Synergistic Neutralization of Pertussis Toxin by a Bispecific Antibody In Vitro and In Vivo

Abstract: Bispecific antibodies are a rapidly growing class of therapeutic molecules, originally developed for the treatment of cancer but recently explored for the treatment of autoimmune and infectious diseases. Bordetella pertussis is a reemerging pathogen, and several of the key symptoms of infection are caused by the pertussis toxin (PTx). Two humanized antibodies, hu1B7 and hu11E6, bind distinct epitopes on PTx and, when coadministered, mitigate disease severity in murine and baboon models of infection. Here we de… Show more

“…Prior experiments indicated the PTx-induced CHO cell clustering morphology is completely neutralised by a 1,000-fold molar excess of hu11E6 or >5,000-fold molar excess of hu1B7 in the presence of PTx Wagner et al, 2016). Prior experiments indicated the PTx-induced CHO cell clustering morphology is completely neutralised by a 1,000-fold molar excess of hu11E6 or >5,000-fold molar excess of hu1B7 in the presence of PTx Wagner et al, 2016).…”

“…Indeed, both appear to act by altering PTx interactions with target cells: hu11E6 by blocking the initial toxin-receptor interaction and hu1B7 by altering toxin internalisation and retrograde trafficking in more subtle ways(Figure 3a).Although effector functions do not appear to be involved in hu1B7 or hu11E6 neutralisation of PTx toxicity, the interaction of the Fc domain with Fc receptors may increase the protection conferred by antitoxin antibodies through clearance of immune complexes(Ganesan et al, 2012;Montero-Julian et al, 1995). CHO cells are highly susceptible to PTx intoxication and exhibit altered morphology in the presence of very low PTx concentrations, as low as 4 pM(Wagner et al, 2016). We anticipate that larger complexes may also be formed through 2:2 binding stoichiometry, because each PTx molecule can bind two antibodies (Figure 2a)and it is reasonable that a single antibody can bind two PTx molecules, based on binding of a bispecific antibody composed of the hu1B7 and hu11E6 binding sites to two PTx molecules(Wagner et al, 2016).…”
