Preclinical evaluation of multistep targeting of diasialoganglioside GD2 using an IgG-scFv bispecific antibody with high affinity for GD2 and DOTA metal complex.

ABSTRACT: Bispecific antibodies (BsAb) have proven to be useful targeting vectors for pretargeted radioimmunotherapy (PRIT). We sought to overcome key PRIT limitations such as high renal radiation exposure and immunogenicity (e.g., of streptavidin-antibody fusions), to advance clinical translation of this PRIT strategy for diasialoganglioside GD2-positive [GD2(+)] tumors. For this purpose, an IgG-scFv BsAb was engineered using the sequences for the anti-GD2 humanized monoclonal antibody hu3F8 and C825, a murine scFv antibody with high affinity for the chelator 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) complexed with ?-particle-emitting radiometals such as (177)Lu and (90)Y. A three-step regimen, including hu3F8-C825, a dextran-based clearing agent, and p-aminobenzyl-DOTA radiolabeled with (177)Lu (as (177)Lu-DOTA-Bn; t1/2 = 6.71 days), was optimized in immunocompromised mice carrying subcutaneous human GD2(+) neuroblastoma (NB) xenografts. Absorbed doses for tumor and normal tissues were approximately 85 cGy/MBq and ?3.7 cGy/MBq, respectively, with therapeutic indices (TI) of 142 for blood and 23 for kidney. A therapy study (n = 5/group; tumor volume, 240 ± 160 mm(3)) with three successive PRIT cycles (total (177)Lu: ?33 MBq; tumor dose ?3,400 cGy), revealed complete tumor response in 5 of 5 animals, with no recurrence up to 28 days after treatment. Tumor ablation was confirmed histologically in 4 of 5 mice, and normal organs showed minimal overall toxicities. All nontreated mice required sacrifice within 12 days (>1.0-cm(3) tumor volume). We conclude that this novel anti-GD2 PRIT approach has sufficient TI to successfully ablate subcutaneous GD2(+)-NB in mice while sparing kidney and bone marrow.

Project description:T cell redirection mediated by bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) is a promising cancer therapy. Dual antigen binding is necessary for potent T cell redirection and is influenced by the structural characteristics of a BsAb, which are dependent on its IgG subclass. In this study, model BsAbs targeting CD19xCD3 were generated in variants of IgG1, IgG2, and IgG4 carrying Fc mutations that reduce Fc?R interaction, and two chimeric IgG subclasses termed IgG1:2 and IgG4:2, in which the IgG1- or IgG4-F(ab)2 are grafted on an IgG2 Fc. Molecules containing an IgG2 or IgG4-F(ab)2 domain were confirmed to be the most structurally compact molecules. All BsAbs were shown to bind both of their target proteins (and corresponding cells) equally well. However, CD19xCD3 IgG2 did not bind both antigens simultaneously as measured by the absence of cellular clustering of T cells with target cells. This translated to a reduced potency of IgG2 BsAbs in T-cell redirection assays. The activity of IgG2 BsAbs was fully restored in the chimeric subclasses IgG4:2 and IgG1:2. This confirmed the major contribution of the F(ab)2 region to the BsAb's functional activity and demonstrated that function of BsAbs can be modulated by engineering molecules combining different Fc and F(ab)2 domains.
