Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an anti-FR ⁇ antibody, an antibody-drug conjugate comprising the anti-FR ⁇ antibody and uses thereof.
  • Folate an essential vitamin required for DNA synthesis and repair, cell division processes, is transported by endocytosis by binding to folate receptors on the cell surface, where folate receptors are internalized and then recycled back to the cell membrane.
  • the folate receptor is a transmembrane single-chain glycoprotein linked to glycosylated phosphatidylinositol and has a high affinity for folate.
  • Folate receptors include three subtypes, namely folate receptor ⁇ (Folate Receptor ⁇ , FOLR1, FR ⁇ ), folate receptor ⁇ (Folate Receptor ⁇ , FOLR2) and folate receptor ⁇ (Folate Receptor ⁇ , FOLR3).
  • the expression of folate receptors is highly restricted in normal cells, but significantly high in tumor cells. Overexpression of folate receptor ⁇ has been found in a variety of malignant tumors, so it has become one of the popular targets of anticancer drugs.
  • the present invention provides an antibody that specifically recognizes and binds to folate receptor ⁇ (also known as "anti-folate receptor ⁇ antibody” or “anti-FR ⁇ antibody”).
  • the antibodies of the invention are capable of recognizing and binding to human folate receptor alpha.

具体实施方式
除非另有定义,本发明中使用的科学和技术术语的含义是本领域技术人员所通常理解的含义。通常,本文所述的细胞培养、分子生物学以及蛋白质纯化使用的命名和技术是本领域公知且普遍使用的。对于重组DNA、寡核苷酸合成和细胞培养与转化(如电穿孔、脂质转染),使用了标准技术。酶促反应和纯化技术根据生产商的说明书或本领域普遍使用或本文所述的方法进行。前述技术和方法通常根据本领域公知且本说明书中引用和讨论的多部综合和较具体的文献中描述的那样使用。参见例如Sambrook等,Molecular Cloning:A Laboratory Manual(《分子克隆:实验室手册》)(第2版,冷泉港实验室出版社(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press),纽约冷泉港(1989))。
定义
应当注意的是,术语“一种”实体是指一种或多种该实体,例如“一种抗体”应当被理解为一种或多种抗体,因此,术语“一种”(或“一个”)、“一种或多种”和“至少一种”可以在本文中互换使用。
本文所用的术语“包含”或“包括”意味着抗体、组合物或方法等包括所列举的元素,例如组份或步骤,但不排除其它。“基本上由……组成”意味着抗体、组合物或方法等排除对组合的特征有根本影响的其它元素,但不排除对抗体、组合物或方法等无本质上影响的元素。“由……组成”意味着排除未特别列举的元素。
本文所用术语“抗体”指免疫球蛋白(Ig)分子和免疫球蛋白分子的免疫活性部分,即包含特异性结合抗原(与其免疫反应)的抗原结合位点的分子。“特异性结合”或“发生免疫反应”或“针对”是指抗体与目标抗原的一个或多个抗原决定簇反应且不与其它多肽反应,或者以很低亲和力(KD>10 -6g/ml)与其它多肽结合。抗体包括但不限于单克隆抗体、嵌合抗体、dAb(结构域抗体)、单链抗体、Fab、Fab-和F(ab’) 2片段、Fv和 Fab表达库。
术语“抗体”包括可以在生物化学上区分的各种广泛种类的多肽。本领域技术人员将会理解,重链的类别包括gamma、mu、alpha、delta或epsilon(γ、μ、α、δ、ε),其中还有一些亚类(例如γ1-γ4)。该链的性质决定了抗体的“种类”分别为IgG、IgM、IgA、IgG或IgE。免疫球蛋白亚类(同种型),例如IgG1、IgG2、IgG3、IgG4、IgG5等已被充分表征并且赋予的功能特异性也已知。所有的免疫球蛋白种类都在本发明公开的保护范围内。在一个或多个实施方式中,免疫球蛋白分子为IgG种类。两条重链和两条轻链通过二硫键以“Y”构型连接,其中轻链从“Y”口开始并延续通过可变区包围重链。
本发明公开的抗体、抗原结合单元或衍生物包括但不限于多克隆、单克隆、多特异性、全人源、人源化、灵长类化、嵌合抗体、单链抗体、表位结合片段(例如类Fab、类Fab'和类F(ab') 2)、类单链Fvs(scFv)。
轻链可以分为kappa(κ)或lambda(λ)。每个重链可以与κ或λ轻链结合。一般来说,当由杂交瘤、B细胞或基因工程宿主细胞生产免疫球蛋白时,其轻链和重链通过共价键结合,两条重链的“尾巴”部分通过共价二硫键或非共价键结合。在重链中,氨基酸序列从Y构型的叉状末端的N末端延伸至每条链底部的C末端。免疫球蛋白κ轻链可变区为V κ;免疫球蛋白λ轻链可变区为V λ
术语“恒定的”和“可变的”根据功能被使用。轻链可变区(VL)和重链可变区(VH)决定了抗原识别和特异性。轻链恒定区(CL)和重链恒定区(CH)赋予重要的生物学性质,如分泌、经胎盘移动、Fc受体结合、补体结合等。按照惯例,恒定区的编号随着它们变得更远离抗体的抗原结合位点或氨基末端而增加。N端部分是可变区,C端部分是恒定区;CH3和CL结构域实际上分别包含重链和轻链的羧基端。
在天然存在的抗体中,假设抗体在含水环境中呈现其三维构型时,存在于每个抗原结合域中的六个“互补决定区”或“CDR”是形成抗原结合结构域的短的、非连续的与抗原特异性结合的氨基酸序列。抗原结合结构域中被称为“框架”区域的剩余其它氨基酸显示出较小的分子间可变性。框架区大部分采用β-折叠构象,CDR形成与之连接的环状结构,或在某些情况下形成β折叠结构的一部分。因此,框架区通过形成支架从而通过链间非共价相互作用使CDR定位在正确的方位上。具有特定位置的CDR的抗原结合域形成了与抗原上的表位互补的表面,该互补表面促进抗体和其抗原表位的非共价结合。对于给定的重链或轻链可变区,本领域普通技术人员都可以通过已知方法鉴定出包含CDR和框架区的氨基酸(参见Kabat,E.,et al.,U.S.Department of Health and Human Services,Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,(1983)和Chothia and Lesk,J.Mol.Biol.,196:901-917(1987))。如本文所用,术语“单克隆抗体”(mAb)是指一群这样的抗体分子:其只含有由独特的轻链基因产物和独特的重链基因产物组成的抗体分子中的一种分子种类。具体地,单克隆抗体的互补决定区(CDR)在该群体的所有分子中是相同的。MAb含有能够与抗原的特定表位发生免疫反应的抗原结合位点。
术语“单链抗体”(scFv)是指由抗体重链可变区(VH)和轻链可变区(VL)通过15~20个氨基酸的接头(linker)连接而成的抗体。接头可以富含甘氨酸以增加柔韧性,以及富含丝氨酸或苏氨酸以增加溶解性,并且可以连接VH的N端和VL的C端,反 之亦然。尽管该蛋白质被除去了恒定区和引入了接头,但其保留了原始免疫球蛋白的特异性。ScFv分子通常是本领域中已知的,例如在美国专利5,892,019中有相关描述。
术语“抗原结合位点”或“结合部分”指免疫球蛋白分子中参与抗原结合的部分。该抗原结合位点由重(H)链和轻(L)链的N端可变(V)区的氨基酸残基形成。重链可变区(VH)和轻链可变区(VL)中三个高度分化的分支(被称作“高变区”)位于较保守的分支(被称作“框架区”或“FR”)之间。因此,术语“FR”表示免疫球蛋白中在天然情况下存在于高变区之间或邻近高变区的氨基酸序列。在抗体分子中,轻链的三个高变区和重链的三个高变区在三维空间中彼此相对排列,以形成抗原结合表面。抗原结合表面与所结合抗原的三维表面互补,且每条重链和轻链的三个高变区均被称作“互补决定区”或“CDR”。按照位置顺序,重链可变区包含VH FR1、VH CDR1、VH FR2、VH CDR2、VH FR3、VH CDR3以及VH FR4。按照位置顺序,轻链可变区包含VL FR1、VL CDR1、VL FR2、VL CDR2、VL FR3、VL CDR3以及VL FR4。每个结构域氨基酸的比对可与Kabat Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest(National Institutes of Health(1987和1991))或Chothia和Lesk的文章(J.Mol.Biol.196:901-917(1987);Chothia等,Nature 342:878-883(1989))的定义一致。
人源化抗体的框架区及CDR区不必准确对应于亲本序列,例如供体抗体CDR或共有框架可通过至少一个氨基酸残基的取代、插入和/或缺失而突变诱发,使得该位点的CDR或框架残基不对应于供体抗体或共有框架。通常,至少80%、至少85%、更至少90%或至少95%的人源化抗体残基将对应于亲本FR及CDR序列的那些残基。如本文使用的,术语“共有框架”是指共有免疫球蛋白序列中的框架区。如本文使用的,术语“共有免疫球蛋白序列”是指由相关免疫球蛋白序列家族中最频繁出现的氨基酸(或核苷酸)形成的序列(参见例如,Winnaker,From Genes to Clones[从基因到克隆](Verlagsgesellschaft,Weinheim,德国1987))。在免疫球蛋白家族中,共有序列中的各位置由该家族中最频繁出现于该位置的氨基酸占据。若两个氨基酸同等频繁地出现,则共有序列中可包括任一个。
在本领域中使用和/或接受的术语有两个或多个定义的情况下,除非明确地对立指出,否则本文使用的术语的定义包括所有这些含义。一个具体的例子是使用“互补决定区”(“CDR”)一词来描述在重链和轻链多肽的可变区内发现的非连续的抗原结合位点。这一特定区域在Kabat et al.,U.S.Dept.of Health and Human Services,Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest(1983)和Chothia等在J.Mol.Biol.196:901-917(1987)有相关描述,其通过引用全部并入本文。
Kabat等人还定义了适用于任何抗体的可变区序列的编号系统。本领域普通技术人员可以不依赖于序列本身以外的其他实验数据将该“Kabat编号”系统应用到任何可变区序列。“Kabat编号”是指由Kabat et al.,U.S.Dept.of Health and Human Services在“Sequence of Proteins of Immunological Interest”(1983)提出的编号系统。抗体还可以用EU或Chothia编号系统。
本发明公开的抗体可以来源于任何动物,包括但不限于鱼类、鸟类和哺乳动物。较佳地,抗体是人源、鼠源、驴源、兔源、山羊源、骆驼源、美洲驼源、马源或鸡源抗体。在另一实施方案中,可变区可以是软骨鱼纲(condricthoid)来源(例如来自鲨鱼)。
“重链恒定区”包括CH1结构域、铰链(例如上、中和/或下铰链区)结构域、CH2结构域、CH3结构域,或变体或片段中的至少一种。抗体的重链恒定区可以来源于不同的免疫球蛋白分子。例如,多肽的重链恒定区可以包括源自IgG1分子的CH1结构域和源自IgG3分子的铰链区。在另一实施方案中,重链恒定区可以包括部分源自IgG1分子和部分源自IgG3分子的铰链区。在另一实施方案中,部分重链可以包括部分源自IgG1分子和部分源自IgG4分子的嵌合铰链区。
“轻链恒定区”包括来自抗体轻链的一部分氨基酸序列。较佳地,轻链恒定区包含恒定κ结构域或恒定λ结构域中的至少一个。“轻链-重链对”是指可通过轻链的CL结构域和重链的CH1结构域之间的二硫键形成二聚体的轻链和重链的集合。
“VH结构域”包括免疫球蛋白重链的氨基末端可变结构域。“CH1结构域”包括免疫球蛋白重链的第一个恒定区。CH2结构域不与其它结构域紧密配对,而是在完整的天然IgG分子的两个CH2结构域之间插入两个N-连接的分支碳水化合物链。CH3结构域从CH2结构域开始延伸到IgG分子的C-末端,大约包含108个残基。“铰链区”包括连接CH1结构域和CH2结构域的部分重链区域。所述铰链区包含约25个残基并且是有韧性的,从而使得两个N端抗原结合区能够独立移动。铰链区可以被细分为三个不同的结构域:上、中和下铰链结构域(Rouxetal.,J.Immunol 161:4083(1998))。
“二硫键”指两个硫原子之间形成的共价键。半胱氨酸的硫醇基团可以与第二个硫醇基团形成二硫键或桥接。在大多数天然存在的IgG分子中,CH1和CL区通过二硫键连接。
“嵌合抗体”指其可变区从第一个物种中获得或衍生,而其恒定区(可以是完整的、部分的或修饰过的)来源于第二个物种的任何抗体。某些实施方案中,可变区来自非人源(例如小鼠或灵长类动物),而恒定区来自人源。
本文所用术语“表位”包括任意能够特异性结合免疫球蛋白或其片段或T细胞受体的蛋白决定区。表位决定区通常由分子的化学活性表面基团(如氨基酸或糖侧链)组成且通常有特定的三维结构性质以及特定的电荷性质。
如本文所用,术语“特异性结合”是指在免疫球蛋白分子与免疫球蛋白特异的抗原之间发生的非共价相互作用类型。免疫学结合相互作用的强度或亲和力可以以相互作用的平衡解离常数(KD)表示,其中较小的KD代表较大的亲和力。所选多肽的免疫结合特性可使用本领域熟知方法进行定量。一种此类方法需要测量抗原结合位点/抗原复合物形成和解离的速率,其中那些速率取决于复合物配偶体的浓度、相互作用的亲和力和在两个方向同等影响该速率的几何参数。因此,“结合速率常数”(k on)和“解离速率常数”(k off)两者可通过计算浓度和实际的缔合和解离速率测定(参见Nature361:186-87(1993))。k off/k on比率能够消除所有与亲和力无关的参数,并且等于平衡解离常数KD(通常参见Davies等人(1990)Annual Rev Biochem 59:439-473)。特异性结合可由放射性配体结合测定、表面等离子体共振(SPR)、流式细胞术结合测定、或本领域技术人员已知的类似测定所测。
本发明中关于细胞、核酸、多肽等所使用的术语“分离的”,例如“分离的”DNA、RNA、多肽是指分别于细胞天然环境中的其它组分如DNA或RNA中的一种或多种所分离的分子。本发明使用的术语“分离的”还指当通过重组DNA技术产生时基本上不含细胞材料、病毒材料或细胞培养基的核酸或肽,或化学合成时的化学前体或其他化学 品。此外,“分离的核酸”意在包括不以天然状态存在的核酸片段,并且不会以天然状态存在。术语“分离的”在本发明中也用于指从其他细胞蛋白质或组织分离的细胞或多肽。分离的多肽意在包括纯化的和重组的多肽。分离的多肽等通常通过至少一个纯化步骤制备。在一个或多个实施方式中,分离的核酸、多肽等的纯度至少为约50%、约60%、约70%、约80%、约90%、约95%、约99%,或这些数值中的任何两个值之间的范围(包括端值)或其中任何值。
“分离的”抗体是从其天然环境的组分中分离和/或回收的抗体。其天然环境的一些组分是将妨碍抗体的诊断或治疗用途的物质,并且可包括酶、激素、以及其它蛋白质或非蛋白质溶质。在一些实施方案中,将所述抗体纯化到以下程度:(1)所述抗体按重量百分比计大于95%,如大于99%,如由Lowry方法所测;(2)通过使用转杯式测序仪可以获得N-末端或内部氨基酸序列的至少15个残基;或者(3)通过还原或非还原条件下的SDS-PAGE,使用考马斯蓝或银染色测出具有同质性。分离的抗体包括重组细胞内的原位抗体。通常,分离的抗体将通过至少一个或多个纯化步骤制备。在一些实施方案中,分离的抗体的纯度至少为约50%、约60%、约70%、约80%、约90%、约95%、约99%,或这些数值中的任何两个值之间的范围(包括端值)或其中任何值。
术语“编码”应用于多聚核苷酸时,是指被称为“编码”多肽的多聚核苷酸,在其天然状态或当通过本领域技术人员公知的方法操作时,经转录和/或翻译可以产生该多肽和/或其片段。
术语“重组”涉及多肽或多聚核苷酸,意指天然不存在的多肽或多聚核苷酸的形式,不受限制的实施例可以通过组合产生通常并不存在的多聚核苷酸或多肽。
术语“序列同一性”指的是:在比较窗口中两个多核苷酸或氨基酸序列是相同的(即基于核苷酸对核苷酸或残基对残基是相同的)。术语“序列同一性百分比”通过如下方式计算:在比较窗口中比较两个最佳比对的序列,确定在两个序列中出现相同氨基酸残基的位置的数目以得到匹配的位置的数目,将匹配的位置的数目除以比较窗口中位置的总数目(即窗口尺寸),然后将结果乘以100以得到序列同一性百分比。“至少90%序列同一性”为约90%序列同一性、约91%序列同一性、约92%序列同一性、约93%序列同一性、约95%序列同一性、约96%序列同一性、约97%序列同一性、约98%序列同一性、约99%序列同一性,或这些数值中的任何两个值之间的范围(包括端值)或其中任何值。
“氨基酸”是指既含氨基又含羧基的有机化合物,比如α-氨基酸,其可直接或以前体的形式由核酸编码。单个氨基酸由三个核苷酸(所谓的密码子或碱基三联体)组成的核酸编码。每一个氨基酸由至少一个密码子编码。相同氨基酸由不同密码子编码称为“遗传密码的简并性”。氨基酸包括天然氨基酸和非天然氨基酸。
如本文所用,二十种常规氨基酸及其缩写遵循常规用法。参见Immunology-A Synthesis(第2版,E.S.Golub和D.R.Gren编辑,Sinauer Associates,Sunderland 7Mass.(1991))。二十种常规氨基酸的立体异构体(例如,D-氨基酸)、非天然氨基酸(诸如α-、α-二取代氨基酸)、N-烷基氨基酸、乳酸及其它非常规氨基酸也可为适用于本公开多肽的组分。非常规氨基酸的示例包括:4-羟脯氨酸、γ-羧基谷氨酸盐、ε-N,N,N-三甲基赖氨酸、ε-N-乙酰赖氨酸、O-磷酸丝氨酸、N-乙酰丝氨酸、N-甲酰甲硫 氨酸、3-甲基组氨酸、5-羟赖氨酰、σ-N-甲基精氨酸及其它类似的氨基酸和亚氨基酸(例如4-羟脯氨酸)。在本文所用的多肽表示方法中,左手方向为氨基末端方向,并且右手方向为羧基末端方向,与标准用法和惯例一致。常规(或天然)氨基酸包括丙氨酸(三字母代码:Ala,一字母代码:A)、精氨酸(Arg,R)、天冬酰胺(Asn,N)、天冬氨酸(Asp,D)、半胱氨酸(Cys,C)、谷氨酰胺(Gln,Q)、谷氨酸(Glu,E)、甘氨酸(Gly,G)、组氨酸(His,H)、异亮氨酸(Ile,I)、亮氨酸(Leu,L)、赖氨酸(Lys,K)、甲硫氨酸(Met,M)、苯丙氨酸(Phe,F)、脯氨酸(Pro,P)、丝氨酸(Ser,S)、苏氨酸(Thr,T)、色氨酸(Trp,W)、酪氨酸(Tyr,Y)和缬氨酸(Val,V)。
术语“多肽”旨在涵盖单数的“多肽”以及复数的“多肽”,并且是指由通过酰胺键(也称为肽键)线性连接的氨基酸单体形成的分子。术语“多肽”是指两个或更多个氨基酸的任何单条链或多条链,并且不涉及产物的特定长度。因此,“多肽”的定义中包括肽、二肽、三肽、寡肽、“蛋白质”、“氨基酸链”或用于指两个或多个氨基酸链的任何其他术语,并且术语“多肽”可以用来代替上述任何一个术语,或者与上述任何一个术语交替使用。术语“多肽”也意在指多肽表达后修饰的产物,包括但不限于糖基化、乙酰化、磷酸化、酰胺化、通过已知的保护/封闭基团衍生化、蛋白水解切割或非天然发生的氨基酸修饰。多肽可以源自天然生物来源或通过重组技术产生,但其不必从指定的核酸序列翻译所得,它可能以包括化学合成的任何方式产生。
当应用于多肽时,术语“基本上相同”是指两个肽序列在诸如通过GAP或BESTFIT程序使用默认空位权重进行最佳比对时,共享至少80%序列同一性,优选至少90%序列同一性,更优选至少95%序列同一性,并最优选至少99%序列同一性。
本领域技术人员理解当氨基酸或多肽作为一个分子(如抗体或ADC)的组成部分时,氨基酸或多肽指氨基酸残基或多肽残基(不论是否写明),即其在与该分子的其他部分结合时,其部分基团(例如其氨基一个氢原子和/或羧基的羟基)因其与分子的其他部分形成共价键(如酰胺键)而失去后的剩余部分。
多聚核苷酸是由四个碱基的特定序列组成:腺嘌呤(A)、胞嘧啶(C)、鸟嘌呤(G)、胸腺嘧啶(T),或当多聚核苷酸是RNA时胸腺嘧啶换为尿嘧啶(U)。“多聚核苷酸序列”可以以多聚核苷酸分子的字母表示。该字母表示可以被输入到具有中央处理单元的计算机中的数据库中,并用于生物信息学应用,例如用于功能基因组学和同源性搜索。
术语“多核苷酸”、“多聚核苷酸”和“寡核苷酸”可互换使用,是指任何长度的核苷酸的聚合形式,无论是脱氧核糖核苷酸还是核糖核苷酸或其类似物。多聚核苷酸可以具有任何三维结构并且可以执行已知或未知的任何功能。以下是不受限制的多聚核苷酸的实施例:基因或基因片段(例如探针、引物、EST或SAGE标签)、外显子、内含子、信使RNA(mRNA)、转运RNA、核糖体RNA、核糖酶、cDNA、dsRNA、siRNA、miRNA、重组多聚核苷酸、分支的多聚核苷酸、质粒、载体、任何序列的分离的DNA、任何序列的分离的RNA、核酸探针和引物。多聚核苷酸可以包含修饰的核苷酸,例如甲基化的核苷酸和核苷酸类似物。如果存在该修饰,则对核苷酸的结构修饰可以在组装多聚核苷酸之前或之后进行。核苷酸的序列可以被非核苷酸组分中断。聚合后可以进一步修饰多聚核苷酸,例如通过与标记组分缀合。这个术语也指双链和 单链分子。除另有说明或要求外,本公开的任何多聚核苷酸的实施例包括双链形式和已知或预测构成双链形式的两种可互补单链形式中的每一种。
核酸或多聚核苷酸序列(或多肽或抗体序列)与另一序列有具有一定百分比(例如90%、95%、98%或者99%)的“同一性或序列同一性”是指当序列比对时,所比较的两个序列中该百分比的碱基(或氨基酸)相同。可以使用目测或本领域已知的软件程序来确定该比对和同一性百分比或序列同一性,比如Ausubel et al.eds.(2007)在Current Protocols in Molecular Biology中所述的软件程序。优选使用默认参数进行比对。其中一种比对程序是使用默认参数的BLAST,例如BLASTN和BLASTP,两者使用下列默认参数:Geneticcode=standard;filter=none;strand=both;cutoff=60;expect=10;Matrix=BLOSUM62;Descriptions=50sequences;sortby=HIGHSCORE;Databases=non-redundant;GenBank+EMBL+DDBJ+PDB+GenBankCDStranslations+SwissProtein+SPupdate+PIR。生物学上等同的多聚核苷酸是具有上述指定百分比的同一性并编码具有相同或相似生物学活性的多肽的多聚核苷酸。
除非另外指明,否则单链多核苷酸序列的左手末端是5'端,双链多核苷酸序列的左手方向被称为5'方向。新生的RNA转录物的5’至3’的添加方向被称为转录方向;DNA链上与RNA序列相同,且在RNA转录物5’端5’的序列区被称为“上游序列”;DNA链上与RNA序列相同,且在RNA转录物3’端3’的序列区被称为“下游序列”。
在一些实施方案中,不相同的残基位置区别在于保守氨基酸取代。
抗体或免疫球蛋白分子的氨基酸序列的微小变化都涵盖在本公开之内,条件是氨基酸序列的同一性保持至少90%,如至少92%、95%、98%或99%。在一些实施方案中,变化为保守氨基酸取代。保守氨基酸取代是在其侧链中相关的氨基酸家族内发生的取代。基因编码的氨基酸大致分以下类:(1)酸性氨基酸为天冬氨酸盐、谷氨酸盐;(2)碱性氨基酸为赖氨酸、精氨酸、组氨酸;(3)非极性氨基酸为丙氨酸、缬氨酸、亮氨酸、异亮氨酸、脯氨酸、苯丙氨酸、甲硫氨酸、色氨酸);以及(4)无电荷的极性氨基酸为甘氨酸、天冬酰胺、谷氨酰胺、半胱氨酸、丝氨酸、苏氨酸、酪氨酸。其它家族的氨基酸包括(i)脂肪族-羟基家族的丝氨酸和苏氨酸;(ii)含酰胺家族的天冬酰胺和谷氨酰胺;(iii)脂肪族家族的丙氨酸、缬氨酸、亮氨酸和异亮氨酸;以及(iv)芳族家族的苯丙氨酸、色氨酸和酪氨酸。在一些实施方案中,保守氨基酸取代组为:缬氨酸-亮氨酸-异亮氨酸、苯丙氨酸-酪氨酸、赖氨酸-精氨酸、丙氨酸-缬氨酸、谷氨酸-天冬氨酸、以及天冬酰胺-谷氨酰胺。例如,可以合理地预测用异亮氨酸或缬氨酸单独的置换亮氨酸,用谷氨酸盐置换天冬氨酸盐,用丝氨酸置换苏氨酸,或用一个结构相关的氨基酸类似的置换一个氨基酸,且对所得分子的结合或特性不会有重要影响,特别是该置换不涉及结合位点内的氨基酸。氨基酸改变是否产生功能性肽可以容易地通过测定多肽衍生物的比活性来确定。所述测定在本文进行了详细描述。抗体或免疫球蛋白分子的片段或类似物可由本领域普通技术人员容易地制备。
在一些实施方案中,氨基酸取代具有如下效果:(1)降低对蛋白水解作用的敏感性,(2)降低对氧化作用的敏感性,(3)改变用于形成蛋白复合物的结合亲和力,(4)改变结合亲和力,和(5)赋予或改进此类类似物的其它物理化学或功能特性。类似物可包括序列不同于天然存在的肽序列的各种突变蛋白。例如,可在天然存在的序列(优选在形成分子间接触的结构域之外的多肽部分中)中进行单个或多个氨基酸 取代(优选保守氨基酸取代)。保守氨基酸取代不应当显著改变亲本序列的结构特性(例如,置换的氨基酸不应当趋于破坏亲本序列中存在的螺旋结构,或破坏表征亲本序列的其它类型二级结构)。人工识别的多肽的二级和三级结构的示例描述于Proteins,Structures and Molecular Principles(Creighton编辑,W.H.Freeman and Company,New York(1984));Introduction to Protein Structure(C.Branden和J.Tooze编辑,Garland Publishing,New York,N.Y.(1991));和Thornton等人Nature 354:105(1991)。

术语“过表达”或“过表达的”可互换地指一种基因,与正常细胞相比,其通常在某些细胞,如癌细胞中以可检测到的更高水平的转录或翻译。过表达可以是蛋白质或RNA的过表达(由于增加的转录,转录后加工,翻译,翻译后加工,改变的稳定性和改变的蛋白质降解),以及蛋白质运输模式改变导致的局部过表达(核定位增加)和增强的功能活性,例如,如增加底物的酶水解。与正常细胞或对照细胞相比,过表达可以是5%、10%、20%、30%、50%、60%、70%、80%、90%或更多。在某些实施例中,本发明的抗FRα抗体及抗体药物偶联物用于治疗可能过表达叶酸受体α的实体瘤。

抗体制备方法
在一个或多个实施方式中,本发明公开的抗体、抗原结合单元、或衍生物使用本领域公认的技术修饰以降低其免疫原性。例如,抗体可以被人源化、灵长类化、去免疫化或者可以制备嵌合抗体。这些类型的抗体来源于非人抗体,通常是鼠类或灵长类抗体,其保留或基本保留亲本抗体的抗原结合特性但在人体中免疫原性较低。其可以通过多种方法来实现,包括(a)将整个非人源的可变区移植到人源的恒定区以产生嵌合抗体;生产嵌合抗体的方法是本领域已知的,参见美国专利5,807,715、4,816,567和4,816,397,其全部内容通过引用并入本文;(b)将一个或多个非人类互补决定区(CDR)的至少一部分移植到人源的框架和恒定区中,保留或不保留关键的框架残基;或(c)移植整个非人源的可变区,但通过用类人源的部分置换表面残基从而“隐藏”它们。通常人框架区中的框架残基将被来自CDR供体抗体的相应残基取代,比如能够改善抗原结合的残基。这些框架替换可以通过本领域公知的方法鉴定,例如通过模拟CDR和框架残基的相互作用以鉴定对抗原结合起重要作用的框架残基和通过序列对比以鉴定特定位置上异常的框架残基(参考美国专利5,585,089;其全部内容通过引用并入本文)。可以使用本领域公知的多种技术使抗体人源化,例如CDR移植(EP 239,400;WO 91/09967;美国专利5,225,539,5,530,101和5,585,089),修复或者表面重排(EP592,106;EP519,596),以及链的重排(美国专利5,565,332),其全部内容通过引用并入本文。
免疫原性降低的抗体的产生也使用适当的库经由人源化技术、嵌合化技术和展示技术来实现。应当理解,鼠抗体或来自于其它物种的抗体可使用本领域熟知的技术人源化或灵长类源化。参见例如Winter和Harris Immunol Today 14:43 46(1993)以及Wright等人Crit.Reviews in Immunol.12125-168(1992)。抗体可通过重组DNA技术进行工程化改造,以用相应的人序列取代CH1、CH2、CH3、铰链结构域和/或骨架结构域(参见WO 92102190和美国专利No.5,530,101;5,585,089;5,693,761;5,693,792;5,714,350;和5,777,085)。将Ig cDNA用于构建嵌合免疫球蛋白基因也为本领域已知 的(Liu等人P.N.A.S.84:3439(1987)和J.Immunol.139:3521(1987))。mRNA从产生抗体的杂交瘤或其它细胞中分离出并用于产生cDNA。cDNA可使用特异性引物通过聚合酶链反应来扩增(美国专利4,683,195和4,683,202)。另选地,构建并筛选库以分离所关注的序列。然后将编码抗体可变区的DNA序列与人恒定区序列融合。人恒定区基因的序列可见于Kabat等人发表的Sequences of Proteins of immunological Interest(N.I.H.publication no.91-3242(1991))。人C区基因可容易地从已知克隆中获得。同种型的选择将根据所期望的效应子功能,例如补体结合或抗体依赖性细胞毒性的活性来指导。优选的同种型为IgG1和IgG2。可使用任一种人轻链恒定区,即k或λ,然后通过常规方法表达嵌合人源化抗体。
去免疫化也可用于降低抗体的免疫原性。在本发明中,术语“去免疫化”包括改变抗体以修饰T细胞表位(参见例如WO/9852976 A1和WO/0034317 A2)。例如,分析来自起始抗体的重链可变区序列和轻链可变区序列,并产生来自每个可变区的人T细胞表位“图谱”,显示表位相对于互补决定区(CDRs)和序列内其它关键残基的位置。分析来自T细胞表位图的单个T细胞表位,以鉴定具有较低改变抗体活性风险的可选择的氨基酸取代。设计包含氨基酸取代组合的一系列可选的重链可变区序列和轻链可变区序列,随后将这些序列掺入到一系列结合多肽中。然后将包含修饰过的可变区和人类恒定区的完整重链和轻链的基因克隆到表达载体中,随后将质粒转入细胞系以产生完整的抗体。然后利用合适的生物化学和生物学实验中比较抗体,鉴定出最佳的抗体。
识别选择性表位的全人源抗体可以使用被称为“引导选择”的技术来生产。在该方法中,使用选择的非人单克隆抗体来引导识别相同表位的全人源抗体的筛选(参见美国专利5,565,332,其全部内容通过引用并入本文)。
单链Fv(scFv)可参见生产单链单元的技术(美国专利4,694,778)。通过氨基酸桥接Fv区的重链和轻链片段形成单链单元,产生单链融合肽。也可以使用在大肠杆菌中组装功能性Fv片段的技术(Skerra et al.,Science 242:1038-1041(1988))。
可用于生产scFv和抗体的技术的实例包括如美国专利4,946,778和5,258,498中所述。
在一个或多个实施方式中,抗原结合片段如Fab、F(ab’) 2和Fv可通过裂解完整的蛋白质来制备,例如通过蛋白酶或者化学裂解。包括但不限于:(i)用胃蛋白酶消化抗体分子得到F(ab’) 2片段;(ii)通过还原F(ab’) 2片段的二硫键得到Fab片段;(iii)用木瓜蛋白酶和还原剂处理抗体分子生成Fab片段,以及(iv)Fv片段。
使用常规重组DNA技术,可将本发明的抗体的一个或多个CDR插入框架区,例如插入到人类框架区以构建人源化抗体。框架区可以是天然存在的或共有的框架区,优选人类框架区(参见Chothia et al.,J.Mol.Biol.278:457-479(1998),其列出一系列人类框架区)。一些多核苷酸可以编码框架区和CDR组合产生的与目标抗原的至少一个表位特异性结合的抗体。在框架区内可以进行一个或多个氨基酸取代,可以选择能够改善抗体与其抗原结合的氨基酸取代。另外,可用此法进行参与链间二硫键形成的一个或多个可变区中半胱氨酸残基的取代或缺失,从而产生缺少一个或多个链间二硫键的抗体分子。本领域技术范围内的对多核苷酸进行的其他改变也涵盖于本发明中。
抗体可以通过使用常规重组DNA技术制备。使用本领域技术人员公知的技术可以选择、构建和培养生产抗体的载体及细胞系等。这些技术在各种实验室手册和主要出版物中均有描述,例如Recombinant DNA Technology for Production of Protein Therapeutics in Cultured Mammalian Cells,D.L.Hacker,F.M.Wurm,in Reference Module in Life Sciences,2017,其全部内容包括补充内容通过引用并入全文。
在一个或多个实施方式中,对本发明的抗FRα抗体或其抗原结合单元进行糖基化修饰。例如,可以制备去糖基化的抗体(即,该抗体缺乏糖基化)。可更改糖基化以例如增加抗体对抗原的亲和力。此类修饰可由例如更改抗体序列内的一或多个糖基化位点来完成。举例而言,可进行一个或多个氨基酸取代,从而消除一个或多个可变区糖基化位点,以借此消除该位点的糖基化。此类去糖基化可增加抗体对抗原的亲和力。此类方法进一步详细描述于PCT公开案WO 2003016466 A2及美国专利5,714,350及6,350,861中,其各自以全文引用方式并入本文中。
抗体(例如抗FRα抗体)基因可以通过标准方法(例如,连接抗体基因片段和载体上的互补限制性位点,或者如果不存在限制性位点,则平端连接)插入表达载体内。表达载体可以为质粒、逆转录病毒、YAC、EBV衍生的附加体等等。为了表达抗体(例如抗FRα抗体),可将编码全长轻链和重链的DNA插入表达载体内,使得基因与转录和翻译控制序列可操作地连接。“可操作地连接”意指抗体基因连接到载体内,使得载体内的转录和翻译控制序列发挥其调节抗体基因转录和翻译的预期功能。
重链和轻链的一致性序列J区可用于设计用作引物的寡核苷酸,以便在J区内引入有用的限制性位点,用于随后将V区片段连接于人C区片段。C区cDNA可通过定点诱变修饰,以在人序列的类似位置放置一个限制性位点。在一个或多个实施方式中,在插入抗体相关的轻链或重链基因序列之前,表达载体已经携带抗体恒定区序列。例如,将抗FRα抗体相关的VH和VL序列转换为全长抗体基因的一种方法是将它们分别插入已经编码重链恒定区和轻链恒定区的表达载体内,使得VH区段可操作地连接至载体内的CH区段,并且VL区段可操作地连接至载体内的CL区段。
重组表达载体可以编码促进宿主细胞分泌抗体重链和轻链的信号肽。或者,可以将抗体重链和轻链基因克隆到编码促进宿主细胞分泌抗体重链和轻链的信号肽的载体中,使得信号肽与抗体重链和轻链基因的氨基末端框内连接。信号肽可以是免疫球蛋白信号肽或异源信号肽(即,来自非免疫球蛋白蛋白的信号肽),例如,MDWTWRILFLVAAATGAHS(SEQ ID NO:21)、MEAPAQLLFLLLLWLPDTTG(SEQ ID NO:22)。
除抗体重链和轻链基因之外,重组表达载体还可以携带控制抗体链基因在宿主细胞中表达的调节序列。调节序列包括控制抗体链基因的转录或翻译的启动子、增强子和其它表达控制元件(例如,多腺苷酸化信号)。此类调节序列在例如Goeddel,Gene Expression Technology:Methods in Enzymology 185,Academic Press,San Diego,CA,1990中有描述。本领域技术人员了解表达载体的设计,包括调节序列的选择可以取决于待转化的宿主细胞的选择、所需蛋白质的表达水平等因素。用于哺乳动物宿主细胞表达的合适调节序列包括指导哺乳动物细胞中的高水平蛋白质表达的病毒元件,如衍生自巨细胞病毒(CMV)(如CMV启动子/增强子)、猿猴病毒40(SV40)(如SV40启动子/增强子)、腺病毒(如腺病毒主要晚期启动子(AdMLP))和多瘤的启 动子和/或增强子。关于病毒调节元件及其序列的进一步描述,参见例如美国专利5,168,062,4,510,245和4,968,615。
除抗体链基因和调节序列之外,重组表达载体可以携带另外的序列,例如调节载体在宿主细胞中复制的序列(例如,复制起点)和可选择标记物基因。可选择标记物基因促进载体已引入其内的宿主细胞的选择(参见例如,美国专利4,399,216、4,634,665和5,179,017)。例如,通常可选择赋予已引入载体的宿主细胞针对药物(例如G418、潮霉素或氨甲蝶呤)的抗性的标记物基因。合适的可选择标记物基因包括二氢叶酸还原酶(DHFR)基因(用于在具有氨甲蝶呤选择/扩增的DHFR-宿主细胞中使用)、neo基因(用于G418选择)和GS基因。对于重链和轻链的表达,通过标准技术将编码重链和轻链的表达载体转染到宿主细胞内。
本发明的抗体(例如抗FRα抗体)可以通过在宿主细胞中重组表达抗体的重链和轻链基因来制备。例如,用一种或多种携带编码抗体的重链和轻链DNA片段的重组表达载体转染宿主细胞,使得重链和轻链在宿主细胞中表达,表达的抗体可以分泌到培养宿主细胞的培养基内,从所述培养基中可以回收抗体。“转染”指通常用于将外源DNA引入真核宿主细胞内的广泛多样的技术,例如电穿孔、脂转染、磷酸钙沉淀、DEAE-葡聚糖转染等等。用于获得抗体重链和轻链基因,将这些基因掺入表达载体内并将载体引入宿主细胞内的标准重组DNA方法在本领域众所周知,例如Molecular Cloning;A Laboratory Manual,第二版(Sambrook,Fritsch和Maniatis(编辑),Cold Spring Harbor,N.Y.,1989)、Current Protocols inMolecular Biology(Ausubel,F.M.等人,编辑,Greene Publishing Associates,1989)以及美国专利号4,816,397中描述的那些。表达抗体重链和轻链的DNA可以置入同一载体中或置入不同载体中;若置入不同载体中,表达抗体重链的载体和表达抗体轻链的载体可以以适当比例转染宿主细胞(如Tihomir S.Dodev et al.,A tool kit for rapid cloning and expression of recombinant antibodies,Scientific Reports volume 4,Article number:5885(2014);Stefan Schlatter et al.,On the Optimal Ratio of Heavy to Light Chain Genes for Efficient Recombinant Antibody Production by CHO Cells,Biotechnol Progress,21:122-133(2005);Hadi Bayat et al.,Evaluation of different vector design strategies for the expression of recombinant monoclonal antibody in CHO cells,Preparative Biochemistry&Biotechnology,48(8):822-829(2018))。在一个或多个实施方式中,抗体表达载体包括至少一个启动子元件,抗体编码序列,转录终止信号和polyA尾巴。其他元件可以包括增强子,Kozak序列(GCCACC,如SEQ ID NO:33所示)及插入序列两侧RNA剪接的供体和受体位点。可以通过SV40的前期和后期启动子,来自逆转录病毒的长末端重复序列如RSV、HTLV1、HIVI及巨细胞病毒的早期启动子来获得高效的转录,也可应用其它一些细胞的启动子如肌动蛋白启动子。合适的表达载体可包括pIRES1neo,pRetro-Off,pRetro-On,pLXSN,pLNCX,pcDNA3.1(+/-),pcDNA/Zeo(+/-),pcDNA3.1/Hygro(+/-),pSVL,pMSG,pRSVcat,pSV2dhfr,pBC12MI,pCS2或pCHO1.0等。
本发明的抗体(例如抗FRα抗体)能够在真核宿主细胞中表达。在某些实施方案中,抗体的表达在真核细胞例如哺乳动物宿主细胞中进行。用于表达本发明抗体的示例性宿主细胞包括中国仓鼠卵巢细胞(CHO细胞)(例如CHO-K1细胞)或从CHO细胞修饰的CHO-S、CHO-dhfr-、CHO/DG44或ExpiCHO、NSO骨髓瘤细胞、COS细 胞、Cos1细胞、Cos7细胞、SP2细胞、CV1细胞、鼠L细胞、人胚肾细胞HEK293或从HEK293细胞修饰的HEK293T、HEK293F或HEK293E细胞。将编码抗体链基因的重组表达载体引入宿主细胞内后,将宿主细胞在培养基内培养允许抗体在宿主细胞中表达或抗体分泌到培养基的一段时间来产生抗体。可以使用标准蛋白质纯化方法从培养基中回收抗体。
通过使用本领域技术人员公知的技术可以选择、构建和培养生产抗体的细胞系。这些技术在各种实验室手册和主要出版物中均有描述,例如Recombinant DNA Technology for Production of Protein Therapeutics in Cultured Mammalian Cells,D.L.Hacker,F.M.Wurm,in Reference Module in Life Sciences,2017,其全部内容包括补充内容通过引用并入全文。
对于本发明的抗体(例如抗FRα抗体)的重组表达,可以用两种重组表达载体共转染宿主细胞,第一重组表达载体编码抗体重链,第二重组表达载体编码抗体轻链。两个重组表达载体可以含有相同的可选择标记物,或者它们可以各自含有分开的可选择标记物。可替代地,可以使用编码抗体重链和轻链的重组表达载体转染宿主细胞。
本发明的抗体(例如抗FRα抗体)还可以通过化学合成(例如,通过Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis,第2版,1984The Pierce Chemical Co.,Rockford,Ill.中描述的方法)来生产。还可以使用无细胞平台(参见例如,Chu等人,Biochemia No.2,2001(Roche Molecular Biologicals)以及Murray等人,2013,Current Opinion in Chemical Biology,17:420–426)生成变体抗体。
通过重组表达产生的本发明的抗体(例如抗FRα抗体),可以通过本领域已知的用于纯化免疫球蛋白分子的任何方法将它纯化,例如通过层析(例如,离子交换、亲和层析和分级柱层析)、离心、差异溶解度、或纯化蛋白质的任何其它标准技术。例如利用蛋白A或蛋白G进行亲和层析,其主要提供了免疫血清中的IgG级分。另外,可将免疫球蛋白所靶向的特异抗原或其表位固定于柱上,以通过免疫亲和色谱来纯化免疫特异性抗体。本发明的抗体(例如抗FRα抗体)可以与本领域已知的异源多肽序列融合,以促进纯化。免疫球蛋白的纯化可参考D.Wilkinson的文章(The Scientist,由The Scientist,Inc.,Philadelphia Pa.出版,第14卷,第8期(2000年4月17日),第25-28页)。
此外,可以使用本领域技术人员已知的标准技术在编码本发明的抗体的核苷酸序列中引入突变,包括但不限于导致氨基酸取代的定点突变和PCR介导的突变。变体(包括衍生物)编码相对于原重链可变区VH CDR1、VH CDR2、VH CDR3和轻链可变区VL CDR1、VL CDR2、VL CDR3来说少于50个氨基酸的取代、少于40个氨基酸的取代、少于30个氨基酸的取代、少于25个氨基酸的取代、少于20个氨基酸的取代、少于15个氨基酸的取代、少于10个氨基酸的取代、少于5个氨基酸的取代、少于4个氨基酸的取代、少于3个氨基酸的取代或少于2个氨基酸的取代。或者可以沿着全部或部分编码序列随机引入突变,例如通过饱和突变,以及可以筛选所得突变体的生物活性以鉴定保留活性的突变体。在一个或多个实施方式中,本文所述取代为保守氨基酸取代。

实验仪器:Biacore:T200,购自GE Healthcare。
实验过程:
用Protein A芯片进行检测,使用运行缓冲液将抗体稀释至5μg/mL,以10μL/min的流速通过实验流路(Fc2、Fc4),捕获15s使捕获量约为440RU;之后流速调为30μL/min,依次进分析物不同浓度的抗原稀释液(0nM、1.23nM、3.7nM、11.1nM、33.3nM、100nM,用运行缓冲液稀释),同时经过实验流路(Fc2、Fc4)和参比流路(Fc1、Fc3)表面,结合时间180s,解离时间450s,最后用Glycine pH1.5对芯片进行再生60s,然后进行下一个循环。
结果处理:
用数据分析软件Evaluation Software 3.1对试验结果进行分析,将样品试验流路采集所得传感信号进行参比流路、样品空白双扣减,并选用动力学“1:1”模型进行拟合,得出各样品同抗原的动力学参数(Ka:结合速率;Kd:解离速率;KD:结合解离平衡常数)。结果如表7所示。
