Technical Field

The present invention generally relates to multispecific polypeptides that bind at least CD3, a second antigen, and a T cell receptor, such as a co-stimulatory receptor or an inhibitory receptor, wherein the multispecific polypeptide construct is capable of engaging CD 3. In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide construct binds to a co-stimulatory receptor and provides co-stimulatory binding activity. In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide construct binds to an inhibitory receptor and blocks inhibitory activity. In some aspects, the multispecific polypeptide has limited CD3 binding and binds or engages CD3 only after binding to the second antigen, such as a tumor-associated antigen. In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide construct contains a cleavable linker that, when cleaved, results in a dual effector function. Methods of making and using these multispecific polypeptides in a variety of therapeutic, diagnostic, and prophylactic indications are also provided.

Background

Therapeutic antibodies that cause depletion of target cells typically rely on effector functions mediated through interaction with Fc-gamma receptors (fcyr) and complement proteins. Effector cells expressing Fc γ R are mainly those of the innate immune system. T cells are not direct effector cells involved in antibody-mediated depletion of target cells.

The CD3 (cluster of differentiation 3) T cell co-receptor is a multimeric protein composed of four distinct polypeptide chains (called epsilon, gamma, delta, and zeta chains). The CD3 complex serves as a signaling module for the non-covalent association of T cell receptors with the antigen-binding a/b chain of the T Cell Receptor (TCR).

Since direct engagement of CD3 results in T cell activation, it is an ideal target for a variety of therapeutic and/or diagnostic indications. Thus, there is a need for antibodies and therapeutic agents that target the CD3/TCR pathway.

Drawings

Fig. 1 is a schematic representation of the basic components of a multispecific polypeptide construct of the present disclosure with restricted CD3 binding. One or more antigen binding domains are located at the amino and/or carboxy terminus. The Fc region (e.g., heterodimeric Fc region) is located N-terminal to the CD3 binding region. This positioning of Fc close to the CD3 binding region prevents CD3 binding. One or more costimulatory receptor binding domains (CRBRs) are located at the amino and/or carboxy terminus. The exemplary multispecific constructs depicted may also contain a second CRBR if the multispecific molecule has one or two antigen-binding domains.

Fig. 2A-2F depict various representative B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 conjugates with or without CRBR. Fig. 2A depicts a representative B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 conjugate (designated cx3095 or cx3834) without the 4-1BB binding domain as a CRBR. In contrast to cx3095, cx3834 has an opposite knob and hole configuration such that the first polypeptide chain of cx3834 depicted in fig. 2A contains an Fc hole polypeptide and the second polypeptide depicted has an Fc knob polypeptide. A representative B7H 3-targeting restricted CD3 conjugate with a 41BB binding domain as CRBR is depicted in fig. 2B (designated cx3091), cx3091 having a 41BB targeting sdAb located C-terminal to the opposite strand of the heterodimer, thereby exhibiting monovalent binding to 41 BB. Each of the representative constructs cx3095, cx3834 and cx3091 had a B7H 3-targeting sdAb located N-and C-terminal to one strand of the heterodimer, thereby exhibiting bivalent binding to B7H 3. Fig. 2C-2F depict representative B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 conjugates with a B7H 3-targeting sdAb located at the N-and C-terminus of one strand of the heterodimer and a CRBR (e.g., OX40, GITR, ICOS, or CD28 sdAb) located at the C-terminus of the opposite strand of the heterodimer.

Figure 3 depicts a representative 5T4 targeting restricted CD3 conjugate without (top) and with a 41BB binding domain (bottom). cx3546 and cx3547 have the same sdAb targeting 5T4 located at the N-terminus of one strand of the heterodimer (12E9) and a different sdAb targeting 5T4 located at the C-terminus of one strand of the heterodimer (14B 5 or 16G10, respectively). cx3499 and cx3497 are identical to cx3546 and cx3547, respectively, but have 41 BB-targeting sdabs located at the C-terminus of the opposite strand of the Fc heterodimer. Each of cx3546, cx3547, cx3499, and cx3497 contains a cleavable linker between the Fc region and the CD3 binding region. cx5185 and cx5951 are identical, but the former comprises a 4-1 BB-targeted sdAb located C-terminal to the CD3 binding region; both contain a non-cleavable linker between the Fc region and the CD3 binding region and contain humanized versions of the 5T 4-targeted sdAb, hz12E9v9 and hz16G10v11, located at the N-and C-termini of the Fc heterodimer. These representative 5T 4-targeting restricted CD3 conjugates showed bivalent binding to 5T4 and, in constructs containing a 41BB binding domain, monovalent binding to 41 BB.

Figures 4A-4D depict cellular binding of representative B7H 3-targeted restricted CD3 conjugation constructs cx3091 (with 41BB binding domain) and cx3095 (without 41BB binding domain) compared to DART-Fc form B7H3xCD 3. Fig. 4A and 4B show the binding of each of the constructs evaluated to a375 cells (B7H3 positive melanoma cell line). Fig. 4C and 4D depict binding to T cells and demonstrate binding to T cells only by DART-Fc form B7H3xCD3, but lack binding to restricted CD3 engagers containing a 41BB binding domain (cx3091) or lacking a 41BB binding domain (cx 3095). Fig. 4A and 4C show histograms of normalized cell counts versus fluorescence at 200nM for each construct. Complete titrations of each construct on various cell types are shown in fig. 4B and 4D. In fig. 4A and 4C, only the secondary anti-human APC antibody control is shown in the filled black trace; whereas in fig. 4A and 4C, positive control anti-CD 3 binding is shown in empty traces, and cx3091, cx3095, and DART-Fc B7H3xCD3 are shown in gray shaded traces.

Fig. 5A-5D depict the cellular binding of representative restricted CD3 junction constructs cx3497 (with 41BB binding domain) and cx3547 (without 41BB binding domain) targeting 5T 4. Fig. 5A and 5B show binding to Ovcar-5 cells (5T4 positive melanoma cell line). Fig. 5C and 5D depict binding to T cells and show the lack of binding of the tested constructs to isolated T cells. Fig. 5A and 5C show histograms of normalized cell counts versus fluorescence at 200nM for each construct. Complete titrations of each construct on various cell types are shown in fig. 5B and 5D. In fig. 5A and 5C, only the secondary anti-human APC antibody control is shown in the filled black trace; whereas in fig. 5A and 5C, positive control anti-CD 3 binding is shown in the empty trace, and cx3497 and cx3547 are shown in the gray shaded trace.

Figures 6A-6C depict the ability of representative B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 engagement constructs to mediate target antigen-specific agonism of co-stimulatory receptors (41BB or OX 40). In fig. 6A, a representative B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 conjugation construct cx3091 containing a 41BB binding domain was evaluated against Jurkat 41BB nfkb B-luciferase reporter cells, in comparison to a similar construct cx3095 lacking the 41BB binding domain, to evaluate 41BB agonism in the presence of a B7H3 positive cell line a375 and a homologous a 375B 7H3 knock-out cell line (a375 Δ B7H 3). Notably, cx3091 has potent and robust 41BB agonism. cx3095 induced a small amount of NF κ B signaling, probably mediated by TCR/CD3 signaling, independent of 41BB signaling. Representative B7H3 restricted targeting CD3 engagement constructs containing a 41BB binding domain (cx3091), containing an OX40 binding domain (cx3723), or not containing CRBD (cx3834) were evaluated against either an OX40 reporter Jurkat cell line (fig. 6B) or a 41BB reporter Jurkat cell line (fig. 6C) in co-culture with a375 target antigen expressing cells in fig. 6B and 6C.

Figures 7A-7B depict the ability of representative B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 engagement constructs cx3095 and cx3091 and alternative DART-Fc forms targeting B7H3 and CD3 to mediate target antigen-specific T cell activation. Jurkat CD3 NFAT-GFP reporter cells were used to assess T cell activation in the presence of B7H3 positive cell line a375 (fig. 7A) and a 375B 7H3 knockout cell line a375 Δ B7H3 (fig. 7B). Notably, construct cx3091 containing 41BB showed enhanced NFAT signaling, probably due to increased viability and/or decreased depletion of Jurkat cells following TCR/CD3 signaling.

Figures 8A-8D depict the efficacy of T cell-mediated cytotoxicity driven by representative B7H 3-targeting restricted CD3 engagement constructs with (cx3091) and without (cx3095) a 41BB binding domain, as compared to alternative DART-Fc forms targeting B7H3 and CD 3. Titration ranges of 50nM to 80pM of CD3 engagement construct on B7H3 positive a375 cell line are shown in figures 8A and 8C, and 50nM to 80pM of CD3 engagement construct on B7H3 knock-out a549 cell line are shown in figures 8B and 8D. Fig. 8A and 8B show T cell mediated cytotoxicity as determined by total apoptosis (cells positive for caspase-3/7 substrate) between labeled target cells in the corresponding cell lines caused by caspase activation. Fig. 8C and 8D depict target cell depletion resulting from T cell mediated cytotoxicity.

Figures 9A-9E are a series of graphs depicting the efficacy of target-dependent T cell-mediated cytotoxicity against a375 cells induced by B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 engagement constructs incorporating various costimulatory receptor binding regions. Exemplary B7H 3-targeting restricted CD3 engagement constructs that do not incorporate a costimulatory receptor binding domain (cx3834), incorporate an OX40 binding domain (fig. 9A cx3723), incorporate a 41BB binding domain (fig. 9B cx3091), incorporate a GITR binding domain (fig. 9C cx3724), incorporate an ICOS binding domain (fig. 9D cx3721), or incorporate a CD28 binding domain (fig. 9E cx3726) are used herein. Cytotoxicity is shown by the total overlap area to represent target cell apoptosis as measured by quantification of double positive fluorescence of labeled target cells (a375) and caspase-3/7 substrate.

Fig. 10A and 10B depict the kinetics of T cell cytotoxicity against the 5T4 positive cell line Ovcar-5 (fig. 10A) and the 5T4 negative cell line CCRF-CEM (fig. 10B) mediated by representative 5T4 targeting restricted CD3 conjugating constructs cx3497 (with 41BB binding domain) and cx3547 (without 41BB binding domain). Total overlap area indicates double positive: cleaved caspase-3/7 substrate in fluorescently labeled target cells. The initial cytotoxicity observed on antigen negative cell lines may be mediated by MHC mismatches between the target cells and T cells. Notably, only cx3497 containing the 41BB binding domain was able to induce cytotoxicity, and the kinetics were consistent with those of 41BB upregulation after TCR signaling.

Fig. 11A-11D depict the efficacy of T cell activation driven by representative B7H 3-targeting restricted CD3 engagement constructs with a 41BB binding domain (cx3091) and no 41BB binding domain (cx3095) as compared to alternative DART-Fc forms targeting B7H3 and CD 3. Titration ranges of 50nM to 80pM of the CD3 engagement construct on the B7H3 positive a375 cell line are shown in fig. 11A and 11C, and 50nM to 80pM of the CD3 engagement construct on the B7H3 knockout a549 cell line are shown in fig. 11B and 11D. Fig. 11A and 11B show CD 4T cell activation, while fig. 11C and 11D show CD 8T cell activation. T cell activation as evidenced by up-regulation of CD71 was measured by flow cytometry.

Fig. 12A and 12B show a comparison of IFN γ production by T cells treated with representative B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 conjugating constructs with 41BB binding domain (cx3091) and no 41BB binding domain (cx3095) in the presence of B7H3 positive target cell a375 (fig. 12A) and B7H3 negative target cell CCRF-CEM (fig. 12B). Cytokine production was monitored by fluorescent spot assay.

Figure 13 shows a comparison of IFN γ production by T cells treated with representative 5T 4-targeted restricted CD3 conjugating constructs with 41BB binding domains (cx3499 and cx3497) and without 41BB binding domains (cx3546 and cx3547) in the presence of 5T 4-positive Ovcar-5 cells and 5T 4-negative CCRF-CEM cells. Cytokine production was monitored by ELISA. cx3546 and cx3499 contain the same sdAb targeting 5T4, and 3547 and 3497 contain the same sdAb targeting 5T 4. Thus, the only difference between these construct constructs is the addition of the 41BB binding domain. 5T4 targeting restricted CD3 conjugated constructs incorporating a 41BB binding domain showed enhanced ability to induce IFN γ production by T cells in an antigen-dependent manner.

Figures 14A and 14B demonstrate the ability of a constrained CD3 engagement construct incorporating a costimulatory receptor binding domain to mediate specific agonism of a corresponding costimulatory signaling pathway. Jurkat OX40 (FIG. 14A) or Jurkat 41BB (FIG. 14B) NF κ B-luciferase reporter cells were used herein. Exemplary B7H 3-targeting constrained CD3 engagement constructs that do not incorporate a costimulatory receptor binding domain (cx3834), incorporate an OX40 binding domain (cx3723), or incorporate a 41BB binding domain (cx3091) are used herein. It was found that cx3723 and cx3091 incorporated into OX40 or 41BB binding domains, respectively, induced specific agonism of the targeted co-stimulatory receptors. Some induced nfkb signaling was observed with all constructs (including those that did not contain a costimulatory receptor binding region), indicating that target-dependent CD3 signaling mediates nfkb signaling in this system. B7H3 positive cell line a375 was used.

Figures 15A-15C depict the binding of 18H10 and its humanized variant hz18H10v7 to FreeStyle 293 cells expressing human PD-1 (figure 15A), cynomolgus monkey PD-1 (figure 15B) or mouse PD-1 (figure 15C). Binding to untransfected (293) cells was also assessed and shown.

Figure 16 is a graph depicting the binding of 18H10 and its humanized variant, hz18H10v7, to activated human T cells. Binding of the test agent to activated T cells was quantified by flow cytometry.

Figure 17 is a graph depicting the ability of 18H10 and its humanized variant hz18H10v7 to block the PD1/PDL1 mediated repression of T Cell Receptor (TCR) signaling in the Jurkat reporter luciferase assay system.

Fig. 18A-18B depict a series of schematic representations of various TAA-targeting restricted CD3 conjugation constructs containing an anti-PD 1 binding domain. The essential component of the TAA-targeted restricted CD3 engagement constructs of the present disclosure has restricted CD3 binding. One or more antigen binding domains are located at the amino and/or carboxy terminus. The Fc region (e.g., heterodimeric Fc region) is located N-terminal to the CD3 binding region. This positioning of Fc close to the CD3 binding region prevents CD3 binding. In exemplary embodiments, the anti-PD 1 binding domain is N-terminal to the heterodimeric Fc and may contain a 41BB co-stimulatory binding domain that is C-terminal to the anti-CD 3 binding domain.

Figure 19A is a schematic of various B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 constructs composed of two polypeptides, chain 1 and chain 2. Chain 1 contained a heterodimeric Fc "hole" (top) linked via a non-cleavable linker to an anti-CD 3 VL domain modified at G100C; a B7H 3-targeting sdAb linked to a heterodimeric Fc "hole" linked to an anti-CD 3 VL domain (middle) via a non-cleavable linker; or a B7H3 targeting sdAb linked to a heterodimeric Fc "hole" linked via a non-cleavable linker to an anti-CD 3 VL domain modified at G100C (bottom). Chain 2 contains a B7H3 targeting sdAb linked to a complementary heterodimeric Fc "knob" linked via a linker as above to an anti-CD 3 VH domain modified at G44C, which anti-CD 3 VH domain is linked to a second B7H3 sdAb (top); B7H3 targeting sdabs linked to a complementary heterodimeric Fc "knob" linked to the anti-CD 3 VH domain (middle) via a linker as above; or a B7H3 targeting sdAb linked to a complementary heterodimeric Fc "knob" linked via a linker as above to the anti-CD 3 VH domain modified by G44C (bottom). When co-expressed, the CD3 binding domains are correctly assembled via association of VL: VH on the mortar and pestle, respectively. VL interaction, where indicated, is stabilized by an engineered disulfide bond between a modified residue G44C in the VH domain and G100C in the VL domain.

Figure 19B is a schematic of various B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 constructs composed of two polypeptides, chain 1 and chain 2. Chain 1 contains a heterodimeric Fc "hole" linked via a non-cleavable linker to an anti-CD 3 VL domain modified at G100C linked to a sdAb targeting a co-stimulatory receptor. Chain 2 contains a B7H3 targeting sdAb linked to a complementary heterodimeric Fc "knob" linked via a linker as above to an anti-CD 3 VH domain modified at G44C, which anti-CD 3 VH domain is linked to a second B7H3 targeting sdAb (top); a heterodimeric Fc "knob" linked via a linker as above to an anti-CD 3 VH domain modified at G44C, said anti-CD 3 VH domain linked to a B7H3 targeting sdAb (middle); or a B7H3 targeting sdAb linked to a complementary heterodimeric Fc "knob" linked via a linker as above to the anti-CD 3 VH domain modified by G44C (bottom). When co-expressed, the CD3 binding domains are correctly assembled via association of VL: VH on the mortar and pestle, respectively. VL interactions are stabilized by an engineered disulfide bond between a modified residue G44C in the VH domain and G100C in the VL domain. The resulting construct joins B7H3 in a bivalent (top) or monovalent (middle and bottom) manner. All constructs herein express sdabs containing targeted co-stimulatory receptors.

Fig. 19C is a schematic of various B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 constructs composed of three polypeptides, chain 1, chain 2, and chain 3, wherein the B7H3 targeting domain is FAB. Chain 1 contains a VH targeted to BH 73; IgG constant heavy chain 1(CH1) linked via a hinge to a first member of a heterodimeric Fc (Fc-Het-1) linked via a linker as above to an anti-CD 3 VL domain lacking (top) or containing (bottom) a G100C modification. Chain 2 contains a VH targeted to BH 73; IgG constant heavy chain 1(CH1) linked via a hinge to a second member of heterodimeric Fc (Fc-Het-2) linked via a linker as above to an anti-CD 3 VH domain lacking (top) or containing (bottom) G44C modification. Chain 3 contains a complementary B7H 3-targeting VL domain linked to a human Ig Constant Light (CL) region. When co-expressed, the CD3 binding domain is correctly assembled via association of VL: VH on the complementary heterodimeric Fc region. VL interaction, where indicated, is stabilized by an engineered disulfide bond between a modified residue G44C in the VH domain and G100C in the VL domain.

Chain 1 contains a heterodimeric Fc "hole" linked via a non-cleavable linker to an anti-CD 3 VL domain modified at G100C linked to a sdAb targeting a co-stimulatory receptor. Chain 2 contains a DLL3 targeting sdAb linked to a complementary heterodimeric Fc "knob" linked via a linker as above to an anti-CD 3 VH domain modified at G44C, which anti-CD 3 VH domain is linked to a second DLL3 targeting sdAb (top); a heterodimeric Fc "knob" linked via a linker as above to an anti-CD 3 VH domain modified at G44C, said anti-CD 3 VH domain linked to a DLL3 targeting sdAb (middle); or DLL3 targeting sdabs linked to a complementary heterodimeric Fc "knob" linked via a linker as above to the anti-CD 3 VH domain modified by G44C (bottom).

Fig. 21A and 21B depict cellular binding of a representative restricted CD3 engagement construct targeting B7H 3. cx5187 and cx5823 each contain two B7H3 binding domains, while complex cx5873 and cx5965 each contain one B7H3 binding domain. Fig. 21A shows binding to B7H3 positive a375 cells. Figure 21B shows lack of binding to B7H3 negative CCRF-CEM cells and isolated T cells.

Fig. 21C and 21D depict the ability of a representative restricted CD3 engagement construct targeting B7H3 to agonize CD3 in a target-dependent manner. Fig. 21C shows that conjugation of B7H 3-positive a375 cells with a molecule that is bivalent to B7H3 and bi-epitopic (cx5187) induces more efficient CD3 signaling compared to constructs that are monovalent to B7H3 (cx5873 and cx 5965). Figure 21D shows the lack of activation of T cells in the presence of B7H3 negative CCRF-CEM cells. Jurkat CD3 NFAT-GFP reporter cell line was used to assess CD3 agonism.

Figures 22A and 22B depict the ability of representative restricted CD3 engagement constructs targeting B7H3 to induce T cell mediated cytotoxicity in a target-dependent manner. Fig. 22A shows that targeting B7H3 positive a375 cells with a construct that is bivalent to B7H3 and bi-epitopic (cx5187) induces more effective T cell mediated cytotoxicity compared to constructs that are monovalent to B7H3 (cx5873 and cx 5965). Figure 22B depicts the lack of T cell mediated cytotoxicity against B7H3 negative CCRF-CEM cells.

Figures 23A-D depict the representative ability of restricted CD 3-engaging molecules targeting B7H3 to activate T cells in the presence of B7H3 positive a375 cells, but not in the presence of B7H3 negative CCRF-CEM cells. Figures 23A and 23B show that targeting B7H 3-positive a375 cells with a construct that is bivalent and bi-epitopic to B7H3 (cx5187) induces more efficient CD25 expression on CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, respectively, compared to constructs that are monovalent to B7H3 (cx5873 and cx 5965). Fig. 23C and 23D show the lack of CD25 expression on CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, respectively, in the presence of B7H3 negative CCRF-CEM cells.

Figures 24A and 24B demonstrate that the monovalent and bivalent restricted CD3 engagement construct targeting DLL3 binds to the DLL3 expressing cell line SHP-77 (figure 24A), but not to isolated T cells (figure 24B). Binding was assessed by flow cytometry.

Figure 24C depicts the ability of representative restricted CD 3-engaging constructs targeting DLL3 to agonize CD3 signaling in the presence of DLL3 positive SHP-77 cells. Conjugation of DLL3 positive cells with a construct that is bivalent to DLL3 and bi-epitopic (cx5352) induced more efficient T cell activation compared to constructs that were monovalent to DLL3 (cx5800 and cx 5801). The Jurkat CD3 NFAT-luciferase reporter cell line was used to assess CD3 signaling.

Fig. 25A and 25B depict the efficacy of T cell-mediated cytotoxicity driven by exemplary 5T4 targeting restricted CD3 engagement constructs with a 41BB binding domain (cx5185) and without a 41BB binding domain (cx 5951). A titration range of 200nM to 3.1pM for the CD3 engagement construct on the 5T4 positive Ovcar5 cell line is shown in fig. 25A, and a titration range of 200nM to 3.1pM for the CD3 engagement construct on the 5T4 negative CCRF-CEM cell line is shown in fig. 25B.

T cell activation was assessed by flow cytometry monitoring cell surface expression of CD 25.

Figures 28A-F depict T cell proliferation on CD4 (figures 28A-C) and CD8 (figure 28D-F) T cells after incubation with a representative 5T4 targeted restricted CD3 engagement construct with 41BB binding domain (cx5185) and without 41BB binding domain (cx5951) in the presence of various 5T4 positive cell lines a375 (figures 28A and 28D), Ovcar-5 (figures 28B and 28E), SHP-77 (figures 28C and 28F). Via CellTrace^TMDilution of the dye monitored T cell proliferation. The results depict the percentage of proliferating cells, as measured by CellTrace^TMDilution of Violet dye was monitored.

Mitochondrial function was assessed by flow cytometry using MitoTracker Green, a mitochondrial selective fluorescent probe that accumulates in active mitochondria.

Figure 30 shows the ability of 5T4 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct cx5185 with 41BB binding domain to mediate 41BB signaling, but not the same construct cx5951 lacking 41BB binding domain. 41BB signaling was monitored using Jurkat 41BB NFkB-luciferase reporter cell and recombinant plate conjugated 5T4 as the antigen source.

Fig. 31A depicts various representative B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 conjugates having a 4-1BB binding domain as the CRBR. cx5841 and cx5187 have sdabs, Fc stretchers targeting B7H3 located N-and C-terminal to one chain of the heterodimer, and sdabs, Fc mortar targeting 41BB located C-terminal to the opposite chain of the heterodimer, but have CD3 located on the opposite chain relative to each other to bind the VH and VL of the Fv.

FIGS. 31B-E depict the results of T cell reporter assays for the exemplary constructs described in FIG. 31A. FIGS. 31B and 31C depict the Mean Fluorescence Intensity (MFI) of GFP reporters when B7H3 positive cell line A375 or B7H3 negative cell line CCRF-CEM were co-cultured with Jurkat CD3 NFAT-GFP reporter cells, respectively.

Fig. 32 depicts a representative DLL3 targeting restricted CD3 conjugate without the 41BB binding domain (cx5499) (fig. 32A) and with the 41BB binding domain (cx5352) (fig. 32B). cx5499 and cx5352 have sdabs targeting DLL3 located at the N-terminus of one strand of the heterodimer and the C-terminus of the same strand of the heterodimer. cx5352 and cx5499 are identical to each other, except that cx5352 has the 41 BB-targeted sdAb located at the C-terminus of the opposite strand of the heterodimer, whereas cx5499 does not. These representative DLL3 targeting restricted CD3 conjugates showed bivalent binding to DLL3 and, in constructs containing a 41BB binding domain, monovalent binding to 41 BB.

Fig. 33 shows the ability of DLL3 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct cx5352 to mediate 41BB signaling with a 41BB binding domain, but the same construct cx5499 lacking the 41BB binding domain does not. DLL 3-dependent 41BB signaling was monitored using Jurkat 41BB NFkB-luciferase reporter cells co-cultured with parental HEK-293 cells or HEK-293 cells transiently expressing a truncated version of DLL3, and activity was shown as Relative Luciferase Units (RLU).

Human PBMCs were used as a source of T cells.

Figure 36 shows a comparison of IFN γ production from T cells treated with titrating solutions of representative DLL3 targeted restricted CD3 conjugation constructs with 41BB binding domain (cx5352) and without 41BB binding domain (cx5499) in the presence of DLL3 positive cell line SHP-77.

Detailed Description

The present disclosure provides restricted T cell engaging fusion proteins in the form of multispecific polypeptide constructs that bind at least CD3, a second antigen, and a co-stimulatory receptor. The present disclosure also provides restricted T cell engaging fusion proteins in the form of multispecific polypeptide constructs that bind at least CD3, a second antigen, and an inhibitory receptor. The present disclosure also provides T cell engaging fusion proteins in the form of multispecific polypeptide constructs that bind at least CD3, a second antigen, a co-stimulatory receptor, and an inhibitory receptor.

In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide constructs provided herein comprise at least a first component comprising an immunoglobulin Fc region; a second component comprising one or more copies of at least one binding domain that binds CD3 (referred to herein as an anti-CD 3 binding domain or CD3 binding region, which are terms used interchangeably herein); and a linker, such as a polypeptide linker, connecting the first component to the second component. In the multispecific polypeptide constructs provided, one or both of the first and second components comprises at least one antigen-binding domain that, when engaged upon antigen binding, enables the restricted CD3 binding region to substantially bind CD 3. In some embodiments, the antigen is a Tumor Associated Antigen (TAA). In addition, in some aspects, one or both of the first and second components of the multispecific polypeptide construct further comprises at least one co-stimulatory receptor binding region (CRBR) that binds to a co-stimulatory receptor. In other aspects, one or both of the first and second components of the multispecific polypeptide construct further comprises at least one Inhibitory Receptor Binding Region (IRBR) that binds to an inhibitory receptor. In particular aspects of the disclosure provided, one of the first and second components of the multispecific polypeptide construct contains a CRBR, and the other of the first and second components contains an IRBR. In some embodiments, the linker is a non-cleavable linker. In some embodiments, the linker is a cleavable linker.

In some embodiments, provided multispecific polypeptide constructs comprise a configuration in which a first component comprising the Fc region is N-terminal to a second component comprising the CD3 binding region. In such embodiments, the first component and the second component are linked via a linker at the C-terminus of the Fc region. In some embodiments, the one or more antigen binding domains and/or the one or more CRBRs are located on an amino-terminal (N-terminal) region of the multispecific polypeptide construct. In some embodiments, the one or more antigen binding domains and/or the one or more CRBRs are located on a carboxy-terminal (C-terminal) region of the multispecific polypeptide construct. In some embodiments, the one or more antigen binding domains and/or the one or more CRBRs are located on both the N-terminal region and the C-terminal region of the multispecific polypeptide construct. Various configurations of multispecific polypeptide constructs as provided herein are shown in figure 1.

In some embodiments, provided multispecific polypeptide constructs comprise a configuration in which a first component comprising the Fc region is N-terminal to a second component comprising the CD3 binding region. In such embodiments, the first component and the second component are linked via a linker at the C-terminus of the Fc region. In some embodiments, the one or more antigen binding domains and/or the one or more IRBRs are located on an amino-terminal (N-terminal) region of the multispecific polypeptide construct. In some embodiments, the one or more antigen binding domains and/or the one or more IRBRs are located on a carboxy-terminal (C-terminal) region of the multispecific polypeptide construct. In some embodiments, the one or more antigen binding domains and/or the one or more IRBRs are located on both the N-terminal region and the C-terminal region of the multispecific polypeptide construct. Various configurations of multispecific polypeptide constructs as provided herein are shown in figure 18A.

In some embodiments, provided multispecific polypeptide constructs comprise a configuration in which a first component comprising the Fc region is N-terminal to a second component comprising the CD3 binding region. In such embodiments, the first component and the second component are linked via a linker at the C-terminus of the Fc region. In some embodiments, the one or more antigen binding domains and/or the one or more CRBRs are located on an amino-terminal (N-terminal) region of the multispecific polypeptide construct, and the one or more antigen binding domains and/or the one or more IRBRs are located on a carboxy-terminal (C-terminal) region of the multispecific polypeptide construct. In some embodiments, the one or more antigen binding domains and/or the one or more IRBRs are located on an amino-terminal (N-terminal) region of the multispecific polypeptide construct, and the one or more antigen binding domains and/or the one or more CRBRs are located on a carboxy-terminal (C-terminal) region of the multispecific polypeptide construct. Various configurations of multispecific polypeptide constructs as provided herein are shown in figure 18B.

The provided multispecific polypeptide constructs exhibit limited T cell engagement activity, as such constructs only substantially bind to CD3 once the antigen is bound via the antigen-binding domain. This is illustrated in the examples and figures provided herein, which demonstrate the ability of a restricted CD3 adaptor protein to efficiently bind TAA-positive cells while hardly binding T cells. This unique property allows the restricted CD3 adaptor protein to distribute to sites where TAAs are present without binding to peripheral T cells. This format differs from other CD 3-conjugated multispecific constructs in that constitutive CD3 binding is not allowed or eliminated, thereby providing significant benefit by avoiding peripheral T cell binding and allowing preferential distribution to one or more sites where an antigen is present as recognized by the antigen binding domain. For example, as shown in the examples, the restricted CD3 engagement format allows for similar potency as the DART-Fc format (e.g., published PCT application number WO 2017/030926); however, binding to peripheral T cells is significantly reduced. In addition, other CD3 conjugative constructs mediate antigen-dependent T cell activation; however, the multispecific polypeptide constructs provided herein mediate both antigen-dependent T cell binding and activation.

In some aspects, the restricted T cell engagement activity of the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs is due to the positioning of an Fc region at the N-terminus of a CD3 binding region. In some embodiments, such localization reduces, attenuates, suppresses and/or prevents CD3 binding by CD3 binding regions. In the absence of antigen binding by the antigen binding domain, the multispecific polypeptide constructs provided herein exhibit reduced or eliminated CD3 binding and T cell activation capabilities. In some embodiments, the ability to bind CD3 by the CD3 binding region is greatly enhanced in the presence of an antigen binding event mediated by one or more antigen binding domains of the multispecific polypeptide construct. In some embodiments, the ability to activate T cells is substantially enhanced in the presence of an antigen binding event mediated by one or more antigen binding domains of the multispecific polypeptide construct. Engagement of its cognate antigen by one or more antigen binding domains within the multispecific polypeptide construct results in subsequent T cell engagement and mediates antigen-dependent T cell activation, such as cytotoxicity, cytokine release, degranulation, and proliferation. In some embodiments, the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs may be used to increase an immune response, such as to enhance T cell activity, including cytolytic (or cytotoxic) T cell activity. In some aspects, modulation of the immune response can treat a disease or disorder in the subject.

In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure exhibit specificity for CD3, one or more other antigens, and one or more co-stimulatory receptors. In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure exhibit specificity for CD3, one or more other antigens, and one or more inhibitory receptors. In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure exhibit specificity for CD3, one or more other antigens, one or more co-stimulatory receptors, and one or more inhibitory receptors. In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide construct may contain one or more antigen-binding domains, such as 1, 2, or 3 antigen-binding domains, capable of binding to one or more TAAs, such as 2 or 3 antigen-binding domains. In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide construct may contain one or more co-stimulatory receptor binding regions, such as 1, 2, or 3 CRBRs, capable of binding to one or more co-stimulatory receptors (such as 2 or 3 co-stimulatory receptors). In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide construct may contain one or more Inhibitory Receptor Binding Regions (IRBRs), such as 1, 2 or 3 IRBRs, capable of binding to one or more inhibitory receptors, such as 2 or 3 inhibitory receptors. The format of exemplary constructs is shown in FIGS. 1-3 and 18A-B.

In some embodiments, the one or more CRBRs bind to a co-stimulatory receptor expressed on the surface of a T cell. Non-limiting examples of co-stimulatory receptors that CRBR can target include, for example, 41BB, OX40, CD27, GITR, CD28, ICOS, CD40L, BAFFR, BCMA, TACI, or NKG2 d. In some embodiments, the one or more CRBRs are or comprise a binding domain (e.g., sdAb, scFv, or Fab) that binds to the co-stimulatory receptor. As shown herein, the presence of CRBR in the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs increases or potentiates T cell activity upon co-engagement of CD3 with the CD3 binding region.

In some cases, the one or more CRBRs bind to a co-stimulatory receptor that is not constitutively expressed on the T cell. In some embodiments, the one or more CRBRs bind to a co-stimulatory receptor that is upregulated, induced or expressed upon T cell activation. In some embodiments, the CRBR binds to a co-stimulatory receptor that is a member of the Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) receptor family, such as a TNFRSF member that is upregulated, induced, or expressed upon T cell activation. In some embodiments, the CRBR binds to a co-stimulatory receptor that is a B7 family member, such as a B7 family member that is upregulated, induced, or expressed upon T cell activation. Such co-stimulatory receptors whose expression is upregulated or induced surface expression in activated T cells include, for example, 41BB, OX40, and GITR. In some aspects, the CD3 binding region of the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs induces or enhances T cell activation upon binding of the CD3 binding region to CD3, which in turn results in increased or up-regulated expression of such co-stimulatory receptors. In such instances, the binding of CRBR to a co-stimulatory receptor (e.g., 41BB, OX40, or GITR) is increased or becomes available only after the CD3 binding region of the multispecific polypeptide construct engages CD3, thereby modulating the co-stimulatory activity of the provided multispecific construct on the target cell. In some cases, this solves the problem of other T cell engagers, as it avoids the antigen "sink" effect due to binding to CD3 and/or costimulatory receptors expressed on peripheral T cells (e.g., resting T cells or undesired cells), which might otherwise accelerate systemic clearance. In some embodiments, the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs exhibit increased half-life and/or improved pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic properties, such as better tumor exposure, as compared to other T cell engagers capable of binding to peripheral cells (e.g., bispecific T cell engagers, such as DART-Fc).

In some embodiments, the one or more IRBRs bind to an inhibitory receptor expressed on the surface of a T cell. In some aspects, the inhibitory receptor is one that is up-regulated or increased in expression on activated T cells. Non-limiting examples of inhibitory receptors that IRBR can target include, for example, PD-1, CTLA-4, TIGIT, VISTA, TIM3, or LAG 3. In some embodiments, the one or more IRBRs are or comprise a binding domain (e.g., sdAb, scFv, or Fab) that binds to the inhibitory receptor.

In some embodiments, the one or more IRBRs bind to an inhibitory receptor and block or inhibit interaction with its ligand, thereby blocking the inhibitory activity of the T cell. In some embodiments, the IRBR is a PD-1 binding polypeptide that binds to PD-1. In some cases, provided PD-1 binding polypeptides directly block or inhibit the interaction between PD-L1/L2 and PD-1. In some aspects, inclusion of IRBR on the multispecific polypeptide construct inhibits or reduces the interaction between the inhibitory receptor and its ligand (e.g., PD-Ll and/or PD-L2 and PD-1), thereby modulating the immune response. While transmission of an inhibitory signal may result in down-regulation of the immune cell response (and thus down-regulation of the overall immune response), blocking the inhibitory signal in the immune cell results in up-regulation of the immune cell response (and thus up-regulation of the immune response). In some cases, modulation by enhancing the immune response may be useful in treating certain diseases or conditions in which the immune response is suppressed, such as cancer. Typically, the ability to block inhibitory interactions occurs at the immune synapse and/or in the tumor microenvironment after the CD3 binding region binds to CD3 on T cells and/or the antigen binding domain binds to TAAs. In particular embodiments, multispecific polypeptide constructs are provided that reduce, inhibit, or suppress an inhibitory signal mediated by an inhibitory receptor in a cell (e.g., a T cell).

In some embodiments, the one or more antigen binding domains bind to an antigen on a tumor cell or a cell of a tumor microenvironment. In some aspects, the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs may be used to increase an immune response, such as T cell activity, e.g., cytotoxic activity, against a tumor or cancer. In some embodiments, the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs may be used to treat a tumor or cancer in a subject.

In some embodiments, the one or more antigen binding domains bind the same antigen. In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide construct comprises more than one antigen binding domain that binds to different epitopes on the same antigen. In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide construct comprises more than one antigen-binding domain that binds one or more different antigens. In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide construct comprises more than one antigen binding domain that binds to different epitopes on the same antigen, and further antigen binding domains that bind to one or more different antigens. In some examples, provided multispecific polypeptide constructs provide multivalent conjugation to one or more TAAs, such as through at least a first antigen-binding domain and a second antigen-binding domain. For example, in some embodiments, the polypeptide construct comprises at least a first antigen-binding single domain antibody (sdAb) and a second antigen-binding sdAb. In some aspects, the first antigen-binding domain and the second antigen-binding domain bind the same antigen.

Furthermore, in some aspects, the multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure ensure that there will be no or reduced binding of T cells via CD3 in peripheral blood, as the CD3 binding region of these constructs is restricted or otherwise blocked and/or inhibited by the presence of an Fc region. Thus, the multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure provide a number of advantages. In some aspects, these constructs limit the sinking effect caused by binding to all T cells. In some aspects, these constructs reduce systemic toxicity.

In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide constructs provided by the present disclosure allow for controlled biodistribution to a desired site of a subject, such as, for example, a site of tumor-associated antigen (TAA) expression. Sites of TAA expression include, for example, the tumor and the surrounding tumor microenvironment.

In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide constructs provided herein exist in two states with respect to their ability to bind CD3 and subsequently activate T cells: (1) an "inactive" state occurs when binding is not performed by any or all of the one or more antigen binding domains, such that CD3 binding is restricted and T cell interactions are excluded or reduced, and (2) an "active" state occurs when antigen binding is performed by any or all of the one or more antigen binding domains, such that the CD3 binding region is capable of binding CD3 and allowing T cell interactions.

In some embodiments, the Fc region is linked to the CD3 binding domain via one or more linkers. In some embodiments, the Fc region is linked to the CD3 binding region via one or more non-cleavable linkers. In some embodiments, the Fc region is linked to the CD3 binding region via a cleavable linker or one or more otherwise labile linkers.

In some aspects, the multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure allow for therapeutic efficacy in the absence of cleavage (e.g., in the absence of proteolysis). In some embodiments, the linker is a non-cleavable linker.

In some embodiments, the Fc region and the CD3 binding region are linked by a cleavable linker (e.g., a linker that can be specifically cleaved in the presence of a protease). In some aspects, enhanced CD3 binding occurs upon cleavage of the cleavable linker. In some such aspects, the "active" state can be further amplified via several mechanisms, including cleavage via a linker that links the CD3 binding region and the Fc region. In some embodiments, the cleavable linker is a linker that contains a substrate recognition site for a protease. In some embodiments, wherein the Fc region and the CD3 binding region are linked by a cleavable linker, enhanced CD3 binding may occur upon cleavage within the one or more linkers.

In some embodiments, the Fc region is a homodimeric Fc region. In some embodiments, the Fc region is a heterodimeric Fc region. In some embodiments, the Fc region is a monomeric Fc region. In some embodiments, the Fc region of the multispecific polypeptide construct is capable of interacting with an fcyr and mediating innate immune effector functions such as antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP). In some embodiments, the Fc region of the multispecific polypeptide construct is capable of interacting with a complement protein, i.e., C1q, and mediating complement-dependent cytotoxicity. Thus, in some aspects, the multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure allow for multiple immune effector mechanisms, including innate immune effectors and T cells.

In some embodiments, the linker is a cleavable linker. In some embodiments, wherein the Fc region and the CD3 binding region are operably linked by a cleavable linker, cleavage of one or more linkers between the Fc region and the CD3 binding region can separate the multispecific polypeptide construct into a first component and a second component. The first component and the second component may have different functions depending on the composition of the multispecific polypeptide construct. In some embodiments, the Fc region is a region that exhibits one or more effector functions (such as ADCC, CDC or ADCP functions). In such instances, the multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure may be used to generate a self-amplifying system. For example, the multispecific construct may be used as follows: NK cell mediated ADCC upon TAA targeting of the Fc region and CD16 binding results in the release of granzyme B, which is capable of extracellular proteolysis and cleavage of the linker between the first and second components of the multispecific polypeptide construct.

In some aspects, the multispecific polypeptide construct provides a two-in-one therapeutic moiety with dual effector functions, wherein proteolytic activation of the multispecific polypeptide construct (e.g., via the cleavable linker) produces two components that each have biological activity. The multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure are capable of providing Fc-mediated effector functions, such as, for example, ADCC (e.g., release of granzyme B by NK cells), ADCP and/or CDC.

It is envisaged that the constrained CD3 engagement construct is suitable for use with any TAA binding domain, thereby allowing better therapeutic exposure within a tumor or tumor microenvironment by avoiding interaction with peripheral T cells and mediating effective TAA-dependent T cell cytotoxicity. In some aspects, incorporation of a protease-cleavable linker between the Fc and a component of the CD3 binding domain allows for the amplification of T cell activation capacity by allowing for complete exposure of the CD3 binding domain. Depending on the particular linker involved, the amplification step may be mediated by tumor associated proteases or by granzymes released upon antigen-dependent T cell activation. If a tumor protease cleavable linker is included, the amplification is mediated by the tumor or the tumor microenvironment. However, if a granzyme B cleavable linker is included, amplification may be self-mediated by T cells upon antigen dependent activation. Furthermore, where the construct comprises an effector-enabling Fc, amplification may be mediated by granzymes released from NK cells that occur through an ADCC mechanism.

In some embodiments, the cleavable linker is cleaved by a protease that is produced in the tumor microenvironment and/or produced or secreted by T cells upon T cell activation, as may be induced by the initial binding of the CD3 binding region to CD3 in the tumor microenvironment via binding of one or more antigen binding domains to TAAs. In some embodiments, the protease is granzyme B. In some aspects, the multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure exploit the ability of protease and/or granzyme B within a tumor microenvironment to cleave a linker within the multispecific polypeptide construct at a location below an Fc immunoglobulin polypeptide, thereby producing two therapeutically active proteins with (in some cases) different effector cell engagements. In some aspects, following cleavage of the cleavable linker, the cleaved first portion or component retains Fc effector function and bivalent targeting of a first antigen (e.g., such as a TAA) via a first antigen binding domain, and the second portion or component retains the ability to T cell engage, as separation of the CD3 binding region from the Fc region allows CD3 binding. In some cases, the cleaved second portion or component also retains the ability to bind to TAAs, which may be bivalent binding via a second antigen binding domain.

The multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure are designed to ensure that the protease that cleaves the cleavable linker need not be tumor-biased (e.g., need not be differentially expressed only at the tumor site and/or in the tumor environment). Instead, these multispecific polypeptide constructs only require that the protease be present at the same position as the TAA. The valency of these constructs will drive biodistribution and retention within the tumor and/or tumor microenvironment.

In some embodiments, the second part or component comprises a CD3 binding region that is monovalent for CD3 such that T cells will not be activated unless TAAs are present. In some aspects, wherein the multivalent polypeptide construct comprises a cleavable linker, the cleaved second moiety or component allows for TAA-dependent T cell-mediated cytotoxicity. In some cases, the cleaved second part or component ensures that there will be no FcRn interaction. Furthermore, the size of the cleaved second part or component will be small enough, e.g. only about 50kDa, which will ensure a fast clearance if the cleaved second part or component distributes outside the tumor site for any reason after cleavage and/or if it is abnormally cleaved outside the tumor site.

In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure allow for the concurrence of T cell and NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity. In some cases, such activity can occur in a multispecific polypeptide construct containing a first antigen-binding domain (e.g., a first anti-TAA antigen-binding domain) and a second antigen-binding domain (e.g., a second anti-TAA antigen-binding domain) that can target different and/or non-competing epitopes on a given TAA.

In some aspects, the multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure provide a number of advantages over current bispecific therapeutics. The multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure are smaller than conventional therapeutic antibodies (e.g., 150kDa as compared to 125kDa), which would allow for better target (e.g., tumor) penetration. First, the size of the entire multispecific polypeptide construct provides a long half-life for the uncleaved construct, and after cleavage of the construct, the cleaved second part or component will be small enough to ensure a short half-life. In some aspects, the multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure exhibit reduced systemic toxicity or toxicity in any region outside of the tumor and/or tumor microenvironment, as the binding of CD3 by the CD3 binding region is dependent on TAA conjugation prior to the occurrence of CD3 conjugation. In some cases, inclusion of a cleavable linker specific for a protease of the tumor environment reduces CD3 binding by the multispecific construct until proteolytic activation and TAA engagement, thereby amplifying or enhancing CD3 engagement. In addition, the additional presence of CRBR in the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs provides antigen-dependent specific costimulatory signaling to further increase or enhance T cell activity at a desired site or location (e.g., with a tumor and/or tumor microenvironment). Likewise, inclusion of IRBRs in the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs may also enhance T cell activity by removing or blocking checkpoint inhibitory signals.

I. Definition of

Unless defined otherwise, scientific and technical terms used in connection with the present disclosure shall have the meanings that are commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. The term "an" entity or "an" entity refers to one or more of that entity. For example, a compound refers to one or more compounds. Thus, the terms "a", "an", "one or more" and "at least one" are used interchangeably. Furthermore, unless the context requires otherwise, singular terms shall include the plural, and plural terms shall include the singular. Generally, the nomenclature used in connection with, and the techniques of, cell and tissue culture, molecular biology, and protein and oligonucleotide or polynucleotide chemistry and hybridization described herein, are those well known and commonly employed in the art. For recombinant DNA, oligonucleotide synthesis, and tissue culture and transformation (e.g., electroporation, lipofection), standard techniques are used. Enzymatic reactions and purification techniques are performed according to the manufacturer's instructions or as commonly practiced in the art or as described herein. The foregoing techniques and procedures are generally performed according to conventional methods well known in the art and as described in various general and more specific references that are cited and discussed throughout the present specification. See, e.g., Sambrook et al Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual (2 nd edition, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y. (1989)). The nomenclature used in connection with, and the laboratory procedures and techniques of, analytical chemistry, synthetic organic chemistry, and medicinal and pharmaceutical chemistry described herein are those well known and commonly employed in the art. For chemical synthesis, chemical analysis, drug preparation, formulation and delivery and treatment of patients, standard techniques are used.

Unless otherwise indicated, as used in accordance with this disclosure, the following terms are to be understood to have the following meanings:

as used herein, the term "antibody" refers to immunoglobulin molecules and antigen-binding portions or fragments of immunoglobulin (Ig) molecules, i.e., molecules that contain an antigen-binding site that specifically binds (immunoreacts with) an antigen. The term antibody encompasses not only intact polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies, but also fragments thereof, such as dAbs, Fab ', F (ab')₂Fv), single chain (scFv), or single domain antibody (sdAb). Typically, an "antigen-binding fragment" contains at least one CDR of an immunoglobulin heavy and/or light chain that binds to at least one epitope of an antigen of interest. In this regard, the antigen-binding fragment may comprise 1, 2, 3, 4, or more of the Variable Heavy (VH) and Variable Light (VL) sequences from an antibody that binds an antigen,5 or all 6 CDRs, as is typical for antibodies containing VH and VL, six CDRs ("CDR 1", "CDR 2" and "CDR 3" for each of the heavy and light chains), or three CDRs for antibodies containing single variable domains. Antigen-binding fragments include single domain antibodies, such as those containing only a VH or only a VL, including, for example, V _HH、V_NAREngineering of V_HOr V_KA domain.

The basic antibody building block is known to comprise a tetramer. Each tetramer is composed of two identical pairs of polypeptide chains, each pair having one "light" (about 25kDa) and one "heavy" chain (about 50-70 kDa). The amino-terminal portion of each chain includes a variable region of about 100 to 110 or more amino acids primarily responsible for antigen recognition. The carboxy-terminal portion of each chain defines a constant region primarily responsible for effector function. Typically, antibody molecules obtained from humans relate to any of the classes IgG, IgM, IgA, IgE and IgD, which differ from each other by the nature of the heavy chains present in the molecule. Certain classes also have subclasses, such as IgG₁、IgG₂、IgG₃、IgG₄And the like. Furthermore, in humans, the light chain may be a kappa chain or a lambda chain.

As used herein, the term "monoclonal antibody" (mAb) or "monoclonal antibody composition" refers to a population of antibody molecules containing only one molecular species of antibody molecules consisting of a unique light chain gene product and a unique heavy chain gene product. In particular, the Complementarity Determining Regions (CDRs) of a monoclonal antibody are identical in all molecules of the population. mabs contain antigen-binding sites that are capable of immunoreacting with a particular epitope of an antigen, characterized by a unique binding affinity for the antigen.

As used herein, the term "epitope" includes any particular portion of an antigen targeted by an antibody, antibody fragment, or other binding domain. The term "epitope" includes any region of a protein to which specific binding is directed. The term "epitope" includes any protein determinant involved in specific binding to a binding molecule (e.g., an antibody or antigen-binding fragment). Epitopic determinants are typically composed of chemically active surface groups of molecules (e.g., amino acids or sugar side chains) and typically have specific three-dimensional structural characteristics as well as specific charge characteristics. For example, antibodies can be raised against the N-terminal, central, or C-terminal peptide of the polypeptide. In addition, antibodies can be raised against linear or discontinuous epitopes of the polypeptide.

As used herein, the term "specific binding or specific binding" refers to the ability of a binding molecule (e.g., an antibody or antigen binding fragment) to preferentially bind to an antigen in a complex mixture of proteins and/or macromolecules. A binding molecule is considered to exhibit "specific binding" or "preferential binding" if it reacts or associates more frequently and more rapidly with a particular cell or target antigen for a longer duration of time and/or with greater affinity than if it reacts or associates with an alternative cell or target antigen. A binding molecule specifically binds or preferentially binds a target if it binds to the target with greater affinity, avidity and/or for a longer duration than if it binds to other substances. In some aspects, specific binding may refer to the type of non-covalent interaction that occurs between an immunoglobulin molecule and an antigen for which the immunoglobulin is specific. It is to be understood that specific binding or preferential binding is not required (although may be included). Various known methods can be used to quantify or assess binding. The strength or affinity of a binding interaction can be expressed as the dissociation constant (K) of the interaction _d) Of which the smaller K is_dIndicating greater affinity. One such method entails measuring the rates of antigen binding site/antigen complex formation and dissociation, where those rates depend on the concentration of the complex partner, the affinity of the interaction, and geometric parameters that also affect the rates in both directions. Thus, the "association Rate constant" (K)_on) And "dissociation rate constant" (K)_off) Both can be determined by calculating the concentration and the actual association and dissociation rates. (see Nature 361:186-87 (1993)). K_off/K_onIn such a ratio that all affinity-independent parameters can be eliminatedIs a number and is equal to the dissociation constant K_d. (see generally Davies et al (1990) Annual Rev Biochem 59: 439-. Binding constant (K) as measured by an assay such as a radioligand binding assay or similar assay known to those skilled in the art_d) A binding molecule (e.g., an antibody or antigen-binding fragment) is considered to specifically bind at ≦ 1 μ M, e.g., ≦ 100nM in some embodiments, ≦ 10nM in some embodiments, and ≦ 100pM to about 1pM in some embodiments.

The terms "polypeptide" and "protein" are used interchangeably herein and refer to a molecular chain of two or more amino acids linked by peptide bonds. The term includes post-expression modifications of the polypeptide, such as glycosylation, acetylation, phosphorylation, and the like. The term also includes molecules in which one or more amino acid analogs or non-canonical or non-natural amino acids can be synthesized or expressed recombinantly using known protein engineering techniques. In addition, proteins may be derivatized. The protein may be a single polypeptide chain or a polymer of at least two polypeptide chains covalently bonded to each other by, for example, interchain disulfide bonds (dimer). Thus, monomeric, dimeric and higher multimeric polypeptides are within the scope of the defined term. Multimeric polypeptides can be homomultimeric (same polypeptide chain) or heteromultimeric (non-identical polypeptide chain).

The term "isolated protein" as referred to herein means that the subject protein (1) is free of at least some other proteins with which it would normally be found in nature, (2) is essentially free of other proteins from the same source (e.g., from the same species), (3) is expressed by cells from a different species, (4) has been isolated from at least about 50% of polynucleotides, lipids, carbohydrates, or other materials with which it is associated in nature, (5) is not associated with a protein moiety with which it is associated in nature (by covalent or non-covalent interactions), (6) is operably associated with a polypeptide with which it is not associated in nature (by covalent or non-covalent interactions), or (7) does not occur in nature. Such isolated proteins may be encoded by genomic DNA, cDNA, mRNA, or other RNA, or may be of synthetic origin, or any combination thereof. In certain embodiments, the isolated protein is substantially free of proteins or polypeptides or other contaminants found in its natural environment that would interfere with its use (therapeutic, diagnostic, prophylactic, research or otherwise).

The term "polynucleotide" as referred to herein means a nucleotide of at least 10 bases in length, which is either a ribonucleotide or a deoxynucleotide, or a modified form of either type of nucleotide. The term includes both single-stranded and double-stranded forms of DNA. Polynucleotides according to the present disclosure include nucleic acid molecules encoding the polypeptides of the multispecific polypeptide constructs set forth herein.

The term "isolated polynucleotide" as used herein shall mean a polynucleotide of genomic, cDNA, or synthetic origin, or some combination thereof, which, depending on its origin, the "isolated polynucleotide" (1) is not associated with all or a portion of a polynucleotide in which it is found in nature, (2) is operably linked to a polynucleotide that it is not linked to in nature, or (3) does not occur as part of a larger sequence in nature.

The term "operably linked" as used herein means that the components so described are in a relationship that allows them to function in their intended manner. A control sequence "operably linked" to a coding sequence is ligated in such a way that expression of the coding sequence is achieved under conditions compatible with the control sequences.

The term "substantial identity" as applied to polypeptides means that two peptide sequences, when optimally aligned using default GAP weights, such as by the GAP or BESTFIT programs, share at least 80% sequence identity, for example, in some embodiments at least 90% sequence identity, in some embodiments at least 95% sequence identity, and in some embodiments at least 99% sequence identity. In particular, conservative amino acid substitutions are contemplated. Conservative substitutions are those that occur within the relevant family of amino acids in their side chains. Genetically encoded amino acids are generally classified into the following families: (1) the acidic amino acid is aspartic acid or glutamic acid; (2) the basic amino acid is lysine, arginine, histidine; (3) the nonpolar amino acids are alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, methionine, tryptophan, and (4) the uncharged polar amino acids are glycine, asparagine, glutamine, cysteine, serine, threonine, tyrosine. Hydrophilic amino acids include arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, glutamine, glutamic acid, histidine, lysine, serine and threonine. Hydrophobic amino acids include alanine, cysteine, isoleucine, leucine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, tryptophan, tyrosine, and valine. Other amino acid families include (i) serine and threonine, which are aliphatic hydroxyl families; (ii) asparagine and glutamine, which are amide-containing families; (iii) alanine, valine, leucine, and isoleucine, which are aliphatic families; and (iv) phenylalanine, tryptophan, and tyrosine, which are aromatic families. For example, it is reasonable to expect that the substitution of a leucine with an isoleucine or valine, an aspartate with a glutamate, a threonine with a serine, or a similar substitution of an amino acid with a structurally related amino acid in isolation will not have a major effect on the binding or properties of the resulting molecule, particularly if the substitution does not involve amino acids within the framework site. Whether an amino acid change results in a functional peptide can be readily determined by determining the specific activity of the polypeptide derivative. The assays are described in detail herein.

The term "agent" is used herein to mean a chemical compound, a mixture of chemical compounds, a biological macromolecule, or an extract made from biological material.

As used herein, the term "label" or "labeled" refers to the incorporation of a detectable label, for example by the incorporation of a radiolabeled amino acid or attachment to a polypeptide having a biotin moiety that can be detected by labeled avidin (e.g., streptavidin containing a fluorescent label or enzymatic activity that can be detected by optical or calorimetric methods). In some cases, the marker or markers may also be therapeutic. Various methods for labeling polypeptides and glycoproteins are describedAre known in the art and may be used. Examples of labels for polypeptides include, but are not limited to, the following: a radioisotope or radionuclide (e.g.,³H、¹⁴C、¹⁵N、³⁵S、⁹⁰Y、⁹⁹Tc、¹¹¹In、¹²⁵I、¹³¹I) fluorescent labels (e.g., fluorophores, rhodamine, lanthanide phosphors), enzyme labels (e.g., horseradish peroxidase, p-galactosidase, luciferase, alkaline phosphatase), chemiluminescence, biotin groups, predetermined polypeptide epitopes recognized by secondary reporters (e.g., leucine zipper pair sequences, binding sites for secondary antibodies, metal binding domains, epitope tags). In some embodiments, the labels are attached by spacer arms of various lengths to reduce potential steric hindrance.

The term "tumor associated antigen" or "TAA" as used herein refers to an inverse structure that is predominantly present on tumor cells of a mammalian subject, but is not normally found on normal cells of a mammalian subject. Tumor specific antigens need not be unique to tumor cells, but the percentage of specific mammalian cells having tumor associated antigens is sufficiently high or the level of tumor associated antigens on the surface of the tumor is sufficiently high that it can be targeted by an anti-tumor therapeutic agent such as the provided multispecific polypeptide construct and provide prophylaxis or treatment of the effects of the tumor to the mammal. In some embodiments, at least 50% of the cells that exhibit a TAA are cancerous in a random statistical sample of cells from a mammal having a tumor. In other embodiments, at least 60%, 70%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 99% of the cells exhibiting TAA are cancerous.

As used herein, a composition refers to any mixture of two or more products, substances or compounds (including cells). It may be a solution, suspension, liquid, powder, paste, aqueous, non-aqueous, or any combination thereof.

The term "pharmaceutical composition" refers to a composition suitable for medical use in a mammalian subject (typically a human). Pharmaceutical compositions generally comprise an effective amount of an active agent (e.g., a multispecific polypeptide construct) and a carrier, excipient, or diluent. The carrier, excipient or diluent is typically a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, excipient or diluent, respectively.

The terms "treating" or "therapy" of a disease or disorder as used herein mean slowing, stopping or reversing the progression of the disease or disorder by administering a pharmaceutical composition of the present disclosure, alone or in combination with another compound as described herein, as evidenced by a reduction, cessation or elimination of clinical or diagnostic symptoms. "treating" or "therapy" also means a reduction in the severity of symptoms or a reduction in the rate of relapse in an acute or chronic disease or disorder. As used herein in the context of cancer, the term "treatment" or "inhibition" of cancer refers to at least one of the following: a statistically significant decrease in tumor growth rate; the tumor stops growing; or a reduction in the size, mass, metabolic activity or volume of a tumor, as measured by standard criteria such as, but not limited to, the solid tumor Response Evaluation Criteria (RECIST); or a statistically significant increase in Progression Free Survival (PFS) or Overall Survival (OS). "preventing" or "prevention" of a disease or disorder refers to administering a pharmaceutical composition, alone or in combination with another compound, to prevent the occurrence or onset of the disease or disorder or some or all of the symptoms of the disease or disorder, or to reduce the likelihood of the onset of the disease or disorder.

The term "effective amount" or "therapeutically effective amount" refers to the amount and/or concentration of a composition that, when administered to a patient, alone (i.e., as monotherapy) or in combination with an additional therapeutic agent, produces a statistically significant reduction in disease progression (such as, for example, by ameliorating or eliminating the symptoms and/or causes of the disease). An effective amount can be an amount that alleviates, or mitigates at least one symptom or biological response or effect associated with the disease or disorder, prevents progression of the disease or disorder, or improves a physical function of the patient.

As used herein, "substantially pure" means that the target species is the predominant species present (i.e., it is more abundant than any other individual species in the composition on a molar basis), and that a substantially purified fraction is a composition in which the target species comprises at least about 50% (on a molar basis) of all macromolecular species present. Generally, a substantially pure composition will comprise more than about 80%, such as more than about 85%, 90%, 95%, and 99% of all macromolecular species present in the composition. In some embodiments, the target species is purified to be essentially homogeneous (contaminant species in the composition cannot be detected by conventional detection methods), wherein the composition consists essentially of a single macromolecular species.

As used herein, a "subject" is a mammal, such as a human or other animal, and typically a human. Subjects (e.g., patients) include those in need of treatment to treat a disease or disorder. The term patient includes human and veterinary subjects. The subject may be male or female and may be of any suitable age, including infant, juvenile, adolescent, adult and geriatric subjects.

Other Chemical Terms herein are used according to conventional usage in The art, as exemplified by The McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Chemical Terms (Parker, s. editor, McGraw-Hill, san francisco (1985)).

The term "about" as used herein refers to the usual error range for a corresponding value as readily known to those skilled in the art. Reference herein to "about" a value or parameter includes (and describes) embodiments that are directed to that value or parameter per se. For example, a description referring to "about X" includes a description of "X".

2. Immunoglobulin Fc polypeptides

The multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure comprise an immunoglobulin Fc region. In some embodiments, the immunoglobulin Fc region is an IgG isotype selected from: IgG1 isotype, IgG2 isotype, IgG3 isotype, and IgG4 subclass. In some embodiments, the Fc region is a human Fc. In some embodiments, the immunoglobulin Fc region is a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence selected from SEQ ID NOs 1-6. In some embodiments, the immunoglobulin Fc region comprises an Fc chain that is an immunologically active fragment of any one of SEQ ID Nos 1-6. In some embodiments, the immunoglobulin Fc region comprises an Fc polypeptide chain or immunologically active fragment thereof that is at least 50%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identical to the amino acid sequence of any one of SEQ ID NOs 1-6.

In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide construct is a dimer formed from polypeptides each containing an Fc. In some specific embodiments, the same or substantially the same polypeptide will dimerize to produce a homodimer. In some embodiments, the dimer is a homodimer in which the two polypeptides of the multispecific polypeptide construct are the same. In other cases, the Fc region is formed from an Fc domain that is mutated or modified to promote heterodimerization, where different polypeptides may be dimerized to produce heterodimers. Thus, in some embodiments, the dimer is a heterodimer wherein the two polypeptide chains of the multispecific polypeptide construct are different. Exemplary modifications that promote heterodimerization are known, including any as described below.

Typically, in addition to the antigen binding capacity, which is the primary function of an immunoglobulin, the Fc region is also responsible for effector functions such as Complement Dependent Cytotoxicity (CDC) and Antibody Dependent Cellular Cytotoxicity (ADCC). In addition, the FcRn sequence present in the Fc region serves to modulate IgG levels in serum by increasing half-life in vivo by conjugation to the FcRn receptor in vivo. In some embodiments, such functions may be altered (e.g., reduced or enhanced) in the Fc for use with the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs.

In some embodiments, the Fc region of the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs exhibits one or more effector functions. In some cases, the Fc region is capable of providing Fc-mediated effector functions, such as, for example, ADCC (e.g., release of granzyme B by NK cells), ADCP and/or CDC. In some embodiments, wherein the multispecific polypeptide construct comprises a cleavable linker, cleavage of the linker may result in two components each having biological activity: a CD3 binding region capable of binding to and engaging CD3 on a T cell, which in some aspects may further contain a CRBR for inducing a costimulatory signal on a T cell; and an Fc region linked to the TAA antigen binding domain that can exhibit target-specific effector function. In particular embodiments provided herein, the multispecific polypeptide construct contains a non-cleavable linker and may not exhibit independent Fc-mediated effector function in some aspects.

In some embodiments, the Fc region comprises an Fc polypeptide that is mutated or modified to alter one or more effector functions. Various examples of Fc polypeptide mutations (to alter (e.g., reduce) effector function) are known, including any of those described below. In some embodiments, reference to an amino acid substitution in the Fc region is according to EU numbering of K abat (also referred to as Kabat numbering) unless described with reference to a particular SEQ ID NO. EU numbering is known and is according to the latest updated IMGT Scientific Chart (International ImmunoGeneTiCs information systemhttp:// www.imgt.org/IMGTScientific Chart/number/Hu _ IGHGnber. html (creation: 5/17/2001, last update: 1/10/2013) and EU index as reported in Kabat, E.A. et al Sequences of Proteins of Immunological interest, 5 th edition US Deparatent of Health and Human Services, NIH publication No. 91-3242 (1991).

In some embodiments, provided multispecific polypeptide constructs containing Fc regions that exhibit reduced effector function may be ideal candidates for applications in which limited CD3 binding is desired, but certain effector functions (such as CDC and ADCC) are unnecessary or detrimental. In vitro and/or in vivo cytotoxicity assays may be performed to confirm the reduction/depletion of CDC and/or ADCC activity. For example, an Fc receptor (FcR) binding assay may be performed to ensure that the multispecific polypeptide construct and/or cleavage component thereof lacks fcyr binding (and thus may lack ADCC activity), but retains FcRn binding capability. Primary cell NK cells mediating ADCC express Fc γ RIII only, whereas monocytes express Fc γ RI, Fc γ RII and Fc γ RIII. Non-limiting examples of in vitro assays for assessing ADCC activity of a molecule of interest are described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,500,362 (see, e.g., Hellstrom, I. et al Proc. nat 'l Acad. Sci. USA 83:7059-7063(1986)) and Hellstrom, I. et al, Proc. nat' l Acad. Sci. USA 82:1499-1502 (1985); U.S. Pat. No. 5,821,337 (see Bruggemann, M. et al, J.Exp. Med.166:1351-1361 (1987)). Alternatively, non-radioactive assay methods can be employed (see, e.g., ACTI for flow cytometry) ^TMNon-radioactive cytotoxicity assays (CellTechnology, inc., mountain landscape, ca); and Cytotox 96^TMNon-radioactive cytotoxicity assay (Promega, madison, wisconsin)). Useful effector cells for such assays include Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) and Natural Killer (NK) cells. Alternatively or additionally, it may be in vivo (e.g. in animal models, such as Clynes et al Proc. nat' l Acad. Sci. USA 95: 652-. A C1q binding assay may also be performed to confirm that the multispecific polypeptide construct or cleavage component thereof is unable to bind C1q and therefore lacks CDC activity. See, e.g., WO 2006/029879 and WO 2005/100402 for C1q and C3C binding ELISA. To assess complement activation, CDC assays can be performed (see, e.g., Gazzano-Santoro et al, J.Immunol. methods 202:163 (1996); Cragg, M.S. et al, Blood 101: 1045-. FcRn binding and in vivo clearance/half-life assays can also be performed using methods known in the art (see, e.g., Petkova, s.b. et al, Int' l.immunol.18(12): 1759-.

In some embodiments, the immunoglobulin Fc region or immunologically active fragment thereof is of the IgG isotype. For example, the immunoglobulin Fc region of the fusion protein is of the human IgG1 isotype, having the amino acid sequence:

in some embodiments, the immunoglobulin Fc region or immunologically active fragment thereof comprises a human IgG1 polypeptide sequence that is at least 50%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identical to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID No. 1.

In some embodiments, an IgG1 Fc polypeptide or variant thereof (any of which are described below) can be prepared as a G1 m1 or a G1 m3 allotype. In some embodiments, the Fc region may contain the amino acids of the human G1 m1 allotype, such as residues asp (d) and leu (l) at positions 356 and 358, for example as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1. In some cases, the Fc polypeptide may contain amino acid substitutions E356D and M358L to reconstitute the residues of allotype G1M 1. In other embodiments, the Fc region may contain the amino acids of the human G1 m3 allotype, such as residues Glu (E) and Met (M) at positions 356 and 358 according to EU numbering, for example as shown in SEQ ID NOS: 194 and 195. In some cases, the Fc polypeptide may contain amino acid substitutions D356E and L358M to reconstitute the residues of allotype G1 m 3.

In some embodiments, the human IgG1 Fc region is modified to alter Antibody Dependent Cellular Cytotoxicity (ADCC) and/or Complement Dependent Cytotoxicity (CDC), e.g., Natsume et al, 2008Cancer Res,68(10): 3863-72; idusogene et al, 2001J Immunol,166(4): 2571-5; moore et al, 2010mAbs,2(2): 181-189; lazar et al, 2006PNAS,103(11) 4005-; shields et al, 2001JBC,276(9) 6591-6604; stavenhagen et al, 2007Cancer Res,67(18): 8882-; stavenhagen et al, 2008Advan. enzyme Regul, 48: 152-; alegr et al, 1992J Immunol,148: 3461-; amino acid modifications reviewed in Kaneko and Niwa,2011Biodrugs,25(1):1-11, the contents of each of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.

In some embodiments, the Fc region (e.g., a human IgG1 Fc region) is modified to enhance ADCC activity or CDC activity. Examples of mutations that enhance ADCC include modifications at Ser239 and Ile332, such as Ser239Asp and Ile332Glu (S239D, I332E). Examples of CDC enhancing mutations include modifications at Lys326 and Glu 333. In some embodiments, the Fc region is modified at one or both of these positions using the Kabat numbering system, e.g., Lys326Ala and/or Glu333Ala (K326A and E333A).

In some embodiments, the Fc region is altered to provide reduced Fc-mediated effector function, such as via reduced Fc receptor binding, e.g., binding to fcyr, but no FcRn overall. In some embodiments, the human IgG1 Fc region fusion proteins of the present disclosure lack or have reduced fucose attached to the N-linked glycan chain at N297. There are a variety of ways to prevent fucosylation, including but not limited to production in FUT 8-deficient cell lines; adding an inhibitor, such as Castanospermine (Castanospermine), to the mammalian cell culture medium; and metabolic engineering of the production cell line. In some embodiments, the human IgG1 Fc region is modified at amino acid Asn297 (boxed, Kabat numbering) to prevent glycosylation of the fusion protein, e.g., Asn297Ala (N297A) or Asn297Asp (N297D).

In some embodiments, the Fc region of the fusion protein is altered to reduce Fc receptor binding at one or more of the following positions: leu234 (L234), Leu235(L235), Asp265(D265), Asp270(D270), Ser298(S298), Asn297(N297), Asn325(N325), or Ala327(a 327).

In some embodiments, the Fc region of the fusion protein is modified at amino acid Leu235 (boxed in SEQ ID NO:1, Kabat numbering above) to alter Fc receptor interactions, e.g., Leu235Glu (L235E) or Leu235Ala (L235A). In some embodiments, the Fc region of the fusion protein is modified at amino acid Leu234 (boxed in SEQ ID NO:1, Kabat numbering above) to alter Fc receptor interactions, e.g., Leu234Ala (L234A). In some embodiments, the Fc region of the fusion protein is altered at both amino acids 234 and 235, e.g., Leu234Ala and Leu235Ala (L234A/L235A) or Leu234Val and Leu235Ala (L234V/L235A). In preferred embodiments, the modification within the Fc region reduces binding to Fc receptor-gamma receptor while having minimal effect on binding to neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn).

In some embodiments, the human IgG Fc region is modified to enhance FcRn binding. Examples of Fc mutations that enhance binding to FcRn are Met252Tyr, Ser254Thr, Thr256Glu (M252Y, S254T, T256E, respectively) (Kabat numbering, Dall' Acqua et al 2006, J.biol Chem 281, Vol 33, 23514-. In some embodiments, the mutated or modified Fc polypeptide comprises the following mutations: met252Tyr and Met428Leu or Met252Tyr and Met428Val using the Kabat numbering system (M252Y, M428L or M252Y, M428V).

In some embodiments, the Fc region of the fusion protein lacks an amino acid at one or more of the following positions to reduce Fc receptor binding: glu233(E233), Leu234(L234), or Leu235 (L235). In these embodiments, the Fc deletion of these three amino acids reduces complement protein C1q binding.

In some embodiments, the human I gG4 Fc region lacks Lys447(Kabat et al 1991Sequences of Proteins of immunological Interest, EU index).

In some embodiments, the human IgG Fc region is modified at the CH3: CH3 interface to stabilize homodimerization by introducing two disulfide bonds to change Ser354 to Cys (S354C) and Tyr349 to Cys (Y349C) (S354C/Y349C).

In particular embodiments of the multispecific polypeptide constructs provided herein, the human IgG Fc region is modified to induce heterodimerization. Various methods are known for promoting heterodimerization of complementary Fc polypeptides, see, e.g., Ridgway et al, Protein Eng.9:617-621 (1996); merchant et al, nat. Biotechnol.16(7):677-81 (1998); moore et al (2011) MAbs,3: 546-57; von Kreudenstein et al MAbs, (2013)5: 646-54; gunasekaran et al (2010) J.biol.chem.,285: 19637-46; leave-Fay et al (2016) Structure,24: 641-51; ha et al (2016) Frontiers in Immunology,7: 1; davis et al (2010) Protein Eng Des Sel,23: 195-202; published international PCT application numbers WO 1998/050431, WO 2009/089004, WO 2011143545 WO 2014/067011, WO 2012/058768, WO 2018027025; published U.S. patent application nos. US 20140363426, US 20150307628, US 20180016354, US 20150239991; and US patent numbers US5731168, US 7183076, US 9701759, US 9605084 and US 9650446. Methods to promote heterodimerization of Fc chains include mutagenizing the Fc region, such as by including a set of "knob and hole" mutations or including mutations to achieve electrostatic manipulation of Fc to facilitate attractive interactions between different polypeptide chains. For example, in some embodiments, the heterodimeric Fc polypeptides comprise mutations to alter the charge polarity across the Fc dimer interface such that co-expression of electrostatically matched Fc chains supports favorable attractive interactions, thereby promoting desirable Fc heterodimer formation, while unfavorable repulsive charge interactions suppress undesirable Fc homodimer formation (Guneskaran et al (2010) JBC,285: 19637-. When co-expressed in a cell, association between chains is possible, but the chains do not substantially self-associate due to charge repulsion. Other strategies for generating heterodimeric Fc include mixing human IgG and IgA CH3 domain segments to generate complementary CH3 heterodimers, which are referred to as SEED Fc.

Methods and variants of heterodimerization also include those described in published international PCT application WO 2014/145806, including "knob and hole" mutations (also referred to as "skew" variants), mutations associated with "electrostatic manipulation" or "charge pair", and pI variants. Heterodimeric variants also include any of those described in U.S. published application nos. US 2012/0149876 or US 2018/011883.

In some embodiments, to promote heterodimerization, both polypeptides of the Fc heterodimer contain paired or complementary amino acid modifications. Exemplary pairwise amino acid modifications of the polypeptides of the Fc fusions are shown in table 1.

In some embodiments, the modification comprises introducing a knob (knob) into the first Fc polypeptide and introducing a cavity (hole) into the second Fc polypeptide such that the knob can be positioned in the cavity to facilitate complexation of the first Fc-containing polypeptide and the second Fc-containing polypeptide. The amino acids targeted for substitution and/or modification to create a protuberance or cavity in a polypeptide are typically interfacial amino acids that interact or contact one or more amino acids in the interface with a second polypeptide.

In some embodiments, a first Fc polypeptide modified to contain a bulge (socket) amino acid comprises replacing a native or original amino acid with an amino acid having at least one side chain that protrudes from the interface of the first Fc polypeptide and thus can be located in a compensatory cavity (socket) in an adjacent interface of a second polypeptide. Most commonly, a replacement amino acid is an amino acid with a larger side chain volume than the original amino acid residue. Those skilled in the art know how to determine and/or evaluate the identity of amino acid residues to identify desirable alternative amino acids that produce a protuberance. In some embodiments, the replacement residue used to form the protuberance is a naturally occurring amino acid residue and includes, for example, arginine (R), phenylalanine (F), tyrosine (Y), or tryptophan (W). In some examples, the original residue identified for substitution is an amino acid residue with a small side chain, such as, for example, alanine, asparagine, aspartic acid, glycine, serine, threonine, or valine.

In some embodiments, the second Fc polypeptide modified to contain a cavity (socket) is a polypeptide comprising the replacement of a native or original amino acid with an amino acid having at least one side chain that is recessed from the interface of the second polypeptide, and thus is capable of accommodating a corresponding protrusion from the interface of the first polypeptide. Most commonly, a replacement amino acid is an amino acid with a smaller side chain volume than the original amino acid residue. Those skilled in the art know how to determine and/or evaluate the identity of amino acid residues to identify alternative residues that are ideal for cavity formation. Typically, the replacement residues used to form the cavity are naturally occurring amino acids and include, for example, alanine (a), serine (S), threonine (T), and valine (V). In some examples, the original amino acid identified for substitution is an amino acid with a large side chain, such as, for example, tyrosine, arginine, phenylalanine, or tryptophan.

For example, the CH3 interface of human IgG1 comprises sixteen residues per domain located on four antiparallel beta strands and embedded 10902 from each surface (see, e.g., Deisenhofer et al (1981) Biochemistry,20: 2361. sup. 2370; Miller et al, (1990) J mol. biol. 216,965. 973; Ridgway et al, (1996) prot. Engin. 9: 617. sup. 621; U.S. Pat. No. 5,731,168). CH3 domain modifications for generating a protuberance or cavity are described, for example, in U.S. Pat. nos. 5,731,168; international patent applications WO 98/50431 and WO 2005/063816; and Ridgway et al, (1996) prot. Engin, 9: 617. sup. 621. In some instances, the CH3 domain modifications used to create the protuberance or cavity are typically directed to residues located on the two central antiparallel beta strands. The aim is to minimize the risk that the resulting protrusion can be accommodated by protruding into the surrounding solvent rather than by a compensation cavity in the partner CH3 domain.

For example, in some embodiments, the heterodimeric Fc comprises a polypeptide within the CH3 domain having an amino acid modification at Thr366 that, when substituted with a larger volume amino acid (e.g., Try (T366W)), is capable of preferentially pairing with a second CH3 domain having amino acid modifications at positions Thr366, Leu368, and Tyr407 of a smaller volume amino acid (e.g., Ser, Ala, and Val (T366S/L368A/Y407V), respectively). Heterodimerization via CH3 modification can be further stabilized by introducing a disulfide bond, for example, by changing Ser354 to Cys (S354C) and Tyr349 to Cys (Y349C) on the opposite CH3 domain (reviewed in Carter,2001Journal of Immunological Methods,248: 7-15).

In particular embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide construct comprises a first Fc and a second Fc capable of mediating Fc heterodimerization, said first Fc and said second Fc comprising a first Fc polypeptide comprising mutations T366W and S354C and a second Fc polypeptide comprising mutations T366S, L368A, Y407V, and Y349C. In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide is selected from Fc polypeptides comprising the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NOs 291 or 297 and the second Fc polypeptide is selected from Fc polypeptides comprising the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NOs 292, 295 or 299. In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs 82, 86, 94, or 96, and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs 83, 87, 90, 92, 98, or 100.

In some embodiments, the Fc polypeptide exhibits characteristics that provide Fc-mediated effector function. In a specific example, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 291 and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises SEQ ID No. 292 or 295. In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 82 and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 83 or 90. In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID No. 86 and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID No. 87 or 92. The first Fc polypeptide and the second Fc polypeptide can be formatted on either polypeptide chain of the construct.

In some embodiments, one or both of the first Fc polypeptide and the second Fc polypeptide may further comprise one or more amino acid mutations to further reduce one or more Fc effector functions, such as reduced Fc receptor binding. Exemplary mutations that reduce Fc effector function include any of those described. In some embodiments, the modification may be a deletion of one or more of positions Glu233(E233), Leu234(L234), or Leu235(L235), such as a deletion of amino acids Glu233(E233), Leu234(L234), and Leu235 (L235). In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide is selected from Fc polypeptides comprising the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NOs 293 or 298 and the second Fc polypeptide is selected from Fc polypeptides comprising the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NOs 294, 296, or 300. In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs 84, 88, 95, or 97, and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs 85, 89, 91, 93, 99, or 101.

In a specific example, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 293 and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises SEQ ID No. 294 or 296. In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID No. 84 and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID No. 85 or 91. In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID No. 88 and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID No. 89 or 93. The first Fc polypeptide and the second Fc polypeptide can be formatted on either polypeptide chain of the construct.

In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide or the second Fc polypeptide further comprises mutations M252Y and/or M428V. In a specific example, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:297 and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 299. In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 94 and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 98. In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 96 and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 100. In other examples, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID No. 298 and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence set forth in SEQ ID No. 300. In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 95 and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 99. In some embodiments, the first Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 97 and the second Fc polypeptide is or comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 101. The first Fc polypeptide and the second Fc polypeptide can be formatted on either polypeptide chain of the construct.

Further examples of variants that may contribute to heterodimers are spatial variants (e.g., skewed variants) from any combination or pair of first and second Fc polypeptides in: S364K/E357Q and L368D/K370S; L368D/K370S and S364K; L368E/K370S and S364K; T411T/E360E/Q362E and D401K; L368D/K370S and S364K/E357L; K370S and S364K/E357Q; and T366S/L368A/Y407V and T366W or 366S/L368A/Y407V/Y349C and T366W/S354C), wherein each pair represents a mutation in the first and second Fc polypeptides. In particular embodiments, provided constructs comprise a first Fc polypeptide comprising the pair of mutations L368D/K370S and S364K and E357Q and a second Fc polypeptide.

Additional mechanisms that can be used to produce heterodimers are sometimes referred to as "electrostatic manipulation" as described in Gunasekaran et al, J.biol.chem.285(25):19637 (2010). This is sometimes referred to herein as a "charge pair". In this embodiment, formation of skewed heterodimerization is achieved using static electricity. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, these may also have an effect on pI, and thus on purification, and thus may also be considered pI variants in some cases. However, since these were generated to force heterodimerization and were not used as purification tools, they were classified as "spatial variants". In one embodiment, the first Fc polypeptide may contain the mutations D221E/P228E/L368E and the second Fc polypeptide may contain the mutations D221R/P228R/K409R. In another embodiment, the first Fc polypeptide may contain the mutations C220E/P228E/368E and the second Fc polypeptide may contain the mutations C220R/E224R/P228R/K409R.

In some embodiments, heterodimerization may be promoted by pI variants. In some aspects, pI variants can include those that increase the pI (basic change) of a protein. In other aspects, pI variants can include those that reduce the pI (acidic change) of a protein. In some cases, all combinations of these variants may be made, including combinations in which one Fc polypeptide may be wild-type or a variant that does not exhibit a significantly different pI than wild-type, while another Fc polypeptide may be more basic or more acidic. Alternatively, each Fc polypeptide may be altered, one to be more basic and one to be more acidic. In some embodiments, at least one Fc polypeptide is a negative pI variant Fc containing the mutations Q295E/N384D/Q418E/N421D.

In some embodiments, a combination of a sterically heterodimerization variant (e.g., a knob and a hole) and a pI or charge pair variant may be used.

In particular embodiments, provided constructs comprise (a) a first Fc polypeptide comprising skew variant S364K/E357Q; and b) a second Fc polypeptide comprising the skew variant L368D/K370S and the pI variant N208D/Q295E/N384D/Q418E/N421D. In some embodiments, one or both of the first and second polypeptides may contain further mutations to reduce Fc effector activity, such as the exemplary mutations E233P/L234V/L235A/G236 del/S267K. Examples of such first and second Fc polypeptides capable of mediating Fc heterodimerization include the sequences shown in SEQ ID NOS: 285 and 286. The first Fc polypeptide and the second Fc polypeptide can be formatted on either polypeptide chain of the construct.

The resulting multispecific polypeptide construct may be purified by any suitable method, such as, for example, by affinity chromatography on a protein a or protein G column. In the case of transforming two nucleic acid molecules encoding different polypeptides into a cell, homodimers and heterodimers will be formed. The expression conditions may be adjusted such that heterodimer formation is favored over homodimer formation.

Techniques are known for recovering heterodimers from homodimers based on their different affinities for affinity reagents. In some aspects, such techniques include designing the heterodimer such that one of the Fc polypeptide chains does not bind to affinity reagent protein a. In some cases, one of the polypeptide chains may contain one or more amino acid substitutions to eliminate or reduce the affinity of one of the polypeptides of the Fc heterodimer for a protein a agent, see, e.g., WO 2017134440, WO 2010151792, Jendeber et al (Jendeberg et al, (1997) j.immunol.methods,201(1): 25-34). In some of these embodiments, the Fc region may be modified at a protein a binding site on one member of the heterodimer to prevent protein a binding, thereby enabling more efficient purification of the heterodimeric fusion protein. An exemplary modification within this binding site is Ile253, e.g., Ile253Arg (I253R). In some embodiments, the modification may be H435R or H435R/Y436F. In some embodiments, the Fc polypeptide of the Fc heterodimer may contain modifications such that it is capable of binding protein a but not protein G (pA +/pG-). Exemplary pA +/pG-amino acid modifications include Fc containing a serine at position 428, a serine at position 434, and optionally a histidine at position 436, with reference to human IgGl or inclusion of these residues at corresponding positions in human IgG 2, 3, or 4. In some aspects, such amino acid modifications at positions 428, 434 and optionally 436 in an IgG Fc polypeptide reduce or prevent binding of protein G, thereby enhancing purification of the protein.

In some embodiments, any such modifications that confer differential affinity for an affinity reagent may be combined with any one or more of the other amino acid modifications described above. For example, the I253R modification may be combined with a T366S/L368A/Y407V modification or with a T366W modification. The T366S/L368A/Y407V modified Fc was able to form homodimers because there was no steric occlusion of the dimerization interface as in the case of the T336W modified Fc. Thus, in some embodiments, the I253R modification is combined with the T366S/L368A/Y407V modified Fc, thereby not allowing for the purification of any homodimeric Fc that may have formed. Similar modifications can be employed by combining T366S/L368A/Y407V and H453R.

In some embodiments, the Fc region of the heterodimeric molecule may additionally contain one or more other Fc mutations, such as any of those described above. In some embodiments, the heterodimeric molecule contains an Fc region with a mutation that reduces effector function.

In some embodiments, one Fc polypeptide of a heterodimeric Fc comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs 291 (e.g., SEQ ID NOs 82 or 86) or 297 (e.g., SEQ ID NOs 94 or 96), and another Fc polypeptide of the heterodimeric Fc comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs 201 (e.g., SEQ ID NOs 83 or 87), 295 (e.g., SEQ ID NOs 90 or 92), or 299 (e.g., SEQ ID NOs 98 or 100). In some embodiments, one Fc polypeptide of a heterodimeric Fc comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NO:293 (e.g., SEQ ID NO:84 or 88) or 298 (e.g., SEQ ID NO:95 or 97), and another Fc polypeptide of the heterodimeric Fc comprises the amino acid sequence set forth in any one of SEQ ID NO:294 (e.g., SEQ ID NO:85 or 89), 296 (e.g., SEQ ID NO:91 or 93), or 300 (e.g., SEQ ID NO:99 or 101).

In some embodiments, the human IgG Fc region is modified to prevent dimerization. In these embodiments, the fusion proteins of the disclosure are monomeric. For example, a modification to a charged residue at residue Thr366, such as Thr366Lys, Thr366Arg, Thr366Asp or Thr366Glu (T366K, T366R, T366D or T366E, respectively) would prevent CH3-CH3 dimerization.

In some embodiments, the fusion protein comprises a polypeptide derived from an immunoglobulin hinge region. The hinge region may be selected from any of the human IgG subclasses. For example, the fusion protein may contain a modified IgG1 hinge having the sequence of EPKSSDKTHTCPPC (SEQ ID NO:7) in which Cys220, which forms a disulfide with the C-terminal cysteine of the light chain, is mutated to a serine, such as Cys220Ser (C220S). In other embodiments, the fusion protein contains a truncated hinge having sequence DKTHTCPPC (SEQ ID NO: 8).

In some embodiments, the fusion protein has a modified hinge from IgG4 having the sequence ESKYGPPCPPC (SEQ ID NO:9) modified to prevent or reduce strand exchange, e.g., Ser228Pro (S228P). In some embodiments, the fusion protein comprises a linker polypeptide. In other embodiments, the fusion protein contains a linker and a hinge polypeptide.

3. Joint

Multispecific polypeptide constructs are provided that contain a linker that links or couples a first component that contains the immunoglobulin Fc region and a second component that contains the CD3 binding region. In some embodiments, the linker is located at the end of the C-terminal region of the Fc region, such that the Fc region is N-terminal to the CD3 binding region. Because the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs are multimers, such as dimers comprising the first and second polypeptides that together form the first and second components, the provided constructs comprise a linker that links the Fc portion of the first polypeptide to the CD3 binding region and a linker that links the Fc portion of the second polypeptide to the CD3 binding region. In some embodiments, the first polypeptide comprises a first Fc polypeptide of a heterodimeric Fc region, a linker, and a first domain of a CD3 binding region (e.g., VH), and the second polypeptide comprises a second Fc polypeptide of the heterodimeric Fc region, a linker, and a second domain of the CD3 binding region (e.g., VL). Typically, the linkers present in the first and second polypeptides of the multispecific polypeptide construct are the same. Thus, in some embodiments, each domain of the CD3 binding domain is linked to an opposing polypeptide of the Fc (e.g., heterodimeric Fc) via a linker (e.g., the same linker).

Various polypeptide linkers for fusion proteins are known (see, e.g., Chen et al (2013) adv. drug. Deliv.65: 1357-one 1369; and International PCT publication Nos. WO 2014/099997, WO 2000/24884; U.S. Pat. No. 5,258,498; U.S. Pat. No. 5,525,491; U.S. Pat. No. 5,525,491; U.S. Pat. No. 6,132,992).

In some embodiments, the linker is selected such that when the CD3 binding region is linked to the Fc region of the multispecific polypeptide conjugate, the CD3 binding region is restricted and unable or substantially unable to bind or engage CD3 on the surface of a cell (e.g., T cell) when the multispecific polypeptide construct is contacted with the cell. Various assays can be employed to assess binding or engagement of CD3 by the multispecific polypeptide construct, including assays to assess T cell binding, NFAT activation using a reporter system, cytolytic T cell activity, cytokine production, and/or expression of T cell activation markers. Exemplary assays are shown in the examples provided. Typically, the linker is also one that ensures proper folding of the polypeptide construct, does not exhibit a charge that is inconsistent with the activity or function of the linked polypeptide, or does not form a bond or other interaction with amino acid residues in one or more domains that would hinder or alter the activity of the linked polypeptide. In some embodiments, the linker is a polypeptide linker. The polypeptide linker may be a flexible linker or a rigid linker or a combination of both.

In some aspects, the linker is a short, medium, or long linker. In some embodiments, the linker is up to 40 amino acids in length. In some embodiments, the linker is up to 25 amino acids in length. In some embodiments, the linker is at least or at least about 2 amino acids in length. In some aspects, suitable lengths are, for example, at least one and typically less than about 40 amino acid residues in length, such as 2-25 amino acid residues, 5-20 amino acid residues, 5-15 amino acid residues, 8-12 amino acids. In some embodiments, the linker is from or from about 2 to 24 amino acids, 2 to 20 amino acids, 2 to 18 amino acids, 2 to 14 amino acids, 2 to 12 amino acids, 2 to 10 amino acids, 2 to 8 amino acids, 2 to 6 amino acids, 6 to 24 amino acids, 6 to 20 amino acids, 6 to 18 amino acids, 6 to 14 amino acids, 6 to 12 amino acids, 6 to 10 amino acids, 6 to 8 amino acids, 8 to 24 amino acids, 8 to 20 amino acids, 8 to 18 amino acids, 8 to 14 amino acids, 8 to 12 amino acids, 8 to 10 amino acids, 10 to 24 amino acids, 10 to 20 amino acids, 10 to 18 amino acids, 10 to 14 amino acids, 10 to 12 amino acids, 12 to 24 amino acids, 12 to 20 amino acids, 12 to 18 amino acids, 12 to 14 amino acids, 2 to 18 amino acids, 6 to 14 amino acids, 6 to 24 amino acids, 8, 14 to 24 amino acids, 14 to 20 amino acids, 14 to 18 amino acids, 18 to 24 amino acids, 18 to 20 amino acids, or 20 to 24 amino acids. In some embodiments, the linker is 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, or 20 amino acids in length.

In certain aspects, the longer the linker length, the stronger the binding of CD3 when the multispecific polypeptide conjugate binds to its antigen (e.g., TAA). Thus, in some aspects, the linker is greater than 12 amino acids in length, such as greater than 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, or 18 amino acids in length. In some embodiments, the linker is 12 to 40 amino acids, 12 to 30 amino acids, 12 to 24 amino acids, 12 to 18 amino acids, 12 to 15 amino acids, 15 to 40 amino acids, 15 to 30 amino acids, 15 to 24 amino acids, 15 to 18 amino acids, 18 to 40 amino acids, 18 to 30 amino acids, 18 to 24 amino acids, 24 to 40 amino acids, 24 to 30 amino acids, or 30 to 40 amino acids in length.

The linker may be naturally occurring, synthetic, or a combination of both. Particularly suitable linker polypeptides comprise predominantly amino acid residues selected from the group consisting of glycine (Gly), serine (Ser), alanine (Ala) and threonine (Thr). For example, the linker may contain at least 75% (based on the total number of residues present in the peptide linker), such as at least 80%, at least 85% or at least 90% of the amino acid residues selected from Gly, Ser, Ala and Thr. The linker may also consist of only Gly, Ser, Ala and/or Thr residues. In some embodiments, the linker contains 1-25 glycine residues, 5-20 glycine residues, 5-15 glycine residues, or 8-12 glycine residues. In some aspects, suitable peptide linkers typically contain at least 50% glycine residues, such as at least 75% glycine residues. In some embodiments, the peptide linker comprises only glycine residues. In some embodiments, the peptide linker comprises only glycine and serine residues.

In some embodiments, these linkers consist essentially of the amino acids glycine and serine, denoted herein as GS linkers. In some embodiments, the linker comprises (GGS) n, wherein n is 1 to 10, such as 1 to 5, e.g., 1 to 3, such as GGS (GGS) n (SEQ ID NO:171), wherein n is 0 to 10. In particular embodiments, the linker comprises the sequence (GGGGS) n (SEQ ID NO:173), wherein n is 1 to 10 or n is 1 to 5, such as 1 to 3. In further embodiments, the linker comprises (GGGGGS) n (SEQ ID NO:172), wherein n is 1 to 4, such as 1 to 3. The linker may comprise a combination of any of the above, such as 2, 3, 4 or 5 repetitions of the GS, GGS, GGGGS and/or GGGGGS linker may be combined. In some embodiments, such linkers are 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, or 19 amino acids in length.

In some embodiments, the linker is (in the one-letter amino acid code): GGS, GGGGS (SEQ ID NO:149) or GGGGGS (SEQ ID NO: 135). In some embodiments, the GS linker comprises the amino acid sequence of: GGSGGS, i.e. (GGS)₂(SEQ ID NO: 10); GGSGGSGGS, i.e. (GGS) ₃(SEQ ID NO: 11); GGSGGSGGSGGS namely (GGS)₄(SEQ ID NO: 12); GGSGGSGGSGGSGGS namely (GGS)₅(SEQ ID NO: 13); GGGGGSGGGGGSGGGGGS, i.e. (G5S)₃(SEQ ID NO: 119); GGSGGGGSGGGGSGGGGS (SEQ ID NO:147) and GGGGSGGGGSGGGS (SEQ ID NO: 170). In some embodiments, the linker is GGGG (SEQ ID NO: 103). In some embodiments, the linker is GGGGG (SEQ ID NO: 250). In some of any of the above examples, the serine can be replaced with alanine (e.g., (Gly4Ala) or (Gly3 Ala)).

In some embodiments, the linker comprises a peptide having the amino acid sequence Gly_xXaa-Gly_y-Xaa-Gly_z(SEQ ID NO:174), wherein each Xaa is independently selected from alanine (Ala), valine (Val)(Val), leucine (Leu), isoleucine (Ile), methionine (Met), phenylalanine (Phe), tryptophan (Trp), proline (Pro), glycine (Gly), serine (Ser), threonine (Thr), cysteine (Cys), tyrosine (Tyr), asparagine (Asn), glutamine (Gln), lysine (Lys), arginine (Arg), histidine (His), aspartic acid (Asp) and glutamic acid (Glu), and wherein x, y and z are each integers ranging from 1 to 5. In some embodiments, each Xaa is independently selected from Ser, Ala, and Thr. In a specific variation, each of x, y, and z is equal to 3 (thereby producing a peptide linker having the amino acid sequence Gly-Gly-Gly-Xaa-Gly-Gly-Gly-Xaa-Gly-Gly-Gly (SEQ ID NO:175), wherein each Xaa is selected as described above.

In some embodiments, the linker is a serine-rich linker based on a repeat of the (SSSSG) n (SEQ ID NO:185) motif, where n is at least 1, but n can be 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9.

In some cases, it may be desirable to provide some rigidity into the peptide linker. This may be accomplished by including a proline residue in the amino acid sequence of the peptide linker. Thus, in some embodiments, the linker comprises at least one proline residue in the amino acid sequence of the peptide linker. For example, a peptide linker can have an amino acid sequence in which at least 25% (e.g., at least 50% or at least 75%) of the amino acid residues are proline residues. In a particular embodiment, the peptide linker comprises only proline residues.

In some aspects, the peptide linker comprises at least one cysteine residue, such as one cysteine residue. For example, in some embodiments, the linker comprises at least one cysteine residue and an amino acid residue selected from Gly, Ser, Ala, and Thr. In some such embodiments, the linker comprises a glycine residue and a cysteine residue, such as only a glycine residue and a cysteine residue. Typically, each peptide linker will contain only one cysteine residue. An example of a specific linker comprising cysteine residues comprises a linker having the amino acid sequence Gly _m-Cys-Gly_nWherein n and m are each 1-12, e.g. 3-9, 4-8 or 4-7An integer number. In a specific variant, this peptide linker has the amino acid sequence GGGGG-C-GGGGG (SEQ ID NO: 177).

In some embodiments, the linker of the fusion protein is a structured or constrained linker. In particular embodiments, the structural linker comprises the sequence (AP) n or (EAAAK) n (SEQ ID NO:178), wherein n is 2 to 20, preferably 4 to 10, including but not limited to AS- (AP) n-GT (SEQ ID NO:179) or AS- (EAAAK) n-GT (SEQ ID NO:180), wherein n is 2 to 20, such AS 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15. In other embodiments, the linker comprises the sequence (GGGGA) n (SEQ ID NO:181), (PGGGS) n (SEQ ID NO:182), (AGGGS) n (SEQ ID NO:183), or GGS- (EGKSSGSGSESKST) n-GGS (SEQ ID NO:184), wherein n is 2 to 20. In some embodiments, the linker is SSSASASSA (SEQ ID NO:186), GSPGSPG (SEQ ID NO:187), or ATTTGSSPGPT (SEQ ID NO: 176). In some embodiments, such linkers may have advantages when injected in vivo due to their structure that may be more resistant to proteolytic degradation.

In some embodiments, the linker is not a cleavable linker, also referred to as a non-cleavable linker. In some embodiments, the linker is not cleavable by a protease. In some embodiments, a linker that is not a cleavable linker or is not cleavable by a protease is a linker that is generally stable for in vivo delivery or recombinant production. In some aspects, linkers that are not cleavable by a protease include those that do not contain at least one peptide bond preferably located within a cleavable peptide sequence or recognition site of a protease. In particular embodiments, the non-cleavable linker is not the target substrate for the protease, such that it is not preferentially or specifically cleaved by the protease compared to a linker containing the substrate recognition site of the same protease.

In some embodiments, the linker does not contain a substrate recognition site or cleavage site for a particular protease, which is a sequence that is cleaved by the protease that is recognized by the active site of the protease. Typically, for example, for serine proteases, the cleavage sequence consists of the P1-P4 and P1'-P4' amino acids in the substrate, with cleavage occurring after the P1 position. Typically, the cleavage sequence of a serine protease is six residues in length to match the extended substrate specificity of many proteases, but may be longer or shorter depending on the protease. Typically, the linker does not comprise a P1-P1' scissile bond sequence recognized by a protease. In some aspects, a non-cleavable linker or a linker that does not contain a substrate recognition site specifically recognized for cleavage by a protease is a linker whose cleavage by a protease is significantly less than the cleavage of the target substrate by the protease.

In some embodiments, the linker is a cleavable linker. In some aspects, the cleavable linker is a linker that further comprises a sequence that is a substrate for a protease, such as any of those described above, which sequence can be cleaved under physiological conditions due to the presence of at least one bond. In some cases, a cleavable linker is susceptible or susceptible to cleavage under certain conditions present in vivo, such as following exposure to extracellular proteases (including those present in the cellular environment in vivo). In some cases, the protease may be present in a particular physiological microenvironment (e.g., a tumor microenvironment), thereby limiting the sites at which cleavage may occur.

Generally, cleavage of a particular target substrate by a protease exhibits specificity or preference as compared to another, non-target substrate. This degree of specificity can be determined based on the cleavage rate constant of the sequence (e.g., linker), which is a measure of the preference of the protease for its substrate and the efficiency of the enzyme. Any method for determining the rate of increase of cleavage over time in the presence of various concentrations of substrate can be used to calculate the specificity constant. For example, the substrate is linked to a fluorescent moiety that is released upon cleavage by a protease. By determining the cleavage rate at different protease concentrations, the cleavage specificity constant (k) for a particular linker for a particular protease can be determined_cat/K_m). In some embodiments, the cleavable linker is capable of being cleaved by a protease at about at least 1 × 10⁴M^-1S^-1Or at least 5X 10⁴M^-1S, at least 10X 10⁴M^-1S, at least 10X 10⁵M^- ¹Rate of S or greaterA linker that specifically cleaves.

In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide construct of the present disclosure comprises a cleavable linker that links the first component and the second component. In some embodiments, the cleavable linker comprises an amino acid sequence that can serve as a substrate for a protease (typically an extracellular protease). For example, the cleavable linker may comprise a cleavage sequence comprising at least one peptide bond preferably located within a cleavable peptide sequence of a protease. Suitable proteases include, for example, Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs), cysteine proteinases, serine proteinases, and activators of plasmin, which are formed or activated in a potentiated manner in diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis or cancer, resulting in excessive tissue degradation, inflammation, and metastasis. In particular embodiments, the protease is a protease produced by a tumor, activated immune effector cells (e.g., T cells or NK cells), or cells in the tumor microenvironment. In some embodiments, the protease is granzyme B, matriptase, or MMP (e.g., MMP-2).

The cleavable linker may be selected based on proteases produced by a tumor in proximity to a cell expressing the target and/or by a tumor co-localized with the desired target of the multispecific polypeptide construct in a tissue. Increased levels of proteases with known substrates have been reported in the literature in many cancers (e.g., solid tumors). See, e.g., La Rocca et al, (2004) British J.of Cancer 90(7) 1414-.

In some embodiments, the cleavable linker connecting the first component multispecific polypeptide construct and the second component multispecific polypeptide construct is cleaved by a protease produced by an immune effector cell activated by one of the components. For example, a multispecific polypeptide construct comprising an effector-enabled or enhanced IgG Fc region is capable of eliciting ADCC when conjugated to a target antigen. Central to ADCC is the release of granzyme B and perforin from effector cells (i.e. NK cells and cytotoxic T cells). Upon release, granzyme B enters the target cell in a perforin-dependent manner, where it mediates apoptosis. Importantly, granzyme B is active in extracellular contacts between effector cells and target cells. In some embodiments, the cleavable linker joining the first component multispecific polypeptide construct and the second component multispecific polypeptide construct is cleaved by granzyme B. Granzyme B is released during effector cell activation mediated by one of the components of the multispecific polypeptide construct. In some embodiments, granzyme B and other proteases may be produced by immune effector cells (including activated T cells or NK cells). In some embodiments, activation of T cells by CD3 engagement upon binding of the multispecific polypeptide construct to TAA may release such proteases, which may then cleave the specifically cleavable linker, thereby potentiating or increasing the activity of the CD3 binding molecule to engage CD 3. In some embodiments, cleavage may amplify or increase the activity achieved by the multispecific construct when bound to a TAA in an uncleaved state.

Exemplary substrates include, but are not limited to, substrates that can be cleaved by one or more of the following enzymes or proteases: ADAMS, ADAMTS, such as ADAM 8; ADAM 9; ADAM 10; ADAM 12; ADAM 15; ADAM 17/TACE; ADAMDEC 1; ADAMTS 1; ADAMTS 4; ADAMTS 5; aspartic proteases, such as BACE or renin; aspartic cathepsins, such as cathepsin D or cathepsin E; a caspase, such as caspase 1, caspase 2, caspase 3, caspase 4, caspase 5, caspase 6, caspase 7, caspase 8, caspase 9, caspase 10 or caspase 14; cysteine cathepsins, such as cathepsin B, cathepsin C, cathepsin K, cathepsin L, cathepsin S, cathepsin V/L2, cathepsin X/Z/P; cysteine proteases, such as kruenzain (Cruzipain); legumain (Legumain); otubain-2; KLK, such as KLK4, KLK5, KLK6, KLK7, KLK8, KLK10, KLK11, KLK13, or KLK 14; metalloproteinases, such as membrane-penetrating peptidases; enkephalinase; PSMA; BMP-1; MMPs, such as MMP1, MMP2, MMP3, MMP7, MMP8, MMP9, MMP10, MMP11, MMP12, MMP13, MMP14, MMP15, MMP16, MMP17, MMP19, MMP20, MMP23, MMP24, MMP26, or MMP 27; serine proteases, such as activin C, cathepsin a, cathepsin G, chymotrypsin, coagulation factor proteases (e.g. FVIIa, FIXa, FXa, FXIa, FXIIa), elastase, granzyme B, Guanidinobenzoatase (Guanidinobenzoatase), HtrA1, human neutrophil elastase, lactoferrin, Marapsin, NS3/4A, PACE4, plasmin, PSA, tPA, thrombin, tryptase, uPA; a type II transmembrane serine protease (TTSP), such as DESC1, DPP-4, FAP, heparin, matriptase-2, matriptase, TMPRSS2, TMPRSS3, or TMPRSS 4; and any combination thereof.

In some embodiments, the cleavable linker is cleaved by a plurality of proteases (e.g., 2 or more proteases, 3 or more proteases, 4 or more proteases, etc.).

In some embodiments, the cleavable linker is selected for use with a particular protease, e.g., a protease known to be produced by a tumor proximal to a cell expressing the target and/or produced by a tumor co-localized with the target of the multispecific polypeptide construct.

In some embodiments, the cleavable linker contains a substrate recognition site or cleavage site for a particular protease, which is a sequence that is cleaved by the protease that is recognized by the active site of the protease. Typically, for example, for serine proteases, the cleavage sequence consists of the P1-P4 and P1'-P4' amino acids in the substrate, with cleavage occurring after the P1 position. Typically, the cleavage sequence of a serine protease is six residues in length to match the extended substrate specificity of many proteases, but may be longer or shorter depending on the protease. Typically, the cleavable linker comprises a P1-P1' scissile bond sequence recognized by a protease. In some aspects, the cleavable linker is engineered to introduce a peptide bond capable of being cleaved by a particular protease, for example, by introducing a substrate recognition site sequence or cleavage sequence for the protease.

In some embodiments, the cleavable linker comprises a combination of two or more substrate sequences. In some embodiments, each substrate sequence is cleaved by the same protease.

In some embodiments, the first antigen-binding domain and the second antigen-binding domain specific for a TAA are different. In some embodiments, the first antigen-binding domain and the second antigen-binding domain bind different TAAs. In some embodiments, the first antigen-binding domain and the second antigen-binding domain bind different or non-overlapping epitopes of the same TAA and/or compete for binding to the same TAA.

Exemplary forms of multispecific polypeptide constructs containing IRBRs are shown in fig. 18A and 18B.

Pharmaceutical composition

Provided herein are compositions of any of the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs. It will be appreciated that administration of a therapeutic entity according to the present disclosure will be administered with suitable carriers, excipients, and other agents incorporated into formulations to provide improved transfer, delivery, tolerance, and the like. Many suitable formulations can be found in formulations known to all medicinal chemists: remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences (15 th edition, Mack Publishing Company, Iston, Pa. (1975)), particularly Chapter 87 of Blaug, Seymour, among others. These formulations include, for example, powders, pastes, ointments, gels, waxes, oils, lipids, vesicles containing lipids (cationic or anionic), such as Lipofectin^TM) DNA conjugates, anhydrous absorbent creams, oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions, emulsion carbopol wax (carbowax) (polyethylene glycols with different molecular weights), semi-solid gels, and semi-solid mixtures containing carbopol wax. Any of the foregoing mixtures may be suitable for treatment and therapy according to the present disclosure, provided that the active ingredients in the formulation are not inactivated by formulation and the formulation is physiologically compatible and tolerable with the route of administration. For additional information relating to formulations, excipients and carriers well known to medicinal chemists, see also Baldrick p. "the need for a Pharmaceutical excipient diluent." Regul. Toxicol Pharmacol.32(2):210-8 (2000); wang W. "lysis and depletion of soluble protein pharmacy uticals, "int.j.pharm.203 (1-2):1-60 (2000); charman WN "Lipids, lipid drugs, and oral drug delivery-surface engineering receptors," J Pharm sci.89(8):967-78 (2000); powell et al, "Complex of experiments for personal relationships," PDA J Pharm Sci Technol.52:238-311(1998), and the references therein.

In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide constructs, conjugated multispecific polypeptide constructs, and compositions thereof (collectively referred to herein as one or more therapeutic agents and derivatives, fragments, analogs, and homologs thereof) may be incorporated into a pharmaceutical composition suitable for administration. Guidelines for The principles And considerations involved in preparing such compositions, as well as for The selection Of components, are provided, for example, in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, The Science And Practice Of Pharmacy, 19 th edition (edited by Alfonso r. gennaro et al) Mack pub.co., easton, pa, 1995; drug Absorption Enhancement, Concepts, Possiblities, Limitations, And Trends, Harwood Academic Publishers, Lanhan, Pa., 1994; and Peptide And Protein Drug Delivery (Advances In molecular Sciences, Vol. 4), 1991, M.Dekker, N.Y..

Such compositions typically comprise the multispecific polypeptide construct or conjugate thereof and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. When the multispecific polypeptide construct comprises a fragment of an antibody, the smallest fragment of the antibody that specifically binds to the target protein may be used. For example, based on the variable region sequences of an antibody, peptide molecules can be designed that retain the ability of the antibody to bind to a target protein sequence. Such peptides may be chemically synthesized and/or produced by recombinant DNA techniques. (see, e.g., Marasco et al, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA,90: 7889-.

As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" is intended to include any and all solvents, dispersion media, coatings, antibacterial and antifungal agents, isotonic and absorption delaying agents, and the like, compatible with pharmaceutical administration. Suitable carriers are described in the state of the art in the standard reference text Remington's latest version of Pharmaceutical Sciences, which is incorporated herein by reference. Suitable examples of such carriers or diluents include, but are not limited to, water, saline, ringer's solution, dextrose solution, and 5% human serum albumin. Liposomes and non-aqueous vehicles, such as fixed oils, can also be used. The use of such media and agents for pharmaceutically active substances is well known in the art. Except insofar as any conventional media or agent is incompatible with the active compound, its use in the compositions is contemplated.

Formulations for in vivo administration must be sterile. This can be easily achieved by filtration through sterile filtration membranes.

The pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure are formulated to be compatible with their intended route of administration. Examples of routes of administration include parenteral, e.g., intravenous, intradermal, subcutaneous, oral (e.g., inhalation), transdermal (i.e., topical), transmucosal, and rectal administration. Solutions or suspensions for parenteral, intradermal, or subcutaneous application may comprise the following components: sterile diluents such as water for injection, saline solution, fixed oils, polyethylene glycols, glycerin, propylene glycol or other synthetic solvents; antibacterial agents such as benzyl alcohol or methyl paraben; antioxidants, such as ascorbic acid or sodium bisulfite; chelating agents, such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA); buffers such as acetate, citrate or phosphate; and agents for regulating tonicity, such as sodium chloride or dextrose. The pH can be adjusted with an acid or base (e.g., hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide). The parenteral formulations may be enclosed in ampoules, disposable syringes or multiple dose vials made of glass or plastic.

Pharmaceutical compositions suitable for injectable use include sterile aqueous solutions (where water soluble) or dispersions and sterile powders for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable solutions or dispersions. For intravenous administration, suitable carriers include physiological saline, bacteriostatic water, Cremophor EL ^TM(BASF, Parsipanib, N.J.) or Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS). In all cases, the composition must be sterile and should be fluid to the extent that easy injection is possible. It must be stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage and must be preserved against the contaminating action of microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. The carrier may be a solvent or dispersion medium, which isThe medium contains, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (e.g., glycerol, propylene glycol, and liquid polyethylene glycol, and the like), and suitable mixtures thereof. Proper fluidity can be maintained, for example, by: by using a coating such as lecithin, by maintaining the desired particle size in the case of a dispersion, and by using a surfactant. Prevention of the action of microorganisms can be achieved by various antibacterial and antifungal agents (e.g., parabens, chlorobutanol, phenol, ascorbic acid, thimerosal, and the like). In many cases, it will be suitable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars, polyalcohols such as mannitol, sorbitol, sodium chloride in the composition. Prolonged absorption of the injectable compositions can be brought about by including in the composition an agent that delays absorption, for example, aluminum monostearate and gelatin.

Sterile injectable solutions can be prepared by: the active compound is incorporated in the required amount in an appropriate solvent, optionally with one or a combination of the ingredients listed above, followed by filter sterilization. Generally, dispersions are prepared by incorporating the active compound into a sterile vehicle which contains a basic dispersion medium and the required other ingredients from those enumerated above. In the case of sterile powders for the preparation of sterile injectable solutions, the methods of preparation are vacuum drying and freeze-drying which yields a powder of the active ingredient plus any additional desired ingredient from a previously sterile-filtered solution thereof. In the case of lyophilization of the composition, sterilization can be performed using this method either before or after lyophilization and reconstitution. Compositions for parenteral administration may be stored in lyophilized form or in solution form. In addition, parenteral compositions are typically placed in a container having a sterile access port, such as an intravenous bag or vial having a stopper pierceable by a hypodermic injection needle.

In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is administered to the subject by any route, including orally, transdermally, by inhalation, intravenously, intraarterially, intramuscularly, directly applied to a wound site, applied to a surgical site, intraperitoneally, by suppository, subcutaneously, intradermally, transdermally, by nebulization, intrapleurally, intraventricularly, intraarticularly, intraocularly, or intraspinally.

Oral compositions typically comprise an inert diluent or an edible carrier. They may be encapsulated in gelatin capsules or compressed into tablets. For the purpose of oral therapeutic administration, the active compounds can be incorporated with excipients and used in the form of tablets, lozenges or capsules. Oral compositions may also be prepared for use as a mouthwash using a fluid carrier in which the compound is applied orally and swished and expectorated or swallowed. Pharmaceutically compatible binding agents and/or adjuvant materials may be included as part of the composition. Tablets, pills, capsules, lozenges, and the like may contain any of the following ingredients or compounds with similar properties: binders, such as microcrystalline cellulose, tragacanth or gelatin; excipients, such as starch or lactose; disintegrating agents, such as alginic acid, Primogel or corn starch; lubricants, such as magnesium stearate or Sterotes; glidants, such as colloidal silicon dioxide; sweetening agents, such as sucrose or saccharin; or a flavoring agent such as peppermint, methyl salicylate, or orange flavoring.

For administration by inhalation, the multispecific polypeptide construct is delivered in the form of an aerosol spray from a pressurized container or dispenser containing a suitable propellant, e.g., a gas such as carbon dioxide, or a nebulizer.

Systemic administration can also be by transmucosal or transdermal means. For transmucosal or transdermal administration, penetrants appropriate to the barrier to be permeated are used in the formulation. Such penetrants are generally known in the art, and include, for example, for transmucosal administration, detergents, bile salts, and fusidic acid derivatives. Transmucosal administration can be accomplished through the use of nasal sprays or suppositories. For transdermal administration, the active compounds are formulated into ointments, salves, gels, or creams as generally known in the art.

The compounds may also be prepared for rectal delivery in the form of suppositories (e.g., with conventional suppository bases such as cocoa butter and other glycerides) or retention enemas.

In one embodiment, the therapeutic agent is prepared with a carrier that protects the compound from rapid elimination from the body, such as sustained/controlled release formulations, including implants and microencapsulated delivery systems. Biodegradable biocompatible polymers such as ethylene vinyl acetate, polyanhydrides, polyglycolic acid, collagen, polyorthoesters, and polylactic acid may be used. Methods of preparation of such formulations will be clear to those skilled in the art.

For example, the therapeutic agent may be embedded in microcapsules prepared, for example, by coacervation techniques or by interfacial polymerization (e.g., hydroxymethylcellulose or gelatin microcapsules and poly (methylmethacylate) microcapsules, respectively), in colloidal drug delivery systems (e.g., liposomes, albumin microspheres, microemulsions, nanoparticles, and nanocapsules), or in macroemulsions.

In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, such as a filler, binder, coating, preservative, lubricant, flavoring agent, sweetener, colorant, solvent, buffer, chelating agent, or stabilizer. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable fillers include cellulose, dibasic calcium phosphate, calcium carbonate, microcrystalline cellulose, sucrose, lactose, glucose, mannitol, sorbitol, maltol, pregelatinized starch, corn starch, or potato starch. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable binders include polyvinylpyrrolidone, starch, lactose, xylitol, sorbitol, maltitol, gelatin, sucrose, polyethylene glycol, methylcellulose or cellulose. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable coatings include Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), shellac, zein, or gelatin. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable disintegrants include polyvinylpyrrolidone, carboxymethyl cellulose or sodium starch glycolate. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable lubricants include polyethylene glycol, magnesium stearate, or stearic acid. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable preservatives include methyl paraben, ethyl paraben, propyl paraben, benzoic acid or sorbic acid. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable sweeteners include sucrose, saccharin, aspartame, or sorbitol. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable buffers include carbonates, citrates, gluconates, acetates, phosphates or tartrates.

Sustained release formulations can be prepared. Suitable examples of sustained-release preparations include semipermeable matrices of solid hydrophobic polymers containing the antibody, which matrices are in the form of shaped articles, e.g., films, or microcapsules. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition further comprises a pharmaceutical agent for controlled or sustained release of the product, such as injectable microspheres, bioerodible particles, polymeric compounds (polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid), beads, or liposomes. Examples of sustained release matrices include polyesters, hydrogels (e.g., poly (2-hydroxyethyl-methacrylate) or poly (vinyl alcohol)), polylactides (U.S. Pat. No. 3,773,919), copolymers of L-glutamic acid and γ -ethyl-L-glutamate, non-degradable ethylene-vinyl acetate, degradable lactic acid-glycolic acid copolymers (e.g., LUPRON DEPOT)^TM(injectable microspheres composed of lactic acid-glycolic acid copolymer and leuprolide acetate)) and poly D- (-) -3-hydroxybutyric acid. While polymers such as ethylene-vinyl acetate and lactic acid-glycolic acid are capable of releasing molecules for over 100 days, certain hydrogels release proteins for shorter periods of time.

The material is also commercially available from Alza Corporation and Nova Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Liposomal suspensions (including liposomes targeted to infected cells with monoclonal antibodies to viral antigens) can also be used as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. These can be prepared according to methods known to those skilled in the art (e.g., as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,522,811).

It is particularly advantageous to formulate oral or parenteral compositions in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. Dosage unit form as used herein refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages for the subject to be treated; each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active compound calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical carrier. The specifications for the dosage unit forms of the present disclosure are dependent upon and directly depend upon the unique characteristics of the active compound and the particular therapeutic effect to be achieved, as well as limitations inherent in the art of compounding such active compounds for the treatment of individuals.

Further provided are kits comprising a pharmaceutical composition (or article of manufacture) described herein. The pharmaceutical composition may be contained in a container, package or dispenser together with instructions for administration. The kits described herein may also contain other materials as desired from a commercial and user standpoint, including other buffers, diluents, filters, needles, syringes, and package inserts with instructions for performing any of the methods described herein.

The formulations may also contain more than one multispecific polypeptide construct necessary for the particular indication being treated, such as those having complementary activities that do not adversely affect each other. In some embodiments, or in addition, the composition may comprise an agent that enhances its function, such as, for example, a cytotoxic agent, a cytokine, a chemotherapeutic agent, or a growth inhibitory agent. Such molecules are suitably present in combination in an amount effective for the intended purpose.

In some embodiments, the dosage of the pharmaceutical composition is a single dose or a repeat dose. In some embodiments, the dose is administered to the subject once a day, twice a day, three times a day, or four or more times a day. In some embodiments, about 1 or more (such as about 2 or more, about 3 or more, about 4 or more, about 5 or more, about 6 or more, or about 7 or more) doses are administered within one week. In some embodiments, multiple doses are administered over the course of days, weeks, months, or years. In some embodiments, the course of treatment is about 1 or more doses (such as about 2 or more doses, about 3 or more doses, about 4 or more doses, about 5 or more doses, about 7 or more doses, about 10 or more doses, about 15 or more doses, about 25 or more doses, about 40 or more doses, about 50 or more doses, or about 100 or more doses).

In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is administered to a subject. Typically, the dosage and route of administration of the pharmaceutical composition is determined according to the size and condition of the subject, according to standard pharmaceutical practice. For example, a therapeutically effective dose can be estimated initially in a cell culture assay or in an animal model (e.g., mouse, rat, rabbit, dog, pig, or monkey). The animal model may also be used to determine the appropriate concentration range and route of administration. Such information can then be used to determine the dosage and route of administration available in a human. The exact dosage will be determined by factors associated with the subject in need of treatment. The dosage and administration are adjusted to provide a sufficient level of the active compound or to maintain the desired effect. Factors that may be considered include the severity of the disease state, the general health of the subject, the age, weight and sex of the subject, the time and frequency of administration, the combination of one or more drugs, the sensitivity of the response, and the response to therapy. One skilled in the medical arts can readily determine the optimal dosage and treatment regimen for a particular patient by monitoring the patient for signs of disease and adjusting the treatment accordingly.

Methods of use and therapeutic administration

Also provided are methods of using the multispecific polypeptide constructs and uses thereof. Such methods and uses include therapeutic methods and uses, e.g., involving administering the molecule or a composition containing the molecule to a subject having a disease, condition, or disorder, such as a tumor or cancer. In some embodiments, the molecule and/or the composition is administered in an amount effective to achieve treatment of the disease or disorder. Uses include the use of the multispecific polypeptide constructs in such methods and treatments, and in the manufacture of medicaments to perform such therapeutic methods. In some embodiments, the method is performed by administering the multispecific polypeptide construct or a composition comprising the multispecific polypeptide construct to a subject having or suspected of having the disease or disorder. In some embodiments, the method thereby treats a disease or condition or disorder in the subject.

In one embodiment, the multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure may be used as a therapeutic agent. Such agents will typically be used to diagnose, prognose, monitor, treat, ameliorate, and/or prevent a disease or condition in a subject. The treatment regimen is performed by identifying a subject (e.g., a human patient or other mammal) having (or at risk of) the disorder using standard methods. Administering a multispecific polypeptide construct to the subject. The subject is administered a multispecific polypeptide construct, and will typically have an effect due to its binding to one or more targets.

In some embodiments, provided herein are methods of modulating an immune response in a subject by administering a therapeutically effective amount of any provided multispecific conjugate or pharmaceutical composition. In some embodiments, the method of modulating an immune response increases or enhances an immune response in a subject. For example, the increased or enhanced response may be an increase in cell-mediated immunity. In some examples, the methods increase T cell activity, such as cytolytic T Cell (CTL) activity. In some embodiments, the modulated (e.g., increased) immune response is against a tumor or cancer.

Administration of the multispecific polypeptide construct may activate innate immune cells via engagement of Fc γ rs by the Fc region of the multispecific polypeptide construct. Administration of the multispecific polypeptide construct may agonize, stimulate, activate, and/or augment innate immune cell effector functions including ADCC, cytokine release, degranulation, and/or ADCP. Once the one or more linkers connecting the first and second components are cleaved by the protease, thereby allowing the anti-CD 3 binding moiety to bind to CD3 epsilon on T cells, administration of the multispecific polypeptide construct may activate the T cells. Administration of the multispecific polypeptide construct may agonize, stimulate, activate and/or augment CD 3-mediated T cell activation, cytotoxicity, cytokine release and/or proliferation.

In some embodiments, the provided methods are used to treat a disease or disorder in a subject by administering a therapeutically effective amount of any provided multispecific conjugate or pharmaceutical composition. In some embodiments, the disease or disorder is a tumor or cancer. Generally, alleviating or treating a disease or disorder involves alleviating one or more symptoms or medical problems associated with the disease or disorder. For example, in the case of cancer, a therapeutically effective amount of the drug may achieve one or a combination of the following: reducing the number of cancer cells; reducing tumor size; inhibit (i.e., reduce and/or stop to some extent) infiltration of cancer cells into peripheral organs; inhibiting tumor metastasis; inhibit tumor growth to some extent; and/or relieve to some extent one or more symptoms associated with cancer. In some embodiments, the compositions of the disclosure can be used to prevent the onset or recurrence of a disease or disorder in a subject (e.g., a human or other mammal, such as a non-human primate, companion animal (e.g., cat, dog, horse), farm animal, work animal, or zoo animal). The terms subject and patient are used interchangeably herein.

In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition can be used to inhibit the growth of mammalian cancer cells (e.g., human cancer cells). The method of treating cancer may comprise administering to a subject having cancer an effective amount of any of the pharmaceutical compositions described herein. The pharmaceutical composition may be administered in an amount effective to inhibit, halt or reverse the progression of cancer. Human cancer cells can be treated in vivo or ex vivo. In the ex vivo treatment of a human patient, a tissue or fluid containing cancer cells is treated in vitro and the tissue or fluid is then reintroduced back into the patient. In some embodiments, the cancer of the human patient is treated in vivo by administering the therapeutic composition to the patient.

Non-limiting examples of diseases include: all types of cancer (breast, lung, colorectal, prostate, melanoma, head and neck, pancreatic, etc.), rheumatoid arthritis, crohn's disease, SLE, cardiovascular injury, ischemia, etc. For example, indications would include leukemia, including T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), lymphoblastic diseases, including multiple myeloma, and solid tumors, including lung, colorectal, prostate, pancreatic, and breast cancers, including triple negative breast cancer. For example, indications include bone disease or cancer metastasis, regardless of primary tumor origin; breast cancer, including, as non-limiting examples, ER/PR + breast cancer, Her2+ breast cancer, triple negative breast cancer; colorectal cancer; endometrial cancer; gastric cancer; glioblastoma; head and neck cancer, such as esophageal cancer; lung cancer, such as, by way of non-limiting example, non-small cell lung cancer; multiple myeloma ovarian cancer; pancreatic cancer; prostate cancer; sarcomas, such as osteosarcoma; kidney cancer, such as, by way of non-limiting example, renal cell carcinoma; and/or skin cancer, such as, by way of non-limiting example, squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, or melanoma. In some embodiments, the cancer is squamous cell carcinoma. In some embodiments, the cancer is a cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. In some embodiments, the cancer is esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. In some embodiments, the cancer is head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. In some embodiments, the cancer is lung squamous cell carcinoma.

A therapeutically effective amount of a multispecific polypeptide construct of the present disclosure generally relates to the amount required to achieve a therapeutic goal. As described above, this may be a binding interaction between the multispecific polypeptide construct and its target antigen or antigens, which in some cases agonizes, stimulates, activates and/or augments Fc γ R-mediated innate immune cell activation or CD 3-mediated T cell activation. The required amount to be administered will furthermore depend on the binding affinity of the multispecific polypeptide construct to its specific antigen or antigens, and will also depend on the rate at which the administered multispecific polypeptide construct is depleted from the free volume of the other subject to which it is administered. By way of non-limiting example, a typical range of therapeutically effective dosages of the multispecific polypeptide construct may be from about 0.01 μ g/kg body weight to about 10mg/kg body weight. In some embodiments, as a non-limiting example, a therapeutically effective dose of a multispecific polypeptide construct of the disclosure may be from about 0.01mg/kg body weight to about 5-10mg/kg body weight. Common dosing frequencies may range, for example, from twice daily to once weekly.

The effectiveness of the treatment is determined in conjunction with any known method for diagnosing or treating a particular disorder. Methods for screening for multispecific polypeptide constructs having the desired specificity include, but are not limited to, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) and other immune-mediated techniques known in the art. Various means are known for determining whether administration of the provided multispecific polypeptide construct adequately modulates the immunological activity by: eliminating, sequestering or inactivating immune cells that mediate or are capable of mediating an undesired immune response; inducing, generating or turning on immune cells that mediate or are capable of mediating a protective immune response; altering a physical or functional property of an immune cell; or a combination of these effects. Examples of measurements of modulation of immune activity include, but are not limited to, examining the presence or absence of immune cell populations (using flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, histology, electron microscopy, Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)); measuring the functional capacity of the immune cell, including the ability to proliferate or divide in response to a signal or to resist proliferation or division in response to a signal (e.g., using a T cell proliferation assay based on 3H-thymidine incorporation and a peptide scan assay following stimulation with an anti-CD 3 antibody, an anti-T cell receptor antibody, an anti-CD 28 antibody, a calcium ionophore, PMA (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) antigen presenting cells loaded with a peptide or protein antigen; a B cell proliferation assay); measuring the ability to kill or lyse other cells (e.g., cytotoxic T cell assay); measuring cytokines, chemokines, cell surface molecules, antibodies, and other products of the cell (e.g., by flow cytometry, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, western blot analysis, protein microarray analysis, immunoprecipitation analysis); measuring biochemical markers of activation of immune cells or signaling pathways within immune cells (e.g., western blot and immunoprecipitation assays for tyrosine, serine, or threonine phosphorylation, polypeptide cleavage, and formation or dissociation of protein complexes; protein array assays; DNA transcription, assays using DNA arrays, or subtractive hybridization); measuring cell death by apoptosis, necrosis or other mechanisms (e.g., annexin V staining, TUNEL assay, gel electrophoresis for measuring DNA gradients, histology; fluorescent caspase assay, western blot analysis of caspase substrates); measuring genes, proteins and other molecules produced by immune cells (e.g., northern blot analysis, polymerase chain reaction, DNA microarray, protein microarray, 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis, western blot analysis, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, flow cytometry); and measuring clinical symptoms or outcomes, such as improvement in autoimmune diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, and other diseases involving self-proteins or self-polypeptides (clinical score, requirement for use of other therapies, functional status, imaging studies), for example by measuring recurrence rate or disease severity.

The multispecific polypeptide constructs may also be used in a variety of diagnostic and prophylactic formulations. In one embodiment, the multispecific polypeptide construct is administered to a patient at risk of suffering from one or more of the foregoing disorders. Genotypic, serological or biochemical markers may be used to determine the predisposition of a patient or organ to one or more disorders.

In another embodiment of the disclosure, the multispecific polypeptide construct is administered to a human subject diagnosed as having a clinical indication associated with one or more of the foregoing disorders. Following diagnosis, a multispecific polypeptide construct is administered to mitigate or reverse the effects of the clinical indication.

Combination therapy

In some embodiments, the multispecific polypeptide constructs, conjugated multispecific polypeptide constructs, and compositions thereof (collectively referred to herein as one or more therapeutic agents) are administered in combination with one or more additional agents or a combination of additional agents. Suitable additional agents include current drugs and/or surgical therapies for the intended application. For example, the one or more therapeutic agents may be used in combination with an additional chemotherapeutic or antineoplastic agent. For example, the one or more therapeutic agents and the additional agent are formulated into a single therapeutic composition and the one or more therapeutic agents and the additional agent are administered simultaneously. In some embodiments, the one or more therapeutic agents and the additional agent are separate from each other, e.g., each formulated as a separate therapeutic composition, and the one or more therapeutic agents and the additional agent are administered simultaneously, or at different times during a treatment regimen. For example, the one or more therapeutic agents are administered prior to administration of the additional agent, the one or more therapeutic agents are administered after administration of the additional agent, or the one or more therapeutic agents and the additional agent are administered in an alternating manner. The one or more therapeutic agents and the additional agent are administered in a single dose or multiple doses, as described herein. In some embodiments, the additional agent is coupled or otherwise attached to the one or more therapeutic agents. The selection of the appropriate additional agent is made according to the purpose of the intended application (i.e., killing, prevention of cell proliferation, hormone therapy or gene therapy). Such agents may include, but are not limited to, for example, pharmaceutical agents, toxins, toxin fragments, alkylating agents, enzymes, antibiotics, antimetabolites, antiproliferative agents, hormones, neurotransmitters, DNA, RNA, siRNA, oligonucleotides, antisense RNA, aptamers, diagnostic agents, radiopaque dyes, radioisotopes, fluorescent compounds, magnetic labels, nanoparticles, labeled compounds, lectins, compounds that alter cell membrane permeability, photochemical compounds, small molecules, liposomes, micelles, gene therapy vectors, viral vectors, and the like.

In one embodiment, the multispecific polypeptide construct is administered in a combination therapy, i.e., in combination with other agents (e.g., therapeutic agents) useful in the treatment of pathological conditions or disorders, such as autoimmune disorders and inflammatory diseases. In the present context, the term "combination" means that the agents are administered substantially simultaneously (simultaneously or sequentially). If administered sequentially, the first of the two compounds may still be detectable at an effective concentration at the treatment site at the beginning of administration of the second compound.

For example, the combination therapy can include one or more multispecific polypeptide constructs of the disclosure formulated and/or co-administered with one or more additional therapeutic agents (e.g., one or more cytokines and growth factor inhibitors, immunosuppressive agents, anti-inflammatory agents, metabolic inhibitors, enzyme inhibitors, and/or cytotoxic or cytostatic agents, as described in more detail below). Furthermore, one or more multispecific polypeptide constructs described herein may be used in combination with two or more of the therapeutic agents described herein. Such combination therapies may advantageously utilize lower doses of the administered therapeutic agents, thereby avoiding possible toxicity or complications associated with each monotherapy.

VI. examples

The following examples are included for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

Example 1: multispecific polypeptide constructs comprising restricted CD3 binding regions and costimulatory receptor binding domains Generating

Example 1 describes the generation and expression of multispecific polypeptide constructs comprising a CD3 binding region which exhibits restricted CD3 binding, a binding domain which binds to a costimulatory receptor, and one or more antigen binding domains which bind to a cell surface antigen, such as a Tumor Associated Antigen (TAA). As shown in fig. 1 and further illustrated in fig. 2A-2F and fig. 3, multispecific constructs are generated in various configurations to contain a heterodimeric Fc region of an immunoglobulin coupled to a CD3 binding region by a linker (e.g., a cleavable linker or a non-cleavable linker); one or more antigen binding domains that bind to a Tumor Associated Antigen (TAA) at the amino terminus with respect to the Fc region and/or at the carboxy terminus with respect to the CD3 binding region; and at least one Costimulatory Receptor Binding Region (CRBR) located amino-terminal to the Fc region and/or located carboxy-terminal to the CD3 binding region.

Exemplary representative constructs with different TAA antigen binding domains, costimulatory receptor binding regions, and linkers were generated. Similar constructs can be generated using other heterodimeric Fc configurations, including other knob-and-hole structural configurations, such as any of those described; other linkers, including non-cleavable linkers or other cleavable linkers, particularly polypeptide linkers comprising a substrate recognition site for a protease (e.g., granzyme B, matriptase, and/or MMP); other CD3 binding regions, including other anti-CD 3 antibodies, including dsfvs or other monovalent fragments; other TAA antigen binding fragments, such as scFv, sdAb, or Fab forms; or other co-stimulatory receptor binding regions, such as scFv, sdAb, or Fab forms.

One or two of the polypeptide chains additionally encode, in various configurations, one or more TAA antigen binding domains at the amino terminus of the Fc domain and/or at the carboxy terminus of the CD3 binding region and a costimulatory receptor binding domain at the amino terminus of the Fc domain and/or at the carboxy terminus of the CD3 binding region. The exemplary protein produced incorporates a TAA as a single domain antibody (sdAb) and a costimulatory receptor binding domain.

In exemplary constructs, the TAA antigen binding domains (e.g., sdabs) are linked at the N-terminus of one or both polypeptide chains of the Fc heterodimer (e.g., the hole and/or knob) via a peptide linker (e.g., PGGGG (SEQ ID NO:102)) and/or at the C-terminus of one or both domains of the CD3 binding region (e.g., VH and/or VL) via a peptide linker (e.g., GGGG (SEQ ID NO: 103)). Other similar peptide linkers may be employed. Any antigen binding domain that binds to TAA can be employed in the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs. The exemplary protein produced comprises an antigen binding domain that binds to one of the following tumor associated antigens: B7H3 and 5T 4. In some cases, the TAA antigen binding domains are identical. In some cases, the TAA antigen binding domains are different such that the resulting multispecific polypeptide construct exhibits specificity for at least two different TAAs, exhibits specificity for different epitopes of the same TAA or the same epitope of the same TAA.

In exemplary constructs, the co-stimulatory binding regions (e.g., sdabs) are linked at the C-terminus of the polypeptide chains of the Fc heterodimer (e.g., the hole and/or knob) by a peptide linker (e.g., gggggg (SEQ ID NO: 103)). Typically, the costimulatory binding region (e.g., sdAb) is carboxy-terminal to the CD3 binding region. Other similar peptide linkers may be employed. Any co-stimulatory binding region that binds to a co-stimulatory receptor may be employed in the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs. Exemplary proteins are produced that contain a costimulatory binding region that binds to one of the following costimulatory receptors: 41BB, OX40, GITR, ICOS, CD28 or CD 27.

Exemplary multispecific polypeptide constructs were generated containing two TAA antigen-binding domains specific to the same epitope of B7H3, and further containing an additional costimulatory receptor binding region targeting 41BB (cx3091), an additional costimulatory receptor binding region targeting OX40 (cx3723), an additional costimulatory receptor binding region targeting GITR (cx3724), an additional costimulatory receptor binding region targeting ICOS (cx3721), or an additional costimulatory receptor binding region targeting CD28 (cx3726) (fig. 2A-2F). For comparison, a multispecific polypeptide construct was generated which contained two TAA antigen-binding domains specific for the same epitope of B7H3, without CRBR (cx3095 or 3834) (fig. 2A). In contrast to cx3095, cx3834 has an opposite knob and hole configuration such that the first polypeptide chain of cx3834 depicted in fig. 2A contains an Fc hole polypeptide and the second polypeptide depicted has an Fc knob polypeptide.

Exemplary multispecific polypeptide constructs were generated containing a TAA antigen binding domain specific to 5T4 with an additional CRBR targeted to 4-1 BB. Some exemplary constructs produced contain sdabs targeting the 4-1BB co-stimulatory receptor (comprising CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 shown in SEQ ID NOs: 308, 309, and 310, respectively; e.g., shown in SEQ ID No: 215). The resulting constructs included (cx3497 and cx3499), each with a different antigen binding domain targeting 5T 4. Control constructs against cx3497 and cx3499 without CRBR were also generated, designated cx3547 and cx3546, respectively. (FIG. 3)

The CRBRs used in the exemplary multispecific polypeptide constructs are shown in table E1.

Polynucleotides were generated to encode polynucleotides designated cx3095, cx3834, cx3723, cx3724, cx3721, cx3726, and cx3091 (each targeting B7H 3); polypeptide chains of exemplary multispecific polypeptide constructs of cx3546, cx3547, cx3497, and cx3499 (each targeting 5T 4). Constructs are generated to contain cleavable or non-cleavable linkers.

Individual plasmids encoding each strand of the heterodimerically restricted CD3 binding protein were transiently transfected into mammalian cells (HEK293 or CHO) using polyethyleneimine at an equimolar ratio. The recombinant protein secreted into the supernatant was collected after 3-7 days and purified by protein a chromatography followed by preparative Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) or flow-through Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography (HIC). Heterodimeric proteins are selectively purified because mutations are designed into one chain of the heterodimeric Fc (at positions I253R or H435R), typically a hole-Fc, such that it binds to protein a. A second chromatography step by SEC (AKTA with Superdex-200 resin) or FT-HIC (AKTA with butyl/phenyl sepharose) was used to remove undesired cross-paired species containing two heterodimeric Fc, which are more hydrophobic and twice the expected molecular weight.

The method facilitates the production of heterodimeric multispecific polypeptide constructs containing a properly paired species of heterodimeric Fc and the disulfide-stabilized anti-CD 3 Fv (anti-CD 3 VH with mutation G44C as shown in SEQ ID NO:44 and VL with mutation G100C as shown in SEQ ID NO: 72). The purified heterodimer restricted CD3 binding protein is stable and does not accumulate cross-paired species when incubated at 4 ℃ or increased protein concentrations for extended periods.

Example 2: binding to cancer cells and primary T cells by flow cytometry

This example describes studies evaluating binding of exemplary constructs to T cells or cancer cells. These studies were performed in single cultures containing only T cells or only cancer cells isolated from each other.

Exemplary multispecific polypeptide constructs of the present disclosure, referred to herein as cx3091 and cx3095 (with and without costimulatory receptor binding regions, respectively), were evaluated for binding to CD3 on the surface of primary T cells and to cells expressing B7H3 (a 375). As described in example 1, cx3091 and cx3095 contain the B7H3 binding domain as single domain antibodies. In addition, cx3091 contains the 41BB binding domain as a single domain antibody. The tumor antigen binding domain of the tested constructs bound B7H3 that was not expressed on primary T cells. For comparison purposes, DART-Fc forms were generated using a similar method incorporating polypeptide sequences as shown in SEQ ID NO 169, 145 or 146. Primary T cells were negatively enriched from PBMCs isolated from a healthy human donor, leukopak. Bound constructs were detected with fluorophore conjugated secondary antibodies specific for either human and binding was measured by flow cytometry. Cells incubated with secondary antibody alone served as negative controls.

For the studies, 48pM to 200nM titrations of either construct cx3091, cx3095 or B7H3xCD3DART-Fc were used. A representative restricted CD3 engagement construct targeting B7H3 was found to bind to cells expressing B7H3 (a375) (fig. 4A and 4B), but lacked the ability to bind to T cells (fig. 4C and 4D). Notably, it was observed that only the DART-Fc form allowed binding of T cells in the absence of B7H3 engagement. Importantly, it was observed that the addition of the 41BB binding domain did not mediate T cell binding, consistent with the requirement for T cell activation for 41BB expression.

In further studies, similar restricted binding was observed for representative restricted CD3 conjugate constructs targeting 5T4, produced essentially as described in example 1; cx3497 incorporated an additional 41BB binding domain, whereas cx3547 did not incorporate a costimulatory receptor binding region. Single domain antibodies were incorporated as the 5T4 binding domain of both constructs as well as the 41BB binding domain of cx 3497. As shown in fig. 5A and 5B, both constructs showed binding to Ovcar-5, a cell expressing 5T 4. However, the constructs were unable to bind to isolated T cells (fig. 5C and 5D).

Example 3: assessment of co-stimulatory receptor signaling using reporter assays

This example describes the assessment of the ability of various constructs to activate 41BB or OX40 reporter Jurkat cell lines in co-culture with target antigen expressing cells. Antigen-targeting restricted CD3 engagement constructs were titrated onto co-cultures of target cells and engineered Jurkat cells expressing cell surface 41BB or OX40 and NF κ B-driven luciferase. Engagement of 41BB or OX40 results in NF κ B signaling and luciferase production. For reporter assays with adherent target cells, target cells were seeded, allowed to settle at room temperature for uniform distribution, and incubated at 37 ℃ for several hours to allow adherence prior to addition of reporter cells and restricted CD3 conjugate constructs targeting the antigen. After incubating the reporter cells, target cells (antigen positive or negative cells) and restricted CD3 conjugate construct for 6 hours, BioGlo reagent (Promega) was added and luminescence was measured on SpectraMaxL.

In this exemplary assay, the multispecific constructs tested comprised either a B7H3 targetlimited CD3 and 41BB binding co-stimulatory receptor binding region (cx3091) or an OX40 binding region (cx 3723). As a control, the corresponding B7H3 targetedly restricted CD3 constructs (cx3095 or cx3834) without the co-stimulatory receptor binding region were also tested. The target cells were a375 cells expressing B7H3 (a375) or a375(Δ) B7H3) knocked down (deleted) for B7H 3.

As shown in fig. 6A, the exemplary B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct (cx3091) containing a 41BB binding domain was shown to mediate target antigen specific 41BB agonism as indicated by an increase in reporter signal compared to co-cultures incubated in the presence of the corresponding construct (cx3095) without co-stimulatory binding regions. Similarly, 41BB agonism was not observed in T cells co-cultured with target cells that do not express the B7H3 target antigen, consistent with the observation that B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 constructs with co-stimulatory binding regions exhibit the ability to mediate T cell co-stimulatory signaling only in a target antigen-dependent manner.

As shown in fig. 6B and 6C, similar results were observed for the B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 conjugation construct (cx3723) containing the OX40 binding domain. Notably, the B7H3 targeted restricted CD3 conjugate construct containing the OX40 binding domain did not enhance NF κ B signaling in 41BB expressing reporter cells (fig. 6C), while the B7H3 targeted restricted CD3 conjugate construct containing the 41BB binding domain did not enhance NF κ B signaling in OX40 expressing reporter cells (fig. 6B) above the level observed for the B7H3 targeted restricted CD3 conjugate construct lacking the costimulatory binding domain.

These results demonstrate the additional functional properties of antigen-targeting restricted CD3 engagement constructs incorporating co-stimulatory receptor binding regions to mediate antigen-dependent specific co-stimulatory signaling.

Example 4: assessment of CD3 reporter T cell activation Using reporter assays

This example describes the assessment of the ability of various constructs to activate the CD3 NFAT reporter Jurkat cell line in co-culture with target antigen expressing cells. Antigen-targeting restricted CD3 engagement constructs were titrated onto co-cultures of target cells (B7H 3 or knocked-down against B7H3, B7H3-/-) and engineered Jurkat cells expressing NFAT-driven Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP). Conjugation of CD3 resulted in NFAT signaling and green fluorescence generation. For reporter assays with adherent target cells, target cells were seeded, allowed to settle at room temperature for uniform distribution, and incubated at 37 ℃ for several hours to allow adherence prior to addition of reporter cells and restricted CD3 conjugate constructs targeting the antigen. The assay plates were continuously imaged using the IncuCyte ZOOM system and CD3 reporter cell activation was determined by measuring the integrated intensity of the total green object.

In this exemplary assay, the multispecific constructs tested comprised a B7H3 targetlimited CD3 and 41BB binding costimulatory receptor binding region (cx 3091). As a control, the corresponding B7H3 targeting restricted CD3(cx3095) without co-stimulatory receptor binding regions was also tested. The target cells were a375 cells (a375) expressing B7H 3.

As shown in fig. 7A, the exemplary B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct exhibited the ability to mediate target antigen specific T cell activation when incubated in reporter T cell co-cultures in the presence of target cells expressing B7H 3. However, no reporter activity was observed in co-cultures that did not contain the B7H3 target cells (fig. 7B). Similarly, T cell activation of exemplary DART-Fc (which also binds to B7H 3) was also observed in the presence of antigen-expressing a375 cells instead of B7H3 negative cells, as measured by reporter activity. Notably, construct cx3091 with 41BB showed enhanced NFAT signaling compared to the construct without CRBR, probably due to increased viability and/or decreased depletion of Jurkat cells following TCR/CD3 signaling.

These results demonstrate that while T cell binding via the CD3 binding domain is limited or inhibited on isolated T cells (as shown in example 2), the multispecific polypeptides provided herein are capable of engaging T cell binding and mediating T cell activation once they bind to a cognate antigen.

Example 5: evaluation of functional Activity

This example describes the evaluation and characterization of the restricted CD3 engagement constructs tested in an in vitro assay for human primary T cells.

1.T cell mediated cytotoxicity

Target cells were fluorescently labeled with CytoID red. For cytotoxicity assays with adherent target cells, target cells were seeded, allowed to settle at room temperature for uniform distribution, and incubated at 37 ℃ for several hours to allow adherence prior to addition of other assay components. Primary T cells were negatively enriched from PBMCs isolated from healthy human donors leukopak and added at a ratio of 10:1-40:1T cells to target cells. Green caspase-3/7 reagent was added, which fluorescently labeled the nuclear DNA of cells undergoing apoptosis. Antibodies were titrated onto the co-cultures and assay plates were continuously imaged using the IncuCyte ZOOM system. Target cell death was determined by measuring the total red/green overlapping object area (as shown in figures 8A, 8B, 9A-9E, 10A, 10B). Herein, the target cells were labeled red with CytoID red while apoptosis was monitored with green fluorescent caspase-3/7 substrate, and thus apoptotic target cells were those double-labeled red and green. Target cell depletion was determined by measuring the total red objects remaining at the end of the assay, as shown in fig. 8C and 8D.

In the exemplary assay shown in fig. 8A-8D, a multispecific construct (cx3091) containing a B7H3 targetlimited CD3 and 41BB binding costimulatory receptor binding region was tested. As controls, corresponding B7H3 targeting restricted CD3(cx3095) without co-stimulatory receptor binding regions or DART-Fc which also binds to B7H3 was also tested. The target cells were a375 expressing B7H3 or a549 cells knocked down for B7H 3. The exemplary B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct cx3095 induced potent T cell-mediated cytotoxicity of antigen positive cell lines (fig. 8A and 8C), but not of antigen negative cell lines (fig. 8B and 8D), consistent with the ability to efficiently induce antigen-dependent T cell activation. Control constructs cx3095 and DART-Fc, which did not contain a co-stimulatory binding region, also exhibited cytotoxic activity, but at levels lower than that observed for cx3091, particularly at the lowest concentrations tested. cx3095 shows similar potency to the alternative form DART-Fc B7H3xCD3 (which also lacks the 41BB binding domain).

In a similar assay, similar results were observed with other B7H 3-targeted restricted multispecific polypeptide constructs incorporating co-stimulatory binding regions that bind other co-stimulatory receptors. Multispecific polypeptide constructs incorporating co-stimulatory receptor binding regions targeting OX40(cx 3723; fig. 9A), 41BB (cx 3091; fig. 9B), GITR (cx 3724; fig. 9C), ICOS (cx 3721; fig. 9D) or CD28(cx 3726; fig. 9E) each allow for superior T cell-mediated cytotoxicity of B7H3 positive cells a375 compared to a similar construct (cx3834) lacking the co-stimulatory receptor binding region.

Similar assays were performed with a 5T4 targeting restricted CD3 construct (cx3497) with a 41 BB-binding co-stimulatory receptor binding region. As a control, the corresponding 5T 4-targeted restricted CD3(cx3547) without co-stimulatory receptor binding regions was also tested. The target cells are Ovcar-5 cells expressing 5T4 or CCRF-CEM cells expressing substantially no 5T 4. As shown in fig. 10A-10B, the representative 5T 4-targeted restricted CD3 conjugating construct cx3547 lacks the ability to mediate antigen-specific cytotoxicity, while the addition of the 41BB binding domain induces specific T-cell cytotoxicity against the 5T 4-expressing cell line Ovcar-5, but not against the 5T 4-negative cell line CCRF-CEM. Notably, T cell mediated cytotoxicity mediated by cx3497 was not observed until approximately 40 hours, consistent with the kinetics of 41BB upregulation after TCR signaling.

These results show that the addition of a costimulatory receptor binding region targeting a costimulatory receptor (e.g., 41BB) enhances the efficacy of T cell-mediated cytotoxicity over constructs lacking a costimulatory receptor binding region. These observations support that the antigen-targeted restricted CD3 forms provided herein with additional co-stimulatory receptor binding capacity exhibit improved activity compared to other CD 3-conjugated forms, including the ability to exhibit enhanced efficacy in mediating cytotoxicity without substantial binding to T cells in the absence of antigen conjugation.

2.T cell activation

To assess T cell activation, suspension cells from the above-described T cell-mediated cytotoxicity assay were collected and stained with live/dead stain and fluorophore-conjugated anti-CD 4, anti-CD 8, anti-CD 25, and/or anti-CD 71 antibodies. Cells were analyzed using a SONY SA3800 spectrometer and CD4+ or CD8+ T cell activation was determined by measuring the expression level of CD25 or CD 71. T cell activation was monitored by flow cytometry analysis of the expression level of CD71 on CD4 and CD8 populations.

To assess T cell activation, cx3091, cx3095 or DART-Fc B7H3xCD3 were incubated for 20 hours in co-cultures of T cells and target cells (B7H3 positive a375 cells or a549 cells in which B7H3 had been knocked out). T cell activation was monitored by flow cytometry analysis of the expression level of CD71 on CD4 and CD8 populations. T cell activation (as measured by induction of CD 71) was evident in CD4 (fig. 11A) and CD 8T cells (fig. 11C) that had been incubated with target cells expressing B7H3 in the presence of all the constructs tested. However, as shown, the B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct cx3091 incorporating the 41BB binding domain outperformed both the analogous construct cx3095 lacking the 41BB binding domain and DART-Fc in the degree of T cell activation observed. As shown in fig. 11B and 11D, in the absence of B7H3 antigen, no T cell activation was observed in CD4+ or CD8+ T cells, respectively, in the assay, as measured by CD71 expression.

3.T cell cytokine production

To assess cytokine production, FluoroSpot membranes were coated with IFN γ capture antibody overnight at 4 ℃. The membrane was washed with PBS and antibody titre, target cells and negatively enriched T cells from PBMCs were added. Target cell to T cell co-culture cells were seeded at a ratio of 1: 10. Assay plates were incubated at 37 ℃ for about 24h and membranes were prepared according to the manufacturer's instructions. Membranes were imaged using a CTL-ImmunoSpot S6 universal analyzer. Cytokine spot counts were measured using the uniform exposure time and intensity settings between assay wells.

In an exemplary assay, the multispecific constructs tested comprised a B7H3 targetlimited CD3 and 41BB binding costimulatory receptor binding region (cx 3091). As a control, the corresponding B7H3 targeting restricted CD3(cx3095) without co-stimulatory receptor binding regions was also tested. The target cells were A375 expressing B7H3 or CCRF-CEM cells not expressing B7H 3. The antigen-targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct elicited cytokine production from T cells in a B7H 3-dependent manner, as shown by production of IFN- γ only in co-cultures containing target cells expressing B7H3 (fig. 12A) but not in co-cultures with B7H3 negative (B7H3-) target cells (fig. 12B). The extent of cytokine production was significantly higher in the presence of the cx3091 construct containing the 41BB binding domain, consistent with the ability of the incorporation of the 41BB binding domain to enhance specific T cell activation.

4.T cell cytokine production (ELISA)

Supernatants from T cell mediated cytotoxicity assays (performed with the 5T 4-targeted restricted CD3 construct described in section 1 above) were analyzed for IFN γ content by sandwich ELISA (BioLegend, usa). In addition, construct cx3499 containing the 41BB binding domain and construct cx3546 not containing the 41BB binding domain were also evaluated in the assay (see, e.g., example 1 and fig. 3). Following the manufacturer's instructions, and generating a standard curve interpolated for cytokine concentration values of supernatant samples. Samples with absorbance values below the lower detection limit were assigned a cytokine concentration equal to half the lowest standard concentration.

Figure 13 shows that when 41BB binding domains were incorporated into the constructs (cx3499 and cx3497), a representative 5T 4-targeted restricted CD 3-engaging construct was observed to elicit enhanced production of IFN γ from T cells in an antigen-dependent manner, but was not observed in similar constructs (cx3546 and cx3547) that did not contain 41BB binding domains.

NF κ B-luciferase reporter

The ability of a constrained CD3 engagement construct containing a costimulatory receptor binding domain to mediate specific agonism of the corresponding costimulatory signaling pathway was also assessed. Exemplary B7H 3-targeting restricted CD3 engagement constructs that do not contain a costimulatory receptor binding domain (cx3834), contain an OX40 binding domain (cx3723), or contain a 41BB binding domain (cx3091) were tested using Jurkat OX40 (fig. 14A) or 41BB (fig. 14B) nfkb-luciferase reporter cells. As shown in fig. 14A and 14B, cx3723 and cx3091 incorporating OX40 or 41BB binding domains, respectively, were found to induce specific agonism of the targeted co-stimulatory receptors. Some induced nfkb signaling was observed with all constructs (including those that did not contain a costimulatory receptor binding region), indicating that target-dependent CD3 signaling mediates some nfkb signaling in this system. B7H3 positive cell line a375 was used.

Example 6: production of PD-1 sdabs

Single domain antibodies targeting human PD-1 were generated via immunization of llama and alpaca. Llamas and alpacas were immunized with a recombinant version of the extracellular domain of human PD-1 (ECD; amino acids 25-167 of human PD-1 as shown in SEQ ID NO:242, e.g., UniProt number Q15116) as shown below: LDSPDRPWNPPTFSPALLVVTEGDNATFTCSFSNTSESFVLNWYRMSPSNQTDKLAAFPEDRSQPGQDCRFRVTQLPNGRDFHMSVVRARRNDSGTYLCGAISLAPKAQIKESLRAELRVTERRAEVPTAHPSPSPRSAGQFQ (residues 25-167 of SEQ ID NO: 242)

After generating specific anti-PD 1 antibody titers, llama/alpaca Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) were isolated from 500mL of blood from immunized animals and total mRNA was isolated using Qiagen RNeasy Maxi kit and subsequently converted to first strand cDNA using Thermo Superscript IV reverse transcriptase and oligo dT priming. Single domain antibody (sdAb; also referred to as VHH) sequences were specifically amplified via PCR using cDNA as a template and cloned into a yeast surface display vector as an sdAb-Fc-AGA2 fusion protein. Fc is human IgG1 Fc (shown in SEQ ID NO: 1).

Yeast libraries displaying these sdabs were enriched with the recombinant form of PD-1ECD via magnetic bead isolation followed by Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting (FACS). The sorted yeasts were plated and isolated colonies were picked into 96-well blocks and grown in media that switched the expression of surface-displayed sdAb-Fc to secretion into the media. Exemplary identified sdabs are shown in table E2.

Example 7: humanization of camelid PD-1 sdabs

Exemplary camelid PD-1sdAb18H10 was humanized using human VH3-23 germline as a scaffold. Camelid residues contributing to solubility, specificity, stability and/or affinity remain unmodified. In addition, all humanized variants contained modifications of Leu11Glu (L11E) and carboxy-terminal modifications of Ser112Lys (S112K) and Ser113Pro (S113P), as these were known to prevent or reduce recognition of pre-existing ADA against sdabs (as described in US 20160207981).

Table E3 shows exemplary PD-1sdAb humanized variants.

Example 8: binding of sdabs to PD-1 expressing cells as determined by flow cytometry

The specificity and relative affinity of the purified sdAb-Fc for PD-1 expressing cells was evaluated. For transient transfection of 293 cells, freeStyle 293 cells were plated at 1X10⁶cells/mL were resuspended in fresh FreeStyle 293 expression medium. Cells were seeded into 50mL per transfection and incubated on a shaker at 37 ℃ while preparing transfection reagents. 50. mu.g of each transfection plasmid was diluted into 500. mu.L of OptiMEM. For each transfection, 150. mu.g of polyethyleneimine (PEI; 75. mu.L of a 2mg/mL solution) was added to 500. mu.L of OptiMEM in a separate tube and then mixed with DNA: OptiMEM solution 1: 1. The DNA was complexed with PEI for 15 minutes at room temperature. The DNA: PEI complexes were then added dropwise to the prepared FreeStyle 293 cell flasks and mixed by vortexing. Transfected cells were incubated overnight in a shaker at 37 ℃ to allow time for protein expression. The transfection plasmids used encoded full-length PD1 proteins of lemon yellow-labelled human (hu), cynomolgus monkey (cy) and murine (mu) origin.

Binding of the exemplary PD-1-sdAb-Fc fusion proteins described in examples 6 and 7 was assessed by flow cytometry using transiently transfected PD-1 expressing cells. Untransfected FreeStyle 293 cells (UT 293) or transiently transfected FreeStyle 293 cells (hupD1-FL 293, cyPD1-FL 293 or muPD1-FL 293) were diluted to 0.5X10X10 in FACS buffer (1 × TBS, 0.01% FBS, 0.002% sodium azide)⁶Individual cells/mL and plated at 100 μ L/well in 96-well round bottom assay plates. The assay plate was centrifuged at about 750rpm for 5 minutes, then the supernatant was removed and primary anti-dilution was added as follows. Three-fold 9-point serial dilutions of 18H10 or hz18H10v7 in FACS buffer were prepared ranging from 111nM to 0.0169nM and 50. mu.L/well of diluted antibody was added to the sample containing293 cells assay plates. Cells were incubated in antibody dilution for 30 minutes at 4 ℃. After incubation for 30 minutes, the assay plates were centrifuged at about 750rpm for 5 minutes, washed with 150 μ L FACS buffer, and centrifuged at about 750rpm for an additional 5 minutes. The wash was removed and 50 μ L/well of Alexa Fluor 647 conjugated donkey anti-human IgG diluted 1:1000 in FACS buffer was added and incubated for 20 min at 4 ℃. The assay plate was then centrifuged at 750rpm for 5 minutes, washed with 150 μ L FACS buffer, and centrifuged at 750rpm for an additional 5 minutes. The wash solution was removed and the cells were resuspended in 30 μ L/well FACS buffer for analysis by flow cytometry (iquee Intellicyte).

Exemplary results for binding of 18H10 (parent derived from llama; SEQ ID NO:243) or 18H10hzv7(SEQ ID NO:257) to cells expressing human PD-1 (huPD1-FL 293, FIG. 15A), cynomolgus monkey PD-1 (cynoPD1-FL 293, FIG. 15B) or mouse PD-1 (muPD1-FL 293, FIG. 15C) are shown in FIGS. 15A-15C, each cell compared to a non-expressing (UT293) cell.

Example 9: assessment of binding of PD-1sdAb to activated human T cells by flow cytometry

The binding of PD-1-sdAb-Fc fusion protein to activated human T cells was assessed by flow cytometry.

To enrich and activate human T cells, Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) were isolated from human donor blood using density gradient centrifugation. Blood samples were diluted with PBS/2% FBS (1:2) and 30mL of diluted blood was layered onto 15mL of Lymphoprep density gradient medium. After centrifugation, the PBMC layer at the interface of plasma and Lymphoprep was removed and the remaining red blood cells were lysed with red blood cell lysis buffer for 5 minutes at room temperature. The non-T cell population was labeled with biotinylated anti-lineage marker antibodies to CD14, CD16, CD19, CD20, CD36, CD56, CD123, TCR γ/δ (20 min, room temperature) and depleted using magnetic streptavidin particles. The unbound cell supernatant containing the T cell fraction was retained. By approximately 2X10 in tissue culture plates coated with 1. mu.g/mL mouse anti-human CD3(OKT3) ⁶Density of individual cells/mL of culture MediumPlates activate enriched human T cells for 3 days. Activated T cells were washed once in PBS and then further used in binding assays.

Binding was assessed and quantified by flow cytometry essentially as described in example 8, except that for binding to activated human T cells, four-fold 10-point serial dilutions of 18H10(SEQ ID NO:243) or humanized 18H10(hzv 7; SEQ ID NO:257) ranging from 167nM to 0.00847nM were used for incubation. As shown in figure 16, the exemplary constructs and humanized variants tested targeting PD-1 were found to bind to enriched and activated human T cells.

Example 10: assessment of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade Using a reporter assay

The ability of an exemplary sdAb targeting PD-1 to block the interaction of PD-1 and PD-L1 was evaluated using a Jurkat effect reporter cell line expressing PD-1 in which TCR engagement results in transcription of the luciferase reporter gene. In the assay, aAPC/CHOK1 cells expressing PD-L1 were co-cultured with Jurkat reporter cells to provide TCR-specific activation signals, while blocking this signal by engaging PD-1 on effector cells. The ability of PD-1sdAb to block repressed signals and enhance TCR engagement was monitored.

aAPC/CHOK1 cells expressing PD-L1 were plated in 100 μ L Ham's F12 supplemented with 10% FBS the day before the assay. On the day of the assay, all media was discarded and replaced with 40 μ L of assay media (RPMI 1640, supplemented with 1% FBS) containing a titration solution (initial concentration: 50nM, 1:4 titration) containing the test protein containing 18H10(SEQ ID NO:243) or humanized 18H10(hzv 7; SEQ ID NO: 257). Jurkat PD-1 reporter cells were then added to the plates (40. mu.L) and the plates were incubated for 6h (37 ℃, 5% CO2 in a humid atmosphere). After incubation, equal volumes of the BioGlo luciferase assay substrate were added to the wells and incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes, and luminescence was assessed and analyzed.

As shown in FIG. 17, blocking of PD-1/PD-L1 by the exemplary tested protein 18H10(SEQ ID NO:243) or humanized 18H10(hzv 7; SEQ ID NO:257) was observed, as indicated by TCR engagement and the presence of luciferase transcription.

Example 11: methods of generating TAA-targeted restricted CD3 binding proteins with anti-PD 1 sdabs

A multispecific polypeptide construct was generated containing a disulfide-stabilized anti-CD 3 Fv binding region that exhibits restricted CD3 binding; a heterodimeric Fc domain; one or more TAA antigen binding domains located amino-terminal with respect to the Fc region and/or carboxy-terminal with respect to the CD3 binding region; and an Inhibitory Receptor Binding Region (IRBR) comprising a single domain antibody (sdAb) to PD-1, located amino-terminal to the Fc region and/or located carboxy-terminal to the CD3 binding region. In some cases, a multispecific polypeptide construct is generated to contain at least one co-stimulatory receptor binding region (CRBR) (e.g., for 41BB) located amino-terminal to the Fc region and/or carboxy-terminal to the CD3 binding region. Multispecific constructs were generated in various configurations, as shown in fig. 18A-18B.

In exemplary constructs, polynucleotides encoding at least a first polypeptide chain and a second polypeptide chain of a heterodimeric multispecific polypeptide construct are generated and cloned into a plasmid for expression. The first polypeptide chain typically comprises, in order from N-terminus to C-terminus, an Fc hole polypeptide (e.g., as shown in SEQ ID NO:91 or in some cases SEQ ID NO: 93); a cleavable or non-cleavable linker, such as a linker comprising one or more substrate recognition sites for a protease; and the variable light chain (VL) domain of the dsFv anti-CD 3 antibody (e.g., as shown in SEQ ID NO: 241). The second polypeptide chain typically comprises, in order from N-terminus to C-terminus, an Fc pestle polypeptide (e.g., as shown in SEQ ID NO:84 or in some cases SEQ ID NO: 88); the same cleavable linker or the same non-cleavable linker as in the case of the first polypeptide chain; and the variable heavy chain domain of the dsFv anti-CD 3 antibody (e.g., as shown in SEQ ID NO: 44). Constructs were generated with either an exemplary non-cleavable linker GGGGGSGGGGGSGGGGGS (SEQ ID NO:119) or an exemplary cleavable linker GGSGGGGIEPDIGGSGGS (SEQ ID NO:105) containing the substrate recognition site for granzyme B. One or both of the polypeptide chains additionally encode in various configurations a PD-1sdAb (e.g., SEQ ID NO:243 or SEQ ID NO:257) as an inhibitory receptor binding region at the amino-terminus of the Fc domain and/or at the carboxy-terminus of the CD3 binding region and/or a 4-1BB sdAb (e.g., SEQ ID NO:215) as a co-stimulatory receptor binding domain at the amino-terminus of the Fc domain and/or at the carboxy-terminus of the CD3 binding region.

Individual plasmids encoding each strand of the heterodimerically restricted CD3 binding protein were transiently transfected into mammalian cells (HEK293 or CHO) using polyethyleneimine at an equimolar ratio. The recombinant protein secreted into the supernatant was collected after 3-7 days and the secreted recombinant protein was purified by protein a chromatography followed by preparative Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) or flow-through Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography (HIC). Heterodimeric proteins are selectively purified because mutations are designed into one chain of the heterodimeric Fc (at positions I253R or H435R), typically a hole-Fc, such that it binds to protein a. A second chromatography step by SEC (AKTA with Superdex-200 resin) or FT-HIC (AKTA with butyl/phenyl sepharose) was used to remove undesired cross-paired species containing two heterodimeric Fc, which are more hydrophobic and twice the expected molecular weight.

The method facilitates the production of heterodimeric multispecific polypeptide constructs containing a properly paired species of heterodimeric Fc and the disulfide-stabilized anti-CD 3 Fv (e.g., anti-CD 3 VH with mutation G44C as shown in SEQ ID NO:44 and VL with mutation G100C as shown in SEQ ID NO: 241). The purified heterodimer restricted CD3 binding protein is stable and does not accumulate cross-paired species when incubated at 4 ℃ or increased protein concentrations for extended periods.

Example 12: generation of constructs with restricted CD3 binding

Example 12 describes the generation and expression of multispecific polypeptide constructs containing CD3 binding regions that exhibit restricted CD3 binding. As shown in fig. 1, 19A-C, and 20, multispecific constructs are produced in various configurations to contain a heterodimeric Fc region of an immunoglobulin coupled to a CD3 binding region by a linker (e.g., a non-cleavable linker) and one or more antigen binding domains that bind to a tumor-associated antigen (TAA) at the amino terminus with respect to the Fc region of the multispecific polypeptide construct and/or at the carboxy terminus with respect to the CD3 binding region of the multispecific polypeptide construct.

A. Design and Generation of constructs

Polynucleotides encoding at least a first polypeptide chain and a second polypeptide chain of a heterodimeric multispecific polypeptide construct are generated and cloned into a plasmid for expression. The first polypeptide chain typically comprises, in order from N-terminus to C-terminus, a first Fc polypeptide (e.g., an Fc hole polypeptide); a non-cuttable joint; and the Variable Light (VL) domain of an anti-CD 3 antibody. The second polypeptide chain typically comprises, in order from N-terminus to C-terminus, a second Fc polypeptide (e.g., an Fc knob polypeptide); the same non-cleavable linker as in the case of the first polypeptide chain; and the Variable Heavy (VH) domain of an anti-CD 3 antibody. anti-CD 3 antibodies include disulfide stabilized (dsFv) antibodies (anti-CD 3 VH with mutation G44C and VL with mutation G100C) or non-disulfide stabilized Fv-containing antibodies, as shown in table E4. As shown in table E12, various exemplary Fc polypeptide pairs were used to promote heterodimerization of the polypeptide chains. One or two of the polypeptide chains additionally encode, in various configurations, one or more TAA antigen binding domains at the amino terminus of the Fc domain and/or at the carboxy terminus of the CD3 binding region. Other heterodimeric Fc configurations can be used to generate similar constructs, including other knob-and-hole structural configurations, such as any of those described; other CD3 binding regions may also be used, including other anti-CD 3 antibodies, including dsfvs or other monovalent fragments; or other TAA antigen binding fragments, such as scFv, sdAb, or Fab forms.

In the resulting construct, the non-cleavable linker comprises a linker ranging in size from 3-18 amino acids. Examples of non-cleavable linkers used in the exemplary molecules produced are GGS, GGSGGS (SEQ ID NO:10), GGSGGSGGS (SEQ ID NO:11), GGSGGSGGSGGS (SEQ ID NO:12), GGSGGSGGSGGSGGS (SEQ ID NO:13), and GGGGGSGGGGGSGGGGGS (SEQ ID NO:119, included in exemplary constructs cx5823 and cx 5952) or GGSGGGGSGGGGSGGGGS (SEQ ID NO: 147).

Any antigen binding domain that binds to TAA can be employed in the provided multispecific polypeptide constructs. Exemplary proteins produced contain an antigen binding domain that binds to B7H3(CD276) or delta-like 3(DLL 3). The antigen binding domain may comprise a single chain fragment (e.g., sdAb or scFv) or a two chain antigen binding fragment (Fab). When the TAA is provided as a single chain fragment (e.g., a sdAb or scFv), the TAA antigen-binding domains are linked N-terminally of one or both polypeptide chains of the Fc heterodimer (e.g., a hole and/or a knob) via a peptide linker (e.g., PGGGG (SEQ ID NO:102)) and/or C-terminally of one or both domains of the CD 3-binding region (e.g., VH and/or VL) via a peptide linker (e.g., GGGG (SEQ ID NO: 103)). Other similar peptide linkers may be employed. When the TAA is provided as a Fab antigen binding fragment, the construct consists of VH and CH1 directly linked to one or both Fc polypeptides without a linker, and a light chain consisting of VL and CL. These TAA-binding fabs can be located at the amino-or carboxy-terminus of the heterodimeric Fc.

Multispecific polypeptide constructs containing 1, 2, 3 or 4 TAA antigen-binding domains are generated, e.g., to provide monovalent, divalent, trivalent or tetravalent binding, respectively. In some cases, the TAA antigen binding domains are identical (monoepitopic). In some cases, the TAA antigen binding domains are different such that the resulting multispecific polypeptide construct exhibits specificity for at least two different TAAs, exhibits specificity for different epitopes of the same TAA (bi-epitopes) or the same epitope of the same TAA (mono-epitopes).

The protein produced comprises a construct of a single domain antibody (sdAb) in which the TAA antigen binding domain is constituted as an antigen binding fragment (Fab). Polynucleotides were generated to encode the polypeptide chains of the exemplary multispecific polypeptide construct containing a non-cleavable linker. These include sdAb-containing constructs designated cx3072, cx5952, cx6079, cx6080, cx6081, cx5823, cx5873, and cx5965 targeting B7H3, as depicted in fig. 19A and 19B; fab-containing constructs designated cx5067, cx6083, and cx6084 targeting B7H3, as depicted in fig. 19C; and sx 5352, cx5800, and cx5801 containing sdabs targeted to DLL3, as depicted in fig. 20. Constructs were generated in which both the VH domain and sdAb of the dsFv anti-CD 3 antibody were attached to the same side (e.g., the hole or knob side) of the Fc heterodimer (e.g., cx3072 and cx5952 as shown in fig. 19A). The constructs were engineered to have Fv with no disulfide stabilization, or disulfide bonds that stabilized the VH and VL domains of the anti-CD 3 antibody. Notably, some exemplary constructs produced additionally contain an sdAb targeting the 4-1BB co-stimulatory receptor (containing CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 shown in SEQ ID NOs: 308, 309, and 310, respectively; shown, for example, in SEQ ID No: 215) (e.g., cx5823, cx5873, cx5965, cx5352, cx5801, cx 5800). A list of exemplary restricted CD3 binding constructs with sdAb and Fab TAA domains is given in table E4 below.

B. Expression and purification of the resulting constructs

Individual plasmids encoding each strand of the heterodimerically restricted CD3 binding protein were transiently transfected into mammalian cells (HEK293 or CHO) using polyethyleneimine at an equimolar ratio. The recombinant protein secreted into the supernatant was collected after 3-14 days and purified by protein a chromatography followed by preparative Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) or flow-through Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography (HIC). In some cases, the heterodimeric protein was enriched during purification since the mutation was designed into one chain of the heterodimeric Fc (at position I253R or H435R) (e.g., in the mortar-Fc) such that it did not bind protein a and thus did not purify the homodimer of I253R or H435R. A second chromatography step by SEC (AKTA with Superdex-200 resin) or FT-HIC (AKTA with butyl/phenyl sepharose) was used to remove undesired cross-paired species containing two heterodimeric Fc, which are more hydrophobic and twice the expected molecular weight.

The methods facilitate the production of heterodimeric multispecific polypeptide constructs containing a properly paired species of heterodimeric Fc and anti-CD 3 Fv (e.g., disulfide-stabilized anti-CD 3 Fv). The purified heterodimer restricted CD3 binding protein is stable and does not accumulate cross-paired species when incubated at 4 ℃ or increased protein concentrations for extended periods.

Example 13: for CD3 restricted multispecific constructs containing single or multiple B7H3 binding targeting domains Evaluation of

The activity of constructs containing a monovalent sdAb antigen-binding domain (at the N-terminus or C-terminus) was compared to the activity of dual-binding constructs containing antigen-targeting sdabs at both the N-terminus and C-terminus. Each construct tested contained a CRBR C-terminal to the CD3 binding domain.

A. Bonding of

Binding of exemplary multispecific constructs containing antigen binding domains to B7H3 to B7H3 positive a375 tumor cells, B7H3 negative CCRF-CEM cells, or primary T cells was evaluated. As shown in figure 21A, bivalent restricted CD3 engagement constructs cx5187 and cx5823 targeting B7H3 showed higher affinity binding to B7H3 positive a375 cells compared to monovalent versions cx5873 and cx 5965. None of these constructs showed any detectable binding to B7H3 negative CCRF-CEM cells or T cells alone (fig. 21B).

B.T cell reporter Activity

The B7H3 antigen-dependent CD3 agonistic capacity of an antigen-targeting restricted CD3 conjugating construct conjugated to an antigen in a monovalent or bivalent manner was evaluated using CD3-NFAT Jurkat report cells. Jurkat cells express NFAT driven Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP). Agonism of CD3 results in NFAT signaling and green fluorescence generation. In this assay, the target cells include A375(B7H3 positive) or CCRF-CEM (B7H3 negative) cells. For reporter assays utilizing adherent target cells expressing antigen, the target cells were seeded, allowed to settle at room temperature for uniform distribution, and incubated at 37 ℃ for several hours to allow adherence prior to addition of reporter cells and antigen-targeting restricted CD3 conjugate constructs. The assay plates were continuously imaged using the IncuCyte ZOOM system and CD3 reporter cell activation was determined by measuring the integrated total green objects.

As shown in fig. 21C, significantly increased fluorescent reporter activity was observed in the presence of the exemplary bivalent B7H3 targeting construct cx5187 compared to the reporter activity of the exemplary monovalent constructs cx5873 and cx 5965. No reporter activity was observed when the constructs were incubated with Jurkat reporter cells co-cultured with B7H3 negative CCRF target cells (fig. 21D).

C. Cytotoxic Activity

Cytotoxicity of the B7H 3-targeted CD3 restricted binding construct was evaluated on melanoma cell line a375 and T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell line CCRF-CEM (which served as B7H3 positive and negative cell lines, respectively). To assess cytotoxicity, target cells were treated at 1.0x 10⁴Individual cells/well were seeded, allowed to settle at room temperature for uniform distribution, and incubated at 37 ℃ for several hours. Primary T cells were negatively enriched from PBMCs isolated from a healthy human donor, leukopak, and added at a ratio of 10:1T cells to target cells. Green caspase-3/7 reagent was added, which fluorescently labeled nuclear DNA of cells undergoing apoptosis. Multispecific constructs with restricted CD3 conjugation activity were titrated onto co-cultures and assay plates were continuously imaged using the IncuCyte ZOOM system. Target cell death was determined by measuring the total red/green overlapping object area.

As shown in figure 22A, the exemplary bivalent B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct cx5187 showed enhanced target-dependent T cell-mediated cytotoxicity compared to monovalent versions of the constructs cx5873 and cx 5965. In these assays, no cytotoxicity was observed in the absence of B7H3 expression by the target cells, as shown in fig. 22B, where CCRF-CEM cells were used as target cells.

D.T cell regulation

T cell modulation was assessed by monitoring T cell activation by expressing CD25 in suspension cells from the above T cell cytotoxicity assay, which involved culturing T cells with either a B7H3 positive (a375) or B7H3 negative cell line (CCRF-CEM) in the presence of cx5187, cx5873, or cx 5965. To assess T cell activation, suspension cells from the above T cell cytotoxicity assay involving culturing T cells with either a B7H3 positive (a375) or B7H3 negative cell line (CCRF-CEM) in the presence of an exemplary B7H 3-targeted restricted CD3 engagement construct were collected. Cells were stained with live/dead stain and fluorophore conjugated anti-CD 4, anti-CD 8, and anti-CD 25 antibodies. Cells were analyzed using a SONY SA3800 spectrometer and CD4+ or CD8+ T cell activation was determined by measuring CD25 expression levels or the percentage of CD25 positive cells.

As shown in fig. 23A and 23B, the exemplary bivalent B7H3 targetlimited CD3 engagement construct cx5187 showed enhanced target-dependent T cell-mediated activation compared to the monovalent versions of the constructs cx5873 and cx5965, as demonstrated by the enhanced potency of CD25 upregulation on CD4 and CD 8T cells. In these assays, no T cell activation was observed in the absence of B7H3 expression by the target cells, as shown in fig. 23C and 23D, where CCRF-CEM cells were used as target cells. These results demonstrate that a restricted CD3 engagement construct targeting B7H3 induces potent antigen-dependent activation of both CD4 and CD 8T cells.

D. Summary of the invention

Together, these results demonstrate that constructs containing a monovalent or bivalent sdAb antigen-binding domain and CRBR are capable of antigen-dependent CD3 binding and T cell activation. Notably, the bivalent antigen-targeting restricted CD3 conjugation construct showed superior antigen-dependent CD3 binding and activity compared to the monovalent antigen-targeting restricted CD3 conjugation construct. These results are consistent with the finding that constructs containing dual antigen-binding domains at both the N-terminus and the C-terminus have superior binding and T cell activity compared to monovalent constructs containing only a single monovalent antigen-binding domain. Furthermore, without wishing to be bound by theory, positioning one of the sdabs C-terminal to the CD3 binding domain may form a more optimal immune synapse as compared to a construct in which the sdAb is only N-terminal to the Fc, since the former may increase the immune synapse distance.

Example 14: restricted multispecific construction of CD3 containing single or multiple antigen-binding DLL3 targeting domains Evaluation of bodies

This example describes the evaluation and characterization of the exemplary DLL3 targeting restricted CD3 engagement constructs generated in a human primary T cell in vitro assay.

The constructs containing DLL3 targeting sdabs were evaluated for T cell activation activity in a T cell reporter assay. The activity of DLL3 targeting restricted CD3 conjugation constructs (e.g., cx5352, cx5800, and cx5801) formatted as anti-DLL 3 sdabs as one or more antigen binding domains was evaluated (see fig. 20, see also tables E4 and E7). All constructs tested contained disulfide-stabilized anti-CD 3 fv (dsfv) containing interchain disulfide bonds generated by paired modification of anti-CD 3 VH G44C with VL G100C. In addition, each DLL3 targeting construct was engineered to contain a co-stimulatory receptor sdAb at the C-terminus of the CD3 dsFv.

A. Bonding of

Binding of exemplary multispecific constructs containing antigen binding domains to DLL3 to DLL3 positive SHP-77 tumor cells or primary T cells was evaluated. As shown in figure 24A, the bivalent restricted CD3 engagement construct cx5352 targeting DLL3 showed higher affinity binding to DLL3 positive SHP-77 cells compared to monovalent versions cx5800 and cx 5801. As depicted in fig. 24B, none of the tested constructs showed binding to DLL3 negative primary T cells. These binding assays were performed by flow cytometry, where bound constructs were detected using a fluorophore-conjugated anti-human IgG Fc secondary antibody.

B.T cell reporter Activity

T cell activity was assessed in a reporter assay essentially as described in example 13, except that Jurkat cells expressing NFAT-driven luciferase were used and luciferase activity was monitored. NFAT-driven luciferase CD3 Jurkat reporter cells were co-cultured with SHP-77(DLL3 positive) target cells in the presence of monovalent and bivalent constructs containing antigen binding domains against DLL3 antigen (see figure 20). Specifically, as shown in figure 24C, the exemplary bivalent construct cx5352 induced significantly higher luciferase activity in this assay compared to the exemplary monovalent constructs cx5800 and cx 5801. These results are consistent with those observed with the B7H3 targeting construct, indicating that the activity of the construct is not specific for a particular target antigen.

C. Summary of the invention

Together, these results demonstrate that a restricted anti-CD 3 construct formatted with an anti-DLL 3 sdAb binding domain and CRBR is able to bind to DLL 3-expressing cell line SHP-77 and trigger antigen-dependent T cell activation. This indicates that the constrained anti-CD 3 constructs described herein are not specific for the target antigen, but are effective in binding to various antigens to elicit T cell cytotoxicity and activation against cells expressing the target.

Example 15: CD3 restricted multispecific proteins containing an antigen-binding 5T4 targeting domain with or without a co-stimulatory binding region Generation and evaluation of sexual constructs

A multispecific construct is generated to contain a heterodimeric Fc region of an immunoglobulin coupled to a CD3 binding region by a linker (e.g., a non-cleavable linker) and an antigen binding domain that binds 5T4 tumor-associated antigen (TAA) at the amino terminus with respect to the Fc region of the multispecific polypeptide construct and at the carboxy terminus with respect to the CD3 binding region of the multispecific polypeptide construct. Constructs with or without 4-1 BB-targeted sdabs as CRBRs were generated and T cell activity was compared in various assays.

A. Design and Generation of constructs

An exemplary multispecific construct was generated having the form depicted in figure 3. Polynucleotides encoding at least a first polypeptide chain and a second polypeptide chain of a heterodimeric multispecific polypeptide construct are generated and cloned into a plasmid for expression. The first polypeptide chain typically comprises, in order from N-terminus to C-terminus, a first Fc polypeptide (e.g., an Fc hole polypeptide); a non-cuttable joint; and the Variable Light (VL) domain of an anti-CD 3 antibody. The second polypeptide chain typically comprises, in order from N-terminus to C-terminus, a second Fc polypeptide (e.g., an Fc knob polypeptide); the same non-cleavable linker as in the case of the first polypeptide chain; and the Variable Heavy (VH) domain of an anti-CD 3 antibody. anti-CD 3 antibodies included disulfide stabilized (dsFv) antibodies (anti-CD 3 VH with mutation G44C and VL with mutation G100C) as shown in table E5. One of the additional polypeptide chains encodes two 5T4 antigen binding domains, one at the amino terminus of the Fc domain and one at the carboxy terminus of the CD3 binding region. An exemplary construct cx5951 without CRBR was generated, whereas construct cx5185 contained a 4-1BB antigen binding domain (e.g., sdAb) as a CRBR located carboxy-terminal to the CD3 binding region, e.g., an sdAb containing CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 as set forth in SEQ ID NOs 308, 309, and 310, respectively; such as shown in SEQ ID NO: 215).

The components of an exemplary restricted CD3 binding construct with an sdAb domain targeting 5T4 are given in table E5 below. The construct was expressed and purified essentially as described in example 12.

B.T cell Activity

The activity of the above constructs in binding to CD3 was compared in various assays.

1. Cytotoxic Activity

Cytotoxic activity against target cells was assessed in the presence of exemplary 5T4 targeting constructs with a 41BB binding co-stimulatory receptor binding region (cx5185) or without CRBR (cx 5951). For cytotoxicity assays, Ovcar-5 cells expressing 5T4 or control CCRF-CEM cells not expressing 5T4 were used as target cells and seeded, allowed to settle at room temperature for uniform distribution, and incubated at 37 ℃ for several hours to allow adherence prior to addition of other assay components. Primary T cells were negatively enriched from PBMCs isolated from healthy human donors leukopak and added at a ratio of 10:1-40:1T cells to target cells. Herein, the target cells were labeled red with CytoID red while apoptosis was monitored with green fluorescent caspase-3/7 substrate, and thus apoptotic target cells were those double-labeled red and green. The assay plates were continuously imaged using the IncuCyte ZOOM system. Target cell death was determined by measuring the total red/green overlapping object area.

As shown in figure 25A, a significant difference in the efficacy of T cell-mediated target cell cytotoxicity against 5T 4-expressing target cells was observed after 48 hours in the case of 5T 4-targeted restricted CD3 engagement construct cx5185 with a 41 BB-binding co-stimulatory receptor binding region compared to the same construct cx5951 lacking the 41 BB-binding co-stimulatory receptor binding region. No cytotoxic activity was observed against non-target cells (fig. 25B).

These observations support that the antigen-dependent restricted CD3 forms provided herein with additional co-stimulatory capacity show enhanced efficacy of mediated cytotoxicity compared to other CD3 conjugated forms.

T cell activation

To evaluate T cell activation mediated by the exemplary 5T 4-targeted restricted CD3 engagement construct, cx5185 and cx5951 were incubated in co-cultures of T cells and target cells expressing 5T4 (a375 cells, Ovcar-5 cells, or SHP-77 cells). To assess T cell activation, cells were collected and stained with live/dead stain and fluorophore-conjugated anti-CD 4, anti-CD 8, and/or anti-CD 25 antibodies. Cells were analyzed using a SONY SA3800 spectrometer and CD4+ or CD8+ T cell activation was determined by measuring the expression level of CD 25. T cell activation was assessed by CD25 expression on CD4 and CD8 populations. T cell activation (as measured by expression of CD 25) was evident in CD4 (fig. 26A-C) and CD8 (fig. 26D-F) T cells that had been incubated with target cells expressing 5T4 in the presence of the exemplary constructs. As shown in fig. 26A-F, the 5T4 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct (cx5185) incorporating the 41BB binding domain showed enhanced activation capacity against both CD4 and CD 8T cells compared to the analogous construct cx5951 lacking the 41BB binding domain.

T cell cytokine production

The effect of incorporating the 41BB binding domain into the exemplary 5T4 targeting restricted CD3 conjugating construct on T cell mediated IFN γ production was evaluated using various 5T4 expressing cell lines a375 (fig. 27A), SHP-77 (fig. 27B) or Ovcar5 (fig. 27C). After co-culturing the T cells and target cells expressing 5T4, the supernatants were analyzed for IFN γ content by sandwich ELISA (BioLegend, usa). Following the manufacturer's instructions, and generating a standard curve interpolated for cytokine concentration values of supernatant samples. Samples with absorbance values below the lower detection limit were assigned a cytokine concentration equal to half the lowest standard concentration. As shown in fig. 27A-27C, 5T4 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct cx5185 incorporating 41BB binding domain showed enhanced IFN γ production compared to a similar construct cx5951 lacking 41BB binding domain.

T cell proliferation

CellTrace measurement by flow cytometry^TMT cell proliferation was assessed by dilution of Violet dye (Thermo Fisher Scientific) in labeled CD4+ or CD8+ T cells. T cells were negatively enriched from PBMCs and used in CellTrace according to the manufacturer's protocol^TMViolet mark. The 5T4 target-restricted CD3 conjugation construct was titrated onto co-cultures of labeled T cells and 5T4 expressing cells a375 (fig. 28A and 28D), Ovcar-5 (fig. 28B and 28D), or SHP-77 (fig. 28C and 28F), and the assay plates were incubated at 37 ℃ for five days. Cells were stained with the viability dye propidium iodide and fluorophore conjugated anti-CD 4 and anti-CD 8 antibodies and analyzed using a SONY SA3800 spectrometer. By gating appropriate viable T cell subsets and measuring CellTrace ^TMThe percentage of cells with a Violet intensity lower than that of T cells from untreated co-cultures determined the proliferative CD4+ orPercentage of CD8+ T cells.

The 5T4 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct cx5185 incorporating the 41BB binding domain showed enhanced proliferation of both CD4 (fig. 28A-C) and CD8 (fig. 28D-F) T cells compared to the analogous construct cx5951 lacking the 41BB binding domain.

T cell mitochondrial assessment

41BB signaling has been shown to enhance mitochondrial function. Mitochondrial function can be monitored using the mitochondrial-selective fluorescent probe MitoTracker Green (Thermo Fisher Scientific) that accumulates in active mitochondria. To assess mitochondrial function of T cells, T cells were co-cultured with 5T4 expressing cell line a375 (fig. 29A and 29D), Ovcar-5 (fig. 29B and 29E), or SHP-77 (fig. 29C and 29F) in the presence of the exemplary 5T 4-targeted restricted CD3 engagement construct for five days. MitoTracker Green was added with the viability dyes propidium iodide and fluorophore conjugated anti-CD 4 and anti-CD 8 antibodies at a final cell staining concentration of 100nM and cells were analyzed using a SONY SA3800 spectrometer. The median MitoTracker Green fluorescence intensity for CD4+ or CD8+ T cells was determined by gating the appropriate subpopulation of viable T cells. The 5T4 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct cx5185 incorporating the 41BB binding domain showed enhanced mitochondrial function of both CD4 (fig. 29A-C) and CD8 (fig. 29D-F) T cells compared to the analogous construct cx5951 lacking the 41BB binding domain.

T cell reporter assay

The ability of the restricted CD3 engagement construct containing a 5T 4-targeting sdAb to mediate specific agonism of the 41BB co-stimulatory signaling pathway was also assessed. An exemplary restricted CD3 engagement construct targeting 5T4 without a costimulatory receptor binding domain (cx5951) or with a 41BB binding domain (cx5185) was tested using Jurkat 41BB nfkb-luciferase reporter cells (see, e.g., example 3). Recombinant plate-bound 5T4 was used as a source of antigen. As shown in figure 30, cx5185 incorporated 41BB binding domain was found to induce specific agonism of the targeted co-stimulatory receptor.

C. Summary of the invention

Together, these results demonstrate that CD3 conjugated constructs containing sdAb domains targeting 5T4 with and without CRBR are capable of antigen-dependent activation of T cells. Notably, the 5T 4-targeted restricted CD3 conjugation construct incorporating the 41BB binding domain showed superior antigen dependence and activity compared to the 5T 4-targeted restricted CD3 conjugation construct without the 41BB binding domain.

Example 16: localization of CD3 binding regions in CD 3-restricted multispecific constructs containing B7H3 targeting domains Comparison of

Additional multispecific polypeptide constructs targeting B7H3 were generated containing an Fv that is a binding region for CD3, wherein the VH or VL of the anti-CD 3 Fv in the construct is located C-terminal to the Fc-knob or Fc-hole of the heterodimeric Fc region. The ability of the resulting CD3 restricted multispecific polypeptide construct to activate T cells via CD3 engagement was evaluated in a T cell reporter assay.

A. Design and Generation of constructs

As shown in fig. 31A, a multispecific construct was generated to contain a heterodimeric Fc region of an immunoglobulin coupled to a CD3 binding region by a linker (e.g., a non-cleavable linker); a 4-1BB antigen binding domain (e.g., sdAb) that is CRBR, carboxy-terminal to the CD3 binding region; and a dual antigen-binding region that binds B7H3 tumor-associated antigen (TAA) at the amino terminus with respect to the Fc region of the multispecific polypeptide construct and at the carboxy terminus with respect to the CD 3-binding region of the multispecific polypeptide construct.

Polynucleotides encoding at least a first polypeptide chain and a second polypeptide chain of a heterodimeric multispecific polypeptide construct are generated and cloned into a plasmid for expression. The first polypeptide chain typically comprises, in order from N-terminus to C-terminus, a first Fc polypeptide (e.g., an Fc hole polypeptide); a non-cuttable joint; the anti-CD 3 antibody may be light (VL; e.g., cx5187)) or heavy (VH; e.g., cx5841) domain; and a 4-1BB binding domain which is a CRBR (e.g., an sdAb comprising CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 shown in SEQ ID Nos: 308, 309, and 310, respectively; e.g., shown in SEQ ID NO: 215). The second polypeptide chain typically comprises, in order from N-terminus to C-terminus, a first B7H3 antigen binding domain (e.g., B7H3 sdAb # 1); a second Fc polypeptide (e.g., an Fc knob polypeptide); the same linker as in the case of the first polypeptide chain; the other of the Variable Heavy (VH) or Variable Light (VL) domains of the anti-CD 3 antibody; and a second B7H3 antigen binding domain (e.g., B7H3 sdAb # 2). anti-CD 3 antibodies include disulfide stabilized (dsFv) antibodies (anti-CD 3 VH with mutation G44C and VL with mutation G100C).

Notably, as shown in fig. 31A, the CD3 Fv was differently positioned for anti-CD 3 VH and anti-CD 3 VL relative to the positioning of the Fc knob or Fc hole of the heterodimeric Fc region. As shown at the top of fig. 31A, cx5841 was produced in which the first polypeptide of the heterodimeric construct had the VL of the CD3 Fv at the C-terminus of the Fc knob and the B7H3 binding domains at the N-and C-most termini, and the second polypeptide of the heterodimeric construct had the VH of the CD3 Fv at the C-terminus of the Fc hole and the 41BB binding domain at the C-most terminus. In contrast, the bottom of fig. 31A depicts an exemplary construct cx5187, in which the first polypeptide of the heterodimeric construct has the VH of the CD3 Fv at the C-terminus of the Fc knob and the B7H3 binding domains at the N-and C-most termini, and the second polypeptide of the heterodimeric construct has the VL of the CD3 Fv at the C-terminus of the Fc knob and the 41BB binding domain at the C-most terminus.

The components of the exemplary restricted CD3 binding constructs generated are shown in table E6. The construct was expressed and purified essentially as described in example 12.

B.T cell reporter Activity

To compare CD3 engagement, exemplary constructs were tested in an antigen-dependent CD3 reporter assay by assessing their ability to activate the CD3 NFAT reporter Jurkat cell line in co-culture with target antigen expressing cells. Activation was assessed by monitoring green fluorescence or luciferase reporter signal in Jurkat reporter cells.

Antigen-targeting restricted CD3 conjugated constructs were titrated onto co-cultures of a375 cells expressing B7H3 or control CCRF-CEM cells not expressing B7H3 and engineered Jurkat cells expressing NFAT-driven Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP). Conjugation of CD3 resulted in NFAT signaling and green fluorescence generation. For reporter assays with adherent target cells, target cells were seeded, allowed to settle at room temperature for uniform distribution, and incubated at 37 ℃ for several hours to allow adherence prior to addition of reporter cells and restricted CD3 conjugate constructs targeting the antigen. The assay plates were continuously imaged using the IncuCyte ZOOM system and CD3 reporter cell activation was determined by measuring the integrated intensity of the total green object.

As shown in figure 31B, the exemplary B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct exhibited the ability to mediate target antigen specific T cell activation when incubated in reporter T cell co-cultures in the presence of target cells expressing B7H 3. However, no reporter activity was observed in co-cultures with cells that did not express B7H3 (fig. 31C). Notably, cx5187 with the pestle-VH, mortar-VL forms showed enhanced T cell activation compared to cx5841 with the pestle-VL, mortar-VH forms.

In a similar assay, the same antigen-targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct was titrated onto co-cultures of a375 cells expressing B7H3 or control CCRF-CEM cells not expressing B7H3 and engineered Jurkat cells expressing NFAT-driven luciferase. As shown in figure 31D, the exemplary B7H3 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct exhibited the ability to mediate target antigen specific T cell activation when incubated in reporter T cell co-cultures in the presence of target cells expressing B7H 3. Likewise, no reporter activity was observed in co-cultures with cells that did not express B7H3 (fig. 31E). As in the GFP reporter assay, the construct with the pestle-VH, hole-VL forms (cx5187) showed enhanced T cell activation compared to the construct with the pestle-VL, hole-VH forms (cx 5841).

These results are consistent with the observation that enhanced CD3 engagement and activity is observed when the components of the CD3 Fv are oriented such that VH and VL are located at the C-terminus of the Fc knob region and Fc hole region, respectively.

Example 17: costimulatory receptor binding regions in CD3 restricted multispecific constructs containing DLL3 targeting domains Function of

Additional DLL 3-targeted multispecific polypeptide constructs with or without a co-stimulatory receptor binding region targeted to 4-1BB were generated. The ability of the resulting CD3 restricted multispecific polypeptide construct to activate T cells via CD3 engagement was evaluated in a T cell reporter assay.

A. Design and Generation of constructs

As shown in fig. 32A-B, multispecific constructs were generated to contain a heterodimeric Fc region of an immunoglobulin coupled to a CD3 binding region by a linker (e.g., a non-cleavable linker) and a dual antigen-binding domain that binds to DLL3 tumor-associated antigen (TAA), which is located amino-terminal to the Fc region of the multispecific polypeptide construct and carboxy-terminal to the CD3 binding region of the multispecific polypeptide construct. In some cases, the construct also contains a 4-1BB antigen-binding domain that is a CRBR (e.g., an sdAb containing CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 shown in SEQ ID NOS: 308, 309, and 310, respectively; e.g., shown in SEQ ID NO: 215), which is carboxy-terminal to the CD3 binding region.

Polynucleotides encoding at least a first polypeptide chain and a second polypeptide chain of a heterodimeric multispecific polypeptide construct are generated and cloned into a plasmid for expression. The first polypeptide chain typically comprises, in order from N-terminus to C-terminus, a first Fc polypeptide (e.g., an Fc hole polypeptide); a non-cuttable joint; and the Variable Light (VL) domain of an anti-CD 3 antibody. In one construct, the first polypeptide additionally comprises a 4-1BB binding domain (e.g., an sdAb) that is a CRBR at the carboxy terminus of the VL domain of a CD3 Fv. The second polypeptide chain typically comprises, in order from N-terminus to C-terminus, a second Fc polypeptide (e.g., an Fc knob polypeptide); the same linker as in the case of the first polypeptide chain; and the Variable Heavy (VH) domain of an anti-CD 3 antibody. anti-CD 3 antibodies include disulfide stabilized (dsFv) antibodies (anti-CD 3 VH with mutation G44C and VL with mutation G100C). The second polypeptide chain additionally encodes two DLL3 antigen binding domains, one at the amino terminus of the Fc domain and one at the carboxy terminus of the CD3 binding region. Notably, one of the exemplary constructs produced additionally contained an sdAb targeting the 4-1BB co-stimulatory receptor (e.g., cx 5352).

An exemplary restricted CD3 binding construct with sdAb domain targeting DLL3 is given in table E7 below. The construct was expressed and purified essentially as described in example 12.

B.T cell Activity

To compare the activity of DLL3 targeting constructs containing CRBR C-terminal to the CD3 binding domain with constructs not containing CRBR, exemplary constructs were tested in various assays to assess their effect on T cell activity.

T cell reporter assay

The ability of a constrained CD3 engagement construct containing a costimulatory receptor binding domain to mediate specific agonism of a costimulatory signaling pathway was evaluated. Jurkat 41BB NF κ B-luciferase reporter cells were used to test exemplary DLL 3-targeting restricted CD3 conjugation constructs without a costimulatory receptor binding domain (cx5499) or with a 41BB binding domain (cx 5352). The reporter cells were co-cultured with the DLL3 negative cell line HEK-293 or HEK-293 cells transfected to transiently express a truncated version of DLL3 (e.g., 276-618 of SEQ ID NO: 324). As shown in figure 33, cx5352 showed DLL 3-dependent 41BB agonism, with robust luciferase activity observed only in the presence of cells expressing DLL 3. Low levels of DLL3 dependent NFkB activation were observed with cx5499, indicating that CD3 signaling in this assay may result in some NFkB activation.

2. Cytotoxic Activity

Primary human T cells were negatively enriched from PBMCs isolated from three different healthy human donors, leukopak, and added at a ratio of 10:1-40: 1T cells to target cells. Herein, the target cells were labeled red with CytoID red while apoptosis was monitored with green fluorescent caspase-3/7 substrate, and thus apoptotic target cells were those double-labeled red and green. The assay plates were continuously imaged using the IncuCyte ZOOM system. Target cell death was determined by measuring the total red/green overlapping object area (as shown in fig. 34A-B).

In an exemplary assay, the tested CD3 engagement constructs comprised a DLL3 targeting sdAb (cx5352) with 41BB binding CRBR. The target cells were SHP-77 cells expressing DLL3 or 293FS cells not expressing DLL 3. As shown in fig. 34A, cx5352 was able to elicit T cell-mediated antigen-specific cytotoxicity. No cytotoxicity was observed in the absence of antigen, as shown by the absence of red/green overlapping object areas in cocultures containing DLL3 expressing cells (fig. 34B). This data demonstrates the ability of an exemplary DLL3 targeting restricted CD3 engagement construct with a 41BB binding domain to elicit T cell-mediated antigen-specific cytotoxicity.

In a similar assay, primary human PBMCs isolated from a healthy human donor, leukopak, were added at a ratio of effector to target cells (E: T) of 10:1, 5:1 or 1.25: 1. PBMCs were co-cultured with SHP-77 target cells expressing DLL3 and incubated in the presence of increasing concentrations of exemplary constructs containing DLL3 targeting sdabs with CRBR (cx53532) and without CRBR (cx 5499). As shown in fig. 35A-C, cx5352 showed cytotoxicity against target cells at all three E: T ratios analyzed.

T cell cytokine expression

Supernatants from T cell mediated cytotoxicity assays (performed essentially as described above with SHP-77 cells as target cells) were analyzed for IFN γ content by sandwich ELISA (BioLegent, USA). Following the manufacturer's instructions, and generating a standard curve interpolated for cytokine concentration values of supernatant samples. Samples with absorbance values below the lower detection limit were assigned a cytokine concentration equal to half the lowest standard concentration.

As shown in figure 36, DLL3 targeting restricted CD3 conjugation construct cx5352 incorporating 41BB binding domain resulted in enhanced IFN γ production by T cells compared to a similar construct cx5499 lacking 41BB binding domain.
