    Abstract

    Provided are compositions and methods that include binding partners that bind with specificity to target sites on proteins or peptides that comprise a covalently attached molecule. The binding partners are provided as antibodies and antibody derivatives that specifically bind to proteins and peptides that have been covalently modified by attachment of a molecule, such as a drug. The binding partners can bind with specificity to covalently modified peptides when presented in the context of a major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Uses of the compositions and methods for prophylaxis or therapy of disorders are also provided.

    Claims

    1. A binding partner that binds with specificity to a site on a protein or peptide that comprises a covalently linked molecule (a peptide conjugate).

    DETAILED DESCRIPTION

    [0030] Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs.

    [0031] Every numerical range given throughout this specification includes its upper and lower values, as well as every narrower numerical range that falls within it, as if such narrower numerical ranges were all expressly written herein.

    [0032] As used in the specification and the appended claims, the singular forms a and and the include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Ranges may be expressed herein as from about one particular value, and/or to about another particular value. When such a range is expressed, another embodiment includes from the one particular value and/or to the other particular value. Similarly, when values are expressed as approximations, by the use of the antecedent about it will be understood that the particular value forms another embodiment. The term about in relation to a numerical value is optional and means for example +/?10%.

    [0033] This disclosure includes every amino acid sequence described herein and all nucleotide sequences encoding the amino acid sequences. Every antibody sequence and antigen binding fragments of them are included. Polynucleotide and amino acid sequences having from 80-99% similarity, inclusive, and including and all numbers and ranges of numbers there between, with the sequences provided here are included in the invention. All of the amino acid sequences described herein can include amino acid substitutions, such as conservative substitutions, that do not adversely affect the function of the protein that comprises the amino acid sequences. In this regard, the disclosure provides alternative residues for certain positions in described binding partner as described below. In certain examples, the alternative residues were identified by deep mutational scanning, which demonstrates binding functionality for each binding partner that contains the described amino acid change(s). The disclosure includes each binding partner with each alternative residue substituted for the original residue alone and in any combination with the described alternative residues. Thus, any binding partner described herein may have any single described residue change or a combination of described changes. Representative changes for particular antibodies are described in Table A, Table B, Table C, and Table D. The changes may be in CDR1, CDR2, CDR3, and combinations thereof. The changes can also include amino acid insertions. The disclosure includes each amino acid sequence that is encompassed by the description of alternative amino acids by reference to a specific sequence identifier and those described in the aforementioned Tables.

    [0034] As described above, the present disclosure provides antibodies and antigen binding fragments thereof (collectively binding partners and each individually a binding partner). The term antibody includes each binding partner format herein. The binding partners bind with specificity to a protein or fragment thereof, or a peptide provided in peptide form, that comprises a covalently attached molecule. The covalently attached molecule forms a peptide conjugate. A peptide conjugate as used herein means any protein or peptide that has been modified so that it is covalently conjugated to another molecule. The peptide conjugate is considered to be a novel antigen, i.e., a neoantigen. The other molecule that is covalently conjugated to the protein or peptide to form the peptide conjugate is not particularly limited, with the proviso that the other molecule is not an additional amino acid that is added to the described peptide conjugates. In embodiments, the molecule that is covalently conjugated to the protein or peptide has or had biological activity before conjugation, or it may be biologically inert before conjugation. In embodiments, the molecule is a drug, including but not necessarily limited to small molecule drugs. Representative and non-limiting examples of drugs that covalently attach to a peptide or protein to form a peptide conjugate are described below. Peptide conjugates include but are not limited to covalently modified full length proteins and fragments thereof. Peptide conjugates include fragments of full length proteins that include a covalent modification and are produced, for example, by intracellular processing. In certain embodiments, a full length protein may be covalently modified within a cell and subsequently processed such that a peptide conjugate that is a fragment of the full length protein is produced. As described further below, the produced peptide conjugate may be displayed on a cell surface. The cell surface display of the peptide conjugate may be any form of cell surface display, including but not limited to by way of any receptor having an extracellular segment, or it may be displayed by way of any type of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) or human leukocyte antigen (HLA). Non-limiting examples of HLA types that display peptide conjugates, and to which the described binding partners bind with specificity, are described further below.

    [0035] In embodiments, the binding partners preferentially bind to the protein or peptide or a complex comprising the protein or peptide when covalently bound to the peptide conjugate, relative to the same protein or peptide that is not bound to the drug. Accordingly, binding partners described herein either do not detectably bind, or bind with a lower affinity, to the same protein or fragment thereof in the absence of the covalently attached molecule. In embodiments, the binding partners bind to the protein or peptide comprising the covalently attached drug with an affinity that is 10-10,000 fold, including all numbers and ranges of numbers from 10-10,000, greater than the affinity for the protein or peptide that does not comprise the covalently bound molecule. In this regard, and without intending to be bound by any particular theory, it is considered that the presence of the covalently bound molecule contributes to the presence of an epitope to which the binding partners bind with specificity.

    [0036] In embodiments, the molecule that is covalently bound to form the peptide conjugate is a drug and may be any targeted covalent inhibitor (TCI), but an inhibition property is not necessarily required. In embodiments, the molecule reacts with a specific residue within the target protein. In embodiments, the molecule reacts at least in part with a segment of the protein or peptide that comprises a nucleophilic, or an electrophilic, residue. In embodiments, the segment of the protein or peptide to which the molecule reacts comprises any of Cys, Lys, Tyr, and His. In embodiments, the molecule reacts at least in part with a segment of the protein or peptide that comprises a wild type Cys, or a mutation of a residue to a Cys, and thus may be covalently attached by a so-called sulfur tether. In embodiments, the drug is any drug described in Ghosh A K, Samanta I, Mondal A, Liu W R. Covalent Inhibition in Drug Discovery. ChemMedChem. 2019; 14(9):889-906. doi:10.1002/cmdc.201900107, or in De Cesco, et al., European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 138 (2017) 96e114, or in Bauer, R A, Drug Discovery Today, Volume 20, Number 9, September 2015, from which the disclosures of compounds that covalently modify protein targets is incorporated herein by reference.

    [0037] In non-limiting embodiments, any of said Cys, Lys, Tyr, and His amino acids are present in the protein or peptide to which the molecule binds because the wild type protein has been mutated to include one or a combination of the described residues. In non-limiting embodiments, the molecule binds to a protein or peptide that is correlated with a condition, such as a cancer. In embodiments, the target (e.g., the protein or peptide to which the molecule covalently binds) is a receptor, including but not necessarily limited to any receptor having a catalytically active segment. In embodiments, the drug binds to an enzyme that is not necessarily a receptor, including but not limited to any kinase. In embodiments, a protein target comprises a receptor with one or more activating mutations, which promote ligand-independent enzyme activity.

    [0038] In embodiments, the molecule targets and thus covalently binds to an amino acid sequence present within any of the following proteins and/or variants thereof, which may or may not comprise a mutation, such as a mutation that is related to a particular condition, including but not limited to any type of cancer. In embodiments, the protein is any protein described in Visscher M, et al., Covalent targeting of acquired cysteines in cancer. Curr Opin Chem Biol. 2016; 30:61-67. doi:10.1016/j.cbpa.2015.11.004, from which the description is incorporated herein by reference. Visscher et al. also teaches methods for identifying disease-associated mutated genes that introduces a Cys residue suitable for covalent modification. In embodiments, the protein is KRAS, Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), any member of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) family, also referred to as the ERBB family, including but not limited to EGFR (ERBB1), HER2/NEU (ERBB2), HER3 (ERBB3), and HER4 (ERBB4); a fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR); the receptor kinase known in the art as MET, BRAF, a cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK); Acetyl Choline Esterase (ACHE); TP53, IDH1, GNAS, FBXW7, CTNNB1, DNMT3A, any cathepsin, including cathepsin B, C, F, H, K, L, O, S, V, W and X; any caspase; any protein involved in obesity, such as Pancreatic lipase and METAP2, or any Cancer Testis Antigen. In embodiments, the drug targets and therefore covalently binds to any viral protein, including but not limited to a polymerase, including any viral DNA polymerase, RNA polymerase, reverse transcriptase, or RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, or a viral protein that is required, for example, viral cell entry, or a protein encoded by any a transposable element. In embodiments, the drug targets EGFR and may be selected from PD168393, PF00299804 (dacomitinib), EKB569 (pelitinib), afatinib, WZ4002, osimertinib (formerly known as AZD9291), PF-06459988, nazartinib, naquotinib, olmutinib, avitinib, and rociletinib, neratinib, pyrotinib, poziotinib, and derivatives thereof.

In embodiments, the drug targets any FGFR, and may be selected from FIIN-1, FIIN-2, FIIN-3, BGJ398, AZD4547, PRN1371, FGF401.

    [0039] In a non-limiting embodiment, the binding partner binds with specificity to a site comprised by a neoantigen that includes a covalently linked small molecule drug or other covalently linked molecule as a component of an antigen in a specific MHC context.

    [0040] In embodiments, the molecule that becomes covalently bound to form the peptide conjugate targets any RAS oncogene protein product, including but not necessarily limited to HRAS, NRAS, KRAS4A, and KRAS4B. The amino acid sequences of RAS proteins are known in the art, and residue numbering is identical for the relevant part of all RAS isotypes that are discussed in this disclosure for which the amino acid sequence is available from, for example, UniProt P01116, from which the amino acid sequence is incorporated herein as of the effective filing date of this application or patent. The G12 position is numbered according to the known amino acid sequence, regardless of whether or not the G12 is the twelfth amino acid in an express RAS peptide sequence of this disclosure.

    [0041] In one embodiment, the molecule covalently binds to a KRAS protein or peptide that comprises a mutation. In embodiments, the mutation is at least one of KRAS residues 12, 13, or 61. Reference to any drug herein includes its name in capitalized and un-capitalized form.

    [0042] In embodiments, the drug targets a KRAS protein comprising a KRAS G12C mutation. In non-limiting embodiments, the drug that targets a KRAS protein is selected from 2E07, 6H05, SML-8-73-1, MRTX849, JNJ74699157, LY3499446, ARS-853, ARS-1620, MRTX1275, AMG510, or derivatives thereof. In an embodiment the drug comprises a proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) derivative of a covalent drug, a non-limiting description of which is available in doi: 10.1021/acscentsci.0c00411, from which the description of PROTACs is incorporated herein by reference. In embodiments, the PROTAC is LC-1 or LC-2. In embodiments, the disclosure relates to an autophagy-mediated degrader, referred to as an AUTAC, as described in doi.org/10.1080/15548627.2020.1718362, from which the description of AUTACs is incorporated herein by reference.

    [0046] In embodiments, the binding partner binds to a protein in its native form, with the exception that the drug or other molecule is covalently attached to it. Native form means the intact protein that retains its biological function before covalent attachment of the drug or other molecule. In embodiments, the native form or the protein is its form before being fragmented such as by intracellular processing. In embodiments, the binding proteins therefore bind to full length polypeptides that are covalently attached to the drug or other molecule and wherein the covalently bound drug or other molecule at least in part permits the preferential binding of the binding partners. In general, a polypeptide, which is used interchangeably herein with the term protein, comprises more than 50 contiguous amino acids. In embodiments, a binding partner binds with specificity to an intact protein that is covalently attached to a drug or other molecule. In other embodiments, the binding partners bind with specificity to a peptide comprising the covalently bound molecule. In embodiments, the binding partner binds with specificity to a peptide having a specific amino acid sequence and is covalently conjugated to another molecule, such as a drug. In embodiments, the binding partner binds preferentially to a peptide covalently bound to a molecule such as a drug, where the sequence of the peptide is not relevant. This preferential binding is relative to binding to the same peptide that is not conjugated to the drug. In embodiments, the binding partner binds preferentially to a peptide comprising a KRAS(G12) mutation, or to a variant thereof, wherein the variant is at least 50% similar to the KRAS(G12)-containing peptide. This preferential binding is relative to binding to a KRAS(G12)-containing peptide, or the variant thereof, respectively, that is not covalently conjugated to the drug or other molecule.

    [0047] In embodiments, the described binding partners bind with specificity to peptide conjugates that are of suitable length to be presented in a major histocompatibility complex (MHC), referred to as human leukocyte antigen (HLA) in humans, or to MHC or its equivalent complex in non-human animals, including but not limited to non-human mammals.

    [0048] In general, the peptide conjugate comprises fewer than 50 contiguous amino acids. In embodiments, peptide conjugates which comprise the described epitope may therefore be from 2-49 amino acids in length. In embodiments, the peptide to which the drug or other molecule is covalently attached, and which attached drug may be comprised by the epitope, comprises from 4-12 contiguous amino acids, which may or may not be derived from a longer protein during the processing of a protein, such as an antigen processed for presentation by an MHC molecule. In embodiments, the drug is conjugated to a peptide that comprises, or consists of 7-30 amino acids. In embodiments, the drug or other molecule is conjugated to a peptide that comprises, or consists of, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15 amino acids, and which may be presented in an MHC Class I context. In embodiments, the drug or other molecule is conjugated to a peptide that is 9-30 amino acids, inclusive, and including all numbers and ranges of numbers there between, and which may be presented in an MHC Class II context. In embodiments, the drug or other molecule is conjugated to a peptide comprises at least 7 amino acids.

    [0049] In embodiments, a binding partner binds with specificity to a peptide conjugate that is covalently conjugated to a drug or other molecule independent of MHC presentation. In embodiments, non-limiting examples of which are described below in Example 3, the binding partner binds with specificity to the peptide conjugate only when the peptide conjugate is presented by an MHC molecule. In embodiments, the binding partner can bind with specificity to a peptide conjugate in both an MHC-independent and an MHC-presentation context. In embodiments, the MHC-peptide conjugate complex comprises an antigen to which a described binding partner binds with specificity.

    [0050] In embodiments, the binding partners accordingly can bind to cells via any MHC that can present peptide conjugates. In embodiments, the HLA is expressed by cells that are restricted to Class I, Class II, or Class III MHC presentation. In embodiments, the binding partners can bind to cells that express Class I MHC that presents the peptide conjugate. Those skilled in the art will recognize that Class I MHC includes, among other components, a polymorphic ? chain and ?2 microglobulin, wherein the peptide conjugate binds to the polymorphic chain.

    [0051] In embodiments, the cells are antigen presenting cells (APCs). In embodiments, the cells are so-called professional antigen presenting cells, and thus may include but are not limited to macrophages and dendritic cells, which display Class II MHC. Those skilled in the art will recognize that Class II MHC includes, among other components, MHC polymorphic ? and ? chains, and the displayed peptide conjugate binds to both chains. In other embodiments, Class II MHC may be displayed with the peptide conjugate by other cell types, such as cancer/tumor cells, and thus the disclosure provides for direct recognition of such cells using the described binding partners, without requirement for a professional APC.

    [0052] In embodiments, the peptide conjugate is displayed by a non-classical MHC complex, which may include CD1d, MR1, MHC-E, -F, -G and/or other emerging family members that will be recognized by those skilled in the art.

    [0053] The disclosure includes binding partners that bind with specificity to a peptide conjugate displayed only by a specific MHC type, and thus provides binding partners that discriminate between MHC types. Representative examples of such binding partners are described herein at least by way of FIG. 17.

    [0054] In embodiments, a binding partner of this disclosure can bind with specificity to a peptide conjugate comprising a covalently conjugated drug or other molecule that is displayed by more than one specific MHC type. In embodiments, a binding partner of this disclosure can bind with specificity to a peptide conjugate comprising a covalently conjugated drug only in a specific MHC context. In embodiments, the peptide conjugate is displayed by an MHC class I type selected from HLA-A, -B, -C, and combinations thereof. In certain aspects, the peptide conjugate is displayed in the context of any MHC class I that is A*02/B*35/C*04. In embodiments, the peptide conjugate is displayed by any of MHC of class II that is DR*01/DR*04/DR*07/DP*04. In embodiments, the HLA comprises A*01:01, A*02:01, A*03:01, A*11:01, A*24:02, A*26:01, B*07:02, B*08:01, B*27:05, B*39:01, B*40:01, B*58:01, or B*15:01. Specific examples of antibodies include antibodies that bind to KRAS(G12C)-AMG510 conjugate presented on HLA-A*03:01 and HLA-A*11:01, BTK-Ibrutinib conjugate presented on HLA-A*01:01, and EGFR-Osimertinib conjugate presented on HLA-A*02:01. In non-limiting embodiments, the disclosure provides scDbs that are specific for a particular drug that is covalently bound to a described peptide that is present on a specific HLA, or the same drug that is covalently bound to a described peptide that is present on two different HLAs. Representative scDbs are described in Example 4. Data obtained using the scDbs are presented via FIGS. 18 and 19. Data obtained using CrossMab formats are provided in Example 5 and its accompanying figures.

    [0055] In embodiments, the peptide conjugate is displayed by cells that participate in, or can be the targets of, cell-mediated immune responses. In embodiments the peptide conjugate that is displayed in any suitable MHC context is comprised by a cell that is recognized by a leukocyte, including but not necessarily limited to a T cell or a natural killer (NK) cell. In embodiments, the T cell is a CD4+ T cell, a CD8+ T cell, a double positive CD4+/CD8+ T cell, a CD4+/CD8+ double negative T cell, or a ?? T cell. Thus, and as described further below, the disclosure provides binding partners that are configured to interact with both the presented peptide conjugate and cells that participate in cell-mediated immune responses. In embodiments, certain described binding partners are capable of binding to a complex of 1) a specific MHC and 2) a specific peptide conjugate. In embodiments, certain described binding partners are capable of being bound to a specific peptide conjugate presented by at least two different MHCs.

    [0056] In embodiments, any binding partner of this disclosure comprises at least one chain that comprises a complementary determining region (CDR) that is CDR1, CDR2, or CDR3 from any heavy or light chain amino acid sequence described herein. In certain examples in the present specification, the CDRs are shown in bold font. The amino acid sequences of the CDR sequences are separately encompassed by this disclosure by way of their positions in the described heavy and light chain amino acid sequences. The disclosure includes binding partners that comprise a described heavy chain CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3. The disclosure also includes binding partners that comprise a described light chain CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3. The disclosure also includes binding partners that comprise a described heavy chain CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 and a described light chain CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3. For amino acid sequences of this disclosure that include amino acids that comprise purification or protein production tags, such as HIS tags and/or AVI-tags, the disclosure includes the proviso that the sequences of the described tags may be excluded from the amino acid sequences. Amino acids between the described tags may also be excluded.

    [0057] Binding partners of this disclosure can be provided as intact immunoglobulins or as fragments of immunoglobulins, including but not necessarily limited to antigen-binding (Fab) fragments, Fab fragments, (Fab).sub.2 fragments, Fd (N-terminal part of the heavy chain) fragments, Fv fragments (two variable domains), diabodies (Dbs), dAb fragments, single domain fragments or single monomeric variable antibody domains, single-chain Diabodies (scDbs), isolated complementary determining regions (CDRs), single-chain variable fragment (scFv), and other antibody fragments that retain antigen binding function. In embodiments, one or more binding partners are provided as a component of a Bi-specific T-cell engager (BiTE), bispecific killer cell engager (BiKE), CrossMab (e.g., a binding partner containing four different chains; immunoglobulin crossover (also known as Fab domain exchange or CrossMab format) technology (see eg., WO2009/080253; Schaefer et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 108:11187-11192 (2011).), or a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), such as for producing chimeric antigen receptor T cells (e.g., CAR T cells) and CAR natural killer (NK) cells, and killer macrophages. The disclosure includes binding partners that include the described heavy and light chain variable regions.

    [0058] In embodiments, the binding partners are multivalent. In embodiments, a tri-specific binding partner is provided. In embodiments, cells express at least a segment of one or more binding partners in the form of a CAR. In an embodiment, a binding partner of this disclosure may be provided as a complex with a polynucleotide, such as an RNA polynucleotide, to form an aptamer. In embodiments, a multi-valent binding partner includes one binding component, such as a paratope, that confers specificity to a particular target on a desired cell type, such as any cancer cell marker. In embodiments, a tri-specific leukocyte engager is provided. In embodiments, the binding partners may be part of a molecule that is activated only in the presence of a protease or other enzyme present in a tumor microenvironment, such embodiments being pertinent to, for instance, a probody, examples of which are known in the art, for example in doi: 10.1126/scitranslmed.3006682, doi: 10.1038/s41467-020-16838-w, and doi: 10.1038/s41587-019-0135-x, from which the descriptions of probodies, and protease activation, are incorporated herein by reference. In an embodiment, the disclosure provides a universal hapten that can be grafted onto inhibitors.

    [0059] In embodiments, a CAR of this disclosure comprises scFv that comprises heavy and light chains as described herein. As is known in the art for previously described CARs, the scFv is present in a contiguous polypeptide that further comprises a CD3zeta chain and a costimulatory domain. In embodiments, the costimulatory domain comprises a 4-1BB costimulatory domain or a CD28 costimulatory domain. A CAR may also contain a co-receptor hinge sequence, such as a CD8 a co-receptor hinge sequence.

    [0060] In embodiments, binding partners of this disclosure may comprise a constant region, e.g., an Fc region. Any isotype of constant region can be included. Binding partners that comprise a constant region may be particularly adapted for antibody-dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and thus may function to kill targeted cells by cell-mediated responses by any of a variety of effector cells. Similarly, a constant region may be particularly adapted for enhancing complement-mediated responses.

    [0061] In embodiments, a binding partner of this disclosure may be modified such that it is present in a fusion protein. In embodiments, an antigen binding segment of a binding partner may be present in a fusion protein, and/or the constant region may be a component of a fusion protein. In embodiments, a fusion protein comprises amino acids from at least two different proteins. Fusion proteins can be produced using any of a wide variety of standard molecular biology approaches, including but not necessarily limited to expression from any suitable expression vector. In embodiments, a binding partner described herein may be present in a fusion protein with a detectable protein, such as green fluorescent protein (GFP), enhanced GFP (eGFP), mCherry, and the like. In embodiments, as an alternative to an expression vector, an mRNA or chemically modified mRNA encoding any binding partner described herein can be delivered to cells such that the binding partner is translated by the cells.

    [0062] In embodiments, binding partners described herein are used to carry drugs or toxins, and thus the binding partners may be provided as immunotoxins, or in the form of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs).

    [0063] In embodiments, agents useful in the generation of immunotoxins include enzymatically active toxins and enzymatically active fragments thereof. Suitable enzymatically active toxins include but are not limited to diphtheria A chain, nonbinding active fragments of diphtheria toxin, exotoxin A chain (from Pseudomonas aeruginosa), ricin A chain, abrin A chain, modeccin A chain, alpha sarcin, Aleurites fordii proteins, dianthin proteins, Phytolaca americana proteins (PAPI, PAPII, and PAP-S), Momordica charantia inhibitor, curcin, crotin, Sapaonaria officinalis inhibitor, gelonin, mitogellin, restrictocin, phenomycin, enomycin and the tricothecenes. These can be provided as components of fusion proteins or can be covalently attached to the binding partner by any suitable conjugation approach.

    [0064] The binding partner may be connected to a chemotherapeutic agent by using any suitable linker to form an antibody drug conjugate (ADC). In embodiments, the linker comprises a disulfide, a hydrazine, or a thioether. The chemotherapeutic agent may be reversibly or irreversibly attached to the binding partner.

    [0065] Cleavable linkers may be particularly useful for killing bystander cells. In embodiments, a protease recognition site may be included to liberate the chemotherapeutic agent from the binding partner by operation of a protease that recognizes and cleaves at the protease recognition site. The ADC may therefore be considered to contain a prodrug.

    [0066] In embodiments, binding partners of this disclosure may comprise linking sequences. As a non-limiting example, an ScFv may comprise a linker that links segments comprising paratopes to one another. Suitable amino acid linkers may be mainly composed of relatively small, neutral amino acids, such as glycine, serine, and alanine, and can include multiple copies of a sequence enriched in glycine and serine. In specific and non-limiting embodiments, the linker comprises 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20 amino acids. In an example, the linker may be the glycine-serine-alanine linker G.sub.4SA.sub.3 (SEQ ID NO: 11) or a glycine-serine linker (G.sub.4S).sub.4 linker (SEQ ID NO: 12). In embodiments, a binding partner may include a cellular localization signal, or a secretion signal. In embodiments, binding partner may comprise a transmembrane domain, and thus may be trafficked to, and anchored in a cell membrane. For secretion, any suitable secretion signal can be used, and many are known in the art.

    [0067] In embodiments, the binding partners can be part of an ADC and therefore the binding partners comprise a drug. The drug can include, but is not necessarily limited to, any suitable chemotherapeutic agent. In embodiments, the ADC comprises a binding partner and a chemotherapeutic agent that is an anti-microtubule agent, an alkylating agent, or a DNA minor groove binding agent. In embodiments, the chemotherapeutic agent comprises a maytansinoid, a dolastatin, an auristatin drug analog, or a cryptophycin. In embodiments, the chemotherapeutic agent is a duocarmycin derivative, or an antibiotic, such as an enediyne antibiotic, or pyrolobenodiazepine (PBD), including dimers thereof. In embodiments, the chemotherapeutic agent is an enzyme inhibitor, such as a topoisomerase or polymerase inhibitor. In embodiments, the chemotherapeutic agent comprises doxorubicin, or a metal-containing compound, such as a platinum-containing compound, non-limiting examples of which include cisplatin, carboplatin or oxaliplatin. In embodiments, the ADC comprises a binding partner described herein, and any drug that is described in Barf and Kaptein, dx.doi.org/10.1021/jm3003203, J. Med. Chem. 2012, 55, 6243-6262, or in Wilson et al., dx.doi.org/10.1021/jm400224q, J. Med. Chem. 2013, 56, 7463-7476, or Lambert and Morris, Adv Ther (2017) 34:1015-1035, from which the descriptions of drugs for use as components as ADCs is incorporated herein by reference. In embodiments, the binding partner is conjugated to or otherwise includes a cytokine, including but not necessarily limited to an interleukin, including but not limited to IL-2 and IL-12, or an interferon (IFN), to thereby provide a cytokine conjugate.

    [0068] For production of binding partners, any suitable expression system may be used. In general, polynucleotides encoding binding partners are used to express the binding partners in any suitable cell system, non-limiting embodiments of which include NS0 murine myeloma cells, human cell lines, and Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. In embodiments, the disclosure provides a polynucleotide that can selectively hybridize to a polynucleotide encoding any CDR or combination of CDRs described herein. In embodiments, the polynucleotide selectively hybridizes to a polynucleotide encoding a heavy chain CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 of any described binding partner. In embodiments, the polynucleotide selectively hybridizes to a polynucleotide encoding a light chain CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 of any described binding partner. In embodiments, the polynucleotide selectively hybridizes to a polynucleotide encoding CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 of a heavy and light chain of any described binding partner.

    [0069] In embodiments, a binding partner described herein may be a component of a fusion protein. In embodiments, such as for a binding partner that is produced as a fusion protein, a peptide linker may be used. In embodiments, the peptide linker comprises any self-cleaving signal. In embodiments, the self-cleaving signal may be present in the same open reading frame (ORF) as the ORF that encodes the binding partner. A self-cleaving amino acid sequence is typically about 18-22 amino acids long. Any suitable sequence can be used, non-limiting examples of which include: T2A (EGRGSLLTCGDVEENPGP (SEQ ID NO: 7)); P2A (ATNFSLKQAGDVENPGP (SEQ ID NO: 8)); E2A (QCTNYALKLAGDVESNPGP (SEQ ID NO: 9)) and F2A (VKQTLNFDLKLAGDVESNPGP (SEQ ID NO: 10)).

    [0070] To the extent any segment of a protein comprising a binding partner described herein was a component of a library, including but not necessarily limited to a phage display library or a yeast surface display library, the disclosure includes the proviso that the binding partner may be free of any segment of the library that comprises a bacteriophage or yeast amino acid sequence, including but not limited to phage coat protein or a yeast host protein, including but not limited to Aga2. Thus, in certain embodiments, the binding partner may be present in a fusion protein, but the fusion protein does not comprise bacteriophage coat protein. In embodiments, any binding partner described herein may be free of any of pIII phage coat protein, or any part of Ml, fd filamentous phage, T4, T7, or ? phage protein.

    [0071] In embodiments, a binding partner of this disclosure comprises a detectable label, which may be used for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. For example, a detectable label can be used for localization of the binding partner for pathology and/or in vivo imaging approaches. In embodiments, a binding partner is conjugated to any of a variety of radioactive agents, including but not limited to a highly radioactive atom, such as In111, At211, I131, I125, Y90, Re186, Re188, Sm153, Bi212, P32, Pb212, and radioactive isotopes of Lu. In particular embodiments, such as for imaging, the binding partner may be conjugated to a radioactive atom for scintigraphic approaches, for example Tc99m (metastable technetium-99), 1123, or a spin label for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging (also known as magnetic resonance imaging, or MRI), such as 1123, 1131, 1124, F19, C13, N15, O17 or Gadlinium (III) or Manganese (II). In embodiments, the radioactive agent is suitable for use in CAT scan or PET imaging. In embodiments, Indium111, Technetium99 or Iodine131 can be used for planar scans or single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). Positron emitting labels such as Fluorine19 Iodine 123 and Iodine 124 can be used in positron emission tomography. Paramagnetic ions such as Gadlinium (III) or Manganese (II) can used in magnetic resonance imaging MRI. In embodiments, the described radioactive isotopes that are attached to a described binding partner can also be used in therapeutic approaches. In embodiments, radioactive agents or isotopes include alpha-emitting radionuclides. In embodiments, radioactive agents or isotopes include beta-emitting radionuclides. In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides an antibody of the present technology conjugated to a diagnostic or therapeutic agent. The diagnostic agent may comprise a radioactive or non-radioactive label, a contrast agent (such as for magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography or ultrasound), and the radioactive label can be a gamma-, beta-, alpha-, Auger electron-, or positron-emitting isotope. A diagnostic agent is a molecule which is administered conjugated to an antibody moiety, i.e., antibody or antibody fragment, or subfragment, and is useful in diagnosing or detecting a disease by locating the cells containing the antigen.

    [0072] Any binding partner described herein may be fully or partially humanized. Techniques for humanization of antibodies are known in the art and can be adapted for use in the present disclosure. In embodiments, humanization may be performed, for example, by CDR-grafting. In embodiments, for humanization or to otherwise improve a characteristic of the binding partners, one or more amino acids in a variable region can be changed. In embodiments, one or more amino acids in a framework region can be changed.

    [0073] The disclosure includes binding partners for use in diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. For therapeutic approaches, in certain embodiments, binding partners may be delivered as mRNA or DNA polynucleotides that encode the binding partners. It is considered that administering a DNA or RNA encoding any binding partner described herein is also a method of delivering such binding partners to an individual or one or more cells. Methods of delivering DNA and RNAs encoding proteins are known in the art and can be adapted to deliver the binding partners, given the benefit of the present disclosure. In embodiments, one or more expression vectors are used and comprise viral vectors. Thus, in embodiments, a viral expression vector is used. Viral expression vectors may be used as naked polynucleotides, or may comprise any of viral particles, including but not limited to defective interfering particles or other replication defective viral constructs, and virus-like particles. In embodiments, the expression vector comprises a modified viral polynucleotide, such as from an adenovirus, a herpesvirus, or a retrovirus. In embodiments, a retroviral vector adapted from a murine Moloney leukemia virus (MLV) or a lentiviral vector may be used, such as a lentiviral vector adapted from human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1).

    [0074] In an embodiment, an oncolytic viral vector is used. Oncolytic viruses (OVs), including vaccinia (OVV), mediate anticancer effects by both direct oncolysis and stimulation of innate immune responses through production of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and the presence of virus-derived pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), leading to increased type I interferon production. Additionally, OVV-mediated oncolysis may facilitate the direct acquisition of tumor-derived antigens by host antigen-presenting cells within the tumor microenvironment, thereby leading to improved T cell priming as well as coordination of the effector phase of antitumor immune responses. In alternative embodiments, a recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector may be used. In certain embodiments, the expression vector is a self-complementary adeno-associated virus (scAAV).

    [0075] Pharmaceutical formulations containing binding partners are included in the disclosure and can be prepared by mixing them with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include solvents, dispersion media, isotonic agents, and the like. The carrier can be liquid, semi-solid, e.g. pastes, or solid carriers. Examples of carriers include water, saline solutions or other buffers (such as phosphate, citrate buffers), oil, alcohol, proteins (such as serum albumin, gelatin), carbohydrates (such as monosaccharides, disaccharides, and other carbohydrates including glucose, sucrose, trehalose, mannose, mannitol, sorbitol or dextrins), gel, lipids, liposomes, resins, porous matrices, binders, fillers, coatings, stabilizers, preservatives, liposomes, antioxidants, chelating agents such as EDTA, salt forming counter-ions such as sodium; non-ionic surfactants such as TWEEN, PLURONICS or polyethylene glycol (PEG), or combinations thereof. In embodiments, a liposomal formulation comprising one or more binding partners is provided. Liposomal formulations include but are not limited to liposomal nanoparticles.

    [0076] In embodiments, an effective amount of one or more binding partners is administered to an individual in need thereof. In embodiments, an effective amount is an amount that reduces one or more signs or symptoms of a disease and/or reduces the severity of the disease. An effective amount may also inhibit or prevent the onset of a disease or a disease relapse. A precise dosage can be selected by the individual physician in view of the patient to be treated. Dosage and administration can be adjusted to provide sufficient levels of binding partner to maintain the desired effect. Additional factors that may be taken into account include the severity and type of the disease state, age, weight, and gender of the patient, desired duration of treatment, method of administration, time and frequency of administration, drug combination(s), reaction sensitivities, and/or tolerance/response to therapy.

    [0077] Binding partners and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the binding partners can be administered to an individual in need thereof using any suitable route, examples of which include intravenous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, intracerobrospinal, subcutaneous, intra-articular, intrasynovial, oral, topical, or inhalation routes, depending on the particular condition being treated. The compositions may be administered parenterally or enterically. The compositions may be introduced as a single administration or as multiple administrations or may be introduced in a continuous manner over a period of time. For example, the administration(s) can be a pre-specified number of administrations or daily, weekly, or monthly administrations, which may be continuous or intermittent, as may be therapeutically indicated.

    [0078] In embodiments, the individual in need of a composition of this disclosure has been diagnosed with or is suspected of having cancer. In embodiments, the cancer is a solid tumor or a hematologic malignancy. In embodiments, the cancer is renal cell carcinoma, breast cancer, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer, lung cancer, liver cancer, ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, colon cancer, esophageal cancer, glioma, glioblastoma or another brain cancer, stomach cancer, bladder cancer, testicular cancer, head and neck cancer, melanoma or another skin cancer, any sarcoma, including but not limited to fibrosarcoma, angiosarcoma, osteosarcoma, and rhabdomyosarcoma, and any blood cancer, including all types of leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma. In embodiments, the individual is in need of treatment for any pre-neoplastic disorder, including myelodysplastic syndromes or myeloproliferative neoplasms. In embodiments, a described binding partner is used prophylactically for any of the described types of cancer.

    [0079] In embodiments, administering one or more binding partners, including but not necessarily in a pharmaceutical formulation, to an individual in need thereof, exhibits an improved activity relative to a control. In an embodiment, the control comprises different antibodies, a different form of the same antibodies/binding partner, or antibodies/binding partners that are delivered without adding additional agents. In embodiments, a binding partner described herein provides for improved antibody dependent cell cytotoxicity (ADCC), or for internalization (such as for an ADC), relative to a control. In embodiments, a control protein or peptide does not comprise the covalently linked molecule. The control peptide may comprise the same sequence as the experimental peptide, or if the experimental peptide comprises a mutation the control peptide may comprise the wild type sequence.

    [0080] A composition of this disclosure, such as a pharmaceutical formulation, can contain only one, or more than one binding partner, and thus combinations of different binding partners are included. Likewise, one or more binding partners can be combined with any other therapeutic agent, non-limiting examples of which include conventional chemotherapeutic agents, and modulators of T-cell costimulatory molecules, often referred to as immune checkpoint inhibitors. T-cell costimulatory molecules are known in the art (PMID 30115704), including, but not limited to, CTLA4, PD-1, PD-L1, LAG3, TIM3, TIGIT, VISTA, B7-1, B7-2, PD-L2, LSECtin, Galectin-9, CEACAM-1, CD155, CD112, CD28, ICOS, ICOSL, OX40, OX40L, GITR, GITRL, 4-1BB, 4-1BBL, CD40, CD40L, CD27, and CD70. Thus, the disclosure includes combination therapy using one or more described binding partners and any of modulators of T-cell costimulatory molecules, including but not limited to CTLA-4 inhibitors, PD-1 inhibitors and PD-L1 inhibitors. As non-limiting examples, anti-PD-1 agents include Pembrolizumab and Nivolumab. Anti-PD-L1 examples include Avelumab and Atezolizumab. An anti-CTLA-4 example is Ipilimumab. The binding partners may also be combined with any form of adoptive immunotherapy.

    [0081] In embodiments, the disclosure comprises administering to an individual in need thereof one or more binding partners and at least one additional agent to provide an additive effect, or a greater than additive effect such as a synergistic result. In embodiments, the described effect comprises inhibition of cancer growth, inhibition of metastasis, or other beneficial effect. An additive effect or synergistic effect may also be achieved by using a combination of at least two described binding partners.

    [0082] Various techniques have been developed for the production of binding partners and are included in the scope of this disclosure. In embodiments, the binding partners are produced by host cells by way of recombinant expression vectors. The present disclosure includes all polynucleotide sequences encoding the amino acid sequences described herein, expression vectors comprising such polynucleotide sequences, and in vitro cell cultures comprising such expression vectors. In embodiments, the cell cultures include prokaryotic cells or eukaryotic cells. In embodiments, the cell cultures are mammalian cells. In embodiments, the cells are CHO cells. In embodiments, the cells are HEK293 cells and their derivatives. Kits comprising the binding partners, and/or cell cultures expressing the binding partners, are provided by this disclosure. In general, the kits comprise one or more sealed containers that contain the binding partners, or cells expressing them. Instructions for using the binding partners for therapeutic and/or diagnostic purposes can be included in the kits.

    [0083] Cells that are modified to express any described binding partner include but are not necessarily limited CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, Natural Killer T cells, ?? T cells, and cells that are progenitors of T cells, such as hematopoietic stem cells or other lymphoid progenitor cells, such as immature thymocytes (double-negative CD4?CD8?) cells, or double-positive thymocytes (CD4+CD8+). In embodiments, the progenitor cells comprise markers, such as CD34, CD117 (c-kit) and CD90 (Thy-1). In embodiments, the modified cells comprise macrophages. The described modified cells may be used therapeutically or prophylactically.

    [0084] In embodiments, the disclosure provides for generation of a binding partner. This approach comprises providing a plurality of distinct binding partners, exposing the plurality of distinct (e.g., different) binding partners to one or a diversity of peptide conjugates, and selecting binding partners that bind with specificity to the peptide conjugates that contain the covalently conjugated drug or other molecule, but do not bind to the protein or peptide that does not comprise the covalently conjugated drug or other molecule. As described above, this approach can be performed on a manner that either does, or does not, require the amino acid sequence of the protein or peptide to be part of the antigenic determinant. The described approach can be used to select binding partners that are specific for presentation of a peptide conjugate as a component of any MHC complex.

    [0085] In embodiments, binding partners described herein and as otherwise will be apparent by those skilled in the art, can be used to determine whether or not a particular drug or other molecule forms a covalent interaction with a protein or peptide. Thus, the disclosure provides for exposing protein or peptide substrates to drug candidates and using the binding partners described herein or as identified as described herein to determine whether or not the drug forms a covalent interaction with the pertinent substrate. This determination can be made based on whether or not the binding partner binds to the protein or peptide that has been covalently attached to the drug. This approach can be used in lieu of currently available techniques, such as mass spectroscopy and the like.

    [0086] In embodiments, binding partners of this disclosure may be used in any immunological diagnostic test, including but not limited to the imaging approaches described above. In embodiments, one or more binding partners described herein can be used as a component in any form of, for example, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) assay, including but not limited to a direct ELISA, a sandwich ELISA, a competitive ELISA, and a reverse ELISA. In embodiments, one or more binding partners described herein can also be incorporated into an immunodiagnostic device, such as a microfluidic device, a lateral flow device, and the like. The binding partners may also be used in, for example, Western blots and immunoprecipitation assays.

    [0087] The following Examples are intended to illustrate but not limit the disclosure. In embodiments, antibodies described in Example 3 have different properties relative to those described in Example 1. Other differences between binding partners will be apparent from the Examples and their accompanying figures. The different properties include, but are not necessarily limited to, specificity for a drug conjugate displayed in the context of a specific MHC type. Thus, binding partners may exhibit different binding partners when a peptide conjugates is in a particular MHC complex.

    Example 1

    [0088] This Example provides a description of the identification and characterization of binding partners that bind with specificity to ARS-1620, which forms a covalent interaction with KRAS.sup.G12C.

    [0089] In particular, FIG. 1 demonstrates phage ELISA of phage-displayed antibody clones.

    [0090] Binding to KRAS.sup.G12C-GDP and KRAS.sup.G12C-GDP-ARS-1620 conjugate was determined. Buffer denotes binding signal to the wells that did not contain KRAS.sup.G12C. From these candidates, four different antibodies were identified. Among these, 12C-ARS-Fab59 showed high affinity binding to KRASG12C-GDP covalently bound to ARS-1620. The results are presented in FIG. 2, which shows 12C-ARS Fab59 binding to KRAS.sup.G12C in the GTP?S- or GDP-bound nucleotide state with or without ARS-1620, as characterized by the bead binding assay (PMID: 33358997). FIG. 3 also demonstrates that 12C-ARS-Fab59 specifically binds KRAS.sup.G12C-GDP conjugated to ARS-1620. In particular, 12C-ARS-Fab binding to KRAS.sup.G12C (left) or WT RAS isoforms (right) in the GTP?S- or GDP-bound nucleotide state with or without ARS-1620 conjugation, is shown as indicated.

    [0091] FIG. 4 demonstrates the use of 12C-ARS-Fab59 to measure ARS-1620/KRAS.sup.G12C adducts by pull-down assays from lysates prepared from cell lines. To produce the data shown in FIG. 4, immunoblots were performed on whole cell lysates and 12C-ARS Fab-pull-downs (PD) from RAS-less MEFs reconstituted with the indicated KRAS mutants (4A) and from KCP (Kras.sup.G12C; TP53.sup.R172H; Pdx-Cre) mouse pancreas cancer cells (4B), treated in the presence or absence of ARS-1620. FIG. 4C shows whole cell lysates and 12C-ARS Fab pull-downs (PD) from H358 and MIAPaCa-2 cells, treated as indicated, which were subjected to SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting with anti-pan RAS and anti-ERK2 antibodies, the latter as a loading control. FIG. 4D shows ARS-adduct formation in samples from 4C, quantified by LC/MS-MS assay. ARS-1620 and SHP099 concentrations were 10 ?M in all panels.

    [0092] FIG. 5 shows that 12C-ARS-Fab59 can be used to measure the engagement of ARS-1620 to mutant KRAS by pull-down assay with lysates prepared from animal tissues. In particular, in FIGS. 5A-B, anti-pan RAS and anti-ERK2 (loading control) immunoblots of lysates and 12C-ARS Fab pull-downs (PD) from LSL-KRAS.sup.G12C-Tp53.sup.R270H (A) and LSL-KRAS.sup.G12C (B) tumors after 3 days of oral gavage with ARS-1620 (200 mg/kg/d) alone or with the SHP2 inhibitor SHP099 (75 mg/kg/d) are shown.

    [0093] To produce the foregoing results, the following materials and methods were used.

    RAS Nucleotide Exchange and Generation of ARS-1620-Conjugated RAS

    [0094] Purified RAS (1-174) proteins containing a 6?HIS-tag (SEQ ID NO: 13) and an AVI-tag (1), used in the binding experiments and phage display selections, were prepared by diluting stock protein (typically containing 20-100 ?M RAS) 25-fold with 20 mM Tris-Cl buffer pH 7.5 containing 5 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM DTT, and 1 mM (final concentration) of nucleotide (GDP or GTP?S). For generating ARS-bound RAS, ARS-1620 (final concentration: 100 ?M) was added during the nucleotide exchange reaction of RAS along with GDP. Samples were incubated at 30? C. for 30 minutes. MgCl.sub.2 was then added to a final concentration of 20 mM to quench the nucleotide exchange reaction, and the solution was incubated on ice for at least 5 minutes prior to use.

    Selection of Phage-Displayed Antibody Fragments Against ARS-Bound KRAS.SUP.G12C

    [0095] General procedures for the development of Fabs against purified protein targets have been described (2). Four rounds of phage display library selection were performed, with biotinylated KRAS(G12C)-GDP+ARS-1620 at 100 nM, 100 nM, 50 nM, and 20 nM in the first, second, third and fourth rounds, respectively. The first round recovered clones that bound to KRAS.sup.G12C-GDP+ARS-1620; the second round recovered clones that bound to KRAS.sup.G12C-GDP+ARS-1620, previously pre-cleared with KRAS.sup.G12C-GDP; the third round recovered clones that bound to KRAS.sup.G12C-GDP+ARS-1620, previously pre-cleared with KRAS.sup.G12C-GTP. The final round recovered clones that bound to KRAS.sup.G12C-GDP+ARS-1620, previously precleared with KRAS.sup.G12C-GDP. Phage captured on beads were eluted in 100 ?l of 0.1 M Gly-HCl (pH 2.1) and immediately neutralized with 35 ?l of 1M Tris-Cl (pH 8). Recovered clones were analyzed by phage ELISA and DNA sequencing, as described (2).

    Bead Binding Assays

    [0096] General methods have been previously described (3). Fifty microliters (50 ?l) of M280 streptavidin beads (Thermo Fisher) were incubated with 100 ?l of biotinylated 12C-ARS Fab, at 30 nM or 4 nM. Ligand-free streptavidin on the beads was then blocked by adding excess biotin. Beads were washed with supplemented TBST (50 mM Tris pH7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 20 mM MgCl.sub.2, 0.1 mM DTT, 0.05% Tween-20) and dispensed into wells of a 96-well U bottom plate (Greiner). Beads were then incubated at 1:1 ratio with purified RAS proteins diluted in supplemented TBS (50 mM Tris pH7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 20 mM MgCl.sub.2, 0.1 mM DTT) at 2? the concentration stated for the titration curve for 30 minutes at room temperature. Beads containing bound Fab and RAS were transferred to the wells of a 96-well filter plate (Millipore, MSHVN4550) and washed twice with supplemented TBST before incubating with Neutravidin-Dylight 650 (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 30 minutes at 4? C. The beads were washed twice with supplemented TBST before resuspension in supplemented TBS for flow cytometry using an iQue screener (Sartorius). The median signal intensity in the Dylight650 channel for the 75-95th percentile population was taken as binding signal to the target. K.sub.D was calculated by fitting the binding signals to a 1:1 binding model.

    Expression, Purification, and Characterization of Recombinant Fabs

    [0097] Phage display vectors were converted into Fab expression vectors that contain a substrate tag for the biotin ligase BirA at the carboxyl terminus of the heavy chain. Fabs were expressed in E. coli strain 55244 (ATCC), and were purified by protein G affinity chromatography, followed by cation exchange chromatography, as described (2). Purified Fabs were biotinylated in vitro using purified BirA. Approximately 2-5 mg of purified Fabs were obtained routinely from a 1 L bacterial culture. SDS-PAGE showed that Fabs were >90% pure.

    KRAS.SUP.G12C.-Adduct Assays

    [0098] Cells cultured in 6-well plates were treated with ARS-1620 and/or SHP099 as described in the Figures. Cells were lysed by incubation in GTPase lysis buffer (25 mM Tris-Cl pH7.2, 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl2, 1% NP-40 and 5% glycerol), supplemented with protease inhibitors and phosphatase inhibitors on ice for 15 minutes immediately before analysis. After centrifugation for 15 minutes at 15,000 g, supernatants were collected and incubated with streptavidin (SA) agarose resin (Thermo Fisher Scientific) for 1 hour at 4? C., followed by a brief centrifugation, to decrease non-specific binding to the resin. Pre-cleared lysates were incubated with biotinylated 12C-ARS-Fab bound to SA agarose for 1.5 hours at 4? C. while rotating. Agarose beads were then washed twice with GTPase lysis buffer, boiled in 1?SDS-PAGE sample buffer, and subjected to immunoblotting with a pan-RAS antibody (Millipore).

    Immunoblotting

    [0099] Whole cell lysates were generated in modified radioimmunoprecipitation (RIPA) buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 2 mM EDTA, 1% NP-40, and 0.1% SDS, without sodium deoxycholate), supplemented with protease (40 ?g/ml PMSF, 2 ?g/ml antipain, 2 ?g/ml pepstatin A, 20 ?g/ml leupeptin, and 20 ?g/ml aprotinin) and phosphatase (10 mM NaF, 1 mM Na.sub.3VO.sub.4, 10 mM ?-glycerophosphate, and 10 mM sodium pyrophosphate) inhibitors. After clarification of debris by centrifugation in a microfuge, samples were quantified with the DC Protein Assay Kit (Bio-Rad). Total lysate protein was resolved by standard SDS-PAGE and transferred in IX transfer buffer and 15% methanol. Membranes were incubated with their respective primary and secondary antibodies labeled with IRDye (680 nm and 800 nm) and then visualized by using a LICOR device. Monoclonal pan-RAS antibody (clone Ab-3; OP40-100UG; 1:1000) was obtained from Millipore, and mouse monoclonal ERK-2 (D2: sc-1647; 1:1000) was purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnology.

    LC/MS-MS Assay for ARS Binding to KRAS.SUP.G12C

    [0100] Cells (5?10.sup.5) were treated with the indicated compounds for the times listed and subsequently washed twice with PBS and prepared for protein extraction and LC/MS-MS analysis, as described (4). LC/MS-MS was performed at the PCC Proteomics Shared Resource at NYU School of Medicine.

    [0101] Similar methods were used to obtain the results described in Example 2.

    [0102] The antibodies described in this Example are as follows:

    Example 2

    [0110] This Example provides a description of binding partners that bind with specificity to AMG510 that is covalently linked to peptides.

    [0111] To produce the results described in this Example, some methods as described in Example 1 were adapted. For this Example, AMG510 (purchased from Selleckchem) was conjugated to a peptide corresponding to KRAS(G12C) residues 4-18:

    TABLE-US-00004 (SEQIDNO:22) H2N-YKLVVVGACGVGKSA(dPEG4)(K-longchainBiotin)- amide

    [0112] and a poly-Ser peptide containing a central Cys:

    TABLE-US-00005 (SEQIDNO:23) H2N-SSSSCSSSSW(K-longchainBiotin)-amide

    [0113] A human single-chain Fv yeast-display library was sorted using these peptides as targets by using established methods.sup.(1-3). After rounds of library sorting, individual clones were screened. We developed three antibodies that bound to AMG510 conjugated to both KRAS(G12C) and poly-Ser peptide (FIG. 6). Consequently, these antibodies recognize predominantly the AMG510 moiety but not the peptide moiety of the conjugates. Additionally, we developed other clones that are selective to AMG510 conjugated to the KRAS(G12C) peptide.

    [0114] One such clone, P2AMR-1 was then produced in the format of human IgG1 and further characterized. It bound to AMG510 conjugated to the KRAS(G12C) peptide with high apparent affinity in a bead binding assay (FIG. 7)). The antibody clone also bound tightly to AMG510 conjugated a shorter KRAS(G12C) peptide, VVGACGVGK (SEQ ID NO: 1), in the context of HLA-A*03:01 (BioLegend Flex-T) (FIG. 8).

    [0115] P2AMR-1 detected AMG510 conjugated to KRAS(G12C) peptide that had been added to Raji cells, which are known to express HLA-A*03:01. By contrast, P2AMR-1 did not detect KRAS(wild type) peptide loaded in the same manner (FIG. 16). In addition, P2AMR-1 did not bind to AMG510 conjugated to the KRAS(G12C) peptide added to cells that are not known to express HLA-A*03:01, e.g., MV4-11 and Expi293 cells (FIG. 16).

    [0116] These results demonstrate that that the presently provided antibodies, which represent binding partners of this disclosure, recognize the AMG510 moiety in a manner agnostic of the conjugation partner, and they suggest that our antibodies and their derivatives can be used to identify cells that present AMG510-KRAS(G12C) peptide conjugate on MHC molecules on the cell surface.

    [0117] More generally, these results suggest methods for targeting any cells that harbor intracellular targets that form covalent adducts with small molecule ligands.

    [0118] This example demonstrates the following non-limiting binding partners, restricted to AMG510 covalent modifications of the described substrates. CDR residues (Kabat scheme) are shown in bold.

    Example 3

    [0124] This Example describes antibodies that bind to peptide-drug conjugates, but only in the context of specific MHC display of the described peptide-drug conjugates. The antibodies were produced as follows.

    Antigen Preparation

    [0125] KRAS(G12C) peptides ((H2N-VVGACGVGK-OH (SEQ ID NO: 1) and H2N-VVVGACGVGK-OH (SEQ ID NO: 2)) were reacted with AMG510 (Selleckchem) and loaded onto Flex-T HLA-A*03:01 and Flex-T HLA-A*11:01 (produced by Biolegend), or onto HLA-A*03:01 and HLA-A*11:01 produced in house. KRAS(WT) peptide ((H2N-VVGAGGVGK-OH (SEQ ID NO: 29)) was loaded onto the HLA molecules in the same manner. EGFR peptide (H2N-QLMPFGCLL-OH (SEQ ID NO: 30)) was reacted with Osimertinib (Selleckchem) and loaded onto Flex-T HLA-A*02:01 or HLA-A*02:01 produced in house. As a control, the same peptide was reacted with beta-mercaptoethanol and loaded onto the HLA molecule. BTK peptide (H2N-YMANGCLLNY-OH (SEQ ID NO: 31)) was reacted with Ibrutinib (Selleckchem) and loaded onto Flex-T HLA-A*01:01 or HLA-A*01:01 produced in house. As a control, the same peptide was reacted with beta-mercaptoethanol and loaded onto the HLA molecule. The peptide-loaded HLA mixtures prepared with Flex-T HLA proteins were used without further purification. The peptide-loaded HLA mixtures prepared with HLA samples prepared in house were further purified using size-exclusion chromatography with a Superdex S200 column.

    Antibody Phage-Display Library Sorting

    [0126] Sorting of an antibody phage-display library was performed as described previously.sup.(1). Briefly, a phage-display library was first sorted with all four antigens at 100 nM in the first round, followed by sorting with a single antigen at 100, 50, and 20 nM in the second, third, and fourth rounds, respectively. To enrich for clones with the desired specificity, counterselection was performed using KRAS(WT) peptide-loaded MHC molecules or beta-mercaptoethanol-treated peptide-loaded MHC molecules in the second, third, and fourth rounds.

    [0127] Binding of individual phage clones were tested using the multiplex bead binding assay.sup.(2).

    Antibody Yeast-Display Library Sorting and Clone Characterization

    [0128] Display of antibody clones in the form of single-chain Fv (scFv) on the yeast surface, library sorting using fluorescence-activated cell sorting, and characterization of individual clones were performed essentially as described previously (Hattori et al. PMID 23955773; Cao et al. PMID 17406305).

    Deep Mutational Scanning

    [0129] Deep mutational scanning was performed following general procedures published previously (PMID 32841599). A yeast-display library, in the scFv format, contained variants in which a single position was diversified with the NNK codon. A yeast display libray was subjected to FACS using an antigen of interest to enrich a pool of clones that bound the antigen and a pool of clones that did not bind the antigen. The DNA sequences of the enriched pools were determined, and amino acid substitutions were deduced.

    Antibody Production

    [0130] The genes encoding selected antibody clones were transferred from the phage-display vector to IgG expression vectors (pFUSEss-CHIg-hG1 and pFUSE2ss-CLIg-hK, InvivoGen), and IgG proteins were produced using the ExpiCHO cell line (Thermo Fisher) and purified using a Protein Capture Devices with Protein A (GORE).

    [0131] Data presented in this Example relates to FIGS. 9-15, 17, which provide the following information:

    [0132] FIG. 9 provides a cartoon representation of a concept of the disclosure referred to as HapImmune. The numbers 1-7 denote relevant steps. 1. A covalent inhibitor is administered, and it enters the cell harboring the target protein. 2. The inhibitor binds the target and forms a covalent bond with the target. 3 and 4. As a part of natural protein turnover (or induced protein degradation in the case of a PROTAC), the target-drug conjugate is degraded by the proteosome system. As a result, peptides with the conjugated drug are produced. 5. A peptide conjugate is incorporated into a compatible MHC molecule. 6. The MHC/peptide-drug conjugate complex translocates to the surface of the cell. A HapImmune antibody recognizes the complex. 7. The surface bound antibody recruits an immune effector cell, such as an NK cell, which in turn initiates cell killing activities. Multiple modalities are envisioned for effecting cell killing activities, including ADCC, ADCP, CDC, BiTE, CAR-T, CAR-NK, ADC, and radioisotope conjugate, but they are not explicitly depicted here.

    [0133] FIG. 10 shows data from development of antibodies that bind MHC/peptide-drug conjugate complexes. (A) Multiplex bead-binding assay (MBBA).sup.(1) of phages displaying different antibody clones. For each phage clone, binding to a total of five antigens presented on beads was tested: HLA-A*03:01 in complex with the KRAS(G12C) peptide conjugated with AMG510 (denoted as HLA-A*03:01_RAS-AMG510 in the figure); HLA-A*03:01 in complex with the KRAS(wild type) peptide (denoted as HLA-A*03:01_WTRAS); HLA-A*11:01 in complex with the KRAS(G12C) peptide conjugated with AMG510 (denoted as HLA-A*11:01_RAS-AMG510); HLA-A*11:01 in complex with the KRAS(wild type) peptide (denoted as HLA-A*11:01_WTRAS); beads presenting no antigen (denoted as No target). (B) MBBA assay of phages displaying different antibody clones to: HLA-A*01:01 in complex with the BTK peptide conjugated with Ibrutinib (denoted as HLA-A*01:01_BTK-Ibrutinib in the figure); HLA-A*01:01 in complex with the BTK peptide conjugated with beta-mercaptoethanol (denoted as HLA-A*01:01_BTK-Dme); beads presenting no antigen (denoted as No target). (C) MBBA assay of phages displaying different antibody clones to: HLA-A*02:01 in complex with the EGFR peptide conjugated with Osimertinib (denoted as HLA-A*02:01_EGFR-Osimertinib in the figure); HLA-A*02:01 in complex with the EGFR peptide conjugated with beta-mercaptoethanol (denoted as HLA-A*02:01_EGFR-?me); beads presenting no antigen (denoted as No target).

    [0134] FIG. 11 shows results from binding titration using the multiplex bead-binding assay (MBBA) of purified antibodies targeted to the KRAS(G12C)-AMG510 conjugate. Clone names are shown over each graph. Antigen nomenclature is described in FIG. 10. The left column shows binding data with HLA-A*03:01 complexes, whereas the right column shows data with HLA-A*11:01 complexes. Apparent dissociation constant (K.sub.D) values were determined using nonlinear least-squared fitting of a 1:1 binding function. The data for the wild-type RAS peptide complexes and for the no target were all close to the baseline and overlap, and thus their apparent K.sub.D values were not determined. Data shown here are from triplicate measurements. Error bars are within the size of the symbols.

    [0135] FIG. 12 demonstrates that binding of antibodies to the drug-peptide conjugate in complex with an MHC was not affected by the presence of the free drug. MBBA binding signals of select AMR series antibodies to HLA-A*03:01 in complex with the KRAS(G12C) peptide conjugated with AMG510 in the absence (the white bars) and presence (the gray bars) of 10 ?M free AMG510 are shown. The antibody concentrations were adjusted to give sub-saturating signals and are shown in parentheses. Data shown here are from triplicate measurements.

    [0136] FIG. 13 shows results from binding titrations using the multiplex bead-binding assay (MBBA) of purified antibodies targeted to the BTK-Ibrutinib conjugate. Clone names are shown over each graph. Antigen nomenclature is described in FIG. 10. Apparent dissociation constant (K.sub.D) values were determined using nonlinear least-squared fitting of a 1:1 binding function. The data for the beta-mercaptoethanol-conjugated peptide in complex with HLA-A*01:01 and for the no target were all close to the baseline and overlap, and thus their apparent K.sub.D values were not determined. Data shown here are from triplicate measurements. Error bars are within the size of the symbols.

    [0137] FIG. 14 shows results from binding titrations of purified antibodies to the KRAS(G12C)-AMG510 conjugate presented by endogenous MHC molecules on the cell surface. Raji cells were first incubated with the KRAS(G12C)-AMG510 conjugate or the KRAS(wild type) peptide, and excess conjugate and peptide were washed away. Surface-bound antibody levels detected using a fluorescently labeled secondary antibody are shown as a function of IgG concentration used for staining. Apparent dissociation constant (K.sub.D) values were determined using nonlinear least-squared fitting of a 1:1 binding function. Data shown here are from triplicate measurements.

    [0138] FIG. 15 shows results from an antibody binding to a KRAS(G12C)-expressing cell line pretreated with AMG510. The non-small cell lung cancer cell line H358 was incubated with AMG510 for 2 days and then stained with antibodies targeting the KRAS(G12C) peptide-AMG510 conjugate or an isotype control, followed by detection with a secondary antibody. (A) Flow cytometry histograms. (B) Quantification of the median fluorescence intensity of H358 cells treated with or without AMG510. The antibodies used are indicated along the horizontal axis. (C) Quantification of the median fluorescence intensity of H358 cells and HEK293T cells (a negative control) treated with or without AMG510 and stained with the AMRA3-7 antibody.

    [0139] FIG. 16 is related to Example 2 and shows binding of P2AMR-1 IgG to cells preincubated with the KRAS(G12C) peptide-AMG510 conjugate, KRAS(wild type) peptide, or no peptide. The antibody was precomplexed with a dye-labeled secondary antibody in order to enhance the effective binding (avidity). The antibody bound to the Raji cells that express HLA-A*03:01 when the cells were incubated with the conjugate.

    [0140] FIG. 17 shows results from binding of purified antibodies in the IgG format to the indicated drug-peptide/MHC complexes as measured using the multiplex bead binding assay (MBBA).

    [0141] FIGS. 18 and 19 are discussed in Example 4.

    [0142] FIG. 20 shows results from binding titration curves of AMR-A3-7 and AMR-A3-7D displayed on the yeast surface. Binding to HLA-A*03:01 presenting AMG510 conjugated to the Cys residue in the 9mer and 10mer RAS(G12C) peptides, VVGACGVGK (SEQ ID NO: 1) and VVVGACGVGK (SEQ ID NO: 2), respectively, is shown.

    [0143] FIGS. 23 and 24 show results from deep mutational scanning of CDR-L3 and CDR-H3 of AMR-A3-7D and OEA2-5, respectively.

    [0144] Specific and non-limiting examples of antibody sequences that bind in an MHC-drug conjugate-specific manner are as follows:

    Example 4

    [0153] This Example demonstrates single-chain Diabody (scDb) formats of Hapimmune antibodies and their effectiveness in cell killing. Data from non-limiting embodiments are presented in FIGS. 18 and 19. The results are summarized as in the brief descriptions of FIGS. 18 and 19.

    [0154] To obtain the results for FIG. 18, Raji cells and T2 cells (ATCC) were cultured in RPMI supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and penicillin/streptomycin. The cytotoxic effect of scDbs was measured by following the protocol published previously (ref: PMID 26813960). Briefly, Raji cells or T2 cells were stained with carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CSFE, ThermoFisher, 65-0850-84), then incubated with the final 10 ?M KRAS(G12C)-AMG510 conjugate or 1 ?M EGFR-Osimertinib in the presence of 10 ?g/mL human beta-2 microglobulin for 4 hr. The cells were harvested using centrifugation and washed in media to remove the unbound conjugate and peptide. Peptide-drug-pulsed cells were then co-cultured with human T-cells (E:T=3:1) in the presence of single-chain Diabodies (scDbs) for 19-21 hr. After incubation, cells were harvested and washed with PBS, then stained with Fixable Viability Dye eFluor660 (ThermoFisher, 65-0864-14). After washing cells, the cells were analyzed on iQue screener (Sartorius).

    [0155] To obtain the results for FIG. 19, lung cancer cell lines were cultured in RPMI supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and penicillin/streptomycin. For cytotoxicity assays, 1?10.sup.4 cells/well were seeded in 96-well flat bottom plates and incubated at 37? C., 5% CO.sub.2 for 24 hours. Media were replaced with fresh media supplemented with 100 nM AMG510 or DMSO, then the cells were incubated for 24 hours at 37? C. After incubation, cells were co-cultured with human T cells (E:T=5:1) and AMRA3-7_UCHT1 scDb in the presence of 100 IU/mL IL-2 for 24 hr at 37? C. Cell viability was assessed by using PrestoBlue? Cell Viability Reagent (ThermoFisher, A13261). Cytotoxicity was calculated by taking the fluorescent signal of a given well, subtracting the fluorescent signal from the wells that contain only T-cells, and normalizing to the fluorescent signal from the wells without scDb.

    Example 5

    [0158] This Example demonstrates scDb and 2+1 CrossMab antibodies constructed with the AMRA3-7 clone and their effectiveness in cell killing. Data from non-limiting embodiments are presented in FIGS. 21-22.

    [0159] To obtain the results for FIG. 21 (A) and FIG. 22 (B), Raji cells (ATCC) were cultured in RPMI supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and penicillin/streptomycin. The cytotoxic effects of scDb and CrossMab were measured by following the protocol published previously (ref: PMID 26813960). Briefly, Raji cells were stained with carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CSFE, ThermoFisher, 65-0850-84), then incubated with 10 ?M KRAS(G12C)-AMG510 conjugate or 10 ?M KRAS(WT) peptide (final concentrations) in the presence of 10 ?g/mL human beta-2 microglobulin for 4 hr. The cells were harvested by centrifugation and washed in media to remove the unbound conjugate and peptide. Peptide-drug-pulsed cells were then co-cultured with human T-cells (E:T=3:1) in the presence of scDb or CrossMab for 19 hr. After incubation, cells were harvested and washed with PBS, then stained with Fixable Viability Dye eFluor660 (ThermoFisher, 65-0864-14). After washing again, cells were analyzed on iQue screener (Satorius).

    [0160] To obtain the results for FIGS. 21 (B) and 22 (C), H2122 cells (ATCC) were cultured in RPMI supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and penicillin/streptomycin. For cytotoxicity assays, 5?10.sup.3 cells/well were seeded in 96-well flat bottom plates in the presence of 1 mM AMG510 or DMSO and 5 ?g/mL human beta-2 microglobulin, and then were incubated at 37? C., 5% CO.sub.2 for 48 hours. After incubation, cells were co-cultured with human T cells (E:T=10:1) and AMRA3-7D scDb or CrossMab in the presence of 10 ng/mL IL7 and IL15 for 24 hr at 37? C. Dead cells were measured by using CytoTox-Glo cytotoxic assay (Promega, G9290). The luminescent signal of a given well was calculated by subtracting the signal from wells that contain H2122 and T-cells without scDb or CrossMab constructs.

    [0161] To obtain the results for FIG. 22 (A), Jurkat and Raji cells (ATCC) were cultured in RPMI supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and penicillin/streptomycin. Cells were washed twice with PBS, then incubated with AMRA3-7D CrossMab at 4? C. for 30 min. After washing three times with PBS containing 1% BSA (PBS/BSA), cells were stained with Alexa647 Goat Anti-Human IgG Fc (Jackson ImmunoResearch, 109-605-098). After incubation, cells were washed three times with PBS/BSA and analyzed on iQue screener (Sartorius).

    [0162] FIG. 21 shows the cytotoxic effect of AMRA3-7D in the single-chain Diabody (scDb) format. (A) Raji cells were first pulsed with AMG510 conjugated to a peptide corresponding to a fragment of KRAS(G12C) or a control peptide corresponding to KRAS(wild type). Pulsed cells were co-cultured with human T cells (Effector:Target=3:1) in the presence of scDb at the indicated concentrations. After incubation for 17 hours, dead cells were stained and detected by flow cytometry. (B) H2122 cells were first incubated with AMG510 or DMSO. The cells were then co-cultured with human T cells (Effector:Target=10:1) in the presence of scDb at the indicated concentrations. After incubation, dead cells were measured by detecting a distinct intracellular protease activity released from membrane-compromised cells. Data shown here are from triplicate measurements. Error bars indicate the s.d. Where error bars are not visible, the errors are smaller than the symbols. Anti-HLA-A3 is a positive control.

    [0163] FIG. 22 shows the CD3 binding properties and cytotoxic effects of AMRA3-7D in the CrossMab format. (A) Binding titration curve of AMRA3-7 CrossMab to Jurkat (CD3 positive) and Raji (CD3 negative) cells. The apparent K.sub.D value is shown. Note that cells were not pulsed with any peptides. (B, C) Cytotoxic effects of AMRA3-7D CrossMab on Raji cells pulsed with an exogenous peptide-drug conjugate (B) and on H2122 cells treated with the drug (C). Methods are the same as in FIG. 22. Data shown here are from triplicate measurements. Error bars indicate the s.d. Where error bars are not visible, the errors are smaller than the symbols. Anti-HLA-A3 serves as a positive control.

    Example 6

    [0164] This example demonstrates deep mutational analysis of the AMR-A3-7D and OEA2-5 antibodies. Data from non-limiting embodiments is presented in FIGS. 23 and 24.

    [0165] To identify mutations in CDRs of AMR-A3-7D and OEA2-5 that retain antigen binding, we performed deep mutational scanning on residues CDR-L3 and CDR-H3. In the yeast display format, each of the CDR-L3 and CDR-H3 residues were mutated to all genetically encoded amino acids using the NNK codon (N=A, T, G and C; K=G and T), one residue at a time. The resulting pool of mutants was combined, and the library was subjected to FACS using the relevant antigen, i.e., AMG510-KRAS(G12C) peptide in complex with HLA-A*03:01 for AMR-A3-7D and Osimertinib-EGFR in complex with HLA-A*02:01. We used different antigen concentrations in order to adjust the stringency of library sorting. Vectors recovered from binding-capable and binding-incapable pools were analyzed by deep sequencing on an Illumina MiSeq instrument. Mutations found in different pools were deduced from the DNA sequencing analysis.

    [0166] From this analysis, the disclosure provides the following permissible mutations at each CDR position as shown in the tables below. As references, the VL and VH sequences of the parent clones are shown, with the analyzed CDR residues in bold an italics. In embodiments, the disclosure includes each mutation alone, and all combination of mutations. Thus, as evident from the Tables, the disclosure included the described CDRs with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 mutations as indicated in the Tables. The disclosure includes additional amino acid chances, such as in CDR1, CDR2, and in the framework sequences.
