Description

Multispecific antibody and application thereof Technical Field
The present invention relates to a novel multispecific antibody and uses thereof.
Background
Bispecific antibodies are an antibody that can bind to two different antigens or two different epitopes on one antigen, thereby producing an additive or synergistic effect over the effect of a single antibody, and are now becoming a new class of therapeutic antibodies.
Existing antibody formats such as cross mab, DVD-Ig, trioMab, FIT-Ig, etc., among which a common format for an IgG-like bispecific antibody is: one arm binds to the a antigen and the other to the B antigen, consisting of half of the a antibody and half of the B antibody, with a size and shape similar to that of natural IgG. To facilitate downstream development, it is desirable that such bispecific antibodies can be readily produced and properly assembled at high expression levels from a single host cell, as normal IgG. Unfortunately, in general, there will be random pairing between the light and heavy chains, 16 possibilities for the final assembled antibody molecule, 10 protein molecules, and, assuming the probability of each pairing is the same (in practice, there will be some difference in probability), the final diabody molecule we need will be only 1/8 or 12.5% of all products.
The interface between the light chain and the heavy chain comprises a variable domain (VH-VL) and a constant domain (CH 1-CL). Several schemes have been applied to the design of the light chain-heavy chain interface to facilitate homologous pairing. Roche exchanged the domains of CH1 and CL and created a CrossMab platform; medImmune alternatively incorporates disulfide linkages; amgen further modifies the electrostatic effect in the CH1-CL region; and Lilly and Genntech introduced mutations in both the variable and constant domains; the core of the medicine's organism WuxiBody is to replace the constant region of Fab by that of TCR, avoiding the mismatch of light chain-heavy chain. However, selective pairing of individual light chain-heavy chain of individual antibodies remains challenging.
The correct pairing of light chain-heavy chain and the correct assembly of two different antibodies cannot be automatically controlled based on bispecific antibodies, wherein various mismatches in a random manner may lead to significant product heterogeneity. Thus, there is a need in the art to design bispecific antibodies with high expression levels, high affinity for antigen, and the ability to pair and assemble correctly.

Definition of the definition
The "antibody" of the present invention includes antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof, including antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof engineered on the basis of immunoglobulins while retaining the ability to bind antigen; including monospecific antibodies, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies); monovalent or multivalent antibodies are also included. A natural whole antibody comprises two heavy chains and two light chains. Each heavy chain consists of one variable region (VH) and first, second and third constant regions (CH 1, CH2, CH3, respectively), while each light chain consists of one variable region (VL) and one constant region (CL). The antibody is "Y" shaped, the backbone of which is composed of the second and third constant regions of two heavy chains, which are bound by disulfide bonds. Each arm of the "Y" structure comprises a variable region and a first constant region of one of the heavy chains, which is associated with the variable and constant regions of the light chain. The variable regions of the light and heavy chains are responsible for antigen binding. The variable region of each chain contains three hypervariable regions, called Complementarity Determining Regions (CDRs) (CDRs of the light (L) chain comprise LCDR1, LCDR2, LCDR3, CDRs of the heavy (H) chain comprise HCDR1, HCDR2, HCDR 3). Wherein three CDRs are separated by laterally contiguous portions called Framework Regions (FR), which are more highly conserved than the CDRs and form a scaffold-supported hypervariable loop. VH and VL each contain 4 FR, and CDR and FR are arranged from amino-terminus to carboxy-terminus in the following order: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4. The constant regions of the heavy and light chains do not participate in antigen binding, but have multiple effector functions. Antibodies can be classified into several classes according to the amino acid sequence of the heavy chain constant region. Mammalian antibody heavy chains can be classified as α, δ, ε, γ, and μ, and mammalian antibody light chains can be classified as λ or κ. Antibodies can be divided into five main classes or isotypes depending on whether they contain α, δ, ε, γ and μ heavy chains: igA, igD, igE, igG and IgM. Several major classes of antibodies can also be classified into subclasses, such as IgG1 (gamma 1 heavy chain), igG2 (gamma 2 heavy chain), igG3 (gamma 3 heavy chain), igG4 (gamma 4 heavy chain), igA1 (alpha 1 heavy chain), or IgA2 (alpha 2 heavy chain), among others. Antibodies of the invention include antibodies with intact constant regions, such as antibodies comprising only CH1, CH1 and CH2, CH1 and CH3, CH2 and CH3, and the like, in addition to antibodies with intact constant regions as described above. In summary, the term "antibody" as used herein includes, but is not limited to, any immunoglobulin, monoclonal antibody, polyclonal antibody, multispecific antibody, or bispecific antibody that can bind to a particular antigen, and all such antibodies that exhibit the desired antigen-binding activity are encompassed by the present invention.
The number of different target antigens or different epitopes bound by an antibody is classified into a monospecific antibody, a bispecific antibody, a trispecific antibody, a tetraspecific antibody … …, and a multispecific antibody (which binds to two or more different target antigens or different epitopes). For example, the term "bispecific antibody" refers to an antibody capable of specifically binding to two different antigens or two different epitopes of the same antigen. Bispecific antibodies of various structures have been disclosed in the prior art; the IgG-like bispecific antibodies and antibody fragment-type bispecific antibodies can be classified according to the integrity of the IgG molecule; bispecific antibodies that can be classified as bivalent, trivalent, tetravalent, or more multivalent in configuration depending on the number of antigen binding regions; the structure-based bispecific antibody can be classified into a symmetric structure-based bispecific antibody and an asymmetric structure-based bispecific antibody according to whether the structure is symmetric or not.
The term "antigen" or "antigenic molecule" as used herein is used interchangeably and refers to all molecules capable of being specifically bound by an antibody, a bivalent bispecific antibody specifically binding a first antigen and a second antigen, wherein the first antigen and the second antigen may be two different antigens or different epitopes of the same antigen. The term "antigen" or "antigenic molecule" as used herein includes, for example, proteins, different epitopes on proteins (as different antigens within the meaning of the invention), and polysaccharides, etc. Preferably, the antigen is selected from the group consisting of cytokines, cell surface proteins, enzymes and receptors. The antigen targeted by the antibody of the present invention is selected from, but not limited to, one of T Cell Receptor (TCR), natural killer group 2D (NKG 2D) receptor, tumor-associated antigen, infectious disease-associated antigen, and autoimmune disease-associated antigen. The antigen specificity may be for any suitable antigen or epitope, for example, an exogenous antigen, an endogenous antigen, a self antigen, a neoantigen, a viral antigen, or a tumor antigen. Exogenous antigens are inhaled, ingested or injected into the body and can be presented by Antigen Presenting Cells (APC) and form MHC class II complexes by endocytosis or phagocytosis. Endogenous antigens can be produced in normal cells due to cellular metabolism, intracellular viral or bacterial infection, which can form MHC class I complexes. Autoantigens (e.g., peptides, DNA or RNA, etc.) are recognized by the immune system of a patient suffering from an autoimmune disease, and under normal conditions, the antigen should not be a target of the immune system. The neoantigen is not present at all in a normal organism but is generated due to a certain disease (e.g., tumor or cancer). In certain embodiments, the antigen is associated with a disease (e.g., tumor or cancer, autoimmune disease, infectious and parasitic disease, cardiovascular disease, neuropathy, neuropsychiatric disorder, injury, inflammation, coagulation disorder). In certain embodiments, the antigen is associated with the immune system (e.g., immune cells, such as B cells, T cells, NK cells, macrophages, etc.).
The terms "specific binding", "selective binding" refer to binding of an antibody to an epitope on a predetermined antigen. Typically, the antibody binds with an affinity (K D) of about less than 10 -7 M, e.g., about less than 10 -8M、10 -9M、10 -10M、10 -11M、10 -12 M or less. K D refers to the dissociation equilibrium constant of a particular antibody-antigen interaction, typically, antibodies of the present disclosure bind antigen with a dissociation equilibrium constant (K D) of less than about 10 -7 M, e.g., less than about 10 -8 M or 10 -9 M.
The term "Fab fragment" refers to a fragment capable of binding an antigen, which fragment comprises the CH-CH1 structure of the light chain VL-CL and the heavy chain, which fragment can be produced by enzymatic treatment of an antibody.
The term "Fc region" or "Fc fragment" refers to the portion of an antibody that consists of the CH2 constant domain and/or CH3 constant domain of a first heavy chain bound via disulfide bonds to the CH2 constant domain and/or CH3 constant domain of a second heavy chain. The Fc of antibodies is responsible for a number of different effector functions, such as ADCC and CDC, but is not involved in antigen binding.
The term "electrostatic interactions" is a non-covalent interaction and plays an important role in protein folding, stability, flexibility and function, including ionic interactions, hydrogen bonding and halogen bonding. Electrostatic interactions may be formed in the polypeptide, for example between Lys and Asp, between Lys and Glu, between Glu and Arg, or between Glu, trp on the first chain and Arg, val or Thr on the second chain.
The term "hydrophilic interaction" refers to molecules with polar groups that have a great affinity for water and are capable of forming transient bonds with water via hydrogen bonds.
The term "hydrophobic interaction" refers to the phenomenon in which hydrophobic groups aggregate close to each other to avoid boiling water.
The term "leucine zipper" structure is a structural motif found in DNA binding proteins and other proteins, and a leucine zipper is formed when the hydrophobic faces of two alpha-helices (often containing leucine residues) from the same or different polypeptide chains interact to form a loop-to-loop dimer structure. Specifically, the leucine zipper is composed of extended amino acids, the 7 th amino acid of every 7 amino acids is leucine, leucine is a hydrophobic amino acid, arranged on one side of the alpha helix, and all charged amino acid residues are arranged on the other side. When two protein molecules are aligned in parallel, leucine interacts with each other to form a dimer, forming a "zipper" structure. The leucine zipper domain is a peptide that promotes oligomerization of proteins in which the leucine zipper domain is present. Known leucine zippers include dimeric or trimeric naturally occurring peptides and derivatives thereof. The leucine zipper structure pair can be selected from: fos protein/Jun protein, fosW protein/Jun protein, myc protein/Max protein, winzipA/WinzipB1, ACID-p1 protein/BASE-p 1 protein, GCN4 protein/GCN 4 domain, C/EBP protein/C/EBP protein, functional variants of the above proteins/domains.

The interface comprises one or more amino acid residues that interact with corresponding amino acid residues that are contacted or associated when the interaction occurs. The amino acid residues in the interface may or may not be in a contiguous sequence. For example, when the interface is three-dimensional, amino acid residues within the interface may be separated at different positions on the linear sequence.
"Handle entry structure" or "knobs-intos" or "Knob into hole" or "KIH" as used in the present application refers to an interaction between two polypeptides, one having a protuberance (i.e., "knob") due to the presence of an amino acid residue with a bulky side chain (e.g., tyrosine or tryptophan) and the other having a small side chain amino acid residue (e.g., alanine or threonine) to form a cavity/pit (i.e., "hole"), and the protuberance can be placed within the cavity/pit to facilitate the interaction of the two polypeptides to form a heterodimer or complex. Methods for producing polypeptides having knobs-into-holes are well known in the art, for example, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,731,168. Illustratively, the Knob sequence is T366W and the Hole sequence is T366S-L368A-Y407V (the numbering sequence is IgG according to the Kabat numbering convention).
The term "operably linked" or "operably linked" refers to the joining of two or more biological sequences such that they are joined in a manner that they function in the intended manner, whether or not a linker (also called a linker, junction sequence) is present. When in a polypeptide, the term means that the polypeptide sequences are linked in such a way that the linked product has the desired biological function, with or without a linker between the two sequences. For example, an antibody variable region can be operably linked to a constant region to form a stable product having antigen binding activity. The term may also be used for polynucleotides. For example, when a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide is operably linked to a regulatory sequence (e.g., a promoter, enhancer, silencer sequence, etc.), the term indicates that the polynucleotide sequences are linked in a manner that allows for the regulated expression of the polypeptide by the polynucleotide.
The term "linker" or "spacer" or "linker" refers to a convenient or border region where two polypeptide sequences are fused or combined. For example, the linking domain may comprise at least a portion of a C-terminal fragment of a two-character first fusion polypeptide fused to at least a portion of an N-terminal fragment of a leydig second fusion polypeptide with or without additional linkers therebetween. For example, the linker may be enriched in glycine and proline residues, such as a linker having a single or repeated sequence of threonine/serine composition, GGS, GGGGS, TGGGG, SGGGG or tandem repeats thereof (e.g., 2,3, or more repeats).
The term "dimerization domain" refers to a domain capable of promoting association with each other to form a dimer. In some embodiments, the first dimerization domain may be associated with the second dimerization domain. The association may be by any suitable means, such as binding or linking or bonding; for example, via a linker, disulfide bond, hydrogen bond, electrostatic interaction, salt bridge, or hydrophobic-hydrophilic interaction, or a combination thereof. Exemplary dimerization domains include, but are not limited to, antibody hinge regions, antibody CH2 domains, antibody CH3 domains, and/or other suitable protein monomers or polypeptides capable of dimerizing interactions with each other. The hinge region, CH2 constant domain, CH3 constant domain may be derived from any antibody isotype, e.g., igG1, igG2, igG3, and IgG4.
The term "mismatch" refers to the interaction or association of two or more homologous or heterologous polypeptides to form an undesired dimer or multispecific pairing. "less prone to mismatches" means that, for example, when polypeptides A1, B2 and B2 are co-expressed, if the amount of desired A1-B1 dimer is greater than the amount of A1-B2 dimer, then preferential pairing between A1-B1 is considered to occur, i.e., mismatches between A1-B2 are not agreed to occur. In some embodiments, in a bispecific/multispecific antibody, a mismatch is not readily occurring between VL1 of the first light chain and VL2 of the second heavy chain, and/or a mismatch is not readily occurring between VL1 of the first heavy chain and VL2 of the second light chain, but rather a preferential pairing between VH1-VL1, and a preferential pairing between VH2-VL 2.
The term "nucleic acid" or "polynucleotide" as used herein refers to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or ribonucleic acid (RNA) and polymers thereof in single or double stranded form. Unless specifically limited, the term encompasses polynucleotides containing known natural nucleotide analogs that have similar binding properties as the reference nucleic acid and are metabolized in a manner similar to naturally occurring nucleotides. Unless otherwise indicated, a particular polynucleotide sequence also implies conservatively modified variants thereof (e.g., degenerate codon substitutions), alleles, homologous genes, SNPs, and complementary sequences, as well as the sequence explicitly indicated.
The terms "homology", "identity" refer to sequence similarity between multiple polynucleotides or between two polypeptides. When referring to a nucleic acid or fragment thereof, it means that when optimally aligned with appropriate nucleotide substitutions, insertions or deletions with another nucleic acid (or its complement), there is nucleotide sequence identity in at least about 80%, more preferably at least about 81%,85%,90%,91%,92%,93%,94%,95%,96%,97%,98% or 99% of the nucleotide bases as calculated using any of the sequence identity calculation programs described below, such as FASTA, BLAST or Gap. When applied to polypeptides, it is intended that when optimally aligned with default Gap or BESTFIT and like procedures, the two peptide sequences have at least 80% sequence identity, more preferably at least 81%,85%,90%,91%,92%,93%,94%,95%,96%,97%,98% or 99% sequence identity, and the different residue positions may differ by amino acid substitutions, deletions or insertions, more preferably by conservative amino acid substitutions.
The term "affinity" refers to the strength of the sum of non-covalent interactions between a single binding site of a molecule (e.g., an antibody) and its binding partner (e.g., an antigen). As used herein, unless otherwise specified, "binding affinity" refers to the inherent binding affinity of a 1:1 interaction between members of a reactive binding pair (e.g., antibody and antigen). The affinity of a molecule X for its partner Y can generally be represented by an equilibrium dissociation constant (K D), dissociation constant (K d) or binding constant (K a). Affinity can be measured by general methods known in the art, including those described herein. Specific illustrative and exemplary embodiments for measuring binding affinity are described below.

For example, the carrier comprises: plasmids, phagemids, cosmids, artificial chromosomes such as Yeast Artificial Chromosomes (YACs), bacterial Artificial Chromosomes (BACs) or P1-derived artificial chromosomes (PACs), phages such as lambda or M13 phages, animal viruses, and the like. Animal virus species used as vectors include retroviruses (including lentiviruses), adenoviruses, adeno-associated viruses, herpesviruses (e.g., herpes simplex viruses), poxviruses, baculoviruses, papillomaviruses, papilloma-polyomaviruses (e.g., SV 40).

Detailed Description
Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to examples, but it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the following examples are only for illustrating the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. The specific conditions are not noted in the examples and are carried out according to conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer. The reagents or apparatus used were conventional products commercially available without the manufacturer's attention.
Examples
The present invention illustratively constructs a bispecific antibody capable of simultaneously targeting DLL3 and CD3 and a bispecific antibody capable of simultaneously targeting TROP2 and PRLR to demonstrate the multi-specific antibody platform technology according to the concepts of the present invention. Examples 1-7 are bispecific antibody-related experiments capable of simultaneously targeting DLL3 and CD3, and examples 8-12 are bispecific antibodies capable of simultaneously targeting TROP2 and PRLR and targeted TROP2 monoclonal antibody-related experiments.
Target introduction
DLL3: notch signaling pathways are widely found in a variety of animals, are highly conserved in evolution, and regulate the differentiation of neuroendocrine and epithelial cells upon embryonic development through interactions between adjacent cells. Mammals have 4 Notch receptors (Notch 1, notch2, notch3, notch 4), 5 Notch ligands (DLL 1, DLL3, DLL4, jagged2, and Jagged 2). DLL3 (Delta-like protein 3) is one of the 5 ligands of Notch, DLL3 is typically expressed in the developing central nervous system and plays a key role in somite generation. DLL3 can regulate the differentiation, growth and proliferation processes of cells and indirectly promote or inhibit the occurrence of tumors by inhibiting Notch signal channels. DLL3 is specifically highly expressed on the surface of SCLC (SMALL CELL lung cancer) cells as a ligand of the Notch pathway. DLL3 plays an important role in tumor initiation and epithelial-mesenchymal transition, invasion and metastasis of SCLC.
CD3: t cell co-receptors are protein complexes consisting of four distinct chains (the cd3γ chain, the cd3δ chain, and two cd3ε chains). These four chains associate with molecules known as T Cell Receptors (TCRs) and zeta chains to generate activation signals in T lymphocytes. TCR, zeta chain and CD3 molecules constitute TCR complexes in which TCR as subunit is used to recognize and bind antigen, and CD3 as subunit is used to transfer and carry antigen stimuli to the signaling pathway, and ultimately modulate T cell activity. CD3 protein is present in almost all T cells. The CD3-TCR complex regulates T cell function in innate and adaptive immune responses, as well as cellular and humoral immune functions. These include the elimination of pathogenic organisms and the control of tumor growth through a broad range of cytotoxic effects. Mouse monoclonal antibodies specific for human CD3, such as OKT3 (Kung et al, science,206:347-9 (1979)), are the first generation of CD3 antibodies developed for use in therapy.
TROP2: human trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (human trophoblast cell surface antigen, TROP2) is a cell surface glycoprotein encoded by the TACSTD gene. Numerous clinical studies and literature reports indicate that TROP2 is overexpressed in a variety of cancers of epithelial origin, such as gastric, lung, large intestine, ovarian, breast, prostate, pancreatic, liver, esophageal (Tsujikawa et al. (1999) Nat
Genet.21:420–423;Fong et al.(2008)Modpath.21:186–191;Muhlmann et al.(2009)J Clin Path.62:152–158;andWu et al.(2013)Head&Neck.35:1373–1378). In contrast, TROP2 is expressed little or no in adult normal tissues (Cubas et al. (2009) Biochimica et Biophysica acta.1796:309-314 (Zhang et al. (1997)
Science 276:1268-1272), cells limited to the epithelial region had a small expression, and the expression level was also lower than in cancer, indicating that TROP2 was associated with tumor formation. Overexpression of TROP2 in tumor tissue is closely related to poor prognosis (Wang et al (2008) Mol CANCER THER 7:280-285) and metastasis of cancer cells in patients, while affecting overall survival in patients. Thus, TROP2 has become an attractive target in tumor molecular targeted therapies.
PRLR: the prolactin receptor (PRLR) is capable of interacting with prolactin binding. PRLR is a single transmembrane receptor belonging to the superfamily of class I cytokine receptors. Binding of prolactin to PRLR results in receptor dimerization and intracellular signaling. Signaling through PRLR is associated with various processes such as those involved in breast development, lactation, reproduction and immunomodulation. In addition, high levels of PRLR expression have been detected in breast, prostate and other tumor types. Blockade of PRLR signaling has been suggested as a means of treating breast and prostate cancer. (Damiano et al (2013) Clin. Cancer Res.19 (7): 1644-1650).
