BACKGROUND
The present invention relates to antibody-drug conjugates and uses thereof, for the treatment or prophylaxis of cancer, in particular use with cancer immunotherapy.
Cancer immunotherapy has revolutionized the way patients with cancer are being treated. Monoclonal antibodies that interfere with immune checkpoints such as CTLA-4 and PD-1 have demonstrated clinical efficacy in multiple tumor types (Wolchok et al., 2013; Callahan and Wolchok, 2013) In addition to these antibodies, several other drugs are being developed that modulate both adaptive and innate immunity (Khalil et al., 2016; Smyth et al., 2016).
Given the resistance that typically occurs following single-agent therapy, it has been hypothesized that combinatorial therapies will improve clinical benefit. Indeed, combination studies with multiple immunotherapies have led to improved response rates and survival (Larkin et al., 2015).
In addition to therapeutics that specifically target the immune system, other agents have been described that have been shown to have some effect on the immune system. It has been shown that some chemotherapies, such as anthracyclines and oxaliplatin, induce immunogenic cell death (ICD) and increase antitumor responses (Rios-Doria et al., 2015; Galluzzi et al., 2012; Tesniere et al., 2010; Obeid et al., 2007), each of which is incorporated herein by reference. ICD is the process by which certain cytotoxic drugs induce apoptosis of tumor cells in a manner which causes the release of immunogenic molecules.
Targeted therapies such as MEK and BRAF inhibitors have also been shown to have some immunomodulatory effects (Liu et al., 2015; Hu-Lieskovan et al., 2015; Vanneman and Dranoff, 2012), each of which is incorporated herein by reference), however it is unclear if these therapeutics elicit ICD or impact the immune system by some other mechanism.
Chemotherapy or targeted therapy requires systemic administration of the drug and thus neither therapy targets tumors per se. The antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) class has been developed to overcome this limitation by conjugating a cyotoxic payload directly to an antibody, which binds tightly and specifically to antigens that are overexpressed on tumor cells. ADCs can provide the localized delivery of cytotoxic payloads to tumors and have been shown to promote intracellular accumulation of the drug within the tumor cells. Such localization provides for relatively high concentrations of drug within the tumor whereas systemic administration of unconjugated (i.e., untargeted) drug to achieve the same tumor concentration may result in unacceptable levels of toxicity to normal cells).
Some ADC payloads have been investigated for their immunomodulatory activity. Muller et al. have demonstrated that ansamitocin P3 and dolastatin induces direct dendritic cell maturation and increased antitumor efficacy when combined with checkpoint blockade (Muller et al., 2014b; Muller et al., 2014a), both of which are incorporated herein by reference). From a mechanistic point of view, combining ADCs with immunotherapy has been contemplated as an approach to increase antitumor responses (Gerber et al., 2016). Indeed, a recent study has demonstrated that T-DM1, an ADC targeting the Her2 receptor, produced in vivo antitumor synergy in mice when combined with anti-CTLA-4 and PD-1, providing initial proof of concept that combining ADC and immunotherapy can produce strong anti-tumor effects (Muller et al., 2015).
The majority of ADCs currently in clinical development are conjugated with microtubule inhibitor payloads: either auristatins or maytansinoids. (Sievers and Senter, 2013), incorporated herein by reference). In this report, two other ADC payloads were investigated for their immunomodulatory activity: PBDs (pyrrolobenzodiazepines) and tubulysins (Hartley, 2011; Li et al., 2016). The mechanism of action of tubulysins is to destabilize tubulin polymers leading to G2/M arrest in mitosis leading to apoptosis, whereas the PBDs form interstrand cross-links in DNA leading to mitotic arrest during S phase and subsequent apoptosis. ADCs with PBD payloads are highlight potent, with in vitro EC50's typically in the low picomolar range (Saunders et al., 2015). Though more potent, the microtubule-destabilizing mechanism of action of tubulysin is similar to that of auristatins and maytansinoids. Despite this, it was shown that such compounds (microtubule-destabilizing) could induce immunogenic effects whereas microtubule-stabilizing compounds could not (Martin et al., 2014). While there is evidence in the literature that certain DNA targeting agents such as radiation and doxorubicin can induce immunogenic cell death, there is no published literature on the ability of PBDs to induce immunogenic cell death and it was not obvious that it would, given that the DNA alkylating agent mitomycin C does not induce ICD (Kroemer et al., 2013; Obeid et al., 2007).
Accordingly, there is need for novel targeted immunomodulatory tumor specific therapies that have potential for treating patients with conditions not adequately met by current approaches

FIGURE LEGENDS
FIG. 1: Vaccination model. (A): Schematic representation of vaccination/challenge mouse model experiment. (B): Percentage of tumor-free mice following challenge with CT26 cells treated with tubulysin, PBD, or radiation. Necrotic cells were used as a negative control (C): Number of tumor-free mice following challenge with necrotic CT26 cells, irradiated CT26 cells, tubulysin PBD,
FIG. 2: Rejection of new tumors in mice that achieved complete response with ADCs. (A): Table of complete responses in CT26 tumor-bearing mice that were treated with EphA2-1508 or EphA2-PBD. Mice were treated when tumor volumes were either 75 or 150 mm3. B): Mean tumor volume of cured mice that were re-challenged with CT26 cells on Day 138, along with growth of CT26 cells that were simultaneously implanted into naïve Balb/C animals. C): MCA205 tumor-bearing mice were dosed with EphA2 PBD. All mice achieved complete responses, and no tumors formed when mice were re-challenged on Day 43. Growth of MCA205 tumor in naïve animals is shown.
FIG. 3: AH1 ex-vivo stimulation assay from mice that achieved complete response. Splenic T cells from five mice that obtained complete response from EphA2-1508 and EphA2-PBD were assayed for IFN-gamma and TNF alpha production following ex-vivo stimulation by the AH1 peptide.
FIG. 4: ADCs had more activity in immunocompetent vs immunodeficient mice. Three syngeneic tumor models (CT26, 4T1, and MCA205) were evaluated for their anti-tumor response to EphA2-tubulysin (top panels) and EphA2-PBD (bottom panels) in immunodeficient (left panels) versus immunocompetent mice (right panels). (A): CT26 tumor model. (B): 4T1 tumor model. (C): MCA205 tumor model. ADCs were dosed when tumors were between 150-200 mm3.
FIG. 5: CD8 T cells are important for the efficacy of ADCs. Balb/C CT26 tumor-bearing mice were dosed with EphA2-Tub and EphA2-PBD simultaneously with a mixture of isotype control antibodies or a CD8-depleting antibody. The isoptype mix was also dosed separately.
FIG. 6: Synergistic effect of combination of ADCs with IMT. Balb/C mice bearing CT26 tumors were dosed with EphA2-PBD ADC or EphA2-tubulysin ADCalone and in combination with an anti-PD-L1 antibody or a mouse GITRL fusion protein. A) Untreated mice, B) EphA2-PBD, C) anti-PD-L1, D) EphA2-PBD+a-PD-L1, E) EphA2-tubulysin, F) GITRL FP, G) EphA2-tubulysin+GITRL FP, H) EphA2-PBD+a-PD-L1 (15 day post), and I) EphA2-tubulysin+GITRL FP (15 day post).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is based upon the surprising and unexpected discovery that an ADC payload can have an effect on immune cells, specifically inducing tumor-specific immunological memory. The present invention is further based upon the surprising and unexpected discovery that the combination of an ADC and an IMT provides an enhanced effect to provide a potent combination therapy. PBDs and tubulysins represent two potent ADC payload classes that have an effect on immune cells. The present invention thus provides targeted immunomodulatory tumor-specific therapy.
The present invention provides a new combination therapy based on an ADC and an IMT agent.
Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADC)
The ADCs defined herein may be used to provide cytotoxic payloads to the target location (e.g., tumorigenic cells), promote intracellular accumulation of the drug within the tumor cells and subsequently induce apoptosis.
In one embodiment of the invention, the drug conjugated to the ADC is a pyrrolobenzodiazepine PBD. In another embodiment of the invention, the drug conjugated to the ADC is a tubulysin.
One example of a PBD dimer is SG2000 (SJG-136):

Tubulysins for use in the present invention have the following general formula:

Further specific examples are disclosed in WO2015/157594, which is incorporated herein by reference.
PBDs are naturally occurring antibiotics that bind in the minor groove of DNA forming inter- and intra-strand cross-linked adducts (Hartley, 2011), incorporated herein by reference). Tubulysins are anti-mitotic agents that function to depolymerize microtubules (Li et al., 2016). These compounds have been shown to be extremely potent as ADC payloads (Saunders et al., 2015; Jeffrey et al., 2013, both of which are incorporated herein by reference).
The synthesis of PBD compounds is extensively discussed in the following references, which discussions are incorporated herein by reference:
a) WO 00/12508 (pages 14 to 30);
b) WO 2005/023814 (pages 3 to 10);
c) WO 2004/043963 (pages 28 to 29); and
d) WO 2005/085251 (pages 30 to 39).
The synthesis of tubulysin molecules for use in the present invention is discussed in WO 2015/157594, which is incorporated herein by reference.
In one embodiment of the invention, the antibody of the ADC is an anti-tumor antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof. Potential antitumor targets include but are not limited to the tumor-associated antigens set forth above. This advantageously allows the ADC of the invention to be targeted to tumor cells. Such localization provides for relatively high concentrations of drug within the tumor. In order to identify suitable tumor-associated antigens to target with an ADC, two general approaches can be employed. An indication-dependent approach results from focusing on a particular cancer type and then conducting research that leads to selection of targets and then ADCs for that disease. Alternatively, indication-independent screens can be used to identify targets based on functional characteristics, such as internalization, rather than on a specific type of cancer. Once potential targets are identified, various cancers can be screened for expression of those targets to select a lead indication.
In a further embodiment of the invention, the antibody is an anti-EphA2 antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof. In a still further embodiment of the invention, the antibody is 101 anti-EphA2 antibody (Jackson et al., 2008; US2011/028092 (SEQ ID NO:3)). EphA2 is abundantly expressed on several tumors.
In a further embodiment of the invention, the antibody is an anti-GPC3 antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof.
In a further embodiment of the invention, the antibody is an anti-B7H4 antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof.
In a further embodiment of the invention, the antibody is an anti-ASCT2 antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof.
In a further embodiment of the invention, the antibody is an anti-Her2 antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof.
In one embodiment of the invention, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof is a monoclonal antibody. In another embodiment of the invention, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof is a humanised antibody. In yet another embodiment of the invention, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof is a human antibody.
In one embodiment of the invention, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof is an IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, IgM, IgG1 or IgG2 antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof.
Antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof are not limited to a particular method of generation or production. Antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof can be prepared using a wide variety of techniques known in the art including hybridoma techniques, recombinant techniques, phage display technologies, transgenic animals (e.g., a XenoMouse®) or some combination thereof.
Antigen-binding fragments include Fab, Fv, scFv, dAb, Fd, Fab′, F(ab′)2 or an isolated complementarity determining region (CDR) having sufficient framework to bind. A Fab fragment may be a monovalent fragment consisting of the VLC, VHC, CL and CHI domains. A F(ab′)2 fragment may be a bivalent fragment comprising two Fab fragments linked by a disulfide bridge at the hinge region. A Fc fragment may consist of the VHC and CHI domains. A Fv fragment may consist of the VLC and VHC domains of a single arm of an antibody. A dAb fragment (Ward et al., 1989) incorporated herein by reference may consist of a VHC domain. An isolated CDR having sufficient framework to bind may be an antigen binding portion of a variable region.
An antigen binding portion of a light chain variable region and an antigen binding portion of a heavy chain variable region, e.g., the two domains of the Fv fragment, VLC and VHC, can be joined, using recombinant methods, by a synthetic linker that enables them to be made as a single protein chain in which the VLC and VHC regions pair to form monovalent molecules (known as single chain Fv (scFv); see (Huston et al., 1988; Bird et al., 1988), both of which are incorporated herein by reference). These are obtained using conventional techniques known to those with skill in the art, and the portions are screened for utility in the same manner as are intact antibodies.
As would be well recognized by those skilled in the art, fragments can be obtained by molecular engineering or via chemical or enzymatic treatment (such as papain or pepsin) of an intact or complete antibody or antibody chain or by recombinant means. See (Paul, 1999) for a more detailed description of antibody fragments.
In one embodiment of the invention, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof binds its target with high affinity. In one embodiment of the invention, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof binds its target with a KD of <50 nM as measured by BIAcore. In order to be effective the ADC not only needs to bind efficiently to the target on the surface of cells, but that binding needs to result in internalization of the ADC-antigen complex. Following internalization, the ADC needs to be metabolized in order to release the warhead and elicit cytotoxicity. In one embodiment of the invention the antibody or antigen-binding fragment internalizes following binding to its target antigen.

Definitions
A “therapeutically effective amount” refers to the amount of the ADC, which when administered alone or in combination to a patient for treating disease, or at least one of the clinical symptoms of disease, is sufficient to affect such treatment of the disease, or symptom. The therapeutically effective amount can vary depending, for example, on the ADC and/or symptoms of the disease, the age, weight, and/or health of the patient to be treated, and the judgment of the prescribing physician. An appropriate therapeutically effective amount in any given instance may be ascertained by those skilled in the art or capable of determination by routine experimentation. A therapeutically effective amount is also one in which any toxic or detrimental effects of the ADC are outweighed by the beneficial effects.
Cancer immunotherapy either stimulates the activities of specific components of the immune system or counteract signals produced by cancer cells that suppress immune responses
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Materials and Methods
Example 1.1: Antibodies, Reagents and Cell Lines
CT26, 4T1 and Renca cells were obtained from ATCC (Manassas, Va.). CT26 and 4T1 were maintained in RPMI media supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. Renca were maintained in EMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. MCA205 cells were obtained from Agonox (Portland, Oreg.) and grown in RPMI supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. Cell lines were re-authenticated using STR-based DNA profiling and multiplex PCR (IDEXX Bioresearch, Columbia, Mo.). Anti-PD-1 (RMP1-14), anti-PD-L1 (10F.9G2), anti-CD4 (GK1.5), and anti-CD8 (53-6.7) were obtained from BioXCell (West Lebanon, N.H.). Mouse OX40 ligand fusion protein (OX40L FP), mouse GITR ligand fusion protein (GITRL FP), and isotype control antibodies were produced by MedImmune. To generate OX86 mIgG2a antibody, the OX86 hybridoma was purchased from Sigma. The Fc domain was then re-engineered to mouse IgG2a format by MedImmune.
Example 1.2: Animal Studies
Cells were grown in monolayer culture, harvested by trypsinization, and implanted subcutaneously into mice. For the CT26 and Renca tumor models, 5×105 cells were implanted in the right flank of 6-8 week old female BALB/c mice (Harlan, Indianapolis, Ind.) using a 26-gauge needle. For the MCA205 tumor model, 2.5×105 cells were implanted in the right flank of 6-8 week old female C57BL/6 mice (Harlan, Indianapolis, Ind.) using a 26-gauge needle. For the 4T1 tumor model, 1×105 cells were implanted in the right flank of 6-8 week old female BALB/c mice using a 26-gauge needle.
All antibodies and fusion proteins were dosed via intraperitoneal injection. Immunotherapeutic agent dosing in the CT26 model was as follows: anti-PD-L1 (30 mg/kg, 2×/week×4); anti-PD-1 (20 mg/kg; 2×/week×4); mouse OX40 ligand fusion protein (5 mg/kg; 2×/week×2); mouse GITR ligand fusion protein (5 mg/kg×6). Dosing in the MCA205 model was as follows: EphA2-tubulysin (3 mg/kg, single dose) and mouse OX40L FP (20 mg/kg, 2×/week×2). Dosing in the Renca model was as follows: EphA2-PBD (0.33 mg/kg, once a week×3), and mouse GITRL FP (1 mg/kg; 2×/week×6). ADCs were dosed by intravenous injection at 10 mL per kg of mouse body weight. At the beginning of treatment, mice were randomized by tumor volume and were dosed when tumors reached 100-200 mm3, with the exception of GITRL FP in the CT26 model which was dosed when tumors reached ˜300 mm3. For delayed dosing experiments, therapy was initiated 15 days after the ADC was administered using the same dose schedule as above.
The number of animals per group ranged from 10-12 animals per group as determined based on sample size calculations using nQuery software. Both tumor and body weight measurements were collected twice weekly and tumor volume was calculated using the equation (L×W2)/2, where L and W refer to the length and width dimensions, respectively. Error bars were calculated as the standard error of the mean. The general health of mice was monitored daily and all experiments were conducted in accordance to AAALAC and MedImmune IACUC guidelines for humane treatment and care of laboratory animals. Statistical analysis for synergy was determined as previously described (Rios-Doria et al., 2015).
For depletion studies, CD8 depleting antibody was administered (8 mg/kg) on Day 6, 10, 14 and 18 after tumor cell implantation. EphA2-tubulysin was dosed at 5 mg/kg and EphA2-PBD was dosed at 0.3 mg/kg on Day 11. Anti-PD-L1 was administered at 30 mg/kg on days 11, 14, 17, and 21.
Example 1.3: AH-1 Stimulation Assay
Spleens from mice that achieved complete response from ADC treatment were processed, and cells were plated at 2×106 cells per well in a 96-well plate. The cells were incubated with AH1 peptide (Anaspec #64798) at 10 μg/mL along with protein transport inhibitors (Ebioscience #00-4980-93) for four hours followed by evaluation by flow cytometry. The percentage of CD45+/CD8+ or CD45+/CD4+ that were also TNFα+ and/or IFNγ+ were then analyzed.
Example 1.4: Pharmacodynamic Studies
CT26 cells (5×105 cells/mouse) were implanted in the right flank of 6-8 week old BALB/c female mice. When tumors were ˜300 mm3, mice were dosed with EphA2-PBD (0.3 mg/kg), EphA2-tubulysin (5 mg/kg), anti-PDL1 (10F.9G2, 20 mg/kg) or OX40 monoclonal antibody (OX86, 5 mg/kg). ADCs were administered as one intravenous dose on Day 0. PD-L1 antibody was administered on Days 0, 4, 7 and 11 and OX40 antibody was administered on Days 0 and 4. On Day 5 and Day 12 following dosing, spleen and tumor were collected, processed and stained for flow cytometry. For the Renca model, dosing of EphA2-PBD, GITRL FP, or the combination started when tumors were ˜150 mm3. EphA2-PBD was dosed on D0, GITRL FP was dosed on Day 0 and 4, and tumors were harvested on Day 5. Red blood cells were lysed with ACK solution (Life Tech, Carlsbad, Calif.). Tumors were cut into 2 mm3 pieces and digested for 40 min. using a Miltenyi Tumor Dissociation Human kit (Miltenyi Biotec, San Diego, Calif.). Tissues were counted for viability and then plated at 1 million cells per well. Live Dead Blue (Life Tech, Carlsbad, Calif.) was stained at 1:1000 for 20 minutes at room temperature then washed and blocked using 4% mouse serum for 15 minutes at room temperature. Extracellular dyes were added then incubated at 4 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes in FACS buffer (PBS+2% FBS). Cells were then washed, fixed and permeabilized using a FOXP3 transcription kit (Ebioscience, San Diego, Calif.). Intracellular stains were applied for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were then washed and run on the LSRII or Fortessa flow cytometer (BD, San Diego). Antibodies used for flow cytometry staining include, CD8 (BD, Clone 5H10), CD11 b (BD, Clone M1/70), CD4 (Biolegend Clone RM4-5), CD11c (Biolegend Clone n418), CD86 (Biolegend, Clone GL-1), GR-1 (Biolegend, Clone RB6-8C5), MHC-II (Biolegend Clone M5/114.15.2), F4/80 (Biolegend, Clone BM8), CD69 (Biolegend, Clone H1.2F3), KI-67 (eBioscience, Clone SolA15), PD-1 (Ebioscience, Clone J43), FOXP3 (Ebioscience Clone FJK-16S), CD45 (eBioscience Clone 30-F11) and IFN-gamma (Clone XMG1.2). Data were analyzed using Flowjo software (Treestar, Ashland, Oreg.).
Example 1.5: In Vivo Vaccination Studies
CT26 cells were treated with either 400 nM AZD9185 (tubulysin) or 8 nM SG3199 (PBD) for 24 hours so that the cells were committed to cell death (as assessed by lack of growth in re-plating experiments) but still >95% viable. Five-hundred thousand of these treated cells were inoculated into the left flank of BALB/c mice to test for their ability to vaccinate for subsequent right flank challenge. Controls included cells treated with 75 Gy radiation or taken through 3 freeze-thaw cycles (necrotic). Challenge on the right flank utilized 3×106 untreated CT26 cells 7 days later.
Example 1.6: ADC Production
The antibody to EphA2 has been previously described (Jackson et al., 2008). The PBD and tubulysin payloads were site-specifically conjugated to cysteines engineered into the Fc domain of the antibodies. Initially the antibodies are partially reduced by adding the antibody, at a 5-10 mg/mL concentration, to tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine (TCEP) dissolved in a pH-adjusted PBS EDTA buffer such that the resulting antibody/TCEP solution had a TCEP/mAb molar ratio of 40. The antibody/TCEP solution was incubated at 37° C. for 2.5-3 hours. The reduced antibody was buffer exchanged into conjugation reaction buffer (PBS, 1 mM EDTA, pH 7.2) using NAP columns for mg scale conjugations. Re-oxidation of the antibody interchain disulfide bonds was initiated by the addition of dehydrascorbic acid (dHAA) in DMSO solution to achieve a dHAA/mAb molar ratio of 20, and incubation at 20° C. for 3-4 hours.
The PBD or tubulysin payloads were prepared by dissolving these in DMSO to achieve a final concentration of 10 mM. For the conjugation reaction, DMSO is added slowly to the reduced antibody to a final concentration of 10% v/v, and subsequently the payload is added to the antibody to achieve a payload/mAb molar ratio of 12. The payload/mAb solution is incubated at 20° C. for 1 hour and the conjugation reaction is quenched by the addition of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) solution to achieve a NAC/mAb molar ratio of 48 and subsequent incubation at 20° C. for 15 minutes. The final ADC products were then buffer exchanged into either PBS or 25 mM histidine HCl, 200 mM sucrose and 0.02% w/v PS80, pH 6. The biochemical properties of the resulting ADC are characterized using size-exclusion chromatography high pressure liquid chromatography (SEC-HPLC) to determine purity and aggregation content, and by using hydrophobic interaction chromatography HPLC (HIC-HPLC) to confirm drug loading. Reduced glycosylated reverse-phase HPLC (RP-HPLC) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) were conducted to determine the drug:antibody ratio (DAR) and specificity of site-specific conjugation. Typically these conjugation reactions produced ADCs with >98% monomer, with a conjugation efficiency of >90% correlating to a DAR>1.82.
Example 2: Vaccination/Challenge Assays
Different anti-neoplastic compounds differ in their ability to orchestrate the release of immunogenic molecules from targeted dying cells. Immunogenic cell death involves induction of cell surface calreticulin as well as release of ATP and HMGB1 from dying cells which bind to CD91, P2RX7, and TLR4, respectively, on dendritic cells resulting in the potentiation of an adaptive immune response.
Since tubulysin and PBDs induce cell death through the fundamentally distinct mechanisms of microtubule inhibition and DNA crosslinking, respectively, it is understood that they might differ in their abilities to activate dendritic cells or boost immunity through other means.
Example 2.1: Ability of PBD and Tubulysin to Vaccinate In Vivo
In order to test this, tubulysin and PBD were used in a vaccination/challenge mouse model. CT26 mouse colon cancer cells were treated with either tubulysin (1 uM) or PBD (10 nM) for a period of 24 hours (FIG. 1A). At this point in time, the cells were still viable but committed subsequent cell death.
These dying but not yet dead cells were implanted subcutaneously into the left flank of BALB/c mice to test if they could vaccinate against subsequent challenge with a tumor forming dose of untreated CT26 cells in the opposite flank 1 week later. Irradiated cells were included as a positive control and necrotic cells which were taken through a freeze thaw cycle were included as a negative control.
Necrotic cells provided did not vaccinate since by day 32 following CT26 challenge, there were no tumor free mice (FIGS. 1B and 1C). As expected, irradiated CT26 cells were highly immunogenic and protected all mice from tumors. Tubulysin and PBD treated cells protected 40 and 70% of mice, respectively, from tumor formation when assessed on day 65. These results demonstrate that tubulysin treated cells and PBD treated cells provided significant vaccination.
Example 2.2: Ability of ADCs Comprising PBD or Tubulysin to Vaccinate In Vivo
Based on the results in Example 2.1, it was investigated whether treatment of tumor-bearing mice with ADCs conjugated with tubulysin or PBD payloads could also result in vaccination of mice.
For these studies, an antibody targeting EphA2 was utilized and this was conjugated with a tubuylsin (AZ1508) or PBD (SG3315) payload. CT26 tumor-bearing BALB/c mice were treated with EphA2-tubulysin or EphA2-PBD at dose levels and frequency expected to result in a significant percentage of complete responses. Treatment of CT26 tumor-bearing mice when tumor volumes were either 75 mm3 or 150 mm3 produced a large percentage of complete responses (FIG. 2A). Following treatment and 90 days of observation, ˜57% of mice that received EphA2-tubulysin at 5 mg/kg had a complete response. In contrast, the majority of mice (82%) that received EphA2-PBD at 1 mg/kg had complete responses.
Subsequently, a subset of these tumor-free mice were re-challenged with CT26 cells, and 86% of mice cured with EphA2-tubulysin rejected the tumor cell challenge, while 76% of those cured with EphA2-PBD rejected the tumor cell challenge (FIG. 2B). CT26 cells grew readily in naïve BALB/c mice that were innoculated at the same time. These results demonstrate that cell-killing induced by these ADCs produced tumor-specific immunological memory. The ability of ADCs to induce memory was then evaluated in another syngeneic tumor model, MCA205. In this model, 10/10 animals achieved complete response when a single dose of EphA2-PBD was administered at 1 mg/kg. Following re-challenge with MCA205 cells at Day 43 (FIG. 2C), all mice remained tumor-free and no tumor growth was observed up to 160 days after initial cell implantation. In comparison, MCA205 tumors readily grew in naïve 057Bl/6 animals which were simultaneously implanted at the time of re-challenge. These data demonstrate that both EphA-Tub and EphA2-PBD provided significant vaccination to re-challenge in vivo.
Example 2.3: Ability of ADCs to Induce Tumor-Specific Immunological Memory
To determine whether there were any functional changes in T cells from mice that achieved complete response following treatment with an ADC, splenic T cells from five mice that obtained complete response from either EphA2-tubulysin or EphA2-PBD were assayed for IFN-gamma and TNF alpha production following ex-vivo stimulation by the AH1 peptide, which is the immunodominant antigen of CT26 cells.
In this assay, CD4+ T cells from mice treated with EphA2-tubulysin produced TNF alpha upon stimulation with AH1 peptide (FIG. 3A), while CD4+ T cells from both EphA2-tubulysin and EphA2-PBD treated animals produced IFN-gamma (FIG. 3B). A similar pattern of expression was found on CD8+ T cells (FIG. 3C-D).
Taken together, these data demonstrate that these ADCs induced tumor-specific immunological memory and that these cells were functionally distinct from T cells from naïve mice. Also there appear to be payload-specific responses since only the EphA2-tubulysin induced TNF-alpha secreting T cells.
Example 3: Role of the Immune System in the ADC-Induced Anti-Tumor Activity
Most antitumor studies evaluating ADCs have been performed in immunodeficient mice. Since the data in Example 2 suggests that T cells may play a role in anti-tumor activity, the anti-tumor activity of these EphA2 ADCs in T-cell deficient (nude) mice was evaluated compared to immunocompetent mice.
Example 3.1: Anti-Tumor Activity in Immunocompetent Vs. Immunodeficient Mice
The anti-tumor activity of ADCs against three syngeneic tumor models (CT26, 4T1, and MCA205) grown in either immunocompetent or immunodeficient mice was evaluated (FIG. 4). In each tumor model, both EphA2-tubulysin (top panels) and EphA2-PBD (bottom panels) had more anti-tumor activity in immunocompetent mice (right panels) compared to immunodeficient mice (left panels).
These results demonstrate that a functional immune system is important for full activity of these ADCs, and suggest that T cells are important for the efficacy of ADCs in immunocompetent models.
Example 3.2: Role of T Cells in Efficacy of ADCs
To test whether T cells are important for the efficacy of ADCs in immunocompetent models, CT26 tumor-bearing mice were treated with EphA2-tubuylsin or EphA2-PBD ADC along with a CD8 depleting antibody.
Strikingly, depletion of CD8+ T cells abrogated the efficacy of the ADCs alone (FIG. 5). There was no effect on ADC activity when dosing with an isotype control antibody. These results demonstrate that T cells are important for the efficacy of ADCs in immunocompetent models.
The above results demonstrate that an immune response is likely responsible for the ADC-induced increased anti-tumor activity.
Example 4: Synergistic Effect of ADCs and Cancer Immunotherapies
The fact that cells killed with tubulysin or PBD could vaccinate mice against CT26 tumor re-challenge suggested that these warheads may induce immunogenic cell death. It was investigated whether ADCs carrying these warheads may be able to produce additive or potentially synergistic effects if combined with cancer immunotherapies.
BALB/c mice bearing CT26 tumors were dosed with EphA2-ADCs alone or in combination with an anti-PD-L1 antibody (FIG. 6).
Treatment with either 0.1 mg/kg of EphA2-PBD or 30 mg/kg of anti-PD-L1 produced moderate anti-tumor activity with two complete responses (CRs), i.e. complete regressions, in each group of ten mice (FIGS. 6B and 6C). The combination of anti-PD-L1 and EphA2-PBD however produced a synergistic response with 7/10 CRs (FIG. 6D). It should be noted that 0.1 mg/kg of EphA2-PBD is a suboptimal dose of the ADC in the CT26 model (FIG. 4A).
Treatment of mice with EphA2-tubulysin ADC produced tumor growth delay but no CRs (FIG. 6E). Mice treated with a mouse GITR ligand fusion protein elicited potent anti-tumor activity with 8/12 animals achieving CRs (FIG. 6F). However, the combination of EphA2-tubulysin ADC with GITRL FP produced a synergistic response with CRs observed in all (12/12) mice (FIG. 6G).
The aforementioned studies were performed through dosing the ADCs and immunotherapy simultaneously. When dosing of the immunotherapy was delayed, a much different outcome was observed. When anti-PD-L1 was dosed 15 days after EphA2-PBD ADC (FIG. 6H), no combination effect was observed. A much reduced combination effect was observed with GITRL FP was dosed 15 days after EphA2-tubulysin ADC (FIG. 6I). These data demonstrate that the schedule of dosing of ADCs and IMTs is important for activity.
Combination studies with these ADCs combined with either anti-PD-1 antibodies or an OX40 ligand fusion protein were also performed. Results obtained from these combination studies are shown in FIG. 6. These results demonstrate that the combination of these ADCs with these cancer immunotherapies produced synergistic anti-tumor responses compared to single agent activities.
These results demonstrate that combining ADCs with checkpoint inhibitors or agonists of the TNFR superfamily results in potent, enhanced anti-tumor effects in vivo.
CD8 depletion also abrogated the activity of the ADCs in combination with anti-PD-L1 (FIG. 7 and see Example 3.2). These data demonstrate that CD8+ T cells play a role in the activity of ADCs in immunocompetent animals.
Example 5: A Pharmacodynamics Study of ADCs
To determine the effects these ADCs were having on immune cells in vivo, a pharmacodynamics study was performed in the CT26 model.
CT26 tumor-bearing mice were administered EphA2-PBD or EphA2-tubulysin alone or in combination with PD-L1 or OX40 antibodies. Spleen and tumor were harvested 5 or 12 days after drug administration and investigated for changes in immune cell populations.
EphA2-tubulysin induced tumor infiltration of both CD45+ lymphocytes and CD45+CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) (FIG. 9, A-B). While EphA2-PBD did not induce tumor-infiltration of these cell types, it did induce, along with EphA2-tubulysin, activation of pre-existing CD8+ cells in the tumor as identified by a CD8+CD69+ population (FIG. 9C). Activation of CD8+ cells was also observed with anti-OX40 treatment, and both EphA2-PBD and EphA2-tubulysin in combination with anti-PD-L1. EphA2-tubulysin, OX40 antibody alone and in combination with both ADCs decreased the number of total CD4+ T cells in the tumor (FIG. 9D). Within this subset, the number of FOXP3+ cells, a marker of regulatory T cells (Tregs), were slightly increased in the tumor following treatment with EphA2-tubulsysin alone or in combination with anti-PD-L1 (FIG. 9E). In contrast, the number of Tregs within the tumor was markedly decreased following treatment with either an OX40 antibody alone or in combination with either ADC (FIG. 9E). However, despite the slight increase in Tregs with EphA2-tubulysin, the CD8:Treg ratio in this group was increased overall compared to untreated tumors, as well as with OX40 antibody alone and in combination with both ADCs (FIG. 9F). Both ADCs induced PD-1 expression, as well as a higher percentage of CD8+ cells that were Ki67 positive, demonstrating increased CD8+ T cell proliferation (FIG. 9, G-H). PD-1 and Ki67 expression also increased on CD8+ cells following treatment with EphA-tubulysin in combination with OX40 antibodies. Both ADCs were also able to induce proliferation of CD4+ cells in the spleen as indicated by increased numbers of CD45+CD4+Ki67+ cells (FIG. 91). However, significantly larger increases in splenic CD4+ T cell proliferation were observed with EphA2-PBD in combination with anti-PD-L1 and OX40 and EphA2-tubulysin in combination with anti-PD-L1 compared to individual agents (FIG. 91). This finding highlights one potential mechanism by which ADC+IMT combination therapy led to significantly larger antitumor effects than single agent therapy.
In examining changes to myeloid cells, ADCs were found to increase levels of CD86 in multiple cell populations. These results are shown in FIG. 10 as follows. EphA2-tubulysin alone and in combination with anti-PD-L1 or OX40 induced tumor-infiltration of CD45+CD86+ cells. These same groups also increased expression of CD86 on F480+ macrophages. As CD86 is a marker of increased antigen presentation, these results demonstrate that EphA2-tubulysin is able to directly induce tumor infiltration of cells that may possess this increased capability. Although EphA2-PBD did not induce tumor infiltration of CD45+CD86+ cells, EphA2-PBD did induce CD86 expression on CD45+CD11c+MHCIIhi mature dendritic cells either alone or in combination with anti-PD-L1 and OX40. Indeed, all treatment groups except anti-PD-L1 alone increased CD86 expression on mature dendritic cells. Interestingly, EphA2-tubulysin alone and in combination with anti-PD-L1, and EphA2-PBD in combination with anti-OX40 increased the percent of CD86+ granulocytic MDSCs in the tumor, suggesting an increased antigen-presentation phenotype on these cells.
The main phenotypic differences between combination and individual therapies were observed on myeloid cells in the spleen of CT26 tumor-bearing animals. EphA2-tubulysin or EphA2-PBD in combination with anti-PD-L1 increased the percent of CD45+CD11c+MHCIIhi mature dendritic cells in the spleen compared to anti-PD-L1 alone. Combining EphA2-tubulysin with anti-OX40, but not EphA2-PBD with OX40, had similar effects. Both EphA2-PBD and EphA2-tubulysin in combination with anti-PD-L1 increased CD86 expression on CD45+ lymphocytes compared to anti-PD-L1 alone. Interestingly, the combination of EphA2-tubulysin with anti-OX40, but not EphA2-PBD with anti-OX40, also increased CD86 expression on these cells. This phenotype represents a differentiating effect when OX40 antibodies are combined with tubulysin as compared to PBD-based ADCs. Additional examinations of myeloid populations in the spleen revealed modulation of CD86 expression on MDSCs. EphA2-PBD and EphA2-tubulysin in combination with anti-PD-L1 increased the percent of CD86+ monocytic MDSCs compared to individual therapies. The combination of EphA2-tubulysin with anti-OX40, but not EphA2-PBD combined with anti-OX40, also increased CD86+ monocytic MDSCs. EphA2-PBD and EphA2-tubulysin also increased the percent of CD86 expression on granulocytic MDSCs compared to anti-PD-L1 alone. The combination of EphA2-tubulysin and anti-OX40, but not EphA2-PBD and anti-OX40, increased the percent of CD86+ granulocytic MDSCs in the spleen. Strikingly, the combination of EphA2-tubulysin with anti-PD-L1 and anti-OX40 induced significantly higher infiltration of these cells as compared to the EphA2-PBD combinations. These results demonstrate that ADCs with either PBD or tubulysin payloads induce immunophenotypic changes within both the tumor and spleen.
The results demonstrate that the two different ADC payloads induce immunomodulatory effects, which has previously been unreported. Although PBD and tubulysin have distinct cytotoxic mechanisms of action, in an immunocompetent background, both payloads were able to induce an immunogenic cell death that manifests when ADCs conjugated with these payloads were dosed in combination with immunotherapy. The finding that both payloads were able to induce antigen-specific immunological memory also supports this. Specifically, the results demonstrate that the effects of these ADC payloads on immune cells reveal a role for these payloads in dendritic cell activation, leading to potent combination with immunotherapies, which is CD8+ T cell-dependent.
Taken together these data suggest that combinatorial therapies with ADCs and immunotherapy discussed herein could provide an increased clinical response.
All of the data presented thus far has been using the CT26 model, which is known to be sensitive to many immunotherapies, and using ADCs targeting a single tumor-associated antigen, EphA2. To confirm that the effects of the ADC payloads observed with the EphA2 targeting ADCs are not model-dependent and can be applied to ADCs against other targets, we set out to determine whether ADCs can combine with immunotherapy in a different syngeneic tumor model, and also whether synergy could be observed using ADCs targeting a different tumor-associated antigen. CT26 cells overexpress the IGF1R receptor, therefore an antibody recognizing mouse IGF1R was conjugated with the PBD payload. IGF1R-PBD given as a single administration of 1 mg/kg in established CT26 tumors yielded one CR (FIG. 11A, top right). Anti-PD-L1 treatment resulted in 4 CRs (FIG. 11A, bottom left). However, the combination results in synergistic effects with CRs observed in 11/12 mice. These results demonstrate that synergy with ADCs and immunotherapy could be observed with a different ADC.
The EphA2 ADCs were then evaluated in the MCA205 tumor model as this model also overexpresses the EphA2 receptor. MCA205 tumor-bearing mice were dosed with EphA2-tubulysin (FIG. 11B, top right), an OX40 ligand fusion protein (FIG. 9B, bottom left) and the combination (FIG. 9B, bottom right). EphA2-tubulysin treatment resulted in 2CRs, OX40 FP treatment resulted in 0 CRs but the combination treatment resulted in 6/12 CRs. These results demonstrate that synergistic antitumor effects resulting from combing ADCs and immunotherapy may also be observed in diverse tumor models representing different patient tumor phenotypes.
EphA2-PBD was then evaluated in the Renca tumor model. As agonist antibodies to GITR have been shown to deplete Tregs in mouse models, and the Renca model was previously shown to be dependent on Tregs for growth (25), we examined the effect of combining a Treg-depleting mouse GITR ligand fusion protein (mGITRL FP) with EphA2-PBD ADC. Renca tumor-bearing mice were treated with EphA2-PBD (FIG. 11C, top right), mGITRL FP (FIG. 12C, bottom left), or the combination (FIG. 12C, bottom right). Treatment of mice with EphA2-PBD resulted in no CRs, whereas mGITRL FP induced 3 CRs. Strikingly, the combination of EphA2-PBD and mGITRL FP produced CRs in 8 of 10 mice. These data demonstrated yet a third tumor model in which an ADC bearing a PBD payload demonstrated synergy with an immunotherapy.
Example 6: Differences Between ADC Payloads
While ADCs with either tubulysin or PBD payloads were able to synergize with immunotherapy, most of the differences between these were observed when the immune microenvironment was examined following treatment of mice with these ADCs.
EphA2 ADCs conjugated with the tubulysin payload consistently induced CD86 expression in a number of myeloid compartments, including on dendritic cells, macrophages and MDSCs. The same effect was only observed with the EphA2-PBD in some instances,
Taken together, these findings support the idea that these payloads are inducing immunogenic cell death, and at least for dendritic cells, CD86 upregulation may indicate an increase in antigen-presentation function for these cells.
