I. gpA33
Colorectal cancer is among the most common malignancies of the Western
world and is a leading cause of cancer deaths (Silverberg, E. et al. (1989) “Cancer
Statistics, 1989,” CA Cancer J Clin. 39(1):3-20). One potentially useful target for
colon cancer is the 43kD transmembrane glycoprotein A33 (gpA33) ((Heath, J .K. et
al. (1997) “The Human A33 Antigen Is A Transmembrane Glycoprotein And A Novel
Member Of The Immunoglobulin Supeifiimily,” Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. (USA)
94(2):469-474; Ritter, G. et a1. (1997) “Characterization 0f Posttranslational
cations Of Human A33 n, A Novel Palmitoylated Surface Glycoprotein
Of Human Gastrointestinal Epithelium,’ 9 Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun.
236(3):682-686). gpA33 was first discovered through raising monoclonal murinc
antibodies against the human pancreatic carcinoma derived cell line ASPCI. One
antibody (MAb A33) was found to react with a surface cell protein of 43 kDa, which
was therefore designated “gpA33” (Wong, N.A. et a]. (2006) “EpCAM and gpA33
Are Markers OfBarrett’s Metaplasia,” J. Clin. Pathol. 260-263).
gpA33 is a embrane protein of the onal adhesion molecule
family; Abud, H.E. et al. (2000) “The Murine A33 Antigen Is Expressed At Two
Distinct Sites During Development, The [CM Of The Blastocyst And The Intestinal
Epithelium,” Mech. Dev. 98(1-2):111-114; Barendswaard, E.C. et al. (1998) “Rapid
And Specific Targeting 0f Monoclonal dy A33 To A Colon Cancer Xenograft
1n Nude Mice,” Int. J. Oncol. 45-53; Panjideh, H. et a1. (2008) “Biodistribution
And Efficacy 0f[1311]A33scFv::CDy, A Recombinant Antibody-Enzyme Protein For
Colon Cancer,” Int. J. Oncol. 925-930). Although the functional significance of
the A33 antigen is not yet understood, it has been shown to e colonic mucosal
repair in an animal model of colitis and is homogeneously expressed in >95% of all
colorectal carcinomas. A33 expression is uniform across both disease stage and
degree of ogical differentiation, and the n is not detectably secreted 0r
shed into the blood stream (Infante, J .R. et a1. (2013) “Safety, Pharmacokinetics And
Pharmacocbinamics Of The 33 FlllL1’-Hlllllan Monoclonal Antibody, KRN330,
In Patients With Advanced Colorectal Cancer,” Eur. J. Cancer. 49(6):1169-1175;

Recombinant Antibody-Enzyme Protein For Colon Cancer,”lnt. J. Oncol. 32(4):925-
930). Conversely, only a few instances of non-gastrointestinal A33 antigen
expression have been identified (Johnstone, C.N. et al. (2000) “Characterization 0f
Mouse A33 Antigen, A Definitive Marker For Basolateral Surfaces Of inal
Epithelial Cells,” Am. J. l. Gastrointest. Liver Physiol. 279(3):GSOO-GSIO).
In light of the highly restricted expression of the A33 antigen, researchers
have explored the possibility of treating A33-associated s with antibodies
(Infante, J .R. et al. (2013) “Safety, Pharmacokinetics And Pharmacodynamics Of The
Anti-A33 Fully-Human Monoclonal Antibody, KRN330, In Patients With Advanced
Colorectal Cancer,” Eur. J. Cancer. 49(6):] 169-1 175; Ackerman, M.E. et al. (2008)

11. CD3
CD3 is a T cell co-reccptor composed of four distinct chains
(Wucherpfennig, KW. et al. (2010) “Structural y Of The T-Cell Receptor:
Insights Into Receptor Assembly, Ligand Recognition, And Initiation 0f Signaling,”
Cold Spring Harb. Perspect. Biol. 2(4):a005140; pages 1-14; Chetty, R. et al. (1994)
“CD3: Structure, Function And The Role Oflmmunostaining In Clinical Practice,” J.
. 173:303-307).
In mammals, the CD3 complex contains a CD37 chain, a CD36 chain, and
two CD38 chains. These chains associate with a molecule known as the T cell
receptor (TCR) in order to generate an tion signal in T lymphocytes. In the
absence of CD3, TCRS do not assemble properly and are degraded (Thomas, S. et al.
(2010) “Molecular Immunology Lessons Franz eutic T-Cell Receptor Gene
Transfer,” Immunology l29(2):l70—177). CD3 is found bound to the nes of
all mature T cells, and in virtually no other cell type (see, Janeway, C.A. et al. (2005)

111. Bi-Specific Diabodies
The ability of an intact, unmodified antibody (e.g., an IgG) to bind an epitope
of an antigen s upon the presence of variable domains on the immunoglobulin
light and heavy chains (i.e., the VL and VH domains, respectively). The design of a
y is based on the single chain Fv construct (scFv) (see, e.g., Holligcr et al.
(1993) “’Diabodies Small Bivalent And Bispecific Antibody Fragments,” Proc. Natl.
Acad. Sci. (U.S.A.) 90:6444-6448; US Patent ation No. 2004/0058400

Antibodies For Cancer Therapy,” Cancer Res. 69(12):494l-4944).
Interaction of an antibody light chain and an antibody heavy chain and, in
particular, interaction of its VL and VH domains forms one of the epitope binding
sites of the antibody. In contrast, the scFv construct comprises a VL and VH Domain
of an antibody contained in a single ptide chain wherein the domains are
ted by a flexible linker of sufficient length to allow self-assembly of the two
domains into a functional epitope binding site. Where self-assembly of the VL and
VH domains is rendered impossible due to a linker of cient length (less than
about 12 amino acid residues), two of the scFv constructs ct with one another
other to form a bivalent molecule in which the VL of one chain associates with the
VI-I of the other (reviewed in Marvin et al. (2005) “Recombinant Approaches To IgG-
Like Bispecific Antibodies, " Acta Pharmacol. Sin. 262649-658).
l dies are capable of binding to only one epitope species (i.e.,
mono-specific), although they can bind multiple copies of that species (i.e., exhibiting
bi-valency or multi-valency). The art has noted the capability to produce diabodies
that differ from such natural antibodies in being capable of binding two or more
different epitope species (i.e., exhibiting bi-specifieity or multispecifieity in addition
to bi-valency or multi-valency) (see, e.g., Holliger et al. (1993) “’Diabodies Small
Bivalent And Bispecific Antibody Fragments,” Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. (U.S.A.)
90:6444-6448; US 2004/0058400 (Hollinger et al.); US 2004/0220388 (Mertens et

The provision of non-monospecific diabodies provides a significant
advantage: the capacity to ate and co-localize cells that express different
epitopes. Bivalent diabodies thus have anging applications including therapy
and immunodiagnosis. Bi-valency allows for great flexibility in the design and
engineering of the diabody in various applications, providing enhanced avidity to
multimeric antigens, the cross-linking of differing antigens, and ed targeting to
specific cell types relying on the presence of both target antigens. Due to their
increased valency, low iation rates and rapid clearance from the circulation (for
ies of small size, at or below ~50 kDa), diabody molecules known in the art
have also shown particular use in the field of tumor g (Fitzgerald et al. (1997)
“Improved Tumour Targeting By ltide Stabilized Diabodies Expressed In
Pichia pastoris, " Protein Eng. 10:1221). Of particular importance is the co-ligating
of differing cells, for example, the cross-linking of cytotoxic T cells to tumor cells
(Staerz "
et al. (1985) “Hybrid Antibodies Can Target Sites For Attack By T Cells,
Nature 8-631, and er et a]. (1996) “Specific Killing 0fLymphoma Cells
By xic T-Cells Mediated By A Bispecific y, " Protein Eng. 305).
Diabody epitope binding domains may also be ed to a surface
determinant of any immune effector cell such as CD3, CD16, CD32, or CD64, which
are expressed on T lymphocytes, natural killer (NK) cells or other mononuclear cells.
In many studies, diabody binding to effector cell determinants, e.g., Fey ors
(FcyR), was also found to activate the effector cell (Holligcr et al. (1996) “Specific
Killing 0fLymphoma Cells By Cytotoxic T-Cells Mediated By A Bispecific Diabody, "
Protein Eng. 9:299-305; Holliger et a]. (1999) “Carcinoembljtonic Antigen (CEA)-
Specific T-cell Activation In Colon Carcinoma Induced By Anti-CD3 X Anti-CEA
Bispecific Diabodies And B7 X Anti-CEA Bispecific Fusion Proteins, " Cancer Res.
59:2909-2916; WO 2006/113665; WO 2008/157379; WO 2010/080538; WO
2012/018687; ). Normally, effector cell activation is triggered by
the binding of an antigen bound antibody to an effector cell via Fc-FcyR interaction;
thus, in this regard, diabody les of the invention may exhibit Ig-like
functionality independent of whether they comprise an Fc Domain (e.g., as assayed in
any or function assay known in the art or exemplified herein (e.g., ADCC
assay». By cross-linking tumor and effector cells, the diabody not only brings the
effector cell within the proximity of the tumor cells but leads to effective tumor
killing (see "
e.g., Cao et a1. (2003) “Bispecific Antibody Conjugates In Therapeutics,
Adv. Drug. Deliv. Rev. 55:171-197).
However, the above advantages come at salient cost. The formation of such
non-monospecific ies requires the successful assembly of two or more distinct
and different polypeptides (i.e., such ion requires that the diabodies be formed
through the heterodimerization of different polypeptide chain species). This fact is in
contrast to mono-specific diabodies, which are formed through the homodimerization
of identical polypeptide chains. Because at least two dissimilar polypeptides (i. 6., two
polypeptide species) must be provided in order to form a non-monospeeific diabody,
and because homodimerization of such polypeptides leads to inactive molecules
(Takemura, S. et al. (2000) “Construction Of A Diabody (Small inant
Bispecific Antibody) Using A Refolding System,” Protein Eng. 13(8):583-588), the
production of such polypeptides must be accomplished in such a way as to t
covalent bonding between polypeptides of the same species (Takemura, S. et al.
(2000) “Construction OfA Diabody (Small Recombinant Bispeczfic Antibody) Using
A Refolding ,” Protein Eng. 13(8):583-588). The art has therefore taught the
valent association of such polypeptides (see, e.g., Olafsen et al. (2004)
“Covalent Disulfide-Linked Anti-CEA y Allows Site-Specific Conjugation And
Radiolabeling For Tumor Targeting Applications, " Prot. Engr. Des. Sel. 17:21-27;

Antibody To Both The Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor And The Insulin—Like
Growth Factor Receptor For Enhanced Antitumor ty,” J. Biol. Chem.
): 19665-19672).
However, the art has recognized that bi-spccific monovalcnt diabodics
composed of non-covalently-assoeiated polypeptides are unstable and readily
dissociate into non-functional monomers (see, e.g., Lu, D. et al. (2005) “A Fully
Human inant IgG-Like Bispeci/ic Antibody To Both The Epidermal Growth
Factor Receptor And The Insulin-Like Growth Factor Receptor For Enhanced
mor ty,” J. Biol. Chem. 280(20):19665-19672).
In the face of this challenge, the art has succeeded in developing stable,
covalently bonded heterodimeric non-monospecific diabodics (see, e.g., WO
2006/113665; WO/2008/157379; WO 2010/080538; WO 2012/018687;
WO/2012/162068; Johnson, S. et al. (2010) “Effector Cell Recruitment With Novel

and 2013/0149236). Such approaches e engineering one or more cysteine
es into each of the employed polypeptide species. For example, the addition of
a cysteine residue to the C-terminus of such constructs has been shown to allow
disulfide bonding between the polypeptide chains, stabilizing the resulting
heterodimer t interfering with the binding characteristics of the bivalent
molecule.
Diabodies and other immunoglobulins have been described purporting to
have specificity for either or both of gpA33 and CD3 (see, e.g., US Patent
Publications No. 2012/0014957; 2012/0034160; 2012/0087858; 2012/0189541;
2012/0195900; 2012/0201746; 2012/0237442; 2012/0263722; 258108; and
2012/0276608).
Notwithstanding such success, the production of stable, functional
heterodimeric, non-monospccific diabodies can be further improved by the careful
consideration and placement of the domains employed in the polypeptide chains. The
present invention is thus directed to the ion of specific polypeptides that are
particularly designed to form, via covalent bonding, heterodimeric diabodies and
heterodimeric Fc diabodies that are capable of simultaneously binding gpA33 and
CD3.
Summary of the Invention:
The ion is directed to “gpA33 X CD3 bi-spccific monovalcnt
diabodies.” In particular embodiments, the diabodies of the present invention further

CD3 bi-specific monovalcnt Fc diabodies”) or an Albumin-Binding Domain (“ABD”)
(“gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabodies with ABD”) to extend half-life in
vivo. The gpA33 X CD3 bi-spccific monovalent diabodies of the invention and the
gpA33 X CD3 bi-speeific monovalent Fc ies of the ion comprise two
different polypeptide chains that associate with one another in a heterodimcrie manner
to form one binding site specific for an e of gpA33 and one binding site c
for an epitope of CD3. The gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabodies and
gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent Fc ies of the invention are thus

ed of two ptide chains (a “first” and a “second” polypeptide chain),
which are covalently bonded to one another, for example by disulfide bonding of
cysteine residues located within each polypeptide chain. The gpA33 X CD3 bi-
speeific monovalent Fc diabodies of the invention are composed of three polypeptide
chains (a “first,” “second” and “third” polypeptide chain), wherein the first and
second polypeptide chains are ntly bonded to one another and the first and third
polypeptide chains are covalently bonded to one another. The bi-specifie monovalent
diabodies and bi-speeific monovalent Fe diabodies of the present invention are
capable of simultaneous binding to gpA33 and CD3. The invention is directed to
such gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent ies and bi-specific monovalent
gpA33 X CD3 Fe diabodies, and to pharmaceutical compositions that contain such bi-

ion is additionally directed to methods for the use of such diabodies in the
treatment of cancer and other diseases and conditions.
The gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabodies of the present invention
are composed of two ptide chains that ate with one another to form one
binding site specific for an epitope of gpA33 and one binding site specific for an
epitope of CD3. The individual polypeptide chains of the diabody are covalently
bonded to one another, for example by disulfide bonding of cysteine residues located
within each polypeptide chain. Each polypeptide chain contains an Antigen Binding
Domain of a Light Chain le Domain, an Antigen g Domain of a Heavy
Chain Variable Domain and a heterodimerization Domain. An intervening linker
peptide (Linker l) separates the Antigen Binding Domain of the Light Chain Variable
Domain from the Antigen Binding Domain of the Heavy Chain Variable Domain.
The Antigen Binding Domain of the Light Chain Variable Domain of the first
polypeptide chain interacts with the Antigen Binding Domain of the Heavy Chain
Variable Domain of the second polypeptide chain in order to form a first functional
antigen binding site that is specific for the first antigen (i.e., either gpA33 or CD3).
se, the Antigen Binding Domain of the Light Chain Variable Domain of the
second polypeptide chain interacts with the Antigen Binding Domain of the Heavy
Chain Variable Domain of the first polypeptide chain in order to form a second
onal antigen binding site that is specific for the second n (i.e., either
gpA33 or CD3, depending upon the identity of the first antigen). Thus, the selection
of the Antigen Binding Domain of the Light Chain le Domain and the n
Binding Domain of the Heavy Chain Variable Domain of the first and second
polypeptide chains are coordinated, such that the two ptide chains collectively
comprise Antigen g Domains of Light and Heavy Chain le Domains
capable of binding to gpA33 and CD3.
The gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalcnt Fe diabodics of the present
invention are composed of a first polypeptide chain, a second polypeptide chain and a
third polypeptide chain. The first and second polypeptide chains associate with one
another to form one binding site c for an epitope of gpA33 and one binding site
specific for an epitope of CD3. The first polypeptide chain and the third ptide
chain associate with one another to form an immunoglobulin Fe Domain. The first
and second polypeptide chains of the bi-speeific monovalcnt Fc y are
covalently bonded to one another, for example by disulfide bonding of cysteine
residues located within each polypeptide chain. The first and third polypeptide chains
are covalently bonded to one another, for example by disulfide bonding of cysteine
residues located within each polypeptide chain. The first and second polypeptide
.21.
chains each n an Antigen Binding Domain of a Light Chain Variable Domain,
an Antigen Binding Domain of a Heavy Chain Variable Domain and a
dimerization Domain. An ening linker peptide (Linker 1) separates the
Antigen Binding Domain of the Light Chain Variable Domain from the Antigen
Binding Domain of the Heavy Chain Variable Domain. The Antigen Binding
Domain of the Light Chain Variable Domain of the first polypeptide chain interacts
with the Antigen Binding Domain of the Heavy Chain Variable Domain of the second
polypeptide chain in order to form a first functional antigen binding site that is
specific for the first antigen (i.e., either gpA33 or CD3). Likewise, the Antigen
Binding Domain of the Light Chain Variable Domain of the second polypeptide chain
interacts with the Antigen Binding Domain of the Heavy Chain Variable Domain of
the first polypeptide chain in order to form a second functional n binding site
that is c for the second antigen (i.e., cithcr gpA33 or CD3, depending upon the
identity of the first antigen). Thus, the selection of the Antigen Binding Domain of
the Light Chain Variable Domain and the n Binding Domain of the Heavy
Chain le Domain of the first and second polypeptide chains are coordinated,
such that the two polypeptide chains collectively comprise Antigen Binding Domains
of light and Heavy Chain Variable Domains capable of binding to gpA33 and CD3.
The first and third polypeptide chains each contain a cysteine-containing peptide
(Peptide 1) SEQ ID NO:39: and some or all of the CH2 Domain and/or some or all of
the CH3 Domain of a complete immunoglobulin Fc Domain and a cysteine-
containing peptide. The some or all of the CH2 Domain and/or the some or all of the
CH3 Domain ate to form the immunoglobulin Fc Domain of the bi-specific
monovalent Fc ies of the present invention. The first and third polypeptide
chains of the bi-specific monovalent Fc diabodies of the present invention are
covalently bonded to one another, for example by disulfide bonding of cysteine
residues located within the cysteine-containing e of the polypeptide chains.
The formation of heterodimers of the first and second polypeptide chains of
the bi-spccific monovalent diabody or bi-specific monovalent Fc diabody can be
driven by the heterodimerization domains. Such s include GVEPKSC (SEQ
ID NO:54) (or VE PKSC; SEQ ID NO:55) on one polypeptide chain and GFNRGEC
(SEQ ID NO:56) (or ; SEQ ID NO:57) on the other polypeptide chain
(U82007/0004909). Alternatively, such domains can be engineered to n coils
of opposing charges. The heterodimerization Domain of one of the polypeptide
chains comprises a sequence of at least six, at least seven or at least eight positively
charged amino acids, and the dimerization Domain of the other polypeptide
chain comprises a sequence of at least six, at least seven or at least eight negatively
charged amino acids. For example, the first or the second heterodimerization Domain
may comprise a sequence comprising eight vely charged amino acids and the
other of the heterodimerization domains may comprise a sequence comprising eight
negatively charged amino acids. The positively charged amino acid may be lysine,
arginine, histidine, etc. and/or the vely charged amino acid may be glutamic
acid, aspartic acid, etc. The positively charged amino acid is preferably lysine and/or
the negatively d amino acid is preferably glutamic acid.
The bi-specific monovalent diabodics and bi-specific monovalent Fc
diabodics of the present invention are engineered so that such first and second
polypeptide chains covalently bond to one another via cysteine residues along their
. Such cysteine residues may be introduced into the intervening linker that
separates the VL and VB domains of the polypeptides. Alternatively, and more
ably, a second peptide (Linker 2) is introduced into each polypeptide chain, for
example, at the amino-terminus of the polypeptide chains or at a position that places
Linker 2 n the heterodimerization Domain and the n Binding Domain of
the Light Chain Variable Domain or Heavy Chain Variable Domain.
As indicated above, gpA33 is expressed by colorectal cells. Antibodies
capable of immunospccifically binding to gpA33 are capablc of binding to such cells.
CD3 is expressed on T cells. Thus, antibodies capable of immunospecifieally binding
to both gpA33 and CD3 are capable of targeting T cells to colorectal and other cancer
cells that express gpA33 (e.g., colon carcinoma cells, pancreatic cancer cells, etc.) and
of thus providing an improved therapy for such cancers.
]. Preferred gpA33 x CD3 Bi-Specific Monovalent Diabodies of the Present
Invention
A. gpA33 x CD3 Bi-Specifie Monovalent Diabodies
One ment of the present invention s to gpA33 X CD3 bi-speeific
lent ics that are composed of a first polypeptide chain and a second
polypeptide chain, whose sequences permit the ptide chains to covalently bind
to each other to form a covalently-associated complex that is capable of
simultaneously binding to both gpA33 and CD3.
The first polypeptide chain of preferred gpA33 x CD3 bi-specific
lent diabodies comprise, in the N-terminal to C-tenninal direction, an N—
terminus, the VL Domain of a monoclonal dy capable of binding to either CD3
or gpA33 (i.e., either VLcm or VLgpAgg), a first intervening spacer peptide (Linker 1),
a VH Domain of a monoclonal antibody capable of binding to either gpA33 (if such
first polypeptide chain contains VLcm) or CD3 (if such first polypeptide chain
contains VLgpkzg), a cysteine-containing second intervening spacer peptide (Linker 2),
a heterodimer—promoting Domain and a C-terminus (Figure 1).
The second ptide chain of preferred gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific
monovalent diabodies comprises, in the N-terminal to C-terminal direction, an N-
teiminus, a VL Domain of a monoclonal dy capable of binding to either gpA33
or CD3 (i.e., either VLgpA33 or VLcm, depending upon the VL Domain selected for
the first polypeptide chain of the diabody), an intervening linker peptide (Linker 1), a
VI-I Domain of a monoclonal antibody capable of g to either CD3 (if such
second polypeptide chain contains VLgpA33) or CD3 (if such second polypeptide chain
contains VLCDg), a cysteine-containing spacer peptide (Linker 2), a heterodimer-
promoting Domain, and a C-terminus (Figure 1).
The VL Domain of the first polypeptide chain of preferred gpA33 X CD3 bi-
speeifie lent diabodics interacts with the VH Domain of the second
polypeptide chain of preferred gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabodies in
order to form a first functional antigen binding site that is specific for a first antigen
(i.e., either CD3 or . Likewise, the VL Domain of the second polypeptide
chain cts with the VH Domain of the first polypeptide chain in order to form a
second functional antigen binding site that is specific for a second antigen (i.e., either
gpA33 or CD3, depending upon the identity of the first antigen). Thus, the selection
of the VL and VH s of the first and second polypeptide chains are nated,
such that the two polypeptide chains of preferred gpA33 x CD3 bi-specific
monovalent diabodies tively comprise VL and VH domains capable of binding
to gpA33 and CD3 (i.e., they comprise VLcm/VHcm and VLgpAgg/VngAgg).
Most preferably, the length of the intervening linker peptide (Linker l, which
separates such VL and VB domains) is selected to substantially or completely t
the VL and VH domains of the polypeptide chain from binding to one another. Thus
the VL and VH domains of the first polypeptide chain are substantially or completely
incapable of binding to one r. Likewise, the VL and VH domains of the second
polypeptide chain are substantially or completely incapable of binding to one another.
A preferred intervening spacer e (Linker 1) has the ce (SEQ ID N021):
GGGSGGGG.
The cysteine-containing second intervening spacer peptide (Linker 2) will
contain 1, 2, 3 or more cysteines. A preferred cysteine-containing spacer peptide
r 2) has the sequence is SEQ ID NO:2: GGCGGG.
The heterodimer-promoting domains of the first and second polypeptides
differ from one another and are designed to associate with one another so as to
promote ation of the first and second polypeptide chains. Thus, in a preferred
embodiment, one of these polypeptide chains will be engineered to contain a
heterodimer—promoting “E-eoil” Domain (SEQ ID NO:3):
EVAALEKEVAALEKEVAALEKEVAALEK
whose residues will form a negative charge at pH 7, while the other of the two
polypeptide chains will be engineered to contain a heterodimer-promoting “K-coil”
Domain (SEQ ID NO:4):
EVAALEEEVAALEEEVAALEEEVAALEE
whose residues will form a positive charge at pH 7. The presence of such charged
domains promotes association between the first and second polypeptides, and thus
fosters heterodimerization. It is rial which coil is provided to which chain, as
long as the coils ed on the first and second polypeptide chains differ so as to
foster heterodimerization between such chains.

3. The gpA33 x CD3 Bi-Speeific Monovalent Diabody Having
An Albumin-Binding Domain (ABD) (“DART-2 w/ABD”)
In another embodiment of the invention, the gpA33 x CD3 bi-specific
monovalent y will comprise an Albumin-Binding Domain (“ABD”) (gpA33 x
CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabody with ABD”).
As disclosed in WO 2012/018687, in order to e the in vivo
pharmacokinetic properties of diabody molecules, the molecules may be modified to
contain a polypeptide portion of a serum-binding protein at one or more of the termini
of the diabody le. Most preferably, such ptide portion of a serum-
binding protein will be led at the C-terminus of the diabody molecule. A
particularly preferred polypeptide portion of a serum-binding protein for this purpose
is the albumin binding domain (ABD) from streptococcal protein G. The albumin
binding domain 3 (ABD3) of protein G of Streptococcus strain 0148 is particularly
prcfcrrcd.
The albumin binding domain 3 (ABD3) of n G of Streptococcus strain
G148 ts of 46 amino acid residues forming a stable thrcc-hclix bundle and has

Biol. Chem. 277(10):8ll4-8120). Albumin is the most abundant protein in plasma
and has a half-life of 19 days in humans. Albumin ses several small molecule
binding sites that permit it to non-covalently bind to other proteins and thereby extend
their serum ives.
Thus, the first ptide chain or second ptide chain of a gpA33 x
CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabody having an Albumin-Binding Domain contains a
third linker (Linker 3), which separates the E-eoil (or K-coil) of such polypeptide
chain from the Albumin-Binding Domain. A preferred sequence for such Linker 3 is
GGGS (SEQ ID NO:32) or GGGNS (SEQ ID NO:33). A preferred Albumin-
Binding Domain (ABD) has the amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO:34):

B. The gpA33 x CD3 Bi-Specific Monovalent Diabodies Having An
IgG Fc Domain (“DART-2 w/Fc”)
In a further embodiment, the invention provides gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific
monovalent diabodies having an IgG Fc Domain. Such diabodies are accordingly
referred to herein as “gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent Fc diabodies.” The PC
Domain of the Fc diabodies of the present invention may be either a complete Fc
region (e.g., a complete lgG Fc region) or only a fragment of a complete Fc region.
Although the Fc Domain of the bi-speciflc monovalent Fc ies of the present
invention may possess the ability to bind to one or more Fc receptors (e.g., FcyR(s)),
morc prcfcrably such Fc Domain will cause rcduccd binding to FcyRIA (CD64),
FcleiA (CD32A), FC’yRilB (CD328), FcyRillA (CD16a) or FcleilB (CDl6b)
(relative to the binding exhibited by a wild-type Fc region) or will substantially
eliminate the ability of such Fc Domain to bind to such receptor(s). The PC Domain
of the bi-specific monovalent Fc diabodies of the present invention may include some
or all of the CH2 Domain and/or some or all of the CH3 Domain of a complete Fc
, or may comprise a variant CH2 and/or a variant CH3 sequence (that may
include, for e, one or more ions and/or one or more deletions with respect
to the CH2 or CH3 s of a complete Fc region). The Fc Domain of the bi-
spccific monovalent Fc diabodics of the present invention may comprise non-Fe
polypeptide portions, or may comprise portions of non-naturally complete Fc s,
or may comprise turally occurring orientations of CH2 and/or CH3 domains
(such as, for example, two CH2 domains or two CH3 domains, or in the N-terminal to
C-terminal ion, a CH3 Domain linked to a CH2 Domain, etc.).
In a first ment, denoted as on 1” and shown in Figure 2A, the
first polypeptide chain of an exemplary gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent Fc
diabody will comprise, in the N-terminal to C-terminal direction, an N-terminus, the
VL Domain of a monoclonal antibody capable of binding to either gpA33 or CD3
(i.e., either VLgpAgg or VLCD3), an ening spacer peptide (Linker l), a VH
Domain of a monoclonal antibody capable of binding to either gpA33 (if such first
polypeptide chain contains VLcm) or CD3 (if such first polypeptide chain ns
VLgpmg), a cysteine—containing second intervening spacer peptide (Linker 2), a
heterodimer-promoting , a spacer peptide (Linker 5), a cysteine-containing
e (Peptide 1), an IgG Fc Domain rably, all or a portion of the CH2 and
CH3 domains of an antibody Fc region), and a C-terminus.
In a second embodiment, denoted as “Version 2” and shown in Figure 28,
the first ptide chain of an exemplary gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent Fc
diabody will comprise, in the N-terminal to C-terminal direction, an N-terminus, a
cysteine-containing peptide de 1), an IgG Fc Domain rably, all or a
portion of the CH2 and CH3 domains of an antibody Fc region), an intervening spacer
peptide (Linker 4); the VL Domain of a monoclonal antibody capable of binding to
either gpA33 or CD3 (i.e., either VLgpA33 or Vchg), an intervening spacer peptide
(Linker 1), a VB Domain of a monoclonal antibody capable of binding to either
gpA33 (if such first polypeptide chain contains VLcm) or CD3 (if such first
polypeptide chain contains VLgPA33), a cysteine-containing second intervening spacer
peptide r 2), a heterodimer-promoting Domain, and a C-terminus.
] Preferably, in either embodiment, the Fc Domain of the first polypeptide
chain will cause reduced binding to FcyRIA (CD64), FcyRIIA ), FcyRIIB
(CD328), FcyRIIIA (CDl6a) or FcyRIlIB (CD16b) (relative to the binding exhibited
by a wild-type Fc region) or will substantially eliminate the ability of such Fc Domain
to bind to such receptor(s). Fe variants and mutant forms capable of mediating such
altered binding are well known in the art and include amino acid substitutions at
positions 234 and 235, a substitution at position 265 or a substitution at position 297
(see, for example, US Patent No. 5,624,821, herein incorporated by reference). In a
preferred embodiment the CH2 and CH3 Domain includes a tution at position
234 with alanine and 235 with alanine.
The second polypeptide chain of such exemplary gpA33 x CD3 bi-specific
lent Fc diabodies (Version 1 and Version 2) will comprise, in the N-terminal
to C-terminal direction, an N-terminus, a VL Domain of a monoclonal antibody
capable of binding to either gpA33 or CD3 (1'.e._, cithcr VLgng or VLcm, depending
upon the VL Domain selected for the first polypeptide chain of the diabody), an
intervening linker e (Linker l), a VH Domain of a monoclonal antibody e
of binding to either CD3 (if such second polypeptide chain contains VLgpAgg) or CD3
(if such second polypeptide chain contains VLcm), a cysteine-containing spacer
peptide (Linker 2), a heterodimer-promoting Domain (preferably a K-coil Domain),
and a C-terminus.
The exemplary gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent Fc ies (Version
1 and Version 2) will additionally se a third ptide chain that will
comprise, in the N-terminal to C-terminal direction, an N-terminus, a cysteine-
containing peptide (Peptide 1), an IgG Fc Domain rably, all or a portion of the
CH2 and CH3 domains of an antibody Fc region) having the same isotypc as that of
the Fc Domain of the first polypeptide chain and a C-terminus. Preferably, the Fc
Domain of the third polypeptide chain will cause reduced binding to FcyRIA (CD64),
A (CD32A), FcleIB (CD328), FcyRIIIA (CDl6a) or FcyRIIIB (CD16b)
(relative to the binding ted by a wild-type Fc region) or will substantially
eliminate the ability of such Fe Domain to bind to such receptor(s), as discussed
above, with respect to the first polypeptide chain of the exemplary gpA33 X CD3 bi-
specific lent Fe ies.
The optionally present intervening spacer peptide (Linker 4) will preferably
comprise the amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO:37): APSSS, and more preferably
have the amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO:38): APSSSPME.
The cysteine-containing peptide (Peptide l) of the first and third polypeptide
chains may be comprised of the same amino acid sequence or of ent amino acid
sequences, and will n 1, 2, 3 or more cysteine residues. A particularly red
Peptide 1 has the amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO:39): DKTHTCPPCP.
The intervening spacer peptide (Linker 1) preferably has the sequence of
SEQ ID NO:1_, described above. The cysteine-containing second intervening spacer
pcptidc (Linker 2) preferably has the sequence of SEQ ID NO:2, described above.
The heterodimer-promoting Domain of the first and second polypeptide
chains of the gpA33 x CD3 bi-specific monovalent Fc diabodies will preferably by
the above-described E-coil Domain (SEQ ID NO:3) and K-coil Domain (SEQ ID
NO:4), and will be selected so that one of such polypeptide chains possesses an E-coil
Domain, s the other possesses a K-coil Domain, as discussed above.
A preferred spacer e (Linker 5) has the sequence GGG.
The CH2 and/or CH3 domains of the first and third polypeptides need not be
identical, and advantageously are modified to foster complexing between the two
polypeptides. For example, an amino acid substitution (preferably a substitution with
an amino acid comprising a bulky side group forming a ‘knob’, e.g., tryptophan) can
be introduced into the CH2 or CH3 Domain such that steric interference will prevent
interaction with a rly mutated Domain and will obligate the mutated Domain to
pair with a Domain into which a complementary, or accommodating mutation has
been engineered,i.e., ‘the hole’ (e.g., a substitution with glycine). Such sets of
mutations can be engineered into any pair of polypeptides comprising the bi-specific
monovalent Fc diabody molecule, and further, engineered into any portion of the
polypeptides chains of said pair. Methods of protein engineeri ng to favor
heterodimerization over homodimerization are well known in the art, in ular
with respect to the engineering of immunoglobulin-like les, and are
encompassed herein (see e.g., Ridgway et al. (1996) “‘Knobs-Into-Holes’
Engineering Of Antibody CH3 Domains For Heavy Chain Heterodimerization,”
Protein Engr. 9:617-621, Atwell et al. (1997) “Stable Heterodimers From
Remodeling The Domain Interface Of A Homodimer Using A Phage Display
Library,” J. Mol. Biol. 270: 26-35, and Xie et al. (2005) “A New Format Of
Bispecific dy: Highly Efficient dimerization, Expression And Tumor Cell
Lysis,” J. Immunol. Methods -101; each of which is hereby incorporated herein
by reference in its entirety). ably the ‘knob’ is engineered into the CH2-CH3
domains of the first polypeptide chain and the ‘hole’ is ered into the CH2-CH3
domains of the third polypeptide chain. Thus, the ‘knob’ will help in preventing the
first ptide chain from homodimerizing via its CH2 and/or CH3 domains. As
the third polypeptide chain preferably contains the ‘hole’ substitution it will
dimerizc with the first polypeptide chain as well as homodimcrizc with itself.
A preferred knob is created by ing an Fe Domain of a native lgG Fc region to
contain the modification T366W. A preferred hole is created by modifying an Fe
Domain of a native lgG Fc region to contain the ation T3668, L368A and
Y407V. To aid in purifying the third polypeptide chain homodimer from the final bi-
specific monovalent Fe diabody comprising the first, second and third polypeptide
, the protein A binding site of the CH2 and CH3 domains of the third
polypeptide chain is preferably mutated by amino acid tution at on 435
(H435R). To aid in purifying the third polypeptide chain homodimer from the final
bi-specific monovalent Fc diabody sing the first, second and third polypeptide
, the protein A binding site of the CH2 and CH3 domains of the third
polypeptide chain is preferably mutated by amino acid substitution. Thus the third
polypeptide chain homodimer will not bind to protein A, whereas the bi-specific
monovalent Fc diabody will retain its ability to bind protein A via the protein A
binding site on the first polypeptide chain.
A preferred sequence for the CH2 and CH3 domains of an antibody Fe
Domain present in the first polypeptide chain is (SEQ ID NO:40):

CD3 bi-specific monovalcnt Fe diabodics of the invention should be stored at between
2 and 8°C in their original container and the molecules should be stered within
12 hours, preferably within 6 hours, within 5 hours, within 3 hours, or within 1 hour
afier being reconstituted. In an alternative embodiment, gpA33 X CD3 eific
monovalcnt diabodies or gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent Fe diabodics of the
invention are supplied in liquid form in a hermetically sealed container indicating the
quantity and concentration of the molecule, fusion protein, or conjugated molecule.
Preferably, the liquid form of such bi-specific lcnt diabodics or bi-speeific
monovalent Fe diabodies is supplied in a hermetically sealed container in which the
molecules are present at a concentration of least 1 ug/ml, more ably at least 2.5
rig/ml, at least 5 rig/ml, at least 10 ug/ml, at least 50 ug/ml, or at least 100 [Lg/ml.
The amount of gpA33 X CD3 bi-speeif1c monovalcnt diabodics or gpA33 X
CD3 bi-speciflc monovalcnt Fc diabodies of the invention which will be effective in
the treatment, prevention or amelioration of one or more symptoms associated with a
disorder can be determined by standard clinical techniques. The precise dose to be
employed in the formulation will also depend on the route of administration, and the
seriousness of the condition, and should be d according to the judgment of the
practitioner and each patient’s stances. Effective doses may be extrapolated
from dose-response curves d from in vitro or animal model test systems.
For gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabodies or gpA33 X CD3 bi-
speeific monovalcnt Fc diabodics encompassed by the invention, the dosage

Fc diabodics of the invention are used in combination with other therapeutic
compositions and the dosage administered to a patient are lower than when such bi-
specific monovalent diabodies or bi-specific monovalent Fc diabodics are used as a
single agent therapy.
In a specific embodiment, it may be desirable to administer the
pharmaceutical compositions of the invention y to the area in need of treatment;
this may be achieved by, for example, and not by way of tion, local infusion, by
injection, or by means of an implant, said implant being of a porous, non-porous, or
gelatinous material, ing membranes, such as sialastic membranes, or fibers.
Preferably, when administering a molecule of the invention, care must be taken to use
materials to which the molecule does not absorb.
] In another embodiment, the compositions can be delivered in a vesicle, in
ular a liposome (See Langer (1990) “New Methods OfDrug Delivery, " Science
249:1527-1533); Treat et al., in Liposomes in the Therapy of ious e and
Cancer, Lopez-Berestein and Fidler (eds), Liss, New York, pp. 353- 365 (1989);

In yet another embodiment, the compositions can be delivered in a controlled
release or sustained release system. Any technique known to one of skill in the art
can be used to produce sustained release formulations comprising one or more
molecules of the invention. See, e.g., US. Patent No. 4,526,938; PCT publication

pyrrolidone), poly(vinyl alcohol), polyacrylamide, poly(ethylene ), etides
(PLA), actide-co-glycolides) (PLGA), and polyorthoesters. In yet another
embodiment, a controlled release system can be placed in proximity of the therapeutic
target (e. g., the lungs), thus requiring only a fraction of the systemic dose (see, e.g.,
Goodson, in MEDICAL APPLICATIONS OF CONTROLLED RELEASE, supra, vol. 2, pp.
115-138 (1984)). In r embodiment, polymeric compositions useful as
controlled release implants are used according to Dunn et al. (See US. 5,945,155).
This particular method is based upon the therapeutic effect of the in situ controlled
release of the ive material from the polymer system. The implantation can
generally occur anywhere within the body of the patient in need of therapeutic
treatment. In another embodiment, a non-polymeric sustained delivery system is
used, y a non-polymeric implant in the body of the subject is used as a drug
delivery system. Upon implantation in the body, the c solvent of the implant
will dissipate, disperse, or leach fi'om the composition into surrounding tissue fluid,
and the non-polymeric material will lly coagulate or precipitate to form a solid,
microporous matrix (See US. 5,888,533).
Controlled release systems are discussed in the review by Langer (1990,
"New Methods Of Drug Delivery, " Science 249:1527-1533). Any technique known
to one of skill in the art can be used to produce sustained e ations
comprising one or more therapeutic agents of the invention. See, e.g., US. Patent No.

In a specific embodiment where the composition of the invention is a nucleic
acid encoding a bi-speeifie monovalent diabody or bi-specific monovalent Fe diabody
of the invention, the nucleic acid can be administered in vivo to e expression of
its encoded bi-speeific monovalent diabody or bi-specific lent Fe diabody, by
constructing it as part of an appropriate nucleic acid expression vector and
administering it so that it becomes intracellular, e.g., by use of a retroviral vector (See
US. Patent No. 4,980,286), or by direct injection, or by use of mieroparticle
bombardment (e.g., a gene gun; Biolistic, Dupont), or coating with lipids or cell-
surfaee receptors or transfeeting , or by administering it in linkage to a
homeobox-like peptide which is known to enter the nucleus (See e.g., Joliot et a].
(1991) “Antennapedia Homeobox Peptide Regulates Neural Morphogenesis, " Proc.
Natl. Acad. Sci. (U.S.A.) 88:]864-1868), etc. Alternatively, a nucleic acid can be
uced intracellularly and orated within host cell DNA for expression by
homologous recombination.
Treatment of a t with a therapeutically or prophylactically effective
amount of the gpA33 x CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabodies or gpA33 x CD3 bi-
specifie lent Fe diabodies of the invention can include a single treatment or,
preferably, can include a series of treatments. In a preferred example, a subject is
treated with molecules of the invention one time per week for between about 1 to 10
weeks, preferably between 2 to 8 weeks, more preferably between about 3 to 7 weeks,
and even more preferably for about 4, 5, or 6 weeks. In other embodiments, the
pharmaceutical compositions of the invention are stered once a day, twice a
day, or three times a day. In other embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions are
administered once a week, twice a week, once every two weeks, once a month, once
every six weeks, once every two months, twice a year or once per year. It will also be
appreciated that the effective dosage of the molecules used for treatment may increase
or decrease over the course of a particular treatment.
] Having now lly described the invention, the same will be more readily
understood through reference to the following examples, which are provided by way
of illustration and are not intended to be limiting of the t invention unless
specified.

The gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabodies are heterodimers

gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent Fc ies arc hctcrotrimcrs composed of
three polypeptide chains (one chain of each recited amino acid sequence). s
for forming bi-specific monovalent diabodies are provided in , WO
2008/157379, , , and W0

The control CD3 x FITC bi-specific monovalent diabody was found to be
capable of simultaneously binding to CD3 and to FITC. The above-described gpA33
X CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabodies and gpA33 x CD3 bi-specific monovalent Fc
diabodies were found to be capable of simultaneously binding to gpA33 and to CD3.
In order to demonstrate such simultaneous g, the gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific
monovalent diabody DART-l was incubated in the presence of a soluble CD3
fragment that had been immobilized to a solid support. The detection of binding was
assessed by the ty of immobilized antibodies to additionally bind gpA33. The
results confirm the capacity of the above-described gpA33 X CD3 cific
lent diabodies and gpA33 X CD3 bi-spccific monovalent Fc diabodies to
e simultaneous binding to gpA33 and CD3 (Figure 3).
Example 3
gpA33 x CD3 Bi-Specific Monovalent Diabodies Are Cytotoxic to Cancer Cells
] The ability of the gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabodies of the
present invention to treat cancer was illustrated by incubating colorectal or pancreatic
cancer cells in the presence of the gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific lent DART-1 and
either human PBMC (E:T = 25:1) or activated human T cells (E:T = 10:1). gpA33 x
CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabody DART-1 exhibited potent redirected killing
ability with concentrations required to achieve 50% maximal activity (EC50) in the
sub-ng/mL to around 1 ng/mL range. In contrast, cytotoxicity was not observed when
gpA33-negative cancer cell lines (e.g., HCT116) were ed. The results of the
investigation are shown in Figure 4A (colorectal cancer stem-like cells (Colon CSCL
cells), Figure 4B (C010205 colorectal , and Figure 4C (ASPC-l pancreatic
cancer cells). Results are summarized in Table 3.

T cell Activation in the ce of gpA33 x CD3 Bi-Specific Monovalent
Diabodies
In order to further demonstrate the ability of the diabodies of the t
invention to treat cancer, resting human T cells were incubated with the gpA33 X CD3
bi-specific monovalent DART-l in the presence or absence of cancer cells (c010205
or ASPC-l). To characterize T cell activation during gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific
monovalent diabody 1)-mcdiated redirected killing process, T cells from
redirected killing assays were stained for the T cell activation marker CD25 and
analyzed by FACS. CD25 was uprcgulatcd in CD8 (Figures 5A-SB) and CD4
(Figures SD-SE) T cells in a ependent manner indicating that the gpA33 x
CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabodies induced T cell activation in the s of
redirected killing. Conversely, in the absence of target cells there was no activation of
CD8 (Figure 5C) or CD4 (Figure 5F) T cells indicating the gp-A33 x CD3 diabodies
do not activate T cells in the absence of target cells. Likewise, CD8 or CD4 T cells
were not activated when incubated with target cells and a control cific
monovalent diabody (Control DART) (Figures 5A-SB, and Figures 5D-5F,
respectively) indicating the ement of cross-linking the T cell and target cell with
the gpA33 x CD3 bi-spccific monovalent diabodics.

Murine uman gpA33 Variable Domain Sequences and gpA33 x CD3 Bi-
Specific lent Diabody (DART-2) Having Humanized Anti-Human gpA33
Variable Domain Sequences
As discussed above, the gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabody
DART-1 contains VLgpAgg and VngAgg domains of a murine monoclonal antibody,
whereas the gpA33 X CD3 cific monovalent diabody DART-2 contains
humanized VLgpAgg and humanized VngA33 domains of the same murine antibody. In
order to demonstrate the ability of the humanized “43%” and Vl-lwm domains to
promote T cell ing to gpA33-expressing cancer cells, cancer cells that s
gpA33 were incubated in the presence of resting T cells (LDH assay; E:T = 10:1) in
the presence of either DART-1, DART-1 or a control bi-spccific monovalent diabody
(Control DART). The s of this analysis (shown in Figures 6A-6D) demonstrate
that DART-1 and DART-2 mediated equivalent cytotoxicity for SW948 colorectal
adenocarcinoma cells (Figure 6A) and c010205 cells (Figure 6B). DART-l and
DART-2 both mediated cytotoxicity of a luciferase expressing C010205 cell line
which was stably transfected with firefly luciferase gene (luc2) (ColoZOS-Luc), as
measured by decreased luminescence (Figure 6C). r DART-1 nor DART-2
mediated cytotoxicity of the gpA33-negative cancer cell line, HCTl 16 (Figure 6D).
As shown in Table 4, DART-l and DART-2 exhibited similar equivalent bioactivity
against multiple tumor cell lines.

] As shown above, the humanized VLgMgg and humanized VngA33 domains of
the gpA33 X CD3 bi-specific monovalent diabody DART-2 mediate the cytotoxicity

SPR Analysis of gpA33 x CD3 Bi-Specific lent Fc Diabody (DART-l
w/Fc Version 1) Binding to Human and Cynomolgus Monkey CD3 and gpA33
gpA33 x CD3 bi-specific Fe diabody (DART-2 w/Fc Version 1) binding to
soluble versions of human and cynomolgus monkey CD3 receptor was analyzed by
SPR on a BIAcore 3000 biosensor (GE, Healthcare). Receptors were immobilized on
the CMS sensor chip according to the procedure recommended by the cturer.
Briefly, the carboxyl groups on the sensor chip surface were activated with an
injection of a solution containing 0.2M N-ethyl-N-(3dietylamino-propyl)
carbodiimide and 0.05M N-hydroxy-suceinimide. Soluble CD3 receptor (1 rig/ml) was
then injected over the activated CMS surface in lOmM sodium-acetate, pH 5.0, at
flow rate 5 [LL/min, followed by 1 M ethanolamine for vation.
The soluble versions of lgus and human CD3 employed in such
analysis were expressed in mammalian cells as a CD38 / CD36 heterodimer, stabilized
by oppositely charged heterodimer-promoting E-coil and K-coil sequences at their C-
termini. The soluble cynomolgus CD38 contained the first 118 amino acid residues of
lgus monkey CD38, with the V35 allele (FN18+) ed by the above-
deseribed E-coil Domain (SEQ ID NO:3) at the carboxy terminus. The amino acid

in ian CHO-S cells and purified using Ni SEPHAROSE®.
Binding experiments were performed in HBS—EP buffer, which ns
10mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 3mM EDTA and 0.005% P20 surfactant.
Binding of DART-2 w/Fc Version 1 was analyzed (in duplicate) at concentrations of
0, 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50 and 100 nM, injected for 120 sec at a flow rate of 30 uL/min.
Regeneration of the immobilized receptor surfaces was performed by pulse
injection of 10mM e, pH 1.5. Reference curves were obtained by injection of
each dilution of DART-2 w/Fc over the treated e with no immobilized protein.
Binding curves at zero concentration were subtracted as a blank. KD values were
determined by a global fit of binding curves to the Langmuir 1:1 binding model
(BIAevaluationTM sofiware v4.1).
The SPR analysis of gpA33 x CD3 cific Fc y (DART-2 w/Fc
Version 1) binding to human and cynomolgus monkey CD3 and gpA33 demonstrated
a substantial similarity for the molecules from the two different species (Figures 14A—
14B; Figures ISA-15B). Table 8 provides the equilibrium dissociation constants
(KDs) calculated by global fit to a 1:1 Langmuir model y and kinetic nts
for DART-2 w/Fc ctions. The KD values of DART-2 w/Fc Version 1 for
human and cynomolgus monkey CD3 are nearly identical at 23 and 26 nM,
respectively, despite some difference in the l binding responses n the
two antigens. Random orientation of antigens with different amino acid sequences
directly immobilized on the surface can result in different densities of available
binding sites on the surface. The KD values for the interaction of DART-2 w/Fc
Version 1 with human and monkey gpA33 are 2.2nM and 12nM, respectively (Table
8). The difference in affinity is the result ofa relatively small decrease in association
rate constant and increase in dissociation rate constant for the interaction of DART-2
w/Fe Version 1 with cynomolgus monkey gpA33 (Table 8). The data are averages of
three independent experiments in duplicates (SD = rd deviation; h, human;
cyno. cynomolgus monkey).
