Definitions

  • the present disclosure belongs to the field of biotechnology. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to anti-PD-1 antibodies and applications thereof.
  • Tumor immunotherapy is a treatment method that fully utilizes and mobilizes the killer T cells in tumor patients to kill the tumor.
  • the escape of tumor cells is a huge obstacle to tumor immunotherapy.
  • Tumor cells use their own inhibitory effect on the immune system to promote the rapid growth of tumors.
  • tumor-specific killer T cells In the early stage of tumor immunotherapy, tumor-specific killer T cells have their biological activity, but as the tumor grows, they lose their killing function in the later stage.
  • T cells adopts two signal pathway systems.
  • a series of co-stimulatory molecules are also required to provide the second signal.
  • T cells produce a normal immune response.
  • This dual signal pathway system plays a vital role in the balance of the immune system in the body. It strictly regulates the body's different immune responses to self and non-self antigens. If the second signal provided by the costimulatory molecule is absent, it will lead to a non-response of T cells or a sustained specific immune response, thereby creating tolerance. Therefore, the second signaling pathway plays a very critical regulatory role in the entire process of the body's immune response.
  • PD-l Programmed death-l
  • CTL-4 cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4
  • PD-1 has two ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2.
  • PD-L1 is mainly expressed on T cells, B cells, macrophages and dendritic cells (DC), and the expression on cells can be up-regulated after activation.
  • the expression of PD-L2 is relatively limited, and is mainly expressed on antigen-presenting cells, such as activated macrophages and dendritic cells.
  • PD-L1 inhibits the immune system by combining with PD-1 and B7-1.
  • Many tumor cells and immune cells in the tumor tissue microenvironment express PD-L1.
  • New research has found that breast cancer, lung cancer (for example, non-small cell lung cancer), gastric cancer, bowel cancer, kidney cancer, melanoma, colon cancer, bladder cancer, ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer and liver cancer are highly detected in human tumor tissues.
  • the expression of PD-L1 protein, and the expression level of PD-L1 is closely related to the clinical and prognosis of patients.
  • the anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody can block the binding between PD-L1/PD-1 and maximize the patient's own immune system response to tumors, thereby achieving the purpose of killing tumor cells.

Description

抗PD-1抗体、其抗原结合片段及医药用途 技术领域
本公开属于生物技术领域,更具体地,本公开涉及抗PD-1抗体及其应用。
背景技术
这里的陈述仅是提供与本发明有关的背景信息,而不必然地构成现有技术。
肿瘤免疫治疗是充分利用、调动肿瘤患者体内的杀伤性T细胞,对肿瘤进行杀伤作用的治疗方法。与此同时,肿瘤细胞逃逸是肿瘤免疫治疗面临的一个巨大障碍,肿瘤细胞利用其自身对免疫系统的抑制作用促进了肿瘤的快速生长。肿瘤的免疫逃逸机制与机体对肿瘤的免疫应答之间存在着极为复杂的关系。在肿瘤免疫治疗早期肿瘤特异性的杀伤性T细胞是有其生物活性的,但随着肿瘤生长在后期失去了杀伤的功能。
人体内T细胞的活化采取了两条信号通路系统,除了需要通过抗原呈递细胞递呈MHC-抗原肽给T细胞提供第一信号外,还需要一系列协同刺激分子提供第二信号,进而才能使T细胞产生正常的免疫应答。这个双信号通路系统对体内免疫系统的平衡起着至关重要的作用,它严格调控机体对自身和非自身抗原产生不同的免疫应答。如果缺少协同刺激分子提供的第二信号,将会导致T细胞的无应答或持续特异性免疫应答,从而产生耐受。因此,第二信号通路在机体免疫应答的整个过程中起着非常关键的调节作用。
程序性死亡分子1(programmed death-l,PD-l)是1992年发现的表达在T细胞表面的一个蛋白受体,参与到细胞的凋亡过程之中。PD-l属于CD28家族,与细胞毒性T淋巴细胞抗原4(cytotoxic T Iymphocyte antigen 4,CTLA-4)具有23%的氨基酸同源性,但其表达却与CTLA不同,主要表达在活化的T细胞、B细胞和髓系细胞上。PD-1有两个配体,分别为PD-L1和PD-L2。PD-L1主要表达于T细胞、B细胞、巨噬细胞和树突状细胞(dendritic cell,DC)上,在活化后细胞上的表达能够进行上调。而PD-L2的表达相对较局限,主要表达在抗原呈递细胞上,如活化的巨噬细胞和树突状细胞。
PD-L1通过和PD-1及B7-1的结合抑制免疫系统,很多肿瘤细胞及肿瘤组织微环境的免疫细胞表达PD-L1。新的研究发现乳腺癌、肺癌(例如,非小细胞肺癌)、胃癌、肠癌、肾癌、黑素瘤、结肠癌、膀胱癌、卵巢癌、胰腺癌及肝癌等人类肿瘤组织中检测到高PD-L1蛋白的表达,且PD-L1的表达水平和患者的临床及预后紧密相关。
抗PD-1单克隆抗体,它可通过阻断PD-L1/PD-1之间结合,最大限度的提高患者自身对肿瘤的免疫系统反应,从而达到对肿瘤细胞进行杀伤的目的。目前,抗PD-1抗体Pembrolizumab(也称Merck keytruda、keytruda、Merck-Pemb、 Merck-keytruda、Merck-PD-1、派姆单抗)和Novilumab(也称BMS Opdivo、Opdivo、BMS-Nivolumab、纳武单抗)已经获FDA批准用于治疗黑色素瘤、霍奇金淋巴瘤患者、非小细胞肺癌等肿瘤。另外专利文献WO200139722、WO2006121168、WO2010036959、WO2010089411、WO2011110604、WO2013173223、WO2013181634、US2014335093、US6803192B1、US8617546B2、WO2015085847等也公开了多种抗PD-1单克隆抗体。

具体实施方式
概述
为了更容易理解本公开,以下具体定义了某些技术和科学术语。除非在本文中另有明确定义,本文使用的所有其它技术和科学术语都具有本公开所属领域的一般技术人员通常理解的含义。
术语“程序性死亡1”、“细胞程序性死亡1”、“蛋白PD-1”、“PD-1”、“PDCD1” 和“hPD-1”可互换使用,且包括人PD-1的变体、同种型、物种同源物、以及与PD-1具有至少一个共同表位的类似物。完整的PD-1序列可以GenBank登录号U64863找到。
术语“程序性死亡配体-1(PD-L1)”是PD-1的两种细胞表面糖蛋白配体之一(另一种为PD-L2),它在与PD-1结合时下调T细胞活化和细胞因子分泌。如本文中使用的术语“PD-L1”包括人PD-L1(hPD-L1),hPD-L1的变体、同种型、和种间同源物,以及5种与hPD-L1具有至少一个共同表位的类似物。完整的hPD-L1序列可以用GenBank登录号Q9NZQ7查到。
术语“细胞因子”是由一个细胞群体释放的、作为细胞间介质作用于其它细胞的蛋白质的一般术语。这样的细胞因子的例子包括淋巴因子、单核因子、趋化因子和传统的多肽激素。示例性的细胞因子包括:人IL-2、IFN-γ、IL-6、TNFα、IL-17和IL-5。
本公开所用氨基酸三字母代码和单字母代码如J.biol.chem,243,p3558(1968)中所述。
本公开所述的“抗体”指一般是免疫球蛋白,一个天然完整抗体是由两条相同的重链和两条相同的轻链通过链间二硫键连接而成的四肽链结构。免疫球蛋白重链恒定区的氨基酸组成和排列顺序不同,故其抗原性也不同。据此,可将免疫球蛋白分为五类,或称为免疫球蛋白的同种型,即IgM、IgD、IgG、IgA和IgE,其相应的重链分别为μ链、δ链、γ链、α链、和ε链。同一类Ig根据其铰链区氨基酸组成和重链二硫键的数目和位置的差别,又可分为不同的亚类,如IgG可分为IgG1、IgG2、IgG3、IgG4。轻链通过恒定区的不同分为κ链或λ链。五类Ig中每类Ig都可以有κ链或λ链。本公开所称抗体包括抗体或其抗原结合片段,包括在免疫球蛋白基础上经过改造,同时保留结合抗原的能力的抗体或其抗原结合片段;包括单特异性抗体、双特异性抗体或多特异性抗体;还包括一价抗体、二价抗体或多价抗体。抗体的抗原结合片段,例如可以是包含至少一个VH-CH1和至少一个VL-CL结构,其中VH和VL结构能够基于链间相互作用而靠近,并保留结合抗原的能力的抗原结合片段,在一些实施方案中,所述抗体的抗原结合片段为一价Fab片段(Fab1片段)、二价Fab片段(F(ab)2)、三价Fab片段(F(ab)3)、多价(两个或以上)Fab片段,也可以是其它包含至少一个Fab片段的单特异性、双特异性或多特异性抗原结合片段。
“双特异性抗体”指能够对两个不同抗原或同一抗原的两个不同抗原表位特异性结合的抗体(包括抗体或其抗原结合片段,如单链抗体)。现有技术已公开了各种结构的双特异性抗体,根据IgG分子的完整性分可为IgG样双特异性抗体和抗体片段型双特异性抗体,根据抗原结合区域的数量构型可分为二价、三价、四价或更多价的双特异性抗体,根据结构左右是否对称性可分为对称结构双特异性抗体和不对称结构双特异性抗体。其中,基于抗体片段的双特异性抗体,例如缺 乏Fc片段的Fab片段,其通过将2个或多个Fab片段结合在一个分子中形成双特异性抗体,其具有较低的免疫原性,且分子量小,具有较高的肿瘤组织渗透性,该类型的典型的抗体结构如F(ab)2、scFv-Fab、(scFv)2-Fab等双特异性抗体;IgG样双特异性抗体(例如具有Fc片段),这类抗体相对分子量较大,Fc片段有助于抗体后期的纯化,并提高其溶解性、稳定性,Fc部分还可能会与受体FcRn结合,增加抗体血清半衰期,典型的双特异性抗体结构模型如KiH、CrossMAb、Triomab quadroma、FcΔAdp、ART-Ig、BiMAb、Biclonics、BEAT、DuoBody、Azymetric、XmAb、2:1TCBs、1Fab-IgG TDB、FynomAb、two-in-one/DAF、scFv-Fab-IgG、DART-Fc、LP-DART、CODV-Fab-TL、HLE-BiTE、F(ab)2-CrossMAb、IgG-(scFv)2、Bs4Ab、DVD-Ig、Tetravalent-DART-Fc、(scFv)4-Fc、CODV-Ig、mAb2、F(ab)4-CrossMAb等等双特异性抗体(参见Aran F.Labrijn等,Nature Reviews Drug Discovery volume 18,pages585–608(2019);Chen S1等,J Immunol Res.2019Feb11;2019:4516041)。
术语“一价”、“二价”、“三价”或“多价”是指抗体或多肽复合物中存在指定数量的抗原结合位点。例如“一价抗体”表示抗体中存在一个抗原结合位点,“一价多肽复合物”表示多肽复合物中存在一个抗原结合位点;“二价抗体”表示抗体中存在两个抗原结合位点,“二价多肽复合物”表示多肽复合物中存在两个抗原结合位点;“三价抗体”表示抗体中存在三个抗原结合位点,“三价多肽复合物”表示多肽复合物中存在三个抗原结合位点;“多价抗体”表示抗体中存在多个(三个或以上)抗原结合位点,“多价多肽复合物”表示多肽复合物中存在多个(两个或以上)抗原结合位点。
术语“抗体融合蛋白”是指将目的蛋白质(多肽)与免疫球蛋白连接形成的具有生物活性的融合蛋白,所述的融合蛋白具有所连接的蛋白质的生物学活性以及免疫球蛋白活性。
抗体重链和轻链靠近N端的约110个氨基酸的序列变化很大,为可变区(Fv区);靠近C端的其余氨基酸序列相对稳定,为恒定区。可变区包括3个高变区(HVR)和4个序列相对保守的骨架区(FR)。3个高变区决定抗体的特异性,又称为互补性决定区(CDR)。每条轻链可变区(VL)和重链可变区(VH)由3个CDR区4个FR区组成,从氨基端到羧基端依次排列的顺序为:FR1,CDR1,FR2,CDR2,FR3,CDR3,FR4。轻链的3个CDR区指LCDR1、LCDR2、和LCDR3;重链的3个CDR区指HCDR1、HCDR2和HCDR3。
本公开的抗体包括鼠源抗体、嵌合抗体、人源化抗体和全人抗体,优选人源化抗体。
术语“鼠源抗体”在本公开中为根据本领域知识和技能制备的针对人PD-1的单克隆抗体。制备时用PD-1抗原注射试验对象,然后分离表达具有所需序列或功能特性的抗体的杂交瘤。在本公开一个优选的实施方案中,所述的鼠源抗PD-1抗体 或其抗原结合片段,可进一步包含鼠源κ、λ链或其变体的轻链恒定区,或进一步包含鼠源IgG1、IgG2、IgG3或其变体的重链恒定区。
术语“嵌合抗体(chimeric antibody)”,是将鼠源性抗体的可变区与人抗体的恒定区融合而成的抗体,可以减轻鼠源性抗体诱发的免疫应答反应。建立嵌合抗体,要先建立分泌鼠源性特异性单抗的杂交瘤,然后从鼠杂交瘤细胞中克隆可变区基因,再根据需要克隆人抗体的恒定区基因,将鼠可变区基因与人恒定区基因连接成嵌合基因后插入表达载体中,最后在真核系统或原核系统中表达嵌合抗体分子。在本公开一个优选的实施方案中,所述的PD-L1嵌合抗体的抗体轻链进一步包含人源κ、λ链或其变体的轻链恒定区。所述的PD-1嵌合抗体的抗体重链进一步包含人源IgG1、IgG2、IgG3、IgG4或其变体的重链恒定区,优选包含人源IgG1、IgG2或IgG4重链恒定区,或者使用氨基酸突变(例如L234A和/或L235A突变,和/或S228P突变)的IgG1、IgG2或IgG4变体。
术语“人源化抗体(humanized antibody)”,也称为CDR移植抗体(CDR-grafted antibody),是指将鼠的CDR序列移植到人的抗体可变区框架,即不同类型的人种系抗体框架序列中产生的抗体。可以克服嵌合抗体由于携带大量鼠蛋白成分,从而诱导的异源性反应。此类构架序列可以从包括种系抗体基因序列的公共DNA数据库或公开的参考文献获得。如人重链和轻链可变区基因的种系DNA序列可以在“VBase”人种系序列数据库(在因特网www.mrccpe.com.ac.uk/vbase可获得),以及在Kabat,E.A.等人,1991Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,第5版中找到。为避免免疫原性下降的同时,引起的活性下降,可对所述的人抗体可变区框架序列进行最少反向突变或回复突变,以保持活性。本公开的人源化抗体也包括进一步由酵母菌展示对CDR进行亲和力成熟突变后的人源化抗体。
由于抗原的接触残基,CDR的移植可由于与抗原接触的构架残基而导致产生的抗体或其抗原结合片段对抗原的亲和力减弱。此类相互作用可以可能是体细胞高度突变的结果。因此,可能仍然需要将此类供体构架氨基酸移植至人源化抗体的构架。来自非人抗体或其抗原结合片段的参与抗原结合的氨基酸残基可通过检查动物单克隆抗体可变区序列和结构来鉴定。CDR供体构架中与种系不同的各残基可被认为是相关的。如果不能确定最接近的种系,那么可将序列与亚类共有序列或具有高相似性百分数的动物抗体序列的共有序列相比较。稀有构架残基被认为可能是体细胞高度突变的结果,从而在结合中起着重要作用。
在本公开一个的实施方案中,所述的抗体或其抗原结合片段,可进一步包含人源或鼠源κ、λ链或其变体的轻链恒定区,或进一步包含人源或鼠源IgG1、IgG2、IgG3、IgG4或其变体的重链恒定区;优选包含人源IgG1、IgG2或IgG4重链恒定区,或者使用氨基酸突变(例如L234A和/或L235A突变、和/或S228P突变)的IgG1、IgG2或IgG4变体。
本公开中所述人抗体重链恒定区和人抗体轻链恒定区的“常规变体”是指现有 技术已公开的来源于人的不改变抗体可变区结构和功能的重链恒定区或轻链恒定区的变体,示例性变体包括对重链恒定区进行定点改造和氨基酸替换的IgG1、IgG2、IgG3或IgG4重链恒定区变体,具体替换如现有技术已知的YTE突变,L234A和/或L235A突变,S228P突变,和/或获得knob-into-hole结构的突变(使得抗体重链具有knob-Fc和hole-Fc组合),这些突变已被证实使得抗体具有新的性能,但不改变抗体可变区的功能。
“人抗体”(HuMAb)、“人源抗体”、“全人抗体”、“完全人抗体”可以互换使用,可以是源于人的抗体或者是从一种转基因生物体中获得的抗体,该转基因生物体经“改造”以响应于抗原刺激而产生特异性人抗体并且可以通过本领域已知的任何方法产生。在某些技术中,将人重链和轻链基因座的元素元件引入到源于胚胎干细胞系的生物体的细胞株中,这些细胞系中的内源性重链和轻链基因座被靶向破坏这些细胞系中包含靶向的内源性重链和轻链基因座破坏。转基因生物可以合成对人抗原特异的人抗体,并且该生物可以用于产生人抗体-分泌杂交瘤。人抗体还可以是一种抗体,其中重链和轻链是由源于一个或更多个人DNA来源的核苷酸序列编码的。完全人抗体还可以通过基因或染色体转染方法以及噬菌体展示技术来构建,或者由体外活化的B细胞构建,所有的这些都是本领域已知的。
