Description

抗PD-L1/抗4-1BB天然抗体结构样异源二聚体形式双特异抗体及其制备 技术领域
本发明涉及抗PD-L1/抗4-1BB天然抗体结构样异源二聚体形式双特异抗体及其制备。具体而言,本发明提供了一种具有天然IgG特点、并且没有重轻链错配的高度稳定的异源二聚体形式的抗PD-L1/抗4-1BB双特异抗体及其制备方法。
背景技术
程序性死亡配体-1(programmed death ligand 1,PD-L1)是免疫检查点程序性死亡受体-1(programmed death-1,PD-1)的配体,属于B7家族,诱导性表达于多种免疫细胞表面,包括T细胞、B细胞、单核细胞、巨噬细胞、DC细胞以及内皮细胞、表皮细胞等。PD-L1与PD-1结合后,主要参与T细胞活化的负调控,可以调节免疫应答的强弱程度和持续时间。PD-L1除了作为PD-1的配体以外,还能作为CD80的配体,向T细胞传递负调控信号,诱导T细胞免疫耐受(Autoimmun Rev,2013,12(11):1091-1100.Front Immunol,2013,4:481.Nat Rev Cancer,2012,12(4):252-264.Trends Mol Med.2015 Jan;21(1):24-33.Clin Cancer Res.2012 Dec 15;18(24):6580-7.)。在正常情况下,PD-L1和PD-1可以介导和维持机体组织的自身免疫耐受,防止在炎症反应过程中免疫系统过度活化伤害自身组织,对避免自身免疫性疾病的发生具有积极作用;在病理情况下,其参与肿瘤免疫以及多种自身免疫病的发生发展过程。多项研究报道,PD-L1在多种肿瘤组织中高表达,PD-1在肿瘤浸润淋巴细胞中高表达,且PD-L1和PD-1的过表达与肿瘤不良临床预后密切相关(Anticancer Agents Med Chem.2015;15(3):307-13.Hematol Oncol Stem Cell Ther.2014 Mar;7(1):1-17.Trends Mol Med.2015Jan;21(1):24-33.Immunity.2013 Jul 25;39(1):61-73.J Clin Oncol.2015 Jun 10;33(17):1974-82.)。利用PD-L1单克隆抗体阻断PD-L1/PD-1以及CD80/PD-L1的相互作用,在临床前实验研究和临床中都显示出了良好的抗肿瘤效果。目前PD-L1单克隆抗体已经被批准用于治疗非小细胞肺癌和尿路上皮癌等多种肿瘤。
4-1BB(也称作CD137,TNFRSF9等)是肿瘤坏死因子受体超家族(TNFRS)的一种跨膜蛋白质。4-1BB在DC、活化的单核细胞、NK细胞、中性粒细胞、嗜酸性粒细胞和肥大细胞上表达。4-1BBL(CD137L)是TNF超家族的糖蛋白成员,主要在活化的B细 胞、巨噬细胞、树突状细胞、髓系细胞上表达。4-1BB是CD8+和CD4+T细胞、调节性T细胞(Treg)、自然杀伤T细胞(NK(T)细胞)、B细胞和嗜中性粒细胞上的共刺激分子。4-1BB与4-1BBL结合后激活胞内的信号通路。研究表明一些4-1BB激动剂mAb在许多模型中增加共刺激分子表达,并且显著增强细胞溶解性T淋巴细胞应答,引起抗肿瘤功效。
因此,本领域仍然有必要研究一种同时阻断PD-L1和4-1BB信号通路的新型治疗药物。

具体实施方式
定义:
在本文中,术语“抗体”以最广意义使用,指包含抗原结合位点的蛋白质,涵盖各 种结构的天然抗体和人工抗体,包括但不限于完整抗体和抗体的抗原结合片段。
在本文中,术语“双特异性抗体”包含与两种不同生物分子上的表位特异性结合的抗原结合结构域。除非另外说明,否则列出的双特异性抗体名称中双特异性抗体结合的抗原的顺序是任意的。即,在一些实施方案中,术语“抗PD-L1/4-1BB双特异性抗体”和“抗4-1BB/PD-L1双特异性抗体”可以互换使用。在一些实施方案中,双特异性抗体包含两个半抗体,其中每个半抗体包含单个重链可变区和任选地重链恒定区的至少一部分以及单个轻链可变区和任选地轻链恒定区的至少一部分。在一些实施方案中,双特异性抗体包含两个半抗体,其中每个半抗体包含单个重链可变区和单个轻链可变区并且不包含多于一个单个重链可变区且不包含多于一个单个轻链可变区。在一些实施方案中,双特异性抗体包含两个半抗体,其中每个半抗体包含单个重链可变区和单个轻链可变区,并且其中第一半抗体与第一抗原结合且不与第二抗原结合并且第二半抗体与第二抗原结合且不与第一抗原结合。
术语“互补决定区”或“CDR区”或“CDR”(在本文中与超变区“HVR”可以互换使用)指抗体可变结构域中在序列上高变并且形成在结构上确定的环(“超变环”)和/或含有抗原接触残基(“抗原接触点”)的区域。CDR主要负责与抗原表位结合。在本文中,重链的三个CDR称为HCDR1、HCDR2和HCDR3,轻链的三个CDR称为LCDR1、LCDR2和LCDR3。
应该注意,基于不同的指派系统获得的同一抗体的可变区的CDR的边界可能有所差异。即不同指派系统下定义的同一抗体可变区的CDR序列有所不同。因此,在涉及用本发明定义的具体CDR序列限定抗体时,所述抗体的范围还涵盖了这样的抗体,其可变区序列包含所述的具体CDR序列,但是由于应用了不同的方案(例如不同的指派系统规则或组合)而导致其所声称的CDR边界与本发明所定义的具体CDR边界不同。
共价连接是指异源二聚体形式的双特异抗体中,两个Fc链之间,任一个Fc链及与其相连接的抗原结合功能区之间,是通过共价键而连接成为一个分子。其中Fc链包含通过一个或多个通过共价连接(如二硫键链)而连接的第一抗原结合功能区及第二抗原结合功能区;该第一Fc链及第二Fc链分别通过共价连接(如亚胺键或酰胺键)而连接到一个抗原结合功能区上;
抗原结合功能区是指可以与目标分子如抗原发生特异性相互作用的区域,其作用具有高度选择性,识别一种目标分子的序列通常不能识别其他分子序列。代表性的抗原结合功能区包括:抗体的可变区、抗体可变区的结构变构体、受体的结合域、配体结合域 或酶结合域。
一个或多个二硫键链间连接是指第一Fc链及第二Fc链通过一个或多个二硫键链间连接,形成异源二聚体片段。在本发明中,一个或多个二硫键的形成可以是第一Fc链及第二Fc链或者第一Fc链及第二Fc链及其相连接的抗原结合功能区在同一个细胞内合成时形成,也可以是第一Fc链及第二Fc链或者第一Fc链及第二Fc链及其相连接的抗原结合功能区在不同细胞内分别合成,之后通过体外还原氧化的方法形成。
第一Fc链及第二Fc链是指通过共价连接而组成结合片段,共价连接包括二硫键,每条链至少包含免疫球蛋白重链恒定区的一部分;并且该第一Fc链及第二Fc链在氨基酸序列上是不同的,至少包括了一位氨基酸的不同。在此发明中的第一Fc链及第二Fc链,相同链之间存在强烈的相互排斥作用,而不同链之间存在吸引作用,因此当在细胞内共同表达时,第一Fc链及第二Fc链,或者第一Fc链及第二Fc链及其相连接的抗原结合功能区,更倾向于形成异源二聚体。将第一Fc链及第二Fc链,或者第一Fc链及第二Fc链及其相连接的抗原结合功能区分别在两个宿主细胞内表达时,第一Fc链或者第一Fc链及其相连接的抗原结合功能区不倾向于形成同源二聚体,第二Fc链或者第二Fc链及其相连接的抗原结合功能区不倾向于形成同源二聚体。在本发明中,当第一Fc链及第二Fc链,或者第一Fc链及第二Fc链及其相连接的抗原结合功能区分别在两个宿主细胞内表达时,并且在存在还原剂时,同源二聚体的比例低于50%,即单体(一条Fc链或者一条Fc链及其相连接的抗原结合功能区)比例大于50%。
免疫球蛋白是具有四条多肽链的对称结构,其中两条较长、相对分子量较大的相同的重链,含450~550个氨基酸残基,相对分子质量在55000~70000Da之间;两条较短、相对分子量较小的相同的轻链(L链),含约210个氨基酸残基,相对分子质量约24000Da。不同的免疫球蛋白重链和轻链在靠近N端的约110个氨基酸的序列变化很大,称为可变区(variable region,V区),而靠近C端的其余氨基酸序列相对稳定,称为恒定区(constant region,C区)。抗体的每条重链由重链可变区(本文中简称为VH)和重链恒定区(本文中简称为CH)构成,每条轻链由轻链可变区(本文中简称为VL)和轻链恒定区(本文中简称为CL)组成。重链中可变区约占重链长度的1/4,恒定区约占重链长度的3/4。对于已知五种Ig来说,IgG(γ)、IgA(α)、IgD(δ)、IgM(μ)和IgE(ε),其中前三类Ig的H链内有三个恒定区,即CH1、CH2和CH3组成。后两类(IgM和IgE)的H链中有一个VH区和四个恒定区,即CH1至CH4。恒定区既是免疫球蛋白分子的骨架,又是激活免疫反应的部位之一。虽然本发明实施例涉及IgG,但本领域技术 人员知晓,如果希望的话,可以通过已知方法转换本发明的抗体的类别。例如,最初是IgM的本发明抗体可以类别转换为本发明的IgG抗体。此外,类别转换技术可以用来将一个IgG亚类转化成另一亚类,例如从IgGl转换到IgG2。因此,本发明的抗体的效应子功能可以通过同种型切换变为例如IgG1、IgG2、IgG3、IgG4、IgD、IgA、IgE或IgM抗体,用于各种治疗用途。在一个实施例中,本发明的抗体是IgG1抗体,例如IgG1,κ。
本发明中的恒定区一部分至少包括了第一Fc链和第二Fc链相互作用的区域,该区域对于IgG来说,是位于CH3区域的一部分氨基酸,至少包括GLN347、TYR349、THR 350、LEU 351、SER 354、ARG 355、ASP 356、GLU 357、LYS 360、SER 364、THR 366、LEU 368、LYS 370、ASN390、LYS392、THR394、PRO395、VAL 397、ASP399、SER400、PHE405、TYR407、LYS409、LYS439。
第一Fc链及第二Fc链分别通过共价键或连接体连接到一个抗原结合功能区上是指第一Fc链及第二Fc链分别通过共价键或连接体连接到一个抗体的抗原结合片段,或可以识别抗原的单链抗体,或可以识别抗原的其他抗体片段变构体,或可以识别配体的受体,或可以识别受体的配体,其中所述共价键是指是化学键的一种,两个或多个原子共同使用它们的外层电子,在理想情况下达到电子饱和的状态,由此组成比较稳定的化学结构叫做共价键,或者说共价键是原子间通过共用电子对所形成的相互作用。同一种的元素的原子或不同元素的都可以通过共价键结合,对于本发明的第一Fc链及第二Fc链间的共价键,包括但不限于一分子氨基酸的氨基与另一分子氨基酸的羧基脱水反应形成的酰胺键,或者乙二醇或聚乙二醇或其他化合物或其多聚物的醛基与一分子氨基酸的氨基形成酰胺键或亚胺键,其中连接体是可以将两条多肽链通过共价键连接起来的一段氨基酸序列或者一种化合物或者一种化合物的多聚体,其中一段氨基酸序列包括但不限于一段小肽,如GGGGSGGGGSGGGGS,通过酰胺键将第一Fc链或第二Fc链,以及可以识别抗原的单链抗体,或可以识别抗原的其他抗体片段结构变构体连接起来
