Definitions

  • the invention belongs to the field of biomedicine or biopharmaceutical technology, and specifically relates to a platform for constructing multispecific antibodies.
  • bispecific antibodies In 1960, Nisonoff and his collaborators at the Roswell Park Memorial Institute in New York first proposed the original concept of bispecific antibodies. Afterwards, with the milestone progress in the fields of antibody engineering and antibody biology, the concept and technology of constructing bispecific antibodies continued to innovate. There are currently more than 100 bispecific antibody structural models, of which about a quarter have been developed into technology platforms and commercialized by biotechnology companies and pharmaceutical companies for new antibody therapies. Up to now, there are more than 20 different commercial technology platforms available for the development of bispecific antibodies, and more than 85 bispecific antibodies are in the clinical development stage.
  • bispecific antibody blinatumomab targeting CD3 and CD19, approved by the FDA in 2014 for the treatment of acute B lymphocytic leukemia
  • T cells Interest and investment Currently, more than 40 T cell redirecting bispecific antibodies are in clinical development for the treatment of hematological tumors and solid tumors.
  • inflammatory diseases have also been the focus of clinical development of bispecific antibodies.
  • Roche's emicizumab targeted coagulation factor X and factor IXa was approved by the FDA in November 2017, and hemophilia became the first non-cancer indication for bispecific antibodies.
  • bispecific antibodies have therapeutic potential in other diseases, such as diabetes, HIV infection, other viral and bacterial infections, Alzheimer's disease, and osteoporosis.
  • the dual-targeting feature of bispecific antibodies (that is, the ability to specifically target two antigens or two different epitopes of one antigen at the same time) makes it a great therapeutic prospect, but it turns the concept of bispecific antibodies into clinical practice The treatment is still challenging.
  • bispecific antibodies are a rapidly expanding and diverse group of molecules. Although compared with monoclonal antibodies, the complexity of the dual-targeting concept has increased, and will bring additional challenges at different stages of discovery and development, but bispecific antibodies provide exciting opportunities for the design and development of new drugs . From the field of disease, the current data show that the industry is more looking forward to the treatment of cancer with bispecific antibodies. The continued development of bispecific antibodies will have a lasting impact on the treatment of diseases such as cancer.

Description

一种构建多特异性抗体的平台 技术领域
本发明属于生物医学或生物制药技术领域,具体涉及一种构建多特异性抗体的平台。
背景技术
1960年,纽约罗斯威尔公园纪念研究所的Nisonoff及其合作者首次提出了双特异性抗体(bispecific antibodys)的原始概念。之后,随着抗体工程和抗体生物学领域的里程碑进展,构建双特异性抗体的概念和技术不断创新。目前有100多种双特异性抗体结构模式,其中,约四分之一已发展成技术平台,并由生物技术公司和制药公司商业化,用于新型抗体疗法。截至目前,已有20多个不同的商业化技术平台可用于双特异性抗体的开发,超过85个双特异性抗体处于临床开发阶段。
一款T细胞参与的双特异性抗体blinatumomab(靶向CD3和CD19,于2014年获FDA批准,用于治疗急性B淋巴细胞白血病)令人印象深刻的临床结果激起了业内对这一概念的兴趣和投资。目前有40多个T细胞重定向双特异性抗体正处于临床开发阶段,用于治疗血液学肿瘤和实体肿瘤。除了癌症,炎症性疾病也一直是双特异性抗体临床开发的重点。罗氏公司的emicizumab(靶向凝血因子X和因子IXa)于2017年11月经FDA批准上市,血友病成了双特异性抗体首个非癌症适应症。目前,很多团队也在探索双特异性抗体在其它疾病领域的治疗潜力,如糖尿病、HIV感染、其它病毒和细菌感染、阿尔茨海默症、骨质疏松症等。双特异性抗体双靶向的特点(即能同时特异性靶向两个抗原或一个抗原的两个不同表位)使其具有巨大的治疗前景,但将双特异性抗体这一概念转化为临床疗法仍具有挑战性。
治疗性双特异性抗体是一个快速扩展的多样化分子群。尽管与单克隆抗体相比,双靶向概念的复杂性增加,在发现和开发的不同阶段会带来额外的挑战,但双特异性抗体为新型药物的设计与开发提供了令人兴奋的机会。从疾病领域来看,目前的数据显示,业界对双特异性抗体治疗癌症更加期待。双特异性抗体的持续发展将对癌症等疾病的治疗带来持久的影响。
因此,本领域迫切需要开发一种低成本、高效率的构建多特异性抗体的方法。

具体实施方式
本发明人经过广泛而深入的研究,经过大量的筛选,首次开发了一种构建多特异性抗体的方法。实验证明,将抗原结合片段(如抗体可变区、单域抗体或Fc等)和天然抗体CL和CH1片段连接,可以形成稳定的异源二聚体。本申 请的方法所构建的多特异性抗体能够同时结合不同靶点并维持原抗体的结合活性;在靶点为膜表面受体或溶液中的靶点时均有效;同时具有抗多种靶点的生物学活性;可以连接单域抗体或者正常抗体或者Fc片段。因此本发明方法和所提供的平台具有巨大的应用前景。在此基础上完成了本发明。
术语
为了可以更容易地理解本公开,首先定义某些术语。如本申请中所使用的,除非本文另有明确规定,否则以下术语中的每一个应具有下面给出的含义。在整个申请中阐述了其它定义。
如本文所用,术语“构建多特异性抗体的平台”、“本发明构建方法”可互换使用,是指本发明第一方面所述的构建多特异性抗体的方法,其中,以CL和CH1之间通过二硫键作用所形成的异源二聚体为核心结构,并融合靶向不同目标靶点的抗体或其抗原片段。
多特异性抗体
双特异/多特异性抗体(BsAb,MsAb)是由两种或多种不同单克隆抗体的片段组成的人造蛋白,因而可结合到两种或多种不同类型抗原。例如,在癌症免疫治疗中,经过工程化的BsAbs同时结合至细胞毒性细胞及要被杀灭的靶标(如肿瘤细胞)。至少三种类型的双特异抗体己经被提出或测试,包括三官能抗体、化学连接的Fab和双特异T细胞衔接体。为了克服制造上的难点,己经开发了被称作三官能抗体的第一代BsMAb。它由两个重链和两个轻链组成,每个来自不同的抗体。这两个Fab区针对两种抗原。Fc区由两个重链组成并形成第三个结合位点,由此得名。
己设计其他类型的双特异抗体来解决某些问题,例如,半衰期短、免疫原性和细胞因子释放引起的副作用。它们包括:仅由Fab区组成的化学连接的Fab,以及各种类型二价及三价的单链可变区(scFv)(模拟两种抗体可变结构域的融合蛋白)。最新开发的形式是双特异的T细胞衔接体(BiTE)及四官能的抗体。
众所周知,抗体是一类能与抗原特异性结合的免疫球蛋白,由四条多肽链组成,分子量较大的两条链称为重链(heavy chain,H链),而分子量较小的两条链称为轻链(Light chain,L链)。在单抗中,两条H链和两条L链的氨基酸组成完全相同,而双特异性抗体的开发是通过共表达两条不同的H链和两条不同的L链。从10种可能的H2L2重组混合物中获得功能性双特异性抗体是双特异性抗体开发的 最初挑战之一,这通常称为链相关问题。在过去几十年里,研究者们已经开发了许多策略,以解决这一问题。
基于片段的模式(Fragment-based formats)
基于片段的双特异性抗体简单地将多个抗体片段结合在一个分子中,不含Fc区域,避免了链相关问题,优势是产量高、成本低;缺点是半衰期相对较短。此外,基于片段的双特异性抗体可能会出现稳定性和聚合问题。
对称模式(Symmetric formats)
对称模式的双特异性抗体保留了Fc区域,更接近于天然抗体,但在大小和结构上有所不同。这些差异可能对与天然抗体相关的有利特性(如稳定性和溶解度)产生负面影响,从而可能损害这些双特异性抗体的理化和/或药代动力学特性。
不对称模式(Asymmetric formats)
大多数不对称模式的双特异性抗体与天然抗体非常相似,被认为具有最低免疫原性的潜力。不过,解决链相关问题可能涉及到的复杂工程可能会抵消一些不对称模式双特异性抗体的这一优势。
而在本发明中,提供了一类基于异源二聚体形式的多特异性抗体。
如本文所用,术语“本发明的多特异性抗体”、“本发明的多抗”、“本发明抗体”可互换使用,均指使用本发明所提供的构建多特异性抗体的方法所构建出的多特异性抗体。

如本文所用,术语“单域抗体”、“纳米抗体VHH”、“纳米抗体”具有相同的含义,指克隆抗体重链的可变区,构建仅由一个重链可变区组成的纳米抗体(VHH),它是具有完整功能的最小的抗原结合片段。通常先获得天然缺失轻链和重链恒定区1(CH1)的抗体后,再克隆抗体重链的可变区,构建仅由一个重链可变区组成的纳米抗体(VHH)。
如本文所用,术语“可变”表示抗体中可变区的某些部分在序列上有所不同,它形成了各种特定抗体对其特定抗原的结合和特异性。然而,可变性并不均匀地分布在整个抗体可变区中。它集中于轻链和重链可变区中称为互补决定区(CDR)或超变区中的三个片段中。可变区中较保守的部分称为构架区(FR)。天然重链和轻链的可变区中各自包含四个FR区,它们大致上呈-折叠构型,由形成连接环的三个CDR相连,在某些情况下可形成部分折叠结构。每条链中的CDR通过FR区紧密地靠在一起并与另一链的CDR一起形成了抗体的抗原结合部位(参见Kabat等,NIH Publ.No.91-3242,卷I,647-669页(1991))。恒定区不直接参与抗体与抗原的结合,但是它们表现出不同的效应功能,例如参与抗体的依赖于抗体的细胞毒性。
如本文所用,术语“框架区”(FR)指插入CDR间的氨基酸序列,即指在单一物种中不同的免疫球蛋白间相对保守的免疫球蛋白的轻链和重链可变区的那些部分。免疫球蛋白的轻链和重链各具有四个FR,分别称为FR1-L、FR2-L、FR3-L、FR4-L和FR1-H、FR2-H、FR3-H、FR4-H。相应地,轻链可变结构域可因此称作(FR1-L)-(CDR1-L)-(FR2-L)-(CDR2-L)-(FR3-L)-(CDR3-L)-(FR4-L)且重链可变结构域可因此表示为(FR1-H)-(CDR1-H)-(FR2-H)-(CDR2-H)-(FR3-H)-(CDR3-H)-(FR4-H)。优选地,本发明的FR是人抗体FR或其衍生物,所述人抗体FR的衍生物与天然存在的人抗体FR基本相同,即序列同一性达到85%、90%、95%、96%、97%、98%或99%。
获知CDR的氨基酸序列,本领域的技术人员可轻易确定框架区FR1-L、FR2-L、FR3-L、FR4-L和/或FR1-H、FR2-H、FR3-H、FR4-H。
如本文所用,术语″人框架区″是与天然存在的人抗体的框架区基本相同的(约85%或更多,具体地90%、95%、97%、99%或100%)框架区。
如本文所用,术语“亲和力”理论上通过完整抗体和抗原间的平衡缔合来 定义。本发明双抗的亲和力可以通过KD值(解离常数)(或其它测定方式)进行评估或测定,例如生物膜层干涉技术(Bio-layer interferometry BLI),使用FortebioRed96仪器测量确定。
如本文所用,术语“接头”是指插入本发明抗体中为各结构域或区域提供足够的可动性的一个或多个氨基酸残基。
如本领域技术人员所知,免疫偶联物及融合表达产物包括:药物、毒素、细胞因子(cytokine)、放射性核素、酶和其他诊断或治疗分子与本发明的抗体或其片段结合而形成的偶联物。本发明还包括与所述的多特异性抗体或其片段结合的细胞表面标记物或抗原。
在本发明中,术语“本发明抗体”、“本发明蛋白”、或“本发明多肽”可互换使用,均指本发明所提供的多特异性抗体,其可含有或不含起始甲硫氨酸。
本发明还提供了具有本发明抗体的其他蛋白质或融合表达产物。具体地,本发明包括具有含可变区的重链的任何蛋白质或蛋白质偶联物及融合表达产物(即免疫偶联物及融合表达产物),只要该可变区与本发明抗体的重链可变区相同或至少90%同源性,较佳地至少95%同源性。
本发明不仅包括完整的抗体,还包括具有免疫活性的抗体的片段或抗体与其他序列形成的融合蛋白。因此,本发明还包括所述抗体的片段、衍生物和类似物。
如本文所用,术语“片段”、“衍生物”和“类似物”是指基本上保持本发明抗体相同的生物学功能或活性的多肽。本发明的多肽片段、衍生物或类似物可以是(i)有一个或多个保守或非保守性氨基酸残基(优选保守性氨基酸残基)被取代的多肽,而这样的取代的氨基酸残基可以是也可以不是由遗传密码编码的,或(ii)在一个或多个氨基酸残基中具有取代基团的多肽,或(iii)成熟多肽与另一个化合物(比如延长多肽半衰期的化合物,例如聚乙二醇)融合所形成的多肽,或(iv)附加的氨基酸序列融合到此多肽序列而形成的多肽(如前导序列或分泌序列或用来纯化此多肽的序列或蛋白原序列,或与6His标签形成的融合蛋白)。根据本文的教导,这些片段、衍生物和类似物属于本领域熟练技术人员公知的范围。
本发明抗体还包括具有与本发明抗体相同功能的、其中所述第一多肽或第二多肽的变异形式。这些变异形式包括(但并不限于):一个或多个(通常为1-50 个,较佳地1-30个,更佳地1-20个,最佳地1-10个)氨基酸的缺失、插入和/或取代,以及在C末端和/或N末端添加一个或数个(通常为20个以内,较佳地为10个以内,更佳地为5个以内)氨基酸。例如,在本领域中,用性能相近或相似的氨基酸进行取代时,通常不会改变蛋白质的功能。又比如,在C末端和/或N末端添加一个或数个氨基酸通常也不会改变蛋白质的功能。该术语还包括本发明抗体的活性片段和活性衍生物。
该多肽的变异形式包括:同源序列、保守性变异体、等位变异体、天然突变体、诱导突变体、在高或低的严紧度条件下能与本发明抗体的编码DNA杂交的DNA所编码的蛋白、以及利用抗本发明抗体的抗血清获得的多肽或蛋白。
本发明还提供了其他多肽,如包含单域抗体或其片段的融合蛋白。除了几乎全长的多肽外,本发明还包括了本发明单域抗体的片段。通常,该片段具有本发明抗体的至少约50个连续氨基酸,较佳地至少约50个连续氨基酸,更佳地至少约80个连续氨基酸,最佳地至少约100个连续氨基酸。
在本发明中,“本发明抗体的保守性变异体”指与本发明抗体的氨基酸序列相比,有至多10个,较佳地至多8个,更佳地至多5个,最佳地至多3个氨基酸被性质相似或相近的氨基酸所替换而形成多肽。这些保守性变异多肽最好根据表A进行氨基酸替换而产生。

本发明还提供了编码上述抗体或其片段或其融合蛋白的多核苷酸分子。本发明的多核苷酸可以是DNA形式或RNA形式。DNA形式包括cDNA、基因组DNA或人工合成的DNA。DNA可以是单链的或是双链的。DNA可以是编码链或非编码链。
编码本发明的成熟多肽的多核苷酸包括:只编码成熟多肽的编码序列;成熟多肽的编码序列和各种附加编码序列;成熟多肽的编码序列(和任选的附加编码序列)以及非编码序列。
术语“编码多肽的多核苷酸”可以是包括编码此多肽的多核苷酸,也可以是还包括附加编码和/或非编码序列的多核苷酸。
本发明还涉及与上述的序列杂交且两个序列之间具有至少50%,较佳地至少70%,更佳地至少80%相同性的多核苷酸。本发明特别涉及在严格条件下与本发明所述多核苷酸可杂交的多核苷酸。在本发明中,“严格条件”是指:(1)在较低离子强度和较高温度下的杂交和洗脱,如0.2×SSC,0.1%SDS,60℃;或(2)杂交时加有变性剂,如50%(v/v)甲酰胺,0.1%小牛血清/0.1%Ficoll,42℃等;或(3)仅在两条序列之间的相同性至少在90%以上,更好是95%以上时才发生杂交。并且,可杂交的多核苷酸编码的多肽与成熟多肽有相同的生物学功能和活性。
本发明的抗体的核苷酸全长序列或其片段通常可以用PCR扩增法、重组法或人工合成的方法获得。一种可行的方法是用人工合成的方法来合成有关序列,尤其是片段长度较短时。通常,通过先合成多个小片段,然后再进行连接可获得序列很长的片段。此外,还可将重链的编码序列和表达标签(如6His)融合在一起,形成融合蛋白。
一旦获得了有关的序列,就可以用重组法来大批量地获得有关序列。这通常是将其克隆入载体,再转入细胞,然后通过常规方法从增殖后的宿主细胞中分离得到有关序列。本发明所涉及的生物分子(核酸、蛋白等)包括以分离的形式存在的生物分子。
目前,已经可以完全通过化学合成来得到编码本发明蛋白(或其片段,或 其衍生物)的DNA序列。然后可将该DNA序列引入本领域中已知的各种现有的DNA分子(或如载体)和细胞中。此外,还可通过化学合成将突变引入本发明蛋白序列中。
本发明还涉及包含上述的适当DNA序列以及适当启动子或者控制序列的载体。这些载体可以用于转化适当的宿主细胞,以使其能够表达蛋白质。
宿主细胞可以是原核细胞,如细菌细胞;或是低等真核细胞,如酵母细胞;或是高等真核细胞,如哺乳动物细胞。代表性例子有:大肠杆菌,链霉菌属;鼠伤寒沙门氏菌的细菌细胞;真菌细胞如酵母;果蝇S2或Sf9的昆虫细胞;CHO、COS7、293细胞的动物细胞等。
用重组DNA转化宿主细胞可用本领域技术人员熟知的常规技术进行。当宿主为原核生物如大肠杆菌时,能吸收DNA的感受态细胞可在指数生长期后收获,用CaCl 2法处理,所用的步骤在本领域众所周知。另一种方法是使用MgCl 2。如果需要,转化也可用电穿孔的方法进行。当宿主是真核生物,可选用如下的DNA转染方法:磷酸钙共沉淀法,常规机械方法如显微注射、电穿孔、脂质体包装等。
获得的转化子可以用常规方法培养,表达本发明的基因所编码的多肽。根据所用的宿主细胞,培养中所用的培养基可选自各种常规培养基。在适于宿主细胞生长的条件下进行培养。当宿主细胞生长到适当的细胞密度后,用合适的方法(如温度转换或化学诱导)诱导选择的启动子,将细胞再培养一段时间。
在上面的方法中的重组多肽可在细胞内、或在细胞膜上表达、或分泌到细胞外。如果需要,可利用其物理的、化学的和其它特性通过各种分离方法分离和纯化重组的蛋白。这些方法是本领域技术人员所熟知的。这些方法的例子包括但并不限于:常规的复性处理、用蛋白沉淀剂处理(盐析方法)、离心、渗透破菌、超处理、超离心、分子筛层析(凝胶过滤)、吸附层析、离子交换层析、高效液相层析(HPLC)和其它各种液相层析技术及这些方法的结合。
