Abstract
Description
本揭露係關於抗FAP抗體、融合蛋白、及其用途。This disclosure relates to anti-FAP antibodies, fusion proteins, and their uses.
本節中的陳述僅提供與本揭露相關的先前技術資訊,且不必然構成先前技術。The statements in this section provide prior art information in connection with this disclosure only and do not necessarily constitute prior art.
TNFSF14(TNF超家族成員14 (TNF superfamily member 14)),亦稱為LIGHT,係TNF超家族的成員,且與淋巴毒素同源。LIGHT係一種可誘導型炎性細胞介素,其結合至TNFRSF14(TNF受體超家族成員14 (TNF receptor superfamily member 14),亦稱為HVEM)、LTβR(淋巴毒素β受體(lymphotoxin beta receptor))、及誘餌受體DcR3。此外,其與單純疱疹病毒醣蛋白D競爭與HVEM受體的結合。HVEM在多種免疫細胞的表面上表現,諸如T細胞、B細胞、NK細胞、及樹突細胞。LIGHT結合至HVEM,且隨後刺激T細胞並促進發炎。另一受體LTβR在上皮、基質、未成熟DC、及其他骨髓細胞的表面上表現,但不在淋巴細胞上表現。LTβR信號傳導之活化對於免疫細胞之募集及組織至關重要,導致淋巴器官及三級淋巴結構(TLS)之發育。TLS由B細胞及T細胞區、樹突細胞、及其他免疫細胞組成,且其等在腫瘤組織中的存在與多種癌症適應症(包括乳癌、肺癌、及結腸癌)中臨床結果的改善相關聯,這表明TLS可能在針對癌症的免疫反應中發揮重要作用。TNFSF14 (TNF superfamily member 14), also known as LIGHT, is a member of the TNF superfamily and is homologous to lymphotoxin. LIGHT is an inducible inflammatory cytokine that binds to TNFRSF14 (TNF receptor superfamily member 14, also known as HVEM), LTβR (lymphotoxin beta receptor), and the pheromone receptor DcR3. Furthermore, it competes with herpes simplex virus glycoprotein D for binding to the HVEM receptor. HVEM is expressed on the surface of various immune cells, such as T cells, B cells, NK cells, and dendritic cells. LIGHT binds to HVEM and subsequently stimulates T cells and promotes inflammation. Another receptor, LTβR, is expressed on the surface of epithelial cells, stromal cells, immature dendritic cells (DCs), and other bone marrow cells, but not on lymphocytes. Activation of LTβR signaling is crucial for the recruitment and organization of immune cells, leading to the development of lymphoid organs and tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS). TLS consists of B cell and T cell regions, dendritic cells, and other immune cells, and their presence in tumor tissue is associated with improved clinical outcomes in various cancer indications, including breast, lung, and colon cancer, suggesting that TLS may play an important role in the immune response against cancer.

This embodiment is not intended to be a detailed catalogue of all different ways in which the invention can be implemented or all features that can be added to the invention. For example, a feature illustrated for one embodiment may be incorporated into other embodiments, and a feature illustrated for a particular embodiment may be deleted from that embodiment. Furthermore, according to this disclosure, many variations and additions to the various embodiments presented herein will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the invention. Therefore, the following description is intended to illustrate certain specific embodiments of the invention, rather than to exhaustively specify all permutations, combinations, and variations thereof.
除非另有定義,否則本文中所使用之所有技術及科學用語具有與本揭露涉及之技術領域中具有通常知識者一般理解者相同的意義。儘管與本文所描述者相似或等效的任何方法及材料可用於測試本揭露的實踐中,但本文描述了較佳材料及方法。在描述及請求保護本揭露時,將使用以下用語。Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure relates. While any methods and materials similar to or equivalent to those described herein may be used in the practice of testing this disclosure, preferred materials and methods are described herein. The following terms will be used in describing and claiming protection for this disclosure.
如本文中所使用,用語「約(about)」當在數值之前時表示該值加上或減去20%、15%、10%、或5%的範圍。As used in this article, the term "about" before a numerical value indicates that the value is added to or subtracted from the range of 20%, 15%, 10%, or 5%.
用語「抗體(antibody)」(可與複數形式互換使用)係能夠透過位於免疫球蛋白分子之可變區中的至少一個抗原識別位點特異性結合至目標(諸如碳水化合物、多核苷酸、脂質、多肽等)之免疫球蛋白分子。如本文中所使用,用語「抗體」不僅包括完整(亦即全長)多株或單株抗體,且亦包括其抗原結合片段(例如Fab、Fab'、F(ab')2、Fv)、單鏈(scFv)、其突變體、包含抗體部份之融合蛋白、人源化抗體、嵌合抗體、雙鏈抗體(diabody)、奈米抗體(nanobody)、線性抗體、單鏈抗體、多特異性抗體(例如雙特異性抗體)、及包含具有所欲特異性之抗原識別位點的免疫球蛋白分子之任何其他經修飾構築體(包括抗體之醣基化變體、抗體之胺基酸序列變體、及經共價修飾之抗體)。抗體包括任何類別的抗體,諸如IgD、IgE、IgG、IgA、或IgM(或其子類),且抗體不需要屬於任何特定類別。取決於其重鏈恆定域的抗體胺基酸序列,免疫球蛋白可分為不同的類別。有五種主要類別的免疫球蛋白:IgA、IgD、IgE、IgG、及IgM,且此等中之數種可進一步分為子類(同型),諸如IgG1、IgG2、IgG3、IgG4、IgA1、及IgA2。將對應於不同類別的免疫球蛋白之重鏈恆定域分別稱為α、δ、ε、γ、及µ。不同類別的免疫球蛋白之次單元結構及三維構形係熟知的。The term "antibody" (which can be used interchangeably with the plural form) refers to an immunoglobulin molecule that can specifically bind to a target (such as carbohydrates, polynucleotides, lipids, polypeptides, etc.) through at least one antigen recognition site located in the variable region of an immunoglobulin molecule. As used herein, the term "antibody" includes not only full-length (i.e., full-length) multi- or single-celled antibodies, but also their antigen-binding fragments (e.g., Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, Fv), single-stranded (scFv), their mutants, fusion proteins containing antibody portions, humanized antibodies, chimeric antibodies, diabody antibodies, nanobody antibodies, linear antibodies, single-stranded antibodies, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), and any other modified constructs of an immunoglobulin molecule containing an antigen recognition site with desired specificity (including glycosylated variants of antibodies, amino acid sequence variants of antibodies, and covalently modified antibodies). Antibodies include any class of antibodies, such as IgD, IgE, IgG, IgA, or IgM (or their subclasses), and antibodies do not need to belong to any particular class. Immunoglobulins can be classified into different classes based on the amino acid sequence of their heavy chain constants. There are five main classes of immunoglobulins: IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM, and several of these can be further subdivided into subclasses (isotypes), such as IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and IgA2. The heavy chain constants corresponding to different classes of immunoglobulins are respectively called α, δ, ε, γ, and µ. The subunit structures and three-dimensional conformations of different classes of immunoglobulins are well known.
在本揭露中,「胺基酸」係指含有胺(-NH
2)及羧基(-COOH)官能基連同對各胺基酸具有特異性的側鏈的有機化合物。胺基酸的名稱以標準的單字母或三字母代碼表示,如下所示:
如本文中所使用,用語「雙特異性抗體(bispecific antibody)」或「雙特異性分子(bispecific molecule)」係指對兩個特定表位表現出雙重結合特異性及親和力的抗體或分子、或其中所有抗體對兩個特定表位表現出雙重結合特異性及親和力的抗體的組成物。As used herein, the terms "bispecific antibody" or "bispecific molecule" refer to an antibody or molecule that exhibits dual binding specificity and affinity for two specific epitopes, or a composition of antibodies in which all antibodies exhibit dual binding specificity and affinity for two specific epitopes.
如本文中所使用,用語「比較物結合劑(comparator binding agent)」係指可用以在本文所述之活性及/或檢定中提供參考水平的適當的相應對照或競爭性結合劑。例如,本文所述之抗FAP抗體之比較物結合劑可係結合至FAP之不同抗體。As used herein, the term "comparator binding agent" refers to an appropriate corresponding or competitive binding agent that can be used to provide a reference level in the activities and/or assays described herein. For example, the comparator binding agent for the anti-FAP antibody described herein could be a different antibody bound to FAP.
「Fc區(Fc region)」(可結晶片段區)或「Fc域(Fc domain)」或「Fc片段(Fc fragment)」係指抗體之重鏈的C端區,其介導免疫球蛋白與宿主組織或因子的結合,包括與位於免疫系統之各種細胞(例如效應細胞)上的Fc受體或與經典補體系統的第一組分(Clq)的結合。因此,Fc區包含排除第一恆定區免疫球蛋白域(例如CH1或CL)之抗體恆定區。在IgG、IgA、及IgD抗體同型中,Fc區包含兩個同一之蛋白質片段,該等蛋白質片段衍生自抗體之兩條重鏈的第二(CH2)恆定域及第三(CH3)恆定域;IgM及IgE Fc區在各多肽鏈中包含三個重鏈恆定域(CH域2至4)。對於IgG,Fc區包含免疫球蛋白域Cγ2及Cγ3及介於Cγ1與Cγ2之間的鉸鏈。儘管免疫球蛋白重鏈Fc區的邊界可能有所不同,但人類IgG重鏈Fc區通常定義為從位置C226或P230的胺基酸殘基(或介於該兩個胺基酸之間的胺基酸)延伸到重鏈的羧基端,其中編號係根據Kabat中的EU索引。人類IgG Fc區的CH2域從約胺基酸231延伸至約胺基酸340,而CH3域定位於Fc區中之CH2域的C端側,亦即,其從IgG的約胺基酸341延伸至約胺基酸447。如本文中所使用,Fc區可係天然序列Fc(包括任何同種異型變體)或變體Fc(例如非天然存在的Fc)。Fc亦可指單離的或在包含Fc之蛋白質多肽的情況下的此區。The "Fc region" (crystallizable fragment region), "Fc domain," or "Fc fragment" refers to the C-terminal region of the antibody heavy chain, which mediates the binding of immunoglobulins to host tissues or factors, including binding to Fc receptors located on various cells of the immune system (e.g., effector cells) or to the first component (Clq) of the classical complement system. Therefore, the Fc region contains an antibody-stationary region excluding the first-stationary immunoglobulin domain (e.g., CH1 or CL). In IgG, IgA, and IgD antibody isotypes, the Fc region contains two identical protein fragments derived from the second (CH2) and third (CH3) constant domains of the two heavy chains of the antibody. The IgM and IgE Fc regions contain three heavy chain constant domains (CH domains 2 to 4) in each polypeptide chain. For IgG, the Fc region contains immunoglobulin domains Cγ2 and Cγ3 and a hinge between Cγ1 and Cγ2. Although the boundaries of the immunoglobulin heavy chain Fc region may vary, the human IgG heavy chain Fc region is generally defined as extending from the amino acid residue at position C226 or P230 (or an amino acid between these two amino acids) to the carboxyl terminus of the heavy chain, where the designation is based on the EU index in Kabat. The CH2 domain of the human IgG Fc region extends from amino acid 231 to amino acid 340, while the CH3 domain is located on the C-terminal side of the CH2 domain in the Fc region, that is, it extends from amino acid 341 to amino acid 447 of IgG. As used herein, the Fc region can be a native sequence Fc (including any allotype variant) or a variant Fc (e.g., a non-naturally occurring Fc). Fc can also refer to this region either singly or in the case of a protein-peptide containing Fc.
當關於肽、多肽、或蛋白質的胺基酸序列使用時,用語「融合(fusion)」係指藉由例如化學鍵結或重組手段將來自二或更多個不同來源的二或更多個胺基酸序列組合成單一胺基酸序列。融合胺基酸序列可由兩個編碼多核苷酸序列的基因重組來產生,且可藉由將含有重組多核苷酸的構築體引入宿主細胞中的方法來表現。因此,如本文中所使用,「融合蛋白(fusion protein)」可指包含來自至少兩種不同蛋白質之蛋白質域的雜合多肽。雖然「融合蛋白」及「免疫細胞介素(immunocytokine)」在本文中可互換使用,但應理解,並非本文所提供之所有融合蛋白均係免疫細胞介素。在一些情況下,融合蛋白亦可指二或更多個肽、多肽、或蛋白質的錯合物(例如結合劑),其中該等肽、多肽、或蛋白質中之至少一者具有將來自二或更多個不同來源的二或更多個胺基酸序列融合成單一胺基酸序列的胺基酸序列。When referring to the amino acid sequences of peptides, polypeptides, or proteins, the term "fusion" means the combination of two or more amino acid sequences from two or more different sources into a single amino acid sequence by means of, for example, chemical bonding or recombination. Fusion amino acid sequences can be generated by recombination of two genes encoding polynucleotide sequences and can be expressed by introducing a construct containing the recombinated polynucleotide into a host cell. Therefore, as used herein, "fusion protein" can refer to a hybrid polypeptide containing protein domains from at least two different proteins. Although "fusion protein" and "immunocytokine" are used interchangeably herein, it should be understood that not all fusion proteins presented herein are immunocytokines. In some cases, a fusion protein may also refer to a complex (e.g., a binder) of two or more peptides, polypeptides, or proteins, wherein at least one of such peptides, polypeptides, or proteins has an amino acid sequence that fuses two or more amino acid sequences from two or more different sources into a single amino acid sequence.
用語「醫藥上可接受之載劑(pharmaceutically acceptable carrier)」係指醫藥組成物中除活性成分之外的對對象無毒的成分。The term "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" refers to a pharmaceutical composition in which the components other than the active ingredient are non-toxic to the target organism.
用語「治療/預防(treating/preventing)」(及其語法變體)係指試圖改變經治療個體中疾病的自然進展,且可係在臨床病理過程期間實施的預防或臨床干預。治療的所欲效果包括但不限於預防疾病的發生或再發、減輕症狀、緩解疾病的任何直接或間接的病理後果、預防轉移、減緩疾病進展的速度、改善或減輕疾病狀態、及緩解或改善預後。在一些實施例中,本揭露的抗體可用於延緩疾病的發展或延緩病症的進展。The term "treating/preventing" (and its grammatical variations) refers to an attempt to alter the natural progression of a disease in a treated individual, and may be prevention or clinical intervention implemented during the clinical pathological process. The desired effects of treatment include, but are not limited to, preventing the onset or recurrence of disease, alleviating symptoms, mitigating any direct or indirect pathological consequences of the disease, preventing metastasis, slowing the rate of disease progression, improving or alleviating the disease state, and alleviating or improving prognosis. In some embodiments, the antibodies disclosed herein may be used to delay the development of disease or slow the progression of symptoms.
序列同一性百分比(%)係定義為候選序列中分別與參考多肽序列或多核苷酸序列中之胺基酸殘基或核酸同一的胺基酸殘基或核酸之百分比,其係在比對序列並引入間隙(若需要)之後以達成最大序列同一性百分比,且當涉及多肽序列時不考慮將任何保守性取代作為序列同一性之一部分。出於判定胺基酸序列同一性百分比之目的的比對可使用公開可得的電腦軟體以各種方式達成,諸如BLAST、BLAST-2、ALIGN、或Megalign (DNASTAR)軟體。例如,可使用NCBI資料庫的BLAST程式來判定同一性。Sequence identity percentage (%) is defined as the percentage of amino acid residues or nucleic acids in a candidate sequence that are identical to those in a reference polypeptide or polynucleotide sequence. It is achieved by aligning sequences and introducing gaps (if necessary) to reach the maximum sequence identity percentage, and when polypeptide sequences are involved, no conservation is considered as part of the sequence identity. Alignments for determining the percentage of amino acid sequence identity can be performed in various ways using publicly available computer software, such as BLAST, BLAST-2, ALIGN, or Megalign (DNASTAR). For example, the BLAST program from the NCBI database can be used to determine identity.
本揭露的其他特徵及優點將從以下詳細描述及圖式、及從申請專利範圍中顯而易見。 FAP 結合劑 Other features and advantages disclosed herein will be apparent from the following detailed description and figures, and from the scope of the patent application. FAP binder
本揭露提供纖維母細胞活化蛋白(fibroblast activation protein, FAP)結合劑(例如抗FAP抗體或其抗原結合片段、其雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白),該等結合劑結合至FAP,且在一些實施例中,特異性結合至FAP中所包含的FAP多肽、FAP多肽片段、FAP肽、或FAP表位。在一些實施例中,諸如人類FAP結合劑的FAP結合劑(例如抗FAP抗體或其抗原結合片段、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白)可結合至哺乳動物(例如人類)細胞(包括FAP表現性細胞,諸如FAP表現性腫瘤細胞)的表面上表現的FAP。在一些實施例中,本文描述結合至FAP(諸如人類FAP或其部分)之FAP結合劑(例如抗FAP抗體或其抗原結合片段、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白)。在一些實施例中,FAP係人類FAP。在一些實施例中,FAP結合劑係人類FAP結合劑(例如抗FAP抗體或其抗原結合片段、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白)。This disclosure provides fibroblast activation protein (FAP) binding agents (e.g., anti-FAP antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof, bispecific antibodies thereof, or fusion proteins thereof) that bind to FAP, and in some embodiments, specifically bind to FAP polypeptides, FAP polypeptide fragments, FAP peptides, or FAP epitopes contained in the FAP. In some embodiments, FAP binding agents such as human FAP binding agents (e.g., anti-FAP antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof, bispecific antibodies thereof, or fusion proteins thereof) can bind to FAP expressed on the surface of mammalian (e.g., human) cells (including FAP-expressing cells, such as FAP-expressing tumor cells). In some embodiments, this document describes FAP binders (e.g., anti-FAP antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof, bispecific antibodies, or fusion proteins thereof) that bind to FAPs (such as human FAPs or portions thereof). In some embodiments, the FAP is a human FAP. In some embodiments, the FAP binder is a human FAP binder (e.g., anti-FAP antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof, bispecific antibodies, or fusion proteins thereof).
在一些實施例中,FAP結合劑(例如抗FAP抗體或其抗原結合片段、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白)結合FAP表現性細胞之FAP表位(例如目標FAP表位)。在一些實施例中,FAP結合劑(例如抗FAP抗體或其抗原結合片段、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白)選擇性地結合FAP表現性細胞之FAP表位,而非競爭性分子中之任一者或組合之表位,諸如促腫瘤細胞表面分子(例如DPPIV)。In some embodiments, FAP binders (e.g., anti-FAP antibodies or their antigen-binding fragments, bispecific antibodies, or their fusion proteins) bind to FAP epitopes (e.g., target FAP epitopes) on FAP-expressing cells. In some embodiments, FAP binders (e.g., anti-FAP antibodies or their antigen-binding fragments, bispecific antibodies, or their fusion proteins) selectively bind to FAP epitopes on FAP-expressing cells, rather than epitopes of any or a combination of competing molecules, such as tumor-promoting cell surface molecules (e.g., DPPIV).
如本文所述之FAP可係具有如 SEQ ID NO: 43(UniProt識別符P51685)所述之胺基酸序列的人類FAP。然而,FAP來自對應於本文所述之組成物及方法中之任何對象之物種的任何物種。例如,如本文所述之FAP可係具有如 SEQ ID NO: 44(NCBI XP_005573377.1)所述之胺基酸序列的食蟹獼猴FAP(恆河獼猴(Macaca mulatta));或具有如 SEQ ID NO: 45(UniProt識別符Uniprot P97321)所述之胺基酸序列的小鼠FAP(家鼷鼠(Mus musculus))。 The FAP described herein may be a human FAP having the amino acid sequence described in SEQ ID NO: 43 (UniProt identifier P51685).

Examples of the numbering systems used herein are Kabat, IMGT, Honegger, and Chothia. However, it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the positions of one or more CDRs along the VH (e.g., CDR1, CDR2, or CDR3) and/or VL (e.g., CDR1, CDR2, or CDR3) regions of an FAP binder (e.g., an anti-FAP antibody or its antigen-binding fragment, a bispecific antibody, or its fusion protein) described herein may vary by one, two, three, four, five, or six amino acid positions, provided that the binding to FAP (e.g., human FAP) is maintained (e.g., substantially maintained, e.g., at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%). For example, in some embodiments, the position of the CDR as defined in Table 3 can be varied by shifting the N-terminal and/or C-terminal boundary of the CDR by one, two, three, four, five, or six amino acids relative to the current CDR position, as long as the binding to FAP (e.g., human FAP) is maintained (e.g., substantially maintained, such as at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%). In other embodiments, the length of one or more CDRs along the VH (e.g., CDR1, CDR2, or CDR3) and/or VL (e.g., CDR1, CDR2, or CDR3) regions of an FAP binder (e.g., an anti-FAP antibody or its antigen-binding fragment, a bispecific antibody, or its fusion protein) described herein may vary (e.g., become shorter or longer) by one, two, three, four, five, or more amino acids, provided that the binding to FAP (e.g., human FAP) is maintained (e.g., substantially maintained, e.g., at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%). For example, in some embodiments, the VH and/or VL CDR1, CDR2, and/or CDR3 described herein may be one, two, three, four, five, or more amino acids shorter than one or more of the CDRs described by any of the sequences described in Tables 6 and 7 , provided that the binding to FAP (e.g., human FAP) is maintained (e.g., substantially maintained, such as at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%). In other embodiments, the VH and/or VL CDR1, CDR2, and/or CDR3 described herein may be longer than one, two, three, four, five, or more amino acids than one or more of the CDRs described by any of the sequences described in Tables 6 and 7 , provided that the binding to FAP (e.g., human FAP) is maintained (e.g., substantially maintained, such as at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%). In other embodiments, the amino termini of the VH and/or VL CDR1, CDR2, and/or CDR3 described herein may be extended by one, two, three, four, five, or more amino acids compared to one or more of the CDRs described in any of the sequences described in Tables 6 and 7 , provided that the binding to FAP (e.g., human FAP) is maintained (e.g., substantially maintained, such as at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%). In other embodiments, the carboxyl terminus of the VH and/or VL CDR1, CDR2, and/or CDR3 described herein may be extended by one, two, three, four, five, or more amino acids compared to one or more of the CDRs described in any of the sequences described in Tables 6 and 7 , provided that the binding to FAP (e.g., human FAP) is maintained (e.g., substantially maintained, such as at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%). In other embodiments, the amino termini of the VH and/or VL CDR1, CDR2, and/or CDR3 described herein may be shortened by one, two, three, four, five, or more amino acids compared to one or more of the CDRs described in any of the sequences described in Tables 6 and 7 , provided that the binding to FAP (e.g., human FAP) is maintained (e.g., substantially maintained, such as at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%). In some embodiments, the carboxyl termini of the VH and/or VL CDR1, CDR2, and/or CDR3 described herein may be shortened by one, two, three, four, five, or more amino acids compared to one or more of the CDRs described in any of the sequences described in Tables 6 and 7 , provided that binding to FAP (e.g., human FAP) is maintained (e.g., substantially maintained, such as at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%). Any method known in the art can be used to determine whether binding to FAP (e.g., human FAP) is maintained, for example, the binding tests and conditions described in the "Examples" section herein. For example, Example 2 described herein describes a test for measuring binding to FAP (e.g., human FAP).

在一些實施例中,抗FAP抗體或其片段(包括人類抗FAP抗體或其片段)的CDR可根據任何適合的編號系統來判定。在一些實施例中,CDR由所屬技術領域中具有通常知識者熟知的Kabat系統定義。Kabat互補決定區(CDR)係基於序列變異性,且係最常用的(Kabat et al., (1971) Ann. NY Acad. Sci. 190:382-391及Kabat, et al., (1991) Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, Fifth Edition, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, NIH Publication No. 91-3242)。Chothia係指結構環的位置(Chothia and Lesk J. Mol. Biol. 196:901-917 (1987))。本文中所使用之編號系統係Kabat、IMGT、Honegger、及Chothia(參見例如 表 7)。 In some embodiments, the CDR of an anti-FAP antibody or fragment thereof (including human anti-FAP antibodies or fragment thereof) can be determined according to any suitable numbering system. In some embodiments, the CDR is defined by the Kabat system, which is well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. The Kabat complementarity-determining region (CDR) is based on sequence variability and is the most commonly used (Kabat et al., (1971) Ann. NY Acad. Sci. 190:382-391 and Kabat, et al., (1991) Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, Fifth Edition, US Department of Health and Human Services, NIH Publication No. 91-3242). Chothia refers to the location of the structural loop (Chothia and Lesk J. Mol. Biol. 196:901-917 (1987)). The numbering systems used in this paper are Kabat, IMGT, Honegger, and Chothia (see Table 7 for example).

In some embodiments, chimeric antibodies are humanized antibodies. Generally, non-human antibodies are humanized to reduce immunity to humans while retaining the specificity and affinity of the parent non-human antibody. Typically, humanized antibodies contain one or more variable domains, wherein the CDR (or a portion thereof) is derived from the non-human antibody, and the FR (or a portion thereof) is derived from the human antibody sequence. Humanized antibodies may also optionally contain at least a portion of a human constant region. In some embodiments, some FR residues in the humanized antibody are substituted with corresponding residues from a non-human antibody (e.g., an antibody from which the CDR residue is derived) to, for example, restore or improve antibody specificity or affinity.

人類抗體可藉由投予免疫原至已經修飾以回應於抗原挑戰而產生完整人類抗體或具有人類可變區之完整抗體的基因轉殖動物來製備。此類動物一般含有全部或部分的人類免疫球蛋白基因座,其置換了內源免疫球蛋白基因座,或其係存在於染色體外或隨機整合至動物之染色體中。在此類基因轉殖小鼠中,通常已將內源免疫球蛋白基因座去活化。關於用於自基因轉殖動物獲得人類抗體之方法的綜述,參見Lonberg, Nat. Biotech. 23:1117-1125 (2005)。亦參見例如美國專利第6,075,181及6,150,584號(描述XENOMOUSE ™技術);美國專利第5,770,429號(描述HUMAB ®技術);美國專利第7,041,870號(描述K-M MOUSE ®技術)、及美國專利申請公開案第US 2007/0061900號(描述VELOCIMOUSE ®技術)。來自由此類動物所產生之完整抗體的人類可變區可經進一步修飾,例如藉由與不同的人類恆定區組合。 Human antibodies can be prepared by administering an immunogen to genetically modified animals that produce complete human antibodies in response to antigenic challenges or complete antibodies with human variable regions. These animals typically contain all or part of the human immunoglobulin loci, which replace endogenous immunoglobulin loci, or are located extrachromosomally or randomly integrated into the animal's chromosomes. In these genetically modified mice, the endogenous immunoglobulin loci are usually deactivated. For a review of methods for obtaining human antibodies from genetically modified animals, see Lonberg, Nat. Biotech. 23:1117-1125 (2005). See also, for example, U.S. Patents 6,075,181 and 6,150,584 (describing XENOMOUSE ™ technology); U.S. Patent 5,770,429 (describing HUMAB® technology); U.S. Patent 7,041,870 (describing KM MOUSE® technology); and U.S. Patent Application Publication No. US 2007/0061900 (describing VELOCIMOUSE® technology). The human variable region of the intact antibody produced by such animals can be further modified, for example, by combining it with different human constant regions.

Human myeloma and mouse-human heterologous myeloma cell lines used to produce human monoclonal antibodies have been described. (See, for example, Kozbor J. Immunol., 133: 3001 (1984); Brodeur et al ., Monoclonal Antibody Production Techniques and Applications, pp. 51-63 (1987); and Boerner et al ., J. Immunol., 147: 86 (1991).) Human antibodies produced via human B-cell fusion tumor technology are also described in Li et al ., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 103:3557-3562 (2006). Additional methods include, for example, those described in U.S. Patent No. 7,189,826 (description of monoclonal human IgM antibodies from fusion tumor cell lines) and Ni, Xiandai Mianyixue, 26(4):265-268 (2006) (description of human-human fusion tumors). The human fusion tumor technique (Trioma technique) is also described in Vollmers and Brandlein, Histology and Histopathology, 20(3):927-937 (2005) and Vollmers and Brandlein, Methods and Findings in Experimental and Clinical Pharmacology, 27(3): 185-91 (2005).
人類抗體亦可藉由單離選自人源噬菌體展示庫之可變域序列來產生。然後可將此類可變域序列與所欲之人類恆定域組合。用於從抗體庫選出人類抗體之技術係描述於下。Human antibodies can also be generated by singling variable domain sequences selected from a human phage display library. These variable domain sequences can then be combined with desired human constant domains. The techniques for selecting human antibodies from an antibody library are described below.
抗體可藉由針對具有所欲一或多種活性之抗體來篩檢組合庫而單離。例如,關於產生噬菌體展示庫及針對擁有所欲結合特徵之抗體來篩檢此類庫,各種方法係所屬技術領域中已知的。此類方法係綜述於例如Hoogenboom et al. in Methods in Molecular Biology 178: 1-37 (O'Brien et al., ed., Human Press, Totowa, NJ, 2001)中且進一步描述於例如McCafferty et al, Nature 348:552-554 (1990);Clackson et al, Nature 352: 624-628 (1991);Marks et al, J. Mol. Biol 222: 581-597(1992);Marks and Bradbury, in Methods in Molecular Biology 248: 161-175 (Lo, ed., Human Press, Totowa, NJ, 2003);Sidhu et al, J. Mol. Biol. 338(2) (2004): 299-310;Lee et al., J. Mol. Biol. 340(5): 1073-1093 (2004);Fellouse, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 101(34): 12467-12472 (2004);及Lee et al, (2004) J. Immunol. Methods 284(1-2): 119-132、及PCT申請案WO 99/10494。 Antibodies can be isolated by screening a library of combinations for antibodies that have one or more desired activities. For example, various methods for generating phage display libraries and screening such libraries for antibodies that have desired binding characteristics are known in the relevant technical field. Such methods are summarized in, for example, Hoogenboom et al . in Methods in Molecular Biology 178: 1-37 (O'Brien et al ., ed., Human Press, Totowa, NJ, 2001) and further described in, for example, McCafferty et al ., Nature 348:552-554 (1990); Clackson et al. , Nature 352: 624-628 (1991); Marks et al ., J. Mol. Biol 222: 581-597 (1992); Marks and Bradbury, in Methods in Molecular Biology 248: 161-175 (Lo, ed., Human Press, Totowa, NJ, 2003); Sidhu et al ., J. Mol. Biol. 338(2) (2004): 299-310; Lee et al ., J. Mol. Biol. 340(5): 1073-1093 (2004); Fellouse, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 101(34): 12467-12472 (2004); and Lee et al ., (2004) J. Immunol. Methods 284(1-2): 119-132, and PCT application WO 99/10494.
在某些噬菌體展示方法中,VH及VL基因庫係分開地藉由聚合酶鏈反應(polymerase chain reaction, PCR)來選殖並隨機重組於噬菌體庫中,然後可針對抗原結合噬菌體進行篩檢,如描述於Winter et al., Ann. Rev. Immunol., 12:433-455 (1994)。噬菌體一般展示抗體片段,以單鏈Fv (scFv)片段或以Fab片段。來自固定化來源之庫提供對免疫原具有高親和力之抗體而無需構築融合瘤。替代地,可對天然庫(例如,來自人類)進行選殖,以對廣泛範圍的非自體抗原及自體抗原提供單一抗體來源而無需任何免疫化,如由Griffiths et al., EMBO J 12:725-734 (1993)所述。最後,天然庫亦可藉由對來自幹細胞之未經重排V基因段進行選殖,並使用含有隨機序列之PCR引子編碼高度可變CDR3區且在體外達成重排來製造,如由Hoogenboom and Winter, J. Mol. Biol, 227:381-388 (1992)所述。描述人類抗體噬菌體庫之專利公開案包括例如:美國專利第5,750,373號、及美國專利公開案第2005/0079574、2005/0119455、2005/0266000、2007/0117126、2007/0160598、2007/0237764、2007/0292936、及2009/0002360號。 In some phage display methods, VH and VL gene libraries are separately selected and randomly recombined into the phage library via polymerase chain reaction (PCR), allowing for screening of antigen-binding phages, as described in Winter et al ., Ann. Rev. Immunol., 12:433-455 (1994). Phages typically display antibody fragments, either as single-stranded Fv (scFv) fragments or as Fab fragments. Libraries derived from immobilized sources provide antibodies with high affinity for immunogens without the need to construct fusion tumors. Alternatively, natural libraries (e.g., from humans) can be selected to provide a single source of antibodies against a wide range of non-autoantigens and autoantigens without any immunization, as described by Griffiths et al ., EMBO J 12:725-734 (1993). Finally, natural libraries can also be produced by selecting unrearranged V gene segments from stem cells and using PCR primers containing random sequences to encode highly variable CDR3 regions and achieve rearrangement in vitro, as described by Hoogenboom and Winter, J. Mol. Biol, 227:381-388 (1992). Patent publications describing human antibody phage libraries include, for example, U.S. Patent No. 5,750,373, and U.S. Patent Publications Nos. 2005/0079574, 2005/0119455, 2005/0266000, 2007/0117126, 2007/0160598, 2007/0237764, 2007/0292936, and 2009/0002360.

In some embodiments, the bispecific antibody described herein comprises one or more light chains. Each light chain may have a variable domain (VL) at one end and a constant domain (CL) at the other end; the constant domain of the light chain aligns with the first constant domain (CH1) of the heavy chain, and the variable domain of the light chain aligns with the variable domain of the heavy chain. In some embodiments, the light chain comprises a κ light chain or a λ light chain. Bispecific antibodies (such as κ or λ antibodies) may be prepared using any of a variety of techniques recognized in the respective fields of art, including those disclosed in WO 2012/023053, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
在一些實施例中,具有所欲結合特異性的抗體可變域可連接至免疫球蛋白恆定域序列以形成雙特異性抗體。在一些實施例中,與免疫球蛋白重鏈恆定域融合,該免疫球蛋白重鏈恆定域包含鉸鏈區、CH2區、及CH3區的至少一部分。在一些實施例中,含有輕鏈結合所需位點的第一重鏈恆定區(CH1)存在於融合體中的至少一者中。編碼免疫球蛋白重鏈融合體及(若為所欲)免疫球蛋白輕鏈的DNA可插入到單獨的表現載體中,且可共轉染到適合的宿主生物體中。In some embodiments, an antibody variable domain having the desired binding specificity may be linked to an immunoglobulin constant domain sequence to form a bispecific antibody. In some embodiments, fusion with an immunoglobulin heavy chain constant domain comprising at least a portion of a hinge region, a CH2 region, and a CH3 region is present. In some embodiments, a first heavy chain constant region (CH1) containing the site required for light chain binding is present in at least one of the fusion bodies. The DNA encoding the immunoglobulin heavy chain fusion body and (if desired) the immunoglobulin light chain may be inserted into a separate expression vector and may be co-transfected into a suitable host organism.
在一些實施例中,本文構築體中的一對抗體分子之間的界面經工程改造以使從重組細胞培養物中回復的異二聚體的百分比最大化。在該方法中,來自第一抗體分子界面的一或多個小胺基酸側鏈經較大的側鏈置換以形成突起或鈕(例如酪胺酸或色胺酸)。藉由用較小的胺基酸側鏈取代大的胺基酸側鏈,在第二抗體分子的界面上建立與(多條)大側鏈相同或相似尺寸的補償性腔或孔(例如絲胺酸、蘇胺酸、纈胺酸、或丙胺酸)。這提供了一種相對於其他非所要的終產物(諸如同二聚體)用於增加異二聚體產率的機制。In some embodiments, the interface between a pair of antibody molecules in this construct is engineered to maximize the percentage of heterodimers recovered from recombinant cell cultures. In this approach, one or more small amino acid side chains from the interface of the first antibody molecule are replaced by larger side chains to form protrusions or buttons (e.g., tyrosine or tryptophan). By replacing the large amino acid side chains with smaller ones, compensating cavities or pores (e.g., serine, threonine, volamine, or alanine) of the same or similar size as the (multiple) large side chains are created at the interface of the second antibody molecule. This provides a mechanism for increasing heterodimer yield relative to other undesirable end products (such as isomers).
文獻中已經描述了從抗體功能片段產生雙特異性抗體的技術。例如,可使用化學鍵聯來製備雙特異性抗體。雙特異性抗體可用作選擇性固定酶的試劑。Techniques for generating bispecific antibodies from antibody functional fragments have been described in the literature. For example, chemical bonding can be used to prepare bispecific antibodies. Bispecific antibodies can be used as reagents for selectively immobilizing enzymes.
亦描述了直接從重組細胞培養物中製備及單離雙特異性抗體功能片段的各種技術。例如,已經使用白胺酸拉鍊產生了雙特異性抗體。來自Fos及Jun蛋白的白胺酸拉鍊肽藉由基因融合與兩種不同抗體的Fab'部分連接。抗體同二聚體在鉸鏈區被還原形成單體,且接著重新氧化形成抗體異二聚體。該方法亦可用於抗體同二聚體的產生。「雙鏈抗體」技術為製備雙特異性抗體功能片段提供替代的機制。功能片段包含藉由連接子連接至輕鏈可變域(VL)的重鏈可變域(VH),該連接子太短而不允許同一鏈上的兩個域之間配對。因此,一個功能片段的VH及VL域被強制與另一功能片段的互補VL及VH域配對,藉以形成兩個目標結合位點。製備雙特異性抗體功能片段的另一種策略包括使用單鏈Fv (sFv)二聚體。Various techniques for preparing and isolating bispecific antibody functional fragments directly from recombinant cell cultures are also described. For example, bispecific antibodies have been generated using leucine zippers. Leucine zipper peptides from Fos and Jun proteins are linked to the Fab' moieties of two different antibodies via gene fusion. The antibody homodimer is reduced to a monomer in the hinge region and then re-oxidized to form an antibody heterodimer. This method can also be used for the generation of antibody homodimers. The "bichain antibody" technique provides an alternative mechanism for preparing bispecific antibody functional fragments. The functional fragment includes a heavy chain variable domain (VH) linked to a light chain variable domain (VL) by a linker that is too short to allow pairing between the two domains on the same chain. Therefore, the VH and VL domains of one functional fragment are forced to pair with complementary VL and VH domains of another functional fragment to form two target binding sites. Another strategy for preparing bispecific antibody functional fragments involves using single-chain Fv (sFv) dimers.
考慮了具有多於兩價的抗體。例如,可製備三特異性抗體。例示性雙特異性抗體可結合兩個不同的表位,其中至少一個表位源自本文所述之目標。替代地,免疫球蛋白分子的目標臂可與結合至TACR(諸如本文所述之TACR)的臂組合。雙特異性抗體亦可用以將細胞毒性劑引導至表現特定蛋白質的細胞。此等抗體可具有目標結合臂及結合細胞毒性劑的臂,諸如本文所述者。Antibodies with more than two valents are considered. For example, trispecific antibodies can be prepared. An illustrative bispecific antibody may bind to two distinct epitopes, at least one of which originates from the target described herein. Alternatively, the target arm of an immunoglobulin molecule may be combined with an arm that binds to a TACR (such as the TACR described herein). Bispecific antibodies can also be used to direct cytotoxic agents to cells expressing specific proteins. Such antibodies may have a target-binding arm and an arm that binds to a cytotoxic agent, as described herein.
已使用若干策略來產生此類多特異性分子(例如雙特異性分子、三特異性分子),諸如抗體功能片段的化學交聯、強制異二聚化、四源雜交瘤技術、經由多肽連接子之抗體功能片段的融合、及單域抗體的使用。重組DNA技術的可用性導致了多種雙特異性抗體形式的產生。連接子及突變經常被引入抗體之不同區中,以強制異二聚體形成或將不同的結合部份連接成單一分子。Several strategies have been used to generate such multispecific molecules (e.g., bispecific and trispecific molecules), such as chemical crosslinking of antibody functional fragments, forced heterodimerization, tetralogous hybridization, fusion of antibody functional fragments via polypeptide linkers, and the use of single-domain antibodies. The availability of recombinant DNA technology has led to the generation of various forms of bispecific antibodies. Linkers and mutations are often introduced into different regions of the antibody to force heterodimerization or to link different binding sites into a single molecule.
在一些實施例中,雙特異性抗體或其抗原結合片段在FAP抗原結合部份之N端包括衍生自免疫球蛋白之Fc片段。在一些實施例中,Fc片段係衍生自IgG1、IgG2、IgG3、或IgG4,可選地,Fc片段係衍生自IgG4。在一些實施例中,Fc片段包括突變S228P。在一些實施例中,Fc片段包括選自由下列所組成之群組的一或多個修飾:鈕扣、DDKK、CH3之靜電轉向、DuoBody、SEEDbodies、cFAE、XmAb、Azymetric、及BEAT ®。在一些實施例中,Fc片段包括修飾鈕扣及/或DDKK。 In some embodiments, the bispecific antibody or its antigen-binding fragment includes an Fc fragment derived from an immunoglobulin at the N-terminus of the FAP antigen-binding region. In some embodiments, the Fc fragment is derived from IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, or IgG4, and optionally, the Fc fragment is derived from IgG4. In some embodiments, the Fc fragment includes the mutant S228P. In some embodiments, the Fc fragment includes one or more modifications selected from the group consisting of: button, DDKK, electrostatic switching of CH3, DuoBody, SEEDbodies, cFAE, XmAb, Azymetric, and BEAT® . In some embodiments, the Fc fragment includes modified button and/or DDKK.
鈕扣突變可藉由在CH3域中引入突變來改變接觸界面,從而強制兩條不同的IgG重鏈配對。在一條鏈上引入具有大側鏈的胺基酸,以形成「鈕」。相反,大的胺基酸經具有短側鏈的胺基酸置換,從而在另一CH3域中建立「孔」。藉由共表現此等兩條重鏈,可觀察到相對於同二聚體形成(「孔-孔」或「鈕-鈕」)之大於90%的異二聚體形成(「鈕-孔」)。基於人類IgG及人類IgA序列的經工程改造之股交換工程改造域(strand- exchange engineered domain, SEED)人類CH3域亦可導致形成可攜帶兩種不同特異性的異二聚體分子。最近對「鈕扣」方法進行改善;「CrossMab」已描述於WO 2009/080253 Al。除了「鈕扣」突變之外,該方法亦涉及輕鏈及重鏈域中之一些者的交換。DDKK係介導靜電轉向效應的修飾,其用以增強抗體Fc異二聚體形成,特別如Gunasekaran et al., (J. Biol. Chem. 2010,19637-19646)所述。因此,在一些實施例中,本文提供一或多個異二聚化修飾。Button mutations can alter the contact interface by introducing a mutation into the CH3 domain, thereby forcing the pairing of two distinct IgG heavy chains. An amino acid with a large sidechain is introduced into one chain to form a "button." Conversely, a large amino acid is replaced by an amino acid with a short sidechain, thus creating a "pore" in the other CH3 domain. By co-expressing these two heavy chains, greater than 90% heterodimer formation ("button-pore") can be observed relative to homodimer formation ("pore-pore" or "button-button"). Engineered strand-exchange-engineered domains (SEED) of the human CH3 domain, based on human IgG and human IgA sequences, can also lead to the formation of heterodimer molecules capable of carrying two different specificities. Recent improvements have been made to the "button" method; "CrossMab" has been described in WO 2009/080253 A1. In addition to the "button" mutation, this method also involves the exchange of some components in the light and heavy chain domains. DDKK is a modification that mediates electrostatic switching effects to enhance the formation of antibody Fc heterodimers, particularly as described by Gunasekaran et al., (J. Biol. Chem. 2010, 19637-19646). Therefore, in some embodiments, this paper provides one or more heterodimerization modifications.
在一些實施例中,第二結合部份結合及/或活化第二目標。在一些實施例中,第二目標係腫瘤相關細胞受體(tumor associated cell receptor, TACR)。TACR可在腫瘤細胞上或在與腫瘤細胞或腫瘤微環境相關聯之免疫細胞上表現。在一些實施例中,第二結合部份結合TACR。在一些實施例中,第二結合部份活化TACR。在一些實施例中,TACR包含LTβR、HER2、PDL-1、PD-1、EGFR、VEGFR、VEGF、CCR8、OX-40、418B、血管生成素-2、IL-4Ra、BCMA、Blys、BTNO2、C5、CD122、CD13、CD133、CD137、CD138、CD16a、CD19、CD20、CD22、CD27、CD28、CD3、CD30、CD33、CD38、CD40、CD47、CD-8、CEA、CGPR/CGRPR、CSPGs、CTLA4、CTLA-4、DLL-4、EpCAM、因子IXa、因子X、GITR、GP130、Her3、HSG、ICOS、IGFl、IGFl/2、IGF-lR、IGF2、IGFR、IL-1、IL- 12、IL-12p40、IL-13、IL-l 7A、IL-1~、IL-23、IL-5、IL-6、IL-6R、Lag-3、LAG3、MAG、Met、NgR、NogoA、OMGp、OX40、PDGFR、PSMA、RGMA、RGMB、SARS-CoV-2、Te38、TIM-3、TNF、TNFa、TROP-2、TWEAK、或TRAIL。In some embodiments, the second binding portion binds to and/or activates a second target.

如所描述的,雙特異性抗體或其抗原結合片段可觸發用於癌相關纖維母細胞(cancer-associated fibroblast, CAF)重編程的LTβR信號傳導。不受理論的束縛,據信FAP以順式或反式方式接合雙特異性抗體或其抗原結合片段將增強LTβR路徑活化的效率。As described, bispecific antibodies or their antigen-binding fragments can trigger LTβR signaling for cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF) reprogramming. Regardless of theoretical constraints, it is believed that FAP binding to bispecific antibodies or their antigen-binding fragments in either a cis or trans manner will enhance the efficiency of LTβR pathway activation.
LTβR信號傳導對於驅動第二淋巴器官(2nd lymphoid organ, SLO)的形成至關重要,且在一些情況下,對於驅動三級淋巴結構(TLS)的形成亦至關重要。本揭露旨在觸發FAP+CAF(癌相關纖維母細胞)中的LTβR信號傳導,且將其重新程式化為TLS促進表型,因此增強抗腫瘤免疫性。亦據信,在具有高度特異性LTβR靶向的腫瘤基質細胞上表現的交聯FAP選擇性地靶向LTβR且將LTβR促效作用專門限制在腫瘤微環境(腫瘤內皮及癌相關纖維母細胞)中,藉以減少潛在的副作用。LTβR signaling is crucial for driving the formation of the second lymphoid organ (SLO) and, in some cases, for driving the formation of tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS). This disclosure aims to trigger LTβR signaling in FAP+CAF (cancer-associated fibroblasts) and reprogram it into a TLS-promoting phenotype, thereby enhancing antitumor immunity. It is also believed that cross-linked FAPs expressed on tumor stromal cells with high LTβR targeting selectively target LTβR and specifically restrict the LTβR-promoting effect to the tumor microenvironment (tumor endothelial cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts), thereby reducing potential side effects.

FAP表現的偵測通常涉及將生物樣本(個體的腫瘤、細胞、組織、或體液)與本文所提供之融合蛋白的一或多個FAP結合部分(可選地接合至可偵測部份)接觸,且偵測樣本是否呈現FAP陽性,或樣本與對照樣本相比表現是否改變(例如降低或增加)。本文進一步描述其他可偵測劑及診斷劑,例如作為可偵測標記及/或診斷標記。 效應細胞 Detection of FAP performance typically involves contacting a biological sample (an individual's tumor, cells, tissue, or body fluid) with one or more FAP-binding portions of the fusion protein described herein (optionally binding to a detectable portion), and determining whether the sample is FAP-positive or whether its performance has changed (e.g., decreased or increased) compared to a control sample. This document further describes other detectable and diagnostic agents, for example, as detectable and/or diagnostic markers. Effective Cells
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之融合蛋白的FAP結合部分與效應細胞連接、接合、或融合。在一些實施例中,效應細胞包含本文所述之免疫細胞(例如NK細胞、樹突、B細胞、巨噬細胞、及類似者)或表現嵌合抗原受體之T細胞(CAR T細胞),其經工程改造用於趨化因子受體或FAP靶向。最近,CAR T細胞因其臨床成功而受到關注,且加快了FDA的批准,請參閱WO2020102240,該文獻全部併入本文中。在CAR T細胞方法中,從患者血液中收集T細胞,且接著進行基因工程改造,以表現對腫瘤細胞上存在的抗原具有特異性的CAR。接著向同一患者重新投予此等經工程改造T細胞。一旦注射,CAR T細胞識別目標細胞上的標靶抗原,誘導目標細胞死亡。因此,CAR T細胞構成了諸如腫瘤治療的醫療用途的新模態。嵌合抗原受體(chimeric antigen receptor, CAR)係一種經基因工程改造受體,其經設計以靶向特定抗原,例如腫瘤抗原。例如,該靶向可導致針對腫瘤的細胞毒性,使得表現CAR之CAR T細胞可經由特定的腫瘤抗原靶向並殺滅腫瘤。根據本揭露,如本文所述之提供用於FAP識別之融合蛋白的FAP結合部分可用以工程改造CAR T細胞以特異性識別FAP表現性細胞。本文涵蓋的CAR可包含a)識別區,例如衍生自所提供之抗FAP或抗趨化因子受體抗體的單鏈片段可變(scFv)區,用於識別及結合至由目標細胞表現的FAP;及b)活化信號傳導域,例如T細胞的CD3鏈,其可用作CAR中的T細胞活化信號。In some embodiments, the FAP-binding portion of the fusion protein provided herein is linked, conjugated, or fused with effector cells. In some embodiments, the effector cells comprise immune cells described herein (e.g., NK cells, dendritic cells, B cells, macrophages, and similar cells) or T cells expressing chimeric antigen receptors (CAR T cells) engineered for chemokine receptor or FAP targeting. Recently, CAR T cells have gained attention due to their clinical success and accelerated FDA approval; see WO2020102240, which is incorporated herein in its entirety. In the CAR T cell approach, T cells are collected from a patient's blood and then genetically engineered to express a CAR specific for antigens present on tumor cells. These engineered T cells are then re-injected into the same patient. Once injected, the CAR T cells recognize the target antigen on the target cells, inducing the death of the target cells. Therefore, CAR T cells constitute a new paradigm for medical applications such as cancer treatment. A chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) is a genetically engineered receptor designed to target specific antigens, such as tumor antigens. For example, this targeting can lead to tumor-specific cytotoxicity, allowing CAR T cells expressing CARs to target and kill tumors via specific tumor antigens. According to this disclosure, the FAP-binding portion of the fusion protein provided herein for FAP recognition can be used to engineer CAR T cells to specifically recognize FAP-expressing cells. The CARs covered in this article may include a) a recognition region, such as a single-strand fragment variable (scFv) region derived from the provided anti-FAP or anti-chemofacilitator receptor antibody, for recognizing and binding to FAP expressed by the target cell; and b) an activation signaling domain, such as the CD3 chain of T cells, which can be used as a T cell activation signal in the CAR.
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之CAR包含共刺激域(例如CD137、CD28、或CD134)以在體內實現T細胞的延長活化。共刺激域的添加增強了含有CAR的T細胞的體內增殖及存活,且初始臨床數據已顯示此類構築體在治療疾病(諸如癌症)中係有前景的治療劑。在一些實施例中,本文所提供之CAR T細胞可用於本文所述之方法中。例如,此類CAR T細胞可用以治療具有局部或全身異常存在的表現FAP之細胞(諸如腫瘤相關T細胞)的任何疾病。 異源蛋白質 In some embodiments, the CARs provided herein include co-stimulatory domains (e.g., CD137, CD28, or CD134) to achieve T cell prolongation and activation in vivo. The addition of co-stimulatory domains enhances the in vivo proliferation and survival of CAR-containing T cells, and initial clinical data have shown that such constructs are promising therapeutic agents for diseases such as cancer. In some embodiments, the CAR T cells provided herein can be used in the methods described herein. For example, such CAR T cells can be used to treat any disease with FAP-like cells (such as tumor-associated T cells) exhibiting local or systemic abnormalities. Heterologous Proteins
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之融合蛋白的FAP結合部分與異源蛋白質或多肽(或其片段,例如與(例如約10、約20、約30、約40、約50、約60、約70、約80、約90、或約100個胺基酸的)多肽連接、接合、或融合。在一些實施例中,異源蛋白質與本揭露之融合蛋白的FAP結合部分的連接、接合、及/或融合產生融合蛋白,因此,本文提供融合蛋白以及其用途。在一些實施例中,本文描述融合蛋白,其包含融合蛋白之FAP結合部分之抗原結合片段(例如抗FAP抗體、FAP抗原結合部份、或包含FAP抗原結合部份之雙特異性抗體),包括本文描述的人類FAP結合劑(例如包含VH及/或VL之CDR1、CDR2、及/或CDR3)及異源蛋白質、多肽、或肽。在一些實施例中,與融合蛋白之FAP結合部分(例如抗FAP抗體、FAP抗原結合部份、或包含FAP抗原結合部份之雙特異性抗體)連接的異源蛋白質、多肽、或肽可用於將FAP結合劑靶向特定細胞(例如表現FAP之細胞,包括腫瘤細胞)。在一些實施例中,異源蛋白質係信號肽。在一些實施例中,異源蛋白質係細胞穿透肽。在一些實施例中,異源蛋白質係次細胞定位信號。 細胞裂解劑 In some embodiments, the FAP-binding portion of the fusion protein provided herein is linked, conjugated, or fused with a heterologous protein or polypeptide (or fragment thereof, such as with a polypeptide of about 10, about 20, about 30, about 40, about 50, about 60, about 70, about 80, about 90, or about 100 amino acids). In some embodiments, the linking, conjugation, and/or fusion of a heterologous protein with the FAP-binding portion of the fusion protein disclosed herein produces a fusion protein; therefore, fusion proteins and their uses are provided herein. In some embodiments, fusion proteins are described herein that include an antigen-binding fragment (e.g., an anti-FAP antibody, an FAP antigen-binding portion, or a fragment containing an FAP antigen-binding portion) of the fusion protein. Bispecific antibodies, including human FAP conjugates described herein (e.g., CDR1, CDR2, and/or CDR3 comprising VH and/or VL) and heterologous proteins, peptides, or peptides. In some embodiments, the heterologous protein, peptide, or peptide linked to the FAP-binding portion of the fusion protein (e.g., an anti-FAP antibody, an FAP antigen-binding portion, or a bispecific antibody comprising an FAP antigen-binding portion) can be used to target the FAP conjugate to specific cells (e.g., cells expressing FAP, including tumor cells). In some embodiments, the heterologous protein is a signaling peptide. In some embodiments, the heterologous protein is a cell-penetrating peptide. In some embodiments, the heterologous protein is a subcellular localization signal. Cell lysing agents
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之融合蛋白之FAP結合部分係與一或多種細胞裂解劑連接、接合、或融合。如本文中所使用,細胞裂解劑係降低一或多種細胞之增殖能力的部份。當細胞變得不太能夠增殖時,例如,因為細胞經歷細胞凋亡或以其他方式死亡,細胞不能進行細胞週期且/或不能分裂,細胞分化等,細胞具有降低的增殖能力。非限制性例示性細胞裂解劑包括但不限於放射性同位素、光敏劑(photosensitizer, PS)、細胞毒素、及化學治療劑。In some embodiments, the FAP-binding portion of the fusion protein provided herein is linked, bound, or fused with one or more cytolytic agents. As used herein, a cytolytic agent is a portion that reduces the proliferative capacity of one or more cells. Cells have reduced proliferative capacity when they become less capable of proliferating, for example, because they undergo apoptosis or other forms of death, are unable to carry out cell cycles and/or divide, or differentiate. Non-limiting illustrative cytolytic agents include, but are not limited to, radioisotopes, photosensitizers (PS), cytotoxins, and chemotherapeutic agents.
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之融合蛋白之FAP結合部分可與一或多種放射性同位素(本文亦稱為放射性核種)連接、融合、或接合。例示性放射性核種包括:β粒子、α粒子、或俄歇電子發射體。適合的β發射體係例如釔-90、碘-131、鍶-89-氯化物、鎦-177、鈥-166、錸-186、錸-188、銅-67、鉕-149、金-199、及銠-105。適合的俄歇電子發射體例如係溴-77、銦-111、碘-123、及碘-125。適合的α發射體例如係釷-227、鉍-213、鐳-223、錒-225、及砈-211。In some embodiments, the FAP-binding portion of the fusion protein provided herein may be linked, fused with, or conjugated to one or more radioisotopes (also referred to herein as radionuclides). Exemplary radionuclides include beta particles, alpha particles, or Auger electron emitters. Suitable beta emitters include, for example, yttrium-90, iodine-131, strontium-89-chloride, indium-177, holmium-166, rhenium-186, rhenium-188, copper-67, argon-149, gold-199, and rhodium-105. Suitable Auger electron emitters include, for example, bromine-77, indium-111, iodine-123, and iodine-125. Suitable alpha emitters include thorium-227, bismuth-213, radium-223, azurium-225, and pyroxene-211.
例如,釷-227 (227Th)可與八齒3,2-羥基吡啶酮(3,2-HOPO)螯合劑有效地錯合,該八齒3,2-羥基吡啶酮(3,2-HOPO)螯合劑接合至根據本揭露之融合蛋白的FAP結合部分,產生高度穩定的標靶釷-227接合物(TTC)。標靶釷接合物(TTC)包含三個主要建構組元。錒-227的β粒子衰變後,第一建構組元、發射α-粒子的放射性核種227Th以離子交換層析法純化。第二建構組元係螯合劑,諸如鐵載蛋白衍生的螯合劑,其含有在利用用於生物接合的羧酸連接子官能化的對稱多胺支架上帶有四個3-羥基-N-甲基-2-吡啶酮部份的HOPO基團。與靶向部份的接合可透過與離胺酸殘基的ε-胺基形成醯胺鍵來實現。此等八齒3,2-HOPO螯合劑可用227Th有效地標記,在環境條件下具有高產率、純度、及穩定性。與通常需要加熱的四氮雜環十二烷-1,4,7,10-四乙酸(DOTA)螯合劑相比,HOPO螯合劑因為在環境溫度下有效的放射性標記及形成的錯合物的高穩定性而具有優越性。第三建構組元係靶向部份,亦即本文所提供之融合蛋白之FAP結合部分。For example, thorium-227 (227Th) can be effectively chelated with an octadentate 3,2-hydroxypyridinone (3,2-HOPO) chelator, which binds to the FAP-binding portion of the fusion protein according to the present disclosure, to produce a highly stable targeted thorium-227 conjugate (TTC). The targeted thorium conjugate (TTC) comprises three main building blocks. After the β-particle decay of thorium-227, the first building block, the radioactive nucleus 227Th emitting α-particles, is purified by ion exchange chromatography. The second building block is a chelating agent, such as a ferroprotein-derived chelating agent, containing four HOPO groups on a symmetrical polyamine scaffold functionalized with carboxylic acid linkers for bioconjugation. Binding to the target site is achieved by forming an amide bond with the ε-amino group of the lysine residue. These octanoic 3,2-HOPO chelating agents can be efficiently labeled with 227Th, exhibiting high yield, purity, and stability under ambient conditions. Compared to tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) chelating agents, which typically require heating, HOPO chelating agents are superior due to their efficient radiolabeling at ambient temperatures and the high stability of the resulting complexes. The third building block is the targeting portion, namely the FAP-binding portion of the fusion protein presented in this paper.
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之融合蛋白之FAP結合部分可與一或多種光敏劑(PS)連接、融合、或接合。光動力療法(photodynamic therapy, PDT)係一種非侵入性治療,其涉及PS在實體瘤中的積累,隨後局部遞送正確波長的光以引起PS的活化,這在氧存在下導致活性含氧物(reactive oxygen species, ROS)的原位產生,對細胞組分造成損傷,且最終導致壞死或細胞凋亡。PDT係腫瘤學中有前景的工具,但經常受到光敏劑靶向不足引起的副作用的限制。因此,本揭露涵蓋PS與腫瘤特異性結合劑(例如抗體)的接合。本文亦提供抗原結合Ab片段(例如Fab或scFv片段)的用途,因為在一些實施例中,抗原結合片段保留與全尺寸抗體相同的結合特異性,但因為其較小的尺寸而更有效地穿透腫瘤塊,且因為缺乏Fc域而更有效地從循環中清除。在一些實施例中,提供了用於光動力療法及光診斷領域的卟啉,且係生物醫學科學之此等領域中最突出的光敏劑類別中的一者(Sandland J, Boyle RW. Bioconjug Chem. 30(4):975-993 (2019))。在一些實施例中,光敏劑係四吡咯大環化合物。在一些實施例中,四吡咯大環化合物係卟啉、二氫卟酚、菌綠素、或酞菁。In some embodiments, the FAP-binding portion of the fusion protein provided herein may be linked, fused with, or conjugated to one or more photosensitizers (PS). Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a non-invasive treatment involving the accumulation of PS in solid tumors, followed by local delivery of light of the correct wavelength to induce PS activation. This activation leads to the in situ production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the presence of oxygen, causing damage to cellular components and ultimately resulting in necrosis or apoptosis. PDT is a promising tool in oncology, but it is often limited by side effects due to insufficient photosensitizer targeting. Therefore, this disclosure covers the conjugation of PS to tumor-specific binders (e.g., antibodies). This article also provides the use of antigen-binding Ab fragments (such as Fab or scFv fragments) because, in some embodiments, antigen-binding fragments retain the same binding specificity as full-size antibodies, but penetrate tumor masses more effectively due to their smaller size and are cleared from circulation more effectively due to the lack of an Fc domain. In some embodiments, porphyrins are provided for use in photodynamic therapy and photodiagnosis, and are among the most prominent classes of photosensitizers in these fields of biomedical science (Sandland J, Boyle RW. Bioconjug Chem. 30(4):975-993 (2019)). In some embodiments, the photosensitizer is a tetrapyrrole macrocyclic compound. In some embodiments, the tetrapyrrole macrocyclic compound is porphyrin, dihydroporphyrin, chlorophyll, or phthalocyanine.
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之融合蛋白之FAP結合部分可與一或多種細胞毒性劑連接、融合、或接合,其在一些實施例中可來自抗體藥物接合物(ADC),在本文中稱為抗FAP ADC。所屬技術領域中具有通常知識者可根據預期應用選擇適合的細胞毒素。在一些實施例中,細胞裂解劑係抗代謝劑、烷化劑、抗生素、生長因子、細胞介素、抗血管生成劑、抗有絲分裂劑、蒽環、毒素、或細胞凋亡劑中的至少一者。In some embodiments, the FAP-binding portion of the fusion protein provided herein may be linked, fused with, or conjugated to one or more cytotoxic agents, which in some embodiments may be derived from antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), referred to herein as anti-FAP ADCs. Those skilled in the art can select a suitable cytotoxic agent according to the intended application. In some embodiments, the cytolytic agent is at least one of an antimetabolic agent, alkylating agent, antibiotic, growth factor, intercytokine, antiangiogenic agent, antimitotic agent, anthracycline, toxin, or apoptosis-inducing agent.
在一些實施例中,細胞毒性劑係奧瑞他汀、類美登素、驅動蛋白-紡錘體蛋白(kinesin-spindle protein, KSP)抑制劑、菸鹼醯胺磷酸核糖基轉移酶(nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase, NAMPT)抑制劑、或吡咯并苯二氮平衍生物。包含類美登素之接合物的產生可如Chari, Ravi V J, et al.

The formation of conjugates containing maytansine-like substances can occur as described in Chari, Ravi VJ, et al . Cancer research 52.1 (1992): 127-131, or EP2424569 B1, both of which are incorporated herein by reference. The formation of conjugates containing kinesin-spindle protein (KSP) inhibitors can occur as described in WO2019243159 A1, the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference.

In some embodiments, the linker includes a linker designed to release a cytotoxic agent and/or a cell growth inhibitor upon internalization of the anti-FAP ADC into the cell. In some specific embodiments, the linker includes a linker designed to specifically or nonspecifically cleave and/or sacrifice or otherwise degrade within the cell. A variety of linkers that can be used to link a drug to an antigen-binding site (such as an antibody in the context of an ADC) are known in the art. Any such linker, and others, can be used to link a cytotoxic agent and/or a cell growth inhibitor to the antigen-binding site of the anti-FAP ADC described herein.
與抗FAP ADC的抗原結合部份連接的細胞毒性劑及/或細胞生長抑制劑的數目(藥物與抗體的比率(drug-to-antibody ratio):DAR)可變化,且將僅受抗原結合部份上可用附著位點的數目及連接到單一連接子之試劑的數目的限制。一般而言,連接子將單一細胞毒性劑及/或細胞生長抑制劑連接至抗FAP ADC的抗原結合部份。在抗FAP ADC的實施例中,其包括多於一種細胞毒性劑及/或細胞生長抑制劑,各試劑可相同或不同。只要抗趨化因子受體或抗FAP ADC在使用及/或儲存條件下不展現出不可接受的聚集水平,則考慮具有二十或甚至更高的DAR的抗FAP ADC。在一些實施例中,本文所述之抗FAP ADC可具有在約1-10、1-8、1-6、或1-4範圍內的DAR。在某些具體實施例中,抗FAP ADC可具有2、3、或4的DAR。在一些實施例中,抗FAP ADC係根據結構式(1)的化合物: [D-L-XY] n-Ab 式1 或其鹽,其中各「D」獨立於其他代表細胞毒性劑及/或細胞生長抑制劑;各「L」獨立於其他代表連接子;「Ab」代表抗FAP受體結合部份,例如本文所提供之抗FAP抗體;各「XY」代表形成在連接子上的官能基Rx與抗趨化因子受體結合部份上的「互補」官能基Ry之間的鍵聯;且n代表抗趨化因子受體ADC的DAR。 The number of cytotoxic agents and/or cell growth inhibitors (drug-to-antibody ratio: DAR) linked to the antigen-binding site of the anti-FAP ADC can vary and will be limited only by the number of available attachment sites on the antigen-binding site and the number of reagents linked to a single linker. Generally, the linker links a single cytotoxic agent and/or cell growth inhibitor to the antigen-binding site of the anti-FAP ADC. In embodiments of the anti-FAP ADC, it includes more than one cytotoxic agent and/or cell growth inhibitor, which may be the same or different. Anti-FAP ADCs with a DAR of twenty or higher are considered, provided that the anti-chemotype receptor or anti-FAP ADC does not exhibit unacceptable aggregation levels under use and/or storage conditions. In some embodiments, the anti-FAP ADCs described herein may have a DAR in the range of about 1-10, 1-8, 1-6, or 1-4. In some specific embodiments, the anti-FAP ADC may have a DAR of 2, 3, or 4.

在一些實施例中,一或多個修飾包含一或多個胺基酸改變。在一些實施例中,將本文所提供之FAP結合劑用一、2、3、4、5、或更多個胺基酸改變工程改造。胺基酸改變包含一或多個胺基酸取代、缺失、及/或插入。在一些實施例中,一或多個胺基酸取代包含保守性取代或非保守性取代。對於作為FAP結合劑(諸如人類FAP結合劑)的多肽(例如抗體、片段、及/或結合多肽),保守性胺基酸取代包括其中胺基酸殘基經具有相似側鏈的胺基酸殘基置換的取代。所屬技術領域中已定義具有相似側鏈之胺基酸殘基的家族。此等家族包括具有鹼性側鏈之胺基酸(例如離胺酸、精胺酸、組胺酸)、酸性側鏈(例如天冬胺酸、麩胺酸)、未帶電極性側鏈(例如甘胺酸、天冬醯胺酸、麩醯胺酸、絲胺酸、蘇胺酸、酪胺酸、半胱胺酸、色胺酸)、非極性側鏈(例如丙胺酸、纈胺酸、白胺酸、異白胺酸、脯胺酸、苯丙胺酸、甲硫胺酸)、β-支鏈側鏈(例如蘇胺酸、纈胺酸、異白胺酸)、及芳族側鏈(例如酪胺酸、苯丙胺酸、色胺酸、組胺酸)。此類經保守修飾的變體係對同質多形變體、種間同系物、及等位基因的補充,且不排除同質多形變體、種間同系物、及等位基因。以下八組含有彼此保守取代的胺基酸:1)丙胺酸(A)、甘胺酸(G);2)天冬胺酸(D)、麩胺酸(E);3)天冬醯胺酸(N)、麩醯胺酸(Q);4)精胺酸(R)、離胺酸(K);5)異白胺酸(I)、白胺酸(L)、甲硫胺酸(M)、纈胺酸(V);6)苯丙胺酸(F)、酪胺酸(Y)、色胺酸(W);7)絲胺酸(S)、蘇胺酸(T);及8)半胱胺酸(C)、甲硫胺酸(M)(參見,例如,Creighton, Proteins (1984))。在一些實施例中,用語「保守序列修飾(conservative sequence modification)」用以指不顯著影響或改變含有胺基酸序列之抗體的結合特徵的胺基酸修飾。In some embodiments, one or more modifications involve one or more amino acid changes. In some embodiments, the FAP binder provided herein is engineered with one, two, three, four, five, or more amino acid changes. Amino acid changes include one or more amino acid substitutions, deletions, and/or insertions. In some embodiments, one or more amino acid substitutions include conservative substitutions or non-conservative substitutions. For peptides (e.g., antibodies, fragments, and/or binding peptides) that serve as FAP binders (such as human FAP binders), conservative amino acid substitutions include substitutions in which an amino acid residue is replaced by an amino acid residue having a similar side chain. Families of amino acid residues having similar side chains have been defined in the art. These families include amino acids with basic side chains (e.g., lysine, arginine, histamine), acidic side chains (e.g., aspartic acid, glutamic acid), uncharged polar side chains (e.g., glycine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, serine, threonine, tyrosine, cysteine, tryptophan), nonpolar side chains (e.g., alanine, succinic acid, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, methionine), β-branched side chains (e.g., threonine, succinic acid, isoleucine), and aromatic side chains (e.g., tyrosine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, histamine). These conserved modified variants supplement homomorphic polymorphs, interspecific homologs, and alleles, and do not exclude homomorphic polymorphs, interspecific homologs, and alleles. The following eight groups contain amino acids that are conserved substitutes for each other: 1) alanine (A), glycine (G); 2) aspartic acid (D), glutamic acid (E); 3) aspartic acid (N), glutamic acid (Q); 4) arginine (R), lysine (K); 5) isoleucine (I), leucine (L), methionine (M), valerine (V); 6) phenylalanine (F), tyrosine (Y), tryptophan (W); 7) serine (S), threonine (T); and 8) cysteine (C), methionine (M) (see, for example, Creighton, Proteins (1984)). In some embodiments, the term "conservative sequence modification" is used to refer to amino acid modifications that do not significantly affect or alter the binding characteristics of an antibody containing an amino acid sequence.
因此,在一些實施例中,FAP結合劑中預測的非必需胺基酸殘基經來自同一側鏈家族的另一胺基酸殘基置換。識別不消除抗原結合的核苷酸及胺基酸保守性取代的方法係所屬技術領域中熟知的(參見例如Brummell et al., Biochem. 32:1180-1187 (1993);Kobayashi et al. Protein Eng. 12(10):879-884 (1999);及Burks et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 94:412-417 (1997))。在一些實施例中,本文所述之保守性胺基酸改變將FAP結合劑(例如抗體)(包括人類FAP結合劑)的胺基酸序列修飾50%、或55%、或60%、或65%、或70%、或75%、或80%、或85%、或90%、或95%、或98%、或99%。在一些實施例中,核苷酸及胺基酸取代係指 表 6或 表 7中描述之CDR的至多1、2、3、4、5、或6個胺基酸取代。因此,例如,各個此類CDR可含有至多5個保守性胺基酸取代,例如至多(不多於)4個保守性胺基酸取代,例如至多(不多於)3個保守性胺基酸取代,例如至多(不多於)2個保守性胺基酸取代、或不多於1個保守性胺基酸取代。 Therefore, in some embodiments, the predicted non-essential amino acid residue in the FAP binder is replaced by another amino acid residue from the same sidechain family. Methods for identifying nucleotides and conserved amino acid substitutions that do not eliminate antigen binding are well known in the relevant art (see, for example, Brummell et al ., Biochem. 32:1180-1187 (1993); Kobayashi et al . Protein Eng. 12(10):879-884 (1999); and Burks et al . Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 94:412-417 (1997)). In some embodiments, the conserved amino acid changes described herein modify the amino acid sequence of the FAP binder (e.g., antibody) (including human FAP binders) by 50%, or 55%, or 60%, or 65%, or 70%, or 75%, or 80%, or 85%, or 90%, or 95%, or 98%, or 99%. In some embodiments, nucleotide and amino acid substitutions refer to up to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 amino acid substitutions in the CDRs described in Table 6 or Table 7. Thus, for example, each of these CDRs may contain up to 5 conserved amino acid substitutions, for example, up to (no more than) 4 conserved amino acid substitutions, for example, up to (no more than) 3 conserved amino acid substitutions, for example, up to (no more than) 2 conserved amino acid substitutions, or no more than 1 conserved amino acid substitution.
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之抗體係親和力成熟的,其中與不具有此類改變的親代抗體相比,此類抗體在一或多個CDR中包含一或多種胺基酸改變,此類改變導致抗體對抗原之親和力改善。可以使用適合的選擇及/或誘變方法使本文所提供之抗FAP抗體親和力成熟。在一些實施例中,親和力成熟抗體之親和力係製備成熟抗體之起始抗體(例如小鼠或兔人源化或人類抗體)之1.5倍或更多、2倍或更多、3倍或更多、4倍或更多、5倍或更多、10倍或更多、20倍或更多、或30倍或更多。In some embodiments, the antibodies provided herein are affinity-matured, wherein, compared to parental antibodies without such modifications, these antibodies contain one or more amino acid modifications in one or more CDRs, resulting in improved affinity of the antibody for the antigen. The affinity maturation of the anti-FAP antibodies provided herein can be achieved using suitable selection and/or mutagenesis methods. In some embodiments, the affinity of the affinity-matured antibody is 1.5 times or more, 2 times or more, 3 times or more, 4 times or more, 5 times or more, 10 times or more, 20 times or more, or 30 times or more than that of the starting antibody (e.g., humanized mouse or rabbit or human antibody) used to prepare the mature antibody.
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之FAP結合劑包含調節抗體體內半衰期的一或多個修飾。例如,解決Fc與FcRn的交互作用允許調節抗體的體內半衰期。在一些實施例中,藉由例如引入突變H435A來消除交互作用導致極短的半衰期,因為FcRn循環不再保護抗體免受溶酶體降解。在一些實施例中,本文所提供之FAP結合劑(例如抗體)包含修飾(包含H435A取代)或已以其他方式經工程改造以減少半衰期。In some embodiments, the FAP binders provided herein include one or more modifications that regulate the in vivo half-life of the antibody. For example, resolving the interaction between Fc and FcRn allows for regulation of the in vivo half-life of the antibody. In some embodiments, eliminating the interaction by, for example, introducing a mutation in H435A results in an extremely short half-life because the FcRn cycle no longer protects the antibody from lysosomal degradation. In some embodiments, the FAP binders (e.g., antibodies) provided herein include modifications (including H435A substitution) or have been otherwise engineered to reduce the half-life.
在一些實施例中,本文所述之FAP結合劑包含延長本文提供之抗FAP結合劑之半衰期的一或多個修飾。例如,已顯示包含「YTE」突變(M252Y/S254T/T256E)及/或諸如「LS」突變(M428L/N434S)的等效突變的抗體藉由更有效地從臨床前物種以及人類兩者中的內體循環而顯著延長半衰期(Dall'Acqua, William F., et al. The Journal of Immunology 169.9: 5171-5180 (2002); Zalevsky, Jonathan, et al“Enhanced antibody half-life improves in vivoactivity.” Nature biotechnology 28.2 (2010): 157-159.)。因此,在一些實施例中,本文所提供之FAP結合劑包含YTE突變(M252Y/S254T/T256E)及/或諸如LS (M428L/N434S)的等效突變,或者已經以其他方式經工程改造以改善半衰期。用於延長半衰期之適合的Fc工程改造方法可見於Haraya, Kenta, Tatsuhiko Tachibana, and Tomoyuki Igawa. Drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics 34.1: 25-41 (2019)及/或Lee, Chang-Han, et al. Nature communications 10.1: 1-11 (2019),兩者皆以引用方式併入本文中。 In some embodiments, the FAP binders described herein include one or more modifications that extend the half-life of the anti-FAP binders provided herein. For example, antibodies containing equivalent mutations such as the "YTE" mutation (M252Y/S254T/T256E) and/or the "LS" mutation (M428L/N434S) have been shown to significantly extend half-life by more effectively circulating from endosomal sources in both preclinical and human species (Dall'Acqua, William F., et al . The Journal of Immunology 169.9: 5171-5180 (2002); Zalevsky, Jonathan, et al. "Enhanced antibody half-life improves in vivo activity." Nature biotechnology 28.2 (2010): 157-159.). Therefore, in some embodiments, the FAP binders described herein contain YTE mutations (M252Y/S254T/T256E) and/or equivalent mutations such as LS (M428L/N434S), or have been otherwise engineered to improve half-life. Suitable Fc engineering methods for prolonging half-life can be found in Haraya, Kenta, Tatsuhiko Tachibana, and Tomoyuki Igawa. Drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics 34.1: 25-41 (2019) and/or Lee, Chang-Han, et al . Nature communications 10.1: 1-11 (2019), both of which are incorporated herein by reference.
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之FAP結合劑包含促進Fc域的第一次單元及第二次單元締合的一或多個修飾。此類修飾包括肽主鏈的操作或Fc域次單元的轉譯後修飾,其減少或防止包含Fc域次單元的多肽與相同的多肽締合以形成同二聚體。包含Fc區的抗體可包含或可不包含促進Fc域的第一次單元及第二次單元締合的修飾。如本文中所使用的促進締合的修飾包括對所欲締合的兩個Fc域次單元(例如Fc域之第一次單元及第二次單元)之各者進行的單獨修飾,其中修飾係彼此互補以促進兩個Fc域次單元的締合。例如,促進締合的修飾可改變一或兩個Fc域次單元之結構或電荷,使其等在空間或靜電上有利地締合。因此,(異源)二聚化發生在包含第一Fc域次單元之多肽與包含第二Fc域次單元之多肽之間,其可能不相同,例如在與次單元之各者融合的其他組分(例如抗原結合部份)不相同的意義上。在一些實施例中,促進締合的修飾包含Fc域中的胺基酸改變,具體地係胺基酸取代。在特定的實施例中,促進締合的修飾包含Fc域之兩個次單元之各者中的單獨的胺基酸改變,具體地係胺基酸取代。 化學改變 In some embodiments, the FAP binders provided herein include one or more modifications that promote the bonding of the first and second units of the Fc domain. Such modifications include manipulations of the peptide backbone or post-translational modifications of the Fc domain subunits that reduce or prevent the bonding of the peptide containing the Fc domain subunits with the same peptide to form a homodimer. Antibodies containing the Fc region may or may not contain modifications that promote the bonding of the first and second units of the Fc domain. As used herein, bonding-promoting modifications include individual modifications to each of the two Fc domain subunits to be bonded (e.g., the first and second units of the Fc domain), wherein the modifications are complementary to each other to promote the bonding of the two Fc domain subunits. For example, a binding-promoting modification can alter the structure or charge of one or both Fc domain subunits, making them sterically or electrostatically compatible. Therefore, (hetero)dimerization occurs between a polypeptide containing a first Fc domain subunit and a polypeptide containing a second Fc domain subunit, which may be different, for example, in the sense that other components fused to each subunit (e.g., antigen-binding moieties) are different. In some embodiments, binding-promoting modifications involve amino acid changes in the Fc domain, specifically amino acid substitution. In certain embodiments, binding-promoting modifications involve individual amino acid changes in each of the two subunits of the Fc domain, specifically amino acid substitution. Chemical Change
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之FAP結合劑藉由一或多種化學改變來修飾,該一或多種化學改變包含糖基化(例如無岩藻糖基化(afucosylation))、乙醯化、聚乙二醇化、磷酸化、硫酸化、醯胺化、已知保護/阻斷基團的衍生化、蛋白水解切割、與細胞配體或其他蛋白質的鍵聯。許多化學修飾中之任一者可由已知技術進行,包括但不限於特異性化學裂解、乙醯化、甲醯化、衣黴素的代謝合成等。在一些實施例中,藉由一或多種化學改變修飾的抗體在本文中被稱為衍生化抗體或衍生物。另外,衍生物可含有一或多種非天然胺基酸,例如,使用ambrx技術,參見例如Wolfson, Wendy. “Amber codon flashing ambrx augments proteins with unnatural amino acids.” Chemistry & biology 13.10 (2006): 1011-1012。In some embodiments, the FAP binders provided herein are modified by one or more chemical changes, including glycosylation (e.g., afucosylation), acetylation, polyethylene glycolation, phosphorylation, sulfation, amination, derivatization of known protecting/blocking groups, proteolytic cleavage, and binding to cellular ligands or other proteins. Any of these chemical modifications can be performed using known techniques, including but not limited to specific chemical cleavage, acetylation, methylation, and chlamydia metabolism. In some embodiments, antibodies modified by one or more chemical changes are referred to herein as derivatized antibodies or derivatives. In addition, derivatives may contain one or more non-natural amino acids, for example, using ambrx technology, see Wolfson, Wendy. “Amber codon flashing ambrx augments proteins with unnatural amino acids.” Chemistry & biology 13.10 (2006): 1011-1012.
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之FAP結合劑包含改變至少一個恆定區介導的生物效應功能的一或多個修飾。例如,在一些實施例中,相對於未經修飾的FAP結合劑,可以修飾FAP結合劑以降低或增強至少一種恆定區介導的生物效應功能,例如,減少或改善與Fc受體(FcγR)的結合。FcγR結合可能減少,例如藉由在FcγR交互作用所必需的特定區使抗體之免疫球蛋白恆定區區段突變(參見例如Canfield, Stephen M., and Sherie L. Morrison. The Journal of experimental medicine 173.6: 1483-1491 (1991);及Lund, John, et al. The Journal of Immunology 147.8: 2657-2662 (1991))。FcγR結合可例如藉由無岩藻糖基化增強。減少FcγR結合亦可能減少依賴FcγR交互作用的其他效應功能,諸如調理作用(例如CDC)、吞噬作用(例如ADCP)、及抗原依賴性細胞毒性(例如ADCC) In some embodiments, the FAP binders provided herein include one or more modifications that alter the function of at least one stationary region-mediated biological effect. For example, in some embodiments, the FAP binders may be modified, relative to the unmodified FAP binders, to reduce or enhance the function of at least one stationary region-mediated biological effect, such as reducing or improving binding to an Fc receptor (FcγR). FcγR binding may be reduced, for example, by mutation of immunoglobulin homeostasis regions of antibodies in specific regions essential for FcγR interactions (see, for example, Canfield, Stephen M., and Sherie L. Morrison. The Journal of Experimental Medicine 173.6: 1483-1491 (1991); and Lund, John, et al . The Journal of Immunology 147.8: 2657-2662 (1991)). FcγR binding can be enhanced, for example, by the absence of fucosylation. Reduced FcγR binding may also reduce other FcγR interaction-dependent effector functions, such as opsonization (e.g., CDC), phagocytosis (e.g., ADCP), and antigen-dependent cytotoxicity (e.g., ADCC).
因此,在一些實施例中,本文所提供之抗體及/或結合多肽經修飾,使得抗體的Fc區中的寡糖不具有任何岩藻糖單元或具有減少的岩藻糖單元(例如無岩藻糖基化的)。從附接至Fc上的雙觸角錯合物型寡糖中去除核心岩藻糖可大大增加ADCC效應功能,而不改變抗原結合或CDC效應功能。已知若干種減少或消除含Fc分子(例如抗體)的岩藻糖基化的方法。此等包括在某些哺乳動物細胞系中的重組表現,該等哺乳動物細胞系包括FUT8敲除細胞系、變體CHO系Lec13、大鼠融合瘤細胞系YB2/0、包含特異性針對FUT8基因之小干擾RNA的細胞系、及共表現α-1,4-N-乙醯葡糖胺基轉移酶III及高基氏α-甘露糖苷酶II的細胞系。替代地,含Fc的分子可在非哺乳動物細胞(諸如植物細胞、酵母菌、或原核細胞,例如大腸桿菌)中表現。鋅指核酸酶係產生無岩藻糖基化抗體的另一種已知方法。參見例如Haryadi et al., Bioengineered 4:2, 90-94 (2013);Ripka et al. Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 249:533-545 (1986);Yamane-Ohnuki et al. Biotech. Bioeng. 87: 614 (2004);Pereira et al. mAbs 10(5): 693-711 (2018)。 Therefore, in some embodiments, the antibodies and/or binding peptides provided herein are modified such that the oligosaccharides in the Fc region of the antibody lack any fucose units or have reduced fucose units (e.g., unfucosylated). Removing the core fucose from biantennary-wedge-type oligosaccharides attached to the Fc region can significantly increase ADCC efficacy without altering antigen-binding or CDC efficacy. Several methods for reducing or eliminating fucosylation in Fc-containing molecules (e.g., antibodies) are known. These include recombination expression in certain mammalian cell lines, including FUT8 knockout cell lines, the variant CHO line Lec13, the rat fusion tumor cell line YB2/0, cell lines containing small interfering RNA specifically targeting the FUT8 gene, and cell lines co-expressing α-1,4-N-acetylglucosamine transferase III and Gorgni's α-mannosidase II. Alternatively, Fc-containing molecules can be expressed in non-mammalian cells (such as plant cells, yeast, or prokaryotic cells, such as Escherichia coli). Another known method for producing fucosylated antibodies using zinc finger nuclease systems is... See, for example, Haryadi et al ., Bioengineered 4:2, 90-94 (2013); Ripka et al . Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 249:533-545 (1986); Yamane-Ohnuki et al . Biotech. Bioeng. 87: 614 (2004); Pereira et al . mAbs 10(5): 693-711 (2018).
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之FAP結合劑可進一步修飾以含有所屬技術領域種已知且容易獲得的額外非蛋白質部份。適合FAP結合劑衍生化的部份包括但不限於水溶性聚合物。水溶性聚合物的非限制性實例包括但不限於聚乙二醇(polyethylene glycol, PEG)、乙二醇/丙二醇的共聚物、羧甲基纖維素、右旋糖酐、聚乙烯醇、聚乙烯吡咯啶酮、聚-1,3-二氧戊環、聚-1,3,6-三㗁烷、乙烯/馬來酸酐共聚物、聚胺基酸(均聚物或隨機共聚物)、及右旋糖酐或聚(n-乙烯基吡咯啶酮)聚乙二醇、丙二醇均聚物、聚環氧丙烷/環氧乙烷共聚物、聚氧乙烯化多元醇(例如甘油)、聚乙烯醇、及其混合物。聚乙二醇丙醛因為其在水中的穩定性而在製造中可能具有優勢。聚合物可具有任何分子量,且可係分支的或非分支的。附接至抗體之聚合物的數目可變化,且若附接多於一種聚合物,則其等可係相同或不同的分子。通常,用於衍生化之聚合物的數目及/或類型可基於考慮因素來判定,包括但不限於待改進之FAP結合劑的特定性質或功能、抗體衍生物是否將在限定條件下用於治療。 活性 In some embodiments, the FAP binders provided herein can be further modified to include additional non-protein fractions known and readily available in the art. Suitable fractions for FAP binder derivatization include, but are not limited to, water-soluble polymers. Non-limiting examples of water-soluble polymers include, but are not limited to, polyethylene glycol (PEG), copolymers of ethylene glycol/propylene glycol, carboxymethyl cellulose, dextran, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, poly-1,3-dioxolane, poly-1,3,6-triane, ethylene/maleic anhydride copolymers, polyamino acids (homopolymers or random copolymers), and dextran or poly(n-vinylpyrrolidone) polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol homopolymers, polypropylene oxide/ethylene oxide copolymers, polyoxyethyleneized polyols (e.g., glycerol), polyvinyl alcohol, and mixtures thereof. Polyethylene glycol propionaldehyde may have advantages in manufacturing due to its stability in water. The polymer can have any molecular weight and can be branched or unbranched. The number of polymers attached to the antibody can vary, and if more than one polymer is attached, they can be the same or different molecules. Typically, the number and/or type of polymer used for derivatization can be determined based on factors including, but not limited to, the specific properties or functions of the FAP binder to be improved, and whether the antibody derivative will be used for treatment under specific conditions. Activity
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之FAP結合劑(例如抗FAP抗體或其抗原結合片段、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白)可結合FAP。在一些實施例中,FAP結合劑(例如雙特異性抗體或其融合蛋白)可結合TACR。本文所提供之抗FAP抗體、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白與目標(諸如FAP或TACR)之結合親和力可藉由測量例如與表現FAP之細胞系結合的半最大有效濃度(EC 50)來判定。以莫耳濃度(例如nM)表示的EC 50係達到最大結合的一半的抗FAP抗體、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白的濃度。 In some embodiments, the FAP conjugates provided herein (e.g., anti-FAP antibodies or their antigen-binding fragments, bispecific antibodies, or their fusion proteins) can bind to FAP. In some embodiments, the FAP conjugates (e.g., bispecific antibodies or their fusion proteins) can bind to TACR. The binding affinity of the anti-FAP antibodies, bispecific antibodies, or their fusion proteins provided herein to a target (such as FAP or TACR) can be determined by measuring, for example, the half-maximal effective concentration ( EC50 ) of the anti-FAP antibody, bispecific antibody, or its fusion protein that binds to a cell line expressing FAP. The EC50, expressed in moles (e.g., nM), represents the concentration of the anti-FAP antibody, bispecific antibody, or its fusion protein at which half of the maximum binding is achieved.
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之抗FAP抗體、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白可以不大於20 nM、不大於19 nM、不大於18 nM、不大於17 nM、不大於16 nM、不大於15 nM、不大於14 nM、不大於13 nM、不大於12 nM、不大於11 nM、不大於10 nM、不大於9 nM、不大於8 nM、不大於7 nM、不大於6 nM、或不大於5 nM的EC 50結合FAP或結合表現FAP之細胞。在一些實施例中,本文所提供之抗FAP抗體、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白可以約0.001 nM至約5 nM、約0.01 nM至約3 nM、或約0.1 nM至約2 nM的EC 50結合FAP或結合表現FAP之細胞。 In some embodiments, the anti-FAP antibody, bispecific antibody, or fusion protein provided herein may be no more than 20 nM, no more than 19 nM, no more than 18 nM, no more than 17 nM, no more than 16 nM, no more than 15 nM, no more than 14 nM, no more than 13 nM, no more than 12 nM, no more than 11 nM, no more than 10 nM, no more than 9 nM, no more than 8 nM, no more than 7 nM, no more than 6 nM, or no more than 5 nM of EC50 binding to FAP or to cells expressing FAP. In some embodiments, the anti-FAP antibodies, bispecific antibodies, or fusion proteins thereof provided herein may bind to FAP or cells expressing FAP at EC50 concentrations of about 0.001 nM to about 5 nM, about 0.01 nM to about 3 nM, or about 0.1 nM to about 2 nM.
在一些實施例中,本文所提供之雙特異性抗體或其融合蛋白可以不大於20 nM、不大於19 nM、不大於18 nM、不大於17 nM、不大於16 nM、不大於15 nM、不大於14 nM、不大於13 nM、不大於12 nM、不大於11 nM、不大於10 nM、不大於9 nM、不大於8 nM、不大於7 nM、不大於6 nM、或不大於5 nM的EC 50結合TACR(例如LTßR)或結合表現TACR(例如LTßR)之細胞。在一些實施例中,本文所提供之雙特異性抗體或其融合蛋白可以約0.001 nM至約5 nM、約0.01 nM至約3 nM、或約0.1 nM至約2 nM的EC 50結合TACR(例如LTßR)或表現TACR(例如LTßR)之細胞。 In some embodiments, the bispecific antibody or its fusion protein provided herein may be in EC50 cells that bind TACR (e.g., LTßR) or bind cells that express TACR (e.g., LTßR) at a concentration not exceeding 20 nM, 19 nM, 18 nM, 17 nM, 16 nM, 15 nM, 14 nM, 13 nM, 12 nM, 11 nM, 10 nM, 9 nM, 8 nM, 7 nM, 6 nM, or 5 nM. In some embodiments, the bispecific antibody or its fusion protein provided herein may be in EC50 cells that bind TACR (e.g., LTßR) or express TACR (e.g., LTßR) at a rate of about 0.001 nM to about 5 nM, about 0.01 nM to about 3 nM, or about 0.1 nM to about 2 nM.
本文所提供之抗FAP抗體、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白與目標(諸如FAP或TACR(例如LTßR))之結合親和力可藉由測量例如解離常數(K D,K D=k off/k on,或K D= Kd/Ka)來判定。如本文中所使用,K D具有奈米莫耳單位(nM)且對應於在平衡時佔據一半目標蛋白的抗體、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白的濃度。解離常數愈小,抗體、雙特異性抗體、或融合蛋白與其目標之間的親和力愈高。 The binding affinity of anti-FAP antibodies, bispecific antibodies, or their fusion proteins to targets (such as FAP or TACRs (e.g., LTßR)) presented in this article can be determined by measuring, for example, the dissociation constant (K <sub>D</sub> , K <sub>D</sub> = k<sub> off </sub>/k <sub>on</sub> , or K <sub>D</sub> = K<sub>d</sub>/Ka). As used herein, K <sub>D </sub> has nanomolar units (nM) and corresponds to the concentration of the antibody, bispecific antibody, or its fusion protein that constitutes half of the target protein at equilibrium. The smaller the dissociation constant, the higher the affinity between the antibody, bispecific antibody, or fusion protein and its target.

When it is found that the test conditions affect the determined K<sub> D </sub>, the test settings with the smallest standard deviation should be used.

例如,抗體可在細菌中產生,特別係當不需要糖基化及Fc效應功能時。關於細菌中抗體片段及多肽的表現,參見例如美國專利第5,648,237號、第5,789,199號、及第5,840,523號。(亦參見Charlton, K. A., In: Methods in Molecular Biology, Vol. 248, Lo, B. K. C. (ed.), Humana Press, Totowa, N.J., pp. 245-254 (2003),其描述抗體片段在大腸桿菌中的表現)表現之後,抗體可從細菌細胞糊以可溶流份單離且可進一步純化。For example, antibodies can be generated in bacteria, especially when glycosylation and Fc effector function are not required. For the expression of antibody fragments and peptides in bacteria, see, for example, US Patents 5,648,237, 5,789,199, and 5,840,523. (See also Charlton, K.

General techniques for performing the above-mentioned immunoassays are known to those skilled in the art.
提供用於偵測及診斷方法的FAP結合劑(例如抗FAP抗體或其抗原結合片段、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白)可用可偵測部份標記。可偵測部份直接或間接產生可偵測信號。例如,可偵測部分可係本文所述者中之任一者,例如放射性同位素(諸如3H、14C、32P、35S、或125I)、螢光或化學發光化合物(諸如螢光異硫氰酸鹽(fluorescein isothiocyanate, FITC)、Texas紅、花青、光青、玫瑰紅、或螢光素)、或酶(諸如鹼性磷酸酶、β-半乳糖苷酶、或辣根過氧化酶)。FAP-binding agents (e.g., anti-FAP antibodies or their antigen-binding fragments, bispecific antibodies, or their fusion proteins) used for detection and diagnostic methods may be labeled with a detectable moiety. The detectable moiety generates a detectable signal directly or indirectly. For example, the detectable moiety may be any of those described herein, such as a radioactive isotope (e.g., 3H, 14C, 32P, 35S, or 125I), a fluorescent or chemiluminescent compound (e.g., fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), Texas red, anthocyanin, cyanine, rose red, or fluorescein), or an enzyme (e.g., alkaline phosphatase, β-galactosidase, or horseradish peroxidase).
偵測可藉由在適合向FAP提供FAP結合劑(例如抗FAP抗體或其抗原結合片段、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白)的條件下接觸樣本並評估樣本中FAP的存在(例如水平)來完成。樣本中的FAP水平與參考樣本的水平相比可指示具有FAP活性的腫瘤或腫瘤相關組織的存在。參考樣本可係在較早時間點取自對象的樣本或來自另一個體的樣本。 套組 Detection can be performed by accessing a sample under conditions suitable for supplying FAP binders (e.g., anti-FAP antibodies or their antigen-binding fragments, bispecific antibodies, or their fusion proteins) and assessing the presence (e.g., level) of FAP in the sample. The FAP level in the sample, compared to the level in a reference sample, indicates the presence of a tumor or tumor-related tissue with FAP activity. The reference sample can be a sample taken from the subject at an earlier time or a sample from another individual. Kit

Another mechanism is the ability of the FAP conjugate to induce SLO formation. A third mechanism is the ability of the FAP conjugate to induce TLS formation. An additional mechanism is the ability of the FAP conjugate to activate CAF. Another mechanism is the ability of the FAP conjugate to induce tumor cell death. These mechanisms of action are further described herein.
在一些實施例中,FAP結合劑的有效量或劑量係指本文所述之FAP結合劑的量,或包含該FAP結合劑的組成物或醫藥組成物的量,其將引發研究者、醫師、或其他臨床醫師正在尋求的組織、系統、動物、哺乳動物、或人類的生物或醫學反應或對組織、系統、動物、哺乳動物、或人類的期望治療效果。FAP結合劑的有效量可根據諸如個體的疾病狀態、年齡、性別、及體重、及FAP+分子在個體中引發所欲反應的能力的因子而變化。有效量亦係其中治療有益效果超過FAP結合劑的任何毒性或有害效果的量。此類益處包括改善癌症的徵象或症狀。所屬技術領域中具有通常知識者可藉由使用已知技術並藉由觀察在類似情況下獲得的結果而容易地判定有效量。本文所述之FAP結合劑之有效量可以單次劑量或多次劑量投予。在判定患者的有效量時,主治醫師會考慮數個因子,包括但不限於:患者的體型(例如體重或質量)、體表面積、年齡、及一般健康狀況;涉及的具體疾病或病症;疾病或病症的程度、受累程度、或嚴重性;個體患者的反應;投予的特定化合物;投予方式;投予製劑的生體可用率特性;選擇的劑量方案;伴隨藥物的使用;及醫師所知的其他相關情況。在一些實施例中,對象係哺乳動物,包括人類及非人類動物,諸如人類、小鼠、及食蟹獼猴。In some embodiments, the effective amount or dosage of an FAP conjugate refers to the amount of the FAP conjugate described herein, or the amount of a component or pharmaceutical composition containing the FAP conjugate, that will elicit a biological or medical response or desired therapeutic effect in a tissue, system, animal, mammal, or human that an investigator, physician, or other clinician is seeking. The effective amount of an FAP conjugate can vary based on factors such as an individual's disease state, age, sex, and weight, and the ability of FAP+ molecules to elicit the desired response in an individual. An effective amount is also the amount in which a therapeutically beneficial effect outweighs any toxic or adverse effects of the FAP conjugate. Such benefits include improvement of signs or symptoms of cancer. Those with ordinary knowledge in the relevant technical field can easily determine the effective dose by using known techniques and by observing results obtained under similar conditions. The effective dose of the FAP conjugates described herein can be administered as a single dose or multiple doses. When determining the effective dose for a patient, the attending physician will consider several factors, including but not limited to: the patient's body type (e.g., weight or mass), body surface area, age, and general health condition; the specific disease or condition involved; the degree, extent, or severity of the disease or condition; the individual patient's response; the specific compound administered; the method of administration; the bioavailability characteristics of the administered formulation; the chosen dosage regimen; the use of concomitant medications; and other relevant information known to the physician. In some implementations, the subjects are mammals, including humans and non-human animals such as humans, mice, and cynomolgus monkeys.
在一些實施例中,本文提供一種用於治療患有癌症之對象的方法,其包括向該對象投予治療有效量的本文所提供之FAP結合劑(例如抗FAP抗體或其抗原結合片段、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白)或醫藥組成物。In some embodiments, this document provides a method for treating a subject with cancer, which includes administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of the FAP conjugate provided herein (e.g., an anti-FAP antibody or its antigen-binding fragment, a bispecific antibody, or its fusion protein) or a pharmaceutical composition thereof.
在一些實施例中,「治療有效量」的本揭露提供之FAP結合劑(例如抗FAP抗體或其抗原結合片段、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白)或醫藥組成物使得疾病症狀之嚴重性降低及疾病、病症、或病況之無症狀期的頻率及持續時間增加,或預防因為疾病或痛苦引起的損傷或殘疾。In some embodiments, the FAP conjugates (e.g., anti-FAP antibodies or their antigen-binding fragments, bispecific antibodies, or their fusion proteins) or pharmaceutical compositions provided in this disclosure, in the "therapeutic effective amount," reduce the severity of disease symptoms and increase the frequency and duration of asymptomatic periods of disease, condition, or illness, or prevent injury or disability caused by disease or suffering.
例如,對於FAP相關腫瘤(包括例如黑素瘤、淋巴瘤、膀胱癌、非小細胞肺癌、頭頸癌、及結腸癌)的治療,相對於未經治療的對象,在一些實施例中,「治療有效量」抑制細胞生長或腫瘤生長至少約10%、至少約20%、至少約30%、至少約40%、至少約50%、至少約60%、至少約70%、或至少約80%。For example, in the treatment of FAP-related tumors (including, for example, melanoma, lymphoma, bladder cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, head and neck cancer, and colon cancer), in some embodiments, the "therapeutic effective dose" inhibits cell growth or tumor growth by at least about 10%, at least about 20%, at least about 30%, at least about 40%, at least about 50%, at least about 60%, at least about 70%, or at least about 80%, relative to untreated subjects.
抑制腫瘤生長的能力可在預測針對人類腫瘤的功效的動物模型系統中進行評估,或藉由偵測抑制細胞生長的能力來評估。此類抑制可藉由所屬技術領域中具有通常知識者熟知的檢定在體外判定。治療有效量的FAP結合劑(例如抗FAP抗體或其抗原結合片段、雙特異性抗體、或其融合蛋白)及醫藥組成物通常能夠減小腫瘤大小,或以其他方式緩解對象之症狀。所屬技術領域中具有通常知識者可根據實際情況(例如對象之腫瘤大小、對象症狀之嚴重性、及所選特定組成物或投予途徑)選擇適合的治療有效劑量。治療處方(例如劑量決定等)可由醫師通常考慮各因子判定,該等因子包括但不限於所治療之疾病、患者之狀態、遞送部位、投予途徑、及其他因子。預防有效量(prophylactically effective amount)係指在所需劑量及一段時間內有效達到所欲預防效果的量。通常但不必然,由於預防劑量係在疾病發作之前或在疾病的早期階段向對象投予的,因此「預防有效量」通常低於「治療有效量」。The ability to inhibit tumor growth can be assessed in animal model systems that predict efficacy against human tumors, or by detecting the ability to inhibit cell growth. Such inhibition can be determined in vitro using tests well-known to those skilled in the art. Therapeutic doses of FAP conjugates (e.g., anti-FAP antibodies or their antigen-binding fragments, bispecific antibodies, or their fusion proteins) and pharmaceutical compositions typically reduce tumor size or otherwise relieve symptoms. Those skilled in the art can select appropriate therapeutic doses based on the specific circumstances (e.g., tumor size, severity of symptoms, and the chosen composition or route of administration). Treatment prescriptions (such as dosage determination) are typically determined by physicians considering various factors, including but not limited to the disease being treated, the patient's condition, the site of administration, the route of delivery, and other factors. The prophylactically effective amount refers to the dose that effectively achieves the desired preventative effect within the required timeframe. Usually, but not always, because the preventative dose is administered before the onset of disease or in its early stages, the "prophylactically effective amount" is usually lower than the "therapeutic effective amount."
對於治療應用,FAP結合劑可以醫藥上可接受之劑型投予患者或對象,例如投予人類或非人類對象。例如,投予可作為推注或藉由在一段時間內連續輸注、經由肌肉、腹膜內、腦脊髓內、皮下、關節內、滑膜內、或鞘內在靜脈內發生。根據本揭露的FAP結合劑及其醫藥組成物特別適合經由腫瘤內、腫瘤周圍、病灶內、或病灶周圍途徑進行投予,以發揮局部以及全身性治療效果。For therapeutic applications, FAP conjugates can be administered to patients or subjects in pharmaceutically acceptable dosage forms, such as human or non-human subjects. For example, administration can be by bolus injection or by continuous infusion over a period of time, via intramuscular, intraperitoneal, intraspinal, subcutaneous, intra-articular, intrasynovial, or intrathecal intravenous routes. The FAP conjugates and pharmaceutical compositions thereof according to this disclosure are particularly suitable for administration via intratumoral, peritumoral, intralesional, or perilesional routes to achieve both local and systemic therapeutic effects.
例示性投予途徑包括腸胃外(例如肌內、靜脈內、動脈內、腹膜內、或皮下)。此外,抗體、片段、接合物、及醫藥組成物可經由脈衝輸注投予,例如,減少抗體、片段、或接合物的劑量。在一些實施例中,經由注射、靜脈內、或皮下注射給予劑量,部分取決於投予係短暫的抑或慢性的。投予的量可取決於多種因子,諸如臨床症狀、患者或對象的體重、及是否投予其他藥物。技術人員將認識到,投予途徑將取決於待治療的病症或病況而變化。Examples of routes of administration include parenteral (e.g., intramuscular, intravenous, intraarterial, intraperitoneal, or subcutaneous). In addition, antibodies, fragments, conjugates, and pharmaceutical compositions can be administered via intravenous infusion, for example, at reduced doses. In some embodiments, the dose is administered by injection, intravenous, or subcutaneous injection, depending in part on whether the administration is transient or chronic. The amount administered can depend on a variety of factors, such as clinical symptoms, patient or subject weight, and whether other medications are being administered. Those skilled in the art will recognize that the route of administration will vary depending on the condition or disease being treated.
可根據需要向對象投予FAP結合劑。投予頻率可由所屬技術領域中具有通常知識者(諸如主治醫師)基於所治療的病況、所治療對象的年齡、所治療病況的嚴重性、所治療對象的一般健康狀態、及類似者的考慮因素來判定。在一些實施例中,一或多次向對象投予有效劑量的FAP結合劑。在一些實施例中,每月一次、少於每月一次(諸如每兩個月或每三個月一次)向對象投予有效劑量的FAP結合劑。在一些實施例中,投予有效劑量的FAP結合劑少於每月一次,諸如每三週一次、每兩週一次、或每週一次。至少一次向對象投予有效劑量的FAP結合劑。在一些實施例中,有效劑量的FAP結合劑可多次投予,包括持續至少一個月、至少六個月、或至少一年的時期。FAP combination therapy may be administered to the recipient as needed. The frequency of administration may be determined by someone with ordinary knowledge in the relevant technical field (such as the attending physician) based on the condition being treated, the age of the recipient, the severity of the condition, the general health status of the recipient, and similar considerations. In some practices, an effective dose of FAP combination therapy may be administered to the recipient once or more. In some practices, an effective dose of FAP combination therapy may be administered to the recipient once a month or less than once a month (e.g., once every two or three months). In some practices, an effective dose of FAP combination therapy may be administered less than once a month, such as once every three weeks, once every two weeks, or once a week. An effective dose of FAP binder shall be administered to the recipient at least once. In some embodiments, the effective dose of FAP binder may be administered multiple times, including for a period of at least one month, at least six months, or at least one year.
在一些實施例中,以有效治療(包括預防)癌症的量投予醫藥組成物。治療有效量一般取決於所治療對象的體重、他或她的身體或健康狀況、所治療病況的範圍、或所治療對象的年齡。適應症In some implementations, pharmaceutical ingredients are administered in doses effective in treating (including preventing) cancer. The effective therapeutic dose generally depends on the patient's weight, his or her physical or health condition, the extent of the condition being treated, or the patient's age. Indications

Example 1 : Generation of anti-FAP antibodies 1.1. Generation and screening of fusion tumors
為了產生針對FAP的抗體,用FAP過度表現細胞對Sprague-Dawley大鼠進行免疫。為了監測免疫反應,一般在免疫4至6週後,由FACS篩選滴定血清與多種FAP過度表現細胞系的結合。選擇具有足夠滴度的抗FAP IgG的動物進行最終免疫。To generate antibodies against FAP, Sprague-Dawley rats were immunized with FAP-overexpressing cells. To monitor the immune response, serum was titrated with various FAP-overexpressing cell lines using FACS screening, typically 4 to 6 weeks after immunization. Animals with sufficient titers of anti-FAP IgG were selected for final immunization.
為了產生融合瘤,收集、單離來自淋巴器官(諸如脾臟及淋巴結)的細胞,且與SP2/0骨髓瘤細胞融合。將所得細胞接種在補充有HAT (Sigma H0262-10VL)的培養基E (StemCell Technologies)中的平底96孔盤中以選擇融合瘤。培養一週之後,收集融合瘤上清液且以流式細胞術篩選過度表現FAP的細胞。隨後對所選擇之融合瘤進行次選殖且進一步篩選以識別抗FAP單株融合瘤。 1.2.表現載體的產生 To generate fusion tumors, cells from lymphoid organs (such as the spleen and lymph nodes) were collected, isolated, and fused with SP2/0 myeloma cells. The resulting cells were seeded in flat-bottomed 96-well plates in StemCell Technologies medium supplemented with HAT (Sigma H0262-10VL) to select fusion tumors. After one week of culture, the supernatant from the fusion tumors was collected, and cells overexpressing FAP were screened by flow cytometry. The selected fusion tumors were then secondary-selected and further screened to identify anti-FAP monoclonal fusion tumors. 1.2. Generation of Expression Vectors
為了獲得重鏈及輕鏈可變域的序列,使用Dynabeads mRNA Direct Micro Purification套組(ThermoFisher #61021)純化來自融合瘤的mRNA,且使用模板轉換寡核苷酸合成及擴增cDNA (Pinto et al., Anal. Biochem. 397, 2010)。隨後對重鏈及輕鏈的可變域片段進行擴增、純化、及定序。To obtain the sequences of the heavy and light chain variable domains, mRNA from fusion tumors was purified using the Dynabeads mRNA Direct Micro Purification kit (ThermoFisher #61021), and cDNA was synthesized and amplified using template-conversion oligonucleotides (Pinto et al., Anal. Biochem. 397, 2010). Subsequently, the variable domain fragments of the heavy and light chains were amplified, purified, and sequenced.
為了產生表現載體,合成重鏈及輕鏈DNA序列的可變區,且將其與人類IgG1恆定重鏈或預插入pCI載體(Promega#E1841)的人類IgG1 κ恆定輕鏈進行框內次選殖。9E3嵌合體(ABC1139)的CDR及可變區係如下所顯示。To generate the expression vector, variable regions of the heavy and light chain DNA sequences were synthesized and then in-frame secondary colonized with either the human IgG1 constant heavy chain or the human IgG1 κ constant light chain pre-inserted into the pCI vector (Promega#E1841). The CDR and variable region structure of the 9E3 chimera (ABC1139) are shown below.

為了使抗體人源化,將輕鏈及重鏈的CDR殘基接枝到具有高度同源性的人類架構上。為了恢復親和力,藉由在具體位置將人類架構殘基改變為其等小鼠對應物來設計一些突變。移除轉譯後修飾(PTM)。To humanize the antibody, CDR residues from both the light and heavy chains were grafted onto highly homologous human structures. To restore affinity, mutations were designed by altering the human structural residues at specific sites to their corresponding mouse counterparts. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) were removed.

將質體共轉染至Expi293F細胞(ThermoFisher A14527)中來產生抗體。具體而言,將30 µg總DNA稀釋到Opti-MEM培養基(Life Technologies)中,且接著與Expifectamine 293轉染試劑(Gibco #A14525)在同一培養基中培養20 min。接著將混合物添加到在37℃及8% CO 2下以250萬個細胞/ml的密度在懸浮液中生長的30 ml Expi293F細胞中。 Antibodies were generated by co-transfecting plasmids into Expi293F cells (ThermoFisher A14527). Specifically, 30 µg of total DNA was diluted in Opti-MEM medium (Life Technologies) and then incubated for 20 min in the same medium as Expifectamine 293 transfection reagent (Gibco #A14525). The mixture was then added to 30 ml of Expi293F cells grown in suspension at 37°C and 8% CO2 at a density of 2.5 million cells/ml.
轉染之後,細胞在懸浮液中生長約六天,且接著藉由在4℃下以7,000 rpm離心20分鐘來進行收取。將上清液通過0.22 µm過濾器過濾,且使用蛋白質A樹脂執行親和純化。將蛋白質用洗提緩衝液(1 M甘胺酸pH 3.0、10%甘油)洗提並用1M Tris pH 7.5中和至pH 6.0。在AKTA上執行粒徑排阻層析法(size exclusion chromatography, SEC)以研磨產物,且用NanoDrop在280 nm處測量抗體濃度。在還原(reducing, R)及非還原(non-reducing, NR)條件下,藉由在4至20% Tris-甘胺酸SDS-PAGE凝膠(Bio-Rad)上進行電泳來分析抗體。 1.5.產生過度表現受體或目標的穩定細胞系 Following transfection, cells were grown in suspension for approximately six days and then harvested by centrifugation at 7,000 rpm for 20 minutes at 4°C. The supernatant was filtered through a 0.22 µm filter and purified using protein A resin for affinity. The protein was eluted with an elution buffer (1 M glycine, pH 3.0, 10% glycerol) and neutralized to pH 6.0 with 1 M Tris at pH 7.5. Size exclusion chromatography (SEC) was performed on an AKTA to grind the products, and antibody concentrations were measured at 280 nm using NanoDrop. Antibodies were analyzed by electrophoresis on 4–20% Tris-glycine SDS-PAGE gels (Bio-Rad) under reducing (R) and non-reducing (NR) conditions. 1.5. Stable cell lines that produce overexpressed receptors or targets
藉由使用lipofectamine 3000按照標準規程將全長人類、食蟹獼猴、或小鼠FAP(表1)轉染到HEK-293T細胞中來產生293T-FAP細胞系。三天之後,將細胞用潮黴素(Millipore Sigma)處理14天以產生穩定細胞系。用類似的程序產生293T-HVEM細胞系及293T-LTβR細胞系。

如圖1A至圖1C及表2所示,嵌合體抗體9E3與人類、食蟹獼猴、及小鼠FAP交叉反應,而人源化抗體ABC1931維持交叉反應性及親和力。 實例2 :免疫細胞介素產生及選擇2.1.免疫細胞介素的產生 As shown in Figures 1A to 1C and Table 2, the chimeric antibody 9E3 cross-reacts with human, cynomolgus monkey, and mouse FAP antibodies, while the humanized antibody ABC1931 maintains both cross-reactivity and affinity. Example 2 : Production and Selection of Immuno-interstitial cells 2.1. Production of Immuno-interstitial cells
人源化9E3的可變域用以產生呈形式A及形式D兩者的免疫細胞介素。按照製造商的建議,藉由將具有不同重鏈(HC)質體比率的質體共轉染到Expi293F細胞(ThermoFisher#A14527)中來產生免疫細胞介素。Expi293F細胞在懸浮液培養物中生長。轉染後六天藉由離心收取上清液,且用0.22 µm過濾器進一步過濾,且以蛋白質A珠純化,且在非還原及還原條件下以SDS-PAGE凝膠進行分析。The variable domain of humanized 9E3 was used to generate immunocytokines in both form A and form D. Immunocytokines were generated by co-transfecting plasmids with different heavy chain (HC) plasmid ratios into Expi293F cells (ThermoFisher#A14527) as recommended by the manufacturer. Expi293F cells were grown in suspension culture. Six days post-transfection, the supernatant was collected by centrifugation, further filtered using a 0.22 µm filter, purified with protein A beads, and analyzed by SDS-PAGE gel under both reducing and non-reducing conditions.
經測試免疫細胞介素顯示於下
表 4 、表4.1、及
表 4.2中。
表4 :經檢定抗體及重鏈/ 輕鏈
圖2及圖6顯示上述免疫細胞介素的形式。形式A:ABC2066、ABC2067;形式D:ABC1930、ABC1773、ABC1947、及ABC2097。Figures 2 and 6 show the forms of the above-mentioned immune intercellular molecules. Form A: ABC2066, ABC2067; Form D: ABC1930, ABC1773, ABC1947, and ABC2097.
在該研究中,將三個串聯連接的人類突變體LIGHT (human mutant LIGHT, hmLIGHT)單元連接到Fc區之N端以與抗FAP人源化9E3半體組裝。結構(形式A)及hmLIGHT突變係基於先前報導的免疫細胞介素(Cancer Cell 29, 285-296, 2016)。然而,在hIgG4 Fc起始殘基中略有差異的兩種形式A的構築體(ABC2066及ABC2067)未能正確組裝,這是因為編碼三個串聯hmLIGHT單元的鏈表現出低表現,即使具有不同的比率。In this study, three tandemly linked human mutant LIGHT (hmLIGHT) units were attached to the N-terminus of the Fc region to assemble with the anti-FAP humanized 9E3 hemisome. The structures (form A) and the hmLIGHT mutant were based on previously reported immunocytokines (Cancer Cell 29, 285-296, 2016). However, the two form A constructs (ABC2066 and ABC2067) with slight differences in the hIgG4 Fc initiation residue failed to assemble correctly because the chains encoding the three tandem hmLIGHT units exhibited low performance, even with different ratios.
相比之下,與ABC2066及ABC2067共享相同抗FAP可變域的呈形式D之ABC1930及ABC1947展示正確的組裝。基於LIGHT的免疫細胞介素的成功表現及正確組裝藉由非還原性凝膠中存在與正確組裝分子的分子量相對應的顯性條帶來證明。由還原蛋白的SDS-PAGE分析揭示的三個條帶進一步支持了正確的組裝,該三個條帶代表兩條不同分子量的重鏈及一條輕鏈(圖6)。In contrast, ABC1930 and ABC1947, which share the same anti-FAP variable domain as ABC2066 and ABC2067, exhibited correct assembly in form D. The successful performance and correct assembly of LIGHT-based immunocytokines were demonstrated by the presence of dominant bands in the non-reducing gel corresponding to the molecular weight of the correctly assembled molecules. Three bands revealed by SDS-PAGE analysis of the reduced proteins further supported correct assembly, representing two heavy chains of different molecular weights and one light chain (Figure 6).
此外,除了所欲的受體選擇性外,具有LIGHT1突變體(縮寫為mu1或LIGHTmu1或LIGHT1)的ABC1930展現出比具有野生型LIGHT(縮寫為wt或LIGHTwt)的ABC1947高3倍的表現(圖7A及圖7B)。In addition to the desired receptor selectivity, ABC1930 with the LIGHT1 mutant (abbreviated as mu1 or LIGHTmu1 or LIGHT1) exhibited 3 times higher performance than ABC1947 with wild-type LIGHT (abbreviated as wt or LIGHTwt) (Figs. 7A and 7B).
與LIGHTmu1相比,淋巴毒素-αββ對LTßR具有與HVEM及DcR3相似的受體結合選擇性,在提供抗腫瘤效果方面潛在地提供增強的安全性及功效。ABC2097係一種具有呈形式D的淋巴毒素-αββ的免疫細胞介素,亦可產生表現,儘管產率較低(圖7A及圖7B)。Compared to LIGHTmu1, lymphotoxin-αββ exhibits receptor-binding selectivity for LTβR similar to that of HVEM and DcR3, potentially offering enhanced safety and efficacy in providing antitumor effects. ABC2097, an immunocytokine possessing lymphotoxin-αββ in form D, also produces efficacies, albeit at a lower yield (Figures 7A and 7B).
ABC1930中的LIGHTmu1突變體具有如SEQ ID NO: 17所示之胺基酸序列,且ABC1947中的野生型LIGHT具有如SEQ ID NO: 18所示之胺基酸序列。 2.2.由BLI測定的FAP結合 The LIGHTmu1 mutant in ABC1930 has the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 17, and the wild-type LIGHT in ABC1947 has the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 18. 2.2. FAP binding determined by BLI
在30℃下在Octet RH16系統(Sartorius)上執行動力學檢定,且在PBST緩衝液(含0.02% Tween-20的PBS,pH 7.4)中以1000 rpm的軌道振動速度稀釋樣本。為了評估ABC1930與FAP重組蛋白質之間的結合動力學,將Ni-NTA生物感測器(Sartorius, 18-5101)加載10 ug/mL His標記的FAP抗原蛋白質(人類或食蟹獼猴或小鼠)至1.0 nm的密度,隨後在PBST緩衝液中進行60秒的基線步驟。接著將FAP捕獲的生物感測器浸入在含有不同濃度ABC1930的孔中2分鐘,隨後在PBST緩衝液中解離4分鐘。亦將FAP捕獲的感測器浸入含有PBST緩衝液的孔中,以允許單一參考扣除,以補償捕獲的FAP的自然解離。感測圖以緩衝液為空白參考,且用1:1模型進行全域擬合,以使用Data Analysis軟體(Fortebio/Sartorius)提取動力學參數。參見圖3A及表3。 2.3由BLI測定的LTßR及HVEM結合 Kinetic assays were performed at 30°C on an Octet RH16 system (Sartorius), with samples diluted in PBST buffer (PBS containing 0.02% Tween-20, pH 7.4) at a track vibration speed of 1000 rpm. To evaluate the binding dynamics between ABC1930 and FAP recombinant proteins, a Ni-NTA biosensor (Sartorius, 18-5101) was loaded with 10 ug/mL His-labeled FAP antigen protein (human, cynomolgus monkey, or mouse) to a density of 1.0 nm, followed by a baseline step in PBST buffer for 60 seconds. Next, the FAP-captured biosensors were immersed in wells containing different concentrations of ABC1930 for 2 minutes, followed by dissociation in PBST buffer for 4 minutes. The FAP-captured biosensors were also immersed in wells containing PBST buffer to allow for single-reference subtraction to compensate for the natural dissociation of captured FAP. Sensing plots were performed globally using the buffer as a blank reference and a 1:1 model was used to extract kinetic parameters using Data Analysis software (Fortebio/Sartorius).

使用EZ-Link Sulfo-NHS-生物素套組(#21925, Thermo scientific)對LTßR-Fc蛋白質進行生物素化。將Streptavidin Biosensor (ForteBio)浸泡在PBST緩衝液中進行檢定。首先,將感測器在PBST緩衝液中沖洗180秒,作為基線。其次,用經生物素化目標蛋白(20 µg/ml)將感測器固定200秒。接著,將感測器在PBST緩衝液中再洗滌60秒。最後,將感測器暴露於一系列稀釋的免疫細胞介素,最大濃度為100 nM。監測各濃度的免疫細胞介素的締合180秒,隨後在PBST緩衝液中解離180秒。為了洗去免疫細胞介素,將SA生物感測器浸入3 M MgCl 2中10秒,重複3次。感測圖以緩衝液為空白參考,且用1:1模型進行全域擬合,以使用Data Analysis軟體(Fortebio/Sartorius)提取動力學參數。 The LTßR-Fc protein was biotinylated using the EZ-Link Sulfo-NHS-Biotin kit (#21925, Thermo Scientific). The Streptavidin Biosensor (ForteBio) was then immersed in PBST buffer for assay. First, the sensor was rinsed in PBST buffer for 180 seconds as a baseline. Next, the sensor was fixed with the biotinylated target protein (20 µg/ml) for 200 seconds. Then, the sensor was rinsed again in PBST buffer for 60 seconds. Finally, the sensor was exposed to a series of diluted immunocytokines, up to a maximum concentration of 100 nM. The binding of immunocytokines at various concentrations was monitored for 180 seconds, followed by dissociation in PBST buffer for 180 seconds. To wash away the immunocytokines, the SA biosensor was immersed in 3 M MgCl2 for 10 seconds, repeated 3 times. The sensor map was used as a blank reference with the buffer and fitted globally using a 1:1 model to extract kinetic parameters using Data Analysis software (Fortebio/Sartorius).
HVEM-His蛋白質係購自Sino Biological(目錄編號10334-H08H、90109-C08B、10567-M08H)。將Ni-NTA生物感測器(Sartorius, 18-5101)加載10 ug/mL His標記的HVEM蛋白質(人類或食蟹獼猴或小鼠)至1.0 nm的密度,隨後在PBST緩衝液中進行60秒基線步驟。接著將生物感測器浸入含有不同濃度ABC1930或ABC1947的孔中2分鐘,隨後在PBST緩衝液中解離4分鐘。為了解釋捕獲的HVEM的解離,亦將感測器浸入含有PBST緩衝液的孔中以進行單一參考扣除。感測圖以緩衝液為空白參考,且用1:1模型進行全域擬合,以使用Data Analysis軟體(Fortebio/Sartorius)提取動力學參數。參見圖3B至圖3C及表3。 2.4由ELISA測定的DcR3結合 The HVEM-His protein was purchased from Sino Biological (catalog numbers 10334-H08H, 90109-C08B, 10567-M08H). A Ni-NTA biosensor (Sartorius, 18-5101) was loaded with 10 μg/mL His-labeled HVEM protein (human, cynomolgus monkey, or mouse) to a density of 1.0 nm, followed by a 60-second baseline step in PBST buffer. The biosensor was then immersed in wells containing different concentrations of ABC1930 or ABC1947 for 2 minutes, followed by dissociation in PBST buffer for 4 minutes. To explain the dissociation of captured HVEMs, the sensor was also immersed in a well containing PBST buffer for single-reference subtraction. Sensing plots were performed globally using the buffer as a blank reference and a 1:1 model was used to extract kinetic parameters using Data Analysis software (Fortebio/Sartorius). See Figures 3B to 3C and Table 3. 2.4 DcR3 binding as determined by ELISA
DcR3係在人類及食蟹獼猴中表現但在小鼠中不存在的可溶性蛋白質。DcR3負向調控LIGHT活化LTβR及HVEM的能力(Liu et al., 2021),且在某些自體發炎性疾病及癌症患者中表現上調(Fuchsberger et al., 2021)。與DcR3與LIGHTmu1之結合親和力低於野生型LIGHT一致,DcR3與ABC1930的結合顯著弱於與ABC1947之結合。DcR3 is a soluble protein present in humans and cynomolgus monkeys but absent in mice. DcR3 negatively regulates the ability of LIGHT to activate LTβR and HVEM (Liu et al., 2021), and is upregulated in some autoinflammatory diseases and cancer patients (Fuchsberger et al., 2021). Consistent with the lower binding affinity of DcR3 to LIGHTmu1 compared to wild-type LIGHT, the binding of DcR3 to ABC1930 is significantly weaker than its binding to ABC1947.
藉由將人類DcR3殘基33-300融合至兔Fc之N端來產生重組DcR3蛋白。重組蛋白質在Expi293F中表現且由蛋白質A柱進行親和純化,且基於Superdex 200收集單體。Recombinant DcR3 protein was generated by fusing human DcR3 residue 33-300 to the N-terminus of rabbit Fc. The recombinant protein was expressed in Expi293F and affinity purified by protein A-pillar, and monomers were collected using Superdex 200.
將DcR3蛋白以2 µg/mL的濃度固定在maxiSorp 96孔ELISA盤(Thermo Fisher)上,且接著用0.5% BSA-PBST緩衝液阻斷一小時。將生物素化的基於LIGHT的免疫細胞介素(EZ-Link Sulfo-NHS-生物素套組,#21925,Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL, USA)以各種稀釋度添加到盤中,最大濃度為10 nM。將盤培養一小時,用PBST洗滌四次,且進一步與HRP接合的鏈黴抗生物素(Acrobiosystems, #STN-NH913)一起培養,且再次用PBST洗滌。將TMB受質(#34029,Thermo Fisher)添加到盤中,且在SpectraMax M5微量盤讀取儀(Molecular Devices)上以450 nM讀取盤。參見圖4。DcR3 protein was immobilized at a concentration of 2 µg/mL on a maxiSorp 96-well ELISA plate (Thermo Fisher) and then buffered with 0.5% BSA-PBST for one hour. Biotinylated LIGHT-based immunocytokines (EZ-Link Sulfo-NHS-Biotin Kit, #21925, Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL, USA) were added to the plates at various dilutions, up to a maximum concentration of 10 nM. The plates were incubated for one hour, washed four times with PBST, and then further incubated with HRP-conjugated strepto-acid (Acrobiosystems, #STN-NH913) and washed again with PBST. Add the TMB substrate (#34029, Thermo Fisher) to the disk and read the disk at 450 nM using a SpectraMax M5 Molecular Devices reader. See Figure 4.
FAP、LTßR、HVEM、及DcR3結合的結果係彙總於表3。
表3 :FAP 、LTßR 、HVEM 、及DcR3 結合
ABC1930與LTßR結合而不與HVEM及DcR3接合,潛在地在提供抗腫瘤效果方面提供增強的安全性及功效。 2.5由ELISA測定的DPPIV結合 ABC1930 binds to LTßR but not to HVEM and DcR3, potentially offering enhanced safety and efficacy in providing antitumor effects. 2.5 DPPIV binding as determined by ELISA
與人類FAP相似性最高的蛋白質係DPPIV。為了測試ABC1930之特異性,執行DPPIV ELISA。The protein most similar to human FAP is DPPIV. To test the specificity of ABC1930, a DPPIV ELISA was performed.
人類FAP及DPPIV蛋白係以0.5 µg/mL的濃度固定在MaxiSorp 96孔ELISA盤上,接著用0.5% BSA-PBST緩衝液阻斷一小時。將ABC1930以一系列稀釋度添加到盤中,最大濃度為50 nM。將盤培養一小時,用PBST洗滌四次,且進一步與HRP接合的驢抗人類IgG (H+L)抗體(Jackson Immunoresearch, #709-035-149)一起培養,隨後用PBST再洗滌四次。將TMB受質(#34029,Thermo Fisher)添加到盤中,且在SpectraMax M5微量盤讀取儀(Molecular Devices)上以450 nM讀取盤。Human FAP and DPPIV proteins were immobilized at a concentration of 0.5 µg/mL on MaxiSorp 96-well ELISA plates, followed by one hour of inhibition with 0.5% BSA-PBST buffer. ABC1930 was added to the plates at a series of dilutions, with a maximum concentration of 50 nM. The plates were incubated for one hour, washed four times with PBST, and further cultured with HRP-conjugated donkey anti-human IgG (H+L) antibody (Jackson Immunoresearch, #709-035-149), followed by four more washes with PBST. Add the TMB substrate (#34029, Thermo Fisher) to the disk and read the disk at 450 nM on a SpectraMax M5 Molecular Devices micro disk reader.
如圖5所顯示,ABC1930與人類FAP結合,但不與DPPIV結合。 實例3 :使用經工程改造細胞系的功能檢定3.1評估ABC1931、ABC1773、及ABC1930對內源小鼠LTβR路徑之順式活化,其使用CCL2作為替代讀出 As shown in Figure 5, ABC1930 binds to human FAP but not to DPPIV. Example 3 : Functional assay using engineered cell lines 3.1 Evaluation of cis-activation of the endogenous mouse LTβR pathway by ABC1931, ABC1773, and ABC1930 using CCL2 as a surrogate readout
使用兩種小鼠細胞系BALB/c-3T3-FAP (LTβR+ HVEM- FAP+)及BALB/c-3T3 (LTβR+ HVEM- FAP-)研究ABC1931、ABC1773、及ABC1930對活化內源小鼠LTβR之效應。藉由用小鼠FAP(縮寫為mFAP)轉染BALB/c-3T3細胞(ATCC)產生BALB/c-3T3-FAP細胞系,選擇且確認該細胞系的mFAP表現。將細胞以每孔4,000個細胞接種於96孔組織培養盤中,且與不同濃度的抗FAP-LIGHT免疫細胞介素在37℃下培養24小時。離心之後,收集上清液以由具有Tecan Spark讀取儀的ELISA(目錄號432704,Biolegend)定量CCL2蛋白之水平。The effects of ABC1931, ABC1773, and ABC1930 on activated endogenous mouse LTβR were investigated using two mouse cell lines, BALB/c-3T3-FAP (LTβR+ HVEM- FAP+) and BALB/c-3T3 (LTβR+ HVEM- FAP-). BALB/c-3T3-FAP cell lines were generated by transfecting BALB/c-3T3 cells (ATCC) with mouse FAP (mFAP), and mFAP expression in these cell lines was selected and confirmed. Cells were seeded at 4,000 cells per well in 96-well tissue culture dishes and cultured at 37°C for 24 hours with different concentrations of anti-FAP-LIGHT immunocytokines. After centrifugation, the supernatant was collected to quantify the level of CCL2 protein using an ELISA (catalog number 432704, Biolegend) with a Tecan Spark reader.
圖8A至圖8C顯示無論FAP表現如何,ABC1931均不誘導CCL2產生。然而,當細胞表現FAP及LTβR兩者時,ABC1930更顯著地活化LTβR信號傳導(>1000x),表明存在順式活化。非標靶對照ABC1773(抗FAP-LIGHTmu1)未能展現該順式活化。由於腫瘤微環境中的癌相關纖維母細胞(cancer-associate fibroblast, CAF)在腫瘤生物學中發揮重要作用,且具有共表現FAP及LTβR兩者的潛力,因此ABC1930將優先刺激腫瘤微環境中FAP+ LTβR + CAF中的LTβR。 3.2評估ABC1931、ABC1773、及ABC1930對內源小鼠LTβR路徑之反式活化,其使用CCL2作為替代讀出 Figures 8A to 8C show that ABC1931 does not induce CCL2 production regardless of FAP expression. However, when cells express both FAP and LTβR, ABC1930 significantly activates LTβR signaling (>1000x), indicating cis activation. The non-target control ABC1773 (anti-FAP-LIGHTmu1) failed to exhibit this cis activation. Since cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in the tumor microenvironment play a crucial role in tumor biology and have the potential to co-express both FAP and LTβR, ABC1930 will preferentially stimulate LTβR in FAP + LTβR + CAF within the tumor microenvironment. 3.2 The transactivation of the endogenous mouse LTβR pathway by ABC1931, ABC1773, and ABC1930 was evaluated, using CCL2 as a surrogate readout.
為了研究反式表現的FAP對BALB/c-3T3-WT (LTβR+ HVEM- FAP-)細胞中內源LTβR路徑活化之效應,藉由使用lipofectamine 3000及抗生素選擇用含有小鼠FAP基因的質體穩定轉染CT26細胞(ATCC)來產生CT26-FAP細胞系。本發明人證實,在基於LIGHT的免疫細胞介素刺激之後,僅3T3細胞而非CT26-WT或CT26-FAP可表現CCL2。To investigate the effect of trans-expressed FAP on the activation of the endogenous LTβR pathway in BALB/c-3T3-WT (LTβR+ HVEM- FAP-) cells, the CT26-FAP cell line was generated by selectively transfecting CT26 cells (ATCC) with plasmids containing the mouse FAP gene using lipofectamine 3000 and antibiotics. The inventors demonstrated that, following LIGHT-based immune cytokine stimulation, only 3T3 cells, not CT26-WT or CT26-FAP, expressed CCL2.
將CT26-WT或CT26-FAP細胞以10,000/孔接種在96孔組織培養盤中,且與連續稀釋的ABC1931、ABC1773、及ABC1930在37℃、5% CO 2下一起培養一小時。接著將4,000個BALB/c-3T3細胞作為應答細胞添加到培養物中。執行ELISA檢定(目錄號432704,Biolegend),以測量培養基中之CCL2蛋白水平作為LTβR路徑活化之替代讀出。 CT26-WT or CT26-FAP cells were seeded at 10,000 cells/well in 96-well tissue culture dishes and co-cultured with serially diluted ABC1931, ABC1773, and ABC1930 at 37°C and 5% CO2 for one hour. Then, 4,000 BALB/c-3T3 cells were added to the culture as responders. An ELISA assay (catalog number 432704, Biolegend) was performed to measure CCL2 protein levels in the medium as a surrogate read for LTβR pathway activation.
如圖9A至圖9C所顯示,在CT26-FAP細胞存在下,ABC1930更顯著地活化LTβR信號傳導(>100x),表明存在反式活化。非標靶對照ABC1773(對照抗體-LIGHTmu1)未能展現該反式活化。 實例4 :KPC 小鼠模型中之體內評估 As shown in Figures 9A to 9C, in the presence of CT26-FAP cells, ABC1930 significantly activated LTβR signaling (>100x), indicating transactivation. The non-target control ABC1773 (control antibody-LIGHTmu1) failed to exhibit this transactivation. Example 4 : In vivo evaluation in a KPC mouse model.
KPC0826細胞系來源於市售的KPC細胞系,該KPC細胞系係衍生自基因改造的KPC腫瘤模型。KPC0826係衍生自該商業細胞系使用先前發布的規程建立的侵襲性KPC腫瘤塊(Beatty et al., 2011)。為了建立皮下KPC0826腫瘤模型,將50 µl HBSS中的250萬個KPC0826細胞與50 µl基質膠混合並植入C57BL/6小鼠的側腹中。建立的皮下KPC0826腫瘤模型顯示FAP+ CAF細胞相對較高的存在,約占腫瘤組織總解離細胞的1至5%(數據未顯示)。在第0天,當腫瘤體積達到平均約113 mm 3時,基於體重及腫瘤體積將小鼠分為6組:G1_緩衝液、G2_GEM(吉西他濱)、G3_ABC1931、G4_ABC1931 + GEM、G5_ABC1930、及G6_ABC1930 + GEM,每組六隻小鼠。用0.75奈莫耳的各別大分子每週治療小鼠兩次,共7個劑量,對應於ABC1931的5.4 mg/kg及ABC1930的7.25 mg/kg的劑量。GEM係以75 mg/kg給予。藉由在指定時間點使用卡尺測量腫瘤體積來監測腫瘤生長,直到第24天。使用下式計算腫瘤體積:長x寬 2/2。將腫瘤生長抑制(tumor growth inhibition, TGI)與對照組(G1_緩衝液)比較,且使用DRAP R軟體包進行計算(J Transl Med 17, 39, 2019)。 The KPC0826 cell line was derived from a commercially available KPC cell line derived from a genetically modified KPC tumor model. The KPC0826 line was derived from an invasive KPC tumor mass established using this commercial cell line according to previously published procedures (Beatty et al., 2011). To establish a subcutaneous KPC0826 tumor model, 2.5 million KPC0826 cells in 50 µl of HBSS were mixed with 50 µl of matrix gel and implanted into the flank of C57BL/6 mice. The established subcutaneous KPC0826 tumor model showed a relatively high presence of FAP+ CAF cells, accounting for approximately 1% to 5% of the total dissociated cells in the tumor tissue (data not shown). On day 0, when the tumor volume reached an average of approximately 113 mm³ , mice were randomly assigned to six groups based on body weight and tumor volume: G1_blended fluid, G2_GEM (gemcitabine), G3_ABC1931, G4_ABC1931 + GEM, G5_ABC1930, and G6_ABC1930 + GEM, with six mice in each group. Mice were treated twice weekly with 0.75 nanomolar of each macromolecule for a total of seven doses, corresponding to 5.4 mg/kg of ABC1931 and 7.25 mg/kg of ABC1930. GEM was administered at 75 mg/kg. Tumor growth was monitored by measuring tumor volume with calipers at specified time points until day 24. Tumor volume was calculated using the formula: length x width² /2. Tumor growth inhibition (TGI) was compared with the control group (G1 buffer), and the calculations were performed using the DRAP R software package (J Transl Med 17, 39, 2019).
如圖10A至圖10C所顯示,結果表明,ABC1930在KPC0826模型中表現出良好的單藥抗腫瘤活性,TGI達到80%以上。ABC1930與GEM的組合進一步抑制了腫瘤生長。 實例5 :LL2 腫瘤模型中之體內評估 As shown in Figures 10A to 10C, the results indicate that ABC1930 exhibited good single-agent antitumor activity in the KPC0826 model, with a TGI exceeding 80%. The combination of ABC1930 and GEM further inhibited tumor growth. Example 5 : In vivo evaluation in the LL2 tumor model
為了建立皮下LL2腫瘤模型,將50 µl HBSS中的12萬個LL2細胞與50 µl基質膠混合並植入C57LB/6小鼠的側腹中。在第0天,當腫瘤體積達到平均約40 mm 3時,基於體重及腫瘤體積將小鼠分為3組:G1_Ctrl(媒劑)、G2_ABC1930(抗FAP-LIGHT mu1)、G3_ABC1773(對照抗體-LIGHT mu1),每組六隻小鼠。用0.25奈莫耳的各別大分子每週治療小鼠兩次,共3個劑量,對應於ABC1930及ABC1773的2.417 mg/kg的劑量。藉由在指定時間點使用卡尺測量腫瘤體積來監測腫瘤生長,直到第12天。使用下式計算腫瘤體積:長x寬 2/2。 To establish a subcutaneous LL2 tumor model, 120,000 LL2 cells from 50 µl of HBSS were mixed with 50 µl of matrix gel and implanted into the flank of C57LB/6 mice. On day 0, when the tumor volume reached an average of approximately 40 mm³ , the mice were divided into three groups based on body weight and tumor volume: G1_Ctrl (mediator), G2_ABC1930 (anti-FAP-LIGHT mu1), and G3_ABC1773 (control antibody-LIGHT mu1), with six mice in each group. Mice were treated twice weekly with 0.25 nanomolar of each macromolecule for a total of three doses, corresponding to a dose of 2.417 mg/kg for ABC1930 and ABC1773. Tumor growth was monitored by measuring tumor volume with calipers at specified time points until day 12. The tumor volume was calculated using the following formula: length x width² /2.
結果表明,ABC1930免疫細胞介素在LL2模型中表現出顯著的單藥抗腫瘤活性,比非標靶對照分子ABC1773更有效。The results showed that ABC1930 immunocytokines exhibited significant single-drug antitumor activity in the LL2 model, and were more effective than the non-target control molecule ABC1773.

Figure 11A outlines the treatment timeline. Figure 11B shows the individual tumor volume in each group. Figure 11C shows the mean tumor volume in each group. Example 6 : In vivo assessment in the LL2-OVA tumor model.
為了建立皮下LL2-OVA腫瘤模型,將50 µl HBSS中的12萬個LL2-OVA細胞與50 µl基質膠混合並植入C57LB/6小鼠的側腹中。在第0天,當腫瘤體積達到平均約80 mm 3時,基於體重及腫瘤體積將小鼠分為4組:G1_Ctrl(媒劑)、G2_ABC092(抗PD1)、G3_ABC1930(抗FAP-LIGHT mu1)、G4_ABC1930(抗FAP-LIGHT mu1)+ ABC092(抗PD1),每組五隻小鼠。在第0天及第5天對小鼠進行治療,共2個劑量。藉由在指定時間點使用卡尺測量腫瘤體積來監測腫瘤生長,直到第8天。使用下式計算腫瘤體積:長x寬 2/2。 To establish a subcutaneous LL2-OVA tumor model, 120,000 LL2-OVA cells from 50 µl of HBSS were mixed with 50 µl of matrix gel and implanted into the flank of C57LB/6 mice. On day 0, when the tumor volume reached an average of approximately 80 mm³ , the mice were divided into four groups based on body weight and tumor volume: G1_Ctrl (mediator), G2_ABC092 (anti-PD1), G3_ABC1930 (anti-FAP-LIGHT mu1), and G4_ABC1930 (anti-FAP-LIGHT mu1) + ABC092 (anti-PD1), with five mice in each group. The mice were treated with two doses on days 0 and 5. Tumor growth was monitored by measuring tumor volume with calipers at specified time points until day 8. The tumor volume was calculated using the following formula: length x width² /2.
ABC092係衍生自於公認且廣泛使用的抗小鼠抗PD1抗體(稱為殖株RPM1-14)。ABC092之重鏈包括如SEQ ID NO: 19所示之胺基酸序列,ABC 092之輕鏈包括如SEQ ID NO: 20所示之胺基酸序列。ABC092 is derived from a recognized and widely used anti-mouse anti-PD1 antibody (referred to as strain RPM1-14). The heavy chain of ABC092 includes the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 19, and the light chain of ABC092 includes the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 20.
單獨的ABC092抗PD1在短的治療時段內未顯示出顯著效果。相反,ABC1930表現出顯著的單藥活性及與抗PD1的輕微協同作用。ABC092 alone did not show significant efficacy against PD-1 in a short treatment period. In contrast, ABC1930 showed significant monotherapy activity and mild synergistic effect with anti-PD-1.

Figure 12A summarizes the treatment timeline and dosage. Figure 12B shows the individual tumor volume in each group. Figure 12C shows the mean tumor volume in each group. Example 7 : In vivo assessment in the subcutaneous EMT6 tumor model.
為了建立皮下EMT6腫瘤模型,將50 µl HBSS中的50萬個EMT6細胞與50 µl基質膠混合並植入BALB/c小鼠的側腹中。在第0天,當腫瘤體積達到平均約92 mm 3時,基於體重及腫瘤體積將小鼠分為4組:G1_媒劑(對照)、G2_ABC1930(抗FAP-LIGHT mu1)、G3_ABC727(抗PDL1)、G4_ABC1930(抗FAP-LIGHT mu1)+ ABC727(抗PDL1),每組六隻小鼠。每週治療小鼠兩次,共4個劑量。藉由在指定時間點使用卡尺測量腫瘤體積來監測腫瘤生長,直到第14天。使用下式計算腫瘤體積:長x寬 2/2。 To establish a subcutaneous EMT6 tumor model, 500,000 EMT6 cells from 50 µl of HBSS were mixed with 50 µl of matrix gel and implanted into the flank of BALB/c mice. On day 0, when the tumor volume reached an average of approximately 92 mm³ , mice were divided into four groups based on body weight and tumor volume: G1_mediator (control), G2_ABC1930 (anti-FAP-LIGHT mu1), G3_ABC727 (anti-PDL1), and G4_ABC1930 (anti-FAP-LIGHT mu1) + ABC727 (anti-PDL1), with six mice in each group. Mice were treated twice a week for a total of four doses. Tumor growth was monitored by measuring tumor volume with calipers at specified time points until day 14. Calculate tumor volume using the following formula: length x width² /2.
ABC727係衍生自Roche的阿替利珠單抗,具有包括如SEQ ID NO: 21所示之胺基酸序列的重鏈、及包括如SEQ ID NO: 22所示之胺基酸序列的輕鏈。ABC727 is an atezolizumab derived from Roche, having a heavy chain including the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 21 and a light chain including the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 22.
在EMT6皮下模型中,ABC1930及抗PDL1兩者皆展現出單一藥劑活性。該組合進一步加深了抗腫瘤反應。因此,到第14天,抗PDL1組中6個腫瘤中有1個消退,且在組合組中6個腫瘤中有2個消退。In the EMT6 subcutaneous model, both ABC1930 and anti-PDL1 exhibited single-drug activity. This combination further enhanced the antitumor response. Consequently, by day 14, one of the six tumors in the anti-PDL1 group and two of the six tumors in the combination group had regressed.

以下係對圖式的簡要描述,該等圖式係出於說明本文揭示的例示性實施例的目的而非出於限制該等例示性實施例的目的而呈現的。 [圖1A]至[圖1C]顯示如藉由FACS偵測之9E3嵌合體及ABC1931之細胞結合曲線。 [圖2]顯示抗FAP-LIGHT融合蛋白ABC1930之示意性結構。 [圖3A]至[圖3B]顯示使用ABC1930之連續稀釋液的固定化FAP或LTßR ECD蛋白之生物膜干涉技術(biolayer interferometry, BLI)感測圖。[圖3C]繪示使用ABC1947或ABC1930之連續稀釋液的固定化HVEM ECD蛋白之BLI感測圖。 [圖4]顯示如藉由ELISA偵測之ABC1930或ABC1947與經塗佈DcR3蛋白之結合。 [圖5]顯示如藉由ELISA偵測之ABC1930與經塗佈人類FAP或DPPIV蛋白之結合。 [圖6]顯示實例2.1中產生之融合蛋白之示意性形式A及D。SDS-PAGE結果指示,具有LIGHTmu1或LIGHTwt之形式D經正確組裝,而形式A中編碼三個串聯hmLIGHT單元之鏈展現出低表現,導致兩個構築體組裝不良。 [圖7A]顯示在蛋白質A純化之後ABC2097、ABC1930、及ABC1947之產率比較。[圖7B]展示此等蛋白質之SDS-PAGE凝膠影像。 [圖8A]至[圖8C]分別顯示由ABC1931、ABC1773、及ABC1930自3T3細胞系及3T3-FAP細胞系兩者誘導的CCL2產生。 [圖9A]至[圖9C]分別顯示在用ABC1931、ABC1773、或ABC1930治療後,CT26-FAP細胞對3T3細胞中內源LTβR路徑之反式活化,其使用CCL2作為替代讀出。 [圖10A]顯示KPC小鼠模型中用於體內評估的投予排程。[圖10B]至[圖10C]顯示KPC腫瘤模型中的腫瘤體積-時間曲線。 [圖11A]顯示LL2腫瘤模型中用於體內評估的投予排程。[圖11B]至[圖11C]顯示LL2腫瘤模型中的腫瘤體積-時間曲線。 [圖12A]顯示LL2-OVA腫瘤模型中用於體內評估的投予排程。[圖12B]至[圖12C]顯示LL2-OVA腫瘤模型中的腫瘤體積-時間曲線。 [圖13A]顯示皮下EMT6腫瘤模型中用於體內評估的投予排程。[圖13B]至[圖13C]顯示EMT6腫瘤模型中的腫瘤體積-時間曲線。 The following is a brief description of the figures, which are presented for illustrative purposes only and not for limiting the illustrative embodiments disclosed herein. [Figure 1A] through [Figure 1C] show the cell-binding curves of the 9E3 chimera and ABC1931 as detected by FACS. [Figure 2] shows a schematic structure of the anti-FAP-LIGHT fusion protein ABC1930. [Figure 3A] through [Figure 3B] show biolayer interferometry (BLI) sensing maps of immobilized FAP or LTßR ECD proteins using continuously diluted solutions of ABC1930. [Figure 3C] shows a BLI sensing map of immobilized HVEM ECD proteins using continuously diluted solutions of ABC1947 or ABC1930. [Figure 4] Shows the binding of ABC1930 or ABC1947, detected by ELISA, to the coated DcR3 protein. [Figure 5] Shows the binding of ABC1930, detected by ELISA, to the coated human FAP or DPPIV protein. [Figure 6] Shows schematic forms A and D of the fusion protein generated in Example 2.1. SDS-PAGE results indicate that form D, with LIGHTmu1 or LIGHTwt, was correctly assembled, while the chain encoding three tandem hmLIGHT units in form A showed low performance, resulting in poor assembly of the two structures. [Figure 7A] Shows a comparison of the yields of ABC2097, ABC1930, and ABC1947 after purification of protein A. [Figure 7B] shows SDS-PAGE gel images of these proteins. [Figures 8A] through [Figure 8C] show CCL2 production induced by ABC1931, ABC1773, and ABC1930 from both the 3T3 and 3T3-FAP cell lines, respectively. [Figures 9A] through [Figure 9C] show the transactivation of the endogenous LTβR pathway in 3T3 cells by CT26-FAP cells after treatment with ABC1931, ABC1773, or ABC1930, using CCL2 as a substitute readout. [Figure 10A] shows the administration schedule used for in vivo evaluation in a KPC mouse model. [Figures 10B] through 10C show the tumor volume-time curve in the KPC tumor model. [Figure 11A] shows the administration schedule used for in vivo assessment in the LL2 tumor model. [Figures 11B] through 11C show the tumor volume-time curve in the LL2 tumor model. [Figure 12A] shows the administration schedule used for in vivo assessment in the LL2-OVA tumor model. [Figures 12B] through 12C show the tumor volume-time curve in the LL2-OVA tumor model. [Figure 13A] shows the administration schedule used for in vivo assessment in the subcutaneous EMT6 tumor model. Figures 13B to 13C show the tumor volume-time curves in the EMT6 tumor model.
