- AAT a deficiency of AAT, usually as a result of a point mutation that causes ATT to aggregate and accumulate in the liver, leaves the lungs exposed to unchecked NE activity.
- Individuals with AAT deficiencies are at increased the risk of emphysema, COPD, liver disease, and numerous other conditions.
- AAT deficiency affects approximately 100,000 Americans (according to estimates from the Alpha-1 Foundation), and many of the afflicted people die in their 30's and 40's.
- There are currently only a few FDA-approved drugs for treatment of ATT deficiency Prolastin®, AralastTM, Zemaira®, GlassiaTM.
- Each drug is the natural AAT derived from pooled human plasma, which appears to be insufficient to meet the anticipated clinical demand.
- these products have short serum half-lives (T 2 of approximately 5 days) and require high dose (60 mg/kg body weight) weekly infusions.
- the current market for these drugs is estimated at approximately $400 million.
- AAT-like drugs are likely substantially larger, based on the estimation that as many as 95% of individuals with AAT-deficiencies go undiagnosed, and the fact that these drugs have the potential to be effective therapies for pathologies characterized by enhanced NE activity in individuals that are not AAT-deficient (e.g., cystic fibrosis (CF), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), smoking-induced emphysema and/or COPD).
- CF cystic fibrosis
- ARDS acute respiratory distress syndrome
- COPD smoking-induced emphysema and/or COPD
- AAT has been suggested to have broad spectrum anti-inflammatory activity (Tilg et al 1993 J Exp Med 178: 1629-1636, Libert et al 1996 Immunol 157:5126-5129, Pott et al, Journal of Leukocyte Biology 85 2009, Janciauskiene et al 2007 J. Biol Chem
- AAT may be useful in treating numerous human pathologies, outside of the commonly suggested inflammatory pulmonary conditions.
- Human AAT has shown to protect mice from clinical and histopathological signs of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), suggesting it could be a potential treatment of autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis or systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) (Subramanian et a 201 i Metab Brain Dis 26: 107-1 13 ).
- Serum AAT has shown activity in rodent models of Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) (Tawara et al 201 1 Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 109: 564-569, Marcondes et al 2011 5/ooi/ Nov 3; 1 18(18):5031-9), which has led to a human clinical trial using AAT to treat individuals with Steroid Non-responsive Acute GVHD (NCT01523821).
- GVHD Graft Versus Host Disease
- AAT has been effective in animal models of type I and type II diabetes, dampening inflammation, protecting islet cells from apoptosis and enabling durable islet cell allograft (Zhang et al 2007 Diabetes 56: 1316- 1323, Lewis et al 2005 Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 102: 12153-12158, Lewis et al 2008 Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 105: 16236-16241, Kalis et al 2010 Islets 2: 185-189).
- the fusion proteins of the present invention have enhanced functionalities compared to the unmodified AAT molecule.
- the fusion of an AAT polypeptide with a second polypeptide that interacts with the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) serves to increase the serum half-life, providing a much needed dosing benefit for patients.
- FcRn interacting polypeptides of the fusion protein include immunoglobulin (Ig) Fc polypeptides derived from human IgGl, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, or IgM, and derivatives of human albumin.
- the fusion protein incorporates mutations with the AAT portion that render the molecule more resistant to inactivation by oxidation.
- AAT is a natural anti-inflammatory protein
- some embodiments of the invention provide enhanced inflammation dampening capacity through the fusion of an AAT polypeptide and a cytokine targeting polypeptide.
- the coupling of dual antiinflammatory functionalities from AAT and a second polypeptide will provide more a potent therapeutic protein than either polypeptide on their own. Additionally, the coupling the anti-infective activity of AAT will mitigate the infection risk of most cytokine targeting biologies.
- Some embodiments provide for more potent anti-inflammatory and anti-infective proteins through the fusion an AAT -polypeptide and WAP domain contain polypeptide.
- the fusion proteins of the present invention are expected to be a great therapeutic utility and be superior to the current serum derived AAT products.
- the fusion proteins of the present invention are shown to be potent inhibitors of NE, have extended serum half-lives, and in some embodiments resistant to oxidation. In other embodiments, the fusion proteins described herein have distinct properties by the incorporation of other functional polypeptides, including cytokine targeting polypeptides, and WAP domain containing polypeptides.
- oxidation of an Fc region at Met252 and Met428 has been shown to reduce FcRn binding and subsequently reduce the serum half-life of the Fc containing protein.
- Mutation of Met252 and Met428 reduces oxidation of the Fc region.
