Description

人源化抗 EGFR抗体 L4-H3及其编码基因 技术领域
本发明涉及一种抗 EGFR人源化抗体 L4-H3及其编码基因与应用。 背景技术
表皮生长因子受体 ( epidemic growth factor receptor , EGFR ) 是 表皮生长因子基因 (erbB ) 家族的一员, 在约 30%的人体肿瘤中过度表达, 尤其是非小细胞型肺癌、 头颈部鳞状细胞癌和结直肠癌等。 国内外许多研 究表明, 针对 EGFR 的抗体可有效地在胞外通过阻断配体的结合来实现对 EGFR信号转导途径的抑制,对多种由 EGFR过度表达或 /和突变所引起的人 体肿瘤,尤其是头颈部鳞状细胞癌(80 %〜100%),结直肠癌(25 %〜77%), 非小细胞型肺癌(40 %〜80%)等有较好的疗效。 表皮生长因子受体成为目 前研究较深入且倍受关注的肿瘤治疗靶点之一,应用基因工程研制抗 EGFR 的单克隆抗体, 成为肿瘤免疫治疗的研究热点之一。
2004、 2006年, 美国 FDA先后批准了针对 EGFR的鼠-人嵌合抗体西妥 昔单抗 (cetuximab ) 和全人抗体帕尼单抗 (pani tumumab ) , 用于结直肠 癌治疗; 2005年, 抗 EGFR的人源化抗体尼莫珠单抗 (nimotuzumab ) 获得 了我国药监局 (SFDA) 批准的一类新药证书, 目前正在进行 Π /ΙΠ期临床 试验。 鼠源单抗在人体应用中可产生人抗鼠抗体反应, 从而影响其功能的 发挥。 采用基因工程技术改造的鼠-人嵌合抗体可大幅度减弱鼠单抗的免 疫原性、 延长抗体在体内的半衰期并可借助人免疫球蛋白 Fc 段介导免疫 调理及 ADCC 效应, 进而增强抗体的生物学效应, 但该嵌合抗体结合抗原 的能力低于鼠源抗体 98. 7%。 大量临床前及临床试验均已证实西妥昔单抗 单药及联合化疗 /放疗具有较好的疗效, 但简单 CDR 移植往往会引起抗原 抗体亲和力的下降; 帕尼单抗是采用转基因小鼠技术制备的全人抗体, 与 嵌合抗体和人源化抗体相比, 人源序列接近 100%, 大大增强了抗体靶亲和 力, 但该抗体具有鼠糖基化模式、 半衰期短和超敏反应更多等缺点。 尼莫 珠单抗则通过对抗 EGFR 鼠源单抗进行人源化改造获得了人源化抗体, 并 把抗体的轻、 重链基因分别连接至不同的表达载体进行表达, 由于轻重链 表达存在较大差异, 往往导致完整抗体分子表达水平极低。 发明内容
本发明的一个目的是提供一种抗体及其编码基因。

结果显示, 纯化所得抗体的重链与轻链的相对分子质量分别为 25 X 103、 50 X 103 (图 3 ) , 与预期结果一致。 图 3中, 泳道 1-4表示本发 明抗体 L4-H3 , 泳道 5表示阳性对照 西妥昔单抗。

免疫印记 (12%) 分析表明, 该抗体可与山羊抗人 IgG特异性结合。 但是也出现了部分与抗人 IgG 二抗反应的一些非特异杂交带(包括商品化 的西妥昔单抗), 这可能是纯化中有部分非全长的重链片段混合所至。 但 是上述结果不影响抗体亲和力的评价。 上述抗体均不与山羊抗鼠 IgGl 反 应。
由于本抗体的轻链和重链在一个表达载体上, 成比例表达, 自动组成 含两条轻链和重链的完整抗体。
