抗CDH3マウス抗体の選抜は、全長CDH3を発現するCHO細胞株(EXZ1501)を用いたフローサイトメトリで行った。すなわち、全長CDH3を発現するCHO細胞株(EXZ1501)を2mM EDTA-PBSで処理することで培養プレートから剥離後、1×106個/mLとなるようにFACS溶液(1%BSA,2mM EDTA,0.1%NaN3入りPBS)に懸濁した。この細胞懸濁液を50μL/ウェルとなるように96ウェルプレートに播種し、ハイブリドーマ培養上清を加えて4℃で60分間反応させ、FACS溶液(200μL/ウェル)で2回洗浄した後、AlexaFluor488標識抗マウスIgG・ヤギF(ab‘)2(インビトロジェン社)を加えて、4℃で30分間反応させた。その後FACS溶液で2回洗浄した後、フローサイトメトリを実施し、CDH3発現CHO細胞との反応が認められるハイブリドーマを選抜した。
正常ヒト組織および各種癌組織より、レーザーマイクロダイセクション法(Laser Capture Microdissection)で回収したサンプルよりISOGEN(ニッポンジーン社)を用い定法に従って全RNAを調製した。RNA各10ngをGeneChipU-133B(Affymetrix社)を用い、Expression Analysis Technical Manual(Affymetrix社)に準じて遺伝子発現を解析した。全遺伝子の発現スコアの平均値を100とし、癌細胞において発現が亢進する遺伝子を探索したところ、CDH3は正常ヒト組織では発現が限られ、肺癌、大腸癌、膵臓癌で発現が高かった(図3A、B)。また、分化度の異なる膵臓癌組織におけるCDH3mRNAの発現を検討したところ、分化度に関わらず発現が高い組織が認められた(図3C)。
癌臨床検体でのCDH3タンパク質の発現を確認するため、癌検体組織アレイで免疫染色を行った。癌細胞組織アレイは、上海芯超生物科技有限公司社(Shanghai Outdo Biotech Co.,Ltd.)製の、膵癌(腺癌)、肺癌(腺癌)、肺癌(扁平上皮癌)および大腸癌(腺癌)を使用した。
図4に結果を示す。癌細胞は抗CDH3抗体で染色され、正常細胞は染色されなかった。
CDH3抗体を産生するマウスハイブリドーマ細胞から、細胞質に存在するRNAをGough, Rapid and quantitative preparation of cytoplasmic RNA from small numbers of cells, Analytical Biochemisty, 173, p93-95 (1988)(非特許文献10)により記載されている方法(ただし、この論文に記されている溶解緩衝液のかわりに別のTNE緩衝液 25mM Tris-HCl,pH7.5;1%NP-40;150mM NaCl;1mM EDTA,pH8.0を用いた)に従って単離した。具体的な操作方法としては、5×106個のハイブリドーマ細胞を0.2mLのTNE緩衝液に懸濁して細胞膜を溶解後、遠心により細胞核を除去した。得られた約0.2mL細胞質上清に0.2mLの抽出緩衝液(10mM Tris-HCl,pH7.5;0.35M NaCl;1%(w/v)SDS;10mM EDTA,pH8.0;7M尿素)を加えた。この混合物をフェノールおよびクロロホルムで抽出し、得られたRNA溶液にキャリアとしてグリコーゲン(ロッシュ、Cat No.901393)を加えてから、エタノールで沈澱させた。次にRNA沈殿物を、細胞質RNA濃度が0.5~2μg/μLになるように10~50μLの滅菌蒸留水を加えて溶解した。
一本鎖cDNAを合成するため、前記のように調製した細胞質RNAの0.5~3μgを50mM Tris-HCl,pH8.3(室温);75mM KCl;3mM MgCl2;10mM DTT、100ngのランダムプライマー、0.5mM dNTP、200ユニットのSuperscriptII(逆転写酵素、インビトロジェン社)を含む20μL反応混合液を調製し、42℃で50分間インキュベートした。このように合成したcDNAライブラリーをポリメラーゼ連鎖反応(PCR)法の鋳型として直接使用した。
抗CDH3マウス抗体可変領域の配列を決定するため、実施例7で得られたcDNAライブラリーをテンプレートとして、PCR法により抗CDH3マウス抗体可変領域の遺伝子増幅を実施した。プライマーは全て北海道システムサイエンス株式会社に合成依頼し、以下に記載するような組み合わせで実施した。

(1)抗CDH3抗体の一過性発現
抗CDH3抗体の一過性発現にはFreeStyle(ライフテクノロジーズ社)を用いた。遺伝子導入用浮遊細胞である293-F(ライフテクノロジーズ社)は前日に継代した。トランスフェクション当日、一種類の抗体発現には、1x106細胞/mLの細胞濃度に調製した400mLの細胞懸濁液を準備した。これに抗体重鎖発現ベクター100μg及び軽鎖発現ベクター100μgの合計200μgのプラスミドをOptiProSFMに懸濁した溶液(I)を調製した。次に200μLのMAX reagentを8mLのOptiPRO SFMに加えて溶液(II)とした。溶液(I)と溶液(II)を混合して室温で10分から20分静置した。この合計16mLの反応液を293-F細胞を懸濁した400mLの293発現培地に加え、6日から7日間37℃、8%CO2で細胞培養震盪機TAITEC BioShaker BR-43FLで培養した。6日から7日間後、それぞれの組換え抗体を含む培養上清を回収し、これを用いて精製をおこなった。
培養上清に含まれるIgG抗体タンパク質は、AKTAprime(GEヘルスケア社)を用いたAb-Capcher ExTra(プロテノバ)アフィニティーカラムで精製した。得られたピークフラクションは、溶媒としてダルベッコのPBSで平衡化したセファクリルS-300カラムによるゲルろ過をして、さらに精製した。精製したIgG抗体タンパク質の定量は、吸光係数を用いて算出した。IgG抗体の吸光係数はEXPASYのProtParam(http://web.expasy.org/protparam/)に各抗体の全アミノ酸配列を用いて計算して求めた。
遺伝子導入したCHO細胞の培養上清をELISAにより測定して、キメラ抗体が生産されていることを確認した。キメラ抗体を検出するため、プレートをヤギ抗ヒトIgG(H+L)(マウス、ウサギ、ウシ、マウスIgGに対して吸収済み)(コスモバイオ:AQI, Cat A-110UD)でコートした。ブロックした後、抗CDH3キメラ抗体産生CHO細胞からの培養上清を段階希釈し、各ウエルに加えた。プレートをインキュベーション、および洗浄後、ヤギ抗ヒトIgG(H+L)(マウス、ウサギ、ウシ、マウスIgGに対して吸収済み)-HRP(コスモバイオ:AQI,Cat.A-110PD)を加えた。インキュベーション及び洗浄の後、TMB発色液(エア・ブラウン社、Cat.TM4999)を加えた。さらにインキュベーションした後、反応を停止しそして450nmにおける吸光度を測定した。標準として精製ヒトIgGを用いた。
実施例10に示した配列を持つ抗体は、その結合活性をフローサイトメトリで評価した。
反応対象となる細胞株(CDH3の高発現が確認されているNCI-H358細胞株)を2mM EDTA-PBSで処理することにより培養プレートから剥離後、1×106個/mLとなるようにFACS溶液に懸濁した。この細胞懸濁液を50μL/ウェルとなるように96ウェルプレートに播種し、精製したキメラ抗体を10μg/mLになるように添加し、4℃で60分間反応させた。FACS溶液(150μL/ウェル)で2回洗浄した後、AlexaFluor488標識抗ヒトIgG・ヤギF(ab‘)2(インビトロジェン社)4μg/mlを加えて、4℃で30分間反応させた。その後FACS溶液で2回洗浄した後、フローサイトメトリを実施した。
DM1SMeは、米国特許第5,208,020号(特許文献10)および米国特許6,333,410B1号(特許文献11)に記載されたように調製した。合成は株式会社シンスタージャパンに委託した。その構造式を図6に示す。
1.結合薬剤の還元処理
エタノール300μLで溶解した0.78mgのDM1SMeと50mMリン酸カリウム緩衝液(pH7.5)180μL及びTCEP Solution(Bond Breaker、サーモフィッシャーサイエンティフィック社)20μLを混合し、窒素雰囲気下、室温で30分以上反応させ、薬剤を還元した。
還元薬剤はHPLCを使用して精製した後に溶媒を留去し、10mg/mLになるようにジメチルアセトアミドに溶解した。
1mg/mL抗体にモル比30倍過剰となる量のsulfo-SMCC(PIERCE社)を加え、30℃、1時間反応させた。
過剰な架橋剤を除くため、50mMリン酸カリウム、50mM NaCl、2mM EDTA(pH6.5)で平衡化した脱塩カラムで脱塩処理(ZebaSpinColumn、 サーモフィッシャーサイエンティフィック社)した。
1mg/mLのマレイミド化した抗体と、結合したマレイミド基数の1.7倍に相当する還元薬剤とを50mMリン酸カリウム、50mM NaCl、2mM EDTA(pH6.5)中で、室温にて一晩反応させた。その後、過剰な薬剤をゲルろ過操作により除いた。
抗体当たりの薬剤結合数は、252nm及び280nmの吸光度を測定することで決定した。決定方法は(J.Med.Chem.,49,4392-4408(2006))(非特許文献12)、及びMethods.Mol.Biol.525、p445-67(2009)(非特許文献21))に記載の方法を参考に、吸光係数も記載の値(εAb280=223,000M-1cm-1, εAb252=82,510M-1cm-1, εDM1280=5,180M-1cm-1, εDM1252=26,160M-1cm-1)を用いて行った。
薬剤結合抗体の細胞傷害性と特異性はWST-8を発色基質とした細胞増殖測定試薬(同仁化学研究所社,Cell counting assay kit-8)を使用して評価した。
即ち、各種癌細胞株とヒト化抗体薬剤コンジュゲートを任意の量共存させ、37℃で3日間、5%CO2環境下でインキュベートした。培地はFBSを添加した各細胞株所定のものとした。その後、細胞増殖測定試薬を添加放置後、A450/620の吸光度を測定し、癌細胞株のみで抗体を加えないウェルより得られた吸光度の値を100%としたときの相対的な値を細胞生存率として表記した。
図7Bでは、細胞株としてHCC1954、抗体薬剤コンジュゲートとしてPPAT-076-44Hdに薬剤を結合したものを用い、図7Cでは細胞株としてHCC70、抗体薬剤コンジュゲートとしてPPAT-076-44Hdに薬剤を結合したものを用いた。両細胞株ともにCDH3が発現するため、PPAT-076-44Hdの薬剤コンジュゲートは細胞傷害性を示す。
図7Dでは、細胞株は表1に記したものを用い、抗体薬剤コンジュゲートとして、PPAT-076-44Hdに薬剤を結合したものを用いた。薬剤は、それぞれ実施例15に記載した方法で結合した。表1に記した細胞株のmRNAシグナル値は公開データベース(https://cabig-stage.nci.nih.gov/community/caArray_GSKdata/)から平均値を取得し、シグナルの小さなもの(NCIH1930, SW962)はCDH3発現陰性対照として試験した。CDH3が発現する細胞株は癌腫に関わらず、細胞増殖が阻害された。
いずれの薬剤コンジュゲートもDARは3~4のものを用いた。
ヒト化抗体(PPAT-076-44Hb、及びPPAT-076-44Hd)の抗体薬剤コンジュゲートによる腫瘍縮小効果を、乳がん細胞株HCC1954を移植したゼノグラフトモデルで確認した。
実施例16の方法で定量した両抗体薬剤コンジュゲートの薬剤結合数(DAR)は、PPAT-076-44Hb(DAR3.69)、PPAT-076-44Hd(DAR3.51)であった。
担癌は、まず抗アシアロGM1抗体(WAKO 014-09801)を、大塚蒸留水1mLで溶解後、大塚生理食塩水4mLを加えて全量5mLとした後、この溶液をマウス1匹あたり100uL腹腔内に投与した。次にHCC1954は10%FBS含有RPMI1640培地を用いて培養し、SCIDマウス(メス、日本クレア)の右腹側部皮下に5x106個/マウスになるように移植した 。
試験は各群5匹とし、5mg/kgで週に1度、計2回尾静脈より投与を行なった。
腫瘍体積を測定した結果を図8に示す。図8に示す通りヒト化抗体による抗体薬剤コンジュゲートは高い抗腫瘍効果を示した。
ヒト化抗体(PPAT-076-44Hb)とキメラ化抗体(PPAT-076-44C)の抗体薬剤コンジュゲートによる腫瘍縮小効果を、乳がん細胞株HCC70を移植したゼノグラフトモデルにて確認した。
両抗体薬剤コンジュゲートのDARは、PPAT-076-44Hb(DAR2.90)、PPAT-076-44C(DAR3.07)であった。
担癌は、抗アシアロGM1抗体(WAKO 014-09801)を、大塚蒸留水1mLで溶解後、大塚生理食塩水4mLを加えて全量5mLとした後、この溶液をマウス1匹あたり100uL腹腔内に投与した。次にHCC70は10%FBS含有RPMI640培地を用いて培養し、SCIDマウス(メス、日本クレア)の右腹側部皮下に5x106個/マウスになるように移植した。
試験は各群5匹とし、ヒト化抗体コンジュゲートは0.6、3.0あるいは15mg/kg、キメラ化抗体コンジュゲートは3.0mg/kg、薬剤非結合のヒト化抗体(Naked)は15mg/kgの各用量で週に1度、計2回投与を行なった。腫瘍体積を測定した結果を図9に示す。図9に示す通り、ヒト化抗体による抗体薬剤コンジュゲートは、キメラ化抗体による抗体薬剤コンジュゲートに比して高い抗腫瘍効果が繰り返し示された。
ヒト化抗体(PPAT-076-44Hd)とキメラ化抗体(PPAT-076-44C)の抗体薬剤コンジュゲートによる腫瘍縮小効果を、乳がん細胞株HCC70を移植したゼノグラフトモデルにて確認した。
担癌は実施例19と同様に行ない、ヒト化抗体コンジュゲートは0.6、3.0あるいは15mg/kg、キメラ化抗体コンジュゲートは3.0mg/kg、薬剤非結合のヒト化抗体(Naked)は15mg/kgの各用量で週に1度、計2回尾静脈より投与を行なった。試験は各群5匹とした。両抗体薬剤コンジュゲートのDARは、PPAT-076-44C(DAR3.07)、PPAT-076-44Hd(DAR2.98)だった。
腫瘍体積を測定した結果を図10に示す。図10に示した通り、ヒト化抗体は薬剤を結合する事で高い抗腫瘍効果を示し、用量に依存した抗腫瘍効果が確認された。また同じ投与量(3.0mg/kg)においては、実施例19と同様にキメラ化抗体の抗体薬剤コンジュゲートに比して高い抗腫瘍効果が再度示された。
本願発明の抗体薬剤コンジュゲートの腫瘍増殖抑制能を、肺がん細胞株OKa-C-1(独立行政法人医薬基盤研究所、JCRB1343)を移植したゼノグラフトモデルで確認した。担癌は、OKa-C-1を10%FBS含有RPMI1640培地を用いて培養し、SCIDマウス(メス、日本クレア)の右腹側部皮下に6.5x106個/マウスになるように移植した。ヒト化抗体コンジュゲートは15mg/kgの用量で週に1度、計2回尾静脈より投与を行なった。試験は各群3匹とした。ここではヒト化抗体としてPPAT-076-44Hdを使用し、それぞれに実施例15に記載した方法で薬剤を結合した。各抗体分子当たりの平均薬剤結合数(DAR)を実施例16に記載した方法で定量したところ、DARは3.04だった。腫瘍体積を測定した結果を図11に示す。図11に示した通り、ヒト化抗体は薬剤を結合する事で、乳癌細胞株に対するものと同様に高い抗腫瘍効果が確認された。
(1)CDH3N末部分長タンパク質の発現ベクター作製
取得したCDH3抗体の反応性を確認するため、CDH3抗原のN末端領域をマウスIgG2aのFc部分と連結した融合蛋白質を調製した。融合タンパク質のcDNA配列は配列番号70、アミノ酸配列は配列番号71に記載した。シグナルペプチドは抗体κ鎖のものを使用し、サブクローニングのために制限酵素部位を5プライム側にNheIを、3プライム側にEcoRI部位を付加した(米GenScript社で合成)。これをNheIとEcoRIで消化した哺乳類用発現ベクターのpCAGGS、あるいは遺伝子増幅用にマウスDHFR遺伝子を組み込んだpCAGGS-DHFRに組み込んだ。
一過性発現はライフテクノロジー社のフリースタイルを用いた。生産細胞にはライフテクノロジー社の293Fを使用し、遺伝子導入試薬はフリースタイル・マックス・トランスフェクション試薬(ライフテクノロジー社)を用いた。Fc融合可溶性抗原の遺伝子を導入した293Fは、CO2濃度を制御できるタイテック製の震盪機で4~7日間培養して生産した。生産した融合蛋白質はプロテインAセファロース(プロテノバ社)カラムで精製した。一過性発現で発現・精製した抗原のCBB染色図を図12Aに示し、図12Bに市販CDH3抗体(BD BIOSCIENCE社、及びR&D Systems社)を1次抗体として用いた染色像を示す。2次標識抗体にはAnti Mouse IgG F(ab’)2-HRP(goat IgG)(CAPPEL #55553)を用いた。
CDH3N末部分長タンパク質をPBSで2.5μg/mLとし、96ウェルプレートに100μL/ウェルで分注して、4℃で一晩静置した。翌日、ウェル内の溶液を捨て、Buffer A: 50mM Tris-HCl/150mM NaCl/1mM CaCl2/0.05% Tween20 (pH7.5)で洗浄した。次に被検物質(抗CDH3抗体)を希釈系列を作って100μL/ウェルで分注し、室温1時間震盪した。溶液を捨て、Buffer Aで洗浄した後、HRP標識抗体(HRP-goat anti human IgG (H+L) (absorbed with mouse, rabbit,bovine IgG) (American Qualex International, cat. A-110PD))をbufferAで10,000倍希釈したものを調製し、100μL/ウェルで分注し、室温1時間震盪した。Buffer Aで洗浄した後、TMB発色液を100μL/ウェルで加え、暗所で15分静置して発色を行った。停止液を100μL/ウェルで加えた後、プレートリーダーで450nmの吸光度を測定した。結果を図13に示す。披検物質としてPPAT-076-44Hb、及びPPAT-076-44Hdを用いた。
標識に用いる抗体を標識用緩衝液(50mM NaHCO3, 0.5M NaCl pH8.5)に置換する。抗体1mgに対し、25mM Alexa488(1mgをDMF62.1μlに溶解, ライフテクノロジー社)0.5μlを添加して、遮光下室温で1時間静置する。その後、PBSに緩衝液を交換した。
ヒト化が親和性に及ぼす影響をフローサイトメーター(FACS)を用いた競合試験で確かめた。測定は希釈系列を作った被験抗体、CDH3が発現している細胞株、及び被験抗体と競合する一定量のAmaxa488標識抗体を共存させて、室温1時間反応、FACS用液で洗浄後、FACS測定を行なった。各抗体濃度のGEO Mean値から、競合抗体のみのGEO Mean値を100%とした場合の阻害率を算出してIC50を求め、これを親和性の指標とした。
被験抗体と競合する抗体として、NITE BP-989細胞産生物から精製したマウス抗体を実施例24の方法で標識し、被験抗体としてPPAT-076-44Hd、PPAT-076-44C、及びPPAT-076-44Mを用いた。その結果を図14に示す。被験抗体は全てAlexa488標識抗体と競合するがその度合いが異なり、マウス及びキメラ化抗体に比して、本願のヒト化抗体(PPAT-076-44Hd)の親和性度合いが向上している事が示された。
本願発明のヒト化抗体に結合した平均薬剤結合数(DAR)が親和性に及ぼす影響を実施例25と同じくFACSを用いた競合試験で確かめた。抗体薬剤コンジュゲートは、実施例15に記載した方法で、平均DAR0~8の範囲で調製した。DARは実施例16に記載した方法で定量した。
細胞株はNCI-H358を用い、PPAT-076-44Hb及びPPAT-076-44Hdを測定する時は、競合抗体として実施例24の手順でAlexa488を標識したNITE BP-989細胞産生物から精製したマウス抗体を用い、実施例25で示したのと同じFACS競合試験により、親和性の指標として各IC50値を算出した。
図15(A:PPAT-076-44Hb、B:PPAT-076-44Hd)に示した比較は、薬剤を結合していない各抗体のIC50値を1とした相対値を表している。いずれのヒト化抗体も薬剤が結合する事で親和性は低下しない事を示している。
担癌モデル株のCDH3タンパク質の発現を確認するため、担癌組織切片の免疫染色を行った。マウス皮下に細胞株を移植して所定日数経過させた担癌マウスから得た腫瘍組織を脱パラフィン処理し、オートクレーブで121℃、15分賦活化を行った。0.3% H2O2を含むメタノールにて内在性ペルオキシダーゼの不活性化、10%ヤギ血清でブロッキング処理後、抗CDH3抗体610227(BD BIOSCIENCE社)に4℃一晩反応させた。抗体溶液を洗い流した後に、ヒストファインシンプルステインMAX-PO二次抗体試薬と室温1時間反応させた。ヒストファインDAB基質キットを添付プロトコールのとおり使ってDAB発色を行い、ヘマトキシリンエオジン溶液にて核染色を行った。図16(A:HCC1954、B:HCC70、C:OKa-C-1)に結果を示す。担癌腫瘍は細胞膜部分が抗CDH3抗体で染色された。
