  • Multiple myeloma is the second most common blood cancer in the world. It is characterized by the uncontrolled proliferation of plasma cells in the bone marrow. Cancerous plasma cells proliferate and spread rapidly, which in turn leads to the massive production of monoclonal immunoglobulins. , causing immunosuppression, osteolysis, and end-organ damage. Worldwide, there are more than 138,500 newly diagnosed patients with MM. In the past few decades, due to the emergence of new treatments such as proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulators and CD38 antibodies, the clinical treatment effect of MM patients has been greatly improved, and the life expectancy of patients has increased from 3 to 4 years to 7 years. to 8 years.

Abstract

本披露涉及特异性结合CD38、BCMA和CD3的抗原结合分子及其医药用途。

Description

特异性结合CD38、BCMA和CD3的抗原结合分子及其医药用途 技术领域
本披露属于生物技术领域,更具体地,本披露涉及抗原结合分子及其应用。
背景技术
这里的陈述仅提供与本披露有关的背景信息,而不必然地构成现有技术。
多发性骨髓瘤(Multiple myeloma,MM)是全球第二大常见血液癌症,其以骨髓中浆细胞的失控增殖为主要特征,癌变的浆细胞迅速增殖扩散,进而导致单克隆免疫球蛋白的大量产生,进而引起免疫抑制、骨质溶解和末端器官损伤。在全球范围内,有超过13.85万名新确诊MM患者。过去的数十年,由于蛋白酶体抑制剂、免疫调节剂和CD38抗体等新的治疗手段出现,使MM患者的临床治疗效果有很大改善,将患者的预期寿命从3至4年提高到7至8年。但大多数患者仍会因耐药而复发,即便MRD(minimal residual disease)阴性的病人仍会复发,因此,临床迫切需要更加有效的新治疗手段。在靶向MM细胞的同时重塑免疫细胞的抗肿瘤活性的免疫疗法将是非常优异的治疗MM的疗法。
CD38是一类二型跨膜糖蛋白,既能通过与配体CD31相互作用,传导下游信号调节淋巴细胞的激活、B细胞的分化等过程,又能通过外切酶的作用发挥功能。CD38在浆细胞以及多发性骨髓瘤细胞中广泛表达,并且CD38的单抗药物达雷妥尤单抗(Daratumumab)以及Isatuximab在临床上都有较好的治疗响应率以及响应深度,充分证实CD38是针对多发性骨髓瘤的较好的靶点。
BCMA(Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 17)是一类无信号肽的三型跨膜蛋白,属于TNFR蛋白超家族成员之一。BCMA通过与配体APRIL和BAFF结合,激活下游ERK1/2、NFkB等信号通路,促进B细胞的生长与增殖。在正常的组织细胞中,BCMA主要在B细胞的分化后期,即较成熟的B细胞(Plasmablast、PC)中表达,在发育早期的B细胞以及其他正常组织中无表达。BCMA高选择性地在多发性骨髓瘤细胞表面高表达,且表达量远高于正常B细胞中的表达量。并且,BCMA的近膜端会被γ-secretase剪切,形成可溶性的BCMA(sBCMA),血浆中的sBCMA在多发性骨髓瘤以及复发型骨髓瘤的病人中明显远高于健康人体,已被作为多发性骨髓瘤疾病进展的重要标记物。
靶向CD3&TAA的双特异性抗体是一种新型的免疫疗法,可以同时结合T细胞和肿瘤细胞,模拟MHC和TCR的相互作用,使T细胞形成裂解性synapse后,释放穿孔素和颗粒酶特异性杀伤肿瘤细胞。活化后的T细胞可以释放细胞因子,启动其他免疫细胞并扩大针对肿瘤的免疫反应,最终导致T细胞的增殖和杀伤肿瘤细胞的级联反应。

术语“氨基酸”是指天然存在的和合成的氨基酸,以及以与天然存在的氨基酸类似的方式起作用的氨基酸类似物和氨基酸模拟物。天然存在的氨基酸是由遗传密码编码的那些氨基酸,以及后来修饰的那些氨基酸,例如羟脯氨酸、γ-羧基谷氨酸和O-磷酸丝氨酸。氨基酸类似物是指与天然存在的氨基酸具有相同基本化学结构(即与氢、羧基、氨基和R基团结合的α碳)的化合物,例如高丝氨酸、正亮氨酸、甲硫氨酸亚砜、甲硫氨酸甲基锍。此类类似物具有修饰的R基团(例如,正亮氨酸)或修饰的肽骨架,但保留与天然存在的氨基酸相同的基本化学结构。氨基酸模拟物是指具有与氨基酸的一般化学结构不同的结构,但是以与天然存在的氨基酸类似的方式起作用的化学化合物。
术语“氨基酸突变”包括氨基酸取代,缺失,插入和修饰。可以进行取代、 缺失、插入和修饰的任意组合来实现最终构建体,只要最终构建体拥有期望的特性,例如降低或对Fc受体的结合。氨基酸序列缺失和插入包括在多肽链的氨基端和/或羧基端的缺失和插入。具体的氨基酸突变可以是氨基酸取代。在一个实施方式中,氨基酸突变是非保守性的氨基酸取代,即将一个氨基酸用具有不同结构和/或化学特性的另一种氨基酸替换。氨基酸取代包括由非天然存在的氨基酸或由20种天然氨基酸的衍生物(例如4-羟脯氨酸、3-甲基组氨酸、鸟氨酸、高丝氨酸、5-羟赖氨酸)替换。可以使用本领域中公知的遗传或化学方法生成氨基酸突变。遗传方法可以包括定点诱变、PCR,基因合成等。预计基因工程以外的改变氨基酸侧链基团的方法,如化学修饰也可能是可用的。本文中可使用各种名称来指示同一氨基酸突变。本文中,可采用位置+氨基酸残基的方式表示特定位点的氨基酸残基,例如366W,则表示在366位点上的氨基酸残基为W。T366W则表示第366位点上的氨基酸残基由原来的T突变为了W。

非保守取代会需要用这些类别之一的成员替换另一个类别的成员。
一类取代变体涉及取代亲本抗体(例如人源化或人抗体)的一个或多个CDR残基。一般地,经选择用于进一步研究的所得变体相对于亲本抗体会具有某些生物学特性(例如升高的亲和力,降低的免疫原性)的改变(例如改善),和/或会基本上保留亲本抗体的某些生物学特性。一种例示性的取代变体是亲和力成熟的抗体,可以例如使用基于噬菌体展示的亲和力成熟技术(如本文所述的那些技术),便利地产生所述抗体。简言之,将一个或多个CDR残基突变,并将变体抗体在噬菌体上展示,并对其筛选特定的生物学活性(例如结合亲和力)。可以对CDR做出改变(例如取代),例如以改善抗体亲和力。可以对CDR“热点”,即在体细胞成熟过程期间以高频率经历突变的密码子所编码的残基,和/或接触抗原的残基做出此类改变,同时对所得的变体VH或VL测试结合亲和力。在亲和力成熟的一些实施方案中,通过多种方法(例如易错PCR、链改组、或寡核苷酸指导的诱变)的任一种,将多样性引入所选择用于成熟的可变基因中。然后,创建次级文库。然后,筛选文库以鉴定具有期望的亲和力的任何抗体变体。另一种引入多样性的方法涉及CDR定向的方法,其中将几个CDR残基(例如一次4-6个残基)随机化。可以例如使用丙氨酸扫描诱变或建模来特异性鉴定涉及抗原结合的CDR残基。特别地,经常靶向HCDR3和LCDR3。
在某些实施方案中,取代、插入或缺失可以在一个或多个CDR内发生,只要此类变化不实质性降低抗体结合抗原的能力。例如,可以对CDR做出保守变化(例如保守取代,如本文中提供的),其不实质性降低结合亲和力。此类变化可以例如在CDR中的抗原接触残基外部。在上文提供的变体VH和VL序列的某些实施方案中,每个CDR是未改变的,或者含有不超过1、2或3处氨基酸取代。
一种可用于鉴定抗体中可以作为诱变靶位的残基或区域的方法称作“丙氨酸扫描诱变”。在这种方法中,鉴定一个残基或靶残基组(例如带电荷的残基,诸如Arg、Asp、His、Lys和Glu),并且用中性或带负电荷的氨基酸(例如,Ala或聚丙氨酸)替换以确定该抗体与抗原的相互作用是否受影响。可以在对初始取代 显示功能敏感性的氨基酸位置引入进一步的取代。此外,可通过研究抗原-抗体复合物的晶体结构来鉴定抗体与抗原间的接触点。这些接触残基及邻近残基可以作为取代候选物被打靶或消除。可以筛选变体以确定它们是否含有期望的特性。
氨基酸序列插入包括长度范围为1个残基至含有100或更多个残基的多肽的氨基和/或羧基端融合,和单个或多个氨基酸残基的序列内插入。末端插入的例子包括具有N端甲硫氨酰基残基的抗体。抗体分子的其它插入变体包括抗体的N或C端与酶或延长抗体的血清半衰期的多肽的融合物。
Fc区的改造
在一个方面,本披露的抗原结合分子的Fc区包含一个或多个氨基酸取代,所述一个或多个氨基酸取代减少其与Fc受体的结合,例如其与Fcγ受体的结合,并且降低或消除效应子功能。天然IgG Fc区,具体地是IgG 1Fc区或IgG 4Fc区,可能导致本披露的抗原结合分子靶向表达Fc受体的细胞,而不是表达抗原的细胞。本披露改造的Fc区表现出降低的对Fc受体的结合亲和力和/或降低的效应子功能。在一些实施方案中,改造的Fc区与天然Fc区相比,对Fc受体的结合亲和力下降50%、80%、90%或95%以上。在一些实施方案中,所述的Fc受体是Fcγ受体。在一些实施方案中,所述Fc受体是人Fcγ受体,例如FcγRI、FcγRIIa、FcγRIIB、FcγRIIIa。在一些实施方案中,改造的Fc区与天然Fc区相比,对补体,如C1q的结合亲和力也降低。在一些实施方案中,改造的Fc区与天然Fc区相比,对新生儿Fc受体(FcRn)的结合亲和力不降低。在一些实施例中,改造的Fc区具有降低的效应子功能,所述降低的效应子功能可以包括但不限于以下中的一个或多个:降低的补体依赖性细胞毒性(CDC)、降低的抗体依赖性细胞介导的细胞毒性(ADCC)、降低的抗体依赖性细胞吞噬(ADCP)、减少的细胞因子分泌、减少的免疫复合物介导的抗原呈递细胞的抗原摄取、减少的与NK细胞的结合、减少的与巨噬细胞的结合、减少的与单核细胞的结合、减少的与多形核细胞的结合、减少的直接信号传导诱导性细胞凋亡、降低的树突细胞成熟或减少的T细胞引发。对于IgG 1Fc区,在238、265、269、270、297、327和329等位置的氨基酸残基取代可降低的效应子功能。在一些实施方案中,所述Fc区是人IgG 1Fc区,并且在234和235位置的氨基酸残基为A,编号依据为EU索引。对于IgG 4Fc区,在228等位置的氨基酸残基取代可降低的效应子功能。
抗原结合分子还可包含二硫键改造,例如第一亚基的354C和第二亚基的349C。基于不同来源,所述Fc区的第356位氨基酸残基可以是E或D,第358位氨基酸残基可以是M或L。在一些实施例方式中,所述Fc区的第356位氨基酸残基可以是E,第358位氨基酸残基是M。在一些实施例方式中,所述Fc区的第356位氨基酸残基可以是D,第358位氨基酸残基是L。
抗原结合分子可包含与Fc区的两个亚基融合的不同抗原结合模块,因此可能 导致不期望的同源二聚化。为了提高产率和纯度,因此在本发明的抗原结合分子的Fc区中引入促进异源二聚化的修饰将是有利的。在一些实施方式中,本披露的Fc区包含根据杵臼(knob-into-hole,KIH)技术的改造,该方法涉及在第一亚基的界面处引入凸起结构(knob)以及在第二亚基的界面处引入孔结构(hole)。使得所述凸起结构可以定位在孔结构中,促进异源二聚体的形成并抑制同源二聚体的产生。凸起结构是通过用较大侧链(例如酪氨酸或色氨酸)取代来自第一亚基的界面的小氨基酸侧链而构建的。而孔结构是通过用较小的氨基酸侧链(例如丙氨酸或苏氨酸)取代大氨基酸侧链而在第二亚基的界面中创建的。凸起结构和孔结构通过改变编码多肽的核酸来制备,可选的氨基酸取代如下表所示:

除了杵臼技术外,用于修饰多特异性抗体的重链的CH3结构域以实现异源二聚化的其他技术也是本领域中已知的,例如WO96/27011、WO98/050431、EP1870459、WO2007/110205、WO 007/147901、WO2009/089004、WO2010/129304、WO2011/90754、WO2011/143545、WO2012/058768、WO2013/157954和WO013/096291。
Fc区的C末端可以是以氨基酸残基PGK结束的完整C末端;也可以是缩短的C末端,例如在所述缩短的C末端中已经去除了一个或两个C末端氨基酸残基。在一个优选的方面中,重链的C末端是以PG结束的缩短的C末端。因此,在一些实施方式中,完整抗体的组合物可以包括去除了所有K447残基和/或G446+K447残基的抗体群体。在一些实施方式中,完整抗体的组合物可以包括没有去除K447 残基和/或G446+K447残基的抗体群体。在一些实施方式中,完整抗体的组合物具有带有和不带有K447残基和/或G446+K447残基的抗体混合物的抗体群体。
重组方法
抗原结合分子可以使用重组方法来产生。对于这些方法,提供编码抗原结合分子的一个或更多个分离的核酸。
在天然抗体、天然抗体片段或具有同源二聚体重链的双特异性抗原结合分子的情况下,需要两个核酸,一个用于轻链或其片段,一个用于重链或其片段。此类核酸编码包含抗体VL的氨基酸序列和/或包含抗体VH的氨基酸序列(例如抗体的轻链和/或重链)。这些核酸可以在相同的表达载体上或在不同的表达载体上。
在具有异二聚体重链的双特异性抗原结合分子的情况下,需要四个核酸,一个用于第一轻链,一个用于包含第一异源单体Fc区多肽的第一重链,一个用于第二轻链,并且一个用于包含第二异源单体Fc区多肽的第二重链。这四个核酸可包含在一个或更多个核酸分子或表达载体中,通常这些核酸位于两个或三个表达载体上,即一个载体可包含这些核酸中的多于一个。
在一个实施方案中,本披露提供了编码如前所述的抗原结合分子的分离的核酸。此类核酸可以给自独立的编码前述的任一多肽链。在另一方面中,本披露提供了包含此类核酸的一种或多种载体(例如表达载体)。在另一方面中,本披露提供了包含此类核酸的宿主细胞。在一个实施方案中,提供制备抗原结合分子的方法,其中所述方法包括,在适合抗原结合分子表达的条件下,培养包含编码所述抗原结合分子的核酸的宿主细胞,如上文所提供的,和任选地从宿主细胞(或宿主细胞培养基)回收所述抗原结合分子。
为了重组产生抗原结合分子,将编码蛋白的核酸分离并插入一个或更多个载体中,用于在宿主细胞中进一步克隆和/或表达。此类核酸可以使用常规程序容易地分离和测序(例如通过使用能够与编码抗原结合分子重链和轻链的基因特异性结合的寡核苷酸探针),或者通过重组方法产生或通过化学合成获得。
用于克隆或表达编码抗原结合分子的载体的适当宿主细胞包括本文描述的原核或真核细胞。例如,抗原结合分子可在细菌中产生,特别是当抗原结合分子不需要糖基化和Fc效应子功能时。在表达后,抗原结合分子可以在可溶级分中从细菌细胞糊状物分离,并且可进一步纯化。
除了原核生物以外,真核微生物诸如丝状真菌或酵母也是用于编码抗原结合分子的载体的合适的克隆或表达宿主,包括真菌和酵母菌株,其糖基化途径已经“人源化”,导致产生具有部分或完全人糖基化模式的抗原结合分子。适于表达(糖基化)抗原结合分子的合适的宿主细胞也可源自多细胞生物体(无脊椎动物和脊椎动物);无脊椎动物细胞的例子包括植物和昆虫细胞。已经鉴定了许多杆状病毒株,其可与昆虫细胞联合使用,特别是用于草地贪夜蛾(Spodoptera  frugiperda)细胞的转染;还可利用植物细胞培养物作为宿主,例如US5959177、US6040498、US6420548、US7125978和US6417429;也可将脊椎动物细胞用作宿主,例如适应于在悬浮液中生长的哺乳动物细胞系。适宜的哺乳动物宿主细胞系的其它例子是经SV40转化的猴肾CVl系(COS-7);人胚肾系(293或293T细胞);幼仓鼠肾细胞(BHK);小鼠塞托利(sertoli)细胞(TM4细胞);猴肾细胞(CV1);非洲绿猴肾细胞(VERO-76);人宫颈癌细胞(HELA);犬肾细胞(MDCK);水牛鼠(buffalo rat)肝细胞(BRL3A);人肺细胞(W138);人肝细胞(Hep G2);小鼠乳房肿瘤(MMT 060562);TRI细胞;MRC 5细胞;和FS4细胞。其它适宜的哺乳动物宿主细胞系包括中国仓鼠卵巢(CHO)细胞,包括DHFR-CHO细胞;以及骨髓瘤细胞系,如Y0、NS0和Sp2/0。关于适合产生抗原结合分子的某些哺乳动物宿主细胞系的综述参见例如Yazaki,P.和Wu,A.M.,Methods in Molecular Biology,Vol.248,Lo,B.K.C.(编),Humana Press,Totowa,NJ(2004),第255-268页。

注:为方便纯化,Format24的Knob-24链的C端含有6His。
结果显示,本披露的抗体有较好的CD38/BCMA结合力,并且能结合CD3d&CD3e。
测试例3.FACS测定抗体对MM细胞表面抗原的亲和力
为测试本披露的抗体与MM细胞表面hCD38和hBCMA的结合能力,本测试例用流式细胞术方法检测了CD38/BCMA-CD3三特异性抗体与CD38和BCMA共表达的MM肿瘤细胞RPMI-8226的结合能力。具体如下:上述细胞培养于含10%FBS的1640的培养基中,放置于37℃,5%CO 2培养箱中,培养2天,按每孔细胞数1×10 5个将细胞加至细胞板中,300g离心分钟,1%BSA洗一次。用Mix-n-Stain CF 647Antibody Labeling Kits(MX647S100-1KT#,Sigma)直标抗体,并将荧光标记后的抗体梯度稀释,按每孔100μL加入细胞板中,4℃孵育1小时,1%BSA洗板三次,每孔加入100μL PBS读板。结果如图2所示,本披露的抗体能非常好的结合到BCMA和CD38共表达的肿瘤细胞表面,其效果优于阳性对照。
测试例4.抗体的体外细胞毒活性
为测试本披露的抗体作为T细胞衔接分子对肿瘤细胞的杀伤活性。用过表达人BCMA的稳转细胞株K562/hBCMA,过表达人CD38的稳转细胞株CHO K1/hCD38和CD38和BCMA共表达的MM肿瘤细胞RPMI-8226作为靶细胞来检测本披露的双特异性抗体的靶点特异性细胞毒活性,并用不表达CD38和BCMA的CHOK1作为靶细胞来检测本披露的双特异性抗体的非特异性细胞毒活性。新鲜 PBMC(购自轩峰生物公司)300g离心10分钟,用含有200U IL2的1640+10%FBS(A液)重悬,置于T75的培养瓶培养过夜(密度为2×10 6/mL);收集离心后分别用IMDM+10%FBS、DMEM/F-12 1:1+10%FBS和1640+10%FBS的培养基重悬、计数,调整细胞数为1.5×10 6个/mL,每孔加入50μL。收集靶细胞,1000rpm离心3min,重悬、计数,调整细胞数为3×10 5细胞/mL,每孔加入25μL,E:T Ratio为10:1。抗体用细胞分别对应的培养基稀释,起始浓度为400nM(4×终浓度),10倍稀释9个梯度,每孔加入25μL。然后将细胞放在37℃,5%CO 2的培养箱培养48h。萤光信号检测:取出培养板,1000rpm离心3min,吸取50μL上清于新的96孔板,冻存于-20℃冰箱,在原来含有细胞的板子中,按1:1的比例加入50μL one-Glo,室温孵育5min,检测发光的数值(将未加抗体组的细胞的发光值定义为0杀伤),计算不同抗体在不同浓度下的杀伤百分比。

结果见表13-1至13-3和图3,本披露的抗体的细胞毒活性是CD38和BCMA靶点特异性的,其效果优于阳性对照;同时,图3显示在没有CD38以及BCMA表达的CHOK1细胞系上,本披露的抗体表现出更弱的细胞毒活性,具有更好的安全性。
测试例5.可溶性BCMA/CD38/APRIL对本披露抗体的体外细胞毒活性的影响
多发性骨髓瘤病人血液中存在的高浓度可溶性BCMA(平均30ng/mL)会干扰BCMA-CD3双特异性抗体特异性结合到膜表面BCMA,其次,APRIL在MM病人血清中的含量也是健康人中的5.9倍,可溶性CD38在MM病人中也有一定比例的增高。为测试本披露的抗体体外肿瘤细胞杀伤的活性是否受可溶性BCMA/CD38/APRIL的影响,采用共表达CD38和BCMA的细胞系RPMI-8226作为靶细胞,在细胞毒活性测试时,分别添加或者一起添加了可溶性BCMA、CD38和APRIL。新鲜PBMC(购自轩峰生物公司)300g离心10min,用含有200U IL2的1640+10%FBS(A液)重悬,置于T75的培养瓶培养过夜(密度为2E6/mL);收集离心后分别用1640+10%FBS的培养基重悬、计数,调整细胞数为1.5×10 6细胞/mL,每孔加入50μL。收集靶细胞,1000rpm离心3分钟,重悬、计数,调整细胞数为3×10 5细胞/mL,每孔加入25μL,E:T Ratio为10:1。抗体用细胞分别对应的培养基稀释,起始浓度为400nM(4×终浓度),10倍稀释9个梯度,每孔加入25μL。然后将细胞放在37℃,5%CO 2的培养箱培养48h。萤光信号检测:取出培养板,1000rpm离心3min,吸取50μL上清于新的96孔板,冻存于-20℃冰箱,在原来含有细胞的板子中,按1:1的比例加入50μL one-Glo,室温孵育5分钟,检测发光的数值(将未加抗体组的细胞的发光值定义为0杀伤),计算不同抗体在不同浓度下的杀伤百分比。

注:“相对IC 50”表示添加可溶性蛋白的IC50与不添加可溶性蛋白的IC50的比值。
结果显示,本披露的抗体的细胞毒活性受可溶性BCMA/CD38/APRIL影响极小。与没有可溶性蛋白存在的条件下进行对比,30ng/mL的可溶性BCMA、5ng/mL的可溶性CD38以及100ng/mL的可溶性APRIL分别存在或者共同存在仅使本披露的抗体的细胞毒作用IC 50变至原来的0.8~2.5倍,而AMGEN701在可溶性蛋白存在时,IC 50却增加到原来的10倍。
测试例6.抗体诱导的细胞因子释放水平检测
CD3T细胞衔接分子会引起细胞因子风暴。因此开发CD3T细胞衔接分子时,需要能将细胞因子,尤其是和药效无关但会引起副作用的因子IL-6,保持在较低水平。
将CHO-K1细胞1000rpm离心分钟,收集50μL的细胞上清用标本通用稀释液稀释6倍,IL-6或IL-2标准品亦稀释6倍,在检测板中加入稀释好的样品或者不同浓度标准品(100μL/孔),用封板胶纸封住反应孔,37℃孵育90分钟后洗板5次,加入生物素化抗体工作液(100μL/孔),用新封板胶纸封住反应孔,37℃孵育60分钟后洗板5次,加入酶结合物工作液(100μL/孔),用新封板胶纸封住反应孔,37℃孵育30分钟后洗板5次,加入显色底物(TMB)100μL/孔,避光37℃孵育8分钟,加入反应终止液100μL/孔,混匀后即刻测量OD450值(3分钟内)。
