Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for producing an antibody composition. More specifically, it relates to a method for purifying an antibody composition in which isomers with sugar chains added to other than the Fc region sugar chain-binding consensus region are reduced.
- Antibody drugs that use monoclonal antibodies as active ingredients are expected to be one of the molecular target drugs that make use of the high binding affinity and binding specificity of antibody molecules to antigens, and research and development have progressed. Antibody drugs have become indispensable for the treatment of various diseases, including cancer and autoimmune diseases, and currently, nearly 100 products have been approved and used around the world (non-patented). Document 1, Non-Patent Document 2). There are still high expectations for the development of new antibody drugs that satisfy unmet medical needs, and it is expected that many new antibody drugs will be researched and developed in the future.
- Antibodies have N at the 297th Asn residue (Asn297) in the glycosylation consensus region (Asn297-X-Ser/Thr, where X is an amino acid other than Pro) present in the Fc portion of the heavy chain. - It has a conjugated sugar chain.
- the sugar chains present in this glycosylation consensus region are known to contribute to biological activity, blood dynamics, safety, etc. as antibody molecules (Non-Patent Documents 3 and 4). For example, removal of the Fuc residue (core fucose) attached to the N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) residue at the reducing end of the N-linked sugar chain of Asn297 enhances antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) activity.
- ADCC antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity
- Non-Patent Document 5 Non-Patent Document 5
- Non-Patent Document 3 Non-Patent Document 6
- Non-Patent Document 8 Non-Patent Document 8
- Glycosylation isomers have various properties such as biological activity (Non-Patent Document 10, Non-Patent Document 11), immunogenicity (Non-Patent Document 8, Non-Patent Document 10), blood half-life (Non-Patent Document 9), etc. It is known that it can affect the properties of antibodies. In particular, when a sugar chain is bound near the Fab region or the CDR region, there is concern that the biological activity may decrease. Similarly, glycosylated isomers of antibodies in which sugar chains are bound to sites other than the glycosylated consensus region have safety concerns such as immunogenicity.
- glycosylation outside the glycosylation consensus region significantly reduces biological activity or significantly increases immunogenicity, it will have negative effects that are not desirable as a component of an antibody drug. Therefore, these glycosylated isomers are regarded as target substance-derived impurities. Such target-substance-derived impurities are not desirable to be included as components of pharmaceuticals, and it is desirable to remove them as much as possible from the viewpoint of regulation (Non-Patent Document 12).
- the sugar chain will not bind to that site. Generally, such as changing the consensus sequence to another amino acid sequence. In that case, the binding activity may be lowered compared to the performance of the original antibody, and it may not be possible to obtain an antibody having the desired therapeutic effect.
- Glycosylation isomers in which sugar chains are bound to regions other than the glycosylation consensus region of the antibody, such as Fab or CDR, are evaluated by separating glycosylation isomers at a small amount and at a high-performance analytical level. , can be discerned.
- a method of evaluating a peptide fragment by combining high-performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry and a method of evaluating a sugar chain itself cleaved from an antibody are known (Non-Patent Document 6, Non-Patent Document 9).
- HIC hydrophobic interaction chromatography
- Non-Patent Document 14 discloses the usefulness of separation performance of many antibodies, but does not suggest that glycosylation isomers can be separated by a purification method using HIC.
- Non-Patent Documents 15 and 16 There are reports on the separation of glycosylated isomers by affinity chromatography using a lectin that specifically binds to a given sugar chain. It uses Concanavalin A as a ligand and is known to have high separation characteristics, but since it is separation by affinity and uses natural products, it is not suitable for the production of pharmaceuticals, and is not suitable for the production of antibody pharmaceuticals. There are no applicable cases.
- Patent Document 1 As a technology that has realized the separation of sugar chain components other than antibodies, there is a known case of separating recombinant antithrombin by chromatography based on the difference in the number of sugar chains (Patent Document 1). In addition, recombinant erythropoietin and its derivatives are separated by chromatography based on the difference in the number of sialic acid additions (Patent Document 2). Similarly, there is a case in which isoelectric focusing chromatography was used to separate ovalbumin and transferrin (Patent Document 3). However, these techniques cannot be directly applied to antibodies, and there is no report on a production method for separating and removing glycosylated isomers in antibody compositions.
- Non-Patent Document 17 a method of removing sugar chains by enzymatic treatment is known (Non-Patent Document 17).
- the isolation, removal, and origin of the enzyme are also problematic, making it difficult to use this method as a manufacturing technology for pharmaceuticals.

Capto ButylとPOROS Benzyl Ultraクロマトグラフィ担体について、段階的溶出により糖鎖付加異性体が除去可能であるか否かを検討した。負荷液としてはProtein Aアフィニティクロマトグラフィで精製した実施例1の抗体粗精製物を0.5M TrisでpH4.5又はpH5.0に調整したものを使用した。パラメータとして、試料負荷液の塩濃度、洗浄液(洗浄液I、洗浄液II)のpH及び塩濃度、並びに、溶出緩衝液の種類及びpHを検討し、抗体の収率及び精製画分の非糖鎖付加異性体抗体純度(糖鎖付加コンセンサス領域以外に糖鎖が付加していない抗体の純度)(HIC-HPLC分析法による糖鎖付加異性体の含量)を測定した。試験結果を表3に示す。
(i)洗浄液(洗浄液I及び/又は洗浄液II)のpHを上げると純度が向上する。
(ii)洗浄液(洗浄液I及び/又は洗浄液II)のpHを上げると収率が低下する。
(iii)溶出液のpHを上げると純度が向上する。
(iv)溶出液のpHを上げると収率が低下する。
(v)負荷液及び/又は洗浄液の塩濃度を下げると収率が低下する。
(vi)抗体組成物の純度として95%以上、理想的には99%以上を達成可能な条件を設定できる。
実施例1と同様にして調製した抗hDLK-1抗体を含む培養上清をProtein Aアフィニティクロマトグラフィで精製し、糖鎖付加異性体を約10%含む同抗体の粗精製物を得た。この抗体粗精製物に終濃度1.0Mとなるように塩化ナトリウムを添加した後、pH及び導電率を適宜調整し、クロマトグラフィ担体への負荷用試料とした。当該抗体粗精製物を用い、POROS Benzyl Ultra担体を用いて、試料の負荷量、洗浄液I及び洗浄液IIの液量をインプットパラメータとして、アウトプットパラメータである収率及びHIC-HPLC分析による純度を評価した。
すなわち、この結果から、クロマトグラフィにおけるタンパク質負荷量を一定以上にすること、及び/又は、洗浄液量を適切に管理することにより、糖鎖付加異性体の含有量を約10%から3~0%の範囲へ低減し管理できることが明らかとなった。実験計画法(DoE:Design of Experiment)により当該結果を解析した結果を図6に示す。洗浄液I及び洗浄液IIの液量と収率及び純度への影響が等高線図として現わされ、任意の収率及び純度を洗浄液量で管理できることが明らかとなった。
実施例1と同様にして調製した抗hDLK-1抗体を含む培養上清をProtein Aアフィニティクロマトグラフィで精製し、糖鎖付加異性体を約10%含む同抗体の粗精製物を得た。この抗体粗精製物をpH3~4に一定時間保持し、中和したものをクロマトグラフィ担体への負荷用試料とした。

実施例1と同様にして調製した抗hDLK-1抗体を含む培養上清を得た。糖鎖付加異性体が抗体粗精製物中に約10%含まれることを確認した。
この結果に示すように、POROS Benzyl Ultra担体以外の疎水性相互作用クロマトグラフィ担体を用いても高純度の精製抗体組成物を得られることが分かった。
実施例1と同様にして取得した糖鎖付加異性体を約10%含む抗hDLK-1抗体粗精製物について、実施例1に記載したHIC-HPLC分析系を用いて各ピークを精密に分取した。分取は約10回に分けて実施し、各ピークを統合した後、等張リン酸緩衝液に緩衝液交換した。なお、分取に使用したHIC-HPLCの移動相の条件は以下に変更した。
