From XenoMouse technology to panitumumab, the first fully human antibody product from transgenic mice 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Therapeutic monoclonal antibodies have shown limited efficacy and safety owing to immunogenicity of mouse sequences in humans. Among the approaches developed to overcome these hurdles were transgenic mice genetically engineered with a 'humanized' humoral immune system. One such transgenic system, the XenoMouse, has succeeded in recapitulating the human antibody response in mice, by introducing nearly the entire human immunoglobulin loci into the germ line of mice with inactivated mouse antibody machinery. XenoMouse strains have been used to generate numerous high-affinity, fully human antibodies to targets in multiple disease indications, many of which are progressing in clinical development. However, validation of the technology has awaited the recent regulatory approval of panitumumab (Vectibix), a fully human antibody directed against epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), as treatment for people with advanced colorectal cancer. The successful development of panitumumab represents a milestone for mice engineered with a human humoral immune system and their future applications. 相似文献

Secukinumab is a human monoclonal antibody that selectively targets interleukin-17A and has been demonstrated to be highly efficacious in the treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis, starting at early time points, with a sustained effect and a favorable safety profile. Biotherapeutics—including monoclonal antibodies (mAbs)—can be immunogenic, leading to formation of anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) that can result in unwanted effects, including hypersensitivity reactions or compromised therapeutic efficacy. To gain insight into possible explanations for the clinically observed low immunogenicity of secukinumab, we evaluated its immunogenicity potential by applying 2 different in vitro assays: T-cell activation and major histocompatibility complex–associated peptide proteomics (MAPPs). For both assays, monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs) from healthy donors were exposed in vitro to biotherapeutic proteins. DCs naturally process proteins and present the derived peptides in the context of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-class II. HLA-DR–associated biotherapeutic-derived peptides, representing potential T–cell epitopes, were identified in the MAPPs assay. In the T-cell assay, autologous CD4+ T cells were co-cultured with secukinumab-exposed DCs and T-cell activation was measured by proliferation and interleukin-2 secretion. In the MAPPs analysis and T-cell activation assays, secukinumab consistently showed relatively low numbers of potential T-cell epitopes and low T-cell response rates, respectively, comparable to other biotherapeutics with known low clinical immunogenicity. In contrast, biotherapeutics with elevated clinical immunogenicity rates showed increased numbers of potential T-cell epitopes and increased T-cell response rates in T-cell activation assays, indicating an approximate correlation between in vitro assay results and clinical immunogenicity incidence. 相似文献

The immunogenicity of clinically administered antibodies has clinical implications for the patients receiving them, ranging from mild consequences, such as increased clearance of the drug from the circulation, to life-threatening effects. The emergence of methods to engineer variable regions resulting in the generation of humanised and fully human antibodies as therapeutics has reduced the potential for adverse immunogenicity. However, due to differences in sequence referred to as allotypic variation, antibody constant regions are not homogeneous within the human population, even within sub-classes of the same immunoglobulin isotype. For therapeutically administered antibodies, the potential exists for an immune response from the patient to the antibody if the allotype of patient and antibody do not match. Allotypic distribution in the human population varies within and across ethnic groups making the choice of allotype for a therapeutic antibody difficult. This study investigated the potential of human IgG1 allotypes to stimulate responses in human CD4+ T cells from donors matched for homologous and heterologous IgG1 allotypes. Allotypic variants of the therapeutic monoclonal antibody trastuzumab were administered to genetically defined allotypic matched and mismatched donor T cells. No significant responses were observed in the mismatched T cells. To investigate the lack of T-cell responses in relation to mismatched allotypes, HLA-DR agretopes were identified via MHC associated peptide proteomics (MAPPs). As expected, many HLA-DR restricted peptides were presented. However, there were no peptides presented from the sequence regions containing the allotypic variations. Taken together, the results from the T-cell assay and MAPPs assay indicate that the allotypic differences in human IgG1 do not represent a significant risk for induction of immunogenicity. 相似文献

Since the first monoclonal antibody, muromonab-CD3, was approved for therapeutic use in 1986, numerous molecules have been
targeted using therapeutic antibody technology, resulting in 26 therapeutic antibodies being approved by the US FDA as of
November, 2009. Initial concerns regarding antibody drugs focused on immunogenicity, short serum half-life, and weak efficacy.
As the types of antibodies progressed from murine to chimeric, humanized, and fully human antibodies, great progress has been
made in immunogenicity and in vivo instability issues. For example, humanized antibodies, such as bevacizumab, exhibit less than 0.2% immunogenicity and a 20
day serum half-life, which is comparable to native immunoglobulin. Some recently developed antibodies are exceedingly efficacious
and have become first-line therapy for their target diseases. Here, we address and analyze all clinically approved therapeutic
antibodies to date by discussing immunogenicity, half-life, and efficacy. 相似文献

The use of antibodies in medicine and research depends on their specificity and affinity in the recogniton and binding of individual molecules. However, these applications are limited to the extracellular targets. Advances in antibody engineering has allowed the manipulation of the antibody segments containing the antigen-binding regions and generation of small fragments that can be stably expressed in cells. These entities are called intracellular antibodies or intrabodies and have being successfully applied, mainly in the scFv format, to inhibit the function of intracellular target proteins in specific cellular compartments. As new techniques to select and isolate intrabody fragments have been developed, intrabodies are beginning to be used to interfere with the function of a greater number of relevant disease targets. Just as monoclonal antibodies are opening a new era in human therapeutics, intrabodies promise a new prospective for antibody tools for therapy and research. Their varied mode of action gives intrabodies great potential in different approaches in the treatment of human diseases, as well as in the area of functional genomics for characterisation of novel gene products and subsequent validation as potential drug targets. While techniques for identifying functional intrabodies have improved, there are still many significant problems to be overcome before intrabodies can actually be used in treatment of diseases such as cancer, AIDS or neuro-degenerative disorders. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies represent an attractive therapeutic tool as they are highly specific for their targets, convey effector functions and enjoy robust manufacturing procedures. Humanization of murine monoclonal antibodies has vastly improved their in vivo tolerability. Humanization, the replacement of mouse constant regions and V framework regions for human sequences, results in a significantly less immunogenic product. However, some humanized and even fully human sequence-derived antibody molecules still carry immunological risk. to more fully understand the immunologic potential of humanized and human antibodies, we analyzed CD4+ helper T cell epitopes in a set of eight humanized antibodies. the antibodies studied represented a number of different VH and VL family members carrying unique CDR regions. In spite of these differences, CD4+ T cell epitopes were found only in CDR-sequence containing regions. We were able to incorporate up to two amino acid modifications in a single epitope that reduced the immunogenic potential while retaining full biologic function. We propose that immunogenicity will always be present in some antibody molecules due to the nature of the antigen-specific combining sites. A consequence of this result is modifications to reduce immunogenicity will be centered on the affinity-determining regions. Modifications to CDR regions can be designed that reduce the immunogenic potential while maintaining the bioactivity of the antibody molecule.Key words: therapeutic, antibody, immunogenicity, deimmunizing, epitope 相似文献

Macrophages are innate immune cells that derive from circulating monocytes, reside in all tissues, and participate in many states of pathology. Macrophages play a dichotomous role in cancer, where they promote tumor growth but also serve as critical immune effectors of therapeutic antibodies. Macrophages express all classes of Fcγ receptors, and they have immense potential to destroy tumors via the process of antibody-dependent phagocytosis. A number of studies have demonstrated that macrophage phagocytosis is a major mechanism of action of many antibodies approved to treat cancer. Consequently, a number of approaches to augment macrophage responses to therapeutic antibodies are under investigation, including the exploration of new targets and development of antibodies with enhanced functions. For example, the interaction of CD47 with signal-regulatory protein α (SIRPα) serves as a myeloid-specific immune checkpoint that limits the response of macrophages to antibody therapies, and CD47-blocking agents overcome this barrier to augment phagocytosis. The response of macrophages to antibody therapies can also be enhanced with engineered Fc variants, bispecific antibodies, or antibody-drug conjugates. Macrophages have demonstrated success as effectors of cancer immunotherapy, and further investigation will unlock their full potential for the benefit of patients. 相似文献

Recent ICH S6 guidance on preclinical safety evaluation of biotechnology derived biopharmaceuticals indicates that testing for anti-drug antibodies is not always required to establish the safety of a protein therapeutic. Most human protein therapeutics will induce a rapid and robust anti-drug antibody response in preclinical studies and the presence of high levels of circulating drug complicates the detection of anti-drug antibodies. The presence of anti-drug antibodies in preclinical studies does not predict if a protein therapeutic will be immunogenic in the clinic. When testing for anti-drug antibodies is warranted, there are a variety of analytical procedures that can be utilized, although each of these methods has advantages as well as limitations. Immunoassays can be used to identify if antibodies are present that bind to the therapeutic, and when necessary, biological assays can be used to identify if those antibodies neutralize the effect of the therapeutic. Under certain circumstances including intravenous dosing of a mAb therapeutic, anti-drug antibodies can form large immune complexes that can result in a safety issue. The value of immunogenicity data in preclinical studies is to aid in interpretation of other study data when necessary. 相似文献

Peptides are a growing class of agents whose therapeutic use originated with non-human treatments such as animal insulins. Xenopeptides continue to be explored for biotherapeutic development using genetic engineering, and through the rich resource of animal and plant polypeptides. One of the major concerns of therapeutic administration of xenopeptides is the potential for untoward immune responses that may lead to loss of drug efficacy or adverse events in recipients. An increased risk of immunogenicity is perceived with xenopeptides, however, human-derived therapies also induce antibody formation that in some cases has been associated with severe clinical sequelae. In this review, antibody responses to xenopeptides are highlighted looking at current hormone therapies used to treat endocrine disorders. Similar to clinical experiences with peptide-based agents in general, antibody responses against xenopeptide hormone therapies in majority of cases have been benign in nature with minimal clinical impact. 相似文献

Many therapeutic targets are cell surface receptors, which can be challenging antigens for antibody generation. For many therapeutic applications, one needs antibodies that not only bind the cell surface receptor but also are internalized into the cell. This allows use of the antibody to deliver various payloads into the cell to achieve a therapeutic effect. Phage antibody technology has proven a powerful tool for the generation and optimization of human antibodies to any antigen. While applied to the generation of antibodies to purified proteins, it is possible to directly select cell binding and internalizing antibodies on cells. Potential advantages of this approach include: cell surface receptors are in native conformation on intact cells while this might not be so for recombinant proteins; antibodies can be selected for both cell binding and internalization properties; the antibodies can be used to identify their tumor associated antigens; and such antibodies can be used for human treatment directly since they are human in sequence. This review will discuss the factors that impact the successful selection of cell binding and internalizing antibodies. These factors include the cell types used for selection, the impact of different phage antibody library formats, and the specific selection protocols used. 相似文献

Naturally occurring B-cell responses to breast cancer 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
As demonstrated by the effectiveness of trastuzumab, antibodies against breast cancer antigens are a potentially potent mechanism of tumor control. While trastuzumab is administered exogenously, its efficacy suggests that induction of very high titer antibody responses in vivo might also be therapeutic. Both naturally occurring and vaccine-induced antibody responses to some breast cancer antigens are associated with improved survival in some cases. However, the improvement in survival associated with antibody responses to breast cancer is modest, and tumor regression is not known to be associated with the natural antitumor antibody response, indicating a need for improved understanding of the natural antitumor antibody response. Naturally occurring B-cell responses in the form of serum antibody, tumor reactive lymph node B cells, and tumor-infiltrating B cells have been described, and a variety of breast tumor–associated antigens have been identified based on reactivity of patient antibodies. This review discusses current knowledge of humoral immunity to breast cancer with regard to specific antigens and the basis for their immunogenicity, and the contexts (tumor, lymph node, serum) in which responses are observed. With few exceptions, "tumor-associated antigens" identified with naturally occurring antibodies may be overexpressed on tumor but are in fact nonspecific autoantigens. This suggests that while overexpression or aberrant processing can increase immunogenicity in some cases, the immunogenicity of many or even most tumor-associated antigens is a function of expression in tumor or the result of ancillary tumor factors. 相似文献

Immunogenicity of therapeutic proteins is a nightmare for industrials because induced antibodies can neutralize the therapeutic activity and provoke autoimmune symptoms. It was believed that sequence humanization would be sufficient to tackle these problems but multiple clinical examples now demonstrate that humanization does not suffice to abrogate immune responses. In order to predict immunogenicity of therapeutic proteins, different approaches have been developed, among which the most relevant ones are based on the evaluation of the response of na?ve CD4 T lymphocytes specific for therapeutic proteins. Other approaches also exist or are in development. This review is the state of art in the different technologies that are proposed to predict immunogenicity of therapeutic proteins. 相似文献

Immunogenicity of engineered antibodies 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Administration of a therapeutic antibody can lead to an anti-antibody response (AAR). Much effort has been applied to engineering antibodies with as little as possible non-human structure to minimize such responses. Here, we review reported AAR to murine, mouse-human chimeric, and humanized antibodies. Replacement of mouse immunoglobulin constant regions with human ones effects the largest immunogenicity reduction. Humanization of variable domains effects a further decrease. 相似文献

The infusion of animal-derived antibodies has been known for some time to trigger the generation of antibodies directed at the foreign protein as well as adverse events including cytokine release syndrome. These immunological phenomena drove the development of humanized and fully human monoclonal antibodies. The ability to generate human(ized) antibodies has been both a blessing and a curse. While incremental gains in the clinical efficacy and safety for some agents have been realized, a positive effect has not been observed for all human(ized) antibodies. Many human(ized) antibodies trigger the development of anti-drug antibody responses and infusion reactions. The current belief that antibodies need to be human(ized) to have enhanced therapeutic utility may slow the development of novel animal-derived monoclonal antibody therapeutics for use in clinical indications. In the case of murine antibodies, greater than 20% induce tolerable/negligible immunogenicity, suggesting that in these cases humanization may not offer significant gains in therapeutic utility. Furthermore, humanization of some murine antibodies may reduce their clinical effectiveness. The available data suggest that the utility of human(ized) antibodies needs to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, taking a cost-benefit approach, taking both biochemical characteristics and the targeted therapeutic indication into account.Key words: immunogenicity, human anti-mouse antibody, cytokine release syndrome 相似文献

Background
Humans are genetically defective in synthesizing the common mammalian sialic acid N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc), but can metabolically incorporate it from dietary sources (particularly red meat and milk) into glycoproteins and glycolipids of human tumors, fetuses and some normal tissues. Metabolic incorporation of Neu5Gc from animal-derived cells and medium components also results in variable contamination of molecules and cells intended for human therapies. These Neu5Gc-incorporation phenomena are practically significant, because normal humans can have high levels of circulating anti-Neu5Gc antibodies. Thus, there is need for the sensitive and specific detection of Neu5Gc in human tissues and biotherapeutic products. Unlike monoclonal antibodies that recognize Neu5Gc only in the context of underlying structures, chicken immunoglobulin Y (IgY) polyclonal antibodies can recognize Neu5Gc in broader contexts. However, prior preparations of such antibodies (including our own) suffered from some non-specificity, as well as some cross-reactivity with the human sialic acid N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac).Methodology/Principal Findings
We have developed a novel affinity method utilizing sequential columns of immobilized human and chimpanzee serum sialoglycoproteins, followed by specific elution from the latter column by free Neu5Gc. The resulting mono-specific antibody shows no staining in tissues or cells from mice with a human-like defect in Neu5Gc production. It allows sensitive and specific detection of Neu5Gc in all underlying glycan structural contexts studied, and is applicable to immunohistochemical, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), Western blot and flow cytometry analyses. Non-immune chicken IgY is used as a reliable negative control. We show that these approaches allow sensitive detection of Neu5Gc in human tissue samples and in some biotherapeutic products, and finally show an example of how Neu5Gc might be eliminated from such products, by using a human cell line grown under defined conditions.Conclusions
We report a reliable antibody-based method for highly sensitive and specific detection of the non-human sialic acid Neu5Gc in human tissues and biotherapeutic products that has not been previously described. 相似文献18.
Recombinant biotherapeutic proteins such as monoclonal antibodies are mostly produced in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and pharmaceutical companies are interested in an appropriate platform technology for the development of large‐scale production processes. A major aim of our study was therefore to improve the secretion efficiency of a recombinant biotherapeutic antibody by optimizing signal peptides. Reporter molecules such as gaussia and vargula luciferase or secreted alkaline phosphatase are frequently used to this end. In striking contrast, we used a biotherapeutic antibody that was fused to 16 different signal peptides during our study. In this way, the secretion efficiency of the recombinant antibody has been analyzed by transient expression experiments in CHO cell lines. Compared to the control signal peptide, it was not possible to achieve higher efficiencies with signal peptides derived from a variety of species or even natural immunoglobulin G signal peptides. The best results were obtained with natural signal peptides derived from human albumin and human azurocidin. These results were confirmed by fed‐batch experiments with stably transfected cell pools, in which cell‐specific productivities up to 90 pg cell?1 day?1 and product concentrations up to 4 g L?1 could be determined using the albumin signal peptide. Finally, the applicability of the identified signal peptides for both different antibodies and non‐antibody products was demonstrated by transient expression experiments. In conclusion, it was found that signal peptides derived from human albumin and human azurocidin are most appropriate to generate cell lines with clearly improved production rates suitable for commercial purposes in a product‐independent manner.

In human pancreatic adenocarcinoma, alterations of glycosylation processes leads to the expression of tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens, representing potential targets for cancer immunotherapy. Among these pancreatic tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens, the J28 glycotope located within the O-glycosylated mucin-like C-terminal domain of the fetoacinar pancreatic protein (FAPP) and expressed at the surface of human tumoral tissues, can be a good target for anticancer therapeutic vaccines. However, the oncodevelopmental self character of the J28 glycotope associated with the low immunogenicity of tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens may be a major obstacle to effective anti-tumor vaccine therapy. In this study, we have investigated a method to increase the immunogenicity of the recombinant pancreatic oncofetal J28 glycotope by glycoengineering Galalpha1,3Galss1,4GlcNAc-R (alphaGal epitope) which may be recognized by natural anti-alphaGal antibody present in humans. For this purpose, we have developed a stable Chinese hamster ovary cell clone expressing the alphaGal epitope by transfecting the cDNA encoding the alpha1,3galactosyltransferase. These cells have been previously equipped to produce the recombinant O-glycosylated C-terminal domain of FAPP carrying the J28 glycotope. As a consequence, the C-terminal domain of FAPP produced by these cells carries the alphaGal epitope on oligosaccharide structures associated with the J28 glycotope. Furthermore, we show that this recombinant "alpha1,3galactosyl and J28 glycotope" may not only be targeted by human natural anti-alphaGal antibodies but also by the mAbJ28, suggesting that the J28 glycotope remains accessible to the immune system as vaccinating agent. This approach may be used for many identified tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens which can be glycoengineered to carry a alphaGal epitope to increase their immunogenicity and to develop therapeutic vaccines. 相似文献

Therapeutic proteins such as monoclonal antibodies, replacement enzymes and toxins have significantly improved the therapeutic options for multiple diseases, including cancer and inflammatory diseases as well as enzyme deficiencies and inborn errors of metabolism. However, immune responses to these products are frequent and can seriously impact their safety and efficacy. Of the many factors that can impact protein immunogenicity, this study focuses on the role of innate immune response modulating impurities (IIRMIs) that could be present despite product purification and whether these impurities can synergize to facilitate an immunogenic response to therapeutic proteins. Using lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and CpG ODN as IIRMIs we showed that trace levels of these impurities synergized to induce IgM, IFNγ, TNFα and IL-6 expression. In vivo, trace levels of these impurities synergized to increase antigen-specific IgG antibodies to ovalbumin. Further, whereas mice treated with human erythropoietin showed a transient increase in hematocrit, those that received human erythropoietin containing low levels of IIRMIs had reduced response to erythropoietin after the 1(st) dose and developed long-lasting anemia following subsequent doses. This suggests that the presence of IIRMIs facilitated a breach in tolerance to the endogenous mouse erythropoietin. Overall, these studies indicate that the risk of enhancing immunogenicity should be considered when establishing acceptance limits of IIRMIs for therapeutic proteins. 相似文献
