The titer estimate is based on the net amount of bispecific antibody generated after Protein A purification. FIG. 12B shows solution profile analysis of Protein A purified αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 bispecific antibody by Size Exclusion Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography (SE-UPLC). The major peak with retention time=3.596 corresponds to monomeric form of the intact bispecific antibody constructs and is ˜85% of all the species noted. Peaks with retention time 2.980 and 3.142 are higher molecular weight species of the bispecific antibody construct. FIG. 12C shows SDS-PAGE analysis of Protein A purified αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 bispecific antibody. The samples were analyzed under reducing (R) and non-reducing (NR) conditions. Two bands are observed under reducing conditions, top band corresponding to the molecular weight of the heavy chain and lower band corresponding to the molecular weight of the light chain. Under non-reducing conditions only one band was observed corresponding to the molecular weight of the intact bispecific antibody construct. FIG. 12D shows intact-mass analysis of Protein A purified αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 bispecific antibody. The sample was reduced and de-glycosylated before analyzing the mass. Both the heavy chain (upper panel) and light chain (lower panel) exhibited a major peak corresponding to theoretical molecular mass based on the amino acid sequence. The second peak observed in the upper panel corresponds to a glycosylated heavy chain species arising from in-complete de-glycosylation. FIG. 12 E shows binding affinity measurement of αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 bispecific antibody toward TROP2 and TRAIL-R2 antigen. The binding affinity was measured by ELISA. The binding affinity for TROP2 antigen expressed on cancer cell was KD=0.0024 nM and binding affinity for TRAIL-R2 expressed on immunosuppressor cell was KD=0.22 nM. Rabbit anti-TROP2 and anti-TRAIL-R2 antibodies bound TROP2 and TRAIL-R2 antigens, respectively with binding affinity, KD, 0.004 nM and 0.0009 nM. The non-binding human IgG1 isotype control did not bind to TROP2 and TRAIL-R2 antigens.

There was a concentration dependent increase in fluorescence intensity by αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 in U937. In contrast, there was no concentration dependent increase in fluorescence intensity by Herceptin in U937 suggesting it did not bind U937. Herceptin, a therapeutic antibody which is known to bind HER2 antigen did not bind on the surface of U937, which is known not to express HER2. FIG. 13E shows no binding of αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 bispecific antibody on the surface of a TROP2and TRAIL-R2cell line, THP1.

There was no concentration dependent increase in fluorescence intensity suggesting neither αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 nor Herceptin bound THP1. FIG. 13F shows low levels of TRAIL-R2 and no detectable levels of expression of TROP2 in U937 cell line. Rabbit anti-TRAIL-R2 antibody bound the surface of U937 as measured by detectable level of fluorescent signal.

FIG. 13G shows there is no detectable expression of TRAIL-R2 and TROP2 in U937. Rabbit anti-TRAIL-R2 antibody and mouse anti-TROP2 antibody did not bind the surface of U937 as detected by no fluorescent signal. Both rabbit and mouse antibody isotype controls did not bind the surface of U937.

The samples are analysed on a Waters Acquity Protein BEH SEC 125 A 1.7 μm column using PBS with 10% isopropanol as the mobile phase. A single major peak corresponding to the molecular weight of the monomer bispecific antibody assembly was observed for both αTROP2×αCD33 and αTROP2×αCSF1R suggesting there is no presence of low molecular and high molecular aggregates indicating stability. The major peak for αTROP2×αCD163 corresponding to the molecular weight of the monomer bispecific antibody assembly was 81% with a preceding shoulder corresponding to possible high molecular weight forms.



FIG. 16 shows SDS-PAGE analysis of Protein A purified αTROP2×αCD33, αTROP2×αCSF1R and αTROP2×αCD163 bispecific antibody. The samples were analyzed under reducing (R) and non-reducing (NR) conditions.

FIG. 20A-FIG. 20D show target mediated selective binding of αTROP2×αCD33 bispecific antibody on the surface of cancer cells measured by Fluorescent Activated Cell Sorting method (FACS). FIG. 20A shows selective binding of αTROP2×αCD33 bispecific antibody on the surface of a TROP2+ cancer cell line, SKBR3, with a binding affinity, KD=2.7 nM (0.55 μg/ml). The non-binding IgG1 isotype control did not bind on the surface of SKBR3. As a system control Herceptin bound on the surface of SKBR3 with a binding affinity, KD=4.1 nM (0.62 μg/ml) due to high expression of HER2 as manifested by high fluorescence intensity compared to the binding of αTROP2×αCD33. FIG. 20B shows selective binding of αTROP2×αCD33 bispecific antibody on the surface of a CD33+ cancer cell line, THP1, with a binding affinity, KD=6.7 nM (1.33 μg/ml). There was a concentration dependent increase in fluorescence intensity for αTROP2×αCD33. In contrast neither the non-binding IgG1 isotype control nor Herceptin exhibited any concentration dependent increase in fluorescence intensity in THP1 suggestion neither of the antibodies bound THP1. FIG. 20C shows high levels of TROP2 expressed on the surface of SKBR3 cell line. The non-binding rabbit antibody isotype control did not bind on the surface of SKBR3 cell line as detected by low fluorescent signal. FIG. 20D shows high levels of CD33 expressed on the surface of THP1 cell line. The non-binding rabbit antibody isotype control did not bind on the surface of THP1 cell line as detected by no fluorescent signal.



FIG. 21A illustrates a cartoon representation of a TRAIL-R2 mediated activation on a target cancer cell which is selectively activated by a multi-specific antibody disclosed herein. As shown in this figure, the multi-specific antibody binds to a tumor specific antigen located in the lipid raft which recruits and facilitates oligomerization (e.g., dimerization) of the TRAIL-R2 and subsequent activation of the TRAIL-R2 mediated apoptosis within the target cancer cell.



FIG. 21B illustrates a cartoon representation of an exemplary multi-specific antibody that binds to a tumor specific antigen located outside of the lipid raft of a target cancer cell. The exemplary multi-specific antibody, upon binding to the tumor specific antigen, does not activate the TRAIL-R2 mediated apoptosis within the target cancer cell.



FIG. 21C illustrates a cartoon representation of a conventional antibody such as the single action bispecific antibody illustrated in FIG. 1C which generates non-tumor toxicity due to leakage of inflammatory cytokines, granzymes, and/or performs to nearby normal cells and tissues. As shown in this figure, upon recruiting an immune effector cell to a cancer cell and activation of the immune effector cell by the conventional antibody, the activated immune effector cells not only secretes soluble TRAILs that can lead to activation of apoptosis within the cancer cell via the TRAIL-R2 pathway, but can also release cytokine, granzymes, and/or performs which leakage to nearby normal cells leads to non-tumor toxicity.



FIG. 21D illustrates a cartoon representation of an exemplary multi-specific antibody which modulates TRAIL-R2 mediated apoptosis of the cancer cell and does not activate immune effector cells. As shown in this figure, the lack of immune effector cell activation minimizes or prevents the release of inflammatory cytokines, granzymes, and/or performs, and as such, reduces or inhibits toxicity to nearby normal cells or tissues.



FIG. 22 illustrates no cell killing by an exemplary multi-specific antibody in a TRAIL-sensitive MDAMB231 cell line.





DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DISCLOSURE
Tumor Microenvironment and Immune Suppression

The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays an integral part in tumor progression, tumor cell adaptation, and resistance to anti-cancer therapy. Components of the tumor microenvironments include myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), antigen-presenting cells (APCs), lymphocytes, neutrophils, tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), fibroblasts, extracellular matrix composed of collagen and proteoglycans, and soluble factors (e.g., cytokines and growth factors), all of which may assist or hinder antitumor immune responses. Immunotherapy harnesses the immune system, both innate and adaptive, to attack and destroy tumor cells. However, multiple mechanisms used by tumor cells, including alteration of the antigen presentation machinery, secretion of immune suppressive factors that can induce apoptosis of lymphocytes, or activate negative regulatory pathways, resulting in evasion from anti-tumor immune response, thereby limiting the effectiveness of the immune response.


Exemplary immune suppressive factors and cells include CD4+ T regulatory (Treg) cells, MDSCs, TAMs, and inhibitory immune checkpoint molecules. In some embodiments, Treg cells are characterized with expression of FOXP3, CD4, and CD25. In some embodiments, Treg cells suppress T-effector cell responses via secretion of inhibitory cytokines (e.g., IL-10, IL-35, and TGF-β) or via direct cell contact.


Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are a heterogeneous group of immune cells originated from bone marrow stem cells. MDSCs normally differentiate into granulocytes, macrophages, or dendritic cells. However, in the tumor microenvironment, MDSCs become activated, expand rapidly, but remain undifferentiated. In some embodiments, MDSCs have been shown in clinical studies to be associated with reduced survival in several human tumors including colorectal cancer and breast cancer.


Macrophages, a plentiful myeloid derived phagocytic cell, can be classified as pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory, also known as classic (M1) and alternative (M2). TAMs are a subset of macrophages that affect responses to immunotherapy and coordinate tumor-promoting angiogenesis, fibrous stroma deposition, and metastasis formation. TAMs display an alternatively activated M2 phenotype known to control tissue homeostasis and wound healing. However, in a tumor setting, this phenotype enables T cell inhibition via cytokines (e.g., IL-10), depletion of metabolites (e.g., expression of arginase, IDO), and/or by contact inhibition (e.g., via PD-L1).


Cancer therapies focus in eliminating cancer cells either directly or by engaging the body's immune system (also see FIG. 1C). For example, therapies such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, antibody drug conjugates, CAR-Ts, or BiTEs are designed to directly eliminate cancer cells while immunotherapies such as immunecheckpoint inhibitors block certain immunecheckpoint receptors on cancer cells or T-cells to activate T-cells to eliminate cancer cells. Immuno-oncology strategies involving bispecific antibodies are also designed to eliminate cancer cells by engaging or harnessing T-cells or NK-cells. Indeed, there are 86 clinical trials evaluating bispecific antibodies and all of them are designed to engage and/or activate the immune system. As such, these cancer treatment modalities only target and kill tumor cells and do not address the immunosuppressive cells.


Disclosed herein, in certain embodiments, are multi-specific polypeptide molecules (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) that comprise a first binding moiety specific for a tumor-associated antigen or receptor expressed on a tumor cell, and a second binding moiety specific for a receptor or antigen expressed on an immunosuppressive cell.

Multi-Specific Binding Polypeptide Structures

Disclosed herein are multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) that comprise a tumor binding moiety that specifically binds to a tumor-associated antigen and an immune cell binding moiety that specifically binds to an antigen expressed on an immunosuppressive cell. In some instances, the multi-specific binding polypeptide (e.g., the multi-specific antibody) binds to and modulate killing of a cancer cell and binds to and modulate killing of an immunosuppressor cell. Also see FIG. 1D. In some instances, the multi-specific binding polypeptide comprises a single polypeptide complex comprising at least two distinct non-overlapping binding domains, each of the distinct binding domains being specific for distinct non-overlapping antigens or epitopes. The antigen or epitope can be on different molecules (e.g., different proteins), or non-overlapping portions of the same molecule. A single polypeptide complex encompasses single polypeptides, polypeptides that dimerize or multimerize to form a binding unit (e.g., heavy chain and light chain of an IgG, two heavy chain and light chain pairs forming a mature IgG), polypeptides that are distinct but held together by covalent (e.g., disulfide bonds, linker molecules) or non-covalent interactions (e.g., biotin-streptavidin; affinity interactions; charge interactions, knob-in-hole).


The multi-specific binding polypeptides described herein, in certain embodiments, comprise antibodies or binding fragments of antibodies. Among the provided multi-specific binding polypeptides are monoclonal antibodies, multi-specific antibodies, for example, bispecific antibodies, and antibody fragments. The antibodies include antibody-conjugates and molecules comprising the antibodies, such as chimeric molecules. Thus, an antibody includes, but is not limited to, full-length and native antibodies, as well as fragments and portion thereof retaining the binding specificities thereof, such as any specific binding portion thereof including those having any number of, immunoglobulin classes and/or isotypes (e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgM, IgA, IgD, IgE and IgM); and biologically relevant (antigen-binding) fragments or specific binding portions thereof, including but not limited to Fab, F(ab′)2, Fv, and scFv (single chain or related entity). A monoclonal antibody is generally one within a composition of substantially homogeneous antibodies; thus, any individual antibodies comprised within the monoclonal antibody composition are identical except for possible naturally occurring mutations that may be present in minor amounts. A polyclonal antibody is a preparation that includes different antibodies of varying sequences that generally are directed against two or more different determinants (epitopes). The monoclonal antibody can comprise a human IgG1 constant region. The monoclonal antibody can comprise a human IgG4 constant region.


In some embodiments, a multi-specific antibody described herein comprises a full-length antibody, an appended antibody, a bispecific fusion protein, or a bispecific antibody conjugate.

In some cases, the multi-specific antibody comprises an appended antibody. In some cases, the multi-specific antibody comprises a bispecific fusion protein. In some cases, the multi-specific antibody comprises a bispecific antibody conjugate. In some cases, the multi-specific antibody comprises an appended antibody further comprising a conjugate (e.g., a payload such as a cytotoxic moiety).


The multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., the multi-specific antibody) of the current disclosure have certain structural attributes. FIG. 1A shows a specific non-limiting embodiment of one such multi-specific binding polypeptide (e.g., a multi-specific antibody). The polypeptide minimally comprises a first binding moiety that binds a tumor-associated antigen. This binding moiety comprises, for example, a VH/VL pair of a monoclonal antibody specific for the tumor-associated antigen. The polypeptide also comprises a second binding moiety comprising a single-chain variable region (scFv) that binds to an antigen expressed on an immunosuppressive cell.

The affinities of the tumor binding moiety and the immune cell binding moiety can be tuned to reduce off-target cytotoxic effects.

In certain embodiments, the affinity of the tumor binding moiety is less than about 50 nanomolar, about 40 nanomolar, about 30 nanomolar, about 20 nanomolar, about 10 nanomolar, about 5 nanomolar, about 4 nanomolar, about 3 nanomolar, about 2 nanomolar, or about 1 nanomolar. In certain embodiments, the affinity of the immune cell binding moiety is greater than about 1 nanomolar, about 2 nanomolar, about 3 nanomolar, about 4 nanomolar, about 5 nanomolar, about 10 nanomolar, about 20 nanomolar, about 30 nanomolar, about 40 nanomolar, about 50 nanomolar, or about 100 nanomolar.

In certain embodiments, when the multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) of the current disclosure are conjugated to cytotoxic payloads they have an EC50 of killing (e.g., at least about 75%) of a tumor cell of less than about 100 nanomolar, less than about 75 nanomolar, less than about 50 nanomolar, less than about 25 nanomolar, less than about 10 nanomolar, less than about 5 nanomolar. In certain embodiments, when the multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) of the current disclosure are conjugated to cytotoxic payloads they have an EC50 of killing (e.g., at least about 75%) of an immunosuppressive cell of less than about 100 nanomolar, less than about 75 nanomolar, less than about 50 nanomolar, less than about 25 nanomolar, less than about 10 nanomolar, less than about 5 nanomolar.


In some embodiments, the multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) are altered to increase or decrease their glycosylation (e.g., by altering the amino acid sequence such that one or more glycosylation sites are created or removed). A carbohydrate attached to an Fc region of an antibody may be altered. Native antibodies from mammalian cells typically comprise a branched, biantennary oligosaccharide attached by an N-linkage to Asn297 of the CH2 domain of the Fc region (See e.g., Wright et al. TIBTECH 15:26-32 (1997)). The oligosaccharide can be various carbohydrates, e.g., mannose, N-acetyl glucosamine (GlcNAc), galactose, sialic acid, fucose attached to a GlcNAc in the stem of the biantennar oligosaccharide structure. Modifications of the oligosaccharide in an antibody can be made, for example, to create antibody variants with certain improved properties. Antibody glycosylation variants can have improved ADCC and/or CDC function. In some embodiments, antibody variants are provided having a carbohydrate structure that lacks fucose attached (directly or indirectly) to an Fc region. For example, the amount of fucose in such antibody may be from 1% to 80%, from 1% to 65%, from 5% to 65% or from 20% to 40%. The amount of fucose is determined by calculating the average amount of fucose within the sugar chain at Asn297, relative to the sum of all glycostructures attached to Asn297 (See e.g., WO 08/077546). Asn297 refers to the asparagine residue located at about position 297 in the Fc region (EU numbering of Fc region residues; See e.g., Edelman et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 1969 May; 63(1):78-85). However, Asn297 may also be located about ±3 amino acids upstream or downstream of position 297, i.e., between positions 294 and 300, due to minor sequence variations in antibodies. Such fucosylation variants can have improved ADCC function (See e.g., Okazaki et al. J. Mol. Biol. 336:1239-1249 (2004); and Yamane-Ohnuki et al. Biotech. Bioeng. 87: 614 (2004)). Cell lines, e.g., knockout cell lines and methods of their use can be used to produce defucosylated antibodies, e.g., Lec13 CHO cells deficient in protein fucosylation and alpha-1,6-fucosyltransferase gene (FUT8) knockout CHO cells (See e.g., Ripka et al. Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 249:533-545 (1986); Yamane-Ohnuki et al. Biotech. Bioeng. 87: 614 (2004); Kanda, Y. et al., Biotechnol. Bioeng., 94(4):680-688 (2006)).

In some embodiments, one or more amino acid modifications may be introduced into the Fc region of the multi-specific binding polypeptides provided herein, thereby generating an Fc region variant. An Fc region herein is a C-terminal region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain that contains at least a portion of the constant region. An Fc region includes native sequence Fc regions and variant Fc regions. The Fc region variant may comprise a human Fc region sequence (e.g., a human IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 or IgG4 Fc region) comprising an amino acid modification (e.g., a substitution) at one or more amino acid positions.


In some embodiments, the multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) of this disclosure comprise Fc variants that possess some but not all effector functions, which make it a desirable candidate for applications in which the half-life of the antibody in vivo is important yet certain effector functions (such as complement and ADCC) are unnecessary or deleterious. In vitro and/or in vivo cytotoxicity assays can be conducted to confirm the reduction/depletion of CDC and/or ADCC activities. For example, Fc receptor (FcR) binding assays can be conducted to ensure that the antibody lacks FcγR binding (hence likely lacking ADCC activity), but retains FcRn binding ability. Non-limiting examples of in vitro assays to assess ADCC activity of a molecule of interest is described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,500,362 and 5,821,337. Alternatively, non-radioactive assays methods may be employed (e.g., ACTI™ and CytoTox 96® non-radioactive cytotoxicity assays). Useful effector cells for such assays include peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), monocytes, macrophages, and Natural Killer (NK) cells.


Antibodies and multi-specific binding polypeptides can have increased half-lives and improved binding to the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) (See e.g., US 2005/0014934).

A cell line comprising the nucleic acid encoding the multi-specific binding polypeptide can then be cultured under suitable conditions such that the multi-specific binding polypeptide is expressed and secreted into the cell supernatant. The cell supernatant can be subjected to one or more steps that include filtration, centrifugation, precipitation, purification by ion exchange, protein A/G affinity, dialysis, desalting, or buffer exchange.


In some embodiments, an expression vector comprising the nucleotide sequence of a multi-specific binding polypeptide is transferred to a host cell by conventional techniques (e.g., viral transduction, electroporation, liposomal transfection, calcium phosphate precipitation), and the transfected cells are then cultured to produce the multi-specific binding polypeptide. In specific embodiments, the expression of the multi-specific binding polypeptide is regulated by a constitutive, an inducible, or a tissue specific promoter.


In some embodiments, a variety of host-expression vector systems are utilized to express a multi-specific binding polypeptide described herein. Such host-expression systems represent vehicles, by which the coding sequences of the multi-specific binding polypeptide (e.g., multi-specific antibody) is produced and subsequently purified, but also represent cells that are, when transformed or transfected with the appropriate nucleotide coding sequences, express an multi-specific binding polypeptide in situ. These include, but are not limited to, microorganisms such as bacteria (e.g., E. coli and B. subtilis) transformed with recombinant bacteriophage DNA, plasmid DNA or cosmid DNA expression vectors containing multi-specific binding polypeptide coding sequences; yeast (e.g., Saccharomyces Pichia) transformed with recombinant yeast expression vectors containing multi-specific binding polypeptide coding sequences; insect cell systems infected with recombinant virus expression vectors (e.g., baculovirus) containing multi-specific binding polypeptide coding sequences; plant cell systems infected with recombinant virus expression vectors (e.g., cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) and tobacco mosaic virus (TMV)) or transformed with recombinant plasmid expression vectors (e.g., Ti plasmid) containing multi-specific binding polypeptide coding sequences; or mammalian cell systems (e.g., COS, CHO, BH, 293, 293T, 3T3 cells) harboring recombinant expression constructs containing promoters derived from the genome of mammalian cells (e.g., metallothionein promoter) or from mammalian viruses (e.g. the adenovirus late promoter; the vaccinia virus 7.5K promoter).


For long-term, high-yield production of recombinant proteins, stable expression is preferred. In some embodiments, cell lines that stably express a multi-specific binding polypeptide (e.g., a multi-specific antibody) are optionally engineered. Rather than using expression vectors that contain viral origins of replication, host cells are transformed with DNA controlled by appropriate expression control elements (e.g., promoter, enhancer, sequences, transcription terminators, polyadenylation sites, etc.), and a selectable marker. Following the introduction of the foreign DNA, engineered cells are then allowed to grow for 1-2 days in an enriched media, and then are switched to a selective media. The selectable marker in the recombinant plasmid confers resistance to the selection and allows cells to stably integrate the plasmid into their chromosomes and grow to form foci that in turn are cloned and expanded into cell lines. This method can advantageously be used to engineer cell lines which express the multi-specific binding polypeptide.


In some embodiments, a number of selection systems are used, including but not limited to the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (Wigler et al., 1977, Cell 11:223), hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (Szybalska & Szybalski, 192, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 48:202), and adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (Lowy et al., 1980, Cell 22:817) genes are employed in tk-, hgprt- or aprt-cells, respectively. Also, antimetabolite resistance are used as the basis of selection for the following genes: dhfr, which confers resistance to methotrexate (Wigler et al., 1980, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 77:357; O'Hare et al., 1981, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 78:1527); gpt, which confers resistance to mycophenolic acid (Mulligan & Berg, 1981, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 78:2072); neo, which confers resistance to the aminoglycoside G-418 (Clinical Pharmacy 12:488-505; Wu and Wu, 1991, Biotherapy 3:87-95; Tolstoshev, 1993, Ann. Rev. Pharmacol. Toxicol. 32:573-596; Mulligan, 1993, Science 260:926-932; and Morgan and Anderson, 1993, Ann. Rev. Biochem. 62:191-217; May, 1993, TIB TECH 11(5):155-215) and hygro, which confers resistance to hygromycin (Santerre et al., 1984, Gene 30:147). Methods commonly known in the art of recombinant DNA technology which can be used are described in Ausubel et al. (eds., 1993, Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, John Wiley & Sons, NY; Kriegler, 1990, Gene Transfer and Expression, A Laboratory Manual, Stockton Press, NY; and in Chapters 12 and 13, Dracopoli et al. (eds), 1994, Current Protocols in Human Genetics, John Wiley & Sons, NY.; Colberre-Garapin et al., 1981, J. Mol. Biol. 150:1).


In some embodiments, the expression levels of a multi-specific binding polypeptide (e.g., a multi-specific antibody) are increased by vector amplification (for a review, see Bebbington and Hentschel, The use of vectors based on gene amplification for the expression of cloned genes in mammalian cells in DNA cloning, Vol. 3. (Academic Press, New York, 1987)). When a marker in the vector system expressing a multi-specific binding polypeptide is amplifiable, an increase in the level of inhibitor present in culture of host cell will increase the number of copies of the marker gene. Since the amplified region is associated with the nucleotide sequence of the multi-specific binding polypeptide, production of the multi-specific binding polypeptide will also increase (Crouse et al., 1983, Mol. Cell Biol. 3:257).


In some embodiments, the multi-specific binding polypeptide (e.g., multi-specific antibody) is produced under a cell-free system. In some embodiments, a cell-free system comprises a mixture of cytoplasmic and/or nuclear components from a cell and is suitable for in vitro nucleic acid synthesis. In some embodiments, a cell-free system utilizes prokaryotic cell components. In other embodiments, a cell-free system utilizes eukaryotic cell components. Nucleic acid synthesis is obtained in a cell-free system based on, for example, Drosophila cell, Xenopus egg, Archaea, or HeLa cells. Exemplary cell-free systems include E. coli S30 Extract system, E. coli T7 S30 system, or PURExpress®, XpressCF, and XpressCF+.

In some instances, a 6-amino acid consensus sequence is incorporated into the heavy chain, light chain, or both chains of the multi-specific antibody (optionally the bispecific antibody) for recognition by the FGE to generate a functional aldehyde group for site-specific conjugation to the payload. In some instances, the 6-amino acid consensus sequence is LCXPXR, wherein X is any amino acid. In some cases, the 6-amino acid consensus sequence is incorporated into the N-terminus, C-terminus, or within a Fc region of the multi-specific antibody (optionally the bispecific antibody). (see Wu et al., “Site-specific chemical modification of recombinant proteins produced in mammalian cells by using the genetically encoded aldehyde tag,” PNAS 106(9): 3000-3005 (2009); Agarwal, et al., “A Pictet-Spengler ligation for protein chemical modification,” PNAS 110(1): 46-51 (2013)).


In some instances, the enzyme-catalyzed process comprises microbial transglutaminase (mTG). In some cases, a multi-specific binding polypeptide described herein (e.g., a multi-specific antibody, optionally a bispecific antibody) is conjugated to a payload described supra utilizing a microbial transglutaminze catalyzed process. In some instances, mTG catalyzes the formation of a covalent bond between the amide side chain of a glutamine within the recognition sequence and a primary amine of a functionalized multi-specific binding polypeptide (e.g., a functionalized multi-specific antibody, optionally a functionalized bispecific antibody). In some instances, mTG is produced from Streptomyces mobarensis. (see Strop et al., “Location matters: site of conjugation modulates stability and pharmacokinetics of antibody drug conjugates,” Chemistry and Biology 20(2) 161-167 (2013)).


In some instances, a multi-specific binding polypeptide described herein (e.g., a multi-specific antibody, optionally a bispecific antibody) is conjugated to a payload described supra by a method as described in PCT Publication No. WO2014/140317, which utilizes a sequence-specific transpeptidase.


In some instances, a multi-specific binding polypeptide described herein (e.g., a multi-specific antibody, optionally a bispecific antibody) is conjugated to a payload described supra by a method as described in U.S. Patent Publication Nos. 2015/0105539 and 2015/0105540.

In certain embodiments, a subject is selected for treatment with the multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) described herein after receiving a checkpoint inhibitor therapy. In certain embodiments, a subject is selected for treatment with the multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) described herein after failing a checkpoint inhibitor therapy. In certain embodiments, failing a checkpoint inhibitor therapy is a lack of a complete response (e.g., complete reduction of tumor or signs of cancer). In certain embodiments, failing a checkpoint inhibitor therapy is a lack of an objective response (e.g., lack of measurable tumor shrinkage or reduction in signs of cancer). In certain embodiments, the multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) are for use in a method to treat a subject that has been administered one or more previous immune checkpoint inhibitor treatments. In certain embodiments, subjects are selected for treatment with the multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) provided herein based upon low expression or an absence of expression of an immune checkpoint inhibitor. In certain embodiments, subjects are selected for treatment with the multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) provided herein based upon low expression or an absence of expression of PD-1, PDL-1, PDL-2, CTLA4, LAG-3, TIM-3, KIR, VISTA or other immune checkpoint receptors. Low expression or absent expression can be suitably determined using methods such as immunohistochemistry, flow-cytometry, RT-PCR, RNA-Seq, ELISA or western blot. Exemplary assays for PDL-1 diagnostic purposes are known, and, for example, can be found in Udall et al. Diagn Pathol. 2018; 13: 12. In some embodiments, the subject is insensitive to treatment with an immune checkpoint inhibitor, has failed to respond to treatment with an immune checkpoint inhibitor, or who expresses low level of or does not express an immune checkpoint protein. In some instances, the multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) described herein are administered to the subject in conjugation with an immune checkpoint modulator, e.g., simultaneously with an immune checkpoint modulator or sequentially with an immune checkpoint modulator.


The choice of tumor associated antigen (TAA) and immune cell binding moiety of the multi-specific binding polypeptide can be dependent upon the type of cancer treated. Table 6 lists some specific cancers and antigen choices. In certain embodiments, a multi-specific binding polypeptide to treat the indicated cancer comprises the binding specificities listed in Table 6.

Tumor Cell Killing by TRAIL-R2-Mediated Apoptosis

TRAIL receptor 2 (also referred to as TRAIL-R2, death receptor 5, DR5, tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 10B, or TNFRSF10B), is a cell surface receptor of the Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-receptor superfamily that binds to TRAIL and mediates apoptosis via an intracellular Death Domain (DD). In some instances, oligomerization of TRAIL-R2 occurs prior to activation of the apoptotic signaling pathway. As utilized herein, oligomerization of TRAIL-R2 encompasses two or more TRAIL-R2 monomers, optionally two, three, four, five, six, or more TRAIL-R2 monomers. In some cases, TRAIL-R2 dimerization occurs prior to activation of the apoptotic signaling pathway. In such cases, oligomerization (e.g., dimerization) is facilitated by a disulfide bond between, e.g., Cys209 of each TRAIL-R2 monomer.


In some embodiments, oligomerization of TRAIL-R2 occurs in a lipid raft of a target cell. In some instances, two or more TRAIL-R2 monomers, optionally two, three, four, five, six, or more TRAIL-R2 monomers oligomerizes in the lipid raft. In such instances and upon oligomerization, the apoptotic signaling pathway is activated within the target cell. In some cases, dimerization of the TRAIL-R2 occurs in a lipid raft of the target cell, optionally facilitated by a disulfide bond between, e.g., Cys209 of each TRAIL-R2 monomer. In some cases, the apoptotic signaling pathway is activated after dimerization of the TRAIL-R2 in the lipid raft. In some cases, the target cell is a cancer cell. Also see FIG. 21A and FIG. 21B. FIG. 21A illustrates an exemplary multi-specific antibody that interacts with a tumor-associated antigen located within a lipid raft of a cancer cell which facilitates recruitment and oligomerization (e.g., dimerization) of the TRAIL-R2 within the lipid raft for subsequent activation of the apoptotic signaling pathway. FIG. 21B illustrates an exemplary multi-specific antibody that interacts with a tumor-associated antigen located outside the lipid raft of a cancer cell, which upon binding by the antibody does not activate the TRAIL-R2 mediated apoptotic signaling pathway.


In some embodiments, a multi-specific binding polypeptide (e.g., a multi-specific antibody) described herein comprises a first binding moiety that binds to a receptor on a target cell and a second binding moiety that binds to TRAIL-R2 expressed on the same target cell. In some instances, the multi-specific binding polypeptide (e.g., the multi-specific antibody) does not activate immune cells (e.g., immune effector cells). In such instances, the activation of the immune cells decreases or prevents toxicity associated from leakage of cytokines and death inducing enzymes produced from the activated immune cells to normal cells. Also see FIG. 21C and FIG. 21D, which show that conventional antibody therapy can eliminate cancer cells by activating immune effector cells upon binding to FcγRs leading to non-tumor toxicity due to leakage of cytokines, performs, and/or granzymes to neighboring normal cells (FIG. 21C); but activation of TRAIL-R2 mediated apoptotic signaling pathway reduces the need to activate immune effector cells, thereby eliminating immune cell-related toxicity leakage to normal cells (FIG. 21D).


In some embodiments, a multi-specific binding polypeptide (e.g., a multi-specific antibody) described herein comprises a first binding moiety that binds to a receptor on a cancer cell and a second binding moiety that binds to TRAIL-R2 expressed on the same cancer cell.

In other instances, the first binding moiety binds to a protein expressed on the surface of the cancer cell. In additional instances, the first binding moiety comprises a ganglioside.

In some cases, the first binding moiety has a higher binding affinity toward the receptor (e.g., by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 20, 50, or more fold) than the second binding moiety toward TRAIL-R2. In some cases, the first binding moiety facilitates oligomerization (e.g., dimerization) of the TRAIL-R2. In some cases, the first binding moiety facilitates oligomerization (e.g., dimerization) of the TRAIL-R2 in the lipid raft of the cancer cell. In some cases, oligomerization (e.g., dimerization) of the TRAIL-R2 by the multi-specific binding polypeptide (e.g., the multi-specific antibody) modulates activation of the apoptotic signaling pathway of the cancer cell. In some cases, the multi-specific binding polypeptide (e.g., the multi-specific antibody) is used for the treatment of a cancer by activation of the TRAIL-R2 mediated apoptosis.

Therapeutic Regimens

In some embodiments, one or more pharmaceutical compositions described herein comprising the provided multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) are administered for therapeutic applications. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is administered once per day, twice per day, three times per day or more. The pharmaceutical composition is administered daily, every day, every alternate day, five days a week, once a week, every other week, two weeks per month, three weeks per month, once a month, twice a month, three times per month, or more. The pharmaceutical composition is administered for at least 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, 5 months, 6 months, 7 months, 8 months, 9 months, 10 months, 11 months, 12 months, 18 months, 2 years, 3 years, or more.


In the case wherein the patient's status does improve, upon the doctor's discretion the administration of the composition is given continuously, alternatively, the dose of the composition being administered is temporarily reduced or temporarily suspended for a certain length of time (i.e., a “drug holiday”). In some embodiments, the length of the drug holiday varies between 2 days and 1 year, including by way of example only, 2 days, 3 days, 4 days, 5 days, 6 days, 7 days, 10 days, 12 days, 15 days, 20 days, 28 days, 35 days, 50 days, 70 days, 100 days, 120 days, 150 days, 180 days, 200 days, 250 days, 280 days, 300 days, 320 days, 350 days, or 365 days. The dose reduction during a drug holiday is from 10%-100%, including, by way of example only, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 100%.


Once improvement of the patient's conditions has occurred, a maintenance dose is administered if necessary. Subsequently, the dosage or the frequency of administration, or both, can be reduced, as a function of the symptoms, to a level at which the improved disease, disorder or condition is retained.


In some embodiments, the amount of a given agent that correspond to such an amount varies depending upon factors such as the particular compound, the severity of the disease, the identity (e.g., weight) of the subject or host in need of treatment, but nevertheless is routinely determined in a manner known in the art according to the particular circumstances surrounding the case, including, e.g., the specific agent being administered, the route of administration, and the subject or host being treated. In some embodiments, the desired dose is conveniently presented in a single dose or as divided doses administered simultaneously (or over a short period of time) or at appropriate intervals, for example as two, three, four or more sub-doses per day.


The foregoing ranges are merely suggestive, as the number of variables in regard to an individual treatment regime is large, and considerable excursions from these recommended values are not uncommon. Such dosages is altered depending on a number of variables, not limited to the activity of the compound used, the disease or condition to be treated, the mode of administration, the requirements of the individual subject, the severity of the disease or condition being treated, and the judgment of the practitioner.


In some embodiments, toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of such therapeutic regimens are determined by standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell cultures or experimental animals, including, but not limited to, the determination of the LD50 (the dose lethal to 50% of the population) and the ED50 (the dose therapeutically effective in 50% of the population). The dose ratio between the toxic and therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index and it is expressed as the ratio between LD50 and ED50. Compounds exhibiting high therapeutic indices are preferred. The data obtained from cell culture assays and animal studies are used in formulating a range of dosage for use in human. The dosage of such compounds lies preferably within a range of circulating concentrations that include the ED50 with minimal toxicity. The dosage varies within this range depending upon the dosage form employed and the route of administration utilized.

Definitions

In the following description, certain specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of various embodiments. However, one skilled in the art will understand that the embodiments provided may be practiced without these details. Unless the context requires otherwise, throughout the specification and claims which follow, the word “comprise” and variations thereof, such as, “comprises” and “comprising” are to be construed in an open, inclusive sense, that is, as “including, but not limited to.” As used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” include plural referents unless the content clearly dictates otherwise. It should also be noted that the term “or” is generally employed in its sense including “and/or” unless the content clearly dictates otherwise. Further, headings provided herein are for convenience only and do not interpret the scope or meaning of the claimed embodiments.


As used herein the term “about” refers to an amount that is near the stated amount by 10% or less.


As used herein, the terms “individual(s),” “subject(s),” and “patient(s)” are interchangeable and refer to any mammal diagnosed with, suspected of being afflicted with, or at risk of being afflicted with a disease or condition, e.g., a cancer, tumor, or neoplasm marked by uncontrolled cell-growth. In certain embodiments, the mammal is a human person. In some embodiments, the mammal is a non-human such as a cat, dog, mouse, rat, non-human primate, cow, pig, sheep, goat, llama, alpaca, or horse.


As used herein “binding” or “specific binding” refers to the binding of an affinity molecule like a receptor or an antibody to a distinct portion of a molecule, or epitopes and variants thereof. Specific binding is generally mediated by the CDR residues of an antibody, but framework residues can sometimes also be involved in conjunction with a CDR residue. In certain embodiments, specific binding does not encompass interactions of the Fc region of an antibody with another molecule such as protein A, G, or A/G.


The terms “polypeptide” and “protein” are used interchangeably to refer to a polymer of amino acid residues and are not limited to a minimum length. Polypeptides, including the provided antibodies and antibody chains and other peptides, e.g., linkers and binding peptides, may include amino acid residues including natural and/or non-natural amino acid residues. The terms also include post-expression modifications of the polypeptide, for example, glycosylation, sialylation, acetylation, phosphorylation, and the like. In some aspects, the polypeptides may contain modifications with respect to a native or natural sequence, as long as the protein maintains the desired activity. These modifications may be deliberate, as through site-directed mutagenesis, or may be accidental, such as through mutations of hosts which produce the proteins or errors due to PCR amplification.


The term “antibody” herein is used in the broadest sense and includes monoclonal antibodies, including intact antibodies and functional (antigen-binding) antibody fragments thereof, including fragment antigen binding (Fab) fragments, F(ab′)2 fragments, Fab′ fragments, Fv fragments, recombinant IgG (rIgG) fragments, single chain antibody fragments, including single chain variable fragments (sFv or scFv), and single domain antibodies (e.g., sdAb, sdFv, nanobody) fragments. The term encompasses genetically engineered and/or otherwise modified forms of immunoglobulins, such as intrabodies, peptibodies, chimeric antibodies, fully human antibodies, humanized antibodies, and heteroconjugate antibodies, multi-specific, e.g., bispecific, antibodies, diabodies, triabodies, and tetrabodies, tandem di-scFv, tandem tri-scFv. Unless otherwise stated, the term “antibody” should be understood to encompass functional antibody fragments thereof. The term also encompasses intact or full-length antibodies, including antibodies of any class or sub-class, including IgG and sub-classes thereof, IgM, IgE, IgA, and IgD. The antibody can comprise a human IgG1 constant region. The antibody can comprise a human IgG4 constant region.


Antibodies bind to target antigens or epitopes based on their complementarity determining regions. The terms “complementarity determining region,” and “CDR,” which are synonymous with “hypervariable region” or “HVR,” are known in the art to refer to non-contiguous sequences of amino acids within antibody variable regions, which confer antigen specificity and/or binding affinity. In general, there are three CDRs in each heavy chain variable region (CDR-H1, CDR-H2, and CDR-H3 or HCDR1, HCDR2, and HCDR3) and three CDRs in each light chain variable region (CDR-L1, CDR-L2, and CDR-L3 or LCDR1, LCDR2, and LCDR3). “Framework regions” and “FR” are known in the art to refer to the non-CDR portions of the variable regions of the heavy and light chains. In general, there are four FRs in each full-length heavy chain variable region (FR-H1, FR-H2, FR-H3, and FR-H4), and four FRs in each full-length light chain variable region (FR-L1, FR-L2, FR-L3, and FR-L4). The precise amino acid sequence boundaries of a given CDR or FR can be readily determined using any of a number of well-known schemes, including those described by Kabat et al. (1991), “Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,” 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md. (“Kabat” numbering scheme), Al-Lazikani et al., (1997) JMB 273,927-948 (“Chothia” numbering scheme); MacCallum et al., J. Mol. Biol. 262:732-745 (1996), “Antibody-antigen interactions: Contact analysis and binding site topography,” J. Mol. Biol. 262, 732-745.” (“Contact” numbering scheme); Lefranc MP et al.,“IMGT unique numbering for immunoglobulin and T cell receptor variable domains and Ig superfamily V-like domains,” Dev Comp Immunol, 2003 January;27(1):55-77 (“IMGT” numbering scheme); Honegger A and Plückthun A, “Yet another numbering scheme for immunoglobulin variable domains: an automatic modeling and analysis tool,” J Mol Biol, 2001 Jun 8;309(3):657-70, (“Aho” numbering scheme); and Whitelegg NR and Rees AR, “WAM: an improved algorithm for modelling antibodies on the WEB,” Protein Eng.2000 December;13(12):819-24 (“AbM” numbering scheme.


The boundaries of a given CDR or FR may vary depending on the scheme used for identification. For example, the Kabat scheme is based on structural alignments, while the Chothia scheme is based on structural information. Numbering for both the Kabat and Chothia schemes is based upon the most common antibody region sequence lengths, with insertions accommodated by insertion letters, for example, “30a,” and deletions appearing in some antibodies. The two schemes place certain insertions and deletions (“indels”) at different positions, resulting in differential numbering. The Contact scheme is based on analysis of complex crystal structures and is similar in many respects to the Chothia numbering scheme. In certain embodiments, the CDRs of the provided antibodies and antigen binding fragments are defined by the Kabat, IMGT, Chothia, Contact, Aho, AbM scheme or any combination thereof. In certain embodiments, the CDRs of the provided antibodies and antigen binding fragments are defined by the Kabat, IMGT, Chothia scheme, or any combination thereof. In certain embodiments, the CDR boundaries are defined by the longest contiguous overlapping subset of the Kabat, IMGT, and Chothia scheme, or any combination thereof.


CDRs are endogenously associated with a variable region of an antibody. The term “variable region” or “variable domain” refers to the domain of an antibody heavy or light chain that is involved in binding the antibody to antigen. The variable domains of the heavy chain and light chain (VH and VL, respectively) of a native antibody generally have similar structures, with each domain comprising four conserved framework regions (FRs) and three CDRs (See e.g., Kindt et al. Kuby Immunology, 6th ed., W.H. Freeman and Co., page 91(2007)). A single VH or VL domain may be sufficient to confer antigen-binding specificity. Furthermore, antibodies that bind a particular antigen may be isolated using a VH or VL domain from an antibody that binds the antigen to screen a library of complementary VL or VH domains, respectively (See e.g., Portolano et al., J. Immunol. 150:880-887 (1993); Clarkson et al., Nature 352:624-628 (1991)).


Among the provided antibodies are antibody fragments. An “antibody fragment” refers to a molecule other than an intact antibody that comprises a portion of an intact antibody that binds the antigen to which the intact antibody binds. Examples of antibody fragments include, but are not limited to, Fv, Fab, Fab′, Fab′-SH, F(ab′)2; diabodies; linear antibodies; single-chain antibody molecules (e.g. scFv or sFv); and multi-specific antibodies formed from antibody fragments. In particular embodiments, the antibodies are single-chain antibody fragments comprising a variable heavy chain region and/or a variable light chain region, such as scFvs.


Antibody fragments can be made by various techniques, including but not limited to proteolytic digestion of an intact antibody as well as production by recombinant host cells. In some embodiments, the antibodies are recombinantly-produced fragments, such as fragments comprising arrangements that do not occur naturally, such as those with two or more antibody regions or chains joined by synthetic linkers, e.g., polypeptide linkers, and/or those that are not produced by enzyme digestion of a naturally-occurring intact antibody. In some aspects, the antibody fragments are scFvs.


A “humanized” antibody or multi-specific binding polypeptide is an antibody in which all or substantially all CDR amino acid residues are derived from non-human CDRs and all or substantially all FR amino acid residues are derived from human FRs. A humanized antibody optionally may include at least a portion of an antibody constant region derived from a human antibody. A “humanized form” of a non-human antibody refers to a variant of the non-human antibody that has undergone humanization, typically to reduce immunogenicity to humans, while retaining the specificity and affinity of the parental non-human antibody. In some embodiments, some FR residues in a humanized antibody are substituted with corresponding residues from a non-human antibody (e.g., the antibody from which the CDR residues are derived), e.g., to restore or improve antibody specificity or affinity.


Among the provided antibodies are human antibodies. A “human antibody” is an antibody with an amino acid sequence corresponding to that of an antibody produced by a human or a human cell, or non-human source that utilizes human antibody repertoires or other human antibody-encoding sequences, including human antibody libraries. The term excludes humanized forms of non-human antibodies comprising non-human antigen-binding regions, such as those in which all or substantially all CDRs are non-human.


As used herein, a “multi-specific” antibody refers to an antibody that binds to more than one antigen. For instances, a “multi-specific” antibody can bind to two, three, four, or more antigens. In some cases, a “multi-specific” antibody binds to at least one tumor-associated antigen, at least one antigen expressed on an immunosuppressive cell, or a combination thereof. In some cases, the “multi-specific” antibody further comprises a modification in the Fc region. In some cases, the “multi-specific” antibody binds to at least one tumor-associated antigen and/or at least one antigen expressed on an immunosuppressive cell and further binds to a receptor that interacts with the antibody's Fc region.


In some embodiments, a multi-specific antibody is a bispecific antibody. As used in such instances, bispecific antibody refers to an antibody that can bind to at least one tumor-associated antigen, at least one antigen expressed on an immunosuppressive cell, or a combination thereof. In some cases, the bispecific antibody further comprises a modification in the Fc region. In some cases, the bispecific antibody binds to at least one tumor-associated antigen and/or at least one antigen expressed on an immunosuppressive cell and further binds to a receptor that interacts with the antibody's Fc region.


Human antibodies may be prepared by administering an immunogen to a transgenic animal that has been modified to produce intact human antibodies or intact antibodies with human variable regions in response to antigenic challenge. Such animals typically contain all or a portion of the human immunoglobulin loci, which replace the endogenous immunoglobulin loci, or which are present extrachromosomally or integrated randomly into the animal's chromosomes. In such transgenic animals, the endogenous immunoglobulin loci have generally been inactivated. Human antibodies also may be derived from human antibody libraries, including phage display and cell-free libraries, containing antibody-encoding sequences derived from a human repertoire


Percent (%) sequence identity with respect to a reference polypeptide sequence is the percentage of amino acid residues in a candidate sequence that are identical with the amino acid residues in the reference polypeptide sequence, after aligning the sequences and introducing gaps, if necessary, to achieve the maximum percent sequence identity, and not considering any conservative substitutions as part of the sequence identity. Alignment for purposes of determining percent amino acid sequence identity can be achieved in various ways that are known for instance, using publicly available computer software such as BLAST, BLAST-2, ALIGN or Megalign (DNASTAR) software. Appropriate parameters for aligning sequences are able to be determined, including algorithms needed to achieve maximal alignment over the full length of the sequences being compared. For purposes herein, however, % amino acid sequence identity values are generated using the sequence comparison computer program ALIGN-2. The ALIGN-2 sequence comparison computer program was authored by Genentech, Inc., and the source code has been filed with user documentation in the U.S. Copyright Office, Washington D.C., 20559, where it is registered under U.S. Copyright Registration No. TXU510087. The ALIGN-2 program is publicly available from Genentech, Inc., South San Francisco, Calif., or may be compiled from the source code. The ALIGN-2 program should be compiled for use on a UNIX operating system, including digital UNIX V4.0D. All sequence comparison parameters are set by the ALIGN-2 program and do not vary.


In situations where ALIGN-2 is employed for amino acid sequence comparisons, the % amino acid sequence identity of a given amino acid sequence A to, with, or against a given amino acid sequence B (which can alternatively be phrased as a given amino acid sequence A that has or comprises a certain % amino acid sequence identity to, with, or against a given amino acid sequence B) is calculated as follows: 100 times the fraction X/Y, where X is the number of amino acid residues scored as identical matches by the sequence alignment program ALIGN-2 in that program's alignment of A and B, and where Y is the total number of amino acid residues in B. It will be appreciated that where the length of amino acid sequence A is not equal to the length of amino acid sequence B, the % amino acid sequence identity of A to B will not equal the % amino acid sequence identity of B to A. Unless specifically stated otherwise, all % amino acid sequence identity values used herein are obtained as described in the immediately preceding paragraph using the ALIGN-2 computer program.


In some embodiments, amino acid sequence variants of the antibodies provided herein are contemplated. A variant typically differs from a polypeptide specifically disclosed herein in one or more substitutions, deletions, additions and/or insertions. Such variants can be naturally occurring or can be synthetically generated, for example, by modifying one or more of the above polypeptide sequences of the invention and evaluating one or more biological activities of the polypeptide as described herein and/or using any of a number of known techniques. For example, it may be desirable to improve the binding affinity and/or other biological properties of the antibody. Amino acid sequence variants of an antibody may be prepared by introducing appropriate modifications into the nucleotide sequence encoding the antibody, or by peptide synthesis. Such modifications include, for example, deletions from, and/or insertions into and/or substitutions of residues within the amino acid sequences of the antibody. Any combination of deletion, insertion, and substitution can be made to arrive at the final construct, provided that the final construct possesses the desired characteristics, e.g., antigen-binding.


In some embodiments, antibody variants having one or more amino acid substitutions are provided. Sites of interest for mutagenesis by substitution include the CDRs and FRs. Amino acid substitutions may be introduced into an antibody of interest and the products screened for a desired activity, e.g., retained/improved antigen binding, decreased immunogenicity, or improved ADCC (antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity), ADCP (antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis), or CDC (complement-dependent cytotoxicity). In some embodiments, the multispecific binding polypeptides, provided herein, can induce direct cell death of both cancer cells and immunosuppressive cells by Fc-based effector function, such as ADCC, ADCP, and CDC. In some embodiments, the multispecific binding polypeptides comprise mutations in the Fc-region to enhance Fc-based effector functions, such as ADCC, ADCP and CDC.


In some embodiments, substitutions, insertions, or deletions may occur within one or more CDRs, wherein the substitutions, insertions, or deletions do not substantially reduce antibody binding to antigen. For example, conservative substitutions that do not substantially reduce binding affinity may be made in CDRs. Such alterations may be outside of CDR “hotspots”. In some embodiments of the variant VH and VL sequences, each CDR is unaltered.


Alterations (e.g., substitutions) may be made in CDRs, e.g., to improve antibody affinity. Such alterations may be made in CDR encoding codons with a high mutation rate during somatic maturation (See e.g., Chowdhury, Methods Mol. Biol. 207:179-196 (2008)), and the resulting variant can be tested for binding affinity. Affinity maturation (e.g., using error-prone PCR, chain shuffling, randomization of CDRs, or oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis) can be used to improve antibody affinity (See e.g., Hoogenboom et al. in Methods in Molecular Biology 178:1-37 (2001)). CDR residues involved in antigen binding may be specifically identified, e.g., using alanine scanning mutagenesis or modeling (See e.g., Cunningham and Wells Science, 244:1081-1085 (1989)). CDR-H3 and CDR-L3 in particular are often targeted. Alternatively, or additionally, a crystal structure of an antigen-antibody complex to identify contact points between the antibody and antigen. Such contact residues and neighboring residues may be targeted or eliminated as candidates for substitution. Variants may be screened to determine whether they contain the desired properties.


Amino acid sequence insertions and deletions include amino- and/or carboxyl-terminal fusions ranging in length from one residue to polypeptides containing a hundred or more residues, as well as intrasequence insertions and deletions of single or multiple amino acid residues. Examples of terminal insertions include an antibody with an N-terminal methionyl residue. Other insertional variants of the antibody molecule include the fusion to the N- or C-terminus of the antibody to an enzyme (e.g., for ADEPT) or a polypeptide which increases the serum half-life of the antibody. Examples of intrasequence insertion variants of the antibody molecules include an insertion of 3 amino acids in the light chain. Examples of terminal deletions include an antibody with a deletion of 7 or less amino acids at an end of the light chain.


As used herein, the term “conservative substitution” denotes the replacement of an amino acid residue by another, chemically or biologically similar residue. Biologically similar means that the substitution does not destroy a biological activity or function.


Structurally similar means that the amino acids have side chains with similar length, such as alanine, glycine, and serine, or a similar size. Chemical similarity means that the residues have the same charge or are both hydrophilic or hydrophobic. Particular examples of conservative substitutions include the substitution of a hydrophobic residue such as isoleucine, valine, leucine or methionine for another, the substitution of a polar residue for another, such as the substitution of arginine for lysine, glutamic for aspartic acids, or glutamine for asparagine, and the like. The term “conservative substitution” also includes the use of a substituted amino acid in place of an unsubstituted parent amino acid. Such multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) can be encoded by a nucleic acid.


Modified multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) also include one or more D-amino acids substituted for L-amino acids (and mixtures thereof), structural and functional analogues, for example, peptidomimetics having synthetic or non-natural amino acids or amino acid analogues and derivatizes forms. Modifications include cyclic structures such as an end-to-end amide bond between the amino and carboxy-terminus of the multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies).


Modified multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) further include “chemical derivatives,” in which one or more amino acids has a side chain chemically altered or derivatived. Such derivatized multi-specific binding polypeptides (e.g., multi-specific antibodies) include, for example, amino acids in which free amino groups from amine hydrochlorides, p-toluene sulfonyl groups, carobenzoxy groups, the free carboxy groups that form salts, methyl and ethyl esters; free hydroxl groups that form O-acyl or O-alkyl derivatives as well as naturally occurring amino acid derivatives, for example, 4-hdroxyproline for proline, 5-hydroxylysine for lysine, homoserine for serine, ornithine for lysine. Also included are amino acid derivatives that can alter covalent bonding, for example, the disulfide linkage that forms between two cysteine residues.

EXAMPLES

These examples are provided for illustrative purposes only and not to limit the scope of the claims provided herein.


Example 1—Generation of Exemplary Multi-Specific Antibodies

The heavy chain of an exemplary bispecific antibody can comprise the following format: N—VH-CH1-CH2-CH3-peptide-scFv-C, where N and C denote the N-terminal and C-terminal ends of the construct. The heavy chain is an IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, or IgG4 isotype and can further be cloned into a mammalian expression vector. The 5′-end of the heavy chain is cloned into the 3′-end of the leader sequence of the vector to enable secretion from the mammalian expression cells. The light chain is constructed in a separate expression vector where VL is cloned either with Kappa or Lamda CL domain. Similarly, the 5′-end of the DNA sequence of the light chain is cloned into the 3′-end of the leader sequence of the vector.


The plasmids containing the heavy and light chains are transiently co-expressed in HEK293 or CHO cells.


The cells are grown in flasks on an orbital shaker platform rotating at 140 rpm at 37° C., 5% CO2 and sub-cultured following the manufacturer's protocol. Co-transfection is performed with polyethyleneimine (PEI) as the transfection reagent. Briefly, HEK293/CHO cells are sub-cultured to a cell density of 0.5-0.7×106 cells/ml for 24 hours before transfection. Immediately before transfection, cell density is adjusted to 1×106 cells/ml. Five hundred micrograms of each purified plasmid (1 mg/ml) is added to 19 ml Optipro (Invitrogen). Two milliliters of 1 mg/ml PEI, pH 7.0 (molecular weight (MW) of 25 000) dissolved in water is added to 18 ml Optipro. Both the solutions are incubated at room temperature for 5 min. The DNA/Optipro solution is added to the PEI/Optipro solution and incubated for 10 min at room temperature and added drop wise to 1 L HEK293/CHO culture. The supernatant is collected 6-8 days after transfection. Antibodies are purified and checked for expression, purity and quality, as described in the following examples.

Example 7—Characterization of αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 Multi-specific Antibody

αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 bispecific antibody was generated according to the scheme in FIG. 1A and comprises SEQ ID NO: 7 and SEQ ID NO: 8, in which the anti-TROP2 binding domain was expressed in the first binding moiety, Fab region, and anti-TRAIL-R2 binding domain was expressed within the second binding moiety, scFv. The construct was transiently expressed in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) mammalian expression system using serum-free chemically defined medium in compliance with current manufacturing practice. A 100 mL transient expression culture yielded a total of ˜23 mg of the multi-specific antibody after Protein A purification with titer as high as 0.24 g/L, FIG. 12A. Analysis of solution profile by Size Exclusion Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography (SE-UPLC) revealed presence of ˜86% monomer of the intact bispecific antibody with no detection of low molecular weight species, suggesting stability of the construct, as shown in FIG. 12B. Stability and purity of the construct was further confirmed by SDS-PAGE and intact mass analysis under reduced and de-glycosylated conditions where no low molecular weight species was noted, FIG. 12C and FIG. 12D, respectively. Binding affinity to TROP2 and TRAIL-R2 antigens was measured by ELISA in comparison to non-binding human IgG1 isotype (negative control) and binding rabbit anti-TROP2 and anti-TRAIL-R2 antibodies (positive control). The αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 multi-specific antibody exhibited higher binding affinity towards the tumor associated antigen, TROP2, KD=0.0024 nM, than toward the antigen expressed on immunosuppressive cells, TRAIL-R2, KD=0.22 nM FIG. 12E. The αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 multi-specific antibody also exhibited target selective binding in cancer cells. In SKBR3, a breast cancer cell line expressing high levels of TROP2 (FIG. 13B) and low but detectable levels of TRAIL-R2 (FIG. 13C) the binding affinity was KD=2.4 nM (0.46 μg/ml), FIG. 13A. In U937 that expresses very low levels of TRAIL-R2 but no TROP2 (FIG. 13F) the αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 multi-specific antibody exhibited selective binding, FIG. 13D. In THP1 that neither expresses TROP2 nor TRAIL-R2 (FIG. 13G) the αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 multi-specific antibody exhibited no binding, FIG. 13E. TRAIL-R2 mediated binding of the αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 multi-specific antibody in U937 and THP1 was detected in the presence of Fc Block reagent that blocked non-specific binding of Fc region of IgG antibodies to Fcγ receptors. High expression of FcγRIA (CD64A) in both U937 and THP1 contributed to binding without the Fc Block reagent in those cell lines. The αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 multi-specific antibody exhibited dose dependent TRAIL-R2 mediated apoptosis and cell death in U937 in the presence of Fc Block, FIG. 14. A cell killing of 11% and 15% was achieved at IC50=0.65 nM (0.13 μg/ml) in U937. The TRAIL-R2 mediated apoptosis of the αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 multi-specific antibody was carried out without cross-linking, while studies by several groups had shown that anti-TRAIL-R2 agonist monospecific antibodies were able to induce apoptosis in TRAIL sensitive cancer cell lines only upon cross-linking. The activity of the αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 multi-specific antibody was higher in cancer cell lines that expressed high levels of TRAIL-R2 with no expression of FcγRIA (CD64A). High expression levels of FcγRIA (CD64A) in U937 binding via Fc region of the antibody contributed to and reduced binding to TRAIL-R2 and subsequently reducing TRAIL-R2 mediated apoptosis.

αTROP2×αCD33, αTROP2×αCSF1R and αTROP2×αCD163 bispecific antibodies were generated according to the scheme in FIG. 1A, in which the anti-TROP2 binding domain was expressed in the Fab portion and anti-CD33, anti-CSF1R and anti-CD163 binding domains were expressed in the scFv portion. For αTROP2×αCD33 SEQ ID NOs: 75 and 8 was used; for αTROP2×αCSF1R SEQ ID NOs: 76 and 8 was used; for αTROP2×αCD163 SEQ ID NOs: 77 and 8 was used. The respective construct was transiently expressed in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) mammalian expression system using serum-free chemically defined medium in compliance with current manufacturing practice. A 150 mL transient expression culture yielded a total amount ranging between 4 mg and 10 mg with titers in Day 8 post-transfection as noted: αTROP2×αCD33-0.035 g/L; αTROP2×αCSF1R-0.017 g/L; and αTROP2×αCD163-0.025 g/L. Analysis of solution profile by Size Exclusion High Performance Liquid Chromatography (SE-HPLC) revealed presence of ˜100% monomer of the intact bispecific antibody with no detection of low molecular weight species, suggesting stability of the construct, as shown in FIG. 15. Stability and purity of the construct were further confirmed by SDS-PAGE under reduced and non-reduced conditions where no low molecular weight species were noted, FIG. 16. To assess the binding of the multi-specific antibodies to their respective antigens, multi-cycle kinetics analysis was performed after SEC purification using a Biacore T200 (serial no. 1909913) running Biacore T200 Control Software V2.0.1 and Biacore T200 Evaluation Software V3.0 (Uppsala, Sweden). αTROP2×αCD33 and αTROP2×αCD163 multi-specific antibodies exhibited higher binding affinity towards the tumor associated antigen, TROP2, (KD=0.9 nM), than toward the antigen expressed on immunosuppressive cells, CD33 and CD163, KD=8.4 nM and 493 nM, respectively, FIG. 17, and FIG. 18. The αTROP2×αCSF1R multi-specific antibody exhibited similar binding affinity towards the tumor associated antigen, TROP2, and the antigen expressed on immunosuppressive cells, CSF1R; KD=0.8 nM for TROP2 and KD=0.5 nM for CSF1R, FIG. 19.


The αTROP2×αCD33 multi-specific antibody also exhibited target selective binding in cancer cells. In SKBR3, a breast cancer cell line expressing high levels of TROP2 (FIGS. 20C and 13B) the binding affinity was KD=2.7 nM (0.55 μg/ml), FIG. 20A. In THP1 that expresses high levels of CD33 but no TROP2 (FIGS. 20D and 13F) the αTROP2×αCD33 multi-specific antibody exhibited selective binding, FIG. 20B. In some instances, CD33 mediated binding of the αTROP2×αCD33 multi-specific antibody in THP1 was detected in the presence of Fc Block reagent that blocked non-specific binding of Fc region of IgG antibodies to Fcγ receptors.


Example 9—Antibody Humanization

Parental mouse and rabbit antibodies are humanized by grafting CDR or antigen binding sequences from heavy and light chains respectively, onto heavy and light chains of human framework that have high sequence identity with the mouse or rabbit framework sequence. Series of humanized variants are generated by pairing human heavy chain frameworks with human light chain frameworks. The number of humanized variants generated will depend on the number of pairing combinations of human heavy and light chain frameworks. The variants are expressed transiently in HEK293 or CHO or other mammalian expression systems. The supernatant from the expression culture is analyzed for binding to specific human antigen by FACS. The human antigen can be recombinantly expressed on the cell surface of stable mammalian expression cell line.


The binding affinity of the humanized variants is measured in terms of concentration, where lower is the concentration higher is the binding affinity. Usually, humanized antibody variants exhibiting binding affinity in nanomolar range are selected. Furthermore, the selected humanized antibody variants further retain comparable binding affinity profile as the chimera. The selected humanized antibody variants are screened against binding to varied receptor copy numbers from low, medium and high; ideally the selected variants should retain similar binding affinity.


Example 10—Production of Multi-specific Antibodies

Multi-specific antibodies can be purified using chromatography-based separation methods. The secreted antibodies expressed in mammalian expression system are harvested by separating the cell mass and debris by filtering through a membrane of appropriate size to block cell mass and debris from collecting in the filtrate. The secreted antibody in the filtrate is captured either by batch binding or column binding on a Protein A affinity chromatography resin. The bound antibody is eluted from the resin under acidic conditions pH 2-3 using buffers containing glycine or citrate. The eluted antibody preparation is titrated to pH 5 and diluted 50% by water to reduce conductance. Aggregation and/or impurities are removed from the preparation by cation exchange or HIC chromatography. The antibody is eluted from the resin by gradient of appropriate elution buffer. The eluted fractions are analyzed for monomeric profile by analytic size exclusion chromatography. In addition, the eluted fractions are analyzed for mass analysis by mass-spectrometry. Fractions that matched with the expected molecular weight of the sequence and/or relevant standards and also, revealed a monomeric solution profile by size-exclusion chromatography are pooled together. The pooled multi-specific antibody preparation is formulated onto buffer solutions that are isotonic with human body. For example, the composition can be formulated in a phosphate buffer saline, HEPES buffer saline, Histidine based buffer formulations, Tris-based buffer formulations, citrate-based buffer formulations. Quality control assessments is performed on the final preparation and preparations generated by this strategy resulted in superior quality materials containing <5% aggregate and <5 EU/mg endotoxin level.


Example 11—Production of Multi-specific Antibodies Conjugated with Toxins

Multi-specific antibodies can be purified using a chromatography-based separation method as described in Example 10. The multi-specific antibody pooled from the chromatography-based separation method can be further conjugated with toxin payload based on conjugation chemistry. The conjugation can be performed by Cys-maleimide conjugation, where the antibody is reduced by reducing agent such as TCEP (Tricarboxyethyl phosphine) or DTT (1,4 Dithiothreitol). The conjugation can be performed in buffer solutions containing 4-6 mM EDTA with buffering capacity spanning between pH 6 and 9. Reducing agent is added to the multi-specific antibody solution reaching a TCEP: antibody ratio of 2-4. Following addition of reducing agent the solution is incubated at 37° C. for 1 hour. The reduced antibody is conjugated to toxin-payloads with maleimide reactive group by adding toxin-payload at a final toxin: reduced Cysteine molar ratio of 1.15. The conjugation reaction can be carried in presence of excipients such as DMSO, trehalose, glycerol, sucrose, etc. with concentrations ranging from 1-20% v/v. The conjugation reaction is performed at 20° C. for 45 minutes-1 hour. The reaction is quenched by adding excess free N(acetyl)-Cysteine 2.3 molar excess than toxin-payload to block the unreacted maleimide group. The quenching reaction can be performed for 20-30 mins at 20° C. A drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR) of 1, 2, 6, and 8 can be accomplished under appropriate conditions. Unconjugated antibodies, unconjugated drug payload-linker, aggregates and impurities can be removed by running the reaction mixture through cation exchange chromatography or hydrophobic interaction chromatography. The antibody drug conjugate can be eluted from the column under a 0-100% gradient of 0.5 M sodium chloride if the method used is cation exchange chromatography. Eluted fractions were analyzed for drug loading and impurity assessments by reverse-phase HPLC, HIC-HPLC, size-exclusion HPLC and mass-spectrometry. Fractions that matched with the expected molecular weight of the sequence and requisite drug-to-antibody ratio and also, revealed a monomeric solution profile by size-exclusion chromatography are pooled together. The pooled multi-specific antibody drug conjugate preparation is formulated onto buffer solutions that are isotonic with human body. For example, the composition of multispecific binding polypeptides described herein can be formulated in a phosphate buffer saline, HEPES buffer saline, Histidine based buffer formulations, Tris-based buffer formulations, citrate-based buffer formulations. Quality control assessments is performed on the final preparation and preparations generated by this strategy resulted in superior quality materials containing <5% aggregate and <5 EU/mg endotoxin level.


Example 12—Determination of Receptor Expression on Cancer Cell Lines

Expression level of the relevant receptor in cancer cell lines can be estimated by a flow cytometry method. Relevant cell lines expressing the receptor are harvested with Accutase Cell Detachment Solution (BD Bioscience) and assayed for receptor expression using QuantiBRITE PE beads (BD Bioscience) and a PE-conjugated antibody that binds the primary antibody binding the specific receptor. The secondary antibody is conjugated to PE following manufacturer's instructions. Data can be acquired on a FACSCalibur Flow Cytometer (BD) with CellQuest Pro software, with analysis using Flowjo software (Tree Star; Ashland Oreg.).


Example 13—Cell Killing Potency

Potency of the multi-specific antibodies can be assessed by cell viability in an in vitro cell culture. Specifically the assay determines the number of viable cells present after treatment based on the quantitation of ATP present, which indicates the presence of metabolically active cells. Cell viability can be quantified by using the Cell Titer-Glo assay (Promega) and can be performed according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, cells are first detached from the master culture and seeded in the bottom of each well of 96 well plates (Perkin & Elmer). The number of cells used in seeding can range between 8,000 and 15,000 viable cells per well depending on the cell line. The volume of cell line specific culture medium in each well can vary between 80 and 100 microliters. Cells can be allowed to adhere in a humidified chamber for 3-4 hours at 37° C., 5% CO2. The cells are then treated with the multi-specific antibodies in the proposed invention with concentration varying 0.004 nM to 250 nM. After 72-96 hours viability of the cell is determined by adding 100 microliters per well of Cell Titer-Glo reagent with subsequent mixing on a plate shaker for two minutes at 350 rpm and 10 min incubation in the dark at room temperature. Luminescence can be measured by Synergy 5 reader (Biotek) with a read time of 0.5 seconds per well (sensitivity: 170). Background luminescence in wells with only medium plus the Cell Titer-Glo reagent is subtracted. Data is plotted as percentage of untreated cell viability versus the logarithm of antibody concentration and fitted with 3PL model using Graphpad Prism 5 (GraphPad Software, Inc.). Data from at least three independent experiments are used to calculate the mean IC50±standard deviation (s.d.).


Example 14—In Vivo Efficacy by Mice Xenograft Studies

A series of murine xenograft studies can be carried out to demonstrate anti-tumor efficacy of multi-specific antibodies in the proposed inventions. Both single dose and repeat dose efficacy studies can be performed on tumor xenograft studies with relevant cell lines. For example, a study can be performed to determine efficacy in xenograft models for triple negative breast cancer utilizing cell lines such as MDA-MB-468, MDA-MB-231, COLO205, SKBR3, U937, THP1, HL-60, KG-1, Shi-1, HNT-34, EOL1, CALU-3, CAPAN-1, PC-3, MCF-7, HCC38, HCC1806, DEL, SUDHL1, GDM1, P31FUJ, or KASUMI6. Immuno-compromised nude (nu/nu) mice, 4-8 weeks old (Taconic Farms) can be engrafted with cancer specific relevant cell lines. A xenograft can be established by making a tumor suspension from stock tumors and mixing with cells harvested from tissue culture. A 0.3 mL injection, containing 20% w/v tumor suspension plus 1×107 cells, is injected subcutaneously into the flank or back of the mice. In some embodiments, a xenograft can be established by harvesting cells from tissue culture and making a final cell suspension by mixing 1:1 with matrigel (BD Bioscience) such that each mouse received a total of 1×107 cells subcutaneously in the flank or back. Tumor volume (TV) is determined by measurements in two dimensions using calipers, with volumes defined as: (L×W×W)/2, where L is the longest dimension of the tumor and W the shortest. Mice is randomized into treatment groups and therapy can be started when tumor volumes are approximately >0.25 cm3. Mice are also weighed periodically by placing on a weighing machine. The dosing strength can be varied from 0.1 mg/kg to a high dose till no toxicity is observed. The dosing frequency is varied based on half-life of the drug and ability to reduce tumor volume. The study protocol and animal handling are performed according to IACUC regulations. Mice are euthanized and deemed to have succumbed to disease once tumors grows >1.0 cm3 in volume. Statistical analysis of tumor growth is based on area under the curve (AUC). Profiles of individual tumor growth can be obtained through linear curve modeling. An f-test is employed to determine equality of variance between groups prior to statistical analysis of growth curves. A two-tailed t-test is applied to assess statistical significance between the various treatment groups and controls, except for the saline control, where a one-tailed t-test is used (significance at P≤0.05). Statistical comparisons of AUC are performed only up to the time that the first animal within a group is euthanized due to disease progression. Survival is analyzed by log-rank test on survival curves generated for each treatment (significance at P≤0.05).


Example 15—IHC in Tumor Microarrays

Tumor specific microarrays are purchased from vendors specializing in generating microarrays. Antigen retrieval is done by incubating the slides in a Tris/EDTA buffer (DaKo Target Retrieval Solution, pH 9.0; Dako, Denmark), at 95° C. in a NxGen Decloaking Chamber (Biocare Medical; Concord, Calif.) for 30 minutes. The antigen is detected with a goat polyclonal anti-human antigen specific antibody at 10 μg/mL and stained with VECTASTAIN® ABC Kit (Vector Laboratories, Inc.; Burlingame, Calif.). Normal goat antibody is used as the negative control (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, Minn.). Tissues are counterstained with hematoxylin. A formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded section from a xenograft of human cancer cell line expressing the relevant antigen can serve as a positive control. Scoring is based on the intensity of the stain: >10% of the tumor cells within the specimen, including negative, 1+ (weak), 2+ (moderate), and 3+ (strong).


Example 16—Measurement of Binding Affinity

Binding kinetic parameters of the multi-specific antibodies are determined by the Octet Red96 system using Octet Data Acquisition software (Forté Bio, Pall). All data are collected at 30° C. in kinetics buffer (KB: PBS pH 7.4, 0.1% BSA, 0.02% Tween-20, Merck) with 1000 rpm orbital senor agitation in a volume of 200 microlitres using black 96-well microplates (Greiner Bio One). The relevant antigens and/or extra-cellular domain are used for the study. Anti-human IgG Fc capture biosensor tips (Forté Bio, Pall) are equilibrated 30 sec in DPBS (Life Technologies). Then, 5 μg/ml antibodies diluted in DPBS are immobilized on biosensor tips for 120 sec, a baseline is recorded for 60 sec in KB followed by stepwise association and dissociation of the analyte for 600 sec and 1200 sec, respectively. Buffer controls are subtracted as background and binding parameters are calculated assuming a 1:1 Langmuir binding model performing global fitting algorithm provided by the Octet data analysis software.


For evaluating simultaneous binding, 5 μg/ml biotinylated antigen A is captured on streptavidin biosensor tips (Forté Bio, Pall) for 40 sec. Biotinylation is performed with the EZ-Link™ Sulfo-NHS-Biotinylation Kit (Thermo Scientific). Biosensors with captured antigen are first blocked with 1% milk powder, 1% BSA, 0.1% Tween® 20 and 10 μg/ml biocytin for 60 sec and then stepwise subjected to 50 nM multi-specific antibody and 50 nM antigen B for 300 sec each. As controls, the non-related isotype control anti-hen egg lysozyme (anti-HEL) or buffer controls can be implemented to exclude unspecific binding.


Example 17—Pharmacokinetic Studies

The multi-specific antibodies are tested for pharmacokinetic properties. The antibodies are administered by IV bolus injection into the jugular vein via a catheter. The rats are dosed once at strengths ranging from 1 mg/kg to 5 mg/kg. Blood samples are collected from the jugular vein catheter pre-administration and post-administration of drug at designated time points: 0, 2, 24, 48, 96, 168, 240, 384, and 576 hours. Approximately 0.1 mL of whole blood is drawn from the catheter and is collected in a serum separator tube and allowed to clot for 30-60 minutes at room temperature. The serum is separated from the clotted blood by centrifuging at 8000 rpm for 5-10 minutes and is stored at −20° C. The serum is analyzed for the concentration of multi-specific antibodies by an ELISA type assay using an electro-chemi luminescent immunosorbent assay (ECLA). Multi-specific antibodies without drug payloads can be detected in the serum by capture with a specific antigen immobilized on the plate. The captured antibody is then detected by a labeled anti-human Fc or anti-kappa antibody. Multi-specific antibody conjugated with drug toxins are detected with the intact payload where the antibody is captured by an immobilized antigen on the plate. The conjugated drug payload can be detected by polyclonal antibody. Serum concentration versus time graphs is generated in Excel (Microsoft, Redmond, Wash.). The values are reported as mean±standard error of the mean (SEM). Pharmacokinetic analysis on blood clearance based on measured serum concentrations is performed in WinNonlin (Pharsight, St. Louis, Mo.) using non-compartmental analysis.


Example 18—Lack of Cell Killing in TRAIL-Sensitive MDAMB231 by an Exemplary Multi-Specific Antibody

MDAMB231 is a TRAIL-sensitive cell line expressing both TROP2 and TRAIL-R2 on the cell surface. The cell line is killed upon activation of TRAIL-R2 by binding of TRAIL, a ligand of TRAIL-R2. The ability of αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 in inducing cell death in MDAMB231 upon binding of TRAIL-R2 was determined by measuring the number of viable cells. The number of viable cells present after treatment was based on the quantitation of ATP present, which indicated the presence of metabolically active cells. Cell viability was quantified by using the Cell Titer-Glo assay (Promega) and was performed according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, pre-confluent MDAMB231 cells were seeded in a white opaque 96 well plate (Pierce) at a density of 1,000 cells per well in 100 μl. After ˜16 hours, serial 3-fold dilutions of αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 and controls (small molecule positive control—MMAE; PBS, media) were prepared so that final concentrations ranged between 100 nM and 0.00508 nM. Cell culture media were removed, and the serial dilutions of the test articles added. The plate was then incubated at 37° C. for three days. After three days, cell killing was assayed using Titer-Glo assay (Promega) according to manufacturer's protocol with a luminometer microplate reader. Analysis of the luminescence readout suggested that there was no concentration dependent change in luminescence for αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2, PBS and media treated cell cultures in comparison to the MMAE treated cell cultures, which exhibited cell killing, IC50=2 nM. This suggest that αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 did not exhibit any cell killing in MDAMB231 (FIG. 22). The lack of cell killing in MDAMB231 by αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 is due to preferential binding to TROP2; the binding affinity of αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 towards TROP2 antigen is 100+ higher than TRAIL-R2 (FIG. 12E). Furthermore, TROP2 is involved in β catenin signaling at cell-cell junction, which is a different subdomain in the plasma membrane. The preferential binding of αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 to TROP2 at cell-cell junction prevents αTROP2×αTRAIL-R2 from binding to TRAIL-R2 in the lipid raft, and as such, no activation of apoptosis was observed (FIG. 21B).


Example 19—Determination of Apoptosis and Cell Killing by Selective Activation of TRAIL-R2 in Target Cells by Targeting Tumor Specific Antigen in Lipid Raft

This study utilizes FACS methods to determine the TRAIL-R2 mediated cell killing of target cells with an exemplary multi-specific antibody described herein. The exemplary multi-specific antibody comprises a first binding moiety that binds to a tumor-associated antigen present in the lipid raft of a target cell to recruit and facilitate oligomerization (e.g., dimerization) of the TRAIL-R2 within the lipid raft. The target cells are stained with Annexin V and Propidium Iodide (PI) to detect apoptotic and non-viable cells. Briefly, target cells are first detached from the master culture and seeded in the bottom of each well of 96 well plates (Perkin & Elmer). The number of target cells used in seeding can range between 8,000 and 15,000 viable cells per well depending on the cell line. The volume of cell line specific culture medium in each well can vary between 80 and 100 microliters. Target cells can be allowed to adhere in a humidified chamber for 3-4 hours at 37° C., 5% CO2. The target cells are then treated with the multi-specific antibodies disclosed herein with concentration varying 0.004 nM to 250 nM. After 12-96 hours the target cells are washed and stained with Annexin V and PI to detect apoptotic and necrotic cells. The target cells are washed in PBS and then in binding buffer. The target cells are resuspended in 1× binding buffer at 1-5×106 cells/ml. To 100 μl of the cell suspension 5 μl of fluorochrome-conjugated Annexin V is added. The suspension is incubated at room temperature for 10-15 minutes protected from light. To the cell suspension 2 ml of 1× binding buffer is added and then centrifuged at 400-600 g for 5 minutes at room temperature. The supernatant is discarded. The target cells are then resuspended in 200 μL of 1× binding buffer and added 5 μL of Propidium Iodide Staining Solution and is incubated for 5-15 minutes on ice or at room temperature. The target cells are then analyzed by FACS using BD FACSVerse Instrument. The target cells are analyzed for healthy cells (Annexin V−/PI−), early apoptosis (Annexin V+/PI−) late apoptosis (Annexin V+/PI+), and necrosis (Annexin V−/PI+). The IC50 is calculated by plotting percentage of dead and apoptotic cells against the specific concentration of the test article.


Example 20—Human Clinical Trial of the Safety and/or Efficacy of αTROP2×αCD33-Val-Cit-MMAE or αTROP2×αCD33-PEG4-MMAF for TROP2+ Cancers

Objective: To compare the safety and pharmacokinetics of administered dual action bispecific ADC αTROP2×αCD33-Val-Cit-MMAE or αTROP2×αCD33-PEG4-MMAF.


Study Design: This study is a Phase I, single-center, open-label, randomized dose escalation study followed by a Phase II study in TROP2+ patients. Patients who failed IMMU-132 and/or immune checkpoint inhibitor treatments or have not received either of the treatments are eligible. Patients must not have received treatment for their cancer within 14 days of beginning the trial. Treatments include the use of chemotherapy, hematopoietic growth factors, and biologic therapy such as monoclonal antibodies and CAR-Ts. Patients should recover from all toxicities associated with previous treatment. All patients are evaluated for safety and all blood collections for pharmacokinetic analysis are collected as scheduled. All studies are performed with institutional ethics committee approval and patient consent.


Phase I: Patients receive I.V. on days 1 and 30 of 30-day cycle. Doses may be held or modified for toxicity based on assessments as outlined below. Treatment repeats every 30 days in the absence of unacceptable toxicity. Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of αTROP2×αCD33-Val-Cit-MMAE or αTROP2×αCD33-PEG4-MMAF until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. Dose limiting toxicities are determined according to the definitions and standards set by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 3.0 (Aug. 9, 2006). The MTD is the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) to be administered during Phase II clinical trial.


Phase II: Patients receive αTROP2×αCD33-Val-Cit-MMAE or αTROP2×αCD33-PEG4-MMAF as in phase I at the RP2D. Treatment regimens involve once every 4 or 8 weeks for 2-6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of 2 courses of therapy, patients who achieve a complete or partial response may receive additional 4 courses. Patients who maintain stable disease for more than 8 weeks after completion of 6 courses of study therapy may receive an additional 6 courses at the time of disease progression, provided they meet original eligibility criteria.


Blood Sampling: serial blood is drawn by direct vein puncture before and after administration of αTROP2×αCD33-Val-Cit-MMAE or αTROP2×αCD33-PEG4-MMAF. Venous blood samples (5 mL) for determination of serum concentrations are obtained at about 10 minutes prior to dosing and at approximately the following times after dosing: days 1, 8, and 15. All serum samples are stored at −20° C.


Pharmacokinetics: Patients undergo serum collection for pharmacokinetic evaluation before beginning treatment and at days 1, 8, and 15. Pharmacokinetic parameters are calculated by model independent methods using the latest version of pharmacokinetics evaluation software. The following pharmacokinetics parameters are determined: peak serum concentration (Cmax); time to peak serum concentration (Tmax); area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) from time zero to the last blood sampling time (AUCO-72) calculated with the use of the linear trapezoidal rule; and terminal elimination half-life (T½), computed from the elimination rate constant. The elimination rate constant is estimated by linear regression of consecutive data points in the terminal linear region of the log-linear concentration-time plot. The mean, standard deviation (SD), and coefficient of variation (CV) of the pharmacokinetic parameters are calculated for each treatment. The ratio of the parameter means (preserved formulation/non-preserved formulation) is calculated.


Patient Response: Response rates are determined using the RECIST criteria. (Therasse et al, J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 2000 Feb. 2; 92(3):205-16). Patient response is assessed by imaging with X-ray, CT scans, and MRI. Imaging is performed prior to beginning the study and at the end of the first cycle, with additional imaging performed every four weeks or at the end of subsequent cycles. Patients also undergo cancer/tumor biopsy to assess changes in progenitor cancer cell phenotype and clonogenic growth by flow cytometry, Western blotting, and IHC, and for changes in cytogenetics by FISH. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for 4 weeks.
