| Popis: | BiTE antibodies are designed to transiently connect target cells with T cells of patients for induction of potent redirected lysis of cancer cells. Clinical proof-of-concept has been obtained with CD19/CD3-bispecific BiTE antibody blinatumomab (MT103), which showed a high response rate in patients with relapsed/refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and acute B-lymphocytic leukemia. An EpCAM/CD3-bispecific BiTE antibody called MT110 currently is in a dose-escalating phase 1 study in patients with lung or gastrointestinal cancers, and BiTE antibodies targeting carcinoembryonal antigen (CEA), EGFR, CD33 or melanoma chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (MCSP) are in earlier stages of development. Here, we have generated a series of novel BiTE antibodies for cancer therapy that are based on our novel BiTE antibody platform, which is human in sequence and cross-reactive between human and non-human primate antigens. One set of target antigens selected for new BiTE generation is also targeted by conventional monoclonal antibodies that are in various stages of clinical development. These are mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (cMet), insulin-like growth factor receptor type I (IGFR-1), prostate-specific stem cell antigen (PSCA), carboanhydrase type IX (CAIX) and Her2/neu. These targets are all expressed by cancer cells of solid tumors, and some also by their so-called cancer stem cells. By targeting fibroblast activating protein alpha (FAP-alpha), a first BiTE antibody was generated that not only targets sarcoma cells but also stromal fibroblasts, which constitute the stromal tissue of many human cancers. By targeting endosialin (CD248), a first BiTE antibody was generated targeting cancer blood vasculature. We show that various single-chain antibodies specific for the seven target antigens cMet, IGFR-1, FAP-alpha, PSCA, CAIX, Her2/neu and endosialin could in each case be used to construct novel BiTE antibodies. All BiTE antibodies showed bispecific binding, cross-reactivity between human and Cynomolgus monkey antigens, and, most importantly, potent redirected lysis of CHO cells expressing the respective target antigen. This shows that new T cell-engaging BiTE antibodies can be made specific for a great variety of potential tumor-associated and also for stromal antigens.
