Abstract

The invention provides anti-cluster of differentiation 3 (CD3) antibodies and methods of using the same.

Claims (43)

1. A bispecific antibody that binds to HER2 and CD3, wherein the bispecific antibody comprises:

(a) an anti-HER2 arm comprising a first binding domain, the first binding domain comprising:

a hypervariable region (HVR)-H1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 169,

an HVR-H2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 170,

an HVR-H3 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 171,

an HVR-L1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 172,

an HVR-L2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 173, and

an HVR-L3 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 174; and

(b) an anti-CD3 arm comprising a second binding domain, the second binding domain comprising:

an HVR-H1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1,

an HVR-H2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2,

an HVR-H3 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3,

an HVR-L1 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 4,

an HVR-L2 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 5, and

an HVR-L3 comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 6.

2. The bispecific antibody of claim 1 , wherein the first binding domain comprises:

(a) a heavy chain variable (VH) domain comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 95% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 270; (b) a light chain variable (VL) domain comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 95% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 271; or (c) a VH domain as in (a) and a VL domain as in (b),

and the second binding domain comprises:

(a) a VH domain comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 95% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 184; (b) a VL domain comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 95% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 185; or (c) a VH domain as in (a) and a VL domain as in (b).

3. The bispecific antibody of claim 1 , wherein the first binding domain binds to a human CD3ε polypeptide or a cynomolgus monkey (cyno) CD3ε polypeptide.

4. The bispecific antibody of claim 1 , wherein the bispecific antibody comprises a substitution mutation in the Fc region that reduces effector function.

5. The bispecific antibody of claim 1 , wherein the bispecific antibody comprises one or more substitution mutations substitution mutation is at amino acid residue N297, L234, L235, and/or D265 (EU numbering).

6. The bispecific antibody of claim 5 , wherein the one or more substitution mutations comprises N297G, N297A, L234A, L235A, and/or D265A.

7. The bispecific antibody of claim 4 , wherein the substitution mutation is an aglycosylation site mutation.

8. The bispecific antibody of claim 7 , wherein the aglycosylation site mutation is at amino acid residue N297 (EU numbering).

9. The bispecific antibody of claim 8 , wherein the aglycosylation site mutation is N297G or N297A.

10. The bispecific antibody of claim 1 , wherein the bispecific antibody comprises a first CH1 (CH1 1 ) domain, a first CH2 (CH2 1 ) domain, a first CH3 (CH3 1 ) domain, a second CH1 (CH1 2 ) domain, a second CH2 (CH2 2 ) domain, and a second CH3 (CH3 2 ) domain, wherein

the CH3 1 domain is paired with the CH3 2 domain, wherein the CH3 1 and CH3 2 domains each comprise a knob or hole, and wherein the knob or hole in the CH3 1 domain is positionable in the hole or knob, respectively, in the CH3 2 domain.

11. The bispecific antibody of claim 1 , wherein the bispecific antibody is monoclonal, humanized, or chimeric.

12. The bispecific antibody of claim 1 , wherein the bispecific antibody is an antibody fragment that binds HER2 and CD3.

13. The bispecific antibody of claim 1 , wherein the bispecific antibody is a full-length antibody.

14. A composition comprising the bispecific antibody of claim 1 .

15. A kit comprising:

(a) the composition of claim 14 ; and

(b) a package insert comprising instructions for administering the composition to a subject to treat or delay progression of a cell proliferative disorder.

16. A bispecific antibody that binds to HER2 and CD3, wherein the bispecific antibody comprises an anti-HER2 arm comprising a first binding domain comprising (a) a VH domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 270 and (b) a VL domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 271, and an anti-CD3 arm comprising a second binding domain comprising (a) a VH domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 184 and (b) a VL domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 185.

17. A bispecific antibody that binds to HER2 and CD3, wherein the bispecific antibody comprises an anti-HER2 arm comprising a first binding domain comprising (a) a VH domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 270 and (b) a VL domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 271, and an anti-CD3 arm comprising a second binding domain comprising (a) a VH domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 184 and (b) a VL domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 185, wherein the bispecific antibody comprises the substitution mutation N297G; and wherein:
