vivo delivery of pharmaceutical agents, antibiotics, antimetabolites, antiproliferative agents and the like as presented in but not limited to those in Table 4.
Linkers for Release without ment Activation: In yet another application of targeted delivery, release of the agent without complement activation is d since activation of the complement cascade will ultimately lyse the target cell.
Hence, this approach is useful when delivery and release of the agent should be accomplished without g the target cell. Such is the goal when ry of cell ors such as hormones, enzymes, corticosteroids, neurotransmitters, genes or enzymes to target cells is desired. These ates may be ed by attaching the agent to an AB that is not capable of activating complement via a linker that is mildly susceptible to cleavage by serum ses. When this conjugate is administered to an individual, antigenantibody complexes will form y whereas cleavage of the agent will occur slowly, thus resulting in release of the compound at the target site.
Biochemical Cross Linkers: In other embodiments, the activatable antibody may be ated to one or more therapeutic agents using certain biochemical inkers.
Cross-linking reagents form molecular bridges that tie together functional groups of two different molecules. To link two different proteins in a step-wise manner, heterobifunctional cross-linkers can be used that eliminate unwanted homopolymer formation.
Peptidyl s cleavable by lysosomal proteases are also useful, for example, Val-Cit, Val-Ala or other dipeptides. In on, acid-labile linkers cleavable in the low—pH envirenment ol‘the lysesome may be used, for example: bis~siaiyi ether.

Upon diagnosis, a multispecitic antibody and/or multispecilic activatahle antibody is administered to mitigate or reverse the effects of the clinical tion. {$630357} Multispeciiie antibodies and/or multispecific aetivatahle antibodies are also useful in the ion of one or more targets in t samples and ingly are useful as diagnostics. l:or example, the multispecilic antibodies and/or rnultispecitic actiyatable antibodies of the disclosure are used in in vitro assays, rag, ElJlSA, to detect one or more tar et levels in a patient sainple. {999358} in one embodiment, a multispecific antibody and/or multispecific activatahle antibody is immobilized on a solid support (eg, the welds) of a microtiter plate). The immobilized antibody and/or activatable antibody serves as a capture antibody for any target(s) that may be present in a test sample. Prior to ting the immobilized multispecilic antibody and/or immobilized m'ultispecilic activatable antibody with a patient sample, the solid support is rinsed and treated with a blocking agent such as milk protein or albumin to prevent nonspecific adsorption of the analyte. {899359} Subsequently the wells are treated with a test sample suspected of containing the antigen, or with a solution containing a standard amount of the antigen. Such a sample is, eg, a serum sample from a subject suspected of having levels of circulating n considered to be diagnostic of a pathology. After rinsing away the test sample or standard, the solid support is treated with a second dy that is detectably labeled. The labeled second antibody serves as at detecting antibody. The level of detectable label is measured, and the concentration of target anti en(s) in the test sample is determi ed by comparison with a standard curve developed from the standard s. lfit’illl It will be appreciated that based on the results obtained using the inultispecitic antibody and/or specilic activatable antibody in an in vitro stic assay, it is possible to stage a disease in a subject based on expression levels of the target antigen(s). For a given e, samples of blood are taken from subjects diagnosed as being at s stages in the progression of the disease, and/or at various points in the therapeutic treatment of the disease. Using a population of samples that provides statistically significant results for each stage of ssion or therapy, a range of concentrations of the n that may be considered characteristic of each stage is designated. {dllllel} Multisiecific antibodies and/or multispecitic table antibodies can also be used in diagnostic and/or imaging methods. in some embodiments, such methods are in vitro methods, in some embodiments, such methods are in viva methods. ln some embodiments, such methods are in site methods. in some embodiments, such methods are ex vivo methods. for example, multispecitic antibodies and/or multispecific activatable antibodies having an enzymatically cleavable CM can be used to detect the presence or absence of an enzyme that is capable of cleaving the CM, Such multispecitic antibodies and/or specitic activatable antibodies can be used in diagnostics, which can include in viva detection tag, qualitative or quantitative) of enzyme activity (or, in some embodiments, an environment of increased ion potential such as that which can provide for reduction of a disullide bond) through measured accumulation of multispecitic activated antibodies (i.e., antibodies resulting from cleavage of a multispecific activatable antibody) in a given cell or tissue of a given host organism. Such accumulation of ted pecilic antibodies indicates not only that the tissue expresses enzymatic activity (or an increased reduction ial depending on the nature of the CM) but also that the tissue expresses at least one target to which the ted antibody binds. {(3993th For example, the CM can be selected to be a protease substrate for a protease found at the site of a tumor, at the site ol‘a viral or bacterial infection at a biologically confined site (egg, such as in an abscessfl in an organ, and the like), and the like, At least, one of the AB can be one that binds a target n. Using s familiar to one skilled in the art, a able label tag, a lhiorescent label or radioactive label or radiotracer) can be conjugated to an AB or other region of a multispecific antibody and/or multispecitic aetivatable antibody. Suitable detectable labels are discussed in the context of the above screening methods and additional specitic examples are provided below. Using at least one AB ic to a protein or peptide of the disease state, along with a protease whose activity is elevated in the disease tissue of interest, activatable antibodies will exhibit an increased rate ol‘binding to disease tissue relative to tissues where the CM specitic enzyme is not present at a detectable level or is t at a lower level than in disease tissue or is inactive (egi, in zymogen form or in complex with an inhibitor), Since small proteins and peptides are rapidly cleared from the blood by the renal filtration system, and because the enzyme specific for the CM is not present at a detectable level (or is present at lower levels in non— disease tissues or is present in inactive conformation), accumulation of activated niultispeeillc antibodies in the disease tissue is enhanced relative to non-disease tissues {@8363} in another example, activatable inultispecitic antibodies can be used to detect the presence or absence of a, ng agent in a sample. For example, where the tnultispecilic activatable antibodies n a CM tible to cleavage by an enzyme, the multi specific activatable antibodies can be used to detect (either qualitatively or quantitatively) the presence of an enzyme in the . in another example, where the niultispecilic table antibodies contain a CM susceptible to ge by reducing agent, the inultispecilic activatable antibodies can be used to detect (either qualitatively or quantitatively) the ce of ng conditions in a sample. To facilitate analysis in these methods, the multispecific activatable antibodies can be detectably labeled, and can be bound to a support (eg, a solid support, such as a slide or bead). The detectable label can be positioned on a portion of the activatable antibody that is not released ing cleavage, for example, the de ectable label can be a quenched fluorescent label or other label that is not detectable until cleavage has occurred. The assay can be conducted by, for example, contacting the immobilized, detectably labeled rnultispecil'ic activatable antibodies with a sample suspected of containing an enzyme and/or reducing agent for a time sufficient for cleavage to occur, then washing to remove excess sample and contaminants.

Except insofar as any conventional media or agent is incompatible with the active compound, use thereol’in the itions is contemplated. {$388378} 'l'he formulations to he used to ' in Viva administration must be sterile, This is y accomplished by filtration through sterile filtration membranes. {(399379} A pharmaceutical composition of the disclosure is formulated to be compatible with its intended route of administration. Examples of routes of administration include parenteral, cg, intravenous, errnal, subcutaneous, oral (cg, inhalation), transdermal (La, topical), transmucosal, and rectal administration. Solutions or suspensions used for parenteral, intradermal, or subcutaneous application can include the following components: a sterile diluent such as water for injection, saline solution, fixed oils, polyethylene glycols, ine, propylene glycol or other synthetic ts; antibacterial agents such as benzyl alcohol or methyl parabens; antioxidants such as ascorbic acid or sodium hisull‘ite; ing agents such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA); buffers such as acetates, citrates or ates, and agents for the adjustment of tonicity such as sodium chloride or dextrose. The pl-l can be adjusted with acids or bases, such as hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide. The parenteral preparation can be ed in ampoules, disposable syringes or multiple dose Vials made of glass or plastic. lllllllillllll Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for injectahle use include sterile aqueous solutions (where water soluble) or dispersions and sterile powders for the externporaneous ation of sterile inj e solutions or dispersion. For intravenous administration, suitable carriers include logical saline, bacteriostatic water, Cremophor ELTM (BASF, Parsippany, NJ.) or phosphate buffered saline (PBS). in all cases, the composition must be sterile and should be fluid to the extent that easy syringeability exists, it must be stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage and must be preserved against the contaminating action of microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi.
The carrier can be a t or dispersion medium containing, for e, water, l, polyol (for example, ol, propylene glycol, and liquid polyethylene glycol, and the like), and suitable mixtures thereof. The proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by the use of a coating such as lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of sion and by the use of surfactants. Prevention of the action of microorganisms can be achieved by various antibacterial and ngal agents, for example, parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, ascorbic acid, thimerosal, and the like. ln many cases, it will be suitable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars, polyalcohols such as manitol, l2',7 sorhitol, sodium chloride in the composition. Prolonged absorption of the injectahle compositions can he brought about by ing in the composition an agent, that delays absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate and gelatin. {899381} Sterile iniectable solutions can be prepared by incorporating the active compound in the required amount in an appropriate solvent with one or a combination of ingredients enumerated above, as required, followed by lilte ed sterilization. Ge erally, sions are prepared by incorporating the active compound into a sterile vehicle that ns a basic sion medium and the required other ingredients from those enumerated above. in the case of sterile powders for the preparation of sterile inj ectable solutions, methods of preparation are vacuum drying and freeze—drying that yields a powder of the active ient plus any additional desired ingredient from a previously sterile-- tiltered solution f. {999382} Oral itions generally include an inert diluent or an edible carrier.
They can be enclosed in gelatin capsules or compressed into tablets. for the purpose of oral therapeutic administration, the active nd can be incorporated with excipients and used in the form of tablets, troches, or capsules. Oral compositions can also be prepared using a fluid carrier for use as a mouthwash, wherein the cmnpound in the flui d carrier is applied orally and swislied and expectorated or swallowed. l’harmaceutically compatible binding agents, and/or adjuvant materials can be included as part of the composition. The tablets, pills, capsules, troches and the lilte can contain any of the following ingredients, or compounds of a similar nature: a binder such as microcrystalline cellulose, gum tragacantli or gelatin; an excipient such as starch or lactose, a disintegrating agent such as alginic acid, Prirnogel, or corn starch; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate or Sterotes; a glidant such as colloidal silicon dioxide; a sweetening agent such as sucrose or saccharin; or a ing agent such as peppermint, methyl salicylate, or orange ing, {llllllfiilill For administration by tion, the compounds are delivered in the form of an aerosol spray from red ner or dispenser that contains a suitable propellant, ag, a gas such as carbon dioxide, or a nebulizer. lllllllliéld} Systemic administration can also be by transmucosal or transderinal means.
For transmucosal or transderrnal administration, penetran ts riate to the barrier to he permeated are used in the ftn‘rnulation. Such penetrants are generally known in the art, and include, for example, for transmucosal administration, detergents, bile salts, and fusidic acid derivatives. Transmucosal administration can be accomplished through the use of nasal sprays or suppositories. l: or transdermal administration, the active compounds are t‘orn'rulated into ointments, salyes, gels, or creams as generally ltnotvn in the art. {$33385} The compounds can also be ed in the form of suppositories tag with conventional suppository bases such as cocoa butter and other glycerides) or retention eneinas for rectal delivery. {$90386} in one embodiment, the active compounds are prepared with carriers that will protect the nd t rapid elimination from the body, such as sustained/controlled release ations, including ts and microencapsulated delivery systems.

The amino acid sequences of these multispecific antibodies are provided herein, as are the amino acid sequences of the C225v5 and OKT3 antibodies. Also tested was an e control, namely human IgG1 e control, Enzo, Catalog ALX133-C100. 2020200981 9] To determine if the three multispecific antibody formats could bind to CD3- positive Jurkat T cells (also referred to herein as Jurkat cells and Jurkats), a flow cytometrybased binding assay was performed. Jurkat T cells (Clone E6-1, ATCC, TIB-152) were cultured in RPMI-1640 with GlutaMAX™ (Life Technologies, Catalog 72400-120), 10% Heat Inactivated-Fetal Bovine Serum (HI-FBS, Life logies, Catalog 10438-026), 100 U/ml penicillin, and 100 µg/ml streptomycin (Life Technologies, Catalog 15140-122) (also referred to herein as complete media) according to ATCC guidelines. Cells were harvested by centrifugation (200xg, 4°C, 5 min) and re-suspended in PBS with 2% HI-FBS (FACS Buffer). About 250,000 Jurkat cells per well were transferred to a 96-well U-bottom plate, harvested, and pended in 50 microliters (also referred to herein as µL or ul) of the antibodies being tested. The ng concentration of the antibodies was 100 nM for the multispecific antibodies and 166.7 nM for the isotype control, followed by 5-fold serial dilutions for a total of 8 concentrations for each antibody.
The cells and antibodies were ted at 4°C with shaking for about 1 hour, harvested, and washed 3 times with 200 µL FACS Buffer. The resultant Jurkat cells were resuspended in 50 µl of AlexaFluor® 647 conjugated anti-human IgG (H+L) (Jackson ImmunoResearch, Catalog 709149) and incubated at 4°C with shaking for about 30 min. The resultant Jurkat cells were harvested, washed 3 times with 200 µL FACS Buffer, and resuspended in a final volume of 150 µL of FACS Buffer with 2.5 µg/ml 7-AAD (BD Pharmingen, Catalog 559925). Samples were analyzed on a BD Accuri C6 flow cytometer (BD Biosciences), and the median fluorescence intensity (MFI) of viable cells was calculated using FlowJo V10 (Treestar). 7-AAD staining showed that a forward side scatter gate was sufficient to identify viable cells. EC50 values were calculated in GraphPad Prism 6 by curve fitting the data to log(agonist) vs. response (three ters).
Figure 16A demonstrates that all three multispecific antibody formats bound Jurkat T cells with EC50 values ranging from -digit nM to sub-nM.
