Definitions
- the invention is related to monoclonal antibodies which interact with platelet cells to inhibit various functions associated with platelet activation.
- the principal activity demonstrated by the monoclonal antibodies of the present invention is inhibition of the binding of thrombin to the glycoprotein lb on the surface of the platelet cells.
- thrombin a coagulation serene protease, derived from prothrombin by cleavage by coagulation factor Xa.
- Thrombin plays a key role in blood coagulation and thrombosis (pathological coagulation) .
- Thrombin is a central bioregulatory enzyme in hemostasis. It catalyzes the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin and is responsible for the activation of coagulation factors V, VIII and XIII. Thrombin may also interact with blood vessel walls causing vasoconstriction and may even mediate leukocyte adherence.
- Thrombin is the most potent physiologic stimulus which induces platelet activation.
- the reaction of thrombin with platelets represents an unusual agonist- receptor interaction.
- stimulation of platelets requires the catalytic activity of thrombin, a major protein, the glycoprotein lb (GPIb) , has been isolated on the platelet surface to which thrombin binds.
- GPIb glycoprotein lb
- High affinity thrombin binding to GPIb induces platelet activation; this includes platelet shape change, ADP and serotonin secretion, alpha granule release, lysosomal release, the conversion of arachidonic acid to thromboxane A2 and irreversible platelet aggregation.
- Thromboxane A2 acts as a potent vasoconstrictor and causes aggregation of platelets.
- thrombin causes platelet activation and aggregation which is resistant to conventional thrombolytic therapy.
- any agent which could interfere with high affinity thrombin binding to the GPIb on the platelet would be an important tool in treating patients with acute arterial thrombosis and could be efficacious in ameliorating the effects of thrombin in arterial thrombus formation and the resultant resistance of arterial thrombi to thrombolytic therapy.
- Monoclonal antibodies have been identified which inhibit platelet functions induced by ristocetin or thrombin.
- TM-60 inhibits binding of von Willebrand factor to platelets in the presence of ristocetin and inhibited the release of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) by thrombin.
- ADP adenosine diphosphate
- TM-60 inhibits binding of von Willebrand factor to platelets in the presence of ristocetin and inhibited the release of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) by thrombin.
- ADP adenosine diphosphate
- Another monoclonal antibody to human platelet GPIb designated antibody SZ-2, inhibited both ristocetin- and collagen- induced aggregation of platelets (C. Ruan et al., in Monoclonal Antibodies and Blood Platelets. INSERM Symposium No. 27, pp. 59-68, ed. J.L. McGregor, c. 1986 by Elsiver Science Publishers BV.).
- a third antibody to GPIb is designated VM 16d and blocks thrombin-induced platelet-aggregation at low doses of thrombin, 0.05 u/ml.
- LJ- IblO is able to inhibit at most only 50% of the total measurable thrombin binding to platelets. Interference of thrombin binding to platelets by LJ-IblO results in decreased fibrinogen binding to platelets and also inhibits the thrombin-mediated calcium flux across the platelet membrane and release of ADP from the cells. The antibody LJ-IblO only partially inhibited thrombin- induced platelet aggregation.
- the antibody F124H12 (4H12) is similar to the LJ-IblO antibody, but demonstrates advantageous properties over that and the other previously described antibodies to GPIb. 4H12 completely inhibits the high affinity binding of thrombin to GPIb, as shown for LJIb-10. As a result, 4H12 completely inhibits the binding of fibrinogen to platelets that results from thrombin activation of the cells. 4H12 also completely inhibits the other physiologic responses of platelets to thrombin.
- Platelets incubated with 4H12 prior to thrombin exposure retain their unactivated shape, do not exhibit a flux of calcium across the membrane and do not release ADP, serotonin, lysosomes or alpha granules, do not convert arachidonate to thromboxane, and most importantly, the platelets do not aggregate.
- the invention is characterized by the example of the monoclonal antibody F124H12, which specifically binds to the oc chain of the GPIb. By means of this interaction, the antibody totally inhibits the binding of thrombin to normal human platelets.
- the antibody 4H12 has also been used in studies of the role played by thrombin in maintaining the adhesion of platelets to ⁇ ubendothelial surfaces in the vascular system. 4H12, either as intact antibodies, or as Fab or (Fab') 2 fragments, inhibits platelet adhesion to subendothelial surfaces at high shear rates. This inhibition occurs despite the observation that 4H12 does not inhibit ristocetin- or botrocetin-induced binding of von Willebrand factor to platelet cells.
- this antibody has, by in vitro and ex vivo studies, an excellent potential for being an effective antithrombotic agent by i) inhibiting thrombin binding to platelets, and ii) by inhibiting platelet adhesion to subendothelial surfaces.
- Figure l shows the time course of binding of human alpha thrombin to platelets purified free of plasma proteins.
- Figure 2 illustrates a Scatchard analysis of thrombin binding to human platelets purified free of plasma proteins.
- Figure 3 illustrates the results of a study showing the complete inhibition of high and partial inhibition of moderate affinity thrombin binding to purified platelets by monoclonal antibody 4H12.
- Figure 4 shows the immunoprecipitation of the platelet membrane glycoprotein GPIb by the antibody 4H12.
- Figure 5A and 5B shows inhibition of thrombin stimulation of ATP release from platelets and platelet aggregation by antibody 4H12.
- Figure 5A shows the result of a control experiment using the irrelevant antibody 122C11.
- Figure 5B shows the result obtained using antibody 4H12. ( , ATP release; , platelet aggregation)
- Figure 6A-6D show the dose dependence of inhibition of thrombin-induced platelet aggregation by the antibody 4H12 (6A, 0 ⁇ g/ml antibody, 6B, 25 ⁇ g/ml, 6C, 3.35 ⁇ g/ml, 6D, 0.87 ⁇ g/ml)
- the 4H12 antibody is important in inhibiting the interaction of platelets with thrombin.
- the interaction of platelets with thrombin result in a platelet shape change, release of alpha granule constituents and the expression of adhesive proteins on the surface, dense body release reaction, platelet aggregation, and platelet adherence to the subendothelial surface; however, the antibody 4H12 inhibits all of these reactions.
- These reactions are of central importance in the formation of thrombi on areas of diseased blood vessel surface, in areas of thrombin formation or in areas of high shear force such as a partial obstruction of a coronary artery.
- the antibody 4H12 In vitro, the antibody 4H12 totally interrupts the sequence of events leading to platelet activation that are mediated by thrombin binding and thus can inhibit the effects of thrombin on platelet release and platelet aggregation. This capability has been explored in flowing and static systems.
- This antibody has the ability to totally inhibit thrombin interaction with platelets and the effects of thrombin on platelets. This presents a major advance in the field of monoclonal antibodies which inhibit platelet function. It has been postulated and proven that thrombin is generated in areas of thrombosis. Thrombin has a high affinity to bind to platelet GPIb and to cause the reactions described above.
- the antibody 4H12 has the ability to totally inhibit the effects of thrombin on human platelets.
- the antibody 4H12 displays the following characteristics which have not been demonstrated by previous monoclonal antibodies: i) inhibition of nanomolar concentrations of thrombin to platelets; ii) total inhibition of thrombin-induced platelet aggregation; iii) inhibition of >90% of thrombin-induced Von Willebrand factor or fibrinogen binding to platelets; iv) inhibition of platelet adhesion to the subendothelial layer of arterial walls under shear flow.
- EXAMPLE I ISOLATION OF HYBRIDOMAS SECRETING ANTIBODIES WHICH INHIBIT THROMBIN BINDING TO PLATELETS
- mice were immunized with purified human platelets, separated from human plasma on arabinogalactan gradients. After six weeks, spleens were removed and the cells dissociated in culture. The immunized spleen cells were hybridized with mouse myeloma cells (SP2-0-Agl4) and distributed in microtiter dishes in the manner well-known in the art. Cultures which demonstrated proliterative growth were cloned by a limiting dilution method. Two separate immunization and fusion experiments were performed. Thus established hybridoma cell lines were grown in the peritoneal cavity of BALB/c mice and the ascites fluid was obtained therefrom.
- SP2-0-Agl4 mouse myeloma cells
- samples of ascites fluid from 250 clones pooled from both fusions were screened by incubating 8 x 10 7 arabinogalactan purified human platelets with 25-50 ⁇ l of ascites fluid in a total volume of 0.4 ml of buffer. To this mixture, 1 x 10 4 cpm of 12S I radiolabelled thrombin were added. The samples were washed to remove unbound thrombin and the amount of radioactivity bound to the cell fraction was quantitated using a gamma counter (TRACOR Analytic) .

- Human platelets were purified on LAREX gradients. The platelets were separated from all other cellular elements and plasma proteins by centrifugation on a discontinuous gradient, 10%-20% LAREX. The platelets were washed once and then suspended in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) . The platelets were diluted in buffer to a count of 2 x 10 5 cells/ ⁇ l. 400 ⁇ l of purified platelets were placed in a test tube to which varying concentrations of monoclonal antibody was added. The monoclonal antibody concentration varied from 0.05 ⁇ g/ml to 50 ⁇ g/ml. The antibody and platelets were incubated for 5 minutes, at which time thrombin was added to a concentration of 0.01 U/ml.

- Figure 5 illustrates the effect of antibody 4H12 on the thrombin-induced aggregation of platelets and also shows that 4H12 inhibits ATP release from platelets upon stimulation by thrombin.
- Figure 5A results using an irrelevant, control antibody 122C11, are shown.
- Figure 5B illustrates the same experiment performed using the antibody 4H12. The total inhibition of both ATP release and platelet aggregation by antibody 4H12 is clearly evident from comparison of the two figures.
- Figure 6 illustrates the dose-dependence of the inhibition of platelet aggregation by antibody 4H12.
