Definitions
- the invention belongs to the technical field of biomedicine, and relates to an anti-CTLA-4 monoclonal antibody and a preparation method and application thereof.
- the immune system is an important defense against cancer development and progression.
- Immunotherapy such as the adoptive transfer of IL-2 and autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, can induce sustained tumor responses in a subgroup of patients, thereby enabling patients with poor prognosis to achieve long-term survival (Atkins MB, et al. (1999), J Clin Oncol) .17(7):2105–2116).
- treatment methods based on checkpoint blockade have recently begun to provide patients with long-lasting benefits and seem to be applicable to a wide range of malignancies.
- T cells are one of the key mediators of the immune response, which require costimulation to activate, and can be inactivated by inhibiting signals (Sharpe AH, Abbas AK. (2006), N Engl J Med.355(10):973-975 ).
- Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte Antigen-4 (CTLA-4) is such a key inhibitory receptor that affects T cell function, and plays a key role in the initiation of the immune response (Scalapino KJ1, Daikh DI. (2008), Immunol Rev. .223:143-155).
- TCR T cell receptor
- B7-1 CD80
- B7-2 CD86
- CTLA-4 When CD28 binds and causes T cell proliferation, CTLA-4 is transported and expressed on the surface of T cells (Linsley PS, et al. (1996), Immunity. 4(6): 535-543). The stronger the activation signal through TCR, the more CTLA-4 is transported and expressed. When on the cell surface, the inhibitory signal of CTLA-4 is transmitted (Egen JG, Allison JP. (2002), Immunity. 16(1): 23-25). Compared with CD28, CTLA-4 has a higher affinity with B7 and can prevent further co-activation (Krummel MF, Allison JP. (1995), J Exp Med. 182(2): 458-465). In addition, cells expressing CTLA-4 can capture and degrade B7-1 and B7-2 through endocytosis (Qureshi OS, et al. (2011), Science. 332(6029): 600-603).
- Stimulatory receptors include inducible T cell costimulator (ICOS) (Tremble LF, et al. (2016), Cancer Lett. 420: 109-115), glucocorticoid-induced TNF receptor (GITR) (Schaer DA ,et al. (2013), Cancer Immunol Res. 1(5): 320-331), CD27(Buchan SL, et al. (2016), Blood.131(1): 39-48), 4-1BB( Eun SY, et al. (2015), J Immunol.
- IGITR glucocorticoid-induced TNF receptor
- inhibitory receptors include programmed cell death receptor-1 (PD-1) (Dong H, et al. (1999), Nat Med. 5(12): 1365-1369), lymphocyte activation gene-3 (LAG-3) (Di CE, et al. (2005), J Pathol. 205:82 -91), T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 3 (TIM3) (Sánchez-Fueyo A, et al.
- PD-1 programmed cell death receptor-1
- LAG-3 lymphocyte activation gene-3
- TIM3 T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 3
- T cell immunoglobulin Protein and ITIM domain (TIGIT) (Johnston RJ, et al. (2014), Cancer Cell. 26:923-937).
- TAGIT T cell immunoglobulin Protein and ITIM domain
- over-activation In cancer, the use of agonists to target stimulatory receptors or inhibitors to block inhibitory receptors can regulate the immune response, allowing the immune system to recognize and attack tumor cells to achieve therapeutic effects.
- some therapeutic drugs have been developed in clinical or on the market (Elad S, et al. (2014), Chin J Cancer. 33(9): 434-444), of which CTLA-4 blocks The drug is the first monoclonal antibody drug used in clinical cancer treatment.
- the more well-known anti-CTLA-4 monoclonal antibody is Ipilimumab from Bristol-Myers Squibb And AstraZeneca's Tremelimumab (Tremelimumab), which is still in the clinical stage.
- Their mechanism is to block the binding of CTLA-4 and B7, liberate the B7 protein to bind to CD28, thereby enhancing the proliferation response of T cells.
- Blocking the CTLA-4/B7 interaction in several established preclinical mouse models has shown rejection of transplantable tumors, including colon cancer, prostate cancer, lymphoma and kidney cancer (Korman AJ, et al . (2006), Adv Immunol. 90:297-339).
- the present invention provides an anti-CTLA-4 antibody with low content of high mannose glycoforms and/or low content of sialylated glycoforms, which helps to extend the half-life of the antibody and/or reduce the immunogenicity.
- the antibody is an ADCC-enhanced anti-CTLA-4 antibody, which is used to target patient cells or tissues to increase the anti-tumor effect of the drug.

- Antibody should include but is not limited to immunoglobulin, which is a large "Y"-shaped protein produced mainly by plasma cells, which is used by the immune system to neutralize pathogens such as pathogenic bacteria and viruses.
- the antibody recognizes a unique molecule called an "antigen" on the pathogen through the variable region of the Fab.
- Each tip of the "Y” structure of an antibody contains a paratope to a specific epitope on the antigen, allowing the two structures to be accurately joined together.
- antibodies can mark microorganisms or infected cells so that the immune system can attack them, or they can directly neutralize the target.
- the ability of an antibody to communicate with other components of the immune system is mediated through its Fc region, which contains conserved glycosylation sites that participate in these interactions.
- the production of antibodies is the main function of the humoral immune system.
- Antibody fragment includes (comprises) a portion of a full-length antibody, usually including its antigen binding region.
- antibody fragments include Fab, Fab', F(ab')2 and Fv fragments; diabodies; linear antibodies; single-chain antibody molecules; and multispecific antibodies formed from antibody fragments.
- Identity and “homology” refer to the sequence similarity between two peptides or between two nucleic acid molecules.
- the homology can be determined by comparing the positions that can be aligned in each sequence. When a position in the sequence being compared is occupied by the same base or amino acid, then the molecules are homologous at that position.
- the degree of homology between sequences is a function of the number of matches or homologous positions shared by the sequences.

- amino acid refers to an organic compound containing both amino and carboxyl groups, such as ⁇ -amino acids, which can be encoded by nucleic acids directly or in the form of precursors.
- a single amino acid is encoded by a nucleic acid composed of three nucleotides (so-called codons or base triplets). Each amino acid is encoded by at least one codon. The same amino acid encoded by different codons is called “the degeneracy of the genetic code”.
- Amino acids include natural amino acids and unnatural amino acids.
- Natural amino acids include alanine (three-letter code: ala, one-letter code: A), arginine (arg, R), asparagine (asn, N), aspartic acid (asp, D), cysteine Acid (cys, C), glutamine (gln, Q), glutamic acid (glu, E), glycine (gly, G), histidine (his, H), isoleucine (ile, I ), leucine (leu, L), lysine (lys, K), methionine (met, M), phenylalanine (phe, F), proline (pro, P), serine (ser, S), threonine (thr, T), tryptophan (trp, W), tyrosine (tyr, Y) and valine (val, V).
- Constant amino acid substitution refers to the substitution of an amino acid residue by another amino acid residue containing a side chain (R group) that is chemically similar (eg, charge or hydrophobicity). Generally speaking, conservative amino acid substitutions are unlikely to substantially change the functional properties of the protein.
- amino acid classes containing chemically similar side chains include: 1) aliphatic side chains: glycine, alanine, valine, leucine and isoleucine; 2) aliphatic hydroxyl side chains: serine and threon Acid; 3) amide-containing side chains: asparagine and glutamine; 4) aromatic side chains: phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan; 5) basic side chains: lysine, Arginine and histidine; 6) Acidic side chains: aspartic acid and glutamic acid.
- the number of "conservative amino acid substitutions of VL and VH” can be about 1, about 2, about 3, about 4, about 5, about 6, about 8, about 9, about 10, About 11, about 13, about 14, about 15 conservative amino acid substitutions, or the range (including endpoints) between any two of these values, or any value therein.

- Antibodies can be of different types, called isotypes or classes. In placental mammals, there are five antibody isotypes, called IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM. They are each named with the "Ig” prefix, representing immunoglobulins (sometimes used interchangeably with “antibodies"), and their biological properties, functional positions, and ability to handle different antigens are different. The different suffixes of the antibody isotype indicate the different types of heavy chains contained in the antibody. Each heavy chain category is named in alphabetical order: ⁇ , ⁇ , ⁇ , ⁇ , and ⁇ , corresponding to the production of IgA, IgG, IgD, IgE and IgM. . There are two types of immunoglobulin light chains in mammals, called ⁇ ( ⁇ ) and ⁇ ( ⁇ ). Generally, each antibody contains two identical light chains; in mammals, only one type of light chain ⁇ or ⁇ exists for each antibody.
- Immunoglobulin G is a type of antibody. IgG is about 75% of the serum antibodies in the human body and is the most common type of antibody in the blood circulation. There are four IgG subclasses in the human body (IgG1, 2, 3, and 4), named in order of their abundance in the serum (IgG1 is the most abundant).
- the arms of "Y" contain sites that can bind to antigens to recognize specific foreign objects.
- This antibody region is called the Fab region. It consists of a constant region and a variable region of each heavy and light chain of an antibody.
- the variable domain is also called the FV region, and is the most important region for antigen binding.
- each of the three regions on the light chain variable region (VL) and the heavy chain variable region (VH) is responsible for binding to the antigen, and these regions are called complementarity determining regions (CDR).
- CDR complementarity determining regions
- the base of "Y” plays a role in regulating the activity of immune cells.
- This region is called the Fc region and consists of two heavy chains, which contribute two or three constant regions according to the class of the antibody.
- the Fc region ensures that each antibody produces an appropriate immune response to a given antigen by binding to a specific class of Fc receptors and other immune molecules (such as complement proteins). In this way, it mediates different physiological effects, including recognition of opsonized particles (binding to Fc ⁇ R), cell lysis (binding to complement), and degranulation of mast cells, basophils and eosinophils (binding to Fc ⁇ R) .
- the CDRs defined by Kabat and Chothia include overlaps or subsets of amino acid residues when compared with each other. Nevertheless, it is within the scope of the present invention to apply any definition to refer to the CDRs of antibodies or variants thereof.
- the exact residue number that contains a particular CDR will vary depending on the sequence and size of the CDR. Those skilled in the art can usually determine which specific residues the CDR contains based on the amino acid sequence of the variable region of the antibody.
- Kabat et al. also defined a numbering system applicable to the variable region sequence of any antibody. Those of ordinary skill in the art can apply the "Kabat numbering" system to any variable region sequence without relying on other experimental data other than the sequence itself. "Kabat number” refers to the numbering system proposed by Kabat et al., U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services in "Sequence of Proteins of Immunological Interest” (1983). Antibodies can also use the EU or Chothia numbering system.
- antigen refers to a substance that specifically binds to antibodies or T lymphocyte antigen receptors. They are substances that stimulate the production of antibodies or are recognized by antibodies. Sometimes the antigen is part of the host itself in autoimmune diseases.
- antigen originally described a structural molecule that specifically binds to an antibody. It was later expanded to refer to any molecule or linear molecular fragment that can be recognized by the highly variable antigen receptors (B cell receptors or T cell receptors) of the adaptive immune system.
- a “monoclonal antibody” is an antibody made from the same immune cell, which is all clones of a single parent cell.
- Monoclonal antibodies can have monovalent affinity because they bind to the same epitope (the part of the antigen recognized by the antibody).
- polyclonal antibodies bind to multiple epitopes and are usually secreted by several different plasma cells. It can also be engineered into a bispecific monoclonal antibody by increasing the therapeutic target of a single monoclonal antibody to two epitopes.
- Monoclonal antibodies can be produced by hybridomas, recombination, transgenics, or other techniques known to those skilled in the art.
- Humanized antibodies refer to antibodies from non-human species whose protein sequences have been modified to increase their similarity to naturally-occurring human antibody variants.
- the "humanization” process is generally applied to monoclonal antibodies developed for human administration (for example, antibodies developed as anti-cancer drugs).
- humanization is also required.
- Humanized mice are mice that carry functional human genes, cells, tissues and/or organs. Humanized mice are commonly used as small animal models in biological and medical research for human therapy. Immunodeficient mice are often used as recipients of human cells or tissues because they can accept heterologous cells relatively easily due to lack of host immunity. This humanized mouse model can be used to simulate the human immune system under healthy and pathological conditions, and can evaluate therapeutic candidates in an in vivo environment related to human physiology.
- ADCC antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity
- ADCC is independent of the immune complement system, which also dissolves the target but does not require any other cells.
- ADCC requires an effector cell, which is known to be a natural killer (NK) cell that normally interacts with IgG antibodies.
- NK natural killer
- macrophages, neutrophils, and eosinophils can also mediate ADCC.
- eosinophils use IgE antibodies to kill certain parasites called worms.
- ADCC is part of the adaptive immune response because it relies on previous antibody responses.
- Fc region is the tail region of an antibody, which interacts with cell surface receptors called Fc receptors and some proteins of the complement system. This property allows antibodies to activate the immune system.
- Fc region is composed of two identical protein fragments, derived from the second and third constant regions of the two heavy chains of the antibody; IgM and IgE Fc regions are in each polypeptide chain It contains three heavy chain constant domains (CH domains 2-4).
- the Fc region of IgG has a highly conserved N-glycosylation site. Glycosylation of Fc fragments is necessary for Fc receptor-mediated activity, and different glycotypes have different effects on the pharmaceutical properties of therapeutic antibodies.
- Fc receptor or “FcR” is a protein found on the surface of certain cells, including B lymphocytes, follicular dendritic cells, natural killer cells, macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils, Basophils, human platelets and mast cells, etc., all help protect the function of the immune system.
- the name of the Fc receptor is derived from its binding specificity to the Fc region of an antibody.
- Fc receptors bind to antibodies attached to infected cells or invading pathogens. Their activity works through phagocytes and cytotoxic cells destroying microorganisms, or through antibody-mediated phagocytosis to infect cells, or through antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity.
- Some viruses, such as flavivirus use Fc receptors to help them infect cells through a mechanism called antibody-dependent infection enhancement.
- Fc receptors There are several different types of Fc receptors, which are classified based on the type of antibody they recognize.
- the Latin alphabet used to identify the antibody type is converted to the corresponding Greek alphabet, which is located after the "Fc" part of the name.
- Fc ⁇ R Fc- ⁇ receptors
- Fc ⁇ R Fc- ⁇ receptors
- Fc ⁇ R Fc- ⁇ receptors
- Fc ⁇ R Fc- ⁇ receptors
- Fc ⁇ R Fc- ⁇ receptors
- Fc ⁇ R Fc- ⁇ receptors
- Fc ⁇ R Fc- ⁇ receptors
- Fc ⁇ R Fc- ⁇ receptors
- Fc ⁇ R Fc- ⁇ receptors
- the types of FcR are also distinguished by the cells that express them (macrophages, granulocytes, natural killer cells, T cells, and B cells) and the signaling properties of each receptor.
- Fc ⁇ R All Fc ⁇ receptors (Fc ⁇ R) belong to the immunoglobulin superfamily and are the most important Fc receptors that induce microbial phagocytosis. This family includes several members, FcyRI (CD64), FcyRIIA (CD32), FcyRIIB (CD32), FcyRIIIA (CD16a), and FcyRIIIB (CD16b). Because of their different molecular structures, their antibody affinities are different. For example, FcyRI binds IgG more strongly than FcyRII or FcyRIII. FcyRI also has an extracellular part composed of three immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains, and has more domains than FcyRII or FcyRIII.
- Ig immunoglobulin
- Fc ⁇ RI Fc ⁇ RI to bind to a single IgG molecule (or monomer), but all Fc ⁇ receptors must bind to multiple IgG molecules in the immune complex to be activated.
- Fc- ⁇ receptors have different affinities for IgG, and different IgG subclasses have unique affinities for each Fc ⁇ receptor.
- These interactions are further regulated by the glycans (oligosaccharides) at positions CH2-84.4 of IgG. For example, by creating steric hindrance, fucose containing CH2-84.4 glycans reduces the IgG affinity for Fc ⁇ RIIIA.
- Cancer refers to a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth, which may invade or spread to other parts of the body. Cancer is in contrast to benign tumors, which do not spread to other parts of the body. Possible signs and symptoms include lumps, abnormal bleeding, long-term coughing, unexplained weight loss, and changes in bowel movements.
- Tumor-bearing mice are divided into primary models and transplanted tumor models.
- the most commonly used in research is the xenograft model, which mainly includes orthotopic xenografts and subcutaneous xenografts. In short, it is to inject relevant tumor cells into mice by in situ injection or subcutaneous injection to make them tumorigenic.

- glycotype is an isotype of a protein, which differs only in the number or type of attached glycans.
- Glycoproteins are usually composed of many different sugar forms, in which the attached sugars or oligosaccharides are changed. These modifications may be due to differences in biosynthesis in the glycosylation process, or due to the action of glycosidases or glycosyltransferases.
- the glycoform can be detected by detailed chemical analysis of the separated glycoform or by lectin affinity chromatography and lectin affinity electrophoresis.
- glycosylation is a reaction in which a carbohydrate (ie, a glycosyl donor) is attached to a hydroxyl group or other functional group of another molecule (the glycosyl acceptor).
- glycosylation mainly refers specifically to the enzymatic process of attaching glycans to proteins or other organic molecules. This enzymatic process produces a basic biopolymer (as well as DNA, RNA and protein) found in cells.
- Glycosylation is a form of co-translation and post-translational modification. Glycans play a variety of structural and functional roles in membranes and secreted proteins. Most proteins synthesized in the rough endoplasmic reticulum undergo glycosylation.

Description
本发明属于生物医药技术领域,涉及一种抗CTLA-4单克隆抗体及其制备方法与应用。
免疫系统是防止癌症发展和进展(progression)的重要防御手段。免疫疗法,如IL-2和自体肿瘤浸润淋巴细胞的过继转移,可以诱导患者亚组持续的肿瘤反应,从而使得预后不良的患者获得长期存活(Atkins MB,et al.(1999),J Clin Oncol.17(7):2105–2116)。随着对于抗肿瘤免疫的启动和效应阶段的重要性的进一步理解,基于检查点阻断的治疗方法最近开始为患者提供持久的益处,并似乎适用于广泛的恶性肿瘤。
免疫系统受到严格的调节,以响应适当的抗原,而不会对自身产生反应(Bretscher P,Cohn M.(1970),Science.169(3950):1042-1049)。T细胞是免疫反应的关键介质之一,需要共刺激才能激活,并且可以通过抑制信号使其失活(Sharpe AH,Abbas AK.(2006),N Engl J Med.355(10):973-975)。细胞毒性T淋巴细胞抗原-4(CTLA-4)就是这样一种影响T细胞功能的关键抑制性受体,在免疫应答的启动阶段发挥关键作用(Scalapino KJ1,Daikh DI.(2008),Immunol Rev.223:143-155)。当抗原被MHC-I类或II类抗原提呈细胞运输到T细胞受体(TCR)时,TCR上的信号就会放大,并被共刺激分子抵消。T细胞上的CD28与抗原提呈细胞上的B7-1(CD80)和B7-2(CD86)结合后,会发出一种需要T细胞全激活的信号。这种CD28/B7的结合导致白介素2及其他刺激性的细胞因子产生的增加,提高代谢,促进细胞周期进程,上调细胞存活基因,最终使T细胞得到增殖和分化。当CD28结合并引起T细胞增殖后,CTLA-4被运送并表达在T细胞表面(Linsley PS,et al.(1996),Immunity.4(6):535-543)。通过TCR的激活信号越强烈,就越多CTLA-4运送并表达。当在细胞表面上时,CTLA-4的抑制信号就被传播(Egen JG,Allison JP.(2002),Immunity.16(1):23-25)。与CD28相比,CTLA-4与B7有更高的亲和力,并能阻碍更进一步的共激活(Krummel MF,Allison JP.(1995),J Exp Med.182(2):458-465)。并且,CTLA-4表达的细胞能通过内吞作用捕获和降解B7-1和B7-2(Qureshi OS,et al.(2011),Science.332(6029):600-603)。
除了CTLA-4,目前已经报道了其他一些可以调节T细胞应答的刺激性或抑制性的受体和配体。刺激性受体包括诱导性T细胞共刺激子(ICOS)(Tremble LF,et al.(2018),Cancer Lett.420:109-115)、糖皮质激素诱导的TNF受体(GITR)(Schaer DA,et al.(2013),Cancer Immunol Res.1(5):320-331)、CD27(Buchan SL,et al.(2018),Blood.131(1):39-48)、4-1BB(Eun SY,et al.(2015),J Immunol.194(1):134-141)、CD40(Richman LP,Vonderheide RH.(2014),Cancer Immunol Res.2(1):19-26)、DNAX配件分子-1(DNAM-1)(Kearney CJ,et al.(2016),Oncoimmunology.5(8):e1196308),抑制性受体包括细胞程序性死亡受体-1(PD-1)(Dong H,et al.(1999),Nat Med.5(12):1365-1369)、淋巴细胞激活基因-3(LAG-3)(Di CE,et al.(2005),J Pathol.205:82–91)、T细胞免疫球蛋白和粘蛋白结构域3(TIM3)(Sánchez-Fueyo A,et al.(2003),Nat Immunol.4(11):1093-1101)、T细胞活化的V结构域Ig抑制剂(VISTA)(Lines JL,et al.(2014),Cancer Res.74(7):1924-1932)、CD47(Liu X,et al.(2015),Nat Med.21(10):1209-1215)、吲哚胺-2,3-双加氧酶(IDO)(Friberg M,et al.(2002),Cancer.101:151–155)、CD94/NKG2A (Muntasell A,et al.(2017),Curr Opin Immunol.45:73-81)、杀伤性免疫球蛋白样受体(KIR)(Tu MM,et al.(2016),Front Immunol.7:116)、T细胞免疫球蛋白和ITIM结构域(TIGIT)(Johnston RJ,et al.(2014),Cancer Cell.26:923-937)。这些刺激性的受体和配体,即目前研究领域热论的“免疫检查点”,在免疫系统的自我调节中起到至关重要的作用,使免疫系统的功能保持在正常范围内而不至于过度活化。在癌症机体中,利用激动剂靶向刺激性受体或利用抑制剂阻断抑制性受体,就能调节免疫应答,使免疫系统识别和攻击肿瘤细胞,达到治疗的效果。对于上述免疫检查点,目前有一部分已开发出临床中或上市的治疗性药物(Elad S,et al.(2014),Chin J Cancer.33(9):434–444),其中CTLA-4阻断剂就是第一个应用于临床癌症治疗的单克隆抗体药物。
目前较为人所知的抗CTLA-4单克隆抗体是百时美施贵宝公司的伊匹单抗
以及阿斯利康公司尚处于临床阶段的曲美母单抗(Tremelimumab)。它们的机理都是通过阻断CTLA-4与B7的结合,解放B7蛋白使其能跟CD28结合,从而增强T细胞的增殖反应。在临床前几种已建立的小鼠模型中阻断CTLA-4/B7相互作用,已经显示出对可移植肿瘤的排斥,包括结肠癌,前列腺癌,淋巴瘤和肾癌(Korman AJ,et al.(2006),Adv Immunol.90:297-339)。然而,这种作用机制推广到人体上,仅对一小部分治疗患者提供了有限的临床益处。因此,人们认为应该存在与宿主依赖因子相关的未知机制(Romano E,et al.(2015),Proc Natl Acad Sci USA.112(19):6140-6145)。

术语
除非另作说明,否则下列的每一个术语应当具有下文所述的含义。
“抗体”(Ab),应包括但不限于免疫球蛋白,是主要由浆细胞产生的大的“Y”形蛋白,其被免疫系统用于中和病原体如病原细菌和病毒。抗体通过Fab的可变区识别病原体上的一种称为“抗原”的独特分子。抗体的“Y”结构的每个尖端含有对抗原上一个特定表位的互补位,允许这两个结构精确地结合在一起。使用这种结合机制,抗体可以标记微生物或受感染的细胞,使免疫系统对其进行攻击,或者可以直接中和目标。抗体与免疫系统的其他组分通信的能力是通过其Fc区介导的,Fc区包含参与这些相互作用的保守糖基化位点。抗体的产生是体液免疫系统的主要功能。
“抗体片段”包括(comprise)全长抗体的一部分,通常包括其抗原结合区。抗体片段的实例包括Fab,Fab’,F(ab’)2和Fv片段;双抗体(diabodies);线性抗体(linear antibody);单链抗体分子;和由抗体片段形成的多特异性抗体。
“同一性”和“同源性”是指两个肽之间或两个核酸分子之间的序列相似性。可以通过比较每个序列中可以比对的位置来确定同源性。当被比较的序列中的位置被相同的碱基或氨基酸占据时,则分子在该位置是同源的。序列之间的同源程度是由序列共有的匹配或同源位置的数目组成的一个函数。
“至少80%同一性”为约80%同一性、约81%同一性、约82%同一性、约83%同一性、约85%同一性、约86%同一性、约87%同一性、约88%同一性、约90%同一性、约91%同一性、约92%同一性、约94%同一性、约95%同一性、约98%同一性、约99%同一性,或这些数值中的任何两个值之间的范围(包括端点)或其中任何值。
“氨基酸”是指既含氨基又含羧基的有机化合物,比如α-氨基酸,其可直接或以前体的形式由核酸编码。单个氨基酸由三个核苷酸(所谓的密码子或碱基三联体)组成的核酸编码。每一个氨基酸由至少一个密码子编码。相同氨基酸由不同密码子编码称为“遗传密码的简并性”。氨基酸包括天然氨基酸和非天然氨基酸。天然氨基酸包括丙氨酸(三字母代码:ala,一字母代码:A)、精氨酸(arg,R)、天冬酰胺(asn,N)、天冬氨酸(asp,D)、半胱氨酸(cys,C)、谷氨酰胺(gln,Q)、谷氨酸(glu,E)、甘氨酸(gly,G)、组氨酸(his,H)、异亮氨酸(ile,I)、亮氨酸(leu,L)、赖氨酸(lys,K)、甲硫氨酸(met,M)、苯丙氨酸(phe,F)、脯氨酸(pro,P)、丝氨酸(ser,S)、苏氨酸(thr,T)、色氨酸(trp,W)、酪氨酸(tyr,Y)和缬氨酸(val,V)。
“保守氨基酸取代”是指一个氨基酸残基被另一个含有化学性质(例如电荷或疏水性)相似的侧链(R基团)的氨基酸残基所取代。一般而言,保守氨基酸取代不大会在实质上改变蛋白质的功能性质。含有化学性质相似侧链的氨基酸类别的实例包括:1)脂族侧链:甘氨酸、 丙氨酸、缬氨酸、亮氨酸和异亮氨酸;2)脂族羟基侧链:丝氨酸和苏氨酸;3)含酰胺的侧链:天冬酰胺和谷氨酰胺;4)芳族侧链:苯丙氨酸、酪氨酸和色氨酸;5)碱性侧链:赖氨酸、精氨酸和组氨酸;6)酸性侧链:天冬氨酸和谷氨酸。
“VL、VH的保守氨基酸取代”的氨基酸数目可为约1个、约2个、约3个、约4个、约5个、约6个、约8个、约9个、约10个、约11个、约13个、约14个、约15个保守氨基酸取代,或这些数值中的任何两个值之间的范围(包括端点)或其中任何值。“重链或轻链的保守氨基酸取代”的氨基酸数目可为约1个、约2个、约3个、约4个、约5个、约6个、约8个、约9个、约10个、约11个、约13个、约14个、约15个、约18个、约19个、约22个、约24个、约25个、约29个、约31个、约35个、约38个、约41个、约45个保守氨基酸取代,或这些数值中的任何两个值之间的范围(包括端点)或其中任何值。
抗体可以有不同的种类,称为同种型或类别。在胎盘哺乳动物中,有五种抗体同种型,称为IgA,IgD,IgE,IgG和IgM。它们各自以“Ig”前缀命名,代表免疫球蛋白(有时可与“抗体”互换使用),其生物学特性、功能位置和处理不同抗原的能力不同。抗体同种型的不同后缀表示抗体含有的不同类型的重链,每个重链类别按字母顺序命名:α、γ、δ、ε、和μ,分别对应产生IgA,IgG,IgD,IgE和IgM。而在哺乳动物中有两种类型的免疫球蛋白轻链,称为λ(λ)和κ(κ)。一般来说,每种抗体含有两条相同的轻链;在哺乳动物中每种抗体仅存在一种类型的轻链κ或λ。
免疫球蛋白G(IgG)是抗体的一种。IgG是人体中大约75%的血清抗体,是血液循环中最常见的抗体类型。人体中有四种IgG亚类(IgG1、2、3和4),按其在血清中的丰度顺序命名(IgG1是最丰富的)。
抗体的某些部分具有相同的功能。例如,“Y”的臂包含可以与抗原结合的位点以识别特定的外来物体。该抗体区域称为Fab区域。它由抗体的每条重链和轻链的一个恒定区和一个可变区组成。可变结构域也称为FV区,并且是结合抗原的最重要区域。具体而言,轻链可变区(VL)和重链可变区(VH)上的各三个区域负责与抗原结合,这些区域称为互补决定区(CDR)。“Y”的基部在调节免疫细胞活性中起作用。该区域称为Fc区,由两条重链组成,根据抗体的类别,它们贡献两个或三个恒定区域。因此,Fc区通过结合特定类别的Fc受体和其他免疫分子(例如补体蛋白)确保每种抗体对给定抗原产生适当的免疫应答。通过这样,它介导不同的生理效应,包括识别调理颗粒(与FcγR结合),细胞裂解(与补体结合),以及肥大细胞,嗜碱性粒细胞和嗜酸性粒细胞(与FcεR结合)的脱粒。
根据Kabat和Chothia定义的CDR包括相互比较时的氨基酸残基的重叠或子集。尽管如此,应用任一定义来指代抗体或其变体的CDR都在本发明范围内。包含特定CDR的确切残基编号将根据CDR的序列和大小而变化。本领域技术人员通常可以根据抗体的可变区氨基酸序列确定出CDR包含哪些特定的残基。
Kabat等人还定义了适用于任何抗体的可变区序列的编号系统。本领域普通技术人员可以不依赖于序列本身以外的其他实验数据将该“Kabat编号”系统应用到任何可变区序列。“Kabat编号”是指由Kabat et al.,U.S.Dept.of Health and Human Services在“Sequence of Proteinsof Immunological Interest”(1983)提出的编号系统。抗体还可以用EU或Chothia编号系统。
“抗原”在免疫学中,是指与抗体或T淋巴细胞抗原受体特异性结合的物质。它们是刺激抗体产生或被抗体识别的物质。有时抗原是自身免疫性疾病中宿主自身的一部分。术语抗原最初描述的是与抗体特异性结合的结构分子。后它被扩展为指可被适应性免疫系统的高度可 变抗原受体(B细胞受体或T细胞受体)识别的任何分子或线性分子片段。
“单克隆抗体”(mAb)是由相同的免疫细胞制备的抗体,所述免疫细胞是单一亲本细胞的所有克隆。单克隆抗体可以具有单价亲和力,因为它们结合相同的表位(抗体识别的抗原部分)。相反,多克隆抗体与多个表位结合,并且通常由几种不同的浆细胞分泌。还可以通过将一种单一单克隆抗体的治疗靶标增加至两个表位来改造成双特异性单克隆抗体。单克隆抗体可以通过杂交瘤、重组、转基因或本领域技术人员已知的其他技术制造。
“人源化”抗体是指来自非人类物种的抗体,其蛋白质序列已被修饰以增加它们与人类天然产生的抗体变体的相似性。“人源化”过程通常应用于为人类施用而开发的单克隆抗体(例如,作为抗癌药物开发的抗体)。当开发特异性抗体的过程涉及在非人免疫系统(例如小鼠中)中产生时,也需要进行人源化。人源化小鼠是携带功能性人类基因、细胞、组织和/或器官的小鼠。人源化小鼠通常用作人类治疗的生物学和医学研究中的小动物模型。免疫缺陷小鼠通常用作人细胞或组织的接受者,因为它们由于缺乏宿主免疫力而可以相对容易地接受异源细胞。这种人源化小鼠模型可用于在健康和病理情况下模拟人体免疫系统,并且可以在与人体生理学相关的体内环境中评估治疗候选物。
“抗体依赖性细胞介导的细胞毒性”(ADCC)是细胞介导的免疫防御机制,其中免疫系统的效应细胞主动裂解靶细胞,其膜表面抗原被特异性抗体结合。它是抗体作为体液免疫反应的一部分,可以通过其作用来限制和控制感染。
ADCC独立于免疫补体系统,该系统也溶解靶标但不需要任何其他细胞。ADCC需要一种效应细胞,其已知是通常与IgG抗体相互作用的天然杀伤(NK)细胞。然而,巨噬细胞、中性粒细胞和嗜酸性粒细胞也可以介导ADCC,例如嗜酸性粒细胞通过IgE抗体杀死某些被称为蠕虫的寄生虫。另外,ADCC是适应性免疫应答的一部分,因为它依赖于先前的抗体应答。
“Fc区”,是抗体的尾区,其与称为Fc受体的细胞表面受体和补体系统的一些蛋白质相互作用。该特性允许抗体激活免疫系统。在IgG,IgA和IgD抗体同种型中,Fc区由两个相同的蛋白质片段组成,衍生自抗体的两条重链的第二和第三恒定区;IgM和IgE Fc区在每条多肽链中含有三个重链恒定结构域(CH结构域2-4)。IgG的Fc区具有高度保守的N-糖基化位点。Fc片段的糖基化对于Fc受体介导的活性是必需的,且不同的糖型对治疗性抗体的药学性质有不同的影响。高甘露糖糖型会导致抗体在血液中快速清除,半衰期缩短;G0F促进补体通路作用,加快清除速率;唾液酸修饰对静脉注射免疫球蛋白的炎症作用影响明显;岩藻糖基化的降低导致ADCC活性明显增强。因此,根据治疗性抗体的主要作用机制和药物用途,设计和优化抗体的糖链是有必要的。本专利中,“Fc”或“Fc段”或“Fc结构域”的含义等同于“Fc区”。
“Fc受体”或“FcR”是在某些细胞表面发现的蛋白质,这些细胞包括B淋巴细胞、滤泡树突细胞、自然杀伤细胞、巨噬细胞、中性粒细胞、嗜酸性粒细胞、嗜碱性粒细胞、人血小板和肥大细胞等,它们都有助于保护免疫系统的功能。Fc受体的名称来源于其对抗体的Fc区域的结合特异性。Fc受体与附着于受感染细胞或入侵病原体的抗体结合。它们的活性通过吞噬细胞和细胞毒性细胞破坏微生物、或通过抗体介导的吞噬作用去感染细胞、或通过抗体依赖性细胞介导的细胞毒性去发挥作用。一些病毒如黄病毒通过称为抗体依赖性感染增强的机制使用Fc受体来帮助它们感染细胞。
有几种不同类型的Fc受体,其基于它们识别的抗体类型进行分类。用于识别抗体类型的 拉丁字母被转换为相应的希腊字母,该字母位于名称的“Fc”部分之后。例如,结合最常见类别的抗体IgG的那些称为Fc-γ受体(FcγR),结合IgA的那些称为Fc-α受体(FcαR),结合IgE的那些称为Fc-ε受体(FcεR)。FcR的类别还通过表达它们的细胞(巨噬细胞、粒细胞、天然杀伤细胞、T细胞和B细胞)和每种受体的信号传导特性来区分。
所有Fcγ受体(FcγR)都属于免疫球蛋白超家族,是诱导微生物吞噬作用的最重要的Fc受体。该家族包括几个成员,FcγRI(CD64)、FcγRIIA(CD32)、FcγRIIB(CD32)、FcγRIIIA(CD16a)、FcγRIIIB(CD16b),由于它们的分子结构不同,它们的抗体亲和力不同。例如,FcγRI比FcγRII或FcγRIII更强地结合IgG。FcγRI还具有由三个免疫球蛋白(Ig)样结构域组成的细胞外部分,比FcγRII或FcγRIII具有更多的结构域。这种性质允许FcγRI结合唯一的IgG分子(或单体),但所有Fcγ受体必须结合免疫复合物中的多个IgG分子才能被激活。Fc-γ受体对IgG的亲和力不同,而不同的IgG亚类对每种Fcγ受体具有独特的亲和力。这些相互作用通过IgG的位置CH2-84.4处的聚糖(寡糖)进一步调节。例如,通过产生空间位阻,含有CH2-84.4聚糖的岩藻糖降低了对FcγRIIIA的IgG亲和力。
“癌症”是指一组涉及异常细胞生长的疾病,有可能侵入或扩散到身体的其他部位。癌症与良性肿瘤形成对比,良性肿瘤不会扩散到身体的其他部位。可能的体征和症状包括肿块,异常出血,长期咳嗽,原因不明的体重减轻和排便改变。
“荷瘤小鼠”分为原发模型和移植瘤模型。研究中最常使用的是移植瘤模型,主要包括原位移植瘤和皮下移植瘤。简而言之,就是将相关的肿瘤细胞通过原位注射或者通过皮下注射入小鼠体内,使其致瘤。
“给药”指的是药物可能通过口服、注射、输液、肠外、静脉、黏膜、舌下、肌肉、皮内、鼻腔、腹腔、动脉内、皮下吸收或通过任意其他与现有技术相结合的给药方式完成。在本发明的一个实施方案中,给药是全身性的。
“有效量”指达到治疗目标所需的量。有效量与抗体对其特异抗原的结合亲和力,疾病、紊乱或病症的严重程度、给药途径、在接受给药对象中给予的抗体从自由体积耗尽的速率等有关。作为非限制性示例,本发明的抗体的治疗有效量的可以为从约0.01mg/kg到约15mg/kg患者体重,从约0.1mg/kg到约10mg/kg患者体重,或从约1mg/kg到约5mg/kg患者体重,比如约0.3mg/kg,约1mg/kg,或约3mg/kg患者体重。给药频率可以是例如每周一次到每月一次,比如每三周一次。
“患者”通常指需要诊断、预后或治疗的任何患者,特别是哺乳动物患者,包括人类、猫、豚鼠、兔子、大鼠、小鼠、马、牛等。
“糖型”是蛋白质的同种型,其仅在附着的聚糖的数量或类型方面不同。糖蛋白通常由许多不同的糖形式组成,其中附着的糖或寡糖发生改变。这些修饰可能是由于糖基化过程中生物合成的差异,或者是由于糖苷酶或糖基转移酶的作用。可以通过对分离的糖型的详细化学分析或通过凝集素亲和层析和凝集素亲和电泳等来检测糖型。
“糖基化”是碳水化合物(即糖基供体)与另一分子(糖基受体)的羟基或其他官能团连接的反应。在生物学中,糖基化主要特别指将聚糖附着到蛋白质或其他有机分子上的酶促过程。这种酶促过程产生了一种在细胞中发现的基本生物聚合物(以及DNA,RNA和蛋白质)。糖基化是共翻译和翻译后修饰的一种形式。聚糖在膜和分泌蛋白中起着多种结构和功能作用。在粗面内质网中合成的大多数蛋白质经历糖基化。它是一种酶导向的位点特异性过程,与糖化的非酶促化学反应相反。糖基化也作为O-GlcNAc修饰存在于细胞质和细胞核中。常见的 糖基化类型包括O-糖基化和N-糖基化。
如本文所用,术语“有需要”是指已将患者鉴定为需要特定方法或治疗。在一些实施例中,可以通过任何诊断方式进行识别。在本文描述的任何方法和治疗中,患者可能需要。
“约”指相关技术领域技术人员容易知道的相应数值的常规误差范围。在一些实施方式中,本文中提到“约”指所描述的数值以及其±10%、±5%或±1%的范围。
本发明中缓冲剂的量,是指组成缓冲剂的缓冲体系中缓冲对的总量。在一些实施方式中,采用摩尔浓度作为缓冲剂的量的单位,其数值指缓冲剂的缓冲体系中缓冲对的摩尔浓度。如,由组氨酸和组氨酸盐酸盐组成的组氨酸缓冲剂作为缓冲剂时,给定浓度的组氨酸缓冲剂(如20mM)是组氨酸和组氨酸盐酸盐的组合浓度(如组氨酸为8mM,组氨酸盐酸盐为12mM;或者组氨酸为6mM,组氨酸盐酸盐为14mM;或者组氨酸为8.46mM,组氨酸盐酸盐为11.54mM等)。
本发明所述的制剂可以用所述辅料或其水合物或盐类配制。比如组氨酸盐酸盐,又称盐酸组氨酸,可以是无水组氨酸盐酸盐,也可以是组氨酸盐酸盐水合物,如组氨酸盐酸盐一水合物;如,“12mM组氨酸盐酸盐”可以为1L液体制剂中含有12mmol组氨酸盐酸盐或12mmol组氨酸盐酸盐一水合物;如,制剂中加入“2.52g组氨酸盐酸盐一水合物”等同于制剂中加入2.3g组氨酸盐酸盐。又比如,制剂中既可以加入海藻糖,又可以加入对应量的海藻糖二水合物;如,“225mM海藻糖”可以为1L液体制剂中含有225mmol海藻糖或225mmol海藻糖二水合物;如,制剂中加入“85g海藻糖二水合物”等同于制剂中加入76.9g海藻糖。又比如,制剂中既可以加入依地酸(EDTA)二钠,又可以加入对应量的依地酸二钠二水合物或依地酸;如,“0.033mg/mL依地酸二钠”可以为1L液体制剂中加入0.037g依地酸二钠二水合物或0.033g依地酸二钠或0.029g依地酸。
患者疾病“治疗”指的是(1)阻止疾病在有倾向性或还没表现疾病症状的患者中出现;(2)抑制疾病或症状或阻止其发展;或(3)减轻或消除疾病或症状或致其退化。
“稳定性”是指包含抗体的液体制剂中,抗体或其片段在给定的生产、制备、运输和/或贮存条件下不发生、或仅极少地发生聚集、降解或片段化。“稳定”制剂在给定的生产、制备、运输和/或贮存条件下保持生物学活性。可通过例如SEC-HPLC、IEC-HPLC、CE-SDS(NR)、灯检及浑浊度、不溶性颗粒、DLS检测粒子粒径等技术测量的所述制剂的聚集、降解或片段化程度等,从而评估所述抗体的稳定性。在一些实施方案中,“稳定”制剂指制剂在室温可稳定保存至少3个月、至少6个月或至少12个月。

用HBS-EP(0.01M HEPES,0.15M NaCl,3mM EDTA,0.005%P20,pH 7.4)稀释至5μg/mL,抗原CTLA-4-His用HBS-EP稀释至100nM,并以此为起始浓度作2倍梯度稀释,得100、50、25、12.5、6.25、3.125nM的CTLA-4-His稀释液。用Protein A芯片(GE Healthcare)进行检测,5μg/ml药物稀释液以10μl/min的流速通过实验流路(Fc2、Fc4),捕获15s使捕获量约为600RU;之后流速调为30μL/min,依次进分析物不同浓度的CTLA-4-His稀释液(0、3.125、6.25、12.5、25、50、100nM),同时经过实验流路(Fc2、Fc4)和参比流路(Fc1、Fc3)表面,结合时间180s,解离时间600s,最后进Glycine 1.5缓冲液60s对芯片进行再生并进入下一个循环。用数据分析软件Evaluation Software3.1对试验结果进行分析,将样品试验流路采集所得传感信号进行参比流路、样品空白双扣减,并选用动力学“1:1”模型进行拟合,得出各抗体样品对CTLA-4亲和结合的动力学参数,见表2。Biacore曲线拟合见图3(其中Yervoy_930395为

注:ka:结合速率;kd:解离速率;KD:结合解离平衡常数,也即亲和力。
结论:抗体2、抗体1蛋白与CTLA-4抗原的结合,在ELISA和BIAcore上均显示出相似的结合活性。说明在抗CTLA-4抗体上进行ADCC的增强并没有改变其与CTLA-4抗原的结合能力。

配置缓冲液,通过UF/DF超滤采用过滤后的缓冲液对抗体溶液进行超滤换液,然后进行浓缩得到抗体浓缩物;按照配方比例配制适当的含有缓冲剂和/或稳定剂和/或表面活性剂和/或螯合剂的辅料母液,调节到合适的pH值;将适当量的无菌过滤后的辅料母液添加到适当量的抗体浓缩物中,得到液体制剂。实施例中采用的溶剂为注射用水。
1)缓冲剂筛选
采用多种缓冲剂体系进行抗体稳定性研究。鉴于抗CTLA-4抗体的性质,本发明初步筛选后确定以下多种缓冲剂体系:His、HAc、CB、Sua、Tris。
上述各英文缩写的含义:
His:20mM组氨酸缓冲剂,pH 5.8;
HAc:20mM醋酸缓冲剂,pH 5.8;
CB:20mM柠檬酸缓冲剂,pH 5.8;
Sua:20mM琥珀酸缓冲剂,pH 5.8;
Tris:20mM三羟甲基氨基甲烷盐酸盐,pH 7.0。
进行稳定性实验的抗体-缓冲剂体系中,His、HAc、CB、Sua所含有的抗体2为10mg/mL,缓冲剂为20mM,缓冲液的pH值为5.8。研究各种配方在高温40℃的条件下放置4周,单体纯度(SEC-HPLC,简称SEC)和电荷异构体(IEC-HPLC,简称IEC)变化的趋势,见表9。
表9缓冲剂筛选
根据以上实验结果,组氨酸缓冲剂为最优缓冲剂,醋酸缓冲剂次之,Tris缓冲剂较差:组氨酸缓冲液中SEC-HPLC单体纯度和IEC-HPLC主峰含量都高于其他缓冲体系。可见,组氨酸缓冲液对抗体2的保护作用最优。
2)pH范围初步筛选
进行pH范围筛选的体系中,所含有的抗体、缓冲剂见表10。
表10 pH范围筛选
根据以上结果,当抗体加入缓冲液高温(40℃)测试中(缓冲液中未加入其他成分),当缓冲体系是pH值为5.5-6.5(不包括6.5)的组氨酸缓冲液时,其SEC-HPLC聚体和IEC-HPLC酸峰含量相对较低,SEC-HPLC单体纯度和IEC-HPLC主峰含量相对较高。

表11 pH精细筛选
根据以上结果,当抗体2中加入的缓冲液中还加入稳定剂、金属离子螯合剂、表面活性 剂时,当缓冲体系是pH值为5.4-6.2的组氨酸缓冲液时,其稳定性较好,以pH值为5.8更好。
4)表面活性剂振荡稳定性研究

在抗体制剂中,在剧烈的振荡下,容易发生聚集,产生不溶性颗粒,可以通过添加一定量的表面活性剂来防止。在本实验中,向含有缓冲液、稳定剂、金属离子螯合剂的配方中分别添加0.1mg/mL聚山梨酯20、0.2mg/mL聚山梨酯20、0.4mg/mL聚山梨酯20、0.1mg/mL聚山梨酯80、0.2mg/mL聚山梨酯80、0.4mg/mL聚山梨酯80,观察在振荡72h后样品的质量与浊度。实验条件:把不同表面活性剂组合的制剂,在200rpm下,平放,常温振荡72h,在振荡0h及72h检测溶液性状、SEC、IEC、浊度,结果见表12。
表12表面活性剂筛选
结果显示,在振荡的过程中,加入的0.1-0.4mg/mL聚山梨酯20或聚山梨酯80表面活性剂都能对抗体蛋白起到保护作用,浊度没有明显变化。
5)液体制剂配方
本发明液体制剂能够稳定保存活性成分抗体2,稳定性较好的制剂配方如本发明液体制剂A、B、C、D、E、F、G、H、I;其中,J制剂作为对比制剂,如下表。
表13A 液体制剂A配方
表13B 液体制剂B配方
表13C 液体制剂C配方
表13D 液体制剂D配方
表13E 液体制剂E配方
表13F 液体制剂F配方
表13G 液体制剂G配方
表13H 液体制剂H配方
表13I 液体制剂I配方
表13J 液体制剂J配方
6)冻融实验
在抗体制剂中,经过冷冻/复融循环时,容易产生不溶性颗粒,可以通过添加稳定剂、表面活性剂来稳定抗体。本发明液体制剂B的反复冻融结果见表14。
表14液体制剂B的冻融实验结果
结果表明,本发明液体制剂B从-80℃冻结,37℃解冻,反复冻融五次,澄清度、颜色、不溶性微粒、SEC-HPLC、IEC-HPLC均没有明显变化,说明该制剂在反复冻融实验中性质稳定,无析出物,不影响抗体2的性状。
7)加速稳定性研究
将上述制剂A、制剂B、制剂C、制剂D、制剂E、制剂F、制剂G、制剂H、制剂I和制剂J放置于恒温箱中,在25±2℃的条件下放置6个月,分别于第0、2、3、6个月末取样。按稳定性重点考察项目进行检测,考察抗体2的单体纯度(SEC-HPLC)、电荷异构体(IEC-HPLC)、非还原毛细管凝胶电泳(CE-SDS(NR)),见表15、表16。
表15加速稳定性研究的SEC-HPLC结果
表16加速稳定性研究的IEC-HPLC结果
结果表明,制剂J在SEC-HPLC中,单体下降较其他制剂快,表现为聚体的增加;IEC-HPLC主峰下降迅速,表现为酸峰的快速增加;这意味着对比制剂J不能稳定地保存抗体2,而本发明制剂A-I能稳定地保存抗体2,尤其是本发明制剂B。
8)相容性检测
通过加速稳定性实验以及长期稳定性实验,得出本发明液体制剂与药瓶和胶塞具有良好的相容性,符合包装的要求。
