Site-Specific Antibody Conjugation to Engineered Double Cysteine Residues

Abstract: Site-specific antibody conjugations generate homogeneous antibody-drug conjugates with high therapeutic index. However, there are limited examples for producing the site-specific conjugates with a drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR) greater than two, especially using engineered cysteines. Based on available Fc structures, we designed and introduced free cysteine residues into various antibody CH2 and CH3 regions to explore and expand this technology. The mutants were generated using site-directed mutagenesis with goo… Show more

“…Therefore, bioengineered antibodies were developed with added cysteine residues on the light and heavy chains that provided reactive thiols for conjugation while maintaining antibody assembly and antigen binding . These engineered mAbs based on trastuzumabcalled THIOMAB antibody technologyhave been used in several studies to yield highly potent site-specific ADCs targeting HER2-positive cancers. …”

“…There are many different sites in Fab and Fc regions that have been engineered to introduce single unpaired Cys residues for site-specific conjugation [ 15 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 ]. Recently, antibody engineering by introducing double and triple unpaired Cys has also been described leading to conjugates with more payloads (DAR of more than two) per antibody [ 22 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 ].…”

“…Currently, this conjugation technology is being revised for the production of site-specific ADCs with higher DARs. Refinements such as engineering multiple unpaired cysteines in the antibody or utilizing branched linkers are under development [113,114].…”
