The present application belongs to the field of biomedicine, and particularly relates to a medicament for treating a tumor.
Endometrial cancer (EC) is a group of epithelial malignant tumors occurring in the endometrium, also known as corpus uteri cancer, and is one of the three most common malignant tumors of the female reproductive tract. It is most common in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. With the increase in the average life span of the population and the change in lifestyle, the incidence of endometrial cancer has been on a continuously rising trend for the last 20 years and patients have become increasingly younger. In western countries, the incidence of endometrial cancer has ranked first among malignant tumors of the female reproductive system, while in China, endometrial cancer is the second most common gynecological malignant tumor after cervical cancer and accounts for about 20%-30% of gynecological malignant tumors. The incidence of endometrial cancer in some developed cities has ranked first in gynecological malignant tumors. The postoperative recurrence rate of patients with stage I and stage II disease is about 15%, with 50%-70% of the recurrences being symptomatic. Most recurrences occur within 3 years after treatment. Treatment for recurrent tumors confined to vagina or pelvis can still achieve good effect. Patients with an isolated vaginal recurrence have a 5-year survival rate of 50%-70% after radiotherapy.
In principle, the treatment of endometrial cancer is based on surgery, supplemented by multimodality therapy such as radiotherapy, drug therapy, and hormone. For estrogen-dependent and nulliparous patients with early-stage endometrial cancer, conservative treatment with a progestogen is often used to preserve fertility; for patients with advanced-stage endometrial cancer, appropriate chemotherapy is adopted to reduce the tumor volume before operation, and reasonable selection of chemotherapy drugs can significantly improve the surgical resection rate; for metastatic endometrial cancer and endometrial cancer that recurs after surgery, hormone drugs such as progestogen, gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue and aromatase inhibitor, and therapeutic drugs such as paclitaxel, carboplatin and doxorubicin are commonly used. With the emergence of chemotherapy resistance, targeted drug therapy such as pembrolizumab, avelumab, bevacizumab, sorafenib and sunitinib has important significance for improving the efficacy and prognosis of endometrial cancer.
Microsatellite (MS) refers to a DNA sequence in which a few nucleotides (mostly 1-6) are tandemly repeated in units in the cell genome, and is also called short tandem repeat (STR). When the function of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) is abnormal, the copy errors of the microsatellite cannot be corrected and are accumulated continuously, resulting in changes in the length or base composition of microsatellite, which is called microsatellite instability (MSI), and at the same time leading to a hypermutated phenotype in the genome. MSI can be classified into 3 categories according to degree: microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H), microsatellite instability-low (MSI-L), and microsatellite stability (MSS).
Programmed death factor-1 and its ligands (PD-1/PD-L1) are a pair of immune co-stimulatory factors. PD-1 normally exerts an immunomodulatory effect through its ligand, PD-L1. Activation of the PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathway may lead to formation of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, so that tumor cells can escape from immune monitoring and killing of organisms, while blocking the PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathway may reverse the tumor immune microenvironment and enhance endogenous anti-tumor immune effects.

In one embodiment, framework sequences suitable for use in the present application include those similar in structure to the framework sequences disclosed herein. Additional modifications may be made in the framework regions to improve the properties of the antibodies disclosed herein. Such additional framework modifications may include: chemical modifications, point mutations for reducing immunogenicity or removing T cell epitopes, or modifications reverting the mutations to residues in original germline sequences. In some embodiments, such modifications include those corresponding to the mutations exemplified herein, including reversions to germline sequences. For example, in one embodiment, one or more amino acids in the human VH and/or VL framework regions of the humanized antibodies described herein are reverted to the corresponding amino acids in the parent murine antibodies. For example, for the VH and VL of humanized 5G11 and humanized 13C5 antibodies, several sites of framework amino acids of the template human antibodies described above are reverted to the corresponding amino acid sequences in the mouse 5G11 and 13C5 antibodies. In one embodiment, the amino acids at positions 53, 60 and/or 67 of the light chain variable region are reverted to the corresponding amino acids found at the positions in mouse 5G11 or 13C5 light chain variable region. In another embodiment, the amino acids at positions 24, 28, 30, 49, 73, 83 and/or 94 of the heavy chain variable region are reverted to the corresponding amino acids found at the positions in mouse 5G11 or 13C5 heavy chain variable region. In one embodiment, the humanized 5G11 antibody comprises: a light chain variable region, wherein the amino acid at position 60 is mutated from Ser (S) to Asp (D) and the amino acid at position 67 is mutated from Ser (S) to Tyr (Y); and a heavy chain variable region, wherein the amino acid at position 24 is mutated from Phe (F) to Val (V), the amino acid at position 49 is mutated from Ala (A) to Gly (G), the amino acid at position 73 is mutated from Thr (T) to Asn (N), and the amino acid at position 83 is mutated from Thr (T) to Asn (N). In one embodiment, the humanized 13C5 antibody comprises: a light chain variable region, wherein the amino acid at position 53 is mutated from Tyr (Y) to Lys (K); and a heavy chain variable region, wherein the amino acid at position 28 is mutated from Thr (T) to Ile (I), the amino acid at position 30 is mutated from Ser (S) to Arg (R), the amino acid at position 49 is mutated from Ser (S) to Ala (A), and the amino acid at position 94 is mutated from Tyr (Y) to Asp (D). Additional or alternative reverse mutations can be made in the framework regions of the humanized antibodies disclosed herein to improve the properties of the antibodies. The present application also includes humanized antibodies that bind to PD-L1 and comprise framework modifications corresponding to the exemplary modifications disclosed herein relative to any suitable framework sequence, as well as other framework modifications that otherwise improve antibody properties.
The present application describes an isolated antibody or a fragment thereof that binds to PD-L1, wherein the antibody can be produced by a hybridoma selected from the group consisting of the hybridomas designated herein as 13C5 and 5G11. The present application further provides isolated polynucleotides encoding the antibodies and the fragments thereof disclosed herein. The present application also includes expression vectors comprising the isolated polynucleotides, and host cells comprising the expression vectors.
The “isolated antibody” refers to an antibody that is substantially free of other antibodies having different antigenic specificities (e.g., an isolated antibody that specifically binds to PD-1 is substantially free of antibodies that specifically bind to antigens apart from PD-1). However, an isolated antibody that specifically binds to PD-1 may have cross-reactivity with other antigens (such as PD-1 molecules from different species). Furthermore, the isolated antibody may be substantially free of other cellular materials and/or chemicals.
The term “monoclonal antibody” (“mAb”) refers to a non-naturally occurring preparation of antibody molecules of an individual molecule component (i.e., antibody molecules whose base sequences are substantially identical and which exhibit a single binding specificity and affinity for a particular epitope). mAb is an example of the isolated antibody. mAbs can be produced by hybridoma techniques, recombinant techniques, transgenic techniques, or other techniques known to those skilled in the art.
The antibody or the antigen-binding fragment thereof described herein is specific for PD-L1. In one embodiment, the antibody or the fragment thereof is specific for PD-L1. In one embodiment, the antibody or the fragment thereof described herein binds to human or primate PD-L1, but does not bind to PD- L1 from any other mammals. In another embodiment, the antibody or the fragment thereof does not bind to mouse PD-L1. The terms “human PD-L1”, “hPD-L1” and “huPD-L1” and the like are used interchangeably herein and refer to human PD-L1 and variants or isotypes of human PD-L1. The terms “specific”, “specificity” and “specifically” refer to that the antibody or fragment thereof binds to PD-L1 with greater affinity than any other targets.
The terms “treat”, “treating” and “treatment” usually refer to acquiring needed pharmacological effect and/or physiological effect. In terms of partially or fully stabilizing or curing the disease and/or a side effect of the disease, the effect can be therapeutic. As used herein, “treat”, “treating” and “treatment” encompass any treatment of a disease in a patient, including (a) inhibiting a symptom of the disease, i.e., blocking the progression of the disease; or (b) alleviating a symptom of the disease, i.e., causing remission of the disease or the symptom.
The term “effective amount” refers to an amount of the compound disclosed herein for (i) treating a specific disease, condition or disorder; (ii) alleviating, ameliorating or eliminating one or more symptoms of a specific disease, condition or disorder, or (iii) preventing or delaying onset of one or more symptoms of the specific disease, condition or disorder described herein. The amount of active substance (e.g., the antibody or compound disclosed herein) constituting the “therapeutically effective amount” may vary according to factors such as the disease state, age, sex, and weight of the individual, and the ability of a therapeutic agent or a combination of therapeutic agents to elicit a desired response in the individual. The effective amount may also be determined routinely by those skilled in the art in accordance with their knowledge and the present disclosure.
The terms “administer”, “administration” and “administering” refer to physically introducing the composition comprising a therapeutic agent to an entity using any of a variety of methods and delivery systems known to those skilled in the art. Routes of administration of immune checkpoint inhibitors (e.g., an anti-PD-1 antibody or an anti-PD-L1 antibody) include parenteral routes of administration (including but not limited to intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, spinal, or other parenteral routes of administration), for example, by injection or infusion. In some emboidments, the phrase “parenteral administration” or “administered parenterally” as used herein are used interchangeably, and typically refer to modes of administration apart from enteral and local administration, typically by injection, including but not limited to, intravenous, intramuscular, intra-arterial, intrathecal, intralymphatic, intralesional, intracapsular, intraorbital, intracardiac, intradermal, intraperitoneal, transtracheal, subcutaneous, subcuticular, intraarticular, subcapsular, subarachnoid, intraspinal, epidural and intrasternal injection and infusion and in vivo electroporation. In some embodiments, the immune checkpoint inhibitor (e.g., an anti-PD-1 antibody or an anti-PD-L1 antibody) is administered by a non-parenteral route, and in some embodiments, by oral administration. Other non-parenteral routes include local, epidermal or mucosal administration route, e.g., intranasal, intravaginal, intrarectal, sublingual or local administration route. Administration may also be performed, e.g., once, multiple times, and/or over one or more extended periods of time.

Endometrial cancer subjects meeting inclusion criteria were first tested for MMR/MSI status by immunohistochemical or PCR methods, and then grouped according to the MSI-H/dMMR test results; for non-MSI-H/non-dMMR subjects, an anti-PD-L1 antibody and anlotinib hydrochloride (cohort I) were administered, while for MSI-H or dMMR subjects, an anti-PD-L1 antibody (cohort II) was administered, and for patients with disease under control (CR + PR + SD) and tolerable adverse reactions, the administration could be continued until clinical benefits were lost, until the toxicity was intolerable, until PD/iCPD was given by efficacy evaluation, or until the investigator deemed further medication inappropriate. Efficacy evaluations were performed every 6 weeks (42 days) ± 3 days, starting on day 1 of treatment cycle 1, and the efficacy evaluations were performed once every 12 weeks (84 days) ± 3 days after 54 weeks, until the subjects developed disease progression confirmed by oncologic imaging.
1) Histologically or cytologically confirmed unresectable recurrent or metastatic advanced endometrial cancer (previously received 1-2 lines of systemic standard chemotherapy and failed or was intolerant; preliminary neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy was allowed).
2) It was confirmed that there was at least one measurable lesion according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1).
3) Age: ≥18 years; ECOG PS scoring: 0-1; an expected survival time of more than 3 months.
Anti-PD-L1 antibody injection hu5G11-hIgG1: 1200 mg of the anti-PD-L1 antibody injection (strength: 600 mg/20 mL) was diluted to 250 mL with normal saline, and the infusion time was 60 ± 10 min (from the beginning of the infusion of the anti-PD-L1 antibody injection until the end of the infusion of the anti-PD-L1 antibody injection and the completion of flushing the tube with normal saline (20 mL recommended)). The anti-PD-L1 antibody injection was administered on the first day, and once every 21 days, that is, 21 days were counted as a treatment cycle (d1/q3w).
Anlotinib hydrochloride capsule (anlotinib dihydrochloride as active ingredient): once daily (orally taken before breakfast), 1 capsule (12 mg) each time. The oral administration was performed for 2 consecutive weeks and interrupted for 1 week, that is, 21 days were counted as a treatment cycle, and the drug was administered on days 1-14 of each cycle. Except in special circumstances, it was recommended to take it at a fixed time every day. (i.e., anlotinib hydrochloride capsule: 12 mg/qd, d1-14/q3w)
The investigator could adjust the dose of the anlotinib hydrochloride capsule, e.g., to 12 mg, 10 mg or 8 mg, according to the disease condition, safety and other aspects.
Safety evaluation criteria: the severity of adverse events was determined using the NCI-CTC AE 5.0 criteria.
Effectiveness evaluation criteria: disease status was determined using RECIST 1.1, iRECIST criteria. RECIST 1.1 criteria were used as the primary criteria, and iRECIST criteria were used to confirm efficacy. That is, subjects determined to be disease progression (PD) according to RECIST 1.1 criteria were further confirmed according to iRECIST criteria to determine whether to take further medication observation.
Primary endpoint: objective response rate (ORR) for IRC evaluation
Secondary endpoint: (1) objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), DOR rate (≥ 6 months), and the like evaluated by investigators; (2) the incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs), and abnormal laboratory test indicators.
