Approximately or about: As used herein, the term “approximately” or “about,” as applied to one or more values of interest, refers to a value that is similar to a stated reference value. In certain embodiments, the term “approximately” or “about” refers to a range of values that fall within 25%, 20%, 19%, 18%, 17%, 16%, 15%, 14%, 13%, 12%, 11%, 10%, 9%, 8%, 7%, 6%, 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, 1%, or less in either direction (greater than or less than) of the stated reference value unless otherwise stated or otherwise evident from the context (except where such number would exceed 100% of a possible value).
Antibody: As used herein, the term “antibody” refers to a polypeptide that includes at least one immunoglobulin variable region, e.g., an amino acid sequence that provides an immunoglobulin variable domain or immunoglobulin variable domain sequence. For example, an antibody can include a heavy (H) chain variable region (abbreviated herein as VH), and a light (L) chain variable region (abbreviated herein as VL). In another example, an antibody includes two heavy (H) chain variable regions and two light (L) chain variable regions. The term “antibody” encompasses immunoglobulins of types IgA, IgG, IgE, IgD, IgM (as well as subtypes thereof). A light chains of an immunoglobulin can be a kappa light chain or lambda light chain.
Associated with: Two events or entities are “associated” with one another, as that term is used herein, if the presence, level and/or form of one is correlated with that of the other. For example, a particular entity (e.g., polypeptide, genetic signature, metabolite, microbe, etc.) is considered to be associated with a particular disease, disorder, or condition, if its presence, level and/or form correlates with incidence of and/or susceptibility to the disease, disorder, or condition (e.g., across a relevant population). In some embodiments, two or more entities are physically “associated” with one another if they interact, directly or indirectly, so that they are and/or remain in physical proximity with one another. In some embodiments, two or more entities that are physically associated with one another are covalently linked to one another. In some embodiments, two or more entities that are physically associated with one another are not covalently linked to one another but are non-covalently associated, for example by means of hydrogen bonds, van der Waals interaction, hydrophobic interactions, magnetism, and combinations thereof.
Binding: As used herein, the term “binding” typically refers to a non-covalent association between or among two or more entities. “Direct” binding involves physical contact between entities or moieties; indirect binding involves physical interaction by way of physical contact with one or more intermediate entities. Binding between two or more entities can typically be assessed in any of a variety of contexts—including where interacting entities or moieties are studied in isolation or in the context of more complex systems (e.g., while covalently or otherwise associated with a carrier entity and/or in a biological system such as a cell).
Binding Moiety: As used herein, a “binding moiety” is any molecule or part of a molecule capable of specifically binding a target, e.g., a target of interest. Binding moieties include, e.g., antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof. As used herein, an “antigen-binding polypeptide” is any polypeptide including a binding moiety, which antigen-binding polypeptide can be, in certain non-limiting examples, an antibody or a fragment thereof. An “antigen-binding polypeptide” can be any of, without limitation, a heavy chain antibody, light chain antibody, LRR-based antibody, other protein scaffold with antibody-like properties, or other immunological binding moiety known in the art, including, e.g., a four-chain immunoglobulin, imunoadhesin, diabody, dsFv, diabody, triabody, tetrabody, minibody, maxibody, TandAb, single chain antibody, heavy chain antibody, single domain heavy chain antibody, particular HCDR, particular LCDR, heavy chain variable domain, light chain variable domain, DVD, BiTe, scFv, scAb, Fab, Fab′, Fab2, Fab3, F(ab′)2, Fd, Fd′, Fv or the like, or any combination thereof.
Biomarker: As used herein, the term “biomarker” is used herein, consistent with its use in the art, to refer to a to an entity whose presence, level, or form, correlates with a particular biological event or state of interest, so that it is considered to be a “marker” of that event or state. To give but a few examples, in some embodiments, a biomarker may be or comprise a marker for a particular disease state, or for likelihood that a particular disease, disorder or condition may develop, occur, or reoccur. In some embodiments, a biomarker may be or include a marker for a particular disease or therapeutic outcome, or likelihood thereof. Thus, in some embodiments, a biomarker is predictive, prognostic, and/or diagnostic, of a relevant biological event or state of interest. A biomarker can be an entity of any chemical class. For example, in some embodiments, a biomarker may be or include a nucleic acid, a polypeptide, a lipid, a carbohydrate, a small molecule, an inorganic agent (e.g., a metal or ion), or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, a biomarker is a cell surface marker. In some embodiments, a biomarker is intracellular. In some embodiments, a biomarker is found outside of cells (e.g., is secreted or is otherwise generated or present outside of cells, e.g., in a body fluid such as blood, urine, tears, saliva, cerebrospinal fluid, etc.
Cancer: As used herein, the terms “cancer,” “malignancy,” “neoplasm,” “tumor,” and “carcinoma” refer to cells that exhibit relatively abnormal, uncontrolled, and/or autonomous growth, so that they exhibit an aberrant growth phenotype characterized by a significant loss of control of cell proliferation. In some embodiments, a tumor may be or include cells that are precancerous (e.g., benign), malignant, pre-metastatic, metastatic, and/or non-metastatic. The present disclosure specifically identifies certain cancers to which its teachings may be particularly relevant. In some embodiments, a relevant cancer may be characterized by a solid tumor. In some embodiments, a relevant cancer may be characterized by a hematologic tumor. In general, examples of different types of cancers are known in the art.
Carrier: as used herein, refers to a diluent, adjuvant, excipient, or vehicle with which a composition is administered. In some exemplary embodiments, carriers can include sterile liquids, such as, for example, water and oils, including oils of petroleum, animal, vegetable or synthetic origin, such as, for example, peanut oil, soybean oil, mineral oil, sesame oil, or the like. In some embodiments, a carrier is or includes one or more solid components.
CDR-grafted antibody: As used herein, the term “CDR-grafted antibody” refers to an antibody whose amino acid sequence comprises heavy and light chain variable region sequences of a first species but in which the sequences of one or more of the CDR regions of VH and/or VL are replaced with CDR sequences of another species, such as (to provide just one example) an antibody having murine VH and VL regions in which one or more of the murine CDRs (e.g., CDR3) has been replaced with human CDR sequences. Likewise, a “CDR-grafted antibody” encompasses, as an example, an antibody having human VH and VL regions in which one or more of the human CDRs (e.g., CDR3) has been replaced with mouse CDR sequences.
Constant region: As used herein, the term “constant region” refers to a polypeptide that corresponds to, or is derived from, one or more constant region immunoglobulin domains of an antibody. A constant region can include any or all of the following immunoglobulin domains: a CH1 domain, a hinge region, a CH2 domain, a CH3 domain (derived from an IgA, IgD, IgG, IgE, or IgM), and a CH4 domain (derived from an IgE or IgM).
Dosage form or unit dosage form: As used herein, the term “dosage form” may be used to refer to a physically discrete unit, aliquot, or amount of an agent (e.g., a therapeutic or diagnostic agent) for administration to a subject. Typically, each such unit contains a predetermined quantity of active agent, e.g., a predetermined mass or number of moles of an agent.
Epitope: As used herein, the term “epitope” includes any moiety that is specifically recognized by an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide, or a binding moiety thereof. In some embodiments, an epitope is comprised of a plurality of chemical atoms or groups on an antigen. In some embodiments and/or antigen conformations, such chemical atoms or groups are physically near to each other in space. In various embodiments, an epitope is understood to be represented by an amino acid sequence. It is understood that an epitope represented by an amino acid sequence can, some embodiments, entail a particular conformation of indicated amino acids, e.g., a conformation adopted by indicated amino acids when present in a particular protein and/or in a particular context.
Excipient: As used herein, the term “excipient” refers to an agent that may be included in a composition, for example to provide or contribute to a desired consistency or stabilizing effect. In some embodiments, a suitable excipient can be or include, for example, starch, glucose, lactose, sucrose, gelatin, malt, rice, flour, chalk, silica gel, sodium stearate, glycerol monostearate, talc, sodium chloride, dried skim milk, glycerol, propylene, glycol, water, ethanol and the like. An excipient can be a component of a composition or formulation that includes an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide, which excipient is not an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide.
Homology: As used herein, the term “homology” refers to the overall relatedness between polymeric molecules, e.g., between nucleic acid molecules (e.g., DNA molecules and/or RNA molecules) and/or between polypeptide molecules. In some embodiments, polymeric molecules are considered to be “homologous” to one another if their sequences are at least 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 99% identical. In some embodiments, polymeric molecules are considered to be “homologous” to one another if their sequences are at least 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 99% similar. Comparison or alignment of sequences and determination of percent homology between two sequences can be accomplished using a mathematical algorithm, such as BLAST (basic local alignment search tool).
Human antibody: As used herein, the term “human antibody” is intended to include antibodies having variable and constant regions generated, assembled, or derived from human immunoglobulin sequences. In some embodiments, antibodies (or antibody components) may be considered to be “human” even though their amino acid sequences include residues or elements not encoded by human germline immunoglobulin sequences (e.g., include sequence variations, for example that may (originally) have been introduced by random or site-specific mutagenesis in vitro or by somatic mutation in vivo), e.g., in one or more CDRs.
Humanized: As used herein, the term “humanized” can refer to an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide having an amino acid sequence that includes VH and VL region sequences from a reference antibody raised in a non-human species (e.g., a mouse), but also includes modifications in those sequences relative to the reference antibody intended to render them more “human-like,” i.e., more similar to human germline variable sequences. In some embodiments, a “humanized” antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide is one that immunospecifically binds to an antigen of interest and that has a framework (FR) region having substantially the amino acid sequence as that of a human antibody, and a complementary determining region (CDR) having substantially the amino acid sequence as that of a non-human antibody. A humanized antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide can be a antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide in which substantially all of at least one, and typically two, variable domains (Fab, Fab′, F(ab′)2, FabC, Fv) in which all or substantially all of the CDR regions correspond to those of a non-human immunoglobulin (i.e., donor immunoglobulin) and all or substantially all of the framework regions are those of a human immunoglobulin consensus sequence. In some embodiments, a humanized antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide includes at least a portion of an immunoglobulin constant region (Fc), typically that of a human immunoglobulin constant region. In some embodiments, a humanized antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide contains both the light chain as well as at least the variable domain of a heavy chain. A humanized antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide can include a CH1, hinge, CH2, CH3, and, optionally, a CH4 region of a heavy chain constant region. In some embodiments, a humanized antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide only contains a humanized VL region. In some embodiments, a humanized antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide only contains a humanized VH region. In some certain embodiments, a humanized antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide contains humanized VH and VL regions.
Identity: As used herein, the term “identity” refers to the overall relatedness between polymeric molecules, e.g., between nucleic acid molecules (e.g., DNA molecules and/or RNA molecules) and/or between polypeptide molecules. Methods for the calculation of a percent identity as between two provided polypeptide sequences are known in the art. Calculation of the percent identity of two nucleic acid or polypeptide sequences, for example, can be performed by aligning the two sequences for optimal comparison purposes (e.g., gaps can be introduced in one or both of a first and a second sequences for optimal alignment and non-identical sequences can be disregarded for comparison purposes). The nucleotides or amino acids at corresponding positions are then compared. When a position in the first sequence is occupied by the same residue (e.g., nucleotide or amino acid) as the corresponding position in the second sequence, then the molecules are identical at that position. The percent identity between the two sequences is a function of the number of identical positions shared by the sequences, optionally taking into account the number of gaps, and the length of each gap, which may need to be introduced for optimal alignment of the two sequences. Comparison or alignment of sequences and determination of percent identity between two sequences can be accomplished using a mathematical algorithm, such as BLAST (basic local alignment search tool).
“Improved,” “increased,” or “reduced”: As used herein, these terms, or grammatically comparable comparative terms, indicate values that are relative to a comparable reference measurement. For example, in some embodiments, an assessed value achieved with an agent of interest may be “improved” relative to that obtained with a comparable reference agent. Alternatively or additionally, in some embodiments, an assessed value achieved in a subject or system of interest may be “improved” relative to that obtained in the same subject or system under different conditions (e.g., prior to or after an event such as administration of an agent of interest), or in a different, comparable subject (e.g., in a comparable subject or system that differs from the subject or system of interest in presence of one or more indicators of a particular disease, disorder or condition of interest, or in prior exposure to a condition or agent, etc). In some embodiments, comparative terms refer to statistically relevant differences (e.g., that are of a prevalence and/or magnitude sufficient to achieve statistical relevance). Those skilled in the art will be aware, or will readily be able to determine, in a given context, a degree and/or prevalence of difference that is required or sufficient to achieve such statistical significance.
In vitro: The term “in vitro” as used herein refers to events occurring in an artificial environment, e.g., in a test tube, reaction vessel, cell culture, etc., rather than within a multi-cellular organism.
In vivo: As used herein, the term “in vivo” refers to events that occur within a multi-cellular organism, such as a human or a non-human animal. In the context of cell-based systems, the term may be used to refer to events that occur within a living cell (as opposed to, for example, in vitro systems).
Isolated: as used herein, refers to a substance that (1) has been separated from at least some components with which it was associated at an earlier time or with which the substance would otherwise be associated, and/or (2) is present in a composition that is or includes a limited or defined amount or concentration of one or more known or unknown contaminants. An isolated substance, in some embodiments, can be separated from about 10%, about 20%, about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 90%, about 91%, about 92%, about 93%, about 94%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98%, about 99%, or more than about 99% of other non-substance components with which the substance was associated at an earlier time, e.g., other particular components or contaminants with which the substance was previously or otherwise would be associated. In certain instances, a substance is isolated if it is present in a composition that includes a limited or reduced amount or concentration of molecules of a same or similar type. For instance, in certain instances, a nucleic acid, DNA, or RNA substance is isolated if it is present in a composition that includes a limited or reduced amount or concentration of non-substance nucleic acid, DNA, or RNA molecules. For instance, in certain instances, a polypeptide substance is isolated if it is present in a composition that includes a limited or reduced amount or concentration of non-substance polypeptide molecules. In certain embodiments, an amount can be, e.g., an amount measured relative to the amount of a desired substance present in a composition. In certain embodiments, a limited amount can be an amount that is no more than 100% of the amount of substance in a composition, e.g., no more than 1%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, or 95% of the amount of substance in a composition. In certain instances, a composition is pure or substantially pure with respect to a particular substance. In some embodiments, an isolated substance is about 80%, about 85%, about 90%, about 91%, about 92%, about 93%, about 94%, about 95%, about 96%, about 97%, about 98%, about 99%, or more than about 99% pure. As used herein, a substance is “pure” if it is substantially free of other components or of contaminants. In some embodiments, as will be understood by those skilled in the art, a substance may still be considered “isolated” or even “pure,” after having been combined with certain other components such as, for example, one or more carriers or excipients (e.g., buffer, solvent, water, etc.); in such embodiments, percent isolation or purity of the substance is calculated without including such carriers or excipients. To give but one non-limiting example, in some embodiments, a biological polymer such as a polypeptide or polynucleotide that occurs in nature is considered to be “isolated” when, a) by virtue of its origin or source of derivation is not associated with some or all of the components that accompany it in its native state in nature; b) it is substantially free of other polypeptides or nucleic acids of the same species from the species that produces it in nature; and/or c) is expressed by or is otherwise in association with components from a cell or other expression system that is not of the species that produces it in nature. Thus, for instance, in some embodiments, a polypeptide that is chemically synthesized or is synthesized in a cellular system different from that which produces it in nature is considered to be an “isolated” polypeptide. Alternatively or additionally, in some embodiments, a polypeptide that has been subjected to one or more purification techniques may be considered to be an “isolated” polypeptide to the extent that it has been separated from other components a) with which it is associated in nature; and/or b) with which it was associated when initially produced.
Ka: As used herein, “Ka” refers to an association rate of a particular binding moiety and a target to form a binding moiety/target complex.
Kd: As used herein, “Kd” refers to a dissociation rate of a particular binding moiety/target complex.
KD: As used herein, “KD” refers to a dissociation constant, which is obtained from the ratio of Kd to Ka (i.e., Kd/Ka) and is expressed as a molar concentration (M). KD values can be determined using methods well established in the art, e.g., by using surface plasmon resonance, or using a biosensor system such as a Biacore® system.
Moiety: Those skilled in the art will appreciate that a “moiety” is a defined chemical group or entity with a particular structure and/or or activity, as described herein.
Reference: As used herein, a “reference” entity, system, amount, set of conditions, etc., is one against which a test entity, system, amount, set of conditions, etc. is compared as described herein. For example, in some embodiments, a “reference” antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide is a control antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide, e.g., an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide that is not described herein.
Pharmaceutically acceptable: As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable” means a molecule or composition is not deleterious to the recipient thereof, or that any deleterious effect is outweighed by a benefit to the recipient thereof. With respect to a carrier, diluent, or excipient used to formulate a composition as disclosed herein, a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, or excipient must be compatible with the other ingredients of the composition and not deleterious to the recipient thereof, or that any deleterious effect is outweighed by a benefit to the recipient thereof.
Pharmaceutically acceptable carrier: As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” means a pharmaceutically-acceptable material, composition or vehicle, such as a liquid or solid filler, diluent, excipient, or solvent encapsulating material, involved in carrying or transporting the subject compound from one organ, or portion of the body, to another organ, or portion of the body. Each carrier must be “acceptable” in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not injurious to the patient. Some examples of materials which can serve as pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers include: sugars, such as lactose, glucose and sucrose; starches, such as corn starch and potato starch; cellulose, and its derivatives, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose and cellulose acetate; powdered tragacanth; malt; gelatin; talc; excipients, such as cocoa butter and suppository waxes; oils, such as peanut oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil and soybean oil; glycols, such as propylene glycol; polyols, such as glycerin, sorbitol, mannitol and polyethylene glycol; esters, such as ethyl oleate and ethyl laurate; agar; buffering agents, such as magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide; alginic acid; pyrogen-free water; isotonic saline; Ringer's solution; ethyl alcohol; pH buffered solutions; polyesters, polycarbonates and/or polyanhydrides; and other non-toxic compatible substances employed in pharmaceutical formulations.
Reference: As used herein, the term “reference” describes a standard or control relative to which a comparison is performed. For example, in some embodiments, an agent, animal, individual, population, sample, sequence or value of interest is compared with a reference or control agent, animal, individual, population, sample, sequence or value. In some embodiments, a reference or control is tested and/or determined substantially simultaneously with the testing or determination of interest. In some embodiments, a reference or control is a historical reference or control, optionally embodied in a tangible medium. Typically, as would be understood by those skilled in the art, a reference or control is determined or characterized under comparable conditions or circumstances to those under assessment. Those skilled in the art will appreciate when sufficient similarities are present to justify reliance on and/or comparison to a particular possible reference or control.
Risk: As used herein, the term “risk” can refer to a risk of a disease, disorder, and/or condition, meaning a likelihood that a particular individual will develop the disease, disorder, and/or condition. In some embodiments, risk is expressed as a percentage. In some embodiments, risk is from 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 up to 100%. In some embodiments risk is expressed as a risk relative to a risk associated with a reference sample or group of reference samples. In some embodiments, a reference sample or group of reference samples have a known risk of a disease, disorder, condition and/or event. In some embodiments a reference sample or group of reference samples are from individuals comparable to a particular individual. In some embodiments, relative risk is measured as fold change, e.g., a 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, or more fold increase or decrease in risk.
Selective binding: As used herein, “selective binding,” “selectively binds” “specific binding,” or “specifically binds” refers, with respect to a binding moiety and a target, preferential association of a binding moiety to a target and not to an entity that is not the target. A certain degree of non-specific binding may occur between a binding moiety and a non-target. In some embodiments, a binding moiety selectively binds a target if binding between the binding moiety and the target is greater than 2-fold, greater than 5-fold, greater than 10-fold, or greater than 100-fold as compared with binding of the binding moiety and a non-target. In some embodiments, a binding moiety selectively binds a target if the binding affinity is less than about 10−5 M, less than about 10−6 M, less than about 10−7 M, less than about 10−8 M, or less than about 10−9 M.
Subject: The term “subject,” as used herein, means any subject for whom diagnosis, prognosis, or therapy is desired. For example, a subject can be an animal, e.g., a mammal, e.g., a human or non-human primate (such as an ape, monkey, orangutan, or chimpanzee), a dog, cat, guinea pig, rabbit, rat, mouse, horse, cattle, or cow.
Target: As used herein, a “target” is any molecule specifically bound by a binding moiety of a multi-specific binding molecule. In some embodiments, a target is an epitope antigen described herein.
Therapeutic agent: As used herein, the phrase “therapeutic agent” can refer to any agent that elicits a desired pharmacological effect when administered to an organism. In some embodiments, an agent is considered to be a therapeutic agent if it demonstrates a statistically significant effect across an appropriate population. In some embodiments, the appropriate population may be a population of model organisms. In some embodiments, an appropriate population may be defined by various criteria, such as a certain age group, gender, genetic background, preexisting clinical conditions, in accordance with presence or absence of a particular biomarker, etc. In some embodiments, a therapeutic agent is a substance that can be used to alleviate, ameliorate, relieve, inhibit, prevent, delay onset of, reduce severity of, and/or reduce incidence of one or more symptoms or features of a disease, disorder, and/or condition. In some embodiments, a therapeutic agent is an agent that has been or is required to be approved by a government agency before it can be marketed for administration to humans. In some embodiments, a therapeutic agent is an agent for which a medical prescription is required for administration to humans.
Therapeutically effective amount: As used herein, the term “therapeutically effective amount” refers to an amount of a therapeutic molecule (e.g., a therapeutic antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide described herein) which confers a therapeutic effect on a treated subject, at a reasonable benefit/risk ratio applicable to any medical treatment. The therapeutic effect may be objective (i.e., measurable by some test or marker) or subjective (i.e., subject gives an indication of or feels an effect). In particular, the “therapeutically effective amount” refers to an amount of a therapeutic molecule or composition effective to treat, ameliorate, or prevent a particular condition or disease, or to exhibit a detectable therapeutic or preventative effect, such as by ameliorating symptoms associated with the disease, preventing or delaying the onset of the disease, and/or also lessening the severity or frequency of symptoms of the disease. A therapeutically effective amount can be administered in a dosing regimen that may comprise multiple unit doses. For any particular therapeutic molecule, a therapeutically effective amount (and/or an appropriate unit dose within an effective dosing regimen) may vary, for example, depending on route of administration, on combination with other pharmaceutical agents. Also, the specific therapeutically effective amount (and/or unit dose) for any particular subject may depend upon a variety of factors including the disorder being treated and the severity of the disorder; the activity of the specific pharmaceutical agent employed; the specific composition employed; the age, body weight, general health, sex and diet of the subject; the time of administration, route of administration, and/or rate of excretion or metabolism of the specific therapeutic molecule employed; the duration of the treatment; and like factors as is well known in the medical arts.
Treatment: As used herein, the term “treatment” (also “treat” or “treating”) refers to any administration of a therapeutic molecule (e.g., a therapeutic antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide described herein) that partially or completely alleviates, ameliorates, relieves, inhibits, delays onset of, reduces severity of and/or reduces incidence of one or more symptoms or features of a particular disease, disorder, and/or condition. Such treatment may be of a subject who does not exhibit signs of the relevant disease, disorder and/or condition and/or of a subject who exhibits only early signs of the disease, disorder, and/or condition. Alternatively or additionally, such treatment may be of a subject who exhibits one or more established signs of the relevant disease, disorder and/or condition.
Treatment regimen: Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the term “treatment regimen” can be used to refer to a single dose of or a set, schedule, or series of two or more unit doses administered individually to a subject, e.g., separately administered to a subject, e.g., over a period of time. In some embodiments, a given molecule has a recommended treatment regimen, which may involve one or more doses. In some embodiments, a treatment regimen includes a plurality of doses separated in time from other doses. In some embodiments, individual doses are separated from one another by a time period of the same length; or by time periods of at least two different lengths. In some embodiments, all doses within a treatment regimen are of the same unit dose amount. In some embodiments, different doses within a treatment regimen are of different amounts.
Vector: As used herein, the term “vector” refers to a recipient nucleic acid molecule modified to include or incorporate a provided nucleic acid sequence. One type of vector is a “plasmid,” which refers to a circular double stranded DNA loop into which additional DNA segments may be ligated. Another type of vector is a viral vector, wherein additional DNA segments may be ligated into the viral genome. Certain vectors are capable of autonomous replication in a host cell into which they are introduced (e.g., bacterial vectors having a bacterial origin of replication and episomal mammalian vectors). Other vectors (e.g., non-episomal mammalian vectors) can be integrated into the genome of a host cell upon introduction into the host cell, and thereby are replicated along with the host genome. Moreover, certain vectors are capable of directing the expression of genes to which they are operatively linked. Such vectors are referred to herein as “expression vectors.” Standard techniques may be used for recombinant DNA, oligonucleotide synthesis, and tissue culture and transformation (e.g., electroporation, lipofection). Enzymatic reactions and purification techniques may be performed according to manufacturer's specifications or as commonly accomplished in the art or as described herein. The foregoing techniques and procedures may be generally performed according to conventional methods well known in the art and as described in various general and more specific references that are cited and discussed throughout the present specification. See e.g., Sambrook et al., Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual (2d ed., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y. (1989)), which is incorporated herein by reference for any purpose.
The present invention provides, among other things, an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide that binds or is capable of binding CD166, compositions including the same, and uses thereof. In certain embodiments, an anti-CD166 antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide of the present invention binds or is capable of binding all or a portion of an intracellular domain (“ICD”) of CD166. An antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide of the present invention that binds or is capable of binding all or a portion of an intracellular domain of CD166 can be referred to as an “anti-CD166 ICD antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide.” Portions thereof can be referred to accordingly, e.g., an anti-CD166 ICD CDR. The present invention also includes, among other things, a nucleic acid molecule encoding an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide that binds or is capable of binding CD166.
In various embodiments, an anti-CD166 antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide is useful in a method of detecting or treating a condition or disease. A method of detection as disclosed herein can be in vitro, e.g., with a sample derived from a subject, or in vivo. In some instances, an anti-CD166 antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide is useful in a method of detecting or treating cancer. In some instances, an anti-CD166 antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide is useful in a method of detecting or treating a condition or disease characterized by activated lymphocytes or activated monocytes (leukocytes).

Likewise, an antigen-binding polypeptide can be or include one or more of a heavy chain, light chain, heavy chain variable domain, light chain variable domain, or any of one or more portions thereof as described herein or otherwise known in the art. A heavy chain can include a heavy chain variable domain and a heavy chain constant domain. A heavy chain constant domain can include CH1, hinge, CH2, CH3, and in some instances CH4 regions. A light chain can include a light chain variable domain and a light chain constant domain. A light chain constant domain can include a CL. A heavy chain variable domain of a heavy chain and a light chain variable domain of a light chain can typically be further subdivided into regions of variability, termed complementarity determining regions (CDRs), interspersed with regions that are more conserved, termed framework regions (FR). Such heavy chain and light chain variable domains can each include three CDRs and four framework regions, arranged from amino-terminus to carboxyl-terminus in the following order: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4, one or more of which can have a sequence as described herein. Certain heavy chain regions can be designated as HFR1, HCDR1, HFR2, HCDR2, HFR3, HCDR3, HFR4. Certain light chain regions can be designated as LFR1, LCDR1, LFR2, LCDR2, LFR3, LCDR3, LFR4.
Certain systems have been established in the art for defining CDR boundaries (e.g., the Kabat system and the Chothia system). Those of skill in the art will be aware that selection of a CDR identifying system (e.g., the Kabat system or Chothia system) will impact the amino acid sequence of identified CDRs (and accordingly the sequences of CDR-encoding nucleic acids). Thus, the skilled artisan will appreciate that while the present disclosure may identify CDRs according to a particular system, the present disclosure encompasses those CDRs as may be identified by any alternative system.

In certain instances, a therapeutic antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide is an anti-PD-L1 antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide. In certain instances, a therapeutic anti-PD-L1 antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide is an activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide. In particular embodiments, a therapeutic anti-PD-L1 antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide is an anti-PD-L1 antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide (and/or an anti-PD-L1 activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide) associated with a therapeutic moiety.
In various instances, a therapeutic antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide is activatable. Broadly, an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide disclosed herein is activatable if the antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide is coupled to a masking moiety (MM) that reduces the ability of the antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide to specifically bind to target epitope when the activatable antibody is in an intact or uncleaved state. In some instances, the MM is coupled via a cleavable moiety (CM) that includes a substrate for a protease, for example, a protease that is active in diseased tissue and/or a protease that is co-localized with the target at a treatment site in a subject. When the activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide is in an “activated” or cleaved state, such as when the CM is cleaved by a protease, the antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide can specifically bind to its target epitope. Activatable antibodies and antigen-binding polypeptides, and methods of producing the same, are described, e.g., in International Publication No. WO 2009/025846 and International Publication No. WO 2010/081173, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
In various embodiments, a masking moiety is a peptide. In various embodiments, an activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide that includes a masking moiety includes an “activation moiety.” As used herein, an activation moiety is a moiety that mediates a transition between a non-activated state and activated state of an activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide. As used herein an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide is “activatable” in that the molecule can exhibit a first “non-activated” level of binding with a target epitope when in a “non-activated” state, and a second greater, “activated” level of binding when the molecule is in an “activated” state. Comparison of binding of an epitope by an activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide in a non-activated state and binding of an epitope by an activated form of an activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide can be made according to any standard of binding described herein or otherwise known in the art. Non-limiting measures of binding include, e.g., a measure according to an immunoabsorbant assay, or any other method of measuring binding as described herein. While it may be the case in certain particular embodiments that an activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide in a non-activated state does not bind, or substantially does not bind, a target epitope, it is to be understood that complete or substantially complete abrogation of binding in a non-activated state is not required. Masking moieties and use thereof are described, e.g., in International Publication No. WO 2009/025846 and International Publication No. WO 2010/081173, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirely.
In various embodiments, an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide and a masking moiety are joined by a linker. In various embodiments a linker is an activation linker (i.e., a linker that is or includes an activation moiety). In various embodiments, an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide and a masking moiety are joined by an activation linker that is or includes a cleavable moiety (CM). In certain instances in which an activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide includes a masking moiety joined to an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide by an activation linker that is or includes a cleavable moiety (a “cleavable linker”), a masking moiety can inhibit ability of an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide to bind a target epitope when the cleavable linker is in an uncleaved state, which inhibition is relieved if the cleavable linker is cleaved. Accordingly, in certain instances, cleavage of a cleavable moiety relieves inhibition by a masking moiety of ability of an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide to bind a target epitope. Linkers and use thereof are described, e.g., in International Publication No. WO 2009/025846 and International Publication No. WO 2010/081173, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
In various embodiments, without limitation, a masking moiety can be a moiety that binds a binding moiety of an activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide. In various embodiments, without limitation, a masking moiety can sterically inhibit ability of an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide to bind a target epitope. In various embodiments, without limitation, a masking moiety can allosterically inhibit ability of an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide to bind a target epitope.
In certain instances an activation linker is or includes a substrate capable of being specifically cleaved by an enzyme, protease, or peptidase. In certain instances, an activation linker is reducible by a reducing agent. In certain instances, an activation linker is a photo-sensitive substrate, photolysis of which relieves inhibition by a masking moiety of ability of an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide to bind a target epitope. As used herein cleavage is used interchangeably to denote activation by an enzyme, a reducing agent, or photolysis. It is also contemplated that a cleavable linker and a masking moiety can overlap in amino acid sequence, e.g., such that a cleavable linker is contained within a masking moiety. Cleavable linkers and use thereof are described, e.g., in International Publication No. WO 2009/025846 and International Publication No. WO 2010/081173, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
In various embodiments, an activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide includes an activation moiety that mediates a transition between a non-activated state and activated state of an activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide by undergoing, causing, or contributing to a conformation change in a masking moiety, or other conformational change in an activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide, that relieves inhibition by a masking moiety of ability of an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide to bind a target epitope. In various embodiments, access of a binding partner to the functional protein is greater in the presence of an enzyme/reducing agent/light capable of activating an activation linker than in the absence of activation and/or of such enzyme/reducing agent/light. Activation moieties and use thereof are described, e.g., in International Publication No. WO 2009/025846 and International Publication No. WO 2010/081173, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
An activation moiety included in an activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide can, in certain embodiments, be selected based on in vivo or in vitro localization (e.g., within or among cells, tissues, organs, or subjects) of a protease for cleavage of the activation moiety and/or activation of the activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide. For example, proteases expressed in certain tissues (e.g., cancerous tissues) include, without limitation, matrix metalloprotease (MMP), ADAM 17, BMP-1, a cysteine protease (e.g., cathepsin), HtrA1, legumain, matriptase (MT-SP1), neutrophil elastase, TMPRSS (e.g., TMPRSS3 or TMPRSS4), thrombin, or u-type plasminogen activator (uPA, also referred to as urokinase). Thus, in particular instances, an activation moiety can be or include a substrate of a protease selected from matrix metalloprotease (MMP), ADAM 17, BMP-1, a cysteine protease (e.g., cathepsin), HtrA1, legumain, matriptase (MT-SP1), neutrophil elastase, TMPRSS (e.g., TMPRSS3 or TMPRSS4), thrombin, or u-type plasminogen activator (uPA, also referred to as urokinase). In various instances, protease consensus target sequences are known in the art.
An activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide can be provided in any of a variety of structural configurations. For instance, it is contemplated that an antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide, masking moiety, and cleavable linker may be provided in that order as read from N-terminus to C-terminus, or as read from C-terminus to N-terminus.
Non-limiting examples of configurations of an activatable antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide include (from N-terminus to C-terminus): (a) [masking moiety]-[linker]-[antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide]; (b) [antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide]-[linker]-[masking moiety]; (c) [masking moiety]-[activation linker]-[antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide]; and/or (d) [antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide]-[activation linker]-[masking moiety]; (e) [masking moiety]-[antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide]; (f) [antibody or antigen-binding polypeptide]-[masking moiety];
While a masking moiety and a linker are represented in certain provided configurations as distinct components, it is to be understood that an amino acid sequence of a masking moiety and an amino acid sequence of a linker can, in at least some instances, overlap, e.g., such that the sequence of a cleavable linker is completely or partially within an amino acid sequence of a masking moiety. It is also to be understood that configurations provided herein are also contemplated in the orientation of C-terminus to N-terminus. Configurations of activatable antibodies and antigen-binding polypeptides are described, e.g., in International Publication No. WO 2009/025846 and International Publication No. WO 2010/081173, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

The following Examples demonstrate, among other things, identification, sequences, and application of certain anti-CD166 ICD antibodies or antigen-binding polypeptides as disclosed herein.
Studies provided herein were designed to generate certain anti-human CD166 (hCD166) mouse monoclonal antibodies of the present disclosure. Anti-hCD166 antibodies presented herein were generated against human CD166 in mice. Those of ordinary skill in the art appreciate the difficulty in raising anti-hCD166 antibodies in mice.
The anti-hCD166 mouse monoclonal antibodies of the present disclosure were obtained using mouse hybridoma technology. Two peptides derived from the C-terminal intracellular domain of human CD166 were conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) using maleimide chemistry. The two peptides corresponded to amino acid residues 550 to 569 (YMKKSKTASKHVNKDLGNME; “Peptide A”; SEQ ID NO: 64) and amino acid resides 565 to 583 (LGNMEENKKLEENNHKTEA; “Peptide B”; SEQ ID NO: 66) of human CD166. Each peptide also included an additional N-terminal cysteine residue to allow maleimide conjugation. In a first round, five mice were each immunized with both peptides. Three additional mice were later immunized in a second round with reduced amounts of the peptide antigens.
Of the five mice immunized in the first round, one mouse (Mouse #1) was assayed by a tailbleed screen to determine its antibody titer to both of the target peptides. Titer was determined by ELISA (100 ng/well of peptide A or B with 0.9 mg/mL BSA). The results of the first tailbleed of Mouse #1 are shown below in Table 1.
Of the three mice immunized in the second round, two mice (Mice #2 and #3) were assayed by a tailbleed screen to determine antibody titer to each of the target peptides (SEQ ID NO: 64 and SEQ ID NO: 66). Titer was determined by ELISA (200 ng/well of peptides A or B with 0.9 mg/mL BSA). The results of the first tailbleed of the two mice are shown below in Table 2.
Mouse #1 was boosted with reduced dosage of peptide A and B to raise the titer of the antibody. A second tailbleed assay was performed on Mouse #1 to determine its antibody titer against both of the target peptides. Titer was determined by ELISA (100 ng/well of peptides A or B with 0.9 mg/mL BSA). The results of the second tailbleed of Mouse #1 are shown below in Table 3.
B cells from each of Mouse #2 and Mouse #3 were fused in a combined manner to generate hybridomas in accordance with methods known in the art. Hybridomas were cloned and ˜1100 clone supernatants were screened against the each of the human CD166-derived peptides using a Direct EIA format using a goat anti-IgG gamma chain-specific secondary antibody coupled to horseradish peroxidase (HRP) (Millipore, Cat. No. AP503P. Following the initial screen, 136 clones were selected for a further confirmatory screen, of which forty (40) were selected for expansion. The expanded clones were assayed for mouse IgG levels using anti-mouse sensors in an Octet RED96 system (Pall ForteBio) and ELISA (200 ng/well of peptides A or B with 0.9 mg/mL BSA). Candidates included Ab1 (also referred to herein as “Example anti-CD166 ICD antibody 1”), Ab2 (also referred to herein as “Example anti-CD166 ICD antibody 2”), Ab3, Ab4, Ab5, Ab6, Ab7, and Ab8. Five candidates (Ab1, Ab2, Ab3, Ab4, and Ab5) shown below in Table 4 were selected.
Two of the candidate antibodies were sequenced. Representative sequences are as follows:
