July 14, 2021; Published, July 21, 2021 ABSTRACT-- Since the first production of monoclonal antibodies about 35 years ago, researchers have found them useful in the treatment and diagnosis of various diseases such as cancer. By developing different types of monoclonal antibodies such as humanized, drug conjugated, or bispecific ones, researchers, have achieved remarkable success in treating several complicated and challenging diseases, targeting specific antigens or receptors makes monoclonal antibodies the right choice to inhibit signaling pathways like programmed death- ligand 1 (PD-L1) or programmed death1 (PD-1) and changing cell behavior. As one of the most common types of malignancies among women, breast cancer is one of the most critical conditions which different types of monoclonal antibodies were designed and produced to treat. Therefore, we reviewed these antibodies in breast cancer, their targets, and their efficacy and toxicity, with more focus on recent PD-L1or PD-1 inhibitor antibodies in breast cancer and beyond. INTRODUCTION improving the patient's survival, and decreasing the tumor relapse (5,6). By targeting a particular marker, According to the American Cancer Society, breast monoclonal antibodies are considered one of the cancer is among the four most frequent cancers; the most practical and promising approaches (7). For four being those of lung, colorectal, breast, and example, based on the reports in early-stage HER2+ prostate (1). It is estimated that 276,480 new cases breast cancer, the patients are treated with will be diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020 in the trastuzumab plus chemotherapy, the risk of disease United States of America (2). The global incidence recurrence and death decreased about 52% and 33%, of breast cancer is approximately 2.3 million cases in respectively, compared to the patients with 2020, and breast cancer as the most frequent administration of chemotherapy alone (8). malignancy among women surpassed lung cancer In general, monoclonal antibodies are (3). According to the International Agency for biomolecules which are capable of targeting a Research on Cancer (IARC), the rate of women's particular antigen. The first product of this class death due to breast cancer was 684,996 cases approved by the United States Food and Drug worldwide in 2020. As a leading cause of female Administration (FDA) in the late 1980s, was OKT3, cancer death, breast cancer accounted for about a murine anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody which was 15.5% of total cancer-related deaths in women (3). indicated for the treatment of organ transplant Although these figures indicate the severity of breast rejection (9). Along with developing cancer risk among women, its lethal rate has biotechnological techniques, the structure of decreased by 1.8% per year from 2007 to 2016 due monoclonal antibodies was evolved from murine, to the improvements in early detection and treatment chimeric, and humanized antibodies to fully human stages. Accordingly, the main treatment patterns are antibodies through recombinant DNA, transgenic, surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormone and phage display technologies (10). In this manner, therapy, and targeted therapy (4). Targeted therapy is the issues such as the incomplete binding of human one of the approaches which usually help treatments Fc receptors and Fc region of murine by increasing the specificity of cancer therapy, immunoglobulins, development of human anti- 263 J Pharm Pharm Sci (www.cspsCanada.org) 24, 363 -380, 2021 mouse antibodies, and clearance of murine receptors) (16). Targeted breast cancer therapy can antibodies could be resolved (11,12). Different be performed by interfering with one of the monoclonal antibodies' mechanisms have been molecules of cancerous cells due to the type of breast proposed depending on the molecular characteristics cancer such as HER2. However, there is a recent such as cytotoxicity, modification of immune approach inhibiting the immune checkpoint by signaling, cellular activation/ interactivity, limitation different antibodies (22). Conjugation of antibodies of growing and proliferation, and foreign entities with drugs is the other treatment approach (23). In deactivation (13). this article, different types of monoclonal antibodies, Over the last two decades, monoclonal from the most common monoclonal antibodies to antibodies have become an interesting therapeutic treat breast cancer to more recently developed ones, option to treat different types of breast cancer as illustrated in Figure 1, will be overviewed . because of their specific targeting ability and overall response rate (14,15). Breast cancer has different COMMON THERAPEUTIC ANTIBODIES histological or molecular subtypes. Gene expression AGAINST BREAST CANCER profiling studies are the main determinants of molecular subtypes. The groups of genes which the Harboring overexpression of human epidermal molecular classification of breast cancer is done growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is observed in about based on their overexpression are estrogen receptor 15-20% of breast cancer patients, making HER2 a (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and members of potential target in developing therapeutic epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) family of approaches. In this way, many monoclonal receptor tyrosine kinases, including HER2 (Human antibodies were produced that target HER2. epidermal growth factor receptor 2) and EGFR Trastuzumab (Herceptin), as the first HER2 targeting (16,17). ER and PR are two hormone receptors (HR) approved humanized monoclonal antibody (IgG1), is that drive breast cancer progression (18). ER is considered for HER2 positive patients as first-line expressed in 75% of breast cancers overall and acts neoadjuvant therapy, in which a therapeutic agent is as a ligand-responsive transcription factor. administered before the main treatment such as Subsequent binding ER to its ligand, ERs dimerize surgery (24). Trastuzumab is prescribed for early- and get into the nucleus, where they bind to estrogen stage and metastatic cases (8,25). A recent study response elements (EREs) and stimulate showed that the combination therapy of trastuzumab transcription of genes related to cell proliferation and with capecitabine (a chemotherapy medication) and growth (18). Other proteins over-expressed in breast tucatinib (a small molecule inhibiting HER2) could cancer are epidermal growth factor receptors such as result in better overall survival in heavily pretreated HER2 and EGFR. All members have a similar patients who are suffering from HER2+ metastatic structure containing four extracellular domains, a breast cancer (15). transmembrane region, and an intracellular tyrosine Another FDA-approved neoadjuvant antibody kinase domain (19). Binding EGFR and HER2 is pertuzumab which targets the dimerization domain receptors to growth factors cause hetero or of HER2 (extracellular domain 2) and blocks homodimerization of receptors which activate the signaling pathways (26). In two APHINITY and autophosphorylation of intracellular tyrosine kinase CLEOPATRA trials, a combination of pertuzumab domain of the receptor. Phosphorylated tyrosine with trastuzumab plus chemotherapy or docetaxel kinase domain drives different signaling pathways improved invasive disease-free survival (DFS) and such as PI3K/AKT/TOR, RAS/MAPK, JAK/STAT, prolonged median overall survival (OS) by 15.7 and phospholipase Cγ (PLCγ), which lead to months, respectively (27,28).

  • Predictive QSAR Tools to Aid in Early Process Development of Monoclonal Antibodies
    Predictive QSAR tools to aid in early process development of monoclonal antibodies John Micael Andreas Karlberg Published work submitted to Newcastle University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Engineering November 2019 Abstract Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have become one of the fastest growing markets for diagnostic and therapeutic treatments over the last 30 years with a global sales revenue around $89 billion reported in 2017. A popular framework widely used in pharmaceutical industries for designing manufacturing processes for mAbs is Quality by Design (QbD) due to providing a structured and systematic approach in investigation and screening process parameters that might influence the product quality. However, due to the large number of product quality attributes (CQAs) and process parameters that exist in an mAb process platform, extensive investigation is needed to characterise their impact on the product quality which makes the process development costly and time consuming. There is thus an urgent need for methods and tools that can be used for early risk-based selection of critical product properties and process factors to reduce the number of potential factors that have to be investigated, thereby aiding in speeding up the process development and reduce costs. In this study, a framework for predictive model development based on Quantitative Structure- Activity Relationship (QSAR) modelling was developed to link structural features and properties of mAbs to Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography (HIC) retention times and expressed mAb yield from HEK cells. Model development was based on a structured approach for incremental model refinement and evaluation that aided in increasing model performance until becoming acceptable in accordance to the OECD guidelines for QSAR models.

  • Immune Regulation by CD52-Expressing CD4 T Cells

All rights reserved 1672-7681/13 $32.00 www.nature.com/cmi RESEARCH HIGHLIGHT Immune regulation by CD52-expressing CD4 T cells Ban-Hock Toh1, Tin Kyaw1,2, Peter Tipping1 and Alex Bobik2 T-cell regulation by CD52-expressing CD4 T cells appears to operate by two different and possibly synergistic mechanisms. The first is by its release from the cell surface of CD4 T cells that express high levels of CD52 that then binds to the inhibitory sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectins-10 (Siglec-10) receptor to attenuate effector T-cell activation by impairing phosphorylation of T-cell receptor associated lck and zap-70. The second mechanism appears to be by crosslinkage of the CD52 molecules by an as yet unidentified endogenous ligand that is mimicked by a bivalent anti-CD52 antibody that results in their expansion.

  • USAN Naming Guidelines for Monoclonal Antibodies |
    Monoclonal Antibodies In October 2008, the International Nonproprietary Name (INN) Working Group Meeting on Nomenclature for Monoclonal Antibodies (mAb) met to review and streamline the monoclonal antibody nomenclature scheme. Based on the group's recommendations and further discussions, the INN Experts published changes to the monoclonal antibody nomenclature scheme. In 2011, the INN Experts published an updated "International Nonproprietary Names (INN) for Biological and Biotechnological Substances—A Review" (PDF) with revisions to the monoclonal antibody nomenclature scheme language. The USAN Council has modified its own scheme to facilitate international harmonization. This page outlines the updated scheme and supersedes previous schemes. It also explains policies regarding post-translational modifications and the use of 2-word names. The council has no plans to retroactively change names already coined. They believe that changing names of monoclonal antibodies would confuse physicians, other health care professionals and patients. Manufacturers should be aware that nomenclature practices are continually evolving. Consequently, further updates may occur any time the council believes changes are necessary. Changes to the monoclonal antibody nomenclature scheme, however, should be carefully considered and implemented only when necessary. Elements of a Name The suffix "-mab" is used for monoclonal antibodies, antibody fragments and radiolabeled antibodies. For polyclonal mixtures of antibodies, "-pab" is used. The -pab suffix applies to polyclonal pools of recombinant monoclonal antibodies, as opposed to polyclonal antibody preparations isolated from blood. It differentiates polyclonal antibodies from individual monoclonal antibodies named with -mab. Sequence of Stems and Infixes The order for combining the key elements of a monoclonal antibody name is as follows: 1.

  • PD-1 / PD-L1 Combination Therapies
    PD-1 / PD-L1 Combination Therapies Jacob Plieth & Edwin Elmhirst – May 2017 Foreword Sprinkling the immuno-oncology dust When in November 2015 EP Vantage published its first immuno- oncology analysis we identified 215 studies of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 projects combined with other approaches, and called this an important industry theme. It is a measure of how central combos have become that today, barely 18 months on, that total has been blown out of the water. No fewer than 765 studies involving combinations of PD-1 or PD-L1 assets are now listed on the Clinicaltrials.gov registry. This dazzling array owes much to the transformational nature of the data seen with the first wave of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 MAbs. It also indicates how central combinations will be in extending immuno-oncology beyond just a handful of cancers, and beyond certain patient subgroups. But the combo effort is as much about extending the reach of currently available drugs like Keytruda, Opdivo and Tecentriq as it is about making novel approaches viable by combining them with PD-1/PD-L1. On a standalone basis several of the industry’s novel oncology projects have underwhelmed. As data are generated it will therefore be vital for investors to tease out the effect of combinations beyond that of monotherapy, and it is doubtful whether the sprinkling of magic immuno-oncology dust will come to the rescue of substandard products. This is not stopping many companies, as the hundreds of combination studies identified here show. This report aims to quantify how many trials are ongoing with which assets and in which cancer indications, as well as suggesting reasons why some of the most popular approaches are being pursued.

Authors: Konrad Krawczyk1*, Matthew Raybould2, Aleksandr Kovaltsuk2, Charlotte M. Deane2 1 NaturalAntibody, Hamburg, Germany 2 Oxford University Department of Statistics, Oxford, UK *Correspondence to [email protected] Abstract: Recently it has become possible to query the great diversity of natural antibody repertoires using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS). These methods are capable of producing millions of sequences in a single experiment. Here we compare Clinical Stage Therapeutic antibodies to the ~1b sequences from 60 independent sequencing studies in the Observed Antibody Space Database. Of the 242 post Phase I antibodies, we find 16 with sequence identity matches of 95% or better for both heavy and light chains. There are also 54 perfect matches to therapeutic CDR-H3 regions in the NGS outputs, suggesting a nontrivial amount of convergence between naturally observed sequences and those developed artificially. This has potential implications for both the discovery of antibody therapeutics and the legal protection of commercial antibodies. Introduction Antibodies are proteins in jawed vertebrates that recognize noxious molecules (antigens) for elimination. An organism expresses millions of diverse antibodies to increase the chances that some of them will be able to bind the foreign antigen, initiating the adaptive immune response.
