Description

CYSSO CONJUGATED GLOBULINS CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED ATIONS This application claims priority to US. Provisional Application No. 62/182,020, ?led June 19, 2015, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
SEQUENCE LISTING The instant application contains a Sequence Listing which has been submitted electronically in ASCII format and is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. The ASCII copy, d on June 16, 2016, is named 104018.000953_SL.txt and is 1 bytes in size.
TECHNICAL FIELD ed herein are CysSO conjugated immunoglobulins and methods of creating the same.
BACKGROUND The utility of monoclonal antibodies extends from basic research to therapeutic and stic applications. The ability to conjugate antibodies to functional agents extends their functionality even further. The manufacture of conjugated antibodies usually involves conjugation of a linker, drug, or other functional agent to reactive lysine or cysteine residues on the heavy (HC) and light (LC) chains of a monoclonal antibody (mAb). Lysine conjugation is typically mediated by succinimide (NHS)-based or isothiocyanate—based chemistry. Given the number of exposed lysines on the surface of an dy, amine—based conjugation ches result in multiple s being modi?ed, though not all lysine es are modi?ed to the same extent. Therefore, the ?nal product is a heterogeneous mixture of mAbs with a distribution of drug-to-antibody (DAR) ratios.
Most cysteines within an antibody are involved in either inter- or intra—chain disul?de bonds. Conjugation to cysteines thus es at least partial reduction of the antibody.
Like lysine-based conjugation, cysteine-based conjugation results in a heterogeneous mixture of conjugated dies differing in drug load and conjugation site. Each species of conjugated antibody may have distinct properties, which in turn could lead to wide variation of in viva pharmacokinetic ties. Additionally, such heterogeneity can present challenges in manufacturing of the conjugated antibody.
Disclosed herein are methods for generating a conjugated immunoglobulin, the methods comprising: decapping a cysteine at amino acid position 80 ("CysSO") in a light chain variable region of an immunoglobulin derived from rabbit, wherein the immunoglobulin comprises a heavy chain variable region and the light chain variable region; and conjugating a thiol-reactive compound to the Cys80, wherein the thiol-reactive compound ses a thiol- reactive group.

Full—length immunoglobulin "light chains" (about 25 Kd or 214 amino acids) are encoded by a variable region gene at the NH2-terminus (about 110 amino acids) and a kappa or lambda constant region gene at the COOH - terminus. Full-length immunoglobulin "heavy chains" (about 50 Kd or 446 amino acids), are similarly encoded by a variable region gene (about 116 amino acids) and one of the other aforementioned constant region genes, e.g., gamma (encoding about 330 amino . "Immunoglobulins" include: (a) immunoglobulin polypeptides, 116., polypeptides of the globulin family that contain an antigen binding site that speci?cally binds to a speci?c antigen (e.g., MSLN, CA9, TEM1, etc), including all globulin isotypes (IgG, IgA, IgE, IgM, IgD, and IgY), classes (e.g. IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, IgA2), subclasses, and various monomeric and polymeric forms of each isotype, unless otherwise speci?ed; and (b) conservatively substituted variants of such globulin ptides that immunospecifically bind to the antigen (e.g., MSLN, CA9, TEM1, etc.) globulins are generally described in, for example, Harlow & Lane, Antibodies: A Laboratory Manual (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 1988).
One form of immunoglobulin disclosed herein constitutes the basic structural unit of an antibody, For example, an dy can include a tetramer and t of two identical pairs of immunoglobulin chains, each pair having one light chain and one heavy chain.
Generally, in each pair, the light chain and heavy chain variable regions are together responsible for binding to an antigen, and the constant regions are responsible for the antibody effector In addition to antibodies, immunoglobulins may exist in a variety of other forms including, for e: antigen-binding fragments or portions of an immunoglobulin, such as Fv, Fab, (Fab')2 and Fv fragments, and alternative antibody formats such as single chain immunoglobulins (scFV and scFab), diabodies, triabodies, tetrabodies, linear antibodies, and multispecifrc dies, to name a few.

As used herein, the term "immunospecifically" refers to the ability of an immunoglobulin to speci?cally bind to an antigen against which the immunoglobulin was generated and not specifically bind to other peptides or proteins. An immunoglobulin that immunospeci?cally binds to an n against which the immunoglobulin was generated may not bind to other polypeptides or proteins, or may bind to other polypeptides or proteins with a lower binding affinity than the antigen against which the immunoglobulin was generated as ined by, for example, immunoassays, BIAcore, or other assays known in the art. An globulin binds immunospeci?cally to an antigen against which the immunoglobulin was generated when it binds to the antigen with a higher binding affinity than to any cross-reactive n as determined using experimental techniques, such as, but not limited to, radioimmunoassays (RIA) and enzyme-linked imrnunosorbent assays s) (See, for example, Paul, ed., Fundamental Immunology, 2nd ed., Raven Press, New York, pages 332-336 (1989) for a discussion regarding antibody speci?city).
"Linker," as used , refers to a spacer, which may be a straight or branched chain, for connecting an immunoglobulin (through a thiol-reactive group on the unpaired Cys80) to a functional agent. Such linkers may be cleavable (e.g., acid labile or protease cleavable) or non-cleavable.
The term "monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody that is derived from a single cell clone, including any eukaryotic or prokaryotic cell clone, or a phage clone, and not the method by which it is produced. A monoclonal antibody displays a single binding specificity and affinity for a particular epitope. The term "monoclonal antibody" is not limited to antibodies produced through hybridoma technology.
"Native" refers to the wild type immunoglobulin sequence from the species in which the globulin is derived. For example, in embodiments wherein a Cys80 is present in the light chain variable region from the species from which it is derived, the CysSO is said be present in the native light chain variable region.

(a) A "reference ce" is a de?ned sequence used as a basis for sequence comparison. A reference sequence may be a subset of or the entirety of a specified sequence; for example, a segment of a full-length cDNA or gene sequence, or the complete cDNA or gene sequence. For polypeptides, exemplary lengths of the nce polypeptide ce include at least about 16 amino acids, at least about amino acids, at least about 25 amino acids, at least about 35 amino acids, at least about 50 amino acids, or at least about 100 amino acids. For nucleic acids, exemplary length of the reference nucleic acid sequence include at least about 50 nucleotides, at least about 60 nucleotides, at least about 75 nucleotides, at least about 100 nucleotides, or at least about 300 tides, or any integer thereabout or therebetween.

Exemplary comparison windows can be at least 20 contiguous nucleotides or amino acids in length, and optionally may be 30, 40, 50, 100, or longer. Those of skill in the art understand that to avoid a misleadingly high similarity to a reference sequence due to inclusion of gaps in the polynucleotide or polypeptide sequence a gap penalty is typically introduced and is subtracted from the number of matches.
(C) s of ent of sequences for comparison are well known in the art.
Optimal alignment of sequences for comparison may be conducted by the local homology algorithm of Smith and Waterman, Adv. Appl. Math, 2: 482, 1981, by the homology alignment algorithm ofNeedleman and Wunsch, J. Mol. Biol., 48: 443, 1970, by the search for similarity method of Pearson and Lipman, Proc. Natl.
Acad. Sci. USA, 8: 2444, 1988; by computerized entations of these algorithms, including, but not limited to: CLUSTAL in the PC/Gene program by igenetics, Mountain View, Calif, GAP, BESTFIT, BLAST, FASTA, and TFASTA in the Wisconsin Genetics re Package, Genetics Computer Group (GCG), 7 Science Dr., Madison, Wis, USA, the CLUSTAL program is well described by Higgins and Sharp, Gene, 7‘3: 237-244, 1988; Corpet, et al., Nucleic Acids Research, 16:881-90, 1988, Huang, et al., Computer Applications in the Biosciences, 8: 1-6, 1992; and Pearson, et al., s in Molecular Biology, 24:?- 331, 1994. The BLAST family of programs which may be used for database similarity searches includes: BLASTN for nucleotide query sequences against nucleotide database sequences; BLASTX for nucleotide query sequences against n database sequences, BLASTP for protein query sequences against protein database sequences, TBLASTN for protein query sequences against nucleotide database sequences, and TBLASTX for nucleotide query sequences against nucleotide database sequences. See, Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, Chapter 19, Ausubel, et al., Eds, Greene Publishing and Wiley-Interscience, New York, 1995.
New versions of the above programs or new programs altogether will undoubtedly become ble in the future, and may be used with the present disclosure. (d) "Percent identity" means the value determined by comparing two lly d ces over a comparison window, wherein the n of the polynucleotide or polypeptide sequence in the comparison window may comprise additions, substitutions, or deletions (i.e., gaps) as compared to the reference sequence (which does not comprise additions, substitutions, or deletions) for optimal alignment of the two sequences. The tage is ated by determining the number of positions at which the identical nucleic acid base or amino acid e occurs in both sequences to yield the number of matched positions, dividing the number of matched positions by the total number of positions in the window of comparison and multiplying the result by 100 to yield the percentage of sequence identity.

The following examples are provided to further describe some of the embodiments disclosed herein. The examples are intended to illustrate, not to limit, the disclosed embodiments.
EXAMPLES Example 1 — Exemplary Methods Generation ofrabbit mAbs speci?c to human TEM] ialin/CD248) Rabbit immunization: To generate rabbit mAbs speci?c to human TEMI (hTEMl), a soluble human endosialin extracellular domain-mouse Fc fusion protein was ed n endosialin/TE M1 extracellular domain fused to mouse IgG2b Fe"). The extracellular domain of hTEMl was cloned in-frame EcoRI/HpaI to pEF6-EK-IgG2b, which contained an enterokinase cleavage site followed by the murine IgG2b Fc gamma fragment.
CHO-K1 cells were ected with this construct and selected with 5 ug/mL blasticidin.
Secreted TEMl-Fc was electrophoresed on a 4-12% PAGE gel and Coomassie stained, followed by excision of the bands. The gel slices were emulsified in complete/incomplete nt, and injected into New Zealand White rabbits every 3 to 4 weeks, four injections. The spleen from a rabbit showing the best titers against hTEMl as assessed by ELISA was harvested for the generation of hybridomas.
Generation of hybridomas: Fusions were performed as follows: spleen cells (1.5-3 x 108) of immunized rabbits and the fusion partner 240E 12 were fused at a ratio of 2:1 with 50% PEG 4000 (EM Science, Cherry Hill, NJ) at 37°C in serum-free medium. The cells were plated in 48-well microtiter plates, at approximately 2x105 spleen cells per well, in medium with 15% FCS. After 72 hr, hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine (HAT) was added. Medium was changed every 5-6 days. Supernatants were screened by ELISA for the presence of antibody speci?c for TEM-l using TEMl-Fc coated plates and counter-screened against mouse Fc.
Supernatants from hybridomas were screened for hTEMl vity by ELISA and clone 12 was chosen for recombinant cloning.
Ampli?cation of anti-hTEMl 12 light and hea? chain variable regions: RNA was isolated from rabbit hybridoma 1—55-2 using the RNeasy mini kit n, Valencia, CA). Two ug RNA was used for RT-PCR using SuperScript III One-Step RT-PCR System with Platinum Taq High ty (Invitrogen). The rabbit variable heavy chain and full length light chain gene nts were ampli?ed using primer pairs N02937/N02898 and N02937/N02347 respectively (Table l).

Generation ofrabbit mAbs speci?c to human CA9 Rabbit Immunization: To generate rabbit antibodies speci?c to human CA9, human CA9 extracellular domain ("human CA9 extracellular domain" or "CA9-ECD") was recombinantly generated. Two b9 rabbits were immunized using CA9-ECD. Brie?y, the rabbits were subcutaneously injected with the antigens every 21 days. Each rabbit received 400 ug of CA9-ECD and Freund's te adjuvant (FCA) in the ?rst injection and 200 ug of CA9-ECD and Freund's Incomplete Adjuvant (FIA) in the subsequent boosts. The pre- and test—bleed were collected for the antibody titer testing.
The pre- and post-immunization blood was tested for CA9 binding using an -Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) as described herein. The bleeds were serial diluted and added to CA9-ECD protein-coated microplates. When the titer reached 00 after four injections, the rabbits were ?nally boosted by intravenous injection of 400 ug of CA9- ECD without adjuvant. Rabbit spleens were collected one week after the ?nal boosting. Up to 100 mL exsanguination bleeds were collected in the presence of anti-coagulant and the lymphocytes from spleens and lymph nodes were isolated from each rabbit.

An appropriate volume of cells was moved to the fusion chamber and fusion was performed by ting high voltage connection. After , the cells were incubated in the chamber at RT for 5 min, gently re—suspended in Post-Fusion Medium (RPM11640 with 10% FBS, containing glutamate, te, non-essential amino acids, B-mercaptoethanol, penicillin, streptomycin, and no Phenol Red) and then transferred to a ?ask. The r was washed with the same volume of post-fusion media to obtain additional cells. The cells were incubated at room temperature for 25 min and then overnight at 37°C, 5% C02.
One day after fusion, the cells were diluted in pre-warmed seeding media (cIMDM plus 10% FBS containing 1X nthine-aminopterin-thymidine) to the desired density (35,000 cells/mL) and plated at 200 uL/well in 96-well microplates. The plates were incubated at 37°C, 5% C02 and fed with fresh medium weekly for 3-4 weeks.
Screening of anti-CA9 mAbs: B-cells from rabbit splenocytes were fused to fusion r cells CBF7 to generate hybridomas as described herein. Four weeks after plating the cells, the supematants from individual hybridoma cultures were collected and screened using a eci?c ELISA. The assay plates er Bio-One High Binding 384-well clear plate, cat #655081) were coated with 1 ug/ml CA9 ECD ght at 4°C and blocked with 1X Assay Buffer (PBS plus 1% BSA, containing 0.05% Tween-20). Then, 25 uL/well of supematants and controls were added to the blocked plates and incubated overnight at 4°C. The assay plates were washed three times and 25 uL/well of secondary antibodies (HRP-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG, Jackson # 115146) diluted 1: 10,000 in Assay Buffer was added to the . After incubation at room temperature for one hour, the assay plates were washed three times and 25 uL/well ofTMB Substrate (KPL #5204) was added to the plates. After incubation at room temperature for 5 minutes, 25 uL/well of 1X Stop Solution (1:10 H2SO4, VWR #EM-SX1244- 75) was added. Sample absorbance at 450 nm was measured by using Paradigm (Beckman) plate reader. The positive hits from the primary screen were confirmed by a second CA9- specific ELISA.
Cloning and mutagenesz's Amplification of VH and VK regions of CA9 and hTEMl mAbs: Hybridoma cells secreting rabbit mAbs of interest were lysed to extract RNA.

After 48-72 h, cells were fed at a ?nal concentration of 10 g/L late (BD Biosciences), 5 mM valeric acid (Sigma h), and 1:100 CD Lipid Concentrate (Thermo Fisher Scienti?c).
For each mL of cells to be transfected with ExpiFectamine, 333.3 ng HC plasmid and 333.3 ng LC plasmid were incubated for 10 min in 50 [L EM (Thermo Fisher Scienti?c). Likewise, 2.67 uL ExpiFectamine was incubated in 50 [LL Opti-MEM. The ExpiFectamine solution was added to the DNA mixture, and incubated for 30 min at 22°C. The DNAzExpiFectamine mixture was added to the cells while swirling and ted at 37°C, 8% C02, shaking at 125 rpm. The following day, 3 uL of er l and 30 uL of enhancer 2 per mL of cells were added to the transfection with continued to incubate for another 7 or 10 days, depending on cell density.
Antibody-expressing stable pools were selected by adding 3 mL of transfectants to 12 mL DMEM in a T75 ?ask with 5 ug/mL blasticidin and 400 ug/mL zeocin (Thermo Fisher Scienti?c) one to three days after transfection. After drug—resistant cells grew to ncy, the medium was replaced with FreeStyle 293 expression medium. After 24 or 48 h, cells were physically dislodged by tapping the ?ask (trypsinization resulted in low Viability, data not shown) and were then seeded at 6x105 cells/mL in 30 mL FreeStyle 293 expression medium in a 125-mL shake ?ask. Cultures were incubated at 37°C in 8% C02 with shaking at 125 rpm. mAb production: Antibody production from stable pools was performed by one of two methods: 1. Stable-transfected cell line pools were seeded at 0.6 to 1x106 mL in 293FreeStyle medium. Two days after the culture reached a density of 1x106 cells/mL, cultures were fed as described , or 2. Stable-transfected cell line pools were centrifuged at 1000 rpm in a Beckman Allegra 6 centrifuge for 5 min. The supernatant was removed, and the cells were resuspended in 1 L 3 medium ) at 0.5-0.8x106 cells/mL in a 2.8-L shake ?ask. Cells were incubated at 37 °C, 8% C02, shaking at 125 rpm.
For both s, the cultures were incubated at 37°C in 8% C02 with shaking at 125 rpm for 7-10 days, depending on when cell viability dropped to about 50%, at which time the cultures were centrifuged for 1 h at 8000 rpm in a Beckman JLA8.1000 rotor. The supernatant was then ?ltered through a 0.2 um PES ?lter and stored at 4°C or -20°C until puri?cation. mAb purification Antibody puri?cation by n A af?ni? chromatography: Using an AKTA Explorer (GE Healthcare), a protein A column (GE Healthcare) was equilibrated with 10 column volumes (CV) of 20 mM sodium phosphate, 10 mM EDTA, pH 7.2. The sample was then loaded, followed by washing unbound material with 10 CV of equilibration buffer. The sample was eluted using 5 CV of 0.1 M e pH 2.9. The fractions containing the mAb were pooled and dialyzed in Dulbecco’s phosphate buffer (DPBS) using a MWCO 20K Slide-A-Lyzer o Fisher Scienti?c).
Cysteine decapping: Using an AKTA Explorer (GE Healthcare), a protein A column (GE Healthcare) was equilibrated with 10 CV of 20 mM sodium phosphate, 10 mM EDTA, pH 7.2 (equilibration buffer).

LC—MS/MS cysteinylaz‘l'on and disufflde bond mapping analyses The mAb was buffer-exchanged to 50 mM ammonium bicarbonate buffer, pH 7.8 using aZeba spin desalting column (Thermo-Fisher). The concentration was adjusted to 1 mg/mL and RapiGest s) was added to 0.1%. The mAb was then digested with Glu-C (New England BioLabs) (25:1 w/w) at 37 0C for 4 h, followed by digestion with Asp-N (New d BioLabs) (25:1 w/w) at 37°C for 18 h. Following digestion, 5% tri?uoroacetic acid (TFA) was added to 0.5% and incubated at 37°C for 90 min. The sample was centrifuged at 13,000 rpm for 30 min to remove pellets and analyzed by LC-MS/MS using MSE methodology in the second ionization phase. MSE methodology uses a ramped voltage rather than a ?xed e in the second ionization phase to generate a more complete ion profile. Samples were analyzed using a Waters y UPLC and Q-Tof Premier mass spectrometer. s were injected onto a Waters BEH 300 C18, 1.7 pm pore size, 2.1 x 100 mm, eluted from the column with a 3 min equilibration in 97% of mobile phase A (0.1% formic acid in H20), a 55 min linear gradient (3-45% mobile phase B (0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile)), a 5 min linear gradient 0% mobile phase B), a 5 min isocratic phase (90% mobile phase B), a 5 min linear gradient (90%-3% mobile phase B), and a 5 min ilibration in 97% of mobile phase A, at 0.05 mL/min. The Q-Tof mass spectrometer was run in positive ion, V-mode with detection in the range of 200-2000 m/z. The source parameters were as follows: capillary voltage, 3.0 kV, sampling cone voltage, 40 V, source temperature, 120°C, desolvation temperature, 25 0°C, desolvation gas ?ow, 600 L/hr. Lockspray mass reference standard was glu-flb. MSE method was as follows: acquisition time, 3-70 mins, data range, 200-2000m/z, scan time, 1.5 sec, expression, low energy 6V, ramp high energy from .
The antibody aggregation was ed by size-exclusion, high-performance liquid tography method (SEC-HPLC) using an Agilent 1100. The mAb was diluted to 1 mg/mL in DPBS. The antibody (20 uL) was injected onto a TSngl SuperSW guard column (4.6 mm x 3.5 cm, 4 mm pore size, Tosoh Bioscience), followed by a TSngl SuperSW3000 column (4.6 mm X 30 cm, 4 um pore size), eluted from the column with 0.1 M PBS containing 0.15 M NaCl and 0.05% NaN3, at pH 7.4, at a ?ow rate of 0.3 mL/min for 20 min. All data were analyzed using Agilent ChemStation software. Percent ation was calculated as [PAaggregate/PAmelOO, where PA = integrated peak area.
UPLC/ESI-MS analysis ofmalemz'de-biotin:mAb conjugation Purified antibodies were diluted to 1 mg/mL in DPBS (samples were left at original concentration if below 1.0 mg/mL). Maleimide-PEG2-Biotin ((ma1)-PEG2-Biotin) (Thermo Fisher Scienti?c) was ved in DPBS to yield a 20 mM stock solution, followed by dilution to 1 mM in DPBS. Mal-PEG2-Biotin was added to 1 mL of decapped mAb at a 5:1 conjugation ratio and ted at 22°C with gentle rotating for 2 hr. The reaction was ed using a Zeba spin desalting column. The mAbs were then deglycosylated using PNGase F (New England BioLabs). G7 buffer (10 uL) and PNGase F (2 uL) were added to the mAb (90 uL).
The reaction was incubated in a er microwave (CEM) for 2 cycles: 1) microwave power W, 37°C, 10 min, followed by a 5—min pause; and 2) ave power 2 W, 37°C, 10 min.
A portion of the sample was reduced by adding dithiothreitol (DTT) to a final concentration of mM, followed by incubation at 60°C for 3 min.
Samples were then analyzed using a Waters Acquity UPLC and Q-Tof Premier mass spectrometer. Samples (0.5—2 ug each) were injected onto a MassPrep micro desalting column at 65°C, eluted from the column with a 5 min equilibration in 95% of mobile phase A, a min gradient (5-90% B), and a 10 min re-equilibration in 95% of mobile phase A, at 0.05 mL/min. Mobile phase A was 0.1% formic acid in water. Mobile phase B was 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile. The Q-Tof mass spectrometer was run in positive ion, V-mode with detection in the range of 500-4000 m/z. The source parameters were as follows: capillary voltage, 2.25 kV (intact antibody)-2.50 kV (reduced antibody); sampling cone voltage, 65.0 V (intact antibody) or 50.0 V (reduced antibody); source temperature, 100°C, desolvation temperature, 250°C, desolvation gas ?ow, 550 L/hr. The protein peak was deconvoluted using the MassLynx MaXEnt 1 function. Conjugation ency was calculated as [Ibiotmylated/(Ibio?nylated+1unmod~l?ed)]*100 of the deconvoluted mass spectrum, where I = mass peak intensity.
BIAcore analysis ofmAbzaniigen af?nity Antibody concentrations were ed to te 30-40 RU signal when bound to the antigen. Humanized mAbs purified by standard protein A affinity chromatography or by the decapping method were injected over an anti-human IgG sensor on a BIAcore T100 (GE Healthcare) for 1 min at a ?ow rate of 10 uL/min. The sensor surface was washed by injecting HBS-P buffer for 1 min at a ?ow rate of 50 uL/min. To record the n association to the captured mAb, a series of increasing concentrations of antigen was injected for 60 sec at a ?ow rate of 50 uL/min. The dissociation of antigen was monitored for 30 min at the same flow rate. The sensor surface was regenerated by injecting 3 M MgClz for 1 min and then 30 sec at a ?ow rate of 30 uL/min. Sensograms were ed with Biacore T100 Evaluation Software using a 1:1 ir g model.
Bivaleni/Bispeci?c Fab preparation mAb-derived Fab fragments were prepared separately using immobilized , followed by isolation of the pure Fab nts from Fc/undigested mAb using Protein A chromatography. Maleimido-PEG4-azide was synthesized by combining NHS-maleimide and azido-PEG4-amine in DMSO for 1 hr in a 1:1 molar ratio. Unreacted NHS was quenched by the addition of Tris-HCl buffer to prevent homodimerization. Fabs were conjugated to either maleimido-PEG4-azide or maleimido-PEG4-dibenzocyclooctyne (DBCO) at a 5:1 molar ratio of maleimidezFab and reacted for 4 hr at 22°C. The modified Fab fragments were desalted twice each in DPBS to remove all unreacted products, and the Fab fragments were ed at a molar ratio of 1:1 at 2 mg/mL final concentration and allowed to form dimers overnight at 22°C.
The reaction was ed by SDS-PAGE and dimerization efficiency was estimated at 20%.
The dimer preparation was puri?ed from unreacted monomer by S-200 gel ?ltration chromatography, nt/Bispeci?c Octet assay Biotinylated human CA9 was captured on streptavidin Biosensor tips (Pall) for 4 min. Following tion in PBS for 2 min, the tips were incubated with the bivalent/bispeci?c Fabs, mAb alone, or Fab alone for 5 min. Following incubation in PBS for 2 min, the tips were ted with human endosialin/TEM-l for 5 min. Finally, the tips were ted in PBS for another 2 min. Association and disassociation protein to the tips was measured throughout.
Example 2 — Cy580 conjugation Objective Site-speci?c conjugation logies are desirable to produce a homogeneous t with a de?ned drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR). The VK domain of a rabbit mAb, such as that derived from Oryctolagus cuniculus, may contain a cysteine in position 80 (referred to as "Cys80") () and the CK region may contain a cysteine in position 171 ("Cys171") (). ico modelling predicted that Cys80 and Cys171 might be forming a disul?de bond, as the two S atoms are predicted to be approximately 1.6 A apart (). Human mAbs have proline, , or alanine residues in position 80 (), and serine in position 171 (), thus there is no disul?de bridge between the variable and constant region ().
The crystal structure closest to rabbit or human VK and CK sequences was identi?ed using BLAST pdb database and used as a template for modeling 155D5 mAb structure. Models were generated using Discovery Studio's "Build Homology Models" tool (Accelrys). The model with the lowest total energy was selected, typed with the CHARMm force?eld, and the energy was further minimized through two rounds of energy minimization using the "Minimize" tool. The CDR loops were then re?ned using the "Model Antibody Loops" tool. The model with the lowest total energy was selected, typed with the CHARMm force?eld, and the energy was further minimized as above. The proximity of CysSO and Cys171 () ts that these cysteines may be forming a disul?de bond. The "Build Mutants" tool was used to represent this disul?de bond.
Since disul?de bonds are critical for maintaining secondary and tertiary structural integrity, which in turn is necessary for an antibody’s biological activity, it was important to prove whether the predicted Cys80-Cys171 bond actually existed. Therefore, ad hoc experiments were conducted that unequivocally demonstrated that the rabbit mAbs contained such a bond (Table 4).
Table 4. Demonstration of the existence of Cys80-Cys171 disulfide bond 'DCTYNLSSTLSLTK (170-183) (SEQ ID N022) 1545.7465 Not observed ———(SEQIDN023) 82 Not observed (SEQ ID N022) (SEQ ID N023) (disulfide-linked Hetides as above) 2741.3285 2740.2659 LC-MS/MS analysis was performed on a Glu—C/Asp-N digest of rabbit 155D5 MAb (from NZW rabbit). Only masses corresponding to ide-linked cys80-cysl71 were found, indicating that cysSO forms a disulfide bond with cysl71 in rabbit IgG. A similar analysis was performed using 12 mAb (from b9 rabbit).
A Species-human chimerized mAb is made through the fusion between: i) the le region from the Species where the mAb was generated; and ii) the human nt region. This s is called chimerization. A humanized mAb is mostly made of human variable and constant s, except for those residues necessary for antigen binding, which are from the same species of the host from which the mAb was generated. This process is called humanization. To engineer human chimerized or humanized mAbs, whereby the mAbs were generated in hosts belonging to the species Oryctolagus cuniculus the entire constant domains as well as most of the variable regions (if zed) were genetically replaced with the human variable and human constant ces. After either chimerization or humanization, the Cys80 in the VK no longer formed a disulfide bond with position 171 in the CK (), and is therefore ed.
Germline NZW rabbit VK families have a ne at position 80 as shown in (the CDR s were deleted, and frameworks (FWR) 1, 2, and 3 were aligned).
Discovery and characterization ofan unpaired cysteine at position 80 Rabbit constant regions of 155D5 and 1E4 (anti-CA9), 12 (anti-hTEMl), as well as 33011 (anti-MSLN), all of which contain Cys80 and generated as described in Example 1, were replaced with the human constant regions of an IgGlK to generate rabbit/human chimerized mAb, as described elsewhere herein. Speci?cally, the rabbit VH region of 155D5 was fused with the human Cy region to generate Xi155D5HC, and the rabbit VK region of 155D5 was fused with the human CK region to generate Xi155D5LC. The rabbit/human chimerized 155D5 mAb with the unpaired CysSO is referred to herein as Xi155D5.
VH region of 12 was fused with the human Cy region to generate Xi1 2H, and the rabbit VK region of 1-55—2 was fused with the human CK region to generate - 2LC. The rabbit/human chimerized 12 mAb with the unpaired Cys80 is referred to herein as Xil2.
The rabbit VH region of 1E4 was fused with the human Cy region to generate xi1E4HC, and the rabbit VK region of 1E4 was fused with the human CK region to generate Xi1E4LC. The /human chimerized 1E4 mAb with the unpaired Cys80 is ed to herein as xi1E4.
The rabbit VH region of 33011 was fused with the human Cy region to generate xi33011HC, and the rabbit VK region of 33011 was fused with the human CK region to generate Xi33011LC. The rabbit/human chimerized 33011 mAb (Xi33011) with the unpaired Cys80 is ed to herein as 1.
Because the Cys171 was substituted with Ser171 during chimerization, the ized antibodies (Xi155D5, -2, Xi1E4, and Xi33011) ned an unpaired cysteine at position 80 in the VK (referred to as "Cy580"), When reduced using harsh conditions (20 mM DTT at 60 0C for 5 min), the molecular weight (mass) of the protein A-puri?ed mAb Xi155D5 light chain was 23,382 Da (). However, when subjected to mild reducing conditions (100 M DTT, RT, 30 min) the mass increased by 120 Da (). This mass increase suggested that CysSO might be forming a disul?de bond with a free cysteine, referred to as "capping" cysteine. This molecular structure, which results from a reaction called "cysteinylation", is referred to as "capped" CysSO. To con?rm this hypothesis, xi155D5 mAb was digested with Asp-N and Glu-C, and the masses of the peptides were analyzed. Mass spectrometry analysis of peptide fragments corresponding to residues 71 through Cys80 (FTLTITGVQC) (SEQ ID N0:24) ted an increased molecular weight by 119 Da (Table 5), thereby ming that Cys80 was capped.
Table 5. Mass spectrometry of X1155D5 peptide 71—Cys80 fragments FTLTITGVQC (SEQ 10 N024) 1082.555 12015544 118.9994 (SEQ ID N0225) 935.4866 1054.4946 119.008 (SEQ ID N0226) 834.4389 953.4397 119.0008 TITGVQC (SEQ 10 NO:27) 721.3549 840.3552 119.0003 ITGVQC (SEQ ID N028) 6203072 739.3067 118.9995 (SEQ ID NO:29) 31 626.2235 119.0004 (SEQ ID N0230) 405.47 525.1809 119.7109 (SEQ ID NO:31) 249.28 369.0883 119.8083 Because the lack of the Cysl71 disul?de bond could have led to antibody instability, disruption of antigen g, or both, antibody stability and n binding tests were conducted. The stability of Xi155D5 was tested using a SE-HPLC assay. This assay tests whether the lack of Cys80-Cysl71 disul?de bond could lead to aggregation (due to possible olecular Cys80-Cys80 bonds), or degradation (due to sed sensitivity to proteases).
Puri?ed antibody at 1 mg/mL in 1X PBS was stored at -80°C or 37°C for 1 week. Ten uL of Xi155D5 was injected onto a SuperSW3000 column (TOSOH Biosciences, 4.6 mm X 30 cm, 4 pm particle size) equipped with an in-line TSngl 4.6 mm X 3.5 cm guard column at a ?ow rate at 0.3 mL/min with 0.1 M sodium phosphate, 0.15 M NaCl, 0.05% NaN3 as mobile phase. No cant change in aggregation was observed between the two storage conditions ( and 5B). The level of aggregation was in the 3-4% range and hence within the normal range of a typical human IgG1 (data not shown). Little or no degradation ts were observed in any storage conditions (. These results suggest that Xi155D5 lacking the Cys80-Cys171 disul?de bond is a stable protein under the storage conditions tested.
To determine if chimerization, and ore the loss of CysSO-Cysl71 disul?de bond, results in structural perturbations leading to loss of antigen binding, the binding af?nity of mAbs 155D5, xi155D5, 12, and xi12 by surface plasmon resonance was evaluated.
Biotinylated ligand (biotin-hTEMI for 12, -CA9 for 155D5) was captured on a coated biotin CAP e chip (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, NJ) using HBS-EP as running buffer.
Final antigen capture levels were 130 RU and 280 RU, respectively, for biotin-TEMl and biotin- CA9. Serial dilutions of antibody (120 uL of 0-50 nM) were passed over the ligand-coated chip.
Dissociation was observed for 25 min. The chip e was regenerated with 6 M GuHCl, 250 mM NaOH. Sensograms were double referenced and kinetic ters were determined using BIAEvaluations software (ver. 4.1). Little or no loss of binding ty was observed due to chimerization of two different mAb (Table 6), ting that the lack of the CysSO-Cysl7l disulfide bond does not lead to disruption of the binding .

A thiol-reactive group can be attached to a linker, which in turn can be attached to a molecule of stic or eutic utility, referred to herein as "functional agent." Functional agents may include ?uorophores, ?uorescent dyes, polypeptides, immunoglobulins, antibiotics, nucleic acids, radionuclides, chemical linkers, small molecules (such as chemotherapeutic agents), ors, lipids, and drugs.
To substitute the capping cysteine with a onal agent, the capping cysteine was first removed. Exposing purified mAbs to reducing conditions could break the disulfide bond between Cys80 and the capping cysteine, referred to herein as "decapping." However, suboptimal ng conditions, for example harsh reducing conditions, could also break the inter— and intra—chain disul?de bonds, thereby compromising the mAb ure and activity.
Therefore, a decapping method involving removal of the capping cysteine using mild reduction, followed by reoxidation with Tris—containing buffer that does not alter the mAb structure and activity, while still allowing removal of the capping cysteine, was developed. A number of reducing agents were lly evaluated, including reduced glutathione, cysteine, TCEP, and DTT. Glutathione did not efficiently remove the capping cysteine (data not shown). Both DTT and TCEP efficiently removed the capping cysteine, but higher concentrations also resulted in the near-complete breakage of inter—chain disulfldes and likely some intra—chain disulfides as well (data not shown). The mild reductant cysteine efficiently d the capping cysteine and only limited inter-chain breakage was observed. Reoxidation was examined using phosphate , Tris buffer, and the strong oxidant CuSO4, No reoxidation of the disrupted chain disul?des was observed with phosphate buffer, while CuSO4 ef?ciently and rapidly reformed the disul?des, but was not evaluated further, due to its inherent toxicity compared with Tris.
Optimized conditions were adapted to a column format to allow for sequential puri?cation and decapping from feedstock. With this method, the antibody was bound to protein A resin and incubated with limited ?ow (0.5 mL/min) with a buffer containing 5 mM cysteine for 16 h to reduce (break) the CysSO-cysteine disul?de bond, followed by washing with a ne-free Tris- containing buffer for 60 h to remove the cysteines released by this treatment and re-oxidize any reduced hain disul?de bonds. The mAb was then eluted in a low pH glycine buffer. In an exemplary experiment whereby the decapping method was d to xi155D5, the mass of the non-reduced, puri?ed mAb was determined and ~99% of the mAb was found decapped, as demonstrated by the drop in mass equivalent to two free nes ( and 6B). Free thiol assay con?rmed the presence of two thiol groups per mAb, also demonstrating ef?cient re- oxidation (data not shown).
Decapped Cys80 can be conjugated to maleimide Cysteine is an (x-amino acid with anonpolar side chain (thiol; -SH). The reduced thiol side chain in an unpaired cysteine could serve as a nucleophile that can react with an electrophile molecule such as maleimide, a chemical compound with the a H2C2(CO)2NH. The electrophile double bond in maleimide readily reacts with the nucleophile thiol group found on cysteine to form a stable carbon-sulfur thioether bond. The arity of the thiol side chain, depending on the surrounding residues, might confer a hydrophobic property to a cysteine that may prevent solvent exposure necessary for chemical ations. In addition, the location of the cysteine in the context of the secondary structure of the peptide in which it is located may r prevent access of thiol-reactive molecule. Experimental testing to determine whether Cys80 could react with a thiol-reactive molecule after decapping was performed. The ed xi155D5 was incubated with maleimide-PEG2-biotin as described elsewhere herein. Mass spectrometry is showed that 94% of the mAb was conjugated with maleimide—PEGZ-biotin as indicated by an increase in molecular mass by 526 Da (, ponding to the onal agent mass. As each light chain was found conjugated (single mass peak, , the maleimide—PEGZ-biotin to xi155D5 ratio was homogeneously equal to 2:1. One malein1ide—PEG2-biotin was conjugated to a Cys80 in each of the two light chains in the chimerized mAb (CysSO1 and Cys802).
These results trate that Cys80 and Cys171 form a disulfide bond that links the VK and CK regions of a rabbit mAb. When rabbit mAbs were chimerized, Cys171 was substituted by Ser17l present in the human CK region. This tution abolished the Cys80- Cysl71 disul?de bond. When the effects of losing this disul?de bridge on the structural stability and activity of the resulting chimerized mAb compared with the parental rabbit mAb were evaluated, it was observed that the chimerized mAb was stable and active. It was discovered that both Cys801 and Cys802, which remained unpaired in the chimerized mAb, were capped by a free cysteine (capping cysteine). Subsequently, a method to remove the capping cysteine (decapping), while maintaining structural stability and activity of the resulting chimera mAb, was developed. Additionally, it was demonstrated that high yields of mAb conjugated to malein1ide—PEG2-biotin could be ed with a functional agent to mAb ratio equal to 2: 1.
Humanization ofrabbit mAbs Chimerized mAbs could be immunogenic when administered to humans and therefore it is ble to ze rabbit mAbs by substituting rabbit sequences with human sequences in the VK and VH regions. The amino acid sequence of mAb 155D5 was analyzed using a BLAST search t a human variable domain se at /wwwncbinlmnih.gov/igblast/ to identify the human sequence with highest homology to the rabbit sequence. IGHV3-64*04 and IGKVl-5*03 were identi?ed as the best sequences for humanization, as their use would result in the least number of rabbit residue substitutions (FIG.
The 155D5 sequences corresponding to the antigen binding domains as identi?ed by Kabat and Chothia CDRHl, Chothia CDRHZ, CDRH3, CDRLl, CDRLZ, and CDRL3 were ed into the framework (FWR) regions ofhuman IGHV3-64*04 or IGKVl- *03 to generate the humanized 155D5 mAb, named zu155D5-1 (Table 7 and Table 8).
During the humanization of 155D5LC (zu155D5LC), Cys80 was maintained, which was unpaired since the human kappa sequence has Ser17l as opposed to . zu155D5-1 was produced and purified using rd protein A purification, and found to be , as evidenced by the change of mass after decapping by 233 Da, approximately ponding to two capping cysteines (. As observed with xi155D5, zu155D5-1 could also be decapped with efficiency close to 100% (Table 9). However, the decapping led to massive levels of aggregation (70%) versus only 14% in Xi155D5. When zu155D5-1 was reacted with maleirr1ide—PEG2-biotin, 0% conjugation was observed while xi155D5 was 93% conjugated (Table 9). These results were surprising, as they suggest that: 1) having a cysteine in position 80, although necessary, is not sufficient to allow for site-specific conjugation of a functional agent; and 2) in some conditions, attempting conjugation on Cys80 could lead to high aggregation not compatible with drug manufacturability, However, since the disclosed studies, which characterized 5, demonstrated that at least in some conditions conjugation of a functional agent on Cys80 could be very efficient, it was next investigated how residues surrounding Cys80 may in?uence conjugation efficiency. uently, structural models of chimerized 5 were generated (), which indicated that residues Vall 1, Ala14, Glyl7, Thr18, Lys63, Thr76, Gly77, Val78, Ala83, Glu103, and Leu104 were in close proximity (within 18 A) to Cys80 and therefore could ially be affecting the efficiency of its conjugation.
Two versions of FWR1 (FWR1 a-b), one version of FWR2, three versions of FWR3 —c), and two version of FWR4 (FWR4a—b) were designed based on the aforementioned residues (Table 7).

A series of humanized 155D5 variants were generated that contained combinations of these frameworks and either Cys80—Xaa1-Xaa2-Phe83 (also ed to as C—X- X-F or CXXF) or Cys80-Xaa1-Xaa2-Ala83 (also referred to as C-X—X-A or CXXA), whereby "Xaa" or "X" indicates amino acids in position 81 and 82 (Table 8).
Table 8. Humanized 155D5 ts derived from human VK family IGKVl-S It was observed that, irrespective of the FWR version used, humanized mAbs having the C-X-X-F motif showed high ation (after decapping) and poor conjugation (Table 9). Conversely, 4 of the 5 mAb variants containing C-X-X-A motif, and irrespective of the FWR version used, showed high percent of conjugation ef?ciency (280%) and low aggregation (after ing) of <1 8% (Table 9). zu155D5-4 is an outlier that exhibited a low percentage of conjugation ef?ciency and a high aggregation after decapping. It is noted that the zu155D5-4 antibody has a propensity to aggregate independently of ing, which may account for the observed results. These data suggested that Phe83 is involved in causing high aggregation after decapping and is not conducive to ation on Cys80.

It is desirable to achieve aggregation of 25% or less as a ng point of downstream process optimization, whereby further optimization of fermentation parameters, puri?cation conditions and drug formulations can achieve a more desirable ation level of % or less. It is also desirable to achieve 70% or higher conjugation ency to minimize product waste, cost of goods, and maximize product homogeneity. Henceforth, the investigation focused on meeting and ing these speci?cations by extrapolating rules to apply to the humanization methods of rabbit mAbs. 155D5-l was ted by following a standard practice, which involves utilizing the human germline sequences most homologous to the parent sequence. Because of this practice, the human VK subfamily IGKV1-5 was used for humanizing 155D5, having an percent identity of 70.5% (data not shown) and containing Phe83. The alternative VK ilies, which have similar percent of identity (data not shown), also contained Phe83 (. As this residue appeared to vely in?uence Cys80 conjugation efficiency and cause high aggregation, the presence or absence of Phe83 in other human VK families was evaluated, despite the fact that the highest identity found in these VK families was lower (68.4%) and therefore they would not typically be used for humanizing 155D5. Since all of the human VK families except IGKV4, IGKV5, and IGKV7 have multiple subfamilies, all subfamilies were aligned within their family (data not . After removal of redundant sequences, only one sequence remained for each of the IGKV—4, -5, -6, —6D, and -7 families, which could be used for humanization. For families IGKV-l, -2, and —3, the subfamily with closest homology to the sus was chosen as the framework to humanize 155D5. A preliminary analysis indicated that while some of these VK families contained Phe83 others did not (and Table 10).
To study the effect of the presence or absence of Phe83 in the context of these VK es, the CDR regions of 155D5 were genetically grafted onto the human frameworks IGKV1-39*01, IGKV2-40*01, IGKV3-11*01, IGKV4-1*01, IGKV5-2*01, IGKV6-21*01, IGKV6D-4l*01, and IGKV7-3*Ol. IGKV5-2*Ol Asn20, which contains an N—linked glycosylation site at residues 20, and its Thr20 t were not included in this analysis because the former could not be analyzed by mass spectrometry due to heterogeneity, and the latter did not express well. IGKV7—3*Ol Asn8l was not included in the analysis because it could not be analyzed by mass spectrometry. However, the t 3*01—Glu81 was included in the analysis. The ing results were obtained from the analysis (Table 10): l. The zed mAb with the huIGKVl-39 sequence and containing Phe83 showed an aggregation increase from 0 to 26% after decapping; the ation efficiency was borderline acceptable (68%) but aggregation being >25% was not; 2. The zed mAb with the huIGKV2-40 sequence contained a human germline Val83, this mAb showed aggregation <25% after decapping (11%) and conjugation ef?ciency >70% (92%). These parameters were acceptable, suggesting that the human germline Va183 is conducive to pairing with Cys80 to allow Cys80 conjugation; 3. The humanized mAb with the huIGKV3-11 sequence contained a human germline Phe83, while ation was below 25%, ation ncy was 55%, therefore not meeting the criterion of >70%, 4. The humanized mAb with the huIGKV4-1 sequence contained a human germline Va183, this mAb showed aggregation <25% after decapping (6%) and conjugation ef?ciency >70% (82%). These parameters were acceptable, suggesting that the human Va183 is conducive to pairing with Cys80 to allow Cys80 conjugation, as seen with the huIGKV2- 40 sequence, . The humanized mAbs with the huIGKV6-21 or huIGKV6D-41 sequences both contained a human germline Ala83; these mAbs showed aggregation <25% after decapping and ation ef?ciency >70%. These parameters were acceptable, suggesting that the human germline Ala83 is conducive to pairing with CysSO to allow CysSO conjugation, as seen with the Xi155D5 ce; and 6. The humanized mAb with the huIGKV7Glu81 sequence contain a human germline Thr83, this mAb showed aggregation <25% after decapping (6%) and conjugation ef?ciency close to 100%. These parameters were acceptable, suggesting that the human germline Thr83 is conducive to g with Cys80 to allow Cys80 conjugation.

These results t the discovery that position 83 in?uences Cys80 conjugation efficiency negatively when occupied by phenylalanine, and indicate that, in addition to alanine, valine and threonine can substitute Phe83 to allow Cys80 conjugation.
To con?rm that, in the context of other mAbs, Phe83 is involved with causing high aggregation after ing and is not conducive to ation on Cy580, humanized mAb variants of 1E4 (anti-CA9), 166B3 (anti-CA9), and 33011 (anti-MSLN) were generated containing either C-X-X-F or C-X-X-A.
Monoclonal antibody variants having C-X—X-F motif met the conjugation specifications but not the aggregation specifications, whereas all humanized mAb variants having C-X-X-A showed aggregation less than 25% and conjugation efficiency greater than 70% (Tables 11 and 12). These studies demonstrate that the C-X-X-(non) F or K is a motif that allows meeting conjugation speci?cations.

Because Ala83, Val83 and Thr83 were already found conducive for Cys80 conjugation (Table 9, and Table 11), it remained to be determined whether Ile83 would be a favorable or unfavorable e with respect to Cys80 conjugation. Hence, the humanized mAb variant of 33011 was generated containing the Xaa1-Xaa2-Ile83 (also referred to as C-X-X-I or CXXI) motif, which showed aggregation less than 25% and conjugation ef?ciency greater than 70% (Table 11), consistent with previous C-X-X-(non)F motifs tested. This result supports the discovery that, in addition to Ala83, Va183 and Thr83, Ile83 can also substitute Phe83 to allow Cys80 conjugation while meeting ation speci?cations.
The disclosed studies te that, while chimerized rabbit mAbs are le for site-speci?c conjugation on Cys80 only after ng the disclosed decapping method as discussed above, humanized rabbit mAbs having the C-X-X-F motif or C-X-X-K motif are not well suited for such modi?cations due to high aggregation after decapping and/or low conjugation ef?ciency. It was hypothesized that the residues surrounding Cys80 may play a role in this phenomenon. Because the VK region encompasses more than 100 residues, understanding the interplay between key surrounding residues and Cys80 required the use of structural modelling paired with experimental testing. It was discovered that among the residues in close proximity to Cys80, Phe83 exerted a negative effect on Cys80 ation ef?ciency. It was also observed that all of the rabbit mAbs contained Phe83 after humanization using a classical humanization approach (), despite the fact that human VK sequences can also contain other amino acids in position 83, including e, ine, valine, and isoleucine. When these VK families were used for humanization, it was con?rmed that Phe83 and Ly583 are suf?cient to endow the humanized mAb with undesirable properties, such as high aggregation and/or low conjugation ef?ciency, while the remaining amino acid es (with the exception of Cys, which was not tested due to the desire to obtain a single Cys for conjugation) were conducive to Cys80 conjugation.
These results suggest that the C-X—X-F motif and C-X-X-K motif are to be avoided when conjugating at CysSO. Using a C-X-X-(not)F or K motif, for e the motif C- X-X-A, C-X-X-T, C-X-X-V, and C-X-X-I through the substitution of Phe83, chimerized as well as humanized mAbs were generated that met the desired conjugation speci?cations.
Affinity ofxi]55D5 and the humanized variants xi155D5 and the humanized variants were d by standard protein A chromatography or the decapping method, and their af?nity was analyzed using BIAcore (Table 13). There was less than a 2-fold difference in the KD between chimeric and humanized 155D5, and little difference between the samples puri?ed by the two different methods.

To improve the potency of agents targeting MSLN, de novo anti-MSLN rabbit monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were developed and subsequently ered and conjugated with auristatin F (AuF) at Cys80 to generate a panel of MSLN-AuF conjugated mAbs.
Generation and characterization ofrabbit anti-MSLN mAbs New Zealand rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) were immunized at on (Germany) using plasmid DNA encoding the human MSLN protein ("MSLN"). On day 52, animal sera were collected and later tested for MSLN binding by ?ow cytometry using mammalian cells ently sing human MSLN. -D shows that sera from both animals contained MSLN—binding dies. An ELISA assay later con?rmed this result (E). Then, animals were sacri?ced and PBMCs from blood as well as the lymphocytes from spleens and lymph nodes were collected and cryopreserved.
The lymphocytes from lymph nodes previously frozen were recovered and treated with DNase I and Pokeweed mitogen for one hour at 37°C/5% C02. Cells were counted and seeded at 5 cells/40 uL/well in complete IMDM medium ning 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and cytokines (IL-2 and IL-21 at 10.5 ng/mL) in 384-well plates pre-seeded with CHO—K1 cells expressing CD154 as feeder cells. Cells were fed again by adding 20 uL/well of the same medium as above after one week. Two weeks after seeding, B cell culture supematants were collected for ing to fy clones with specific reactivity to human MSLN. The plates with cells were frozen and stored at -80°C for future RNA ion and gene ampli?cation. B cell culture supematants were first screened for IgG production by rabbit IgG FRET assay. IgG- producing clones (5,775) were selected and screened by using ELISA to determine binding to human MSLN (1St ing). Some of the anti-MSLN—reactive clones were re-tested (211d screening) for reactivity to MSLN but not to a control antigen (human CD73). Five mAbs were selected and are shown in Table 14.
Table 14. Clones with specific reactivity to human MSLN 1St ing 2nd screening rabbit mAb Reading (Optical Density) g (Optical y) production reactivity reactivity reactivity The plates containing the selected mAbs were thawed, and the B cells were lysed to isolate RNAs using RNAqueous Kit (Ambion). The RNAs were used to set up RT-PCR reactions to amplify the antibody variable regions. The resulting DNAs were sequenced, and primers were designed for compatibility with the InFusion HD® cloning system as described by the manufacturer (Clontech, Mountain View, CA). The variable region PCR fragments were cloned into an expression plasmid ning either a human gamma or kappa constant region.
These plasmids were transfected using the FreeStyle 293 sion system (Thermo Fisher Scienti?c) to produce mAbs as described elsewhere herein.
Generation and terization ofMSLN-AuF Cys80 conjugated mAbs ized mAbs were generated as disclosed in Example 2, n xi33011 is one of the ?ve SLN mAbs and the other four mAbs were chimerized following the same method. Hence, these SLN mAbs contain unpaired Cys80, speci?cally, the motif C- X-X-A. They are herein referred to as xi32405, xi178Fl6, xi237N18, Xi33011, and xi383118.
After their production, the selected ?ve chimerized mAbs were ated to auristatin F (AuF) according to the following methods to generate MSLN—AuF Cy580 conjugated mAbs.
Antibody puri?cation with "decapping": Decapping rabbit/human mAbs is a step required for conjugation to CysSO. Using an AKTA Explorer (GE Healthcare), a protein A column (GE Healthcare) was equilibrated with 10 CV of 20 mM sodium phosphate, 10 mM EDTA, pH 7.2. The sample was then loaded, followed by washing unbound material with 10 CV of bration buffer. The column was washed with 16 CV of 20 mM sodium phosphate, mM EDTA, 5 mM cysteine, pH 7.2 at 0.5 mL/min for 16 h. The column was then washed with 60 CV of 20 mM Tris, pH 7.5 at 0.5 mL/min for 60 h. The sample was eluted using 5 CV of 0.1 M Glycine pH 2.9. The fractions containing the mAb were pooled and ed in DPBS using a MWCO 20K Slide-A-Lyzer (Thermo Fisher Scienti?c). Protein recovery was determined by BCA assay.
Auristatin F conjugation: Puri?ed and decapped chimerized MSLN-mAbs containing the C-X-X-A motif were incubated with maleimido-PEGZ-auristatin F (mal-PEG2- AuF) (structure shown below), diluted from a 10 mM stock in DMSO (Concortis Biosystems, San Diego, CA) at a 5:1 molar ratio (AuF:MAb) at a ?nal antibody concentration of 5 mg/mL in 1x PBS. Conjugation was performed for 2 hr at 22°C. Unreacted mal-PEG2-AuF was removed by desalting puri?cation on an AKTA FPLC ?tted with a 26/10 desalting column (GE Healthcare) using 1x PBS as running buffer. Antibody-containing fractions were pooled and n concentration ined by BCA assay.
Maleimido-PEG2—auristatin F: \T o'-T/\\0000 0 K/Ov\o/\/N \ SI-MS analysis: Samples were reduced by adding DTT to a ?nal concentration of 20 mM, followed by incubation at 60°C for 3 min. Samples were then analyzed using a Waters Acquity UPLC and Q-Tof Premier mass ometer. Samples (0.5-2 ug each) were injected onto a MassPrep micro desalting column at 65°C, eluted from the column with a 5 min equilibration in 95% of mobile phase A, a 10 min gradient (5-90% B), and a 10 min re- equilibration in 95% of mobile phase A, at 0.05 mL/min. Mobile phase A was 0.1% formic acid in water. Mobile phase B was 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile. The Q-Tof mass spectrometer was run in positive ion, V-mode with detection in the range of 500-4000 m/z. The source parameters were as follows: capillary e, 2.25 kV t antibody)—2.50 kV (reduced antibody); sampling cone voltage, 65.0 V (intact antibody) or 50.0 V (reduced antibody), source temperature, 100°C, desolvation temperature, 250 °C, desolvation gas ?ow, 550 L/hr. The protein peak was deconvoluted using the MassLynx MaxEnt 1 function. A representative analysis is shown in . Typically, 390% of conjugated mAbs had an antibody-to- functional agent ratio of 2, signifying that each chimerized anti-MSLN mAbs carried an AuF molecule conjugated to each of Cy5801 and Cys802.
In vitro cytotoxicity A431-MSLN are cells derived from A431 cells (ATCC® 55TM) that stably express human MSLN. A431-MSLN cells were sub-cultured and seeded in 96-well plates at 10,000 cells/well/ 100 uL in RPMI medium containing 10% FBS and incubated at 37°C, 5% C02 for 16 hour. MSLN—AuF Cy580 conjugated mAbs were serially diluted 1:4 in 2 mL deep- well dilution plates. Diluted compounds (100 uL) were added to the cell , with ?nal concentrations ranging 0.28-75 ug/mL. Mal-PEG2—AuF was used at an equimolar concentration of the conjugated mAbs. For e, 10 ug/mL of MSLN-AuF Cys80 conjugated mAb (DAR=2) equates to 0.14 ug/mL of mal-PEG2-AuF. Plates were incubated at 37°C, 5% C02 for an additional 48 hours. Medium was discarded, plates were washed once with 200 uL DPBS, d with 50 uL of 0.2% crystal violet on at 22°C for 15 minutes, and then washed extensively with tap water. Plates were air-dried, and crystal violet was dissolved with 200 uL of 1% SDS solution. Colorimetric optical density was determined at 570 nm. Excel was used to extrapolate cell number from optical densities and GraphPad Prism 6 was used to plot the percent cytotoxicity.
When MSLN-negative A431 cells were treated with MSLN—AuF CysSO conjugated mAbs, no signi?cant xicity was observed, while mal-PEG2-AuF was cytotoxic only at the t concentration tested (A). When MSLN-positive A431-MSLN cells were treated with MSLN—AuF Cys80 conjugated mAbs, cant cytotoxicity was observed.
Based on the dose-response curves (B), MSLN-AuF CysSO conjugated mAbs could be categorized into 2 groups: Medium cytotoxicity — xi32405-AuF, and xi178F16-AuF; and High cytotoxicity — xi237N18—AuF, xi330l 1—AuF, and xi383118-AuF.
In vivo evaluation - Initial selection ofMSLN-AuF Cys80 conjugated mAbs The in vivo ef?cacy of the MSLN-AuF Cys80 conjugated mAbs was tested against tumor expressing MSLN, with the objective of selecting a few compounds with high ef?cacy and low toxicity.
The A431-MSLN cells were propagated in cell culture, ded in serum-free growth medium, mixed 1:1 with MatrigelTM, and 5 million 0,2 mL/mouse were implanted subcutaneously (so) into athymic NCr nu/nu mice. Tumor volume was determined by caliper measurements (mm) and using the a for an ellipsoid sphere: Length x Width2/2 = Volume (mm3). When tumor volume ranged 100-250 mm3, mice were randomized into treatment groups.
The animal body weights and tumor size were recorded twice . The overall design of this study is summarized in Table 15. The MSLN—AuF Cys80 conjugated mAbs were administered intravenously (i.v.)

Day 4 post-implantation corresponds to the day when mice were randomized into different treatment groups, with average tumor volume ranging 157-160 mm3 across all . On this day, the ?rst dose of MSLN-AuF Cys80 conjugated mAbs was administered followed by a second dose on day 11.
All MSLN-AuF Cys80 conjugated mAbs showed anti-tumor response, as evidenced by the fact that the tumor volume on day 18 was 20% or less compared to the saline- treated group (Table 16). In contrast, mal-PEGZ-AuF showed no anti-tumor response.

In the Xi32405-AuF-treated group, a body weight loss of 11% was ed in surviving animals as well as two oribund animals. In the Xi178F16-AuF, Xi237N18-AuF, and Xi383118-AuF-treated groups, no signi?cant body loss was ed, but one or two dead/moribund animals were ed. All the other treatment groups showed neither body weight loss nor dead/moribund animals.

Assessment oftarget speci?city ofanti-tumor activity ed by MSLN-AuF Cys80 conjugated The method used for this study was the same as described above (In vivo evaluation - Initial selection ofMSLN-AuF Cys80 conjugated mAbs). In addition to A431- MSLN cells, which were implanted on the left ?ank of each mouse on Day 4, MSLN—negative A431 cells were implanted in the same mouse on the te (right) ?ank on Day 1. The former cells grow tumors faster than the latter, and hence were implanted 3 days later so that the ?rst dose of test drug were given when the tumor in both ?anks were similar in volume. The overall design of this study is summarized in Table 18.

Day 4 post-implantation corresponds to the day when mice were randomized into different treatment , with average A431-MSLN tumor volume ranging 8 mm3 across all groups. On this day, the ?rst dose of MSLN—AuF Cys80 conjugated mAbs was administered followed by a second dose on day 11. xi33011-AuF mediated anti-tumor responses that reduced tumor volume on day 18 to 12% compared to the saline-treated group (Table 19). Xi237N18-AuF mediated umor responses that reduced tumor volume to 24% compared to the saline—treated group (Table 19).
An unpaired, two-tailed t test indicated a p value of 0.00039 and 0.00197, respectively, suggesting that these anti-tumor responses versus saline-treated group were statistically significant. In st, mal-PEG2-AuF or Xi12-AuF, which targets endosialin/TEMl, showed no signi?cant anti-tumor responses.

The in vitro cytotoxicity analysis indicated that these nds were targeting and killing MSLN—positive but not MSLN-negative tumor cells.
All MSLN—AuF Cys80 conjugated mAbs tested had anti-tumor activity, some of which appeared to be potentially more toxic than others. The nature of this toxicity was not r characterized. It was observed that both the MSLN-AuF Cys80 conjugated mAbs tested in viva could target MSLN—positive tumors and inhibit their growth, whereas no signi?cant effect was observed against egative tumors in the opposite ?ank. While the toxicity pro?le of xi237N18 was similar in both studies, xi33011-AuF treatment showed no toxicity in the ?rst study but was associated with two deaths in the second study. The nature of this toxicity was not further characterized; however, as x1330] l-AuF-treated mice still d a large MSLN- ve tumor on the other ?ank and were therefore sicker than the animals in the ?rst study, these mice may have been more sensitive to the effect of the massive tumor cell lysis t the MSLN—positive tumor.
Example 4 - Generation of dy-?uorescent dye conjugates The xi155D5 mAb containing the C-X-X-A motif was conjugated to the 800CW dye (LI-COR Biotechnology, Lincoln, NE) to generate a xi155D5-800CW CysSO conjugated mAb having two dye molecules ated to Cys801 and Cys802.
Conjugation of 800CW onto CysSO was carried out using maleimide-(CH2)2- 800CW (LiCor), whereby (CH2)2 is an alkyl linker. Brie?y, ide-(CH2)2- 800CW was dissolved into 100% DMSO at a ?nal tration of 10 mM. Maleimide-(CH2)2- 800CW was added to xi155D5 (5 mg/ml in 1x PBS) at a 5:1 molar ratio of b and incubated for 4 hr at room temp. Unincorporated dye was removed by desalting on PD-10 columns (Millipore). xi155D5-800CW was r polished via size-exclusion chromatography on Superdex 75. Void volume material was pooled, aliquotted, and frozen at -80 until use. SDS-PAGE and imaging analyses of reduced xi155D5-800CW indicated that the dye was conjugated only on the light chain but not the heavy chain ().
NCR-nude female mice were injected with either 0010205 or HT-29 human tumor cells subcutaneously to the right hind limbs. Tumor growth was monitored by caliper measurement. When the tumor volume was 200-300 mm3, xi155D5-800CW was injected through the tail veils at 0.1 mg/200uL/mouse. For monitoring xi155D5-800CW distribution via ?uorescent living imaging, animals were placed into an anesthesia chamber for approximately 3- 4 minutes using iso?uorane/Oz until the animals were unconscious. Animals were imaged using the ?uorescence setting of 745 excitation and 840 emission in a IVIS® Lumina II-Kinetic instrument (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA). Images of the dorsal, right, ventral, and left side were taken at different time points as indicated in . After each successive image the animal were allowed to regain ousness in a recovery chamber receiving 100% oxygen ?ush followed by normal air.
Using the S or HT-29 models, it was observed that xi155D5—800CW ef?ciently targeted human tumors, as trated by the tumor-speci?c localization of its ?uorescent signal ().
These results demonstrated that a mAb containing the C-X-X-(not)F, K, or C motif can be conjugated to a dye and that the conjugated mAb can be used to identify and monitor tumor status.
Example 5 - Generation of bivalent/bispecific antigen-binding molecules When a mAb containing the (not)F, K, or C motif is digested with papain, or is inantly expressed as a Fab fragment, it will contain a single unpaired Cys80 since the Fab ns only one VK region. Using orthogonal conjugation chemistry, Cys80- containing Fabs can be used to generate chemically-conjugated bivalent/bispecific antigenbinding molecules, such as bivalent/bispecific Fab-Fab, that can be utilized for ing two independent disease-relevant targets, including two ligands (cytokines, chemokines), two membrane receptors, or ligand/receptor combinations, to name a few.
As an example, Fabs were generated from xi155D5 and xi12 using limited papain digestion, followed by protein A chromatography to remove the Fc fragments and undigested mAb. Fabs were shown to be fully decapped using mass spectrometry (data not shown). Subsequently, Xi155D5 and -2 Fabs were conjugated separately using maleimido-PEG4-dibenzylcyclooctyne (DBCO) and maleimido-PEG4-azide, respectively.
Unconjugated compound was removed by desalting chromatography and complete occupancy of the Cys80 sites was confirmed by mass spectrometry (data not shown). Then, xi155D5- maleimido-PEG4-DBCO and xi12-maleimido-PEG4-azide fragments were conjugated to each other via strain-promoted copper-free click chemistry by incubation in PBS at 22°C for 16 hours. Conjugated products were onated by using gel-?ltration chromatography (A) and the different species were identified by SDS-PAGE based on their ed molecular size (B). Fractions containing the xi155D5/xi12 bivalent/bispecific antigen-binding molecule were pooled and the xi155D5/xi1—55-2 bivalent/bispecific n-binding molecule identity was con?rmed by mass spectrometry based on its ed mass (95,939 Da, C).
The bispeci?city of XilSSDS/Xil2 bivalent/bispeci?c antigen-binding molecule was con?rmed via biolayer inferometry (BLI) analysis using an inverse sandwich assay. This analysis trated binding to immobilized human CA9 (bound by the Xi155D5 Fab ) followed by binding of soluble TEM-l (bound by -2 Fab moiety) ().
As expected, Xi155D5 mAb, Xi155D5 Fab, and the XilSSDS/Xil2 bivalent/bispeci?c antigen- binding molecule bound to immobilized CA9. Only the CA9-immobilized xilSSDS/xil-SS-Z bivalent/bispeci?c antigen-binding molecule was able to bind also human alin/TEM-l, as demonstrated by the additional response shift observed (, double arrow). e plasmon resonance analysis trated that the af?nity of XilSSDS/Xi12 for CA9 or TEM-l was the same or slightly reduced, respectively (Table 22).
These results demonstrate that: l) a mAb containing the C-X-X-(not)Fcan be conjugated to polypeptides, such as an antibody fragment or a Fab; and 2) when two mAbs or Fabs, of ent speci?city, containing the C-X-X—(not)F are orthogonally conjugated, a bivalent/bispeci?c compound can be generated.

Table 23. A[3(1-16) Peptide Sequence human amyloid-beta NH2-DAEFRHDSGYEVHHQK(PEG8—N3)—COOH peptide AMI-16) (SEQ ID NO:40) ACCESSION lBA6 A Conjugation of peptide A[3(1-16) onto Cys80 was carried out using a two-step conjugation procedure, whereby Cys80 was ?rst conjugated with maleimidodibenzylcyclooctyne (mal—DBCO). Azido-modi?ed peptide AB(1-16) was then conjugated to the DBCO-modi?ed mAbs using strain-promoted copper-free click chemistry. Brie?y, mAb (20 mgs) was incubated with mal—DBCO (Click Chemistry Tools, cat A108) at a mal-DBCO:MAb molar ratio of 5:1 for 16 hrs at 22°C in 1X DPBS. Unincorporated CO was removed from conjugated mAb by desalting tography using a HiPrep 26/10 column with 1x DPBS as running buffer. ation ef?ciency of 100% (no evidence of unconj ugated light chain) was con?rmed for both mAbs by LC-MS ( and Table 24). Each mAb (50 uL/each, 95 pg and 70 ug of -2 and 1, respectively) was ted with peptide 16) at peptidezMAb molar ratio of 20:1 in 1X DPBS for 16 hrs at 22°C. Conjugations were analyzed by SDS-PAGE. Samples were run under ng ions, with 20 mM DTT as reductant and heating to 75°C for 10 min prior to tion.
Analysis of the SDS-PAGE indicated retardation of the peptide-conjugated light chain migration accompanied by no detectable unconj ugated light chain, indicating ef?cient conjugation (). No change in heavy chain mobility was ed. Conjugations were then desalted using 0.5 ml Zeba 40k MWCO spin desalting columns (Thermo-Fisher) to remove unconjugated peptide and were analyzed by LC-MS. Mass spectrometry analysis (A-F) indicated that the peptide was conjugated to the light chains of Xi12 and Xi33011 with ef?ciencies of 85%-100% (Table 24).
These results demonstrated that a mAb containing the C-X-X-(not)F, K, or C motif can be ef?ciently conjugated to peptides.
