Definitions
- Respiratory syncytial virus is the major cause of acute respiratory illness in young children admitted to hospitals, and the community practice will treat perhaps five times the number of hospitalized children. It is therefore, the most common cause of lower respiratory tract infection in young children. While the majority of community-acquired infections resolve themselves in a week to ten days, many hospitalized children, especially under six months of age require assisted ventilation.
- ribavirin has been licensed for therapy of RSV pneumonia and bronchiolitis (2,3); its value is contraversial (4).
- ribavirin has shown efficacy (9), the drug has to be administered over an 18 hour period by aerosol inhalation.
- the level of secondary infections following cessation of treatment is significantly higher than in untreated patients.
- RSV immunoglobulin was effective both in prophylaxis and therapy for RSV infections in animal models (6, 7). Infected animals treated with RSV immune globulin, showed no evidence of pulmonary immune-complex disease (6, 7).
- RSV hyperimmune globulin Even if RSV hyperimmune globulin is shown to reduce the incidence and severity of RSV lower respiratory tract infection in high risk children, several disadvantages may limit its use.
- One drawback is the necessity for intravenous infusion in these children who have limited venous access because of prior intensive therapy.
- a second disadvantage is the large volume of RSVIG required for protection, particularly since most these children have compromised cardiopulmonary function.
- a third disadvantage is that intravenous infusion necessitates monthly hospital visits during the RSV season which places these children at risk of nosocomial RSV infection (1).
- a final problem is that it may prove to be very difficult to select sufficient donors to produce a hyperimmune globulin for RSV to meet the demand for this product.
- Currently only about 8% of normal donors have RSV neutralizing antibody titers high enough to qualify for the production of hyperimmune globulin.
- Another approach may be the development of monoclonal antibodies with high specific neutralizing activity as an alternative to hyperimmune globulin. It is preferable, if not necessary, to use human monoclonal antibodies rather than murine or rat antibodies to minimize the development of human anti-rodent antibody responses which may compromise the therapeutic efficacy of the antibody or induce immune-complex pathology. However, the generation of human monoclonal antibodies with the desired specificity may be difficult and the level of production from human cell lines is often low, precluding their development.

- the human antibodies of the present invention can for example be attached or bound to a solid support, ⁇ uch a ⁇ latex beads, a column, etc., which are then contacted with a sample believed to contain RSV F antigen.
- One such antibody was selected, which is specific for antigenic site C, to produce mouse-human chimeric antibodie ⁇ .
- This antibody was chosen on -the basis that it: (i) reacted with a large number of virus strains tested (at least 13 out of 14 isolated); (ii) retained neutralizing activity again ⁇ t virus escape mutants selected with other anti-F antibodies and (iii) blocked RSV replication when administered at low doses to cotton rats by intranasal route prior to virus challenge.
- the antibody showed significant reduction in pulmonary virus titer among antibodies in that respective region.
- Murine antibody 1308F specific for the C region of RSV F protein, wa ⁇ chosen as the initial target for humanization.
- the human antibodies were constructed as follows: the RNA wa ⁇ extracted from the murine antibody-producing cell line, the murine variable region ⁇ which are responsible for the binding of the antibody to RSV were cloned and sequenced, resulting in the identification of the murine antibody CDRs. Then a human variable heavy and light chain framework sequence having the highest homology with the variable heavy and light chain murine antibody, was selected. A human framework sequence such as described above is best able to accept the murine-derived CDRs. The murine 1308F variable heavy chain was compared to various human germline genes, the highest homology was to the human germline gene HV3. The two sequences were 62% homologous overall and 65% in the framework regions.
- V- region A similar analysis of the V- region revealed high homology to the human germ line V-Kappa gene K 102. The alignment of these sequences is shown in Figure 2. In this case the homology is 62% overall and 73% in the framework regions. The murine-derived variable light CDRs were then sub ⁇ tituted into the human variable light chain of human germline gene K102.In each case a human J-region can be selected which is identical to the mouse sequence.
- human antibodies are expressed and characterized relative to the parental murine antibodies to be certain that the genetic manipulation has not drastically altered the binding properties of the antibodies.
- Examples 1 cDNA cloning and sequencing of anti-RSV F Protein antibody 1308F cDNA copies of the V render and V- of the target antibody were generated as follows.
- the first strand CDNA reaction was carried out using AMV reverse trenscriptase and a phosphorylated oligonucleotide primer complementary to a ⁇ egment of the mRNA coding for the constant region of the particular heavy or light chain isotype.
- the i ⁇ otype i ⁇ gammal, kappa and the specific oligonucleotides were 5'AGCGGATCCAGGGGCCAGTGGATAGAC complementary to codons 129-137 of the CHI region of the murine Gammal gene, and 5'TGGATGGTGGGAAGATG complementary to codons 116-122 of the murine C-kappa gene.
- the primer anneals to a segment of the mRNA adjacent to the variable region.
- Second strand cDNA synthesis was carried out using RNase H and E. coli DNA polymera ⁇ e I, as described by Gubler and Hoffman (Gene 25, ;263, 1983), followed by T4 DNA polymerase to assure that blunt ends are produced.
- Oligonucleotide probes corresponding to C-region sequence lying between the first strand cDNA primer and the V-regi'on were used in colony hybridizations to identify transformant ⁇ carrying the desired cDNA segment.
- the specific probe sequences were GGCCAGTGGATAGAC complementary to codons 121-125 of murine CHI regions and TACAGTTGGTGCAGCA complementary to codons 110-115 of c-Kappa, respectively.
- Candidate plasmids isolated from colonies which were positive in the hybridization, were analyzed by digestion with restriction endonucleases Eco RI and Hind III to release the cDNA insert. Those with inserts of 400-500bp were subjected to DNA sequencing.
- the cDNA inserts were inserted into M13 mpl8 and mpl9 for the determination of the DNA sequence on both strands.
- the CDR regions of the V render and V. were identified by comparing the amino acid sequence to known sequences as described by Kabat (38). In order to select the human framework sequences best able to accept the mouse derived CDR sequences in a conformation which retains the structure of the antigen combining site, the following strategy was employed. First, the sequence of the murine V render and V-. regions will be compared to known human sequences from both the Genbank and NBRF protein databanks using the Wordsearch program in the Wisconsin package of sequence manipulation programs (Nucleic Acid Res. 12;387) . The best several human V-regions were then analyzed further on the basis of similarity in the framework regions, especially at the junctions of the framework and CDR regions (see Figures 1 and 2) .
- the oligonucleotides were first allowed to anneal in pairwise combinations and extended with DNA polymerase to generate approximately 200bp ds DNA fragments with an overlapping region, the fragments were then mixed and subjected to PCR using primers at the 3'end of one fragment and the 5' end of the other fragment.
- the only product which can be formed under these condition is the full length V H segment.
- the specific primer sequences are underlined in Figure 3.
- An endonuclease Sac I site was included at the 3' end of the V R sequence in order to join it to a human constant region gene segment.
- the CDR-grafted V- region was synthesized in a similar way (see Figure 4).
- the initial 200bp fragments were amplified separately and inserted into separate plasmeds.
- the fragment coding for the amino terminus was cloned into a pUCl ⁇ derivative as an Ncol-Smal fragment while the fragment coding for the carboxyl-terminus was cloned as a Smal to Hind III fragment.
- the fragments were subsequently combined via a Smal site at the junction.
- the oligonucleotides are indicated in Figure 4.
- a Hind III site was included near the 3' end of the gene segment in order to join it to a human C-kappa gene.
- the NcoI-SacI fragment representing the humanized V thread was joined to a SacI -Notl fragment, representing a human c-Gamma I CDNA and inserted into pS 18 (which is pUC 1 8 with Ncol and Notl restriction sites incorporated into the polylinker region between the BamHI and Kpnl sites).
- the humanized 1308F-gammal gene on a SacI-Notl fragment was then combined with a Pvul-NotI fragment from pSJ37 carrying a poly A addition site and a PvuI-SacI fragment from pSV2-dhfr-pCMV containing the SV40 origin of replication, a dhfr gene and the CMV immediate early promoter.
- the resulting plasmid was designated pSJ60.
- the Ncol-Hindlll fragment representing the humanized V r was joined to a HindiII-Notl fragment representing a human c-Kappa CDNA in pS18.
- the humanized 1308F-Kappa gene on a SalI-Notl fragment was then combined with a Pvul-NotI fragment from pSJ37 carrying a poly A addition site and a Pvul-Sall fragment from pSV2-dhfr-pCMV, containing the SV40 origin of replication, a dhfr gene and the CMV immediate early promoter.
- the resulting plasmid was designated pSJ61.
- pSJ60 and pSJ61 were combined into a ⁇ ingle pla ⁇ mid containing both the light and heavy chains and expres ⁇ ion ⁇ ignals. This wa ⁇ accomplished by isolating a Pvul-Bam HI fragment from pSJ ⁇ l carrying the light chain with a Pvu I - Bgl II fragment from pSJ60 carrying the heavy chain to generate pSJ66. (See Figure 5).
