FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0003] The field of the invention generally relates to
glucocorticoid receptor agonist immunoconjugates, and methods of
making and using the same, e.g., to treat autoimmune or
inflammatory diseases.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0004] Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNFa) plays a central role in
the pathophysiology of several human disorders, and anti-TNFa
agents (e.g., adalimumab, etanercept, and infliximab) have
clinically validated therapeutic utility in the treatment of
autoimmune and inflammatory disorders, such as rheumatoid
arthritis, psoriasis and inflammatory bowel disease. Despite their
success in the clinic, anti-TNFa biologics are still limited in the
maximal efficacy they can achieve in patients, necessitating the
identification and development of more potent and effective
therapeutics. Patients treated with anti-TNFa biologics may also
develop an immunogenic response to the therapeutic thus limiting
its effectiveness. Therefore anti-TNFa therapies with lower
immunogenicity and high efficacy would be useful for further
controlling disease.
[0005] Synthetic glucocorticoid receptor agonists (e.g.,
dexamethasone, prednisolone, and budesonide) are a potent class of
small molecules used in the treatment of inflammatory disorders,
but their utility in the chronic treatment of disease is limited
due to severe side effects. Several approaches to retain the
anti-inflammatory efficacy of synthetic glucocorticoids while
sparing the unwanted toxicities have been described (Rosen, J and
Miner, J N Endocrine Reviews 26: 452-64 (2005)). However these
methodologies have met with little success. There is a need in the
field of autoimmune and inflammatory disease therapeutics to
develop therapeutics with enhanced efficacy and longer duration of
action compared to anti-TNF antibodies and with minimal unwanted
effects.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0037] Provided herein are glucocorticoid receptor agonist
immunoconjugates, glucocorticoid receptor agonists, and methods of
making and using the same.
I. Definitions
[0038] To facilitate an understanding of the present disclosure, a
number of terms and phrases are defined below.
[0039] The term "anti-TNF alpha protein" refers to proteins that
are capable of (i) binding to TNF alpha and (ii) inhibiting binding
of soluble TNF-alpha to cell surface TNF receptors (p55 and/or p75)
and/or lysing surface TNF alpha or TNF alpha receptor expressing
cells in vitro in the presence of complement. Anti-TNF alpha
proteins include, for example, anti-TNF antibodies or
antigen-binding fragments thereof (e.g., adalimumab or infliximab)
as well as soluble TNF receptors (e.g., etanercept).
[0040] As used herein, the terms "antibody" and "antibodies" are
terms of art and can be used interchangeably herein and refer to a
molecule with an antigen-binding site that specifically binds an
antigen.
[0041] The term "antibody" means an immunoglobulin molecule that
recognizes and specifically binds to a target, such as a protein,
polypeptide, peptide, carbohydrate, polynucleotide, lipid, or
combinations of the foregoing through at least one antigen
recognition site within the variable region of the immunoglobulin
molecule. As used herein, the term "antibody" encompasses intact
polyclonal antibodies, intact monoclonal antibodies, chimeric
antibodies, humanized antibodies, human antibodies, fusion proteins
comprising an antibody, and any other modified immunoglobulin
molecule so long as the antibodies exhibit the desired biological
activity. An antibody can be of any the five major classes of
immunoglobulins: IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM, or subclasses
(isotypes) thereof (e.g. IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1 and IgA2),
based on the identity of their heavy-chain constant domains
referred to as alpha, delta, epsilon, gamma, and mu, respectively.
The different classes of immunoglobulins have different and well
known subunit structures and three-dimensional configurations.
Antibodies can be naked or conjugated to other molecules such as
toxins, radioisotopes, etc. As used herein, the term "antibody"
encompasses bispecific and multispecific antibodies.
[0042] The term "antibody fragment" refers to a portion of an
intact antibody. An "antigen-binding fragment" refers to a portion
of an intact antibody that binds to an antigen. An antigen-binding
fragment can contain the antigenic determining variable regions of
an intact antibody. Examples of antibody fragments include, but are
not limited to Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, and Fv fragments, linear
antibodies, and single chain antibodies. An "antigen-binding
fragment" can be a bispecific or multispecific antigen-binding
fragment.
[0043] A "blocking" antibody or an "antagonist" antibody is one
which inhibits or reduces biological activity of the antigen it
binds, such as TNF-alpha. In some embodiments, blocking antibodies
or antagonist antibodies substantially or completely inhibit the
biological activity of the antigen. The biological activity can be
reduced by 10%, 20%, 30%, 50%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, or even
100%.
[0044] The term "anti-TNF-alpha antibody" or "an antibody that
binds to TNF-alpha" refers to an antibody that is capable of
binding TNF-alpha with sufficient affinity such that the antibody
is useful as a diagnostic and/or therapeutic agent in targeting
TNF-alpha. The extent of binding of an anti-TNF-alpha antibody to
an unrelated, non-TNF-alpha protein can be less than about 10% of
the binding of the antibody to TNF-alpha as measured, e.g., by a
radioimmunoassay (RIA). In certain embodiments, an antibody that
binds to TNF-alpha has a dissociation constant (Kd) of .ltoreq.1
.mu.M, .ltoreq.100 nM, .ltoreq.10 nM, .ltoreq.1 nM, or .ltoreq.0.1
nM.
[0045] A "monoclonal" antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof
refers to a homogeneous antibody or antigen-binding fragment
population involved in the highly specific recognition and binding
of a single antigenic determinant, or epitope. This is in contrast
to polyclonal antibodies that typically include different
antibodies directed against different antigenic determinants. The
term "monoclonal" antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof
encompasses both intact and full-length monoclonal antibodies as
well as antibody fragments (such as Fab, Fab', F(ab')2, Fv), single
chain (scFv) mutants, fusion proteins comprising an antibody
portion, and any other modified immunoglobulin molecule comprising
an antigen recognition site. Furthermore, "monoclonal" antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof refers to such antibodies and
antigen-binding fragments thereof made in any number of manners
including but not limited to by hybridoma, phage selection,
recombinant expression, and transgenic animals.
[0046] The term "humanized" antibody or antigen-binding fragment
thereof refers to forms of non-human (e.g. murine) antibodies or
antigen-binding fragments that are specific immunoglobulin chains,
chimeric immunoglobulins, or fragments thereof that contain minimal
non-human (e.g., murine) sequences. Typically, humanized antibodies
or antigen-binding fragments thereof are human immunoglobulins in
which residues from the complementary determining region (CDR) are
replaced by residues from the CDR of a non-human species (e.g.
mouse, rat, rabbit, hamster) that have the desired specificity,
affinity, and capability ("CDR grafted") (Jones et al., Nature
321:522-525 (1986); Riechmann et al., Nature 332:323-327 (1988);
Verhoeyen et al., Science 239:1534-1536 (1988)). In some instances,
the Fv framework region (FR) residues of a human immunoglobulin are
replaced with the corresponding residues in an antibody or fragment
from a non-human species that has the desired specificity,
affinity, and capability. The humanized antibody or antigen-binding
fragment thereof can be further modified by the substitution of
additional residues either in the Fv framework region and/or within
the replaced non-human residues to refine and optimize antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof specificity, affinity, and/or
capability. In general, the humanized antibody or antigen-binding
fragment thereof will comprise substantially all of at least one,
and typically two or three, variable domains containing all or
substantially all of the CDR regions that correspond to the
non-human immunoglobulin whereas all or substantially all of the FR
regions are those of a human immunoglobulin consensus sequence. The
humanized antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof can also
comprise at least a portion of an immunoglobulin constant region or
domain (Fc), typically that of a human immunoglobulin. Examples of
methods used to generate humanized antibodies are described in U.S.
Pat. No. 5,225,539; Roguska et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., USA,
91(3):969-973 (1994), and Roguska et al., Protein Eng.
9(10):895-904 (1996). In some embodiments, a "humanized antibody"
is a resurfaced antibody.
[0047] A "variable region" of an antibody refers to the variable
region of the antibody light chain or the variable region of the
antibody heavy chain, either alone or in combination. The variable
regions of the heavy and light chain each consist of four framework
regions (FR) connected by three complementarity determining regions
(CDRs) also known as hypervariable regions. The CDRs in each chain
are held together in close proximity by the FRs and, with the CDRs
from the other chain, contribute to the formation of the
antigen-binding site of antibodies. There are at least two
techniques for determining CDRs: (1) an approach based on
cross-species sequence variability (i.e., Kabat et al. Sequences of
Proteins of Immunological Interest, (5th ed., 1991, National
Institutes of Health, Bethesda Md.)); and (2) an approach based on
crystallographic studies of antigen-antibody complexes (Al-lazikani
et al (1997) J. Molec. Biol. 273:927-948)). In addition,
combinations of these two approaches are sometimes used in the art
to determine CDRs.
[0048] The Kabat numbering system is generally used when referring
to a residue in the variable domain (approximately residues 1-107
of the light chain and residues 1-113 of the heavy chain) (e.g.,
Kabat et al., Sequences of Immunological Interest. 5th Ed. Public
Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md.
(1991)). Unless explicitly indicated otherwise, the numbering
system used herein is the Kabat numbering system.
[0049] The amino acid position numbering as in Kabat, refers to the
numbering system used for heavy chain variable domains or light
chain variable domains of the compilation of antibodies in Kabat et
al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Ed.
Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md.
(1991). Using this numbering system, the actual linear amino acid
sequence can contain fewer or additional amino acids corresponding
to a shortening of, or insertion into, a FR or CDR of the variable
domain. For example, a heavy chain variable domain can include a
single amino acid insert (residue 52a according to Kabat) after
residue 52 of H2 and inserted residues (e.g. residues 82a, 82b, and
82c, etc. according to Kabat) after heavy chain FR residue 82. The
Kabat numbering of residues can be determined for a given antibody
by alignment at regions of homology of the sequence of the antibody
with a "standard" Kabat numbered sequence. Chothia refers instead
to the location of the structural loops (Chothia and Lesk J. Mol.
Biol. 196:901-917 (1987)). The end of the Chothia CDR-H1 loop when
numbered using the Kabat numbering convention varies between H32
and H34 depending on the length of the loop (this is because the
Kabat numbering scheme places the insertions at H35A and H35B; if
neither 35A nor 35B is present, the loop ends at 32; if only 35A is
present, the loop ends at 33; if both 35A and 35B are present, the
loop ends at 34). The AbM hypervariable regions represent a
compromise between the Kabat CDRs and Chothia structural loops, and
are used by Oxford Molecular's AbM antibody modeling software.

[0050] In certain aspects, the CDRs of an antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof can be determined according to the
Chothia numbering scheme, which refers to the location of
immunoglobulin structural loops (see, e.g., Chothia C & Lesk A
M, (1987), J Mol Biol 196: 901-917; Al-Lazikani B et al., (1997) J
Mol Biol 273: 927-948; Chothia C et al., (1992) J Mol Biol 227:
799-817; Tramontano A et al., (1990) J Mol Biol 215(1): 175-82; and
U.S. Pat. No. 7,709,226). Typically, when using the Kabat numbering
convention, the Chothia CDR-H1 loop is present at heavy chain amino
acids 26 to 32, 33, or 34, the Chothia CDR-H2 loop is present at
heavy chain amino acids 52 to 56, and the Chothia CDR-H3 loop is
present at heavy chain amino acids 95 to 102, while the Chothia
CDR-L1 loop is present at light chain amino acids 24 to 34, the
Chothia CDR-L2 loop is present at light chain amino acids 50 to 56,
and the Chothia CDR-L3 loop is present at light chain amino acids
89 to 97. The end of the Chothia CDR-H1 loop when numbered using
the Kabat numbering convention varies between H32 and H34 depending
on the length of the loop (this is because the Kabat numbering
scheme places the insertions at H35A and H35B; if neither 35A nor
35B is present, the loop ends at 32; if only 35A is present, the
loop ends at 33; if both 35A and 35B are present, the loop ends at
34).
[0051] In certain aspects, the CDRs of an antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof can be determined according to the
IMGT numbering system as described in Lefranc M-P, (1999) The
Immunologist 7: 132-136 and Lefranc M-P et al., (1999) Nucleic
Acids Res 27: 209-212. According to the IMGT numbering scheme,
VH-CDR1 is at positions 26 to 35, VH-CDR2 is at positions 51 to 57,
VH-CDR3 is at positions 93 to 102, VL-CDR1 is at positions 27 to
32, VL-CDR2 is at positions 50 to 52, and VL-CDR3 is at positions
89 to 97.
[0052] In certain aspects, the CDRs of an antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof can be determined according to
MacCallum R M et al., (1996) J Mol Biol 262: 732-745. See also,
e.g., Martin A. "Protein Sequence and Structure Analysis of
Antibody Variable Domains," in Antibody Engineering, Kontermann and
Dubel, eds., Chapter 31, pp. 422-439, Springer-Verlag, Berlin
(2001).
[0053] In certain aspects, the CDRs of an antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof can be determined according to the
AbM numbering scheme, which refers AbM hypervariable regions which
represent a compromise between the Kabat CDRs and Chothia
structural loops, and are used by Oxford Molecular's AbM antibody
modeling software (Oxford Molecular Group, Inc.).
[0054] The term "human" antibody means an antibody produced by a
human or an antibody having an amino acid sequence corresponding to
an antibody produced by a human made using any technique known in
the art. This definition of a human antibody includes intact or
full-length antibodies, fragments thereof, and/or antibodies
comprising at least one human heavy and/or light chain polypeptide
such as, for example, an antibody comprising murine light chain and
human heavy chain polypeptides.
[0055] The term "chimeric" antibodies refers to antibodies wherein
the amino acid sequence of the immunoglobulin molecule is derived
from two or more species. Typically, the variable region of both
light and heavy chains corresponds to the variable region of
antibodies derived from one species of mammals (e.g. mouse, rat,
rabbit, etc.) with the desired specificity, affinity, and
capability while the constant regions are homologous to the
sequences in antibodies derived from another (usually human) to
avoid eliciting an immune response in that species.
[0056] The term "epitope" or "antigenic determinant" are used
interchangeably herein and refer to that portion of an antigen
capable of being recognized and specifically bound by a particular
antibody. When the antigen is a polypeptide, epitopes can be formed
both from contiguous amino acids and noncontiguous amino acids
juxtaposed by tertiary folding of a protein. Epitopes formed from
contiguous amino acids are typically retained upon protein
denaturing, whereas epitopes formed by tertiary folding are
typically lost upon protein denaturing. An epitope typically
includes at least 3, and more usually, at least 5 or 8-10 amino
acids in a unique spatial conformation.
[0057] "Binding affinity" generally refers to the strength of the
sum total of noncovalent interactions between a single binding site
of a molecule (e.g., an antibody) and its binding partner (e.g., an
antigen). Unless indicated otherwise, as used herein, "binding
affinity" refers to intrinsic binding affinity which reflects a 1:1
interaction between members of a binding pair (e.g., antibody and
antigen). The affinity of a molecule X for its partner Y can
generally be represented by the dissociation constant (Kd).
Affinity can be measured by common methods known in the art,
including those described herein. Low-affinity antibodies generally
bind antigen slowly and tend to dissociate readily, whereas
high-affinity antibodies generally bind antigen faster and tend to
remain bound longer. A variety of methods of measuring binding
affinity are known in the art, any of which can be used for
purposes of the present disclosure. Specific illustrative
embodiments are described in the following.
[0058] "Or better" when used herein to refer to binding affinity
refers to a stronger binding between a molecule and its binding
partner. "Or better" when used herein refers to a stronger binding,
represented by a smaller numerical Kd value. For example, an
antibody which has an affinity for an antigen of "0.6 nM or
better", the antibody's affinity for the antigen is <0.6 nM,
i.e. 0.59 nM, 0.58 nM, 0.57 nM etc. or any value less than 0.6
nM.
[0059] By "specifically binds," it is generally meant that an
antibody binds to an epitope via its antigen binding domain, and
that the binding entails some complementarity between the antigen
binding domain and the epitope. According to this definition, an
antibody is said to "specifically bind" to an epitope when it binds
to that epitope, via its antigen binding domain more readily than
it would bind to a random, unrelated epitope. The term
"specificity" is used herein to qualify the relative affinity by
which a certain antibody binds to a certain epitope. For example,
antibody "A" may be deemed to have a higher specificity for a given
epitope than antibody "B," or antibody "A" may be said to bind to
epitope "C" with a higher specificity than it has for related
epitope "D."
[0060] By "preferentially binds," it is meant that the antibody
specifically binds to an epitope more readily than it would bind to
a related, similar, homologous, or analogous epitope. Thus, an
antibody which "preferentially binds" to a given epitope would more
likely bind to that epitope than to a related epitope, even though
such an antibody may cross-react with the related epitope.
[0061] An antibody is said to "competitively inhibit" binding of a
reference antibody to a given epitope if the antibody
preferentially binds to that epitope or an overlapping epitope to
the extent that it blocks, to some degree, binding of the reference
antibody to the epitope. Competitive inhibition may be determined
by any method known in the art, for example, competition ELISA
assays. An antibody may be said to competitively inhibit binding of
the reference antibody to a given epitope by at least 90%, at least
80%, at least 70%, at least 60%, or at least 50%.
[0062] The phrase "substantially similar," or "substantially the
same", as used herein, denotes a sufficiently high degree of
similarity between two numeric values (generally one associated
with an antibody of the disclosure and the other associated with a
reference/comparator antibody) such that one of skill in the art
would consider the difference between the two values to be of
little or no biological and/or statistical significance within the
context of the biological characteristic measured by said values
(e.g., Kd values). The difference between said two values can be
less than about 50%, less than about 40%, less than about 30%, less
than about 20%, or less than about 10% as a function of the value
for the reference/comparator antibody.
[0063] A polypeptide, antibody, polynucleotide, vector, cell, or
composition which is "isolated" is a polypeptide, antibody,
polynucleotide, vector, cell, or composition which is in a form not
found in nature. Isolated polypeptides, antibodies,
polynucleotides, vectors, cell or compositions include those which
have been purified to a degree that they are no longer in a form in
which they are found in nature. In some embodiments, an antibody,
polynucleotide, vector, cell, or composition which is isolated is
substantially pure.
[0064] As used herein, "substantially pure" refers to material
which is at least 50% pure (i.e., free from contaminants), at least
90% pure, at least 95% pure, at least 98% pure, or at least 99%
pure.
[0065] The term "immunoconjugate," "conjugate," "antibody-drug
conjugate," or "ADC" as used herein refers to a compound or a
derivative thereof that is linked to protein such as a cell binding
agent (e.g., an anti-TNF-alpha antibody or fragment thereof) and is
defined by a generic formula: (SM-L-Q).sub.n-A, wherein SM=radical
derived from a small-molecule glucocorticoid receptor agonist,
e.g., a glucocorticosteroid, L=linker, Q=heterobifunctional group,
a heterotrifunctional group, or is absent, and A=a protein (e.g.,
an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof, an anti-TNF
protein, an anti-TNF-alpha antibody or fragment thereof, a soluble
receptor, or a soluble TNF receptor), and n=1-10. Immunoconjugates
can also be defined by the generic formula in reverse order:
A-(Q-L-SM).sub.n. By way of illustration, the following generic
formula shows a immunoconjugate having a dipeptide (Ala-Ala) linker
and succinimide thioether-based heterobifunctional group:
##STR00001##
[0066] In the present disclosure, the term "linker" refers to any
chemical moiety capable of linking a protein, e.g., antibody,
antibody fragment (e.g., antigen binding fragments) or functional
equivalent to a glucocorticosteroid. Linkers may be susceptible to
cleavage (a "cleavable linker") thereby facilitating release of the
glucocorticosteroid. For example, such cleavable linkers may be
susceptible to acid-induced cleavage, photo-induced cleavage,
peptidase-induced cleavage, esterase-induced cleavage, and
disulfide bond cleavage, at conditions under which the
glucocorticosteroid and/or the antibody remains active.
Alternatively, linkers may be substantially resistant to cleavage
(a "noncleavable linker").
[0067] In the present disclosure, non-cleavable linkers are any
chemical moiety capable of linking a glucocorticosteroid to an
antibody in a stable, covalent manner and does not fall off under
the categories listed above for cleaveable linkers. Thus,
non-cleavable linkers are substantially resistant to acid-induced
cleavage, photo-induced cleavage, peptidase-induced cleavage,
esterase-induced cleavage and disulfide bond cleavage. Furthermore,
non-cleavable refers to the ability of the chemical bond in the
linker or adjoining to the linker to withstand cleavage induced by
an acid, photolabile-cleaving agent, a peptidase, an esterase, or a
chemical or physiological compound that cleaves a disulfide bond,
at conditions under which a glucocorticosteroid and/or the antibody
does not lose its activity.
[0068] Some cleavable linkers are cleaved by peptidases ("peptidase
cleavable linkers"). Only certain peptides are readily cleaved
inside or outside cells, see e.g. Trout et al., 79 Proc. Natl.
Acad. Sci. USA, 626-629 (1982) and Umemoto et al. 43 Int. J.
Cancer, 677-684 (1989). Furthermore, peptides are composed of
.alpha.-amino acid units and peptidic bonds, which chemically are
amide bonds between the carboxylate of one amino acid and the amino
group of a second amino acid. Other amide bonds, such as the bond
between a carboxylate and the .alpha.-amino acid group of lysine,
are understood not to be peptidic bonds and are considered
non-cleavable.
[0069] Some linkers are cleaved by esterases ("esterase cleavable
linkers"). Only certain esters can be cleaved by esterases present
inside or outside of cells. Esters are formed by the condensation
of a carboxylic acid and an alcohol. Simple esters are esters
produced with simple alcohols, such as aliphatic alcohols, and
small cyclic and small aromatic alcohols.
[0070] In some embodiments, the cleavable linker component may
comprise a peptide comprising one to ten amino acid residues. In
these embodiments, the peptide allows for cleavage of the linker by
a protease, thereby facilitating release of the glucocorticosteroid
upon exposure to intracellular proteases, such as lysosomal enzymes
(Doronina et al. (2003) Nat. Biotechnol. 21:778-784). Exemplary
peptides include, but are not limited to, dipeptides, tripeptides,
tetrapeptides, and pentapeptides. Exemplary dipeptides include, but
are not limited to, alanine-alanine (ala-ala), valine-citrulline
(vc or val-cit), alanine-phenylalanine (af or ala-phe);
phenylalanine-lysine (fk or phe-lys); phenylalanine-homolysine
(phe-homolys); and N-methyl-valine-citrulline (Me-val-cit).
Exemplary tripeptides include, but are not limited to,
glycine-valine-citrulline (gly-val-cit) and glycine-glycine-glycine
(gly-gly-gly).
[0071] A peptide may comprise naturally-occurring and/or
non-natural amino acid residues. The term "naturally-occurring
amino acid" refer to Ala, Asp, Cys, Glu, Phe, Gly, His, He, Lys,
Leu, Met, Asn, Pro, Gin, Arg, Ser, Thr, Val, Trp, and Tyr.
"Non-natural amino acids" (i.e., amino acids do not occur
naturally) include, by way of non-limiting example, homoserine,
homoarginine, citrulline, phenylglycine, taurine, iodotyrosine,
seleno-cysteine, norleucine ("Nle"), norvaline ("Nva"),
beta-alanine, L- or D-naphthalanine, ornithine ("Orn"), and the
like. Peptides can be designed and optimized for enzymatic cleavage
by a particular enzyme, for example, a tumor-associated protease,
cathepsin B, C and D, or a plasmin protease.
[0072] Amino acids also include the D-forms of natural and
non-natural amino acids. "D-" designates an amino acid having the
"D" (dextrorotary) configuration, as opposed to the configuration
in the naturally occurring ("L-") amino acids. Natural and
non-natural amino acids can be purchased commercially (Sigma
Chemical Co., Advanced Chemtech) or synthesized using methods known
in the art.
[0073] In the present disclosure, the term "glucocorticosteroid"
refers to naturally-occurring or synthetic steroid hormones that
interact with glucocorticoid receptors. Non-limiting exemplary
glucocorticosteroids include:
##STR00002## ##STR00003##
By way of example, the A-, B-, C-, and D-rings of the steroid
skeleton are marked for budesonide. Glucocorticosteroids are
described in WO 2009/069032.
[0074] A "radical of a glucocorticosteroid" is derived from the
removal of one or more hydrogen atoms from a parent
glucocorticosteroid. The removal of hydrogen atom(s) facilitates
the attachment of the parent glucocorticosteroid to a linker. In
one embodiment, the hydrogen atom is removed from any suitable
--NH.sub.2 group of the parent glucocorticosteroid. In another
embodiment, the hydrogen atom is removed from any suitable --OH
group of the parent glucocorticosteroid. In another embodiment, the
hydrogen atom is removed from any suitable a --SH group of the
parent glucocorticosteroid. In another embodiment, the hydrogen
atom is removed from any suitable --N(H)-- group of the parent
glucocorticosteroid. In another embodiment, the hydrogen atom is
removed from any suitable --CH.sub.3, --CH.sub.2-- or --CH.dbd.
group of the parent glucocorticosteroid. In one embodiment, the
"radical of a glucocorticosteroid" is a monovalent radical derived
from the removal of one hydrogen atom from a parent
glucocorticosteroid.
[0075] In the present disclosure, the term "heterobifunctional
group" or the term "heterotrifunctional group" refers to a chemical
moiety that connects a linker and protein, e.g., an antibody.
Heterobi- and tri-functional groups are characterized as having
different reactive groups at either end of the chemical moiety.
Non-limiting exemplary heterobifunctional groups include:
##STR00004##
A non-limiting exemplary heterotrifunctional group is:
##STR00005##
[0076] The term "drug antibody ratio" or "DAR" refers to the number
of SMs (i.e., radical derived from a small-molecule glucocorticoid
receptor agonist, e.g., a glucocorticosteroid) linked to A (i.e., a
protein, e.g., an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof, an
anti-TNF protein, an anti-TNF-alpha antibody or fragment thereof, a
soluble receptor, or a soluble TNF receptor). Thus, in the
immunoconjugate having the generic formula (SM-L-Q).sub.n-A, the
DAR is defined by the variable "n."
[0077] When referring to a compound having formula (SM-L-Q).sub.n-A
representing an individual immunoconjugate, the DAR refers to the
number of SMs linked to the individual A (e.g., n is an integer of
1 to 10).
[0078] When referring to a compound having formula (SM-L-Q).sub.n-A
representing a plurality of immunoconjugates, the DAR refers to the
average number of SMs linked to the As (e.g., n is an integer or
fraction of 1 to 10). Thus, by way of an example, a compound having
formula (SM-L-Q).sub.n-A comprising a first immunoconjugate with 3
SM per A and a second immunoconjugate with 4 SM per A would have a
DAR (i.e., an "n") of 3.5.
[0079] The term "subject" refers to any animal (e.g., a mammal),
including, but not limited to humans, non-human primates, rodents,
and the like, which is to be the recipient of a particular
treatment. Typically, the terms "subject" and "patient" are used
interchangeably herein in reference to a human subject.
[0080] The term "pharmaceutical formulation" refers to a
preparation which is in such form as to permit the biological
activity of the active ingredient to be effective, and which
contains no additional components which are unacceptably toxic to a
subject to which the formulation would be administered. The
formulation can be sterile.
[0081] An "effective amount" of an immunoconjugate or
glucocorticoid receptor agonist as disclosed herein is an amount
sufficient to carry out a specifically stated purpose. An
"effective amount" can be determined in relation to the stated
purpose.
[0082] The term "therapeutically effective amount" refers to an
amount of an immunoconjugate or glucocorticoid receptor agonist
effective to "treat" a disease or disorder in a subject or mammal.
A "prophylactically effective amount" refers to an amount effective
to achieve the desired prophylactic result.
[0083] Terms such as "treating" or "treatment" or "to treat" or
"alleviating" or "to alleviate" refer to therapeutic measures that
cure, slow down, lessen symptoms of, and/or halt progression of a
diagnosed pathologic condition or disorder. Thus, those in need of
treatment include those already diagnosed with or suspected of
having the disorder. Prophylactic or preventative measures refer to
measures that prevent and/or slow the development of a targeted
pathological condition or disorder. Thus, those in need of
prophylactic or preventative measures include those prone to have
the disorder and those in whom the disorder is to be prevented.
[0084] "Polynucleotide," or "nucleic acid," as used interchangeably
herein, refer to polymers 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 polymer
by DNA or RNA polymerase. A polynucleotide can comprise modified
nucleotides, such as methylated nucleotides and their analogs. If
present, modification to the nucleotide structure can be imparted
before or after assembly of the polymer. The sequence of
nucleotides can be interrupted by non-nucleotide components. A
polynucleotide can 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, cabamates, 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, ply-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 can be
replaced, for example, by phosphonate groups, phosphate groups,
protected by standard protecting groups, or activated to prepare
additional linkages to additional nucleotides, or can 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 can 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.-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 can 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.
[0085] The term "vector" means a construct, which is capable of
delivering, and optionally 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.
[0086] The terms "polypeptide," "peptide," and "protein" are used
interchangeably herein to refer to polymers of amino acids of any
length. The polymer can be linear or branched, it can comprise
modified amino acids, and it can be interrupted by non-amino acids.
The terms also encompass an amino acid polymer 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,
because the polypeptides of this disclosure are based upon
antibodies, in certain embodiments, the polypeptides can occur as
single chains or associated chains.
[0087] The terms "identical" or percent "identity" in the context
of two or more nucleic acids or polypeptides, refer to two or more
sequences or subsequences that are the same or have a specified
percentage of nucleotides or amino acid residues that are the same,
when compared and aligned (introducing gaps, if necessary) for
maximum correspondence, not considering any conservative amino acid
substitutions as part of the sequence identity. The percent
identity can be measured using sequence comparison software or
algorithms or by visual inspection. Various algorithms and software
are known in the art that can be used to obtain alignments of amino
acid or nucleotide sequences. One such non-limiting example of a
sequence alignment algorithm is the algorithm described in Karlin
et al, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., 87:2264-2268 (1990), as modified in
Karlin et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., 90:5873-5877 (1993), and
incorporated into the NBLAST and XBLAST programs (Altschul et al.,
Nucleic Acids Res., 25:3389-3402 (1991)). In certain embodiments,
Gapped BLAST can be used as described in Altschul et al., Nucleic
Acids Res. 25:3389-3402 (1997). BLAST-2, WU-BLAST-2 (Altschul et
al., Methods in Enzymology, 266:460-480 (1996)), ALIGN, ALIGN-2
(Genentech, South San Francisco, Calif.) or Megalign (DNASTAR) are
additional publicly available software programs that can be used to
align sequences. In certain embodiments, the percent identity
between two nucleotide sequences is determined using the GAP
program in GCG software (e.g., using a NWSgapdna.CMP matrix and a
gap weight of 40, 50, 60, 70, or 90 and a length weight of 1, 2, 3,
4, 5, or 6). In certain alternative embodiments, the GAP program in
the GCG software package, which incorporates the algorithm of
Needleman and Wunsch (J. Mol. Biol. (48):444-453 (1970)) can be
used to determine the percent identity between two amino acid
sequences (e.g., using either a Blossum 62 matrix or a PAM250
matrix, and a gap weight of 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, 6, or 4 and a length
weight of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5). Alternatively, in certain embodiments,
the percent identity between nucleotide or amino acid sequences is
determined using the algorithm of Myers and Miller (CABIOS, 4:11-17
(1989)). For example, the percent identity can be determined using
the ALIGN program (version 2.0) and using a PAM120 with residue
table, a gap length penalty of 12 and a gap penalty of 4.
Appropriate parameters for maximal alignment by particular
alignment software can be determined by one skilled in the art. In
certain embodiments, the default parameters of the alignment
software are used. In certain embodiments, the percentage identity
"X" of a first amino acid sequence to a second sequence amino acid
is calculated as 100.times.(Y/Z), where Y is the number of amino
acid residues scored as identical matches in the alignment of the
first and second sequences (as aligned by visual inspection or a
particular sequence alignment program) and Z is the total number of
residues in the second sequence. If the length of a first sequence
is longer than the second sequence, the percent identity of the
first sequence to the second sequence will be longer than the
percent identity of the second sequence to the first sequence.
[0088] As a non-limiting example, whether any particular
polynucleotide has a certain percentage sequence identity (e.g., is
at least 80% identical, at least 85% identical, at least 90%
identical, and in some embodiments, at least 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or
99% identical) to a reference sequence can, in certain embodiments,
be determined using the Bestfit program (Wisconsin Sequence
Analysis Package, Version 8 for Unix, Genetics Computer Group,

Bestfit uses the local homology algorithm of Smith and Waterman
(Advances in Applied Mathematics 2: 482 489 (1981)) to find the
best segment of homology between two sequences. When using Bestfit
or any other sequence alignment program to determine whether a
particular sequence is, for instance, 95% identical to a reference
sequence according to the present disclosure, the parameters are
set such that the percentage of identity is calculated over the
full length of the reference nucleotide sequence and that gaps in
homology of up to 5% of the total number of nucleotides in the
reference sequence are allowed.
[0089] In some embodiments, two nucleic acids or polypeptides of
the disclosure are substantially identical, meaning they have at
least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%,
and in some embodiments at least 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% nucleotide
or amino acid residue identity, when compared and aligned for
maximum correspondence, as measured using a sequence comparison
algorithm or by visual inspection. Identity can exist over a region
of the sequences that is at least about 10, about 20, about 40-60
residues in length or any integral value there between, and can be
over a longer region than 60-80 residues, for example, at least
about 90-100 residues, and in some embodiments, the sequences are
substantially identical over the full length of the sequences being
compared, such as the coding region of a nucleotide sequence for
example.
[0090] A "conservative amino acid substitution" is one in which one
amino acid residue is replaced with another amino acid residue
having a similar side chain. Families of amino acid residues having
similar side chains have been defined in the art, including basic
side chains (e.g., lysine, arginine, histidine), acidic side chains
(e.g., aspartic acid, glutamic acid), uncharged polar side chains
(e.g., glycine, asparagine, glutamine, serine, threonine, tyrosine,
cysteine), nonpolar side chains (e.g., alanine, valine, leucine,
isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, methionine, tryptophan),
beta-branched side chains (e.g., threonine, valine, isoleucine) and
aromatic side chains (e.g., tyrosine, phenylalanine, tryptophan,
histidine). For example, substitution of a phenylalanine for a
tyrosine is a conservative substitution. In some embodiments,
conservative substitutions in the sequences of the polypeptides and
antibodies of the disclosure do not abrogate the binding of the
antibody containing the amino acid sequence, to the antigen(s),
e.g., the TNF-alpha to which the antibody binds. Methods of
identifying nucleotide and amino acid conservative substitutions
which do not eliminate antigen binding are well-known in the art
(see, e.g., Brummell et al., Biochem. 32: 1180-1 187 (1993);
Kobayashi et al., Protein Eng. 12(10):879-884 (1999); and Burks et
al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 94:412-417 (1997)).

protective group or another being dependent on the particular the
synthetic scheme planned. Treatises on the subject are available
for consultation, such as Wuts, P. G. M.; Greene, T. W., "Greene's
Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis", 4th Ed., J. Wiley &
Sons, N Y, 2007. Suitable protecting groups include the
carbobenzyloxy (Cbz), tert-butyloxycarbonyl (BOC),
9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (FMOC), and benzyl (Bn) group. In one
embodiment, the protecting group is the BOC group.
[0127] The compounds disclosed herein contain asymmetric centers
and thus give rise to enantiomers, diastereomers, and other
stereoisomeric forms. The present disclosure is meant to encompass
the use of all such possible forms, as well as their racemic and
resolved forms and mixtures thereof. The individual enantiomers can
be separated according to methods known in the art in view of the
present disclosure. When the compounds described herein contain
olefinic double bonds or other centers of geometric asymmetry, and
unless specified otherwise, it is intended that they include both E
and Z geometric isomers. All tautomers are also intended to be
encompassed by the present disclosure.
[0128] The present disclosure encompasses the preparation and use
of solvates of the compounds disclosed herein. Solvates typically
do not significantly alter the physiological activity or toxicity
of the compounds, and as such may function as pharmacological
equivalents. The term "solvate" as used herein is a combination,
physical association and/or solvation of a compound of the present
disclosure with a solvent molecule such as, e.g. a disolvate,
monosolvate or hemisolvate, where the ratio of solvent molecule to
compound of the present disclosure is about 2:1, about 1:1 or about
1:2, respectively. This physical association involves varying
degrees of ionic and covalent bonding, including hydrogen bonding.
In certain instances, the solvate can be isolated, such as when one
or more solvent molecules are incorporated into the crystal lattice
of a crystalline solid. Thus, "solvate" encompasses both
solution-phase and isolatable solvates. Compounds disclosed herein
can be present as solvated forms with a pharmaceutically acceptable
solvent, such as water, methanol, ethanol, and the like, and it is
intended that the disclosure includes both solvated and unsolvated
forms of compounds disclosed herein. One type of solvate is a
hydrate. A "hydrate" relates to a particular subgroup of solvates
where the solvent molecule is water. Solvates typically can
function as pharmacological equivalents. Preparation of solvates is
known in the art. See, for example, M. Caira et al, J. Pharmaceut.
Sci., 93(3):601-611 (2004), which describes the preparation of
solvates of fluconazole with ethyl acetate and with water. Similar
preparation of solvates, hemisolvates, hydrates, and the like are
described by E. C. van Tonder et al., AAPS Pharm. Sci. Tech.,
5(1):Article 12 (2004), and A. L. Bingham et al., Chem. Commun.
603-604 (2001). A typical, non-limiting, process of preparing a
solvate would involve dissolving a compound disclosed herein in a
desired solvent (organic, water, or a mixture thereof) at
temperatures above 20.degree. C. to about 25.degree. C., then
cooling the solution at a rate sufficient to form crystals, and
isolating the crystals by known methods, e.g., filtration.
Analytical techniques such as infrared spectroscopy can be used to
confirm the presence of the solvent in a crystal of the
solvate.
[0129] The present disclosure encompasses the preparation and use
of salts of the compounds disclosed herein, including non-toxic
pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Examples of pharmaceutically
acceptable addition salts include inorganic and organic acid
addition salts and basic salts. The pharmaceutically acceptable
salts include, but are not limited to, metal salts such as sodium
salt, potassium salt, cesium salt and the like; alkaline earth
metals such as calcium salt, magnesium salt and the like; organic
amine salts such as triethylamine salt, pyridine salt, picoline
salt, ethanolamine salt, triethanolamine salt, dicyclohexylamine
salt, N,N'-dibenzylethylenediamine salt and the like; inorganic
acid salts such as hydrochloride, hydrobromide, phosphate, sulphate
and the like; organic acid salts such as citrate, lactate,
tartrate, maleate, fumarate, mandelate, acetate, dichloroacetate,
trifluoroacetate, oxalate, formate and the like; sulfonates such as
methanesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, p-toluenesulfonate and the
like; and amino acid salts such as arginate, asparginate, glutamate
and the like.
[0130] Acid addition salts can be formed by mixing a solution of
the particular compound disclosed with a solution of a
pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic acid such as hydrochloric
acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, succinic acid, acetic acid, citric
acid, tartaric acid, carbonic acid, phosphoric acid, oxalic acid,
dichloroacetic acid, or the like. Basic salts can be formed by
mixing a solution of the compound of the present disclosure with a
solution of a pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic base such as
sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, choline hydroxide, sodium
carbonate and the like.
[0131] As used in the present disclosure and claims, the singular
forms "a," "an," and "the" include plural forms unless the context
clearly dictates otherwise.
[0132] 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.
[0133] The term "and/or" as used in a phrase such as "A and/or B"
herein is intended to include both "A and B," "A or B," "A," and
"B." Likewise, the term "and/or" as used in a phrase such as "A, B,
and/or C" is intended to encompass each of the following
embodiments: A, B, and C; A, B, or C; A or C; A or B; B or C; A and
C; A and B; B and C; A (alone); B (alone); and C (alone).
II. Proteins for Linkage to Glucocorticoid Receptor Agonists
[0134] The present disclosure provides agents immunoconjugates
containing glucocorticoid receptor agonists linked to proteins, for
example, antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof and
soluble receptor proteins. In some embodiments, the antibody or
antigen-binding fragment thereof is human, humanized, chimeric, or
murine. In some embodiments, the protein, e.g., antibody,
antigen-binding fragment thereof, or soluble receptor protein, can
bind to a target on the surface of a cell and become
internalized.
[0135] The present disclosure also provides immunoconjugates
containing glucocorticoid receptor agonists linked to anti-TNF
alpha proteins. In certain embodiments, the anti-TNF alpha proteins
are antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof. In certain
embodiments, the anti-TNF alpha proteins are antibodies or
antigen-binding fragments thereof that bind to TNF alpha (e.g.,
soluble TNF alpha and/or membrane bound TNF alpha). In certain
embodiments, the anti-TNF alpha proteins are soluble TNF receptor
proteins, e.g., soluble TNF receptor proteins fused to a heavy
chain constant domain or fragment thereof such as an Fc. In some
embodiments, the anti-TNF alpha protein, e.g., anti-TNF antibody,
antigen-binding fragment thereof, or soluble TNF receptor can bind
to TNF alpha on the surface of a cell and become internalized. For
example, US 2014/0294813, which is herein incorporated by reference
in its entirety, discloses anti-TNF proteins that exhibit cellular
internalization upon binding to cell surface human TNF.
[0136] In certain embodiments, the antibodies or antigen-binding
fragments thereof bind to human and/or mouse TNF-alpha. Antibodies
and antigen-binding fragments that bind to TNF-alpha are known in
the art.

as described in Lefranc M-P (1999) supra and Lefranc M-P et al.,
(1999) supra).
[0153] In a particular embodiment, provided herein are antibodies
that specifically bind to TNF-alpha and comprise CDRs of
adalimumab, infliximab, certolizumab pegol, afelimomab,
nerelimomab, ozoralizumab, placulumab, or golimumab as determined

[0155] In a particular embodiment, provided herein are antibodies
or antigen-binding fragments thereof that specifically bind to
CD163.
[0156] Monoclonal antibodies can be prepared using hybridoma
methods, such as those described by Kohler and Milstein (1975)
Nature 256:495. Using the hybridoma method, a mouse, hamster, or
other appropriate host animal, is immunized to elicit the
production by lymphocytes of antibodies that will specifically bind
to an immunizing antigen. Lymphocytes can also be immunized in
vitro. Following immunization, the lymphocytes are isolated and
fused with a suitable myeloma cell line using, for example,
polyethylene glycol, to form hybridoma cells that can then be
selected away from unfused lymphocytes and myeloma cells.
Hybridomas that produce monoclonal antibodies directed specifically
against a chosen antigen as determined by immunoprecipitation,
immunoblotting, or by an in vitro binding assay (e.g.,
radioimmunoassay (RIA); enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA))
can then be propagated either in vitro culture using standard
methods (Goding, Monoclonal Antibodies: Principles and Practice,
Academic Press, 1986) or in vivo as ascites tumors in an animal.
The monoclonal antibodies can then be purified from the culture
medium or ascites fluid as described for polyclonal antibodies.
[0157] Alternatively monoclonal antibodies can also be made using
recombinant DNA methods as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,816,567.
The polynucleotides encoding a monoclonal antibody are isolated
from mature B-cells or hybridoma cells, such as by RT-PCR using
oligonucleotide primers that specifically amplify the genes
encoding the heavy and light chains of the antibody, and their
sequence is determined using conventional procedures. The isolated
polynucleotides encoding the heavy and light chains are then cloned
into suitable expression vectors, which when 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, monoclonal antibodies are generated by the
host cells. Also, recombinant monoclonal antibodies or fragments
thereof of the desired species can be isolated from phage display
libraries expressing CDRs of the desired species as described
(McCafferty et al., 1990, Nature, 348:552-554; Clackson et al.,
1991, Nature, 352:624-628; and Marks et al., 1991, J. Mol. Biol.,
222:581-597).
[0158] The polynucleotide(s) encoding a monoclonal antibody can
further be modified in a number of different manners using
recombinant DNA technology to generate alternative antibodies. In
some embodiments, the constant domains of the light and heavy
chains of, for example, a mouse monoclonal antibody can be
substituted 1) for those regions of, for example, a human antibody
to generate a chimeric antibody or 2) for a non-immunoglobulin
polypeptide to generate a fusion antibody. In some embodiments, the
constant regions are truncated or removed to generate the desired
antibody fragment of a monoclonal antibody. Site-directed or
high-density mutagenesis of the variable region can be used to
optimize specificity, affinity, etc. of a monoclonal antibody.
[0159] In some embodiments, the monoclonal antibody against the
TNF-alpha is a humanized antibody. In certain embodiments, such
antibodies are used therapeutically to reduce antigenicity and HAMA
(human anti-mouse antibody) responses when administered to a human
subject.
[0160] Methods for engineering, humanizing or resurfacing non-human
or human antibodies can also be used and are well known in the art.
A humanized, resurfaced or similarly engineered antibody can have
one or more amino acid residues from a source that is non-human,
e.g., but not limited to, mouse, rat, rabbit, non-human primate or
other mammal. These non-human amino acid residues are replaced by
residues that are often referred to as "import" residues, which are
typically taken from an "import" variable, constant or other domain
of a known human sequence.
[0161] Such imported sequences can be used to reduce immunogenicity
or reduce, enhance or modify binding, affinity, on-rate, off-rate,
avidity, specificity, half-life, or any other suitable
characteristic, as known in the art. In general, the CDR residues
are directly and most substantially involved in influencing
TNF-alpha binding. Accordingly, part or all of the non-human or
human CDR sequences are maintained while the non-human sequences of
the variable and constant regions can be replaced with human or
other amino acids.
[0162] Antibodies can also optionally be humanized, resurfaced,
engineered or human antibodies engineered with retention of high
affinity for the antigen e.g., TNF-alpha, and other favorable
biological properties. To achieve this goal, humanized (or human)
or engineered antibodies and resurfaced antibodies can be
optionally prepared by a process of analysis of the parental
sequences and various conceptual humanized and engineered products
using three-dimensional models of the parental, engineered, and
humanized sequences. Three-dimensional immunoglobulin models are
commonly available and are familiar to those skilled in the art.
Computer programs are available which illustrate and display
probable three-dimensional conformational structures of selected
candidate immunoglobulin sequences. Inspection of these displays
permits analysis of the likely role of the residues in the
functioning of the candidate immunoglobulin sequence, i.e., the
analysis of residues that influence the ability of the candidate
immunoglobulin to bind its antigen, such as TNF-alpha. In this way,
framework (FR) residues can be selected and combined from the
consensus and import sequences so that the desired antibody
characteristic, such as increased affinity for the target
antigen(s), is achieved.
[0163] Humanization, resurfacing or engineering of antibodies of
the present disclosure can be performed using any known method,
such as but not limited to those described in, Winter (Jones et
al., Nature 321:522 (1986); Riechmann et al., Nature 332:323

7,342,110, each of which is entirely incorporated herein by
reference, including the references cited therein.
[0164] In certain alternative embodiments, the antibody (e.g., an
anti-TNFalpha antibody) is a human antibody. Human antibodies can
be directly prepared using various techniques known in the art.
Immortalized human B lymphocytes immunized in vitro or isolated
from an immunized individual that produce an antibody directed
against a target antigen can be generated (See, e.g., Cole et al.,
Monoclonal Antibodies and Cancer Therapy, Alan R. Liss, p. 77
(1985); Boemer et al., 1991, J. Immunol., 147 (1):86-95; and U.S.
Pat. No. 5,750,373). Also, the human antibody can be selected from
a phage library, where that phage library expresses human
antibodies, as described, for example, in Vaughan et al., 1996,
Nat. Biotech., 14:309-314, Sheets et al., 1998, Proc. Nat'l. Acad.
Sci., 95:6157-6162, Hoogenboom and Winter, 1991, J. Mol. Biol.,
227:381, and Marks et al., 1991, J. Mol. Biol., 222:581).
Techniques for the generation and use of antibody phage libraries
are also described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,969,108, 6,172,197,
5,885,793, 6,521,404; 6,544,731; 6,555,313; 6,582,915; 6,593,081;
6,300,064; 6,653,068; 6,706,484; and 7,264,963; and Rothe et al.,
2007, J. Mol. Bio., doi:10.1016/j.jmb.2007.12.018 (each of which is
incorporated by reference in its entirety). Affinity maturation
strategies and chain shuffling strategies (Marks et al., 1992,
Bio/Technology 10:779-783, incorporated by reference in its
entirety) are known in the art and can be employed to generate high
affinity human antibodies.
[0165] Humanized antibodies can also be made in transgenic mice
containing human immunoglobulin loci that are capable upon
immunization of producing the full repertoire of human antibodies
in the absence of endogenous immunoglobulin production. This
approach is described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,545,807; 5,545,806;
5,569,825; 5,625,126; 5,633,425; and 5,661,016.
[0166] In certain embodiments are provided an antibody fragment to,
for example, increase tumor penetration. Various techniques are
known for the production of antibody fragments. Traditionally,
these fragments are derived via proteolytic digestion of intact
antibodies (for example Morimoto et al., 1993, Journal of
Biochemical and Biophysical Methods 24:107-117; Brennan et al.,
1985, Science, 229:81). In certain embodiments, antibody fragments
are produced recombinantly. Fab, Fv, and scFv antibody fragments
can all be expressed in and secreted from E. coli or other host
cells, thus allowing the production of large amounts of these
fragments. Such antibody fragments can also be isolated from
antibody phage libraries. The antibody fragment can also be linear
antibodies as described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,641,870. Other
techniques for the production of antibody fragments will be
apparent to the skilled practitioner.
[0167] For the purposes of the present disclosure, it should be
appreciated that modified antibodies can comprise any type of
variable region that provides for the association of the antibody
with the antigen (e.g., TNF alpha). In this regard, the variable
region can comprise or be derived from any type of mammal that can
be induced to mount a humoral response and generate immunoglobulins
against the desired tumor associated antigen. As such, the variable
region of the modified antibodies can be, for example, of human,
murine, non-human primate (e.g., cynomolgus monkeys, macaques,
etc.) or lupine origin. In some embodiments both the variable and
constant regions of the modified immunoglobulins are human. In
other embodiments the variable regions of compatible antibodies
(usually derived from a non-human source) can be engineered or
specifically tailored to improve the binding properties or reduce
the immunogenicity of the molecule. In this respect, variable
regions useful in the present disclosure can be humanized or
otherwise altered through the inclusion of imported amino acid
sequences.
[0168] In certain embodiments, the variable domains in both the
heavy and light chains are altered by at least partial replacement
of one or more CDRs and, if necessary, by partial framework region
replacement and sequence changing. Although the CDRs can be derived
from an antibody of the same class or even subclass as the antibody
from which the framework regions are derived, it is envisaged that
the CDRs will be derived from an antibody of different class and in
certain embodiments from an antibody from a different species. It
may not be necessary to replace all of the CDRs with the complete
CDRs from the donor variable region to transfer the antigen-binding
capacity of one variable domain to another. Rather, it may only be
necessary to transfer those residues that are necessary to maintain
the activity of the antigen-binding site. Given the explanations
set forth in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,585,089, 5,693,761 and 5,693,762, it
will be well within the competence of those skilled in the art,
either by carrying out routine experimentation or by trial and
error testing to obtain a functional antibody with reduced
immunogenicity.
[0169] Anti-TNF alpha proteins include soluble TNF receptor
proteins. The anti-TNF alpha protein can be a soluble p75 TNF
receptor. The anti-TNF alpha protein can be a soluble p55 TNF
receptor.
[0170] The soluble TNF receptor can bind to both TNF alpha and TNF
beta. The soluble TNF receptor can bind to TNF alpha, but not to
TNF beta.
[0171] The soluble TNF receptor can inhibit binding of TNF alpha
(and optionally TNF beta) to cell surface TNF receptors.
[0172] The soluble TNF receptor can be etanercept.
[0173] An anti-TNF alpha protein, e.g., a soluble TNF receptor, can
be fused to a heavy chain constant domain or fragment thereof or an
Fc region or fragment thereof. The heavy chain constant domain
fragment or Fc fragment can be a portion of the constant domain or
Fc that is capable of binding to Fc receptor. The heavy chain
constant domain fragment or Fc fragment can be a portion of the
constant domain or Fc that is capable of inducing cell lysis in
vitro in the presence of complement. The heavy chain constant
domain fragment or Fc fragment can be a portion of the constant
domain or Fc that is capable of inducing ADCC.
[0174] The heavy chain constant domain or fragment thereof or Fc
region or fragment thereof can be a human heavy chain constant
domain or fragment thereof or human Fc region or fragment thereof.
The heavy chain constant domain or fragment thereof or Fc region or
fragment thereof can be an IgG1 heavy chain constant domain or
fragment thereof or an IgG1 Fc region or fragment thereof. The
heavy chain constant domain or fragment thereof or Fc region or
fragment thereof can be a human IgG1 heavy chain constant domain or
fragment thereof or human IgG1 Fc region or fragment thereof.
[0175] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the antibodies
and antigen-binding fragments thereof of this disclosure and the
anti-TNF proteins of this disclosure include antibodies,
antigen-binding fragments thereof, and anti-TNF proteins (e.g.,
full-length antibodies, antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, or
soluble TNF receptor proteins) comprising one or more of constant
region domains, including domains that have been altered so as to
provide desired biochemical characteristics such as reduced serum
half-life when compared with an antibody, antigen-binding fragment
thereof, or anti-TNF protein of approximately the same
immunogenicity comprising a native or unaltered constant region. In
some embodiments, the constant region of the antibody,
antigen-binding fragment thereof, or anti-TNF protein (e.g.,
full-length antibodies, antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, or
soluble TNF receptor proteins) will comprise a human constant
region. Modifications to the constant region compatible with this
disclosure comprise additions, deletions, or substitutions of one
or more amino acids in one or more domains. That is, the antibody,
antigen-binding fragment thereof, or anti-TNF proteins (e.g.,
full-length antibodies, antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, or
soluble TNF receptor proteins) disclosed herein can comprise
alterations or modifications to one or more of the three heavy
chain constant domains (CH1, CH2 or CH3) and/or to the light chain
constant domain (CL). In some embodiments, modified constant
regions wherein one or more domains are partially or entirely
deleted are contemplated. In some embodiments, the antibodies,
antigen-binding fragments thereof, or anti-TNF proteins (e.g.,
full-length antibodies, antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, or
soluble TNF receptor proteins) will comprise domain deleted
constructs or variants wherein the entire CH2 domain has been
removed (ACH2 constructs). In some embodiments, the omitted
constant region domain will be replaced by a short amino acid
spacer (e.g., 10 residues) that provides some of the molecular
flexibility typically imparted by the absent constant region.
[0176] It will be noted that in certain embodiments, the
antibodies, antigen-binding fragments thereof, or anti-TNF proteins
(e.g., full-length antibodies, antigen-binding fragments of
antibodies, or soluble TNF receptor proteins) can be engineered to
fuse the CH3 domain directly to the hinge region of the respective
antibodies, antigen-binding fragments thereof, or anti-TNF proteins
(e.g., full-length antibodies, antigen-binding fragments of
antibodies, or soluble TNF receptor proteins). In other constructs
it can be desirable to provide a peptide spacer between the hinge
region and the modified CH2 and/or CH3 domains. For example,
compatible constructs could be expressed wherein the CH2 domain has
been deleted and the remaining CH3 domain (modified or unmodified)
is joined to the hinge region with a 5-20 amino acid spacer. Such a
spacer can be added, for instance, to ensure that the regulatory
elements of the constant domain remain free and accessible or that
the hinge region remains flexible. However, it should be noted that
amino acid spacers can, in some cases, prove to be immunogenic and
elicit an unwanted immune response against the construct.
Accordingly, in certain embodiments, any spacer added to the
construct will be relatively non-immunogenic, or even omitted
altogether, so as to maintain the desired biochemical qualities of
the antibodies, antigen-binding fragments thereof, or anti-TNF
proteins (e.g., full-length antibodies, antigen-binding fragments
of antibodies, or soluble TNF receptor proteins).
[0177] It will be appreciated that the antibodies, antigen-binding
fragments thereof, and anti-TNF proteins (e.g., full-length
antibodies, antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, or soluble TNF
receptor proteins) of the present disclosure can be provided by the
partial deletion or substitution of a few or even a single amino
acid. For example, the mutation of a single amino acid in selected
areas of the CH2 domain can be enough to substantially reduce Fc
binding and thereby increase tumor localization. Similarly, it may
be desirable to simply delete that part of one or more constant
region domains that control the effector function (e.g., complement
C1Q binding) to be modulated. Such partial deletions of the
constant regions can improve selected characteristics of the
antibody (serum half-life) while leaving other desirable functions
associated with the subject constant region domain intact.
Moreover, as alluded to above, the constant regions of the
disclosed antibodies, antigen-binding fragments thereof, and
anti-TNF proteins (e.g., full-length antibodies, antigen-binding
fragments of antibodies, or soluble TNF receptor proteins) can be
modified through the mutation or substitution of one or more amino
acids that enhances the profile of the resulting construct. In this
respect it can be possible to disrupt the activity provided by a
conserved binding site (e.g., Fc binding) while substantially
maintaining the configuration and immunogenic profile of the
antibodies, antigen-binding fragments thereof, and anti-TNF
proteins (e.g., full-length antibodies, antigen-binding fragments
of antibodies, or soluble TNF receptor proteins). Certain
embodiments can comprise the addition of one or more amino acids to
the constant region to enhance desirable characteristics such as
decreasing or increasing effector function or provide for more
glucocorticoid receptor agonist attachment. In such embodiments it
can be desirable to insert or replicate specific sequences derived
from selected constant region domains.
[0178] It will be appreciated that the antibodies, antigen-binding
fragments thereof, and anti-TNF proteins (e.g., full-length
antibodies, antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, or soluble TNF
receptor proteins) of the present disclosure can be modified to
reduce immunogenicity, i.e., to reduce the anti-drug immune
response (ADA). Methods of doing so are disclosed, for example, in
WO 2015/073884, which is herein incorporated by reference in its
entirety.
[0179] The present disclosure further embraces variants and
equivalents which are substantially homologous to antibodies,
antigen-binding fragments thereof, and anti-TNF proteins (e.g.,
full-length antibodies, antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, or
soluble TNF receptor proteins) set forth herein. These can contain,
for example, conservative substitution mutations, i.e., the
substitution of one or more amino acids by similar amino acids. For
example, conservative substitution refers to the substitution of an
amino acid with another within the same general class such as, for
example, one acidic amino acid with another acidic amino acid, one
basic amino acid with another basic amino acid or one neutral amino
acid by another neutral amino acid. What is intended by a
conservative amino acid substitution is well known in the art.
[0180] The polypeptides of the present disclosure can be
recombinant polypeptides, natural polypeptides, or synthetic
polypeptides of an antibody, antigen-binding fragment thereof, or
anti-TNF protein. It will be recognized in the art that some amino
acid sequences of the disclosure can be varied without significant
effect of the structure or function of the protein. Thus, the
disclosure further includes variations of the polypeptides which
show substantial activity or which include regions of an antibody,
antigen-binding fragment thereof, or anti-TNF alpha protein. Such
mutants include deletions, insertions, inversions, repeats, and
type substitutions.
[0181] The polypeptides and analogs can be further modified to
contain additional chemical moieties not normally part of the
protein. Those derivatized moieties can improve the solubility, the
biological half life or absorption of the protein. The moieties can
also reduce or eliminate any desirable side effects of the proteins
and the like. An overview for those moieties can be found in
REMINGTON'S PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES, 20th ed., Mack Publishing Co.,
Easton, Pa. (2000).
[0182] The isolated polypeptides described herein can be produced
by any suitable method known in the art. Such methods range from
direct protein synthetic methods to constructing a DNA sequence
encoding isolated polypeptide sequences and expressing those
sequences in a suitable transformed host. In some embodiments, a
DNA sequence is constructed using recombinant technology by
isolating or synthesizing a DNA sequence encoding a wild-type
protein of interest. Optionally, the sequence can be mutagenized by
site-specific mutagenesis to provide functional analogs thereof.
See, e.g., Zoeller et al., Proc. Nat'l. Acad. Sci. USA 81:5662-5066
(1984) and U.S. Pat. No. 4,588,585.
[0183] In some embodiments a DNA sequence encoding a polypeptide of
interest would be constructed by chemical synthesis using an
oligonucleotide synthesizer. Such oligonucleotides can be designed
based on the amino acid sequence of the desired polypeptide and
selecting those codons that are favored in the host cell in which
the recombinant polypeptide of interest will be produced. Standard
methods can be applied to synthesize an isolated polynucleotide
sequence encoding an isolated polypeptide of interest. For example,
a complete amino acid sequence can be used to construct a
back-translated gene. Further, a DNA oligomer containing a
nucleotide sequence coding for the particular isolated polypeptide
can be synthesized. For example, several small oligonucleotides
coding for portions of the desired polypeptide can be synthesized
and then ligated. The individual oligonucleotides typically contain
5' or 3' overhangs for complementary assembly.
[0184] Once assembled (by synthesis, site-directed mutagenesis or
another method), the polynucleotide sequences encoding a particular
isolated polypeptide of interest will be inserted into an
expression vector and operatively linked to an expression control
sequence appropriate for expression of the protein in a desired
host. Proper assembly can be confirmed by nucleotide sequencing,
restriction mapping, and expression of a biologically active
polypeptide in a suitable host. As is well known in the art, in
order to obtain high expression levels of a transfected gene in a
host, the gene must be operatively linked to transcriptional and
translational expression control sequences that are functional in
the chosen expression host.
[0185] In certain embodiments, recombinant expression vectors are
used to amplify and express DNA encoding antibodies,
antigen-binding fragments thereof, or anti-TNF proteins (e.g.,
full-length antibodies, antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, or
soluble TNF receptor proteins). Recombinant expression vectors are
replicable DNA constructs which have synthetic or cDNA-derived DNA
fragments encoding a polypeptide chain of an antibody,
antigen-binding fragment thereof, or anti-TNF protein (e.g.,
full-length antibodies, antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, or
soluble TNF receptor proteins), operatively linked to suitable
transcriptional or translational regulatory elements derived from
mammalian, microbial, viral or insect genes. A transcriptional unit
generally comprises an assembly of (1) a genetic element or
elements having a regulatory role in gene expression, for example,
transcriptional promoters or enhancers, (2) a structural or coding
sequence which is transcribed into mRNA and translated into
protein, and (3) appropriate transcription and translation
initiation and termination sequences. Such regulatory elements can
include an operator sequence to control transcription. The ability
to replicate in a host, usually conferred by an origin of
replication, and a selection gene to facilitate recognition of
transformants can additionally be incorporated. DNA regions are
operatively linked when they are functionally related to each
other. For example, DNA for a signal peptide (secretory leader) is
operatively linked to DNA for a polypeptide if it is expressed as a
precursor which participates in the secretion of the polypeptide; a
promoter is operatively linked to a coding sequence if it controls
the transcription of the sequence; or a ribosome binding site is
operatively linked to a coding sequence if it is positioned so as
to permit translation. Structural elements intended for use in
yeast expression systems include a leader sequence enabling
extracellular secretion of translated protein by a host cell.
Alternatively, where recombinant protein is expressed without a
leader or transport sequence, it can include an N-terminal
methionine residue. This residue can optionally be subsequently
cleaved from the expressed recombinant protein to provide a final
product.
[0186] The choice of expression control sequence and expression
vector will depend upon the choice of host. A wide variety of
expression host/vector combinations can be employed. Useful
expression vectors for eukaryotic hosts, include, for example,
vectors comprising expression control sequences from SV40, bovine
papilloma virus, adenovirus and cytomegalovirus. Useful expression
vectors for bacterial hosts include known bacterial plasmids, such
as plasmids from Escherichia coli, including pCR 1, pBR322, pMB9
and their derivatives, wider host range plasmids, such as M13 and
filamentous single-stranded DNA phages.
[0187] Suitable host cells for expression of antibodies,
antigen-binding fragments thereof, and anti-TNF proteins (e.g.,
full-length antibodies, antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, or
soluble TNF receptor proteins) include prokaryotes, yeast, insect
or higher eukaryotic cells under the control of appropriate
promoters. Prokaryotes include gram negative or gram positive
organisms, for example E. coli or bacilli. Higher eukaryotic cells
include established cell lines of mammalian origin. Cell-free
translation systems could also be employed. Appropriate cloning and
expression vectors for use with bacterial, fungal, yeast, and
mammalian cellular hosts are described by Pouwels et al. (Cloning
Vectors: A Laboratory Manual, Elsevier, N.Y., 1985), the relevant
disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. Additional
information regarding methods of protein production, including
antibody production, can be found, e.g., in U.S. Patent Publication
No. 2008/0187954, U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,413,746 and 6,660,501, and
International Patent Publication No. WO 04009823, each of which is
hereby incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
[0188] Various mammalian or insect cell culture systems are also
advantageously employed to express recombinant protein. Expression
of recombinant proteins in mammalian cells can be performed because
such proteins are generally correctly folded, appropriately
modified and completely functional. Examples of suitable mammalian
host cell lines include HEK-293 and HEK-293T, the COS-7 lines of
monkey kidney cells, described by Gluzman (Cell 23:175, 1981), and
other cell lines including, for example, L cells, C127, 3T3,
Chinese hamster ovary (CHO), HeLa and BHK cell lines. Mammalian
expression vectors can comprise nontranscribed elements such as an
origin of replication, a suitable promoter and enhancer linked to
the gene to be expressed, and other 5' or 3' flanking
nontranscribed sequences, and 5' or 3' nontranslated sequences,
such as necessary ribosome binding sites, a polyadenylation site,
splice donor and acceptor sites, and transcriptional termination
sequences. Baculovirus systems for production of heterologous
proteins in insect cells are reviewed by Luckow and Summers,
Bio/Technology 6:47 (1988).
[0189] The proteins produced by a transformed host can be purified
according to any suitable method. Such standard methods include
chromatography (e.g., ion exchange, affinity and sizing column
chromatography), centrifugation, differential solubility, or by any
other standard technique for protein purification. Affinity tags
such as hexahistidine, maltose binding domain, influenza coat
sequence and glutathione-S-transferase can be attached to the
protein to allow easy purification by passage over an appropriate
affinity column. Isolated proteins can also be physically
characterized using such techniques as proteolysis, nuclear
magnetic resonance and x-ray crystallography.
[0190] For example, supernatants from systems which secrete
recombinant protein into culture media can be first concentrated
using a commercially available protein concentration filter, for
example, an Amicon or Millipore Pellicon ultrafiltration unit.
Following the concentration step, the concentrate can be applied to
a suitable purification matrix. Alternatively, an anion exchange
resin can be employed, for example, a matrix or substrate having
pendant diethylaminoethyl (DEAE) groups. The matrices can be
acrylamide, agarose, dextran, cellulose or other types commonly
employed in protein purification. Alternatively, a cation exchange
step can be employed. Suitable cation exchangers include various
insoluble matrices comprising sulfopropyl or carboxymethyl groups.
Finally, one or more reversed-phase high performance liquid
chromatography (RP-HPLC) steps employing hydrophobic RP-HPLC media,
e.g., silica gel having pendant methyl or other aliphatic groups,
can be employed to further purify anti-TNF proteins (e.g.,
full-length antibodies, antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, or
soluble TNF receptor proteins). Some or all of the foregoing
purification steps, in various combinations, can also be employed
to provide a homogeneous recombinant protein.
[0191] Recombinant protein produced in bacterial culture can be
isolated, for example, by initial extraction from cell pellets,
followed by one or more concentration, salting-out, aqueous ion
exchange or size exclusion chromatography steps. High performance
liquid chromatography (HPLC) can be employed for final purification
steps. Microbial cells employed in expression of a recombinant
protein can be disrupted by any convenient method, including
freeze-thaw cycling, sonication, mechanical disruption, or use of
cell lysing agents.
[0192] Methods known in the art for purifying antibodies,
antigen-binding fragments thereof, and anti-TNF alpha proteins also
include, for example, those described in U.S. Patent Publication
Nos. 2008/0312425, 2008/0177048, and 2009/0187005, each of which is
hereby incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.

[0619] According to the present disclosure, glucorticoid receptor
agonists can be linked to the antibody, antigen-binding fragment
thereof, or anti-TNF alpha proteins via any method and at any
location that does not prevent the antibody, antigen-binding
fragment thereof, or anti-TNF alpha protein from binding antigen
(e.g., TNF alpha) or prevent activity of the glucorticoid receptor
agonist. Methods for achieving such a linkage have been discussed,
for example, in Panowski et al., mAbs 6: 34-45 (2014), Jain et al.,
Pharm. Res. 32: 3526-3540 (2015), Mack et al., Seminars in Oncology
41: 637-652 (2014), U.S. Published Application No. 2008/0305044,
and U.S. Published Application No. 2011/0097322 each of which is
herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
[0620] The glucorticoid receptor agonists can be linked to the
antibodies, antigen-binding fragments thereof, or anti-TNF alpha
proteins via a natural amino acid, e.g., an amino acid that has a
side-chain with a nucleophilic group.
[0621] For example, the glucorticoid receptor agonist can be linked
to a lysine residue. Methods for conjugation via lysine are known.
Such methods include a two-step process in which a linker is
attached to the antibody, antigen-binding fragment thereof, or
anti-TNF alpha protein in a first chemical reaction and then the
linker is reacted with the glucocorticoid receptor agonist in a
second chemical reaction. In another method, a one-step reaction
with a preformed linker-glucocorticoid receptor agonist to form the
conjugate containing the glucocorticoid receptor agonist linked to
the antibody, antigen-binding fragment thereof, or anti-TNF alpha
protein.
[0622] The glucorticoid receptor agonist can also be linked to a
cysteine residue. Methods for conjugation via cysteine are know.
IgG1 antibodies contain four inter-chain disulfide bonds, and
conjugation via cysteine can occur after reduction of these bonds
creates sulfhydryls available for conjugation.
[0623] The glucorticoid receptor agonists can be linked to the
antibody, antigen-binding fragment thereof, or anti-TNF alpha
proteins via site-specific conjugation.
[0624] One method of site-specific conjugation is cysteine-based
site-specific conjugation. An example of this method has been
reported by Junutula et al., Nat. Biotechnol 26: 925-935 (2008);
see also Junutula et al., J. Immunol. Methods 332: 41-52 (2008),
each of which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
Using this method, antibodies, antigen-binding fragments thereof or
anti-TNF alpha proteins can be engineered with additional cysteines
that provide reactive thiol groups to conjugate glucocorticoid
receptor agonist. These publications also provide guidance
regarding the selection of reactive cysteins that do not interfere
with antigen binding.
[0625] Another method of site-specific conjugation makes use of
selenocysteine. Selenocysteine is similar to cysteine but conatins
a more reactive selenium atom in place of the sulfur atom in
cysteine. Conditions can be used in which selenocysteines are
selectively activated. Hofer et al., Biochemistry 48: 12047-12057
(2009), which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety,
has exemplified this technique.
[0626] Another method of site-specific conjugation makes use of
unnatural amino acids, e.g., acetylphenylalanine (pAcPhe) or
para-azido phenylalanine (pAF). Wang et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci.
100: 56-61 (2003), Axup et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci.
109:16101-16106 (2012), and Kern et al., JACS 138: 1430-1445
(2016), each of which is herein incorporated by reference in its
entirety, have exemplified this technique.
[0627] Another method of site-specific conjugation makes use of
enzymatic approaches, e.g., via glycotransferases or
transglutaminases. Mutant glycotransferases can be used to attach a
chemically active sugar moiety to a glycosylation site on an
antibody, antigen-binding fragment thereof, or anti-TNF alpha
protein. Human IgG antibodies contain an N-glycosylation site at
residue Asn-297 of the Fc fragment. The glycans attached at this
residue can be degalactosylated so that a mutant glycotransferase
is capable of transferring thereto. Boeggeman et al., Bioconjug.
Chem. 20: 1228-1236 (2009), which is herein incorporated by
reference in its entirety, has exemplified this technique.
Transglutaminases, e.g., from Streptoverticillium mobaranse,
recognize a glutamine tag, e.g., LLQG, that can be engineered into
an anti-TNF alpha protein. Jeger et al., Angew Chem. Int. Ed. Engl.
49: 9995-9997 (2010), which is herein incorporated by reference in
its entirety, has exemplified this technique.
[0628] C-terminal attachment via expressed protein ligation can
also be used. For example, intein mediated C-terminal thioester
formation can be used for chemoselective ligation with an anti-TNF
alpha protein containing an N-temrinal cysteine peptide. Chiang et
al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 136: 3370-3373 (2014), which is herein
incorporated by reference in its entirety, has exemplified this
technique.

##STR00843##
[1116] Oxalyl chloride (17.51 mL, 200 mmol) was added drop-wise to
a 0.degree. C. solution of 4-formylbenzoic acid (15.01 g, 100 mmol)
in THF (100 mL), followed by N,N-dimethylformamide (0.387 mL, 5.00
mmol) in drop-wise addition. The mixture was allowed to warm to
room temperature and then stirred for an additional 2 h. The
mixture was concentrated in vacuo to give 4-formylbenzoyl chloride
(16.86 g, 100 mmol, 100% yield), which was used without further
purification.
Step 2: Synthesis of tert-Butyl
(3-(4-formylbenzamido)phenyl)carbamate
##STR00844##
[1118] Triethylamine (63.4 mL, 455 mmol) was added drop-wise to a

mmol) in THF (100 mL), followed by addition of tert-butyl
(3-aminophenyl)carbamate (18.93 g, 91 mmol). After stirring at room
temperature for 2 h, the mixture was diluted with EtOAc (200 mL),
washed with water (2.times.100 mL) and brine (100 mL), dried over
Na.sub.2SO.sub.4, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was
triturated in 20 mL of EtOAc/PE (1:1), and the resulting
precipitate was collected to give tert-butyl

MgSO.sub.4 (12.04 g, 100 mmol) in MeCN (250 mL) was added drop-wise
trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (11.11 ml, 125 mmol) at 0.degree. C.
The mixture was stirred at 0.degree. C. for 2 hours and then warmed
to room temperature and stirred for additional 16 h. The mixture
was filtered and washed with THF, and the filtrate was concentrated
in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in THF (100 mL) and then
neutralized with 1 M NaOH aqueous solution to pH=8. The mixture was
extracted with EtOAc (200 mL), washed with water (2.times.100 mL)
and brine (100 mL), dried over Na.sub.2SO.sub.4, and concentrated
in vacuo. Purification by chromatography (silica) eluting with 5%
MeOH/DCM gave crude product, which was further purified by reverse
phase HPLC on a Sunfire C18 10 micron (250.times.19 mm column). A
gradient of MeCN (A) and 0.05% TFA in water (B) was used, at a flow
rate of 30 mL/min (0-10.0 min linear gradient 22-32%, hold 5 min).

##STR00848##
[1129] To a solution of 3-aminophenol (10 g, 92 mmol) in THF (450
mL) was added Boc anhydride (23.40 mL, 101 mmol). The mixture was
heated at 85.degree. C. for 16 h, monitored by LCMS. After that,
the mixture was concentrated to obtain a residue, which was
dissolved in EtOAc (150 mL) and washed with water (100 mL),
saturated NaHCO.sub.3 (100 mL) and brine (100 mL), dried over
Na.sub.2SO.sub.4, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude material was
washed with PE (50 mL.times.2) to give the title compound (16.5 g,
76 mmol, 82% yield) as a white solid. LCMS (Method g, Table 7)
R.sub.t=1.66 min, MS m/z=232.1 [M+Na.sup.+].

##STR00849##
[1131] To a solution of tert-butyl (3-hydroxyphenyl)carbamate (5 g,
23.90 mmol) in DCM (60 mL) at 0.degree. C. was added
4-formylbenzoic acid (3.59 g, 23.90 mmol), N,
N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (7.40 g, 35.8 mmol) and
4-dimethylaminopyridine (0.584 g, 4.78 mmol). The resulting mixture
was stirred at that temperature for 10 min under an atmosphere of
argon. Then the mixture was warmed to room temperature and stirring
was continued for 16 h. The mixture was cooled in an ice bath. The
side product N, N'-dicyclohexylurea was filtered off as a
precipitate and the clear filtrate was concentrated under vacuum.
The crude material was purified by silica gel chromatography
eluting with DCM/EtOAc (100%.about.30:1) to give the title compound
(7.0 g, 18.54 mmol, 78% yield) as a white solid. LCMS (Method d,

4-formylbenzoate (6 g, 17.58 mmol) in anhydrous MeCN (40 mL) and
THF (40 mL) at 0.degree. C. under nitrogen was added drop-wise
trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (7.8 mL, 87.9 mmol). The mixture was
stirred at 0.degree. C. for 1 h, then poured onto ice water (30 mL)
and extracted with EtOAc (2.times.45 mL). The combined organic
layers were washed with cooled water (2.times.30 mL), brine (30
mL), saturated NaHCO.sub.3 (30 mL) and additional water (30 mL),
concentrated in vacuo affording a yellow solid. The crude material
was purified by silica gel column chromatography (200-300 mesh),
eluting with DCM/MmeOH (100%.about.40:1) and then further purified

Example 73: Conjugation Protocols
General Cysteine Conjugation Protocol
[1257] An approximate 10 mg/mL solution of the desired antibody was
prepared in PBS buffer, pH 7.4 as well as a 10 mM TCEP solution in
PBS (Pierce Bond-Breaker, cat. 77720). Antibodies (anti-hTNF hIgG1
(D2E7) or anti-mTNF mIgG2a (8C11; McRae B L et al. J Crohns Colitis
10 (1): 69-76 (2016)) were then partially reduced by adding
approximately two molar eq of 10 mM TCEP, briefly mixing, and
incubating for 60 min at 37.degree. C. DMSO was then added to the
partially reduced antibodies in sufficient quantity to 15% total
DMSO. For the conjugations, 8 molar eq of a 10 mM D-L-maleimide
solution (wherein SM is a radical of a glucocorticosteroid and L is
a linker) were then added and incubated for 30 min at room
temperature. Excess combo and DMSO were then removed using NAP-5
desalting columns (GE Healthcare, cat. 17-0853-02) previously
equilibrated with PBS buffer, pH 7.4. Desalted samples were then
analyzed by size exclusion chromatography (SEC), hydrophobic
interaction chromatography (HIC), and reduced mass
spectrometry.
[1258] Thiosuccinimide Hydrolysis
##STR00910##
[1259] Hydrolysis of the thiosuccinimide ring of ADCs of the
disclosure was accomplished by incubating the ADCs at an elevated
pH. Briefly, a 0.7 M arginine, pH 9.0 solution was prepared and
added to each ADC in PBS buffer to bring the total arginine
concentration to 50 mM (pH .about.8.9). The material was then
incubated at 25.degree. C. for 72 hours. Hydrolysis of the
succinimide ring was then confirmed by reduced mass spectrometry,
after which, hydrolysis was quenched with the addition of a 0.1 M
acetic acid solution to 12.5 mM total acetic acid (pH
.about.7.1).
[1260] General Lysine Conjugation Protocol
[1261] An approximate 10 mg/mL solution of the desired antibody was
initially prepared in PBS buffer, pH 7.4. Eight molar eq of the
D-L-N-hydroxysuccinimide (wherein SM is a radical of a
glucocorticosteroid and L is a linker) was then added to the
antibody and incubated at 23.degree. C. for up to 24 hours in the
presence of 15% DMSO. Conjugated samples were then desalted to
remove excess combo and DMSO using NAP-5 desalting columns (GE
Healthcare, cat. 17-0853-02) equilibrated with PBS buffer, pH 7.4.
Desalted samples were then analyzed by size exclusion
chromatography (SEC), hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC),
and reduced mass spectrometry.
[1262] ADC Analytical Procedures
[1263] Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography. ADCs were profiled
by hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) to determine degree
of conjugation and to calculate approximate drug to antibody drug
ratios (DARs). Briefly, 100 .mu.g of the ADCs were loaded onto an
Ultimate 3000 Dual LC system (Thermo Scientific) equipped with a
4.6.times.35 mm butyl-NPR column (Tosoh Bioscience, cat. 14947).
ADCs were loaded onto the column equilibrated in 100% buffer A and
eluted using a linear gradient from 100% buffer A to 100% buffer B
over 12 min at 0.8 mL/min, where buffer A is 25 mM sodium
phosphate, 1.5 M ammonium sulfate, pH 7.25 and buffer B is 25 mM
sodium phosphate, 20% isopropanol, pH 7.25. The DAR was determined
by taking the sum of each peak percent area multiplied by their
corresponding drug load and dividing the weighted sum by 100.
[1264] Size Exclusion Chromatography. Size distributions of the
ADCs were profiled by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) using an
Ultimate 3000 Dual LC system (Thermo Scientific) equipped with a
7.8.times.300 mm TSK-gel 3000SW.sub.XL column (Tosoh Bioscience,
cat. 08541). 20 ug of each of the ADCs were loaded onto the column
and eluted over 17 min using an isocratic gradient at 1 mL/min of
100 mM sodium sulfate, 100 mM sodium phosphate, pH 6.8 at 0.8
mL/min.
Example 74: Preparation of Adalimumab Conjugated with a
Glucocorticosteroid to Give an ADC
[1265] Adalimumab MP-ala-ala steroid ADC having an average DAR 3.5
was prepared by a two-step chemical process: disulfide reduction of
adalimumab followed by alkylation (conjugation) with
maleimidopropyl alanine-alanine steroid Cpd. No. 88.
##STR00911##
[1266] In the first step, a limited number of interchain disulfide
bonds of adalimumab are reduced with tris(2-carboxyethyl) phosphine
("TCEP") (.gtoreq.1.8 equiv). Partially-reduced adalimumab is then
conjugated to Cpd. No. 88 (.gtoreq.5 equiv) in DMSO.
[1267] Referring to FIG. 5 which shows a chromatographic resolution
of the resultant ADC preparation, the ADC is a heterogenous mixture
containing antibodies having zero drug linker molecules attached
("E0" peak), two drug linker molecules attached ("E2" peak), four
drug linker molecules attached ("E4" peak), six drug linker
molecules attached ("E6" peak) and eight drug linker molecules
attached ("E8" peak), depending upon the number of interchain
disulfide bonds reduced. Methods of chromatographically separating
and isolating the homogenous E2 and E4 peaks are described by
Hamblett et al., Clin Cancer Res 2004; 10:7063-7070. The HIC
conditions used in FIG. 5 were as follows:
[1268] The column was TOSOH Tskgel Butyl-NPR, 4.6 mm.times.3.5 cm,
2.5.mu. and the column temperature was 30.degree. C. Wavelength was
280 nm, run time was 22 minutes, injection, volume was
[1269] 40 .mu.L, flow rate was 0.5 mL/minute. Mobile Phase A: 25 mM
Na.sub.2HPO.sub.4, pH 7.0 and 1.5M (NH.sub.4).sub.2SO.sub.4, Mobile

[1270] Methods of chromatographically separating and isolating the
homogenous E2 and E4 peaks are described by Hamblett et al., Clin
Cancer Res 2004; 10:7063-7070. Briefly, after hydrolysis and
adjustment to pH<7.4, the broad distribution mixture was treated
with 3 M ammonium sulfate/50 mM phosphate buffer to bring the
overall solution concentration of ammonium sulfate to approximately
0.8 M. A pre-packed Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography (HIC)
column (resin butyl sepharose HP) was prepared by sanitizing with
0.5 N NaOH solution (4 CV), rinsing with water for injection (WFI,
0.5 CV) and equilibration with 0.8 M ammonium sulfate/25 mM
phosphate buffer (4 CV). The broad distribution/ammonium sulfate
buffered solution was loaded on the HIC column (approximate
loading, 30 mg protein per mL of resin) followed by a wash with 0.8
M ammonium sulfate/25 mM phosphate buffer (2.5 CV). Elution of the
product was as follows: 0.72 M ammonium sulfate/25 mM phosphate
buffer (3 CV), unconjugated mAb; 0.56 M ammonium sulfate/25 mM
phosphate buffer (4.5 CV), DAR2 ADC; 0.32 M ammonium sulfate/25 mM
phosphate buffer (6.5 CV), DAR4 ADC. The DAR 2 and DAR4 product
fractions were then separately concentrated to approximately 30
mg/mL via ultrafiltration (Millipore Ultracel, 30 kD cutoff)
followed by diafiltration into WFI (8 CV).
[1271] The succinimide of the purified E4 conjugate was hydrolyzed
to provide the stabilized attachment by adjusting the pH of the
product solution to .gtoreq.9 using an arginine buffer. The
solution was held at ambient temperature for .gtoreq.2 days at
which time LC-MS analysis determined the hydrolysis was >90%
complete. See FIG. 6 for a portion of the LC-MS chromatogram. The
SEC conditions used in FIG. 6 were as follows:
[1272] The column was TOSOH TSK-gel G3000SW.sub.XL, 5.mu., 250
.ANG., 7.8.times.300 mm, the column was ambient temperature,
Wavelength was 214 nm, Run Time was 55 minutes, Injection Volume
was 10 .mu.L, Flow Rate was 0.25 mL/minute, Autosampler Temp. was
4.degree. C. Mobile Phase: 100 mM Na.sub.2HPO.sub.4 & 100 mM
Na.sub.2SO.sub.4, pH 6.8/IPA=90/10.
[1273] Raw (FIG. 7) and deconvoluted (FIG. 8) MS data of adalimumab
conjugated with MP-ala-ala-steroid Cpd. No. 88. Black square and
circle represent the ADC with succinimide hydrolyzed and
unhydrolyzed, respectively. The relative abundance of hydrolyzed
and unhydrolyzed ADC is used to determine hydrolysis
conversion.
[1274] Hydrolysis
[1275] Hydrolysis of succinimide ring after conjugation was
conducted with borate buffer at pH 8.0, pH 8.5 and pH 9.0 and
arginine buffer at pH 8.0 and pH 9.0 to study the rate of ring
hydrolysis. The results are shown in Table 9 below.

with detection reagent (DiscoveRx cat#93-0001; 12 .mu.l/well), and
incubated at room temperature (RT) for 60 minutes. Luminescence was
measured for each plate using an EnVision Multilabel Plate Reader
(Perkinelmer #2104-0010), and data were analyzed using a four
parameter curve fit to generate EC50 values. The results are shown
in Table 10 below.
Progesterone Receptor Binding Assay

Example 76: Stability of Anti-TNF-Alpha Immunoconjugates
Matrix Stability
[1282] Anti-TNF.alpha. steroid ADCs were tested for their
susceptibility to prematurely release small molecule payload under
physiological conditions. In these experiments, ADCs were diluted
in plasma (human, monkey, mouse, or rat) or buffer in duplicate and
incubated for 6 days at 37.degree. C., 5% CO.sub.2. Each sample was
quenched at time 0 minutes and at various time points over the
6-day period. Samples were then analyzed using LC/MS/MS and
compared with standard curves for the corresponding small molecule.
The % maximum release of small molecule payload over time was
calculated. The results are summarized in Table 11 below.

[1283] These results demonstrate that anti-TNF.alpha. steroid ADCs
are stable in buffer and plasma of multiple species and that
minimal small molecule release is observed.
Proteolytic Stability
[1284] The susceptibility of steroid ADCs to release their payload
through protease treatment was compared with an ADC generated using
the vcmcMMAE drug linker conjugated to a murine CD-19 antibody.
ADCs (average DAR of 4) were incubated with either cathepsin B or
proteinase K, and payload release was analyzed by LC-MS at various
timepoints (0, 1, 4, 7 and 24 hours).
[1285] The results are shown in FIG. 1 and demonstrate that the
steroid ADCs are resistant to exogenous cathepsin-mediated release
of payload from the ADC. This is in contrast to a known payload
linker (mcvcMMAE) ADC, where MMAE is released in significant
amounts upon cathepsin treatment. This data indicates that steroid
ADCs are much less susceptible to premature payload release that
results from cathepsin activity in circulation than known ADCs.
Indeed, steroid release is only observed with proteinase K, a
serine protease that displays broad cleavage specificity. This
indicates that the antibody portion of the steroid ADC needs to be
significantly catabolized prior to steroid linker cleavage and that
payload release can be restricted to an environment where digestion
of the antibody scaffold of the ADC can occur, such as the
lysosome.
Cathepsin B Digestion
[1286] A 0.2 mg/mL stock solution of cathepsin B (Sigma) was
prepared in buffer (25 mM Tris, 50 mM NaCl and 5% glycerol). To
generate a 10 .mu.g/mL working solution of cathepsin B, 5 .mu.l of
0.2 mg/mL cathepsin B stock was mixed with 95 .mu.l of activation
buffer (50 mM sodium acetate pH5, 1 mM EDTA, and 5 mM DTT) and
incubated at 37.degree. C. for 15 minutes. For ADC digestion, 20
.mu.l of 100 ug/mL ADC and 20 .mu.l of cathepsin B working solution
were mixed with 160 .mu.l dilution buffer (50 mM sodium acetate, 1
mM EDTA). The sample was incubated at 37.degree. C. with shaking,
and 40 .mu.l aliquots were removed after 0, 1, 4, 7, and 24 hours.
To each aliquot was added 160 .mu.l of quench solution (0.1% formic
acid; 1:1 MeOH:MeCN; 100 nM carbutamide), and released small
molecule was detected by LC-MS/MS as previously described.
Proteinase K Digestion
[1287] A 5 mg/mL stock of proteinase K (Sigma) was prepared in
deionized (DI) water. A 0.25 mg/mL working solution of proteinase K
was prepared by mixing 50 .mu.L of 5 mg/mL proteinase K with 950
.mu.l dilution buffer (1.times.HBSS and 1 mM EDTA). For ADC
digestion, 20 .mu.L of 100 ug/mL ADC and 40 .mu.l of proteinase K
working solution were mixed with 140 .mu.l dilution buffer. The
sample was incubated at 37.degree. C. with shaking, and 40 .mu.L
aliquots were removed after 0, 1, 4, 7, and 24 hours. To each
aliquot was added 160 .mu.l of quench solution (0.1% formic acid;
1:1 MeOH:MeCN; 100 nM carbutamide), and released small molecule was
detected by LC-MS/MS as previously described.
Example 77: In Vivo Stability of Anti-TNF-Alpha
Immunoconjugates
[1288] The susceptibility of the steroid ADC to undergo drug linker
loss was assessed in mice. MP-Ala-Ala-steroid was conjugated to
human IgG1 mAb (av. DAR 4) and incubated at pH 9 to catalyze
ring-opening hydrolysis of the thiosuccinimide ring. After
neutralization, the steroid ADC was injected in mice, and the
kinetics of drug linker loss were monitored over 7 days by
LC-MS.
[1289] In these experiments, ADC formulated in phosphate buffer
saline was dosed intravenously to 15 male DBA/1 mice at 5 mg/kg.
Three mice were sacrificed at 1 hr, 24 hr, 72 hr, 168 hr and 240 hr
post-dose. EDTA whole blood was collected and serum was prepared
for in vivo DAR analysis by mass spectrometry.
Serum Sample Pre-Dilution
[1290] Serum samples were diluted in horse serum (Life
technologies, 16050-122) based on total antibody concentrations of
ADC measured by total antibody ligand binding assay. Dilutions were
based on estimations of final concentration to a range of 10-30
.mu.g/mL, which is suitable for the magnetic beads upper limit of
binding capacity.
Immunoaffinity Affinity Purification
[1291] In a protein LoBind tube (Eppendorf North America), 350
.mu.L horse serum was added to 100 .mu.L of each pre-diluted ADC
serum sample to a total volume of 450 .mu.L, followed by addition
of 4 .mu.g of biotin-anti-human Fc antibody (2 .mu.L of biotin-anti
human at 2 mg/mL solution). Samples were incubated for 2 hours (hr)
at room temperature by shaking at 900 rpm on an orbital shaker. For
each serum sample, 50 .mu.L slurry of streptavidin coated magnetic
beads (Pierce, Cat#88817) was equilibrated with 0.1% Tween in PBS
buffer (PBST) in a LoBind tube. Phosphate Buffered Saline with
Tween 20 (PBST) buffer was removed by a pipette after pulling the
magnetic beads to the side of the LoBind tube by placing the LoBind
tube on a magnetic rack. Serum samples after 2 hr incubation with
anti-human capturing reagent were transferred to the LoBind tubes
containing equilibrated magnetic beads, and incubated at room
temperature for 1 hr at 900 rpm on an orbital shaker. Serum was
removed after magnetic bead incubation, and the magnetic bead was
washed thoroughly with 500 .mu.L PBST (3 times) followed by 500
.mu.L 5% MeOH in MilliQ water (3 times). Magnetic bead bound ADC
was released by incubating the magnetic beads with 100 .mu.L 0.5%
formic acid in 50% MeOH/MilliQ water for 15 minutes.
Reduction of Purified ADC
[1292] Released ADC was reduced by adding 10 .mu.L reducing reagent
(10 mM TCEP freshly prepared from powder purchased from Thermo
Scientific, with 10 mM EDTA in 2M pH7.5 Tris buffer) to 100 .mu.L
of sample and incubated at 37.degree. C. for 30 minutes.
LC/MS Analysis
[1293] Reduced samples (10 .mu.L) were injected into an Agilent
6550 QT of LC/MS system through a temperature controlled (5.degree.
C.) CTC autosampler. Sample elution was achieved on a Waters C-4,
3.5 .mu.m, 300 .ANG., 2.1.times.50 mm i.d. HPLC column. The mobile
phases were: A: 0.1% formic acid in water, and B: 0.1% formic acid
in MeCN; the flow rate was 0.45 mL/min; and the column compartment
was maintained at 40.degree. C.
[1294] The HPLC gradient was as follows:
TABLE-US-00046 Time (min) % A % B 0 95 5 0.6 95 5 1.1 10 90 2.2 10
90 2.4 95 5 3.5 95 5
[1295] High resolution MS analysis of reduced ADC was performed on
an Agilent 6550 quadruple time-of-flight (Agilent Technology, San
Clara, Calif.) equipped with a Dual Agilent Jet Stream electrospray
ionization (ESI) source operated in the positive ion mode. Mass
spectrometer was operated in the extended dynamic range (2 G Hz)
mode with a MS range up to 3,200 m/z. The primary ESI source was
used for LC/MS analysis, and the secondary ESI probe was used for
infusing calibration solution at 922.009798 m/z to achieve real
time MS calibration. The mass spectrometer was calibrated on a
daily basis. Typical mass errors of analytes relative to
theoretical masses were less than .+-.5 parts per million in daily
operations. MS data were processed using MassHunter Qual Browser
Build 5.0.
MS Spectrum Deconvolution
[1296] Maximum entropy method in the MassHunter Bioconfirm software
package was used to deconvolute the multiple charged ion mass
spectra to derive neutral molecular weight spectra. The intensity
of the deconvoluted peak was used to calculate DAR.
DAR Value Calculation from De-convoluted MS Spectrum
[1297] DAR values were calculated using de-convoluted MS peak
intensity based on the following equations:
DAR value from light chain (LC): LC DAR=(2.times.peak intensity of
LC )/((peak intensity of LC+peak intensity of LC ))
LC and LC are light chains with zero and one drug linker,
respectively. DAR value from heavy chain (HC):
HC DAR=2.times.(peak intensity of HC +2.times.peak intensity of HC
+3.times.peak intensity of HC )/(peak intensity of HC+peak
intensity of HC +peak intensity of HC +peak intensity of HC )
HC, HC , HC and HC are heavy chains with zero, one, two and three
drug linkers, respectively.
Total DAR=LC DAR+HC DAR
Results
[1298] The results are shown in FIG. 2. This example demonstrates
that minimal loss of drug linker is observed from steroid ADC over
7 days.
Example 78: Generation of Human and Mouse Transmembrane TNF-Alpha
GRE Reporter Cell Lines
[1299] In order to create a parental cell line, K562 cells were
seeded onto a 6 well dish (Costar: 3516) with 2 mL of complete
growth medium (RPMI, 10% FBS, 1% L-glutamine, 1% Na Pyruvate and 1%
MEM NEAA) at 500,000 cells per well for 24 hours at 37.degree., 5%
CO.sub.2. The next day, 1.5 .mu.g of pGL4.36[Luc2P/MMTV/Hygro]
(Promega: E316), 1.5 ug pGl4.75 [hRLuc/CMV] (Promega: E639A), and 3
.mu.l of PLUS reagent (Invitrogen: 10964-021) were diluted into 244
uL Opti-MEM (Gibco: 31985-070) and incubated at room temperature
for 15 minutes. The pGL4.36[luc2P/MMTV/Hygro] vector contains MMTV
LTR (Murine Mammary Tumor Virus Long Terminal Repeat) that drives
the transcription of the luciferase reporter gene luc2P in response
to activation of several nuclear receptors such as glucocorticoid
receptor and androgen receptor. The pGL4.75[hRluc/CMV] Vector
encodes the luciferase reporter gene hRluc (Renilla reniformis) and

transcription. After incubation, diluted DNA solution was
pre-incubated with 1:1 Lipofectamine LTX solution (Invitrogen:
94756) (13.2 .mu.l+256.8 .mu.l Opti-MEM) and incubated at room
temperature for 25 minutes to form DNA-Lipofectamine LTX complexes.
After incubation, 500 .mu.l of DNA-Lipofectamine complexes were
added directly to the well containing cells. K562 cells were
transfected for 24 hours at 37.degree., 5% CO.sub.2. After
incubation, cells were washed with 3 mL of PBS and selected with
complete growth medium containing 125 .mu.g/mL of hygromycin B
(Invitrogen: 10687-010) for two weeks. "K562

pGL4.36[Luc2P/MMTV/Hygro]_pGL4.75[hRLuc/CMV], were transfected with
the plasmid hTNF delta 1-12 C-Myc pcDNA3.1(-) plasmid construct.
This plasmid is pcDNA 3.1 (Thermofisher cat# V79020) encoding tace
resistant transmembrane TNF (i.e., SEQ ID NO:1 lacking amino acids
77-88). (See Perez C et al. Cell 63 (2): 251-8 (1990) discussing
tace resistant transmembrane TNF.) These cell lines were then used
in the TNF-alpha reporter assays described in the subsequent
examples.

steroid compound, or media alone and incubated for 48 hours at
37.degree., 5% CO.sub.2. After 48 hours of incubation, cells were
treated with 75 .mu.L of Dual-Glo Luciferase Assay System
(Promega-E2920) for 10 minutes and analyzed for luminescence using
the TopCount (PerkinElmer). Data were analyzed using a four
parameter curve fit to generate EC50 values. % maximum activation
was normalized to 100 nM dexamethasone, which was considered
maximum activation. The results using the murine TNF-alpha cell
line are shown in Table 12 below, and the results using the human
TNF-alpha cell line are shown in Table 13 below. In Table 12 below,
A refers to 8C11. In Table 13 below, A refers to adalimumab (SEQ ID

Activity of Anti-Human TNF Alpha Immunoconjugates in GRE Reporter
Assay
[1304] Anti-human TNF alpha immunoconjugates (also referred to as
anti-human TNF alpha ADCs, or anti-hTNF alpha steroid ADCs) were
tested for activity in the K562 parental GRE
(pGL4.36[luc2P/MMTV/hydgro]) and K562 hTNF delta 1-12 GRE
(pGL4.36[luc2P/MMTV/hydgro]) cell lines under conditions as
described in Example 79. The results shown in Table 15 indicate
that all anti-hTNF alpha steroid ADCs tested demonstrate potent
antigen-dependent activity dissociated from their activity on the
parental cell line.

Binding of Anti-Human TNF Alpha Immunoconjugates to Human TNF
Alpha
[1305] Binding kinetics of anti-h TNF alpha steroid ADCs to
recombinant soluble TNF.alpha. trimer were determined by surface
plasmon resonance-based measurements made on Biacore T200
instrument (GE Healthcare) at 25.degree. C. using either anti-human
Fc/anti-human F(ab').sub.2 capture (used for all ADCs except
affibody and ozoralizumab ADCs) or direct NHS/EDC mediated amine
coupling approach (used only for ozoralizumab ADC). Approximately
10000 RU of goat anti-human IgG Fc polyclonal antibody (Thermo
Fisher Scientific Inc., cat. No. 31125) or goat anti-human
F(ab').sub.2 polyclonal antibody (Jackson Immunoresearch
Laboratories, Inc. cat. No. 109-006-006) was diluted to 5 .mu.g/mL
in 10 mM sodium acetate (pH 4.5) and was immobilized across a CM5
biosensor chip using a standard amine coupling kit according to
manufacturer's instructions and procedures. Unreacted moieties on
the biosensor surface were blocked with 1M ethanolamine. For direct
amine coupling approach, approximately 750 RU of ozoralizumab
steroid conjugate was directly immobilized onto CM5 chip. Chip
preparation and binding kinetic measurements were made in the assay
buffer HBS-EP+ (10 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 3 mM EDTA, 0.05%
Tween 20). For binding kinetic measurements in capture format, each
assay cycle consisted of the following steps: 1) capture of test
ADC on test surface at a concentration of 0.5 .mu.g/mL and at a
flow rate of 5 .mu.L/min for 60 s; 2) analyte injection (human
TNF.alpha. or buffer only) over both reference and test surface for
300 s at 50 .mu.l/min, after which the dissociation was monitored
for 600 seconds at 50 .mu.l/min; 3) regeneration of capture surface
by 10 mM Glycine-HCl, pH 1.5 or 100 mM HCl (for directly coupled
ADC) injections over both reference and test surface. For binding
kinetics measurements in direct amine coupling format, only step 2)
and step 3) were performed. During the assay, all measurements were
referenced against the blank surface alone (i.e. with no captured
test antibody or immobilized nanobody) and buffer-only injections
were used for double referencing. TNF.alpha. injections ranged in
concentration from 50 nM to 0.39 nM in a 2-fold dilution series,
respectively. Data were processed and fitted globally to a 1:1
binding model using Biacore T200 Evaluation software to determine
the binding kinetic rate constants, k.sub.a (M.sup.-1s.sup.-1) and
k.sub.d (s.sup.-1), and the equilibrium dissociation constant
K.sub.D (M). Two independent experiments were conducted. Reported
values in Table 16 are averages from these experiments.

Example 81: Activity of Anti-hTNF Alpha Steroid ADCs in
Lipopolysacharride Stimulated Human PBMC Cytokine Release Assay
[1306] Primary human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs)
were purchased from Biological Specialty Corporation
(cat#214-00-10), washed in 50 mL PBS, re-suspended in FBS with 5%
DMSO, aliquoted and cryopreserved in liquid nitrogen until use. The
PBMCs were thawed, re-suspended in RPMI supplemented with 2% FBS,
and 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin, and plated into a cell assay plate
(Costar #3799). The cells were incubated with varying concentration
of anti-hTNF alpha steroid ADCs at 37.degree. C. and 5% CO.sub.2
for 4 hours. Cells were then stimulated with 100 ng/ml LPS for
overnight. On the following day, plate was spun for five minutes at
1000 rpm, and 100 .mu.L of supernatant media was directly
transferred to an additional 96-well plate and analyzed for IL-6
(MSD, #K151AKB) and IL-1 beta (MSD, #K151AGB) concentrations. The
dose response data were fitted to a sigmoidal curve using nonlinear
regression. and the IC50 values calculated with the aid of GraphPad
5.0 (GraphPad Software, Inc.). The results shown in Table 17
demonstrate that the anti-hTNF alpha steroid ADCs have potent
activity in inhibiting the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines
IL-6 and IL-1beta from activated primary immune cells.

Example 82: Activity of Anti-TNF-Alpha Immunoconjugate in
TNFa-Induced Cytotoxicity Assay in L929 Cells
[1307] L929 is a murine aneuploid fibrosarcoma cell line that is
sensitized by pretreatment with actinomycin D. Treatment with TNFa
initiates apoptosis and subsequent cell death. L929 cells in log
phase were harvested using trypsin 0.05%, washed twice with D-PBS
and counted by CEDEX. The cells were resuspended at 1E6 cell/mL in
assay media containing 4 .mu.g/mL actinomycin D and 50 .mu.L was
added to all wells. Anti-murine TNF alpha steroid ADC (anti-murine
TNF alpha 8C11 conjugated to Cpd 71; also referred to as anti-mTNF
alpha steroid ADC) and anti-murine TNF mAb (8C11) were diluted to a
4.times. concentration in assay media and serial 1:3 dilutions were
performed. Mouse TNF.alpha. was diluted to a 4.times. concentration
of 600 pg/mL. The anti-mTNF steroid ADC and anti-mTNF mAb (125
.mu.L) were added to the mTNF.alpha. (125 .mu.L) in a 1:2 dilution
scheme and allowed to incubate for 1 hour at room temperature,
gently shaking. The antibody/mTNF.alpha. (or ADC/mTNF.alpha.)
mixture was added to wells at 50 .mu.L/well in triplicate. The
plates were incubated for 20 hours at 37.degree. C., 5% CO.sub.2.
To quantify viability, 10 .mu.L of WST-1 reagent (Roche
cat#11644807001) was added to wells. Plates were incubated under
assay conditions for 3.5 hours, centrifuged at 500.times.g and 75
.mu.L supernatant transferred to an ELISA plate (Costar cat#3369).
The plates were read at OD 420-600 nm using a Spectromax 190 ELISA
plate reader. Data was analyzed and IC.sub.50 values calculated
using a sigmoidal dose response (variable slope) fit in GraphPad
Prism 5.
[1308] Anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC had comparable neutralizing
potency (IC.sub.50 1.9 nM) to unconjugated anti-mTNF alpha mAb
(IC.sub.50 1.5 nM).
[1309] Anti-human TNF alpha immunoconjugates were tested for
neutralizing activity under conditions described above. The results
are shown in Table 18 and indicate the anti-human TNF alpha
immunoconjugates tested demonstrate potent neutralization of human
TNF alpha.

Example 83: Binding of Anti-mTNF-Alpha Steroid ADC to Mouse Fcgamma
Receptors
[1310] SPR (surface plasmon resonance) based Biacore T200
instrument (GE Healthcare) was used to evaluate binding of
anti-mTNF-alpha steroid ADC (anti-mTNF 8C11 conjugated to Cpd 71)
and anti-mTNF-alpha mAb to recombinant mouse FcgRs (all R&D
Systems). The FcgRs were directly immobilized on the surface of the
flow cells two, three and/or four of the CM5 type S Biacore chip(s)
to achieve densities of .about.1000-2000 RU (resonance units).
Blank modified surface of the flow cell one of each Biacore chip
was used as a reference surface. Each experiment consisted of
association and dissociation phases. Association phase consisted of
titrating parental mAb and ADC over all flow cells at a flow rate
of 50 ul/min and concentrations of 4000, 2000, 1000, 500, 250, 125,
62.5, 31.25 and 0 nM for FcgRIIB and FcgRIII and 100, 50, 25, 12.5,
6.25, 3.13, 1.56 and 0 nM for receptors I and IV. Dissociation
phase consisted of the continuous flow of the running buffer
(HBS-EP+, pH 7.4, GE Healthcare) at the flow rate of 50 ul/min.
Association and dissociation phases were monitored for 5 min each
(receptors I and IV) or 1 min (receptors II and III). Chip surfaces
were regenerated with a 5 s pulse of 100 mM HCl at a flow rate of
100 ul/min after each binding cycle. Biacore Evaluation software
was used to fit the raw data to 1:1 (FcgRI and IV) or Steady State
(receptors IIB and III) binding models. Results are shown in Table
19. k.sub.a is the association rate constant (1/Ms); k.sub.d is the
dissociation rate constant (1/s); K.sub.D is the equilibrium
dissociation constant (M).

Example 84: Activity of Anti mTNF-Alpha Steroid ADCs in Contact
Hypersensitivity Model
[1311] Anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADCs were evaluated in an acute
contact hypersensitivity model, an elicitation of acute skin
inflammation using delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) response
(T-cell driven) via application of a sensitizing agent (fluorescein
isothiocyanate (FITC)). The efficacy of anti-mTNF alpha steroid
ADCs was measured by the ability to reduce ear swelling. The
steroid biomarkers corticosterone and procollagen type 1 N-terminal
propeptide (P1NP) were included as readouts to assess the putative
impact of anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC treatment on the
Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis and bone turnover
respectively.
Ear Swelling
[1312] On day 0 mice were placed under general anesthesia and the
abdomens were shaved. Using a micropipettor, mice were sensitized
by epicutaneous application of 400 uL of FITC solution (1.5%
solution in 1:1 acetone:DBP) on the abdomen. 6 days later mice were
dosed with vehicle or therapeutic agent 1 hour prior to ear
challenge with FITC. For ear challenge, mice were placed under
general anesthesia and were challenged with 20 .mu.l FITC applied
onto right ear. 24 hours after challenge mice were placed under
general anesthesia and their ear thickness is measured by caliper.
Difference between challenged and unchallenged ears was calculated.
72 hours after ear challenge, mice were injected with ACTH at 1 mpk
IP, and terminally bled at 30 min post-ACTH. Plasma is collected
and analyzed P1NP, corticosterone, free steroid, and large molecule
levels.
Quantification of Released Free Steroid and Endogenous
Corticosterone
[1313] Calibration curve of steroid was prepared in mouse plasma
with final concentrations from 0.03 nM to 0.1 .mu.M at 8 different
concentration levels. Corticosterone calibration curve ranging from
0.3 nM to 1 .mu.M final corticosterone concentrations was prepared
in 70 mg/mL bovine serum albumin solution in PBS buffer. A solution
of 160 .mu.L MeCN with 0.1% formic acid was added to 40 .mu.L study
plasma samples or calibration standards. Supernatants were diluted
with distilled water and 30 .mu.L final sample solution was
injected for LC/MS analysis.
[1314] Quantification of released free steroid and corticosterone
was conducted on an AB Sciex 5500 triple quadruple mass
spectrometer connected to a Shimadzu AC20 HPLC system interfaced
with an electrospray ionization source operating in positive mode.
A Waters XBridge BEH C18, 2.1.times.30 mm, 3.5 .mu.m column was
used for chromatography separation. The mobile phase A was 0.1%
formic acid in Milli Q HPLC water, and mobile phase B was 0.1%
formic acid in MeCN. A linear gradient from 2% of mobile phase B to
98% mobile phase B was applied from 0.6 to 1.2 minutes. The total
run time was 2.6 min at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. The mass
spectrometer was operated in positive MRM mode at source
temperature of 700.degree. C.
Quantification of Plasma P1NP
[1315] Quantification of plasma P1NP was conducted on a LC/MS
platform based on protein trypsin digestion. Plasma samples were
partially precipitated and fully reduced by adding MeCN/0.1M
ammonium bicarbonate/DTT mixture. Supernatant was collected and
alkylated by adding iodoacetic acid. The alkylated proteins were
digested by trypsin and resulting tryptic peptides were analyzed by
LC/MS. Calibration curve were generated by using synthetic tryptic
peptide spiked into horse serum (non-interfering surrogate matrix).
Stable isotope labeled flanking peptide (3-6 amino acids extension
on both termini of the tryptic peptide) was used as internal
standard added in the MeCN/DTT protein precipitation mixture to
normalize both digestion efficiency and LC/MS injection.
[1316] A Columnex Chromenta BB-C18, 2.1.times.150 mm, 5 .mu.m
column was used for chromatography separation. The mobile phase A
was 0.1% formic acid in Milli Q HPLC water and mobile phase B was
0.1% formic acid in MeCN. A linear gradient from 2% of mobile phase
B to 65% mobile phase B was applied from 0.6 to 3 min. The total
run time was 8 min at a flow rate of 0.45 mL/min. An AB Sciex
4000Qtrap mass spectrometer was used in positive MRM mode to
quantify P1NP peptides, at source temperature of 700.degree. C.
Quantification of Total ADC in Plasma
[1317] Concentrations of total antibody (ADC and backbone mAb) were
measured by ligand binding assay using Mesoscale Discovery (MSD)
platform. Biotin labeled mouse TNF was used as the capture reagent
for anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADCs and Sulfo-TAG conjugated goat
anti-mouse detection antibody was used for detection. A calibration
curve was generated by serial dilution of the ADC molecule in
matching matrix and QC samples were used to qualify the assay

[1319] These results demonstrate that anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADCs
can obtain an efficacious response equivalent to small molecule
steroid treatment while sparing the undesired effects on
corticosterone and P1NP.
[1320] An additional contact hypersensitivity (CHS) study was
conducted to address whether conjugation of the steroid payload to
anti-TNF mAb was required for enhanced efficacy. Mice were dosed
i.p. once according to the protocol described above with either
vehicle, anti-mTNF alpha mAb (10 mpk), anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC
(10 mpk) (cpd no 139) or a mixture of anti-mTNF alpha mAb co-dosed
(concurrently delivered in a single i.p. injection) with an
equivalent amount of small molecule steroid to match the ADC
stoichiometry. For a 10 mpk dose of anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC
with a DAR of 4, this was calculated to be 4 .mu.g of small
molecule steroid (Cpd. No. 42). The results shown in FIG. 9
demonstrate that anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC treatment had
significantly increased efficacy in reducing ear inflammation when
compared to the combination of anti-mTNF alpha mAb and small
molecule steroid or anti-mTNF alpha mAb alone.
Example 85: Activity of Anti-mTNF-Alpha Steroid ADCs in
Collagen-Induced Arthritis
[1321] The ability of anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC (Cpd. No. 137) to
impact disease was assessed in the collagen-induced arthritis (CIA)
model of arthritis.
[1322] In these experiments, male DBA/1J mice were obtained from
Jackson Labs (Bar Harbor, Me.). Mice were used at 6 to 12 weeks of
age. All animals were maintained at constant temperature and
humidity under a 12-hour light/dark cycle and fed with rodent chow
(Lab Diet 5010 PharmaServ, Framingham, Mass.) and water ad libitum.
AbbVie is AAALAC (Association for Assessment and Accreditation of
Laboratory Animal Care) accredited, and all procedures were
approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC)
and monitored by an attending veterinarian. Body weight and
condition were monitored, and animals were euthanized if exhibiting
>20% weight loss.
[1323] The male DBA/J mice were immunized intradermally (i.d.) at
the base of the tail with 100 .mu.L of emulsion containing 100
.mu.g of type II bovine collagen (MD Biosciences) dissolved in 0.1
N acetic acid and 200 .mu.g of heat-inactivated Mycobacterium
tuberculosis H37Ra (Complete Freund's Adjuvant, Difco, Laurence,
Kans.). Twenty-one days after immunization with collagen, mice were
boosted IP with 1 mg of Zymosan A (Sigma, St. Louis, Mo.) in PBS.
Following the boost, mice were monitored 3 to 5 times per week for
arthritis. Rear paws were evaluated for paw swelling using Dyer
spring calipers (Dyer 310-115)
[1324] Mice were enrolled between days 24 and 28 at the first
clinical signs of disease and distributed into groups of equivalent
arthritic severity. Early therapeutic treatment began at the time
of enrollment.
[1325] Animals were dosed once orally (p.o.) with steroid (Cpd. No.
3) (10 mpk) in a 0.5% HPMC/0.02% Tween80 vehicle [v/] or
intraperitoneal (i.p.) with anti-mTNF alpha mAb (10 mpk) (8C11) or
anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC (10 mpk) (Cpd. No. 137) in 0.9% saline.
Blood was collected for antibody exposure by tail nick at 24 and 72
hours after dose. Paws were collected at the terminal timepoint for
histopathology. Blood was collected at the terminal timepoint by
cardiac puncture for complete blood counts (Sysmex XT-2000iV).
Statistical significance was determined by ANOVA.
[1326] The results are shown in FIG. 3 and demonstrate that a
single dose of anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC can exhibit an extended
duration of action through amelioration of paw swelling for
.about.6 weeks compared to anti-mTNF alpha mAb or small molecule
steroid alone.
[1327] In a separate study designed to address the TNF-targeting
functionality of the anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC, animals were
dosed once i.p. with anti-mTNF alpha mAb (10 mpk) or anti-mTNF
alpha steroid ADC (10 mpk) (Cpd. No. 145) or with isotype steroid
ADC (10 mpk) (Cpd. No. 224):
##STR01071##
which recognizes the hen egg protein ovalbumin, an antigen not
expressed in mice. Both ADCs had equivalent drug load. Small
molecule steroid (3 mpk) was dosed orally once daily (q.d). The
results are shown in FIG. 10 and demonstrate that a single dose of
anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC has equivalent efficacy to small
molecule steroid dosed daily over a 21 day period. A single dose of
the non-targeted isotype steroid ADC had only partial efficacy,
similar to anti-mTNF mAb alone over the same time-frame.
Percentages denote % inhibition compared to vehicle. An evaluation
of the animals' body weights throughout the course of this study
(FIG. 11) revealed all the treatment groups with the exception of
the anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC group lost weight. In contrast, the
anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC treated mice exhibited normal weight
gain throughout the 21 day study.
Example 86: Activity of Various Anti-mTNF Alpha Steroid ADCs in
Collagen-Induced Arthritis
[1328] Several anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADCs with different steroid
payloads or drug:antibody ratios (DARs) were tested for efficacy in
a mouse model of arthritis. The studies were conducted according to
the procedure outlined in Example 85. The results are shown in
Table 21 below.

Example 87: Activity of Anti-hTNF-Alpha Immunoconjugates in Human
TNF Transgenic Tg1278TNF Knock-Out Mouse Model of Collagen Antibody
Induced Arthritis
[1329] The efficacy of anti-human TNF alpha ADCs was assessed in a
human TNFa transgenic mouse model of arthritis.
[1330] The Collagen Antibody-Induced Arthritis (CAIA) model (Moore,
A R J Transl Med 12:285 (2014)) was performed using the human TNF
transgenic Tg1278TNF knock-out mice as previously described (Moore
A et al. J Transl Med 12 (1): 285 (2014)). Eight mgs of a cocktail
of monoclonal antibodies that target different epitopes of collagen
type II (ArthritoMab.TM.) were administered intraperitoneally
(i.p.) to the mice on day 0. On day 3, the mice were injected i.p.
with 10 .mu.g LPS to boost the disease pathology. Animals were
evaluated for arthritic score daily starting from day 3 until day
14 of the study. Eight male mice were used per group and test
articles or PBS vehicle were administered i.p. twice a week for two
weeks.
[1331] The results are shown in FIG. 4 and demonstrate that
anti-human TNF alpha ADCs can significantly reduce disease score
compared to an anti-human TNF alpha mAb (adalimumab).
Example 88: Activity of Anti-mTNF Alpha Steroid ADCs on Peak
Inflammation
[1332] A mouse CIA experiment was conducted to establish the
efficacy of anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC on animals with peak
inflammation. For late therapeutic dosing, mice were enrolled in
the study at first clinical signs of disease and dosed 6 days after
enrollment. A group of animals was sacrificed at day 7 of disease
to provide a baseline for arthritic changes by micro-computed
tomography (.mu.CT) and histologic analysis at the time all other
groups were dosed. All animals were dosed once on day 6 with either
vehicle (0.9% saline), anti-mTNF alpha mAb (10 mpk) (8C11) or
anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC (10 mpk) (Cpd. No. 145) and sacrificed
on day 21. Arthritic hind paws were collected and .mu.CT analysis
was performed. The same paws were then used for histologic
evaluation. At the termination of the experiment, whole blood was
collected by cardiac puncture to evaluate complete blood counts
(CBCs).
Micro-Computed Tomography (.mu.CT)
[1333] Rear paws were removed intact at the tibia/fibula and fixed
in 10% Formalin. Paws were scanned by .mu.CT (Scanco Medical AG,
Micro-CT40) at 55 kVp at 145 .mu.A at High Resolution setting (1000
Projections/180.degree. at 2048.times.2048 Pixel Reconstruction)
using Isotropic Voxels and 300 millisecond integration time. A
cylindrical contour was manually drawn around region of interest
from the tibiotalar junction and extending into the ankle for 100
slices (1.8 mm). Evaluation was performed by Scanco software
utilizing 0.8 sigma gauss, with an upper threshold of 1000 and a
lower threshold of 320.
Histologic Evaluation
[1334] Rear paws from treated mice were immersion fixed in 10%
neutral buffered formalin and partially decalcified in Calrite
solution for 48 hours to allow trimming of the lateral and medial
edges of the tarsus. Paws were then placed back into Calrite for
.about.48 hours to complete decalcification. Samples were routinely
processed, embedded in paraffin in the sagittal plane, sectioned at
5 microns and stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Slides were
evaluated microscopically for the presence of inflammation/pannus
formation, neutrophil infiltration, bone erosion and cartilage
damage using a 0-4 scale: 0=none present, 1=mild, 2=moderate,
3=marked, 4=severe.
[1335] The results shown in FIG. 12 demonstrate that a single dose
of anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC can reverse established disease and
reduce paw swelling to near baseline. In contrast, a single dose of
anti-mTNF alpha mAb had a minimal effect on inflammation.
[1336] The effect of treatment on tarsal bone loss as measured by
.mu.CT is shown in FIG. 13. The results demonstrate that a single
dose of anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC administered at peak of
inflammation is able to significantly inhibit disease-mediated
joint bone erosion compared to anti-mTNF alpha mAb alone.
[1337] The results of histological evaluation of the joints of
treated CIA mice are shown in FIGS. 14-17. They demonstrate that a
single dose of anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC administered at peak
disease resulted in a significant decrease in inflammation, pannus
formation, bone erosion and cartilage damage by day 21 relative to
age-matched vehicle controls (p<0.001), and levels of disease
were equivalent to the levels observed in controls at baseline
(vehicle d6). In two of six paws evaluated, no disease was
detectable in the tarsus/phalangeal joints of anti-mTNF alpha
steroid ADC treated animals at day 21, as compared to 100%
incidence in mice at day 6 baseline (prior to treatment) and day 21
vehicle treated mice.
[1338] In contrast, a single dose of anti-mTNF alpha mAb at peak
disease did not inhibit inflammation, bone erosion, pannus
formation, or cartilage destruction, relative to age-matched
vehicle controls at d21. Levels of disease were more severe than
baseline controls, and a mild trend for improved inflammation was
observed.
[1339] Whole blood was analyzed to evaluate changes in peripheral
blood cell subsets with treatment. The results shown in FIG. 18-23
demonstrate that the increase in some peripheral blood cell
populations observed in diseased animals can be resolved with a
single dose of anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC. Statistically
significant reductions in overall white blood cells, neutrophils
and monocytes were observed with anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC
treatment.
Example 89: Comparison of Anti-mTNF-Alpha Steroid ADCs and
Anti-CD163 ADCs
[1340] To demonstrate the enhanced therapeutic efficacy of an
anti-TNF immunoconjugate in the treatment of inflammatory disease,
we compared its activity to an ADC targeting the hemoglobin
scavenger receptor CD163, a glucocorticoid immunoconjugate approach
described in the literature to have targeted anti-inflammatory
functionality (PCT Int. Appl. WO2011039510A2 by Graversen N J H, et
al.; Graversen J H et al., Mol. Ther. 20 (8): 1550-8 (2012)).
Generation of a Mouse CD163 GRE Report Cell Line
[1341] A parental cell line was created similar to that described
in Example 78 but with CHO-K1 cells instead of K562 cells. The
resulting parental cell line CHO
pGL4.36[Luc2P/MMTV/Hygro]_PGL4.75[hRLuc/CMV] was then transfected
with a plasmid which encodes mouse CD163 (Origene cat. no.
MR216798) under conditions described in Example 78. The resulting
cell line CHO mCD163 GRE (pGL4.36[luc2P/MMTV/Hygro]) was used to
test the in vitro activity of both anti-mTNF-alpha and anti-mouse
CD163 immunoconjugates (also referred to as anti-mCD163
immunoconjugates or anti-mCD163 steroid ADC).
Preparation of an Anti-Mouse CD163 Immunoconjugate
[1342] A chimeric rat anti-mouse CD163 mIgG2a/k antibody was
generated from the VH and VL sequence for clone 3E10B10 as
described (SEQ ID NO: 87/88 from PCT Int. Appl. WO 2011/039510A2).
This antibody was conjugated to Cpd. No. 99 using conditions
highlighted under the general cysteine conjugation protocol in
Example 36 to give a drug:antibody ratio (DAR) of 4.
Activity of an Anti-Mouse CD163 Immunoconjuate in Mouse CD163 GRE
Reporter Assay
[1343] The anti-mouse CD163 immunoconjugate was tested for activity
on the CHO mCD163 GRE (pGL4.36[luc2P/MMTV/Hygro]) cell line under
conditions described in Example 79. An anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC
(Cpd. No. 145) was included as a negative control. The results in
Table 22 demonstrate the anti-mouse CD163 immunoconjugate (Cpd. No.
223):
##STR01072##
shows antigen-dependent activity dissociated from the anti-mTNF
alpha steroid ADC on the mouse CD163 GRE cell line.

Activity of Anti-Mouse CD163 Immunoconjugate in Mouse
Collagen-Induced Arthritis
[1344] The ability of anti-mouse CD163 steroid immunoconjugate to
impact paw swelling was assessed in the collagen-induced arthritis
(CIA) model of RA. A control anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC (cpd 139)
with the same drug-linker and DAR as the anti-mCD163 steroid ADC
was also evaluated in the same study and the parental mAbs for both
ADCs were also included as treatment groups. The experiment was
conducted according to the procedure outlined in Example 85. The
results are shown in FIG. 24 and demonstrate that while the
anti-mCD163 steroid ADC initially reduces paw swelling in the first
few days after single dose treatment, this effect is transient. In
comparison, a single dose of anti-mTNF alpha steroid ADC is
sufficient to completely suppress inflammation through the duration
of the study
