ENHANCING ANTIBODY BINDING, SPECIFICITY AND DRUG-LIKE PROPERTIES

UnpublishedData

Case Study

9:00 Antibody Engineering for Better in vivo EfficacyWeidong Jiang, Ph.D., CSO, Henlius Biopharmaceuticals, Inc.Antibody engineering is a great tool for improving antibody functions in vivo. We have routinely engineered therapeutic antibodies for better in vivo efficacies via affinity maturation, specifically by improving on-rate of the antibody binding affinities. One particular case will be reported here for better functions in vivo as well as other functions such as immunogenicity improvement.

UnpublishedData

9:30 In vitro and in vivo Study of pH-Dependent Antigen Binding Antibody with Increased FcgammaRIIB BindingYuji Hori, Ph.D., Research Scientist, Chugai Pharmaceutical, JapanSweeping antibody with enhanced FcR mediated cellular uptake of antibody-antigen complex and pH-dependent endosomal antigen dissociation enables antigen elimination from plasma, providing enhanced efficacy and novel mode of action for antibody therapeutics. This talk will present an in vivo profile of sweeping antibody and its in vitro confocal microscopic study to address the intracellular trafficking of the soluble antigen.

10:00 Design and Develop Next-Generation Bispecific Antibodies with Good Drug Like Properties (DLP)Jinming Gu, Ph.D., Senior Scientist, Global Biologics, Abbvie, Inc.Bispecific antibodies have emerged as the next generation of antibody-based therapeutics. So far, there have been more than 50 different bispecific antibody platforms published in the literature. However, it continues to be a major challenge to identify bispecific antibodies with good drug like properties which functions preclinically. This presentation will discuss different approaches we are utilizing to design and develop bispecific antibodies with good drug like properties.

NOVEL PROTEINS AND ALTERNATIVE SCAFFOLDS

UnpublishedData

11:00 Anticalins: Versatile Binding Proteins based on a Flexible Natural ScaffoldArne Skerra, Ph.D., Professor, Technische Universität München; Founder, Pieris AG, GermanyAnticalins are derived from human lipocalins, whose four structurally hypervariable loops form a binding site that can be tailored against medically relevant targets. However, anticalins are much smaller and comprise a single polypeptide chain, offering facile production in microbial hosts and flexible formatting: multiple specificities, attachment of payloads and extended plasma half-life via PEGylation or PASylation. Two anticalins have reached clinical stage for therapeutic applications.

11:30 ADAPT - A Novel Scaffold Protein for Radionuclide Molecular ImagingJohan Nilvebrant, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher, The Donnelly Centre, Center for Cellular and Biomolecular Research, University of Toronto, CanadaADAPTs (ABD-derived affinity proteins) are a novel class of scaffold-based affinity proteins, which are derived from the albumin-binding domain (ABD) of streptococcal protein G. They have been generated in a bispecific format to target various antigens. These radiolabeled ADAPTs were recently used to provide high contrast PET-images of HER2 positive tumor xenografts shortly after injection and show promise as a new class of imaging agents.

NOVEL DISCOVERY AND SCREENING STRATEGIES9:00 Novel Fully Human Antibody Development Towards Immune Regulators Yan Luan, Ph.D., Director, DingFu Biotarget Co.Novel fully human antibodies targeting immune checkpoints were developed by yeast display systems. My presentation will includes a platform introduction as well as Case study about PD-L1 antagonist Ab development. Both biology and developability are considered and evaluated.

Case Study

9:30 Drug Discovery Using a Modular Antibody Platform™Haijun Sun, Ph.D., Vice President, Tumor Biology and Protein Sciences, F-Star Biotechnology, United KingdomIn this presentation, we will discuss our Modular Antibody Platform and highlight some of the key steps during the discovery phase to select the best monospecific or bispecific therapeutic candidates. Several case studies from preclinical programs will be discussed.

10:00 Establishment of an Innovative High-Throughput Platform for Next-Generation Binder DiscoveryJonas V. Schaefer, Ph.D., Head, High-Throughput Laboratory, Department of Biochemistry, University of Zurich, SwitzerlandTo optimize the efficiency and capacity of next-generation binder selections and discovery, our laboratory established a streamlined process, consisting of parallel Ribosome Display selections and various semi-automated high-throughput screenings. We now can perform simultaneous selections against 94 targets and subsequently screen and validate several thousand binders in parallel for their binding and biophysical characteristics. This results in the need of testing fewer candidates to eventually find the most promising lead candidates.

10:30 Coffee Break

ANTIBODIES AGAINST COMPLEX & CHALLENGING TARGETS

11:00 Strategy for Identifying Allosteric Antibody that Modulates Membrane ReceptorMichelle Yuqing Shen, Ph.D., Senior Scientist, Amgen China R&DWe developed a screening strategy using in vitro cell-based assays to identify antibodies that enhanced endogenous ligand signaling. Furthermore, we applied binding assays to reveal those antibodies that do not compete with endogenous ligand binding to receptors. This mechanism of action leverages on enhancement of endogenous ligand signaling while offers greater receptor selectivity and better safety profile owing to allosteric binding to receptors and modulators’ ceiling effect.

ANTIBODIES AGAINST INFECTIOUS DISEASES1:50 Synthetic Antibodies for Ebola Virus Immunotherapy and ResearchJonathan R. Lai, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Biochemistry, Albert Einstein College of MedicineSynthetic antibody engineering is an emerging technology for the identification of highly specific antibodies from large molecular display libraries. Here, we will show the application of this method to discover potential immunotherapies and research reagents for Ebola virus. We have identified novel synthetic antibodies against the glycoproteins of the Zaire (EBOV) and Sudan (SUDV) Ebolavirus species. These antibodies have neutralization potential and, in the case of SUDV, afford post-exposure protection of mice.

2:20 Novel Strategies for Isolation of Antibodies Against Infectious Disease TargetsStephen Mahler, Ph.D., Professor, Australian Institute for Bioengineering and Nanotechnology, University of Queensland, AustraliaUsing either immunised or naïve libraries and phage display technology, we demonstrate novel strategies for isolation of antibodies that bind immunodominant and non-immunodominant epitopes of viral antigens. The strategies include biopanning against recombinant viral antigens, peptides, antigens expressed on host cell surface and also the use of molecular scaffolds to display viral protein domains. Strategies for isolation of novel antibodies that bind Dengue and Malaria antigens are presented.

2:50 The Development of Antibody-Based Therapeutics for the Treatment of Emerging Infectious DiseasesTianlei Ying, Ph.D., Head, Antibody Engineering and Drug Discovery Group, School of Basic Medical Science, Fudan UniversityEmerging infectious diseases are currently the major threat to public health. By using human antibody libraries and in vitro display technologies we have identified potent neutralizing antibodies against some new viruses including MERS-CoV and avian influenza viruses. We also have been working on the engineering of novel antibody fragments with small size and long in vivo half-lives.

NOVEL PROTEINS AND ALTERNATIVE SCAFFOLDS (cont’d)1:50 Exceptionally Potent and Broad Inhibitors of HIV-1 based on Antibody Domains and One Domain Soluble CD4 Multivalent Fusion ProteinsDimiter Dimitrov, Ph.D., Senior Investigator, NCI, National Institutes of HealthWe generated bispecific multivalent fusion proteins of an engineered cavity-altered single-domain CD4 with another potent HIV-1 inhibitor - an antibody domain targeting the coreceptor-binding site on gp120. The fusion proteins neutralized all HIV-1 isolates tested with potency about 10-, 50-, and 200-fold higher than that of VRC01, T20, and sCD4-Fc fusion protein CD4-Ig, respectively. These fusion proteins could be potentially useful for HIV-1 therapy including eradication of the virus.

2:20 Cross-Neutralizing Single-Domain Antibodies to Pandemic InfluenzaSimon E. Hufton, Ph.D., Principal Scientist, Biotherapeutics, National Institute for Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC)The response to the 2009 A(H1N1) influenza pandemic has highlighted the need for additional strategies for intervention which preclude the prior availability of the influenza strain. We have isolated single domain antibodies with broad neutralisation activity from immunised alpaca’s and used yeast display technology to investigate antibody/antigen interactions to assist in the understanding of their mechanism of action. These single domain antibodies are attractive candidates for diagnostics and immunotherapy of pandemic influenza.

2:50 Meditopes: Development of Noncovalent Peptide-Fab Interaction to Rapidly and Specifically Add Functionality to mAbsJohn C. Williams, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Molecular Medicine, Beckman Research Institute at City of HopeMAbs require chemical conjugation and/or extensive re-engineering to deliver toxins, imaging agents and other functionalities to diseased tissues. Herein, we present the discovery of a novel cyclic peptide (aka a meditope) that binds to the cavity of cetuximab Fab. While this binding site is unique to cetuximab, it can be grafted on to mAbs. Studies will be presented highlighting the rapid and efficient functionalization of mAbs.

4:40 Antibody Development Strategies in Today’s ChinaChengbin Wu, Ph.D., President, R&D and CSO, Shanghai C.P. Guojian Pharamceutical Co. Ltd., PR ChinaIn the past 10 years, commercial manufacturing of antibodies at GMP standard has become possible in China, leading to successful commercialization of several antibody-based therapeutics, with many more in various stages of development.

This talk will provide a brief overview of antibody development in China, with a case study discussing key aspects of developing an anti-Her2 antibody that has completed Phase III clinical trials in China.

5:10 Designing and Engineering Novel Bispecific/Bifunctional Antibodies and Fusion Proteins for Enhanced Antitumor ActivityZhenping Zhu, Ph.D., Executive Vice President, Global Biopharmaceuticals, Kadmon CorporationMajor obstacles in the successful development of BsAb (bispecific antibodies) have been the difficulties of designing and constructing a druggable molecule and producing sufficient materials for development and commercialization. The technological

challenge is to construct a recombinant molecule with good pharmaceutical properties. Developing highly effective BsAb and bifunctional proteins will require clear elucidation and understanding of the molecular details in the aberrant signaling pathways that lead to various diseases to guide the selection of the target pairs for co-targeting.

GENERATING ANTIBODIES AND COMPLEX PROTEINS WITH IMPROVED PROPERTIES

9:00 Stable Human Antibody Therapeutics and Biobetters through Engineering of Complementarity Determining RegionsDaniel Christ, Ph.D., Associate Professor & Head, Antibody Therapeutics, Immunology Program, Garvan institute of Medical Research, AustraliaWe have recently identified aggregation hotspots in the CDR regions of antibody variable domains, and have developed generally applicable phage display strategies to overcome these limitations. Here we outline the application of the technology to human IgG antibody therapeutics, and present examples of how the approach can be utilised for the ‘retrofitting’ of preclinical and clinical candidate molecules, as well as biobetters.

9:30 Identification of Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cell-Specific Targets by Phage DisplayHong Qin, M.D., Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Lymphoma & Myeloma, MD Anderson Cancer CenterWe identified two novel, mouse MDSC-specific peptides using phage display technology. The engineered peptides (peptibodies) efficiently depleted systemic and intratumoral MDSC in tumor-bearing mice, but did not affect other proinflammatory cell types. Proteomic analysis of cell surface membrane proteins precipitated by the peptibodies suggests that the lead candidate target on the surface of MDSC is S100 family proteins (S100A9/A8). Hence, we developed a technical platform of cell-specific marker discovery.

11:10 Clinical Development of Tanibirumab and Its Bispecific Antibody, DIG-KTJin-San Yoo, Ph.D., President & CEO, PharmAbcine, Inc., KoreaTanibirumab has completed a Phase I study. In contrast to other KDR pathway antagonists, Tanibirumab did not cause hypertension and hemorrhage side effects, and due to its cross-species cross reactivity, it has been possible to assess in in vivo efficacy studies. I’ll discuss Tanibirumab’s Phase I&II GBM trials, and development of bispecific next-generation products to enable Tanibirumab to reach its full potential.

11:40 Bispecific Antibody Formats Tailored for Specific ApplicationsJochen Kruip, Ph.D., Department Head, BioInnovation Novel Therapeutic Protein Formats, SanofiBesides a bispecific antibody targeting Il13- and IL4 (currently in phase II) we have further developed our original format to allow specific applications such as T cell engagement.

12:10 pm Targeted Delivery of Nanomedicines Using Bispecific AntibodiesStephen Mahler, Ph.D., Professor, Australian Institute for Bioengineering and Nanotechnology, University of QueenslandAlthough there are around 8 nanomedicines approved for cancer therapy, none of these are actively targeted to cancer receptors. Active targeting can increase the proportion of drug payload that reaches the tumour site(s). The utility of targeting nanoparticles to tumour cells with bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) is demonstrated, whereby one arm binds the nanoparticle, and the other the target. The use of BsAbs has several advantages over chemical conjugation of antibody fragments to nanoparticles.

NOVEL PAYLOADS, LINKERS AND SITES

UnpublishedData

9:00 ADCs based on RNA Polymerase II Inhibiting ToxinsAndreas Pahl, Ph.D., CSO, Heidelberg Pharma GmbHPayloads of today’s ADCs are exclusively based on compounds acting on microtubules or DNA and seem to suffer from various limitations. New generations of payloads enter the field including Heidelberg Pharma’s amanitin, a highly effective inhibitor of the eukaryotic RNA Polymerase II. Due to its unique mode of action and its hydrophilic properties, this toxin differs from well-known payloads. This presentation will summarize the current status of this new toxin.

9:30 Cancer Stem Cell Targeting with Antibody-Drug Conjugate Payloads and Linker TechnologiesRiley Ennis, MSc, Thiel Fellow, Cell and Molecular Biology, Dartmouth CollegeA challenge with current antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) is to improve patient outcomes by circumventing drug resistance, disease recurrence, and cancer stem cells. We explore a novel cytotoxic payload, Azonafides, that can be integrated into ADC platforms. This cytotoxin is more stable in circulation, has unique mechanisms of action, and is derived from natural products. Azonafides create an exciting clinical opportunity to improve the therapeutic window, efficacy, and safety of ADCs.

10:00 New Linker Chemistries for Expanding the Utility of ADCsThomas Pillow, Ph.D., Scientist, Discovery Chemistry, Genentech, Inc.This presentation will describe the use of potent anthracycline and PBD payloads for second generation HER2-targeted ADCs, and how different linkers to these payloads can be used to tune the therapeutic activity. A new linker that takes advantage of the site-specificity of THIOMABTM technology will be described. Additionally, the presentation will describe the application of ADCs to non-oncology indications.

11:40 Bidentate Linkers for Site-Specific Conjugation and Improvement of Homogeneity and Other Druggabilities in ADCBruce Nianhe Han, Ph.D., CSO, Research & Development, NewBio Therapeutics, PR ChinaWe have discovered new linkers, bis(maleimde)derivatives which can conjugate small molecule toxins to antibodies in site-specific manner. With this technology, no antibody engineering is required and we only need to use the interchain disulfide bonds of IgG to perform conjugation. The resulting final products have high percentage of ADC with defined antibody-drug ratios. These homogeneous ADCs have also shown improved in vitro and in vivo stability, and other related druggabilities.

CHARACTERIZING AGGREGATES AND IMPURITIES »FEATURED PRESENTATION

9:00 Kinetic and Thermodynamic Landscape of Protein AggregationBilikallahalli Muralidhara, Ph.D., Associate Director, Vaccines & Biologics, Biopharmaceutical Development, MedImmune, Inc.Protein folding and aggregation are kinetically controlled processes, however understanding and drawing correlation between the two phenomenon for large and cofactor binding proteins is fairly complex. Thermodynamics stability parameters derived from kinetic and equilibrium studies predict the propensity of protein molecules to aggregation and sub-visible/visible particle formation. Case studies of co-factor modulated protein stability and correlations to aggregation/particle formation will be presented.

9:30 Subvisible Particles in Biotherapeutics: Evolving Regulatory Landscape and Product DevelopmentSatish K. Singh, Ph.D., Research Fellow, Biotherapeutics Pharmaceutical Sciences, Pfizer, Inc.Proteinaceous particles arise from growth of aggregates and are thus an early indicator for product stability, as well as product and process consistency. These particles are also considered a risk factor for immunogenicity. Regulatory requirements on the monitoring and reporting of these particles have been enhanced. This talk will examine this evolving technical and regulatory landscape, and their incorporation into product development strategy.

11:10 Estimation of Shelf Life based on Accelerated Stability StudiesWei Wang, Ph.D., Associate Research Fellow, Pharmaceutical R&D, Pfizer, Inc.Estimation of the product shelf life is often based on accelerated stability studies during the early stage of product development. These short-term studies allow rapid evaluation and optimization of product stability. Such data, however, may not always predict accurately the real-time shelf life for biologics. This presentation discusses the general principles, challenges, and options in shelf life estimation.

11:40 Large Impact of Single Amino Acid Mutation on the Stability,

UnpublishedData

Solubility and Viscosity of Engineered Monoclonal AntibodiesMasaru Muraoka, Ph.D., Research Scientist, Discovery Research Department, Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., JapanIn protein engineering of monoclonal antibodies, conferring pH-dependent antigen binding property is a common technique for improving therapeutic potential. However, in some cases, such protein engineering, even with single amino acid mutation, has an adverse effect on the stability, solubility and viscosity of monoclonal antibody. This talk will present case studies covering these issues and discuss the strategies for protein engineering.

SITE-SPECIFIC CONJUGATIONS FOR PRODUCTION OF HOMOGENEOUS ADCs

2:05 Site-Specific Conjugations for Well-Defined and Stable ADCsChangshou Gao, Ph.D., Fellow, R&D, Department of Antibody Discovery & Protein Engineering, MedImmune, LLC.Significant effort has been devoted recently to developing site-specific conjugations for producing homogenous ADCs with well-defined drug to antibody ratios. This presentation will discuss our approaches to generate ADCs with different conjugation chemistries that allow precise control of conjugation site and stoichiometry. Upon conjugation to a drug, the site-specific ADCs showed enhanced stability, increased in vivo anti-tumor efficacy, and decreased off-target toxicity.

2:35 Overcoming Challenges and Enhancing Production of Antibody for Site-Specific Antibody-Drug ConjugatesMarie Zhu, Ph.D., Director, Process Sciences, Agensys, Inc./Astellas, Inc.ADCs have been emerging as a new class of anticancer therapeutics, in which monoclonal antibodies are designed to deliver a cytotoxic drug selectively to antigen expressing cells. The site-specific ADC technology we are using results in ADCs with a homogenous drug-antibody ratio. In this study, we investigate how the cell line development process impacts on antibody expression, and how feed media components and cell culture processes affect cell growth and antibody production.
