Definitions
- Cellular adhesion molecules such as selectin molecules, play a fundamental role in a broad range of critical physiological functions, including inflammation, thrombus formation, and wound healing. Dysfunction of cellular adhesion molecules, for example arising from congenital or spontaneous mutation of genes encoding one or more cellular adhesion molecules, can give rise to serious medical conditions.
- P-selectin which is also known as CD62P, is a transmembrane cellular adhesion molecule expressed by activated endothelial cells and activated platelets. P-selectin is known to play an important role in binding to cells (e.g., circulating immune cells, such as leukocytes). In many cases, interactions between P-selectin and a target cell (e.g., an immune cell) are mediated by interactions between P-selectin and P-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (PSGL-1) expressed on the target cell’s surface.
- PSGL-1 P-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1
- E-selectin also known as CD62E, is a transmembrane cellular adhesion molecule expressed on the surface of endothelial cells following inflammation or injury. E-selectin recognizes sialo-fucosylated Lewis carbohydrates expressed on the surface of the leucocytes, and thus is involved in the recruitment of neutrophils, monocytes, and T cells to inflammatory site.
- the full-length amino acid sequence of human E-selectin is provided in UniProtKB Accession No. P16581 and NCBI Ref. Sequence NP_000441.2 and the mature form of human E-selectin is provided as amino acid residues 22-610.
- P-selectin and/or E-selectin expressed on the surface of activated endothelial cells plays a significant role in mediating tethering and initial rolling interactions between circulating immune cells (e g., leukocytes) and the activated endothelial cells on which the P-selectin and/or E- selectin is expressed, for example, as part of a systemic inflammatory response.
- circulating immune cells e.g., leukocytes
- P-selectin expressed by activated platelets can mediate interactions between the activated platelet on which it is expressed and circulating immune cells (e.g., leukocytes).

- the three CDRs in the antibody heavy chain and the antibody light chain interrupt four framework regions in the heavy chain variable domain and the light chain variable domain.
- the CDRs of each chain are ty pically referred to as CDR1 , CDR2, and CDR3, numbered sequentially starting from the N-terminus, and are also typically identified by the chain in which the particular CDR is located.
- framework regions of different light immunoglobulin chains and different heavy immunoglobulin chains are relatively conserved within different antibodies produced by a mammal.
- the framework regions of light and heavy immunoglobulin chains serve to position and align the CDRs in three-dimensional space.
- Framework sequences can be obtained from public DNA databases or published references that include germline antibody gene sequences. For example, germline DNA sequences for human heavy and light chain variable region genes can be found in the “VBASE2” germline variable gene sequence database for human and mouse sequences.
- “Monospecific” antigen-binding protein refers to the ability 7 of the antigen-binding protein, such as an antibody, to bind only one epitope.
- “Bispecific” antigen-binding protein refers to the ability of the antigen-binding protein to bind two different epitopes.

- a multispecific antigen-binding protein such as a multispecific antibody, encompasses a bispecific antigen-binding protein or a bispecific antibody.
- the epitopes can be on the same antigen, or each epitope can be on a different antigen. Therefore, in certain embodiments, a multispecific antigen-binding protein provided herein, such as a bispecific antibody, binds to two different antigens. In certain embodiments, the multispecific antigen-binding protein, such as a bispecific antibody, binds to different epitopes on one antigen.

- Yeast presenting human antibodies on their surface that bind to an antigen of interest can be selected using FACS (Fluorescence-Activated Cell Sorting) based methods or bycapture on beads using labelled antigens.
- Transgenic animals that have been modified to express human immunoglobulin genes can be immunized with an antigen of interest and antigen-specific human antibodies isolated using B-cell sorting techniques. Human antibodies produced using these techniques can then be characterized for desired properties such as affinity, developability and selectivity.

- a suitable human acceptor antibody may be one selected from a conventional database, e.g., the KABAT database, Los Alamos database, and Swiss Protein database, by homology to the nucleotide and amino acid sequences of the donor antibody.
- a human antibody characterized by a homology to the framework regions of the donor antibody (on an amino acid basis) may be suitable to provide a heavy chain constant region and/or a heavy chain variable framework region for insertion of the donor CDRs.
- a suitable acceptor antibody capable of donating light chain constant or variable framework regions may be selected in a similar manner. It should be noted that the acceptor antibody heavy and light chains are not required to originate from the same acceptor antibody.
- the prior art describes several ways of producing such humanized antibodies - see, for example, EP-A- 0239400 and EP-A-054951.
- single variable domain refers to a folded polypeptide domain comprising sequences characteristic of antibody variable domains. It therefore includes complete antibody variable domains such as VH, VHH and VL and modified antibody variable domains, for example, in which one or more loops have been replaced by sequences which are not characteristic of antibody variable domains, or antibody variable domains which have been truncated or comprise N- or C-terminal extensions, as well as folded fragments of variable domains which retain at least the binding activity and specificity of the full-length domain.
- a single variable domain can bind an antigen or epitope independently of a different variable region or domain.
- a "domain antibody” or “DAB” may be considered the same as a "single variable domain”.
- a single variable domain may be a human single variable domain, but also includes single variable domains from other species such as rodent (for example, as disclosed in WO 00/29004 Al), nurse shark and Camelid VHH DABs.
- Camelid VHH are immunoglobulin single variable domain polypeptides that are derived from species including camel, llama, alpaca, dromedary, and guanaco, which produce heavy chain antibodies naturally devoid of light chains.
- Such VHH domains may be humanized according to standard techniques available in the art, and such domains are considered to be "single variable domains".
- VH includes camelid VHH domains.
- VH and/or VL domains disclosed herein may be incorporated, e.g., in the form of a scFv. into CAR-T therapeutics.
- the term '‘promoter” means a DNA sequence recognized by enzymes/proteins in a cell (e.g., a mammalian cell, a hepatocyte) required to initiate the transcription of an operably linked coding sequence (e.g., a nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide (e.g., any of the exemplary polypeptides described herein).
- a promoter typically refers, to e.g., a nucleotide sequence to which an RNA polymerase and/or any associated factor binds and at which transcription is initiated.
- the promoter can be constitutive, inducible, or tissue-specific (e.g., a liver-specific promoter).
- the term “enhancer” refers to a nucleotide sequence that can increase the transcription of an operably linked nucleic acid (e.g., a nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide (e.g., any of the exemplary polypeptides described herein).
- An enhancer can increase the level of transcription by providing additional binding sites for transcription-associated proteins (e.g., transcription factors). Unlike promoters, enhancers can act at distances further away from the transcription start site (e.g., as compared to a promoter).
- '‘homology” or “similarity” between two proteins is determined by comparing the amino acid sequence and its conserved amino acid substitutes of one protein sequence to the second protein sequence. Similarity may be determined by procedures which are well-known in the art, for example, a BLAST program (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool at the National Center for Biological Information).
- nucleic or percent “identity ,” in the context of two or more polypeptide sequences, refer to two or more sequences or subsequences that are the same or have a specified percentage of amino acid residues, e.g., at least 60%, at least 65%, at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, or at least 95% or greater, that are identical over a specified region when compared and aligned for maximum correspondence over a comparison window or designated region, as measured using a sequence comparison algorithm or by manual alignment and visual inspection.
- sequence comparison of polypeptides typically one amino acid sequence acts as a reference sequence, to which a candidate sequence is compared. Alignment can be performed using various methods available to one of skill in the art, e.g., visual alignment or using publicly available software using known algorithms to achieve maximal alignment. Such programs include the BLAST programs, ALIGN, ALIGN-2 or Megalign. The parameters employed for an alignment to achieve maximal alignment can be determined by one of skill in the art. For sequence comparison of polypeptide sequences for purposes of this application, the BLASTP algorithm standard protein BLAST for aligning two proteins sequence with the default parameters is used.
- affinity refers to the strength of the sum of all non-covalent interactions between an antigen-binding site and its antigen. Unless otherwise indicated, “affinity” refers to intrinsic binding affinity, which reflects a 1 : 1 interaction between an antigenbinding domain and an antigen. Affinity can be measured, e.g., using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology (e.g., BIACORE®) or biolayer interferometry (e.g., FORTEBIO®).
- SPR surface plasmon resonance
- BIACORE® BIACORE®
- biolayer interferometry e.g., FORTEBIO®
- single-chain polypeptide means a polypeptide comprising a single polypeptide chain.
- multi-chain polypeptide means a complex of two or more (e.g., 2. 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8) polypeptide chains (e.g., the same or different polypeptide chains) that covalently and/or non-covalently associate with each other.
- polypeptide chains of a multi-chain polypeptide can associate through the use of tw o domains that associate with each other (e.g., tw o Fc domains or IL-15 and the sushi domain of IL-15 receptor alpha).
- variable domain residue numbering as in Kabat or “amino acid position numbering as in Kabat”, and variations thereof, refers to the numbering system used for heavy chain variable domains or light chain variable domains of the compilation of antibodies in Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md. (1991). Using this numbering system, the actual linear amino acid sequence may contain few er or additional amino acids corresponding to a shortening of, or insertion into, a FR or CDR of the variable domain.
- the Kabat numbering of residues may be determined for a given antibody by alignment at regions of homology of the sequence of the antibody with a "‘standard’’ Kabat numbered sequence. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that there are alternative numbering conventions for amino acid residues in variable domain sequences and full-length antibody sequences. There are also alternative numbering conventions for CDR sequences, for example those set out in Chothia et al. (1989) Nature 342:877-883.
- CDR sequences available to a skilled person include “AbM” (University' of Bath) and “contact’’ (university' College London) methods.
- the minimum overlapping region using at least two of the Kabat, Chothia, AbM and contact methods can be determined to provide the ‘minimum binding unit’.
- the minimum binding unit may be a sub-portion of a CDR.
- Table I below represents one definition using each numbering convention for each CDR or binding unit.
- the Kabat numbering scheme is used in Table 1 to number variable domain amino acid sequence.
- some of the CDR definition may vary depending on the individual publication used.

- the target moleculebinding polypeptide such as an antibody in a host cell
- post-translational modifications may occur. For example, this may include the cleavage of certain leader sequences, the addition of various sugar moieties in various glycosylation patterns, non-enzymatic glycation, deamidation, oxidation, disulfide bond scrambling and other cysteine variants such as free sulfhydryls, racemized disulfides, thioethers and trisulfide bonds, isomerization, C- terminal lysine clipping, and N-terminal glutamine cyclisation.
- Glycation is a post-translational non-enzymatic chemical reaction between a reducing sugar, such as glucose, and a free amine group in the protein, and is typically observed at the epsilon amine of lysine side chains or at the N-Terminus of the protein. Glycation can occur during production and storage only in the presence of reducing sugars.
- a reducing sugar such as glucose
- Deamidation can occur during production and storage, is an enzymatic reaction primarily converting asparagine (N) to iso-aspartic acid (iso-aspartate) and aspartic acid (aspartate) (D) at approximately 3:1 ratio. This deamidation reaction is therefore related to isomerization of aspartate (D) to iso-aspartate.
- the deamidation of asparagine and the isomerization of aspartate both involve the intermediate succinimide.
- deamidation can occur with glutamine residues in a similar manner. Deamidation can occur in a CDR, in a Fab (non-CDR region), or in the Fc region.
- Oxidation can occur during production and storage (for example in the presence of oxidizing conditions) and results in a covalent modification of a protein, induced either directly by reactive oxygen species or indirectly by reaction with secondary by-products of oxidative stress. Oxidation happens primarily with methionine residues, but may occur at try ptophan and free cysteine residues. Oxidation can occur in a CDR, in a Fab (non-CDR) region, or in the Fc region.
- Disulfide bond scrambling can occur during production and basic storage conditions. Under certain circumstances, disulfide bonds can break or form incorrectly, resulting in unpaired cysteine residues (-SH). These free (unpaired) sulfhydryls (-SH) can promote shuffling.
- thioether and racemization of a disulphide bond can occur under basic conditions, in production or storage, through a beta elimination of disulphide bridges back to cysteine residues via a dehydroalanine and persulfide intermediate. Subsequent crosslinking of dehydroalanine and cysteine results in the formation of a thioether bond or the free cysteine residues can reform a disulphide bond with a mixture of D- and /.-cysteine.
- Trisulfides result from insertion of a sulfur atom into a disulphide bond (Cys-S-S- S-Cys ) and are formed due to the presence of hydrogen sulphide in production cell culture.
- N-terminal glutamine (Q.) and glutamate (glutamic acid) (E) in the heavy chain and/or light chain is likely to form pyroglutamate (pGlu) via cyclization. Most pGlu formation happens in the production bioreactor, but it can be formed non-enzymatically, depending on pH and temperature of processing and storage conditions. Cyclization of N-terminal Q. or E is commonly observed in natural human antibodies.
- C-terminal lysine clipping is an enzy matic reaction catalyzed by carboxypeptidases, and is commonly observed in recombinant and natural human antibodies. Variants of this process include removal of lysine from one or both heavy chains due to cellular enzymes from the recombinant host cell. Upon administration to the human subject/patient is likely to result in the removal of any remaining C- terminal lysines.
- the target molecule-binding polypeptide may have a half-life (serum half-life) of at least 6 hours, at least 1 day, at least 2 days, at least 3 days, at least 4 days, at least 5 days, at least 7 days, or at least 9 days in vivo in humans, or in a murine animal model.

- Mutational changes to the Fc effector portion of the antibody can be used to change the affinity of the interaction between the FcRn and antibody to modulate antibody turnover.
- the half-life of the antibody can be extended in vivo. This could be beneficial to patient populations as maximal dose amounts and maximal dosing frequencies could be achieved as a result of maintaining in vivo I C50 for longer periods of time.
