Definitions

  • This invention relates to antibodies specific for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) .
  • HIV is the proposed causative agent of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). (Popovic et al., 1984, Science 224:497). It is a pathogenic human retrovirus whose genome is capable of encoding at least six gene products.
  • the env gene encodes a 160 kDa glycosylated protein (gpl60) that is processed by proteolysis into a 120 kD external glycoprotein (gpl20) and a 41 kD transmembrane protein (gp41) .
  • gpl20 is anchored to the virion by noncovalent interactions with gp41.
  • gpl20 and gp41 are present on the surface of both virion particles and virus-infected cells.
  • Different strains of HIV vary in the amino acid sequences of proteins encoded by the viral genome, particularly in the amino acid sequence of the external envelope glycoprotein gpl20 (Starcich, 1986, Cell 45:637; Hahn et al., 1986, Science 232:1548). Over its entire length, the gpl20 polypeptide sequence varies from one HIV variant to the next by approximately 20-25%. The extent of variation is not constant over the whole envelope protein. There is a pattern of conserved and variable regions, which suggests that the protein is divided into regions responsible for distinct functions. A number of different regions have been identified; for example, the CD4 binding domain, the principal neutralizing determinant, and cytotoxic T-cell recognition determinants.
  • Pincus et al. J. Immunol. (1989) 142;3070
  • Till et al. Proc. Nat. Aca. Sci.. 1989, 86;1981 disclose anti- gp41-toxin conjugates.
  • the invention features an antibody capable of recognizing a non-immunodominant epitope of the envelope protein of HIV, wherein the binding of the antibody to the envelope protein is not blocked by serum from an HIV- infected patient.
  • antibody refers to a whole antibody molecule, or to a fragment or to a modification of an antibody, e.g. a fragment of an antibody bay be the Fab 2 fragment of the molecule, the Fab 1 fragment , or the heavy or light chain alone; and a modification, for example, may be a linear polypeptide molecule which includes both the heavy and light chains, as described in Huston et al.
  • non-immunodominant epitope means an amino acid sequence within the natural conformation of a protein that is not significantly immunogenic; i.e., does not elicit an antibody response in at least 75% of human patients.
  • An antibody directed toward a non-immunodominant region of the HIV envelope protein can, according to the invention, bind that region due to the absence or low level of potentially competitive circulating antibodies.
  • an antibody directed towards an immunodominant region of the envelope protein will be partially or completely blocked from binding the targeted envelope protein region due to the presence of antibodies in the patient due to the patient's natural immune response to HIV infection.
  • the non-immunodominant envelope region may be within the
  • Non- immunodominance can be measured in vitro by binding the antibody to a target antigen in the presence of HIV- positive human serum; an antibody specific for a non- immunodominant epitope of the target antigen will demonstrate a comparable binding efficiency to the target antigen in the presence or absence of HIV positive serum.
  • the binding efficiency of the antibody to the target antigen in the presence of HIV-positive serum is at least 80% of its binding efficiency in the absence of HIV- positive serum.
  • the non-immunodominant epitope recognized by the antibody is group common.
  • group common determinant means an antigenic portion of a protein encoded by an HIV strain that is not specific for that strain only, but is present on at least one other HIV strain.
  • the antibody is capable of binding to the surface of HIV envelope glycoprotein expressing cells; is capable of recognizing the region of the envelope protein between amino acid residues 473 and 759, inclusive, according to the numbering convention of Ratner et al., 1985, Nature 313:277; and is capable of recognizing that portion of gpl20 contained within the 473 through 759 amino acid region; one example of such an antibody is that produced by cell line A.T.C.C. No. HB 10321.
  • the antibody is covalently linked to a toxin to form a conjugate, and the conjugate is capable of killing HIV-infected cells in the presence of human HIV+ serum; killing may occur via internalization of the antibody-toxin conjugate by HIV- infected cells.
  • the conjugate may be made at the protein level by chemically linking the antibody and the toxin molecule or at the DNA level, by cloning the DNA sequence
  • toxin is used to include the commonly designated toxins such as poisonous lectins, ricin, abrin, modeccin, diphtheria toxin, pseudomonas exotoxin or preferably the toxic A chain portions thereof, as well as other toxic agents such as radioisotopes, cytotoxic and carcinostatic drugs.
  • toxins such as poisonous lectins, ricin, abrin, modeccin, diphtheria toxin, pseudomonas exotoxin or preferably the toxic A chain portions thereof, as well as other toxic agents such as radioisotopes, cytotoxic and carcinostatic drugs.
  • Toxin may also refer to combinations of the various toxins, which can be coupled to one antibody molecule thereby accommodating variable cytotoxicity.
  • the HIV-specifi ⁇ antibody is linked to a second antibody that is specific for an effector cell to form an antibody heteroconjugate (also known in the art as heteroaggregates or heteroantibodies) .
  • the anti-HIV antibody of the heteroconjugate binds to an HIV-infected cell, i.e., the target cell to be killed, while the anti- effector antibody of the heteroconjugate binds to an effector cell such as those found within the peripheral blood lymphocyte (PBL) population, e.g., cytotoxic T lymphocytes (also known as T cells) , monocytes (in particular, acrophages) , granulocytes, or large granular lymphocytes which include cells with natural killer activity or antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxic activity, with the result that the antibody components of the heteroconjugate bridge the effector and target cells and thus promote killing of the target cell by the cytotoxic effector cell.
  • PBL peripheral blood lymphocyte
  • HIV-infected patients can be treated by administering an amount of the antibody-toxin conjugate or an antibody heteroconjugate of the invention sufficient to kill HIV-infected cells.
  • the viral envelope protein is expressed on the surface of infected cells.
  • SUBSTITUTESHEET selectively killing the.cells in which the virus is replicating using an antibody conjugate that reacts with virus-specific cell-surface antigens, the infectious cycle of the virus may be interrupted.
  • One advantage of an antibody or antibody-toxin conjugate or an antibody heteroconjugate of the invention is the non-immunodominance of the HIV envelope glycoprotein epitope that the antibody is specific for.
  • Another advantage of certain antibodies, antibody- toxin conjugates, and antibody heteroconjugates of the invention are their ability to recognize a group common determinant of the HIV envelope glycoprotein.
  • Group common determinants are portions of the envelope polypeptide that are essentially invariant among different HIV strains. Therefore, an antibody capable of recognizing a group common determinant can recognize gpl ⁇ o from any strain of HIV.
  • Treatment of an HIV- infected patient according to the invention will thus not be limited to any one strain of HIV, but will include all strains to which the target determinant is common.

  • a therapeutically useful exogenous antibody specific for the HIV envelope protein must be able to bind HIV, or HIV-infected cells expressing the envelope protein, in the presence of competing circulating antibodies.
  • the 1C1 antibody was tested for its ability to bind to target antigen in the presence of serum from an HIV-infected patient, and compared with a control antibody known to bind to an immunodominant region of gp41.

After 2 hrs., the wells were washed and secondary antibody (sheep anti-mouse-HRP) which did not cross-react with human Ig was added. After 1 hr. , the secondary antibody was removed, the wells were washed, ABTS was added, and the OD 410 was measured after 30 min.
  • the 1C1 antibody was assayed for binding to the capture antigen, pENV9.
  • the results demonstrate that 1C1 bound with almost equal efficiency to pENV9 in the presence of either HIV-positive serum or HIV-negative serum (Fig. 3a) .
  • the 1C1 antibody bound with the highest efficiency to pENV9 in the presence of HIV negative serum at antibody concentrations above 0.01 ⁇ g/ml
  • the binding of this antibody to pENV9 in the presence of HIV positive serum was about 88% as efficient as binding to pENV9 in the presence of HIV negative serum at an antibody concentration of l ⁇ g/ml, and over 95% as efficient at 10 ⁇ g/ml.
  • Similar results were obtained when 1C1 binding was tested in the presence of HIV positive sera from four other patients.
  • SUBSTITUTESHEET results demonstrate that, if there are pENV9-specific antibodies present in HIV positive serum, they are present in low enough titers or have a weak binding affinity or react with different pENV9 epitope so that they do not significantly interfere with the binding of the ICl antibody to pENV9. Thus, ICl is potentially useful as a therapeutic agent.
  • Fig. 3(b) the ability of the ICl antibody to bind the pl21 protein was tested.
  • the ICl antibody did not bind pl21 at all. (The minimal reactivity observed with pl21 at ICl concentrations above O.l ⁇ /ml in 0.5% BSA was probably due to nonspecific binding.)
  • ICl monoclonal antibody binds to the surface of cells expressing the HIV envelope glycoprotein was determined by indirect immunofluorescence and analysis by FACs (Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorter, Methods in Enzymology, 1984, Parks et al., 108:197), as follows.
  • the ICl antibody was bound to either CVl cells (A.T.C.C. No. CCL70) infected with a Vaccinia Virus recombinant containing the HIV env gene, which express both gpl20 and gp41 on their surface (CVl-Env) , or CVl
  • Fig. 4(a) the ICl antibody was bound to CVl- Env cells. If Fig. 4(a) is superimposed on Fig. 4(b), which shows a FACS profile for CVl-Lac cells incubated with the ICl antibody, there is a rightward shift (i.e., an increase) in fluorescence intensity in the CVl-Env cells compared to the CVl-lac cells, indicating that the ICl antibody binds HIV envelope glycoprotein expressing cells significantly better than the cells not expressing the envelope protein.
  • ICl binds to the target antigen in its native state, and suggests that cells expressing HIV envelope glycoprotein may be specific targets for an immunotoxin conjugate composed of ICl linked to a toxin.
  • Figs. 4(c) and 4(d) are controls in which the ICl antibody was bound to uninfected CVl cells and in which buffer alone was bound to CVl-Env Cells, respectively. (The background fluorescence that is apparent in the FACS analyses of CVl-Env and CVl-Lac cells is probably due to alterations in the cell membrane resulting from expression of foreign viral proteins.) Preparation of Antibody Conjugates of Heteroconiugates
  • the antibodies may be conjugated to cytotoxic agents and used as immunotoxins (as described in, e.g., Vitetta et al., 1987, Science 238: 1098), or incorporated onto the surface of liposomes containing anti-HIV drugs or toxins to specifically target such drugs or toxins to HIV-infected cells.
  • immunotoxin refers to a conjugate of an antibody with one or more toxins.
  • SUBSTITUTE SHEET various toxins are coupled to one antibody molecule, coupling may occur by different chemical mechanisms; for example, covalent binding, affinity binding, intercalation, coordinate binding and complexation.
  • the preferred coupling of the antibody to the toxin is, however, covalent binding either by chemical or genetic fusions.
  • the immunotoxin comprises an antibody reactive with a non-immunodominant, group common epitope of the HIV envelope protein linked to the exotoxin form Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
  • Pseudomonas exotoxin PE is particularly preferably to other toxins because large amounts are easily prepared, because humans do not usually have neutralizing antibodies against it, and because it does not need to be separated into subunits before being conjugated.

  • An antibody-toxin conjugate or heteroconjugate of the invention can be tested for target specificity and efficiency by killing by incubating the conjugate with HIV chronically-infected cells that express HIV envelope glycoprotein or with uninfected cells, and pulsing the cells with 3 H-Thymidine of 1 C-Leucine. Toxicity can be measured by a decrease in cell division or protein synthesis in the infected cells relative to the uninfected control cells. The efficiency of cell killing can be calculated using a clonogenic assay, in which infected cells are incubated with a conjugate of the invention, plated by limiting dilution (Tarwell, 1981, J.
