Abstract:
:Structural features of lysine-conjugated antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) from humanized IgG1 were studied by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). As the physicochemical properties of the cytotoxic drug (payload) and linker may impact the conformational and colloidal stabilities of the conjugated monoclonal antibody (mAb), it is essential to characterize how the conjugation may affect the overall higher order structure and therefore the physical stability and integrity of the ADCs upon storage conditions. Here, the ADC monomer and aggregates generated upon thermal stress were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography coupled to SAXS with a particular focus on the fraction of dimers (3-10% depending on the storage conditions at 25 and 40 °C). In addition to average parameters such as radius of gyration, molecular weight, and maximal end-to-end distance, the structural information obtained from SAXS patterns were visualized as a low-resolution average envelope of both monomers and dimers (implementation of two methods: ab initio reconstruction and modeling Fab and Fc as rigid bodies with a flexible hinge). We showed that the monomer envelope of the ADC was similar to the corresponding (nonconjugated) parent monoclonal antibody (mAb). ADC dimers appeared more compact and less polydisperse than the dimers of mAb, which was also confirmed by atomic force microscopy. The generated envelopes of the mAb dimers suggest elongated structures with one or few inter-mAb contacts at the outermost region of Fab or Fc domains. The structural features of ADC dimers are independent of the tested pH buffering system (pH 5.0/acetate and pH 6.0/histidine with or without NaCl) and characterized by multiple, tighter contacts between the Fab and Fc domains and distortion of the monomer native shape. Results from the SAXS structural study show in the present case that conjugation has favored innermost inter-ADC contacts in the dimer, which differ from the inter-mAb ones. In general, it is likely that many parameters affect inter-ADC association, including the chemical nature of linkers and drugs, degree of conjugation, conjugation sites, etc. Making a qualitative difference between mAb and ADC dimers as a function of these parameters can help point to the presence of tight associations that must be abolished in protein drug formulations.
