About This Presentation

Slide 1 - Antibodies as Drugs Lauren Lahey April 26, 2007
Slide 2 - Overview An emerging theme Historical breakthroughs Terms to know A look at antibody structure Production of monoclonal antibodies Antibodies as biopharmaceutical Autoimmune Disease Rheumatoid Arthritis Variations and future directions
Slide 3 - Emerging Themes Antibodies are naturally occurring Discovery of their innate properties hinted at great therapeutic potential High-specificity in binding Already present in the body Can activate and couple components of the immune system Modification to structure and refinement in production methods have made antibodies a viable modern drug
Slide 4 - At the turn of the 20th century: Emil Adolf von Behring Developed serum therapy as an effective treatment against diphtheria and tetanus For this, he received the first ever Noble Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1901 The serum derived from immunized animals was latter shown to be effective because of the antibodies it contained Paul Ehrlich Side-chain theory: Toxins and antitoxins were chemical substances Antitoxins were side-chains on cells that could bind with a toxin like a lock and key Predicted autoimmunity or “horror autotoxicus” Received the 1908 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his work in immunity
Slide 5 - More recently: “Discovery” of antibody chemical structure Gerald Edelman and Rodney Porter, circa 1961 Received the 1972 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine Development of hybridoma technology Jerne, Kohler, and Milstein, 1975 Received the 1984 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine Production of the 1st monoclonal antibody In 1986, OKT-3 was approved for use in organ transplant rejection
Slide 6 - Important Terms Antibody – immunoglobulin secreted by B cells Antigen (antibody generator) – any substance capable of eliciting an adaptive immune response Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) – antibodies secreted from a single B cell, have identical paratopes Epitope – region of the antigen recognized by an antibody Paratope – region of the antibody that binds the epitope
Slide 7 - The Structure of an Antibody 2 identical light chains (~220 amino acids long) Variable domain: VL Constant domain: CL 2 identical heavy chains (~440 amino acids long) Variable domain: VH 3 Constant domains: CH1, CH2, CH3 Covalent, disulfide bonds between cysteine residues Flexible “hinge region”
Slide 8 - Formation of Disulfide Bonds Catalyzed in the Endoplasmic Reticulum Do not change the protein’s conformation Reinforce a favored conformation Disulfide bonds are sensitive to reduction
Slide 9 - ppt slide no 9 content not found
Slide 10 - Hypervariable Loops A.k.a: Complementarity-Determining Regions (CDRs) Regions of increased amino acid sequence variability In each variable region, 3 CDRs interspersed in between framework regions Each CDR is between 5-10 amino acids long
Slide 11 - A Dynamic Binding Site The functional groups of the paratope (Fab) interact with the epitope (antigen) Hydrogen bonding Van der Waals forces Ionic interactions The CDRs are necessary for antigen binding The tertiary structure of this region can contain pockets, undulating flatter surfaces, and even protrusions Small antigens typically bind in deep pockets
Slide 12 - Antibody Pharmokinetics Antigen binding is reversible Antigen (Ag) + Antibody (Ab) ↔ AntigenAntibody (AgAb) [bound] Kaffinity = [AgAb] [Ag][Ab] For some therapeutic mAbs, the affinity must be balanced so that effective antigen binding occurs while tissue penetration is allowed
Slide 13 - Cross-linking All antibodies are at least bivalent Two paratopes can bind with two epitopes With 2 epitopes on a single antigen, cyclic or linear cross-linking can occur. Three or more epitopes on an antigen leads to formation of large three-dimensional lattices
Slide 14 - Mechanisms of Action Blocking action of molecular targets Can work antagonistically by binding a receptor to prevent activation Can also bind the antigen and prevent activation “Magic Bullet” Compound with target specificity is coupled with various effector groups Toxins, radionuclei, enzymes, DNA Signal molecules Coupled to mediators of apoptosis, cell division, etc.
Slide 15 - “Humanizing” Antibodies Chimeric Antibodies Murine Fv + human Fc Human anti-chimeric antibodies (HACA) still observed Humanized Antibodies Murine CDRs + human framework and Fc
Slide 16 - Production of Human Antibodies
Slide 17 - Pharmaceutical Antibodies The fastest growing segment of the biopharmaceutical market $14 billion in sales for 2005 Expected to grow to $30 billion by 2010 Today, 20 therapeutic mAbs are on the market in the US However, an estimated 500 antibody-based therapies are currently under development
Slide 18 - Nomenclature of Monoclonal Antibodies
Slide 19 - Autoimmune Disease An immune reaction against self Mechanism unknown, arises out of a failure in immune regulation Examples: Rheumatoid arthritis Systemic lupus erythematosus Multiple sclerosis (MS) Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus And the list goes on…
Slide 20 - Rheumatoid Arthritis Chronic, autoimmune disease characterized by: Severe joint inflammation Increased synovial fluid and thickened synovial membrane Destruction of bone and cartilage in several joints Elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6 Affects 1% of the US population Women are 3 times more likely to develop If untreated for 2+ more years, irreversible damage occurs
Slide 21 - Infliximab Remicade® by Johnson & Johnson Chimeric mAb Anti TNF-α Approved by the FDA in 1998 Administered intravenously Designated for use in patients who did not respond to methotrexate Proven to slow the clinical and radiological progression of rheumatoid arthritis
Slide 22 - Adalimumab Humira® by Abbott Laboratories Fully human IgG1 mAb Anti-TNF-α Approved by the FDA in 2002 Available in 1 mL Humira pens and syringes for convenient use at home
Slide 23 - Rituximab Rituxan® by Genentech Anti-B cell (CD20) antibody First approved in 1997 for use in B-cell lymphoma Given in combination with Methotrexate Directed for patients who do not respond to Anti-TNF treatments Indicates the rheumatoid arthritis has a B cell component to its pathology
Slide 24 - Interesting Variations Small antibody fragments (Fv or Fab) are also effective in blocking cytokines Benefit: More readily penetrate tissue Coupling of antibody fragments to form dimers and tetramers Increases avidity and cross-linking Engineered Diabodies Two different antigen specificities One against the target The other against effectors Can cross-link effector cells
Slide 25 - Nanobodies 1989 - Raymond Hamers Discovered in camels Completely lack the light chain! Same antigen affinity as their four-chain counterparts Structure makes them more resistant to heat and pH May lead to development of oral nanobody pills
