Abstract
Description
本發明涉及免疫細胞治療領域,更具體地涉及共表現介白素-15突變體和IL-15Rα融合蛋白且標靶固態腫瘤和血液瘤的基因工程化免疫細胞及其應用。The present invention relates to the field of immune cell therapy, and more particularly to genetically engineered immune cells that co-express interleukin-15 mutants and IL-15Rα fusion proteins and target solid tumors and hematological tumors, and applications thereof.
免疫細胞療法是一種全新的藥物開發模式。利用基因工程化改造人類免疫細胞使其成為活性藥物,在治療B細胞惡性腫瘤方面已經取得了顯著的進展。Immune cell therapy is a new mode of drug development. Significant progress has been made in the treatment of B-cell malignancies by genetically engineering human immune cells into active drugs.
目前已開發了多種免疫療法,包括LAK、DC、CIK、DC-CIK、TCR-T、CAR-T、NK、CAR-NK等等。常用的CAR-T細胞免疫療法包括自體和通用型CAR-T療法,其中自體CAR-T療法採用病人的免疫細胞,而異體免疫療法採用同種異體對象的CAR-T細胞,將所需的免疫細胞進行體外培養、基因編輯和擴增後回輸病人體內,這些細胞以非MHC限制方式辨識腫瘤細胞,不需要抗原呈現的機制辨識腫瘤抗原,減少腫瘤細胞透過向下調控MHC以及抗原呈現介導的免疫逃逸。針對腫瘤相關抗原標的(TAA),設計細胞表面嵌合抗原受體(CAR)分子特異辨識腫瘤細胞表現的抗原標的,透過分泌干擾素、穿孔素等細胞因子直接攻擊並毒殺腫瘤細胞,從而達到治療或緩解疾病的目的。A variety of immunotherapies have been developed, including LAK, DC, CIK, DC-CIK, TCR-T, CAR-T, NK, CAR-NK, and more. Commonly used CAR-T cell immunotherapy includes autologous and universal CAR-T therapy, in which autologous CAR-T therapy uses the patient's immune cells, while allogeneic immunotherapy uses CAR-T cells from allogeneic subjects, and the required Immune cells are cultured in vitro, gene-edited and expanded and then infused back into the patient. These cells recognize tumor cells in a non-MHC-restricted manner, and do not require an antigen-presenting mechanism to recognize tumor antigens. induced immune escape. For tumor-associated antigen targets (TAA), the chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) molecules on the cell surface are designed to specifically recognize the antigen targets expressed by tumor cells, and directly attack and kill tumor cells by secreting cytokines such as interferon and perforin, so as to achieve treatment. or the purpose of alleviating the disease.
目前,免疫治療血液瘤已有突出的療效,而在固態腫瘤中療效並不理想。主要原因包括三方面,一是安全的腫瘤特異性抗原標的,二是實體腫瘤的異質性,三是存在複雜的腫瘤細胞微環境等因素,包括免疫抑制細胞Tregs和MDSCs等以及免疫抑制因子的存在,不利於免疫細胞存活,從而抑制免疫治療效果。間皮素是一種存在於正常間皮細胞上的分化抗原,在間皮瘤、肺癌、胰腺癌、乳腺癌、卵巢癌等腫瘤中均有高度表現,正常組織如正常胸膜、心包和腹膜的間皮細胞中有限表現,在氣管,卵巢,睾丸,扁桃腺和輸卵管的上皮細胞表面上表現最低。因此間皮素可作為有效的免疫治療標的,目前針對MSLN設計免疫治療策略,主要包括抗體療法、免疫毒素和嵌合抗原受體T細胞療法。抗體類藥物包括Amatuximab(MORAb-009),Anetumab Ravtansine (BAY94-9343),DMOT4039A,MDX-1204等,但其治療固態腫瘤療效並不理想,尚需完善現有的治療技術,增強療效,降低治療過程中的風險。At present, immunotherapy for hematological tumors has outstanding curative effect, but the curative effect in solid tumors is not ideal. The main reasons include three aspects, one is safe tumor-specific antigen targets, the other is the heterogeneity of solid tumors, and the third is the existence of complex tumor cell microenvironment and other factors, including immunosuppressive cells Tregs and MDSCs, and the existence of immunosuppressive factors. , is not conducive to the survival of immune cells, thereby inhibiting the effect of immunotherapy. Mesothelin is a differentiation antigen that exists on normal mesothelial cells. It is highly expressed in mesothelioma, lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer and other tumors, and normal tissues such as normal pleura, pericardium and peritoneum. Limited expression in the epithelium, with minimal expression on the epithelial surface of the trachea, ovary, testis, tonsils, and fallopian tubes. Therefore, mesothelin can be used as an effective immunotherapy target. Currently, immunotherapy strategies are designed for MSLN, mainly including antibody therapy, immunotoxin and chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy. Antibody drugs include Amatuximab (MORAb-009), Anetumab Ravtansine (BAY94-9343), DMOT4039A, MDX-1204, etc., but their efficacy in the treatment of solid tumors is not satisfactory, and it is necessary to improve the existing treatment technology to enhance the efficacy and reduce the treatment process risk in.
綜上所述,本領域尚需進一步開發更有效、持久、安全標靶固態腫瘤的免疫療法。In conclusion, there is still a need for further development of more effective, durable and safe immunotherapy targeting solid tumors in the art.

IL-15
IL-15是一種可以刺激免疫細胞生長的細胞因子。基於IL-15的藥物開發長期以來集中在可溶型的IL-15改造上。已有文獻和專利報導,集中在開發可溶型IL-15藥物,主要有RL1,ALT803,HRP008,P22339四種結構。IL-15 is a cytokine that can stimulate the growth of immune cells. IL-15-based drug development has long focused on soluble IL-15 engineering. There have been literature and patent reports, focusing on the development of soluble IL-15 drugs, mainly including RL1, ALT803, HRP008, and P22339 four structures.

綜上所述的四種結構,克服了重組的IL-15半衰期短的缺點,都明顯延長體內的半衰期,並提高其生物學活性,如促進了CD8+記憶 T細胞、NKT和NK細胞增殖。但其仍舊存在毒副作用和半衰期短的問題,在臨床使用中需多次給藥,限制其臨床實用性。 IL-15/IL-15Rα 複合體 In summary, the four structures above overcome the short half-life of recombinant IL-15, significantly prolong the half-life in vivo, and improve its biological activity, such as promoting the proliferation of CD8+ memory T cells, NKT and NK cells. However, it still has the problems of toxic side effects and short half-life, and needs to be administered multiple times in clinical use, which limits its clinical practicability.

IL-15 and IL-15Rα are connected through linker, and the structure of IL-15Rα refers to the complete IL-15Rα molecule including extracellular domain (including sushi domain), transmembrane domain and intracellular domain. IL-15Rα can promote the proliferation of immunotherapy cells and inhibit the apoptosis of immunotherapy cells by recruiting the self-expressed IL-2Rβ and IL-2Rγc chains on the surface of immunotherapy cells and activating downstream signaling signals such as JAK1/JAK3, Stat3/Stat5 , so as to obtain a better therapeutic effect. At the same time, the complex is restricted to the surface of immunotherapy cells to avoid the possible immunosuppressive effects caused by the proliferation of activated immunosuppressive T cells, NK and NKT cells (such as Treg), and to avoid excessive activation of T cells, NK and NKT cells. systemic or systemic side effects.

具體地,本發明的嵌合抗原受體(CAR)包括細胞外結構域、跨膜結構域、和細胞內結構域。胞外結構域包括標的-特異性結合元件(也稱為抗原結合結構域)。細胞內結構域包括共刺激信號傳導區和ζ鏈部分。共刺激信號傳導區指包括共刺激分子的細胞內結構域的一部分。共刺激分子為淋巴細胞對抗原的有效反應所需要的細胞表面分子,而不是抗原受體或它們的配體。在優選的實施方式中,本發明的CAR包含來源CD28的共刺激信號分子。Specifically, the chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) of the present invention includes an extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular domain. The extracellular domain includes a target-specific binding element (also referred to as an antigen binding domain). The intracellular domain includes the costimulatory signaling region and the zeta chain portion. A costimulatory signaling region refers to a portion of an intracellular domain that includes a costimulatory molecule. Costimulatory molecules are cell surface molecules, other than antigen receptors or their ligands, that are required for effective lymphocyte responses to antigens. In a preferred embodiment, the CAR of the present invention comprises a costimulatory signaling molecule derived from CD28.
在CAR的胞外結構域和跨膜結構域之間,或在CAR的細胞質液結構域和跨膜結構域之間,可併入連接子。如本文所用的,術語“連接子”通常指起到將跨膜結構域連接至多肽鏈的胞外結構域或細胞質液結構域作用的任何寡肽或多肽。連接子可包括0-300個胺基酸,優選地2至100個胺基酸和最優選地3至50個胺基酸。A linker can be incorporated between the extracellular domain and the transmembrane domain of the CAR, or between the cytoplasmic domain and the transmembrane domain of the CAR. As used herein, the term "linker" generally refers to any oligopeptide or polypeptide that functions to link the transmembrane domain to the extracellular or cytoplasmic domain of a polypeptide chain. The linker may comprise 0-300 amino acids, preferably 2 to 100 amino acids and most preferably 3 to 50 amino acids.
在本發明的一個較佳的實施方式中,本發明提供的CAR的胞外結構域包括標靶Meso的抗原結合結構域。本發明的CAR當在T細胞中表現時,能夠基於抗原結合特異性進行抗原辨識。當其結合其關聯抗原時,影響腫瘤細胞,導致腫瘤細胞不生長、被促使死亡或以其他方式被影響,並導致患者的腫瘤負荷縮小或消除。抗原結合結構域優選與來自共刺激分子和ζ鏈中的一個或多個的細胞內結構域融合。In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the extracellular domain of the CAR provided by the present invention includes the antigen-binding domain of the target Meso. The CAR of the present invention is capable of antigen recognition based on antigen binding specificity when expressed in T cells. When it binds to its cognate antigen, it affects tumor cells, causing the tumor cells to not grow, being driven to die, or otherwise being affected, and resulting in a reduction or elimination of the patient's tumor burden.

Fv antibodies contain antibody heavy chain variable regions, light chain variable regions, but no constant regions, and are the smallest antibody fragment with all antigen-binding sites. Typically, Fv antibodies also contain a polypeptide linker between the VH and VL domains and are capable of forming the structure required for antigen binding. The antigen binding domain is usually a scFv (single-chain variable fragment). The size of scFv is generally 1/6 of that of a complete antibody. A single chain antibody is preferably a sequence of one amino acid chain encoded by one nucleotide chain. As a preferred mode of the present invention, the scFv comprises an antibody that specifically recognizes Meso, preferably a humanized single-chain antibody.
對於絞鏈區和跨膜區(跨膜結構域),CAR可被設計以包括融合至CAR的胞外結構域的跨膜結構域。在一個實施方式中,使用天然與CAR中的結構域之一相關聯的跨膜結構域。在一些例子中,可選擇跨膜結構域,或透過胺基酸置換進行修飾,以避免將這樣的結構域結合至相同或不同的表面膜蛋白的跨膜結構域,從而最小化與受體複合物的其他成員的相互作用。 序列 For the hinge region and the transmembrane region (transmembrane domain), the CAR can be designed to include a transmembrane domain fused to the extracellular domain of the CAR. In one embodiment, the transmembrane domain naturally associated with one of the domains in the CAR is used. In some instances, transmembrane domains may be selected, or modified by amino acid replacement, to avoid binding such domains to the transmembrane domains of the same or different surface membrane proteins, thereby minimizing complexation with receptors interactions with other members of the species. sequence
本申請序列表中涉及的各序列如下:
編碼期望分子的核酸序列可利用在本領域中已知的重組方法獲得,諸如例如透過從表現基因的細胞中篩選文庫,透過從已知包括該基因的載體中得到該基因,或透過利用標準的技術,從包含該基因的細胞和組織中直接分離。可選地,感興趣的基因可被合成生產。Nucleic acid sequences encoding the desired molecules can be obtained using recombinant methods known in the art, such as, for example, by screening libraries from cells expressing the gene, by obtaining the gene from a vector known to include the gene, or by using standard technology to isolate directly from cells and tissues that contain the gene. Alternatively, the gene of interest can be produced synthetically.
本發明也提供了其中插入本發明的表現匣的載體。源於反轉錄病毒諸如慢病毒的載體是實現長期基因轉移的合適工具,因為它們允許轉基因長期、穩定的整合並且其在子細胞中增殖。慢病毒載體具有超過源自致癌反轉錄病毒諸如鼠科白血病病毒的載體的優點,因為它們可轉導非增殖的細胞,諸如肝細胞。它們也具有低免疫原性的優點。The present invention also provides vectors into which the expression cassettes of the present invention are inserted. Vectors derived from retroviruses such as lentiviruses are suitable tools to achieve long-term gene transfer because they allow long-term, stable integration of the transgene and its proliferation in daughter cells. Lentiviral vectors have advantages over vectors derived from oncogenic retroviruses such as murine leukemia virus because they can transduce non-proliferating cells such as hepatocytes. They also have the advantage of low immunogenicity.

Methods of gene delivery are known in the art. See, eg, US Patent Nos. 5,399,346, 5,580,859, 5,589,466, which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. In another embodiment, the present invention provides gene therapy vectors.
該核酸可被選殖入許多類型的載體。例如,該核酸可被選殖入如此載體,其包括但不限於質體、噬質體、噬菌體衍生物、動物病毒和黏接質體。特定的感興趣載體包括表現載體、複製載體、探針產生載體和定序載體。The nucleic acid can be cloned into many types of vectors. For example, the nucleic acid can be cloned into vectors including, but not limited to, plastids, phages, phage derivatives, animal viruses, and cohesoplasts. Particular vectors of interest include expression vectors, replication vectors, probe generation vectors, and sequencing vectors.
進一步地,表現載體可以以病毒載體形式提供給細胞。病毒載體技術在本領域中是公知的並在例如Sambrook等(2001,Molecular Cloning:A Laboratory Manual,Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory,New York)和其他病毒學和分子生物學手冊中進行了描述。可用作載體的病毒包括但不限於反轉錄病毒、腺病毒、腺相關病毒、皰疹病毒和慢病毒。通常,合適的載體包含在至少一種有機體中起作用的複製起點、啟動子序列、方便的限制酶位點和一個或多個可選擇的標記(例如,WO01/96584;WO01/29058;和美國專利號6,326,193)。Further, the expression vector can be provided to the cell in the form of a viral vector. Viral vector techniques are well known in the art and are described, for example, in Sambrook et al. (2001, Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, New York) and other virology and molecular biology manuals. Viruses that can be used as vectors include, but are not limited to, retroviruses, adenoviruses, adeno-associated viruses, herpesviruses, and lentiviruses. In general, suitable vectors contain an origin of replication functional in at least one organism, a promoter sequence, convenient restriction enzyme sites, and one or more selectable markers (eg, WO01/96584; WO01/29058; and US Pat. No. 6,326,193).
已經開發許多基於病毒的系統,用於將基因轉移入哺乳動物細胞。例如,反轉錄病毒提供了用於基因傳遞系統的方便的平台。可利用在本領域中已知的技術將選擇的基因插入載體並包封入反轉錄病毒顆粒。該重組病毒可隨後被分離和傳遞至體內或離體的對象細胞。許多反轉錄病毒系統在本領域中是已知的。在一些實施方式中,使用腺病毒載體。許多腺病毒載體在本領域中是已知的。在一個實施方式中,使用慢病毒載體。A number of virus-based systems have been developed for gene transfer into mammalian cells. For example, retroviruses provide a convenient platform for gene delivery systems. The selected gene can be inserted into a vector and encapsulated into retroviral particles using techniques known in the art. The recombinant virus can then be isolated and delivered to subject cells in vivo or ex vivo. Many retroviral systems are known in the art. In some embodiments, adenoviral vectors are used. Many adenoviral vectors are known in the art. In one embodiment, lentiviral vectors are used.
額外的啟動子元件,例如增強子,可以調節轉錄開始的頻率。通常地,這些位於起始位點上游的30-110bp區域中,儘管最近已經顯示許多啟動子也包含起始位點下游的功能元件。啟動子元件之間的間隔經常是柔性的,以便當元件相對於另一個被倒置或移動時,保持啟動子功能。在胸苷激酶(tk)啟動子中,啟動子元件之間的間隔可被增加隔開50bp,活性才開始下降。取決於啟動子,表現出單個元件可合作或獨立地起作用,以起動轉錄。Additional promoter elements, such as enhancers, can regulate the frequency of transcription initiation. Typically, these are located in a region of 30-110 bp upstream of the initiation site, although it has recently been shown that many promoters also contain functional elements downstream of the initiation site. The spacing between promoter elements is often flexible so that promoter function is maintained when elements are inverted or moved relative to one another. In the thymidine kinase (tk) promoter, the spacing between promoter elements can be increased by 50 bp before activity begins to decline. Depending on the promoter, individual elements appear to act cooperatively or independently to initiate transcription.
合適的啟動子的一個例子為即時早期巨細胞病毒(CMV)啟動子序列。該啟動子序列為能夠驅動可操作地連接至其上的任何多核苷酸序列高位準表現的強組成型啟動子序列。合適的啟動子的另一個例子為延伸生長因子-1α(EF-1α)。然而,也可使用其他組成型啟動子序列,包括但不限於類人猿病毒40(SV40)早期啟動子、小鼠乳癌病毒(MMTV)、人免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)長末端重複(LTR)啟動子、MoMuLV啟動子、鳥類白血病病毒啟動子、艾伯斯坦-巴爾(Epstein-Barr)病毒即時早期啟動子、魯斯氏肉瘤病毒啟動子、以及人基因啟動子,諸如但不限於肌動蛋白啟動子、肌球蛋白啟動子、血紅素啟動子和肌酸激酶啟動子。進一步地,本發明不應被限於組成型啟動子的應用。誘導型啟動子也被考慮為本發明的一部分。誘導型啟動子的使用提供了分子開關,其能夠當這樣的表現是期望的時,打開可操作地連接誘導型啟動子的多核苷酸序列的表現,或當表現是不期望的時關閉表現。誘導型啟動子的例子包括但不限於金屬硫蛋白啟動子、糖皮質激素啟動子、孕酮啟動子和四環素啟動子。An example of a suitable promoter is the immediate early cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter sequence. The promoter sequence is a strong constitutive promoter sequence capable of driving high-level expression of any polynucleotide sequence to which it is operably linked. Another example of a suitable promoter is elongation growth factor-1α (EF-1α). However, other constitutive promoter sequences can also be used, including but not limited to the simian virus 40 (SV40) early promoter, the mouse breast cancer virus (MMTV), the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) long terminal repeat (LTR) promoter, MoMuLV promoter, avian leukemia virus promoter, Epstein-Barr virus immediate early promoter, Russell sarcoma virus promoter, and human gene promoters such as but not limited to the actin promoter, Myosin promoter, heme promoter and creatine kinase promoter. Further, the present invention should not be limited to the use of constitutive promoters. Inducible promoters are also contemplated as part of the present invention. The use of an inducible promoter provides a molecular switch that can turn on expression of a polynucleotide sequence operably linked to an inducible promoter when such expression is desired, or turn off expression when such expression is not desired. Examples of inducible promoters include, but are not limited to, metallothionein promoters, glucocorticoid promoters, progesterone promoters, and tetracycline promoters.
為了評估CAR多肽或其部分的表現,被引入細胞的表現載體也可包含可選擇的標記基因或報導基因中的任一個或兩者,以便於從透過病毒載體尋求被轉染或感染的細胞群中鑑定和選擇表現細胞。在其他方面,可選擇的標記可被攜帶在單獨一段DNA上並用於共轉染程序。可選擇的標記和報導基因兩者的側翼都可具有適當的調節序列,以便能夠在宿主細胞中表現。有用的可選擇標記包括例如抗生素抗性基因,諸如neo等等。To assess the performance of a CAR polypeptide or portion thereof, the expression vector introduced into a cell may also contain either or both a selectable marker gene or a reporter gene to facilitate the search for transfected or infected cell populations through the viral vector Identify and select expressing cells. In other aspects, the selectable marker can be carried on a single piece of DNA and used in co-transfection procedures. Both the selectable marker and the reporter gene can be flanked by appropriate regulatory sequences to enable expression in the host cell. Useful selectable markers include, for example, antibiotic resistance genes such as neo and the like.
報導基因用於鑑定潛在轉染的細胞並用於評價調節序列的功能性。通常地,報導基因為以下基因:其不存在於受體有機體或組織或由受體有機體或組織進行表現,並且其編碼多肽,該多肽的表現由一些可容易檢測的性質例如酶活性清楚表示。在DNA已經被引入受體細胞後,報導基因的表現在合適的時間下進行測定。合適的報導基因可包括編碼螢光素酶、β-半乳糖苷酶、氯黴素乙醯轉移酶、分泌型鹼性磷酸酶或綠色螢光蛋白的基因(例如,Ui-Tei等,2000FEBS Letters479:79-82)。合適的表現系統是公知的並可利用已知技術製備或從商業上獲得。通常,顯示最高位準的報導基因表現的具有最少5個側翼區的建構體被鑑定為啟動子。這樣的啟動子區可被連接至報導基因並用於評價試劑調節啟動子-驅動轉錄的能力。Reporter genes are used to identify potentially transfected cells and to evaluate the functionality of regulatory sequences. Typically, a reporter gene is a gene that is not present in or expressed by the recipient organism or tissue and which encodes a polypeptide whose expression is clearly indicated by some readily detectable property such as enzymatic activity. After the DNA has been introduced into the recipient cells, the expression of the reporter gene is determined at an appropriate time. Suitable reporter genes may include genes encoding luciferase, beta-galactosidase, chloramphenicol acetyltransferase, secreted alkaline phosphatase, or green fluorescent protein (eg, Ui-Tei et al., 2000 FEBS Letters 479 :79-82). Suitable expression systems are well known and can be prepared using known techniques or obtained commercially. Typically, constructs with a minimum of 5 flanking regions showing the highest level of reporter gene expression are identified as promoters. Such promoter regions can be linked to reporter genes and used to evaluate the ability of an agent to modulate promoter-driven transcription.
