Antibodies that bind cell-associated CA 125/O772P and methods of use thereof
View Patent ↗The present invention provides antibodies, and antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, fusion polypeptides and analogs that preferentially bind cell-associated CA 125/O772P polypeptides relative to shed CA 125/O772P polypeptides. The present invention further provides methods of preventing, managing, treating or ameliorating one or more symptoms associated with a CA 125/O772P-related disorder. In particular, the present invention provides methods of preventing, managing, treating, or ameliorating one or more symptoms associated with a cell proliferative disorder, such as cancer, e.g., ovarian cancer. The present invention still further provides methods for diagnosing a CA 125/O772P-related disorder or predisposition to developing such a disorder, as well as methods for identifying antibodies, and antigen-binding fragments of antibodies, that preferentially bind cell-associated CA 125/O772P polypeptides relative to shed CA 125/O772P polypeptides.
1. A method for treating CA 125/O772P-positive cancer in a subject, comprising: administering to the subject a monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment of an antibody in an amount sufficient to treat the cancer, wherein said antibody or antigen-binding antibody fragment binds an epitope in residues 14-452 of SEQ ID NO: 1 and preferentially binds cell-associated CA 125/O772P relative to shed CA 125/O772P, and wherein cells of said cancer are CA 125/O772P-positive, and wherein said antibody or antigen-binding fragment is conjugated to a cytotoxic agent.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is cervical or uterine cancer.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is breast or lung cancer.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cancer is ovarian cancer.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody or antigen-binding antibody fragment is a monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding monoclonal antibody fragment.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody or antigen-binding antibody fragment is administered at a dose from about 5 μg/kg to about 10 mg/kg.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method is practiced as part of a combination cancer therapy.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the combination cancer therapy further comprises administration of a chemotherapeutic agent to the subject.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the chemotherapeutic agent is a taxane or cisplatin.
10. The method of claim 7 , wherein the combination cancer therapy comprises radiation therapy.
11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody is selected from the group consisting of 325.1, 621.1, 633.1, 654.1, 725.1, 8G9, 7F10, 8A1, 8C3, 15C9, 8E3, 8B5, 7G10, 16C7, 7C6, 7H1, 16H9, 7A11, and 4E7.
12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cytotoxic agent is a radioisotope.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the radioisotope is selected from the group consisting of 125 I, 131 I, 111 In, 99 mTc and 90 Y.
14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody is selected from the group consisting of 117.1, 368.1, 501.1, and 776.1.
15. The method of claim 1 , wherein the antibody is 446.1.
