  • B cells Malignant transformation of B cells leads to cancer, including lymphomas (such as multiple myeloma and Hodgkin's lymphoma). Autoimmune diseases also involve B cells, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and IgA nephropathy. Cancers and autoimmune diseases involving B cells are considered to be abnormal in B cell function, so a possible strategy to control such diseases is to use antibodies that target pathological B cells.

  • BCMA (CD269 or TNFRSF17) is a member of the TNF receptor superfamily, which is a non-glycosylated inner membrane receptor for the ligands BAFF (B cell activating factor) and APRIL (proliferation inducing ligand). BCMA and its corresponding ligands can regulate humoral immunity, B cell development and homeostasis. BCMA was detected in the spleen, lymph nodes, thymus, adrenal glands and liver, and tonsil memory B cells and germinal center B cells also expressed BCMA. Analysis of various B cell lines showed that the expression level of BCMA increased after maturation. BCMA is highly expressed in B-cell lymphoma and multiple myeloma.

技术领域Technical field
本发明涉及生物医药领域,具体地,本发明涉及抗BCMA抗体、其抗原结合片段、结合BCMA和CD3的双特异抗原结合分子,其制备方法,及其医药用途。The present invention relates to the field of biomedicine. Specifically, the present invention relates to an anti-BCMA antibody, its antigen-binding fragment, a bispecific antigen-binding molecule that binds BCMA and CD3, its preparation method, and its medical use.
背景技术Background technique
B细胞是淋巴细胞,其在体液免疫和特异性识别抗原的抗体的产生中发挥重要的作用。B细胞的三种亚类是幼稚B细胞、记忆B细胞和浆细胞。B cells are lymphocytes, which play an important role in humoral immunity and the production of antibodies that specifically recognize antigens. The three subtypes of B cells are naive B cells, memory B cells, and plasma cells.
VDJ重组的过程,DNA发生重组以产生抗体可变结构域的组合阵列,通过不同谱系的B细胞编码的可变结构域进一步改变,导致多达10 9种独特B细胞谱系,产生具有特异性的抗体。 In the process of VDJ recombination, DNA is recombined to produce a combinatorial array of antibody variable domains. The variable domains encoded by B cells of different lineages are further changed, resulting in up to 109 unique B cell lineages, resulting in specific Antibody.
多种疾病涉及B细胞。B细胞的恶性转化导致癌症,包括淋巴瘤(如多发性骨髓瘤和霍奇金氏淋巴瘤)。自身免疫性疾病也会涉及到B细胞,包括系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)和IgA肾病。涉及B细胞的癌症和自家免疫性疾病被认为B细胞功能异常,因此控制这类疾病的可能策略是使用靶向病理性B细胞的抗体。Many diseases involve B cells. Malignant transformation of B cells leads to cancer, including lymphomas (such as multiple myeloma and Hodgkin's lymphoma). Autoimmune diseases also involve B cells, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and IgA nephropathy. Cancers and autoimmune diseases involving B cells are considered to be abnormal in B cell function, so a possible strategy to control such diseases is to use antibodies that target pathological B cells.
BCMA(CD269或TNFRSF17)是TNF受体超家族的成员,其是对配体BAFF(B细胞激活因子)和APRIL(增殖诱导配体)的非糖基化的内在膜受体。BCMA和它的相应配体可以调节体液免疫、B细胞发育和稳态。在脾脏、淋巴结、胸腺、肾上腺和肝脏检测到BCMA,扁桃体记忆B细胞和生发中心B细胞也表达BCMA。多种B细胞系的分析表明,成熟后BCMA的表达水平增加。BCMA在B细胞淋巴瘤和多发性骨髓瘤中高度表达。BCMA (CD269 or TNFRSF17) is a member of the TNF receptor superfamily, which is a non-glycosylated inner membrane receptor for the ligands BAFF (B cell activating factor) and APRIL (proliferation inducing ligand). BCMA and its corresponding ligands can regulate humoral immunity, B cell development and homeostasis. BCMA was detected in the spleen, lymph nodes, thymus, adrenal glands and liver, and tonsil memory B cells and germinal center B cells also expressed BCMA. Analysis of various B cell lines showed that the expression level of BCMA increased after maturation. BCMA is highly expressed in B-cell lymphoma and multiple myeloma.
当前针对BCMA的疗法主要分为三大类:嵌合抗原受体T细胞疗法(CAR-T)、双特异性抗体(BsAb)以及抗体偶联药物(ADC)。其中GSK的ADC药物Blenrep已于2020年8月获美国FDA批准,成为首个获批用于抗BCMA的免疫相关药,但其治疗存在视力损伤的不良反应,以及后期失效等缺点,使得双特异性抗体策略成为该靶点的另一个热门研发方向。其中,安进的双抗AMG-420优先进入临床后期。该抗体采用BiTE设计,穿透性好,但分子量小且半衰期短,降低了患者的依从性。The current therapies for BCMA are mainly divided into three categories: chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy (CAR-T), bispecific antibodies (BsAb) and antibody-conjugated drugs (ADC). Among them, GSK's ADC drug Blenrep was approved by the U.S. FDA in August 2020, becoming the first immune-related drug approved for anti-BCMA, but its treatment has disadvantages such as visual impairment and late failure, making it bispecific Sexual antibody strategy has become another popular research and development direction for this target. Among them, Amgen's double antibody AMG-420 has priority to enter the late clinical stage. The antibody is designed with BiTE, which has good penetration, but has a small molecular weight and short half-life, which reduces patient compliance.

针对抗体氨基酸的编号,存在多种不同的编号规则。可以进行编号规则的比对,以便确定等同的残基位置。Kabat编号规则是基于相同高变区的位置而开发的。Chothia编号规则(Al-Lazikani,1997)与Kabat的方案相同,但对第一个VH CDR进行了校正。IMGT(Lefranc,2003)和AHo(Honegger和Plückthun,2001)定义了抗体和T细胞受体(TCR)的可变结构域,因此可以比较二者的等同残基位置。There are many different numbering rules for the numbering of antibody amino acids.

The Chothia numbering scheme (Al-Lazikani, 1997) is the same as Kabat's scheme, but the first VH CDR is corrected. IMGT (Lefranc, 2003) and AHo (Honegger and Plückthun, 2001) define the variable domains of antibodies and T cell receptors (TCR), so the equivalent residue positions of the two can be compared.
Eu编号规则的建立基于Gerald M.Edelman等人所纯化得到人IgG1(命名为Eu),Gerald M.Edelman等人测定了IgG1的氨基酸序列并对其进行遍号。现有技术中,众多工具可用于确定或比对抗体的氨基酸编号,例如但不限于ANARCI、abYsis。The Eu numbering rule was established based on the purified human IgG1 (named Eu) by Gerald M. Edelman et al. Gerald M. Edelman et al. determined the amino acid sequence of IgG1 and numbered it. In the prior art, many tools can be used to determine or compare the amino acid numbers of antibodies, such as but not limited to ANARCI and abYsis.
在本申请的上下文中,重链恒定区中氨基酸位点遵守EU编号规则,位点349或354是指在EU编号规则下的氨基酸位点。技术人员能够显而易见地确定,在等同位点上的 半胱氨酸残基也预期能够实现相同的功能(即,在第一多肽和第三多肽之间促进二硫键的形成)。例如,确定抗体氨基酸位点的编号规则还包括:Kabat、Chothia、IMGT,技术人员可以确定不同编号规则中对应的等同位点。再比如,技术人员通过氨基酸序列的比对分析,可以确定这样的等同位点。In the context of this application, the amino acid positions in the constant region of the heavy chain follow the EU numbering rules, and the positions 349 or 354 refer to the amino acid positions under the EU numbering rules. The skilled person can clearly determine that the cysteine residue at the equivalent position is also expected to perform the same function (ie, promote the formation of a disulfide bond between the first polypeptide and the third polypeptide). For example, the numbering rules for determining the amino acid positions of antibodies also include: Kabat, Chothia, IMGT, and the technician can determine the corresponding equivalent positions in different numbering rules.

本发明所述的术语“抗体”指免疫球蛋白,是由两条重链和两条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中第每类Ig都可以有κ链或λ链。The term "antibody" in the present invention refers to an immunoglobulin, which is a tetrapeptide chain structure composed of two heavy chains and two light chains connected by interchain disulfide bonds. The amino acid composition and sequence of the constant region of the immunoglobulin heavy chain are different, so their antigenicity is also different. According to this, immunoglobulins can be divided into five categories, or isotypes of immunoglobulins, namely IgM, IgD, IgG, IgA, and IgE. The corresponding heavy chains are μ chain, δ chain, and γ chain. , Α chain and ε chain. The same type of Ig can be divided into different subclasses according to the amino acid composition of the hinge region and the number and position of heavy chain disulfide bonds. For example, IgG can be divided into IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4. The light chain is divided into a kappa chain or a lambda chain by the difference of the constant region. Each of the five types of Ig can have a kappa chain or a lambda chain.

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(V区);靠近C端的其余氨基酸序列相对稳定,为恒定区(C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。本发明所述的抗体或抗原结合片段的VL区和VH区的CDR氨基酸残基在数量和位置符合已知的Kabat编号规则和Kabat或ABM定义规则。The sequence of about 110 amino acids near the N-terminus of the antibody heavy and light chains varies greatly and is the variable region (V region); the remaining amino acid sequences near the C-terminus are relatively stable and are the constant region (C region). The variable region includes 3 hypervariable regions (HVR) and 4 framework regions (FR) with relatively conserved sequences. Three hypervariable regions determine the specificity of the antibody, also known as complementarity determining regions (CDR). Each light chain variable region (VL) and heavy chain variable region (VH) is composed of 3 CDR regions and 4 FR regions. The sequence from the amino terminus to the carboxy terminus is FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4. The 3 CDR regions of the light chain refer to LCDR1, LCDR2, and LCDR3; the 3 CDR regions of the heavy chain refer to HCDR1, HCDR2, and HCDR3.

术语“鼠源抗体”在本发明中为根据本领域知识和技能制备的对人BCMA或其表位的单克隆抗体。制备时用BCMA抗原或其片段注射试验对象,然后分离表达具有所需序列或功能特性的抗体的杂交瘤。在本发明一个优选的实施方案中,所述的鼠源BCMA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,和/或进一步包含鼠源IgG1、IgG2、IgG3或IgG4或其变体的重链恒定区。The term "murine antibody" in the present invention refers to a monoclonal antibody to human BCMA or its epitope prepared according to the knowledge and skills in the art. During preparation, the test subject is injected with BCMA antigen or its fragments, and then hybridomas expressing antibodies with desired sequences or functional properties are isolated. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the murine BCMA antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof may further comprise the light chain constant region of murine kappa, lambda chains or variants thereof, and/or further comprise murine IgG1 , IgG2, IgG3 or IgG4 or variants of the heavy chain constant region.
术语“人抗体”包括具有人种系免疫球蛋白序列的可变和恒定区的抗体。本发明的人抗体可包括不由人种系免疫球蛋白序列编码的氨基酸残基(如通过体外随机或位点特异性诱变或通过体内体细胞突变所引入的突变)。然而,术语“人抗体”不包括这样的抗体,即其中已将衍生自另一种哺乳动物物种(诸如小鼠)种系的CDR序列移植到人骨架序列上(即“人源化抗体”)。The term "human antibody" includes antibodies having variable and constant regions of human germline immunoglobulin sequences. The human antibodies of the present invention may include amino acid residues that are not encoded by human germline immunoglobulin sequences (such as mutations introduced by random or site-specific mutagenesis in vitro or by somatic mutation in vivo). However, the term "human antibody" does not include antibodies in which CDR sequences derived from the germline of another mammalian species (such as a mouse) have been grafted onto human framework sequences (ie, "humanized antibodies") .
术语“人源化抗体(humanized antibody)”,也称为CDR移植抗体(CDR-grafted antibody),是指将非人物种的CDR序列移植到人的抗体可变区框架中产生的抗体。人源化抗体可以克服嵌合抗体由于携带大量异源蛋白成分,从而诱导的免疫应答反应的缺点。为避免在免疫原性下降的同时引起活性的下降,可对所述的人抗体可变区可进行反向突变,以保持活性。The term "humanized antibody", also known as CDR-grafted antibody, refers to an antibody produced by grafting CDR sequences of non-human species into the framework of a human antibody variable region. Humanized antibodies can overcome the shortcomings of immune responses induced by chimeric antibodies that carry a large amount of heterologous protein components. In order to avoid the decrease of immunogenicity and the decrease of activity at the same time, the variable region of the human antibody can be reversely mutated to maintain activity.
术语“嵌合抗体(chimeric antibody)”,是将第一物种抗体的可变区与第二物种抗体的恒定区融合而成的抗体,可以减轻异源抗体诱发的免疫应答反应。作为一个示例,建立嵌合抗体,要选建立分泌鼠源性特异性单抗的杂交瘤,然后从小鼠杂交瘤细胞中克隆可变区基因,再要据需要克隆人抗体的恒定区基因,将小鼠可变区基因与人恒定区基因连接成嵌合基因后插入人载体中,最后在真核工业系统或原核工业系统中表达嵌合抗体分子。人抗体的恒定区可选自人源IgG1、IgG2、IgG3或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后增强ADCC(antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity,抗体依赖的细胞介导的细胞毒作用)毒性的IgG1重链恒定区。The term "chimeric antibody" refers to an antibody formed by fusing the variable region of an antibody of the first species with the constant region of an antibody of the second species, which can reduce the immune response induced by the heterologous antibody. As an example, to establish a chimeric antibody, it is necessary to select a hybridoma that secretes a murine-specific monoclonal antibody, and then clone the variable region gene from the mouse hybridoma cell, and then clone the constant region gene of the human antibody as needed. The mouse variable region gene and the human constant region gene are connected to form a chimeric gene and then inserted into a human vector, and finally the chimeric antibody molecule is expressed in a eukaryotic industrial system or a prokaryotic industrial system. The constant region of a human antibody can be selected from the heavy chain constant region of human IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 or IgG4 or variants thereof, preferably comprising human IgG1, IgG2 or IgG4 heavy chain constant region, or using amino acid mutations to enhance ADCC (antibody -dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity, antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity) toxic IgG1 heavy chain constant region.
术语“抗原结合片段”是指抗体的抗原结合片段及抗体类似物,其通常包括至少部分母体抗体(parental antibody)的抗原结合区或可变区(例如一个或多个CDR)。抗体片段保留母体抗体的至少某些结合特异性。通常,当基于摩尔来表示活性时,抗体片段 保留至少10%的母体结合活性。优选地,抗体片段保留至少20%、50%、70%、80%、90%、95%或100%或更多的母体抗体对靶标的结合亲和力。抗原结合片段实例包括但不限于:Fab、Fab’、F(ab’)2、Fv片段、线性抗体(linear antibody)、单链抗体、纳米抗体、结构域抗体和多特异性抗体。工程改造的抗体变体综述于Holliger和Hudson,2005,Nat.Biotechnol.23:1126-1136中。The term "antigen-binding fragment" refers to antigen-binding fragments and antibody analogs of antibodies, which usually include at least part of the antigen-binding region or variable region (for example, one or more CDRs) of a parental antibody. Antibody fragments retain at least some of the binding specificity of the parent antibody. Generally, when the activity is expressed on a mole basis, the antibody fragment retains at least 10% of the parental binding activity. Preferably, the antibody fragment retains at least 20%, 50%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95% or 100% or more of the binding affinity of the parent antibody to the target. Examples of antigen-binding fragments include, but are not limited to: Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, Fv fragments, linear antibodies, single-chain antibodies, nanobodies, domain antibodies, and multispecific antibodies. Engineered antibody variants are reviewed in Holliger and Hudson, 2005, Nat. Biotechnol. 23:1126-1136.
