Universal chimeric Fcγ receptor T cells with appropriate affinity for IgG1 antibody exhibit optimal antitumor efficacy.

ABSTRACT: Developing universal CARs with improved flexible targeting and controllable activities is urgently needed. While several studies have suggested the potential of CD16a in tandem with monoclonal antibodies to construct universal CAR-T cells, the weak affinity between them is one of the limiting factors for efficacy. Herein, we systematically investigated the impact of Fcγ receptor (FcγR) affinity on CAR-T cells properties by constructing universal CARs using Fcγ receptors with different affinities for IgG1 antibodies, namely CD16a, CD32a, and CD64. We demonstrated that the activities of these universal CAR-T cells on tumor cells could be redirected and regulated by IgG1 antibodies. In xenografted mice, 64CAR chimeric Jurkat cells with the highest affinity showed significant antitumor effects in combination with herceptin in the HER2 low expression U251 MG model. However, in the CD20 high expression Raji model, 64CAR caused excessive activation of CAR-T cells, which resulted in cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and the decline of antitumor activity, and 32CAR with a moderate affinity brought the best efficacy. Our work extended the knowledge about FcγR-based universal CAR-T cells and suggested that only the FcγRCAR with an appropriate affinity can offer the optimal antitumor advantages of CAR-T cells.

Project description:Immunoglobulin (Ig)G antibodies coordinate immune effector responses by selectively binding to target antigens and then interacting with various effector cells via the Fcγ receptors. The Fc domain of IgG can promote or inhibit distinct effector responses across several different immune cell types through variation based on subclass and Fc domain glycosylation. Extensive characterization of these interactions has revealed how the inclusion of certain Fc subclasses or glycans results in distinct immune responses. During an immune response, however, IgG is produced with mixtures of Fc domain properties, so antigen-IgG immune complexes are likely to almost always be comprised of a combination of Fc forms. Whether and how this mixed composition influences immune effector responses has not been examined. Here, we measured Fcγ receptor binding to immune complexes of mixed Fc domain composition. We found that the binding properties of the mixed-composition immune complexes fell along a continuum between those of the corresponding pure cases. Binding quantitatively matched a mechanistic binding model, except for several low-affinity interactions mostly involving IgG2. We found that the affinities of these interactions are different than previously reported, and that the binding model could be used to provide refined estimates of these affinities. Finally, we demonstrated that the binding model can predict effector-cell elicited platelet depletion in humanized mice, with the model inferring the relevant effector cell populations. Contrary to the previous view in which IgG2 poorly engages with effector populations, we observe appreciable binding through avidity, but insufficient amounts to observe immune effector responses. Overall, this work demonstrates a quantitative framework for reasoning about effector response regulation arising from IgG of mixed Fc composition.Summary pointsThe binding behavior of mixed Fc immune complexes is a blend of the binding properties for each constituent IgG species.An equilibrium, multivalent binding model can be generalized to incorporate immune complexes of mixed Fc composition.Particularly for low-affinity IgG-Fcγ receptor interactions, immune complexes provide better estimates of affinities.The FcγR binding model predicts effector-elicited cell clearance in humanized mice.
