Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of biomedicine, in particular to an antibody drug conjugate formed based on one or more cysteine residues or cysteine derivative residues as a drug linking carrier and its application.
  • the carrier can simultaneously couple one or more drugs to the limited attachment sites of the antibody as required.
  • Antibody-drug conjugate refers to a type of biological drug that connects a biologically active drug (Drug) and an antibody (Antibody) through a chemical linker (Linker).
  • ADC is like a precision-guided weapon system, in which biologically active drugs are used as anti-personnel ammunition to accurately strike diseased cells under the guidance of antibodies. Therefore, ADC combines the dual advantages of high efficiency of cytotoxic drug molecules and high targeting of antibodies. As of July 2019, only 6 antibody conjugate drugs have been approved globally (Table 1).
  • the actual final ADC product is an ADC mixture with different numbers of drugs connected to the antibody and different sites. Uniformity poses great challenges to the production and quality control of drugs.
  • indicator-DAR value drug-antibody ratio
  • the average DAR value is too small, there are too few drug molecules on the antibody, which will affect the overall drug efficacy. If the average DAR value is too large and too many drug molecules are loaded on the antibody, the ADC will become unstable as a whole, change its pharmacokinetic parameters, and may lead to increased plasma clearance, shortened half-life, and systemic Increased drug toxicity.
  • ADC has three classic coupling methods, one is amino coupling, one is sulfhydryl coupling, and the third is cross-link.
  • Amino coupling is to couple the drug to the lysine (Lys) residue of the antibody through a linker.
  • the first generation ADC drug Mylotarg uses the amino coupling method, but IgG includes nearly a hundred lysines , The coupling position may occur on the nearly 40 exposed lysine residues on the antibody light chain and heavy chain, and each antibody will be coupled with multiple small molecule drugs of varying numbers through lysine coupling Therefore, ADC drugs obtained by amino coupling are highly heterogeneous and have very poor product uniformity, which seriously affects the PK/PD and treatment window of the drug (see http://www.sohu.com/a/277791166_464404).
  • Sulfhydryl coupling is to first open the interchain disulfide bond in the antibody to form free cysteine (Cys) residues, and then couple with a linker-drug complex that can pair with cysteine residues. Since there are only 4 pairs of interchain disulfide bonds on IgG, 8 free cysteine residues will be formed after all the interchain disulfide bonds are opened. Therefore, the ADC formed by single sulfhydryl coupling has an average DAR value of 0 -8. Although sulfhydryl coupling can better control the number of connections on each antibody, the breaking of the interchain disulfide bond will greatly reduce the stability of the antibody.
  • Bridging coupling is a new coupling method developed on the basis of sulfhydryl coupling. Like sulfhydryl coupling, it first opens the interchain disulfide bond in the antibody to form two free cysteine residues. Since there are only 4 pairs of interchain disulfide bonds on an antibody, 8 free cysteine residues will be formed when the interchain disulfide bonds are all opened. Acid residues, so ADC formed by bridge coupling has an average DAR value of 0-4.
  • bridge coupling can not only better control the uniformity of the product, but also greatly provide coupling
  • the stability of the rear antibody, but the maximum DAR value of the bridge coupling method is 4, that is, an antibody can be coupled with a maximum of 4 drugs.
  • the antigen expression level required for effective ADC activity is based on Different antigen characteristics vary.
  • ADC needs at least 104 antigen / cell, to ensure that the number of fatal deliver cytotoxic drugs.
  • the antigen targeted by the antibody portion of the ADC should be uniformly expressed on the surface of tumor cells and have a high copy number (>10 5 /cell).
  • Tumor cell surface antigens are usually only a limited number (approximately 5000 to 106 antigen / cell), and the average of 3.5-4 DAR ADC (e.g. DAR Brentuximab vedotin average value of 4, an average value of 3.5 DAR Trastuzumab emtansine) ,
  • DAR ADC e.g. DAR Brentuximab vedotin average value of 4, an average value of 3.5 DAR Trastuzumab emtansine
  • small molecule drugs with particularly strong toxicity are often used clinically.
  • the small molecule drugs used in ADC mainly include auristatin, maytansine, calicheamicin, doxorubicin, etc. These small molecule drugs are compared with traditional chemotherapy drugs. It has a stronger killing effect on cancer cells, and usually an average dose of four to six molecules can kill target cells. However, once these particularly toxic small molecule drugs are off-target in the body, they can be fatal to patients.
  • the IC 50 of DM1 to many cells is about 10 -11 mol/L
  • the IC 50 of DM4 is about 10 -12 mol/L
  • ADC research new drugs invesligational new drugs, IND
  • IND invesligational new drugs
  • toxicity of ADC drugs in animals is mainly hematopoietic system toxicity, liver toxicity and reproductive toxicity, and some also have skin toxicity and Nephrotoxicity, in which the toxicity of the hematopoietic system, liver and reproductive system is directly related to small molecule cytotoxic drugs

  • linkers or “linkers of antibody-drug conjugates” can be divided into two categories: non-cleavable linker and cleavable linker .
  • the non-breakable linker is a relatively stable linker whose structure is difficult to degrade and break in the in vivo environment.
  • the drug release mechanism is: After the conjugate binds to the antigen and is endocytosed by the cell, the antibody is enzymatically digested in the lysosome, and the small molecule drug is released.
  • An active molecule composed of amino acid residues of an antibody. The resulting change in the structure of the drug molecule does not reduce its cytotoxicity, but because the active molecule is charged (amino acid residues), it cannot penetrate neighboring cells. Therefore, such active drugs cannot kill adjacent tumor cells that do not express the targeted antigen (antigen-negative cells) (bystander effect) (Bioconjugate Chem. 2010, 21, 5-13).
  • Common non-breakable linkers such as MC linkers and MCC linkers:
  • the cleavable linker can rupture and release the active drug (the small molecule drug itself) in the target cell.
  • Breakable linkers can be divided into two main categories: chemically labile linkers and enzyme labile linkers.
  • Chemically labile linkers can be selectively broken due to differences in the properties of plasma and cytoplasm. Such properties include pH, glutathione concentration, etc.
  • Linkers that are sensitive to pH are often referred to as acid cleavage linkers. Such linkers are relatively stable in the neutral environment of blood (pH 7.3-7.5), but will be hydrolyzed in weakly acidic endosomes (pH 5.0-6.5) and lysosomes (pH 4.5-5.0). Most of the first generation of antibody drug conjugates use such linkers, such as hydrazone, carbonate, acetal, and ketal. Due to the limited plasma stability of acid-cleavable linkers, antibody-drug conjugates based on such linkers usually have a short half-life (2-3 days). This short half-life limits the application of pH-sensitive linkers in the new generation of antibody-drug conjugates to a certain extent.
  • glutathione-sensitive linkers also known as disulfide bond linkers.
  • Drug release is based on the difference between the high concentration of glutathione in the cell (millimolar range) and the relatively low concentration of glutathione in the blood (micromolar range). This is especially true for tumor cells, whose low oxygen content leads to increased reductase activity, which leads to higher glutathione concentrations.
  • Disulfide bonds are thermodynamically stable, so they have better stability in plasma.
  • Enzyme-labile linkers can better control drug release.
  • Peptide linkers can be effectively cut by lysosome proteases, such as cathepsin (Cathepsin B) or plasmin (increased in some tumor tissues).
  • This peptide linkage is considered to be very stable in the plasma circulation. This is because the unsuitable pH value outside the cell and serum protease inhibitors result in the protease usually inactive outside the cell.
  • enzyme labile linkers are widely used as cleavable linkers for antibody-drug conjugates. Typical enzyme-labile linkers such as vc linkers.
  • the suicide linker is generally embedded between the cleavable linker and the active drug, or is part of the cleavable linker itself.
  • the mechanism of action of the suicide linker is: when the rupturable linker is broken under suitable conditions, the suicide linker can spontaneously rearrange the structure and release the active drug connected to it.
  • Common suicide linkers such as p-aminobenzyl alcohol (PAB) and so on.

一种通过一个或多个半胱氨酸残基或半胱氨酸衍生物残基作为药物连接载体,在抗体的有限个连接位点上同时偶联一个或多个药物,从而制备药物载量更高或者可以选择毒性较低的药物制备ADC产品,从而获得治疗窗口更大的ADC产品。此外,由于可在一个连接位点偶联多个药物分子,因此在制备相同DAR值的抗体药物偶联物情况下,所获得的ADC产品均一性也更好。并且在生产中所需要使用的抗体用量也能得以大幅降低,从而有效的降低了生产成本。所制备的抗体药物偶联物,与同一位点仅能连接一个药物分子的抗体药物偶联物相比,在偶联的药物分子总量大幅降低的情况下,对肿瘤细胞仍能起到相同的抑制或杀伤效果。

Description

一种抗体药物偶联物及其应用 技术领域
本发明涉及生物医药领域,具体涉及一种基于一个或多个半胱氨酸残基或半胱氨酸衍生物残基作为药物连接载体形成的抗体药物偶联物及其应用,所述药物连接载体可根据需要在抗体的有限连接位点上同时偶联一个或多个药物。
背景技术
抗体药物偶联物(antibody-drug conjugate,ADC),是指通过化学连接子(Linker)将具有生物活性的药物(Drug)和抗体(Antibody)连接起来的一类生物药。ADC就像是精确制导武器体系,其中具有生物活性的药物作为杀伤性弹药,在抗体的指引下,精准打击病变细胞。因此,ADC结合了细胞毒药物分子的高效能和抗体高靶向性的双重优点。截止到2019年7月,全球仅批准了6种抗体偶联药物(表1)。

由于在抗体上选择的连接位点的非唯一性以及连接反应的复杂性,因此实际最终得到的ADC产品是一个抗体上连接药物数量不一,位点不一的ADC混合物,ADC药物制备的非均一性对药物的生产、质量控制造成很大的挑战。在考虑产品均一性时,有一项重要的指标----DAR值(drug-antibody ratio,药物抗体比),即单位数量的抗体上所能携带的药物分子数量。如果平均DAR值偏小,则抗体上携带药物分子过少,会影响 整体药效。而如果平均DAR值偏大,抗体上负载了过多的药物分子,则会使ADC整体变得不稳定,改变其药代动力学参数,并有可能导致血浆清除率上升、半衰期缩短以及系统性药物毒性的增大。
目前ADC有三种经典的偶联方式,一种是氨基偶联、一种是巯基偶联、第三种是桥接偶联(cross-link)。
氨基偶联是将药物通过连接子偶联在抗体的赖氨酸(Lys)残基上,第一代ADC药物Mylotarg采用的就是氨基偶联的方式,但是IgG上包括了近百个赖氨酸,偶联的位置可能会发生在抗体轻链和重链上近40个外露的赖氨酸残基上,而且通过赖氨酸偶联每个抗体会偶联多个数量不等的小分子药物,因此通过氨基偶联获得的ADC药物高度异质混合,产品均一性极差,这严重影响药物的PK/PD和治疗窗口(参见http://www.sohu.com/a/277791166_464404)。
巯基偶联是先将抗体中的链间二硫键打开形成游离的半胱氨酸(Cys)残基,再和能与半胱氨酸残基配对的连接子-药物复合物进行偶联,由于IgG上只有4对链间二硫键,链间二硫键被全部打开后会形成8个游离的半胱氨酸残基,因此通过单巯基偶联形成的ADC,其平均DAR值为0-8,尽管巯基偶联能够较好地控制每个抗体上连接的数量,但是链间二硫键的断去会极大的降低抗体的稳定性。
桥接偶联是在巯基偶联的基础上演变的一种新的偶联方式,同巯基偶联一样,它是先将抗体中的链间二硫键打开形成两个游离的半胱氨酸残基,之后再同时与这两个游离的半胱氨酸残基配对,由于一个抗体上只有4对链间二硫键,链间二硫键被全部打开后会形成8个游离的半胱氨酸残基,因此通过桥接偶联形成的ADC,其平均DAR值为0-4,与巯基偶联相比,桥接偶联既能更好的控制产品的均一性,又能大大的提供偶联后抗体的稳定性,但是桥接偶联方式的DAR值最大为4,即一个抗体上最多会偶联4个药物,由于肿瘤细胞表面上抗原数量有限,有效的ADC活性所需的抗原表达水平根据不同抗原特性而变化。ADC需要至少10 4个抗原/细胞,以确保能够递送致死数量的细胞毒性药物。理想情况下,ADC的抗体部分所针对的抗原应在肿瘤细胞表面均匀表达且拷贝数较高(>10 5/细胞)。肿瘤细胞表面通常只有有限数量的抗原(大约5000到10 6个抗原/细胞),而ADC的平均DAR为3.5-4(如Brentuximab vedotin的平均DAR值为4、Trastuzumab emtansine的平均DAR值为3.5),输送到肿瘤细胞的药物量很低,因此对于肿瘤细胞的药效较低,这也被认为 是ADC临床失败的主要原因之一。
基于肿瘤细胞表面只有有限数量的抗原,为了保证抗体所携带的有限数量的小分子药物能够有效的杀死肿瘤细胞,临床上往往采用毒性特别强的小分子药物。目前ADC使用的小分子药物主要有auristatin、美登素(maytansine)、卡奇霉素(calicheamicin)、多柔比星(doxorubicin)等几大类,这些小分子药物与传统的化疗药物相比,对癌细胞具备更强的杀伤效力,通常平均四到六个分子的剂量就可实现对靶细胞杀伤,但是,这些毒性特别强的小分子药物在体内一旦出现脱靶,对患者的伤害是致命的,除此之外,由于这些小分子药物的毒性特别强(如DM1对很多细胞的IC 50约为10 -11mol/L、DM4的IC 50约为10 -12mol/L(文献1:Widdison WC,Wilhelm SD,Cavangh EE,et al.Semisynthetic maytansine analogues for the targeted treatment of cancer[J].J Med Chem,2006,49:4392-4408;文献2:Lambert JM.Antibody-maytansinoid conjugates:a new strategy for the treatment of cancer[J].Drugs Future,2010,35:471-480.)、MMAE的IC 50约为10 -11-10 -9mol/L),因此如果出现脱靶及药物提前释放等情况,则对患者存在极大的风险。FDA对收到的20个ADC研究中新药(invesligational new drugs,IND)进行汇总分析,发现ADC药物在动物中表现出来的毒性主要为造血系统毒性、肝毒性和生殖毒性,部分还存在皮肤毒性和肾毒性,其中造血系统、肝和生殖系统的毒性与小分子细胞毒药物直接相关(文献3:Saber H,Leighton JK.An FDA oncology analysis of antibody-drug conjugates[J].Regul Toxicol Pharmacol,2015,71(3):444-452)。而如果选择毒性偏低的小分子药物,则往往因为有效荷载的小分子药物数量过低,产生的药效过低进而导致临床失败。

本发明中的术语“功能性片段”是指抗体片段由其来源抗体的重或轻可变链的部分序列构成或者包含它们,所述部分序列足以保留与其来源抗体相同的结合特异性和充分的亲和力,优选至少等于其来源抗体亲和力的1/100,在更优选方式中至少等于1/10。这种功能片段将包含最少5个氨基酸,优选其来源的抗体序列的10、15、25、50和100个连续氨基酸。

本发明中的术语“连接单元”是指一种具有双官能团或多官能团的分子,可分别与蛋白/抗体分子和药物分子反应,因此做为一种“桥梁”将蛋白/抗体与药物分子连接起来。按照在细胞内药物释放的机制,“连接子”或“抗体药物偶联物的连接子”可被分为两类:不可断裂连接子(non-cleavable linker)和可断裂连接子(cleavable linker)。
不可断裂连接子是一种相对比较稳定的连接子,其结构很难在体内环境下降解断裂。对于含有不可断裂连接子的抗体药物偶联物,其药物释放机制为:偶联物与抗原结合并被细胞内吞后,抗体在溶酶体中被酶解,释放出由小分子药物,连接子,和抗体氨基酸残基共同组成的活性分子。由此带来的药物分子结构改变并不减弱其细胞毒性,但由于活性分子是带电荷的(氨基酸残基),从而导致其不能渗入邻近细胞。因此,此类活性药物不能杀死邻近不表达靶向抗原(抗原阴性细胞)的肿瘤细胞(旁观者效 应,bystander effect)(Bioconjugate Chem.2010,21,5-13)。常见的不可断裂连接子例如MC连接子和MCC连接子等:
Figure PCTCN2019112663-appb-000028
可断裂连接子,顾名思义,可以在目标细胞内断裂并释放出活性药物(小分子药物本身)。可断裂连接子可分为两个主要的类别:化学不稳定连接子和酶不稳定连接子。
化学不稳定连接子可以由于血浆和细胞质性质的不同而选择性的断裂。这样的性质包括pH值,谷胱甘肽浓度等。
对pH值敏感的连接子,通常又称为酸断裂连接子。这样的连接子在血液的中性环境下相对稳定(pH 7.3-7.5),但是在弱酸性的内涵体(pH 5.0-6.5)和溶酶体(pH 4.5-5.0)内将会被水解。第一代的抗体药物偶联物大多应用这类连接子,例如腙,碳酸酯,缩醛,缩酮类。由于酸断裂连接子有限的血浆稳定性,基于此类连接子的抗体药物偶联物通常具有较短的半衰期(2-3天)。这种较短的半衰期在一定程度上限制了pH敏感连接子在新一代抗体药物偶联物中的应用。
对于谷胱甘肽敏感的连接子,又称二硫键连接子。药物释放是基于细胞内谷胱甘肽的高浓度(毫摩尔范围)与血液中相对较低的谷胱甘肽浓度(微摩尔范围)差异引起的。对于肿瘤细胞而言尤其如此,其低含氧量导致还原酶的活性增强,因而导致更高的谷胱甘肽浓度。二硫键具有热力学稳定性,因此在血浆中具有较好的稳定性。
酶不稳定连接子,如肽连接子,能够更好地控制药物释放。肽连接子能够被溶酶体内蛋白酶,如组织蛋白酶(Cathepsin B)或纤溶酶(在一些肿瘤组织中此类酶含量增加)有效地切断。这种肽连接被认为在血浆循环中非常稳定,这是因为细胞外不合宜的pH值及血清蛋白酶抑制剂导致蛋白酶通常在细胞外不具备活性。鉴于较高的血浆稳定性和良好的细胞内断裂选择性和有效性,酶不稳定连接子被广泛用做抗体药物偶联物的可断裂连接子。典型的酶不稳定连接子例如vc连接子等。
Figure PCTCN2019112663-appb-000029
自杀式连接子一般嵌合在可断裂连接子与活性药物之间,或者本身就是可断裂连接子的一部分。自杀式连接子的作用机制是:当可断裂连接子在合宜的条件下断裂后,自杀式连接子能够自发地进行结构重排,进而释放与之连接的活性药物。常见的自杀式连接子如对氨基苄醇类(PAB)等。

在某些特定的实施例中,所述的“活性单元”是美登素(maytansine) 或类美登素(maytansinoids)。美登素化合物通过抑制微管蛋白的微管形成来抑制细胞增殖(Science 1975,189,1002-1005;US 5208020)。类美登素是美登素的衍生物。美登素和类美登素都具有高效的细胞毒性,但是它们在癌症治疗的临床应用上具有很大的局限性,这主要是源于此类分子对肿瘤的低选择性。但是,这种高细胞毒性促使它们成为抗体药物偶联物的首选药物部分。以下列出了美登素,类美登素,以及在抗体药物偶联物应用中经常利用的三个类美登素分子结构。

在某些特定的实施例中,所述的“活性单元”是卡奇霉素类(calichemicins)药物。卡奇霉素类药物是抗肿瘤抗生素,通过结合DNA小沟并促使特定位点双螺旋DNA断裂,而导致细胞凋亡。卡奇霉素类药物具有体外亚皮克摩尔级别的高活性,但是它们的低治疗指数排除了临床应用前景。然而这种高活性却是它们成为抗体药物偶联物的理想候选药物(如吉妥单抗和Inotuzumab Ozogamicin)。

在某些特定的实施例中,所述的“活性单元”是阿霉素类(doxorubicins)。阿霉素能够嵌入DNA双螺旋结构从而阻断DNA复制,因此被用作化疗药物。但是由于阿霉素类较低的细胞毒性(针对人源癌细胞系,半数抑制浓度为0.1-0.2微摩尔,而用于抗体药物偶联物的细胞毒性药物活性通常为亚纳摩尔级),导致其在抗体药物偶联物中的应用并不普遍。

在某些特定的实施例中,所述的“活性单元”是吡咯并苯二氮卓类 (pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodi-azepines,PBDs)或者PBD二聚体类(PBD dimers)。PBD是一类由链霉菌产生的天然产物,其独特特性在于能够在DNA小沟,确切是在嘌呤-鸟嘌呤-嘌呤序列处,形成非扭曲的共价加和物。应用PBD作为部分小分子策略靶向锁定DNA序列以及作为新型的抗癌和抗菌药物引起了越来越多的兴趣(Biochemistry 2008,47,11818-11829)。应用一个柔性碳链连接两个PBD单元的C8/C8’的羟基基团,所得的二聚体具有增强的生物活性(WO 2011/130616)。PBD二聚体被认为是可以产成序列选择性的DNA损伤,例如倒序的5′-Pu-GATC-Py-3′链间交联,从而导致其生物活性。这些化合物已被证明是高效的细胞毒性药物,可作为抗体药物偶联物的备选药物。

本发明的药物组合物、疫苗或者药物制剂可通过任何适宜的途径施 用,例如可口服、鼻、皮内、皮下、肌内或静脉内施用。
本发明中的术语“有效量”包含足以改善或预防医学疾病的症状或病症的量。有效量还意指足以允许或促进诊断的量。用于特定患者或兽医学受试者的有效量可依据以下因素而变化:例如,待治疗的病症、患者的总体健康情况、给药的方法途径和剂量以及副作用严重性。有效量可以是避免显著副作用或毒性作用的最大剂量或给药方案。

实施例9 ADC对SK-BR-3肿瘤细胞株的抑制实验
消化SK-BR-3肿瘤细胞(人乳腺癌细胞),离心收集后,进行计数,并将细胞液稀释至0.5-1.5×10 5个/mL,96孔板中每孔加入100μL该细胞悬液。37℃、5%CO 2培养箱孵育过夜;第二天加入相应9个浓度梯度的ADC药物,外加一组零浓度ADC药物的细胞对照。培养72h后采用Cell Counting Kit-8(简称CCK-8试剂盒)进行活性显色,显色后的96孔板通过酶标仪检测450nm处OD值。Prism软件通过OD值计算得出IC50值。当拟合的曲线呈“S型曲线”且R 2≥0.95时,IC50值有效可报告。
我们选取了平均DAR值为3.87的ADC-0(比较例1)、平均DAR值为7.18的ADC-0(比较例2)、平均DAR值为4.3的ADC-10(比较例3)、平均DAR值为4.29的ADC-34(比较例4)进行SK-BR-3肿瘤细胞株的抑制实验,其IC50值如表2所示:

*以比较例1为基数,MMAF用量变化=(比较例X-比较例1)/比较例1;X代表相应比较例;
比较例2通过提高抗体中连接的MMAF数量位点,将DAR值提高到7.18。与比较例1相比,在达到相同的效果的情况下,比较例2可以有效降低抗体使用量(即ADC中的抗体量,在不考虑合成过程抗体用量损耗的情况下,抗体的使用量等于ADC的浓度),但MMAF使用量增加了19.3%。
比较例3在一个连接子上连接有两个MMAF,DAR值(4.3)与比较例1(3.87)相当,与比较例1相比,在达到相同的效果的情况下,比较例3有效降低抗体使用量65.9%,MMAF使用量降低24.3%。
比较例4在一个连接子上连接有三个MMAF,DAR值与比较例1相 当,与比较例1相比,在达到相同的效果的情况下,比较例4有效降低抗体使用量85.5%,MMAF使用量降低51.8%。
从以上比较数据来看,ADC-10和ADC-34表现出更高效的细胞活性,其所带来的效果并不仅仅是单纯的通过提高抗体中MMAF的数量来提升ADC的效果,还进一步反映了在携带相同MMAF数量的情况下,通过单点多弹头(细胞毒药物)的连接方式,起到了有效降低抗体使用量以及毒素使用量的效果,起到了意料不到的技术效果。并且通过单连接点多弹头的方式,还能极为有效的提高ADC产品的均一性,可以有效的促进药品药物生产、质量控制过程。
