Definitions
- the present invention relates to new dual specificity antibody fusion proteins.
- Such antibodies comprise a first specificity to an antigen of interest, and a second specificity for a second antigen of interest, for example a serum carrier protein for use in extending their in vivo serum half-life.
- a serum carrier protein for use in extending their in vivo serum half-life.
- antibody fragments such as Fv, Fab, Fab' and F(ab') 2 fragments and other antibody fragments.
- Fv, Fab, Fab' and F(ab') 2 fragments retain the antigen binding activity of whole antibodies and can also exhibit improved tissue penetration and pharmacokinetic properties in comparison to whole immunoglobulin molecules.
- antibody fragments are proving to be versatile therapeutic agents, as seen by the recent success of products such as ReoPro® and Lucentis®.
- Dual specificity antibodies are also described in WO02/02773, US2007065440, US2006257406, US2006106203 and US2006280734.
- Previous approaches to making hetero-bispecific antibody-based molecules have generally employed chemical cross-linking or protein engineering techniques. Chemical cross-linking suffers from poor yields of hetero- and homo- dimer formation and the requirement for their subsequent chromatographic separation.
- Protein engineering approaches have either been highly elaborate (e.g. knobs-into- holes engineering; Ridgway et al., 1996, Protein Eng. 9(7):617-621) or have used molecules with inappropriate stability characteristics (e.g. diabodies, scFv).
- bispecific antibodies can also suffer from steric hindrance problems such that both antigens cannot bind simultaneously to each antibody arm.
- Single variable domain antibodies also known as single domain antibodies or dAbs, correspond to the variable regions of either the heavy (VH) or light (VL) chain of an antibody.
- Murine single-domain antibodies were described by Ward et al., 1989, Nature, 341, 544-546. Human and 'camelised' human single domain antibodies have also been described (Holt et al., 2003, Trends in Biotechnology, 21, 484-490). Single domain antibodies have also been obtained from the camelids (camels and llamas) and cartilaginous fish (wobbegong and nurse sharks).
- VhH high affinity single V-like domains
- V-NAR high affinity single V-like domains
- Single domain antibody-enzyme fusions have been described in EP0368684.
- Single domain-effector group fusions have also been described in WO2004/058820 which comprise a single variable domain.
- Dual variable domain immunoglobulins have been described in WO2007/024715.
- Dual specific ligands comprising two single domain antibodies with differing specificities have been described in EP1517921. Means to improve the half-life of antibody fragments, such as Fv, Fab, Fab',
- F(ab') 2 and other antibody fragments are known.
- One approach has been to conjugate the fragment to polymer molecules.
- PEG polyethylene glycol
- Another approach has been to modify the antibody fragment by conjugation to an agent that interacts with the FcRn receptor (see, for example, WO97/34631).
- Yet another approach to extend half-life has been to use polypeptides that bind serum albumin (see, for example, Smith et al., 2001, Bioconjugate Chem.
- thyroxine-binding protein thyroxine-binding protein
- transthyretin ⁇ l-acid glycoprotein
- transferrin fibrinogen and albumin
- Serum carrier proteins circulate within the body with half-lives measured in days, for example, 5 days for thyroxine-binding protein or 2 days for transthyretin (Bartalena & Robbins, 1993, Clinics in Lab. Med. 13:583-598), or 65 hours in the second phase of turnover of iodinated ⁇ l-acid glycoprotein (Bree et al., 1986, Clin. Pharmacokin. 1 1 :336-342). Data from Gitlin et al. (1964, J. Clin. Invest.

- the recruitment of effector function may be direct in that effector function is associated with a cell, said cell bearing a recruitment molecule on its surface. Indirect recruitment may occur when binding of a dAb to a recruitment molecule causes release of, for example, a factor which in turn may directly or indirectly recruit effector function, or may be via activation of a signalling pathway. Examples include TNF ⁇ , IL2, IL6, IL8, ILl 7, IFN ⁇ , histamine, CIq, opsonin and other members of the classical and alternative complement activation cascades, such as C2, C4, C3- convertase, and C5 to C9.

For non-reduced samples, 2 ⁇ L of 10OmM NEM was added at this point, for reduced samples 2 ⁇ L of 1OX reducing agent was added. The sample were vortexed, incubated at 85 0 C for 5 mins, cooled and centrifuged at 12500 rpm for 30secs. The prepared samples were loaded on to a 4-20% acrylamine Tris/Glycine SDS gel and run for lOOmins at 125 V. The gels were either transferred onto PVDF membranes for Western blotting or stained with Coomassie Blue protein stain.
- the yields of Fab-dAb were measured using a sandwich ELISA. Briefly, the Fab- dAb was captured with an anti-CHI antibody then revealed with an anti-kappa-HRP.
- the light chain grafted sequences were sub-cloned into the rabbit light chain expression vector pVRbcK which contains the DNA encoding the rabbit C-Kappa constant region.
- the heavy chain grafted sequences were sub-cloned into the rabbit heavy chain expression vector pVRbHFab, which contains the DNA encoding the rabbit Fab' heavy chain constant region. Plasmids were co-transfected into CHO cells and the antibodies produced screened for albumin binding and affinity (Table 1). Transfections of CHO cells were performed using the LipofectamineTM 2000 procedure according to manufacturer's instructions (InVitrogen, catalogue No. 1 1668).
- Humanised VL and VH regions were designed using human V-region acceptor frameworks and donor residues in the framework regions.
- One grafted VL region (Ll (SEQ ID NO:53) and L2 (SEQ ID NO:55)) and one VH region (Hl (SEQ ID NO:52) and H2 (SEQ ID NO:54)) were designed for each of antibodies 1 and 2 respectively and genes were built by oligonucleotide assembly and PCR mutagenesis.
- the grafted domain antibodies and their CDRs are shown in Figure 5.
- FabB-dAb constructs were produced as described in the methods and the supernatants from the tranfected HEK293 cells containing the FabB-dAbs were tested directly in BIAcore.
- FabB-dAb constructs were assessed to assess the interaction of HSA with FabB-dAb constructs. These consisted of either dAbLl, dAbH2 or dAbL3 fused to the C- terminus of CHl of FabB (See Figure 6).
- the FabB-dAbH2 was shown to possess the poorest affinity towards HSA, K D - 1074nM, see Table 2.
- FabB-didAb constructs were produced as described in the methods and the supernatants from the tranfected HEK293 cells containing the didAbs tested directly in BIAcore.
- Plasmids for expression of the Fab-dAbs, Fab'A-dAbL3 (CK-SG 4 SE) Fab'A-dAbL3 (CK-G[APAPA] 2 ) in E.coli were constructed as described in the methods.
- the Fab- dAbs were expressed into the periplasm of the E.coli and purified to homogeneity as described in the methods.
- the purity of the Fab-dAbs were assessed by high temperature reverse phase HPLC, SDS-PAGE and Western blotting.
- the Fab-dAbs were also assessed for antigen binding by Biacore.
- Fab-dAb samples were prepared under non-reduced and reduced conditions and run on a gel as described in the methods. The gel was Coomassie stained. The banding profile of both Fab-dAb samples, Fab'A-dAbL3 (CK-SG 4 SE) and Fab'A-dAbL3 (CK-G[APAPA] 2 ), corresponds well to the profile observed by high temperature reverse phase HPLC (figure 3).
- Fab-dAb samples were subjected to non-reduced SDS-PAGE followed by western blot analysis with anti-light chain and anti-heavy chain antibodies as described in the methods. This confirmed that the dAb was on the light chain of the Fab and that the heavy chain was unmodified in both samples (figure 4). It also demonstrates that all bands detected by coomassie stained, non-reduced SDS PAGE are Fab-dAb related products.
- each construct to bind simultaneously to both human serum albumin and the IL- l ⁇ antigen was assessed by capturing each construct to the sensor chip surface, before performing either separate 3 min injections of 5 ⁇ M human serum albumin or 10OnM IL- l ⁇ , or a mixed solution of both 5 ⁇ M human serum albumin and 10OnM IL- l ⁇ .
- the response seen for the combined HSA/IL-l ⁇ solution was almost identical to the sum of the responses of the independent injections, see table 7. This shows that the Fab-dAbs are capable of simultaneous binding to both IL- l ⁇ and human serum albumin, and that binding of either IL- l ⁇ or human serum albumin does not inhibit the interaction of the other.
- the original FabA bound only to IL- l ⁇ , with negligible binding to human serum albumin.
- the table above shows the binding response (RU) seen for each construct after separate injections of HSA or IL- l ⁇ , or injection of premixed HSA and IL-I ⁇ .

- FabA-dAbs and FabA-didAb fusions terminating with a C-terminal histidine tag were expressed in Escherichia coli. After periplasmic extraction, dAb fusion proteins were purified via the C-terminal His6 tag. Fab expression was analysed by Western blotting of a non-reduced gel with anti-CHI and anti-cKappa antibodies. FabA-dAb and FabA-didAb were expressed as full-length proteins and were shown to react to both antibody detection reagents.
- Binding assays were performed on a variety of constructs in which dAbL3 or dAbH4 fused to either the light or heavy chain of the FabA (see Table 8 for details of the constructs and summary of the binding data). Although constructs carrying only dAbH4, on either the light or heavy chain, were seen to bind HSA with comparatively poor affinity ( ⁇ 9 ⁇ M and 3 ⁇ M respectively), higher affinity binding was observed for constructs carrying dAbL3, either as a single fusion (on either light or heavy chain) or partnered with a second dAb (dAbL3 or dAbH4) on the opposing chain.
