AbstractTwo phase 1 studies (TGAA and TGAB) evaluated the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of LY3016859 (LY), a monoclonal antibody that binds epiregulin and transforming growth factor α (TGF‐α), administered intravenously or subcutaneously. In TGAA, 56 healthy subjects received a single dose of LY (0.1–750 mg intravenously, 50 mg subcutaneously) or placebo. In TGAB part A, 15 patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN) received 2 doses of LY (10–750 mg intravenously) or placebo, and in TGAB part B, 45 patients with DN received 5 doses of LY (50–750 mg intravenously) or placebo. Pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, anti‐LY antibodies, and change in proteinuria and albuminuria were evaluated. Single and multiple doses of LY administered 3 weeks apart were well tolerated. Pharmacokinetics were nonlinear in healthy subjects and patients with DN, indicating target‐mediated drug disposition. Epiregulin level increased in both studies, and TGF‐α levels increased in the TGAB study, consistent with target engagement; however, LY treatment did not significantly reduce proteinuria or albuminuria in patients with DN. There was no obvious effect of LY on the disease‐related biomarkers monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1, synaptopodin, or transferrin. Although LY administration resulted in a high frequency of anti‐LY antibodies, pharmacokinetics, target engagement, and efficacy were not impacted.

AbstractRecent studies have implicated a role of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) pathway in kidney disease. Skin toxicity associated with therapeutics which completely block the EGFR pathway precludes their use in chronic dosing. Therefore, we developed antibodies which specifically neutralize the EGFR ligands TGFα (transforming growth factor‐alpha) and epiregulin but not EGF (epidermal growth factor), amphiregulin, betacellulin, HB‐EGF (heparin‐binding epidermal growth factor), or epigen. The epitope of one such neutralizing antibody, LY3016859, was characterized in detail to elucidate the structural basis for ligand specificity. Here we report a crystal structure of the LY3016859 Fab fragment in complex with soluble human TGFα. Our data demonstrate a conformational epitope located primarily within the C‐terminal subdomain of the ligand. In addition, point mutagenesis experiments were used to highlight specific amino acids which are critical for both antigen binding and neutralization, most notably Ala41, Glu44, and His45. These results illustrate the structural basis for the ligand specificity/selectivity of LY3016859 and could also provide insight into further engineering to alter specificity and/or affinity of LY3016859.

Generation and Activity of a Humanized Monoclonal Antibody That Selectively Neutralizes the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Ligands Transforming Growth Factor-α and Epiregulin

Q3 · MEDICINE

Article

Author: Breyer, Matthew D. ; Yang, Derek D. ; Harlan, Shannon M. ; Johnson, Robert L. ; Datta-Mannan, Amita ; Ellis, Bernice ; Petrovan, Ramona J. ; Heuer, Josef G. ; Chu, Shaoyou ; Conner, Elaine M. ; Witcher, Derrick R. ; Beidler, Catherine B. ; Stauber, Anja ; Boyles, Jeffrey S.

At least seven distinct epidermal growth factor (EGF) ligands bind to and activate the EGF receptor (EGFR). This activation plays an important role in the embryo and in the maintenance of adult tissues. Importantly, pharmacologic EGFR inhibition also plays a critical role in the pathophysiology of diverse disease states, especially cancer. The roles of specific EGFR ligands are poorly defined in these disease states. Accumulating evidence suggests a role for transforming growth factor α (TGFα) in skin, lung, and kidney disease. To explore the role of Tgfa, we generated a monoclonal antibody (mAb41) that binds to and neutralizes human Tgfa with high affinity (KD = 36.5 pM). The antibody also binds human epiregulin (Ereg) (KD = 346.6 pM) and inhibits ligand induced myofibroblast cell proliferation (IC50 values of 0.52 and 1.12 nM for human Tgfa and Ereg, respectively). In vivo, a single administration of the antibody to pregnant mice (30 mg/kg s.c. at day 14 after plug) or weekly administration to neonate mice (20 mg/kg s.c. for 4 weeks) phenocopy Tgfa knockout mice with curly whiskers, stunted growth, and expansion of the hypertrophic zone of growth plate cartilage. Humanization of this monoclonal antibody to a human IgG4 antibody (LY3016859) enables clinical development. Importantly, administration of the humanized antibody to cynomolgus monkeys is absent of the skin toxicity observed with current EGFR inhibitors used clinically and no other pathologies were noted, indicating that neutralization of Tgfa could provide a relatively safe profile as it advances in clinical development.
