Antibody fragments intended for use as vectors of cytotoxic payloads (e.g. antibody-drug conjugates, radiotherapy) can accumulate at clearance organs like kidneys and liver, where they can cause dose-limiting toxicities. Renal and hepatic uptakes are known to be affected by protein electrostatics, which promote protein internalization through pinocytosis. Using minibodies as a model of an antibody fragment lacking FcRn recycling, we compared the biodistributions of leads with different degrees of accumulation at the kidney and liver. We identified a positive electrostatic patch highly conserved in a germline family very commonly used in the humanization of approved biologics. Neutralization of this patch led to a drastic reduction in the kidney uptake, leading to a biodistribution more favorable to the delivery of highly cytotoxic payloads. Next, we conducted a high throughput study of the electrostatic properties for all combinations of VH and VL germlines. This analysis shows how different VH/VL combinations exhibit varying tendencies to create electrostatic patches, resulting in Fv variants with different isoelectric points.

EpCAM is an attractive therapeutic target because of its expression in most solid tumors. However, targeting EpCAM has been challenging because it is also highly expressed in normal epithelial tissues. Initial attempts to develop EpCAM-specific T-cell engagers were unsuccessful due to severe cytokine release effects, as well as serious on-target, off-tumor drug-related toxicities. We developed novel, conditionally active biological (CAB) bispecific antibodies that bind to both EpCAM and CD3 in an acidic tumor microenvironment. In healthy tissues, binding to EpCAM and CD3 is greatly reduced by a novel, dual CAB selection, where each binding domain is independently blocked by the presence of physiological chemicals known as Protein-associated Chemical Switches (PaCS). The CAB anti-EpCAM T-cell engagers displayed the anticipated bispecific binding properties and mediated the potent lysis of EpCAM-positive cancer cell lines through the recruitment of T cells in the tumor microenvironment. Xenograft studies showed that the efficacy of CAB bispecific antibodies is similar to that of a non-CAB anti-EpCAM bispecific antibody, but they have markedly reduced toxicity in non-human primates, indicating an unprecedentedly widened therapeutic index of over 100-fold.

The CD47-SIRPα axis has become an important target for cancer immunotherapy. To date, the advancement of CD47-targeted modalities is hindered by the ubiquitous expression of the target, often leading to rapid drug elimination and hematologic toxicity including anemia. To overcome those challenges a bispecific approach was taken. CC-96673, a humanized IgG1 bispecific antibody co-targeting CD47 and CD20, is designed to bind CD20 with high affinity and CD47 with optimally lowered affinity.

The antigen-binding site consists primarily of six loops known as complementarity-determining regions (CDRs), and an open question has been whether these loops change their conformation when they bind to an antigen. Existing surveys of antibody-antigen complex structures have only examined CDR conformational change in case studies or small-scale surveys. With an increasing number of antibodies where both free and complexed structures have been deposited in the Protein Data Bank, a large-scale survey of CDR conformational change during binding is now possible. To this end, we built a dataset, AbAgDb, that currently includes 177 antibodies with high-quality CDRs, each of which has at least one bound and one unbound structure. We analyzed the conformational change of the C<i>α</i> backbone of each CDR upon binding and found that, in most cases, the CDRs (other than CDR-H3) show minimal movement, while 70.6% and 87% of CDR-H3s showed global C<i>α</i> RMSD ≤ 1.0Å and ≤ 2.0Å, respectively.

However, there is currently no effective pharmacological intervention that can reverse body weight loss and improve physical performance in patients with cachexia. Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) can suppress appetite and regulate energy balance through binding to glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor receptor alpha-like (GFRAL). In order to develop a novel, effective treatment for cachexia, we generated a GDF15-targeting VHH nanobody, GB18-06, that was able to bind GDF15 with high affinity. <i>In vitro</i>, GB18-06 potently inhibited the GDF15-GFRAL signaling pathway, leading to a reduction of downstream ERK and AKT phosphorylation levels; <i>in vivo</i>, GB18-06 alleviated weight loss (>20%) in cancer and chemotherapy-induced cachexia models in mice. Compared with the control (phosphate-buffered saline) group, the ambulatory activity of mice in the GB18-06-treated group also increased 77%. Furthermore, GB18-06 exhibited desirable pharmacokinetic properties and an excellent developability profile. Our study has demonstrated a means of developing targeted treatment for cachexia with high efficacy, potentially leading to improved clinical outcomes and quality of life for patients with cachexia.</p>","PeriodicalId":18206,"journal":{"name":"mAbs","volume":"16 1","pages":"2416453"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11485916/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142469143","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
