本申请要求2021年12月31日向中国国家知识产权局提交的,专利申请号为202111668463.1,发明名称为《一种GPRC5D抗体及其应用》的中国专利申请的优先权。上述在先申请的全文通过引用的方式并入本申请中。
技术领域
本申请涉及生物医药领域,具体而言,涉及一种GPRC5D抗体及其应用。
背景技术
多发性骨髓瘤(Multiple myeloma,MM)是一种浆细胞恶性肿瘤,其特征是骨髓中的浆细胞像肿瘤细胞一样无限制地增生,并伴有单克隆免疫球蛋白分泌,从而引起多发性溶骨性损害、高钙血症、贫血、肾脏损害、反复感染等一系列临床表现。造血干细胞移植和以免疫调节剂及蛋白酶抑制剂等联合治疗,显著改善预后。近年来CAR T疗法在多发性骨髓瘤治疗中取得突破性进展,尤其以B细胞成熟抗原(BCMA)为靶点的CAR T在治疗多发性骨髓瘤上显示出了积极的临床结果。但对于BCMA阴性或BCMA低表达的多发性骨髓瘤患者来说,在接受靶向BCMA CAR-T细胞治疗后仍会复发,因此,多发性骨髓瘤治疗还需寻找其他更具潜力的新靶点。
GPRC5D是G蛋白偶联受体C5家族亚型D,属于一种孤儿受体,为7次跨膜蛋白。GPRC5D是BCMA之后一个新的多发性骨髓瘤靶点,组织表达谱研究发现GPRC5D特异性地在多发性骨髓瘤的浆细胞高表达,而在正常组织中低表达,仅限于具免疫赦免性的毛囊区域。并且GPRC5D与BCMA的表达并不重合。对于BCMA丢失的肿瘤复发模型中,GPRC5D CAR-T仍有治疗效果,克服肿瘤逃逸。理论上针对GPRC5D和BCMA的双靶向也可以覆盖更多人群,并带来更好的临床应答。因此,开发GPRC5D特异性抗体及相关的生物制品具有巨大潜在的临床需求。

发明的详细描述
术语定义和说明
除非本申请另外定义,与本申请相关的科学和技术术语应具有本领域普通技术人员所理解的含义。
此外,除非本文另有说明,本文单数形式的术语应包括复数形式,复数形式的术语应包括单数形式。更具体地,如在本说明书和所附权利要求中所使用的,除非另外明确指出,否则单数形式“一种”和“这种”包括复数指示物。
本文术语“包括”、“包含”和“具有”之间可互换使用,旨在表示方案的包含性,意味着所述方案可存在除所列出的元素之外的其他元素。同时应当理解,在本文中使用“包括”、“包含”和“具有”描述,也提供“由……组成”方案。
本文术语“和/或”在本文使用时,包括“和”、“或”和“由所属术语链接的要素的全部或任何其他组合”的含义。
本文术语GPRC5D是指G蛋白偶联受体C5家族亚型D,属于一种孤儿受体,为7次跨膜蛋白。GPRC5D在原代多发性骨髓瘤细胞表面高表达,而在正常组织的表达仅限于毛囊区域。有研究表明65%的多发性骨髓瘤患者GPRC5D有超过50%的表达阈值,凭借这一特点,GPRC5D成为了治疗MM的潜在靶标。
本文术语“特异性结合”是指抗原结合分子(例如抗体)通常以高亲和力特异性结合抗原和实质上相同的抗原,但不以高亲和力结合不相关抗原。可采用本领域周知的方法测量平衡解离常数KD,如表面等离子共振(例如Biacore)或平衡透析法测定。
本文术语“抗原结合分子”按最广义使用,是指特异性结合抗原的分子。示例性地,抗原结合分子包括但不限于抗体或抗体模拟物。“抗体模拟物”是指能够与抗原特异性结合,但与抗体结构无关的有机化合物或结合域,示例性地,抗体模拟物包括但不限于affibody、affitin、affilin、经设计的锚蛋白重复蛋白(DARPin)、核酸适体或Kunitz型结构域肽。
本文术语“抗体”按最广义使用,是指包含来自免疫球蛋白重链可变区的足够序列和/或来自免疫球蛋白轻链可变区的足够序列,从而能够特异性结合至抗原的多肽或多肽组合。本文“抗体”涵盖各种形式和各种结构,只要它们展现出期望的抗原结合活性。本文“抗体”包括具有移植的互补决定区(CDR)或CDR衍生物的替代蛋白质支架或人工支架。此类支架包括抗体衍生的支架(其包含引入以例如稳定化抗体三维结构的突变)以及包含例如生物相容性聚合物的全合成支架。参见,例如Korndorfer等人,2003,Proteins:Structure,Function,and Bioinformatics,53(1):121-129(2003);Roque等人,Biotechnol.Prog.20:639-654(2004)。此类支架还可以包括非抗体衍生的支架,例如本领域已知可用于移植CDR的支架蛋白,包括但不限于肌腱蛋白、纤连蛋白、肽适体等。
术语“抗体”包括完整抗体及其任何抗原结合片段(即“抗原结合部分”)或单链。“抗体”是指包含通过二硫键互相连接在一起的至少两条重(H)链和两条轻(L)链的糖蛋白,或其抗原结合部分。每条重链由重链可变区(在此缩写为VH)和重链恒定区组成。重链恒定区由三个结构域CH1、CH2和CH3组成。每条轻链由轻链可变区(在此缩写为VL)和轻 链恒定区组成。轻链恒定区由一个结构域CL组成。VH和VL区可进一步再分为高变区,称为互补决定区(CDR),CDR散布在被称为构架区(FR)的更加保守的区域中。每个VH和VL,均由三个CDR和四个FR组成,它们从氨基端向羧基端以如下顺序排列:FR1,CDR1,FR2,CDR2,FR3,CDR3,FR4。重链和轻链的可变区含有可与抗原相互作用的结合结构域。抗体的恒定区可以介导免疫球蛋白与宿主组织或因子的结合,该宿主组织或因子包括免疫***的各种细胞(例如效应细胞)和经典补体***的第一成分(C1q)。由于免疫球蛋白重链恒定区的氨基酸组成和排列顺序不同,故其抗原性也不同。据此,可将本文“免疫球蛋白”分为五类,或称为免疫球蛋白的同种型,即IgM、IgD、IgG、IgA和IgE,其相应的重链分别为μ链、δ链、γ链、α链和ε链。同一类Ig根据其铰链区氨基酸组成和重链二硫键的数目和位置的差别,又可分为不同的亚类,如IgG可分为IgG1、IgG2、IgG3、IgG4,IgA可分为IgA1和IgA2。轻链通过恒定区的不同分为κ链或λ链。五类Ig中每类Ig都可以有κ链或λ链。
本文“抗体”还包括不包含轻链的抗体,例如,由单峰驼(Camelus dromedarius)、双峰驼(Camelus bactrianus)、大羊驼(Lama glama)、原驼(Lama guanicoe)和羊驼(Vicugna pacos)等骆驼科动物产生的重链抗体(heavy-chain antibodies,HCAbs)以及在鲨等软骨鱼纲中发现的免疫球蛋白新抗原受体(Ig new antigen receptor,IgNAR)。
本文术语“抗体”可以来源于任何动物,包括但不限于人和非人动物,所述非人动物可选自灵长类动物、哺乳动物、啮齿动物和脊椎动物,例如骆驼科动物、大羊驼、原鸵、羊驼、羊、兔、小鼠、大鼠或软骨鱼纲(例如鲨)。
本文术语“重链抗体”是指缺乏常规抗体的轻链的抗体。该术语具体包括但不限于在不存在CH1结构域的情况下包含VH抗原结合结构域以及CH2和CH3恒定结构域的同型二聚体抗体。
本文术语“纳米抗体”是指骆驼等体内存在天然的缺失轻链的重链抗体,克隆其可变区可以得到只有重链可变区组成的单域抗体,也称为VHH(Variable domain of heavy chain of heavy chain antibody),它是最小的功能性抗原结合片段。
本文术语“VHH结构域”和“纳米抗体(nanobody)”、“单域抗体”(single domain antibody,sdAb)具有相同的含义并可互换使用,是指克隆重链抗体的可变区,构建仅由一个重链可变区组成的单域抗体,它是具有完整功能的最小的抗原结合片段。通常先获得天然缺失轻链和重链恒定区1(CH1)的重链抗体后,再克隆抗体重链的可变区,构建仅由一个重链可变区组成的单域抗体。
关于“重链抗体”和“单域抗体”、“VHH结构域”和“纳米抗体”的进一步描述可参见:Hamers-Casterman等,Nature.1993;363;446-8;Muyldermans的综述文章(Reviews in Molecular Biotechnology 74:277-302,2001);以及以下专利申请,其被作为一般背景技术提及:WO 94/04678,WO 95/04079和WO 96/34103;WO 94/25591,WO 99/37681,WO 00/40968,WO 00/43507,WO 00/65057,WO 01/40310,WO 01/44301,EP 1134231和WO 02/48193;WO97/49805,WO 01/21817,WO 03/035694,WO 03/054016和WO 03/055527;WO 03/050531;WO 01/90190;WO03/025020;以及WO 04/041867,WO 04/041862,WO 04/041865,WO 04/041863,WO 04/062551,WO 05/044858,WO 06/40153,WO 06/079372,WO 06/122786,WO 06/122787和WO 06/122825以及这些申请中提到的其他现有技术。
本文术语“多特异性”是指抗体或其抗原结合片段结合例如不同抗原或同一抗原上的至少两种不同表位的能力。因此,诸如“双特异性”、“三特异性”、“四特异性”等术语是指抗体可以结合的不同表位的数目。例如,常规的单特异性IgG型抗体具有两个相同的抗原结合位点(互补位),因此仅可以结合相同的表位(而不是结合不同的表位)。相比之下,多特异性抗体具有至少两种不同类型的互补位/结合位点,因此可以结合至少两种不同的表位。如本文所述,“互补决定区”是指抗体的抗原结合位点。此外,单个“特异性”可以指单个抗体中的一个、两个、三个或多于三个相同的互补决定区(一个单个抗体分子中的互补决定区/结合位点的实际数量称为“价”)。例如,单个天然IgG抗体是单特异性和二价的,因为它具有两个相同的互补位。相应地,多特异性抗体包含至少两种(不同的)互补决定区/结合位点。因此,术语“多特异性抗体”是指具有多于一个互补位并具有结合两种或多于两种不同表位的能力的抗体。术语“多特异性抗体”特别地包括如上文所定义的双特异性抗体,但是通常还包括蛋白质,例如特别结合三种或多于三种不同的表位的抗体、支架,即具有三种或多于三种互补位/结合位点的抗体。
本文术语“价”表示抗体/抗原结合分子中规定数目的结合位点的存在。因此,术语“单价”、“二价”、“四价”和“六价”分别表示抗体/抗原结合分子中一个结合位点、两个结合位点、四个结合位点和六个结合位点的存在。
本文“全长抗体”、“完好抗体”和“完整抗体”在本文中可互换使用,是指具有基本上与天然抗体结构相似的结构。
本文“抗原结合片段”和“抗体片段”在本文中可互换使用,其不具备完整抗体的全部结构,仅包含完整抗体的局部或局部的变体,所述局部或局部的变体具备结合抗原的能力。示例性地,本文“抗原结合片段”或“抗体片段”包括但不限于Fab、F(ab’)2、Fab’、Fab’-SH、Fd、Fv、scFv、双抗体(diabody)和单域抗体。
本文术语“嵌合抗体”是指以下抗体,其具有源自一种来源生物(如大鼠、小鼠、兔或羊驼)的免疫球蛋白的可变序列以及源自不同生物体(例如人)的免疫球蛋白的恒定区。用于生产嵌合抗体的方法是本领域已知的。参见例如,Morrison,1985,Science 229(4719):1202-7;Oi等人,1986,Bio Techniques 4:214-221;Gillies等人,1985 J Immunol Methods 125:191-202;以上通过援引加入并入本文。
本文术语“人源化抗体”是指经基因工程改造的非人源抗体,其氨基酸序列经修饰以提高与人源抗体的序列的同源性。通常而言,人源化抗体的全部或部分CDR区来自于非人源抗体(供体抗体),全部或部分的非CDR区(例如,可变区FR和/或恒定区)来自于人源免疫球蛋白(受体抗体)。人源化抗体通常保留或部分保留了供体抗体的预期性质,包括但不限于,抗原特异性、亲和性、反应性、提高免疫细胞活性的能力或增强免疫应答的能力等。
本文术语“全人抗体”是指具有其中FR和CDR二者都源自人种系免疫球蛋白序列的可变区的抗体。此外,如果抗体包含恒定区,则恒定区也源自人种系免疫球蛋白序列。本文全人抗体可以包括不由人种系免疫球蛋白序列编码的氨基酸残基(例如,通过体外随机或位点特异性诱变或通过体内体细胞突变引入的突变)。然而,本文“全人抗体”不包括其中来源于另一个哺乳动物物种(例如小鼠)的种系的CDR序列已被移植到人框架序列上的抗体。
本文术语“可变区”是指抗体重链或轻链中牵涉使抗体结合抗原的区域,“重链可变区”与“VH”、“HCVR”可互换使用,“轻链可变区”与“VL”、“LCVR”可互换使用。天然抗体的重链和轻链的可变域一般具有相似的结构,每个域包含四个保守的框架区(FR)和三个高变区(HVR)。参见例如Kindt等人,Kuby Immunology,6 th ed.,W.H.Freeman and Co.,p.91(2007)。单个VH或VL域可足以赋予抗原结合特异性。
本文术语“互补决定区”与“CDR”可互换使用,通常指在轻链和重链可变结构域中均发现的高变区(HVR)。可变结构域中更高保守性的部分称为框架区(FR)。如本领域所理解的,表示抗体的高变区的氨基酸位置可以根据上下文和本领域已知的各种定义而变化。可变结构域内的一些位置可以被视为杂合高变位置,因为这些位置可以被认为是在一组标准(如IMGT或KABAT)下的高变区之内,而被认为在不同组的标准(如KABAT或IMGT)下的高变区之外。这些位置中的一个或更多个也可以在延伸的高变区中找到。本申请包括在这些杂合高变的位置中包含修饰的抗体。重链可变区CDR可缩写为HCDR,轻链可变区可缩写为LCDR。天然重链和轻链的可变结构域各自包含主要采用片层构型的四个框架区,其通过三个CDR(CDR1、CDR2和CDR3)连接,这三个CDR形成连接片层结构的环,并且在一些情况下形成片层结构的一部分。每条链中的CDR通过FR区按顺序FR1-CDR1-FR2-CDR2-FR3-CDR3-FR4紧密保持在一起,并且与来自其他抗体链的CDR促成了抗体的抗原结合位点的形成(参见Kabat等人,Sequences of Protein sofImmunological Interest,National Institute of Health,Bethesda,Md.1987;其通过援引加入并入本文)。
对于CDR的进一步描述,参考Kabat等人,J.Biol.Chem.,252:6609-6616(1977);Kabat等人,美国卫生与公共服务部,“Sequences of proteins of immunological interest”(1991);Chothia等人,J.Mol.Biol.196:901-917(1987);Al-Lazikani B.等人,J.Mol.Biol.,273:927-948(1997);MacCallum等人,J.Mol.Biol.262:732-745(1996);Abhinandan和Martin,Mol.Immunol.,45:3832-3839(2008);Lefranc M.P.等人,Dev.Comp.Immunol.,27:55-77(2003);以及Honegger和Plückthun,J.Mol.Biol.,309:657-670(2001)。本文“CDR”可由本领域公知的方式加以标注和定义,包括但不限于Kabat编号***、Chothia编号***或IMGT编号***,使用的工具网站包括但不限于AbRSA网站(http://cao.labshare.cn/AbRSA/cdrs.php)、abYsis网站(www.abysis.org/abysis/sequence_input/key_annotation/key_annotation.cgi)和IMGT网站(http://www.imgt.org/3Dstructure-DB/cgi/DomainGapAlign.cgi#results)。本文CDR包括不同定义方式的氨基酸残基的重叠(overlap)和子集。
本文术语“Kabat编号***”通常是指由Elvin A.Kabat提出的免疫球蛋白比对及编号***(参见,例如Kabat等人,Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,5th Ed.Public Health Service,National Institutes of Health,Bethesda,Md.,1991)。
本文术语“Chothia编号***”通常是指由Chothia等人提出的免疫球蛋白编号***,其是基于结构环区的位置鉴定CDR区边界的经典规则(参见,例如Chothia&Lesk(1987)J.Mol.Biol.196:901-917;Chothia等人(1989)Nature 342:878-883)。
本文术语“IMGT编号***”通常是指基于由Lefranc等人发起的国际免疫遗传学信息***(The international ImMunoGeneTics information system(IMGT))的编号***,可参阅Lefranc等人,Dev.Comparat.Immunol.27:55-77,2003。
本文术语“重链恒定区”是指抗体重链的羧基端部分,其不直接参与抗体与抗原的结合,但是表现出效应子功能,诸如与Fc受体的相互作用,其相对于抗体的可变结构域具有更保守的氨基酸序列。“重链恒定区”可选自CH1结构域,铰链区,CH2结构域,CH3结构域,或其变体或片段。“重链恒定区”包括“全长重链恒定区”和“重链恒定区片段”,前者具有基本上与天然抗体恒定区基本相似的结构,而后者仅包括“全长重链恒定区的一部分”。示例性地,典型的“全长抗体重链恒定区”由CH1结构域-铰链区-CH2结构域-CH3结构域组成;当抗体为IgE时,其还包括CH4结构域;当抗体为重链抗体时,则其不包括CH1结构域。示例性地,典型的“重链恒定区片段”可选自Fc或CH3结构域。
本文术语“轻链恒定区”是指抗体轻链的羧基端部分,其不直接参与抗体与抗原的结合,所述轻链恒定区可选自恒定κ结构域或恒定λ结构域。
本文中的术语“Fc区”用于定义抗体重链中含有恒定区的至少一部分的C端区域。该术语包括天然序列Fc区和变体Fc区。示例性地,人IgG重链Fc区可自Cys226或Pro230延伸至重链的羧基末端。然而,由宿主细胞生成的抗体可经历翻译后切割,自重链的C端切除一个或多个,特别是一个或两个氨基酸。因此,通过编码全长重链的特定核酸分子的表达由宿主细胞生成的抗体可包括全长重链,或者它可包括全长重链的切割变体。当重链的最终两个C端氨基酸是甘氨酸(G446)和赖氨酸(K447,编号方式依照Kabat EU索引)时可能就是这种情况。因此,Fc区的C端赖氨酸(Lys447),或C端甘氨酸(Gly446)和赖氨酸(Lys447)可以存在或不存在。典型地,IgG Fc区包含IgG CH2和IgG CH3域,可选地,在此基础上还可包含完整或部分铰链区,但不包含CH1域。人IgG Fc区的“CH2域”通常自约位置231处的氨基酸残基延伸至约位置340处的氨基酸残基。在一个实施方案中,碳水化合物链附着于CH2域。本文中的CH2域可以是天然序列CH2域或变体CH2域。“CH3域”包含Fc区中在CH2域C端的那段残基(即自IgG的约位置341处的氨基酸残基至约位置447处的氨基酸残基)。本文中的CH3区可以是天然序列CH3域或变体CH3域(例如具有在其一条链中引入的“***”“节”,(knob)和在其另一条链中相应引入的“空腔”“穴”,(hole)的CH3域;参见美国专利No.5,821,333,通过援引明确收入本文)。如本文中描述的,此类变体CH3域可用于促进两条不相同抗体重链的异二聚化。
除非本文中另有规定,Fc区或恒定区中的氨基酸残基的编号依照EU编号***,也称作EU索引,如Kabat等人,Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,5th Ed.Public Health Service,National Institutes of Health,Bethesda,MD,1991中描述的。
本文术语“Fc变体”是指,通过在Fc上合适的位点处存在一个或者多个氨基酸替换、***或缺失突变引起Fc结构或功能的变化。“Fc变体间作用”指的是经突变设计的Fc变体之间,可以形成空间填充效应、静电导引、氢键作用、疏水作用等。Fc变体间相互作用有助于形成稳定的异源二聚体蛋白。优选的突变设计为“Knob-into-Hole”形式的突变设计。
Fc变体的突变设计技术在本领域内已经较为广泛的应用于制备双特异性抗体或者异源二聚的Fc融合蛋白形式。代表性的有Cater等人(Protein Engineering vol.9 no.7 pp.617-621,1996)提出的“Knob-into-Hole”形式;Amgen公司技术人员利用静电导引(Electrostatic Steering)形成含Fc的异源二聚体形式(US 20100286374 A1);Jonathan H.Davis等人(Protein Engineering,Design&Selection pp.1-8,2010)提出的通过IgG/Ig链交换形成的异源二聚体形式 (SEEDbodies);Genmab公司DuoBody(Science,2007.317(5844))平台技术形成的双特异性分子;Xencor公司的技术人员综合结构计算及Fc氨基酸突变,综合不同作用方式形成异源二聚体蛋白形式(mAbs 3:6,546-557;November/December 2011);苏州康宁杰瑞公司的基于电荷网络的Fc改造方法(CN201110459100.7)得到异源二聚体蛋白形式;以及其它基于Fc氨基酸变化或者功能改造手段,达到形成异源二聚体功能蛋白的基因工程方法。本申请所述的Fc变体片段上的Knob/Hole结构指两条Fc片段各自突变,突变后可以通过“Knob-into-Hole”形式进行结合。优选用Cater等人的“knob-into-hole”模型在Fc区上进行位点突变的改造,以使得到的第一Fc变体和第二Fc变体能以“knob-into-hole”的形式结合在一起形成异源二聚体。从特定的免疫球蛋白类别和亚类中选择特定的免疫球蛋白Fc区在本领域技术人员所掌握的范围之内。优选人类抗体IgG1、IgG2、IgG3、IgG4的Fc区,更优选人抗体IgG1的Fc区。随机任选第一Fc变体或第二Fc变体中一个做knob的突变,另一个做hole的突变。
本文术语“保守氨基酸”通常是指属于同一类或具有类似特征(例如电荷、侧链大小、疏水性、亲水性、主链构象和刚性)的氨基酸。示例性地,下述每组内的氨基酸属于彼此的保守氨基酸残基,组内氨基酸残基的替换属于保守氨基酸的替换:
1)丙氨酸(A)、丝氨酸(S)、苏氨酸(T);
2)天冬氨酸(D)、谷氨酸(E);
3)天冬酰胺(N)、谷氨酰胺(Q);
4)精氨酸(R)、赖氨酸(K)、组氨酸(H);
5)异亮氨酸(I)、亮氨酸(L)、甲硫氨酸(M)、缬氨酸(V);和
6)苯丙氨酸(F)、酪氨酸(Y)、色氨酸(W)。
本文术语“同一性”可通过以下方式计算获得:为确定两个氨基酸序列或两个核酸序列的“同一性”百分数,将所述序列出于最佳比较目的比对(例如,可以为最佳比对而在第一和第二氨基酸序列或核酸序列之一或二者中引入空位或可以为比较目的而抛弃非同源序列)。随后比较在对应氨基酸位置或核苷酸位置处的氨基酸残基或核苷酸。当第一序列中的位置由第二序列中对应位置处的相同氨基酸残基或核苷酸占据时,则所述分子在这个位置处是相同的。考虑到为最佳比对这两个序列而需要引入的空位的数目和每个空位的长度,两个序列之间的同一性百分数随所述序列共有的相同位置变化而变化。
可以利用数学算法实现两个序列间的序列比较和同一性百分数的计算。例如,使用已经集成至GCG软件包的GAP程序中的Needlema和Wunsch((1970)J.Mol.Biol.48:444-453)算法(在www.gcg.com可获得),使用Blossum 62矩阵或PAM250矩阵和空位权重16、14、12、10、8、6或4和长度权重1、2、3、4、5或6,确定两个氨基酸序列之间的同一性百分数。又例如,使用GCG软件包中的GAP程序(在www.gcg.com可获得),使用NWSgapdna.CMP矩阵和空位权重40、50、60、70或80和长度权重1、2、3、4、5或6,确定两个核苷酸序列之间的同一性百分数。特别优选的参数集合(和除非另外说明否则应当使用的一个参数集合)是采用空位罚分12、空位延伸罚分4和移码空位罚分5的Blossum62评分矩阵。还可以使用PAM120加权余数表、空位长度罚分12,空位罚分4,利用已经并入ALIGN程序(2.0版)的E.Meyers和W.Miller算法,((1989)CABIOS,4:11-17)确定两个氨基酸序列或核苷酸序列之间的同一性百 分数。
额外地或备选地,可以进一步使用本申请所述的核酸序列和蛋白质序列作为“查询序列”以针对公共数据库执行检索,以例如鉴定其他家族成员序列或相关序列。例如,可以使用Altschul等人,(1990)J.Mol.Biol.215:403-10的NBLAST及XBLAST程序(版本2.0)执行此类检索。BLAST核苷酸检索可以用NBLAST程序,评分=100、字长度=12执行,以获得与本申请核酸分子同源的核苷酸序列。BLAST蛋白质检索可以用XBLAST程序、评分=50、字长度=3执行,以获得与本申请蛋白质分子同源的氨基酸序列。为了出于比较目的获得带空位的比对结果,可以如Altschul等人,(1997)Nucleic Acids Res.25:3389-3402中所述那样使用空位BLAST。当使用BLAST和空位BLAST程序时,可以使用相应程序(例如,XBLAST和NBLAST)的默认参数。参见www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov。
本文术语“嵌合抗原受体(CAR)”是指经改造以在免疫效应细胞上表达并且特异性结合抗原的人工细胞表面受体,其至少包含(1)细胞外抗原结合结构域,例如抗体的重链可变区和/或轻链可变区,(2)锚定CAR进入免疫效应细胞的跨膜结构域,和(3)胞内信号传导结构域。CAR能够利用细胞外抗原结合结构域以非MHC限制性的方式将T细胞和其它免疫效应细胞重定向至所选择的靶标,例如癌细胞。

4.4嵌合抗体与阳性对照抗体5F11竞争力鉴定
为了鉴定嵌合抗体与抗原的结合能力,采用竞争ELISA的方法对GPRC5D嵌合抗体与阳性对照分子5F11竞争结合抗原进行分析。对阳性分子5F11进行生物素标记,hGPRC5D-LVP蛋白(厂家:恺佧生物,货号:GPR-HM05P)2μg/mL包被ELISA板,Biotin-5F11抗体从100nM开始三倍进行梯度稀释,测定Biotin-5F11抗体OD 450值,使用GraphPad Prism软件拟合曲线,计算出EC80浓度作为竞争性ELISA中的参考浓度。
hGPRC5D-LVP蛋白稀释到2μg/mL,以50μL/孔包被96孔高吸附酶标板,4℃过夜包被后用250μL封闭液(含有2%(w/v)BSA的PBS)进行室温两小时封闭,加入100nM开始、三倍梯度稀释的嵌合抗体后,再加入Biotin-5F11 EC80浓度的抗体(约为1nM),孵育1.5小时,用PBS洗5次后加入HRP标记的Streptavidin Peroxidase Conjugate二抗(购自sigma-millipore,货号:189733),孵育1小时,洗板5次。加入TMB底物50μL每孔,室温孵育10分钟后,加入终止液(1.0M HCl)50μL每孔。用ELISA读板机(Insight,购自PerkinElmer)读取OD450nm数值,根据OD450nm数值,结果如表11和图12A~12C所示,值越低,表示嵌合抗体的竞争力越大。结果显示8个嵌合抗体均与阳性分子5F11-hIgG1有表位竞争关系。

实施例5 GPRC5D鼠源抗体的人源化
5.1 GPRC5D-mab01的人源化
通过比对IMGT(http://imgt.cines.fr)人类抗体重轻链可变区种系基因数据库,分别挑选与鼠源抗体同源性高的重链和轻链可变区种系基因作为模板,将鼠源抗体的CDR分别移植到相应的人源模板中,形成次序为FR1-CDR1-FR2-CDR2-FR3-CDR3-FR4的可变区序列。根据需要,将骨架序列(FR区序列)中关键氨基酸回复突变为鼠源抗体对应的氨基酸,以保证原有的亲和力,同时抗体存在的易发生化学修饰的位点,已对这些位点进行点突变以消除修饰风险,得到人源化单克隆抗体。其中抗体的CDR氨基酸残基由Kabat编号***确定并注释。
鼠源抗体GPRC5D-mab01的人源化轻链模板为IGKV1-9*01和IGKJ4*01,人源化重链模板为IGHV2-26*01和IGHJ6*01。具体突变设计见表12。
