Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to the field of pharmaceutical preparations, and in particular to a pharmaceutical composition comprising an anti-MASP2 antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof, and pharmaceutical uses thereof.
  • the complement system is a protein present in human and animal serum, tissue fluid and cell membrane surface. It has biological activity after activation and can mediate immune and inflammatory responses.
  • the complement system is composed of nearly 40 components, most of which are glycoproteins, including C1q, C1r, C1s, C2-C9, D factor, B factor, as well as 10 regulatory proteins and 10 complement receptors.
  • Complement is widely involved in the body's defense response to microorganisms and immune regulation, and also in the damaging response of immunopathology. Complement is an important effector system and effector amplification system of innate immunity.
  • the activation process of the complement system is manifested as a cascade of enzymatic reactions of serine proteases, which are divided into three types: the classical activation pathway, the alternative pathway, and the lectin pathway, which ultimately mediate the activation of the terminal pathway marked by the formation of a membrane-breaking complex.
  • the alternative pathway maintains a low level of activation for a long time to monitor the invasion of pathogenic microorganisms.
  • Healthy cells also inhibit the attack of the complement system on them by expressing complement regulatory proteins such as CD55 and CD59.
  • the three pathways are usually activated on the surface of apoptotic cells and microorganisms.
  • the classical pathway is that antibodies (IgG1, IGG, IgG3, IgG4 or IgM) form immune complexes with antigen structures and are recognized by C1q, C1s, and C1r, activating C2 and C4 to form C4bC2a (that is, C3 convertase), which ultimately promotes the formation of a membrane-breaking complex composed of C5-C9.
  • the alternative pathway is an activation pathway that starts directly from the spontaneous hydrolysis of C3.
  • lectin pathway is a direct recognition of mannose, N-acetylmannose, N-acetylglucosamine, fucose, and other sugar structures on the surface of various pathogenic microorganisms by mannan-binding lectin (MBL) or fibrin (FCN) in plasma, followed by activation of the classical complement pathway.
  • MBL mannan-binding lectin
  • FCN fibrin
  • the safety of targeting the complement system is generally safe and tolerable. Considering that the complement system is involved in regulating the development of B cells and the activation of T cells, mice with complement factor gene deletions have defects in reproductive capacity or embryonic development, and have an increased risk of infection. Therefore, the development of drugs targeting specific upstream targets of the complement pathway can ensure the efficacy of the drug. At the same time, it reduces the side effects of overall inhibition of the complement pathway.
  • MASP2 protein is the core hydrolase of the lectin pathway. It consists of CUB at the N-terminus responsible for binding to MBL, the EGF domain, the CCP domain that binds to the downstream substrates C4 and C2, and the SP domain at the C-terminus.
  • the MBL-MASP complex binds to the sugar structure on the surface of the pathogen, causing MASP-1 and MASP-2 to be activated independently.
  • the activated MASP2 exerts its SP activity, cleaves C4 and C2 to form the C3 convertase C4b2a, and can eventually activate the complement system mediated by the lectin pathway. It has been confirmed to be related to IgA nephropathy, stroke, and myocardial ischemia.
  • MASP2 deficiency can significantly reduce the infarct area.
  • MBL-MASP2 mainly recognizes IgA with missing galactose modification.
  • the activation of the LP pathway promotes the secretion of cytokines, ultimately leading to damage to tubular epithelial cells and podocytes, and abnormal kidney function.
  • Omeros' MASP2 monoclonal antibody narsoplimab (OMS721) is developed to treat a variety of inflammatory-related diseases, including thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), IgA nephropathy, hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), lupus nephritis, membranous glomerulonephritis, glomerulonephritis, age-related macular degeneration, reperfusion injury, myocardial infarction, diabetic neuropathy, stroke, and graft-versus-host disease, mainly by inhibiting lectin-mediated complement system activation.

  • HUS hemolytic uremic syndrome
  • lupus nephritis membranous glomerulonephritis
  • glomerulonephritis age-related macular degeneration
  • reperfusion injury myocardial infarction
  • diabetic neuropathy diabetic neuropathy
  • stroke graft-versus
  • TMA TMA-associated glomerulonephritis
  • HUS and IgA nephropathy in clinical phase III
  • lupus nephritis, membranous glomerulonephritis, and glomerulonephritis is in clinical phase II.
  • the applicant's patent application WO2022228364 provides an anti-MASP2 antibody with a new structure, which has good inhibitory activity on MASP2-dependent complement activation.
  • Antibody drugs are an important class of biological drugs. They have large molecular weight and complex structure. They are easily affected by physical or chemical factors during production, storage and use, causing degradation and aggregation, resulting in reduced activity or even failure. Therefore, it is very important to develop excellent antibody preparations.

一种抗MASP2抗体的组合物及医药用途 技术领域
本公开涉及药物制剂领域,具体涉及一种包含抗MASP2抗体或其抗原结合片段的药物组合物,及其药物用途。
背景技术
补体系统是存在于人和动物血清、组织液和细胞膜表面的蛋白,经活化后具有生物活性,可介导免疫和炎症反应。补体系统由近40种成分组成,多数为糖蛋白,包括C1q、C1r、C1s、C2-C9、D因子、B因子,以及10种调节蛋白和10种补体受体。补体广泛参与机体对微生物的防御反应以及免疫调节,也参与免疫病理的损伤性反应。补体是固有免疫重要的效应系统和效应放大系统。
补体系统的活化过程表现为丝氨酸蛋白酶级联酶解反应,分为三种类型:经典激活通路(Classic pathway),替代通路(Alternative pathway),凝集素通路(Lectin pathway),最终介导以破膜复合物形成为标志的末端通路的活化。在健康人中,替代通路长期保持低水平激活以监视病原微生物入侵。健康细胞也通过表达CD55、CD59等补体调节蛋白,抑制补体系统对其攻击。三个通路通常在凋亡细胞、微生物表面活化。经典通路是抗体(IgG1,IGG,IgG3,IgG4或者IgM)与抗原结构后形成免疫复合物被C1q、C1s,C1r识别后,激活C2、C4,形成C4bC2a(即为C3转化酶),最终促进C5-C9组成的破膜复合物形成。替代通路是直接由C3自发水解开始的激活途径,在细菌细胞壁成分LPS、酵母聚糖Zymosan等多糖、肽聚糖、磷壁酸等激活物质刺激下,因子D(Factor D)水解C3结合的因子B(Factor B)形成C3bBb3,继而完成C5至C9各成分的连锁反应。凝集素途径由血浆中甘露聚糖结合凝集素(mannan-binding lectin,MBL)或纤维胶凝蛋白(ficolin,FCN)直接识别多种病原微生物表面的甘露糖、N-乙酰甘露糖、N-乙酰葡萄糖氨、岩藻糖等为末端糖基的糖结构,继之活化补体经典通路。
临床实验和研究证据表明,补体系统的异常活化与急性败血症、缺血再灌注相关的中风、心肌梗死、移植物排斥;与慢性自身免疫疾病如关节炎、眼科年龄相关黄斑病变、微血管血栓、慢性肾病、溶血性疾病的发生相关。目前靶向补体的在研药物中,C5抗体Eculizumab已于2007年获批上市,主要用于治疗溶血性疾病PNH、aHUS、重症肌无力等疾病。其他靶向凝集素通路的抗MASP2抗体,靶向替代通路的Factor D,FactorB,C3的药物也处在临床II到III期。靶向补体系统的安全性,总体是安全可耐受的。考虑到补体系统参与调控B细胞的发育、T细胞的活化,补体因子基因缺失小鼠在繁殖能力或胚胎发育的缺陷、并有增加感染的风险。因此,开发针对特定补体通路上游靶点的药物,能够在保证药效的 同时,降低补体通路整体抑制后的副作用。
MASP2蛋白是凝集素通路的核心水解酶,由N端负责与MBL结合的CUB,EGF结构域,与下游底物C4、C2结合的CCP结构域,以及C端的酶活结构域SP组成。MBL-MASP复合物与病原体表面糖结构结合,使MASP-1、MASP-2被独立地激活。活化的MASP2发挥其SP活性,裂解C4、C2形成C3转化酶C4b2a,最终能够激活凝集素通路介导的补体系统,目前已经证实与IgA肾病、中风、心肌缺血有关。在小鼠脑卒中MCAO模型中及急性心肌梗死模型中,可以看到MASP2缺失能够显著降低梗死面积。MBL-MASP2主要通过识别半乳糖修饰缺失的IgA,在肾小球系膜上,LP通路的激活促进细胞因子的分泌,最终导致肾小管上皮细胞、足细胞的损伤,肾脏功能的异常。
Omeros公司的MASP2单抗narsoplimab(OMS721)主要通过抑制凝集素介导的补体系统活化,被开发用于治疗多种炎性相关疾病,包括血栓性微血管病(TMA)、IgA肾病、溶血性尿毒综合征(HUS)、狼疮性肾炎、膜性肾小球肾炎、肾小球性肾炎、年龄相关性黄斑变性、再灌注性损伤、心肌梗死、糖尿病神经病变、中风、移植物抗宿主病。其中,TMA的研究在美国处于预注册状态,HUS、IgA肾病的研究处于临床III期,狼疮性肾炎、膜性肾小球肾炎、肾小球性肾炎的研究处于临床II期。
鉴于MASP2在凝集素通路的重要作用,提供新结构的抗MASP2抗体,抑制MASP2依赖性补体活化,治疗补体系统异常导致的疾病,仍然是本领域亟待解决的问题。
本申请人的专利申请WO2022228364提供了一种新结构的抗MASP2抗体,其对MASP2依赖性补体活化具有较好的抑制活性。
抗体药物是一类重要的生物药物,其分子量大,结构复杂,在生产、储存、使用过程中容易受到物理或化学方面的影响而发生降解、聚合,导致活性降低甚至失效。因此,研制优秀的抗体制剂是十分重要的。

术语定义
为了更容易理解本公开,以下具体定义了某些技术和科学术语。除非在本文中另有明确定义,本文使用的所有其它技术和科学术语都具有本公开所属领域的一般技术人员通常理解的含义。
本公开所用氨基酸三字母代码和单字母代码如J.biol.chem,243,p3558(1968)中所述。
“MASP-2依赖的补体活化”包括凝集素途径的MASP-2依赖的活化,其在生理条件下发生(即,在存在Ca++的情况下),导致凝集素途径C3转化酶C4b2a的形成,并且在C3切割产物C3b的积累后导致C5转化酶C42a(C3b)n。
“经典途径”是指由抗体与外源颗粒结合而触发的并且需要结合识别分子 C1q的补体活化。"替代途径"是指补体活化,其例如通过来自真菌和酵母细胞壁的酵母聚糖、来自革兰氏阴性细菌外膜的脂多糖(LPS)和兔红细胞,以及许多纯的多糖、兔红细胞、病毒、细菌、动物肿瘤细胞、寄生虫和受损的细胞触发,并且其在传统上被认为自补体因子C3自发蛋白水解产生C3b而产生。“凝集素途径”是指补体活化,其经由血清和非-血清糖结合蛋白的特异性结合发生,所述糖结合蛋白包括甘露聚糖-结合凝集素(MBL)、CL-11和纤维胶凝蛋白(H-纤维胶凝蛋白、M-纤维胶凝蛋白或L-纤维胶凝蛋白)。
“抗体”以最广义使用,涵盖各种抗体结构,包括但不限于单克隆抗体,多克隆抗体;单特异性抗体,多特异性抗体(例如双特异性抗体),全长抗体和抗体片段(或抗原结合片段,或抗原结合部分),只要它们展现出期望的抗原结合活性。抗体可以指免疫球蛋白,是由两条相同的重链和两条相同的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。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(CDR)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。
对于CDR的确定或定义,能够通过分辨抗体的结构和/或分辨抗体-配体复合物的结构来完成CDR的确定性描绘和包含抗体的结合位点的残基的鉴定。这可通过本领域技术人员已知的各种技术中的任一种,例如X射线晶体学来实现。多种分析方法可用于鉴定CDR,包括但不限于Kabat编号系统、Chothia编号系统、AbM编号系统、IMGT编号系统、接触定义、构象定义。
Kabat编号系统是用于编号抗体中残基的标准并且通常用于鉴定CDR区域(参见例如Johnson&Wu,2000,Nucleic Acids Res.,28:214-8)。Chothia编号系统与Kabat编号系统类似,但Chothia编号系统考虑了某些结构环区域的位置。(参见例如Chothia等,1986,J.Mol.Biol.,196:901-17;Chothia等人,1989,Nature,342:877-83)。AbM编号系统使用建模抗体结构的由Oxford Molecular Group生产的计算机程序集成套件(参见例如Martin等,1989,ProcNatl Acad Sci(USA),86:9268-9272;“AbMTM,A Computer Program for ModelingVariable  Regions of Antibodies,”Oxford,UK;Oxford Molecular,Ltd)。AbM编号系统使用知识数据库和从头开始方法的组合,从基本序列建模抗体的三级结构(参见Samudrala等,1999,在PROTEINS,Structure,Function and Genetics Suppl.,3:194-198中的“Ab Initio Protein Structure Prediction Using a Combined HierarchicalApproach”描述的那些)。接触定义基于可用复杂晶体结构的分析(参见例如MacCallum等,1996,J.Mol.Biol.,5:732-45)。构象定义中,CDR的位置可鉴定为对抗原结合做出焓贡献的残基(参见例如Makabe等,2008,Journal ofBiological Chemistry,283:1156-1166)。另外其它的CDR边界定义可能不严格遵循上述方法之一,但仍然与Kabat CDR的至少一部分重叠,尽管根据特定残基或残基组不显著影响抗原结合的预测或实验结果,它们可缩短或延长。如本公开使用的,CDR可指通过本领域已知的任何方法(包括方法的组合)定义的CDR。
本公开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或AbM编号系统。
“单克隆抗体”或“单抗”指从基本上同质的抗体群体获得的抗体,即除了可能以少量存在的可能天然存在的突变之外,群体包含的各个抗体是相同的。单克隆抗体是高度特异性的,针对单个抗原位点。此外,与通常包括针对不同决定簇(表位)的不同抗体的多克隆抗体制剂相反,每种单克隆抗体针对抗原上的单个决定簇。修饰语“单克隆”指示如从基本上同质的抗体群体获得的抗体的特征,并且不被解释为需要通过任何特定方法产生抗体。例如,根据本公开使用的单克隆抗体可通过首先由Kohler和Milstein,1975,Nature256:495描述的杂交瘤方法来制备,或者可通过例如美国专利号4,816,567中所述的重组DNA方法来制备。例如,单克隆抗体也可从使用McCafferty等,1990,Nature 348:552-554中描述的技术,从所生成的噬菌体文库中分离。
“全人抗体”或“重组全人抗体”包括通过重组方法制备、表达、创建或分离的全人抗体,所涉及的技术和方法在本领域中是熟知的,诸如:
(1)从人免疫球蛋白基因的转基因、转染色体动物(例如小鼠)或由其制备的杂交瘤中分离的抗体;
(2)从经转化以表达抗体的宿主细胞如转染瘤中分离的抗体;
(3)从重组组合全人抗体文库中分离的抗体;以及
(4)通过将人免疫球蛋白基因序列剪接到其他DNA序列等方法制备、表达、创建或分离的抗体。
此类重组全人抗体包含可变区和恒定区,这些区域利用特定的由种系基因编码的人种系免疫球蛋白序列,但也包括随后诸如在抗体成熟过程中发生的重排和突变。
术语“鼠源抗体”在本公开中为根据本领域知识和技能制备的针对人MASP2或其表位的单克隆抗体。制备时用MASP2抗原注射试验对象,然后分离 表达具有所需序列或功能特性的抗体的杂交瘤。在本公开一个具体的实施方案中,所述的鼠源抗人抗MASP2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,或进一步包含鼠源IgG1、IgG2、IgG3或IgG4或其变体的重链恒定区。
术语“全人抗体”包括具有人种系免疫球蛋白序列的可变和恒定区的抗体。本公开的全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“全人抗体”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”)。
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CDR序列移植到人的抗体可变区框架中产生的抗体。可以克服嵌合抗体由于携带大量非人蛋白成分,从而诱导的强烈的免疫应答反应。为避免在免疫原性下降的同时引起活性的下降,可对所述的全人抗体可变区可进行最少反向突变,以保持活性。
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,可以减轻第一物种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,再要据需要克隆全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。全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IgG2或IgG4重链恒定区,或者使用氨基酸突变后无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。
“抗原结合片段”包括:单链抗体(即全长重链和轻链);Fab、修饰的Fab、Fab’、修饰的Fab’、F(ab’)2、Fv、Fab-Fv、Fab-dsFv、单结构域抗体(例如VH或VL或VHH)、scFv、二价或三价或四价抗体、Bis-scFv、diabody、tribody、triabody、tetrabody和上述任意一种的表位结合片段(参见例如Holliger and Hudson,2005,Nature Biotech.23(9):1126-1136;Adair and Lawson,2005,Drug Design Reviews-Online 2(3),209-217)。产生和制备这些抗体片段的方法在本领域是公知的(参见例如Verma等人,1998,Journal ofImmunological Methods,216,165-181)。Fab-Fv形式首先公开于WO2009/040562,其二硫键稳定化形式Fab-dsFv首先公开于WO2010/035012。本公开的抗原结合片段还包括描述于WO2005/003169、WO2005/003170和WO2005/003171中的Fab和Fab’片段。多价抗体可包含多特异性例如双特异性或可以是单特异性的(参见例如WO92/22583和WO05/113605),后者的一个示例是描述于WO 92/22583中的Tri-Fab(或TFM)。
本公开的术语“与MASP2结合”,指能与MASP2或其表位相互作用,所述 MASP2或其表位可以是人源的。本公开的术语“抗原结合位点”指抗原上不连续的,由本公开抗体或抗原结合片段识别的三维空间位点。
“抗原”指用于免疫接种免疫活性的脊椎动物的分子,以产生识别抗原的抗体,或筛选表达文库(例如尤其是噬菌体、酵母或核糖体展示文库)。在本公开中,抗原被更广义地定义,包括由抗体特异性识别的靶分子,以及包括用于产生抗体的免疫接种过程或用于选择抗体的文库筛选中使用的分子的一部分或模拟物。对于本公开的与人MASP2结合的抗体,人MASP2的单体和多聚体(例如二聚体、三聚体等),以及人MASP2的截短变体和其它变体均被称为抗原。
术语“表位”是指抗原上与免疫球蛋白或抗体结合的位点。表位可以由相邻的氨基酸、或通过蛋白质的三级折叠而并列的不相邻的氨基酸形成。由相邻的氨基酸形成的表位通常在暴露于变性溶剂后保持,而通过三级折叠形成的表位通常在变性溶剂处理后丧失。表位通常以独特的空间构象包括至少3-15个氨基酸。确定什么表位由给定的抗体结合的方法在本领域中是熟知的,包括免疫印迹和免疫沉淀检测分析等。确定表位的空间构象的方法包括本领域中的技术和本公开所述的技术,例如X射线晶体分析法和二维核磁共振等。
“特异性结合”、“选择性结合”是指抗体与预定的抗原上的表位结合。通常,当使用人MASP2或其表位作为分析物并使用抗体作为配体,在仪器中通过表面等离子体共振(SPR)技术测定时,抗体以大约低于10-7M或甚至更小的平衡解离常数(KD)与预定的抗原或其表位结合,并且其与预定抗原或其表位结合的亲和力是其与预定抗原(或其表位)或紧密相关的抗原之外的非特异性抗原(如BSA等)结合的亲和力的至少两倍。术语“识别抗原的抗体”在本公开中可以与术语“特异性结合的抗体”互换使用。
“结合亲和力”或“亲和力”在本公开中用作两个分子(例如抗体或其部分与抗原)之间的非共价相互作用的强度量度。两个分子之间的结合亲和力可通过确定解离常数(KD)来量化。可通过使用例如表面等离子共振(SPR)方法(Biacore)测量复合物形成和解离的动力学来确定KD。对应于单价复合物的结合和解离的速率常数分别被称为结合速率常数ka(或kon)和解离速率常数kd(或koff)。KD通过方程KD=kd/ka与ka和kd有关。解离常数的值可通过众所周知的方法直接确定,并且可通过方法例如Caceci等人(1984,Byte 9:340-362)中所述的那些甚至对于复杂混合物进行计算。例如,可使用双重过滤硝化纤维素滤器结合测定如Wong&Lohman(1993,Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.USA 90:5428-5432)中公开的那种来确定KD。评估抗体针对靶抗原的结合能力的其它标准测定是本领域已知的,包括例如ELISA、蛋白质印迹、RIA和流式细胞术分析、以及本公开其它地方例举的其它测定。抗体的结合动力学和结合亲和力也可通过本领域已知的标准测定,例如表面等离子共振(SPR),例如通过使用BiacoreTM系统或KinExA来评价。可通过比较各个抗体/抗原复合物的KD值来比较与不同分子相互作用相关的结合亲和 力,例如,不同抗体对于给定抗原的结合亲和力的比较。类似地,相互作用的特异性可通过确定和比较目的相互作用(例如抗体和抗原之间的特异性相互作用)的KD值与非目的相互作用(例如已知不结合MASP2的对照抗体)的KD值进行评价。
“保守(性)置换”指置换为具有与原始氨基酸残基相似的特性的另一个氨基酸残基。例如,赖氨酸、精氨酸和组氨酸具有相似的特性,在于它们具有碱性侧链,并且天冬氨酸和谷氨酸具有相似的特性,在于它们具有酸性侧链。此外,甘氨酸、天冬酰胺、谷氨酰胺、丝氨酸、苏氨酸、酪氨酸、半胱氨酸和色氨酸具有相似的特性,在于它们具有不带电荷极性侧链,并且丙氨酸、缬氨酸、亮氨酸、苏氨酸、异亮氨酸、脯氨酸、苯丙氨酸和甲硫氨酸具有相似的特性,在于它们具有非极性侧链。另外,酪氨酸、苯丙氨酸、色氨酸和组氨酸具有相似的特性,在于它们具有芳族侧链。因此,本领域技术人员将显而易见,甚至当置换如上文所述的显示相似特性的组中的氨基酸残基时,它将不显示特性的特定变化。
“交叉反应”是指本公开的抗体与来自不同物种的MASP2结合的能力。例如,结合人MASP2的本公开的抗体也可以结合另一物种的MASP2。交叉反应性是通过在结合测定(例如SPR和ELISA)中检测与纯化抗原的特异性反应性,或与生理表达MASP2的细胞的结合或功能性相互作用来测量。确定交叉反应性的方法包括如本公开所述的标准结合测定,例如表面等离子体共振分析,或流式细胞术。
“抑制”或“阻断”可互换使用,并涵盖部分和完全抑制/阻断这两者。对MASP2的抑制/阻断优选地降低或改变无抑制或阻断的情况下发生MASP2结合时出现活性的正常水平或类型。抑制和阻断也旨在包括与抗MASP2抗体接触时,与未与抗MASP2抗体接触的MASP2相比,任何可测量的MASP2结合亲和力降低。
“抑制生长”(例如涉及细胞)旨在包括细胞生长任何可测量的降低。
生产和纯化抗体和抗原结合片段的方法在现有技术中熟知和能找到,如冷泉港的抗体实验技术指南(5-8章和15章)。如,可以用人MASP2或其片段免疫小鼠,所得到的抗体能被复性、纯化,并且可以用常规的方法进行氨基酸测序。抗原结合片段同样可以用常规方法制备。本公开所述的抗体或抗原结合片段用基因工程方法在非人源的CDR区加上一个或多个人FR区。人FR种系序列可以从ImMunoGeneTics(IMGT)网站得到。
本公开工程化的抗体或抗原结合片段可用常规方法制备和纯化。比如,编码重链和轻链的cDNA序列,可以克隆并重组至表达载体。重组的免疫球蛋白表达载体可以稳定地转染细胞。哺乳动物类表达系统会导致抗体的糖基化,特别是在Fc区的高度保守N端。通过表达与人源抗原特异性结合的抗体得到稳定的克隆。阳性的克隆在生物反应器的无血清培养基中扩大培养以生产抗体。分泌了抗体的培养液可以用常规技术纯化、收集。抗体可用常规方法进行过滤浓缩。可溶的混 合物和多聚体,也可以用常规方法去除,比如分子筛,离子交换。得到的产物需立即冷冻,如-70℃,或者冻干。
可使用本领域技术人员已知的常规技术,就与相同表位的结合竞争性筛选抗体。例如,可进行竞争和交叉竞争研究,以获得彼此竞争或交叉竞争与抗原结合的抗体。基于它们的交叉竞争来获得结合相同表位的抗体的高通量方法描述于国际专利公开WO03/48731中。因此,可使用本领域技术人员已知的常规技术,获得与本公开的抗体分子竞争结合MASP2上的相同表位的抗体及其抗原结合片段。
“给予”、“施用”和“处理”当应用于动物、人、实验受试者、细胞、组织、器官或生物流体时,是指外源性药物、治疗剂、诊断剂或组合物与动物、人、受试者、细胞、组织、器官或生物流体的接触。“给予”、“施用”和“处理”可以指例如治疗、药物代谢动力学、诊断、研究和实验方法。细胞的处理包括试剂与细胞的接触,以及试剂与流体的接触,其中所述流体与细胞接触。“给予”、“施用”和“处理”还意指通过试剂、诊断、结合组合物或通过另一种细胞体外和离体处理例如细胞。“处理”当应用于人、兽医学或研究受试者时,是指治疗处理、预防或预防性措施,研究和诊断应用。

“有效量”包含足以改善或预防医学病症的症状或病症的量。有效量还意指足以允许或促进诊断的量。用于特定受试者或兽医学受试者的有效量可依据以下因素而变化:如待治疗的病症、受试者的总体健康情况、给药的方法途径和剂量以及副作用严重性。有效量可以是避免显著副作用或毒性作用的最大剂量或给药方案。
“同源性”或“同一性”是指两个多核苷酸序列之间或两个多肽之间的序列 相似性。当两个比较序列中的位置均被相同核苷酸或氨基酸单体亚基占据时,例如如果两个DNA分子的每一个位置都被相同核苷酸占据时,那么所述分子在该位置是同源的。两个序列之间的同源性百分率是两个序列共有的匹配或同源位置数除以比较的位置数×100%的函数。例如,在序列最佳比对时,如果两个序列中的10个位置有6个匹配或同源,那么两个序列为60%同源。一般而言,当比对两个序列而得到最大的同源性百分率时进行比较。
“细胞”、“细胞系”和“细胞培养物”可互换使用,并且所有这类名称都包括其后代。还应当理解的是,由于故意或非有意的突变,所有后代在DNA含量方面不可能精确相同。包括具有与最初转化细胞中筛选的相同的功能或生物学活性的突变后代。
“药学可接受的载体”或“药学可接受的赋形剂”包括当与活性成分组合时,允许该成分保留生物学活性并且不与受试者的免疫系统反应的任何材料。例子包括但不限于任何标准药物载体,例如磷酸盐缓冲盐水溶液、水、乳剂如油/水乳剂、和各种类型的润湿剂。在一些实施例中,用于气雾剂或肠胃外施用的稀释剂是磷酸盐缓冲盐水(PBS)或生理(0.9%)盐水。包含此类载体的组合物通过众所周知的常规方法配制(参见例如Remington′s Pharmaceutical Sciences,第18版,A.Gennaro,编辑,Mack PublishingCo.,Easton,PA,1990;以及R Remington,The Science and Practice of Pharmacy第20版Mack Publishing,2000)。
“任选”或“任选地”意味着随后所描述地事件或环境可以但不必发生,该说明包括该事件或环境发生或不发生地场合。例如,“任选包含1-3个抗体重链可变区”意味着特定序列的抗体重链可变区可以但不必须存在。
本公开的“MASP2结合蛋白”或“MASP2结合分子”以最大化解释,包含本公开的抗MASP2抗体或其抗原结合片段,只要能够实现与MASP2结合的蛋白均在该术语范围内。例如,MASP2结合蛋白(或结合分子)可以包含一个或多个效应分子,以例如缀和或融合的方式。所述“效应分子”包括:例如抗肿瘤剂、药物、毒素、生物活性蛋白(例如酶)、其它抗体或抗体片段、合成或天然存在的聚合物、核酸及其片段例如DNA、RNA及其片段、放射性核素(特别地放射性碘化物)、放射性同位素、螯合金属、纳米颗粒和报道基团(例如荧光化合物)、或可通过NMR或ESR光谱分析检测的化合物。当效应分子是聚合物时,其通常可以是合成或天然存在的聚合物,例如任选地取代的直链或支链聚亚烷基、聚亚烯基或聚氧化亚烷基聚合物或分支多糖或未分支多糖,例如同聚或异聚多糖。可存在于上述合成聚合物上的具体的任选取代基包括一个或多个羟基、甲基或甲氧基。合成聚合物的具体示例包括任选地取代的直链或支链聚(乙二醇)、聚(丙二醇)、聚(乙烯醇)或其衍生物,特别地任选地取代的聚(乙二醇)例如甲氧基聚(乙二醇)或其衍生物。具体的天然存在的聚合物包括乳糖、直链淀粉、葡聚糖、糖原或其衍生物。在一个实施方案中,聚合物是白蛋白或其片段,例如人血清白蛋白或其片 段。聚合物与本公开抗MASP2抗体或其抗原结合片段的缀和方式可以通过常规方法实现。
“约”是指处于如本领域的普通技术人员所确定的特定值的可接受误差范围之内,其将部分取决于所述值是如何测量或测定的,即所述测量系统的限制。在特定测定、结果或实施方案的上下文中,除非实施例或说明书其它地方内另有明确说明,否则“约”意指给定数值±5%以内的范围。
