Abstract

An affinity chromatography resin comprising an anti-tissue factor antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof attached to a base resin, and methods of using the same.

Claims (70)

1. A method of purifying a multi-chain chimeric polypeptide, the method comprising:

loading an affinity chromatography resin with a liquid comprising the multi-chain chimeric polypeptide;

washing the affinity chromatography resin using one or more wash buffer(s); and

eluting the multi-chain chimeric polypeptide using an elution buffer, wherein:

the affinity chromatography resin comprises an anti-tissue factor antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof comprising a heavy chain variable domain comprising a CDR1 of SEQ ID NO: 1, a CDR2 of SEQ ID NO: 2 or 9, and a CDR3 of SEQ ID NO: 3, and a light chain variable domain comprising a CDR1 of SEQ ID NO: 4, a CDR2 of SEQ ID NO: 5, and a CDR3 of SEQ ID NO: 6, attached to a base resin;

the multi-chain chimeric polypeptide comprises:

(a) a first chimeric polypeptide comprising:

(i) a first target-binding domain comprising a sequence that is at least 80% identical to amino acids 19 to 305 of SEQ ID NO: 70;

(ii) a soluble tissue factor domain comprising a sequence that is at least 80% identical to SEQ ID NO: 10; and

(iii) a first domain of a pair of affinity domains comprising a sequence that is at least 80% identical to SEQ ID NO: 125; and

(b) a second chimeric polypeptide comprising:

(i) a second domain of a pair of affinity domains comprising a sequence that is at least 80% identical to SEQ ID NO: 123; and

(ii) a second target-binding domain comprising a sequence that is at least 80% identical to amino acids 19 to 305 of SEQ ID NO: 70;

the first chimeric polypeptide and the second chimeric polypeptide associate through the binding of the first domain and the second domain of the pair of affinity domains; and

the multi-chain chimeric polypeptide does not stimulate blood coagulation in a mammal.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the liquid comprising the multi-chain chimeric polypeptide is a clarified liquid culture medium.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the liquid comprising the multi-chain chimeric polypeptide comprises a cell lysate.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more wash buffer(s) are:

(i) a first wash buffer comprising phosphate buffered saline; and

(ii) a second wash buffer comprising 0.01 M to 0.2 M citrate and having a pH of 4.5 to 5.5.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein:

(i) the first wash buffer is phosphate buffered saline; and

(ii) the second wash buffer is 0.1 M citrate, pH 5.0.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the elution buffer comprises 0.01 M to 0.2 M acetate and has a pH of 2.5 to 3.5.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the elution buffer comprises 0.1 M acetate and has a pH of 2.9.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:

performing one or more additional unit operations on an eluate obtained from the step of eluting the multi-chain chimeric polypeptide.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the one or more additional unit operations comprises, in sequential order:

performing low pH viral inactivation;

performing depth filtration;

performing polishing chromatography;

performing nanofiltration; and

performing ultrafiltration and diafiltration (UF/DF).

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the heavy chain variable domain comprises a sequence that is at least 90% identical to SEQ ID NO: 7, and the light chain variable domain comprises a sequence that is at least 90% identical to SEQ ID NO: 8.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the heavy chain variable domain comprises SEQ ID NO: 7, and the light chain variable domain comprises SEQ ID NO: 8.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the base resin is sepharose.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the base resin is any support material.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the support material is agarose or a capto resin.

15. The method of claim 1 , wherein the anti-tissue factor antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof is non-covalently attached to the base resin.

16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the anti-tissue factor antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof is covalently attached to the base resin.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the anti-tissue factor antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof is covalently attached to the base resin through the formation of a disulfide bond between a cysteine in the anti-tissue factor antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof and a chemical group on the base resin.

18. The method of claim 16 , wherein the anti-tissue factor antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof is covalently attached to the base resin through the formation of a covalent bond between a free amine of the anti-tissue factor antibody or antigen-binding domain and a chemical group on the base resin.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein the base resin is CNBr-activated or N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS)-activated solid support material.

20. The method of claim 18 , wherein the covalent bond is represented by Formula I below:

wherein R represents the anti-tissue factor antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof.

21. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first target-binding domain and the soluble tissue factor domain directly abut each other in the first chimeric polypeptide.

22. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first chimeric polypeptide further comprises a linker sequence between the first target-binding domain and the soluble tissue factor domain in the first chimeric polypeptide.

23. The method of claim 1 , wherein the soluble tissue factor domain and the first domain of the pair of affinity domains directly abut each other in the first chimeric polypeptide.

24. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first chimeric polypeptide further comprises a linker sequence between the soluble tissue factor domain and the first domain of the pair of affinity domains in the first chimeric polypeptide.

25. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second domain of the pair of affinity domains and the second target-binding domain directly abut each other in the second chimeric polypeptide.

26. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second chimeric polypeptide further comprises a linker sequence between the second domain of the pair of affinity domains and the second target-binding domain in the second chimeric polypeptide.

27. The method of claim 1 , wherein the soluble tissue factor domain is a soluble human tissue factor domain.

28. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the first target-binding domain comprises a sequence that is at least 90% identical to amino acids 19 to 305 of SEQ ID NO: 70;

the soluble tissue factor domain comprises a sequence that is at least 90% identical to SEQ ID NO: 10;
