The present disclosure provides antibody drug conjugates comprising STING modulators. Also provided are compositions comprising the antibody drug conjugates. The compounds and compositions are useful for stimulating an immune response in a subject in need thereof.

Claims (49)

1. A compound of the formula:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein:

a is an integer from 1 to 8;

Ab is an anti-CCR2 antibody or an anti-CCR2 antigen-binding fragment;

R 2′ is C 1 -C 4 alkyl;

W is selected from:

 wherein

is the point of attachment to the carbonyl group; and

is the point of attachment to Z;

Z is Ala-Val or Val-Ala;

U is

 wherein

p is an integer from 1 to 6;

q is an integer from 1 to 20;

is the point of attachment to Z;

is the point of attachment to Q;

Q is selected from

 wherein

is the point of attachment to U;

is the point of attachment to Ab;

and

D is

 wherein:

R 1 and R 2 are each independently a hydroxy group or a halogen atom;

B 1 is:

 wherein

R 18 is hydrogen or C 1-6 alkyl;

R 19 is a halogen atom; and

is the point of attachment to D; and

B 2 is:

 wherein

is the point of attachment to D; and

is the point of attachment to the parent molecular moiety; and

Q 2 and Q 4 are each independently an oxygen atom or a sulfur atom.

2. A compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein Q is

3. A compound of claim 2 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein W is

4. A compound of claim 3 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein R 2 is —CH 3 .

5. A compound of claim 4 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein a is an integer from 2 to 6.

6. A compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein D is:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein is the point of attachment to the parent molecular moiety.

7. A compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, of formula (VI):

wherein a is an integer from 1 to 8.

8. A compound of claim 7 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the antibody is monoclonal antibody 1D9 or an antibody which can compete with 1D9 for binding to human CCR2 or a portion of CCR2.

9. A compound of claim 7 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the anti-CCR2 antibody or anti-CCR2 antigen-binding fragment comprises a light chain CDR1 comprising amino acids 24-39 of SEQ ID NO: 1; a light chain CDR2 comprising amino acids 55-61 of SEQ ID NO: 1; a light chain CDR3 comprising amino acids 94-102 of SEQ ID NO: 1; a heavy chain CDR1 comprising amino acids 31-35 of SEQ ID NO:2; a heavy chain CDR2 comprising amino acids 50-68 of SEQ ID NO:2; and a heavy chain CDR3 comprising amino acids 101-106 of SEQ ID NO:2.

10. A compound of claim 7 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the anti-CCR2 antibody, or anti-CCR2 antigen-binding fragment comprises a heavy chain variable region comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2 and a light chain variable region, wherein the light chain variable region comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1.

11. A compound of claim 9 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the anti-CCR2 antibody or anti-CCR2 antigen-binding fragment further comprises a heavy chain constant region selected from human immunoglobulins IgG 1 , IgG 2 , IgG 3 , IgG 4 , IgA 1 , and IgA 2 heavy chain constant regions and a light chain constant region selected from the group consisting of human immunoglobulins IgGκ and IgGλ light chain constant regions.

12. A compound of claim 10 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the anti-CCR2 antibody or anti-CCR2 antigen-binding fragment further comprises a heavy chain constant region selected from human immunoglobulins IgG 1 , IgG 2 , IgG 3 , IgG 4 , IgA 1 , and IgA 2 heavy chain constant regions and a light chain constant region selected from the group consisting of human immunoglobulins IgGκ and IgGλ light chain constant regions.

13. A compound of claim 7 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the anti-CCR2 antibody comprises a heavy chain region of SEQ ID NO: 3 and a light chain region of SEQ ID NO: 4.

14. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers.
