Abstract

Provided herein, inter alia, are isolated antibodies that bind an extracellular domain of a human SIRP-α v1 polypeptide (e.g., the D1 domain), an extracellular domain of a human SIRP-α v2 polypeptide, or both. In some embodiments, the antibodies also bind an extracellular domain of a monkey SIRP-α polypeptide, an extracellular domain of a mouse SIRP-α polypeptide, an extracellular domain of a human SIRP-β polypeptide, and/or an extracellular domain of a human SIRP-γ polypeptide. In some embodiments, the antibodies block or do not binding between an extracellular domain of a human SIRP-α polypeptide and an IgSF domain of a human CD47 polypeptide, while in some embodiments, the antibodies reduce the affinity of a human SIRP-α polypeptide for binding an IgSF domain of a human CD47 polypeptide. Further provided herein are methods, polynucleotides, vectors, and host cells related thereto.

Claims (38)

1. An isolated antibody that binds an extracellular domain of a human SIRP-α v1 or v2 polypeptide, wherein the antibody comprises:

(a) a heavy chain that comprises a heavy chain variable (VH) domain comprising:

(i) an HVR-H1 sequence comprising the amino acid sequence of SNAMS (SEQ ID NO:194),

(ii) an HVR-H2 sequence comprising the amino acid sequence of GISAGGSDTYYPASVKG (SEQ ID NO:195), and

(iii) an HVR-H3 sequence comprising the amino acid sequence of ETWNHLFDY (SEQ ID NO:193); and

(b) a light chain that comprises a light chain variable (VL) domain comprising:

(i) an HVR-L1 sequence comprising the amino acid sequence of SGGSYSSYYYA (SEQ ID NO:170),

(ii) an HVR-L2 sequence comprising the amino acid sequence of SDDKRPS (SEQ ID NO:336), and

(iii) an HVR-L3 sequence comprising the amino acid sequence of GGYDQSSYTNP (SEQ ID NO:172).

2. The antibody of claim 1 , wherein the VH domain comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:263.

3. The antibody of claim 1 , wherein the VL domain comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:252.

4. The antibody of claim 1 , wherein the VH domain comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:263, and wherein the VL domain comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:252.

5. The antibody of claim 1 , wherein the heavy chain further comprises an Fc region.

6. The antibody of claim 5 , wherein the Fc region is a human IgG1 Fc region, a human IgG2 Fc region, or a human IgG4 Fc region.

7. The antibody of claim 6 , wherein the Fc region is a human IgG1 Fc region comprising one or more mutations selected from the group consisting of L234A, L235A, G237A, and N297A, according to EU numbering.

8. The antibody of claim 1 , wherein the light chain further comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:325.

9. The antibody of claim 3 , wherein the light chain further comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:325.

10. The antibody of claim 1 , wherein the light chain further comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:326 or 426.

11. The antibody of claim 3 , wherein the light chain further comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:326 or 426.

12. The antibody of claim 1 , wherein the heavy chain comprises a VH domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:263; wherein the heavy chain further comprises a human IgG1 Fc region comprising one or more mutations selected from the group consisting of L234A, L235A, G237A, and N297A, according to EU numbering; wherein the light chain comprises a VL domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:252; and wherein the light chain further comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:326.

13. The antibody of claim 1 , wherein the heavy chain comprises a VH domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:263; wherein the heavy chain further comprises a human IgG2 Fc region comprising one or more mutations selected from the group consisting of A330S, P331S and N297A, according to EU numbering; wherein the light chain comprises a VL domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:252; and wherein the light chain further comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:326.

14. The antibody of claim 1 , wherein the heavy chain comprises a VH domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:263; wherein the heavy chain further comprises a human IgG4 Fc region comprising one or more mutations selected from the group consisting of S228P, E233P, F234V, L235A, L235E, delG236, and N297A, according to EU numbering; wherein the light chain comprises a VL domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:252; and wherein the light chain further comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:326.

15. The antibody of claim 1 , wherein the antibody is a monoclonal antibody.

16. The antibody of claim 1 , wherein the antibody is conjugated to a cytotoxic agent or label.

17. The antibody of claim 4 , wherein the antibody is conjugated to a cytotoxic agent or label.

18. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the antibody of claim 1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

19. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the antibody of claim 4 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

20. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the antibody of claim 12 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

21. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the antibody of claim 14 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

22. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the antibody of claim 17 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

23. A polynucleotide encoding the antibody of claim 1 .

24. A vector comprising the polynucleotide of claim 23 .

25. A host cell comprising the polynucleotide of claim 23 .

26. A method of producing an antibody, the method comprising culturing the host cell of claim 25 such that the antibody is produced.

27. The method of claim 26 , further comprising recovering the antibody from the host cell.

28. A host cell comprising the vector of claim 24 .

29. A method of producing an antibody, the method comprising culturing the host cell of claim 28 such that the antibody is produced.

30. The method of claim 29 , further comprising recovering the antibody from the host cell.
