An amino acid modification refers to an amino acid substitution, insertion, and/or deletion in a protein or peptide sequence. An “amino acid substitution” or “substitution” refers to replacement of an amino acid at a particular position in a parent peptide or protein sequence with another amino acid. A substitution can be made to change an amino acid in the resulting protein in a non-conservative manner (i.e., by changing the codon from an amino acid belonging to a grouping of amino acids having a particular size or characteristic to an amino acid belonging to another grouping) or in a conservative manner (i.e., by changing the codon from an amino acid belonging to a grouping of amino acids having a particular size or characteristic to an amino acid belonging to the same grouping). Such a conservative change generally leads to less change in the structure and function of the resulting protein. The following are examples of various groupings of amino acids: 1) Amino acids with nonpolar R groups: Alanine, Valine, Leucine, Isoleucine, Proline, Phenylalanine, Tryptophan, Methionine; 2) Amino acids with uncharged polar R groups: Glycine, Serine, Threonine, Cysteine, Tyrosine, Asparagine, Glutamine; 3) Amino acids with charged polar R groups (negatively charged at pH 6.0): Aspartic acid, Glutamic acid; 4) Basic amino acids (positively charged at pH 6.0): Lysine, Arginine, Histidine (at pH 6.0). Another grouping may be those amino acids with phenyl groups: Phenylalanine, Tryptophan, and Tyrosine.
In some cases, the dual-targeting CAR can be produced using a vector in which the CAR open reading frame is followed by a T2A ribosome skip sequence and a truncated EGFR (EGFRt), which lacks the cytoplasmic signaling tail. In this arrangement, co-expression of EGFRt provides an inert, non-immunogenic surface marker that allows for accurate measurement of gene modified cells, and enables positive selection of gene-modified cells, as well as efficient cell tracking of the therapeutic T cells in vivo following adoptive transfer. Efficiently controlling proliferation to avoid cytokine storm and off-target toxicity is an important hurdle for the success of T cell immunotherapy. The EGFRt incorporated in the dual-targeting CAR lentiviral vector can act as suicide gene to ablate the CAR+T cells in cases of treatment-related toxicity.
A CAR described herein can be produced by any means known in the art, though preferably it is produced using recombinant DNA techniques. Nucleic acids encoding the several regions of the chimeric receptor can be prepared and assembled into a complete coding sequence by standard techniques of molecular cloning known in the art (genomic library screening, overlapping PCR, primer-assisted ligation, site-directed mutagenesis, etc.) as is convenient. The resulting coding region is preferably inserted into an expression vector and used to transform a suitable expression host cell line, preferably a T lymphocyte cell line, and most preferably an autologous T lymphocyte cell line.
Various T cell subsets isolated from the patient can be transduced with a vector for CAR expression. Central memory T cells are one useful T cell subset. Central memory T cell can be isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) by selecting for CD45RO+/CD62L+ cells, using, for example, the CliniMACS® device to immunomagnetically select cells expressing the desired receptors. The cells enriched for central memory T cells can be activated with anti-CD3/CD28, transduced with, for example, a lentiviral vector that directs the expression of a dual-targeting CAR as well as a non-immunogenic surface marker for in vivo detection, ablation, and potential ex vivo selection.
The activated/genetically modified bispecific central memory T cells can be expanded in vitro with IL-2/IL-15 and then cryopreserved. Additional methods of preparing CART cells can be found in PCT/US2016/043392.

In this disclosure the generation and anti-tumor efficacy of CAR comprising an IL-13 and a chlorotoxin are described. The bispecific CAR T cells exhibited potent cytotoxicity against multiple cancer lines. Regional intraperitoneal in vivo delivery of bispecific CAR T cells in GBM murine tumor models conferred elimination of antigen-positive disease and extension of overall survival.
The present disclosure also provides methods for treating subjects with a cancer or tumor expressing a chlorotoxin receptor and/or an IL-13Rα1 and/or IL-13Rα2 and/or IL-4R.
T cells expressing a CAR comprising chlorotoxin (or a variant thereof) and IL-13 (or a variant thereof) can be useful in treatment of cancers such as glioblastoma, as well as other cancers expressing a receptor for chlorotoxin (or a variant thereof) or a receptor for IL-13 (or a variant thereof), which include, but are not limited to: primary brain tumors and gliomas (glioblastoma multiforme WHO Grade IV, anaplastic astrocytoma WHO Grade III, low-grade astrocytoma WHO Grade II, pilocytic astrocytoma WHO Grade I, other ungraded gliomas, oligodendroglioma, gliosarcoma, ganglioglioma, meningioma, ependymona), neuroectodermal tumors (medulloblastoma, neuroblastoma, ganglioneuroma, melanoma (metastatic), melanoma (primary), pheochromocytoma, Ewing's sarcoma, primitive neuroectodermal tumors, small cell lung carcinoma, Schwannoma), other brain tumors (epidermoid cysts, brain tumors of unknown pathology, pituitary gland of glioblastoma multiforme pt., metastatic tumors to brain of unknown tissue origin), other tumors (breast cancer, breast cancer metastases, kidney cancer, kidney cancer metastases, liver cancer, liver cancer metastases, lung cancer, lung cancer metastases, lymphoma, lymphoma metastases, ovarian cancer, ovarian cancer metastases, pancreatic cancer, pancreatic cancer metastases, prostate cancer, prostate cancer metastases, colorectal cancer, colorectal cancer metastases, and combinations thereof), combinations thereof, and the like.
The invention is further described in the following examples, which do not limit the scope of the invention described in the claims.
The following materials and methods were used in the Examples set forth herein. Dual targeting CART cells of this disclosure are generally referred to as CLTX/IL-13 CAR and IL-13/CLTX CAR interchangeably throughout the disclosure and does not specifically indicate the orientation of the two domains.
The GBM cell lines (e.g., PBT-106, PBT-030-2, and PBT-003-4) were cultured in RPMI-1640 (Lonza) containing 20% fetal bovine serum (FBS, Hyclone) and 1× antibiotic-antimycotic (1× AA, Gibco) (complete RPMI). The cancer cell lines were cultured in Dulbecco's Modified Eagles Medium (DMEM, Life Technologies) containing 10% FBS, 1× AA, 25 mM HEPES (Irvine Scientific), and 2 mM L-Glutamine (Fisher Scientific) (complete DMEM). All cells were cultured at 37° C. with 5% CO2.
Tumor cells were engineered to express enhanced green fluorescent protein and firefly luciferase (eGFP/ffluc) by transduction with epHIV7 lentivirus carrying the eGFP/ffluc fusion under the control of the EF1α promoter as described previously (Brown et al, Cancer Res, 2009).
Lentivirus was generated as previously described (Brown et al, Mol Ther, 2018). Briefly, 293T cells were transfected with packaging plasmid and CAR lentiviral backbone plasmid using a modified calcium phosphate method. Viral supernatants were collected after 3 to 4 days and treated with 2 mM magnesium and 25 U/mL Benzonase® endonuclease (EMD Millipore). Supernatants were concentrated via high-speed centrifugation and lentiviral pellets were resuspended in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS)-lactose solution (4 g lactose per 100 mL PBS), aliquoted and stored at −80° C. Lentiviral titers were quantified using HT1080 cells based on CD19t expression or EGFRt expression.
Leukapheresis products were obtained from consented research participants (healthy donors) under protocols approved by the City of Hope Internal Review Board (IRB). On the day of leukapheresis, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated by density gradient centrifugation over Ficoll-Paque (GE Healthcare) followed by multiple washes in PBS/EDTA (Miltenyi Biotec). Cells were rested overnight at room temperature (RT) on a rotator, and subsequently washed and resuspended in X-VIVO T cell medium (Lonza) containing 10% FBS (complete X-VIVO). Up to 5.0×109 PBMC were incubated with anti-CD14 and anti-CD25 microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec) for 30 min at RT and magnetically depleted using the CliniMACS® system (Miltenyi Biotec) according to the manufacturer's protocol and these were termed depleted PBMCs (dPBMC). dPBMC were frozen in CryoStor® CS5 (StemCell Technologies) until further processing.
T cell activation and transduction was performed as described previously (Wang et al, Sci Transl Med, 2020). Briefly, freshly thawed dPBMC were washed once and cultured in complete X-VIVO containing 100 U/mL recombinant human IL-2 (rhIL-2, Novartis Oncology) and 0.5 ng/mL recombinant human IL-15 (rhIL-15, CellGenix). For CAR lentiviral transduction, T cells were cultured with CD3/CD28 Dynabeads® (Life Technologies), protamine sulfate (APP Pharmaceuticals), cytokine mixture (as stated above) and desired lentivirus at a multiplicity or infection (MOI) of 1 the day following bead stimulation. Cells were then cultured in and replenished with fresh complete X-VIVO containing cytokines every 2-3 days. After 7 days, beads were magnetically removed, and cells were further expanded in complete X-VIVO containing cytokines to achieve desired cell yield. CART cells were positively selected for CD19t or EGFRt using the EasySep™ CD19 Positive Enrichment Kit I or II (StemCell Technologies) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Following further expansion, cells were frozen in CryoStor® CS5 prior to in vitro functional assays and in vivo tumor models. Purity and phenotype of CAR T cells were verified by flow cytometry.
For flow cytometric analysis, cells were resuspended in FACS buffer (Hank's balanced salt solution without Ca2+, Mg2+, or phenol red (HBSS−/−, Life Technologies) containing 2% FBS and 1× AA). Cells were incubated with primary antibodies for 30 minutes at 4° C. in the dark. For secondary staining, cells were washed twice prior to 30 min incubation at 4° C. in the dark with either Brilliant Violet 510 (BV510), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), phycoerythrin (PE), peridinin chlorophyll protein complex (PerCP), PerCP-Cy5.5, PE-Cy7, allophycocyanin (APC), or APC-Cy7 (or APC-eFluor780)-conjugated antibodies. Antibodies against CD3 (BD Biosciences, Clone: SK7), CD4 (BD Biosciences, Clone: SK3), CD8 (BD Biosciences, Clone: SK1), CD14 (BD Biosciences, Clone: MΦP9), CD19 (BD Biosciences, Clone: SJ25C1), CD25 (BD Biosciences, Clone: 2A3), mouse CD45 (BioLegend, Clone: 30-F11), CD45 (BD Biosciences, Clone: 2D1), CD69 (BD Biosciences, Clone: L78), CD137 (BD Biosciences, Clone: 4B4-1), MUC1 (BioLegend, Clone 16A), MUC16 (Abcam, Clone X75 or EPSISR23), biotinylated Protein-L (GenScript USA) (25), Fc ( ), Donkey Anti-Rabbit Ig (Invitrogen), Goat Anti-Mouse Ig (BD Biosciences), and/or streptavidin (BD Biosciences) were used. Cell viability was determined using 4′, 6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI, Sigma). Flow cytometry was performed on a MACSQuant Analyzer 10 (Miltenyi Biotec), and the data was analyzed with FlowJo software (v10, TreeStar).
For tumor killing assays, CAR T cells and tumor targets were co-cultured at indicated effector:tumor (E:T) ratios in complete X-VIVO in the absence of exogenous cytokines in 96-well plates for 24 to 72 h and analyzed by flow cytometry as described above. Tumor killing by CAR T cells was calculated by comparing CD45-negative cell counts relative to that observed when targets were co-cultured with Mock (untransduced) T cells. In some embodiments, rechallenge assays, 24-168 hours after completion of the killing assay, CAR T cells and tumor targets were again co-cultured at indicated effector:tumor (E:T) ratios in complete X-VIVO in the absence of exogenous cytokines in 96-well plates for 24 to 72 h and analyzed by flow cytometry as described above. In some embodiments, multiple rechallenge assays follow a killing assay. In a representative initial rechallenge assay, 24-168 hours after completion of the killing assay, CART cells and tumor targets were again co-cultured at indicated effector:tumor (E:T) ratios in complete X-VIVO in the absence of exogenous cytokines in 96-well plates for 24 to 72 h and analyzed by flow cytometry as described above. Afterwards, one or more subsequent rechallenge assays were conducted 24-168 hours after completion of the initial rechallenge assay, CART cells and tumor targets were again co-cultured at indicated effector:tumor (E:T) ratios in complete X-VIVO in the absence of exogenous cytokines in 96-well plates for 24 to 72 h and analyzed by flow cytometry as described above.
All animal experiments were performed under protocols approved by the City of Hope Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. For in vivo tumor studies, GBM cells (5.0×106) were prepared in a final volume of 500 μl HBSS−/− and engrafted in 6 to 8 week old female NSG mice by injection. In some embodiments, engraftment comprises intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection, subcutantous (s.c.) injection, or intravenous (i.v.) injection. Tumor growth was monitored at least once a week via biophotonic imaging (Xenogen, LagoX) and flux signals were analyzed with Living Image software (Xenogen). For imaging, mice were i.p. injected with 150 μL D-luciferin potassium salt (Perkin Elmer) suspended in PBS at 4.29 mg/mouse. Once flux signals reached desired levels, day 8 for OV90 and day 14 for OVCAR3, T cells were prepared in 1× PBS, and mice were treated with 500 μL i.p. or 200 μL intravenous (i.v.) injection of 5.0×106 Mock or Cltx/IL-13 CAR T cells. In the GBM tumor model, we tested the impact of repeat treatment with i.v. Cltx/IL-13 CAR T cells starting at day 4. In some embodiments, this was followed by treatments at additional indicated days post tumor engraftment. Humane endpoints were used in determining survival. Mice were euthanized upon signs of distress such as a distended belly due to ascites, labored or difficulty breathing, apparent weight loss, impaired mobility, or evidence of being moribund. At pre-determined time points or at moribund status, mice were euthanized and tissues and/or ascites fluid were harvested and processed for flow cytometry and/or immunohistochemistry as described below.
Peripheral blood was collected from isoflurane-anesthetized mice by retro-orbital (RO) bleed through heparinized capillary tubes (Chase Scientific) into polystyrene tubes containing a heparin/PBS solution (1000 units/mL, Sagent Pharmaceuticals). Volume of each RO blood draw (approximately 120 μL/mouse) was recorded for cell quantification per 4 blood. Red blood cells (RBCs) were lysed with 1× Red Cell Lysis Buffer (Sigma) according to the manufacturer's protocol and then washed, stained, and analyzed by flow cytometry as described above. Cells from i.p. ascites fluid was collected from euthanized mice by injecting 5 mL cold 1× PBS into the i.p. cavity, which was drawn up via syringe and stored on ice until further processing. RBC-depleted ascites was washed, stained, and analyzed by flow cytometry for tumor-associated glycoprotein expression and CAR T cells using antibodies and methods described above.
The studies described below show that dual-targeting CAR can be stably expressed on primary T cells.
A number of bispecific CAR constructs were designed (
Four representative CLTX/IL-13 CAR constructs differ in the orientations between CLTX and IL-13 tumor-targeting domains and/or the linker between these two domains (
In some embodiments, CLTX/IL-13 CAR lentivirus was used to transduce human healthy donor-derived peripheral blood mononuclear cells depleted of CD14+ and CD25+ cells (dPBMC) and/or TCM/SCM/N cells, as previously described (Priceman S J, Gerdts E A, Tilakawardane D, Kennewick K T, Murad J P, Park A K, Jeang B, Yamaguchi Y, Yang X, Urak R, Weng L, Chang W C, Wright S, Pal S, Reiter R E, Wu A M, Brown C E, Forman S J.

After 24 hours, T cell-mediated killing activity was evident with all four of the bispecific CAR T cells in the GBM tumor cell lines (PBT003-4 in
Experiments also tested effector potency of dual-targeting CAR T cells with different intracellular signaling domains. A schematic diagram of representative dual-targeting CAR constructs differing in intracellular co-stimulatory domains, including CD28 and 41BB, is shown in
Using flow cytometry, we then tested for the killing of tumor cells (% specific lysis) of GBM tumor cells (including PBT030-2 and PBT106 cells) after 48 hours. Tumor cells were co-cultured with the indicated bispecific CAR T cells at an effector:target ratio=1:4 (4,000 T cells, 16,000 target cells) for 48 hours, and killing percentages were calculated by comparing with tumor cells numbers co-cultured with the same amount of mock T cells. The results show percentages of tumor cells killed by the dual-targeting CAR T cells. Both the CAR T cells with the CD28 domain and the CAR T cells with 41BB domain effectively killed GBM tumor cells (including PBT030-2 and PBT106 cells) (
All bispecific CAR T cells used herein led to effective, potent, and/or sustained killing of one or more of the GBM tumor cells lines.
To evaluate therapeutic potential and in vivo efficacy of representative dual-targeting CAR T cells to selectively target and eliminate tumor cells an in vivo model, CLTX/IL-13 CAR T cells were delivered to a huGBM mouse model, and tumor size and survival was evaluated over time.
Experiments were conducted to show the antitumor effect of dual-targeting CAR T cells against orthotopic GBM xenograft. A schematic shows a representative model used herein: PBT106 orthotopic xenograft generation and CAR T cell treatment in NSG mice (
Survival of GBM-bearing mice receiving different treatments was plotted over a 256-day monitoring period (
Additionally, tumor growth in each group of mice was monitored through bioluminescent imaging (
