`
`Biological properties of the humanized antibody
`For optimal use in treatment of human disease, the
`humanized antibody should be able to destroy T-cells in the
`body that ~xpress th~ IL-2 receptor. One mechanism by which
`antibodies may destroy target cells is antibody-dependent
`cell-mediated r.ytotoxicity, abbreviated AOCC (F~ndamental
`Immunology, Paul, w., Ed., Raven Press, New York (1984), at
`pg. 681), in which the antibody forms a bridge between the
`target cell and an effector cell such as a macrophage that
`can lyse the target. To determine whether the humanized
`antibody and the original mouse anti-Tac antibody can mediate
`ADCC, a chromium release assay was performed by standard
`methods. Specifically, human leukemia HUT-102 cells, which
`express the IL-2 receptor, ~ere incubated with 51 cr to allow
`them to absorb this radionuclide. The H'JT-102 cells were
`then incubated with an excess of either anti-Tac or humanized
`anti-Tac antibojy. The HUT-102 cells were next incubated for
`4 hrs with either a 30:1 or 100:1 ratio of effector cells,
`which were normal purified human peripheral blood mononuclea~
`cells that had been activated by incubation for about 20 hrs
`with human recombinant IL-2. Release of 51cr, which i~dicated
`lysis of the target HUT-102 cells, was measured and the
`background subtracted (Table 1). The results sho~ that at
`either ratio of effector cells, anti-Tac did not lysa a
`significant number of the target cells (less than 5%), while
`the humanized antibody did (more than 20%). Hence, the
`humanized antibody is likely to be more efficacious than the
`original mouse antibody in treating T-cell leukemia or other
`T-cell mediated diseases.

`
`From the foregoing, it will be appreciated that ~ne
`human-like i:ro.munoglobulins of the present invention offer
`numerous advantages of other human IL-2 receptor-specific
`a~tibodies.
`In comparison to anti-Tac mouse monoclonal
`antibodies, the present human-like il!lIIlunoglobulin can be more
`~ccnomically produced and contain substantially less foreign
`amino acid sequences. This reduc£d likelihood of
`antigenicity after injection into a human patient represents
`a significant therapeutic improvement.
`Although the present invention has been described
`in some detail by way of illustration and example fo~
`purposes of clarity and understanding, it will be apparenc
`that certain changes and modifications may be practiced
`within the scope of the appended claims.

`DESIGNING IMPROVED HU1'f.ANIZED IMMUNOGI,,pBULINS
`
`CROSS-REFERENCE TO R~I.ATED APPL~CATION
`This is a continuation-in-part ~pplication of
`commonly assigned patent application U.S.S.N. 290,975, filed
`December 28, 1988, which is incorporated herein by reference.
`
`Field of the Invention
`The ~resent invention relates generally to the
`combination of recombinant DNA and monoclonal antibody
`technologies fer developing novel therapeutic agents ~~d,
`raore particularly, to the production of ~on-immunogenic
`antibodies having strong affinity for a predetermined
`antigen.
`
`Backcround of the Inv~ntion
`The advent of monoclonal antibody technology in tha
`mid 1970's heralded a new age of medicine. For the firs~
`time, researchers and clinicians had access to essentially
`unliraited quantities of uniform antibodies capable of !:inding
`to a predete~ined antigenic sit.<= and having various
`immunological effector functions. These proteins, knc• .. m as
`"monoclonal antibodies" were thought to hold great promise
`in ,~ , the removal of harmful cells in vivo.
`Indeed, the
`clinical value of monoclonal antibodies seemed liraitless for
`thi.~ use alone.
`Unfortunately, the development of appropriate
`therapeutic products based on these proteins has been
`severely hampered by a number of drawbacks inherent i~
`monoclonal antibcdy production. For example, most monoclonal
`antibodies are mouse derived, and thus do not fix hu:n.an
`complement well. They also lack other important
`imrnunoglobulin functional characteristics when used in
`humans.
`
`Perhaps most importantly, non-human nonoclonal
`antibodies contain substantfal stretches of amino acid
`sequences. that will be irrunu:.1ogenic when injected into a hu:n.an

`patient. Numerous studies have shown that after injection of
`a foreign antibody, the immune response mounted by a patient
`can be quite strong, essentially eliminating the antibody's
`therapeutic utility after an initial treatment. Moreover, as
`increasing numbers of different mouse or other antigenic (to
`humans) monoclonal antibodies can be expected to developed to
`treat various diseases, after the first or second treatments
`with any non-human antibodies, subsequent treatments, even
`for unrelated therapies, can be ineffective or even dangerous
`in themselves.
`While the production of so called "chimeric
`antibodies" (~ , mouse variable regions joined to human
`constant regions) has proven somewhat successful, a
`significant irnrnunogenicity problem remains. Moreover,
`efforts to immortalize human B-cells or generate humin
`hybridomas capable of producing human irnmunoglobulins agai~st
`a desired antigen have been generally unsuccessful,
`particularly with many important human antigens. Most
`recently, recor.~inant DNA technology has been utilized to
`produce immunoglobulir1s which have human framework regions
`combined with complementarity determining regions {CDR's)
`from a donor mouse or rat immunoglobulin {.§.§.g, ~ , EPO
`Publication No. 0239400, which is incorporated herein by
`reference). These new proteins are called "humanized
`immunoglobulins" and the process by which the donor
`immunoglobulin is converted into a human-like irnmunoglobulin
`by combining its CDR's with a human framework is called
`"humanization". Humanized antibodies are important because
`they bind to the same antigen as ;:he original anti:bodi't,!S,
`::::ut
`are less immunogenic when injected into humans.
`However, a major problem with present humanization
`procedure$ has been a loss of affinity for the antigen,
`usually by at least 2 to 3-fold (Tones et al., Nature,
`2£1:522-525 (1986)) and in some instances as much as 10-fold
`or more, especially when the antigen is a protein (Verhoeyen
`et al., Science, 239:1534-1536 (1988)). Loss of any affinity
`is, of course, highly undesirable. At the least, it means
`that more of the humanized antibody will have to be injected

`into the patient, at higher cost and greater risk of adverse
`effects. Even more critically, an antibody ',o/ith reduced
`affinity may have poorer biological functions, such as
`complement lysis, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity,
`or virus neutralization. For example, the loss of affinity
`in the partially humanized antibody HuVHCAMP may have caused
`it to' lose all ability to mediate complement lysis (see,
`Riechmann et al., Sature, 332:323-327 (1988}; Table 1).
`Thus, there is a need for improved means for
`producing humanized antibodies specifically reactive ',o/ith
`strong affinity to a predetermined antigen. These humanized
`immunoglobulins should r
