Provided herein are antibodies with binding specificity for PD-1 and compositions comprising the antibodies, including pharmaceutical compositions, diagnostic compositions and kits. Also provided are methods of using anti-PD-1 antibodies for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes.
Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1, also known as CD279) is a cell surface protein molecule that belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. It is expressed on T and B lymphocytes and macrophages, and plays a role in cell fate and differentiation. See Ishida et al., EMBO J., 1992, 11:3887-3895, incorporated by reference in its entirety. Activation of PD-1 is thought to negatively regulate the immune response. See Blank et al., Cancer Immunol. Immunother., 2007, 56:739-745; and Freeman et al., J. Exp. Med., 2000, 192:1027-1034, each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
PD-1 has two known ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2, which are both members of the B7 family. See Freeman et al., supra; and Latchman et al., Nat. Immunol., 2001, 2:261-268, each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. The interaction between PD-1 and these ligands is thought to play a role in a variety of diseases, including cancer (see Ribas and Tumeh, Clin. Cancer Res., 2014, Jun. 26, PMID: 24970841 [Epub ahead of print]), autoimmune disease (see Dai et al., Cell Immunol., 2014, 290:72-79), and infection (see Day et al., Nature, 2006, 443:350-354). Each of the references cited in the preceding sentence is incorporated by reference in its entirety. In particular, the engagement of PD-1 by one of its ligands is thought to inhibit T-cell effector functions in an antigen-specific manner.
In view of the role of PD-1 in multiple disease processes, there is a need for improved methods of modulating the interaction of PD-1 with its ligands and the downstream signaling processes activated by PD-1. Moreover, given the role of PD-1 in several diseases, there is also a need for therapeutics that specifically target cells and tissues that express PD-1.
Provided herein are antibodies that selectively bind PD-1. In some embodiments, the antibodies bind human PD-1. In some embodiments, the antibodies also bind homologs of human PD-1. In some aspects, the homolog is a cynomolgus monkey homolog. In some aspects, the homolog is a murine homolog.

Unless otherwise defined, all terms of art, notations and other scientific terminology used herein are intended to have the meanings commonly understood by those of skill in the art to which this invention pertains. In some cases, terms with commonly understood meanings are defined herein for clarity and/or for ready reference, and the inclusion of such definitions herein should not necessarily be construed to represent a difference over what is generally understood in the art. The techniques and procedures described or referenced herein are generally well understood and commonly employed using conventional methodologies by those skilled in the art, such as, for example, the widely utilized molecular cloning methodologies described in Sambrook et al., Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual 2nd ed. (1989) Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y. As appropriate, procedures involving the use of commercially available kits and reagents are generally carried out in accordance with manufacturer defined protocols and/or parameters unless otherwise noted.
As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” include the plural referents unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
The term “about” indicates and encompasses an indicated value and a range above and below that value. In certain embodiments, the term “about” indicates the designated value ±10%, ±5%, or ±1%. In certain embodiments, the term “about” indicates the designated value ±one standard deviation of that value.
The term “combinations thereof” includes every possible combination of elements to which the term refers to. For example, a sentence stating that “if α2 is A, then α3 is not D; α5 is not S; or α6 is not S; or combinations thereof” includes the following combinations when α2 is A: (1) α3 is not D; (2) α5 is not S; (3) α6 is not S; (4) α3 is not D; α5 is not S; and α6 is not S; (5) α3 is not D and α5 is not S; (6) α3 is not D and α6 is not S; and (7) α5 is not S and α6 is not S.
The terms “PD-1” and “PD-1 antigen” are used interchangeably herein. Unless specified otherwise, the terms include any variants, isoforms and species homologs of human PD-1 that are naturally expressed by cells, or that are expressed by cells transfected with a PD-1 gene. PD-1 proteins include full-length PD-1 (e.g., human PD-1; GI: 167857792; SEQ ID NO: 1; extracellular domain: Pro21-Gln167), as well as alternative splice variants of PD-1, such as PD-1Δex2, PD-1Δex3, PD-1Δex2,3, and PD-1Δex2,3,4. See Nielsen et al., Cellular Immunology, 2005, 235:109-116, incorporated by reference in its entirety. In some embodiments, PD-1 proteins include murine PD-1 (e.g., SEQ ID NO: 299; extracellular domain: Leu25-Gln167). In some embodiments, PD-1 proteins include cynomolgus PD-1 (e.g., SEQ ID NO: 300; extracellular domain: Pro21-Gln167).
The term “immunoglobulin” refers to a class of structurally related proteins generally comprising two pairs of polypeptide chains: one pair of light (L) chains and one pair of heavy (H) chains. In an “intact immunoglobulin,” all four of these chains are interconnected by disulfide bonds. The structure of immunoglobulins has been well characterized. See, e.g., Paul, Fundamental Immunology 7th ed., Ch. 5 (2013) Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia, Pa. Briefly, each heavy chain typically comprises a heavy chain variable region (VH) and a heavy chain constant region (CH). The heavy chain constant region typically comprises three domains, CH1, CH2, and CH3. Each light chain typically comprises a light chain variable region (VL) and a light chain constant region. The light chain constant region typically comprises one domain, abbreviated CL.
The term “antibody” describes a type of immunoglobulin molecule and is used herein in its broadest sense. An antibody specifically includes intact antibodies (e.g., intact immunoglobulins), and antibody fragments. Antibodies comprise at least one antigen-binding domain. One example of an antigen-binding domain is an antigen binding domain formed by a VH-VL dimer. A “PD-1 antibody,” “anti-PD-1 antibody,” “PD-1 Ab,” “PD-1-specific antibody” or “anti-PD-1 Ab” is an antibody, as described herein, which binds specifically to the antigen PD-1. In some embodiments, the antibody binds the extracellular domain of PD-1.
The VH and VL regions may be further subdivided into regions of hypervariability (“hypervariable regions (HVRs);” also called “complementarity determining regions” (CDRs)) interspersed with regions that are more conserved. The more conserved regions are called framework regions (FRs). Each VH and VL generally comprises three CDRs and four FRs, arranged in the following order (from N-terminus to C-terminus): FR1 -CDR1 - FR2 - CDR2 - FR3 - CDR3 - FR4. The CDRs are involved in antigen binding, and confer antigen specificity and binding affinity to the antibody. See Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest 5th ed. (1991) Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md., incorporated by reference in its entirety.
The light chain from any vertebrate species can be assigned to one of two types, called kappa and lambda, based on the sequence of the constant domain.
The heavy chain from any vertebrate species can be assigned to one of five different classes (or isotypes): IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM. These classes are also designated α, δ, ε, γ, and μ, respectively. The IgG and IgA classes are further divided into subclasses on the basis of differences in sequence and function. Humans express the following subclasses: IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and IgA2.
The amino acid sequence boundaries of a CDR can be determined by one of skill in the art using any of a number of known numbering schemes, including those described by Kabat et al., supra (“Kabat” numbering scheme); Al-Lazikani et al., 1997, J. Mol. Biol., 273:927-948 (“Chothia” numbering scheme); MacCallum et al., 1996, J. Mol. Biol. 262:732-745 (“Contact” numbering scheme); Lefranc et al., Dev. Comp. Immunol., 2003, 27:55-77 (“IMGT” numbering scheme); and Honegge and Plückthun, J. Mol. Biol., 2001, 309:657-70 (“AHo” numbering scheme), each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
Table 1 provides the positions of CDR-L1, CDR-L2, CDR-L3, CDR-H1, CDR-H2, and CDR-H3 as identified by the Kabat and Chothia schemes. For CDR-H1, residue numbering is provided using both the Kabat and Chothia numbering schemes.
Unless otherwise specified, the numbering scheme used for identification of a particular CDR herein is the Kabat/Chothia numbering scheme. Where the residues encompassed by these two numbering schemes diverge, the numbering scheme is specified as either Kabat or Chothia.
The “EU numbering scheme” is generally used when referring to a residue in an antibody heavy chain constant region (e.g., as reported in Kabat et al., supra). Unless stated otherwise, the EU numbering scheme is used to refer to residues in antibody heavy chain constant regions described herein.
An “antibody fragment” comprises a portion of an intact antibody, such as the antigen binding or variable region of an intact antibody. Antibody fragments include, for example, Fv fragments, Fab fragments, F(ab′)2 fragments, Fab′ fragments, scFv (sFv) fragments, and scFv-Fc fragments.
“Fv” fragments comprise a non-covalently-linked dimer of one heavy chain variable domain and one light chain variable domain.
“Fab” fragments comprise, in addition to the heavy and light chain variable domains, the constant domain of the light chain and the first constant domain (CH1) of the heavy chain. Fab fragments may be generated, for example, by papain digestion of a full-length antibody.
“F(ab′)2” fragments contain two Fab′ fragments joined, near the hinge region, by disulfide bonds. F(ab′)2 fragments may be generated, for example, by pepsin digestion of an intact antibody. The F(ab′) fragments can be dissociated, for example, by treatment with ß-mercaptoethanol.
“Single-chain Fv” or “sFv” or “scFv” antibody fragments comprise a VH domain and a VL domain in a single polypeptide chain. The VH and VL are generally linked by a peptide linker. See Plückthun A. (1994). Antibodies from Escherichia coli. In Rosenberg M. & Moore G. P. (Eds.), The Pharmacology of Monoclonal Antibodies vol. 113 (pp. 269-315). Springer-Verlag, N.Y., incorporated by reference in its entirety. “scFv-Fc” fragments comprise an scFv attached to an Fc domain. For example, an Fc domain may be attached to the C-terminal of the scFv. The Fc domain may follow the VH or VL, depending on the orientation of the variable domains in the scFv (i.e., VH-VL or VL-VH). Any suitable Fc domain known in the art or described herein may be used. In some cases, the Fc domain is an IgGl Fc domain (e.g., SEQ ID NO: 295). In some embodiments, the linker is (G4S)3 (see SEQ ID NO: 298).
The term “monoclonal antibody” refers to an antibody from a population of substantially homogeneous antibodies. A population of substantially homogeneous antibodies comprises antibodies that are substantially similar and that bind the same epitope(s), except for variants that may normally arise during production of the monoclonal antibody. Such variants are generally present in only minor amounts. A monoclonal antibody is typically obtained by a process that includes the selection of a single antibody from a plurality of antibodies. For example, the selection process can be the selection of a unique clone from a plurality of clones, such as a pool of hybridoma clones, phage clones, yeast clones, bacterial clones, or other recombinant DNA clones. The selected antibody can be further altered, for example, to improve affinity for the target (“affinity maturation”), to humanize the antibody, to improve its production in cell culture, and/or to reduce its immunogenicity in a subject.
The term “chimeric antibody” refers to an antibody in which a portion of the heavy and/or light chain is derived from a particular source or species, while the remainder of the heavy and/or light chain is derived from a different source or species.
“Humanized” forms of non-human antibodies are chimeric antibodies that contain minimal sequence derived from the non-human antibody. A humanized antibody is generally a human immunoglobulin (recipient antibody) in which residues from one or more CDRs are replaced by residues from one or more CDRs of a non-human antibody (donor antibody). The donor antibody can be any suitable non-human antibody, such as a mouse, rat, rabbit, chicken, or non-human primate antibody having a desired specificity, affinity, or biological effect. In some instances, selected framework region residues of the recipient antibody are replaced by the corresponding framework region residues from the donor antibody. Humanized antibodies may also comprise residues that are not found in either the recipient antibody or the donor antibody. Such modifications may be made to further refine antibody function. For further details, see Jones et al., Nature, 1986, 321:522-525; Riechmann et al., Nature, 1988, 332:323-329; and Presta, Curr. Op. Struct. Biol., 1992, 2:593-596, each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
A “human antibody” is one which possesses an amino acid sequence corresponding to that of an antibody produced by a human or a human cell, or derived from a non-human source that utilizes a human antibody repertoire or human antibody-encoding sequences (e.g., obtained from human sources or designed de novo). Human antibodies specifically exclude humanized antibodies.
An “isolated antibody” is one that has been separated and/or recovered from a component of its natural environment. Components of the natural environment may include enzymes, hormones, and other proteinaceous or nonproteinaceous materials. In some embodiments, an isolated antibody is purified to a degree sufficient to obtain at least 15 residues of N-terminal or internal amino acid sequence, for example by use of a spinning cup sequenator. In some embodiments, an isolated antibody is purified to homogeneity by gel electrophoresis (e.g., SDS-PAGE) under reducing or nonreducing conditions, with detection by Coomassie blue or silver stain. An isolated antibody includes an antibody in situ within recombinant cells, since at least one component of the antibody's natural environment is not present. In some aspects, an isolated antibody is prepared by at least one purification step.
In some embodiments, an isolated antibody is purified to at least 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 99% by weight. In some embodiments, an isolated antibody is provided as a solution comprising at least 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, 99% to 100% by weight of an antibody, the remainder of the weight comprising the weight of other solutes dissolved in the solvent.
“Affinity” refers to the strength of the sum total of non-covalent interactions between a single binding site of a molecule (e.g., an antibody) and its binding partner (e.g., an antigen). Unless indicated otherwise, as used herein, “binding affinity” refers to intrinsic binding affinity, which reflects a 1:1 interaction between members of a binding pair (e.g., antibody and antigen). The affinity of a molecule X for its partner Y can generally be represented by the dissociation constant (KD). Affinity can be measured by common methods known in the art, including those described herein. Affinity can be determined, for example, using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology, such as a Biacore® instrument.
With regard to the binding of an antibody to a target molecule, the terms “specific binding,” “specifically binds to,” “specific for,” “selectively binds,” and “selective for” a particular antigen (e.g., a polypeptide target) or an epitope on a particular antigen mean binding that is measurably different from a non-specific or non-selective interaction. Specific binding can be measured, for example, by determining binding of a molecule compared to binding of a control molecule. Specific binding can also be determined by competition with a control molecule that is similar to the target, such as an excess of non-labeled target. In that case, specific binding is indicated if the binding of the labeled target to a probe is competitively inhibited by the excess non-labeled target.
The term “kd” (sec−1), as used herein, refers to the dissociation rate constant of a particular antibody-antigen interaction. This value is also referred to as the koff value.
The term “ka” (M−1×sec−1), as used herein, refers to the association rate constant of a particular antibody-antigen interaction. This value is also referred to as the kon value.
The term “KD” (M), as used herein, refers to the dissociation equilibrium constant of a particular antibody-antigen interaction. KD=kd/ka.
The term “KA” (M−1), as used herein, refers to the association equilibrium constant of a particular antibody-antigen interaction. KA=ka/kd.
An “affinity matured” antibody is one with one or more alterations in one or more CDRs or FRs that result in an improvement in the affinity of the antibody for its antigen, compared to a parent antibody which does not possess the alteration(s). In one embodiment, an affinity matured antibody has nanomolar or picomolar affinity for the target antigen. Affinity matured antibodies may be produced using a variety of methods known in the art. For example, Marks et al. (Bio/Technology, 1992, 10:779-783, incorporated by reference in its entirety) describes affinity maturation by VH and VL domain shuffling. Random mutagenesis of CDR and/or framework residues is described by, for example, Barbas et al. (Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1994, 91:3809-3813); Schier et al., Gene, 1995, 169:147-155; Yelton et al., J. Immunol., 1995, 155:1994-2004; Jackson et al., J. Immunol., 1995, 154:3310-33199; and Hawkins et al, J. Mol. Biol., 1992, 226:889-896, each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
When used herein in the context of two or more antibodies, the term “competes with” or “cross-competes with” indicates that the two or more antibodies compete for binding to an antigen (e.g., PD-1). In one exemplary assay, PD-1 is coated on a plate and allowed to bind a first antibody, after which a second, labeled antibody is added. If the presence of the first antibody reduces binding of the second antibody, then the antibodies compete. The term “competes with” also includes combinations of antibodies where one antibody reduces binding of another antibody, but where no competition is observed when the antibodies are added in the reverse order. However, in some embodiments, the first and second antibodies inhibit binding of each other, regardless of the order in which they are added. In some embodiments, one antibody reduces binding of another antibody to its antigen by at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, or at least 90%.
The term “epitope” means a portion of an antigen capable of specific binding to an antibody. Epitopes frequently consist of surface-accessible amino acid residues and/or sugar side chains and may have specific three dimensional structural characteristics, as well as specific charge characteristics. Conformational and non-conformational epitopes are distinguished in that the binding to the former but not the latter is lost in the presence of denaturing solvents. An epitope may comprise amino acid residues that are directly involved in the binding, and other amino acid residues, which are not directly involved in the binding. The epitope to which an antibody binds can be determined using known techniques for epitope determination such as, for example, testing for antibody binding to PD-1 variants with different point-mutations.
Percent “identity” between a polypeptide sequence and a reference sequence, is defined as the percentage of amino acid residues in the polypeptide sequence that are identical to the amino acid residues in the reference sequence, after aligning the sequences and introducing gaps, if necessary, to achieve the maximum percent sequence identity. Alignment for purposes of determining percent amino acid sequence identity can be achieved in various ways that are within the skill in the art, for instance, using publicly available computer software such as BLAST, BLAST-2, ALIGN, MEGALIGN (DNASTAR), CLUSTALW, or CLUSTAL OMEGA software. Those skilled in the art can determine appropriate parameters for aligning sequences, including any algorithms needed to achieve maximal alignment over the full length of the sequences being compared.
A “conservative substitution” or a “conservative amino acid substitution,” refers to the substitution of one or more amino acids with one or more chemically or functionally similar amino acids. Conservative substitution tables providing similar amino acids are well known in the art. Polypeptide sequences having such substitutions are known as “conservatively modified variants.” Such conservatively modified variants are in addition to and do not exclude polymorphic variants, interspecies homologs, and alleles. By way of example, the following groups of amino acids are considered conservative substitutions for one another.
Additional conservative substitutions may be found, for example, in Creighton, Proteins: Structures and Molecular Properties 2nd ed. (1993) W. H. Freeman & Co., New York, N.Y. An antibody generated by making one or more conservative substitutions of amino acid residues in a parent antibody is referred to as a “conservatively modified variant.”
The term “amino acid” refers to the twenty common naturally occurring amino acids. Naturally occurring amino acids include alanine (Ala; A), arginine (Arg; R), asparagine (Asn; N), aspartic acid (Asp; D), cysteine (Cys; C); glutamic acid (Glu; E), glutamine (Gln; Q), Glycine (Gly; G); histidine (His; H), isoleucine (Ile; I), leucine (Leu; L), lysine (Lys; K), methionine (Met; M), phenylalanine (Phe; F), proline (Pro; P), serine (Ser; S), threonine (Thr; T), tryptophan (Trp; W), tyrosine (Tyr; Y), and valine (Val; V).
“Treating” or “treatment” of any disease or disorder refers, in certain embodiments, to ameliorating a disease or disorder that exists in a subject. In another embodiment, “treating” or “treatment” includes ameliorating at least one physical parameter, which may be indiscernible by the subject. In yet another embodiment, “treating” or “treatment” includes modulating the disease or disorder, either physically (e.g., stabilization of a discernible symptom) or physiologically (e.g., stabilization of a physical parameter) or both. In yet another embodiment, “treating” or “treatment” includes delaying or preventing the onset of the disease or disorder.
As used herein, the term “therapeutically effective amount” or “effective amount” refers to an amount of an antibody or composition that when administered to a subject is effective to treat a disease or disorder.
As used herein, the term “subject” means a mammalian subject. Exemplary subjects include, but are not limited to humans, monkeys, dogs, cats, mice, rats, cows, horses, camels, avians, goats and sheep. In certain embodiments, the subject is a human. In some embodiments, the subject has cancer, an autoimmune disease or condition, and/or an infection that can be treated with an antibody provided herein. In some embodiments, the subject is a human that is suspected to have cancer, an autoimmune disease or condition, and/or an infection.

In some embodiments, the anti-PD-1 antibodies induce the secretion of interferon gamma when added to a PBMC cytomegalovirus recall assay, as described in Example 16.
In some embodiments, the anti-PD-1 antibodies accelerate the onset of graft versus host disease, as shown in Example 18.
In certain embodiments, an antibody may be altered to increase, decrease or eliminate the extent to which it is glycosylated. Glycosylation of polypeptides is typically either “N-linked” or “O-linked.”
“N-linked” glycosylation refers to the attachment of a carbohydrate moiety to the side chain of an asparagine residue. The tripeptide sequences asparagine-X-serine and asparagine-X-threonine, where X is any amino acid except proline, are the recognition sequences for enzymatic attachment of the carbohydrate moiety to the asparagine side chain. Thus, the presence of either of these tripeptide sequences in a polypeptide creates a potential glycosylation site.
“O-linked” glycosylation refers to the attachment of one of the sugars N-acetylgalactosamine, galactose, or xylose to a hydroxyamino acid, most commonly serine or threonine, although 5-hydroxyproline or 5-hydroxylysine may also be used.
Addition or deletion of N-linked glycosylation sites to the antibody may be accomplished by altering the amino acid sequence such that one or more of the above-described tripeptide sequences is created or removed. Addition or deletion of O-linked glycosylation sites may be accomplished by addition, deletion, or substitution of one or more serine or threonine residues in or to (as the case may be) the sequence of an antibody.
In certain embodiments, amino acid modifications may be introduced into the Fc region of an antibody provided herein to generate an Fc region variant. In certain embodiments, the Fc region variant possesses some, but not all, effector functions. Such antibodies may be useful, for example, in applications in which the half-life of the antibody in vivo is important, yet certain effector functions are unnecessary or deleterious. Examples of effector functions include complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) and antibody-directed complement-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). Numerous substitutions or substitutions or deletions with altered effector function are known in the art.
An alteration in in CDC and/or ADCC activity can be confirmed using in vitro and/or in vivo assays. For example, Fc receptor (FcR) binding assays can be conducted to measure FcγR binding. The primary cells for mediating ADCC, NK cells, express FcγRIII only, whereas monocytes express FcγRI, FcγRII and FcγRIII. FcR expression on hematopoietic cells is summarized in Ravetch and Kinet, Ann. Rev. Immunol., 1991, 9:457-492.
Non-limiting examples of in vitro assays to assess ADCC activity of a molecule of interest are provided in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,500,362 and 5,821,337; Hellstrom et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1986, 83:7059-7063; Hellstrom et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1985, 82:1499-1502; and Bruggemann et al., J. Exp. Med., 1987, 166:1351-1361. Useful effector cells for such assays include peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and Natural Killer (NK) cells. Alternatively, or additionally, ADCC activity of the molecule of interest may be assessed in vivo, using an animal model such as that disclosed in Clynes et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1998, 95:652-656.
C1q binding assays may also be carried out to confirm that the antibody is unable to bind C1q and hence lacks CDC activity. Examples of C1q binding assays include those described in WO 2006/029879 and WO 2005/100402.
Complement activation assays include those described, for example, in
Gazzano-Santoro et al., J. Immunol. Methods, 1996, 202:163-171; Cragg et al., Blood, 2003, 101:1045-1052; and Cragg and Glennie, Blood, 2004, 103:2738-2743.
FcRn binding and in vivo clearance (half-life determination) can also be measured, for example, using the methods described in Petkova et al., Intl. Immunol., 2006, 18:1759-1769.
9.1. Antigen Preparation
The PD-1 antigen to be used for production of antibodies may be intact PD-1 or a fragment of PD-1. The intact PD-1, or fragment of PD-1, may be in the form of an isolated protein or expressed by a cell. Other forms of PD-1 useful for generating antibodies will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
9.2. Monoclonal Antibodies
Monoclonal antibodies may be obtained, for example, using the hybridoma method first described by Kohler et al., Nature, 1975, 256:495-497, and/or by recombinant DNA methods (see e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,567). Monoclonal antibodies may also be obtained, for example, using phage or yeast-based libraries. See e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos. 8,258,082 and 8,691,730.
In the hybridoma method, a mouse or other appropriate host animal is immunized to elicit lymphocytes that produce or are capable of producing antibodies that will specifically bind to the protein used for immunization. Alternatively, lymphocytes may be immunized in vitro. Lymphocytes are then fused with myeloma cells using a suitable fusing agent, such as polyethylene glycol, to form a hybridoma cell. See Goding J. W., Monoclonal Antibodies: Principles and Practice 3rd ed. (1986) Academic Press, San Diego, Calif.
The hybridoma cells are seeded and grown in a suitable culture medium that contains one or more substances that inhibit the growth or survival of the unfused, parental myeloma cells. For example, if the parental myeloma cells lack the enzyme hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT or HPRT), the culture medium for the hybridomas typically will include hypoxanthine, aminopterin, and thymidine (HAT medium), which substances prevent the growth of HGPRT-deficient cells.
Useful myeloma cells are those that fuse efficiently, support stable high-level production of antibody by the selected antibody-producing cells, and are sensitive media conditions, such as the presence or absence of HAT medium. Among these, preferred myeloma cell lines are murine myeloma lines, such as those derived from MOP-21 and MC-11 mouse tumors (available from the Salk Institute Cell Distribution Center, San Diego, Calif.), and SP-2 or X63-Ag8-653 cells (available from the American Type Culture Collection, Rockville, Md.). Human myeloma and mouse-human heteromyeloma cell lines also have been described for the production of human monoclonal antibodies. See e.g., Kozbor, J. Immunol., 1984, 133:3001.
After the identification of hybridoma cells that produce antibodies of the desired specificity, affinity, and/or biological activity, selected clones may be subcloned by limiting dilution procedures and grown by standard methods. See Goding, supra. Suitable culture media for this purpose include, for example, D-MEM or RPMI-1640 medium. In addition, the hybridoma cells may be grown in vivo as ascites tumors in an animal.
DNA encoding the monoclonal antibodies may be readily isolated and sequenced using conventional procedures (e.g., by using oligonucleotide probes that are capable of binding specifically to genes encoding the heavy and light chains of the monoclonal antibodies). Thus, the hybridoma cells can serve as a useful source of DNA encoding antibodies with the desired properties. Once isolated, the DNA may be placed into expression vectors, which are then transfected into host cells such as bacteria (e.g., E. coli), yeast (e.g., Saccharomyces or Pichia sp.), COS cells, Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, or myeloma cells that do not otherwise produce antibody, to produce the monoclonal antibodies.
9.3. Humanized Antibodies
Humanized antibodies may be generated by replacing most, or all, of the structural portions of a monoclonal antibody with corresponding human antibody sequences. Consequently, a hybrid molecule is generated in which only the antigen-specific variable, or CDR, is composed of non-human sequence. Methods to obtain humanized antibodies include those described in, for example, Winter and Milstein, Nature, 1991, 349:293-299; Rader et al., Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1998, 95:8910-8915; Steinberger et al., J. Biol. Chem., 2000, 275:36073-36078; Queen et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1989, 86:10029-10033; and U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,585,089, 5,693,761, 5,693,762, and 6,180,370.
9.4. Human Antibodies
Human antibodies can be generated by a variety of techniques known in the art, for example by using transgenic animals (e.g., humanized mice). See, e.g., Jakobovits et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1993, 90:2551; Jakobovits et al., Nature, 1993, 362:255-258; Bruggermann et al., Year in Immuno., 1993, 7:33; and U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,591,669, 5,589,369 and 5,545,807. Human antibodies can also be derived from phage-display libraries (see e.g., Hoogenboom et al., J. Mol. Biol., 1991, 227:381-388; Marks et al., J. Mol. Biol., 1991, 222:581-597; and U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,565,332 and 5,573,905). Human antibodies may also be generated by in vitro activated B cells (see e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,567,610 and 5,229,275). Human antibodies may also be derived from yeast-based libraries (see e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 8,691,730).
The invention also provides isolated nucleic acids encoding anti-PD-1 antibodies, vectors and host cells comprising the nucleic acids, and recombinant techniques for the production of the antibodies.
For recombinant production of the antibody, the nucleic acid encoding it may be isolated and inserted into a replicable vector for further cloning (i.e., amplification of the DNA) or expression. In some aspects, the nucleic acid may be produced by homologous recombination, for example as described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,204,244.
Many different vectors are known in the art. The vector components generally include, but are not limited to, one or more of the following: a signal sequence, an origin of replication, one or more marker genes, an enhancer element, a promoter, and a transcription termination sequence, for example as described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,534,615.
Illustrative examples of suitable host cells are provided below. these host cells are not meant to be limiting.
Suitable host cells include any prokaryotic (e.g., bacterial), lower eukaryotic (e.g., yeast), or higher eukaryotic (e.g., mammalian) cells. Suitable prokaryotes include eubacteria, such as Gram-negative or Gram-positive organisms, for example, Enterobacteriaceae such as Escherichia (E. coli), Enterobacter, Erwinia, Klebsiella, Proteus, Salmonella (S. typhimurium), Serratia (S. marcescans), Shigella, Bacilli (B. subtilis and B. licheniformis), Pseudomonas (P. aeruginosa), and Streptomyces. One useful E. coli cloning host is E. coli 294, although other strains such as E. coli B, E. coli X1776, and E. coli W3110 are suitable.
In addition to prokaryotes, eukaryotic microbes such as filamentous fungi or yeast are also suitable cloning or expression hosts for anti-PD-1 antibody-encoding vectors. Saccharomyces cerevisiae, or common baker's yeast, is a commonly used lower eukaryotic host microorganism. However, a number of other genera, species, and strains are available and useful, such as Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Kluyveromyces (K. lactis, K. fragilis, K bulgaricus K. wickeramii, K. waltii, K. drosophilarum, K. thermotolerans, and K. marxianus), Yarrowia, Pichia pastoris, Candida (C. albicans), Trichoderma reesia, Neurospora crassa, Schwanniomyces (S. occidentalis), and filamentous fungi such as, for example Penicillium, Tolypocladium, and Aspergillus (A. nidulans and A. niger).
Useful mammalian host cells include COS-7 cells, HEK293 cells; baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells; Chinese hamster ovary (CHO); mouse sertoli cells; African green monkey kidney cells (VERO-76), and the like.
The host cells used to produce the anti-PD-1 antibody of this invention may be cultured in a variety of media. Commercially available media such as, for example, Ham's F10, Minimal Essential Medium (MEM), RPMI-1640, and Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) are suitable for culturing the host cells. In addition, any of the media described in Ham et al., Meth. Enz., 1979, 58:44; Barnes et al., Anal. Biochem., 1980, 102:255; and U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,767,704, 4,657,866, 4,927,762, 4,560,655, and 5,122,469, or WO 90/03430 and WO 87/00195 may be used.
Any of these media may be supplemented as necessary with hormones and/or other growth factors (such as insulin, transferrin, or epidermal growth factor), salts (such as sodium chloride, calcium, magnesium, and phosphate), buffers (such as HEPES), nucleotides (such as adenosine and thymidine), antibiotics, trace elements (defined as inorganic compounds usually present at final concentrations in the micromolar range), and glucose or an equivalent energy source. Any other necessary supplements may also be included at appropriate concentrations that would be known to those skilled in the art.
The culture conditions, such as temperature, pH, and the like, are those previously used with the host cell selected for expression, and will be apparent to the ordinarily skilled artisan.
When using recombinant techniques, the antibody can be produced intracellularly, in the periplasmic space, or directly secreted into the medium. If the antibody is produced intracellularly, as a first step, the particulate debris, either host cells or lysed fragments, is removed, for example, by centrifugation or ultrafiltration. For example, Carter et al. (Bio/Technology, 1992, 10:163-167) describes a procedure for isolating antibodies which are secreted to the periplasmic space of E. coli. Briefly, cell paste is thawed in the presence of sodium acetate (pH 3.5), EDTA, and phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride (PMSF) over about 30 min. Cell debris can be removed by centrifugation.
In some embodiments, the antibody is produced in a cell-free system. In some aspects, the cell-free system is an in vitro transcription and translation system as described in Yin et al., mAbs, 2012, 4:217-225, incorporated by reference in its entirety. In some aspects, the cell-free system utilizes a cell-free extract from a eukaryotic cell or from a prokaryotic cell. In some aspects, the prokaryotic cell is E. coli. Cell-free expression of the antibody may be useful, for example, where the antibody accumulates in a cell as an insoluble aggregate, or where yields from periplasmic expression are low.
Where the antibody is secreted into the medium, supernatants from such expression systems are generally first concentrated using a commercially available protein concentration filter, for example, an Amicon® or Millipore® Pellcon® ultrafiltration unit. A protease inhibitor such as PMSF may be included in any of the foregoing steps to inhibit proteolysis and antibiotics may be included to prevent the growth of adventitious contaminants.
The antibody composition prepared from the cells can be purified using, for example, hydroxylapatite chromatography, gel electrophoresis, dialysis, and affinity chromatography, with affinity chromatography being a particularly useful purification technique. The suitability of protein A as an affinity ligand depends on the species and isotype of any immunoglobulin Fc domain that is present in the antibody. Protein A can be used to purify antibodies that are based on human γ1, γ2, or γ4 heavy chains (Lindmark et al., J. Immunol. Meth., 1983, 62:1-13). Protein G is useful for all mouse isotypes and for human γ3 (Guss et al., EMBO J., 1986, 5:1567-1575).
The matrix to which the affinity ligand is attached is most often agarose, but other matrices are available. Mechanically stable matrices such as controlled pore glass or poly(styrenedivinyl)benzene allow for faster flow rates and shorter processing times than can be achieved with agarose. Where the antibody comprises a CH3 domain, the BakerBond ABX® resin is useful for purification.
Other techniques for protein purification, such as fractionation on an ion-exchange column, ethanol precipitation, Reverse Phase HPLC, chromatography on silica, chromatography on heparin Sepharose®, chromatofocusing, SDS-PAGE, and ammonium sulfate precipitation are also available, and can be applied by one of skill in the art.
Following any preliminary purification step(s), the mixture comprising the antibody of interest and contaminants may be subjected to low pH hydrophobic interaction chromatography using an elution buffer at a pH between about 2.5 to about 4.5, generally performed at low salt concentrations (e.g., from about 0 to about 0.25 M salt).

An anhydrous pharmaceutical composition should be prepared and stored such that its anhydrous nature is maintained. Accordingly, anhydrous compositions can be packaged using materials known to prevent exposure to water such that they can be included in suitable formulary kits. Examples of suitable packaging include, but are not limited to, hermetically sealed foils, plastics, unit dose containers (e.g., vials), blister packs, and strip packs.
11.1. Parenteral Dosage Forms
In certain embodiments, provided are parenteral dosage forms. Parenteral dosage forms can be administered to subjects by various routes including, but not limited to, subcutaneous, intravenous (including bolus injection), intramuscular, and intraarterial. Because their administration typically bypasses subjects' natural defenses against contaminants, parenteral dosage forms are typically, sterile or capable of being sterilized prior to administration to a subject. Examples of parenteral dosage forms include, but are not limited to, solutions ready for injection, dry products ready to be dissolved or suspended in a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle for injection, suspensions ready for injection, and emulsions.

11.2. Dosage and Unit Dosage Forms
In human therapeutics, the doctor will determine the posology which he considers most appropriate according to a preventive or curative treatment and according to the age, weight, condition and other factors specific to the subject to be treated.
The amount of the antibody or composition which will be effective in the prevention or treatment of a disorder or one or more symptoms thereof will vary with the nature and severity of the disease or condition, and the route by which the antibody is administered. The frequency and dosage will also vary according to factors specific for each subject depending on the specific therapy (e.g., therapeutic or prophylactic agents) administered, the severity of the disorder, disease, or condition, the route of administration, as well as age, body, weight, response, and the past medical history of the subject. Effective doses may be extrapolated from dose-response curves derived from in vitro or animal model test systems.

Antibody Fab or scFv libraries were constructed using a standard overlap extension PCR protocol with mutagenic primers targeting CDRs. See Heckman and Pease, Nat. Protoc., 2007, 2:924-932, incorporated by reference in its entirety. Selections for novel antibodies were performed using standard ribosome display protocols. See Dreir and Plückthun, Methods Mol. Biol., 2011, Clifton, N.J., 687:283-306, incorporated by reference in its entirety. Specifically, scFv-based selection formats were performed according to published protocols. See Hanes and Plückthun, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 1997, 94:4937-4942, incorporated by reference in its entirety. After multiple rounds of selection, the DNA from RT-PCR output was cloned into an optimized vector for cell-free expression using standard molecular biology techniques. See Yin et al., mAbs, 2012, 4:217-225, incorporated by reference in its entirety. All constructs were HIS- and FLAG-tagged to streamline purification and testing during screening.
Libraries of antibody variants isolated by the selections were transformed into E. coli and grown on agar plates with antibiotic (kanamycin). Individual colonies were picked and grown in liquid broth (TB+kanamycin), and used as a template for DNA amplification via rolling circle amplification (RCA). The variants were then expressed in a cell-free protein synthesis reaction as described in Zawada et al. (Biotechnol. Bioeng., 2011, 108:1570-1578, incorporated by reference in its entirety).
Briefly, cell-free extracts were treated with 50 μM iodoacetamide for 30 minutes at room temperature (RT; 20° C.) and added to a premix containing cell-free reaction components (see Groff et al., mAbs, 2014, 6:671-678, incorporated by reference in its entirety) and 10% (v/v) RCA DNA template (approximately 10 μg/mL DNA) for variants of interest. Cell free reactions, at a final volume of 60 μL, were incubated at 30° C. for 12 h on a shaker at 650 rpm in 96-well plates. Four hundred to one-thousand-five-hundred colonies were screened, depending on the predicted diversity of the libraries used in the different selection campaigns. Following synthesis, each reaction was diluted 1:50 into PBST (PBS at pH 7.4 with 0.2% Tween−20+0.2% BSA) and the variants expressed in each reaction were tested for functional activity via ELISA-based binding to recombinant human PD-1 (ACROBiosystems, Inc., Catalog No. PD1-H5221 or SINO Biological Inc. Catalog No. 10377-H08H).
Standard ELISA-based methods were employed. Specifically, 384-well plates were coated with 2 μg/mL recombinant PD-1 diluted in bicarbonate buffer, and then blocked with BSA. Antibody variants of interest were allowed to bind to the PD-1-coated plates, and detected with secondary antibodies (e.g., HRP-conjugated anti-human Fc or anti-FLAG) and then detected with chemiluminescent substrate (Pierce ELISA SuperSignal™ Substrate). Plates were analyzed on a Molecular Devices SpectraMax® M5 plate reader. Top hits were selected based on ELISA signal or signal/noise ratio and sequenced. Based on functional activity and sequence analysis, a subset of variants was selected for further scale-up and characterization.
The top leads from the initial round of screening were cultured and plasmids encoding the antibody genes of interest were isolated using a QIAprep 96 Turbo® Miniprep Kit (Qiagen) according to the manufacturer's instructions. DNA was added to 4 mL of cell-free reaction medium to achieve a final concentration of 10 μg/mL. The cell-free reaction medium was then incubated overnight for 12 hr at 30° C., at 650 rpm.
The expressed variants from clarified cell-free reactions were purified via immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) using a semi-automated high throughput batch purification method. Briefly, purifications were performed in a 96-well plate format where 50 μL/well of IMAC resin (Ni Sepharose® High Performance, GE Healthcare) was equilibrated in IMAC binding buffer (50 mM Tris pH 8.0, 300 mM NaCl, 10 mM imidazole), incubated with 1 mL cell-free reaction for 15 minutes, followed by two washes in IMAC binding buffer. His-tagged antibody variants were then eluted using 200 μL IMAC elution buffer (50 mM Tris pH 8.0, 300 mM NaCl, 500 mM imidazole), and buffer exchanged into PBS using a 96-well Zeba™ plate (7 kDa MWCO, Thermo Fisher). Purified antibodies were quantified via high throughput capillary electrophoresis using the LabChip GXII® (Perkin Elmer) against a trastuzumab standard curve, according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Balb/C mice were immunized with the extracellular domain of human PD-1 fused with human Fc (R&D Systems, supra) using standard immunization methods. The spleens and/or lymph nodes of the mice were harvested and fused with P3X cells to generate the hybridomas (Aragen Biosciences, Morgan Hill, Calif.), similar to what has been previously described. See Chronopoulou et al., Methods Mol. Biol., 2014, 1131:47-70; and Kim et al., Methods Mol. Biol., 2014, 1131:33-45, each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
Total RNA was extracted from hybridoma cells using an RNeasy® Mini Kit (Qiagen) and converted to cDNA using a SMARTer™ RACE cDNA Amplification Kit (Clontech). Positive clones were identified by gel electrophoresis, cloned using a TOPO® kit (Invitrogen), and sequenced using standard Sanger methods.
Mouse single-chain antibodies were constructed by using total gene synthesis using codons optimized for E. coli. The genes encoding the antibodies were cloned into a standard cell-free expression vector. See Yin et al., mAbs, 2012, 4:217-225, incorporated by reference in its entirety.
The CDRs from mlE9 were grafted onto human antibody frameworks VH3-21, VH3-7, Vκ1-9, and Vκ3-11 by standard methodology to yield humanized antibodies h1E9-1, h1E9-2, h1E9-4, and h1E9-5. See Kuramochi et al., Methods Mole. Biol., 2014, 1060:123-137, incorporated by reference in its entirety. The same method was used to graft the CDRs from m4B10 onto human antibody frameworks VH3-15, Vκ3-11, Vκ3-20, and Wκ4-1 to yield humanized antibodies h4B10-1, h4B10-2, and h4B10-3.
Human PD-1 (ACROBiosystems, Inc., Catalog No. PD1-H5221), cynomolgus PD-1 (ACROBiosystems, Inc., Catalog No. PD1-H5254), and murine PD-1 (R&D Systems Inc., Catalog No. 1021-PD-100) were used, as indicated, for kinetic analysis.
Monoclonal anti-FLAG M2 IgG (Sigma-Aldrich # F9291) was immobilized onto a CMS chip (GE Life Sciences) using amine coupling chemistry (from Amine Coupling Kit, GE Life Sciences). The immobilization steps were carried out at a flow rate of 25 μl/min in 1× HBS-EP+buffer (GE Life Sciences; 10× Stock diluted before use). The sensor surfaces were activated for 7 min with a mixture of NHS (0.05 M) and EDC (0.2 M). The Anti-FLAG M2 IgG was injected over all 4 flow cells at a concentration of 25 μg/ml in 10 mM sodium acetate, pH 4.5, for 7 min. Ethanolamine (1 M, pH 8.5) was injected for 7 min to block any remaining activated groups. An average of 12,000 response units (RU) of capture antibody was immobilized on each flow cell.
Off-rate and kinetic binding experiments were performed at 25° C. using 1× HBS-EP+buffer. Test and control antibodies were injected over the Anti-FLAG surface at concentrations of 5-10 μg/mL for 12 seconds at a flow rate of 10 μl/min on flow cells 2, 3 and 4, followed by a buffer wash for 30 seconds at the same flow rate. Kinetic characterization of antibody samples was carried out with a single concentration of antigen (for off-rate ranking) or a 1:2 dilution series of antigen (for kinetic characterization) and 1 injection of 0 nM antigen (i.e., buffer alone). After capturing ligand (anti-PD-1 antibody) on the anti-FLAG surface, the analyte (huPD1-His) was bound at 50, 25, 12.5, 6.25 and 0 nM for 180 seconds, followed by a 600 second dissociation phase at a flow rate of 50 μl/min. Between each ligand capture and analyte binding cycle, regeneration was carried out using 2 injections of 10 mM glycine pH 2.0 for 30 seconds at 30 μL/min, followed by a 30 second buffer wash step.
The data was fit with the Biacore T200 Evaluation software, using a 1:1 Langmuir binding model. KD (affinity, nM) was determined as a ratio of the kinetic rate constants calculated from the fits of the association and dissociation phases.
Anti-PD1 antibodies were tested for their ability to block a PD-1/PD-L1 interaction. PD-1 (ACROBiosystems, Inc.) was adsorbed on 384-well white Maxisorp® plates (Nunc) at 2 μg/mL in sodium bicarbonate buffer (pH 8.9) and incubated at 30° C. for 1 hour or overnight at 4° C. The plate was washed 3 times with PBS pH 7.4 with 0.05% Tween20 and blocked with 2% bovine serum albumin (BSA) in PBS pH 7.4 +0.1% Tween20 for 1 hour at 30° C.
The blocking solution was aspirated, and a dilution series of antibody was mixed with 100 nM PD-L1-Fc (ACROBiosystems, Inc.) in 0.2% BSA in PBS pH 7.4+0.1% Tween20 (diluent buffer) and incubated at 30° C. for 1 hour. The plate was washed, and 10 nM anti-PD-L1 antibody (BioLegend, clone 29E.2A3) in diluent buffer was added to all wells. After a 1 hour incubation at 30° C., the plate was washed and incubated with HRP-conjugated anti-mouse Fc (Jackson Laboratories), followed by detection with SuperSignal™ Pico Chemiluminescent Substrate (Thermo Pierce). Luminescence was detected on a SpectraMax® M5 plate reader (Molecular Devices).
Antibodies with expression levels >250 nM and mouse IgGs from hybridomas were tested in a fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) cell-binding assay. Chinese Hamster Ovary (or CHO) Cells stably expressing the human target molecule PD-1 on the cell surface (CHO-PD1) were used to screen for binding. Parental CHO cells were used as a negative control to determine background-binding levels. Parental CHO cells and CHO-PD1 cells were cultured in RPMI w/10% FCS penicillin/streptomycin (Pen/Strep) and glutamine (or Gln) and split every 3-4 days at 105 cells/mL.
A mix of parental CHO cells and CHO-PD1 cells was prepared as follows: Parental CHO cells were washed 2× in PBS then incubated in PBS containing 1 μM CellTrace™ Oregon Green488® (Life Technologies) at 37° C. for 30 minutes. Cells were then washed 2× with RPMI w/10% fetal calf serum (FCS), washed 2× with FACS buffer (PBS w/2% FCS), suspended thoroughly in ice-cold FACS buffer at a final concentration of 2×106 cells/mL and kept on ice. CHO-PD1 cells were similarly washed with FACS buffer and kept on ice at 2×106 cells/mL. Parental CHO cells and CHO-PD1 cells were then mixed to obtain a 1:1 cell suspension and seeded at 100 μL per well on 96 well polypropylene plates. Plates were spun at 1500 rpm for 5 minutes and cell pellets were suspended in 50 μL FACS buffer containing 6-12 point dilutions of anti-PD-1 variants starting from concentrations of ˜100-200 nM antibody, dispensed using BioMek FX (Beckman Coulter). Cells were then incubated on ice for 1 hr, washed with FACS buffer and incubated for 1 hr on ice with 50 μL FACS buffer containing 2.5 μg/ml R-phycoerythrin-conjugated goat anti-Human IgG (Jackson ImmunoResearch) or AF647-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (Life Technologies) dispensed using BioMek FX (Beckman Coulter). Cells were then washed 2× with FACS buffer and fixed for 10 minutes in 200 μL PBS with 2% paraformaldehyde (PFA) prior to fluorescence detection. Samples were acquired using a Becton Dickinson LSRII FACS. Mean Fluorescence Intensity of PD-1 antibody binding was analyzed using FlowJo® software (Tree Star, Inc.).
Variants that showed cell-binding activity were tested in a fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) cell-based competition assay. CHO cells stably expressing the human target molecule PD-1 on the cell surface (CHO- PD1) were used to screen for antibodies that compete with hFc-tagged recombinant human PD-L1 or PD-L2 proteins (R&D systems) for binding to PD-L1 expressed on the cell surface.
CHO-PD1 cells were cultured in RPMI with 10% FCS Pen/Strep and Gln and split every 3-4 days at 105 cells/ml. Cells were washed 2× with FACS buffer (PBS w/2% FCS), thoroughly in ice-cold FACS buffer at a final concentration of 1×106 cells/ml and seeded at 100 μL per well on 96 well polypropylene plates. Plates were spun at 1500 rpm for 5 minutes and cell pellets were suspended in 50 μL FACS buffer containing 8 point 1:3 dilutions (2× concentrated) of anti-PD-1 antibody variants, starting from high concentration of ˜200 nM. 50 μL FACS buffer containing a fixed amount of either 6 μg/ml rhPDL2-Fc or 50 μg/ml rhPDL1-Fc proteins were then added to the cells. Cell were then incubated on ice for 1 hr, washed with FACS buffer and incubated for 1 hr on ice with 50 μl FACS buffer containing 2.5 μg/ml R-phycoerythrin-conjugated anti-human IgG (Jackson ImmunoResearch). Cells were then washed 2× with FACS buffer and fixed for 10 minutes in 200 μl PBS with 2% PFA prior to acquisition. Samples were acquired using a Becton Dickinson LSRII FACS. Mean Fluorescence Intensity of rhPDL1 or rhPDL2 protein binding was analyzed using FlowJo® software (Tree Star, Inc.).
Anti-PD-1 antibodies were functionally tested for potency in blocking the PD-1 pathway in a peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) two-way mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) assay by measuring interferon gamma (IFN-g) secretion in cell culture medium. 1×105 human PBMC from 2 allogeneic donors were co-cultured in RPMI media+10% FBS in a total volume of 150 μl in a 96-well U-bottom plate. Anti-PD-1 antibodies were added at specific concentrations to each well. Isotype control antibody, non-PD-1 targeting antibody, or nothing were used as a negative controls. Cells were cultured for 5 days at 37° C. At day 5, conditioned media was collected and levels of IFN-g were measured using DuoSet® ELISA kits (R&D Systems).

The humanized heavy chains h1E9-HC1, h1E9-HC2, h1E9-HC3, and h1E9-5 were paired with humanized IgG light chains h1E9-LC1, h1E9-LC2, h1E9-LC3, and h1E9-LC4. These 16 combinations were then assessed for binding to human PD1 in vitro by surface plasmon resonance (Biacore®) and subsequently human and cynomolgus PD1 binding on CHO cells using FACS as described below.
Surface plasmon resonance (Biacore®) data is provided in Table 6.
The affinity of the IgGs for cell-surface expressed human PD-1 were measured according to Example 6, above. Affinity data is provided in Table 7.
The affinity of the IgGs for cell-surface expressed cynomolgus PD-1 were measured according to Example 6, above. Affinity data is provided in Table 8.
MC38 colorectal cancer cells (2×106 cells in 0.1 mL PBS) were implanted subcutaneously on the right flank of C57BL/6 mice (Charles River Laboratories). On day 2 post-cell implantation (day 0), mice were treated with anti-PD-1 or control antibody at a dose of 5 mg/kg intraperitoneally. Animals were dosed on dosing days 0, 4, 8, 11, and 14.
The treatment groups were as follows:
(1) PBS vehicle;
(2) control rat IgG2a, clone 2A3;
(3) anti-PD-1 rat IgG2a, clone RMP1-14;
(4) anti-PD-1 human scFv-Fc, clone PD1-F2 (see SEQ ID NOs: 306 and 293 for VH and VL sequences, respectively, and SEQ ID NO: 305 for the scFv-Fc);
(5) anti-PD-1 human scFv-Fc, clone 1353-G08 (see SEQ ID NOs: 251 and 275 for VH and VL sequences, respectively, and SEQ ID NO: 242 for the scFv-Fc);
(6) anti-PD-1 human scFv-Fc, clone 1353-G10 (see SEQ ID NOs: 252 and 276 for VH and VL sequences, respectively, and SEQ ID NO: 243 for the scFv-Fc); and
(7) anti-PD-1 human IgG, clone PD1-F2v (see SEQ ID NOs: 603 and 293 for VH and VL sequences, respectively, SEQ ID NO: 307 for the HC sequence, and SEQ ID NO: 308 for the LC sequence).
Antibodies (2) and (3) were obtained commercially from Bio X Cell. Antibodies (4)-(6) were produced using the cell-free expression methods described in Example 1. Antibody 7 was produced by mammalian cell expression using HEK293 cells and standard techniques.
Tumors were measured using an electronic caliper and tumor volumes were calculated using the formula, volume=(width2×length)/2. Statistical analysis was performed via a two-tailed Mann-Whitney test at day 17 post-treatment.
At day 17 post-treatment, all anti-PD-1 antibodies with strong mouse PD-1 reactivity (i.e., antibodies RMP1-14, PD1-F2, and 1353-G08) resulted in a significant delay in tumor establishment and growth (p<0.01) compared to the PBS and control rat IgG2a treatment groups. In contrast, antibody 1353-G10, which binds human PD-1 but has weaker reactivity with mouse PD-1, showed no significant effect on tumor establishment and growth (p>0.05).
Anti-PD-1 antibodies were functionally tested for potency in blocking the PD-1 pathway in restimulating peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from cytomegalovirus-positive (CMV+) human donors by measuring IFN-g secretion in cell culture medium.
CD14+ monocytes and CD3+ T cells were obtained from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) isolated from CMV+ human donors (AllCells, Alameda, Calif.) using MACS Cell Separation kits (Miltenyi Biotec).
CD14+ monocytes were differentiated into immature dendritic cells (DC) by culturing cells at 1×106 cells/ml for 7 days in presence of GM-CSF and IL-4 (Peprotech) in X-Vivo 15 media (Lonza) containing 2% human AB serum (Sigma-Aldrich), penicillin-streptomycin (Corning Mediatech) and GlutaMAX (Life Technologies). Following differentiation, DCs were matured by culturing in X-Vivo 15+2% human AB serum media at 1×106 cells/ml for 2 days in the presence of GM-CSF, IL-4, TNF-a, IL-1b, IL-6 (Peprotech) and prostaglandin E2 (Sigma-Aldrich).
To set-up the CMV recall assay, mature DCs were collected and washed. 10,000 DCs and 100,000 pan CD3+ T cells were plated per well in a 96-well U-bottom plate in a total volume of 100 μl media containing peptide pools for the CMV IE-1 and CMV pp65 proteins (Miltenyi Biotec).
Anti-PD-1 or control human IgG antibody (50 μl, final volume of 150 μl per well) were added starting at a final concentration of 400 nM with 5-fold serial dilutions. Cells were co-cultured with peptides and antibodies for 5-6 days. Conditioned media was collected and tested for human IFN-g levels by ELISA (BD Biosciences).

Anti-PD-1 antibodies were functionally tested for potency in blocking the PD-1 pathway in a peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) two-way mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) assay by measuring interferon gamma (IFN-g) secretion in cell culture medium.
CD14+ monocytes and CD4+ T cells were obtained from PBMC isolated from human donors using MACS Cell Separation kits. CD14+ monocytes were differentiated into immature DC by culturing cells at ×106 cells/ml cell density for 7 days in presence of GM-CSF and IL-4 in RPMI media containing 10% fetal bovine serum, penicillin-streptomycin and GlutaMAX.
Following differentiation, DCs were matured by culturing in RPMI+10% FBS media at 1×106 cells/ml cell density for 2 days in the presence of GM-CSF, IL-4, TNF-a, IL-1b, IL-6 and prostaglandin E2.
To set-up the DC/CD4+ T cell MLR, mature DCs were collected and washed. 10,000 DCs and 100,000 CD4+ T cells were plated per well in a 96-well U-bottom plate in a total volume of 100 μl media. Anti-PD-1 or control human IgG antibody (50 μl, final volume of 150 μl per well) were added starting at a final concentration of 400 nM with 5-fold serial dilutions. Cells were co-cultured with peptides and antibodies for 5-6 days. Conditioned media was collected and tested for human IFN-g levels by ELISA.
As shown in
Anti-PD-1 antibodies described herein were evaluated for acceleration of graft versus host disease (GVHD) in a mouse model. Since PD-1 negatively regulates immune response, blockade of PD-1 by an effective antibody should accelerate the immune and GVHD response.
40 female NSG mice aged 7 weeks and weighing approximately 19-22 g were used as human PBMC recipients. Groups were randomized into four groups of ten. On day 0, all animals received 2×107 human PBMC injected via the tail vein. Prior to PBMC injection, animals were dosed intraperitoneally (IP) with either control anti-GFP, Nivolumab anti-PD-1 antibody, or 1353-G10 anti-PD1 antibody (SEQ ID NOs: 252 and 276) as detailed in Table 9. Treatment was administered 2× per week until study conclusion.
Animals were weighed and observed at least two times per week for 5 weeks. Monitoring increased to daily when 10% body weight loss (compared to initial mouse weight) occurred. Animals were euthanized with CO2 at the end of five weeks (end of study), when they exhibited weight loss greater than 20%, or were unable to right themselves, cold to the touch, and moribund (severe hair ruffling, body weight loss, hunched posture, or decreased activity).
Upon sacrifice (after 5 weeks) or pre-mature euthanasia (due to body weight loss or moribundity), the spleen, liver, and serum were collected for further analyses. The liver and spleen were placed in formalin for 24 hours then transferred to 70% ethanol for storage. The serum was flash frozen and stored at −80° C. All procedures were conducted according to the guidelines of the Sutro Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) and Sutro IACUC protocol SU-001-2013
