Abstract

The present invention relates to preparations containing anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies, and more particularly to pharmaceutical preparations containing anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies, buffers, stabilizers and surfactants. In addition, the present invention also relates to uses of these preparations for treating or prevention of diseases.

Description

結合PD-1和PD-L1的雙特異性抗體的製劑及其用途 Preparation and use of bispecific antibody combining PD-1 and PD-L1

本發明涉及抗體製劑領域。更具體而言,本發明涉及包含結合人程序性細胞死亡1(PD-1)和人PD-1配體1的雙特異性抗體(也稱為抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體)的穩定的製劑,以及所述製劑的治療和/或預防用途。 The present invention relates to the field of antibody preparations. More specifically, the present invention relates to the stabilization of bispecific antibodies (also known as anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies) that bind human programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and human PD-1 ligand 1 Preparations, and the therapeutic and/or preventive uses of the preparations.

免疫檢查點路徑用於維持自身耐受性及控制T細胞活化,但癌細胞可使用該等路徑來抑制抗腫瘤反應並防止其破壞。PD-1/PD-L1路徑是一種該免疫檢查點。在T細胞上發現人類PD-1,且人類PD-L1由多種腫瘤類型異常表達;PD-L1與PD-1的結合抑制T細胞增殖及細胞介素產生。PD-1/PD-L1抑制性軸已經被腫瘤征服,作為在抗腫瘤免疫反應的背景下使腫瘤進化成形的自然選擇過程的一部分。 Immune checkpoint pathways are used to maintain self-tolerance and control T cell activation, but cancer cells can use these pathways to inhibit anti-tumor responses and prevent their destruction. The PD-1/PD-L1 pathway is one such immune checkpoint. Human PD-1 is found on T cells, and human PD-L1 is abnormally expressed by a variety of tumor types; the combination of PD-L1 and PD-1 inhibits T cell proliferation and cytokine production. The PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitory axis has been conquered by tumors as part of the natural selection process that shapes tumor evolution in the context of anti-tumor immune responses.

儘管靶向PD-1/PD-L1路徑的治療劑在臨床上得到了驗證且已經在治療癌症方面取得了顯著臨床進展,但僅一部分患者受益於該治療(參見,例如,Sharma,P.及Allison,J.P.,Immune checkpoint targeting in cancer therapy:toward combination strategies with curative potential. Cell.2015;161:2015-14)。舉例而言,僅約20%患有非小細胞肺癌(NSCLC)的患者對PD-1抗體治療有反應。 Although therapeutic agents targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway have been clinically validated and have made significant clinical progress in the treatment of cancer, only a portion of patients have benefited from this treatment (see, for example, Sharma, P. and Allison,JP,Immune checkpoint targeting in cancer therapy:toward combination strategies with curative potential. Cell. 2015; 161: 2015-14). For example, only about 20% of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) respond to PD-1 antibody treatment.

儘管目前正在進行涉及共同給藥PD-L1抗體及PD-1抗體的臨床試驗(參見,例如,EUROPEAN SOCIETY FOR MEDICAL ONCOLOGY(ESMO),摘要編號2130;2016年10月),但該治療方案涉及輸注兩種單獨的抗體產品,每種抗體的劑量相對較高。此外,尚未知與單一療法相比,該組合療法是否會提供效能的改良而不會加劇不良事件特性。 Although clinical trials involving the co-administration of PD-L1 antibodies and PD-1 antibodies are currently underway (see, for example, EUROPEAN SOCIETY FOR MEDICAL ONCOLOGY (ESMO), Abstract No. 2130; October 2016), this treatment regimen involves infusion Two separate antibody products, the dosage of each antibody is relatively high. In addition, it is not known whether the combination therapy will provide an improvement in efficacy compared to monotherapy without exacerbating the characteristics of adverse events.

因此,需要以高親和性結合PD-L1及PD-1、有效地中和由所有PDx家族配體的PD-L1及PD-1活化及/或相對於已知靶向PD-1/PD-L1路徑的治療劑提供優異活性或甚至其組合的雙特異性抗體作為某些癌症的更有效的藥理學介入。例如,PCT申請號PCT/US2018/041205中公開了一種對人PD-1/PD-L1特異性的示例性的治療性抗體,其公開內容特此藉由引用整體併入。同時,本領域中需要能夠用來治療、預防或延緩各種癌症和免疫相關疾病的抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體製劑。 Therefore, it is necessary to bind PD-L1 and PD-1 with high affinity, effectively neutralize the activation of PD-L1 and PD-1 by all PDx family ligands, and/or relative to known targets PD-1/PD- The therapeutic agent of the L1 pathway provides bispecific antibodies with excellent activity or even a combination thereof as a more effective pharmacological intervention for certain cancers. For example, PCT application number PCT/US2018/041205 discloses an exemplary therapeutic antibody specific for human PD-1/PD-L1, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. At the same time, there is a need in the art for anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody preparations that can be used to treat, prevent or delay various cancers and immune-related diseases.

用於人類受試者的抗體在使用之前必須儲存和運輸至施用地點。在受試者中可再現地獲得期望的抗體藥物水平要求所述藥物儲存在維持藥物的生物活性的製劑中。同時,相較於靜脈輸注,高濃度製劑皮下給藥更方便安全,能實現病人在家自主給藥,便於慢性病的長期給藥治療;同時高濃度製劑可以滿足高劑量的給藥要求,能夠降低生產成本。開發高濃度製劑已然成為單抗類製劑的發展趨勢。同時,凍乾製劑能夠帶來更優越的製劑穩定性,且藉由複溶時加入更少的液體能夠製備更高濃度的液體製劑。 Antibodies used in human subjects must be stored and transported to the site of administration before use. Reproducibly obtaining the desired antibody drug level in the subject requires that the drug be stored in a formulation that maintains the biological activity of the drug. At the same time, compared to intravenous infusion, subcutaneous administration of high-concentration preparations is more convenient and safer, enabling patients to self-administer at home, which is convenient for long-term treatment of chronic diseases; at the same time, high-concentration preparations can meet the requirements of high-dose administration and reduce production. cost. The development of high-concentration preparations has become the development trend of monoclonal antibody preparations. At the same time, lyophilized formulations can bring about superior formulation stability, and higher concentration liquid formulations can be prepared by adding less liquid during reconstitution.

因此,在本領域中對於含有足夠穩定且適於以各種形式施用給受試者的抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體的新穎藥物製劑仍存在需要。特別需要這樣的製劑,其能夠表現出長的貯存期限,在儲存和運輸時是穩定的,並且適合以高濃度(例如用於皮下施用)和低濃度(例如用於靜脈內施用)施用。 Therefore, there is still a need in the art for novel pharmaceutical formulations containing anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies that are sufficiently stable and suitable for administration to subjects in various forms. There is a particular need for formulations that can exhibit a long shelf life, are stable during storage and transportation, and are suitable for administration at high concentrations (for example, for subcutaneous administration) and low concentrations (for example, for intravenous administration).

發明詳述Detailed description of the invention

在詳細描述本發明之前,應瞭解,本發明不受限於本說明書中的特定方法及實驗條件,因為該方法以及條件是可以改變的。另外,本文所用術語僅是供說明特定實施方案之用,而不意欲為限制性的。 Before describing the present invention in detail, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the specific methods and experimental conditions in this specification, because the methods and conditions can be changed. In addition, the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to be limiting.

定義definition

除非另有定義,否則本文中使用的所有技術和科學術語均具有與本領域一般技術人員通常所理解的含義相同的含義。為了本發明的目的,下文定義了以下術語。 Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art. For the purpose of the present invention, the following terms are defined below.

術語“約”在與數字數值聯合使用時意為涵蓋具有比指定數字數值小5%的下限和比指定數字數值大5%的上限的範圍內的數字數值。 The term "about" when used in conjunction with a numerical value means to cover a numerical value within a range that has a lower limit that is 5% smaller than the specified numerical value and an upper limit that is 5% larger than the specified numerical value.

術語“和/或”當用於連接兩個或多個可選項時,應理解為意指可選項中的任一項或可選項中的任意兩項或多項。 When the term "and/or" is used to connect two or more alternatives, it should be understood to mean any one of the alternatives or any two or more of the alternatives.

如本文中所用,術語“包含”或“包括”意指包括所述的要素、整數或步驟,但是不排除任意其他要素、整數或步驟。在本文中,當使用術語“包含”或“包括”時,除非另有指明,否則也涵蓋由所述及的要素、整數或步驟組成的情形。例如,當提及“包含”某個具體序列的抗體可變區時,也旨在涵蓋由該具體序列組成的抗體可變區。 As used herein, the term "comprising" or "including" means including the stated elements, integers or steps, but does not exclude any other elements, integers or steps. In this document, when the term "comprises" or "includes" is used, unless otherwise specified, it also encompasses the situation consisting of the stated elements, integers or steps. For example, when referring to an antibody variable region that "comprises" a specific sequence, it is also intended to encompass the antibody variable region composed of the specific sequence.

術語“免疫檢查點分子”意指免疫系統中存在的一類抑制性信號分子,藉由調節外周組織中免疫反應的持續性和強度避免組織損傷,並參與維持對於自身抗原的耐受(Pardoll DM.,The blockade of immune checkpoints in cancer immunotherapy.Nat Rev Cancer,2012,12(4):252-264)。研究發現,腫瘤細胞能夠逃避體內免疫系統而失控增殖的原因之一是利用了免疫檢查點分子的抑制性信號通路,由此抑制了T淋巴細胞活性, 使得T淋巴細胞不能有效發揮對腫瘤的殺傷效應(Yao S,Zhu Y和Chen L.,Advances in targeting cell surface signaling molecules for immune modulation.Nat Rev Drug Discov,2013,12(2):130-146)。免疫檢查點分子包括但不限於程序性死亡1(PD-1)、PD-L1、PD-L2、細胞毒T淋巴細胞抗原4(CTLA-4)、LAG-3和TIM-3。 The term "immune checkpoint molecule" refers to a type of inhibitory signal molecule present in the immune system, which prevents tissue damage by regulating the persistence and intensity of immune response in peripheral tissues, and participates in maintaining tolerance to self-antigens (Pardoll DM. , The blockade of immune checkpoints in cancer immunotherapy. Nat Rev Cancer, 2012, 12(4): 252-264). Studies have found that one of the reasons why tumor cells can evade the immune system in the body and proliferate out of control is the use of the inhibitory signaling pathway of immune checkpoint molecules, thereby inhibiting the activity of T lymphocytes. Make T lymphocytes unable to effectively exert the killing effect on tumors (Yao S, Zhu Y and Chen L., Advances in targeting cell surface signaling molecules for immune modulation.

如本文所用,術語“多特異性”抗體指具有至少兩個抗原結合位點的抗體,該至少兩個抗原結合位點中的每一個抗原結合位點與相同抗原的不同表位或與不同抗原的不同表位結合。本文提供的抗體通常是多特異性抗體,例如雙特異性抗體。多特異性抗體是對至少兩個不同抗原表位具有結合特異性的抗體。在一個實施方案中,本文提供了這樣的雙特異性抗體,其具有針對第一抗原和第二抗原的結合特異性。例如第一抗原為PD-L1,第二抗原為PD-1。 As used herein, the term "multispecific" antibody refers to an antibody having at least two antigen binding sites, each of which is associated with a different epitope of the same antigen or with a different antigen. Binding of different epitopes. The antibodies provided herein are generally multispecific antibodies, such as bispecific antibodies. Multispecific antibodies are antibodies that have binding specificities for at least two different epitopes. In one embodiment, provided herein are bispecific antibodies that have binding specificities for a first antigen and a second antigen. For example, the first antigen is PD-L1, and the second antigen is PD-1.

術語“人源化”抗體指包含來自非人類HVR的胺基酸殘基和來自人FR的胺基酸殘基的嵌合抗體。在一些實施方案中,人源化抗體包含全部或基本上全部的HVR(例如,CDR)與非人抗體的那些HVR對應並且全部或基本上全部的FR區與人抗體的那些FR對應。人源化抗體任選地 可以包含從人抗體衍生的抗體恆定區的至少一部分。抗體(例如非人抗體)的“人源化形式”指已經歷過人源化的抗體。 The term "humanized" antibody refers to a chimeric antibody comprising amino acid residues from non-human HVR and amino acid residues from human FR. In some embodiments, the humanized antibody comprises all or substantially all of the HVR (eg, CDR) corresponding to those of the non-human antibody and all or substantially all of the FR regions corresponding to those of the human antibody. Humanized antibody optionally It may comprise at least a part of an antibody constant region derived from a human antibody. A "humanized form" of an antibody (e.g., a non-human antibody) refers to an antibody that has undergone humanization.

術語“Fc區”在本文中用於定義免疫球蛋白重鏈的C端區域,該區域包含至少一部分的恆定區。該術語包括天然序列Fc區和變體Fc區。在某些實施方案中,人IgG重鏈Fc區從Cys226或Pro230延伸至重鏈的羰基端。然而,Fc區的C端賴胺酸(Lys447)可以存在或者可以不存在。除非另外說明,Fc區或恆定區中的胺基酸殘基的編號是根據EU編號系統,其也被稱為EU索引,如在Kabat等,Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,5th Ed.Public Health Service,National Institutes of Health,Bethesda,MD,1991中所述。 The term "Fc region" is used herein to define the C-terminal region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain, which contains at least a portion of the constant region. The term includes native sequence Fc regions and variant Fc regions. In certain embodiments, the Fc region of a human IgG heavy chain extends from Cys226 or Pro230 to the carbonyl end of the heavy chain. However, the C-terminal lysine (Lys447) of the Fc region may or may not be present. Unless otherwise specified, the numbering of amino acid residues in the Fc region or constant region is based on the EU numbering system, which is also called the EU index, as in Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Ed. Public Health Service , National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, 1991.

術語“可變區”或“可變結構域”是指參與抗體與抗原結合的抗體重或輕鏈的結構域。天然抗體的重鏈和輕鏈的可變結構域通常具有相似的結構,其中每個結構域包含四個保守的框架區(FR)和三個互補決定區(參見,例如,Kindt等Kuby Immunology,6th ed.,W.H.Freeman and Co.91頁(2007))。單個VH或VL結構域可以足以給予抗原結合特異性。此外,可以使用來自與特定抗原結合的抗體的VH或VL結構域來分離結合該抗原的抗體,以分別篩選互補VL或VH結構域的文庫。參見,例如,Portolano等,J.Immunol.150:880-887(1993);Clarkson等,Nature 352:624-628(1991)。 The term "variable region" or "variable domain" refers to the domain of the heavy or light chain of an antibody that participates in the binding of an antibody to an antigen. The variable domains of the heavy and light chains of natural antibodies usually have similar structures, where each domain contains four conserved framework regions (FR) and three complementarity determining regions (see, for example, Kindt et al. Kuby Immunology, 6th ed., WH Freeman and Co. 91 pages (2007)). A single VH or VL domain may be sufficient to give antigen binding specificity. In addition, VH or VL domains from antibodies that bind to a specific antigen can be used to isolate antibodies that bind to that antigen to screen libraries of complementary VL or VH domains, respectively. See, for example, Portolano et al., J. Immunol. 150:880-887 (1993); Clarkson et al., Nature 352:624-628 (1991).

可變區通常表現出由三個高變區連接的相對保守的構架區(FR)的相同的一般結構,該高變區也被稱為互補決定區或CDR。通常藉由構架區定位(align)來自每對的兩條鏈的CDR,該CDR使得可結合特異性 表位。兩條輕鏈和重鏈可變區從N-末端到C-末端通常包含結構域FR1、CDR1、FR2、CDR2、FR3、CDR3和FR4。 Variable regions usually exhibit the same general structure of relatively conserved framework regions (FR) connected by three hypervariable regions, which are also called complementarity determining regions or CDRs. The CDRs from the two chains of each pair are usually aligned by the framework regions, which allow specific binding gauge. The variable regions of the two light and heavy chains usually comprise the domains FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, and FR4 from N-terminus to C-terminus.

“互補決定區”或“CDR區”或“CDR”或“高變區”(在本文中與超變區“HVR”可以互換使用),是抗體可變結構域中在序列上高變並且形成在結構上確定的環(“超變環”)和/或含有抗原接觸殘基(“抗原接觸點”)的區域。CDR主要負責與抗原表位結合。重鏈和輕鏈的CDR通常被稱作CDR1、CDR2和CDR3,從N-端開始順序編號。位於抗體重鏈可變結構域內的CDR被稱作HCDR1、HCDR2和HCDR3,而位於抗體輕鏈可變結構域內的CDR被稱作LCDR1、LCDR2和LCDR3。在一個給定的輕鏈可變區或重鏈可變區胺基酸序列中,各CDR的精確胺基酸序列邊界可以使用許多公知的抗體CDR指派系統的任一種或其組合確定,該指派系統包括例如:基於抗體的三維結構和CDR環的拓撲學的Chothia(Chothia等人.(1989)Nature 342:877-883,Al-Lazikani等人,“Standard conformations for the canonical structures of immunoglobulins”,Journal of Molecular Biology,273,927-948(1997)),基於抗體序列可變性的Kabat(Kabat等人,Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,第4版,U.S.Department of Health and Human Services,National Institutes of Health(1987)),AbM(University of Bath),Contact(University College London),國際ImMunoGeneTics database(IMGT)(萬維網imgt.cines.fr/),以及基於利用大量晶體結構的近鄰傳播聚類(affinity propagation clustering)的North CDR定義(North等,“A New Clustering of Antibody CDR Loop Conformations”,Journal of Molecular Biology,406,228-256(2011))。 "Complementarity determining region" or "CDR region" or "CDR" or "hypervariable region" (herein can be used interchangeably with hypervariable region "HVR") is an antibody variable domain that is hypervariable in sequence and forms Structurally defined loops ("hypervariable loops") and/or regions containing antigen contact residues ("antigen contact points"). CDR is mainly responsible for binding to antigen epitopes. The CDRs of the heavy chain and light chain are usually referred to as CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3, and are numbered sequentially from the N-terminus. The CDRs located in the variable domain of the antibody heavy chain are called HCDR1, HCDR2, and HCDR3, and the CDRs located in the variable domain of the antibody light chain are called LCDR1, LCDR2, and LCDR3. In a given light chain variable region or heavy chain variable region amino acid sequence, the precise amino acid sequence boundaries of each CDR can be determined using any one or a combination of many well-known antibody CDR assignment systems. The system includes, for example: Chothia (Chothia et al. (1989) Nature 342:877-883, Al-Lazikani et al., "Standard conformations for the canonical structures of immunoglobulins", Journal based on the three-dimensional structure of antibodies and the topology of CDR loops of Molecular Biology, 273, 927-948 (1997)), Kabat based on antibody sequence variability (Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 4th edition, USDepartment of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health (1987) ), AbM (University of Bath), Contact (University College London), International ImmunoGeneTics database (IMGT) (World Wide Web imgt.cines.fr/), and North based on affinity propagation clustering using a large number of crystal structures CDR definition (North et al., "A New Clustering of Antibody CDR Loop Conformations", Journal of Molecular Biology, 406, 228-256 (2011)).

例如,使用Kabat和Chothia編號的CDR區域的不同定義範圍。 For example, the different definition ranges of CDR regions numbered by Kabat and Chothia are used.

Figure 110101453-A0101-12-0018-1
Figure 110101453-A0101-12-0018-1

CDR也可以基於與參考CDR序列(例如本發明示例性CDR之任一)具有相同的Kabat編號位置而確定。 The CDR can also be determined based on having the same Kabat numbering position as a reference CDR sequence (for example, any of the exemplary CDRs of the present invention).

除非另有說明,否則在本發明中,術語“CDR”或“CDR序列”涵蓋以上述任一種方式確定的CDR序列。 Unless otherwise specified, in the present invention, the term "CDR" or "CDR sequence" encompasses CDR sequences determined in any of the above-mentioned ways.

除非另有說明,否則在本發明中,當提及抗體可變區中的殘基位置(包括重鏈可變區殘基和輕鏈可變區殘基)時,是指根據Kabat編號系統(Kabat等人,Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,5th Ed.Public Health Service,National Institutes of Health,Bethesda,Md.(1991))的編號位置。 Unless otherwise specified, in the present invention, when referring to residue positions in the variable region of an antibody (including heavy chain variable region residues and light chain variable region residues), it refers to the Kabat numbering system ( Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md. (1991)).

在一個實施方案中,本發明抗體的CDR藉由North定義規則確定邊界,例如下文表1b和表1c所示。 In one embodiment, the CDR of the antibody of the present invention is bounded by North definition rules, for example, as shown in Table 1b and Table 1c below.

然而,應該注意,基於不同的指派系統獲得的同一抗體的可變區的CDR的邊界可能有所差異。即不同指派系統下定義的同一抗體可變區的CDR序列有所不同。因此,在涉及用本發明定義的具體CDR序列限定抗體時,該抗體的範圍還涵蓋了這樣的抗體,其可變區序列包含該具體CDR序列,但是由於應用了不同的方案(例如不同的指派系統規則或組合)而導致其所聲稱的CDR邊界與本發明所定義的具體CDR邊界不同。 However, it should be noted that the boundaries of the CDRs of the variable regions of the same antibody obtained based on different assignment systems may be different. That is, the CDR sequences of the variable regions of the same antibody defined under different assignment systems are different. Therefore, when it comes to defining an antibody with a specific CDR sequence defined in the present invention, the scope of the antibody also covers antibodies whose variable region sequence contains the specific CDR sequence, but due to the application of different schemes (such as different assignments). System rules or combinations) cause the claimed CDR boundary to be different from the specific CDR boundary defined in the present invention.

具有不同特異性(即,針對不同抗原的不同結合位點)的抗體具有不同的CDR。然而,儘管CDR在抗體與抗體之間是不同的,但是CDR內只有有限數量的胺基酸位置直接參與抗原結合。使用Kabat,Chothia,AbM、Contact和North方法中的至少兩種,可以確定最小重疊區域,從而提供用於抗原結合的“最小結合單位”。最小結合單位可以是CDR的一個子部分。正如本領域技術人員明瞭,藉由抗體的結構和蛋白折疊,可以確定CDR序列其餘部分的殘基。因此,本發明也考慮本文所給出的任何CDR的變體。例如,在一個CDR的變體中,最小結合單位的胺基酸殘基可以保 持不變,而根據Kabat或Chothia定義的其餘CDR殘基可以被保守胺基酸殘基替代。 Antibodies with different specificities (ie, different binding sites for different antigens) have different CDRs. However, although CDRs are different from antibody to antibody, there are only a limited number of amino acid positions within the CDR that directly participate in antigen binding. Using at least two of the Kabat, Chothia, AbM, Contact, and North methods, the minimum overlap area can be determined, thereby providing the "minimum binding unit" for antigen binding. The minimum binding unit can be a sub-portion of the CDR. As those skilled in the art know, the structure of the antibody and protein folding can determine the residues of the rest of the CDR sequence. Therefore, the present invention also considers any CDR variants given herein. For example, in a CDR variant, the amino acid residue of the smallest binding unit can preserve The remaining CDR residues defined by Kabat or Chothia can be replaced by conservative amino acid residues.

術語“抗體製劑”指一種製備物,該製備物處於允許作為活性成分的抗體的生物活性可以有效發揮的形式,並且不含有對於待施用該製劑的受試者而言具有不可接受毒性的其它組分。這類抗體製劑通常是無菌的。通常,抗體製劑中包含可藥用賦形劑。“可藥用”賦形劑是可以合理地施用至受試哺乳動物以便製劑中所用活性成分的有效劑量可以遞送至受試者的試劑。賦形劑的濃度與施用模式相適應,例如可以是注射可接受的。 The term "antibody preparation" refers to a preparation that is in a form that allows the biological activity of the antibody as an active ingredient to be effectively exhibited, and does not contain other groups that have unacceptable toxicity to the subject to which the preparation is to be administered. point. Such antibody preparations are usually sterile. Generally, pharmaceutically acceptable excipients are included in antibody preparations. A "pharmaceutically acceptable" excipient is an agent that can be reasonably administered to a tested mammal so that an effective dose of the active ingredient used in the formulation can be delivered to the subject. The concentration of the excipient is adapted to the mode of administration, for example, it may be acceptable for injection.

術語“抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體製劑”在本文中也簡稱為“本發明的抗體製劑”,意指包含抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體蛋白作為活性成分並包含可藥用賦形劑的製備物。將抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體蛋白與可藥用賦形劑組合後,作為活性成分的抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體蛋白適於治療性或預防性施與人類或非人類動物。本發明的抗體製劑可以例如製備成水性形式的液體製劑,例如,即用式預填裝注射器,或者製備成凍乾製劑,在即將使用前藉由溶解和/或懸浮於生理可接受的溶液中進行重構(即,複溶)。在一些實施方案中,抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體蛋白製劑是液體製劑形式。 The term "anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody preparation" is also referred to as "antibody preparation of the present invention" herein, meaning that it contains anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody protein as an active ingredient and contains pharmaceutically acceptable excipients. Preparation of the agent. After the anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody protein is combined with a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, the anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody protein as an active ingredient is suitable for therapeutic or preventive administration to human or non-human animals. The antibody preparation of the present invention can be prepared, for example, as a liquid preparation in an aqueous form, for example, a ready-to-use pre-filled syringe, or prepared as a lyophilized preparation, by dissolving and/or suspending in a physiologically acceptable solution immediately before use Perform reconstitution (ie, reconstitution). In some embodiments, the anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody protein preparation is in the form of a liquid preparation.

“穩定的”抗體製劑是製劑中的抗體在儲存於特定條件下之後保有可接受程度的物理穩定性和/或化學穩定性。儘管抗體製劑中所含的抗體在儲存特定時間之後可能不會100%維持其化學結構,但通常在儲存特定時間之後維持約90%、約95%、約96%、約97%、約98%或約99%的抗體結構或功能,則認為抗體製劑是“穩定的”。在一些具體的實施方案中,本發明的抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體蛋白製劑在製造、製備、運輸和長期儲存過程中表現出低至檢測不到的抗體聚集或降解或化學修飾,從而極少或 甚至是沒有抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體蛋白的生物活性損失,表現出高度穩定性。在一些實施方案中,本發明的抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體蛋白製劑在儲存後,基本上保留其物理和化學穩定性。較佳地,本發明液體製劑可以在室溫穩定至少6個月或在40℃±2℃儲存1個月,和/或在25℃±2℃穩定至少3個月,和/或在2-8℃穩定至少24個月。 A "stable" antibody preparation is when the antibody in the preparation retains an acceptable degree of physical and/or chemical stability after storage under specific conditions. Although the antibody contained in the antibody preparation may not maintain 100% of its chemical structure after storage for a specific time, it usually maintains about 90%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98% after storage for a specific time. Or about 99% of the structure or function of the antibody, the antibody preparation is considered "stable." In some specific embodiments, the anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody protein preparations of the present invention exhibit undetectable antibody aggregation or degradation or chemical modification during manufacturing, preparation, transportation and long-term storage, thereby Rarely or Even there is no loss of the biological activity of the anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody protein, showing a high degree of stability. In some embodiments, the anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody protein formulation of the present invention substantially retains its physical and chemical stability after storage. Preferably, the liquid formulation of the present invention can be stable at room temperature for at least 6 months or stored at 40°C±2°C for 1 month, and/or stable at 25°C±2°C for at least 3 months, and/or at 2- Stable at 8°C for at least 24 months.

本領域已知多種分析技術可以用於測定蛋白質的穩定性,參見例如Peptide and Protein Drug Delivery,247-301,Vincent Lee Ed.,Marcel Dekker,Inc.,New York,N.Y.,Pubs(1991)and Jones,A.Adv.Drug Delivery Rev.10:29-90(1993)。可以在選定的溫度和選定的儲存時間測量穩定性。例如,可以基於預期的製劑貨架期來選擇儲存時間。備選地,可以使用加速穩定性試驗。在一些實施方案中,藉由對抗體製劑進行各種脅迫測試來進行穩定性測試。這些測試可以代表調配的抗體製劑在製造、儲存或運輸期間可能遭遇到的極端條件,也可以代表在非製造、儲存或運輸期間可能使抗體製劑中的抗體的不穩定性加速的條件。例如,可以將經調配的抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體蛋白製劑充填至玻璃小瓶中以檢驗在高溫脅迫下的抗體穩定性。 A variety of analytical techniques known in the art can be used to determine the stability of proteins, see, for example, Peptide and Protein Drug Delivery, 247-301, Vincent Lee Ed., Marcel Dekker, Inc., New York, NY, Pubs (1991) and Jones , A. Adv. Drug Delivery Rev. 10: 29-90 (1993). The stability can be measured at a selected temperature and selected storage time. For example, the storage time can be selected based on the expected shelf life of the formulation. Alternatively, an accelerated stability test can be used. In some embodiments, the stability test is performed by performing various stress tests on the antibody preparation. These tests can represent extreme conditions that may be encountered during manufacture, storage, or transportation of the formulated antibody preparation, or conditions that may accelerate the instability of the antibody in the antibody preparation during non-manufacture, storage, or transportation. For example, the formulated anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody protein preparation can be filled into a glass vial to test the antibody stability under high temperature stress.

經一段儲存時間後,製劑不顯示聚集、沉澱、混濁和/或變性;或顯示非常少的聚集、沉澱、混濁和/或變性,則可以認為抗體在製劑中“保持其物理穩定性”。由於製劑中抗體的聚集可以潛在地導致患者增加的免疫反應,從而導致安全性問題。因此,需要使在製劑中的抗體聚集最小化或防止聚集。光散射法可以用於測定製劑中的可見聚集物。SEC可以用於測定製劑中的可溶性聚集物。此外,可以藉由目視檢查製劑的外觀、顏色和/或澄清度、或者藉由OD350nm法檢測製劑的濁度、或者藉由非還原型CE-SDS法測定製劑的純度,來指示製劑的穩定性。在一個實施方案中, 藉由測定在特定溫度下儲存特定時間之後製劑中的抗體單體的百分比來測量製劑的穩定性,其中製劑中的抗體單體的百分比越高,則製劑的穩定性越高。 After a period of storage time, the preparation does not show aggregation, precipitation, turbidity and/or denaturation; or shows very little aggregation, precipitation, turbidity and/or denaturation, it can be considered that the antibody "maintains its physical stability" in the preparation. The accumulation of antibodies in the preparation can potentially lead to an increased immune response in patients, leading to safety issues. Therefore, there is a need to minimize or prevent aggregation of the antibody in the formulation. The light scattering method can be used to determine the visible aggregates in the formulation. SEC can be used to determine soluble aggregates in the formulation. In addition, the stability of the preparation can be indicated by visually inspecting the appearance, color and/or clarity of the preparation, or by detecting the turbidity of the preparation by the OD 350nm method, or by measuring the purity of the preparation by the non-reducing CE-SDS method sex.

In some embodiments, storage at a specific temperature for at least 2 weeks, at least 28 days, at least 1 month, at least 2 months, at least 3 months, at least 4 months, at least 5 months, at least 6 months, at least 7 months After months, at least 8 months, at least 9 months, at least 10 months, at least 11 months, at least 12 months, at least 18 months, at least 24 months or more, an acceptable degree of physical stability indicates At least about 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% of the anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody protein monomer.

經一段儲存時間後,如果製劑中的抗體不顯示顯著的化學改變,則可以認為抗體在製劑中“保持其化學穩定性”。大多數化學不穩定性源自於形成了抗體的共價修飾形式(例如,抗體的電荷變異體)。例如由天冬 胺酸異構化、N和C末端修飾,可以形成鹼性變異體;由脫醯胺化、唾液酸化和糖化,可以產生酸性變異體。化學穩定性可以藉由檢測和/或定量抗體的化學改變形式來評估。例如,可以藉由陽離子交換色譜(CEX)或成像毛細管等電聚焦電泳(iCIEF)檢測製劑中抗體的電荷變異體。在一個實施方案中,藉由測定在特定溫度下儲存特定時間之後製劑中抗體的電荷變異體百分比變化值來測量製劑的穩定性,其中該變化值越小,則製劑的穩定性越高。 After a period of storage, if the antibody in the preparation does not show a significant chemical change, it can be considered that the antibody "maintains its chemical stability" in the preparation. Most chemical instabilities result from the formation of covalently modified forms of antibodies (for example, charge variants of antibodies). For example by Tiandong Amino acid isomerization, N- and C-terminal modification can form basic variants; deamidation, sialylation and saccharification can produce acidic variants. Chemical stability can be assessed by detecting and/or quantifying the chemically modified form of the antibody. For example, the charge variant of the antibody in the preparation can be detected by cation exchange chromatography (CEX) or imaging capillary isoelectric focusing electrophoresis (iCIEF). In one embodiment, the stability of the formulation is measured by determining the percentage change in the charge variant of the antibody in the formulation after storage at a specific temperature for a specific time, wherein the smaller the change, the higher the stability of the formulation.

Each heavy chain consists of an N-terminal HCVR and a heavy chain constant region ("HCCR"). Each light chain consists of an N-terminal LCVR and a light chain constant region ("LCCR").

在一個較佳的實施方案中,本發明抗體製劑中的抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體是PCT申請號PCT/US2018/041205(國際申請日:2018年7月9日)中公開的抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體,藉由引用將全部內容併入本文。該抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體的序列延用該專利申請中的序列號,沒有重新進行編號。較佳地,該抗體選自:PD-1/PD-L1雙特異性Ab v13844、Ab v3.0或Ab v3.2。更較佳地,該抗體為PD-1/PD-L1雙特異性Ab v3.2。在一個實施方案中,該抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體是由例如293細胞或CHO細胞等重組表達產生並經純化的抗體,其含有衍生自人IgG1的Fc部分變體。在本發明液體製劑中的該抗體表現出顯著的抗腫瘤活性。例如,在植入NCI- H292腫瘤細胞與PBMC的混合物的來自Jackson Laboratories的NSG小鼠中,施用本發明的抗體例如PD-1/PD-L1雙特異性Ab(v13844、v3.0或v3.2)以10mg/kg qw進行治療,完全緩解(CR)分別為7/8、5/8及5/8,比組合療法(親代PD-L1抗體+親代PD-1抗體)(CR為2/8)更有效。 In a preferred embodiment, the anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody in the antibody preparation of the present invention is the anti-PD disclosed in PCT Application No. PCT/US2018/041205 (International Filing Date: July 9, 2018). -1/PD-L1 antibody, the entire content is incorporated herein by reference. The sequence of the anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody continued to use the serial number in the patent application without renumbering. Preferably, the antibody is selected from: PD-1/PD-L1 bispecific Ab v13844, Ab v3.0 or Ab v3.2. More preferably, the antibody is PD-1/PD-L1 bispecific Ab v3.2. In one embodiment, the anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody is a purified antibody produced by recombinant expression such as 293 cells or CHO cells, which contains a variant of the Fc portion derived from human IgG1. The antibody in the liquid preparation of the present invention exhibits significant anti-tumor activity. For example, in the implantation of NCI- In NSG mice from Jackson Laboratories with a mixture of H292 tumor cells and PBMC, the antibody of the present invention such as PD-1/PD-L1 bispecific Ab (v13844, v3.0 or v3.2) was administered at 10 mg/kg qw After treatment, complete remission (CR) was 7/8, 5/8, and 5/8, respectively, which was more effective than combination therapy (parental PD-L1 antibody + parental PD-1 antibody) (CR 2/8).

本發明的抗體是異二聚體,因為抗體的每個臂由於形成抗體的兩條不同的重鏈和兩條不同的輕鏈而表現出與其同源抗原的選擇性單價結合。在本發明中,抗體的一個臂結合人PD-L1(SEQ ID NO:1),另一個臂結合人PD-1(SEQ ID NO:2)。這些多肽鏈的CH2和/或CH3結構域在序列上不需要相同,並且有利地被修飾以促進兩條多肽鏈之間的複合。例如,可以將胺基酸取代(較佳用包含形成“旋鈕”的龐大側基的胺基酸取代,例如色胺酸)引入CH2或CH3結構域,使得空間干擾將阻止與類似突變的相互作用。結構域將強制突變結構域與已經設計了互補或調節突變的結構域配對,即“空穴”(例如,用甘胺酸取代)。可以將這些突變組工程化為包含形成Fc區的CH2-CH3結構域的任何多肽對。有利於異二聚化而不是同型二聚化的蛋白質工程方法是本領域熟知的,特別是關於免疫球蛋白樣分子的工程化(參見例如WO96/27011,WO 98/050431,EP 1870459,WO 2007/110205,WO 2007/147901,WO 2009/089004,WO 2010/129304,WO 2011/90754,WO 2011/143545,WO2012/058768,WO2013/157954,WO2013/096291,EP1870459A1,以及Ridgway等。(1996)“'Knobs-Into-Holes'工程抗體CH3重鏈結構域異二聚化,“蛋白質工程9:617-621,Atwell等人(1997)”使用噬菌體展示文庫改造Homodimer的結構域的穩定的異二聚體,“J.Mol.Biol.270:26-35,和Xie等人(2005)“雙特異性抗體的新形式:高效異源二聚化,表達和腫瘤細胞裂解”,J.Immunol.Methods 296:95-101)。通常,在本領域已知的方法中,CH3 第一重鏈的結構域和第二重鏈的CH3結構域均以互補的方式工程化,使得包含一個工程化的CH3結構域的重鏈不再能夠與另一個相同結構的重鏈同源二聚體化(例如CH3-工程化的第一條重鏈不能再與另一條CH3工程化的第一條重鏈同源二聚體化;而CH3-工程化的第二條重鏈不能再與另一條CH3-工程化的第二條重鏈同源二聚體化。由此迫使包含一個工程化CH3結構域的重鏈與包含CH3結構域的另一條重鏈異二聚化,該CH3結構域以互補方式工程化。對於本發明的該實施方案,第一重鏈的CH3結構域和第二重鏈的CH3結構域藉由胺基酸取代以互補方式工程化,使得第一重鏈和第二重鏈被迫異二聚化。而第一條重鏈和第二條重鏈不能再同源二聚化(例如出於空間原因)。 The antibody of the present invention is a heterodimer because each arm of the antibody exhibits selective monovalent binding to its homologous antigen due to two different heavy chains and two different light chains that form the antibody. In the present invention, one arm of the antibody binds human PD-L1 (SEQ ID NO: 1), and the other arm binds human PD-1 (SEQ ID NO: 2). The CH2 and/or CH3 domains of these polypeptide chains do not need to be identical in sequence, and are advantageously modified to promote the complexation between the two polypeptide chains. For example, amino acid substitutions (preferably with amino acids containing bulky side groups forming the "knob", such as tryptophan) can be introduced into the CH2 or CH3 domain, so that steric interference will prevent interaction with similar mutations . The domain will force the mutation domain to pair with the domain for which complementary or regulatory mutations have been designed, that is, "holes" (for example, substitution with glycine). These mutant sets can be engineered into any polypeptide pair comprising the CH2-CH3 domain that forms the Fc region. Protein engineering methods that favor heterodimerization rather than homodimerization are well known in the art, especially regarding the engineering of immunoglobulin-like molecules (see, for example, WO96/27011, WO 98/050431, EP 1870459, WO 2007 /110205, WO 2007/147901, WO 2009/089004, WO 2010/129304, WO 2011/90754, WO 2011/143545, WO2012/058768, WO2013/157954, WO2013/096291, EP1870459A1, and Ridgway et al. (1996)" 'Knobs-Into-Holes' engineered antibody CH3 heavy chain domain heterodimerization, "Protein Engineering 9: 617-621, Atwell et al. (1997)" Use phage display library to transform the stable heterodimerization of the homodimer domain Biol. 270: 26-35, and Xie et al. (2005) "A new form of bispecific antibodies: high-efficiency heterodimerization, expression and tumor cell lysis", J. Immunol. Methods 296: 95-101). Generally, in methods known in the art, CH3 The domain of the first heavy chain and the CH3 domain of the second heavy chain are both engineered in a complementary manner, so that the heavy chain containing one engineered CH3 domain can no longer be homologous to another heavy chain of the same structure. Polymerization (for example, the first heavy chain of CH3-engineering can no longer be homodimerized with the first heavy chain of another CH3 engineering; and the second heavy chain of CH3-engineering can no longer be homodimerized with another CH3-engineered heavy chain. Another CH3-engineered second heavy chain is homodimerized. This forces the heavy chain containing one engineered CH3 domain to heterodimerize with the other heavy chain containing CH3 domain, and the CH3 structure The domains are engineered in a complementary manner. For this embodiment of the invention, the CH3 domain of the first heavy chain and the CH3 domain of the second heavy chain are engineered in a complementary manner by amino acid substitution, so that the first heavy chain and The second heavy chain is forced to heterodimerize, and the first heavy chain and the second heavy chain can no longer homodimerize (for example for spatial reasons).

支持本領域已知的用於支持重鏈異二聚化的不同方法,作為在根據本發明的雙特異性抗體中使用的不同替代方案。在本發明的一些實施方案中,突變摻入CH1和CH3區內的重鏈序列和輕鏈恆定區內的輕鏈序列中。CH1和LC突變有利於必需的輕鏈和重鏈對的天然配對並且不利於輕鏈錯配。使CH3突變有利於兩個不同重鏈的異二聚體配對並且不利於同型二聚體的形成。 The different methods known in the art for supporting heavy chain heterodimerization are supported as different alternatives used in the bispecific antibodies according to the present invention. In some embodiments of the invention, mutations are incorporated into the heavy chain sequence in the CH1 and CH3 regions and the light chain sequence in the light chain constant region. CH1 and LC mutations facilitate the natural pairing of the necessary light and heavy chain pairs and are not conducive to light chain mismatches. Mutation of CH3 is conducive to the pairing of heterodimers of two different heavy chains and is not conducive to the formation of homodimers.

在一些實施方案中,本發明的抗體含有衍生自人IgG1的Fc部分變體。眾所周知,IgG1與Fc-γ受體家族(FcγR)以及C1q結合。與這些受體的相互作用可以誘導抗體依賴性細胞毒性(ADCC)和補體依賴性細胞毒性(CDC)。因此,對於本發明的抗體,某些胺基酸取代被引入人IgG1 Fc區以消除免疫效應子功能。抗體重鏈的CH2區域中的突變可以包括EU編號中的位置234,235和265,以減少或消除免疫效應子功能。 In some embodiments, the antibodies of the invention contain variants of the Fc portion derived from human IgG1. It is well known that IgG1 binds to the Fc-γ receptor family (FcγR) and C1q. Interactions with these receptors can induce antibody-dependent cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC). Therefore, for the antibodies of the present invention, certain amino acid substitutions are introduced into the Fc region of human IgG1 to eliminate immune effector functions. Mutations in the CH2 region of the antibody heavy chain can include positions 234, 235, and 265 in the EU numbering to reduce or eliminate immune effector functions.

藉由將編碼HCVR的DNA可操作地連接到編碼重鏈恆定區或其變體的另一DNA分子,可以將編碼HCVR區的分離的DNA轉化 為全長重鏈基因。人類以及其他哺乳動物重鏈恆定區基因的序列是本領域已知的。包含這些區域的DNA片段可以例如藉由標準PCR擴增獲得。較佳地,對於本發明的抗體,重鏈的重鏈恆定區是人IgG1的變體。 By operably linking the DNA encoding HCVR to another DNA molecule encoding the heavy chain constant region or a variant thereof, the isolated DNA encoding the HCVR region can be transformed It is a full-length heavy chain gene. The sequences of human and other mammalian heavy chain constant region genes are known in the art. DNA fragments containing these regions can be obtained, for example, by standard PCR amplification. Preferably, for the antibody of the present invention, the heavy chain constant region of the heavy chain is a variant of human IgG1.

藉由將編碼LCVR的DNA可操作地連接到編碼輕鏈恆定區或其變體的另一DNA分子,可以將編碼LCVR區的分離的DNA轉化為全長輕鏈基因。人類以及其他哺乳動物輕鏈恆定區基因的序列是本領域已知的。包含這些區域的DNA片段可藉由標準PCR擴增獲得。輕鏈恆定區可以是κ或λ恆定區。較佳地,對於本發明的抗體,抗體的抗PD-L1部分的輕鏈恆定區是λ輕鏈的變體,並且抗體的抗PD-1部分的輕鏈恆定區是κ輕鏈的變體。 By operably linking the DNA encoding the LCVR to another DNA molecule encoding the light chain constant region or a variant thereof, the isolated DNA encoding the LCVR region can be converted into a full-length light chain gene. The sequences of human and other mammalian light chain constant region genes are known in the art. DNA fragments containing these regions can be obtained by standard PCR amplification. The light chain constant region can be a kappa or lambda constant region. Preferably, for the antibody of the present invention, the light chain constant region of the anti-PD-L1 portion of the antibody is a variant of the lambda light chain, and the light chain constant region of the anti-PD-1 portion of the antibody is a variant of the kappa light chain .

II.製劑的製備II. Preparation of the formulation

本發明提供了包含抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體蛋白的穩定製劑。在本發明製劑中使用的抗PD-1/PD-L1抗體蛋白可以使用本領域已知的用於生產抗體的技術進行製備。例如,可以重組製備抗體。在一些實施方案中,本發明的抗體可以在CHO,NSO,HEK293或COS細胞中製備。較佳地,本發明的抗體可以在CHO或HEK293細胞中製備。可借由熟知方法將含有所關注多核苷酸序列(例如編碼抗體的多肽的多核苷酸及表達控制序列)的載體轉移至宿主細胞中,該方法根據宿主細胞類型而有所變化。 The present invention provides a stable formulation containing anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody protein. The anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody protein used in the formulation of the present invention can be prepared using techniques known in the art for antibody production. For example, antibodies can be produced recombinantly. In some embodiments, the antibodies of the present invention can be produced in CHO, NSO, HEK293 or COS cells. Preferably, the antibody of the present invention can be prepared in CHO or HEK293 cells. The vector containing the polynucleotide sequence of interest (for example, the polynucleotide encoding the polypeptide of the antibody and the expression control sequence) can be transferred to the host cell by a well-known method, and the method varies according to the type of the host cell.

抗體作為藥物的活性成分的應用現在已經很廣泛。用於將治療性抗體純化至藥用級的技術是本領域公知的。例如,Tugcu等(Maximizing productivity of chromatography steps for purification of monoclonal antibodies,Biotechnology and Bioengineering 99(2008)599-613.)描述在蛋白A捕獲步驟後使用離子交換色譜(陰離子IEX和/或陽離子CEX色譜)的單株抗體三管柱純化方法。Kelley等(Weak partitioning chromatography for anion exchange purification of monoclonal antibodies,Biotechnology and Bioengineering 101(2008)553-566)描述了兩管柱純化法,其中在蛋白A親和色譜後使用弱分配陰離子交換樹脂。 The application of antibodies as active ingredients of medicines is now widespread. Techniques for purifying therapeutic antibodies to pharmaceutical grade are well known in the art. For example, Tugcu et al. (Maximizing productivity of chromatography steps for purification of monoclonal antibodies, Biotechnology and Bioengineering 99 (2008) 599-613.) describe the use of ion exchange chromatography (anion IEX and/or cation CEX chromatography) after the protein A capture step Monoclonal antibody three-column purification method. Kelley et al. (Weak partitioning chromatography for anion exchange purification of monoclonal antibodies, Biotechnology and Bioengineering 101 (2008) 553-566) describe a two-column purification method in which a weak partitioning anion exchange resin is used after protein A affinity chromatography.

一般,重組產生的單株抗體可以利用常規的純化方法純化,以提供具有足夠的可重複性和適度純度的藥物物質用於抗體製劑的配製。例如,在抗體從重組表達細胞分泌至培養基中後,可以使用商業可得的蛋白濃縮過濾器例如Amicon的超濾裝置,濃縮來自該表達系統的上清液。之後,可以使用例如色譜、透析和親和純化等方式進行抗體的純化。蛋白A適應於作為親和配體用於純化IgG1、IgG2和IgG4型抗體。也可以使用其它抗體純化方法,例如離子交換色譜。在獲得足夠純度的抗體後,可以按照本領域已知的方法,製備包含抗體的製劑。 Generally, recombinantly produced monoclonal antibodies can be purified by conventional purification methods to provide pharmaceutical substances with sufficient reproducibility and moderate purity for the preparation of antibody preparations. For example, after the antibody is secreted from the recombinant expression cell into the culture medium, a commercially available protein concentration filter such as Amicon's ultrafiltration device can be used to concentrate the supernatant from the expression system. After that, the antibody can be purified using methods such as chromatography, dialysis, and affinity purification. Protein A is suitable as an affinity ligand for the purification of IgG1, IgG2 and IgG4 type antibodies. Other antibody purification methods, such as ion exchange chromatography, can also be used. After obtaining the antibody of sufficient purity, a preparation containing the antibody can be prepared according to methods known in the art.

例如,可以採用如下步驟進行製備:(1)在發酵結束後將發酵液離心澄清去除細胞等雜質以獲得上清;(2)使用親和層析(例如對IgG1、IgG2和IgG4型抗體具有特異親和力的蛋白A管柱)捕獲抗體;(3)進行病毒滅活;(4)精製純化(一般可以採用CEX陽離子交換層析),以去除蛋白中的雜質;(4)病毒過濾(使病毒滴度降低例如4 log10以上);(5)超濾/滲濾(可以用於將蛋白置換於利於其穩定的製劑緩衝液中並濃縮至合適的濃度供注射用)。參見例如,B.Minow,P.Rogge,K.Thompson,BioProcess International,Vol.10,No.6,2012,pp.48-57。 For example, the following steps can be used for preparation: (1) After fermentation, the fermentation broth is centrifuged to clarify impurities such as cells to obtain the supernatant; (2) affinity chromatography (for example, specific affinity for IgG1, IgG2, and IgG4 antibodies) Protein A column) to capture antibodies; (3) virus inactivation; (4) purification and purification (usually CEX cation exchange chromatography can be used) to remove impurities in the protein; (4) virus filtration (to make the virus titer To reduce, for example, 4 log10 or more); (5) Ultrafiltration/diafiltration (which can be used to replace the protein in a formulation buffer that is conducive to its stability and concentrate it to a suitable concentration for injection). See, for example, B. Minow, P. Rogge, K. Thompson, BioProcess International, Vol. 10, No. 6, 2012, pp. 48-57.

III.製劑的分析方法III. Analytical method of preparation

在抗體製劑的儲存過程中,抗體可能會發生聚集、降解或化學修飾,導致抗體異質性(包括大小異質性和電荷異質性)以及聚集物和片段等,從而影響抗體製劑的質量。因此,有必要進行抗體製劑穩定性的監測。 During the storage of antibody preparations, antibodies may undergo aggregation, degradation or chemical modification, resulting in antibody heterogeneity (including size heterogeneity and charge heterogeneity), aggregates and fragments, etc., thereby affecting the quality of antibody preparations. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the stability of antibody preparations.

在本領域中已知多種方法可以用於檢測抗體製劑的穩定性。例如,可以藉由還原型CE-SDS、非還原型CE-SDS和SEC-HPLC等方法,分析抗體製劑的純度和評估抗體的聚集水平;可以藉由毛細管等電聚焦電泳(cIEF)、成像毛細管等電聚焦電泳(iCIEF)和離子交換色譜(IEX)等,分析抗體製劑中的電荷變異體。此外,可以藉由目視檢測製劑外觀,快速地判斷製劑的穩定性。也可以使用OD350nm法檢測製劑的濁度改變,該方法可以給出有關可溶性和不溶性聚集物量的信息。此外,可以使用紫外分光光度法(UV法)檢測製劑中的蛋白質含量變化。 Various methods are known in the art that can be used to test the stability of antibody preparations. For example, methods such as reduced CE-SDS, non-reduced CE-SDS, and SEC-HPLC can be used to analyze the purity of antibody preparations and assess the level of antibody aggregation; can be achieved by capillary isoelectric focusing (cIEF), imaging capillary Isoelectric focusing electrophoresis (iCIEF) and ion exchange chromatography (IEX), etc., analyze charge variants in antibody preparations. In addition, the stability of the preparation can be quickly judged by visually inspecting the appearance of the preparation. The OD 350nm method can also be used to detect changes in the turbidity of the preparation, which can give information about the amount of soluble and insoluble aggregates. In addition, ultraviolet spectrophotometry (UV method) can be used to detect changes in protein content in the preparation.

非還原型CE-SDS法是一種以毛細管為分離通道進行的抗體純度測定方法。在CE-SDS中,蛋白遷移由SDS結合引起的表面電荷來驅動,而該表面電荷與蛋白質的分子量成正比。由於所有的SDS-蛋白質複合物都具有相似的質量-電荷比,故可以在毛細管的分子篩凝膠基質中,實現基於分子的大小或流體動力學半徑的電泳分離。該方法已經被廣泛地用於監測變性的完整抗體的純度。一般,在非還原型CE-SDS法中,供試樣品與SDS樣品緩衝液和碘乙醯胺混合。之後,混合物可以於68-72℃孵育約10-15分鐘,冷卻至室溫後離心的上清液用於分析。採用紫外檢測器檢測蛋白的遷移,獲得電泳譜圖。抗體製劑純度可以計算為IgG主峰的峰面積占所有峰面積之和的百分比。關於CE-SDS法的進一步描述,可以參見例如Richard R.等,Application of CE SDS gel in development of biopharmaceutical antibody-based products,Electrophoresis,2008,29,3612-3620。 The non-reduced CE-SDS method is a method of antibody purity determination using capillary as a separation channel. In CE-SDS, protein migration is driven by the surface charge caused by SDS binding, and the surface charge is proportional to the molecular weight of the protein. Since all SDS-protein complexes have similar mass-to-charge ratios, electrophoretic separation based on molecular size or hydrodynamic radius can be achieved in the molecular sieve gel matrix of the capillary. This method has been widely used to monitor the purity of denatured intact antibodies. Generally, in the non-reducing CE-SDS method, the test sample is mixed with SDS sample buffer and iodoacetamide. After that, the mixture can be incubated at 68-72°C for about 10-15 minutes, and the supernatant centrifuged after cooling to room temperature is used for analysis. A UV detector is used to detect the migration of the protein and obtain an electrophoresis spectrum. The purity of the antibody preparation can be calculated as the percentage of the peak area of the main IgG peak to the sum of all peak areas. For a further description of the CE-SDS method, see, for example, Richard R. et al., Application of CE SDS gel in development of biopharmaceutical antibody-based products, Electrophoresis, 2008, 29, 3612-3620.

尺寸排阻高效液相色譜法,即SEC-HPLC法,是用於抗體標準和質控的另一重要方法。該方法主要依據分子的尺寸大小或流體動力學半徑差異來進行分子的分離。藉由SEC-HPLC,抗體可以分離出三種主要形式:高分子量形式(HMMS)、主峰(主要是抗體單體)、和低分子量形式(LMMS)。抗體純度可以計算為色譜圖上主峰面積占所有峰面積之和的百分比。藉由SEC-HPLC法,可以測量製劑產品中抗體單體的百分數,給出可溶性聚集物和剪切物的含量信息。關於SEC-HPLC法的進一步描述,可以參見例如,J.Pharm.Scien.,83:1645-1650,(1994);Pharm.Res.,11:485(1994);J.Pharm.Bio.Anal.,15:1928(1997);J.Pharm.Bio.Anal.,14:1133-1140(1986)。此外,也可以參見例如,R.Yang等,High resolution separation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies by size exclusion ultra-high performance liquid chromatography(SE-UHPLC),Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis(2015),http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jpba.2015.02.032;和Alexandre Goyon等,Protocols for the analytical characterization of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies.I-Non-denaturing chromatographic techniques,Journal of Chromatography,http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jchromb.2017.05.010。 Size exclusion high performance liquid chromatography, or SEC-HPLC, is another important method for antibody standards and quality control. This method is mainly based on the size of the molecule or the difference in hydrodynamic radius to separate the molecules. By SEC-HPLC, antibodies can be separated into three main forms: high molecular weight form (HMMS), main peak (mainly antibody monomer), and low molecular weight form (LMMS). Antibody purity can be calculated as the percentage of the main peak area on the chromatogram to the sum of all peak areas. With the SEC-HPLC method, the percentage of antibody monomers in the preparation product can be measured, and information about the content of soluble aggregates and shears can be given. For a further description of the SEC-HPLC method, see, for example, J. Pharm. Scien., 83: 1645-1650, (1994); Pharm. Res., 11: 485 (1994); J. Pharm. Bio. Anal. , 15: 1928 (1997); J. Pharm. Bio. Anal., 14: 1133-1140 (1986). In addition, see, for example, R. Yang et al., High resolution separation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies by size exclusion ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (SE-UHPLC), Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis (2015), http://dx. doi.org/10.1016/j.jpba.2015.02.032; and Alexandre Goyon et al., Protocols for the analytical characterization of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies.

成像毛細管等電聚焦電泳(iCIEF)可以用於分析抗體的電荷異質性。該方法可以提供電荷變異體的定量分佈情況。iCIEF基於分子在pH梯度中的電荷差異(表觀pI值)來實現分子分離的目的。在iCIEF中,分離管柱通常是短毛細管(例如,5cm長,100μm內徑的二氧化矽毛細管),蛋白質在高電壓下在毛細管管柱中聚焦,並藉由在280nM操作的全管柱成 像檢測系統對聚焦進行實時在線監測。該技術的一個優點是,可以藉由該全管柱檢測系統同時記錄抗體樣品的各種電荷變異體。一般而言,在icIEF中,將樣品與尿素和icIEF緩衝液混合,其中該緩衝液含有甲基纖維素、pI分子量標準和兩性電解質。然後,可以在iCIEF分析儀例如iCE280分析儀(Protein Simple,Santa Clara,CA)上,使用iCIEF管柱例如ProtionSimple組裝的iCIEF管柱,在樣品聚焦一定時間後,測定280nm的吸光度,獲得聚焦抗體電荷變異體的譜圖。在iCEIF譜圖中,在主峰(即主成分)之前沖提的蛋白相關峰被分類為酸性組分;相對地,在主峰之後沖提的蛋白相關峰被分類為鹼性組分。主成分、酸性組分和鹼性組分的相對量可以表示為占總峰面積的百分數。關於iCIEF的進一步描述,可以參見例如,Salas-Solano O等,Robustness of iCIEF methodology for the analysis of monoclonal antibodies:an interlaboratory study,J Sep Sci.2012 Nov;35(22):3124-9.doi:10.1002/jssc.201200633.Epub 2012 Oct 15;和Dada OO等,Characterization of acidic and basic variants of IgG1 therapeutic monoclonal antibodies based on non-denaturing IEF fractionation,Electrophoresis.2015 Nov;36(21-22):2695-2702.doi:10.1002/elps.201500219.Epub 2015 Sep 18. Imaging capillary isoelectric focusing electrophoresis (iCIEF) can be used to analyze the charge heterogeneity of antibodies. This method can provide a quantitative distribution of charge variants. iCIEF achieves molecular separation based on the charge difference (apparent pI value) of molecules in the pH gradient. In iCIEF, the separation column is usually a short capillary (for example, a silica capillary with a length of 5 cm and an inner diameter of 100 μm). The protein is focused in the capillary column at a high voltage and formed by a full-tube column operating at 280 nM. The image detection system performs real-time online monitoring of the focus. One advantage of this technology is that the full-column detection system can simultaneously record various charge variants of antibody samples. Generally speaking, in icIEF, the sample is mixed with urea and icIEF buffer, where the buffer contains methyl cellulose, pi molecular weight standards and amphoteric electrolytes. Then, you can use an iCIEF column such as an iCIEF column assembled by ProtionSimple on an iCIEF analyzer such as iCE280 analyzer (Protein Simple, Santa Clara, CA). After the sample is focused for a certain period of time, the absorbance at 280 nm is measured to obtain the focused antibody charge. Spectra of variants. In the iCEIF spectrum, the protein-related peaks extracted before the main peak (that is, the principal component) are classified as acidic components; in contrast, the protein-related peaks extracted after the main peak are classified as basic components. The relative amounts of the main components, acidic components, and basic components can be expressed as a percentage of the total peak area. For a further description of iCIEF, see, for example, Salas-Solano O et al., Robustness of iCIEF methodology for the analysis of monoclonal antibodies: an interlaboratory study, J Sep Sci. 2012 Nov; 35(22): 3124-9. doi: 10.1002 /jssc.201200633.Epub 2012 Oct 15; and Dada OO, etc., Characterization of acidic and basic variants of IgG1 therapeutic monoclonal antibodies based on non-denaturing IEF fractionation, Electrophoresis. 2015 Nov; 36(21-22): 2695-2702. doi: 10.1002/elps.201500219.Epub 2015 Sep 18.

也可以藉由陽離子交換高效液相色譜法(CEX-HPLC)測定抗體製劑中抗體的電荷變異體。在該測定法中,以比主峰的保留時間更早從CEX-HPLC管柱沖提出的峰被標記為“酸性峰”,而那些以比主峰的保留時間更晚從CEX-HPLC管柱沖提出的峰被標記為“鹼性峰”。 The charge variant of the antibody in the antibody preparation can also be determined by cation exchange high performance liquid chromatography (CEX-HPLC). In this assay, the peaks extracted from the CEX-HPLC column with a retention time earlier than the main peak are marked as "acidic peaks", and those extracted from the CEX-HPLC column with a retention time later than the main peak The peaks are labeled as "basic peaks".
