Definitions

  • the present invention provides a composition for preventing or treating cancer comprising a humanized anti-VSIG4 antibody or binding fragment thereof; and a composition that additionally contains an anti-PD-L1 antibody and exhibits a significant cancer prevention or treatment effect.
  • GLOBOCAN 2020 produced by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, estimates that there were approximately 19.3 million new cancer cases (18.1 million excluding non-melanoma skin cancer) and nearly 10 million cancer deaths (excluding non-melanoma skin cancer) worldwide in 2020. It is reported that 9.9 million people (excluding non-melanoma skin cancer) occurred.
  • Cancer treatment technology has continued to develop, but existing treatment methods all have limitations. In order to determine the need for developing new treatments, it is necessary to establish a comprehensive strategy that considers the survival rate for each cancer type.
  • Immunotherapy which is currently undergoing active research and development, is expected to minimize the side effects of existing treatments by strengthening the immune system of cancer patients and allowing the body to destroy cancer cells on its own.
  • more than 70% of patients show resistance to immunotherapy, making it difficult to expect a therapeutic effect.
  • One of the reasons for this low treatment effect is that the tumor microenvironment is not taken into consideration, so recent anticancer drug treatment is approached with a strategy that takes the tumor microenvironment into consideration.
  • the tumor micro-environment is favorable for tumor growth and metastasis.
  • the tumor microenvironment is well known to have suppressed immune function and metabolic stress, which acts as a major obstacle to anticancer treatment.
  • the tumor microenvironment is classified as “cold” or “hot” depending on the degree of T cell infiltration. Hot tumors are infiltrated with T cells and are immune activated, whereas cold tumors are characterized by the absence or exclusion of T cells. In these cold tumors, it is difficult for effector immune cells to infiltrate and resistance to various immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) appears.
  • ICIs immune checkpoint inhibitors
  • One of the reasons why many immune checkpoint inhibitors that have been attempted previously have low actual therapeutic effects is because they do not take into account the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, to increase the response rate to immunotherapy, removal or reprogramming of the abnormal tumor microenvironment that converts noninflamed cold tumors into hot tumors can be an important anticancer treatment approach.
  • Tumor-associated macrophages a specific type of macrophage found in the tumor microenvironment, are known to be important cells that create a chronic inflammatory state in cancer.
  • Tumor-related macrophages migrate to tumor tissues in response to tumor-related inflammation and, unlike other common macrophages, lack cytokine activity.
  • Tumor-related macrophages secrete immune regulatory cytokines such as IL-4, IL-13, and IL-10, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which promotes angiogenesis and epidermal growth that helps tumor growth. It has been reported that epidermal growth factor (EGF) is also secreted. For this reason, since the increase in tumor-related macrophages is directly related to the poor prognosis of cancer, there is a need for new anticancer treatments targeting tumor-related macrophages.
  • cytokines such as IL-4, IL-13, and IL-10
  • VEGF vascular endothelial growth factor
  • VSIG4 (V-set immunoglobulin-domain-containing 4) is mainly expressed in tissue-resident macrophages (M2 type macrophages), especially Kupffer cells in liver tissue.
  • M2 type macrophages tissue-resident macrophages
  • VSIG4 is expressed in tumor-associated macrophages (TAM), which inhibits the proliferation of antigen-specific T cells, suppresses inflammatory cytokine production, and induces proteins involved in immune tolerance. This creates a favorable environment for tumors. It is associated with worse survival in carcinomas showing increased VSIG4 expression, such as non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), multiple myeloma, ovarian cancer, and glioma. This suggests that VSIG4 plays an important role in tumor immune evasion.
  • NSCLC non-small cell lung cancer
  • the present inventors While researching a new anticancer agent that can improve the tumor-related microenvironment, the present inventors discovered that the anti-VSIG4 antibody of the present invention, which targets VSIG4, which plays an important role in tumor immune evasion, was found to have antibody-dependent cytotoxicity (Antibody-Dependent Cellular). It was confirmed that it can have the effect of improving the tumor microenvironment without showing cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), especially when administered in combination with anti-PD-L1 antibody. The present invention was completed after confirming that it can exhibit excellent anti-cancer effects.

  • EU103 showed binding activity to VSIG4 of anti-inflammatory macrophages, and showed saturated binding activity at a concentration of 0.3125 ⁇ g/mL or higher.
  • IgG1 antibodies are known to have the disadvantage of showing strong ADCC (Antibody-Dependent Cellular Cytotoxicity) and CDC (Complement-Dependent Cytotoxicity) effects due to their high binding affinity for Fc ⁇ and complement activity, but they have the advantage of structural stability and high flexibility. Therefore, to preserve the antibody's ability to induce the conversion of anti-inflammatory macrophages to inflammatory macrophages by targeting VSIG4, but also to prevent the reaction mediating the elimination of anti-inflammatory macrophages, mutations were added to the Fc region of IgG1. EU103 was prepared in a form in which binding to Fc ⁇ and C1q, the main proteins mediating ADCC and CDC, was removed.
  • ADCC and CDC activities of IgG1, EU103, and EU103-IgG1 were tested using peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) used in the classical ADCC assay and HeLa cells overexpressing VSIG4 as target cells.
  • PBMC peripheral blood mononuclear cells
  • EU103 introduced three mutations (human IgG1 L234F/L235E/P331S SEQ ID NO: 9) into the IgG1 Fc region to eliminate ADCC and CDC activities, while EU103-IgG1 has wild-type IgG1 Fc.
  • SEQ ID NO: 9 human IgG1 L234F/L235E/P331S (mutation underlined, bold)
  • ADCC activity of EU103 was not observed when compared with EU103-IgG1 introduced with wild-type IgG1 without Fc region mutation.
  • EU103-IgG1 in which no mutation was introduced, cells were killed in a dose-dependent manner.
  • CDC is initiated by the binding of the antibody Fc domain to the complement protein C1q.
  • ELISA was performed to examine EU103 binding to C1q, and the results are shown in Figure 6.
  • EU103 showed minimal binding to C1q protein, which shows that it has a very low level of CDC activity.
  • CFSE staining can measure the number of cell divisions by number of dilutions.
  • CD4+/CD8+ T cells were isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of healthy donors and activated using anti-CD3 antibody.
  • Tumor-associated macrophages do not exist under normal conditions, but are observed in many tumors and are therefore considered important in anticancer treatment.
  • the specific polarization state of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), as anti-inflammatory-like macrophages, are important components of the tumor microenvironment and are a subject of important research in anticancer therapy. Converting anti-inflammatory macrophages to a tumor-suppressing inflammatory macrophage phenotype may be a new therapeutic approach for improving anti-tumor immunity.
  • the role of EU103 in tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) was analyzed to determine whether EU103 can transform TAMs isolated from the ascites of ovarian cancer patients.
  • CD14+ cells were isolated from the ascites of an ovarian cancer patient, and the isolated tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) expressed CD68 and CD163, and at the same time, the expression of VSIG4 was also observed.
  • the isolated tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) were treated with EU103 for 2 days, and changes in the expression of macrophage surface markers and secretion of cytokines and enzymes in the culture medium were measured.
  • LPS/IFN-g was treated as a positive control, and the experimental results are shown in Figure 8.
  • EU103 can improve the tumor microenvironment (TME) by converting tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) into inflammatory macrophages that suppress tumors, which means that EU103 can exert anticancer effects by improving the tumor microenvironment. It indicates that there is.
  • TEM tumor-associated macrophages
  • EU103 is an antibody that acts on human VSIG4, and its binding affinity for mouse VSIG4 is low and cannot be observed. Therefore, the anticancer effect of EU103 was evaluated using a humanized mouse model introduced with the human immune system.
  • Humanized mice can be simply defined as research mice in which human cells or tissues are transplanted or genes are introduced into immunodeficient mice.
  • To introduce the human immune system the most common methods are transplantation of human hematopoietic stem cells (hu-HSC, CD34+ humanization) or white blood cells present in human peripheral blood (human peripheral blood leukocytes, hu-PBL, PBMC humanization) is separated and injected.
  • orthotopic models are known to be more clinically relevant and better able to predict drug effects.

  • Human IgG (hIgG) was administered as a control group, and the results of tumor size and body weight changes following EU103 administration are shown in Figure 9.
  • Preliminary monkey toxicity studies were performed using liver Kupffer cells (KC) from cynomolgus monkeys.

  • Kupffer cells Preserving Kupffer cells is important for immune homeostasis. Because Kupffer cells express VSIG4, a depletion effect by the ADCC activity of EU103-IgG1 (Anti-VSIG4-IgG1) was expected. Kupffer cells were isolated from the liver of cynomolgus monkeys to analyze depletion of Kupffer cells using FACS. As shown in Figure 10, the test results confirmed that Kupffer cells constitutively express both CD4 and VSIG4. EU103-IgG1 (Anti-VSIG4-IgG1) of IgG1 wild type reduced Kupffer cells by 64%, but EU103 of the present invention had no significant effect on the Kupffer cell population of cynomolgus monkeys. Additionally, no changes in clinical chemistry, including normal ALT and AST, were observed in monkeys administered EU103. In other words, no drug-related adverse reactions were observed in monkeys administered EU103, and clinical signs were normal at 20 mg/kg.
