英文摘要
Project abstract/summary
In the proposed research, GlycoT will employ its proprietary chemoenzymatic glycan-remodeling platform to
establish a facile, robust, and scalable site-specific antibody conjugation technology. Conjugation of various
functional molecules to antibodies are frequently used for a wide variety of applications within the life science
sectors, such as fluorescent labeled antibodies for the detection and imaging, antibody-drug conjugate (ADC)
for cancer therapy, antibody-antibiotic conjugate for infectious disease treatment, LYTAC for targeted
degradation. The most exemplified application of antibody conjugation is the development of ADC therapeutics.
Over the past 10 years, ADC has been developed as one of powerful and successful avenues for the treatment
of cancer. For FDA-approved 11 ADCs and others in clinical trials, the payloads have been mainly conjugated
to antibody by non-specific random linkage to either cysteine or arginine, resulting in heterogenous ADC
regioisomers, with varied antigen affinity, aggregation potential, serum half-life, and other limitation. As a result,
site-specific ADCs with improved pharmacokinetics, and enhanced therapeutic index have been developed.
Among different approached to generate site-specific ADCs, remodeling of Fc-glycan on the conserved Asn-297
position to generate Fc-glycan specific ADC is particularly attractive. The use of the galactosyltransferase (GalT)
mutants capable of accommodating modified UDP-Gal derivatives as the donor substrates has enabled the
incorporation of a selected tag at the Fc glycans for subsequent site-specific conjugation with modified cytotoxic
agents. This technology route has been adopted by several clinical stage companies. However, as the GalT
mutant can only transfer azide or keto based small Gal-GDP derivative, the drug per antibody provided by this
method is just 2. In contrast, another endoglycosidase-based transglycosylation method has overcome such
limitation. This convergent approach consists of two key enzymatic steps: deglycosylation of the antibody by an
endoglycosidase, and subsequent attachment of a tagged N-glycan to the deglycosylated antibody by an
endoglycosidase mutant, which serves as the loading points for the functional molecules. The core enzyme of
this platform, endoglycosidase mutant, can transfer either disaccharide or large glycan substrate with extended
linker. Such flexibility of substrate size combability is unparallel by GalT, or other enzyme-based platform. In this
project, GlycoT will further optimize and streamline this site-specific antibody conjugation technology. We will
expand the glycan functionalization routes that can provide well-defined drug/ligand to antibody ratios. We will
also establish an optimized cleavable peptide that is compatible with different functional molecules. To
accomplish the research goals, we propose to pursue the following four specific aims in the Phase I study. Aim
1 is the functionalization of glycan to obtain broad and defined conjugation loading points. Aim 2 is the
development of novel cleavable peptide linkers for the exatecan payload. Aim 3 is scalable synthesis of ADC
with MMAE or exatecan payload. Aim 4 is the in vivo toxicity and anti-tumor efficacy tests.
