RESUMEN
PURPOSE: CD19 is a cell surface protein that is found on both healthy and malignant B cells. Accordingly, it has become an important target for novel treatments for non-Hodgkin lymphomas and B-cell leukaemia. Three anti-CD19 monoclonal antibodies with distinct mechanisms of action have been developed for the treatment of B-cell malignancies. METHODS: We reviewed the preclinical and clinical data on the development of the newly approved anti-CD19 monoclonal antibodies blinatumomab, tafasitamab and loncastuximab tesirine, and consider their place in the treatment of relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancies. RESULTS: Blinatumomab is a bispecific T-cell engager that binds to both CD19 on B cells and CD3 on T cells, facilitating antibody-dependent cytotoxicity. Blinatumomab significantly prolongs overall survival in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, although cytokine release syndrome and severe neurotoxicity may necessitate discontinuation. Tafasitamab, which has modified anti-CD19 Fab and Fc regions, has significantly enhanced affinity for both CD19 and effector cell receptors compared with unmodified anti-CD19. In L-MIND, tafasitamab plus lenalidomide provided an overall response rate (ORR) of 57.5% in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in patients non-transplant eligible. Loncastuximab tesirine is an antibody-drug conjugate that has been studied as monotherapy and in combination with ibrutinib in 3L + relapsed or refractory DLBCL. The ORR was 48.3% in a phase II trial of loncastuximab tesirine. The optimal place of anti-CD19 monoclonal antibodies in therapy has yet to be determined, but the prospect of improved outcomes for at least some patients with treatment-resistant B-cell malignancies appears likely, particularly in those with limited therapeutic options and poor prognosis.

Human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF, this study used Fc-fused recombinant G-CSF; GX-G3) is an important glycoprotein that stimulates the proliferation of granulocytes and white blood cells. Thus, G-CSF treatment has been considered as a crucial regimen to accelerate recovery from chemotherapy-induced neutropenia in cancer patients suffering from non-myeloid malignancy or acute myeloid leukemia. Despite the therapeutic advantages of G-CSF treatment, an assessment of its immunogenicity must be performed to determine whether the production of anti-G-CSF antibodies causes immune-related disorders. We optimized and validated analytical tools by adopting validation parameters for immunogenicity assessment. Using these validated tools, we analyzed serum samples from rats and monkeys injected subcutaneously with GX-G3 (1, 3 or 10 mg/kg once a week for 4 weeks followed by a 4-week recovery period) to determine immunogenicity response and toxicokinetic parameters with serum concentration of GX-G3. Several rats and monkeys were determined to be positive for anti-GX-G3 antibodies. Moreover, the immunogenicity response of GX-G3 was lower in monkeys than in rats, which was relevant to show less inhibition of toxicokinetic profiles in monkeys, at least 1 mg/kg administrated group, compared to rats. These results suggested the establishment and validation for analyzing anti-GX-G3 antibodies and measurement of serum levels of GX-G3 and anti-GX-G3 antibodies, which was related with toxicokinetic profiles. Taken together, this study provides immunogenicity assessment which is closely implicated with toxicokinetic study of GX-G3 in 4-week repeated administrated toxicological studies.

The purpose of this study is to optimize ELISA conditions to quantify the colorectal cancer antigen GA733 linked to the Fc antibody fragment fused to KDEL, an ER retention motif (GA733-FcK) expressed in transgenic plant. Variable conditions of capture antibody, blocking buffer, and detection antibody for ELISA were optimized with application of leaf extracts from transgenic plant expressing GA733-FcK. In detection antibody, anti-EpCAM/CD362 IgG recognizing the GA733 did not detect any GA733-FcK whereas anti-human Fc IgG recognizing the human Fc existed in plant leaf extracts. For blocking buffer conditions, 3% BSA buffer clearly blocked the plate, compared to the 5% skim-milk buffer. For capture antibody, monoclonal antibody (MAb) CO17-1A was applied to coat the plate with different amounts (1, 0.5, and 0.25 µg/well). Among the amounts of the capture antibody, 1 and 0.5 µg/well (capture antibody) showed similar absorbance, whereas 0.25 µg/well of the capture antibody showed significantly less absorbance. Taken together, the optimized conditions to quantify plant-derived GA733-FcK were 0.5 µg/well of MAb CO17-1A per well for the capture antibody, 3% BSA for blocking buffer, and anti-human Fc conjugated HRP. To confirm the optimized ELISA conditions, correlation analysis was conducted between the quantified amount of GA733-FcK in ELISA and its protein density values of different leaf samples in Western blot. The co-efficient value R(2) between the ELISA quantified value and protein density was 0.85 (p<0.01), which indicates that the optimized ELISA conditions feasibly provides quantitative information of GA733-FcK expression in transgenic plant.

Chemokines facilitate the recruitment of inflammatory cells into tissues, contributing to target organ injury in a wide range of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Targeting either single chemokines or chemokine receptors alters the progression of disease in animal models of rheumatoid arthritis and lupus with varying degrees of efficacy but clinical trials in humans have been less successful. Given the redundancy of chemokine-chemokine receptor interactions, targeting of more than one chemokine may be required to inhibit active inflammatory disease. To test the effects of multiple-chemokine blockade in inflammation, we generated an adenovirus expressing bovine herpesvirus 1 glycoprotein G (BHV1gG), a viral chemokine antagonist that binds to a wide spectrum of murine and human chemokines, fused to the Fc portion of murine IgG2a. Administration of the adenovirus significantly inhibited thioglycollate-induced migration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes into the peritoneal cavity of BALB/c mice and reduced both clinical severity and articular damage in K/BxN serum transfer-induced arthritis. However, treatment with BHV1gG-Ig fusion protein did not prevent monocyte infiltration into the peritoneum in the thioglycollate model and did not prevent renal monocyte infiltration or nephritis in lupus-prone NZB/W mice. These observations suggest that the simultaneous inhibition of multiple chemokines by BHV1gG has the potential to interfere with acute inflammatory responses mediated by polymorphonuclear leukocytes, but is less effective in chronic inflammatory disease mediated by macrophages.

The current DNA vaccine formulations are not optimal for stimulation of CD8(+) T cells, which are required for clearing virally-infected cells. Here we show that CD8(+) T cell-stimulating activity can be effectively augmented by combining DNA vaccination with protein transfer. C57BL/6 mice were injected intramuscularly with an anti-SARS-CoV DNA vaccine admixed with a lipid-derived conjugate of 4-1BBL, a potential CD8(+) T-cell co-stimulator. The inclusion of the lipidated co-stimulator greatly enhanced cellular immune responses, especially the CTL response, induced by the DNA vaccine. The adjuvant effect of 4-1BBL was lipidation-dependent, indicating that it functions as a cell membrane-anchored co-stimulator. Results of our study suggest, for the first time, that muscle cells may be modified in situ, at the DNA injection site, into APC-like cells to allow direct priming of CD8(+) T cells and thereby improve the efficacy of DNA vaccines.

Parasite drug resistance and difficulties in developing effective vaccines have precipitated the search for alternative therapies for malaria. The success of passive immunization suggests that immunoglobulin (Ig)-based therapies are effective. To further explore the mechanism(s) by which antibody mediates its protective effect, we generated human chimeric IgG1 and IgA1 and a single-chain diabody specific for the C-terminal 19-kDa region of Plasmodium yoelii merozoite surface protein 1 (MSP119), a major target of protective immune responses. These novel human reagents triggered in vitro phagocytosis of merozoites but, unlike their parental mouse IgG2b, failed to protect against parasite challenge in vivo. Therefore, the Fc region appears critical for mediating protection in vivo, at least for this MSP119 epitope. Such antibodies may serve as prototype therapeutic agents, and as useful tools in the development of in vitro neutralization assays with Plasmodium parasites.

The effects of the complexes of inosine (Ino) analogues of isoprinosine on the immune response to sheep red blood cells (SRBC), in plaque-forming cells assay (PFC), in mice spleen, and on the Fc-dependent SRBC phagocytosis in mice peritoneal macrophages were investigated. Molar ratios of 1:3 of the complexes of inosine with N,N-dimethylaminopropanol-2-p-acetaminobenzoate (isoprinosine), and 8-thioinosine with N,N-dimethylaminopropanol-2-p-acetaminobenzoate (OSI-177), inosine with L-arginine butyrate (OSI-2655), and 8-thioinosine with L-arginine butyrate (OSI-3648) were administered. The administered doses were 0.5, 5 and 50 mg/kg body weight. The compound OSI-2655 exceeded isoprinosine in PFC stimulation and phagocytosis activation. The compound OSI-3648 exceeded isoprinosine only in PFC stimulation in the case of immunization with a suboptimal SRBC dose. OSI-3648 stimulated the immune response in PRC better than isoprinosine, OSI-177, or OSI-2655, and maintained the ability to stimulate capture, but lost the ability to stimulate destruction processes of captured SRBC. L-Arginine butyrate in the doses equivalent to its content in the complexes did not affect the number of PFC. L-Arginine butyrate was able to stimulate the processes of destruction but its stimulation degree was inferior to the compound OSI-2655.

NZB is a mouse strain that spontaneously develops autoimmune haemolytic anaemia at 10-12 months of age. We analysed the autoantibodies present throughout their life and compared them to natural autoantibodies found in the normal mouse. Sera and Coombs' antibodies eluted from red blood cells (RBC) were tested for their activities against RBC and a panel of antigens: actin, myoglobin, myosin, tubulin, spectrin, DNA and trinitrophenyl bovine serum albumin (TNP-BSA), F(ab')2 and Fc fragments of IgG by using enzyme immunoassays (EIA) and Western blotting analysis of RBC membrane extracts. In NZB mouse sera, activities of IgM and IgG against the whole panel, compared to those of sera from age-matched BALB/c mice, increased progressively throughout life with oscillating values in parallel with the anti-RBC activity. Two periods of autoantibody production seem to exist: the first is characterized by a fluctuating high level of IgM and stable level of IgG natural autoantibodies, and the second by a rise of IgG natural autoantibodies in parallel with IgG anti-RBC antibodies. The presence of idiotype D23 (IdD23), which is characteristic of natural polyspecific autoantibodies, was high on serum IgM and low on IgG autoantibodies throughout life. To further analyse autoantibody level oscillations, we tested IgM and IgG fractions after their separation from whole serum and observed highly enhanced autoantibody activities of both IgM and IgG. These autoreactivities markedly diminished when the separated IgM and IgG fractions were recombined, suggesting humoral control of the autoreactivity as we had already noted for IgG in normal animals. During the first period of autoantibody production, IgM and IgG antibodies eluted from RBC (Combs' antibodies) and those eluted from serum using an RBC-immunoadsorbent (circulating antibodies) reacted with all RBC membrane components, with all antigens of the panel and with F(ab')2 and Fc. Some of these reactivities were comparable to those exhibited by a monoclonal antibody recognizing bromelain-treated RBC. In the second period, both IgM and IgG Coombs' antibodies reacted more strongly with spectrin, and exhibited new specificities, for example against the band 3 polypeptide. IdD23 was abundant on Combs' IgG antibodies in the second period. Taken together, these data suggest that IgM and IgG natural autoantibodies, able to recognize not only RBC antigens but also other antigens, particularly F(ab')2 and Fc fragment of IgG, predominate in Coomb's antibody population.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

We studied the effect of three Japanese kampo medicines on platelet activation by an anti-CD9 monoclonal antibody (NNKY1-19) and an anti-human Fc gamma receptor II monoclonal antibody (NNKY3-2). Sho-saiko-to (TJ-9) and Sairei-to (TJ-114) partially suppressed platelet aggregation induced by NNKY1-19, while Juzen-taiho-to (TJ-48) suppressed aggregation induced by NNKY3-2. TJ-9 and TJ-114 also suppressed collagen-induced aggregation, but TJ-48 did not. Flow cytometry showed that the three medicines did not affect antibody binding to the platelets. Thus, all three kampo medicines suppressed platelet activation by anti-platelet glycoprotein antibodies without inhibiting antibody binding.
