AbstractAntibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) have emerged as a transformative modality in the treatment of solid tumors. YL201, a novel B7H3-targeting ADC, leverages a tumor microenvironment activable linker-payload platform, coupled with a novel topoisomerase 1 inhibitor via a protease-cleavable linker.

The antibody response to vaccination and infection is a key component of the immune response to pathogens. Sequencing of peripheral B cells may not represent the complete B cell receptor repertoire. Here we present a method for sequencing human plasma-derived polyclonal IgG using a combination of mass spectrometry and B-cell sequencing. We investigate the IgG response to the Moderna Spikevax COVID-19 vaccine. From the sequencing data of the natural polyclonal response to vaccination, we generate 12 recombinant antibodies. Six derived recombinant antibodies, including four generated with de novo protein sequencing, exhibit similar or higher binding affinities than the original natural polyclonal antibody. Neutralization tests reveal that the six antibodies possess neutralizing capabilities against the target antigen. This research provides insights into sequencing polyclonal IgG antibodies and the potential of our approach in generating recombinant antibodies with robust binding affinity and neutralization capabilities. Directly examining the circulating IgG pool is crucial due to potential misrepresentations by B-cell analysis alone. The antibody response to infection and vaccination is an essential component of the anti-infective immune response. Here the authors present a de novo protein sequencing method for antibody discovery from polyclonal IgG from human plasma and characterise the antibody response to the Moderna Spikevax COVID-19 vaccine.

AbstractThis single-arm, multicenter, phase 2 trial (NCT04106180) investigated the triple combination of sintilimab (anti-PD1 antibody), stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). With a median follow-up of 32.1 months, 18 (36.7%, 90% CI 25.3%–49.5%) of the 49 evaluable patients had an objective response, meeting the primary endpoint.
