FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0003] The present invention relates to antibodies, e.g., full
length antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof, that
specifically bind tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-like ligand 1A
(TL1A). The invention further relates to compositions comprising
antibodies to TL1A, and methods of using the antibodies as a
medicament. The TL1A antibodies are useful for treating and
preventing diseases and disorders mediated by TL1A.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0004] Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-like ligand 1A (TL1A) is a
member of the TNF family of cytokines also known as TNFSF15. TL1A
is the only known ligand for its receptor Death Receptor 3 (DR3)
also known as TNFRSF25. TL1A expression on antigen presenting cells
(monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells) and DR3 expression on
effector cells (T cells, NK and NKT cells) is highly dependent on
pro-inflammatory conditions (Migone et al, 2002, Immunity
16(3):479-492; Prehn et al, 2004, Clin. Immunol. 112(1):66-77; Shih
et al, 2009, Eur J Immunol 39(11):3239-3250). In vivo and in vitro
evidence support a co-stimulatory role for the TL1A/DR3 pathway on
T cells and in enhancing effector cell functions, inflammatory cell
expansion and cytokine secretion. Further, this pathway has been
implicated in the regulation of pathogenic Th1, Th2, and Th17
T-helper responses, and of NK and NK-T cell responses, in
immune-mediated diseases (Papadakis et al, 2004, J Immunol
172(11):7002-7007; Prehn et al, 2004, Clin. Immunol. 112(1):66-77;
Papadakis et al, 2005, J Immunol 174(8):4985-4990; Pappu et al,
2008, J Exp Med 205(5):1049-1062; Takedatsu et al, 2008,
Gastroenterology 135(2):552-567).
[0005] Studies of DR3 or TL1A gene-deficient mice or mice treated
with anti-TL1A antibodies demonstrate a role for this pathway in a
number of autoimmune disease models, such as IBD, asthma, multiple
sclerosis, and arthritis (see Meylan et al., 2008, Immunity
29(1):79-89.; Pappu et al, 2008; Hsu and Viney, 2011, Mucosal
Immun. 4(4):368-370).
[0006] Moreover, significant literature from studies involving
nonclinical species and humans implicates TL1A most prominently in
the pathophysiology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), such as,
ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's Disease (CD). That is, numerous
genome-wide association studies have linked several polymorphisms
of the TL1A gene to UC and CD in patient populations of Japanese,
European, and Asian origin (Yamazaki et al, 2005. Hum Mol Genet
14(22):3499-3506.; Barrett et al, 2008, Nat Genet 40(8):955-962;
Kakuta et al, 2009, Hum Mol Genet 18(6):1089-1098; Jostins et al,
2012, Nature 491(7422):119-124.; Yamazaki et al, 2013,
Gastroenterology 144(4):781-788).
[0007] Additionally, human inflamed IBD tissues show high levels of
TL1A and DR3 expression and several independent laboratories have
demonstrated that antibody blockade of TL1A prevents or attenuates
established gut inflammation in a number of murine IBD models
(Bamias et al, 2003, J Immunol 171(9):4868-4874; Prehn et al, 2004;
Bamias et al, 2006, Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 103(22):8441-8446.;
Takedatsu et al, 2008, Gastroenterology 135(2):552-567; Shih et al,
2009; Kamada et al, 2010, Inflamm Bowel Dis 16(4):568-575; Meylan
et al, 2011, Immunol Rev 244(1):188-196; Taraban et al, 2011,
Mucosal Immunol 4(2):186-196; Bamias et al, 2012, Dig Liver Dis.
44(1):30-36).
[0008] Although the exact cause of IBD, e.g., CD and UC, remains
unclear, inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines and adhesion
molecules have been shown to provide some therapeutic benefit.
However, despite current medical therapy, most CD patients may
ultimately require surgery, and, over time, repeated resections can
result in short gut syndrome, ultimately committing the patient to
life-long parenteral nutrition and its associated complications.
Thus, there is a long-felt unmet need for more robust therapies for
CD patients. Further, there is a long-felt unment need for novel
therapeutics to treat or ameliorate IBD, including UC and CD, as
well as to treat other TL1A-mediated diseases and conditions. The
present invention meets these needs.

heavy chain of 1D1 is closer to the viewer with the light chain
behind it.
[0522] FIG. 6 depicts a magnified view of a selected region in
CDRH1 (as defined by AbM) of 1 D1 scFv, which illustrates that
serine 28 residue of CDRH1 has no strong H-bond partners with any
residues on TL1A.
[0523] FIG. 7 depicts a magnified view of a selected region in
CDRH1 (as defined by AbM) of 1 D1 scFv as shown in FIG. 6. The
diagram shows that the model indicates that substitution of serine
28 with aspartic acid provides opportunity for strong interactions
(e.g., H-bonds and a salt bridge).

sticks. TL1A is shown in thin sticks with the conformation from the
parental 1D1 costructure in light gray and the conformation from
the 1D1 1.31 costructure in black.
[0529] FIG. 13 is a graph depicting expression of membrane-bound
TL1A (mTL1A) by monocytes in the presence and absence of anti-TL1A
antibody 1D1 1.31. Human monocytes from whole blood were stimulated
by plate-bound IC for 4 hours.+-.1 D1 1.31 and show a peak to the
right of the overlapping peaks demonstrated by both isotype control
(light gray) and unstimulated cells (dark gray). Membrane TL1A was
detected using streptavidin PE and measured by flow cytometry such
that amount of TL1A on cell surface is expressed along the x-axis

demonstrated by staining with a commercial biotinylated-anti-DR3
antibody followed by staining with streptavidin-PE. After staining,
DR3 expression was examined by flow cytometry analysis. Cell counts
are plotted against mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) as a measure
of DR3 expression which is demonstrated by the increase in MFI in
the cells stained with the DR3 antibody (light gray) as compared to
the streptavidin-PE control cells (dark gray). FIG. 14B depicts a

about 94.17. FIG. 15B depicts a graph illustrating dose-dependent
inhibition of caspase activity by antibody 1D1 1.31 in TF-1 cells
in response to TL1A stimulation. TF-1 cells were stimulated by 87
pM TL1A in the presence of the indicated concentrations of 1 D1
1.31 for 6 hours at 37.degree. C. in the presence of cycloheximide.
Caspase activity was measured by luciferin activity released upon

[0545] Enzymatic reactions and purification techniques are
performed according to manufacturer's specifications, as commonly
accomplished in the art or as described herein. The nomenclatures
used in connection with, and the laboratory procedures and
techniques of, analytical chemistry, biochemistry, immunology,
molecular biology, synthetic organic chemistry, and medicinal and
pharmaceutical chemistry described herein are those well known and
commonly used in the art. Standard techniques are used for chemical
syntheses, chemical analyses, pharmaceutical preparation,
formulation, and delivery, and treatment of patients.
Definitions
[0546] The following terms, unless otherwise indicated, shall be
understood to have the following meanings: the term "isolated
molecule" (where the molecule is, for example, a polypeptide, a
polynucleotide, or an antibody or fragment thereof) is a molecule
that by virtue of its origin or source of derivation (1) is not
associated with naturally associated components that accompany it
in its native state, (2) is substantially free of other molecules
from the same species (3) is expressed by a cell from a different
species, or (4) does not occur in nature. Thus, a molecule that is
chemically synthesized, or expressed in a cellular system different
from the cell from which it naturally originates, will be
"isolated" from its naturally associated components. A molecule
also may be rendered substantially free of naturally associated
components by isolation, using purification techniques well known
in the art. Molecule purity or homogeneity may be assayed by a
number of means well known in the art. For example, the purity of a
polypeptide sample may be assayed using polyacrylamide gel
electrophoresis and staining of the gel to visualize the
polypeptide using techniques well known in the art. For certain
purposes, higher resolution may be provided by using HPLC or other
means well known in the art for purification.
[0547] As used herein, "substantially pure" means an object species
is the predominant species present (i.e., on a molar basis it is
more abundant than any other individual species in the
composition), and preferably a substantially purified fraction is a
composition wherein the object species (e.g., a glycoprotein,
including an antibody or receptor) comprises at least about 50
percent (on a molar basis) of all macromolecular species present.
Generally, a substantially pure composition will comprise more than
about 80 percent of all macromolecular species present in the
composition, more preferably more than about 85%, 90%, 95%, and
99%. Most preferably, the object species is purified to essential
homogeneity (contaminant species cannot be detected in the
composition by conventional detection methods) wherein the
composition consists essentially of a single macromolecular
species.
[0548] An "antibody" is an immunoglobulin molecule capable of
specific binding to a target, such as a carbohydrate,
polynucleotide, lipid, polypeptide, etc., through at least one
antigen recognition site, located in the variable region of the
immunoglobulin molecule. As used herein, the term encompasses not
only intact polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies, but also, unless
otherwise specified, any antigen binding portion thereof that
competes with the intact antibody for specific binding, fusion
proteins comprising an antigen binding portion, and any other
modified configuration of the immunoglobulin molecule that
comprises an antigen recognition site. Antigen binding portions
include, for example, Fab, Fab', F(ab').sub.2, Fd, Fv, domain
antibodies (dAbs, e.g., shark and camelid antibodies), fragments
including complementarity determining regions (CDRs), single chain
variable fragment antibodies (scFv), maxibodies, minibodies,
intrabodies, diabodies, triabodies, tetrabodies, v-NAR and
bis-scFv, and polypeptides that contain at least a portion of an
immunoglobulin that is sufficient to confer specific antigen
binding to the polypeptide. An antibody includes an antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of any class, such as IgG, IgA, or
IgM (or sub-class thereof), and the antibody need not be of any
particular class. Depending on the antibody amino acid sequence of
the constant region of its heavy chains, immunoglobulins can be
assigned to different classes. There are five major classes of
immunoglobulins: IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM, and several of these
may be further divided into subclasses (isotypes), e.g., IgG.sub.1,
IgG.sub.2, IgG.sub.3, IgG.sub.4, IgA.sub.1 and IgA.sub.2. The
heavy-chain constant regions that correspond to the different
classes of immunoglobulins are called alpha, delta, epsilon, gamma,
and mu, respectively. The subunit structures and three-dimensional
configurations of different classes of immunoglobulins are well
known.
[0549] The terms "antigen-binding portion" or "antigen-binding
fragment" of an antibody (or simply "antibody portion"), as used
interchangeably herein, refers to one or more fragments of an
antibody that retain the ability to specifically bind to an antigen
(e.g., TL1A). It has been shown that the antigen-binding function
of an antibody can be performed by fragments of a full-length
antibody. Examples of binding fragments encompassed within the term
"antigen-binding portion" of an antibody include (i) a Fab
fragment, a monovalent fragment consisting of the VL, VH, CL and
CH1 domains; (ii) a F(ab')2 fragment, a bivalent fragment
comprising two Fab fragments linked by a disulfide bridge at the
hinge region; (iii) a Fd fragment consisting of the VH and CH1
domains; (iv) a Fv fragment consisting of the VL and VH domains of
a single arm of an antibody, (v) a dAb fragment (Ward et al.,
(1989) Nature 341:544-546), which consists of a VH domain; and (vi)
an isolated complementarity determining region (CDR),
disulfide-linked Fvs (dsFv), and anti-idiotypic (anti-Id)
antibodies and intrabodies. Furthermore, although the two domains
of the Fv fragment, VL and VH, are coded for by separate genes,
they can be joined, using recombinant methods, by a synthetic
linker that enables them to be made as a single protein chain in
which the VL and VH regions pair to form monovalent molecules
(known as single chain Fv (scFv)); see e.g., Bird et al. Science
242:423-426 (1988) and Huston et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA
85:5879-5883 (1988)). Such single chain antibodies are also
intended to be encompassed within the term "antigen-binding
portion" of an antibody. Other forms of single chain antibodies,
such as diabodies are also encompassed. Diabodies are bivalent,
bispecific antibodies in which VH and VL domains are expressed on a
single polypeptide chain, but using a linker that is too short to
allow for pairing between the two domains on the same chain,
thereby forcing the domains to pair with complementary domains of
another chain and creating two antigen binding sites (see e.g.,
Holliger et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90:6444-6448 (1993);
Poljak et al., 1994, Structure 2:1121-1123).
[0550] Antibodies may be derived from any mammal, including, but
not limited to, humans, monkeys, pigs, horses, rabbits, dogs, cats,
mice, etc., or other animals such as birds (e.g. chickens), fish
(e.g., sharks) and camelids (e.g., llamas).
[0551] A "variable region" of an antibody refers to the variable
region of the antibody light chain (VL) or the variable region of
the antibody heavy chain (VH), either alone or in combination. As
known in the art, the variable regions of the heavy and light
chains each consist of four framework regions (FRs) connected by
three complementarity determining regions (CDRs) also known as
hypervariable regions, and contribute to the formation of the
antigen binding site of antibodies. If variants of a subject
variable region are desired, particularly with substitution in
amino acid residues outside of a CDR region (i.e., in the framework
region), appropriate amino acid substitution, preferably,
conservative amino acid substitution, can be identified by
comparing the subject variable region to the variable regions of
other antibodies which contain CDR1 and CDR2 sequences in the same
canonical class as the subject variable region (Chothia and Lesk,
J. Mol. Biol. 196(4): 901-917, 1987).
[0552] In certain embodiments, definitive delineation of a CDR and
identification of residues comprising the binding site of an
antibody is accomplished by solving the structure of the antibody
and/or solving the structure of the antibody-ligand complex. In
certain embodiments, that can be accomplished by any of a variety
of techniques known to those skilled in the art, such as X-ray
crystallography. In certain embodiments, various methods of
analysis can be employed to identify or approximate the CDR
regions. In certain embodiments, various methods of analysis can be
employed to identify or approximate the CDR regions. Examples of
such methods include, but are not limited to, the Kabat definition,
the Chothia definition, the AbM definition, the contact definition,
and the conformational definition.
[0553] The Kabat definition is a standard for numbering the
residues in an antibody and is typically used to identify CDR
regions. See, e.g., Johnson & Wu, 2000, Nucleic Acids Res., 28:
214-8. The Chothia definition is similar to the Kabat definition,
but the Chothia definition takes into account positions of certain
structural loop regions. See, e.g., Chothia et al., 1986, J. Mol.
Biol., 196: 901-17; Chothia et al., 1989, Nature, 342: 877-83. The
AbM definition uses an integrated suite of computer programs
produced by Oxford Molecular Group that model antibody structure.
See, e.g., Martin et al., 1989, Proc Natl Acad Sci (USA),
86:9268-9272; "ABM.TM., A Computer Program for Modeling Variable
Regions of Antibodies," Oxford, UK; Oxford Molecular, Ltd. The AbM
definition models the tertiary structure of an antibody from
primary sequence using a combination of knowledge databases and ab
initio methods, such as those described by Samudrala et al., 1999,
"Ab Initio Protein Structure Prediction Using a Combined
Hierarchical Approach," in PROTEINS, Structure, Function and
Genetics Suppl., 3:194-198. The contact definition is based on an
analysis of the available complex crystal structures. See, e.g.,
MacCallum et al., 1996, J. Mol. Biol., 5:732-45. In another
approach, referred to herein as the "conformational definition" of
CDRs, the positions of the CDRs may be identified as the residues
that make enthalpic contributions to antigen binding. See, e.g.,
Makabe et al., 2008, Journal of Biological Chemistry,
283:1156-1166. Still other CDR boundary definitions may not
strictly follow one of the above approaches, but will nonetheless
overlap with at least a portion of the Kabat CDRs, although they
may be shortened or lengthened in light of prediction or
experimental findings that particular residues or groups of
residues do not significantly impact antigen binding. As used
herein, a CDR may refer to CDRs defined by any approach known in
the art, including combinations of approaches. The methods used
herein may utilize CDRs defined according to any of these
approaches. For any given embodiment containing more than one CDR,
the CDRs may be defined in accordance with any of Kabat, Chothia,
extended, AbM, contact, and/or conformational definitions.
[0554] As outlined elsewhere herein, certain positions of the
antibody molecule can be altered. By "position" as used herein is
meant a location in the sequence of a protein. Positions may be
numbered sequentially, or according to an established format, for
example the EU index and Kabat index can be used to number amino
acid residues of an antibody. For example, position 297 is a
position in the human antibody IgG1. Corresponding positions are
determined as outlined above, generally through alignment with
other parent sequences.
[0555] By "residue" as used herein is meant a position in a protein
and its associated amino acid identity. For example, Asparagine 297
(also referred to as Asn297, also referred to as N297) is a residue
in the human antibody IgG1.
[0556] As used herein, "monoclonal antibody" refers to an antibody
obtained from a population of substantially homogeneous antibodies,
i.e., the individual antibodies comprising the population are
identical except for possible naturally-occurring mutations that
may be present in minor amounts. Monoclonal antibodies are highly
specific, being directed against a single antigenic site.
Furthermore, in contrast to polyclonal antibody preparations, which
typically include different antibodies directed against different
determinants (epitopes), each monoclonal antibody is directed
against a single determinant on the antigen. The modifier
"monoclonal" indicates the character of the antibody as being
obtained from a substantially homogeneous population of antibodies,
and is not to be construed as requiring production of the antibody
by any particular method. For example, the monoclonal antibodies to
be used in accordance with the present invention may be made by the
hybridoma method first described by Kohler and Milstein, 1975,
Nature 256:495, or may be made by recombinant DNA methods such as
described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,567. The monoclonal antibodies may
also be isolated from phage libraries generated using the
techniques described in McCafferty et al., 1990, Nature
348:552-554, for example. As used herein, "humanized" antibody
refers to forms of non-human (e.g. murine) antibodies that are
chimeric immunoglobulins, immunoglobulin chains, or fragments
thereof (such as Fv, Fab, Fab', F(ab').sub.2 or other
antigen-binding subsequences of antibodies) that contain minimal
sequence derived from non-human immunoglobulin. Preferably,
humanized antibodies are human immunoglobulins (recipient antibody)
in which residues from a CDR of the recipient are replaced by
residues from a CDR of a non-human species (donor antibody) such as
mouse, rat, or rabbit having the desired specificity, affinity, and
capacity. The humanized antibody may comprise residues that are
found neither in the recipient antibody nor in the imported CDR or
framework sequences, but are included to further refine and
optimize antibody performance.
[0557] A "human antibody" is one which possesses an amino acid
sequence which corresponds to that of an antibody produced by a
human and/or has been made using any of the techniques for making
human antibodies as disclosed herein. This definition of a human
antibody specifically excludes a humanized antibody comprising
non-human antigen binding residues.
[0558] The term "chimeric antibody" is intended to refer to
antibodies in which the variable region sequences are derived from
one species and the constant region sequences are derived from
another species, such as an antibody in which the variable region
sequences are derived from a mouse antibody and the constant region
sequences are derived from a human antibody or vice versa. The term
also encompasses an antibody comprising a V region from one
individual from one species (e.g., a first mouse) and a constant
region from another individual from the same species (e.g., a
second mouse).
[0559] The terms "antigen" and "Ag" refers to the molecular entity
used for immunization of an immunocompetent vertebrate to produce
the antibody (Ab) that recognizes the Ag or to screen an expression
library (e.g., phage, yeast or ribosome display library, among
others). Herein, Ag is termed more broadly and is generally
intended to include target molecules that are specifically
recognized by the Ab, thus including fragments or mimics of the
molecule used in an immunization process for raising the Ab or in
library screening for selecting the Ab. Thus, for antibodies of the
invention binding to TL1A, full-length TL1A from mammalian species
(e.g., human, monkey, mouse and rat TL1A), including monomers and
multimers, such as dimers, trimers, etc. thereof, as well as
truncated and other variants of TL1A, are referred to as an
antigen.
[0560] Generally, the term "epitope" refers to the area or region
of an antigen to which an antibody specifically binds, e.g., an
area or region comprising a contact residue that interacts with the
antibody. Thus, the term "epitope" refers to that portion of a
molecule capable of being recognized by and bound by an antibody at
one or more of the antibody's antigen-binding regions. Typically,
an epitope is defined in the context of a molecular interaction
between an antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, and its
corresponding antigen. Epitopes often consist of a surface grouping
of molecules such as amino acids or sugar side chains and have
specific three-dimensional structural characteristics as well as
specific charge characteristics. In some embodiments, the epitope
can be a protein epitope. Protein epitopes can be linear or
conformational. In a linear epitope, all of the points of
interaction between the protein and the interacting molecule (such
as an antibody) occur linearly along the primary amino acid
sequence of the protein. A "nonlinear epitope" or "conformational
epitope" comprises noncontiguous polypeptides (or amino acids)
within the antigenic protein to which an antibody specific to the
epitope binds. The term "antigenic epitope" as used herein, is
defined as a portion of an antigen to which an antibody can
specifically bind as determined by any method well known in the
art, for example, by conventional immunoassays. Alternatively,
during the discovery process, the generation and characterization
of antibodies may elucidate information about desirable epitopes.
From this information, it is then possible to competitively screen
antibodies for binding to the same epitope. An approach to achieve
this is to conduct competition and cross-competition studies to
find antibodies that compete or cross-compete with one another for
binding to TL1A, e.g., the antibodies compete for binding to the
antigen.
[0561] As used herein, the terms "wild-type amino acid," "wild-type
IgG," "wild-type antibody," or "wild-type mAb," refer to a sequence
of amino or nucleic acids that occurs naturally within a certain
population (e.g., human, mouse, rats, cell, etc.).
[0562] The term "antagonist antibody" refers to an antibody that
binds to a target and prevents or reduces the biological effect of
that target. In some embodiments, the term can denote an antibody
that prevents the target to which it is bound from performing a
biological function, e.g., binding to its cognate receptors.
[0563] As used herein, an "anti-MIA antagonist antibody" refers to
an antibody that is able to inhibit TL1A biological activity, or
the activity of a homopolymer comprising TL1A, such as a homodimer
or a homotrimer) and/or downstream event(s) mediated by TL1A,
including, but not limited to, binding to its receptors, including
DR3, and mediating signaling thereby. TL1A antagonist antibodies
encompass antibodies that block, antagonize, suppress or reduce (to
any degree, including significantly) TL1A biological activity,
including downstream events mediated by TL1A, such as, DR3 binding
and downstream signaling. For purposes of the present invention, it
will be explicitly understood that the term "anti-TL1A antibody"
(interchangeably termed "antagonist TL1A antibody", "antagonist
anti-TL1A antibody", "anti-TL1A antagonist antibody",) encompasses
all the previously identified terms, titles, and functional states
and characteristics whereby the TL1A itself, a TL1A biological
activity (including but not limited to its ability to bind a
receptor), or the consequences of the biological activity, are
substantially nullified, decreased, or neutralized in any
meaningful degree. In some embodiments, an anti-TL1A antibody binds
TL1A and prevents its binding and signalling through DR3. In some
embodiments, the antagonist ability is characterized and/or
described via a cell-based assay, such as an NFkB inhibition assay
or caspase inhibition assay as disclosed herein. In some
embodiments, the antagonist ability is described in terms of an
IC.sub.50 or EC.sub.50 value. In some embodiments, the TL1A
antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the disclosure is
considered to block, antagonize, suppress or reduce TL1A activity
if it reduces a TL1A activity by 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%,
40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95% or more
relative to the TL1A activity in the absence of the antibody.
[0564] As known in the art, a "constant region" of an antibody
refers to the constant region of the antibody light chain or the
constant region of the antibody heavy chain, either alone or in
combination.
[0565] The terms "polypeptide", "oligopeptide", "peptide" and
"protein" are used interchangeably herein to refer to chains of
amino acids of any length. The chain may be linear or branched, it
may comprise modified amino acids, and/or may be interrupted by
non-amino acids. The terms also encompass an amino acid chain that
has been modified naturally or by intervention; for example,
disulfide bond formation, glycosylation, lipidation, acetylation,
phosphorylation, or any other manipulation or modification, such as
conjugation with a labeling component. Also included within the
definition are, for example, polypeptides containing one or more
analogs of an amino acid (including, for example, unnatural amino
acids, etc.), as well as other modifications known in the art. It
is understood that the polypeptides can occur as single chains or
associated chains.
[0566] The term "bind", in the context of an antigen binding
protein of the invention (e.g., an antibody, or antigen-binding
fragment thereof) binding an amino acid on the antigen or binding
an epitope comprising an amino acid on the antigen, means an amino
acid residue of the antigen that participates in an electrostatic
interaction with the antigen binding protein, participates in a
hydrogen bond with the antigen binding protein, or participates in
a water-mediated hydrogen bond with the antigen binding protein, or
participates in a salt bridge with the antigen binding protein, or
it has a non-zero change in buried surface area due to interaction
with the antigen binding protein, and/or a heavy atom of the
antigen amino acid residue is located within 4 .ANG. of a heavy
atom of a residue of the antigen binding protein.
[0567] The term "compete", as used herein with regard to an
antibody, means that a first antibody, or an antigen-binding
portion thereof, binds to an epitope in a manner sufficiently
similar to the binding of a second antibody, an antigen-binding
portion thereof, or a ligand that is not an antibody such that the
result of binding of the first antibody with its cognate epitope is
detectably decreased in the presence of the second antibody
compared to the binding of the first antibody in the absence of the
second antibody. The alternative, where the binding of the second
antibody to its epitope is also detectably decreased in the
presence of the first antibody, can, but need not be the case. That
is, a first antibody can inhibit the binding of a second antibody
to its epitope without that second antibody inhibiting the binding
of the first antibody to its respective epitope. However, where
each antibody detectably inhibits the binding of the other antibody
with its cognate epitope or ligand, whether to the same, greater,
or lesser extent, the antibodies are said to "cross-compete" with
each other for binding of their respective epitope(s). Both
competing and cross-competing antibodies are encompassed by the
present invention. Regardless of the mechanism by which such
competition or cross-competition occurs (e.g., steric hindrance,
conformational change, or binding to a common epitope, or portion
thereof), the skilled artisan would appreciate, based upon the
teachings provided herein, that such competing and/or
cross-competing antibodies are encompassed and can be useful for
the methods disclosed herein.
[0568] "Contact residue" as used herein with respect to an antibody
or the antigen specifically bound thereby, refers to an amino acid
residue present on an antibody/antigen comprising at least one
heavy atom (i.e., not hydrogen) that is within 4 .ANG. or less of a
heavy atom of an amino acid residue present on the cognate
antibody/antigen.
[0569] As used herein, an antibody "interacts with" TL1A when the
equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) is equal to or less than 5
nM, preferably less than 1 nM, preferably less than 100 pM,
preferably less than about 50 pM, more preferably less than about
20 pM, most preferably less than about 10 pM, more preferably less
than about 5 pM, yet more preferably less than about 2 pM. The term
"dissociation constant" is sometimes used interchangeably with
"equilibrium dissociation constant", and refers to the value
obtained in a titration measurement at equilibrium, or by dividing
the dissociation rate constant (koff) by the association rate
constant (kon). The association rate constant, the dissociation
rate constant and the equilibrium dissociation constant are used to
represent the binding affinity of an antibody to an antigen.
Methods for determining association and dissociation rate constants
are well known in the art. Using fluorescence-based techniques
offers high sensitivity and the ability to examine samples in
physiological buffers at equilibrium. Other experimental approaches
and instruments such as a BIAcore.RTM. (biomolecular interaction
analysis) assay can be used (e.g., instrument available from
BIAcore International AB, a GE Healthcare company, Uppsala,
Sweden). Additionally, a KinExA.RTM. (Kinetic Exclusion Assay)
assay, available from Sapidyne Instruments (Boise, Id.) can also be
used. In one embodiment, the dissociation constant is measured
using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) method (Biacore). In certain
embodiments, the affinity is the KD value as measured by SPR. In
still other cases, the SPR uses a captured antibody, and solution
phase target. In some embodiments, the captured antibody is
immobilized onto a sensor chip using an anti-isotype antibody or
antigen binding portion thereof. For example, the anti-isotype
antibody or antigen binding portion thereof can be immobilized onto
the sensor chip to a density of between about 4,000 and about
13,000 response units. SPR measurement can also be performed, for
example, as substantially conducted according to the protocol set
out in Example 8. In some cases, the SPR uses a captured target,
and solution phase antibody. In some embodiments, the SPR
measurement is conducted using a Biacore T100 or T200 instrument.
In another embodiment, the dissociation constant is measured using
solution-based kinetic exclusion assay (KinExA). In other
embodiments, the affinity of the antibody or antigen-binding
fragment thereof for human TL1A is measured by solution-based
kinetic exclusion assay (KinExA). For example, in some cases, the
affinity is the KD value as measured by solution-based kinetic
exclusion assay (KinExA). In other cases, the KinExA uses a
captured target on a solid phase, and a solution phase antibody. In
still other cases, the antibody and target are pre-incubated in
solution long enough to reach equilibrium. In one embodiment, the
level of unbound antibody is measured after the antibody and target
have reached equilibrium. In a particular embodiment, the KinExA
measurement is conducted using a KinExA 3200 instrument (Sapidyne).
In one embodiment, the antibody interacts with TL1A when the
K.sub.D ranges from about 20 pM to about 1 pM, as measured by
KinExA. In one embodiment, the antibody interacts with TL1A with a
K.sub.D of about 1.38 pM as measured by KinExA.
[0570] A number of methodologies are available for the measurement
of binding affinity of an antibody to its antigens, one such
methodology is KinExA.TM.. The Kinetic Exclusion Assay (KinExA.TM.)
is a general purpose immunoassay platform (basically a flow
spectrofluorimeter) that is capable of measuring equilibrium
dissociation constants, and association and dissociation rate
constants for antigen/antibody interactions. Since KinExA.TM. is
performed after equilibrium has been obtained it is an advantageous
technique to use for measuring the KD of high affinity interactions
where the off-rate of the interaction may be very slow. The use of
KinExA.TM. is particularly appropriate in this case where the
affinity of antibody and antigen are higher than can be accurately
predicted by surface plasmon resonance analysis. The KinExA.TM.
methodology can be conducted generally as described in Drake et al
(2004) Analytical Biochemistry 328, 35-43, which is incorporated
herein by reference in its entirety, and also as detailed in the
Examples section. The term "surface plasmon resonance", as used
herein, refers to an optical phenomenon that allows for the
analysis of real-time biospecific interactions by detection of
alterations in protein concentrations within a biosensor matrix,
for example using the BIACORE.TM. system.
[0571] An antibody that "preferentially binds" or "specifically
binds" (used interchangeably herein) to an epitope is a term well
understood in the art, and methods to determine such specific or
preferential binding are also well known in the art. A molecule is
said to exhibit "specific binding" or "preferential binding" if it
reacts or associates more frequently, more rapidly, with greater
duration and/or with greater affinity with a particular cell or
substance than it does with alternative cells or substances. An
antibody "specifically binds" or "preferentially binds" to a target
if it binds with greater affinity, avidity, more readily, and/or
with greater duration than it binds to other substances. Also, an
antibody "specifically binds" or "preferentially binds" to a target
if it binds with greater affinity, avidity, more readily, and/or
with greater duration to that target in a sample than it binds to
other substances present in the sample. For example, an antibody
that specifically or preferentially binds to a TL1A epitope is an
antibody that binds this epitope with greater affinity, avidity,
more readily, and/or with greater duration than it binds to other
TL1A epitopes or non-TL1A epitopes. It is also understood by
reading this definition, for example, that an antibody (or moiety
or epitope) which specifically or preferentially binds to a first
target may or may not specifically or preferentially bind to a
second target. As such, "specific binding" or "preferential
binding" does not necessarily require (although it can include)
exclusive binding. Generally, but not necessarily, reference to
binding means preferential binding. "Specific binding" or
"preferential binding" includes a compound, e.g., a protein, a
nucleic acid, an antibody, and the like, which recognizes and binds
to a specific molecule, but does not substantially recognize or
bind other molecules in a sample. For instance, an antibody or a
peptide receptor which recognizes and binds to a cognate ligand or
binding partner (e.g., an anti-TL1A antibody that binds TL1A) in a
sample, but does not substantially recognize or bind other
molecules in the sample, specifically binds to that cognate ligand
or binding partner. Thus, under designated assay conditions, the
specified binding moiety (e.g., an antibody or an antigen-binding
portion thereof or a receptor or a ligand binding portion thereof)
binds preferentially to a particular target molecule and does not
bind in a significant amount to other components present in a test
sample.
[0572] A variety of assay formats may be used to select an antibody
or peptide that specifically binds a molecule of interest. For
example, solid-phase ELISA immunoassay, immunoprecipitation,
Biacore.TM. (GE Healthcare, Piscataway, N.J.), KinExA,
fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), Octet.TM. (ForteBio,
Inc., Menlo Park, Calif.) and Western blot analysis are among many
assays that may be used to identify an antibody that specifically
reacts with an antigen or a receptor, or ligand binding portion
thereof, that specifically binds with a cognate ligand or binding
partner. Typically, a specific or selective reaction will be at
least twice the background signal or noise, more typically more
than 10 times background, even more typically, more than 50 times
background, more typically, more than 100 times background, yet
more typically, more than 500 times background, even more
typically, more than 1000 times background, and even more
typically, more than 10,000 times background. Also, an antibody is
said to "specifically bind" an antigen when the equilibrium
dissociation constant (K.sub.D) is .ltoreq.1 pM, preferably
.ltoreq.100 nM, more preferably .ltoreq.10 nM, even more
preferably, yet more preferably, .ltoreq.1 nM, even more
preferably, .ltoreq.100 pM, yet more preferably, .ltoreq.10 pM, and
even more preferably, .ltoreq.1 pM.
[0573] The term "binding affinity" is herein used as a measure of
the strength of a non-covalent interaction between two molecules,
e.g., and antibody, or fragment thereof, and an antigen. The term
"binding affinity" is used to describe monovalent interactions
(intrinsic activity).
[0574] Binding affinity between two molecules, e.g. an antibody, or
fragment thereof, and an antigen, through a monovalent interaction
may be quantified by determination of the dissociation constant
(K.sub.D). In turn, K.sub.D can be determined by measurement of the
kinetics of complex formation and dissociation using, e.g., the
surface plasmon resonance (SPR) method (Biacore). The rate
constants corresponding to the association and the dissociation of
a monovalent complex are referred to as the association rate
constants k.sub.a (or k.sub.on) and dissociation rate constant
k.sub.d (or k.sub.off), respectively. K.sub.D is related to k.sub.a
and k.sub.d through the equation K.sub.D=k.sub.d/k.sub.a. The value
of the dissociation constant can be determined directly by
well-known methods, and can be computed even for complex mixtures
by methods such as those, for example, set forth in Caceci et al.
(1984, Byte 9: 340-362). For example, the K.sub.D may be
established using a double-filter nitrocellulose filter binding
assay such as that disclosed by Wong & Lohman (1993, Proc.
Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90: 5428-5432). Other standard assays to
evaluate the binding ability of ligands such as antibodies towards
target antigens are known in the art, including for example,
ELISAs, Western blots, RIAs, and flow cytometry analysis, and other
assays exemplified elsewhere herein. The binding kinetics and
binding affinity of the antibody also can be assessed by standard
assays known in the art, such as Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR),
e.g. by using a Biacore.TM. system, or KinExA.
[0575] A competitive binding assay can be conducted in which the
binding of the antibody to the antigen is compared to the binding
of the target by another ligand of that target, such as another
antibody or a soluble receptor that otherwise binds the target. The
concentration at which 50% inhibition occurs is known as the
K.sub.i. Under ideal conditions, the K.sub.i is equivalent to
K.sub.D. The .sub.Ki value will never be less than the K.sub.D, so
measurement of K.sub.i can conveniently be substituted to provide
an upper limit for K.sub.D.
[0576] Following the above definition, binding affinities
associated with different molecular interactions, e.g., comparison
of the binding affinity of different antibodies for a given
antigen, may be compared by comparison of the K.sub.D values for
the individual antibody/antigen complexes. K.sub.D values for
antibodies or other binding partners can be determined using
methods well established in the art. One method for determining the
K.sub.D is by using surface plasmon resonance, typically using a
biosensor system such as a Biacore.RTM. system.
[0577] Similarly, the specificity of an interaction may be assessed
by determination and comparison of the K.sub.D value for the
interaction of interest, e.g., a specific interaction between an
antibody and an antigen, with the K.sub.D value of an interaction
not of interest, e.g., a control antibody known not to bind
TL1A.
[0578] An antibody that specifically binds its target may bind its
target with a high affinity, that is, exhibiting a low K.sub.D as
discussed above, and may bind to other, non-target molecules with a
lower affinity. For example, the antibody may bind to non-target
molecules with a K.sub.D of 1.times.10.sup.-6M or more, more
preferably 1.times.10.sup.-5 M or more, more preferably
1.times.10.sup.-4 M or more, more preferably 1.times.10.sup.-3 M or
more, even more preferably 1.times.10.sup.-2 M or more. An antibody
or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention is preferably
capable of binding to its target with an affinity that is at least
two-fold, 10-fold, 50-fold, 100-fold 200-fold, 500-fold, 1,000-fold
or 10,000-fold or greater than its affinity for binding to another
non-TL1A molecule.
[0579] As known in the art, the term "Fc region" is used to define
a C-terminal region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain. The "Fc
region" may be a native sequence Fc region or a variant Fc region.
Although the boundaries of the Fc region of an immunoglobulin heavy
chain might vary, the human IgG heavy chain Fc region is usually
defined to stretch from an amino acid residue at position Cys226,
or from Pro230, to the carboxyl-terminus thereof. The numbering of
the residues in the Fc region is that of the EU index as described
in Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,
5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health,
Bethesda, Md., 1991. The Fc region of an immunoglobulin generally
comprises two constant domains, CH2 and CH3. As is known in the
art, an Fc region can be present in dimer or monomeric form.
[0580] As used herein, "Fc receptor" and "FcR" describe a receptor
that binds to the Fc region of an antibody. The preferred FcR is a
native sequence human FcR. Moreover, a preferred FcR is one which
binds an IgG antibody (a gamma receptor) and includes receptors of
the Fc.gamma.RI, Fc.gamma.RII, and Fc.gamma.RIII subclasses,
including allelic variants and alternatively spliced forms of these
receptors. Fc.gamma.RII receptors include Fc.gamma.RIIA (an
"activating receptor") and Fc.gamma.RIIB (an "inhibiting
receptor"), which have similar amino acid sequences that differ
primarily in the cytoplasmic domains thereof. FcRs are reviewed in
Ravetch and Kinet, 1991, Ann. Rev. Immunol., 9:457-92; Capel et
al., 1994, Immunomethods, 4:25-34; and de Haas et al., 1995, J.
Lab. Clin. Med., 126:330-41. "FcR" also includes the neonatal
receptor, FcRn, which is responsible for the transfer of maternal
IgGs to the fetus (Guyer et al., 1976, J. Immunol., 117:587; and
Kim et al., 1994, J. Immunol., 24:249).
[0581] A "functional Fc region" possesses at least one effector
function of a native sequence Fc region. Exemplary "effector
functions" include C1q binding; complement dependent cytotoxicity;
Fc receptor binding; antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity;
phagocytosis; down-regulation of cell surface receptors (e.g. B
cell receptor), etc. Such effector functions generally require the
Fc region to be combined with a binding domain (e.g. an antibody
variable domain or antigen-binding portion thereof) and can be
assessed using various assays known in the art for evaluating such
antibody effector functions.
[0582] A "native sequence Fc region" comprises an amino acid
sequence identical to the amino acid sequence of an Fc region found
in nature. A "variant Fc region" comprises an amino acid sequence
which differs from that of a native sequence Fc region by virtue of
at least one amino acid modification, yet retains at least one
effector function of the native sequence Fc region. Preferably, the
variant Fc region has at least one amino acid substitution compared
to a native sequence Fc region or to the Fc region of a parent
polypeptide, e.g. from about one to about ten amino acid
substitutions, and preferably, from about one to about five amino
acid substitutions in a native sequence Fc region or in the Fc
region of the parent polypeptide. The variant Fc region herein will
preferably possess at least about 80% sequence identity with a
native sequence Fc region and/or with an Fc region of a parent
polypeptide, and most preferably, at least about 90% sequence
identity therewith, more preferably, at least about 95%, at least
about 96%, at least about 97%, at least about 98%, at least about
99% sequence identity therewith.
[0583] As known in the art, "polynucleotide," or "nucleic acid," as
used interchangeably herein, refer to chains of nucleotides of any
length, and include DNA and RNA. The nucleotides can be
deoxyribonucleotides, ribonucleotides, modified nucleotides or
bases, and/or their analogs, or any substrate that can be
incorporated into a chain by DNA or RNA polymerase. A
polynucleotide may comprise modified nucleotides, such as
methylated nucleotides and their analogs. If present, modification
to the nucleotide structure may be imparted before or after
assembly of the chain. The sequence of nucleotides may be
interrupted by non-nucleotide components. A polynucleotide may be
further modified after polymerization, such as by conjugation with
a labeling component. Other types of modifications include, for
example, "caps", substitution of one or more of the naturally
occurring nucleotides with an analog, internucleotide modifications
such as, for example, those with uncharged linkages (e.g., methyl
phosphonates, phosphotriesters, phosphoamidates, carbamates, etc.)
and with charged linkages (e.g., phosphorothioates,
phosphorodithioates, etc.), those containing pendant moieties, such
as, for example, proteins (e.g., nucleases, toxins, antibodies,
signal peptides, poly-L-lysine, etc.), those with intercalators
(e.g., acridine, psoralen, etc.), those containing chelators (e.g.,
metals, radioactive metals, boron, oxidative metals, etc.), those
containing alkylators, those with modified linkages (e.g., alpha
anomeric nucleic acids, etc.), as well as unmodified forms of the
polynucleotide(s). Further, any of the hydroxyl groups ordinarily
present in the sugars may be replaced, for example, by phosphonate
groups, phosphate groups, protected by standard protecting groups,
or activated to prepare additional linkages to additional
nucleotides, or may be conjugated to solid supports. The 5' and 3'
terminal OH can be phosphorylated or substituted with amines or
organic capping group moieties of from 1 to 20 carbon atoms. Other
hydroxyls may also be derivatized to standard protecting groups.
Polynucleotides can also contain analogous forms of ribose or
deoxyribose sugars that are generally known in the art, including,
for example, 2'-O-methyl-, 2'-O-allyl, 2'-fluoro- or
2'-azido-ribose, carbocyclic sugar analogs, alpha- or beta-anomeric
sugars, epimeric sugars such as arabinose, xyloses or lyxoses,
pyranose sugars, furanose sugars, sedoheptuloses, acyclic analogs
and abasic nucleoside analogs such as methyl riboside. One or more
phosphodiester linkages may be replaced by alternative linking
groups. These alternative linking groups include, but are not
limited to, embodiments wherein phosphate is replaced by
P(O)S("thioate"), P(S)S ("dithioate"), (O)NR.sub.2 ("amidate"),
P(O)R, P(O)OR', CO or CH.sub.2 ("formacetal"), in which each R or
R' is independently H or substituted or unsubstituted alkyl (1-20
C) optionally containing an ether (--O--) linkage, aryl, alkenyl,
cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl or araldyl. Not all linkages in a
polynucleotide need be identical. The preceding description applies
to all polynucleotides referred to herein, including RNA and
DNA.
[0584] As used herein, "vector" means a construct, which is capable
of delivering, and, preferably, expressing, one or more gene(s) or
sequence(s) of interest in a host cell. Examples of vectors
include, but are not limited to, viral vectors, naked DNA or RNA
expression vectors, plasmid, cosmid or phage vectors, DNA or RNA
expression vectors associated with cationic condensing agents, DNA
or RNA expression vectors encapsulated in liposomes, and certain
eukaryotic cells, such as producer cells.
[0585] As used herein, "expression control sequence" means a
nucleic acid sequence that directs transcription of a nucleic acid.
An expression control sequence can be a promoter, such as a
constitutive or an inducible promoter, or an enhancer. The
expression control sequence is operably linked to the nucleic acid
sequence to be transcribed.
[0586] A "host cell" includes an individual cell or cell culture
that can be or has been a recipient for vector(s) for incorporation
of polynucleotide inserts. Host cells include progeny of a single
host cell, and the progeny may not necessarily be completely
identical (in morphology or in genomic DNA complement) to the
original parent cell due to natural, accidental, or deliberate
mutation. A host cell includes cells transfected and/or transformed
in vivo with a polynucleotide of this invention.
[0587] As used herein, "treatment" is an approach for obtaining
beneficial or desired clinical results. For purposes of this
invention, beneficial or desired clinical results include, but are
not limited to, one or more of the following: improved survival
rate (reduced mortality), reduction in inflammatory response to the
disease, reduction in the amount of tissue fibrosis, improvement in
the appearance of the disease lesions, limitation of the
pathological lesions to focal sites, decreased extent of damage
from the disease, decreased duration of the disease, and/or
reduction in the number, extent, or duration of symptoms related to
the disease. The term includes the administration of the compounds
or agents of the present invention to prevent or delay the onset of
the symptoms, complications, or biochemical indicia of a disease,
alleviating the symptoms or arresting or inhibiting further
development of the disease, condition, or disorder. Treatment may
be prophylactic (to prevent or delay the onset of the disease, or
to prevent the manifestation of clinical or subclinical symptoms
thereof) or therapeutic suppression or alleviation of symptoms
after the manifestation of the disease.
[0588] "Ameliorating" means a lessening or improvement of one or
more symptoms as compared to not administering a TL1A antibody.
"Ameliorating" also includes shortening or reduction in duration of
a symptom.
[0589] As used herein, an "effective dosage" or "effective amount"
of drug, compound, or pharmaceutical composition is an amount
sufficient to affect any one or more beneficial or desired results.
In more specific aspects, an effective amount prevents, alleviates
or ameliorates symptoms of disease or infection, and/or prolongs
the survival of the subject being treated. For prophylactic use,
beneficial or desired results include eliminating or reducing the
risk, lessening the severity, or delaying the outset of the
disease, including biochemical, histological and/or behavioral
symptoms of the disease, its complications and intermediate
pathological phenotypes presenting during development of the
disease. For therapeutic use, beneficial or desired results include
clinical results such as reducing one or more symptoms of a TL1A
mediated disease, disorder or condition, decreasing the dose of
other medications required to treat the disease, enhancing the
effect of another medication, and/or delaying the progression of
the disease of patients. An effective dosage can be administered in
one or more administrations. For purposes of this invention, an
effective dosage of drug, compound, or pharmaceutical composition
is an amount sufficient to accomplish prophylactic or therapeutic
treatment either directly or indirectly. As is understood in the
clinical context, an effective dosage of a drug, compound, or
pharmaceutical composition may or may not be achieved in
conjunction with another drug, compound, or pharmaceutical
composition. Thus, an "effective dosage" may be considered in the
context of administering one or more therapeutic agents, and a
single agent may be considered to be given in an effective amount
if, in conjunction with one or more other agents, a desirable
result may be or is achieved.
[0590] An "individual" or a "subject" is a mammal, more preferably,
a human. Mammals also include, but are not limited to, farm animals
(e.g., cows, pigs, horses, chickens, etc.), sport animals, pets,
primates, horses, dogs, cats, mice and rats. In some embodiments,
the individual is considered to be at risk for a disease, disorder
or condition mediated by or associated with TL1A binding to its
receptor and signaling mediated thereby.
[0591] As used herein, "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" or
"pharmaceutical acceptable excipient" includes any material which,
when combined with an active ingredient, allows the ingredient to
retain biological activity and is non-reactive with the subject's
immune system. Examples include, but are not limited to, any of the
standard pharmaceutical carriers such as a phosphate buffered
saline solution, water, emulsions such as oil/water emulsion, and
various types of wetting agents. Preferred diluents for aerosol or
parenteral administration are phosphate buffered saline (PBS) or
normal (0.9%) saline. Compositions comprising such carriers are
formulated by well known conventional methods (see, for example,
Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th edition, A. Gennaro, ed.,
Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pa., 1990; and Remington, The Science
and Practice of Pharmacy 20th Ed. Mack Publishing, 2000).
[0592] Reference to "about" a value or parameter herein includes
(and describes) embodiments that are directed to that value or
parameter per se. For example, description referring to "about X"
includes description of "X." Numeric ranges are inclusive of the
numbers defining the range. Generally speaking, the term "about"
refers to the indicated value of the variable and to all values of
the variable that are within the experimental error of the
indicated value (e.g. within the 95% confidence interval for the
mean) or within 10 percent of the indicated value, whichever is
greater. Where the term "about" is used within the context of a
time period (years, months, weeks, days etc.), the term "about"
means that period of time plus or minus one amount of the next
subordinate time period (e.g. about 1 year means 11-13 months;
about 6 months means 6 months plus or minus 1 week; about 1 week
means 6-8 days; etc.), or within 10 percent of the indicated value,
whichever is greater.
[0593] Notwithstanding that the numerical ranges and parameters
setting forth the broad scope of the invention are approximations,
the numerical values set forth in the specific examples are
reported as precisely as possible. Any numerical value, however,
inherently contains certain errors necessarily resulting from the
standard deviation found in their respective testing measurements.
Moreover, all ranges disclosed herein are to be understood to
encompass any and all subranges subsumed therein. For example, a
stated range of "1 to 10" should be considered to include any and
all subranges between (and inclusive of) the minimum value of 1 and
the maximum value of 10; that is, all subranges beginning with a
minimum value of 1 or more, e.g. 1 to 6.1, and ending with a
maximum value of 10 or less, e.g., 5.5 to 10.
[0594] It is understood that wherever embodiments are described
herein with the language "comprising," otherwise analogous
embodiments described in terms of "consisting of" and/or
"consisting essentially of" are also provided. Throughout this
specification and claims, the word "comprise," or variations such
as "comprises" or "comprising" will be understood to imply the
inclusion of a stated integer or group of integers but not the
exclusion of any other integer or group of integers. Unless
otherwise required by context, singular terms shall include
pluralities and plural terms shall include the singular. Any
example(s) following the term "e.g." or "for example" is not meant
to be exhaustive or limiting.
[0595] Where aspects or embodiments of the invention are described
in terms of a Markush group or other grouping of alternatives, the
present invention encompasses not only the entire group listed as a
whole, but each member of the group individually and all possible
subgroups of the main group, but also the main group absent one or
more of the group members. The present invention also envisages the
explicit exclusion of one or more of any of the group members in
the claimed invention.
[0596] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms
used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of
ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. In case
of conflict, the present specification, including definitions, will
control.
[0597] Exemplary methods and materials are described herein,
although methods and materials similar or equivalent to those
described herein can also be used in the practice or testing of the
present invention. The materials, methods, and examples are
illustrative only and not intended to be limiting.
TL1A Antibodies
[0598] The present invention relates to antibodies that bind to
TL1A. The antibodies preferably specifically bind to TL1A. In
particular, the invention relates to antibodies that bind to TL1A
and that modulate its activity. For example, an antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention may have the
ability to decrease or inhibit binding of TL1A to its receptor DR3
and thereby to reduce or inhibit downstream receptor signaling. The
invention also relates to compositions comprising such antibodies
as well as uses for such antibodies, including therapeutic and
pharmaceutical uses.
[0599] By the term "TL1A" is meant any naturally occurring form of
TL1A, whether monomeric or multimeric, including dimers, trimers,
etc., which may be derived from any suitable organism. As used
herein, "TL1A" refers to a mammalian TL1A, such as human, rat or
mouse, as well as non-human primate, bovine, ovine, or porcine
TL1A. Preferably, the TL1A is human (see, e.g., Genbank Accession
Number NP_005109, SEQ ID NO:258). The term "TL1A" also encompasses
fragments, variants, isoforms, and other homologs of such TL1A
molecules. Variant TL1A molecules will generally be characterized
by having the same type of activity as naturally occurring TL1A,
such as the ability to bind DR3, and the ability to induce
receptor-mediated activity.
[0600] The TL1A may be in homomultimeric form. The homomultimer may
comprise two, three, four, five, six or more TL1A monomer units. In
some aspects, the homomultimer may be a homodimer or homotrimer. In
some aspects, there are 3 TL1A monomers in the homomultimer, and
the TL1A homomultimer is a homotrimer. In some aspects, there are 2
TL1A monomers in the TL1A homomultimer, and the homomultimer is a
homodimer.
[0601] The TL1A may comprise one or more, two or more, three or
more, four or more, five or more, six or more, seven or more, eight
or more, nine or more, ten or more, twelve or more or fifteen or
more surface accessible residues of TL1A. Where the TL1A comprises
a homomultimeric form of TL1A, the target may comprise one or more,
two or more, three or more, four or more, five or more, six or
more, seven or more, eight or more, nine or more, ten or more,
twelve or more, or fifteen or more surface accessible residues of a
first subunit of TL1A, and one or more, two or more, three or more,
four or more, five or more, six or more, seven or more, eight or
more, nine or more, ten or more, twelve or more, or fifteen or more
surface accessible residues of a second subunit of TL1A.
[0602] The target molecule may comprise a known epitope from
TL1A.
[0603] The antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the
invention specifically binds TL1A and inhibits its interaction with
DR3, thereby inhibiting TL1A activity. By the terms "TL1A mediated
activity," "TL1A mediated effect," "TL1A activity," "TL1A
biological activity" or "TL1A function," as used interchangeably
herein, is meant any activity mediated by TL1A interaction with a
cognate receptor including, but not limited to, TL1A binding to
DR3, through binding of DR3, activation of downstream
expression/secretion of cytokines, especially pro-inflammatory
cytokines, such as INF.gamma., IL-6, TNF-.alpha., IL-17, IL-22,
IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, IL-25, and other cytokines that well known to
persons killed in the art, any other activity of TL1A either known
in the art or to be elucidated in the future.
[0604] Thus, the methods of the invention use the TL1A antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention that blocks,
suppresses or reduces (e.g., significantly reduces) TL1A activity,
including downstream events mediated by TL1A binding to its
receptor, DR3. A TL1A antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof
of the invention can exhibit any one or more of the following
characteristics: (a) specifically bind to TL1A; (b) block TL1A
interaction with its receptor DR3; (c)block, suppress or reduce
downstream signaling events that are activated by DR3; and (d)
block suppress or reduce any other TL1A activity of TL1A-mediated
activity.
[0605] In one embodiment, the disclosure provides any of the
following, or compositions (including pharmaceutical compositions)
comprising, an antibody having a light chain sequence, or a portion
thereof, and a heavy chain, or a portion thereof, derived from any
of the following antibodies: 1D1, 1D1 1.27, 1D1 1.28, 1D1 1.29, 1D1
1.30, 1D1 1.31, 1D1 1.32, 1D1 1.33, 1D1 1.34, 15A9, 15C11, 7D4,
22F9, 9B3, 2B11.
[0606] The antibodies useful in the present invention can encompass
monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, antibody fragments
(e.g., Fab, Fab', F(ab').sub.2, Fv, Fc, etc.), chimeric antibodies,
bispecific antibodies, heteroconjugate antibodies, single chain
(ScFv), mutants thereof, fusion proteins comprising an antibody
portion (e.g., a domain antibody), humanized antibodies, and any
other modified configuration of the immunoglobulin molecule that
comprises an antigen recognition site of the required specificity,
including glycosylation variants of antibodies, amino acid sequence
variants of antibodies, and covalently modified antibodies. The
antibodies may be murine, rat, human, or any other origin
(including chimeric or humanized antibodies). In some embodiments,
the TL1A antibody is a monoclonal antibody. In some embodiments,
the antibody is a chimeric, humanized or human antibody. In a
particular embodiment, the antibody is a human antibody.
[0607] In some cases, antibodies of the present invention are
defined by the complementarity determining regions ("CDRs"). In
certain cases, the CDRs are in a human variable domain. In another
embodiment, the CDRs are within a humanized variable domain. In
still other embodiments, the CDRs are within a chimeric variable
domain. The antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof according
to the present invention includes an antibody or antigen-binding
fragment thereof of any class, such as IgG, IgA, IgE or IgM (or
sub-class thereof). In one embodiment, the antibody is an IgG,
including any of the major subclasses (e.g., IgG.sub.1, IgG.sub.2,
IgG.sub.3, IgG.sub.4). In one embodiment, the antibody is of the
subtype IgG.sub.1. In another embodiment, the antibody is of the
subtype IgG.sub.2. In other cases, the antibody can be of the
IgG.sub.3 subtype. In still other cases, the antibody can be
IgG.sub.4. In other cases, the antibody can be an IgA antibody,
including any of its subtypes. In one embodiment, the antibody is
IgA.sub.1. In another embodiment, the antibody is IgA.sub.2.
[0608] In one embodiment, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof according to the present invention comprises a variable
region which comprises framework regions, wherein the framework
regions are selected from the group consisting of IgG, IgA, IgM IgE
and IgD framework regions. In another embodiment, the antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof according to the present invention
comprises a variable region which comprises framework regions,
wherein the framework regions are selected from the group
consisting of IgG.sub.1, IgG.sub.2, IgG.sub.3, IgG.sub.4 framework
regions. In still another embodiment, the antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof according to the present invention
comprises a variable region which comprises framework regions,
wherein the framework regions are selected from the group
consisting of a human, humanized and chimeric framework region.
[0609] The TL1A antibodies of the invention may be made by any
method known in the art. General techniques for production of human
and mouse antibodies are known in the art and/or are described
herein.
[0610] Methods known in the art can be employed to detect and/or
measure a reduction, amelioration, or neutralization in TL1A
activity mediated by the antibodies or antigen binding fragments
described herein. In some embodiments, a TL1A antibody is
identified by incubating a candidate agent (e.g., DR3) with TL1A
and monitoring binding and/or attendant reduction or inhibition of
a biological activity of TL1A. The binding assay may be performed
with, e.g., purified TL1A polypeptide(s), or with cells naturally
expressing various receptors, or transfected to express, TL1A
receptors. In one embodiment, the binding assay is a competitive
binding assay, where the ability of a candidate antibody to compete
with a known TL1A antibody for TL1A binding is evaluated. The assay
may be performed in various formats, including the ELISA format. In
some embodiments, a TL1A antibody is identified by incubating a
candidate antibody with TL1A and monitoring binding. In some
embodiments, a TL1A antibody is identified by incubating a
candidate antibody (e.g., a human anti-TL1A antibody) with TL1A and
monitoring the binding of a second TL1A antibody to TL1A to assess
whether one antibody competes for binding of TL1A with the second
antibody.
[0611] In addition, the activity of a candidate TL1A antibody can
be measured by bioassays known to test the targeted biological
activities. In some embodiments, an in vitro cell assay is used to
further characterize a candidate TL1A antibody. For example,
bioassays can be used to screen candidates directly. Some of the
methods for identifying and characterizing TL1A antibody are
described in detail in the Examples.
[0612] As discussed above, the TL1A antibodies of the invention
exhibit one or more of the following characteristics: (a)
specifically bind to TL1A; (b) block TL1A interaction with its
receptor, DR3, and (c) attenuate or block downstream signaling
events. Preferably, a TL1A antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof of the invention has at least one of these features, more
preferably, the antibody has two or more of these features. More
preferably, the antibodies have all of the features.
TL1A Epitopes
[0613] TL1A antibodies may be characterized using additional
methods well known in the art. For example, one method is to
identify the epitope to which it binds, or "epitope mapping." There
are many methods known in the art for mapping and characterizing
the location of epitopes on proteins, including solving the crystal
structure of an antibody-antigen complex, competition assays, gene
fragment expression assays, and synthetic peptide-based assays, as
described, for example, in Chapter 11 of Harlow and Lane, Using
Antibodies, a Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory
Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y., 1999. In an additional example,
epitope mapping can be used to determine the sequence to which TL1A
antibody binds. Epitope mapping is commercially available from
various sources, for example, Pepscan Systems (Edelhertweg 15, 8219
PH Lelystad, The Netherlands). The epitope can be a linear epitope,
i.e., contained in a single stretch of amino acids, or a
conformational epitope formed by a three-dimensional interaction of
amino acids that may not necessarily be contained in a single
stretch. Peptides of varying lengths (e.g., at least 4-6 amino
acids long) can be isolated or synthesized (e.g., recombinantly)
and used for binding assays with TL1A antibody. In another example,
the epitope to which the TL1A antibody binds can be determined in a
systematic screening by using overlapping peptides derived from the
TL1A sequence and determining binding by the antibody. According to
the gene fragment expression assays, the open reading frame
encoding TL1A can be fragmented either randomly or by specific
genetic constructions and the reactivity of the expressed fragments
of TL1A with the antibody to be tested is determined. The gene
fragments may, for example, be produced by PCR and then transcribed
and translated into protein in vitro, in the presence of
radioactive amino acids. The binding of the antibody to the
radioactively labeled TL1A fragments is then determined by
immunoprecipitation and gel electrophoresis. Certain epitopes can
also be identified by using large libraries of random peptide
sequences displayed on the surface of phage particles (phage
libraries) or yeast (yeast display). Alternatively, a defined
library of overlapping peptide fragments can be tested for binding
to the test antibody in simple binding assays. In an additional
example, mutagenesis of an antigen, domain swapping experiments and
alanine scanning mutagenesis can be performed to identify residues
required, sufficient, and/or necessary for epitope binding. For
example, alanine scanning mutagenesis experiments can be performed
using a mutant TL1A in which various residues of the TL1A
polypeptide have been replaced with alanine. By assessing binding
of the antibody to the mutant TL1A, the importance of the
particular TL1A residues to antibody binding can be assessed.
[0614] Yet another method which can be used to characterize a TL1A
antibody is to use competition assays with other antibodies known
to bind to the same antigen, i.e., various fragments on TL1A, to
determine if the TL1A antibody binds to the same epitope as other
antibodies. Competition assays are well known to those of skill in
the art.
[0615] Further, the epitope for a given antibody/antigen binding
pair can be defined and characterized at different levels of detail
using a variety of experimental and computational epitope mapping
methods. The experimental methods include mutagenesis, X-ray
crystallography, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy,
hydrogen/deuterium exchange Mass Spectrometry (H/D-MS) and various
competition binding methods well-known in the art. As each method
relies on a unique principle, the description of an epitope is
intimately linked to the method by which it has been determined.
Thus, the epitope for a given antibody/antigen pair will be defined
differently depending on the epitope mapping method employed.
[0616] At its most detailed level, the epitope for the interaction
between the Ag and the Ab can be defined by the spatial coordinates
defining the atomic contacts present in the Ag-Ab interaction, as
well as information about their relative contributions to the
binding thermodynamics. At a less detailed level the epitope can be
characterized by the spatial coordinates defining the atomic
contacts between the Ag and Ab. At a further less detailed level
the epitope can be characterized by the amino acid residues that it
comprises as defined by a specific criterium, e.g., by distance
between atoms (e.g., heavy, i.e., non-hydrogen atoms) in the Ab and
the Ag. At a further less detailed level the epitope can be
characterized through function, e.g. by competition binding with
other Abs. The epitope can also be defined more generically as
comprising amino acid residues for which substitution by another
amino acid will alter the characteristics of the interaction
between the Ab and Ag (e.g. using alanine scanning).
[0617] In the context of an X-ray derived crystal structure defined
by spatial coordinates of a complex between an antibody, e.g., a
Fab fragment, and its Ag, the term epitope is herein, unless
otherwise specified or contradicted by context, specifically
defined as TL1A residues characterized by having a heavy atom (i.e.
a non-hydrogen atom) within a distance of 4 {acute over (.ANG.)}
from a heavy atom in the Ab. Alternatively, a given TL1A amino acid
residue is considered to be part of an epitope if it participates
in a hydrogen bond with the antibody or with a water molecule that
is also hydrogen bonded to the antibody (water-mediated hydrogen
bonding) or it participates in a salt bridge to a residue on the
antibody, or if it has a non-zero change in buried surface area due
to interaction with the antibody. Alternatively, a given TL1A amino
acid residue is considered to be part of an epitope if it
participates in a hydrogen bond with the antibody, or if it is
hydrogen bonded with a water molecule that is also hydrogen bonded
to the antibody (water-mediated hydrogen bonding), or if it
participates in a salt bridge with a residue on the antibody, or if
it has a non-zero change in buried surface area due to interaction
with the antibody. Thus, an amino acid on the antibody is
considered to "bind" an amino acid on TL1A if at least one of these
conditions is satisfied, e.g., the TL1A amino acid residue has a
heavy atom within 4 {acute over (.ANG.)} from a heavy atom on an
amino acid residue of the antibody, the TL1A amino acid residue
participates in a hydrogen bond with an amino acid residue of the
antibody, the TL1A amino acid residue is hydrogen bonded with a
water molecule where the same water molecule is also hydrogen
bonded with an amino acid residue of the antibody, the TL1A amino
acid residue participates in a salt bridge with an amino acid
residue of the antibody, and the TL1A amino acid residue has a
non-zero change in buried surface area due to interaction with the
antibody.
[0618] From the fact that descriptions and definitions of epitopes,
dependent on the epitope mapping method used, are obtained at
different levels of detail, it follows that comparison of epitopes
for different Abs on the same Ag can similarly be conducted at
different levels of detail.
[0619] Epitopes described at the amino acid level, e.g., determined
from an X-ray structure, are said to be identical if they contain
the same set of amino acid residues. Epitopes are said to overlap
if at least one amino acid is shared by the epitopes. Epitopes are
said to be separate (unique) if no amino acid residue is shared by
the epitopes.
[0620] Epitopes characterized by competition binding are said to be
overlapping if the binding of the corresponding antibodies are
mutually exclusive, i.e., binding of one antibody excludes
simultaneous or consecutive binding of the other antibody. The
epitopes are said to be separate (unique) if the antigen is able to
accommodate binding of both corresponding antibodies
simultaneously.
[0621] The definition of the term "paratope" is derived from the
above definition of "epitope" by reversing the perspective. Thus,
the term "paratope" refers to the area or region on the antibody
which specifically binds an antigen, i.e., the amino acid residues
on the antibody which make contact with the antigen (TL1A) as
"contact" is defined elsewhere herein.
[0622] In the context of an X-ray derived crystal structure defined
by spatial coordinates of a complex between an antibody, e.g., a
Fab fragment or two Fab fragments, and its antigen, the term
paratope is herein, unless otherwise specified or contradicted by
context, specifically defined as antigen residues characterized by
having a heavy atom (i.e., a non-hydrogen atom) within a distance
of 4 .ANG. from a heavy atom in TL1A. Alternatively or
additionally, a given TL1A amino acid residue is considered to be
part of an epitope if it participates in a hydrogen bond with the
antibody or with a water molecule that is also hydrogen bonded to
the antibody (water-mediated hydrogen bonding) or if it
participates in a salt bridge to a residue on the antibody, or if
it has a non-zero change in buried surface area due to interaction
with the antibody. Any amino acids according to the foregoing are
said to "contact" each other.
[0623] The epitope and paratope for a given antibody/antigen pair
may be identified by routine methods. For example, the general
location of an epitope may be determined by assessing the ability
of an antibody to bind to different fragments or variant TL1A
polypeptides. The specific amino acids within TL1A that make
contact with an antibody (epitope) and the specific amino acids in
an antibody that make contact with TL1A (paratope) may also be
determined using routine methods, such as those described in the
examples. For example, the antibody and target molecule may be
combined and the antibody/antigen complex may be crystallized. The
crystal structure of the complex may be determined and used to
identify specific sites of interaction between the antibody and its
target.
[0624] An antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof according to
the current invention may bind to the same epitope or domain of
TL1A as the antibodies of the invention that are specifically
disclosed herein. For example, other yet unidentified antibodies of
the invention may be identified by comparing their binding to TL1A
with that of any of the following monoclonal antibodies: 1D1, 1D1
1.27, 1D1 1.28, 1D1 1.29, 1D1 1.30, 1D1 1.31, 1D1 1.32, 1D1 1.33,
1D1 1.34, 15A9, 15C11, 7D4, 22F9, 9B3, 2B11, and variants thereof;
or by comparing the function of yet unidentified antibodies with
that of the antibodies described herein; and/or by comparing the
epitope/contact residues on TL1A of yet unidentified antibodies
with those of the antibodies of the invention. Analyses and assays
that may be used for the purpose of such identification include
assays assessing the competition for binding of TL1A between the
antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of interest and DR3,
in biological activity assays as described in Examples 10-14, and
in analysis of the crystal structure of the antibody.
[0625] As disclosed herein, such a crystal structure analysis was
carried out for the interaction between the 1D1 parental antibody
and TL1A, and variant antibody 1D1 1.31 and TL1A. This analysis is
described in more detail in the examples. The binding epitope of
antibody 1D1 and TL1A, and antibody 1D1 1.31 and TL1A, were mapped
as also described in further detail in the examples.
[0626] Disclosed herein are also detailed interactions between TL1A
and its natural ligand, DR3. As such, antibodies which "contact"
TL1A at the same amino acid residues as DR3 would be expected to
interfere with the interaction between TL1A and DR3. As such, in
some embodiments, a TL1A epitope bound by the antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of the present invention
encompasses one or more of the TL1A residues selected from T30
(T100), V31 (V101), V32 (V102), R33 (R103), E50 (E120), L53 (L123),
G54 (G124), R86 (R156), G87 (G157), M88 (M158), S136 (S206), N137
(N207), F139 (F209), S164 (S234), L165 (L235), Y168 (Y238), T169
(T239), K170 (K240), E171 (E241), N42 (N112), F44 (F114), K103
(K173), P104 (P174), D105 (D175), S106 (S176), S117 (S187), Y118
(Y188), P119 (P189), E120 (E190), Q151 (Q221), according to the
numbering of the amino acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID
NO:254 [numbering of SEQ ID NO: 258 in parenthesis].
[0627] As shown in Table 42, which displays the amino acids of TL1A
that interact with the ligand DR3 and antibodies 1D1 1.31, 1D1,
26B11 and 7B4, several antibodies described herein interact with
the same amino acids as those which interact with the ligand DR3.
Therefore, in a particular embodiment, a TL1A epitope bound by the
antibody encompasses one or more of the TL1A residues selected from
the group consisting of: V31 (V101), V32 (V102), R33 (R103), E50
(E120), L53 (L123), G54 (G124), R86 (R156), G87 (G157), M88 (M158),
S136 (S206), N137 (N207), S164 (S234), L165 (L235), Y168 (Y238),
T169 (T239), K170 (K240), E171 (E241), S117 (S187), Y118 (Y188),
P119 (P189), and Q151 (Q221), according to the numbering of the
amino acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID NO:254
[numbering of SEQ ID NO: 258 in parenthesis].
[0628] As depicted in FIG. 5, in some embodiments, TL1A antibodies
1D1 and 1D1 1.31 bind to a TL1A homotrimer between two TL1A
monomers. Accordingly, a single 1D1 or 1D1 1.31 may bind to two
TL1A monomers simultaneously, and a single antibody is unlikely to
bind to all of the epitope residues on a single TL1A monomer.
Alternatively, it is possible that one TL1A antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention may bind some of
the epitopes on a TL1A protein, while another TL1A antibody binds
the other epitopes.
[0629] Thus, in some embodiments, the TL1A epitope bound by the
antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention
encompasses one or more of the TL1A residues selected from K113,
T115, S117, Y118, P119, P121, T122, Q123, M147, F148, S149, Q151,
V31, V32, R33, E50, H51, E52, L53, G54, L55, A56, F57, T58, E91,
Y168, T169, K170, and E171, according to the numbering of the amino
acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID NO:254. Given the
geometry of the binding of antibodies 1D1 and 1D1 1.31 to TL1A
between two TL1A monomers, some of the binding residues are found
on the first monomer (also called monomer A of chain A of TL1A),
and other binding residues are found on the second monomer (also
called monomer B or chain B or TL1A). In particular, one or more of
the TL1A binding epitope residues on monomer A are selected from
K113, T115, S117, Y118, P119, P121, T122, Q123, M147, F148, S149,
and Q151, and one or more TL1A binding epitope residues on monomer
B are selected from V31, V32, R33, E50, H51, E52, L53, G54, L55,
A56, F57, T58, E91, Y168, T169, K170, and E171. In some embodiment,
the epitopes found on monomer A are bound by one TL1A antibody,
while the epitopes found on monomer B are bound another TL1A
antibody.
[0630] In another embodiment, a TL1A antibody or antigen-binding
fragment thereof of the disclosure binds to an epitope on TL1A
comprising one or more of the TL1A residues selected from K113,

SEQ ID NO:254), wherein one or more of the TL1A binding epitope
residues on monomer A are selected from the group consisting of
K113, Y118, T122, Q123, M147, F148, S149, Q151, according to the
numbering of the amino acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID
NO:254, and wherein one or more of the TL1A binding epitope
residues on monomer B are selected from the group consisting of
V31, V32, R33, E50, H51, E52, L53, G54, L55, A56, F57, Y168, T169,
K170, and E171, according to the numbering of the amino acid
sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID NO:254.
[0631] In a further embodiment, the TL1A epitope may comprise amino
acid residues selected from the group consisting of K113, Y118,

surrounding the residue is greater than 20 .ANG..sup.2 when bound
to a TL1A antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the
invention.
[0632] In another embodiment, the TL1A epitope may comprise amino

.ANG..sup.2 when bound to a TL1A antibody or antigen-binding

[0647] In yet another embodiment, the antibody 1D1 1.31 binds to an
epitope on TL1A comprising one or more of the TL1A residues
selected from K113, Y118, P119, T122, Q123, F148, S149, V31, V32,

set forth in SEQ ID NO:254; wherein the residues are found within
3.8 .ANG. of antibody 1D1 1.31 when bound TL1A is found with

[0648] In a further embodiment, the antibody 1D1 comprises a
paratope encompassing one or more heavy chain variable domain
residues selected from Gly26, Tyr27, Ser28, Thr30, Tyr31, Trp50,
Tyr53, Asn54, Asn56, Asn58, Thr73, Arg76, Tyr97, Gly99, Ser100,

respect to the sequence of SEQ ID NO:104, and one or more light
chain variable domain residues selected from Tyr32 and Trp94 based
on Kabat numbering with respect to the sequence of SEQ ID
NO:102.
[0649] In yet another embodiment, the antibody 1D1 1.31 comprises a
paratope encompassing one or more heavy chain variable domain
residues selected from Gly26, Asp28, Thr30, Tyr31, Trp50, Tyr53,
Asn54, Asn56, His58, Thr73, Arg76, Tyr97, Gly99, Ser100, Gly100A,
Ser100D, and Arg100D, based on Kabat numbering with respect to the
sequence of SEQ ID NO:104, and one or more light chain variable
domain residues selected from Tyr32 and Trp94 based on Kabat
numbering with respect to the sequence of SEQ ID NO:102.
[0650] An antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the
invention may have the ability to compete or cross-compete with
another antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the
invention for binding to TL1A as described herein. For example, an
antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention may
compete or cross-compete with antibodies described herein for
binding to TL1A, or to a suitable fragment or variant of TL1A that
is bound by the antibodies disclosed herein.
[0651] That is, if a first antibody competes with a second antibody
for binding to TL1A, but it does not compete where the second
antibody is first bound to TL1A, it is still deemed to compete with
the second antibody (also referred to as unidirectional
competition). Where an antibody competes with another antibody
regardless of which antibody is first bound to TL1A, then the
antibody cross-competes for binding to TL1A with the other
antibody. Such competing or cross-competing antibodies can be
identified based on their ability to compete/cross-compete with a
known antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention
in standard binding assays. For example, SPR e.g. by using a
Biacore.TM. system, ELISA assays or flow cytometry may be used to
demonstrate competition/cross-competition. Such
competition/cross-competition may suggest that the two antibodies
bind to identical, overlapping or similar epitopes.
[0652] An antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the
invention may therefore be identified by a method that comprises a
binding assay which assesses whether or not a test antibody is able
to compete/cross-compete with a reference antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention (e.g., 1D1, 1D1
variants, 7D4, 9B3, and 26B11, among others) for a binding site on
the target molecule. Methods for carrying out competitive binding
assays are disclosed herein and/or are well known in the art. For
example they may involve binding a reference antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention to a target
molecule using conditions under which the antibody can bind to the
target molecule. The antibody/target complex may then be exposed to
a test/second antibody and the extent to which the test antibody is
able to displace the reference antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof of the invention from antibody/target complexes may be
assessed. An alternative method may involve contacting a test
antibody with a target molecule under conditions that allow for
antibody binding, then adding a reference antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention that is capable
of binding that target molecule and assessing the extent to which
the reference antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the
invention is able to displace the test antibody from
antibody/target complexes or to simultaneously bind to the target
(i.e., non-competing antibody).
[0653] The ability of a test antibody to inhibit the binding of a
reference antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the
invention to the target demonstrates that the test antibody can
compete with a reference antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof of the invention for binding to the target and thus that
the test antibody binds to the same, or substantially the same,
epitope or region on the TL1A protein as the reference antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention. A test antibody
that is identified as competing with a reference antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention in such a method
is also an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the
present invention. The fact that the test antibody can bind TL1A in
the same region as a reference antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof of the invention and can compete with the reference
antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention
suggests that the test antibody may act as a ligand at the same
binding site as the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of
the invention and that the test antibody may therefore mimic the
action of the reference antibody and is, thus, an antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention. This can be
confirmed by comparing the activity of TL1A in the presence of the
test antibody with the activity of TL1A in the presence of the
reference antibody under otherwise identical conditions, using an
assay as more fully described elsewhere herein.
[0654] The reference antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof
of the invention may be an antibody as described herein, such as
1D1, 1D1 1.27, 1D1 1.28, 1D1 1.29, 1D1 1.30, 1D1 1.31, 1D1 1.32,
1D1 1.33, 1D1 1.34, 15A9, 15C11, 7D4, 22F9, 9B3, 2B11, or any
variant, or fragment thereof, as described herein that retains the
ability to bind to TL1A. An antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof of the invention may bind to the same epitope as the
reference antibodies described herein or any variant or fragment
thereof as described herein that retains the ability to bind to
TL1A.
[0655] As stated previously elsewhere herein, specific binding may
be assessed with reference to binding of the antibody to a molecule
that is not the target. This comparison may be made by comparing
the ability of an antibody to bind to the target and to another
molecule. This comparison may be made as described above in an
assessment of K.sub.D or K.sub.i. The other molecule used in such a
comparison may be any molecule that is not the target molecule.
Preferably, the other molecule is not identical to the target
molecule. Preferably the target molecule is not a fragment of the
target molecule.
[0656] The K.sub.D of an antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof of the current invention may be less than 50 nM, such as
less than 10 nM, such as less than 5 nM, such as less than 1 nM,
such as less than 750 pM, such as less than 500 pM, such as less
than 100 pM, such as less than 50 pM, such as less than 25 pM, such
as less than 20 pM, such as less than 10 pM, such as less than 9
pM, such as less than 9 pM, such as less than 7 pM, such as less
than 6 pM, such as less than 5 pM, such as less than 4 pM, such as
less than 3 pM, such as less than 2 pM, such as less than 1 pM,
such as between 20 pM and 1 pM.
[0657] In other embodiments, the binding affinity (K.sub.D) of TL1A
antibody to TL1A can be about 0.001 to about 250 nM. In some
embodiments, the binding affinity is any of about 200 nM, about 100
nM, about 50 nM, about 10 nM, about 1 nM, about 500 pM, about 100
pM, about 60 pM, about 50 pM, about 20 pM, about 15 pM, about 10
pM, about 5 pM, about 2 pM, or about 1 pM. In some embodiments, the
binding affinity is less than any of about 250 nM, about 200 nM,
about 100 nM, about 50 nM, about 10 nM, about 1 nM, about 500 pM,
about 100 pM, about 50 pM, about 20 pM, about 10 pM, about 5 pM,
about 2 pM, or about 1 pM. In some embodiments, the K.sub.D of a
TL1A antibody ranges from about 70 pM to about 1 pM. In some
embodiments, the K.sub.D of a TL1A antibody for human TL1A ranges
from about 30 pM to about 2 pM. In some embodiments, the binding
affinity of a TL1A antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of
the invention is about 69 pM, about 28 pM, about 25 pM, about 15
pM, about 13 pM, about 10 pM, about 4 pM, and about 2 pM.
[0658] The other molecule used to determine specific binding may be
unrelated in structure or function to the target. For example, the
other molecule may be an unrelated material or accompanying
material in the environment.
[0659] The other molecule used to determine specific binding may be
another molecule involved in the same in vivo pathway as the target
molecule, i.e., TL1A. By ensuring that the antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention has specificity
for TL1A over another such molecule, unwanted in vivo
cross-reactivity may be avoided.
[0660] The antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the
invention may retain the ability to bind to some molecules that are
related to the target molecule.
[0661] Alternatively, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof of the invention may have specificity for a particular
target molecule. For example, it may bind to one target molecule as
described herein, but may not bind, or may bind with significantly
reduced affinity to a different target molecule as described
herein. For example, a full length mature human TL1A may be used as
the target, but the antibody that binds to that target may be
unable to bind to or may bind with lesser affinity to, e.g. other
TL1A proteins from other species, such as other mammalian TL1A.
[0662] An antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the
invention may bind to TL1A and in doing so may inhibit an activity
of TL1A.
[0663] Polypeptide or antibody "fragments" or "portions" according
to the invention may be made by truncation, e.g. by removal of one
or more amino acids from the N and/or C-terminal ends of a
polypeptide. Up to 10, up to 20, up to 30, up to 40 or more amino
acids may be removed from the N and/or C terminal in this way.
Fragments may also be generated by one or more internal
deletions.
[0664] An antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the
invention may be, or may comprise, a fragment of, any one of
antibodies 1D1, 1D1 1.27, 1D1 1.28, 1D1 1.29, 1D1 1.30, 1D1 1.31,
1D1 1.32, 1D1 1.33, 1D1 1.34, 15A9, 15C11, 7D4, 22F9, 9B3, 2B11, or
a variant thereof. The antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof
of the invention may be or may comprise an antigen binding portion
of this antibody or a variant thereof. For example, the antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention may be a Fab
fragment of this antibody or a variant thereof or may be a single
chain antibody derived from this antibody or a variant thereof.
[0665] A variant antibody may comprise 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, up to 10, up
to 20, up to 30 or more amino acid substitutions and/or deletions
and/or insertions from the specific sequences and fragments
discussed above. "Deletion" variants may comprise the deletion of
individual amino acids, deletion of small groups of amino acids
such as 2, 3, 4 or 5 amino acids, or deletion of larger amino acid
regions, such as the deletion of specific amino acid domains or
other features. "Insertion" variants may comprise the insertion of
individual amino acids, insertion of small groups of amino acids
such as 2, 3, 4 or 5 amino acids, or insertion of larger amino acid
regions, such as the insertion of specific amino acid domains or
other features. "Substitution" variants preferably involve the
replacement of one or more amino acids with the same number of
amino acids and making conservative amino acid substitutions. For
example, an amino acid may be substituted with an alternative amino
acid having similar properties, for example, another basic amino
acid, another acidic amino acid, another neutral amino acid,
another charged amino acid, another hydrophilic amino acid, another
hydrophobic amino acid, another polar amino acid, another aromatic
amino acid or another aliphatic amino acid. Some properties of the
20 main amino acids which can be used to select suitable
substituents are as follows
[0666] Substitution variants have at least one amino acid residue
in the antibody molecule removed and a different residue inserted
in its place. The sites of greatest interest for substitutional
mutagenesis include the hypervariable regions, but framework
alterations are also contemplated. Conservative substitutions are
shown in Table 1 under the heading of "conservative substitutions."
If such substitutions result in a change in biological activity,
then more substantial changes, denominated "exemplary
substitutions" shown below, or as further described below in
reference to amino acid classes, may be introduced and the products
screened.

[0667] Substantial modifications in the biological properties of
the antibody are accomplished by selecting substitutions that
differ significantly in their effect on maintaining (a) the
structure of the polypeptide backbone in the area of the
substitution, for example, as a .beta.-sheet or helical
conformation, (b) the charge or hydrophobicity of the molecule at
the target site, or (c) the bulk of the side chain. Naturally
occurring residues are divided into groups based on common
side-chain properties: [0668] (1) Non-polar: Norleucine, Met, Ala,
Val, Leu, Ile; [0669] (2) Polar without charge: Cys, Ser, Thr, Asn,
Gln; [0670] (3) Acidic (negatively charged): Asp, Glu; [0671] (4)
Basic (positively charged): Lys, Arg; [0672] (5) Residues that
influence chain orientation: Gly, Pro; and [0673] (6) Aromatic:
Trp, Tyr, Phe, His.
[0674] Non-conservative substitutions are made by exchanging a
member of one of these classes for another class.
[0675] One type of substitution, for example, that may be made is
to change one or more cysteines in the antibody, which may be
chemically reactive, to another residue, such as, without
limitation, alanine or serine. For example, there can be a
substitution of a non-canonical cysteine. The substitution can be
made in a CDR or framework region of a variable domain or in the
constant region of an antibody. In some embodiments, the cysteine
is canonical. Any cysteine residue not involved in maintaining the
proper conformation of the antibody also may be substituted,
generally with serine, to improve the oxidative stability of the
molecule and prevent aberrant cross-linking. Conversely, cysteine
bond(s) may be added to the antibody to improve its stability,
particularly where the antibody is an antibody fragment such as an
Fv fragment.
[0676] The invention also provides methods of generating,
selecting, and making TL1A antibodies. The antibodies of this
invention can be made by procedures known in the art. In some
embodiments, antibodies may be made recombinantly and expressed
using any method known in the art.
[0677] In some embodiments, antibodies may be prepared and selected
by phage display technology. See, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos.
5,565,332; 5,580,717; 5,733,743; and 6,265,150; and Winter et al.,
Annu. Rev. Immunol. 12:433-455, 1994. Alternatively, the phage
display technology (McCafferty et al., Nature 348:552-553, 1990)
can be used to produce human antibodies and antibody fragments in
vitro, from immunoglobulin variable (V) domain gene repertoires
from unimmunized donors. According to this technique, antibody V
domain genes are cloned in-frame into either a major or minor coat
protein gene of a filamentous bacteriophage, such as M13 or fd, and
displayed as functional antibody fragments on the surface of the
phage particle. Because the filamentous particle contains a
single-stranded DNA copy of the phage genome, selections based on
the functional properties of the antibody also result in selection
of the gene encoding the antibody exhibiting those properties.
Thus, the phage mimics some of the properties of the B cell. Phage
display can be performed in a variety of formats; for review see,
e.g., Johnson, Kevin S. and Chiswell, David J., Current Opinion in
Structural Biology 3:564-571, 1993. Several sources of V-gene
segments can be used for phage display. Clackson et al., Nature
352:624-628, 1991, isolated a diverse array of anti-oxazolone
antibodies from a small random combinatorial library of V genes
derived from the spleens of immunized mice. A repertoire of V genes
from human donors can be constructed and antibodies to a diverse
array of antigens (including self-antigens) can be isolated
essentially following the techniques described by Mark et al.,
1991, J. Mol. Biol. 222:581-597, or Griffith et al., 1993, EMBO J.
12:725-734. In a natural immune response, antibody genes accumulate
mutations at a high rate (somatic hypermutation). Some of the
changes introduced will confer higher affinity, and B cells
displaying high-affinity surface immunoglobulin are preferentially
replicated and differentiated during subsequent antigen challenge.
This natural process can be mimicked by employing the technique
known as "chain shuffling." (Marks et al., 1992, Bio/Technol.
10:779-783). In this method, the affinity of "primary" human
antibodies obtained by phage display can be improved by
sequentially replacing the heavy and light chain V region genes
with repertoires of naturally occurring variants (repertoires) of V
domain genes obtained from unimmunized donors. This technique
allows the production of antibodies and antibody fragments with
affinities in the pM-nM range. A strategy for making very large
phage antibody repertoires (also known as "the mother-of-all
libraries") has been described by Waterhouse et al., Nucl. Acids
Res. 21:2265-2266, 1993. Gene shuffling can also be used to derive
human antibodies from rodent antibodies, where the human antibody
has similar affinities and specificities to the starting rodent
antibody. According to this method, which is also referred to as
"epitope imprinting", the heavy or light chain V domain gene of
rodent antibodies obtained by phage display technique is replaced
with a repertoire of human V domain genes, creating rodent-human
chimeras. Selection on antigen results in isolation of human
variable regions capable of restoring a functional antigen-binding
site, i.e., the epitope governs (imprints) the choice of partner.
When the process is repeated in order to replace the remaining
rodent V domain, a human antibody is obtained (see PCT Publication
No. WO 93/06213). Unlike traditional humanization of rodent
antibodies by CDR grafting, this technique provides completely
human antibodies, which have no framework or CDR residues of rodent
origin.
[0678] In some embodiments, antibodies may be made using hybridoma
technology. It is contemplated that any mammalian subject including
humans or antibody producing cells therefrom can be manipulated to
serve as the basis for production of mammalian, including human,
hybridoma cell lines. The route and schedule of immunization of the
host animal are generally in keeping with established and
conventional techniques for antibody stimulation and production, as
further described herein. Typically, the host animal is inoculated
intraperitoneally, intramuscularly, orally, subcutaneously,
intraplantar, and/or intradermally with an amount of immunogen,
including as described herein.
[0679] Hybridomas can be prepared from the lymphocytes and
immortalized myeloma cells using the general somatic cell
hybridization technique of Kohler, B. and Milstein, C., 1975,
Nature 256:495-497 or as modified by Buck, D. W., et al., In Vitro,
18:377-381, 1982. Available myeloma lines, including but not
limited to X63-Ag8.653 and those from the Salk Institute, Cell
Distribution Center, San Diego, Calif., USA, may be used in the
hybridization. Generally, the technique involves fusing myeloma
cells and lymphoid cells using a fusogen such as polyethylene
glycol, or by electrical means well known to those skilled in the
art. After the fusion, the cells are separated from the fusion
medium and grown in a selective growth medium, such as
hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine (HAT) medium, to eliminate
unhybridized parent cells. Any of the media described herein,
supplemented with or without serum, can be used for culturing
hybridomas that secrete monoclonal antibodies. As another
alternative to the cell fusion technique, EBV immortalized B cells
may be used to produce the TL1A monoclonal antibodies of the
subject invention. The hybridomas or other immortalized B-cells are
expanded and subcloned, if desired, and supernatants are assayed
for anti-immunogen activity by conventional immunoassay procedures
(e.g., radioimmunoassay, enzyme immunoassay, or fluorescence
immunoassay).
[0680] Hybridomas that may be used as source of antibodies
encompass all derivatives, progeny cells of the parent hybridomas
that produce monoclonal antibodies specific for TL1A, or a portion
thereof.
[0681] Hybridomas that produce such antibodies may be grown in
vitro or in vivo using known procedures. The monoclonal antibodies
may be isolated from the culture media or body fluids, by
conventional immunoglobulin purification procedures such as
ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel electrophoresis, dialysis,
chromatography, and ultrafiltration, if desired. Undesired
activity, if present, can be removed, for example, by running the
preparation over adsorbents made of the immunogen attached to a
solid phase and eluting or releasing the desired antibodies off the
immunogen. Immunization of a host animal with a TL1A polypeptide,
or a fragment containing the target amino acid sequence conjugated
to a protein that is immunogenic in the species to be immunized,
e.g., keyhole limpet hemocyanin, serum albumin, bovine
thyroglobulin, or soybean trypsin inhibitor using a bifunctional or
derivatizing agent, for example, maleimidobenzoyl sulfosuccinimide
ester (conjugation through cysteine residues), N-hydroxysuccinimide
(through lysine residues), glutaraldehyde, succinic anhydride,
SOCl.sub.2, or R.sup.1N.dbd.C.dbd.NR, where R and R.sup.1 are
different alkyl groups, can yield a population of antibodies (e.g.,
monoclonal antibodies).
[0682] If desired, the TL1A antibody (monoclonal or polyclonal) of
interest may be sequenced and the polynucleotide sequence may then
be cloned into a vector for expression or propagation. The sequence
encoding the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of
interest may be maintained in vector in a host cell and the host
cell can then be expanded and frozen for future use. Production of
recombinant monoclonal antibodies in cell culture can be carried
out through cloning of antibody genes from B cells by means known
in the art. See, e.g. Tiller et al., 2008, J. Immunol. Methods 329,
112; U.S. Pat. No. 7,314,622.
[0683] In some embodiments, the polynucleotide sequence may be used
for genetic manipulation to humanize the antibody or to improve the
affinity, or other characteristics of the antibody. Antibodies may
also be customized for use, for example, in dogs, cats, primate,
equines and bovines.
[0684] In some embodiments, fully human antibodies may be obtained
by using commercially available mice that have been engineered to
express specific human immunoglobulin proteins. Transgenic animals
that are designed to produce a more desirable (e.g., fully human
antibodies) or more robust immune response may also be used for
generation of humanized or human antibodies. Examples of such
technology are Xenomouse.TM. from Abgenix, Inc. (Fremont, Calif.)
and HuMAb-Mouse.RTM. and TC Mouse.TM. from Medarex, Inc.
(Princeton, N.J.).
[0685] Antibodies may be made recombinantly by first isolating the
antibodies and antibody producing cells from host animals,
obtaining the gene sequence, and using the gene sequence to express
the antibody recombinantly in host cells (e.g., CHO cells). Another
method which may be employed is to express the antibody sequence in
plants (e.g., tobacco) or transgenic milk. Methods for expressing
antibodies recombinantly in plants or milk have been disclosed.
See, for example, Peeters, et al. Vaccine 19:2756, 2001; Lonberg,
N. and D. Huszar Int. Rev. Immunol 13:65, 1995; and Pollock, et
al., J Immunol Methods 231:147, 1999. Methods for making
derivatives of antibodies, e.g., domain, single chain, etc. are
known in the art.
[0686] Immunoassays and flow cytometry sorting techniques such as
fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) can also be employed to
isolate antibodies that are specific for TL1A.
[0687] DNA encoding the monoclonal antibodies is readily isolated
and sequenced using conventional procedures (e.g., by using
oligonucleotide probes that are capable of binding specifically to
genes encoding the heavy and light chains of the monoclonal
antibodies).
[0688] The hybridoma cells serve as a preferred source of such DNA.
Once isolated, the DNA may be placed into expression vectors (such
as expression vectors disclosed in PCT Publication No. WO
87/04462), which are then transfected into host cells such as E.
coli cells, simian COS cells, Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, or
myeloma cells that do not otherwise produce immunoglobulin protein,
to obtain the synthesis of monoclonal antibodies in the recombinant
host cells. See, e.g., PCT Publication No. WO 87/04462. The DNA
also may be modified, for example, by substituting the coding
sequence for human heavy and light chain constant domains in place
of the homologous murine sequences, Morrison et al., Proc. Nat.
Acad. Sci. 81:6851, 1984, or by covalently joining to the
immunoglobulin coding sequence all or part of the coding sequence
for a non-immunoglobulin polypeptide. In that manner, chimeric or
hybrid antibodies are prepared that have the binding specificity of
a TL1A antibody herein.
[0689] Antibody fragments can be produced by proteolytic or other
degradation of the antibodies, by recombinant methods (i.e., single
or fusion polypeptides) as described above or by chemical
synthesis. Polypeptides of the antibodies, especially shorter
polypeptides up to about 50 amino acids, are conveniently made by
chemical synthesis. Methods of chemical synthesis are known in the
art and are commercially available. For example, an antibody could
be produced by an automated polypeptide synthesizer employing the
solid phase method. See also, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,807,715; 4,816,567;
and 6,331,415.
[0690] In some embodiments, a polynucleotide comprises a sequence
encoding the heavy chain and/or the light chain variable regions of
TL1A antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the present
disclosure. The sequence encoding the antibody or antigen-binding
fragment thereof of interest may be maintained in a vector in a
host cell and the host cell can then be expanded and frozen for
future use. Vectors (including expression vectors) and host cells
are further described herein.
[0691] The invention includes affinity matured embodiments. For
example, affinity matured antibodies can be produced by procedures
known in the art (Marks et al., 1992, Bio/Technology, 10:779-783;
Barbas et al., 1994, Proc Nat. Acad. Sci, USA 91:3809-3813; Schier
et al., 1995, Gene, 169:147-155; Yelton et al., 1995, J. Immunol.,
155:1994-2004; Jackson et al., 1995, J. Immunol., 154(7):3310-9;
Hawkins et al., 1992, J. Mol. Biol., 226:889-896; and PCT
Publication No. WO2004/058184).
[0692] The following methods may be used for adjusting the affinity
of an antibody and for characterizing a CDR. One way of
characterizing a CDR of an antibody and/or altering (such as
improving) the binding affinity of a polypeptide, such as an
antibody, termed "library scanning mutagenesis". Generally, library
scanning mutagenesis works as follows. One or more amino acid
positions in the CDR are replaced with two or more (such as 3, 4,
5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, or 20) amino
acids using art recognized methods. This generates small libraries
of clones (in some embodiments, one for every amino acid position
that is analyzed), each with a complexity of two or more members
(if two or more amino acids are substituted at every position).
Generally, the library also includes a clone comprising the native
(unsubstituted) amino acid. A small number of clones, e.g., about
20-80 clones (depending on the complexity of the library), from
each library are screened for binding affinity to the target
polypeptide (or other binding target), and candidates with
increased, the same, decreased, or no binding are identified.
Methods for determining binding affinity are well-known in the art.
Binding affinity may be determined using, for example, Biacore.TM.
surface plasmon resonance analysis, which detects differences in
binding affinity of about 2-fold or greater, Kinexa.RTM. Biosensor,
scintillation proximity assays, ELISA, ORIGEN.RTM. immunoassay,
fluorescence quenching, fluorescence transfer, and/or yeast
display. Binding affinity may also be screened using a suitable
bioassay. Biacore.TM. is particularly useful when the starting
antibody already binds with a relatively high affinity, for example
a K.sub.D of about 10 nM or lower.
[0693] In some embodiments, every amino acid position in a CDR is
replaced (in some embodiments, one at a time) with all 20 natural
amino acids using art recognized mutagenesis methods (some of which
are described herein). This generates small libraries of clones (in
some embodiments, one for every amino acid position that is
analyzed), each with a complexity of 20 members (if all 20 amino
acids are substituted at every position).
[0694] In some embodiments, the library to be screened comprises
substitutions in two or more positions, which may be in the same
CDR or in two or more CDRs. Thus, the library may comprise
substitutions in two or more positions in one CDR. The library may
comprise substitution in two or more positions in two or more CDRs.
The library may comprise substitution in 3, 4, 5, or more
positions, said positions found in two, three, four, five or six
CDRs. The substitution may be prepared using low redundancy codons.
See, e.g., Table 2 of Balint et al., 1993, Gene 137(1):109-18.
[0695] The CDR may be heavy chain variable region (VH) CDR3 and/or
light chain variable region (VL) CDR3. The CDR may be one or more
of VH CDR1, VH CDR2, VH CDR3, VL CDR1, VL CDR2, and/or VL CDR3. The
CDR may be a Kabat CDR, a Chothia CDR, an extended CDR, an AbM CDR,
a contact CDR, or a conformational CDR.
[0696] Candidates with improved binding may be sequenced, thereby
identifying a CDR substitution mutant which results in improved
affinity (also termed an "improved" substitution). Candidates that
bind may also be sequenced, thereby identifying a CDR substitution
which retains binding.
[0697] Multiple rounds of screening may be conducted. For example,
candidates (each comprising an amino acid substitution at one or
more position of one or more CDR) with improved binding are also
useful for the design of a second library containing at least the
original and substituted amino acid at each improved CDR position
(i.e., amino acid position in the CDR at which a substitution
mutant showed improved binding). Preparation, and screening or
selection of this library is discussed further below.
[0698] Library scanning mutagenesis also provides a means for
characterizing a CDR, in so far as the frequency of clones with
improved binding, the same binding, decreased binding or no binding
also provide information relating to the importance of each amino
acid position for the stability of the antibody-antigen complex.
For example, if a position of the CDR retains binding when changed
to all 20 amino acids, that position is identified as a position
that is unlikely to be required for antigen binding. Conversely, if
a position of CDR retains binding in only a small percentage of
substitutions, that position is identified as a position that is
important to CDR function. Thus, the library scanning mutagenesis
methods generate information regarding positions in the CDRs that
can be changed to many different amino acids (including all 20
amino acids), and positions in the CDRs which cannot be changed or
which can only be changed to a few amino acids.
[0699] Candidates with improved affinity may be combined in a
second library, which includes the improved amino acid, the
original amino acid at that position, and may further include
additional substitutions at that position, depending on the
complexity of the library that is desired, or permitted using the
desired screening or selection method. In addition, if desired,
adjacent amino acid position can be randomized to at least two or
more amino acids. Randomization of adjacent amino acids may permit
additional conformational flexibility in the mutant CDR, which may
in turn, permit or facilitate the introduction of a larger number
of improving mutations. The library may also comprise substitution
at positions that did not show improved affinity in the first round
of screening.
[0700] The second library is screened or selected for library
members with improved and/or altered binding affinity using any
method known in the art, including screening using Biacore,
Kinexa.TM. biosensor analysis, and selection using any method known
in the art for selection, including phage display, yeast display,
and ribosome display.
[0701] To express the TL1A antibodies of the present invention, DNA
fragments encoding VH and VL regions can first be obtained using
any of the methods described above. Various modifications, e.g.
mutations, deletions, and/or additions can also be introduced into
the DNA sequences using standard methods known to those of skill in
the art. For example, mutagenesis can be carried out using standard
methods, such as PCR-mediated mutagenesis, in which the mutated
nucleotides are incorporated into the PCR primers such that the PCR
product contains the desired mutations or site-directed
mutagenesis.
[0702] The invention encompasses modifications to the variable
regions shown in FIG. 1 and the CDRs indicated in FIG. 1. For
example, the invention includes antibodies comprising functionally
equivalent variable regions and CDRs which do not significantly
affect their properties as well as variants which have enhanced or
decreased activity and/or affinity. For example, the amino acid
sequence may be mutated to obtain an antibody with the desired
binding affinity to TL1A. Examples of modified polypeptides include
polypeptides with conservative substitutions of amino acid
residues, one or more deletions or additions of amino acids which
do not significantly deleteriously change the functional activity,
or which mature (enhance) the affinity of the polypeptide for its
ligand, or use of chemical analogs.
[0703] Amino acid sequence insertions include amino- and/or
carboxyl-terminal fusions ranging in length from one residue to
polypeptides containing a hundred or more residues, as well as
intrasequence insertions of single or multiple amino acid residues.
Examples of terminal insertions include an antibody with an
N-terminal methionyl residue or the antibody fused to an epitope
tag. Other insertional variants of the antibody molecule include
the fusion to the N- or C-terminus of the antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof of an enzyme or a polypeptide
which increases the half-life of the antibody in the blood
circulation.
[0704] The antibodies may also be modified, e.g., in the variable
domains of the heavy and/or light chains, e.g., to alter a binding
property of the antibody. Changes in the variable region can alter
binding affinity and/or specificity. In some embodiments, no more
than one to five conservative amino acid substitutions are made
within a CDR domain. In other embodiments, no more than one to
three conservative amino acid substitutions are made within a CDR
domain. For example, a mutation may be made in one or more of the
CDR regions to increase or decrease the K.sub.D of the antibody for
TL1A, to increase or decrease k.sub.off, or to alter the binding
specificity of the antibody. Techniques in site-directed
mutagenesis are well-known in the art. See, e.g., Sambrook et al.
and Ausubel et al., supra.
[0705] A modification or mutation may also be made in a framework
region or constant region to increase the half-life of a TL1A
antibody. See, e.g., PCT Publication No. WO 00/09560. A mutation in
a framework region or constant region can also be made to alter the
immunogenicity of the antibody, to provide a site for covalent or
non-covalent binding to another molecule, or to alter such
properties as complement fixation, FcR binding and
antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity. According to the
invention, a single antibody may have mutations in any one or more
of the CDRs or framework regions of the variable domain or in the
constant region.
[0706] Modifications also include glycosylated and nonglycosylated
polypeptides, as well as polypeptides with other post-translational
modifications, such as, for example, glycosylation with different
sugars, acetylation, and phosphorylation. Antibodies are
glycosylated at conserved positions in their constant regions
(Jefferis and Lund, 1997, Chem. Immunol. 65:111-128; Wright and
Morrison, 1997, TibTECH 15:26-32). The oligosaccharide side chains
of the immunoglobulins affect the protein's function (Boyd et al.,
1996, Mol. Immunol. 32:1311-1318; Wittwe and Howard, 1990, Biochem.
29:4175-4180) and the intramolecular interaction between portions
of the glycoprotein, which can affect the conformation and
presented three-dimensional surface of the glycoprotein (Jefferis
and Lund, supra; Wyss and Wagner, 1996, Current Opin. Biotech.
7:409-416). Oligosaccharides may also serve to target a given
glycoprotein to certain molecules based upon specific recognition
structures. Glycosylation of antibodies has also been reported to
affect antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). In
particular, antibodies produced by CHO cells with
tetracycline-regulated expression of
.beta.(1,4)-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase III (GnTIII), a
glycosyltransferase catalyzing formation of bisecting GlcNAc, was
reported to have improved ADCC activity (Umana et al., 1999, Nature
Biotech. 17:176-180).
[0707] Glycosylation of antibodies is typically either N-linked or
O-linked. N-linked refers to the attachment of the carbohydrate
moiety to the side chain of an asparagine residue. The tripeptide
sequences asparagine-X-serine, asparagine-X-threonine, and
asparagine-X-cysteine, where X is any amino acid except proline,
are the recognition sequences for enzymatic attachment of the
carbohydrate moiety to the asparagine side chain. Thus, the
presence of either of these tripeptide sequences in a polypeptide
creates a potential glycosylation site. O-linked glycosylation
refers to the attachment of one of the sugars
N-acetylgalactosamine, galactose, or xylose to a hydroxyamino acid,
most commonly serine or threonine, although 5-hydroxyproline or
5-hydroxylysine may also be used.
[0708] Addition of glycosylation sites to the antibody is
conveniently accomplished by altering the amino acid sequence such
that it contains one or more of the above-described tripeptide
sequences (for N-linked glycosylation sites). The alteration may
also be made by the addition of, or substitution by, one or more
serine or threonine residues to the sequence of the original
antibody (for O-linked glycosylation sites).
[0709] The glycosylation pattern of antibodies may also be altered
without altering the underlying nucleotide sequence. Glycosylation
largely depends on the host cell used to express the antibody.
Since the cell type used for expression of recombinant
glycoproteins, e.g. antibodies, as potential therapeutics is rarely
the native cell, variations in the glycosylation pattern of the
antibodies can be expected (see, e.g. Hse et al., 1997, J. Biol.
Chem. 272:9062-9070).
[0710] In addition to the choice of host cells, factors that affect
glycosylation during recombinant production of antibodies include
growth mode, media formulation, culture density, oxygenation, pH,
purification schemes and the like. Various methods have been
proposed to alter the glycosylation pattern achieved in a
particular host organism including introducing or overexpressing
certain enzymes involved in oligosaccharide production (U.S. Pat.
Nos. 5,047,335; 5,510,261 and 5,278,299). Glycosylation, or certain
types of glycosylation, can be enzymatically removed from the
glycoprotein, for example, using endoglycosidase H (Endo H),
N-glycosidase F, endoglycosidase F1, endoglycosidase F2,
endoglycosidase F3. In addition, the recombinant host cell can be
genetically engineered to be defective in processing certain types
of polysaccharides. These and similar techniques are well known in
the art.
[0711] Other methods of modification include using coupling
techniques known in the art, including, but not limited to,
enzymatic means, oxidative substitution and chelation.
Modifications can be used, for example, for attachment of labels
for immunoassay. Modified polypeptides are made using established
procedures in the art and can be screened using standard assays
known in the art, some of which are described below and in the
Examples.
[0712] In some embodiments, the antibody comprises a modified
constant region that has increased or decreased binding affinity to
a human Fc gamma receptor, is immunologically inert or partially
inert, e.g., does not trigger complement mediated lysis, does not
stimulate antibody-dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), or
does not activate microglia; or has reduced activities (compared to
the unmodified antibody) in any one or more of the following:
triggering complement mediated lysis, stimulating ADCC, or
activating microglia. Different modifications of the constant
region may be used to achieve optimal level and/or combination of
effector functions. See, for example, Morgan et al., Immunology
86:319-324, 1995; Lund et al., J. Immunology 157:4963-9
157:4963-4969, 1996; Idusogie et al., J. Immunology 164:4178-4184,
2000; Tao et al., J. Immunology 143: 2595-2601, 1989; and Jefferis
et al., Immunological Reviews 163:59-76, 1998. In some embodiments,
the constant region is modified as described in Eur. J. Immunol.,
1999, 29:2613-2624; PCT Application No. PCT/GB99/01441; and/or UK
Patent Application No. 9809951.8.
[0713] In some embodiments, an antibody constant region can be
modified to avoid interaction with Fc gamma receptor and the
complement and immune systems. The techniques for preparation of
such antibodies are described in WO 99/58572. For example, the
constant region may be engineered to more resemble human constant
regions to avoid immune response if the antibody is used in
clinical trials and treatments in humans. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos.
5,997,867 and 5,866,692.
[0714] In some embodiments, the constant region is modified as
described in Eur. J. Immunol., 1999, 29:2613-2624; PCT Application
No. PCT/GB99/01441; and/or UK Patent Application No. 9809951.8. In
such embodiments, the Fc can be human IgG.sub.2 or human IgG.sub.4.
The Fc can be human IgG.sub.2 containing the mutation A330P331 to
S330S331 (IgG.sub.2.DELTA.a), in which the amino acid residues are
numbered with reference to the wild type IgG.sub.2 sequence. Eur.
J. Immunol., 1999, 29:2613-2624. In some embodiments, the antibody
comprises a constant region of IgG.sub.4 comprising the following
mutations (Armour et al., 2003, Molecular Immunology 40 585-593):
E233F234L235 to P233V234A235 (IgG.sub.4.DELTA.c), in which the
numbering is with reference to wild type IgG.sub.4. In yet another
embodiment, the Fc is human IgG.sub.4 E233F234L235 to P233V234A235
with deletion G236 (IgG.sub.4.DELTA.b). In another embodiment, the
Fc is any human IgG.sub.4 Fc (IgG.sub.4, IgG.sub.4.DELTA.b or
IgG.sub.4.DELTA.c) containing hinge stabilizing mutation S228 to
P228 (Aalberse et al., 2002, Immunology 105, 9-19).
[0715] In some embodiments, the antibody comprises a human heavy
chain IgG.sub.2 constant region comprising the following mutations:
A330P331 to S330S331 (amino acid numbering with reference to the
wild type IgG.sub.2 sequence). Eur. J. Immunol., 1999,
29:2613-2624. In still other embodiments, the constant region is
aglycosylated for N-linked glycosylation. In some embodiments, the
constant region is aglycosylated for N-linked glycosylation by
mutating the oligosaccharide attachment residue and/or flanking
residues that are part of the N-glycosylation recognition sequence
in the constant region. For example, N-glycosylation site N297 may
be mutated to, e.g., A, Q, K, or H. See, Tao et al., J. Immunology
143: 2595-2601, 1989; and Jefferis et al., Immunological Reviews
163:59-76, 1998. In some embodiments, the constant region is
aglycosylated for N-linked glycosylation. The constant region may
be aglycosylated for N-linked glycosylation enzymatically (such as
removing carbohydrate by enzyme PNGase), or by expression in a
glycosylation deficient host cell.
[0716] Other antibody modifications include antibodies that have
been modified as described in PCT Publication No. WO 99/58572.
These antibodies comprise, in addition to a binding domain directed
at the target molecule, an effector domain having an amino acid
sequence substantially homologous to all or part of a constant
region of a human immunoglobulin heavy chain. These antibodies are
capable of binding the target molecule without triggering
significant complement dependent lysis, or cell-mediated
destruction of the target. In some embodiments, the effector domain
is capable of specifically binding FcRn and/or Fc.gamma.RIIb. These
are typically based on chimeric domains derived from two or more
human immunoglobulin heavy chain CH2 domains. Antibodies modified
in this manner are particularly suitable for use in chronic
antibody therapy, to avoid inflammatory and other adverse reactions
to conventional antibody therapy.
[0717] The disclosure also provides an antibody constant domain
that may be further modified. It is known that variants of the Fc
region, e.g., amino acid substitutions, insertions, and/or
additions and/or deletions, enhance or diminish effector function.

[0718] In some embodiments, the antibody comprises a modified
constant region that has increased binding affinity for FcRn and/or
an increased serum half-life as compared with the unmodified
antibody.
[0719] In a process known as "germlining", certain amino acids in
the VH and VL sequences can be mutated to match those found
naturally in germline VH and VL sequences. In particular, the amino
acid sequences of the framework regions in the VH and VL sequences
can be mutated to match the germline sequences to reduce the risk
of immunogenicity when the antibody is administered. Germline DNA
sequences for human VH and VL genes are known in the art (see e.g.,
the "Vbase" human germline sequence database; see also Kabat, E.
A., et al., 1991, Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,
Fifth Edition, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, NIH
Publication No. 91-3242; Tomlinson et al., 1992, J. Mol. Biol.
227:776-798; and Cox et al., 1994, Eur. J. Immunol.
24:827-836).
[0720] Another type of amino acid substitution that may be made is
to remove potential proteolytic sites in the antibody. Such sites
may occur in a CDR or framework region of a variable domain or in
the constant region of an antibody. Substitution of cysteine
residues and removal of proteolytic sites may decrease the risk of
heterogeneity in the antibody product and thus increase its
homogeneity. Another type of amino acid substitution is to
eliminate asparagine-glycine pairs, which form potential
deamidation sites, by altering one or both of the residues. In
another example, the C-terminal lysine of the heavy chain of a TL1A
antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of the invention can
be cleaved or otherwise removed. In various embodiments of the
invention, the heavy and light chains of the antibodies may
optionally include a signal sequence.
[0721] Once DNA fragments encoding the VH and VL segments of the
present invention are obtained, these DNA fragments can be further
manipulated by standard recombinant DNA techniques, for example to
convert the variable region genes to full-length antibody chain
genes, to Fab fragment genes, or to a scFv gene. In these
manipulations, a VL- or VH-encoding DNA fragment is operatively
linked to another DNA fragment encoding another protein, such as an
antibody constant region or a flexible linker. The term
"operatively linked", as used in this context, is intended to mean
that the two DNA fragments are joined such that the amino acid
sequences encoded by the two DNA fragments remain in-frame.
[0722] The isolated DNA encoding the VH region can be converted to
a full-length heavy chain gene by operatively linking the
VH-encoding DNA to another DNA molecule encoding heavy chain
constant regions (CH1, CH2 and CH3). The sequences of human heavy
chain constant region genes are known in the art (see e.g., Kabat,
E. A., et al., 1991, Sequences of Proteins of Immunological
Interest, Fifth Edition, U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services, NIH Publication No. 91-3242) and DNA fragments
encompassing these regions can be obtained by standard PCR
amplification. The heavy chain constant region can be an IgG.sub.1,
IgG.sub.2, IgG.sub.3, IgG.sub.4, IgA, IgE, IgM or IgD constant
region, but most preferably is an IgG.sub.1 or IgG.sub.2 constant
region. The IgG constant region sequence can be any of the various
alleles or allotypes known to occur among different individuals,
such as Gm(1), Gm(2), Gm(3), and Gm(17). These allotypes represent
naturally occurring amino acid substitution in the IgG1 constant
regions. For a Fab fragment heavy chain gene, the VH-encoding DNA
can be operatively linked to another DNA molecule encoding only the
heavy chain CH1 constant region. The CH1 heavy chain constant
region may be derived from any of the heavy chain genes.
[0723] The isolated DNA encoding the VL region can be converted to
a full-length light chain gene (as well as a Fab light chain gene)
by operatively linking the VL-encoding DNA to another DNA molecule
encoding the light chain constant region, CL. The sequences of
human light chain constant region genes are known in the art (see
e.g., Kabat, E. A., et al., 1991, Sequences of Proteins of
Immunological Interest, Fifth Edition, U.S. Department of Health
and Human Services, NIH Publication No. 91-3242) and DNA fragments
encompassing these regions can be obtained by standard PCR
amplification. The light chain constant region can be a kappa or
lambda constant region. The kappa constant region may be any of the
various alleles known to occur among different individuals, such as
Inv(1), Inv(2), and Inv(3). The lambda constant region may be
derived from any of the three lambda genes.
[0724] To create a scFv gene, the VH- and VL-encoding DNA fragments
are operatively linked to another fragment encoding a flexible
linker such that the VH and VL sequences can be expressed as a
contiguous single-chain protein, with the VL and VH regions joined
by the flexible linker (See e.g., Bird et al., 1988, Science
242:423-426; Huston et al., 1988, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA
85:5879-5883; McCafferty et al., 1990, Nature 348:552-554. An
example of a linking peptide is (GGGGS).sub.3 (SEQ ID NO: 383),
which bridges approximately 3.5 nm between the carboxy terminus of
one variable region and the amino terminus of the other variable
region. Linkers of other sequences have been designed and used
(Bird et al., 1988, supra). Linkers can in turn be modified for
additional functions, such as attachment of drugs or attachment to
solid supports. The single chain antibody may be monovalent, if
only a single VH and VL are used, bivalent, if two VH and VL are
used, or polyvalent, if more than two VH and VL are used.
Bispecific or polyvalent antibodies may be generated that bind
specifically to TL1A and to another molecule. The single chain
variants can be produced either recombinantly or synthetically. For
synthetic production of scFv, an automated synthesizer can be used.
For recombinant production of scFv, a suitable plasmid containing
polynucleotide that encodes the scFv can be introduced into a
suitable host cell, either eukaryotic, such as yeast, plant, insect
or mammalian cells, or prokaryotic, such as E. coli.
Polynucleotides encoding the scFv of interest can be made by
routine manipulations such as ligation of polynucleotides. The
resultant scFv can be isolated using standard protein purification
techniques known in the art.
[0725] Other forms of single chain antibodies, such as diabodies,
are also encompassed. Diabodies are bivalent, bispecific antibodies
in which VH and VL are expressed on a single polypeptide chain, but
using a linker that is too short to allow for pairing between the
two domains on the same chain, thereby forcing the domains to pair
with complementary domains of another chain and creating two
antigen binding sites (see e.g., Holliger, P., et al., 1993, Proc.
Natl. Acad Sci. USA 90:6444-6448; Poljak, R. J., et al., 1994,
Structure 2:1121-1123).
[0726] Heteroconjugate antibodies, comprising two covalently joined
antibodies, are also within the scope of the invention. Such
antibodies have been used to target immune system cells to unwanted
cells (U.S. Pat. No. 4,676,980), and for treatment of HIV infection
(PCT Publication Nos. WO 91/00360 and WO 92/200373; EP 03089).
Heteroconjugate antibodies may be made using any convenient
cross-linking methods. Suitable cross-linking agents and techniques
are well known in the art, and are described in U.S. Pat. No.
4,676,980.
[0727] Chimeric or hybrid antibodies also may be prepared in vitro
using known methods of synthetic protein chemistry, including those
involving cross-linking agents. For example, immunotoxins may be
constructed using a disulfide exchange reaction or by forming a
thioether bond. Examples of suitable reagents for this purpose
include iminothiolate and methyl-4-mercaptobutyrimidate.
[0728] The invention also encompasses fusion proteins comprising
one or more fragments or regions from the antibodies disclosed
herein. In some embodiments, a fusion antibody may be made that
comprises all or a portion of a TL1A antibody or antigen-binding
fragment thereof of the invention linked to another polypeptide. In
another embodiment, only the variable domains of the TL1A antibody
are linked to the polypeptide. In another embodiment, the VH domain
of a TL1A antibody is linked to a first polypeptide, while the VL
domain of a TL1A antibody is linked to a second polypeptide that
associates with the first polypeptide in a manner such that the VH
and VL domains can interact with one another to form an antigen
binding site. In another preferred embodiment, the VH domain is
separated from the VL domain by a linker such that the VH and VL
domains can interact with one another. The VH-linker-VL antibody is
then linked to the polypeptide of interest. In addition, fusion
antibodies can be created in which two (or more) single-chain
antibodies are linked to one another. This is useful if one wants
to create a divalent or polyvalent antibody on a single polypeptide
chain, or if one wants to create a bispecific antibody.
[0729] In some embodiments, a fusion polypeptide is provided that
comprises at least 10 contiguous amino acids of the variable light
chain region shown in SEQ ID NOs: 1, 22, 36, 50, 64, 88, or 102
and/or at least 10 amino acids of the variable heavy chain region
shown in SEQ ID NOs:3, 5, 24, 38, 52, 66, 68, 67, 198, 205, 212,
219, 226, 233, 240, or 247. In other embodiments, a fusion
polypeptide is provided that comprises at least about 10, at least
about 15, at least about 20, at least about 25, or at least about
30 contiguous amino acids of the variable light chain region and/or
at least about 10, at least about 15, at least about 20, at least
about 25, or at least about 30 contiguous amino acids of the
variable heavy chain region. In another embodiment, the fusion
polypeptide comprises one or more CDR(s). In still other
embodiments, the fusion polypeptide comprises VH CDR3 and/or VL
CDR3. For purposes of this invention, a fusion protein contains one
or more antibodies and another amino acid sequence to which it is
not attached in the native molecule, for example, a heterologous
sequence or a homologous sequence from another region. Exemplary
heterologous sequences include, but are not limited to a "tag" such
as a FLAG tag or a 6His tag (SEQ ID NO: 392). Tags are well known
in the art.
[0730] A fusion polypeptide can be created by methods known in the
art, for example, synthetically or recombinantly. Typically, the
fusion proteins of this invention are made by preparing an
expressing a polynucleotide encoding them using recombinant methods
described herein, although they may also be prepared by other means
known in the art, including, for example, chemical synthesis.
[0731] In other embodiments, other modified antibodies may be
prepared using nucleic acid molecules encoding a TL1A antibody. For
instance, "Kappa bodies" (Ill et al., 1997, Protein Eng.
10:949-57), "Minibodies" (Martin et al., 1994, EMBO J. 13:5303-9),
"Diabodies" (Holliger et al., supra), or "Janusins" (Traunecker et
al., 1991, EMBO J. 10:3655-3659 and Traunecker et al., 1992, Int.
J. Cancer (Suppl.) 7:51-52) may be prepared using standard
molecular biological techniques following the teachings of the
specification.
[0732] For example, bispecific antibodies, monoclonal antibodies
that have binding specificities for at least two different
antigens, can be prepared using the antibodies disclosed herein.
Methods for making bispecific antibodies are known in the art (see,
e.g., Suresh et al., 1986, Methods in Enzymology 121:210). For
example, bispecific antibodies or antigen-binding fragments can be
produced by fusion of hybridomas or linking of Fab' fragments. See,
e.g., Songsivilai & Lachmann, 1990, Clin. Exp. Immunol.
79:315-321, Kostelny et al., 1992, J. Immunol. 148:1547-1553.
Traditionally, the recombinant production of bispecific antibodies
was based on the coexpression of two immunoglobulin heavy
chain-light chain pairs, with the two heavy chains having different
specificities (Millstein and Cuello, 1983, Nature 305, 537-539). In
addition, bispecific antibodies may be formed as "diabodies" or
"Janusins." In some embodiments, the bispecific antibody binds to
two different epitopes of TL1A. In some embodiments, the modified
antibodies described above are prepared using one or more of the
variable domains or CDR regions from a TL1A antibody provided
herein.
[0733] According to one approach to making bispecific antibodies,
antibody variable domains with the desired binding specificities
(antibody-antigen combining sites) are fused to immunoglobulin
constant region sequences. The fusion preferably is with an
immunoglobulin heavy chain constant region, comprising at least
part of the hinge, CH2 and CH3 regions. It is preferred to have the
first heavy chain constant region (CH1), containing the site
necessary for light chain binding, present in at least one of the
fusions. DNAs encoding the immunoglobulin heavy chain fusions and,
if desired, the immunoglobulin light chain, are inserted into
separate expression vectors, and are cotransfected into a suitable
host organism. This provides for great flexibility in adjusting the
mutual proportions of the three polypeptide fragments in
embodiments when unequal ratios of the three polypeptide chains
used in the construction provide the optimum yields. It is,
however, possible to insert the coding sequences for two or all
three polypeptide chains in one expression vector when the
expression of at least two polypeptide chains in equal ratios
results in high yields or when the ratios are of no particular
significance.
[0734] In one approach, the bispecific antibodies are composed of a
hybrid immunoglobulin heavy chain with a first binding specificity
in one arm, and a hybrid immunoglobulin heavy chain-light chain
pair (providing a second binding specificity) in the other arm.
This asymmetric structure, with an immunoglobulin light chain in
only one half of the bispecific molecule, facilitates the
separation of the desired bispecific compound from unwanted
immunoglobulin chain combinations. This approach is described in
PCT Publication No. WO 94/04690.
[0735] This invention also provides compositions comprising
antibodies conjugated (for example, linked) to an agent that
facilitate coupling to a solid support (such as biotin or avidin).
For simplicity, reference will be made generally to antibodies with
the understanding that these methods apply to any of the TL1A
binding and/or antagonist embodiments described herein. Conjugation
generally refers to linking these components as described herein.
The linking (which is generally fixing these components in
proximate association at least for administration) can be achieved
in any number of ways. For example, a direct reaction between an
agent and an antibody is possible when each possesses a substituent
capable of reacting with the other. For example, a nucleophilic
group, such as an amino or sulfhydryl group, on one may be capable
of reacting with a carbonyl-containing group, such as an anhydride
or an acid halide, or with an alkyl group containing a good leaving
group (e.g., a halide) on the other.
[0736] The antibodies can be bound to many different carriers.
Carriers can be active and/or inert. Examples of well-known
carriers include polypropylene, polystyrene, polyethylene, dextran,
nylon, amylases, glass, natural and modified celluloses,
polyacrylamides, agaroses and magnetite. The nature of the carrier
can be either soluble or insoluble for purposes of the invention.
Those skilled in the art will know of other suitable carriers for
binding antibodies, or will be able to ascertain such, using
routine experimentation.
[0737] An antibody or polypeptide of this invention may be linked
to a labeling agent such as a fluorescent molecule, a radioactive
molecule or any others labels known in the art. Labels are known in
the art which generally provide (either directly or indirectly) a
signal.
[0738] As described in greater detail in Example 1, this
application discloses multiple TL1A antibodies that may be
characterized as belonging to one of three different epitope
"bins." That is, antibodies which are grouped together in one
epitope bin compete with each other for binding to TL1A. More
specifically, antibody 1D1, its affinity optimized variants, and
antibodies 15A9 and 15C11, each compete for binding to TL1A and
thus are grouped together into a first epitope bin. Antibodies 7D4
and 22F9 also compete with each other for binding to TL1A, but bind
to a different epitope than the other antibodies disclosed herein,
and hence are grouped in a second epitope bin. Antibodies 26B11 and
9B3 compete with each other for binding to TL1A, but also bind to a
different epitope than the other antibodies disclosed herein and
therefore, they are grouped into a third epitope bin. Details of
the antibodies within each epitope bin are provided below.
[0739] The amino acid sequences of the light chain variable domain
(VL) heavy chain variable domains (VH), full length light chain
(LC), and full length heavy chain (HC) of the TL1A antibodies
disclosed herein are summarized in Table 2 by sequence
identification number. The nucleic acid sequences encoding the VL,
VH, LC, and HC of these antibodies are summarized in Table 3 by
sequence identification number. These sequences designated by the
sequence identification numbers provided in Tables 2 and 3 are set
forth in the Sequence Listing Table (Table 40).

having the ability to bind TL1A).
[0807] In one embodiment, the VH and VL domains, or antigen-binding
fragment thereof, or full length HC or LC, are encoded by separate
polynucleotides. Alternatively, both VH and VL, or antigen-binding
fragment thereof, or HC and LC, are encoded by a single
polynucleotide.
[0808] In another aspect, the invention provides polynucleotides
and variants therefor encoding a TL1A antibody, wherein such
variant polynucleotides share at least 70%, at least 75%, at least
80%, at least 85%, at least 87%, at least 89%, at least 90%, at
least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%,
at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, or at least 99% sequence
identity to any of the specific nucleic acid disclosed herein.
[0809] Polynucleotides complementary to any such sequences are also
encompassed by the present invention. Polynucleotides may be
single-stranded (coding or antisense) or double-stranded, and may
be DNA (genomic, cDNA or synthetic) or RNA molecules. RNA molecules
include HnRNA molecules, which contain introns and correspond to a
DNA molecule in a one-to-one manner, and mRNA molecules, which do
not contain introns. Additional coding or non-coding sequences may,
but need not, be present within a polynucleotide of the present
invention, and a polynucleotide may, but need not, be linked to
other molecules and/or support materials.
[0810] Polynucleotides may comprise a native sequence (i.e., an
endogenous sequence that encodes an antibody or a fragment thereof)
or may comprise a variant of such a sequence. Polynucleotide
variants contain one or more substitutions, additions, deletions
and/or insertions such that the immunoreactivity of the encoded
polypeptide is not diminished, relative to a native immunoreactive
molecule. The effect on the immunoreactivity of the encoded
polypeptide may generally be assessed as described herein. Variants
preferably exhibit at least about 70% identity, more preferably, at
least about 80% identity, yet more preferably, at least about 90%
identity, and most preferably, at least about 95% identity to a
polynucleotide sequence that encodes a native antibody or a
fragment thereof.
[0811] Two polynucleotide or polypeptide sequences are said to be
"identical" if the sequence of nucleotides or amino acids in the
two sequences is the same when aligned for maximum correspondence
as described below. Comparisons between two sequences are typically
performed by comparing the sequences over a comparison window to
identify and compare local regions of sequence similarity. A
"comparison window" as used herein, refers to a segment of at least
about 20 contiguous positions, usually 30 to about 75, or 40 to
about 50, in which a sequence may be compared to a reference
sequence of the same number of contiguous positions after the two
sequences are optimally aligned.
[0812] Optimal alignment of sequences for comparison may be
conducted using the MegAlign.RTM. program in the Lasergene.RTM.
suite of bioinformatics software (DNASTAR.RTM., Inc., Madison,
Wis.), using default parameters. This program embodies several
alignment schemes described in the following references: Dayhoff,
M. O., 1978, A model of evolutionary change in proteins--Matrices
for detecting distant relationships. In Dayhoff, M. O. (ed.) Atlas
of Protein Sequence and Structure, National Biomedical Research

[0813] Preferably, the "percentage of sequence identity" is
determined by comparing two optimally aligned sequences over a
window of comparison of at least 20 positions, wherein the portion
of the polynucleotide or polypeptide sequence in the comparison
window may comprise additions or deletions (i.e., gaps) of 20
percent or less, usually 5 to 15 percent, or 10 to 12 percent, as
compared to the reference sequences (which does not comprise
additions or deletions) for optimal alignment of the two sequences.
The percentage is calculated by determining the number of positions
at which the identical nucleic acid bases or amino acid residue
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 reference sequence (i.e., the window size) and
multiplying the results by 100 to yield the percentage of sequence
identity.
[0814] Variants may also, or alternatively, be substantially
homologous to a native gene, or a portion or complement thereof.
Such polynucleotide variants are capable of hybridizing under
moderately stringent conditions to a naturally occurring DNA
sequence encoding a native antibody (or a complementary
sequence).
[0815] Suitable "moderately stringent conditions" include
prewashing in a solution of 5.times.SSC, 0.5% SDS, 1.0 mM EDTA (pH
8.0); hybridizing at 50.degree. C.-65.degree. C., 5.times.SSC,
overnight; followed by washing twice at 65.degree. C. for 20
minutes with each of 2.times., 0.5.times. and 0.2.times.SSC
containing 0.1% SDS.
[0816] As used herein, "highly stringent conditions" or "high
stringency conditions" are those that: (1) employ low ionic
strength and high temperature for washing, for example 0.015 M
sodium chloride/0.0015 M sodium citrate/0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate
at 50.degree. C.; (2) employ during hybridization a denaturing
agent, such as formamide, for example, 50% (v/v) formamide with
0.1% bovine serum albumin/0.1% FicoII/0.1% polyvinylpyrrolidone/50
mM sodium phosphate buffer at pH 6.5 with 750 mM sodium chloride,
75 mM sodium citrate at 42.degree. C.; or (3) employ 50% formamide,
5.times.SSC (0.75 M NaCl, 0.075 M sodium citrate), 50 mM sodium
phosphate (pH 6.8), 0.1% sodium pyrophosphate, 5.times.Denhardt's
solution, sonicated salmon sperm DNA (50 .mu.g/ml), 0.1% SDS, and
10% dextran sulfate at 42.degree. C., with washes at 42.degree. C.
in 0.2.times.SSC (sodium chloride/sodium citrate) and 50% formamide
at 55.degree. C., followed by a high-stringency wash consisting of
0.1.times.SSC containing EDTA at 55.degree. C. The skilled artisan
will recognize how to adjust the temperature, ionic strength, etc.
as necessary to accommodate factors such as probe length and the
like.
[0817] It will be appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art
that, as a result of the degeneracy of the genetic code, there are
many nucleotide sequences that encode a polypeptide as described
herein. Some of these polynucleotides bear minimal homology to the
nucleotide sequence of any native gene. Nonetheless,
polynucleotides that vary due to differences in codon usage are
specifically contemplated by the present invention. Further,
alleles of the genes comprising the polynucleotide sequences
provided herein are within the scope of the present invention.
Alleles are endogenous genes that are altered as a result of one or
more mutations, such as deletions, additions and/or substitutions
of nucleotides. The resulting mRNA and protein may, but need not,
have an altered structure or function. Alleles may be identified
using standard techniques (such as hybridization, amplification
and/or database sequence comparison).
[0818] The polynucleotides of this invention can be obtained using
chemical synthesis, recombinant methods, or PCR. Methods of
chemical polynucleotide synthesis are well known in the art and
need not be described in detail herein. One of skill in the art can
use the sequences provided herein and a commercial DNA synthesizer
to produce a desired DNA sequence.
[0819] For preparing polynucleotides using recombinant methods, a
polynucleotide comprising a desired sequence can be inserted into a
suitable vector, and the vector in turn can be introduced into a
suitable host cell for replication and amplification, as further
discussed herein. Polynucleotides may be inserted into host cells
by any means known in the art. Cells are transformed by introducing
an exogenous polynucleotide by direct uptake, endocytosis,
transfection, F-mating or electroporation. Once introduced, the
exogenous polynucleotide can be maintained within the cell as a
non-integrated vector (such as a plasmid) or integrated into the
host cell genome. The polynucleotide so amplified can be isolated
from the host cell by methods well known within the art. See, e.g.,
Sambrook et al., 1989.
[0820] Alternatively, PCR allows reproduction of DNA sequences. PCR
technology is well known in the art and is described in U.S. Pat.
Nos. 4,683,195, 4,800,159, 4,754,065 and 4,683,202, as well as PCR:
The Polymerase Chain Reaction, Mullis et al. eds., Birkauswer
Press, Boston, 1994.
[0821] RNA can be obtained by using the isolated DNA in an
appropriate vector and inserting it into a suitable host cell. When
the cell replicates and the DNA is transcribed into RNA, the RNA
can then be isolated using methods well known to those of skill in
the art, as set forth in Sambrook et al., 1989, supra, for
example.
[0822] Suitable cloning vectors may be constructed according to
standard techniques, or may be selected from a large number of
cloning vectors available in the art. While the cloning vector
selected may vary according to the host cell intended to be used,
useful cloning vectors will generally have the ability to
self-replicate, may possess a single target for a particular
restriction endonuclease, and/or may carry genes for a marker that
can be used in selecting clones containing the vector. Suitable
examples include plasmids and bacterial viruses, e.g., pUC18,
pUC19, Bluescript (e.g., pBS SK+) and its derivatives, mp18, mp19,
pBR322, pMB9, ColE1, pCR1, RP4, phage DNAs, and shuttle vectors
such as pSA3 and pAT28. These and many other cloning vectors are
available from commercial vendors such as BioRad, Strategene, and
Invitrogen.
[0823] Expression vectors are further provided. Expression vectors
generally are replicable polynucleotide constructs that contain a
polynucleotide according to the invention. It is implied that an
expression vector must be replicable in the host cells either as
episomes or as an integral part of the chromosomal DNA. Suitable
expression vectors include but are not limited to plasmids, viral
vectors, including adenoviruses, adeno-associated viruses,
retroviruses, cosmids, and expression vector(s) disclosed in PCT
Publication No. WO 87/04462. Vector components may generally
include, but are not limited to, one or more of the following: a
signal sequence; an origin of replication; one or more marker
genes; suitable transcriptional controlling elements (such as
promoters, enhancers and terminator). For expression (i.e.,
translation), one or more translational controlling elements are
also usually required, such as ribosome binding sites, translation
initiation sites, and stop codons.
[0824] The vectors containing the polynucleotides of interest
and/or the polynucleotides themselves, can be introduced into the
host cell by any of a number of appropriate means, including
electroporation, transfection employing calcium chloride, rubidium
chloride, calcium phosphate, DEAE-dextran, or other substances;
microprojectile bombardment; lipofection; and infection (e.g.,
where the vector is an infectious agent such as vaccinia virus).
The choice of introducing vectors or polynucleotides will often
depend on features of the host cell.
[0825] The invention also provides host cells comprising any of the
polynucleotides described herein. Any host cells capable of
over-expressing heterologous DNAs can be used for the purpose of
isolating the genes encoding the antibody, polypeptide or protein
of interest. Non-limiting examples of mammalian host cells include
but not limited to COS, HeLa, and CHO cells. See also PCT
Publication No. WO 87/04462. Suitable non-mammalian host cells
include prokaryotes (such as E. coli or B. subtiffis) and yeast
(such as S. cerevisae, S. pombe; or K. lactis). Preferably, the
host cells express the cDNAs at a level of about 5 fold higher,
more preferably, 10 fold higher, even more preferably, 20 fold
higher than that of the corresponding endogenous antibody or
protein of interest, if present, in the host cells. Screening the
host cells for a specific binding to TL1A is effected by an
immunoassay or FACS. A cell overexpressing the antibody or protein
of interest can be identified.
[0826] An expression vector can be used to direct expression of a
TL1A antibody. One skilled in the art is familiar with
administration of expression vectors to obtain expression of an
exogenous protein in vivo. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,436,908;
6,413,942; and 6,376,471. Administration of expression vectors
includes local or systemic administration, including injection,
oral administration, particle gun or catheterized administration,
and topical administration. In another embodiment, the expression
vector is administered directly to the sympathetic trunk or
ganglion, or into a coronary artery, atrium, ventrical, or
pericardium.
[0827] Targeted delivery of therapeutic compositions containing an
expression vector, or subgenomic polynucleotides can also be used.
Receptor-mediated DNA delivery techniques are described in, for
example, Findeis et al., Trends Biotechnol., 1993, 11:202; Chiou et
al., Gene Therapeutics: Methods And Applications Of Direct Gene
Transfer, J. A. Wolff, ed., 1994; Wu et al., J. Biol. Chem., 1988,
263:621; Wu et al., J. Biol. Chem., 1994, 269:542; Zenke et al.,
Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 1990, 87:3655; Wu et al., J. Biol.
Chem., 1991, 266:338. Therapeutic compositions containing a
polynucleotide are administered in a range of about 100 ng to about
200 mg of DNA for local administration in a gene therapy protocol.
Concentration ranges of about 500 ng to about 50 mg, about 1 .mu.g
to about 2 mg, about 5 .mu.g to about 500 .mu.g, and about 20 .mu.g
to about 100 .mu.g of DNA can also be used during a gene therapy
protocol. The therapeutic polynucleotides and polypeptides can be
delivered using gene delivery vehicles. The gene delivery vehicle
can be of viral or non-viral origin (see generally, Jolly, Cancer
Gene Therapy, 1994, 1:51; Kimura, Human Gene Therapy, 1994, 5:845;
Connelly, Human Gene Therapy, 1995, 1:185; and Kaplitt, Nature
Genetics, 1994, 6:148). Expression of such coding sequences can be
induced using endogenous mammalian or heterologous promoters.
Expression of the coding sequence can be either constitutive or
regulated.
[0828] Viral-based vectors for delivery of a desired polynucleotide
and expression in a desired cell are well known in the art.
Exemplary viral-based vehicles include, but are not limited to,
recombinant retroviruses (see, e.g., PCT Publication Nos. WO
90/07936; WO 94/03622; WO 93/25698; WO 93/25234; WO 93/11230; WO
93/10218; WO 91/02805; U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,219,740 and 4,777,127; GB
Patent No. 2,200,651; and EP Patent No. 0 345 242),
alphavirus-based vectors (e.g., Sindbis virus vectors, Semliki
forest virus (ATCC VR-67; ATCC VR-1247), Ross River virus (ATCC
VR-373; ATCC VR-1246) and Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus
(ATCC VR-923; ATCC VR-1250; ATCC VR 1249; ATCC VR-532)), and
adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors (see, e.g., PCT Publication
Nos. WO 94/12649, WO 93/03769; WO 93/19191; WO 94/28938; WO
95/11984 and WO 95/00655). Administration of DNA linked to killed
adenovirus as described in Curiel, Hum. Gene Ther., 1992, 3:147 can
also be employed.
[0829] Non-viral delivery vehicles and methods can also be
employed, including, but not limited to, polycationic condensed DNA
linked or unlinked to killed adenovirus alone (see, e.g., Curiel,
Hum. Gene Ther., 1992, 3:147); ligand-linked DNA (see, e.g., Wu, J.
Biol. Chem., 1989, 264:16985); eukaryotic cell delivery vehicles
cells (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,814,482; PCT Publication Nos. WO
95/07994; WO 96/17072; WO 95/30763; and WO 97/42338) and nucleic
charge neutralization or fusion with cell membranes. Naked DNA can
also be employed. Exemplary naked DNA introduction methods are
described in PCT Publication No. WO 90/11092 and U.S. Pat. No.
5,580,859. Liposomes that can act as gene delivery vehicles are
described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,422,120; PCT Publication Nos. WO
95/13796; WO 94/23697; WO 91/14445; and EP 0524968. Additional
approaches are described in Philip, Mol. Cell Biol., 1994, 14:2411,
and in Woffendin, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., 1994, 91:1581.
Antibody Binding
[0830] The antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof described
herein selectively bind tumor necrosis factor-like ligand 1A
(TL1A). In one embodiment, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof bind the human tumor necrosis factor-like ligand 1A
(hTL1A). In certain cases, particularly when developing a
therapeutic, it is advantageous for the antibody to cross-react
with TL1A from other species that can be used as surrogate models
of safety and/or efficacy. For example, in some cases, toxicity
and/or efficacy of a therapeutic can be measured in a surrogate
animal model of a particular disease. As such, in one embodiment,
the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof binds the human
tumor necrosis factor-like ligand 1A (hTL1A), as well as the tumor
necrosis factor-like ligand 1A from at least one other mammal
selected from the group consisting of a mouse, rat, dog, and a
cynologous monkey. In a particular embodiment, the KD of the
antibody for the tumor necrosis factor-like ligand 1A from at least
one other mammal selected from the group consisting of a mouse,
rat, dog, and a cynologous monkey is no greater than 30 fold
higher, for example, no greater than 20 fold higher, no greater
than 15 fold higher, or no greater than 10-fold higher, than the KD
of the antibody for hTL1A. In still another embodiment, the
antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof has an affinity for
the murine TL1A of 10 nM or less, for example, 3 nM or less, 1 nM
or less, 300 pM or less, or 100 pM or less, as measured by SPR.
[0831] In another embodiment, the antibody or antigen-binding
fragment thereof has an affinity for human TNF alpha of 1 .mu.M or
greater, for example, 3 .mu.M or greater, 10 .mu.M or greater, 30
.mu.M or greater, 100 .mu.M or greater, as measured by SPR.
[0832] In still another embodiment, the antibody or antigen-binding
fragment thereof has an affinity for the murine TL1A of 10 nM or
less, for example, 3 nM or less, 1 nM or less, 300 pM or less, or
100 pM or less, as measured by SPR. In a particular embodiment, the
antibody or antigen-binding fragment there of has an affinity for
the human TL1A of 100 pM or less, an affinity for the murine TL1A
of 300 pM or less, as measured by SPR, and an affinity for human
TNF alpha of 1 .mu.M or greater.
[0833] In one embodiment, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof has an affinity for human TL1A of 4 nM or less, for
example, 1 nM or less, 500 pM or less, 250 pM or less, 100 pM or
less, 50 pM or less, 25 pM or less, 10 pM or less, 5 pM or less, as
measured by surface plasmon resonance (SPR).
[0834] In another embodiment, the antibody or antigen-binding
fragment thereof has an affinity for human TNF alpha of 1 .mu.M or
greater, for example, 3 .mu.M or greater, 10 .mu.M or greater, 30
.mu.M or greater, 100 .mu.M or greater, as measured by SPR.
[0835] In still another embodiment, the antibody or antigen-binding
fragment thereof competes with the antibody selected from the group
consisting of 1D1 1.31, 26B11, 9B3, 7D4, 22F9, 15A9, and 15C11, as
defined herein below.
[0836] In a particular embodiment, the antibody or antigen-binding
fragment there of has an affinity for the human TL1A of 100 pM or
less, an affinity for the murine TL1A of 300 pM or less, as
measured by SPR, and an affinity for human TNF alpha of 1 .mu.M or
greater.
[0837] In certain cases, the binding of the antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof to TL1A or any other protein can
be measured using surface plasmon resonance (SPR). In certain
embodiments, the affinity is the KD value as measured by SPR. In
still other cases, the SPR uses a captured antibody, and solution
phase target. In some embodiments, the captured antibody is
immobilized onto a sensor chip using an anti-isotype antibody or
antigen binding portion thereof. For example, the anti-isotype
antibody or antigen binding portion thereof can be immobilized onto
the sensor chip to a density of between about 4,000 and about
13,000 response units. SPR measurement can also be performed, for
example, as substantially conducted according to the protocol set
out in Example 8. In some cases, the SPR uses a captured target,
and solution phase antibody. In some embodiments, the SPR
measurement is conducted using a Biacore T100 or T200
instrument.
[0838] In other embodiments, the affinity of the antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof for human TL1A is measured by
solution-based kinetic exclusion assay (KinExA). For example, in
some cases, the affinity is the KD value as measured by
solution-based kinetic exclusion assay (KinExA). In other cases,
the KinExA uses a captured target on a solid phase, and a solution
phase antibody. In still other cases, the antibody and target are
pre-incubated in solution long enough to reach equilibrium. In one
embodiment, the level of unbound antibody is measured after the
antibody and target have reached equilibrium. In a particular
embodiment, the KinExA measurement is conducted using a KinExA 3200
instrument (Sapidyne).
Therapeutic Methods
[0839] Therapeutic methods involve administering to a subject in
need of treatment a therapeutically effective amount, or effective
amount, of a TL1A antibody, or antigen-binding portion, of the
invention and are contemplated by the present disclosure. As used
herein, a "therapeutically effective", or "effective", amount
refers to an amount of an antibody or portion thereof that is of
sufficient quantity to result in a decrease in severity of disease
symptoms, an increase in frequency and duration of disease
symptom-free periods, or a prevention of impairment or disability
due to the disease affliction--either as a single dose or according
to a multiple dose regimen, alone or in combination with other
agents. One of ordinary skill in the art would be able to determine
such amounts based on such factors as the subject's size, the
severity of the subject's symptoms, and the particular composition
or route of administration selected. The subject may be a human or
non-human animal (e.g., rabbit, rat, mouse, monkey or other
lower-order primate).
[0840] An antibody or antigen-binding portion of the invention
might be co-administered with known medicaments, and in some
instances the antibody might itself be modified. For example, an
antibody could be conjugated to an immunotoxin or radioisotope to
potentially further increase efficacy. Regarding co-administration
with additional therapeutic agents, such agents can include a
cytotoxic agent, a radiotoxic agent or an immunosuppressive agent.
The antibody can be linked to the agent (as an immunocomplex) or
can be administered separately from the agent. In the latter case
(separate administration), the antibody can be administered before,
after or concurrently with the agent or can be co-administered with
other known therapies, e.g., an anti-cancer therapy, e.g.,
radiation. Co-administration of the TL1A antibodies, or antigen
binding fragments thereof, of the present disclosure with a
therapeutic agent provides two agents which operate via different
mechanisms may provide a therapeutic and perhaps synergistic effect
to human disease.
[0841] The antibodies and antigen-binding portions disclosed herein
can be used as a therapeutic or a diagnostic tool in a variety of
situations where TL1A is undesirably expressed or found as
reviewed, for example, in Hsu and Viney, supra. Given the
involvement of TL1A in flammatory pathways and in numerous
diseases, disorders and conditions, many such diseases, disorders
or conditions are particularly suitable for treatment with an
antibody or antigen-binding portion of the present invention.
Accordingly, the TL1A antibodies, or antigen binding fragments
thereof, of this disclosure can used in the treatment or prevention
of TL1A-mediated disorders. In addition, the invention provides for
use of the TL1A antibodies, or antigen binding fragments thereof,
of this disclosure in the manufacture of a medicament for use in
treatment or prevention of TL1A-mediated disorders. In another
embodiment, this application discloses TL1A antibodies, or antigen
binding fragments thereof, for use in treatment of TL1A-mediated
disorders. In a further embodiment, this application discloses
pharmaceutical compositions comprising the TL1A antibodies, or
antigen binding fragments thereof, of this disclosure for use in
treating or preventing TL1A-mediated diseases. These TL1A-mediated
diseases, disorders or conditions include, but are not limited to,
inflammatory disorder such as IBD (including Crohn's disease and
ulcerative colitis), asthma (including intrinsic asthma and
allergic asthma), allergies (for example, atopic allergy), diabetes
mellitus, arthritic disorders (including rheumatoid arthritis,
juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, psoriatic arthritis,
and ankylosing spondylitis), multiple sclerosis, transplant
rejection, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), spondyloarthropathy,
primary sclerosing cholangitis, primary biliary cirrhosis,
atherosclerosis, bladder syndrome/intersticial cystitis, Urinary
bowel disfunction, sepsis, uveitis, encephalomyelitis, myasthenia
gravis, systemic lupus erythematosus, cutaneous lupus
erythematosus, autoimmune thyroiditis, dermatitis (including atopic
dermatitis and eczematous dermatitis), psoriasis, Sjogren's
syndrome, scleroderma, and vasculitis.
[0842] To treat any of the foregoing disorders, pharmaceutical
compositions for use in accordance with the present disclosure may
be formulated in a conventional manner using one or more
pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients and administered
as more fully discussed below.
[0843] Determining a therapeutically effective amount of an
antibody or antigen-binding portion according to the present
disclosure will largely depend on particular patient
characteristics, route of administration, and the nature of the
disorder being treated and is more fully discussed below.
[0844] Administration and dosing of the antibody are more fully
discussed elsewhere below.
Diagnostic Methods
[0845] The TL1A antibodies, or antigen binding portions thereof
disclosed herein can be used for diagnostic testing and imaging.
For example, the TL1A antibodies or antigen binding portions
thereof can be used in an ELISA assay. The antibodies or antigen
binding portions thereof can also be used as a radiolabeled
monoclonal antibody. See, for example, Srivastava (ed.),
Radiolabeled Monoclonal Antibodies For Imaging And Therapy, Plenum
Press (1988); Chase, "Medical Applications of Radioisotopes," in
Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th Edition, Gennaro et al.
(eds.), Mack Publishing Co., pp. 624-652 (1990); and Brown,
"Clinical Use of Monoclonal Antibodies," in Biotechnology and
Pharmacy, Pezzuto et al. (eds.), Chapman and Hall, pp. 227-249
(1993); Grossman, 1986, Urol. Clin. North Amer. 13:465-474; Unger
et al., 1985, Invest. Radiol. 20:693-700; and Khaw et al., 1980,
Science 209:295-297. This technique, also known as
immunoscintigraphy, uses a gamma camera to detect the location of
gamma-emitting radioisotopes conjugated to monoclonal antibodies.
Diagnostic imaging can be used to diagnose cancer, autoimmune
disease, infectious disease and/or cardiovascular disease. (See,
e.g., Brown, supra.)
[0846] In one embodiment, the TL1A antibodies or antigen binding
fragments thereof can be used to diagnose TL1A-related diseases,
disorders, or conditions, including immune-related diseases. For
example, the antibodies, or antigen binding fragments thereof, can
be used to detect TL1A levels in patients, among other uses.
[0847] In addition to diagnosis, the TL1A antibodies or antigen
binding fragments thereof can be used to monitor therapeutic
responses, detect recurrences of a disease, and guide subsequent
clinical decisions.
[0848] In some embodiments, for diagnostic and monitoring purposes,
radioisotopes may be bound to antibody fragments either directly or
indirectly by using an intermediary functional group. Such
intermediary functional groups include, for example, DTPA
(diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid) and EDTA (ethylene diamine
tetraacetic acid). The radiation dose delivered to the patient is
typically maintained at as low a level as possible. This may be
accomplished through the choice of isotope for the best combination
of minimum half-life, minimum retention in the body, and minimum
quantity of isotope which will permit detection and accurate
measurement. Examples of radioisotopes which can be bound to
antibodies and are appropriate for diagnostic imaging include
.sup.99mTc and .sup.111In.
[0849] Studies indicate that antibody fragments, particularly Fab
and Fab', provide suitable tumor/background ratios. (See, e.g.,
Brown, supra.)
[0850] The TL1A antibody or antigen binding fragments thereof also
can be labeled with paramagnetic ions for purposes of in vivo
diagnosis. Elements which are particularly useful for Magnetic
Resonance Imaging include Gd, Mn, Dy, and Fe ions.
[0851] The TL1A antibody or antigen binding fragments thereof can
also detect the presence of TL1A in vitro. In such immunoassays,
the antibody or antigen binding fragments thereof may be utilized
in liquid phase or bound to a solid-phase carrier. For example, an
intact antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, can be
attached to a polymer, such as aminodextran, in order to link the
antibody component to an insoluble support such as a polymer-coated
bead, plate, or tube.
[0852] Alternatively, the TL1A antibody or antigen binding
fragments thereof can be used to detect the presence of particular
antigens in tissue sections prepared from a histological specimen.
Such in situ detection can be accomplished, for example, by
applying a detectably-labeled TL1A antibody or antigen binding
fragment thereof to the tissue sections. In situ detection can be
used to determine the presence of a particular antigen and to
determine the distribution of the antigen in the examined tissue.
General techniques of in situ detection are well known to those of
ordinary skill. (See, e.g., Ponder, "Cell Marking Techniques and
Their Application," in Mammalian Development: A Practical Approach,
Monk (ed.), IRL Press, pp. 115-138 (1987); Coligan et al.,
supra.)
[0853] Detectable labels such as enzymes, fluorescent compounds,
electron transfer agents, and the like can be linked to a carrier
by conventional methods well known to the art. These labeled
carriers and the antibody conjugates prepared from them can be used
for in vitro immunoassays and for in situ detection, much as an
antibody conjugate can be prepared by direct attachment of the
labels to antibody. The loading of the antibody conjugates with a
plurality of labels can increase the sensitivity of immunoassays or
histological procedures, where only a low extent of binding of the
antibody, or antibody fragment, to target antigen is achieved.
Compositions
[0854] The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions
comprising an effective amount of a TL1A antibody described herein.
Examples of such compositions, as well as how to formulate, are
also described herein. In some embodiments, the composition
comprises one or more TL1A antibodies. In other embodiments, the
TL1A antibody recognizes TL1A. In other embodiments, the TL1A
antibody is a human antibody. In other embodiments, the TL1A
antibody is a humanized antibody. In some embodiments, the TL1A
antibody comprises a constant region that is capable of triggering
a desired immune response, such as antibody-mediated lysis or ADCC.
In other embodiments, the TL1A antibody comprises a constant region
that does not trigger an unwanted or undesirable immune response,
such as antibody-mediated lysis or ADCC. In other embodiments, the
TL1A antibody comprises one or more CDR(s) of the antibody (such as
one, two, three, four, five, or, in some embodiments, all six
CDRs).
[0855] It is understood that the compositions can comprise more
than one TL1A antibody (e.g., a mixture of TL1A antibodies that
recognize different epitopes of TL1A). Other exemplary compositions
comprise more than one TL1A antibody that recognize the same
epitope(s), or different species of TL1A antibodies that bind to
different epitopes of TL1A. In some embodiments, the compositions
comprise a mixture of TL1A antibodies that recognize different
variants of TL1A.
[0856] In some cases, it is desirable to have an antibody or
antigen-binding fragment with high solubility in aqueous solution
or in pharmaceutical formulations. Therefore, in one embodiment,
the antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof according to the
present invention has a solubility of at least about 10 mg/ml, for
example, at least about about 20 mg/ml, at least about 30 mg/ml, at
least about 40 mg/ml, at least about 50 mg/ml, at least about 60
mg/ml, at least about 70 mg/ml, at least about 80 mg/ml, at least
about 90 mg/ml, at least about 100 mg/ml, at least about 125 mg/ml,
at least about 150 mg/ml, at least about 175 mg/ml, and at least
about 200 mg/ml, in aqueous solution. In certain cases, the aqueous
solution is a solution with a pH of about 5.0-9.0. In other cases,
the pH of the aqueous solution is between about pH 6.0 and pH
8.0.
[0857] The composition used in the present invention can further
comprise pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, excipients, or
stabilizers (Remington: The Science and practice of Pharmacy 20th
Ed., 2000, Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, Ed. K. E. Hoover), in
the form of lyophilized formulations or aqueous solutions.
Acceptable carriers, excipients, or stabilizers are nontoxic to
recipients at the dosages and concentrations, and may comprise
buffers such as phosphate, citrate, and other organic acids;
antioxidants including ascorbic acid and methionine; preservatives
(such as octadecyldimethylbenzyl ammonium chloride; hexamethonium
chloride; benzalkonium chloride, benzethonium chloride; phenol,
butyl or benzyl alcohol; alkyl parabens such as methyl or propyl
paraben; catechol; resorcinol; cyclohexanol; 3-pentanol; and
m-cresol); low molecular weight (less than about 10 residues)
polypeptides; proteins, such as serum albumin, gelatin, or
immunoglobulins; hydrophilic polymers such as polyvinylpyrrolidone;
amino acids such as glycine, glutamine, asparagine, histidine,
arginine, or lysine; monosaccharides, disaccharides, and other
carbohydrates including glucose, mannose, or dextrans; chelating
agents such as EDTA; sugars such as sucrose, mannitol, trehalose or
sorbitol; salt-forming counter-ions such as sodium; metal complexes
(e.g. Zn-protein complexes); and/or non-ionic surfactants such as
TWEEN.TM., PLURONICS.TM. or polyethylene glycol (PEG).
Pharmaceutically acceptable excipients are further described
herein.
[0858] The TL1A antibody and compositions thereof can also be used
in conjunction with other agents that serve to enhance and/or
complement the effectiveness of the agents.
[0859] The invention also provides compositions, including
pharmaceutical compositions, comprising any of the polynucleotides
of the invention. In some embodiments, the composition comprises an
expression vector comprising a polynucleotide encoding the antibody
as described herein. In other embodiments, the composition
comprises an expression vector comprising a polynucleotide encoding
any of the antibodies described herein. In still other embodiments,
the composition comprises either or both of the polynucleotides
comprising the sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 103 and SEQ ID NO: 105,
either or both of the polynucleotides shown in SEQ ID NO: 107 and
SEQ ID NO: 109, either or both of the polynucleotides shown in SEQ

NO:208, or either or both of the polynucleotides shown in SEQ ID
NO:103 and SEQ ID NO:213, or either or both of the polynucleotides
shown in SEQ ID NO:107 and SEQ ID NO:215, or either or both of the
polynucleotides shown in SEQ ID NO:103 and SEQ ID NO:220, or either

NO:103 and SEQ ID NO:227, or either or both of the polynucleotides
shown in SEQ ID NO:107 and SEQ ID NO:229, or either or both of the
polynucleotides shown in SEQ ID NO:103 and SEQ ID NO:241, or either
or both of the polynucleotides shown in SEQ ID NO:107 and SEQ ID
NO:243, or either or both of the polynucleotides shown in SEQ ID
NO:103 and SEQ ID NO:248, or either or both of the polynucleotides
shown in SEQ ID NO:107 and SEQ ID NO:250, or either or both of the
polynucleotides shown in SEQ ID NO:23 and SEQ ID NO:25, or either
or both of the polynucleotides shown in SEQ ID NO:27 and SEQ ID
NO:29, or either or both of the polynucleotides shown in SEQ ID
NO:37 and SEQ ID NO:39, or either or both of the polynucleotides
shown in SEQ ID NO:41 and SEQ ID NO:43, or either or both of the
polynucleotides shown in SEQ ID NO:89 and SEQ ID NO:91, or either

or either or both of the polynucleotides shown in SEQ ID NO:8 and
SEQ ID NO:10, or either or both of the polynucleotides shown in SEQ
ID NO:8 and SEQ ID NO:12.
[0860] In another aspect, the polynucleotide can encode the VH, VL
and/or both VH and VL of the antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof of the invention. That is, the composition comprises a
single polynucleotide or more than one polynucleotide encoding the
antibody, or antigen-binding portion thereof, or the invention.
[0861] Pharmaceutical compositions of the disclosure also can be
administered in combination therapy, such as, combined with other
agents. For example, the combination therapy can include TL1A
antibody, or antigen binding fragment thereof, of the present
disclosure combined with at least one other therapy wherein the
therapy may be surgery, immunotherapy, chemotherapy, radiation
treatment, or drug therapy.
[0862] The pharmaceutical compounds of the disclosure may include
one or more pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Examples of such
salts include acid addition salts and base addition salts. Acid
addition salts include those derived from nontoxic inorganic acids,
such as hydrochloric, nitric, phosphoric, sulfuric, hydrobromic,
hydroiodic, phosphorous and the like, as well as from nontoxic
organic acids such as aliphatic mono- and dicarboxylic acids,
phenyl-substituted alkanoic acids, hydroxy alkanoic acids, aromatic
acids, aliphatic and aromatic sulfonic acids and the like. Base
addition salts include those derived from alkaline earth metals,
such as sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium and the like, as well
as from nontoxic organic amines, such as
N,N'-dibenzylethylenediamine, N-methylglucamine, chloroprocaine,
choline, diethanolamine, ethylenediamine, procaine and the
like.
[0863] A pharmaceutical composition of the disclosure also may
include a pharmaceutically acceptable anti-oxidant. Examples of
pharmaceutically acceptable antioxidants include: (1) water soluble
antioxidants, such as ascorbic acid, cysteine hydrochloride, sodium
bisulfate, sodium metabisulfite, sodium sulfite and the like; (2)
oil-soluble antioxidants, such as ascorbyl palmitate, butylated
hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), lecithin,
propyl gallate, alpha-tocopherol, and the like; and (3) metal
chelating agents, such as citric acid, ethylenediamine tetraacetic
acid (EDTA), sorbitol, tartaric acid, phosphoric acid, and the
like.
[0864] Examples of suitable aqueous and non-aqueous carriers that
may be employed in the pharmaceutical compositions of the
disclosure include water, ethanol, polyols (such as glycerol,
propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, and the like), and suitable
mixtures thereof, vegetable oils, such as olive oil, and injectable
organic esters, such as ethyl oleate. Proper fluidity can be
maintained, for example, by the use of coating materials, such as
lecithin, by the maintenance of the required particle size in the
case of dispersions, and by the use of surfactants.
[0865] These compositions may also contain adjuvants such as
preservatives, wetting agents, emulsifying agents and dispersing
agents. Prevention of presence of microorganisms may be ensured
both by sterilization procedures and by the inclusion of various
antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, paraben,
chlorobutanol, phenol sorbic acid, and the like. It may also be
desirable to include isotonic agents, such as sugars, sodium
chloride, and the like into the compositions. In addition,
prolonged absorption of the injectable pharmaceutical form may be
brought about by the inclusion of agents which delay absorption
such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin.
[0866] Pharmaceutical compositions typically must be sterile and
stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage. The
composition can be formulated as a solution, microemulsion,
liposome, or other ordered structure suitable to high drug
concentration. The carrier can be a solvent or dispersion medium
containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (for example,
glycerol, propylene glycol, and liquid polyethylene glycol, and the
like), and suitable mixtures thereof. The proper fluidity can be
maintained, for example, by the use of a coating such as lecithin,
by the maintenance of the required particle size in the case of
dispersion and by the use of surfactants. In many cases, it will be
suitable to include isotonic agents, for example, sugars,
polyalcohols such as mannitol, sorbitol, or sodium chloride in the
composition. Prolonged absorption of the injectable compositions
can be brought about by including in the composition an agent that
delays absorption, for example, monostearate salts and gelatin.
[0867] Sterile injectable solutions can be prepared by
incorporating the active compound in the required amount in an
appropriate solvent with one or a combination of ingredients
enumerated above, as required, followed by sterilization
microfiltration.
[0868] Generally, dispersions are prepared by incorporating the
active compound into a sterile vehicle that contains a basic
dispersion medium and the required other ingredients from those
enumerated above. In the case of sterile powders for the
preparation of sterile injectable solutions, the preferred methods
of preparation are vacuum drying and freeze-drying (lyophilization)
that yield a powder of the active ingredient plus any additional
desired ingredient from a previously sterile-filtered solution
thereof.
[0869] A pharmaceutical composition of the present disclosure may
be prepared, packaged, or sold in a formulation suitable for
ophthalmic administration. Such formulations may, for example, be
in the form of eye drops including, for example, a 0.1 1.0% (w/w)
solution or suspension of the active ingredient in an aqueous or
oily liquid carrier. Such drops may further comprise buffering
agents, salts, or one or more other of the additional ingredients
described herein. Other ophthalmalmically-administrable
formulations which are useful include those which comprise the
active ingredient in microcrystalline form or in a liposomal
preparation.
[0870] As used herein, "additional ingredients" include, but are
not limited to, one or more of the following: excipients; surface
active agents; dispersing agents; inert diluents; granulating and
disintegrating agents; binding agents; lubricating agents;
sweetening agents; flavoring agents; coloring agents;
preservatives; physiologically degradable compositions such as
gelatin; aqueous vehicles and solvents; oily vehicles and solvents;
suspending agents; dispersing or wetting agents; emulsifying
agents, demulcents; buffers; salts; thickening agents; fillers;
emulsifying agents; antioxidants; antibiotics; antifungal agents;
stabilizing agents; and pharmaceutically acceptable polymeric or
hydrophobic materials. Other "additional ingredients" which may be
included in the pharmaceutical compositions of the invention are
known in the art and described, for example in Remington's
Pharmaceutical Sciences, Genaro, ed., Mack Publishing Co., Easton,
Pa. (1985), which is incorporated herein by reference.
[0871] In one embodiment, the TL1A antibody, or antigen binding
fragment thereof, is administered in an intravenous formulation as
a sterile aqueous solution containing 5 mg/ml, or more preferably,
about 10 mg/ml, or yet more preferably, about 15 mg/ml, or even
more preferably, about 20 mg/ml of antibody, with sodium acetate,
polysorbate 80, and sodium chloride at a pH ranging from about 5 to
6. Preferably, the intravenous formulation is a sterile aqueous
solution containing 5 or 10 mg/ml of antibody, with 20 mM sodium
acetate, 0.2 mg/ml polysorbate 80, and 140 mM sodium chloride at pH
5.5. Further, a solution comprising an antibody, or antigen binding
fragment thereof, can comprise, among many other compounds,
histidine, mannitol, sucrose, trehalose, glycine, poly(ethylene)
glycol, EDTA, methionine, and any combination thereof, and many
other compounds known in the relevant art.
[0872] In one embodiment, a pharmaceutical composition of the
present disclosure comprises the following components: 100 mg TL1A
antibody or antigen binding fragment of the present disclosure, 10
mM histidine, 5% sucrose, and 0.01% polysorbate 80 at pH 5.8. This
composition may be provided as a lyophilized powder. When the
powder is reconstituted at full volume, the composition retains the
same formulation. Alternatively, the powder may be reconstituted at
half volume, in which case the composition comprises 100 mg TL1A
antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof of the present
disclosure, 20 mM histidine, 10% sucrose, and 0.02% polysorbate 80
at pH 5.8.
[0873] In one embodiment, part of the dose is administered by an
intraveneous bolus and the rest by infusion of the antibody
formulation. For example, a 0.01 mg/kg intravenous injection of the
TL1A antibody, or antigen binding fragment thereof, may be given as
a bolus, and the rest of the antibody dose may be administered by
intravenous injection. A predetermined dose of the TL1A antibody,
or antigen binding fragment thereof, may be administered, for
example, over a period of an hour and a half to two hours to five
hours.
[0874] With regard to a therapeutic agent, where the agent is,
e.g., a small molecule, it can be present in a pharmaceutical
composition in the form of a physiologically acceptable ester or
salt, such as in combination with a physiologically acceptable
cation or anion, as is well known in the art.
[0875] The formulations of the pharmaceutical compositions
described herein may be prepared by any method known or hereafter
developed in the art of pharmacology. In general, such preparatory
methods include the step of bringing the active ingredient into
association with a carrier or one or more other accessory
ingredients, and then, if necessary or desirable, shaping or
packaging the product into a desired single- or multi-dose
unit.
[0876] In one embodiment the compositions of the disclosure are
pyrogen-free formulations which are substantially free of
endotoxins and/or related pyrogenic substances. Endotoxins include
toxins that are confined inside a microorganism and are released
when the microorganisms are broken down or die. Pyrogenic
substances also include fever-inducing, thermostable substances
(glycoproteins) from the outer membrane of bacteria and other
microorganisms. Both of these substances can cause fever,
hypotension and shock if administered to humans. Due to the
potential harmful effects, it is advantageous to remove even low
amounts of endotoxins from intravenously administered
pharmaceutical drug solutions. The Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) has set an upper limit of 5 endotoxin units (EU) per dose per
kilogram body weight in a single one hour period for intravenous
drug applications (The United States Pharmacopeial Convention,
Pharmacopeial Forum 26 (1):223 (2000)). When therapeutic proteins
are administered in amounts of several hundred or thousand
milligrams per kilogram body weight it is advantageous to remove
even trace amounts of endotoxin. In one embodiment, endotoxin and
pyrogen levels in the composition are less than 10 EU/mg, or less
than 5 EU/mg, or less than 1 EU/mg, or less than 0.1 EU/mg, or less
than 0.01 EU/mg, or less than 0.001 EU/mg. In another embodiment,
endotoxin and pyrogen levels in the composition are less than about
10 EU/mg, or less than about 5 EU/mg, or less than about 1 EU/mg,
or less than about 0.1 EU/mg, or less than about 0.01 EU/mg, or
less than about 0.001 EU/mg.
[0877] In one embodiment, the disclosure comprises administering a
composition wherein said administration is oral, parenteral,
intramuscular, intranasal, vaginal, rectal, lingual, sublingual,
buccal, intrabuccal, intravenous, cutaneous, subcutaneous or
transdermal.
[0878] In another embodiment the disclosure further comprises
administering a composition in combination with other therapies,
such as surgery, chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, biological
therapy, immunotherapy or radiation therapy.
[0879] In some aspects, the compositions and methods of the
invention are specifically intended for use in combination with one
or more of the products and classes selected from the group
consisting of: analgesics such as acetaminophen, naproxen sodium,
ibuprofen, tramadol, aspirin, celecoxib, valdecoxib, indomethacin,
and other NSAIDs; COX-2 inhibitors; anti-inflammatory drugs;
sulfasalazine, mesalamine, balsalazide, and olsalazine; and
corticosteroids such as prednisone and budesonide;
immunosuppressant drugs such as azathioprine, mercaptopurine, TNF
blockers such as infliximab and adalimumab, methotrexate, and
cyclosporine; antibiotics such as metronidazole and ciprofloxacin;
anti-diarrheals such as loperamide; immunosuppressant drugs such as
azathioprine, mercaptopurine, corticosteroids; immunosuppressants;
Janus kinase-3 (Jak-3) inhibitors; and laxatives; antihistamines

Dosing/Administration
[0880] To prepare pharmaceutical or sterile compositions including
a TL1A antibody, or antigen binding fragment thereof of the
disclosure, the antibody is mixed with a pharmaceutically
acceptable carrier or excipient. Formulations of therapeutic and
diagnostic agents can be prepared by mixing with physiologically
acceptable carriers, excipients, or stabilizers in the form of,
e.g., lyophilized powders, slurries, aqueous solutions, lotions, or
suspensions (see, e.g., Hardman, et al. (2001) Goodman and Gilman's
The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, McGraw-Hill, New York,
N.Y.; Gennaro (2000) Remington: The Science and Practice of
Pharmacy, Lippincott, Williams, and Wilkins, New York, N.Y.; Avis,
et al. (eds.) (1993) Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms: Parenteral
Medications, Marcel Dekker, N.Y.; Lieberman, et al. (eds.) (1990)
Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms: Tablets, Marcel Dekker, N.Y.;
Lieberman, et al. (eds.) (1990) Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms:
Disperse Systems, Marcel Dekker, N.Y.; Weiner and Kotkoskie (2000)
Excipient Toxicity and Safety, Marcel Dekker, Inc., New York,
N.Y.).
[0881] Selecting an administration regimen for a therapeutic
depends on several factors, including the serum or tissue turnover
rate of the entity, the level of symptoms, the immunogenicity of
the entity, and the accessibility of the target cells in the
biological matrix. In certain embodiments, an administration
regimen maximizes the amount of therapeutic delivered to the
patient consistent with an acceptable level of side effects.
Accordingly, the amount of biologic delivered depends in part on
the particular entity and the severity of the condition being
treated. Guidance in selecting appropriate doses of antibodies,
cytokines, and small molecules are available (see, e.g.,
Wawrzynczak, 1996, Antibody Therapy, Bios Scientific Pub. Ltd,
Oxfordshire, UK; Kresina (ed.), 1991, Monoclonal Antibodies,
Cytokines and Arthritis, Marcel Dekker, New York, N.Y.; Bach
(ed.),1993, Monoclonal Antibodies and Peptide Therapy in Autoimmune
Diseases, Marcel Dekker, New York, N.Y.; Baert, et al., 2003, New
Engl. J. Med. 348:601-608; Milgrom, et al., 1999, New Engl. J. Med.
341:1966-1973; Slamon, et al., 2001, New Engl. J. Med. 344:783-792;
Beniaminovitz, et al., 2000, New Engl. J. Med. 342:613-619; Ghosh,
et al., 2003, New Engl. J. Med. 348:24-32; Lipsky, et al., 2000,
New Engl. J. Med. 343:1594-1602).
[0882] Determination of the appropriate dose is made by the
clinician, e.g., using parameters or factors known or suspected in
the art to affect treatment or predicted to affect treatment.
Generally, the dose begins with an amount somewhat less than the
optimum dose and it is increased by small increments thereafter
until the desired or optimum effect is achieved relative to any
negative side effects. Important diagnostic measures include those
of symptoms of, e.g., the inflammation or level of inflammatory
cytokines produced.
[0883] Actual dosage levels of the active ingredients in the
pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure may be varied
so as to obtain an amount of the active ingredient which is
effective to achieve the desired therapeutic response for a
particular patient, composition, and mode of administration,
without being toxic to the patient. The selected dosage level will
depend upon a variety of pharmacokinetic factors including the
activity of the particular compositions of the present disclosure
employed, or the ester, salt or amide thereof, the route of
administration, the time of administration, the rate of excretion
of the particular compound being employed, the duration of the
treatment, other drugs, compounds and/or materials used in
combination with the particular compositions employed, the age,
sex, weight, condition, general health and prior medical history of
the patient being treated, and like factors well known in the
medical arts.
[0884] Compositions comprising TL1A antibodies or antigen binding
fragments thereof, of the disclosure can be provided by continuous
infusion, or by doses at intervals of, e.g., one day, one week, or
1-7 times per week. Doses may be provided intravenously,
subcutaneously, topically, orally, nasally, rectally,

[0889] Doses of TL1A antibodies, or antigen binding fragments
thereof of the disclosure may be repeated and the administrations
may be separated by at least 1 day, 2 days, 3 days, 5 days, 10
days, 15 days, 30 days, 45 days, 2 months, 75 days, 3 months, or at
least 6 months.
[0890] An effective amount for a particular patient may vary
depending on factors such as the condition being treated, the
overall health of the patient, the method route and dose of
administration and the severity of side effects (see, e.g.,
Maynard, et al., 1996, A Handbook of SOPs for Good Clinical
Practice, Interpharm Press, Boca Raton, Fla.; Dent, 2001, Good
Laboratory and Good Clinical Practice, Urch Publ, London, UK).
[0891] The route of administration may be by, e.g., topical or
cutaneous application, injection or infusion by intravenous,
intraperitoneal, intracerebral, intramuscular, intraocular,
intraarterial, intracerebrospinal, intralesional, or by sustained
release systems or an implant (see, e.g., Sidman et al., 1983,
Biopolymers 22:547-556; Langer, et al., 1981, J. Biomed. Mater.
Res. 15: 167-277; Langer, 1982, Chem. Tech. 12:98-105; Epstein, et
al., 1985, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 82:3688-3692; Hwang, et al.,
1980, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 77:4030-4034; U.S. Pat. Nos.
6,350,466 and 6,316,024). Where necessary, the composition may also
include a solubilizing agent and a local anesthetic such as
lidocaine to ease pain at the site of the injection. In addition,
pulmonary administration can also be employed, e.g., by use of an
inhaler or nebulizer, and formulation with an aerosolizing agent.
See, e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,019,968, 5,985,320, 5,985,309,
5,934,272, 5,874,064, 5,855,913, 5,290,540, and 4,880,078; and PCT
Publication Nos. WO 92/19244, WO 97/32572, WO 97/44013, WO
98/31346, and WO 99/66903, each of which is incorporated herein by
reference their entirety. In one embodiment, the TL1A antibody, or
antigen binding fragment thereof, or a composition of the
disclosure is administered using Alkermes AIR.TM. pulmonary drug
delivery technology (Alkermes, Inc., Cambridge, Mass.).
[0892] A composition of the present disclosure may also be
administered via one or more routes of administration using one or
more of a variety of methods known in the art. As will be
appreciated by the skilled artisan, the route and/or mode of
administration will vary depending upon the desired results.
Selected routes of administration for antibodies of the disclosure
include intravenous, intramuscular, intradermal, intraperitoneal,
subcutaneous, spinal or other parenteral routes of administration,
for example by injection or infusion. Parenteral administration may
represent modes of administration other than enteral and topical
administration, usually by injection, and includes, without
limitation, intravenous, intramuscular, intraarterial, intrathecal,
intracapsular, intraorbital, intracardiac, intradermal,
intraperitoneal, transtracheal, subcutaneous, subcuticular,
intraarticular, subcapsular, subarachnoid, intraspinal, epidural
and intrasternal injection and infusion. Alternatively, a
composition of the disclosure can be administered via a
non-parenteral route, such as a topical, epidermal or mucosal route
of administration, for example, intranasally, orally, vaginally,
rectally, sublingually or topically.
[0893] If the TL1A antibodies, or antigen binding fragments
thereof, of the disclosure are administered in a controlled release
or sustained release system, a pump may be used to achieve
controlled or sustained release (see Langer, supra; Sefton, 1987,
CRC Crit. Ref. Biomed. Eng. 14:20; Buchwald et al., 1980, Surgery
88:501; Saudek et al., 1989, N. Engl. J. Med. 321:514).
[0894] Polymeric materials can be used to achieve controlled or
sustained release of the therapies of the disclosure (see e.g.,
Medical Applications of Controlled Release, Langer and Wise (eds.),
CRC Pres., Boca Raton, Fla. (1974); Controlled Drug
Bioavailability, Drug Product Design and Performance, Smolen and
Ball (eds.), Wiley, New York (1984); Ranger and Peppas, 1983, J.,
Macromol. ScL Rev. Macromol. Chem. 23:61; see also Levy et al,
1985, Science 11 225:190; During et al., 19Z9, Ann. Neurol. 25:351;
Howard et al, 1989, J. Neurosurg. 71: 105); U.S. Pat. No.
5,679,377; U.S. Pat. No. 5,916,597; U.S. Pat. No. 5,912,015; U.S.
Pat. No. 5,989,463; U.S. Pat. No. 5,128,326; PCT Publication No. WO
99/15154; and PCT Publication No. WO 99/20253. Examples of polymers
used in sustained release formulations include, but are not limited
to, poly(2-hydroxy ethyl methacrylate), poly(methyl methacrylate),
poly(acrylic acid), poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate),
poly(methacrylic acid), polyglycolides (PLG), polyanhydrides,
poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone), polyvinyl alcohol), polyacrylamide,
polyethylene glycol), polylactides (PLA),
polyoeactide-co-glycolides) (PLGA), and polyorthoesters. In one
embodiment, the polymer used in a sustained release formulation is
inert, free of leachable impurities, stable on storage, sterile,
and biodegradable. A controlled or sustained release system can be
placed in proximity of the prophylactic or therapeutic target, 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)).
[0895] Controlled release systems are discussed in the review by
Langer, 1990, Science 249:1527-1533. Any technique known to one of
skill in the art can be used to produce sustained release
formulations comprising one or more antibodies of the disclosure or
conjugates thereof. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 4,526,938,
International Patent Publication Nos. WO 91/05548, WO 96/20698,

Colon Cancer Xenograft Using a Sustained-Release Gel," Radiotherapy
and Oncology 59:179-189, Song et al., 1995, "Antibody Mediated Lung
Targeting of Long-Circulating Emulsions," PDA Journal of
Pharmaceutical Science and Technology 50:372-397, Cleek et ah,
1997, "Biodegradable Polymeric Carriers for a bFGF Antibody for
Cardiovascular Application," Pro. MI. Symp. Control. Rel. Bioact.
Mater. 24:853-854, and Lam et al., 1997, "Microencapsulation of
Recombinant Humanized Monoclonal Antibody for Local Delivery,"
Proc. MI. Symp. Control Rel. Bioact. Mater. 24:759-160, each of
which is incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
[0896] If the TL1A antibody, or antigen binding fragment thereof,
of the disclosure is administered topically, it can be formulated
in the form of an ointment, cream, transdermal patch, lotion, gel,
shampoo, spray, aerosol, solution, emulsion, or other form
well-known to one of skill in the art. See, e.g., Remington's
Pharmaceutical Sciences and Introduction to Pharmaceutical Dosage
Forms, 19th ed., Mack Pub. Co., Easton, Pa. (1995). For
non-sprayable topical dosage forms, viscous to semi-solid or solid
forms comprising a carrier or one or more excipients compatible
with topical application and having a dynamic viscosity, in some
instances, greater than water are typically employed. Suitable
formulations include, without limitation, solutions, suspensions,
emulsions, creams, ointments, powders, liniments, salves, and the
like, which are, if desired, sterilized or mixed with auxiliary
agents (e.g., preservatives, stabilizers, wetting agents, buffers,
or salts) for influencing various properties, such as, for example,
osmotic pressure. Other suitable topical dosage forms include
sprayable aerosol preparations wherein the active ingredient, in
some instances, in combination with a solid or liquid inert
carrier, is packaged in a mixture with a pressurized volatile
(e.g., a gaseous propellant, such as freon) or in a squeeze bottle.
Moisturizers or humectants can also be added to pharmaceutical
compositions and dosage forms if desired. Examples of such
additional ingredients are well-known in the art.
[0897] If the compositions comprising TL1A antibodies, or antigen
binding fragments thereof, are administered intranasally, it can be
formulated in an aerosol form, spray, mist or in the form of drops.
In particular, prophylactic or therapeutic agents for use according
to the present disclosure can be conveniently delivered in the form
of an aerosol spray presentation from pressurized packs or a
nebuliser, with the use of a suitable propellant (e.g.,
dichlorodifluoromethane, trichlorofluoromethane,
dichlorotetrafluoroethane, carbon dioxide or other suitable gas).
In the case of a pressurized aerosol the dosage unit may be
determined by providing a valve to deliver a metered amount.
Capsules and cartridges (composed of, e.g., gelatin) for use in an
inhaler or insufflator may be formulated containing a powder mix of
the compound and a suitable powder base such as lactose or
starch.
[0898] Methods for co-administration or treatment with a second
therapeutic agent, e.g., a cytokine, steroid, chemotherapeutic
agent, antibiotic, or radiation, are well known in the art (see,
e.g., Hardman, et al. (eds.) (2001) Goodman and Gilman's The
Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 10 th ed., McGraw-Hill, New
York, N.Y.; Poole and Peterson (eds.) (2001) Pharmacotherapeutics
for Advanced Practice: A Practical Approach, Lippincott, Williams
and Wilkins, Phila., Pa.; Chabner and Longo (eds.) (2001) Cancer
Chemotherapy and Biotherapy, Lippincott, Williams and Wilkins,
Phila., Pa.). An effective amount of therapeutic may decrease the
symptoms by at least 10 percent; by at least 20 percent; at least
about 30 percent; at least 40 percent, or at least 50 percent.
[0899] Additional therapies (e.g., prophylactic or therapeutic
agents), which can be administered in combination with the TL1A
antibodies, or antigen binding fragments of the disclosure, may be
administered less than 5 minutes apart, less than 30 minutes apart,
1 hour apart, at about 1 hour apart, at about 1 to about 2 hours
apart, at about 2 hours to about 3 hours apart, at about 3 hours to
about 4 hours apart, at about 4 hours to about 5 hours apart, at
about 5 hours to about 6 hours apart, at about 6 hours to about 7
hours apart, at about 7 hours to about 8 hours apart, at about 8
hours to about 9 hours apart, at about 9 hours to about 10 hours
apart, at about 10 hours to about 11 hours apart, at about 11 hours
to about 12 hours apart, at about 12 hours to 18 hours apart, 18
hours to 24 hours apart, 24 hours to 36 hours apart, 36 hours to 48
hours apart, 48 hours to 52 hours apart, 52 hours to 60 hours
apart, 60 hours to 72 hours apart, 72 hours to 84 hours apart, 84
hours to 96 hours apart, or 96 hours to 120 hours apart from the
antibodies of the disclosure. The two or more therapies may be
administered within one same patient visit.
[0900] The TL1A antibodies, or antigen binding fragments thereof,
of the disclosure and the other therapies may be cyclically
administered. Cycling therapy involves the administration of a
first therapy (e.g., a first prophylactic or therapeutic agent) for
a period of time, followed by the administration of a second
therapy (e.g., a second prophylactic or therapeutic agent) for a
period of time, optionally, followed by the administration of a
third therapy (e.g., prophylactic or therapeutic agent) for a
period of time and so forth, and repeating this sequential
administration, i.e., the cycle in order to reduce the development
of resistance to one of the therapies, to avoid or reduce the side
effects of one of the therapies, and/or to improve the efficacy of
the therapies.
[0901] In one embodiment, the TL1A antibodies of the invention can
be co-administered with compositions for treating Crohn's Disease,
including compositions for inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines
and adhesion molecules, such as NSAIDs, 5-aminosalicylic acid,
glucocorticoids/corticosteroids, 6-mercaptopurine, or TNF-.alpha.
inhibitors, including adalimumab, infliximab, and others which are
known to persons skilled in the art.
[0902] In certain embodiments, the TL1A antibodies, or antigen
binding fragments thereof of the disclosure can be formulated to
ensure proper distribution in vivo. For example, the blood-brain
barrier (BBB) excludes many highly hydrophilic compounds. To ensure
that the therapeutic compounds of the disclosure cross the BBB (if
desired), they can be formulated, for example, in liposomes. For
methods of manufacturing liposomes, see, e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos.
4,522,811; 5,374,548; and 5,399,331. The liposomes may comprise one
or more moieties which are selectively transported into specific
cells or organs, thus enhance targeted drug delivery (see, e.g., V.
V. Ranade, 1989, J. Clin. Pharmacol. 29:685). Exemplary targeting
moieties include folate or biotin (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No.
5,416,016); mannosides (Umezawa et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res.
Commun. 153: 1038); antibodies (P. G. Bloeman et al., 1995, FEBS
Lett. 357: 140; M. Owais et al., 1995, Antimicrob. Agents
Chemother. 39: 180); surfactant protein A receptor (Briscoe et al.
(1995) Am. J. Physiol. 1233: 134); p120 (Schreier et al. (1994) J.
Biol. Chem. 269:9090); see also K. Keinanen; M. L. Laukkanen, 1994,
FEBS Lett. 346:123; Killion; Fidler, 1994; Immunomethods 4:273.
[0903] The disclosure provides protocols for the administration of
pharmaceutical composition comprising TL1A antibodies, or antigen
binding fragments thereof, of the disclosure alone or in
combination with other therapies to a subject in need thereof. The
therapies (e.g., prophylactic or therapeutic agents) of the
combination therapies of the present disclosure can be administered
concomitantly or sequentially to a subject. The therapy (e.g.,
prophylactic or therapeutic agents) of the combination therapies of
the present disclosure can also be cyclically administered. Cycling
therapy involves the administration of a first therapy (e.g., a
first prophylactic or therapeutic agent) for a period of time,
followed by the administration of a second therapy (e.g., a second
prophylactic or therapeutic agent) for a period of time and
repeating this sequential administration, i.e., the cycle, in order
to reduce the development of resistance to one of the therapies
(e.g., agents) to avoid or reduce the side effects of one of the
therapies (e.g., agents), and/or to improve, the efficacy of the
therapies.
[0904] The therapies (e.g., prophylactic or therapeutic agents) of
the combination therapies of the disclosure can be administered to
a subject concurrently. The term "concurrently" is not limited to
the administration of therapies (e.g., prophylactic or therapeutic
agents) at exactly the same time, but rather it is meant that a
pharmaceutical composition comprising TL1A antibodies, or antigen
binding fragments thereof, of the disclosure are administered to a
subject in a sequence and within a time interval such that the
antibodies of the disclosure or conjugates thereof can act together
with the other therapy(ies) to provide an increased benefit than if
they were administered otherwise. For example, each therapy may be
administered to a subject at the same time or sequentially in any
order at different points in time; however, if not administered at
the same time, they should be administered sufficiently close in
time so as to provide the desired therapeutic or prophylactic
effect. Each therapy can be administered to a subject separately,
in any appropriate form and by any suitable route. In various
embodiments, the therapies (e.g., prophylactic or therapeutic
agents) are administered to a subject less than 15 minutes, less
than 30 minutes, less than 1 hour apart, at about 1 hour apart, at
about 1 hour to about 2 hours apart, at about 2 hours to about 3
hours apart, at about 3 hours to about 4 hours apart, at about 4
hours to about 5 hours apart, at about 5 hours to about 6 hours
apart, at about 6 hours to about 7 hours apart, at about 7 hours to
about 8 hours apart, at about 8 hours to about 9 hours apart, at
about 9 hours to about 10 hours apart, at about 10 hours to about
11 hours apart, at about 11 hours to about 12 hours apart, 24 hours
apart, 48 hours apart, 72 hours apart, or 1 week apart. In other
embodiments, two or more therapies (e.g., prophylactic or
therapeutic agents) are administered to a within the same patient
visit.
[0905] The prophylactic or therapeutic agents of the combination
therapies can be administered to a subject in the same
pharmaceutical composition. Alternatively, the prophylactic or
therapeutic agents of the combination therapies can be administered
concurrently to a subject in separate pharmaceutical compositions.
The prophylactic or therapeutic agents may be administered to a
subject by the same or different routes of administration.
Kits
[0906] The invention also provides kits comprising any or all of
the antibodies described herein. Kits of the invention include one
or more containers comprising a TL1A antibody described herein and
instructions for use in accordance with any of the methods of the
invention described herein. Generally, these instructions comprise
a description of administration of the antibody for the above
described therapeutic treatments. In some embodiments, kits are
provided for producing a single-dose administration unit. In
certain embodiments, the kit can contain both a first container
having a dried protein and a second container having an aqueous
formulation. In certain embodiments, kits containing an applicator,
e.g., single and multi-chambered pre-filled syringes (e.g., liquid
syringes and lyosyringes), are included.
[0907] The instructions relating to the use of a TL1A antibody
generally include information as to dosage, dosing schedule, and
route of administration for the intended treatment. The containers
may be unit doses, bulk packages (e.g., multi-dose packages) or
sub-unit doses. Instructions supplied in the kits of the invention
are typically written instructions on a label or package insert
(e.g., a paper sheet included in the kit), but machine-readable
instructions (e.g., instructions carried on a magnetic or optical
storage disk) are also acceptable.
[0908] The kits of this invention are in suitable packaging.
Suitable packaging includes, but is not limited to, vials, bottles,
jars, flexible packaging (e.g., sealed Mylar or plastic bags), and
the like. Also contemplated are packages for use in combination
with a specific device, such as an inhaler, nasal administration
device (e.g., an atomizer) or an infusion device such as a
minipump. A kit may have a sterile access port (for example the
container may be an intravenous solution bag or a vial having a
stopper pierceable by a hypodermic injection needle). The container
may also have a sterile access port (for example the container may
be an intravenous solution bag or a vial having a stopper
pierceable by a hypodermic injection needle). At least one active
agent in the composition is a TL1A antibody or antigen-binding
fragment thereof of the invention. The container may further
comprise a second pharmaceutically active agent.
[0909] Kits may optionally provide additional components such as
buffers and interpretive information. Normally, the kit comprises a
container and a label or package insert(s) on or associated with
the container.
[0910] The invention also provides diagonistic kits comprising any
or all of the antibodies described herein. The diagonistic kits are
useful for, for example, detecting the presence of TL1A in a
sample. In some embodiments, a diagnostic kit can be used to
identify an individual with a latent disease, disorder or condition
that may put them at risk of developing TL1A-mediated disease,
disorder or condition. In some embodiments, a diagnostic kit can be
used to detect the presence and/or level of TL1A in an individual
suspected of having a TL1A mediated disease.
[0911] Diagnostic kits of the invention include one or more
containers comprising a TL1A antibody described herein and
instructions for use in accordance with any of the methods of the

Exemplary Embodiments
[0916] The invention is further described in detail by reference to
the following experimental examples. These examples are provided
for purposes of illustration only, and are not intended to be

which become evident as a result of the teaching provided

Examples
Example 1: Generation of Anti-TL1A Antibodies
[0917] Recombinant soluble human and mouse TL1A protein were
transiently expressed in HEK293 cells. TL1A protein was purified by
HitrapNTA, Hitrap Q and Sephacryl-200 (all purchased from GE
healthcare). The resulting purified protein solution was
concentrated and stored below -80.degree. C. The purity was
confirmed by SDS-PAGE and analytical SEC.
[0918] Recombinant soluble human and mouse TL1A protein were used
to immunize Medarex KM and Hco mice. Some mice received alternating
human and mouse TL1A, while others received only human TL1A. In
some cases, the mice were administered 3.times.25 .mu.g of
recombinant human TL1A plus 1.times.25 .mu.g of recombinant mouse
TL1A in Ribi adjuvant weekly, intraperitoneally and subcutaneously.
Hybridomas produced by E-fusion protocol were made from mice that
showed reactivity to TL1A by serum titer analysis. The subsequent
hybridomas were screened for production of antibodies that bound
TL1A but not TNF alpha. Those hybridomas that showed specific
binding to TL1A were further screened for neutralizing
antibodies.
Example 2: Epitope Binning of Anti-TL1A Antibodies by SPR
[0919] A pairwise binding strategy was employed to characterize the
anti-TL1A antibodies by epitope binning using surface plasmon
resonance. One antibody was directly immobilized via amine coupling
onto a carboxymethylated dextran sensor chip surface (CM5) using a
Biacore 2000 or 3000 instrument. Then, recombinant soluble human
TL1A or murine TL1A diluted to 10 nM in 8.1 mM Na.sub.2HPO.sub.4,
1.47 mM KH.sub.2PO.sub.4, pH 7.2, 237 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, 3.4 mM
EDTA and 0.01% tween 20 (PBS-NET) was injected for about 1 minutes
at a flow rate of 10 .mu.l/minute to achieve binding levels on the
immobilized antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof of at
least 100 response units (RU). Next, the same antibody that was
immobilized on the chip was injected at 30 nM for 5 minutes in
order to saturate all of the potential binding sites on the
trimeric TL1A. A repeat injection of antibody was performed to
confirm this saturation. Finally, a second antibody in PBS-NET or
PBS-NET alone as a control was injected at 30 nM for 5 minutes. If
the second antibody bound to the TL1A saturated with the first
antibody, this indicated that the second antibody bound a
non-competiting epitope on TL1A as compared to the first antibody.
If the second antibody could not bind to the saturated TL1A, this
indicated that the two antibodies shared the same or competiting
epitope on TL1A. This strategy was repeated for the top
neutralizing antibodies. At the end of each cycle, the immobilized
antibody surface was regenerated either by a 30-second pulse of 3M
MgCl.sub.2 or by 0.1% TFA followed by two consecutive 15-second
pulses of PBS-NET. All injections were performed at 25.degree. C.
at a collection rate of 10 Hz. All sensorgrams were double
referenced by using both a control surface and buffer
injections.
[0920] Epitope binning of the initial 15 neutralizing antibodies
against human TL1A revealed at least two distinct epitopes (FIG.
2). Within the 2.sup.nd epitope bin, there appeared to be an
overlapping epitope. Antibody 25A4 bound a non-competing epitope to
7D4 and 22F9, while it was shown have a competing epitope to 1D1.
Subsequently, antibodies were compared against 1D1, 7D4 and 25A4 to
determine its location within this second epitope bin (FIG. 3).
Additionally, within the first epitope bin, antibodies 14G1, 4C1
and 10G3 each were compared against immobilized 16F9 to reconfirm
their binning for binding to human TL1A. Each of these antibodies
binds a competing epitope with 16F9, as do 26B11 and 9B3. Antibody
1D1 was used as a control for binding to 16F9 since these two
antibodies bind human TL1A at non-competing epitopes.
[0921] Epitope binning against murine TL1A was conducted for eight
of the anti-TL1A antibodies (which showed the ability to neutralize
murine TL1A in the cell-based caspase assay) as well as a
commercially available anti-TL1A polyclonal antibody AT127 (Enzo
Life Sciences, Farmingdale, N.Y.). All of the anti-TL1A antibodies,
other than AT127, bound to murine TL1A at competiting epitopes.
AT127 appeared to bind murine TL1A at a separate, nonoverlapping
epitope (FIG. 4).
Example 3: Characterization of TL1A Binding Kinetics of
Neutralizing Antibodies
[0922] To characterize the binding kinetics of the anti-TL1A
antibodies to TL1A by surface plasmon resonance, each anti-TL1A
antibody was captured via directly immobilized anti-human IgG (GE
Healthcare) onto a carboxymethylated dextran sensor chip surface
(CM5) using a Biacore T100 or T200 instrument. Anti-human IgG was
immobilized through amine coupling to densities of approximately
4,000-13,000 response units (RU). Each anti-TL1A antibody was
diluted to 0.075-0.15 .mu.g/ml in 8.1 mM Na.sub.2HPO.sub.4, 1.47 mM
KH.sub.2PO.sub.4, pH 7.2, 237 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, 3.4 mM EDTA and
0.01% tween 20 (PBS-NET) and injected onto the anti-hIgG surface
for about 1-2 minutes at a flow rate of 5 .mu.l/minute to achieve
low captured levels as low as 30 RU. After capture, the flow rate
was increased to 100 .mu.l/minute and various concentrations of
recombinant soluble human TL1A, cynomologous monkey TL1A, or murine
TL1A ranging from 0.195 nM to 100 nM in PBS-NET were injected for a
2-3 minute association and allowed to dissociate for up to 60
minutes. At the end of each cycle, the entire anti-human IgG (hIgG)
surface was regenerated by a 30-second pulse of 3M MgCl.sub.2
followed by two consecutive 15-second pulses of PBS-NET. All
injections were performed at 25.degree. C. at a collection rate of
10 Hz. All sensorgrams were double referenced by using both a
control surface and buffer injections. Rate constants were
determined by fitting the data to a 1:1 model in Biacore T100, T200
evaluation software v1.0, or BIAevaluation software v4.1.1 and the
equation K.sub.D=k.sub.d/k.sub.a.
[0923] Initially, the binding of human and murine TL1A to select
anti-TL1A antibodies, was measured in real time on a Biacore T100
instrument. All of the antibodies bound to human TL1A or murine
TL1A with similar equilibrium dissociation constants (K.sub.D). The
determined K.sub.Ds also were comparable to those previously
generated cell-based assay IC50s (data not shown).
[0924] For subsequent evaluation of TL1A binding in real time,
antibodies 1D1, 26B11 and 7D4, which are representative of
antibodies that bind to different epitopes of TL1A, were expressed
as follows. Transient expression of recombinant anti-TL1A
antibodies were assessed by co-transfection of heavy and light
chain V-regions cloned into mammalian expression vectors. For
example, to each 100 mm tissue culture dish (Corning 430176); 40
.mu.l of TransiT (Mirus MIR2306) was added to 2 mls of room
temperature Optimem (Invitrogen-Gibco 11058-021)+glutamine 2 mM
final concentration. This mixture of Optimem and Trans-IT was
vortexed and incubated at room temperature for 15 minutes. Maxiprep
DNA was added (8 .mu.g of heavy chain and 8 .mu.g of light chain)
to the mixture and incubated at room temperature for 15 minutes.
This solution was then added to the p100 containing .about.-8 ml of
growth media (DMEM+HI FBS+Penn+Strep+Glutamine). After 24 hours at
37.degree. C., 10% CO.sub.2, the cells were rinsed with R1CD1
(serum free growth media), then 10 ml of R1CD1+PSG was added to
each p100. Conditioned medium was harvested after 48 hours at
37.degree. C., 10% CO.sub.2, spun down to pellet cells and
supernatant removed to a new tube. This was adjusted accordingly to
accommodate more cells for larger expression runs.
[0925] Conditioned medium from transient transfection was
quantitated by total human IgG-Fc-specific ELISA. Briefly, a flat
bottom ELISA plate (Costar 3590) was coated overnight at room
temperature with 100 .mu.l each well of 1 .mu.g/ml goat anti-human
IgG in PBS (Pierce 31125). Plates were blocked with 100 .mu.l/well
of a 0.02% Casein Solution in PBS for a minimum of 3 hours or up to
24 hours at room temperature. If the plates were not used
immediately they were stored for up to one month at 4.degree. C. in
storage buffer, 0.02% NaN.sub.3 in PBS. Standard and samples were
run in serial dilution series in assay buffer (0.5% bovine serum
albumin+0.02% Tween-20 in PBS) with 100 .mu.l added to the washed
wells of the ELISA plate and incubated for 3 to 24 hours at room
temperature. Goat anti-human IgG (Pierce 31413) was diluted 1:5000
in assay buffer and 100 .mu.l was added to well after the plate was
washed and allowed to incubate for 15 minutes at room temperature.
The plate was washed and developed in 100p1 per well BioFX TMB
(TMBW-0100-01) the reaction was stopped in 100 .mu.l per well 0.18
N H.sub.2SO.sub.4 and the plate was read at 450 nm on Molecular
Devices vMax plate reader. The unknowns were calculated from the
linear range of the curve from the dilution series of the standard.
Antibody 26B11 was used as quantitated conditioned medium in this
experiment while 1D1, and 7D4 were protein A purified.
[0926] The anti-TL1A antibodies were captured onto immobilized
anti-human Fc on a CM5 sensor chip on a Biacore T100 instrument.
Human TL1A (0.4-100 nM) or cynomolgus monkey TL1A (8-200 nM) were
injected over captured anti-TL1A antibodies. Rate constants shown
in the table were determined by fitting to a 1:1 Langmuir binding
model in BiaEvaluation v4.1.1 (fit lines shown in red). Data shown
are the average and standard deviation of at least 3 independent
surfaces between 2 experiments. No nonspecific binding of
recombinant solube human or cynomolgus TL1A to the immobilized
anti-human Fc was observed.
[0927] Capture levels were kept intentionally low to allow
conditions of 1:1 binding, avoid the impact of avidity, and to
minimize rebinding during dissociation. At capture levels above 30
RU, slower off-rates had been observed to the antibodies which were
likely due to these complications (data not shown).
[0928] For either human or cynomolgus TL1A, binding to anti-TL1A
antibodies was dependent on the concentration of TL1A tested. At
the highest cytokine concentrations, the dissociation phase was
sometimes extended to 60 minutes to achieve at least a 5% decrease
in binding signal. This is the minimum decrease recommended for
accurately measuring relatively slow antigen dissociation rates
(Katsamba, et al. Kinetic analysis of a high affinity
antibody/antigen interaction performed by multiple Biacore users.
Analytical Biochemistry 2006 May 15; 352(2):208-21). When this
condition was met, the association and dissociation rate constants
between each species of TL1A and each antibody were calculated from
the binding sensorgrams using a 1:1 Langmuir binding model. The Kd
values for antibodies 1D1, 7D4, and 26B11 binding to human and cyno
TL1A are summarized in Table 4.

Example 4: Anti-TL1A Antibody Sequences
[0929] Top neutralizing antibodies representing the various epitope
bins were selected for sequencing. Sequences were obtained for
anti-TL1A antibodies 1D1, 7D4, 26B11, 15C11, 15A9, 9B3 and 22F9 as
follows. Anti-TL1A hybridomas of interest were selected to clone
the variable domains. RNAs from the hybridomas were extracted and
the variable region DNA sequences from the expressed antibodies
were obtained via RT-PCR cloning. Generally, one to five million of
the subcloned hybridoma cells were homogenized for total RNA
isolation, run through QIAShredder with QIAGEN RNAeasy Mini kit, or
cell numbers adjusted to use other Qiagen kit such as RNAeasy micro
kit. First strand cDNA was then produced using superscript II or
superscript III reverse transcriptase (Invitrogen). Double stranded
cDNAs for variable regions of anti-TL1A IgGs were subsequently
generated and amplified by PCR using primers specific for constant
regions and 5' known cap, such as SMART IIa oligo. The resulting
RT-PCR products were cloned into TOPO-Blunt cloning vector, zero
blunt, topo TA or similar vector (Invitrogen) and sequenced by
conventional methods.
[0930] Sequences are listed in the Sequence Listing Table (Table
40) and shown in FIG. 1. For antibodies 9B3 and 26B11, multiple
heavy chains were cloned from the hybridoma and are listed in the
Sequence Listing Table (Table 40) and FIG. 1. For 26B11,
experiments were performed with constructs having the VH2 variable
heavy chain domain (SEQ ID NO:74).
[0931] FIG. 1I depicts an alignment of the sequences of antibodies
1D1, 7D4, and 26B11, which are representative of the 3 epitope bins
discuss above. FIG. 1J depicts an alignment of the VH and VL
sequences from antibodies 7D4 and 22F9, which bind to competing
TL1A epitopes. These antibodies have the same VL but different VH
regions. Table 5 provides a summary of the amino acid differences
between the VH domains of antibodies 7D4 and 22F9 FIG. 1K depicts
an alignment of the sequences between antibodies 26B11 and 9B3,
which bind to competing TL1A epitopes. These antibodies have
different VL regions, but each produce multiple, identical VH
regions (VH1, VH2). Antibody 26B11 also produces a third VH domain,
named MDX-VH. Table 6 provides a summary of the amino acid
differences between antibodies 26B11 and 9B3. FIG. 1L depicts an
alignment of the sequences of antibody 1D1 and antibodies 15A9 and
15C11, which compete for binding to TL1A. These antibodies have the
same VL, but each have different VH regions. Table 12 provides a
summary of the amino acid differences between antibodies 1D1, 15A9,
and 15C11 and the 1D1 affinity matured variants. FIG. 1M is a chart
depicting the percentage sequence identity between various
anti-TL1A antibodies.

Example 5: Affinity Maturation of Anti-TL1A Antibody 1D1 Via Phage
Display Library
a) Phage Library Design
[0932] Three libraries were planned, each of which contained
randomization in VHCDR1, VHCDR2 or VHCDR3 regions of 1D1 (also
referred to herein as "Parental 1D1" or wild type 1D1 or WT 1D1).
X-ray crystallography studies of 1D1 IgG bound to human TL1A trimer
(see Example 6) indicated that the VL was not heavily involved in
the binding interaction, therefore the VL region was not
mutagenized. Two types of randomization were used, binary
substitution with oligonucleotides supplied by Eurofins, and
spiking mutagenesis with oligonucleotides supplied by IDT
(Integrated DNA Technologies). In the binary substitution method,
the wild-type amino acid was replaced with a codon which
incorporates either the original wild-type amino acid or a closely
related homolog. This mutagenesis allows subtle changes to be
introduced. Spiking mutagenesis involves replacing the wild type
amino acid with all other amino acids at a rate of 50%.
[0933] Several highly conserved amino acids were maintained
throughout the library build--for example Y31, 151 and D101 were
not mutated due to their conservation in human antibodies. The
C-terminal end of the VHCDR2 loop was not mutated; keeping in mind
previously generated data which pointed to the importance of these
residues in binding function. Some possibly pivotal positions were
only mutated by binary substitution. Others were subject to two
methods of randomization; these positions were thought to have more
potential to affect binding affinity.
[0934] The VHCDR3 was mutated most heavily, as traditionally this
loop has the largest role in affinity determination. The entire
loop (except D101) was mutated by both binary substitution and
spiking mutagenesis. Two spiking mutagenesis oligos were used for
the VHCDR3 due to its length.
b) Phage Library Build
[0935] Construction of the mutant libraries was performed. Primary
and secondary (SOE) PCRs involved the use of Platinum.RTM. Taq DNA
Polymerase High Fidelity (Invitrogen), according to the
manufacturer's recommendations. SOE-PCR products were restriction
digested, purified, and cloned into the pWRIL-1 vector in E. coli
TG1. Total library sizes were calculated by plating serial
dilutions of transformations onto 2YT agar/100 .mu.g per millilitre
of carbenicillin/2% (v/v) glucose (2YT-CG). Total cell populations
from each electroporation were plated onto 22-cm bioassay dishes
(Genetix) containing 2YT agar/100 .mu.g per milliliter of
carbenicillin/2% (v/v) glucose (2YT-CG), incubated overnight at
30.degree. C., and finally harvested by scraping and resuspension
in 2YT broth/20% (v/v) glycerol. Library aliquots were then frozen
at -80.degree. C.
c) Phage Library Rescue and Selections
[0936] Phage libraries were rescued and selections were carried out
in two different styles, the first being a classical solution-phase
method. In these selections the libraries were selected over three
rounds, with a starting concentration of 3 nM biotinylated-hTL1A,
ending with 50 pM in round three. Washes were increased from 12 in
round one to 18 in round three. Also in round three, another branch
containing an `off-rate competition` step was included, where 50 nM
excess unlabelled antigen was added for 30 min.
[0937] The second style of selection involved the same biotinylated
antigen and beads as the first. The purpose of these selections is
to drive forcefully towards high affinity in the first round,
followed by a gentle recovery in the second round. Four branches of
selection were completed, two of which contained 1 nM biotinylated
hTL1A in round one, the remaining branches contained 100 pM
biotinylated antigen in round one. The first round also contained
an overnight `off-rate competition` step, where 100 nM unlabelled
antigen was added for 18 h. Stringent washing was also used in
round one, with 13 washes being applied. The second round of
selection involved four branches, two of which contained 1 nM
biotinylated-recombinant soluble human TL1A, the remaining two
contained 1 nM biotinylated-recombinant soluble murine TL1A. Ten
washes were applied in round two.
d) Primary Screening--scFv Expression and Purification
[0938] For high-throughput screening, E. coli clones were plated on
2YT-CG agar in 22-cm bioassay trays (Genetix), picked into standard
sterile 96-well plates containing 2YT-CG broth using a QPix II
colony picker (Genetix), and grown in a Multitron multiplate
incubator (Infors AG) at 600 rpm, 37.degree. C., and 80% humidity
overnight. Following growth, glycerol was added to a final
concentration of 30% (v/v) and plates were stored at -80.degree. C.
or used to immediately inoculate 96-well deep-well plates
containing 900 .mu.l of 2YT-CG broth. These were grown at
37.degree. C., 80% humidity, and 600 rpm for 5-6 h; expression was
induced by addition of IPTG to a final concentration of 0.5 mM and
incubation at 28.degree. C. overnight. Cells were pelleted by
centrifugation at 1260 g and resuspended in 150 .mu.l of ice-cold
periplasmic buffer [50 mM Tris-HCl, 1 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic
acid, and 20% sucrose (w/v), pH 8]. Osmotic shock was induced by
addition of 150 .mu.l/well of a 1:5 dilution of periplasmic buffer,
and samples were placed on ice for 30 min. This was followed by
centrifugation at 3220 g for 10 min, and the supernatant,
consisting of the periplasmic fraction containing expressed scFv's,
was recovered. High-throughput screening by ELISA or HTRF assay was
carried out using crude periplasmic extracts in single-point
analyses.
[0939] Small-scale, single-step scFv purifications were carried out
for more detailed HTRF titration and caspase activity assay
analysis. E. coli clones of interest were selected on the basis of
performance in the binding ELISA and HTRF screening assay, and
inoculated for small-scale protein expression and purification.
e) Binding ELISA
[0940] Maxisorp plates (Nunc) were coated with 1 .mu.g/ml of human
or murine TL1A in PBS overnight at 4.degree. C. Wells were washed
three times with 250 .mu.l of PBS containing 0.02% (v/v) Tween-20,
using a Zoomwasher liquid handling robot (Titertek), and blocked in
100 .mu.l of PBS/3% (w/v) dried milk protein with 1% bovine serum
albumin for 1 h. Crude periplasmic extracts (50%, v/v) were blocked
in PBS/6% (w/v) dried milk protein with 2% bovine serum albumin for
1 h. The blocked periplasmic extracts (50%, v/v) were then
incubated with an HRP-conjugated anti-c-myc antibody (Roche) at a
final concentration of 1:2500 for 30 min prior to addition to the
coated ELISA plate, which was incubated for a further 2 h.
Following four washing cycles on the Zoomwasher, the reaction was
developed using UltraTMB (Pierce) and stopped by a 1:1 addition of
0.18 M phosphoric acid. The plate was read in an EnVision
Multiplate Reader at 450 nm. All data were plotted using Decision
Site 8 (Spotfire) and Prism 5 (GraphPad) software.
f) High-Throughput Competition HTRF Assay
[0941] A high-throughput competition HTRF assay was established in
order to allow identification of affinity improved clones. The
parental 1D1 antibody was labeled with europium cryptate using a
cryptate labeling kit (CisBio) according to the manufacturer's
instructions. The final reaction mix contained 6 nM biotinylated
recombinant soluble human or murine TL1A, 1:1600 dilution of
SA-XL665 (CisBio), 1:1000 dilution of the europium cryptate-labeled
parental 1D1, and 10% (v/v) periplasmic extract containing scFv's
of interest, prepared as described above, in a total reaction
volume of 20 .mu.l in HTRF Detection Buffer (Cisbio). Reagents were
added sequentially on a MiniTrak Liquid Handling Platform
(Perkin-Elmer) into 384-well low-volume black plates (Nunc).
Reactions were allowed to proceed for 3 hours at room temperature,
and plates were subsequently read on the EnVision Multilabel Plate
Reader (Perkin-Elmer) with excitation at 340 nm and two emission
readings at 615 nm (measuring input donor fluorescence from
1D1-europium cryptate) and 665 nm (measuring output acceptor
fluorescence from SAXL665). All readings were expressed as the
percentage of change in fluorescence, % .DELTA.F, as described
previously (Finlay et al., J. Mol Biol 388(3):541-58 (2009)). All
data were plotted using Decision Site 8 (Spotfire) and Prism 5
(GraphPad) software.
g) Reformatting to IgG, and Expression and Purification
[0942] The selected clones were inoculated from their frozen stock
and grown overnight at 250 rpm, 37.degree. C. in single wells
containing 150 .mu.L 2YT media with 100 .mu.g/mL carbenicillin.
Next 0.5 .mu.L of each of the overnight cultures were added to the
PCR mixture. The forward primer read 5'
CAACAGCTACAGGCGCGCACTCCCAGGTTCAGCTGGTG 3' (SEQ ID NO: 393) and the
reverse primer 5' GACCGATGGGCCCTTGGTCGACGCTGAGGAGACGGTGAC 3' (SEQ
ID NO: 394). All PCR reactions were then pooled and resolved on a
2% agarose gel. The approximately 400 bp band was excised and
purified using a QIAquick gel extraction kit (Qiagen). The purified
PCR products were then subject to a BssHII digest at 50.degree. C.
for 3 h, followed by deactivation at 80.degree. C. for 20 min.
Next, 0.6 .mu.L of bovine serum albumin (100.times.) and 3 .mu.L of
SalI enzyme was added to the reaction and allowed to digest at
50.degree. C. for a further 3 hours, followed by deactivation at
65.degree. C. for 20 min. The bulk digestion was resolved on a 2%
agarose gel, gel purified and then ligated into an expression
vector engineered to include an effector function null mutation
(also referred to as "triple mutant" or "3mut") in the Fc.
[0943] IgGs were transiently expressed in 30 ml HEK293 cells
(Invitrogen) after standard transfection. Conditioned medium was
harvested after 5 days at 37.degree. C., 7% CO.sub.2 and cells were
removed by centrifugation. The resulting supernatant was filtered
and purification was carried out using ProPlus 40 ul Resin tips
with the MEA robot (both Phynexus Inc). Briefly, after tip
equilibration in wash buffer (Phynexus), 1 ml of conditioned media
was drawn through each tip at a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min, 6 times,
to enable capture of the IgG by the ProA/G mixture resin, before
being discarded. This step was repeated with all 30 ml of media,
overnight. Following wash steps with two buffers (Phynexus Inc) the
captured protein was eluted with 0.1 M glycine pH 2, and
neutralised with 1 M Tris pH9. Purified proteins were buffer
exchanged into PBS, concentration was determined by MicroBCA
(Thermo), and purity by reducing SDS-PAGE.
h) Caspase Activity Assay
[0944] The purified scFvs identified after initial screening, and
later the reformatted IgGs, were tested for their ability to
neutralize TL1A-induced caspase activity in TF-1 cells (a human
erythroleukaemia cell line), to ensure functionality had been
maintained. On day one, TF-1 cells were seeded to a density of
3.times.10.sup.5 cells/ml and incubated at 37.degree. C., 5%
CO.sub.2. On day two, the stimuli mixture of cycloheximide (20
ug/ml) and hTL1A (125 ng/ml) was incubated with a 3-fold dilution
series of scFv, starting at 40 nM, for 30 min at 37.degree. C. TF-1
cells (50 000 cells/well) were added to the stimuli-scFv mix. After
6 h incubation at 37.degree. C., 100 .mu.l/well Caspase-Glo 3/7
reagent (Promega) was added. The plate was incubated at room
temperature for 15 min, after which it was read on the Envision
Plate Reader (Perkin-Elmer) at 700 nm. Analysis was performed in
duplicate, and data was plotted using Prism 5 (GraphPad)
software.
i) Biacore Analysis of IgGs
[0945] Biacore analysis was performed using T-200 biosensor, series
S CM5 chips and approximately 4000 RU (response units) of an
anti-human IgG (GE Healthcare), immobilized in 10 mM sodium acetate
immobilization buffer at pH 5.0. Assay conditions were established
to minimize the influence of mass transfer, avidity, and rebinding
events, as described below. A blank immobilization was carried out
on a separate flow cell for reference subtraction. The purified
IgGs were diluted in running buffer (PBS, 300 mM sodium chloride,
3.2 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, 0.01% Tween20) and low
levels (<30 RU) captured using a flow rate of 100 ul/min for 2
min, to reduce possible rebinding by the trimeric TL1A. TL1A was
injected at a range of concentrations (0.4-33 nM) in running
buffer, at a flow rate of 100 ul/min for 30 s, followed by two 30
sec regeneration steps with 3M magnesium chloride and running
buffer. Reference-subtracted sensorgrams for each concentration
were analyzed using Biacore T-200 evaluation software (v1.0).
k) Library QC Sequencing
[0946] Single colonies were sent for QC sequence analysis from each
of the constructed 1 D1 mutant scFv libraries (VHCDR1, VHCDR2,
VHCDR3A and VHCDR3B). Analysis of the sequence results showed
incorporation of all desired mutations at all of the positions
targeted in the mutagenesis strategy.
l) Identification and Analysis of Affinity-Matured Variants
[0947] Clones were picked randomly from each branch of selection,
and initially screened in a crude, single-point periprep format.
The binding ELISA identified clones expressing TL1A-binding scFv
enriched by the phage display selection process, with increasing
numbers of binders observed from round one through to round three
of both selection approaches. The HTRF assay measures the decrease
in fluorescence observed upon binding of europium cryptate-labeled
parental 1D1 IgG to recombinant soluble human/murine TL1A, in the
presence of competing scFv antibodies. This allows the
identification of clones that compete strongly for binding to the
original epitope of 1D1, which has been shown to mediate biological
potency in vivo. Similarly, an increase was observed in the number
of competing clones retrieved after round 3 of selection. As the
periprep concentration cannot be determined, in order to determine
the effect of expression on the assay signal, those with % .DELTA.F
similar to or better than the parental 1D1 periprep, were taken
forward for further analysis. From the classical selection, 800
clones were screened, and 270 were selected for confirmatory
screening and sequence analysis, while from the second selection
method, an additional 800 clones were screened, and 120 were taken
forward.
m) Sequence Analysis
[0948] Sequence analysis of clones which were positive in the
primary screen led to identification of 40 unique sequences from
the classical selections, and an additional 13 unique sequences
from the second selection, following removal of any clones with
glycosylation motifs (NXS, NXT). Mutations were identified in all 3
VH CDRs. Heavy chain variable domain (VH) sequences for some of
these variants are provided in the Sequence Listing Table (Table
40) and FIG. 1.
[0949] All clones were subjected to further analysis as purified
scFvs, in both the HTRF competition assay and caspase activity
assay, indicating all clones could compete with the parental 1D1
for binding to TL1A and inhibit caspase activity in a
concentration-dependent manner (data not shown). The scFvs were
subsequently reformatted to IgG for further analysis, where
similarly all hits showed the ability to compete with parental 1D1
in the HTRF assay and inhibit caspase activity. However, neither
assay could be used to rank clones due to a probable stacking
effect. As a final concentration of 2 nM TL1A was used in the
caspase assay, it is believed the clones had passed the limit of
detection of the assay and further optimization would be required
in order to accurately rank the potency of each clone.
[0950] Biacore analysis of the IgGs showed a number of hits with a
KD<2 nM, and 15 hits had a KD<1 nM (Table 7) The greatest
affinity improvements, with gains of 2 to 6-fold in KD, were
observed in clones with mutations in the VHCDR3 and VHCDR2, with
all VHCDR3 variants including the Asn to His mutation. VHCDR3
variants all included a Serine (S) to Alanine (A) mutation at
position 93. Sequences of the heavy chain variable domain (VH) of
these variants are provided in Table 8, the Sequence Listing Table
(Table 40), and FIG. 1. These variants have the same light chain as
the parental 1D1 antibody.

[0951] Clones were also tested for affinity to both murine and cyno
TL1A with similar affinity gains observed (Table 9). Affinity gains
were mostly derived from improvements in off-rate. Improvements in
affinity were also observed when tested for cross-species
reactivity against murine and cyno TL1A (Table 9).

Example 6: Crystal Structure Determination of Anti-TL1A Antibody
1D1
[0952] Wild-type human TL1A forms disulfide linked multimers that
complicate purification and have, in the literature, led to lower
resolution crystal structures. For this reason C95S/C135S double
mutants were used for crystallization. The mutant TL1A was
expressed in E. coli and purified using Ni chelation chromatography
followed by ion exchange chromatography and a final size exclusion
step.
[0953] Fab fragments from parental 1D1 IgG were prepared by
digestion with papain. Initial attempts to grow crystals of the
complex of TL1A with the 1D1 Fab were unsuccessful. Subsequently,
1D1 scFv-Fc was expressed in HEK cells. The scFv-Fc was purified
from conditioned media by protein A capture and the scFv cleaved
from the Fc using papain. The isolated scFv was partially cleaved
at the linker between the VH and VL domains but the clipped
material was still able to bind to TL1A. The complex of 1D1 scFv
with TL1A formed cubic crystals in a solution of potassium
thiocyanate and succinic acid.
[0954] Data was collected to 2.5 .ANG. at beamline 17-ID at the
Advanced Photon Source. The structure was solved by molecular
replacement using the published structure of TL1A (PDB code 2RJL)
and an ensemble of variable domain structures. After rebuilding and
refinement, the final Rfree value is 0.237 with Rwork of 0.199. The
crystal structure has a single copy of the 1D1 scFv bound to a
single TL1A monomer in the asymmetric unit. The trimer is generated
by crystallographic symmetry from the threefold axis connecting
opposite corners of the unit cell in the cubic space group P432
(FIG. 5). The antibody interacts with adjacent faces of two
monomers binding in the same groove as seen for the decoy receptor
DCR3 in its costructure with TL1A. By analogy with the structures
of other TNF family members with their signaling receptors it is
assumed that this antibody binding mode would lead to direct
blocking of the signaling interaction with the DR3 receptor. Almost
all of the paratope is contained within the heavy chain.
Example 7: Computational Design of an Affinity Enhanced Point
Mutation
[0955] Using the crystal structure, the sequence tolerance
protocol, adapted from Smith and Kortemme 2010, publicly available
at
http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.002045-
1, was used to identify mutations that might improve the binding
affinity of 1D1 for TL1A. This protocol evaluates a very large
number of sequences relatively quickly using the Rosetta protein
design software package from the University of Washington. A
separate experiment was done for each of the heavy chain CDRs.
Residues within a defined distance of the TL1A interface were
allowed to vary.
[0956] Since the contacting residues from CDRs 2 and 3 were well
sampled in parallel phage display optimizations we focused on
results from CDR H1. In particular, it was apparent that serine 28
in 1D1 was buried in the interface but did not make any strong
hydrogen bonds (FIG. 6). The sequence tolerance protocol suggested
substituting aspartic acid (FIG. 7), asparagines, or glutamine and
also favored a tyrosine to histidine mutation at position 31. These
options were examined further by modeling the mutations using the
program SCWRL from the Fox Chase Cancer Center and using Macromodel
from Schrodinger, Inc. to minimize and calculate a change in
binding energy. These mutations (Table 10) were then made and the
resulting proteins tested for binding.
TABLE-US-00010 TABLE 10 Mutations selected for testing for
improvement in 1D1 binding Mutation Predicted ddG Kd (nM) WT 1D1

glycosylation site) S28Q -10.0 6.8 Y31H -17.7 12.7
[0957] The modification of S28D was selected for combination with
the best sequences from phage display optimization of CDRs H2 and
H3 yielding variants with Kd<0.1 nM. These variants and their VH
CDR sequences are listed in Table 11 (clones 1D1 1.1-1.14). To
further try to improve the affinity, the beneficial mutations found
in the phage display screen across CDRH2 and CDRH3 were combined to
look for synergy, (clones 1D1 1.15-1.26). After all of these clones
were analyzed, mutation S28D was added into the best CDRH2 and
CDRH3 combinations, VH1.27-VH1.34. The heavy chain variable domain
(VH) sequences for each of these variants is listed in Table 40 and
in FIG. 1. These variants have the same light chain as parental
antibody 1D1.
[0958] Table 12 provides a summary of the various amino acid
substitutions in the VH regions of antibody 1D1 as compared to the
affinity matured variants from Table 8 and Table 11, as well as
antibodies 15C11 and 15A9 which compete for binding to the same
TL1A epitope as antibody 1D1 (see FIG. 1L).

Example 8: Determining TL1A Binding by 1D1 and Top Affinity
Optimized Clones Via Biacore/Kinexa
[0959] To characterize the binding kinetics of various 1D1 variant
anti-TL1A antibodies to soluble recombinant TL1A by surface plasmon
resonance, each anti-TL1A antibody was expressed as an IgG1
antibody. Stable pool expression of antibodies recognizing TL1A
(1D1 parental, 7D4 and 26B11) were established using a
lipofectamine transfection protocol. CHO cells were grown to 80%
confluence; 25 ugs of DNA for both heavy and light chains were
added. Spent media was exchanged with R1+10% FBS repeated on a
three/four day schedule while the pools were being established. The
Pools were subsequently adapted to serum-free suspension. This
material was purified by protein A and used as controls in the
program.
[0960] The new clone variants for 1D1 were tested by small scale
expression in 50 mL HEK 293 transient transfections. Small scale
purification on Protein A resin using AKTA express system gave
protein that could be run in early Biacore and cell based assays
for screening. As clones were selected for further
characterization, larger scale transient expression and stable cell
line development was carried out.
[0961] The antibodies were captured via directly immobilized
anti-human IgG (GE Healthcare) onto a carboxymethylated dextran
sensor chip surface (CM5) using a Biacore T100 or T200 instrument.
Anti-human IgG was immobilized through amine coupling to densities
of approximately 4,000-13,000 response units (RU). The antibodies
were diluted to 0.075-0.15 .mu.g/ml in 8.1 mM Na.sub.2HPO.sub.4,
1.47 mM KH.sub.2PO.sub.4, pH 7.2, 237 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCl, 3.4 mM
EDTA and 0.01% tween 20 (PBS-NET) and injected onto the anti-hIgG
surface for about 1-2 minutes at a flow rate of 5 .mu.l/minute to
achieve low captured levels of less than 30 RU. After capture, the
flow rate was increased to 100 .mu.l/minute and various
concentrations of recombinant soluble human TL1A (SEQ ID NO:254),
recombinant soluble cynomologous monkey TL1A (SEQ ID NO:259),
recombinant soluble mouse TL1A (SEQ ID NO:260), recombinant soluble
rat TL1A (SEQ ID NO:261), or recombinant soluble rabbit TL1A (SEQ
ID NO:262), ranging from 0.195 nM to 100 nM in PBS-NET were
injected for an approximate 2-3 minute association and allowed to
dissociate for .about.3-60 minutes. At the end of each cycle, the
entire anti-hIgG surface was regenerated by a 30-second pulse of 3M
MgCl.sub.2 followed by two consecutive 15-second pulses of PBS-NET.
Alternatively, the surface was regenerated with two 30-second
pulses of an ionic solution containing 0.46M KSCN, 1.83 M MgCl2,
0.92 M urea, and 1.83 M guanidine-HCl pH7.4, followed by a single
30-second pulse with PBS-NET. All injections were performed at
25.degree. C. at a collection rate of 10 Hz. All sensorgrams were
double referenced by using both a control surface and buffer
injections. Rate constants were determined by fitting the data to a
1:1 model in Biacore T100, T200 evaluation software v1.0, or
BIAevaluation software v4.1.1 and the equation
K.sub.D=k.sub.d/k.sub.a.
[0962] The equilibrium dissociation constant (K.sub.D) of each
anti-TL1A antibody for human TL1A was measured using a kinetic
exclusion assay (KinExA) on a KinExA 3200 instrument (Sapidyne).
This assay involves pre-incubating antibody: antigen mixtures in
solution long enough to reach equilibrium before measuring the
level of unbound antibody using a solid phase component. To prepare
the solid phase, two hundred milligrams of polymethylmethacrylate
beads (PMMA, Sapidyne) were coated with recombinant human TL1A at
30 ug/ml in 1 ml of PBS pH7.4 and tumbled for two hours at room
temperature. Beads were blocked for 1 hour with PBS plus 10 mg/ml
bovine serum albumin (bovine serum albumin, Sigma) at room
temperature before being diluted up to a total of 27 ml in
[0963] PBS. For the in-solution component, each antibody was held
at a constant concentration while human, cyno or mouse TL1A were
titrated over a broad range from 240 fM-100 nM in PBS plus 1 mg/ml
bovine serum albumin. The antibody concentration was held either
near the estimated K.sub.D for the K.sub.D controlled curve or at a
concentration 10-fold or more above the estimated K.sub.D for the
antigen binding concentration (ABC)-controlled curve. For each
titration series, a buffer sample and a sample of antibody alone
were included. Each antibody: TL1A mixture was tumbled at room
temperature for at least six hours to reach equilibrium and then
each mixture was injected over the solid phase of TL1A-coated beads
in the instrument flow cell. Only free, unoccupied antibody bound
to the beads and was detected with 500 ul of 0.25 ug/ml or 1.5
ug/ml Alexa-647-goat-anti-human IgG (H+L) antibody (Jackson)
delivered to the flow cell at 0.25 ml/min. Beads were replenished
between each sample. Binding signals of detected free antibody were
converted to percentage of free, unbound antibody as measured by
the antibody only sample and plotted versus each concentration of
TL1A. For each antibody, the K.sub.D and ABC controlled curves were
fit simultaneously using n-Curve Analysis software v3.1.4 to fit
the curves to the `affinity, unknown ligand` model and measure an
equilibrium K.sub.D.
[0964] For evaluation of TL1A binding in real time, each antibody
was captured via anti-IgG onto the Biacore sensor chip surfaces at
low densities below 30 RU. Capture levels were kept intentionally
low to allow conditions of 1:1 binding, avoid the impact of
avidity, and to minimize rebinding during dissociation. At capture
levels above 30 RU, slower off-rates had been observed for 1D1
which were likely due to these complications.
[0965] For all species of TL1A, binding to 1D1 and each of the
affinity matured clones was dependent on the concentration of TL1A
tested, as expected. At the highest cytokine concentrations, the
dissociation phase was sometimes extended to 60 minutes to achieve
at least a 5% decrease in binding signal. This is the minimum
decrease recommended for accurately measuring relatively slow
antigen dissociation rates. When this condition was met, the
association and dissociation rate constants between each species of
TL1A and each antibody were calculated from the binding sensorgrams
using a 1:1 Langmuir binding model (Table 13-Table 17). For the
affinity matured antibodies that did not meet this criteria when
binding human TL1A, the off rates were too slow to measure and the
K.sub.Ds were estimated to be less than 100 pM (Table 13).

[0966] Solution-based kinetic exclusion assays (KinExA) were
carried out as an orthogonal technique to measure equilibrium
K.sub.D values. Both a K.sub.D-controlled and an ABC-controlled
curve were generated for each affinity matured antibody with TL1A.
Curves were generated as well for the parental 1D1 antibody and a
Fab generated from the 1D1 antibody to use as comparators. N-curve
analysis was performed using the "affinity, unknown ligand" model
to determine the equilibrium K.sub.D for each antibody (Table 18).
For the affinity matured antibodies with K.sub.Ds that could not be
determined by surface plasmon resonance, measured equilibrium
K.sub.Ds could distinguish these antibodies from the parental 1D1
antibody.

[0967] Due to the homotrimeric composition of TL1A and the fact
that KinExA K.sub.Ds are carried out in-solution, it is possible
that the multivalent TL1A forms lattices structures with the
bivalent antibodies. Therefore, the KinExA K.sub.D values likely
include an avidity index. The avidity index of 1D1 antibody was
determined due to the availability of the 1D1 Fab protein. The Fab
of 1D1 bound human TL1A with an equilibrium K.sub.D of 3 nM (Table
18). The Fab is monovalent for human TL1A and accordingly, the
KinExA K.sub.D agreed with the K.sub.D of 3.2.+-.0.9 nM from the
full length antibody under conditions of 1:1 binding on the Biacore
sensor chip surface. There was not enough of the Fab to measure the
K.sub.D to human TL1A by SPR. Compared to the 127 pM K.sub.D
measured by KinExA, the avidity index for 1D1 is apparently 24. The
avidity indices of the affinity matured antibodies are unknown and
are not necessarily the same of the apparent 24-fold index for the
parental 1D1 antibody.
Example 9: Crystal Structures of 7D4 Fab, 26B11 Fab, and 1D1 1.31
scFv, and DR3 with TL1A
[0968] C95S/C135S double mutant TL1A was expressed in E. coli and
purified as described in Example 6. The Fab fragment of antibody
7D4 was obtained by cleaving the full length IgG with papain and
removing the Fc using a Protein A resin. The Fab was mixed with
double mutant TL1A at a 1:1 molar ratio and the resulting complex
was purified by SEC. Crystals of the complex formed in 100 mM Tris
pH 8, 25% PEG 400.
[0969] Data was collected to 3.1 .ANG. at beamline 17-ID at the
Advanced Photon Source. The structure was solved by molecular
replacement and refined to R/Rfree of 0.187/0.238 (FIG. 8). The
crystal structure has a single copy of TL1A bound to a single 7D4
Fab fragment in the asymmetric unit in space group 1213. As for
1D1, the biological trimer is generated by crystallographic
symmetry. In contrast with 1D1, which interacts with the
receptor-binding groove between adjacent TL1A monomers, the 7D4
epitope is almost entirely contained within a single TL1A monomer.
Nevertheless, the epitope is sufficiently broad that 7D4 binding
would be expected to interfere directly with receptor binding as is
seen in the cell based neutralization assay.
[0970] For determination of the costructure of TL1A with 26B11, the
same double mutant TL1A was combined with the Fab fragment of 26B11
and the resulting complex purified by SEC. Crystals were obtained
in 16% PEG 3350, 250 mM ammonium nitrate and diffracted to 2.5
.ANG. at beamline 17-ID at the Advanced Photon Source. The
structure was refined to R/Rfree values of 0.177/0.224 (FIG. 9).
The crystallographic asymmetric unit contains 2 copies of the
complex. Surprisingly, the TL1A molecules in the crystal do not
form the biologically active trimer. The low pH of the
crystallization solution may have caused dissociation of the
trimer. The complex elutes from a gel filtration column at a time
consistent with the molecular weight of the 3:3 complex of 26B11
Fab and TL1A demonstrating that the antibody does not interfere
with trimerization. Furthermore, if the TL1A in the 26B11 complex
is superimposed on a structure of the TL1A trimer there are no
clashes observed between individual copies of the 26B11 Fab. The
7D4 and 26B11 epitopes are overlapping, although according to the
data in Example 2, these antibodies did not compete for binding to
TL1A.
[0971] For determination of the costructure of TL1A with 1D1 1.31,
an scFv version of the affinity optimized antibody was expressed as
an Fc fusion, cleaved with papain, and purified as for the parental
1D1 antibody. The purified scFv was mixed with double mutant TL1A
and the complex was purified by SEC. Crystals were obtained in 1800
mM ammonium sulfate, 8.33333% dioxane, 100 mM MES pH 6.5 and
diffracted to 3.2 .ANG. on beamline 17-ID at the Advanced Photon
Source (FIG. 10). The asymmetric unit contains a single copy of the
full trimeric complex consisting of three TL1A monomers and three
1.31 scFv molecules.
[0972] The overall binding mode of 1D1 1.31 to TL1A is the same as
that for parental 1D1. There are two sequence differences between
1D1 1.31 and 1D1 that were expected to be located within the
interface with TL1A: histidine in 1D1 1.31 vs. asparagine in 1D1 at
position H58, and aspartic acid in 1D1 1.31 vs. serine at position
H28 (see FIG. 11). As expected, the histidine makes essentially the
same interaction as the original asparagines with glutamic acid 55
of TL1A, but this interaction is stronger because the proximity of
the glutamic acid would likely raise the pKa of the histidine to
the point where it would carry a positive charge at physiological
pH. The aspartic acid at position 28 shows the expected improved
hydrogen bonding coordination and charge complimentarily relative
to the parental serine (see FIG. 12). In addition, the crystal
structure shows an altered conformation in the adjacent TL1A loop
118-121 relative to the conformation bound to 1D1. Tyrosine 121 of
TL1A is in a different rotamer and backbone trajectory is altered.
The Y121 side chain forms new hydrophobic interactions with 1D1
1.31 that may contribute to the increased affinity of this
antibody. In the structure with 1D1, a water molecule occupies the
position held by the Y121 side chain in the structure with 1D1
1.31. These differences are observed in all three copies of the
complex but it cannot be ruled out that it is an effect of the
different crystallization conditions rather than the sequence
differences between 1D1 and 1D1 1.31.
[0973] Similarly, crystals of the TL1A:DR3 complex were obtained.
The interaction between residues of TL1A and DR3, as well as the
interaction between TL1A and antibodies 1D1, 1D1 1.31 (1.31), 7D4
and 26B11 are summarized in Table 42. As shown in Table 42, a

numbering of the amino acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID

[0974] Some of the amino acid residues of TL1A may be involved in
interaction with more than one of antibodies 1D1, 1D1 1.31 (1.31),
7D4 and 26B11, or DR3. As shown in Table 42, amino acids V31, V32,
R33, T35, P36, T37, Q38, H39, F40, Q43, E50, H51, E52, L53, G54,

and Q151, according to the numbering of the amino acid sequence of
TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID NO:254 interact with at least two of
the 1D1, 1.31, 7D4, 26B11 antibodies or DR3. In some cases, the

antibody binds to a second epitope on the second TL1A monomer,
wherein the second epitope comprises at least one amino acid

according to the numbering of the amino acid sequence of TL1A as
set forth in SEQ ID NO:254.
[0975] Some of the amino acid residues of TL1A may be involved in
interaction with more than two of antibodies 1D1, 1D1 1.31 (1.31),
7D4 and 26B11, or DR3, as shown in Table 42. Therefore, in one
embodiment, the TL1A antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof
according to the present invention binds to one or more amino acids
selected from the group consisting of V31, V32, R33, E50, L53, G54,

antibodies or DR3. In some cases, the TL1A antibody can interact
with amino acids of TL1A reside within different subunits of the

the antibody binds to a first epitope on the first TL1A monomer,
wherein the first epitope comprises at least one amino acid

numbering of the amino acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID
NO:254.
[0976] Some amino acids of TL1A may be involved in interaction with
more than three of antibodies 1D1, 1D1 1.31 (1.31), 7D4 and 26B11,
or DR3, as shown in Table 42. As such, in one embodiment, the TL1A
antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof according to the
present invention interacts with an amino acid of TL1A selected
from the group consisting of R33, Y168, and T169, according to the

NO:254.
[0977] In still other cases, the TL1A amino acid residue is
involved interaction with 1D1 and 1D1 1.31 antibodies. As such, in
certain embodiments, the TL1A antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof according to the present invention binds to at least one
TL1A amino acid selected from the group consisting of V31, V32,
R33, E50, H51, E52, L53, G54, L55, A56, F57, Y168, T169, K170,
E171, K113, Y118, T122, Q123, M147, F148, S149, and Q151, according
to the numbering of the amino acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in
SEQ ID NO:254. In other cases, the antibody can bind to amino acids
within different subunits of the TL1A homomultimer. As such, in one
embodiment, the TL1A antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof
according to the present invention binds to a homomultimer of TL1A
comprising at least a first and second TL1A monomer, wherein the
antibody binds to a first epitope on the first TL1A monomer,
wherein the first epitope comprises at least one amino acid
selected from the group consisting of K113, Y118, T122, Q123, M147,
F148, S149, and Q151, according to the numbering of the amino acid
sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID NO:254, and the antibody
binds to a second epitope on the second TL1A monomer, wherein the
second epitope comprises at least one amino acid selected from the
group consisting of V31, V32, R33, E50, H51, E52, L53, G54, L55,
A56, F57, Y168, T169, K170, E171, according to the numbering of the
amino acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID NO:254.
[0978] In still other cases, the binding of the antibody to TL1A
causes a non-zero change in buried surface area in an amino acid of
TL1A. For example, there is an increase of at least 20 .ANG..sup.2
in the buried surface area in the amino acids R33, Q34, T35, P36,
T37, Q38, H39, F40, K41, N42, P45, E50, L53, G54, L55, F57, T58,
R86, M88, T89, P101, N102, K103, P104, D105, S136, N137, D162,
1163, S164, Y168, T169, K170, E171, N42, K103, P104, D105, K113,
S117, Y118, T122, S149, and Q151, according to the numbering of the
amino acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID NO:254. These
amino acids can be present on different subunits of TL1A: for
example, amino acids of N42, K103, P104, D105, K113, S117, Y118,
T122, S149, and Q151 of a first TL1A subunit, and R33, Q34, T35,
P36, T37, Q38, H39, F40, K41, N42, P45, E50, L53, G54, L55, F57,
T58, R86, M88, T89, P101, N102, K103, P104, D105, S136, N137, D162,
1163, S164, Y168, T169, K170, and E171 of a second TL1A subunit,
according to the numbering of SEQ ID NO: 254. In other cases, there
is an increase of at least 50 .ANG..sup.2 in the buried surface
area in the amino acids R33, T35, P36, Q38, H39, F40, K41, N42,
L53, G54, L55, R86, M88, P101, N102, K103, D105, N137, S164, Y168,
E171, N42, K103, D105, and Y118, according to the numbering of the
amino acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID NO:254. These
amino acids can be present on different subunits of TL1A: for
example, amino acids of N42, K103, D105, and Y118, of a first TL1A
subunit, and R33, T35, P36, Q38, H39, F40, K41, N42, L53, G54, L55,
R86, M88, P101, N102, K103, D105, N137, S164, Y168, and E171,
according to the numbering of the amino acid sequence of TL1A as
set forth in SEQ ID NO:254. In other cases, there is an increase of
at least 100 .ANG..sup.2 in the buried surface area in the amino
acids R33, Q38, F40, K41, L53, R86, M88, and Y118, according to the
numbering of the amino acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID
NO:254. These amino acids can be present on different subunits of
TL1A: for example, amino acid Y118 of a first TL1A subunit, and
R33, Q38, F40, K41, L53, R86, and M88, according to the numbering
of the amino acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID
NO:254.
[0979] A number of amino acid residues of TL1A, for example, amino
acids A56, D232, E171, E52, H109, K111, K173, N112, N172, N207,
P106, P171, Q104, Q108, R156, R33, S149, T122, T169, Y118, Y168,
and Y238, according to the numbering of the amino acid sequence of
TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID NO:254, are involved in hydrogen
bonding with DR3 or the antibodies of the present invention. For
example, as shown in Table 42, TL1A amino acids Q108, H109, K111,
N112, P171, N172, and K173, according to the numbering of the amino
acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID NO:254 are involved in
hydrogen-bond formation with the antibody 26B11. For binding with
antibody 7D4, Q104, P106, R156, N207, D232, and Y238, are shown to
form hydrogen bonds. Amino acids Y118, S149, R33, E52, A56, and
Y168, according to the numbering of the amino acid sequence of TL1A
as set forth in SEQ ID NO:254 can form hydrogen bonds with the
antibody 1D1. Amino acids T122, S149, E52, A56, Y168, T169, and
E171, can form hydrogen bonds when TL1A is bound to 1.31.
[0980] In certain cases, the antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof of the present invention binds to TL1A and participates
with a water molecule that is also hydrogen bonded to one or more
reisdues of TL1A that is selected from the group consisting of R33,
Q38, K41, N42, L55, N102, D105, and M147, according to the
numbering of the amino acid sequence of TL1A as set forth in SEQ ID
NO:254.
Example 10: Binding of Anti-TL1A Antibodies to Human Monocyte Cell
Surface TL1A
[0981] This study demonstrates that TL1A is expressed on the
surface of monocytes upon stimulation with immune complex and that
antibody 1D1 1.31 binds to human monocyte cell surface TL1A.
Antibody 1D1 1.31, expressed as a full length human IgG1 with
effector function-null mutations in the heavy chain Fc (1D1
1.31-hIgG1-3mut) was produced in CHO cells. The isotype control
antibody was an anti-tetanus toxoid (aTT) antibody which is also a
human IgG1 antibody containing the same three effector
function-null mutations as 1D1 1.31.
[0982] Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated from
100 mL of human peripheral blood by first diluting whole blood
50:50 with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and layering 25 mL of
diluted blood over 15 mL Ficoll-Paque. Layered blood was
centrifuged at 930.times.g for 30 minutes. Following
centrifugation, the cellular interface containing PBMC was
collected and washed twice with 10 mL sterile PBS. Cells were
resuspended in 5 mL Pharm Lysing Buffer (BD Biosciences, San Jose,
Calif.) and incubated at room temperature for 5 minutes to lyse the
contaminating red blood cells. After incubation, cells were washed
twice with RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% heat-inactivated fetal
bovine serum (FBS), 10 mM HEPES, 10 units/mL
penicillin/streptomycin, and 2 mM glutamine and resuspended in
complete medium at a final concentration of 2.times.10.sup.6
cells/m L.
[0983] Induction of TL1A on peripheral blood monocytes and staining
with 1D1 1.31 was accomplished by plating 2 mL complete medium
containing 4.times.10.sup.6 PBMC into IC coated 12-well plates in
the presence or absence of 1D1 1.31 and stimulating cells for 4
hours at 37.degree. C. Induction was accomplished using IC formed
by optimal concentrations of human IgG and mouse anti-human IgG.
Plate-bound IC was prepared by incubating 500 .mu.L of 0.5 mg/mL
human IgG (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, West Grove, Pa.) in
PBS per well of a 12-well plate for 1 hour at 37.degree. C.
Following incubation, plates were washed 3 times with PBS and
incubated with mouse anti-human IgG (Jackson ImmunoResearch
Laboratories, West Grove, Pa.) in PBS (20 .mu.g/mL) for 1 hour.
Coated plates were washed 3 times with PBS and stored in PBS prior
to use.
[0984] Membrane-bound TL1A expression on human monocytes was
demonstrated by staining with biotinylated 1D1 1.31 antibody.
Following a 4-hour stimulation, cells were collected by using a
cell lifter/scraper to detach adherent cells from the wells.
Harvested cells were collected by centrifugation and resuspended in
100 .mu.L BD Pharmingen.TM. Stain Buffer (FBS; BD Biosciences, San
Jose, Calif.) and blocked with TruStain FcX (BioLegend.TM. San
Diego, Calif.) on ice for 10 minutes. Anti-CD14 Pacific Blue (BD
Pharmingen.TM., BD Biosciences, San Jose, Calif.) and 10 .mu.g/mL
biotinylated 1D1 1.31 or isotype control antibodies were added and
cells were incubated on ice for 15 minutes. After incubation, cells
were washed with 3 mL of stain buffer, centrifuged at 800.times.g
for 5 minutes and resuspended in 400 .mu.L of stain buffer
containing phycoerythrin (PE)-streptavidin (a 1:1000 dilution of
fluorescently-labeled streptavidin). After incubation, cells were
washed twice, centrifuged, and resuspended in 400 .mu.L of stain
buffer. Membrane-bound TL1A expression was measured using the BD
LSRFortessa.TM. instrument and demonstrated by the increase in mean
fluorescence intensity (MFI) as compared to the biotinylated
isotype control antibody.
[0985] The binding of 1D1 1.31 to membrane-bound TL1A was evaluated
on stimulated human monocytes. Preliminary studies indicated
resting peripheral blood monocytes do not constitutively express
membrane-bound TL1A. Therefore, monocytes were induced to express
endogenous TL1A following immune complex stimulation (via Fc
receptor engagement) to demonstrate binding of 1D1 1.31 to monocyte
cell surface TL1A. Prior in depth characterization of TL1A
up-regulation kinetics demonstrated maximal expression at 4 hours
post IC stimulation, the time point used in subsequent studies to
demonstrate 1D1 1.31 binding to monocytes. IC coated plates induced
TL1A expression on monocyte cell surface 4 hours post stimulation
(FIG. 13). Cells treated with 1D1 1.31 had increased mean
fluorescence intensity compared to the isotype treated and
unstimulated control cells. The specificity of this binding was
confirmed in competition assays using purified naked anti-TL1A
antibodies at 1 and 10 .mu.g/mL (data not shown). These results
illustrate that antibody 1D1 1.31 is an anti-TL1A antibody that
binds specifically to membrane-bound TL1A expressed on stimulated
circulating monocytes.
Example 11: Inhibition Of NF.kappa.B By Anti-TL1A Antibodies In
TF-1 Cells
[0986] To evaluate the functional inhibitory potency and ability of
antibody 1D1 1.31 to inhibit intracellular signaling of TL1A
through DR3, the antibody was evaluated in TF-1 cells (an
erythroblastoma cell line) which constitutively express DR3 and
which were transduced with an NF.kappa.B-promotor-driven luciferase
gene.
[0987] Antibody 1D1 1.31, expressed as a full length human IgG1
with effector function-null mutations in the heavy chain Fc (1D1
1.31-hIgG1-3mut) was produced in CHO cells. The isotype control
antibody was an anti-tetanus toxoid (aTT) antibody which is also a
human IgG1 antibody containing the same three effector
function-null mutations as 1D1 1.31. Soluble TL1A (rsTL1A) was
recombinantly produced.
[0988] TF-1 cells were obtained from the American Tissue Typing
Collection (ATCC, Manassas, Va.). TF-1 cells are derived from a
human hematopoietic erythroblastoma cell line obtained from ATCC.
The TF-1-NF.kappa.B-luciferase reporter cells were generated by
infecting the TF-1 cells with the lentivirus pCignal Lenti
NF.kappa.B-Luciferase reporter (Catalog No. CLS-013L; SA
Biosciences, Valencia, Calif.). Briefly, 30,000 cells per well of a
24-well plate were seeded in 150 .mu.L of RPMI 1640, 10% fetal
bovine serum (FBS), and 2 ng/mL granulocyte macrophage-colony
stimulating factor (GM-CSF). The following day they were infected
with 50 .mu.L (1.times.) and 100 .mu.L (2.times.) of lentivirus
pCignal Lenti NF.kappa.B-luciferase reporter in the presence of 6
.mu.g/mL of polybrene. After 4 days, cells were expanded and
exposed to 1 .mu.g/mL of puromycin for selection of stable
integrates. Selection continued until all mock-infected cells died.
Activity of the reporter in stable pools was assessed by treating
the TF-1-NF.kappa.B-Luc 1.times. and 2.times. cells with various
TNF or TL1A concentrations. Cells (20,000 per 96 well in 100 .mu.L
of media without GM-CSF) were treated with the cytokines for 5
hours at 37.degree. C., 5% CO2. D-luciferin substrate (1500
.mu.g/mL) was then added and after 10 minutes incubation at
37.degree. C., the luminescence signal was read in an EnVision
Luminometer (PerkinElmer, Waltham, Mass.). The TF-1-NF.kappa.B-Luc
2.times. cells were selected for subsequent studies. TF-1 cells
require either interleukin 13 (IL13) or GM-CSF for their long-term
growth. Cells were grown in RPMI 1640 containing 10%
heat-inactivated FBS, 10 mM HEPES, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 2 ng/mL
recombinant human GM-CSF and 1 .mu.g/mL puromycin.
[0989] Constitutive expression of DR3 on TF-1 cells was
demonstrated by staining with a commercial biotinylated-anti-DR3
antibody. Cells were grown overnight without GM-CSF as described in
Section 5.4 for the TL1A-induced caspase activation assay. Cells
were harvested and re-suspended in BD Pharmingen.RTM. Stain Buffer
(FBS) at 1.times.10.sup.6 cells/mL and incubated on ice for 15
minutes with 10 .mu.g/mL of anti-DR3 antibody. After incubation,
cells were washed with 3 mL of stain buffer, centrifuged at 800 g
and re-suspended at 1.times.10.sup.6 cells/mL in the same buffer
with phycoerythrin (PE)-streptavidin, a 1:1000 dilution of
fluorescently-labeled streptavidin. After incubation, the cells
were washed, centrifuged and re-suspended in stain buffer at
1.times.10.sup.6 cells/mL. DR3 expression was examined by flow
cytometry analysis in a BD Biosciences LSRFortessa.TM. instrument
(San Jose, Calif.). DR3 expression is demonstrated by the increase
in mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) as compared to the
streptavidin-PE control.
[0990] To determine the ability of rsTL1A to activate the
transcription factor NF.kappa.B, luciferase activity was measured
in response to rsTL1A in TF-1 cells transfected with a luciferase
gene under the transcriptional control of NF.kappa.B. Two days
before the experiment, TF-1 cells were cultured at a cell density
of 0.3.times.10.sup.6 cells/mL in TF-1 culture media containing
puromycin but not GM-CSF. Solutions containing 2.times. each of the
final concentrations of rsTL1A in 50 .mu.L of TF-1 media without
puromycin or GM-CSF were prepared in duplicate in 96-well plates
(flat bottom for luminescence plates). The 8 rsTL1A concentrations
were titrated down in 3 fold dilutions starting at 3986 pM (3968.3,
1322.8, 440.9, 147, 49, 16.3, 5.4, and 1.8 pM). This TL1A dose
response experiment was also performed in the presence of a final
concentration of 3 nM of the isotype control antibody. In this
case, the same TL1A dose response solutions described above also
contained 2.times. final concentration of isotype control antibody.
The plates were then sealed with aluminum foil and placed overnight
at 4.degree. C. to reach equilibrium. The following day, plates
were pre-warmed at 37.degree. C. for 30 minutes, cells were
harvested, washed once in phosphate buffered saline (PBS),
re-suspended at 1.times.10.sup.6 cells/mL in TF-1 media without
puromycin or GM-CSF and 50,000 cells in 50 .mu.L of cell suspension
were added to 50 .mu.L of pre-warmed TL1A solutions and incubated
for 6 hours at 37.degree. C. One hundred (100) .mu.L of 2.times.
final concentration of 150 .mu.g/mL of Beetle luciferin were added
to the 100 .mu.L wells, mixed well and incubated at 37.degree. C.
for 30 minutes. Plates were read in a luminometer (EnVision, 1
second/well). Mean relative luminescence units (RLU) were plotted
against log TL1A or log 1D1 1.31 concentrations.
EC50 and IC50 Determinations
[0991] TL1A activation curves or antibody inhibition curves were
generated by plotting the luminescence values against the log of
TL1A or antibody concentrations respectively. EC50 (for TL1A) or
IC50 values (for 1D1 1.31) were determined from these graphs using
GraphPad Prism.RTM. (version 5.02, GraphPad Software, Inc., San
Diego, Calif.) nonlinear regression curve fits and a sigmoidal log
of agonist (three parameters) or antagonist dose response (variable
slope, four parameters) model (Equation 1 for TL1A agonist and
Equation 2 for antagonist 1D1 1.31).
Log(agonist) vs. response (three parameters)
Y=Bottom+(Top-Bottom)/(1+10 (Log EC50-X)) Equation 1:
Log(inhibitor) vs. response-variable slope (four parameters)
Y=Bottom+(Top-Bottom)/(1+10 ((Log IC50-X)*HillSlope)) Equation
2:
Where Y is the luminescence value and X is agonist TL1A (Equation
1) or antagonist 1D1 1.31 (Equation 2) concentration, Top is the
maximum Y value corresponding to the upper plateau of the sigmoidal
curve, Bottom is the minimum Y value corresponding to the lower
plateau of the sigmoidal curve, and Log EC50 or Log IC50 is the log
of the concentration of the agonist or antagonist respectively at
the inflection point midway between the maximum and minimum. The
EC50 or IC50 values were summarized across experiments using means
and standard deviations (STDEV).
[0992] The potency and ability of 1D1 1.31 in inhibiting signaling
of TL1A through DR3 was evaluated in an assay that measures
NF.kappa.B activation in TF-1-NF.kappa.B-luciferase cells in
response to TL1A stimulation. FIG. 14A demonstrates constitutive
expression of DR3 on TF-1 cells after overnight culture without
GM-CSF. Biotin-anti-DR3 antibody stained cells had increased mean
fluorescence intensity than the cells treated only with the
streptavidin secondary detection reagent. Biotin-TL1A also stained
the cells while neither the biotin-DR3 antibody nor biotin-TL1A
stained several other DR3-negative cells, demonstrating the
specificity of the staining (not shown).
[0993] The ability of TL1A to activate NF.kappa.B-regulated gene
transcription was evaluated in TF-1-NF.kappa.B-luciferase cells
stimulated with TL1A. Recombinant human soluble TL1A dose-dependent
increase in NF.kappa.B activity is illustrated for a representative
experiment in FIG. 14B. TL1A stimulated NF.kappa.B activity in
TF-1-NF.kappa.B-luciferase cells with a mean EC50 value of
149.+-.38 pM (n=8). In this assay, relative light units (RLU)
increased 10-15 fold over background at saturating TL1A
concentrations. 1D1 1.31 dose dependent inhibition of NF.kappa.B
activation by 150 pM TL1A in TF-1-NF.kappa.B-luciferase cells is
shown for a representative experiment in FIG. 14C. 1D1 1.31
inhibited TL1A activation of NF.kappa.B with a mean IC50 value of
95.+-.5.5 pM (n=4). These functional potency values are in
agreement with the binding affinity of 1D1 1.31 for TL1A. In
addition, similar potency values were calculated in other
functional studies measuring the inhibition of the activation of
caspase activity in TF-1 (see Example 12) or the production of
IFN.gamma. in response to IC, IL-12 and IL-18 stimulation in human
whole blood (see Example 13).
[0994] The isotype control antibody had no inhibitory effect on
this assay as shown in FIG. 14D and FIG. 14E. Results are
illustrated for a representative experiment FIG. 14D. The mean EC50
value for TL1A stimulation of NF.kappa.B activity in the absence of
isotype control antibody was 103.+-.27 pM (n=4) and in the presence
of isotype control antibody was 110.+-.18 pM (n=4). In addition, an
isotype control antibody dose response experiment with up to 30 nM
TL1A did not cause inhibition (illustrated in FIG. 14E). These
experiments indicated that there was no inhibition attributed to
the isotype antibody.
[0995] The studies described demonstrate the ability of 1D1 1.31 to
potently block the downstream signaling of the TL1A/DR3 interaction
leading to NF.kappa.B activation in TF-1-NF.kappa.B-luciferase
cells. These experiments show that 1D1 1.31 is a potent antagonist
of TL1A/DR3 signaling.
Example 12: Inhibition of Caspase Activation Response by Anti-TL1A
Antibodies
[0996] TL1A activates the NF.kappa.B pathway in TF-1 cells but is
also able to induce apoptosis by activating the caspase pathway
when the NF.kappa.B pathway is inhibited by protein synthesis
inhibitors such as cycloheximide. The purpose of this study was to
evaluate the neutralizing activity and potency of the anti-TL1A
antibody 1D1 1.31 in a caspase activation assay in TF-1 cells in
response to stimulation by recombinant soluble human TL1A
(rsTL1A).
[0997] TF-1 cells were derived from a human hematopoietic
erythroblastoma cell line obtained from ATCC. TF-1 cells require
either IL-13 or granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor
(GM-CSF) for their long-term growth. The TF-1 cells were grown in
RPMI 1640 containing 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS),
10 mM HEPES, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, and 2 ng/mL recombinant human
GM-CSF.
Expression of DR3 in TF-1 Cells
[0998] Constitutive expression of DR3 on TF-1 cells was
demonstrated by staining with a commercial biotinylated-anti-DR3
antibody (eBiosciences, San Diego, Calif.). Cells were grown
overnight without GM-CSF as described below for the TL1A-induced
caspase activation assay. Cells were harvested and re-suspended in
BD Pharmingen.TM. Stain Buffer (FBS; BD Biosciences, San Jose,
Calif.) at 1.times.10.sup.6 cells/mL and incubated on ice for 15
minutes with 10 .mu.g/mL of anti-DR3 antibody. After incubation,
cells were washed with 3 mL of stain buffer, centrifuged at
800.times.g and re-suspended at 1.times.10.sup.6 cells/mL in the
same buffer with phycoerythrin (PE)-streptavidin, a 1:1000 dilution
of fluorescently-labeled streptavidin. After incubation, the cells
were washed, centrifuged and re-suspended in stain buffer at
1.times.10.sup.6 cells/mL. DR3 expression was examined by flow
cytometry analysis in a BD LSRFortessa.TM. instrument. DR3
expression is demonstrated by the increase in mean fluorescence
intensity (MFI) as compared to the streptavidin-PE control.
Caspase Activation in TF-1 Cells by Recombinant Soluble TL1A
[0999] To determine the ability of rsTL1A to activate the apoptotic
pathway, caspase activation in response to exogenous rsTL1A was
evaluated in TF-1 cells treated with cycloheximide (CHX) to inhibit
the signaling toward the NF.kappa.B pathway and allow caspase and
apoptotic pathway activation. The day before the experiment TF-1
cells were cultured at a cell density of 0.3.times.10.sup.6
cells/mL in TF-1 culture media containing 2 ng/mL of GM-CSF.
Separately, solutions containing 2.times. each of the final
concentrations of rsTL1A and CHX (2 nM final concentration) in 50
.mu.L of TF-1 media without GM-CSF were prepared in triplicate in
96 well plates (flat bottom for luminescence plates). The 12 rsTL1A
concentrations were titrated down in 2 fold dilutions starting at
3986 pM (3986, 1984, 992, 496,248, 124, 62, 31, 15.5, 7.75, 3.88
and 1.94 pM). The following day, plates were pre-warmed at
37.degree. C. for 30 minutes, cells were harvested, washed once in
phosphate buffered saline (PBS), re-suspended at 0.6.times.10.sup.6
cells/mL in TF-1 media without GM-CSF and 30,000 cells in 50 .mu.L
of cell suspension were added to 50 .mu.L of pre-warmed TL1A/CHX
solutions and incubated for 6 hours at 37.degree. C. One hundred
(100) .mu.L of Caspase-Glo.RTM. 3/7 kit (Promega, Madison, Wis.)
was added and incubated at room temperature for 15 minutes. Plates
were read in an EnVision.TM. luminometer (1 second/well;
PerkinElmer, Waltham, Mass.). Early steps in apoptosis involve
activation of caspases including caspase-3 and -7. The
CaspaseGlo.RTM. 3/7 Assay is a homogeneous luminescent assay that
measures caspase-3 and -7 activities in purified enzyme
preparations or cultures of adherent or suspension cells. The assay
provides a luminogenic caspase-3/7 selective substrate, which
contains the tetrapeptide sequence DEVD (SEQ ID NO: 395)
(recognition sequence). This substrate is cleaved to release
aminoluciferin, a substrate of luciferase used in the production of
light. The Caspase-Glo.RTM. 3/7 Reagent is optimized for caspase
activity, luciferase activity and cell lysis. Addition of the
CaspaseGlo.RTM. 3/7 Reagent in an "add-mix-measure" format results
in cell lysis, followed by caspase cleavage of the substrate and
generation of a "glow-type" luminescent signal. The assay relies on
the properties of a proprietary thermostable luciferase
(Ultra-GloLuciferase.RTM., Promega) formulated to generate a stable
signal across a wide range of assay conditions. The luminescence is
proportional to the amount of caspase activity present.
[1000] Antibody 1D1 1.31 Inhibition of Caspase Activation in TF-1
Cells by Recombinant Soluble TL1A
[1001] Antibody 1D1 1.31 inhibition of caspase activation was
evaluated in TF-1 cells in the presence of CHX. Briefly, the day
before the experiment, TF-1 cells were cultured at
0.3.times.10.sup.6 cells/mL in TF-1 culture media containing 2
ng/mL of GM-CSF. Separately, solutions containing 2.times. each of
the final concentrations of antibody, CHX (20 .mu.g/mL or 2 nM
final concentration) and rsTL1A (5.5 ng/mL or 87 pM final
concentration) in 50 .mu.L of TF-1 media (without GM-CSF) were
prepared in triplicate in a 96 well plate. The plates were then
sealed with aluminum foil and placed overnight at 4.degree. C. to
reach equilibrium. The 10 or 12 point antibody concentrations were
titrated down in 2 and/or 3 fold dilutions starting at 1, 2 or 3 nM
depending on the experiment. For the representative experiment in
FIG. 15B, concentrations were 3000, 1000, 333, 185, 103, 57, 31.8,
17.6, 4.1, and 0.5 pM. rsTL1A (87 pM) was calculated as the mean
concentration which gives half of maximal response (EC50) in
previous rsTL1A dose response caspase activation experiments (n=3)
as described above. The following day, plates were pre-warmed at
37.degree. C. for 30 minutes, cells were harvested, washed once in
PBS, re-suspended at 0.6.times.10.sup.6 cells/mL in TF-1 media
without GM-CSF and 30,000 cells in 50 .mu.L of cell suspension were
added to 50 .mu.L of pre-warmed antibody/TL1A/CHX solutions and
incubated for 6 hours at 37.degree. C. One hundred (100) .mu.L of
Caspase-Glo.RTM. 3/7 kit (Promega) was added and incubated at room
temperature for 15 minutes. Plates were read in a luminometer
(Envision, 1 sec/well). In parallel with the 1D1 1.31 inhibition
dose response experiments, a rsTL1A dose response experiment was
performed to calculate the EC50 for each particular experiment and
to verify the approximate percent of maximal response corresponding
to 87 pM, the concentration used to evaluate the inhibitory potency
of the antibody.
EC50 and IC50 Determinations
[1002] Mean relative luminescence units (RLU) were plotted against
log TL1A or log 1D1 1.31 concentrations. TL1A activation curves or
antibody inhibition curves were generated by plotting the
luminescence values against the log of TL1A or antibody
concentrations respectively. EC50 (for TL1A) or IC50 values (for
1D1 1.31) were determined from these graphs using GraphPad
Prism.RTM. (version 5.02, GraphPad Software, Inc., San Diego,
Calif.) nonlinear regression curve fits and a sigmoidal log of
agonist or antagonist dose response model (Equation 1 for TL1A
agonist and Equation 2 for antagonist 1D1 1.31).
Log(agonist) vs. response (three parameters)
Y=Bottom+(Top-Bottom)/(1+10 (Log EC50-X)) Equation 1:
Log(inhibitor) vs. response-variable slope (four parameters)
Y=Bottom+(Top-Bottom)/(1+10 ((Log IC50-X)*HillSlope)) Equation
2:
Where Y is the luminescence value and X is agonist TL1A (Equation
1) or antagonist 1D1 1.31 (Equation 2) concentration, Top is the
maximum Y value corresponding to the upper plateau of the sigmoidal
curve, Bottom is the minimum Y value corresponding to the lower
plateau of the sigmoidal curve, and Log EC50 or Log IC50 is the log
of the concentration of the agonist or antagonist respectively at
the inflection point midway between the maximum and minimum. The
EC50 or IC50 values were summarized across experiments using means
and standard deviations (STDEV).
[1003] The potency and ability of 1D1 1.31 in inhibiting signaling
of TL1A through DR3 was evaluated in an assay that measures caspase
activation in TF-1 cells in response to TL1A stimulation. DR3 was
constitutively expressed on TF-1 cells at the time of performing
the caspase activation experiment after overnight culture without
GM-CSF. Biotin-anti-DR3 antibody treated cells had increased mean
fluorescence intensity than the cells treated only with the
streptavidin secondary detection reagent. Biotin-TL1A also stained
the cells while neither the biotin-DR3 antibody nor biotin-TL1A
stained several other DR3-negative cells, demonstrating the
specificity of the staining (not shown).
[1004] TL1A-induced caspase activation was evaluated in TF-1 cells
in the presence of CHX to block signaling through the NF.kappa.B
pathway and consequently deviate to the downstream receptor
signaling mechanism towards the apoptotic pathway via caspase
activation. A dose-dependent increase in caspase activity via
recombinant soluble TL1A (rsTL1A) is illustrated from a
representative experiment in FIG. 15A TL1A stimulated caspase
activity in TF-1 cells with a mean EC50 value of 90.+-.7 pM (n=3).
In this assay, RLU increased 3-5 fold over background at saturating
TL1A concentrations. 1D1 1.31 dose dependent inhibition of caspase
activation by 87 pM TL1A in TF-1 cells is shown from a
representative experiment in FIG. 15B. 1D1 1.31 inhibited the
TL1A-dependent increase in caspase activity with a mean IC50 value
of 69.+-.15 pM (n=3). These functional potency values are in
agreement with the binding affinity of 1D1 1.31 for TL1A. In
addition, similar potency values were calculated in other
functional studies measuring the inhibition of the activation of
NF.kappa.B in TF-1 cells or the production of IFN.gamma. in
response to immune complex (IC), IL-12 and IL-18 stimulation in
human whole blood.
[1005] These studies demonstrate the ability of 1D1 1.31 to
potently block the downstream signaling of the TL1A/DR3 interaction
leading to caspase activation and apoptosis in TF-1 cells treated
with CHX. These studies show that 1D1 1.31 is a potent antagonist
of TL1A/DR3 signaling.
Example 13: Inhibition and Depletion of Cytokines by Anti-TL1A
Antibodies in Human Whole Blood
[1006] The purpose of this study was to evaluate the neutralizing
activity and potency of the anti-TL1A antibody 1D1 1.31 in an assay
in human peripheral blood that measures cytokine secretion under
conditions of up-regulation and activation of membrane-expressed
endogenous TL1A and DR3. In this assay, expression of the
membrane-bound form of TL1A permits evaluation of inhibition of
both forms of TL1A, the cell associated and the soluble form, as
well as soluble TL1A target coverage in a physiologically relevant
ex vivo human whole blood system.
[1007] For immune complex (IC) stimulation of human blood, IC
plates were prepared the day before the experiment. Ninety-six well
(96), flat bottom tissue culture plates were coated with 50 .mu.L
per well of 0.5 mg/mL or 0.25 mg/mL of human immunoglobulin G
(hIgG) in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), and kept at 4.degree. C.
overnight. The next morning, the plates were washed three times
with 150 .mu.L PBS per well. After removal of PBS, 50 .mu.L per
well of 0.02 mg/mL or 0.08 mg/mL of mouse anti-human IgG in PBS
were added and plates were incubated at 37.degree. C. for 1 hour.
Plates were then washed three times with 150 .mu.L PBS per well
prior to use.
[1008] For IC and IL-12 and IL-18 stimulation of human whole blood,
approximately 10 mL of blood from healthy donors was collected in
Na Heparin coated tubes. Blood samples were normally delivered at
room temperature within one hour after the blood draw. IL-12 (0.5
ng/mL final concentration) and IL-18 (5 ng/mL final concentration)
were mixed in with blood prior to addition of 190 .mu.L of the
blood/IL-12/IL-18 mixture to each well of the IC coated plates. To
evaluate the inhibitory potency of 1D1 1.31, 12-concentration dose
response curves were generated by adding 10 .mu.L per well of a
20.times. final concentration of 1D1 1.31 (or isotype control
antibody) in 0.1% bovine serum albumin (bovine serum albumin) in
PBS. 1D1 1.31 (or isotype control antibody) concentrations were
30000, 10000, 3333.33, 1111.11, 370.37, 123.45, 12.34, 1.234,
0.1234, 0.01234, 0.001234 and 0.0001 pM; and 30000, 10000, 3333.3,
1111.11, 370.37, 37.037, 3.7 037, 0.3704, 0.037, 0.002, 9E-05 and
4.6E-06 pM. All conditions were done in triplicate but controls (no
antibody) were repeated in 10-12 wells; no or single stimulation
controls (only IC or only IL-12/IL-18) were also included in
triplicate or more replicates. After 24 hours of culture at
37.degree. C., 100 .mu.L of 5% bovine serum albumin in PBS were
added and mixed well with the 200 .mu.L of blood cultures to dilute
plasma (dilution factor: 1.5). One hundred fifty (150) .mu.L per
well of diluted plasma were harvested after the plates were
centrifuged at 930.times.g (2000 rpm) for 15 minutes and further
diluted 4 times in 5% bovine serum albumin in PBS for
quantification of IFN.gamma. and 1D1 1.31-free form of TL1A using
MSD (Mesoscale Discovery, Rockville, Md.)-based ligand-binding
assays. IFN.gamma. was measured using the MSD human IFN.beta. kit
(Catalog No. K151AEB-1) following the manufacturer's instructions.
Two assays were developed at PGRD for measuring sTL1A, one that
measures only antibody unbound sTL1A and another one that measures
total sTL1A (antibody bound and unbound). Briefly, to measure 1D1
1.31-free sTL1A, MSD blank plates (MSD, Catalog No. L15XA-6) were
coated with 30 .mu.L per well of 2 .mu.g/mL in PBS of anti-TL1A
clone No. 26B11 at 4.degree. C. overnight. The following day,
plates were washed three times with 150 .mu.L per well of 0.1%
Tween 20 in PBS, followed with 150 .mu.L per well of blocking
solution (5% bovine serum albumin in PBS), then the plates were
incubated at room temperature for 1 hour with orbital shaking (1500
rpm).
[1009] After the plates were washed as mentioned above, diluted
plasma samples were added and incubated at 4.degree. C. overnight.
The following day, 0.25 .mu.g/mL of Sulfo-tag labeled detection Ab
(MSD anti-TL1A clone No. 1D1-VH-37 (1D1 D37); 30 .mu.L per well;
labeled as per manufacturer's instructions) were added after the
plates had been washed, and were incubated at room temperature for
2 hours with orbital shaking (1500 rpm) followed by the same plate
wash protocol mentioned above. TL1A standard curves were generated
using recombinant human soluble TL1A. Plates were read following
the manufacturer's procedure, standard curve and plasma
concentration of the cytokine were calculated with the MSD
software. A similar protocol but using non-competitive antibodies
for both capture and detection was used to detect total TL1A (1D1
1.31-free and -bound soluble TL1A).
[1010] Antibody 1D1 1.31 inhibition dose response curves were
generated by plotting the concentrations of either IFN.gamma. or
soluble TL1A in pg/mL of plasma against the log of antibody
concentrations. The 1D1 1.31 IC50 values were determined from these
graphs using GraphPad Prism.RTM. (version 5.02, GraphPad Software,
Inc, San Diego, Calif.) nonlinear regression curve fits and a
sigmoidal log of antagonist dose response (variable slope, four
parameters) model (Equation 1).
Log(inhibitor) vs. response-variable slope (four parameters)
Y=Bottom+(Top-Bottom)/(1+10 ((Log IC50-X)*HillSlope)) Equation

Where Y is the concentration of cytokine and X the antagonist 1D1
1.31 (Equation 1) concentration, Top is the maximum Y value
corresponding to the upper plateau of the sigmoidal curve, Bottom
is the minimum Y value corresponding to the lower plateau of the
sigmoidal curve, and Log IC50 is the log of the concentration of
the antagonist at the inflection point midway between the maximum
and minimum. The IC50 values were summarized across experiments
using means and standard deviations (STDEV).
[1011] The potency and ability of 1D1 1.31 to inhibit endogenous
TL1A activation of DR3-expressing primary cells in human whole
blood was evaluated in an assay that measures the release of
IFN.gamma. in response to stimulation by IC (which upregulates TL1A
expression on monocytes) and IL-12 and IL-18 (which upregulate CD3
expression on NK and NKT cells). Due to the lack of constitutive
expression of TL1A and DR3 on peripheral blood leukocytes, and in
order to measure downstream DR3 activation (such as IFN.gamma.
secretion) upon endogenous TL1A engagement, upregulation of
expression of TL1A on monocytes and DR3 on responding NK or NKT is
required. Optimal stimulatory conditions were derived from previous
experiments demonstrating the kinetics of TL1A upregulation on
monocytes by IC stimulation and the upregulation of DR3 on NK and
NKT cells by the combination of the IL-12 and IL-18 cytokines.
Single stimulation conditions (eg, only IC or only IL-12/IL-18)
indicated that IC stimulation is sufficient for the levels of TL1A
up-regulation achieved and that IL-12/IL-18 alone is sufficient to
up-regulate DR3. However, it is likely that both stimuli synergize
for optimal functional response beyond their effects on
up-regulation of expression. Conditions were also optimized for
cytokine production and TL1A-dependence of that production. Mean
IFN.gamma. concentrations following IC and IL-12 and IL-18
stimulation were 4089.+-.2908 pg/mL (range 289-8946 pg/mL; mean 537
fold induction over un-stimulated blood; n=14; 8 unique donors).
1D1 1.31 dose-dependent inhibition of IFN.gamma. production by
whole blood stimulated by IC and IL-12 and IL-18 is shown for a
representative experiment in FIG. 16A. At the highest saturating
1D1 1.31 concentrations, inhibition reached a maximum without
achieving complete inhibition and suggesting partial inhibition of
the response. This is not surprising given that many
pro-inflammatory pathways lead to inflammatory cytokine production
and that the stimulatory conditions used are not specific to the
TL1A/DR3 pathway and are likely to activate other pathways in
addition to the TL1A/DR3 pathway. The IFN.gamma. response measured
is likely contributed by TL1A-dependent and independent pathways.
Nonetheless, under these conditions, the TL1A pathway seems to be a
major contributor to the response as mean maximal inhibition of
IFN.gamma. secretion by 1D1 1.31 in this system was 62%.+-.10%
n=14; 8 unique donors; range 38-77%) suggesting that the
TL1A-dependent response accounts for approximately an average of
two thirds of the response and that TL1A-independent mechanisms
also contribute to the total IFN.gamma. production in this assay
system. The potency of 1D1 1.31 was determined by calculating the
IC50 for the TL1A-mediated response. 1D1 1.31 inhibits IFN.gamma.
.quadrature. secretion by endogenous TL1A upregulated in whole
blood by IC with an IC50 of 277.+-.125 pM (n=11; 8 unique
donors).
[1012] In the same human peripheral blood assay in which 1D1 1.31
was evaluated for its suppression on IFN.gamma. levels in response
to IC and IL-12 and IL-18 stimulation, 1D1 1.31 was also evaluated
for its effect on sTL1A plasma levels. IC and IL-12/IL-18
stimulation of human whole blood resulted in endogenous soluble
TL1A elevations to mean values of 940.+-.293 pg/mL (FIG. 16B; range
535-1409 pg/mL; mean 50 fold induction over unstimulated blood;
n=8, 5 unique donors). These increases of sTL1A at 24 hours likely
reflect proteolytic cleavage from monocyte membrane TL1A which was
shown to be maximally and transiently expressed on monocytes at
earlier time points upon IC stimulation. 1D1 1.31 binding to
soluble TL1A was measured by the dose-dependent and complete
depletion of 1D1 1.31-free soluble TL1A. 1D1 1.31 depletes
antibody-free soluble TL1A with a mean IC50 value of 1.06.+-.1.68
pM (n=8; 5 unique donors). The presence of sTL1A was confirmed by
the measure of total sTL1A (which could detect also antibody bound
TL1A). Inhibition of IFN.gamma..quadrature. production started at
concentrations of 1D1 1.31 at which depletion of
antibody-free-soluble TL1A was .gtoreq.90%. The difference in IC50
values for antibody-free-sTL1A depletion and for IFN.gamma.
inhibition suggests that membrane bound TL1A activity might mediate
IFN.gamma. production by mediating cell to cell interactions.
Indeed, early assay development experiments showed that addition of
plasma containing similarly high concentrations of endogenous
soluble TL1A to IL-12/IL-18 stimulated blood was not as effective
on increasing IFN.gamma. production as IC stimulation of TL1A
up-regulation on monocytes.
[1013] The data disclosed herein demonstrate that 1D1 1.31 is a
potent inhibitor of the activity of endogenous membrane and soluble
form of TL1A in human peripheral blood. 1D1 1.31 inhibits
IFN.gamma. secretion following human peripheral blood upregulation
and activation of TL1A on monocytes and DR3 on effector cells by IC
and IL-12 and IL-18 stimulation with a mean IC50 value of
277.+-.125 pM.
Example 14: Inhibition of IFN.gamma. Production and Depletion of
Antibody-Free Soluble TL1A in Response to Immune Complex and
IL-12/IL-18 Stimulation of Cynomolgus Monkey Whole Blood
[1014] The purpose of this study was to evaluate the neutralizing
activity and potency of the anti-TL1A antibody 1D1 1.31 in an assay
in cynomolgus monkey peripheral blood that measures cytokine
secretion under conditions of up-regulation and activation of
membrane-expressed endogenous TL1A and DR3. In this assay,
expression of the membrane-bound form of TL1A permits evaluation of
the inhibition of both forms of TL1A, the cell associated and the
soluble form, as well as soluble TL1A target coverage in a
physiologically relevant ex vivo cynomolgus whole blood system.
[1015] The 1D1 1.31 antibody used for these experiments was
produced in CHO cells. The isotype control antibody was an antibody
which is also a human IgG1 antibody containing the same three
effector function-null mutations as 1D1 1.31. Recombinant
cynomolgus monkey soluble TL1A (cyno rsTL1A) (Leu72-Leu251, see SEQ
ID NO:259) was produced using standard protocols known in the
art.
[1016] For immune complex (IC) IC stimulation of cyno blood, IC
plates were prepared the day of the experiment. Ninety-six well
(96), flat bottom tissue culture plates were coated with 50 .mu.L
per well of 1 mg/mL of human immunoglobulin G (hIgG) in phosphate
buffered saline (PBS), and incubated at 37.degree. C. for 1 hour.
Wells were then washed three times with 150 .mu.L PBS per well.
After removal of PBS, 50 .mu.L per well of 0.04 mg/mL of mouse
anti-human IgG in PBS were added and plates were incubated at
37.degree. C. for 1 hour. Plates were then washed three times with
150 .mu.L PBS per well prior to use.
[1017] For IC and IL-12 and IL-18 stimulation, cynomolgus monkey
blood was collected in sodium heparin coated tubes and used within
one hour after the blood draw. Human IL-12 (1 ng/mL final
concentration) and human IL-18 (10 ng/mL final concentration) were
mixed in with blood prior to addition of 95 .mu.L of the
blood/IL-12/IL-18 mixture to each well of the IC coated plates. To
evaluate the inhibitory potency of 1D1 1.31, 12-concentration dose
response curves were generated by adding 5 .mu.L per well of a
20.times. final concentration of 1D1 1.31 (or isotype control
antibody) in 0.1% bovine serum albumin (bovine serum albumin) in
PBS. 1D1 1.31 (or isotype control antibody) concentrations were
100000, 33333, 11111, 3703.7, 1234.5, 411.5, 137.17, 13.717,
1.3717, 0.13717 and 0.0137 and 0.00137 pM for some sets of
experiments, and 100000, 20000, 4000, 800, 160, 32, 6.4, 0.64,
0.064, 0.0064, 0.00064, and 0.000064 pM for other sets of
experiments. All experiments were done in triplicate. Controls
included stimulation without antibody as well as no, or single
stimulation controls (only IC or only IL-12/IL-18) in triplicate.
After 24 hours of culture at 37.degree. C., 200 .mu.L of 5% bovine
serum albumin in PBS were added and mixed well with the 100 .mu.L
of blood cultures to dilute plasma (dilution factor: 3). One
hundred and fifty(150) .mu.L per well of diluted plasma were
harvested after the plates were centrifuged at 930.times.g (2000
rpm) for 15 minutes and tested immediately for quantification of
IFN.gamma. and 1D1 1.31-free form of TL1A using MSD (Mesoscale
Discovery, Rockville, Md.)-based ligand-binding assays. IFN.gamma.
was measured using the MSD human IFN.gamma. kit (Catalog No.
K151AEB-1) following the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, to
measure 1D1 1.31-free sTL1A, MSD blank plates (MSD, Catalog No.
L15XA-6) were coated with 30 .mu.L per well of 4 .mu.g/mL in PBS of
anti-TL1A clone No. 26B11 at 4.degree. C. overnight. The following
day, plates were washed three times with 150 .mu.L per well of 0.1%
Tween 20 in PBS, followed with 150 .mu.L per well of blocking
solution (5% bovine serum albumin in PBS), then the plates were
incubated at room temperature for 1 hour with orbital shaking (1500
rpm). After the plates were washed as mentioned above, 40 .mu.L of
plasma samples were added and incubated at 4.degree. C. for 2 hours
followed by the same washing three times and by addition of 1
.mu.g/mL of Sulfo-tag labeled detection Ab (MSD anti-TL1A clone No.
1D1 1.31; 30 .mu.L per well; labeled as per manufacturer's
instructions). Plates were incubated at room temperature for 2
hours with orbital shaking (1500 rpm) followed by the same plate
wash protocol mentioned above. TL1A standard curves were generated
using recombinant cynomolgus monkey soluble TL1A. Plates were read
following the manufacturer's procedure, standard curve and plasma
concentration of the cytokine were calculated using the MSD
software per manufacturer's instructions.
IC50 Determinations
[1018] The 1D1 1.31 inhibition dose response curves were generated
by plotting the concentrations of either IFN.gamma. or soluble TL1A
in pg/mL of plasma against the log of antibody concentrations. 1D1
1.31 IC50 values were determined from these graphs using GraphPad
Prism.RTM. (version 5.02, GraphPad Software, Inc, San Diego,
Calif.) nonlinear regression curve fits and a sigmoidal log of
antagonist dose response (variable slope, four parameters) model
(Equation 1).

sigmoidal curve, and Log IC50 is the log of the concentration of
the antagonist at the inflection point midway between the maximum
and minimum. The IC50 values were summarized across experiments
using means and standard deviations (STDEV).
1D1 1.31 Inhibition of IFN Gamma Production in Whole Blood
Activated by Immune Complex and IL-2/IL-18
[1019] The ability of 1D1 1.31 to inhibit endogenous TL1A
activation of DR3-expressing primary cells in cynomolgus monkey
whole blood was evaluated in an assay that measures the release of
IFN.gamma. in response to stimulation by IC (which upregulates TL1A
expression on monocytes) and IL-12 and IL-18 (which upregulate CD3
expression on NK and NKT cells). Experimental conditions were
adapted from an assay developed in human whole blood and further
optimized for cytokine production in cynomolgus blood. Mean
IFN.gamma. concentrations following IC and IL-12 and IL-18
stimulation were 222.+-.220 pg/mL (range 99-667 pg/mL; mean 222
fold induction over un-stimulated blood; n=6 monkeys). This
IFN.gamma. production is lower than in human blood (4089.+-.2908
pg/mL) possibly due to the fact that human (instead of cynomolgus
monkey) IL-12 and IL-18 were used to activate the pathway.
Nonetheless, the IC stimulation resulted in similar levels of sTL1A
production as in human blood and the system was appropriate for
evaluation of the pharmacologic activity of the test article.
Dose-dependent inhibition by 1D1 1.31 of IFN.gamma. production by
monkey whole blood cells stimulated by IC and IL-12 and IL-18 is
shown for a representative experiment in FIG. 17A. At the highest
saturating 1D1 1.31 concentrations, inhibition reached a plateau of
maximum inhibition without achieving complete inhibition,
suggesting partial inhibition of the response. This is not
surprising given that the stimulatory conditions used are not
specific to the TL1A/DR3 pathway and are likely to also activate
other pathways which may result in the production of inflammatory
cytokines. Hence, the IFN.gamma. response measured is likely
contributed by TL1A-dependent and independent pathways.
Nonetheless, under these conditions, the TL1A pathway seems to be a
major contributor to the response as mean maximal inhibition of
IFN.gamma. secretion by 1D1 1.31 in this system was 71%.+-.21% (n=6
different monkeys; range 50-99%) suggesting that the TL1A-dependent
response accounts for approximately an average of two thirds of the
response. These results were also similar in the human system (mean
maximal inhibition was 62%.+-.10%). The potency of 1D1 1.31 was
determined by calculating the IC50 for the TL1A-mediated response.
1D1 1.31 inhibits IFN.gamma. secretion by endogenous TL1A
upregulated in monkey whole blood by IC with an IC50 of 36.+-.42 pM
(n=6 monkeys; range 6-119 pM). These results indicate that the
inhibitory potency of 1D1 1.31 for the cynomolgus TL1A/DR3 pathway
is similar or greater than its potency in the inhibition of the
human pathway (IC50 of 277.+-.125 pM). In this assay, there was no
dose-dependent inhibition by the isotype control antibody.
Soluble TL1A Levels in Whole Blood Activated by Immune Complex and
IL-12/IL-18 and Treated by 1D1 1.31
[1020] In the same human peripheral blood assay in which 1D1 1.31
was evaluated for its suppression on IFN.gamma. levels in response
to IC and IL-12 and IL-18 stimulation, 1D1 1.31 was also evaluated
for its effect on sTL1A plasma levels. IC and IL-12/IL-18
stimulation of monkey whole blood resulted in endogenous soluble
TL1A elevations to mean values of 1519.+-.686 pg/mL (FIG. 17B;
range 485-2597 pg/mL; mean 116 fold induction over unstimulated
blood; n=6 monkeys). These values were similar to the ones measured
in human whole blood (940.+-.293 pg/mL; 50 fold induction) and also
similar to the values 1430.+-.211 pg/mL measured with IC
stimulation alone (no IL-12/IL-18) of the cynomolgus monkey blood.
These increases of sTL1A at 24 hours likely reflect proteolytic
cleavage from monocyte membrane TL1A which was shown to be
maximally and transiently expressed on human monocytes at earlier
time points upon IC stimulation. 1D1 1.31 binding to soluble TL1A
was measured by the dose-dependent decrease of 1D1 1.31-free
soluble TL1A. 1D1 1.31 depletes antibody-free soluble TL1A with a
mean IC50 value of 22.+-.35 pM (range 0.114-90 pg/mL; n=6 monkeys).
The corresponding human IC50 value was 1.06.+-.1.68.
[1021] Anti-TL1A antibody 1D1 1.31 inhibits IFN.gamma. secretion
following activation of TL1A/DR3 pathway in cynomolgus monkey
peripheral blood by stimulation with IC and IL-12 and IL-18 with a
mean IC50 value of 36.+-.45 pM. These values are indicative of
pharmacological activity in cynomolgus monkey and are comparable to
the potency of 1D1 1.31 in human peripheral blood.
Example 15: Biological Assays Using 1D1 Variant Antibodies
[1022] The above-described NFkB assay, Caspase assay, and human
whole blood cytokine assay (Examples 11, 12, and 13) were also
repeated with antibodies 1D1 1.27, 1D1 1.28, 1D1 1.29, 1D1 1.30,
1D1 1.31, 1D1 1.32, 1D1 1.33, and 1D1 1.34. The results of these
experiments are summarized in Table 19. Each of the affinity
matured antibodies demonstrated improved activity over 1D1 parental
antibody.

Example 16: Epitope Mapping of TL1A Bound to Antibody 1D1
Parental
[1023] In the present disclosure, residues of the antigen and
antibody are said to be hydrogen bonded if they include a hydrogen
bond donor atom (bound to an electropositive hydrogen) in one
molecule located within 3.2 .ANG. of a hydrogen bond acceptor atom
having a lone pair of electrons in the other molecule.
[1024] Residues of the antibody and antigen are said to form a salt
bridge if they contain a positively charged atom in one molecule
within 4 .ANG. of a negatively charged atom in the other
molecule.
[1025] The per-residue solvent exclusion was determined by
calculating the solvent accessible surface area of each residue of
the antibody and antigen in complex and subtracting this from the
sum of the solvent accessible surface areas of the two components
considered individually.
[1026] The solvent accessible surface area was calculated according
to the method of Strake and Rupley (J Mol Biol 79 (2): 351-71,
1973). The pairwise buried surface area was used to estimate the
individual contributions of pairs of residues from the antibody and
antigen to the overall effect of buried surface area on binding
energy. Since buried surface area is not pairwise decomposable, the
buried surface area of each residue in the epitope was calculated
in the presence of each individual antibody residue in the absence
of the rest of the antibody. These individual contributions were
then normalized so that the sum of all individual contributions of
all antibody residues to the buried surface area of a given epitope
residue would equal the total buried surface area of that epitope
residue due to the binding of the entire antibody. This process was
repeated in reverse for the individual contributions of epitope
residues to the buried surface area of antibody residues. The value
for each pair of residues shown in the tables is the sum of these
two calculations for that pair of residues.
Analysis of the Co-Crystal Structure of TL with 1D1
[1027] Based on the co-crystal structures of homologous TNF family
members with their receptors, TL1A is expected to interact with its
receptor, DR3, at the intersections between monomers within the
trimeric TL1A quaternary structure. The epitope of antibody 1D1
spans this intersection (FIG. 5) and would therefore be expected to
block receptor activation by directly occluding the receptor
binding interface on TL1A. The geometry of the interaction between
the 1D1 variable domain and the epitope on TL1A is such that it is
unlikely that a single dimeric 1D1 molecule could simultaneously
bind two epitopes on a single trimeric TL1A molecule.
Mapping TL Epitope with 1D1
[1028] 1D1 binding buries a surface area of approximately 1018
.ANG..sup.2 on TL1A with 697 .ANG..sup.2 contributed by one TL1A
monomer (monomer A or chain A) and 321 .ANG..sup.2 contributed by
its neighbor (monomer B or chain B). Residues from each of the two
monomers that participate in the interaction are labeled as chain A
or chain B. The overall contribution of each residue to the binding
energy of the interaction is a function of both the electrostatic
interactions including hydrogen bonds and salt bridges, and the Van
der Waals force which is related to the buried surface area
(BSA).
[1029] FIG. 18 show the area on both TL1A and 1D1 buried by each
pair of interacting residues. Tables 20, 21, 22 and 23 summarize
the data from FIG. 18, separated into CDR regions of the heavy and
light chains.

[1030] There are 3 key residues in the epitope having buried
surface area greater than 100 .ANG..sup.2. These are tyrosine 118
(Y118) on TL1A chain A or monomer A, and glutamic Acid 52 (E52) and
leucine 53 (L53) on TL1A chain B or monomer B. Arginine 33, on
chain B, also has a high buried surface area, of 93.4 .ANG.2. These
residues define important interactions on both sides of the
receptor binding cleft.
[1031] There are 9 direct hydrogen bonds (formed by the residues:
Y118, S149, R33, E50, E52, A56, and Y168), 4 water mediated
hydrogen bonds (M147, R33, and L55) and 1 salt bridge (E50) visible
in the crystal structure of the TL1A-1D1 complex. These are listed
in Table 24. The introduction of additional hydrogen bonding and
salt-bridge interactions were responsible for most of the
improvement seen in affinity optimized versions of 1 D1.

[1035] The paratope on antibody 1D1 when bound to TL1A lies almost
entirely in its heavy chain. Heavy chain CDR-H1 and CDR-H2 regions
contact both TL1A chains. In particular, 1D1 heavy chain tyrosine
31 and tyrosine 53 make extensive contacts with both TL1A monomers.
Heavy chain CDR-H3 makes extensive contacts with only one TL1A
monomer. There are also two significant interactions between the
Framework 3 loop of 1D1 and TL1A. Although it makes many fewer
contacts than the heavy chain, the light chain of 1D1 does play a
part in the interaction with TL1A. The paratope residues of
antibody 1D1 are listed in Table 28.

Example 17: Mapping Binding Epitope of TL1A by Antibody 1D1
1.31
[1036] Analysis of the Co-Crystal Structure of TL1A with 1.31
[1037] The crystal structure of the complex of TL1A with the
antibody 1D1 1.31, was also solved. The binding mode of 1D1 1.31 is
essentially the same as that of its parental antibody. There are
three sequence differences between 1D1 and 1D1 1.31. The change
from serine to aspartic acid at heavy chain residue 28 was
suggested by the above-described computational analysis of the
1D1:TL1A complex crystal structure. The serine hydroxyl in the 1D1
complex has no appropriate hydrogen bonding partners (FIG. 11).
Replacement with aspartic acid allows hydrogen bonding to TL1A
threonine 122 and formation of a salt bridge with TL1A lysine 113.
There is an additional conformational change of some surrounding
residues so that TL1A tyrosine 118, which faced outwards in the
1D1-TL1A complex, is pointed inwards toward the center of the
epitope in the 1D1 1.31 complex.
[1038] The change from asparagine to histidine at heavy chain
position 58 was found from a phage-display affinity optimization
approach. Histidine 122 was postulated to make a stronger
electrostatic interaction with TL1A glutamic acid 52 (FIG. 12).
[1039] The structural basis for any improvement in binding due to
the substitution of alanine for serine at antibody heavy chain
position 100B is less clear. The original serine does not have a
clear hydrogen bonding partner. Without wishing to be bound by any
particular theory, it may be that removal of the serine hydroxyl by
substitution with alanine stabilizes the complex by eliminating a
buried polar group with unsatisfied hydrogen bond donor and
acceptor atoms.
[1040] The full list of interactions between 1D1 1.31 and TL1A are
shown in FIG. 19 and Tables 29-38. The water-mediated hydrogen
bonds seen in the structure with 1D1 are not visible in the
structure with 1D1 1.31. This may be due to the lower resolution of
the latter structure. Despite its tighter binding, the total buried
surface area due to antibody binding is somewhat lower for 1D1 1.31
(877 .ANG..sup.2) than 1D1 (1018 .ANG..sup.2). Much of this
difference is due to the conformational change involving TL1A
tyrosine 118 described above. Without wishing to be bound to any
particular theory, the enhanced binding of 1D1 1.31 may be due to
the improved electrostatic interactions of heavy chain residues 28
and 58.
[1041] There are 11 direct hydrogen bonds (formed by the residues:
T122, S149, E50, E52, A56, Y168, T169, and E171), and 3 salt
bridges (K113, E50, E52) visible in the crystal structure of the
TL1A-1D1 complex. These are listed in Table 29. The introduction of
additional hydrogen bonding and salt-bridge interactions appear to
be responsible for most of the affinity improvement seen over
1D1.

Example 18: Formulation of the TL1A Antibody 1D1 1.31
[1043] The antibody 1D1 1.31 will be provided as a powder for
solution for injection in dosage strength of 100 mg/vial. The drug
product is supplied in a 6 mL type 1 clear glass vial, sealed with
a coated rubber stopper and flip-off aluminum seal. The drug
product is designed to be reconstituted in either full volume with
2.2 mL of sterile Water for Injection (sWFI) to allow for
intravenous administration (IV) or in approximately half volume
with 1.0 mL of sWFI to allow for intravenous (IV) administration or
subcutaneous (SC) administration. The formulation is 10 mM
histidine, 5% sucrose, 0.01% polysorbate-80 pH 5.8 as a lyophilized
powder and is 10 mM histidine, 5% sucrose, 0.01% polysorbate-80
pH5.8 when reconstituted in full volume and is 20 mM histidine, 10%
sucrose, 0.02% polysorbate-80 pH 5.8 when reconstituted in half
volume.
[1044] All components used in the manufacture of the drug product
and their functions are provided in Table 38 below.

Overfill
[1045] To ensure that 2 mL volume can be withdrawn from the vial
after full volume reconstitution and 1 mL volume can be withdrawn
from the vial after half volume reconstitution, there is an
overfill of 0.4 mL. There is no manufacturing overage.
[1046] Antibody 1D1 1.31 drug product is formulated at a
concentration of 50 mg/mL and 2.4 mL is filled into each vial for
lyophilization. Prior to dosing, the drug product is reconstituted
to either full volume or half volume to accommodate different
injection volumes and concentrations. For full volume
reconstitution, 2.2 mL of sterile water for injection is added to
the vial resulting in a reconstituted total volume of approximately
2.4 mL, of which 2.0 mL can be withdrawn for dosing. The full
volume reconstitution is suitable for intravenous (IV)
administration. For half volume reconstitution, 1.0 mL of sterile
water for injection is added to the vial resulting in a
reconstituted total volume of approximately 1.2 mL, of which 1.0 mL
can be withdrawn for dosing. The half volume reconstitution is
suitable for either intravenous (IV) administration or subcutaneous
(SC) administration. Reconstitution volumes added to the vial for
both full volume and half volume reconstitution take into account
the volume of the lyophilized cake. Antibody 1D1 1.31 drug product
release and stability testing are executed after full volume
reconstitution with 2.2 mL of sterile water for injection.
[1047] The choice of the excipients for the lyophile formulation
was made to achieve an appropriate solution, upon reconstitution,
for IV infusion and SC injection with a stability profile that will
allow an extended drug product shelf-life and robustness with
respect to temperature excursions. In addition, the formulation is
designed to be robust with respect to freeze and thaw cycles of the
drug substance.
[1048] The choice of histidine with sucrose and polysorbate 80 at
pH 5.8 was based on early phase formulation development work.
Polysorbate 80 has been added to the 1D1 1.31 formulation to reduce
the potential for aggregate formation. Sucrose was selected for its
stabilizing effect for lyophilization and storage stability. The
amount of sucrose chosen for the formulation targets an isotonic
solution when reconstituted in half volume.
[1049] Development studies were performed to evaluate
administration component compatibility and hold times that support
proposed clinical study designs. The conclusion of these studies is
that the dosage form is compatible with administration components
to be used in the proposed clinical studies and is stable during
dose preparation and administration.
Example 19: Binding Specificity of of Anti-TL1A Antibody Clone 1D1
1.31 to TL1A and Homologs
[1050] The goal of these studies was to evaluate the binding
specificity of 1D1 1.31 for human TL1A (TNFSF15) versus its closest
human homologues: TNFSF6 (FAS Ligand); TNFSF10 (TRAIL); TNFSF14
(LIGHT); TNF-.beta.; TNF-.alpha.; and lymphotoxin-.beta. isoforms;
which are 36%, 35%, 31%, 30%, 29% and 25% identical to TL1A
respectively.
Materials and Methods
[1051] 1D1 1.31 binding selectivity was evaluated in plate-based
ELISA assays.
[1052] To test binding of 1D1 1.31 to each cytokine, each cytokine
and TL1A were tested separately in a 96 well plate. All conditions
were performed in duplicate. The first 6 rows of each plate were
coated with the test article cytokine, and the last two rows were
coated with TL1A as a positive control. Rows 1 and 2 were duplicate
rows where the test article cytokine was tested for binding to
increasing concentrations of its corresponding anti-cytokine
positive control antibody. Rows 3 and 4 were duplicate rows tested
against increasing concentrations of the anti-TL1A isotype control
antibody 8.8; rows 5 through 8 were tested against increasing
concentrations of the anti-TL1A antibody 1D1 1.31 (5 and 6
duplicate rows containing the cytokine test article and 7 and 8
duplicate rows containing TL1A as positive control for the
anti-TL1A antibody). The experiment for each cytokine was repeated
three times.
[1053] Briefly, plates were coated with cytokine by adding 50 .mu.L
of a 1 .mu.g/mL solution of cytokine in PBS to each well (rows 1-6
were coated with test article cytokine and rows 7 and 8 were coated
with TL1A) (TNFSF6, TNFSF10, TNFSF14, and TNF-.alpha. from R&D
systems, Human Lymphotoxin .alpha.2-.beta.1, and Lymphotoxin
.alpha.1-.beta.2 purchased from Sigma, Human TNF-.beta. from
Peprotech). Plates were incubated overnight at 4.degree. C. After
washing the plates three times (3.times.) with 300 .mu.L PBST using
a plate washer (model ELx405; BioTek), plates were blocked by
incubating for 1 hour at room temperature with 300 .mu.L of
blocking buffer (PBST+0.5% BSA) in each well. Plates were washed
3.times. with PBST as above prior to addition of 50 .mu.L of the
corresponding antibody solution (as indicated above for the various
rows) at a starting concentration of 25 .mu.g/mL (followed by 1:5
subsequent dilutions in PBST+0.5% BSA for a total of 11 antibody
concentrations ranging from 25 .mu.g/mL to 2.times.10.sup.-6
.mu.g/mL) and the PBST only control. Plates were incubated for 1
hour at room temperature and then washed five times with 300 .mu.L
of PBST using the plate washer, followed by addition of 50 .mu.L of
1:5000 anti-human IgG HRP (from Jackson Immunoresearch)(for
detection of anti-TL1A; isotype control 8.8 or anti-TNF-.alpha.
infliximab antibody); or 1:8000 Streptavidin HRP (from
Pierce/Thermo Scientific) (for detection of biotinylated anti-human
TNFSF6, TNFSF10, TNFSF14 or TNF-.beta., all from R&D systems);
or 1:5000 anti-mouse IgG HRP (R&D systems)(for anti-lymphotoxin
detection) and incubation for 1 hour at room temperature. Plates
were then washed 5 times with PBST using the plate washer. 50 .mu.L
of the horse radish peroxidase substrate TMB1 were added to each
well and plates incubated for 5 minutes at room temperature prior
to addition of 50 .mu.L of stop solution (0.18M H.sub.2SO.sub.4)
(TMB1 from Fisher). Plates were then read at 450 nm in a plate
reader (Envision; Perkin Elmer)
[1054] Antibody binding curves were generated by plotting the
Optical Density at 450 nm values against the log of antibody
concentrations. EC.sub.50 values (for 1D1 1.31 binding to TL1A or
cytokine antibody binding to its corresponding cytokine) were
determined from these graphs using GraphPad Prism.RTM. (version
5.02, GraphPad Software, Inc., San Diego, Calif.) and nonlinear
regression curve fits and a sigmoidal log of agonist (three
parameters) dose response model.
Results
[1055] Anti-TL1A 1D1 1.31 did not bind to any of the closest TL1A
homologue-cytokines tested, but it bound to TL1A in the same plate
in which the cytokine homologues of TL1A were tested. Each cytokine
tested bound to its corresponding anti-cytokine specific antibody
except for lymphotoxin for which binding was detected only at very
high antibody concentrations of the anti-lymphotoxin antibody.
[1056] FIG. 20 shows the experimental results for testing
selectivity of binding of 1D1 1.31 to the closest homologue of
TL1A, TNFSF6 (n=6; 3 independent experiments in duplicate). TNFSF6
bound to the anti-TNFSF6 antibody (circle) but it did not bind to
anti-TL1A 1D1 1.31 (upward triangle). TL1A bound to 1D1 1.31. This
plot is a representative plot for all other cytokines tested except
for lymphotoxin which binding to its specific anti-lymphotoxin
antibody only occurred at high antibody concentrationsa.
[1057] Table 39 shows the EC.sub.50 values obtained for each
cytokine experiment (n=6; 3 independent experiments in duplicate)
for binding of anti-TL1A 1D1 1.31 to TL1A and for the anti-cytokine
antibody binding to each corresponding cytokine in each plate.
TABLE-US-00039 TABLE 39 Summarizes the EC50 values obtained for

Conclusion
[1058] 1D1 1.31 is selective for binding to human TL1A and does not
detectably bind to any of the closest homologues of TL1A: TNFSF6,
TNFSF10, TNFSF14, TNF-.beta., TNF-.alpha., Lymphotoxin

Example 20: Inhibition of TL1A:DR3 Interaction Using Anti-TL1A
Antibody 1D1 1.31
Aim
[1059] The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ability of the
anti-TL1A antibody 1D1 1.31 to inhibit binding of TL1A to its
receptor DR3 in DR3-expressing HEK293 cells.
Materials and Methods
[1060] DR3-transfected HEK293 cells were plated in a 96 round-well
plate at cell density of 100,000 cells per well in PBS 4% FCS and
incubated for 15 minutes at 4.degree. C. with 10 .mu.g/mL of
biotinylated TL1A and increasing concentrations of the anti-TL1A
antibody 1D1 1.31 or its isotype control (8.8 IgG1 3m) in the
concentration range from 0.5 .mu.g/mL to 250 .mu.g/mL in 2 fold
dilutions for 10 concentrations. As a positive control, cells were
incubated with biotinylated TL1A without any antibody. In a
parallel experiment biotinylated TL1A was also incubated with
untransfected parental HEK293 cells and demonstrated to have no
binding (data not shown).
[1061] Following this 15 minute incubation, cells were centrifuged
at 485 g, the supernatant was aspirated, and the cells were
resuspended in a solution of Streptavidin-PE (BD Biosciences)
(1:500 dilution in PBS/fetal calf serum (FCS)). The cells were then
incubated for 15 minutes at 4.degree. C. Following incubation,
cells were washed 3 times with the same buffer, resuspended in 200
.mu.L of the same buffer and binding of TL1A examined by flow
cytometric analysis on an LSR Fortessa cytometer (BD
Biosciences).
Data Analysis
[1062] Data was analyzed with FlowJo software.
[1063] Following identification of singlet cells, the geometric
mean of the cell population's fluorescent intensity for PE was
measured. This is a measurement of how much Streptavidin-PE is on
the cells, which should only bind TL1A-biotin. The geometric mean
of unstained cells was subtracted from all values as a background.
The streptavidin alone control background was similar to the
background of the unstained cells.
[1064] These corrected geometric mean values were plotted against
log of Ab concentration and IC.sub.50 was calculated with GraphPad
Prism software.
Results
[1065] Biotinylated TL1A was shown to bind to DR3-HEK293
transfected cells (but not to untransfected cells) and this binding
was completely inhibited by the anti-TL1A antibody 1D1 1.31 (FIG.
21). The isotype control antibody 8.8 IgG1 3m did not show any
inhibition. 1D1 1.31 inhibited binding of 10 .mu.g/mL of TL1A with
IC.sub.50 value of 18.68 .mu.g/mL.
Conclusion
[1066] Biotinylated TL1A was shown to bind to DR3-HEK293
transfected cells (but not to untransfected cells) and this binding
was completely inhibited by the anti-TL1A antibody 1D1 1.31 but not
by the isotype control antibody 8.8 IgG1 3m. 1D1 1.31 inhibited
binding of 10 .mu.g/mL of biotinylated TL1A with IC.sub.50 value of
18.68 .mu.g/mL.
Example 21: Thermal Stability of Representative Antibodies
Aim
[1067] The aim was to characterize the anti-TL1A antibodies
generated by affinity maturation and structure-based design with
respect to thermal stability and to confirm that the stability of
these antibodies was not affected by the mutations.
Methods
[1068] Differential Scanning calometry was performed essentially as
described in King et al. (2011), Protein Sci., 20 (9): 1546-1557,
which is incorporated herein by reference. Briefly, antibody
samples were diluted to 0.1 mg/mL in PBS. Sypro Orange was diluted
from its original 5000.times. concentration to a working
concentration of 2.5.times.. The total volume of 210 .mu.L was
split into four wells in a PCR microwell plate and heated from 20
to 95.degree. C. at 1C per minute. Fluorescence was collected using
the SYBR filters. Following data fitting to three Gaussians, the Tm
values of each unfolding transition could be determined, as well as
the onset of unfolding.
Results
[1069] Table 43 shows the transition temperatures of various
mutated antibodies, compared with the parental antibody (1D1).

[1070] T1%, or the temperature at which the protein was 1% unfolded
or the onset of unfolding, was calculated, also as described in
King et al. (ibid). Each melting temperature refers to the melting
of a different key interface. In a canonical antibody, TM3 is the
temperature at which the interface of two CH3 domains melts, TM1 is
the temperature at which the interface of the two CH2 domains melts
and TM2 is the temperature at which the interface of the heavy and
light chain melts.
Conclusion
[1071] All antibodies tested were stable, with a Tm1>65.degree.
C. and T1% of greater than 50.degree. C. Variations in thermal
stability could be seen in the Tm2, corresponding to the Fab
domain.
Example 22: High Concentration Stability Test of Anti-TL1A
Antibodies
Aim
[1072] Stability of biological drugs is a very important
characteristic to ensure that the therapeutic can be formulated to
maintain its safety and potency for a defined period of time. The
long-term stability of the anti-TL1A antibodies of the present
invention were tested.
Methods
[1073] The samples of antibodies 1D1 1.27, 1D1 1.31, and 1D1 1.32
were were concentrated in Amicon Ultra 4 mL and Vivaspin 500 spin
concentrators with 30 kDa cutoff membranes. When the final volumes
had been reached, typically .about.30 .mu.L, the concentration of
all samples was measured using a Nanodrop after 10-fold dilution.
Samples were adjusted to .about.150 mg/mL, then placed in SEC vials
with 15 .mu.L mineral oil overlays, and placed either at room
temperature or at 4.degree. C. Samples were measured weekly for
formation of aggregates. SEC runs consisted of 1 .mu.L injections
onto a TOSOH GSK-300 column, with PBS running buffer, flow rate 0.5
mL/min. Recovery was calculated using the area under the curve.
Results and Discussion
[1074] Samples were concentrated to 150 mg/mL, and good agreement
was seen between Nanodrop and SEC recovery numbers. After 12 weeks
at room temperature or 4.degree. C., less than 2% aggregation was
seen in all samples except for Antibody 1D1 1.32, which had started
to increase in aggregation at -6 weeks and reached approximately
7.5% aggregation after 12 weeks. Overall, therefore, these
antibodies appear as stable, with all except 1D1 1.32 antibody
exhibiting less than 5% aggregation at high concentration after 12
weeks at room temperature.
Example 23: Efficacy of Anti-TL1A Antibodies in House Dust Mite
(HDM)-Induced Allergic Airway Disease Model
Background
[1075] DR3, also known as TNFRSF25, is a death domain-containing
tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-family receptor expressed on various
subsets of lymphoid cells. TL1A, the TNF-family ligand for DR3, is
expressed by myeloid cells, e.g. dendritic cells, and contributes
to the accumulation of lymphocytes into inflamed tissues as well as
the release of cytokines involved in type-17 and type-2 immune
responses [Meylan, F. et al. (2008) The TNF-family receptor DR3 is
essential for diverse T cell-mediated inflammatory diseases.
Immunity 29, 79-89]
Materials and Methods
[1076] All in-vivo experiments were conducted in accordance to
protocols approved by Pfizer's Institutional Animal Care and Use
Committee. The murine model of house dust mite (HDM)-induced
allergic airway disease was previously described in Fitz L J et al.
Vol. 46 (2012), pp. 71-79. Briefly, 8-12 week old BALB/c female
mice were purchased from Taconic Farms (Hudson, N.Y.). On Days 0,
7, and 14 of the study, mice were anesthetized with isoflurane and
received 100 .mu.g HDM extract instilled intratracheally
(Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, Greer Laboratories, Lenoir, N.C.).
Anti-TL1A antibodies (20 mg/kg, clone 1D1 murine IgG1-4mut),
anti-Eimeria tenella IgG1 isotype control antibodies, or vehicle
(saline) were injected intraperitoneally on days 0, 2, 4, 7, 9, 11,
14 and 16 of the study. All animals were euthanized by CO2
asphyxiation on day 17 and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid
samples were collected to assess pulmonary inflammation.
Statistical analysis was performed using a Mann-Whitney U test.
Differences between groups were considered significant for p
value<0.05.
Results
[1077] Modulation of HDM-induced allergic airway inflammation by
anti-TL1A treatment. Total BAL cellularity was determined using a
Cell-Dyn 3700 analyzer (Abbott Laboratories, Abbott Park, Ill.),
while differential cell counts were obtained by manually evaluating
cell populations on cytospin slides stained by the Diff-Quik
method. Data represent mean.+-.SEM for each group, 9-10
animals/group. When mice were treated 3 times per week by
intraperitoneal injections of anti-TL1A antibodies, total BAL
cellularity was significantly decreased compared to vehicle-treated
animals (p=0.0021). FIG. 22 shows that, following 3 weekly
intratracheal challenges with HDM, mice developed robust airway
inflammation dominated by eosinophilia, although BAL lymphocyte,
macrophage and neutrophil numbers were also increased. In contrast
with control IgG1, administration of the 1D1 antibody resulted in a
significant reduction in total BAL cellularity [FIG. 22(a)], the
number of BAL Eosinophils [FIG. 22(b)] (p<0.0001, compared to
vehicle-treated animals), BAL lymphocytes [FIG. 22(c)] (p=0.0285),
and BAL macrophages [FIG. 22(d)] (p=0.0207). BAL neutrophil numbers
did not appear to be significantly modulated by anti-TL1A treatment
[FIG. 22(e)], although it is worth noting that BAL neutrophils
represent a small cell population in this model.
Conclusion
[1078] Systemic anti-TL1A treatment used in a murine model of
repeated airway challenges with HDM significantly alleviated
allergic airway inflammation, including eosinophilia.
