中文摘要

靶向B细胞限制性抗原CD19、CD20或CD22的嵌合抗原受体(CAR)T细胞疗法可使部分B细胞恶性肿瘤患者获得强效临床应答,但复发仍很常见。骆驼科单域抗体(sdAb,又称纳米抗体)比多数CAR使用的单链可变片段(scFv)更小、更简单且更易重组,但已报道的sdAb-CAR较少。因此,我们旨在识别一种具有治疗活性、靶向人CD22的sdAb-CAR。用CD22蛋白免疫成年美洲驼,构建sdAb-cDNA文库并进行噬菌体淘选,获得20余种表位和结合特性各异的sdAb。在Jurkat细胞中表达CD22-sdAb-CAR后,观察到不同程度的CD22特异性反应性,但其与抗体亲和力无相关性。将CD28跨膜结构改为CD8设计,可提高体外CAR持久性和表达。不同候选CD22-sdAb-CAR体外诱导的CD22依赖性CAR-T扩增相似,但只有靶向膜近端表位的CD22-sdAb-CAR能激活直接细胞毒性杀伤,并在淋巴瘤异种移植模型中延长生存。基于盲法异种移植研究中改善的生存结局,研究选定一种领先的CD22sdCAR-T;在高剂量实验中,其完全应答率与基准短连接肽m971-scFv CAR-T相当。最后,免疫组化和流式细胞术证实该候选CD22-sdAb具有组织和细胞层面的特异性。本文完整报告了一种新型CD22sdCAR疗法的临床前开发。

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapies targeting B cell-restricted antigens CD19, CD20, or CD22 can produce potent clinical responses for some B cell malignancies, but relapse remains common. Camelid single-domain antibodies (sdAbs or nanobodies) are smaller, simpler, and easier to recombine than single-chain variable fragments (scFvs) used in most CARs, but fewer sdAb-CARs have been reported. Thus, we sought to identify a therapeutically active sdAb-CAR targeting human CD22. Immunization of an adult Llama glama with CD22 protein, sdAb-cDNA library construction, and phage panning yielded >20 sdAbs with diverse epitope and binding properties. Expressing CD22-sdAb-CAR in Jurkat cells drove varying CD22-specific reactivity not correlated with antibody affinity. Changing CD28- to CD8-transmembrane design increased CAR persistence and expression in vitro . CD22-sdAb-CAR candidates showed similar CD22-dependent CAR-T expansion in vitro, although only membrane-proximal epitope targeting CD22-sdAb-CARs activated direct cytolytic killing and extended survival in a lymphoma xenograft model. Based on enhanced survival in blinded xenograft studies, a lead CD22sdCAR-T was selected, achieving comparable complete responses to a benchmark short linker m971-scFv CAR-T in high-dose experiments. Finally, immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry confirm tissue and cellular-level specificity of the lead CD22-sdAb. This presents a complete report on preclinical development of a novel CD22sdCAR therapeutic.
