Epitope mapping of anti-drug antibodies to a clinical candidate bispecific antibody.

ABSTRACT: Anti-drug antibodies (ADA) can limit the efficacy and safety of therapeutic antibodies. However, determining the exact nature of ADA interactions with the target drug via epitope mapping is challenging due to the polyclonal nature of the IgG response. Here, we demonstrate successful proof-of-concept for the application of hydroxyl radical footprinting (HRF)-mass spectrometry for epitope mapping of ADAs obtained from goats that were administered a knob-into-hole bispecific antibody (BsAb1). Subsequently, we performed epitope mapping of ADAs obtained from cynomolgus (cyno) monkeys that were administered BsAb1 as we described in a recently published paper. Herein, we provide the first data to demonstrate the feasibility of using HRF for ADA epitope mapping, and show that both goat and cyno-derived ADAs specifically target the complementary-determining regions in both arms of BsAb1, suggesting that the ADA epitopes on BsAb1 may be species-independent.

Project description:IntroductionIncreasing evidence has suggested that linear epitopes of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) directed to myeloperoxidase (MPO) might provide clues to the pathogenesis of propylthiouracil (PTU)-induced ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV). This study mapped epitopes of MPO-ANCA in sera from patients with PTU-induced MPO-ANCA (with or without vasculitis) and primary AAV, aiming to analyze certain epitopes associated with the development of PTU-induced AAV.MethodsSix recombinant linear fragments, covering the whole amino acid sequence of a single chain of MPO, were produced from Escherichia coli. Sera from 17 patients with PTU-induced AAV, 17 patients with PTU-induced MPO-ANCA but without clinical evidence of vasculitis, and 64 patients with primary AAV were collected at presentation. Of the 17 patients with PTU-induced AAV, 12 also had sera at remission. The epitope specificities were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay by using the recombinant fragments as solid-phase ligands.ResultsCompared with patients with PTU-induced MPO-ANCA but without clinical vasculitis, sera from PTU-induced AAV patients showed significantly higher reactivity against the H1 fragment of MPO (optical density values: 0.17 (0.10 to 0.35) versus 0.10 (0.04 to 0.21), P?=?0.038) and could recognize a significantly higher number of fragments (two (none to four) versus one (none to two), P?=?0.026). Compared with sera from primary AAV patients, sera from PTU-induced AAV patients had significantly higher reactivity to the P fragment and the H4 fragment (47.1% versus 14.1% P?<?0.001; 41.2% versus 14.1%, P?=?0.034, respectively), and could recognize a significantly higher number of fragments (two (none to four) versus one (none to two), P?=?0.013]. Among the 12 PTU-induced AAV patients with sequential samples, the number of fragments recognized in remission was significantly less than that in initial onset (two (none to four) versus none (none to 0.75), P?<?0.001].ConclusionsLinear epitopes of MPO molecules might be associated closely with PTU-induced AAV. In particular, the P and H4 fragments may be important epitopes in PTU-induced AAV.
