Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to compositions comprising peptides for preventing or treating allergy to cats, and in particular to optimal combinations of peptides

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] T-cell antigen recognition requires antigen presenting cells (APCs) to present antigen fragments (peptides) on their cell surface in association with molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). T cells use their antigen specific T-cell receptors (TCRs) to recognise the antigen fragments presented by the APC. Such recognition acts as a trigger to the immune system to generate a range of responses to eradicate the antigen which has been recognised.

[0003] Recognition of external antigens by the immune system of an organism, such as man, can in some cases result in diseases, known as atopic conditions. Examples of the latter are the allergic diseases including asthma, atopic dermatitis and allergic rhinitis. In this group of diseases, B lymphocytes generate antibodies of the IgE class (in humans) which bind externally derived antigens, which are referred to in this context as allergens since these molecules elicit an allergic response. Production of allergen-specific IgE is dependent upon T lymphocytes which are also activated by (are specific for) the allergen. Allergen-specific IgE antibodies bind to the surface of cells such as basophils and mast cells by virtue of the expression by these cells of surface receptors for IgE.

[0004] Crosslinking of surface bound IgE molecules by allergen results in degranulation of these effector cells causing release of inflammatory mediators such as histamine, 5-hydroxtryptamine and lipid mediators such as the sulphidoleukotrienes. In addition to IgE-dependent events, certain allergic diseases such as asthma are characterised by IgE-independent events.

[0005] Allergic IgE-mediated diseases are currently treated with agents which provide symptomatic relief or prevention. Examples of such agents are anti-histamines, β2 agonists, and glucocorticosteroids. In addition, some IgE-mediated diseases are treated by desensitisation procedures that involve the periodic injection of allergen components or extracts. Desensitisation treatments may induce an IgG response that competes with IgE for allergen, or they may induce specific suppressor T cells that block the synthesis of IgE directed against allergen. This form of treatment is not always effective and poses the risk of provoking serious side effects, particularly general anaphylactic shock. This can be fatal unless recognised immediately and treated with adrenaline. A therapeutic treatment that would decrease or eliminate the unwanted allergic-immune response to a particular allergen, without altering the immune reactivity to other foreign antigens or triggering an allergic response itself would be of great benefit to allergic individuals.

[0006] Approximately 10% of the worlds human population are allergic to cats (Felis domesticus) and up to 67% of asthmatic patients are sensitive to cat allergens. The major allergen produced by cats is the glycoprotein Fel d1, which elicits a response in 90-95% of patients suffering from cat allergy. A therapeutic or preventative treatment would therefore be of great benefit to humans that suffer or are at risk of suffering from cat allergy.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0007] The present inventors have discovered that certain combinations of peptide fragments of the Fel d1 protein are particularly useful in desensitising individuals to Fel d1 allergen. The polypeptide combinations of the invention have been selected for their ability to bind to many MHC Class II molecules, and cause T cell proliferation with minimal histamine release. The compositions, products, vectors and formulations of the invention may therefore be provided to individuals for preventing or treating allergy to cats by tolerisation.

[0008] The polypeptides of the invention were initially selected as potential T cell epitopes through use of peptide-MHC binding assays. See for example FIG. 1 which demonstrates the ability of a range of peptides derived from Fel d1 chains 1 and 2 to bind to multiple DR types in MHC class II binding assays These candidate polypeptides were then further screened for potential use in tolerisation.

[0009] A difficulty associated with approaches to desensitisation based on peptide immunisation lies in how to select an appropriate size and region of the allergen as the basis for the peptide to be used for immunisation. The size of the peptide of choice is crucial. If the peptide is too small, the vaccine would not be effective in inducing an immunological response. If the peptides are too large, or if the whole antigen is introduced into an individual, there is the risk of inducing adverse reactions, such as anaphylaxis, which may be fatal.

[0010] The polypeptides of the invention have been selected to retain T cell specificity whilst being small enough in size to not possess significant tertiary structure that would enable them to retain the conformation of an IgE-binding epitope of the whole molecule. The polypeptides of the invention therefore do not induce significant crosslinking of adjacent specific IgE molecules on cells such as mast cells and basophils and consequently do not cause significant histamine release.

[0011] The peptides of the invention are advantageous in that upon administration to a sample of T cells they result in T cell proliferation whilst causing minimal histamine release. This is demonstrated in Example 2. The polypeptides of the inventions are capable of inducing a late phase response in a cat allergic individual. The composition, products and formulations of the invention comprising these polypeptides or polynucleotides that are capable of expressing these polypeptides are therefore useful and effective in reducing hypersensitivity to Fel d1 allergen in individuals that are sensitised to this allergen.

[0012] A further advantage of the invention is the ability of the combinations of peptides to broadly target Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) molecules. T cell receptors (TCRs) are highly variable in their specificity. Variability is generated, as with antibody molecules, through gene recombination events within the cell. TCRs recognise antigen in the form of short peptides bound to molecules encoded by the genes of the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC). These gene products are the same molecules that give rise to "tissue types" used in transplantation and are also referred tows Human Leukocyte Antigen molecules (HLAs) which terms may be used interchangeably. Individual MHC molecules possess peptide binding grooves which, due to their shape and charge are only capable of binding a limited group of peptides. The peptides bound by one MHC molecule may not necessarily be bound by other MHC molecules.

[0013] When a protein molecule such as an antigen or allergen is taken up by antigen presenting cells such as B lymphocytes, dendritic cells, monocytes and macrophages, the molecule is enzymatically degraded within the cell. The process of degradation gives rise to peptide fragments of the molecule which, if they are of the appropriate size, charge and shape, may then bind within the peptide binding groove of certain MHC molecules and be subsequently displayed upon the surface of antigen presenting cells. If the peptide/MHC complexes are present upon the antigen presenting cell surface in sufficient numbers they may then activate T cells which bear the appropriate peptide/MHC-specific T cell receptors.

[0014] Due to the polymorphic nature of the MHC, individuals in an outbred population such as man will express different combinations of MHC molecules on their cell surfaces. Since different MHC molecules can bind different peptides from the same molecule based on the size, charge and shape of the peptide, different individuals will display a different repertoire of peptides bound to their MHC molecules. Identification of universal MHC-binding peptide epitopes in an outbred population such as man is more difficult than in inbred animals (such as certain strains of laboratory mice). On the basis of differential MHC expression between individuals and the inherent differences in peptide binding and presentation which this brings, it is unlikely that a single peptide can be identified which will be of use for desensitisation therapy in man.

[0015] The peptide combination of the invention, however, provides a broad coverage of efficacy over the human population by targeting the majority of the population's MHC. It would not, for example, be necessary to type the patient or individual to determine which MHC Class II molecules he or she possesses in order to determine what peptide or combination of peptides would be effective. A vaccine formulated with the peptides of the invention would therefore have broad utility.

[0016] The inventors' work has produced peptide combinations with the following characteristics:

[0017] the combination binds to many different MHC Class II molecules (see FIG. 2 which shows the large number of combinations that do not bind to many different MHC molecules)

[0018] the combinations produce the same or less histamine release than the whole allergen and/or have a cytokine release profile equivalent to the whole allergen

[0019] the peptides of the combinations are soluble.

[0020] Accordingly, the present invention provides a composition for use in preventing or treating allergy to cats by tolerisation comprising:

[0021] a) four or more polypeptides selected from any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12, and optionally

[0022] b) one, two or three polypeptides having the following characteristics:

[0023] (i) comprising sequence having at least 65% sequence identity to at least 9 or more contiguous amino acids in any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 not selected in a); and

[0024] (ii) 9 to 30 amino acids in length.

[0025] Preferably, the composition of the invention comprises either:

[0026] (i) at least two peptides which exhibit strong binding and at least one peptide which exhibits moderate binding to each member of a panel of HLA molecules; or

[0027] (ii) at least one peptide which exhibits strong binding and at least two peptides which exhibit moderate binding to each member of said panel of HLA molecules; wherein the panel of HLA molecules comprises at least seven different HLA molecules encoded by different alleles which have a cumulative frequency in an outbred human population of at least 80%; and/or

[0028] (iii) wherein the composition is capable of inducing histamine release in a sample from a cat allergic individual at a level which is no higher than 5% above the histamine release induced in a sample from the same individual by whole Fel d 1 allergen; and/or

[0029] (iv) wherein the composition induces a cytokine release profile in a PBMC sample from a cat allergic individual which is equivalent to the cytokine release profile in a sample from the same individual induced by whole Fel d 1 allergen.

[0030] Typically the outbred human population is Caucasian, and/or the panel of HLA molecules comprises at least HLA-DR1, DR3, DR4, DR7, DR11, DR13 and DR15; and optionally also comprises HLA-DRB4 and DRB5.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0031] FIG. 1--Peptides derived from Fel d1 chains 1 and 2 were tested for ability to bind to multiple DR types in MHC class II binding assays. Peptides that showed promiscuous binding characteristics were selected and combined to generate mixtures of peptides that bind to a broad population of MHC class II types.

[0032] FIGS. 2A-2Q--Graphical representations of peptide mixtures showing those which bind to a broad population of MHC class II types.

[0033] FIG. 3--Proliferation: percentage responders and quality of response. FIG. 3 summarises proliferative responses to peptides and antigens. The percentage of individuals mounting a detectable proliferative response is shown in the black bars. Grey (weak), white (moderate) and hashed (strong) bars provide a breakdown of the quality of these responses. Quality is arbitrarily defined by Stimulation Index (SI: ratio of counts in the presence of antigen/peptide divided by counts in medium alone). Thus for peptide 1 (MLA01), 12% of subjects made a proliferative response and of these 92% were weak, none were moderate and 8% were high. Proliferative responses to individual peptides/antigens were variable (black bar). 92% of subjects had positive proliferative responses to the positive control antigen PPD. The majority of these were strong responses (hashed bar). 75% of subjects responded to cat dander extract, with 59% of the responses (i.e. 59% of the 75%) being weak. The response to the mixture of 7 preferred peptides (SEQ ID NOS: 1 TO 7) was almost identical to cat dander extract (CAT).

[0034] FIG. 4--Percentage of responders by cytokine. FIG. 4 summarises the percentage of individuals who mounted a detectable response to each of the peptides/antigens by production of the three cytokines measured. The positive control antigen PPD elicited a cytokine production in almost all individuals (IFN-γ: 91%, IL-13: 97% and IL-10: 96%). Whole cat allergen and the mixture of 7 peptides elicited a cytokine response in approximately 80% or more of subjects. Individual peptides elicited responses of differing frequency. In general cytokine production appeared to be a more sensitive method of detecting responses with larger percentages of individuals giving positive cytokine responses than proliferative responses. In most cases, IL-10 secretion was detected in the largest number of subjects and IFN-γ detected least frequently.

[0035] FIG. 5--Percentage of individuals producing IFN-γ and strength of response following cell culture with peptide/antigen. IFN-γ responses were detected in 26-44% of subjects in response to individual peptides. These responses were predominantly very low to low to moderate. Complex antigens induced more frequent responses (peptide mixture 80%, cat dander 79%, PPD 91%). These responses were low to moderate to high. PPD responses were particularly high (89 of PPD responses were above 100 pg/ml).

[0036] FIG. 6--Percentage of individuals producing IL-13 and strength of response following cell culture with peptide/antigen. IL-13 responses were detected in between 33-68% of subjects in response to individual peptides. These responses were predominantly very low to low, although a significant number of moderate responses were detected. This may reflect the Th2 nature of allergic sensitisation in these subjects. Complex antigens induced more frequent responses (peptide mixture 85%, cat dander 93%, PPD 97%). These responses were low to moderate to high.

[0037] FIG. 7--Percentage of individuals producing IL-10 and strength of response following cell culture with peptide/antigen. IL-10 responses were detected in between 46-75% of subjects in response to individual peptides. These responses were predominantly very low to low. Complex antigens induced more frequent responses (peptide mixture 93%, cat dander 96%, PPD 96%). These responses were low to moderate. Very few "high" IL-10 responses were observed.

Peptide Fragments of Fel d1 Protein

[0046] The major allergen produced by the domestic cat Felis catus (Felis domesticus) is the glycoprotein Fel d1. This 39 kDa protein is formed from two 17 kDa subunits, each consisting of two disulphide-linked peptides (Fel d1 Chain 1 and Chain 2). The amino acid sequence of Fel d1 is disclosed in WO 91/06571. The major source of the Fel d1 protein is the sebaceous glands, although expression is also detected in salivary glands and the anal glands. The function of the Fel d1 protein is currently unknown, although it is possibly a pheromone binding protein.

[0047] The peptides of the invention are derived from Fel d1. The terms "peptide" and "polypeptide" are used interchangeably herein. Fel d1 is also referred to herein as "the allergen".

[0048] The composition of the invention comprises four or more polypeptides selected from any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. Optionally, the composition may comprise one, two or three further polypeptides. These further polypeptides relate to (i.e. are typically homologues and/or fragments of) the other sequences, i.e. SEQ ID NO 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12, that are not amongst the four or more polypeptides already selected. The one, two or three further polypeptides may be identical to any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. The composition may therefore comprise four, five, six or seven different polypeptides as provided in any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. However, the optional one, two or three further polypeptides do not need to be 100% identical to any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. They are preferably at least 65% identical to at least 9 or more contiguous amino acids in any of SEQ ID NO 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12, not already selected for the four or more polypeptides.

[0049] In other words, the invention provides a composition for use in the prevention or treatment of cat allergy by tolerisation comprising a) four or more polypeptides selected from any one of the following amino acid sequences:

TABLE-US-00001 (SEQ ID NO: 1) CPAVKRDVDLFLT; (SEQ ID NO: 2) EQVAQYKALPVVLENA; (SEQ ID NO: 3) KALPVVLENARILKNCV; (SEQ ID NO: 4) RILKNCVDAKMTEEDKE; (SEQ ID NO: 5) KENALSLLDKIYTSPL; (SEQ ID NO: 6) TAMKKIQDCYVENGLI; (SEQ ID NO: 7) SRVLDGLVMTTISSSK; (SEQ ID NO: 8) LFLTGTPDEYVEQVAQY; (SEQ ID NO: 9) KMTEEDKENALSLLDK; (SEQ ID NO: 10) LTKVNATEPERTAMKK; (SEQ ID NO: 11) ISSSKDCMGEAVQNTV; (SEQ ID NO: 12) AVQNTVEDLKLNTLGR

And optionally, the composition may comprise b) one, two or three further polypeptides having the following characteristics:

[0050] (i) comprising sequence having at least 65% sequence identity to at least 9 or more contiguous amino acids in any of SEQ ID NO: 1 to 12 above not selected in a); and

[0051] (ii) 9 to 30 amino acids in length.

[0052] The invention also provides a product containing a) four or more polypeptides selected from any one of the following amino acid sequences:

TABLE-US-00002 (SEQ ID NO: 1) CPAVKRDVDLFLT; (SEQ ID NO: 2) EQVAQYKALPVVLENA; (SEQ ID NO: 3) KALPVVLENARILKNCV; (SEQ ID NO: 4) RILKNCVDAKMTEEDKE; (SEQ ID NO: 5) KENALSLLDKIYTSPL; (SEQ ID NO: 6) TAMKKIQDCYVENGLI; (SEQ ID NO: 7) SRVLDGLVMTTISSSK; (SEQ ID NO: 8) LFLTGTPDEYVEQVAQY; (SEQ ID NO: 9) KMTEEDKENALSLLDK; (SEQ ID NO: 10) LTKVNATEPERTAMKK; (SEQ ID NO: 11) ISSSKDCMGEAVQNTV; (SEQ ID NO: 12) AVQNTVEDLKLNTLGR

and optionally, the product may comprise b) one or more further polypeptides having the following characteristics:

[0053] (i) comprising sequence having at least 65% sequence identity to at least 9 or more contiguous amino acids in any of SEQ ID NO: 1 to 12 above not selected in a); and

[0054] (ii) 9 to 30 amino acids in length, wherein each different polypeptide is for simultaneous, separate or sequential use in the prevention or treatment of cat allergy by tolerisation.

[0055] In more detail therefore, the invention provides a product containing:

[0056] (a) A polypeptide selected from any one of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12;

[0057] (b) A polypeptide selected from any one of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12, that is not selected in (a) above;

[0058] (c) A polypeptide selected from any one of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12, that is not selected in (a) or (b) above;

[0059] (d) A polypeptide selected from any one of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12, that is not selected in (a), (b) or (c) above; and optionally

[0060] (e) A polypeptide having the following characteristics:

[0061] (i) comprising sequence having at least 65% sequence identity to at least 9 or more contiguous amino acids in any of SEQ ID NO: 1 to 12 not selected in a), b), c) or d) above; and

[0062] (ii) 9 to 30 amino acids in length; and optionally

[0063] (f) A polypeptide fragment of Fel d1 protein having the following characteristics:

[0064] (i) comprising sequence having at least 65% sequence identity to at least 9 or more contiguous amino acids in any of SEQ ID NO: 1 to 12 not selected in a), b), c), d) or e) above; and

[0065] (ii) 9 to 30 amino acids in length; and optionally

[0066] (g) A polypeptide fragment of Fel d1 protein having the following characteristics:

[0067] (i) comprising sequence having at least 65% sequence identity to at least 9 or more contiguous amino acids in any of SEQ ID NO: 1 to 12 not selected in a), b), c), d), e) or f) above; and

[0068] (ii) 9 to 30 amino acids in length; for simultaneous, separate or sequential use in the prevention or treatment of cat allergy by tolerisation.

[0069] The composition or products of the invention may therefore comprise variants of any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. Peptide fragments according to the invention may be derived by truncation, e.g. by removal of one or more amino acids from the N and/or C-terminal ends of a polypeptide. Fragments may also be generated by one or more internal deletions, provided that the core 9 amino acids that makes up the T cell epitope is not substantially disrupted.

[0070] For example, a variant of SEQ ID NO: 1 may comprise a fragment of SEQ ID NO: 1, i.e. a shorter sequence. This may include a deletion of one, two, three or four amino acids from the N-terminal end of SEQ ID NO: 1 or from the C-terminal end of SEQ ID NO: 1. Such deletions may be made from both ends of SEQ ID NO: 1. A variant of SEQ ID NO: 1 may include additional amino acids (for example from the cat Fel d1 protein sequence) extending beyond the end(s) of SEQ ID NO: 1. A variant may include a combination of the deletions and additions discussed above. For example, amino acids may be deleted from one end of SEQ ID NO: 1, but additional amino acids from the full length Fel d1 protein sequence may be added at the other end of SEQ ID NO: 1. The same discussion of variants above also applies to SEQ ID NO: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12.

[0071] A variant peptide may include one or more amino acid substitutions from the amino acid sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12, or a fragment thereof. A variant peptide may comprise sequence having at least 65% sequence identity to at least 9 or more contiguous amino acids in any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. More preferably a suitable variant may comprise at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, or at least 98% amino acid identity to at least 9 contiguous amino acids of any of SEQ ID NO 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. This level of amino acid identity may be seen at any section of the peptide, although it is preferably the core region. The level of amino acid identity is over at least 9 contiguous amino acids but it may be at least 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 or at least 16 or 17 amino acids, depending on the size of the peptides of comparison. Accordingly, any of the above-specified levels of identity may be across the entire length of sequence.

[0072] In connection with amino acid sequences, "sequence identity" refers to sequences which have the stated value when assessed using ClustalW (Thompson et al., 1994, supra) with the following parameters:

Pairwise alignment parameters--Method: accurate, Matrix: PAM, Gap open penalty: 10.00, Gap extension penalty: 0.10; Multiple alignment parameters--Matrix: PAM, Gap open penalty: 10.00, % identity for delay: 30, Penalize end gaps: on, Gap separation distance: 0, Negative matrix: no, Gap extension penalty: 0.20, Residue-specific gap penalties: on, Hydrophilic gap penalties: on, Hydrophilic residues: GPSNDQEKR. Sequence identity at a particular residue is intended to include identical residues which have simply been derivatized.

[0073] A variant peptide may comprise 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or more, or up to 10 amino acid substitutions from any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. Substitution variants preferably involve the replacement of one or more amino acids with the same number of amino acids and making conservative amino acid substitutions. For example, an amino acid may be substituted with an alternative amino acid having similar properties, for example, another basic amino acid, another acidic amino acid, another neutral amino acid, another charged amino acid, another hydrophilic amino acid, another hydrophobic amino acid, another polar amino acid, another aromatic amino acid or another aliphatic amino acid. Some properties of the 20 main amino acids which can be used to select suitable substituents are as follows:

TABLE-US-00003 Ala aliphatic, hydrophobic, neutral Met hydrophobic, neutral Cys polar, hydrophobic, neutral Asn polar, hydrophilic, Asp polar, hydrophilic, neutral charged (-) Pro hydrophobic, neutral Glu polar, hydrophilic, Gln polar, hydrophilic, charged (-) neutral Phe aromatic, hydrophobic, Arg polar, hydrophilic, neutral charged (+) Gly aliphatic, neutral Ser polar, hydrophilic, neutral His aromatic, polar, hydrophilic, Thr polar, hydrophilic, neutral charged (+) Val aliphatic, hydrophobic, Ile aliphatic, hydrophobic, neutral neutral Lys polar, hydrophilic, charged(+) Trp aromatic, hydrophobic, Leu aliphatic, hydrophobic, neutral neutral Tyr aromatic, polar, hydrophobic

[0074] Further variants include those in which instead of the naturally occurring amino acid the amino acid which appears in the sequence is a structural analog thereof. Amino acids used in the sequences may also be modified, e.g. labelled, providing the function of the peptide is not significantly adversely affected. Where the peptide has a sequence that varies from the sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 or a fragment thereof, the substitutions may occur across the full length of the sequence, within the sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12, or outside the sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. For example, the variations described herein, such as additions, deletions, substitutions and modifications, may occur within the sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. A variant peptide may comprise or consist essentially of the amino acid sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 in which one, two, three, four or more amino acid substitutions have been made. A variant peptide may comprise a fragment of Fel d1 that is larger than any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. In this embodiment, the variations described herein, such as substitutions and modifications, may occur within and/or outside the sequence of any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12.

[0075] The variant peptides of the invention are 9 to 30 amino acids in length inclusive. Preferably, they may be from 9 to 20 or more preferably 13 to 17 amino acids in length. The peptides may be the same length as the peptide sequences in any one of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12.

[0076] The peptides may be chemically derived from the polypeptide allergen, for example by proteolytic cleavage or can be derived in an intellectual sense from the polypeptide allergen, for example by making use of the amino acid sequence of the polypeptide allergen and synthesising peptides based on the sequence. Peptides may be synthesised using methods well known in the art.

[0077] The term "peptide" includes not only molecules in which amino acid residues are joined by peptide (--CO--NH--) linkages but also molecules in which the peptide bond is reversed. Such retro-inverso peptidomimetics may be made using methods known in the art, for example such as those described in Meziere et al (1997) J. Immunol. 159, 3230-3237. This approach involves making pseudopeptides containing changes involving the backbone, and not the orientation of side chains. Meziere et al (1997) show that, at least for MHC class II and T helper cell responses, these pseudopeptides are useful. Retro-inverse peptides, which contain NH--CO bonds instead of CO--NH peptide bonds, are much more resistant to proteolysis.

[0078] Similarly, the peptide bond may be dispensed with altogether provided that an appropriate linker moiety which retains the spacing between the carbon atoms of the amino acid residues is used; it is particularly preferred if the linker moiety has substantially the same charge distribution and substantially the same planarity as a peptide bond. It will also be appreciated that the peptide may conveniently be blocked at its N-or C-terminus so as to help reduce susceptibility to exoproteolytic digestion. For example, the N-terminal amino group of the peptides may be protected by reacting with a carboxylic acid and the C-terminal carboxyl group of the peptide may be protected by reacting with an amine. Other examples of modifications include glycosylation and phosphorylation. Another potential modification is that hydrogens on the side chain amines of R or K may be replaced with methylene groups (--NH₂→--NH(Me) or --N(Me)₂).

[0079] Analogues of peptides according to the invention may also include peptide variants that increase or decrease the peptide's half-life in vivo. Examples of analogues capable of increasing the half-life of peptides used according to the invention include peptoid analogues of the peptides, D-amino acid derivatives of the peptides, and peptide-peptoid hybrids. A further embodiment of the variant polypeptides used according to the invention comprises D-amino acid forms of the polypeptide. The preparation of polypeptides using D-amino acids rather than L-amino acids greatly decreases any unwanted breakdown of such an agent by normal metabolic processes, decreasing the amounts of agent which needs to be administered, along with the frequency of its administration.

[0080] The peptides provided by the present invention may be derived from splice variants of Fel d1 encoded by mRNA generated by alternative splicing of the primary transcripts encoding the Fel d1 chains. The peptides may also be derived from amino acid mutants, glycosylation variants and other covalent derivatives of Fel d1 which retain at least an MHC-binding property of the allergen. Exemplary derivatives include molecules wherein the peptides of the invention are covalently modified by substitution, chemical, enzymatic, or other appropriate means with a moiety other than a naturally occurring amino acid. Further included are naturally occurring variants of Fel d1 found in different cats. Such a variant may be encoded by an allelic variant or represent an alternative splicing variant.

[0081] Variants as described above may be prepared during synthesis of the peptide or by post-production modification, or when the peptide is in recombinant form using the known techniques of site-directed mutagenesis, random mutagenesis, or enzymatic cleavage and/or ligation of nucleic acids.

[0082] In accordance with the invention, the further one, two or three peptides that the composition may comprise are preferably functional variants of any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12. That is, the peptides are preferably capable of inducing an immune response. In particular, they are capable of inducing a late phase response in a cat allergic individual. This may be tested by the ability of the peptide to induce T cell proliferation in a sample of T cells. Methods of testing the induction of T cell proliferation are well known in the art and one such method is exemplified in Example 2. Preferably the one or more further peptides are capable of causing T cell proliferation in at least 20% of samples of T cells, wherein each sample is obtained from different cat allergic individuals in the population. The compositions of the invention are preferably capable of inducing T cell proliferation in 30% or more samples of T cells obtained from of a panel of cat allergic individuals. More preferably, the compositions are capable of inducing T cell proliferation in 35% or more, 40% or more, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, or 90% or more of samples obtained from sensitized individuals in a panel. The number of individuals in a panel of cat allergic individuals may be any number greater than one, for example at least 2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 50, 80, or at least 100 individuals. It is preferred if the peptides cause T cell proliferation, but do not lead to the release of histamine from enriched basophils or mast cell preparations from a sensitised individual. There may be some histamine release, but preferably the composition does not cause significantly more histamine release than a composition comprising the 7 different polypeptides shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 to 7.

[0083] Suitable variants capable of binding to TCRs may be derived empirically or selected according to known criteria. Within a single peptide there are certain residues which contribute to binding within the MHC antigen binding groove and other residues which interact with hypervariable regions of the T cell receptor (Allen et al (1987) Nature 327: 713-5).

[0084] Within the residues contributing to T cell receptor interaction, a hierarchy has been demonstrated which pertains to dependency of T cell activation upon substitution of a given peptide residue. Using peptides which have had one or more T cell receptor contact residues substituted with a different amino acid, several groups have demonstrated profound effects upon the process of T cell activation. Evavold & Allen (1991) Nature 252: 1308-10) demonstrated the dissociation of T cell proliferation and cytokine production. In this in vitro model, a T cell clone specific for residues 64-76 of haemoglobin (in the context of I-E^k), was challenged with a peptide analogue in which a conservative substitution of aspartic acid for glutamic acid had been made. This substitution did not significantly interfere with the capacity of the analogue to bind to I-E^k.

[0085] Following in vitro challenge of a T cell clone with this analogue, no proliferation was detected although IL-4 secretion was maintained, as was the capacity of the clone to help B cell responses. In a subsequent study the same group demonstrated the separation of T cell-mediated cytolysis from cytokine production. In this instance, the former remained unaltered while the latter was impaired. The efficacy of altered peptide ligands in vivo was initially demonstrated in a murine model of EAE (experimental allergic encephalomyelitis) by McDevitt and colleagues (Smilek et al (1991) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 88: 9633-9637). In this model EAE is induced by immunisation with the encephalitogenic peptide Ac1-11 of MBP (myelin basic protein). Substitution at position four (lysine) with an alanine residue generated a peptide which bound well to its restricting element (Aα^uAβ^u), but which was non-immunogenic in the susceptible PL/JxSJLF1 strain and which, furthermore prevented the onset of EAE when administered either before or after immunisation with the encephalitogenic peptide. Thus, residues can be identified in peptides which affect the ability of the peptides to induce various functions of T-cells.

[0086] Advantageously, peptides may be designed to favour T-cell proliferation and induction of desensitisation. Metzler and Wraith have demonstrated improved tolerogenic capacity of peptides in which substitutions increasing peptide-MHC affinity have been made (Metzler & Wraith (1993) Int Immunol˜: 1159-65). That an altered peptide ligand can cause long-term and profound anergy in cloned T cells was demonstrated by Sloan-Lancaster et al (1993) Nature 363: 156-9.

[0087] The compositions of the invention are capable of inducing a late phase response in an individual that is sensitised to Fel d1 allergen. The term "late phase response" includes the meaning as set forth in Allergy and Allergic Diseases (1997) A. B. Kay (Ed.), Blackwell Science, pp 1113-1130. The late phase response may be any late phase response (LPR). Preferably, the peptides are capable of inducing a late asthmatic response (LAR) or a late rhinitic response, or a late phase skin response or a late phase ocular response. Whether or not a particular peptide can give rise to a LPR can be determined using methods well known in the art; a particularly preferred method is that described in Cromwell O, Durham S R, Shaw R J, Mackay J and Kay A B. Provocation tests and measurements of mediators from mast cells and basophils in asthma and allergic rhinitis. In: Handbook of Experimental Immunology (4) Chapter 127, Editor: Weir D M, Blackwell Scientific Publications, 1986.

[0088] Thus, preferably, the individual peptides of the invention are able to induce a LPR in an individual who has been sensitised to Fel d1 allergen. Whether or not an individual has been sensitised to the allergen may be determined by well known procedures such as skin prick testing with solutions of allergen extracts, induction of cutaneous LPRs, clinical history, allergen challenge and radioallergosorbent test (RAST) for measurement of allergen specific IgE. Whether or not a particular individual is expected to benefit from treatment may be determined by the physician based, for example, on such tests.

[0089] Desensitising or tolerising an individual to Fel d1 allergen means inhibition or dampening of allergic tissue reactions induced by Fel d1 in appropriately sensitised individuals. It has been shown that T cells can be selectively activated, and then rendered unresponsive. Moreover the anergising or elimination of these T-cells leads to desensitisation of the patient for a particular allergen. The desensitisation manifests itself as a reduction in response to an allergen or allergen-derived peptide, or preferably an elimination of such a response, on second and further administrations of the allergen or allergen-derived peptide. The second administration may be made after a suitable period of time has elapsed to allow desensitisation to occur; this is preferably any period between one day and several weeks. An interval of around two weeks is preferred.

[0090] Although the compositions of the invention are able to induce a LPR in a cat allergic individual, it should be appreciated that when a composition is used to treat a patient it is preferable that a sufficiently low concentration of the composition is used such that no observable LPR will occur but the response will be sufficient to partially desensitise the T cells such that the next (preferably higher) dose may be given, and so on. In this way the dose is built up to give full desensitisation but often without ever inducing a LPR in the patient. Although, the composition or peptide is able to do so at a higher concentration than is administered.

[0091] The compositions of the invention preferably are capable of inducing a late phase response in 50% or more of a panel of cat allergic individuals from the population. More preferably, the compositions are capable of inducing a LPR in 55% or more, 60% or more, 65% or more, 70% or more, 75% or more, 80% or more, 85% or more, or 90% or more of sensitized individuals in a panel. Whether or not the compositions are able to induce a LPR in a certain percentage of a panel of subjects can be determined by methods which are well known in the art.

Properties of Peptide Combinations

MHC Binding

[0092] Preferred combinations of peptides typically bind to a large number of different HLA molecules. This is advantageous in that a larger proportion of individuals in a population will be tolerised by the combination. Thus preferred combinations comprise either:

[0093] (iii) at least two peptides which exhibit strong binding and at least one peptide which exhibits moderate binding to each member of a panel of HLA molecules; or

[0094] (iv) at least one peptide which exhibits strong binding and at least two peptides which exhibit moderate binding to each member of said panel of HLA molecules; wherein the panel of HLA molecules comprises at least seven different HLA molecules encoded by different alleles which have a cumulative frequency in an outbred human population of at least 80%, or at least 85%, 90%, 95% or 99%.

[0095] Strength of MHC binding may be evaluated by any suitable method. Preferred methods include competitive inhibition assays wherein binding is measured relative to a reference peptide. The reference peptide is typically a peptide which is known to be a strong binder for a given MHC molecule. In such an assay, a peptide is a weak binder for a given HLA molecule if it has an IC50 more than 100 fold lower than the reference peptide for the given HLA molecule. A peptide is a moderate binder is it has an IC50 more than 20 fold lower but less than a 100 fold lower than the reference peptide for the given HLA molecule. A peptide is a strong binder if it has an IC50 less than 20 fold lower than the reference peptide for the given HLA molecule.

[0096] The outbred human population may be any population, typically a Caucasian population. The panel of HLA molecules typically comprises at least HLA-DR1, DR3, DR4, DR7, DR11, DR13 and DR15; and optionally also comprises HLA-DRB4 and DRB5. Suitable reference peptides for these HLA molecules are:

TABLE-US-00004 DR1 (DRB1*0101 allele): HA 306-318 (PKYVKQNTLKLAT); DR3 (DRB1*0301 allele): MT216 (AKTIAYDEEARRGLE); DR4 (DRB1*0401 allele): HA 306-318 (PKYVKQNTLKLAT); DR7 (DRB1*0701 allele): YKL (AAYAAAKAAALAA); DR 11 (DRB1*1101 allele): HA 306-318 (PKYVKQNTLKLAT); DR13 (DRB1*1301 allele): B1 21-36 (TERVRLVTRHIYNREE); DR15 (DRB1*1501 allele): A3 152-166 (EAEQLRRAYLDGTGVE); DRB4 (DRB4*0101 allele): E2/E7 (AGDLLAIETDKATT); and DRB5 (DRB5*0101 allele): HA 306-318 (PKYVKQNTLKLAT).

Histamine Release

[0097] Preferred combinations of peptides typically induce histamine release in a sample from a cat allergic individual containing basophils or mast cells, which is no higher than 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9% or 10% greater than the histamine release induced in a sample from the same individual or population of individuals by the whole Fel d 1 allergen.

[0098] Most preferably, the combination induces histamine release which is no higher than 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9% or 10% greater than the histamine release induced in a sample from the same individual or population of individuals by a composition comprising the 7 different polypeptides shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 to 7.

[0099] A sample from a cat allergic individual is typically a sample of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) which may be prepared as is standard in the art. An example of a suitable method involves isolation of PBMCs from a heparinised blood sample obtained from a subject. PBMC's are typically isolated from such a sample by density gradient separation.

[0100] Histamine release may be assessed by any suitable method, for example by ELISA. A number of suitable assay kits are commercially available to test levels of histamine release from cells in response to any given histamine release agent. Typically, a sample of approximately 5×10⁵ to 5×10⁶ PBMCs will be incubated with a given histamine release agent at a given concentration. Histamine concentration in the incubation medium or a sample of the incubation medium will measured at the end of the incubation. Incubation is typically for 30 minutes at 37° C.

[0101] Where the histamine release agent is a peptide or combination of peptides it will typically be administered at a number of different dilutions within a concentration range comparable to that which would be expected to be present in vivo. For example, a 10 mg dose of a single peptide entering a blood volume of 5 litres would result in a blood concentration of 2 ng/ml (2×10^-6 mg/ml). Thus, a suitable concentration range for a peptide or combination of peptides is typically 10 mg/ml to 1 ng/ml. Single, duplicate or triplicate measurement may be made at each tested dilution within said range. Approximately 5×10⁵ PBMCs are typically required for each measurement. Suitable positive controls will also be tested at appropriate concentrations which may be readily determined by the skilled person. Suitable positive controls include whole Fel d 1allergen or a suitable alternative such as commercially available whole cat dander extract. Spontaneous histamine release by a sample of cells which is not treated with a histamine release agent may also be measured as a negative control/indicator of background histamine release. Where two or more dilutions of a peptide/allergen preparation elicit 10% or more histamine release above background, or where a single value of 10% or more above background is achieved at the highest concentration tested, this will typically be considered a "positive histamine release".

[0102] The histamine concentration in the incubation medium of any sample will typically be measured by ELISA. Suitable ELISA assays typically involve adding a histamine acylation agent to a sample of the incubation medium together with a suitable buffer. Acylated histamine is more stable than histamine and samples treated in this way may be stored for longer prior to analysis. Analysis typically involves the addition of alkaline-phosphatase conjugated anti-acyl-histamine reagents, followed by the addition of a suitable chromogenic alkaline-phosphatase substrate. Histamine concentration is determined by measurement of absorbance and comparison to a standard curve calibrated against known histamine concentrations.

Cytokine Release

[0103] Preferred combinations of peptides typically induce a cytokine release profile in a sample from a cat allergic individual containing T cells, which is equivalent to the cytokine release profile induced in a sample from the same individual or population of individuals by the whole Fel d 1 allergen.

[0104] Most preferably, the combination induces a cytokine release profile in a sample from a cat allergic individual or population of individuals containing T cells, which is equivalent to the cytokine release profile induced in a sample from the same individual or population by a composition comprising the 7 different polypeptides shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 to 7.

[0105] A sample from a cat allergic individual or population is typically a sample of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) which may be prepared as is standard in the art. Cytokine release profile may be assessed by any suitable method. Suitable methods include measuring the level of one, two, three or more different cytokines released in a sample in independent assays. Suitable assays include ELISA and Luminex assays.

[0106] A cytokine release profile induced in one sample is considered to be equivalent to the cytokine release profile of a different sample when the level of certain specific cytokines produced is similar in both samples. More specifically, the cytokine release profiles of two different samples are considered to be equivalent when the levels of IL-10 and IL-13 produced in one sample differ by no more 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9% or 10% from the levels of IL-10 and IL-13 produced in the second sample.

[0107] Thus, a preferred peptide combination induces production of IL-10 and IL-13 at levels which differ by no more than 10% from the levels of IL-10 and IL-13 induced in a sample from the same individual or population of individuals by the whole Fel d 1 allergen.

[0108] A typical cytokine release assay is as follows:

250 μl of a 200 μg/ml solution of the appropriate antigen or peptide concentration is distributed into the appropriate wells of, for example, 48 well plates. Plates are then incubated in a humidified 5% CO₂ incubator at 37° C. for a maximum of 4 hours. 250 μl of a 5×10⁶ cell/ml PBMC suspension is then added to each well and the plates returned to the incubator for 5 days. Samples of culture supernatant are then harvested as multiple aliquots for use in ELISA assays. The samples may be frozen and stored prior to analysis. One aliquot is tested for the presence of one cytokine. Typically the presence of a cytokine is established using an ELISA assay according to practices standard in the art. The cytokine concentrations in a sample are typically determined by interpolation from standard curves generated in the same assay.

Nucleic Acids and Vectors

[0109] The individual peptides that make up the compositions and products of the invention may be administered directly, or may be administered indirectly by expression from an encoding sequence. For example, a polynucleotide may be provided that encodes a peptide of the invention, such as any of the peptides described above. A peptide of the invention may thus be produced from or delivered in the form of a polynucleotide which encodes, and is capable of expressing, it. Any reference herein to the use, delivery or administration of a peptide of the invention is intended to include the indirect use, delivery or administration of such a peptide via expression from a polynucleotide that encodes it.

[0110] Accordingly, the invention provides a composition for use in preventing or treating allergy to cats by tolerisation comprising four or more different polynucleotide sequences which when expressed cause the production of a composition for use in preventing or treating allergy to cats by tolerisation comprising:

[0111] a) four or more polypeptides selected from any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12; and optionally

[0112] b) one, two or three polypeptides having the following characteristics:

[0113] (i) comprising sequence having at least 65% sequence identity to at least 9 or more contiguous amino acids in any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 not selected in a); and

[0114] (ii) 9 to 30 amino acids in length.

[0115] The invention also provides a product for use in preventing or treating allergy to cats by tolerisation containing:

[0116] a) four or more polynucleotides capable of expressing a different polypeptide selected from SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12, and optionally

[0117] b) one, two or three polynucleotides capable of expressing different polypeptides having the following characteristics:

[0118] (i) comprising sequence having at least 65% sequence identity to at least 9 or more contiguous amino acids in any of SEQ ID NO: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 not selected in a); and

[0119] (ii) 9 to 30 amino acids in length, wherein each different polypeptide is for simultaneous, separate of sequential use in the prevention or treatment of allergy to cats in a human.

[0120] The terms "nucleic acid molecule" and "polynucleotide" are used interchangeably herein and refer to a polymeric form of nucleotides of any length, either deoxyribonucleotides or ribonucleotides, or analogs thereof. Non-limiting examples of polynucleotides include a gene, a gene fragment, messenger RNA (mRNA), cDNA, recombinant polynucleotides, plasmids, vectors, isolated DNA of any sequence, isolated RNA of any sequence, nucleic acid probes, and primers. A polynucleotide of the invention may be provided in isolated or purified form. A nucleic acid sequence which "encodes" a selected polypeptide is a nucleic acid molecule which is transcribed (in the case of DNA) and translated (in the case of mRNA) into a polypeptide in vivo when placed under the control of appropriate regulatory sequences. The boundaries of the coding sequence are determined by a start codon at the 5' (amino) terminus and a translation stop codon at the 3' (carboxy) terminus. For the purposes of the invention, such nucleic acid sequences can include, but are not limited to, cDNA from viral, prokaryotic or eukaryotic mRNA, genomic sequences from viral or prokaryotic DNA or RNA, and even synthetic DNA sequences. A transcription termination sequence may be located 3' to the coding sequence.

[0121] Polynucleotides of the invention can be synthesised according to methods well known in the art, as described by way of example in Sambrook et al (1989, Molecular Cloning--a laboratory manual; Cold Spring Harbor Press).

[0122] The polynucleotide molecules of the present invention may be provided in the form of an expression cassette which includes control sequences operably linked to the inserted sequence, thus allowing for expression of the peptide of the invention in vivo in a targeted subject. These expression cassettes, in turn, are typically provided within vectors (e.g., plasmids or recombinant viral vectors) which are suitable for use as reagents for nucleic acid immunization. Such an expression cassette may be administered directly to a host subject. Alternatively, a vector comprising a polynucleotide of the invention may be administered to a host subject. Preferably the polynucleotide is prepared and/or administered using a genetic vector. A suitable vector may be any vector which is capable of carrying a sufficient amount of genetic information, and allowing expression of a peptide of the invention.

[0123] The present invention thus includes expression vectors that comprise such polynucleotide sequences. Thus, the present invention provides a vector for use in preventing or treating allergy to cats by tolerisation comprising four or more polynucleotide sequences which encode different polypeptides of the invention and optionally one or more further polynucleotide sequences which encode different polypeptides as defined herein. The vector may comprise 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12 polynucleotide sequences which encode different polypeptides of the invention.

[0124] Furthermore, it will be appreciated that the compositions and products of the invention may comprise a mixture of polypeptides and polynucleotides. Accordingly, the invention provides a composition or product as defined herein, wherein in place of any one of the polypeptide is a polynucleotide capable of expressing said polypeptide.

[0125] Expression vectors are routinely constructed in the art of molecular biology and may for example involve the use of plasmid DNA and appropriate initiators, promoters, enhancers and other elements, such as for example polyadenylation signals which may be necessary, and which are positioned in the correct orientation, in order to allow for expression of a peptide of the invention. Other suitable vectors would be apparent to persons skilled in the art. By way of further example in this regard we refer to Sambrook et al.

[0126] Thus, a polypeptide of the invention may be provided by delivering such a vector to a cell and allowing transcription from the vector to occur. Preferably, a polynucleotide of the invention or for use in the invention in a vector is operably linked to a control sequence which is capable of providing for the expression of the coding sequence by the host cell, i.e. the vector is an expression vector.

[0127] "Operably linked" refers to an arrangement of elements wherein the components so described are configured so as to perform their usual function. Thus, a given regulatory sequence, such as a promoter, operably linked to a nucleic acid sequence is capable of effecting the expression of that sequence when the proper enzymes are present. The promoter need not be contiguous with the sequence, so long as it functions to direct the expression thereof. Thus, for example, intervening untranslated yet transcribed sequences can be present between the promoter sequence and the nucleic acid sequence and the promoter sequence can still be considered "operably linked" to the coding sequence.

[0128] A number of expression systems have been described in the art, each of which typically consists of a vector containing a gene or nucleotide sequence of interest operably linked to expression control sequences. These control sequences include transcriptional promoter sequences and transcriptional start and termination sequences. The vectors of the invention may be for example, plasmid, virus or phage vectors provided with an origin of replication, optionally a promoter for the expression of the said polynucleotide and optionally a regulator of the promoter. A "plasmid" is a vector in the form of an extrachromosomal genetic element. The vectors may contain one or more selectable marker genes, for example an ampicillin resistance gene in the case of a bacterial plasmid or a resistance gene for a fungal vector. Vectors may be used in vitro, for example for the production of DNA or RNA or used to transfect or transform a host cell, for example, a mammalian host cell. The vectors may also be adapted to be used in vivo, for example to allow in vivo expression of the polypeptide.

[0129] A "promoter" is a nucleotide sequence which initiates and regulates transcription of a polypeptide-encoding polynucleotide. Promoters can include inducible promoters (where expression of a polynucleotide sequence operably linked to the promoter is induced by an analyte, cofactor, regulatory protein, etc.), repressible promoters (where expression of a polynucleotide sequence operably linked to the promoter is repressed by an analyte, cofactor, regulatory protein, etc.), and constitutive promoters. It is intended that the term "promoter" or "control element" includes full-length promoter regions and functional (e.g., controls transcription or translation) segments of these regions.

[0130] A polynucleotide, expression cassette or vector according to the present invention may additionally comprise a signal peptide sequence. The signal peptide sequence is generally inserted in operable linkage with the promoter such that the signal peptide is expressed and facilitates secretion of a polypeptide encoded by coding sequence also in operable linkage with the promoter.

[0131] Typically a signal peptide sequence encodes a peptide of 10 to 30 amino acids for example 15 to 20 amino acids. Often the amino acids are predominantly hydrophobic. In a typical situation, a signal peptide targets a growing polypeptide chain bearing the signal peptide to the endoplasmic reticulum of the expressing cell. The signal peptide is cleaved off in the endoplasmic reticulum, allowing for secretion of the polypeptide via the Golgi apparatus. Thus, a peptide of the invention may be provided to an individual by expression from cells within the individual, and secretion from those cells.

[0132] Alternatively, polynucleotides of the invention may be expressed in a suitable manner to allow presentation of a peptide of the invention by an MHC class II molecule at the surface of an antigen presenting cell. For example, a polynucleotide, expression cassette or vector of the invention may be targeted to antigen presenting cells, or the expression of encoded peptide may be preferentially stimulated or induced in such cells.

[0133] Polynucleotides of interest may be used in vitro, ex vivo or in vivo in the production of a peptide of the invention. Such polynucleotides may be administered or used in the prevention or treatment of allergy to cats by tolerisation.

[0134] Methods for gene delivery are known in the art. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,399,346, 5,580,859 and 5,589,466. The nucleic acid molecule can be introduced directly into the recipient subject, such as by standard intramuscular or intradermal injection; transdermal particle delivery; inhalation; topically, or by oral, intranasal or mucosal modes of administration. The molecule alternatively can be introduced ex vivo into cells that have been removed from a subject. For example, a polynucleotide, expression cassette or vector of the invention may be introduced into APCs of an individual ex vivo. Cells containing the nucleic acid molecule of interest are re-introduced into the subject such that an immune response can be mounted against the peptide encoded by the nucleic acid molecule. The nucleic acid molecules used in such immunization are generally referred to herein as "nucleic acid vaccines."

[0135] The polypeptides, polynucleotides, vectors or cells of the invention may be present in a substantially isolated form. They may be mixed with carriers or diluents which will not interfere with their intended use and still be regarded as substantially isolated. They may also be in a substantially purified form, in which case they will generally comprise at least 90%, e.g. at least 95%, 98% or 99%, of the proteins, polynucleotides, cells or dry mass of the preparation.

Antigen Presenting Cells (APCs)

[0136] The invention encompasses the use in vitro of a method of producing a population of APCs that present the peptides of the invention on their surface, that may be subsequently used in therapy. Such a method may be carried out ex vivo on a sample of cells that have been obtained from a patient. The APCs produced in this way therefore form a pharmaceutical agent that can be used in the treatment or prevention of cat allergy by tolerisation. The cells should be accepted by the immune system of the individual because they derive from that individual. Delivery of cells that have been produced in this way to the individual from whom they were originally obtained, thus forms a therapeutic embodiment of the invention.

Formulations and Compositions

[0137] The peptides, polynucleotides, vectors and cells of the invention may be provided to an individual either singly or in combination. Each molecule or cell of the invention may be provided to an individual in an isolated, substantially isolated, purified or substantially purified form. For example, a peptide of the invention may be provided to an individual substantially free from the other peptides.

[0138] Whilst it may be possible for the peptides, polynucleotides or compositions according to the invention to be presented in raw form, it is preferable to present them as a pharmaceutical formulation. Thus, according to a further aspect of the invention, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical formulation for use in preventing or treating allergy to cats by tolerisation comprising a composition, vector or product according to the invention together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or diluents and optionally one or more other therapeutic ingredients. The carrier (s) must be `acceptable` in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not deleterious to the recipient thereof. Typically, carriers for injection, and the final formulation, are sterile and pyrogen free. Formulation of a composition comprising the peptide, polynucleotides or cells of the invention can be carried out using standard pharmaceutical formulation chemistries and methodologies all of which are readily available to the reasonably skilled artisan.

[0139] For example, compositions containing one or more molecules or cells of the invention can be combined with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients or vehicles. Auxiliary substances, such as wetting or emulsifying agents, pH buffering substances and the like, may be present in the excipient or vehicle. These excipients, vehicles and auxiliary substances are generally pharmaceutical agents that do not induce an immune response in the individual receiving the composition, and which may be administered without undue toxicity. Pharmaceutically acceptable excipients include, but are not limited to, liquids such as water, saline, polyethyleneglycol, hyaluronic acid, glycerol and ethanol. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts can also be included therein, for example, mineral acid salts such as hydrochlorides, hydrobromides, phosphates, sulfates, and the like; and the salts of organic acids such as acetates, propionates, malonates, benzoates, and the like. A thorough discussion of pharmaceutically acceptable excipients, vehicles and auxiliary substances is available in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences (Mack Pub. Co., N.J. 1991).

[0140] Such compositions may be prepared, packaged, or sold in a form suitable for bolus administration or for continuous administration.

Typically, the concentration of each peptide in the composition will be in the range of 0.03 to 200 nmol/ml. More preferably in the range of 0.3 to 200 nmol/ml, 3 to 180 nmol/ml, 5 to 75 nmol/ml or 10 to 50 nmol/ml. The composition or formulations should have a purity of greater than 95% or 98% or a purity of at least 99%.

Therapeutic Methods and Individual to be Treated

[0144] The present invention relates to peptides, polynucleotides, vectors and cells that are capable of desensitising or tolerising human individuals to Fel d1 allergen and are therefore useful in the prevention or treatment of cat allergy. The invention provides compositions, products, vectors and formulations for use in preventing or treating allergy to cats by tolerisation. The invention also provides a method of tolerising or desensitizing a cat allergic individual comprising administering, either singly or in combination the polypeptides/polynucleotides/cells of the invention as described above.

[0145] The individual to be treated or provided with the composition or formulation of the invention is preferably human. It will be appreciated that the individual to be treated may be known to be sensitised to Fel d1 allergy, at risk of being sensitised or suspected of being sensitised. The individual can be tested for sensitisation using techniques well known in the art and as described herein. Alternatively, the individual may have a family history of allergy to cats. It may not be necessary to test an individual for sensitisation to Fel d1 because the individual may display symptoms of allergy when brought into proximity to a cat. By proximity is meant 10 metres or less, 5 metres or less, 2 metres or less, 1 metre or less, or 0 metres from the cat. Symptoms of allergy can include itchy eyes, runny nose, breathing difficulties, red itchy skin or rash.

[0146] The individual to be treated may be of any age. However, preferably, the individual may be in the age group of 1 to 90, 5 to 60, 10 to 40, or more preferably 18 to 35. Groups of individuals that are likely to benefit from the treatment are for example cat owners, veterinarians and other cat handlers.

[0147] Preferably, the individual to be treated is from a population that has MHC allele frequencies within the range of frequencies that are representative of the Caucasian population. Reference population allele frequencies for 11 common DRB1 allele families are shown in Table 3 of Example 2 (Data from HLA Facts Book, Parham and Barber). Reference frequencies were obtained by analysis of multiple studies reporting frequencies and the figures shown are mean values. Preferably therefore, the individual to be treated is from a population that has equivalent MHC allele frequencies as the reference population for the alleles referred to Table 3 (such as for at least 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or all of the alleles), for example within the ranges of those figures plus or minus 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 15 or 20%.

[0148] Preferably the individual is from a population where the allele frequencies of the following DRB1 alleles is

4--at least 9% 7--at least 10% 11--at least 8%.

[0149] The individual may have had allergy to cat for at least 2 weeks, 1 month, 6 months, 1 year or 5 years. The individual may suffer from a rash, nasal congestion, nasal discharge and/or coughing caused by the allergy. The individual may or may not have been administered with other compositions/compounds which treat cat allergy. The individual may live in a population comprising at least 0.1 cats per human habitant.

Diagnostic Method

[0150] The invention also provides a method of detecting whether an individual has or is at risk of developing a disorder, wherein the disorder comprises allergic symptoms in response to cat allergen.

[0151] The individual is typically a mammal, preferably a human. The individual to be tested in the method is preferably between the ages of 1 year and 80 years, more preferably between the ages of 1 year and 60, 50, 40, 30 or 20 years, and most preferably between the ages of 1 year and 16 years.

[0152] The individual may have been diagnosed or may be suspected of suffering from a disorder which is classified as intrinsic or non-allergic, for example, intrinsic or non-allergic asthma. The individual may lack a detectable antibody response to a cat allergen, in particular an IgE response to cat allergen. Suitable assays to detect IgE include the Pharmacia® CAP system. Using this system, the individual typically scores 0 or 0/1.

[0153] The individual may be a patient suffering from or diagnosed as suffering from symptoms which are typically associated with allergy such as itchy eyes, runny nose, breathing difficulties, red itchy skin or rash, in the absence of an identifiable trigger. The first occurrence or diagnosis of these symptoms may occur when the individual is older than 15 years of age. For example, the individual may be at least 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28 or 30 years of age at the first occurrence or diagnosis of symptoms of allergy which are typically associated with allergy.

[0154] The method of the invention concerns determining whether an individual has a T cell response to a cat allergen, in particular the major cat allergen, Fel d 1. Such a T cell response will be present in cat allergic individuals. Without being bound by any hypothesis, the inventors consider that intrinsic or non-allergic disorders are also in fact caused by a T cell-driven, IgE independent immune response. Accordingly these disorders also have an allergen trigger, but it does not give rise to allergen-specific IgE. Rather, it gives rise to a T cell response which can be characterised by T cell proliferation or the release of cytokines. For example, the cytokines released may include IL-5, which is involved in the recruitment of eosinophils. Accordingly, the T cell response can drive the induction of eosinophilic reactions in an individual.

[0155] Whether an individual has a T cell response to Fel d 1 is determined by measuring whether or not the individual has a T cell response to a peptide or combination of peptides according to the invention. Whether or not the individual has such a response may be determined by any suitable method, typically a method which can be used to detect proliferation of allergen-experienced T cells or the presence of cytokine released by allergen-experienced T cells. A positive response by the patient's T cells to the peptide or combination of the invention indicates that the patient has or is more likely to develop allergy-like symptoms in response to the allergen. A negative response indicates that the patient has allergy-like symptoms which are not caused by the cat allergen, or is less likely to develop allergy-like symptoms in response to the cat allergen.

[0156] The T cells which respond to the peptide or combination in the method are generally T cells which have been pre-sensitised in vivo to allergen. These allergen-experienced T cells are generally present in the peripheral blood of a individual, i.e. within the population of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in the individual. The T cells may be CD4 and/or CD8 T cells.

[0157] In the method the T cells can be contacted with the peptide or combination of the invention in vitro or in vivo, preferably in vitro in a sample from the individual.

[0158] Generally the T cells which are contacted in the method are taken from the individual in a blood sample, although other types of samples which contain T cells can be used. The sample may be added directly to the assay or may be processed first. Typically the processing may comprise standard techniques such as gradient centrifugation to separate the T cells, with resuspension in any suitable volume. Alternatively, the processing may comprise diluting of the sample, for example with water, buffer or media. The sample may be diluted from 1.5 to 100 fold, for example 2 to 50 or 5 to 10 fold.

[0159] The processing may comprise separation of components of the sample. Typically mononuclear cells (MCs) are separated from the samples. The MCs will comprise the T cells and antigen presenting cells (APCs). Thus in the method the APCs present in the separated MCs can present the peptide to the T cells. In another embodiment only T cells, such as only CD4 T cells, can be purified from the sample. PBMCs, MCs and T cells can be separated from the sample using techniques known in the art.

[0160] Preferably the T cells used in the assay are in the form of unprocessed or diluted samples, are freshly isolated T cells (such as in the form of freshly isolated MCs or PBMCs) which are used directly ex vivo, i.e. they are not cultured before being used in the method or are thawed cells (which were previously frozen). However the T cells can be cultured before use, for example in the presence of the allergen, and generally also exogenous growth promoting cytokines. During culturing the allergen is typically present on the surface of APCs, such as the APC used in the method. Pre-culturing of the T cells may lead to an increase in the sensitivity of the method. Thus the T cells can be converted into cell lines, such as short term cell lines.

[0161] The APC which is typically present in the method may come from the same individual as the T cell or from a different individual. The APC may be a naturally occurring APC or an artificial APC. The APC is a cell which is capable of presenting the antigen to a T cell. It is typically a B-cell, dendritic cell or macrophage. It is typically separated from the same sample as the T cell and is typically co-purified with the T cell. Thus the APC may be present in MCs or PBMCs. The APC is typically a freshly isolated ex vivo cell or a cultured cell. It may be in the form of a cell line, such as a short term or immortalised cell line. The APC may express empty MHC class II molecules on its surface.

[0162] In one embodiment the peptide or combination of the invention is added directly to an assay comprising T cells and APCs. As discussed above the T cells and APCs in such an assay could be in the form of MCs.

[0163] In one embodiment the peptide or combination of peptides is provided to the APC in the absence of the T cell. The APC is then provided to the T cell, typically after being allowed to present the allergen on its surface. The peptide or combination of peptides may have been taken up inside the APC and presented, or simply be taken up onto the surface without entering inside the APC.

[0164] Typically 10⁵ to 10⁷, preferably 2.5×10⁵ to 10⁶ PBMCs are added to each assay. In the case where the peptide or combination or peptides is added directly to the assay it is typically added as a peptide with a concentration from 10^-1 to 10³ μg/ml, preferably 0.5 to 50 μg/ml or 1 to 10 μg/ml.

[0165] Typically the length of time for which the T cells are incubated with the peptide or combination is from 4 to 24 hours (preferably 5 to 18 hours) for effector T cells or for more than 24 hours for central memory cells. When using ex vivo PBMCs it has been found that 5.0×10⁶ PBMCs can be incubated in 10 μg/ml of peptide for 5 hours at 37° C.

[0166] Proliferation of the incubated T cells may be measured by any suitable method. For example by flow cytometric measurement of incorporation of the fluorescent compound CFSE following incubation with peptide, or by measuring incorporation of the radiolabelled compound ³H-thymidine following incubation with peptide. A typical example of the latter method is as follows:

[0167] 100 μl of the appropriate peptide concentration is distributed into the appropriate wells of 96 well plates. The plates are then placed into a humidified 5% CO₂ incubator set at 37° C. for a maximum of 4 hours. PBMC's isolated as standard in the art are prepared to a concentration of 2×10⁶ cells/ml in complete medium at room temperature. 100 μl of cell solution is then distributed into each of the wells of the 96 well plates containing antigen/peptide. The plates are then incubated for 6 to 8 days. The cultures are pulsed with tritiated thymidine solution by adding 10 μl of tritiated thymidine stock solution (1.85 MBq/ml in serum-free RPMI medium) to each well. The plates are then returned to the incubator for between 8 and 16 hours. Cultures are then harvested on to filter mats and dried filter mats are counted using an appropriate beta scintillation counter. Counts from wells containing peptide are compared statistically to wells containing media alone (12 wells per group). A statistically significant difference between media only wells and peptide-stimulated wells is considered a positive stimulation of PBMC's by the peptide or combination of peptides.

[0168] Cytokine release may be measured by any suitable method such as ELISA assay as described above. Such methods are well known in the art.

Combination Immunotherapy

[0169] Since many individuals are allergic, or may require desensitizing to several polypeptide antigens, the current invention also provides means of desensitizing individuals that are allergic to multiple antigens. "Tolerance" induced in an individual to a first polypeptide antigen or allergen can create in the individual a "tolergeneic environment" wherein inappropriate immune responses to other antigens can be downregulated in order to provide tolerance to other antigens.

[0170] This finding means that individuals allergic to multiple allergens can be treated in a greatly reduced time period, and that individuals seriously allergic to some allergens (e.g., peanuts) but more mildly allergic to other allergens (e.g., cat dander) can benefit from a therapy wherein tolerance to the milder allergen is established and then this tolergeneic environment is used to provide tolerance to the other, more extreme allergen. In addition, individuals suffering from an autoimmune disorder who are additionally sensitised (or otherwise immune) to an unrelated antigen or allergen can benefit from a treatment regime wherein tolerance to the unrelated antigen or allergen is first established and then this tolergeneic environment is used to provide tolerance to the autoantigen associated with the autoimmune disorder.

[0171] A method is therefore provided for desensitising a cat allergic individual to Feld1 antigen and one or more further different polypeptide antigens. The method entails, in a first step, administering to the individual a composition/product/formulation (primary composition) according to the invention as described herein and wherein the administration is carried out in a manner sufficient to generate a hyporesponsive state against the Feld1 antigen. Once a hyporesponsive state has been established toward Feld1 antigen, or at least a shift toward desensitisation has occurred, the method entails administration of a secondary composition comprising a second, different polypeptide antigen to which the individual is to be sensitised. Administration of the secondary composition is carried out in such a way as to take advantage of the tolergeneic environment established by use of the primary composition, where it is now possible to establish tolerance to the second, different polypeptide antigen. The secondary composition is coadministered with either the first primary composition or a larger fragment of Feld1. By "coadministered" it is meant either the simultaneous or concurrent administration, e.g., when the two are present in the same composition or administered in separate compositions at nearly the same time but at different sites, as well as the delivery of polypeptide antigens in separate compositions at different times. For example, the secondary composition may be delivered prior to or subsequent to delivery of the first composition (or a larger fragment of Feld1) at the same or a different site. The timing between deliveries can range from about several seconds apart to about several minutes apart, several hours apart, or even several days apart. Furthermore, different delivery methods can be employed.

[0172] The second polypeptide antigen is preferably an allergen different to Feld1 allergen. Suitable allergens for use in the methods of the invention can of course be obtained and/or produced using known methods. Classes of suitable allergens include, but are not limited to, pollens, animal dander other than cat dander, grasses, molds, dusts, antibiotics, stinging insect venoms, and a variety of environmental (including chemicals and metals), drug and food allergens. Common tree allergens include pollens from cottonwood, popular, ash, birch, maple, oak, elm, hickory, and pecan trees; common plant allergens include those from mugwort, ragweed, English plantain, sorrel-dock and pigweed; plant contact allergens include those from poison oak, poison ivy and nettles; common grass allergens include rye grass, Timothy, Johnson, Bermuda, fescue and bluegrass allergens; common allergens can also be obtained from molds or fungi such as Alternaria, Fusarium, Hormodendrum, Aspergillus, Micropolyspora, Mucor and thermophilic actinomycetes; epidermal allergens can be obtained from house or organic dusts (typically fungal in origin), from arthropods such as house mites (Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus), or from animal sources such as feathers, and dog dander; common food allergens include milk and cheese (diary), egg, wheat, nut (e.g., peanut), seafood (e.g., shellfish), pea, bean and gluten allergens; common environmental allergens include metals (nickel and gold), chemicals (formaldehyde, trinitrophenol and turpentine), Latex, rubber, fiber (cotton or wool), burlap, hair dye, cosmetic, detergent and perfume allergens; common drug allergens include local anesthetic and salicylate allergens; antibiotic allergens include penicillin, tetracycline and sulfonamide allergens; and common insect allergens include bee, wasp and ant venom, and cockroach calyx allergens. Particularly well characterized allergens include, but are not limited to, the major and cryptic epitopes of the Der p I allergen (Hoyne et al. (1994) Immunology 83190-195), bee venom phospholipase A2 (PLA) (Akdis et al. (1996) J. Clin. Invest. 98:1676-1683), birch pollen allergen Bet v 1 (Bauer et al. (1997) Clin. Exp. Immunol. 107:536-541), and the multi-epitopic recombinant grass allergen rKBG8.3 (Cao et al. (1997) Immunology 90:46-51). These and other suitable allergens are commercially available and/or can be readily prepared as extracts following known techniques.

Delivery Methods

[0192] Once formulated the compositions of the invention can be delivered to a subject in vivo using a variety of known routes and techniques. For example, a composition can be provided as an injectable solution, suspension or emulsion and administered via parenteral, subcutaneous, epidermal, intradermal, intramuscular, intraarterial, intraperitoneal, intravenous injection using a conventional needle and syringe, or using a liquid jet injection system. Compositions can also be administered topically to skin or mucosal tissue, such as nasally, intratracheally, intestinal, rectally or vaginally, or provided as a finely divided spray suitable for respiratory or pulmonary administration. Other modes of administration include oral administration, suppositories, sublingual administration, and active or passive transdermal delivery techniques.

[0193] Where a peptide of the invention is to be administered, it is preferred to administer the peptide to a site in the body where it will have the ability to contact suitable antigen presenting cells, and where it, or they, will have the opportunity to contact T cells of the individual. Where an APC is to be administered, it is preferred to administer the APC to a site in the body where it will have the ability to contact, and activate, suitable T cells of the individual.

Delivery Regimes

[0194] Administration of the peptides/polynucleotides/cells (such as the composition containing a plurality of peptides) may be by any suitable method as described above. Suitable amounts of the peptide may be determined empirically, but typically are in the range given below. A single administration of each peptide may be sufficient to have a beneficial effect for the patient, but it will be appreciated that it may be beneficial if the peptide is administered more than once, in which case typical administration regimes may be, for example, once or twice a week for 2-4 weeks every 6 months, or once a day for a week every four to six months. As will be appreciated, each peptide or polynucleotide, or combination of peptides and/or polynucleotides may be administered to a patient singly or in combination.

[0195] Dosages for administration will depend upon a number of factors including the nature of the composition, the route of administration and the schedule and timing of the administration regime. Suitable doses of a molecule or a combination of molecules of the invention may be in the order of upto 10 μg, up to 15 μg, up to 20 μg, up to 25 μg, up to 30 μg, up to 35 μg, up to 50 μg, up to 100 μg, up to 500 μg or more per administration. Suitable doses may be less than 15 μg, but at least 1 ng, or at least 2 ng, or at least 5 ng, or at least 50 ng, or least 100 ng, or at least 500 ng, or at least 1 μg, or at least 10 μg. For some molecules or combinations of the invention, the dose used may be higher, for example, up to 1 mg, up to 2 mg, up to 3 mg, up to 4 mg, up to 5 mg or higher. Such doses may be provided in a liquid formulation, at a concentration suitable to allow an appropriate volume for administration by the selected route. It will be understood that the above doses refer to total dose in the case of a combination of molecules. For example, "up to 35 μg" refers to a total peptide concentration of up to 35 μg in a composition comprising a combination of more than one peptide.

Binding Conditions for MHC Binding Assays

[0199] EBV homozygous cell lines were used as sources of human HLA class II molecules (Tab. 4). HLA-DR molecules were purified by affinity chromatography using the monomorphic Mab L243 (ATCC, Rockville, USA) coupled to protein A sepharose CL 4B gel (Pharmacia, France). Briefly, cells were lysed on ice at 5×108 cells/ml in 150 mM NaCl, 10 mM Tris HCl pH=8.3 buffer containing 1% Nonidet P40 (NP40), 10 mg/l aprotinin, 5 mM EDTA and 10 mM PMSF. After centrifugation at 100 000 g for 1 h, the supernatant was applied to a sepharose 4B and protein A-sepharose 4B columns and then to the specific affinity column. HLA-DR molecules were eluted with 1.1 mM n-dodecyl b-D-maltoside (DM), 500 mM NaCl and 500 mM Na2CO3 pH=11.5. Fractions were immediately neutralized to pH=7 with 2 M Tris HCl pH=6.8 buffer and extensively dialysed against 1 mM DM, 150 mM NaCl, 10 mM phosphate pH=7 buffer. For HLA-DR molecules beyond lot number 40 the 1 mM DM in dialysis buffer was replaced by 1 mM NOGP.

[0200] HLA-DR molecules were diluted in 10 mM phosphate, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM DM, 10 mM citrate, 0.003% thimerosal buffer with an appropriate biotinylated peptide and serial dilutions of competitor peptides. Binding conditions of each molecule are detailed in Tab 4. Samples (100 μl per well) were incubated in 96-wells polypropylene plates (Nunc, Denmark) at 37° C. for 24 h to 72 h. After neutralization with 50 μl of 450 mM Tris HCl pH=7.5, 0.003% thimerosal, 0.3% BSA, 1 mM DM buffer, samples were applied to 96-well maxisorp ELISA plates (Nunc, Denmark) previously coated with 10 mg/ml L243 Mab and saturated with 100 mM Tris HCl pH=7.5, 0.3% BSA, 0.003% thimerosal buffer. They were allowed to bind to the antibody-coated plates for 2 h at room temperature. Bound biotinylated peptide was detected by incubating streptavidine-alkaline phosphatase conjugate (Amersham, U.K.), and after washings, by adding 4-methylumbelliferyl phosphate substrate (Sigma, France). Emitted fluorescence was measured at 450 nm upon excitation at 365 nm on a Wallac Victor2 1420 multilabel counter fluorimeter (Perkin Elmer). Maximal binding was determined by incubating the biotinylated peptide with the MHC II molecule in the absence of competitor. Binding specificity was assessed by adding an excess of non biotinylated peptide. Background did not significantly differ from that obtained by incubating the biotinylated peptide without MHC II molecules. Data were expressed as the peptide concentration that prevented binding of 50% of the labeled peptide (IC50). Binding ability was then evaluated relative to known strong binding control (reference) peptide. Suitable reference peptides for the HLA alleles tested in these experiments are: DR1 (DRB1*0101 allele): HA 306-318 (PKYVKQNTLKLAT); DR3 (DRB1*0301 allele): MT216 (AKTIAYDEEARRGLE); DR4 (DRB1*0401 allele): HA 306-318 (PKYVKQNTLKLAT); DR7 (DRB1*0701 allele): YKL (AAYAAAKAAALAA); DRB1*1101: HA 306-318 (PKYVKQNTLKLAT); DR13 (DRB1*1301 allele): B1 21-36 (TERVRLVTRHIYNREE); DR15 (DRB1*1501 allele): A3 152-166 (EAEQLRRAYLDGTGVE); DRB4 (DRB4*0101 allele): E2/E7 (AGDLLAIETDKATI); and DRB5 (DRB5*0101 allele): HA 306-318 (PKYVKQNTLKLAT).

Results

[0201] Binding and non-binding peptides were first discriminated on the basis of an upper 1000 nM threshold as it is generally described in the literature (Southwood et al (1998). J Immunol 160:3363; Geluk et al (1998) Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 95:10797), but are additionally assessed by comparison to reference peptides. The reference peptides are selected from among the best binding peptides of each given HLA molecule. Relative to the reference peptides, a peptide is a weak binder for a given HLA molecule if it has an IC50 more than 100 fold lower than the reference peptide for the given HLA molecule. A peptide is a moderate binder is it has an IC50 more than 20 fold lower but less than a 100 fold lower than the reference peptide for the given HLA molecule. A peptide is a strong binder if it has an IC50 less than 20 fold lower than the reference peptide for the given HLA molecule.

Analysis of Preferred Peptide Mixtures

[0202] The nine HLA alleles used for these experiments encompass a high proportion of the Caucasian population. (Reference frequencies of HLA alleles in the population are provided in Table 3 of Example 2). Accordingly, combinations of peptides were evaluated to determine which would give the broadest coverage of different HLA molecules. The target criteria for a mixture was therefore defined as follows: For a given HLA molecule, a mixture must comprise either 2 strong binding peptides and 1 moderate binding peptide, or 1 strong binding peptide and 3 moderate binding peptides. Preferred mixtures achieve these criteria for all nine tested HLA types. Only the peptides with sequences corresponding to SEQ ID NOS: 1 to 12 were considered in this analysis as peptides with sequences corresponding to SEQ ID NOS: 13 to 16 were found to be poorly soluble. From SEQ ID NOS: 1 to 12 there are over 3000 possible combinations of peptides which could potentially fulfill the target criteria set out above.

[0203] To enable visualization of these combinations, a binary scoring system was applied such that for each HLA type, where a combination of peptides achieves one of the above criteria a score of "1" was entered and where the criteria were not met a score of "0" is entered. The scores across all HLA types are then added up, such that a mixture which fulfills the criteria for none of the HLA types will score 0, whereas a mixture which fulfills the criteria for all nine HLA types scores 9. The scores for each peptide combination are plotted in FIG. 2 A to Q. The highest score of nine was achieved by the 10 mixtures shown below:

[0204] Thus theses mixtures are preferred combinations of peptides for use in vaccination.

Cross-Sectional Screening of Cat Allergic Subjects for T Cell Responses and Basophil Histamine Release by Fel d 1-Derived, MHC Characterised T Cell Peptide Epitopes

1. INTRODUCTION

[0205] 1.1 Histamine release assay

[0206] The purpose of this assay was to identify individual peptides that are capable of activating blood basophils (as a surrogate for tissue mast cells) resulting in histamine release that may result in allergic reactions during therapy. Peptides or combinations of peptides that induce histamine release frequently may be considered unsuitable for inclusion in the peptide vaccine.

[0207] Histamine release requires the crosslinking of adjacent specific IgE molecules on the surface of the basophil. The peptides being evaluated were small (13 to 17 amino acids in length) and should not, therefore, possess significant tertiary structure that would enable them to retain the conformation of an IgE-binding epitope of the whole molecule. Furthermore, peptide monomers in solution, even if they are hound by IgE, should not be able to crosslink adjacent IgE molecules. It should be noted however, that some of the peptides contain cysteine residues that may result in disulphide bond formation between single peptides and also between different peptides in a mixture. Thus, dimers of peptides may be generated that may have IgE crosslinking potential In the present analysis, no excipients were used in peptide formulation to prevent or reduce dimer formation through disulphide linkage.

[0208] Histamine release from fresh peripheral whole blood from cat allergic subjects was evaluated. Peripheral blood basophils were used as a surrogate for tissue mast cells which were not practical to assay. Blood was incubated in vitro with 9 individual peptides from the sequence of the major cat allergen Fel d 1 (SEQ ID NOS: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 11 and 12). These peptides were selected as potential T cell epitopes following peptide-MHC binding assays as explained in Example 1. Additionally, responses to a preferred mixtures of a mixture of 7 peptides identified in Example 1 were analysed. The tested preferred mixture of 7 peptides consisted of the peptides of SEQ ID NOS: 1 to 7. Histamine release in response to whole cat dander allergen extract acted as a positive control.

1.2 Proliferation Assay

[0209] The purpose of the proliferation assay was to determine the percentage of the population that responded to each individual peptide/back-up peptide and the preferred mixture of 7 peptides.

1.3 Cytokine Assays

[0210] The purpose of the cytokine assays was two-fold; (1) to determine the percentage of the population that responded to each individual peptide and the preferred mixture of 7 peptides, and (2) to identify individual peptides possessing intrinsic Th2 (IL-13)-inducing characteristics which would be undesirable in a peptide vaccine for allergic disease, and also to identify individual peptides possessing intrinsic IL-10-inducing characteristics which may be beneficial for a peptide vaccine for allergic disease.

2. MATERIALS AND METHODS

2.1 Isolation of Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells

[0211] Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated from the heparinised blood sample obtained from the subject. PBMC's were isolated by Ficoll-Hypaque density gradient separation. Once isolated, the cells were used in the cell proliferation assay, histamine release and ELISA assay and the cytokine release assay.

2.2 Histamine Release Assay and Histamine ELISA

[0212] Assays were performed on PBMC (which contain basophils). Each peptide and combinations of peptides was compared with whole allergen molecules in a histamine release assay. Histamine concentrations were measured by ELISA.

[0213] The assay required 3×10⁶ PBMC's per subject. The assay was performed using the Immunotech Histamine Release Immunoassay kit according to the manufacturer's instructions. Following the histamine release assay, acylated samples were tested by histamine ELISA. The histamine ELISA used 50 μl of the 100 μl acylated sample generated by the histamine release assay. The remaining 50 μl of sample was retained, by freezing at -20° C. until the data analysis section of the ELISA has been completed. Once the results had been analysed and the ELISA performed in a satisfactory manner, the samples were discarded.

[0214] Peptides were assayed for their ability to induce histamine release over a 5 log₁₀ range (10 μg/ml to 1 ng/ml). The concentration range assayed was selected based on theoretical in vivo doses of peptide that may be achieved during therapy. For example, a 10 μg dose of peptide entering a blood volume of 5 litres, would result in a blood concentration of 2 ng/ml (2×10^-6 mg/ml), at the lower end of the histamine release assay dose range. Whole cat dander extract (C.B.F. LETI) was used as a positive control for release over a slightly higher concentration range (100 μg to 10 ng/ml). Single measurements (i.e. not duplicate or triplicate) were performed for each dilution. One duplicate blood sample was assayed for spontaneous histamine release and the mean value of these samples was subtracted from all peptide/allergen results.

[0215] After completion of the histamine ELISA, individual histamine levels were determined by interpolation for the standard curve generated in the ELISA assay. Results from samples were adjusted to allow for any dilution of the samples. Where two or more dilutions of a peptide/allergen preparation elicited 10% or more histamine release above background, or where a single value of 10% or more above background was achieved at the highest concentration tested, this was considered a "positive histamine release".

2.3 Cell Proliferation Assay

[0216] The cell proliferation assay was performed on PBMC's (140×10⁶ cells required for all parameters to be tested). Proliferation was measured by the incorporation of the radiolabelled compound ³H-thymidine.

[0217] In more detail, 100 μl of the appropriate antigen or peptide concentration was distributed into the appropriate wells of 96 well plates. The plates were then placed into a humidified 5% CO₂ incubator set at 37° C. for a maximum of 4 hours. PBMC's isolated as described above were prepared to a concentration of 2×10⁶ cells/ml in complete medium at room temperature. 100 μl of cell solution was then distributed into each of the wells of the 96 well plates containing antigen/peptide. The plates were then incubated for 6 to 8 days. The cultures were pulsed with tritiated thymidine solution by adding 10 μl of tritiated thymidine stock solution (1.85 MBq/ml in serum-free RPMI medium) to each well. The plates were then returned to the incubator for between 8 and 16 hours. Cultures were then harvested using a Canberra Packard FilterMate 196 cell harvester. Dried filter mats were counted using an appropriate beta scintillation counter.

[0218] Counts from wells containing peptide were compared statistically to wells containing media alone (12 wells per group). The non-parametric Mann-Whitney test was used. The same statistical test was used for all subjects. A statistically significant difference between media only wells and peptide-stimulated wells was considered a positive stimulation of PBMC's by the peptide.

2.4 Cytokine Release Assay

[0219] Cytokine secretion profiles from PBMC's was analysed in response to the peptide stimulation. Supernatants from the cytokine release assay were tested for the presence of 3 cytokines, IFN-γ, IL-10 and IL-13, using ELISA assays.

[0220] The cytokine release assay required 40×10⁶ PBMC's per subject. In more detail, 250 μl of a 200 μg/ml solution of the appropriate antigen or peptide concentration was distributed into the appropriate wells of 48 well plates. Plates were the incubated in a humidified 5% CO₂ incubator at 37° C. for a maximum of 4 hours. 250 μl of a 5×10⁶ cell/ml PBMC suspension was then added to each well and the plates returned to the incubator for 5 days.

[0221] Following stimulation, samples of culture supernatant were harvested into 3 aliquots and frozen until the ELISA assays could be performed. One aliquot was tested for the presence of one cytokine (therefore all 3 aliquots were required to test for the 3 cytokines). The cytokine levels in the samples were determined by interpolation from standard curves also generated in the assay.

Thus the two numbers cannot simply be added as they are for cat dander extract and the peptide mixture. Similarly, values for individual peptide release cannot be added to values for the mixture of peptides since 2 of the subjects with histamine release to the mixture also had release to individual peptides.

[0223] Histamine release from peripheral blood basophils was observed in response to both positive control and peptides. Table 1 shows the percentage of individuals in which histamine release (as defined by the acceptance criteria) occurred. Histamine release to one or more individual peptide occurred frequently but this rarely translated into histamine release from the mixture of 7 preferred peptides. However, a total of 5% of individuals displayed histamine release in response to the peptide mixture. The details of dose and number of consecutive doses of peptide mixture that elicit release of histamine are relevant to the interpretation of these results and are discussed in more detail below.

Table 2 shows the number of individuals in whom histamine release was detected in response to each individual peptide. MLA15 and MLA16 most commonly released histamine.

3.2 Proliferation Assay Overview

[0224] FIG. 3 summarises proliferative responses to peptides and antigens. The percentage of individuals mounting a detectable proliferative response is shown in the black bars. Grey (weak), white (moderate) and hashed (strong) bars provide a breakdown of the quality of these responses. Quality is arbitrarily defined by Stimulation Index (SI: ratio of counts in the presence of antigen/peptide divided by counts in medium alone). Thus for peptide 1 (MLA01), 12% of subjects made a proliferative response and of these 92% were weak, none were moderate and 8% were high. Proliferative responses to individual peptides/antigens were variable (black bar). 92% of subjects had positive proliferative responses to the positive control antigen PPD. The majority of these were strong responses (hashed bar). 75% of subjects responded to cat dander extract, with 59% of the responses (i.e. 59% of the 75%) being weak. The response to the mixture of 7 preferred peptides (SEQ ID NOS: 1 TO 7) was almost identical to cat dander extract (CAT). Peptides MLA15 and MLA16 induced more frequent responses that four of the preferred peptides. However, MLA15 and MLA16 induced the most frequent basophil histamine release responses (see section 3.1). Few individual peptides induced strong proliferative responses as expected (low precursor frequency of peptide-specific precursor T cells).

3.3 Cytokine Assay Overview

[0225] FIG. 4 summarises the percentage of individuals who mounted a detectable response to each of the peptides/antigens by production of the three cytokines measured. The black bars represent production of IFN-γ, the grey bars IL-13 and the white bars IL-10. The positive control antigen PPD elicited a cytokine production in almost all individuals (IFN-γ: 91%, IL-13: 97% and IL-10: 96%). Whole cat allergen and the mixture of 7 peptides elicited a cytokine response in approximately 80% or more of subjects. Individual peptides elicited responses of differing frequency. In general cytokine production appeared to be a more sensitive method of detecting responses with larger percentages of individuals giving positive cytokine responses than proliferative responses. In most cases, IL-10 secretion was detected in the largest number of subjects and IFN-γ detected least frequently.

[0227] Tissue typing was performed in order to ensure that the study population (predominantly Caucasian) was representative of the general Caucasian population in which the vaccine will be used. Eleven common DRB1 allele families are shown. Allele frequencies in 102 typed study subjects are shown, not the percentage of individuals expressing an allele, since each individual has two DRB1 alleles and some individuals are homozygous for particular alleles. Reference population allele frequencies are also shown for comparison (Data from HLA Facts Book, Parham & Barber). Reference frequencies were obtained by analysis of multiple studies reporting frequencies and the figures shown are mean values. All of the frequencies detected in the current analysis were within the ranges reported in the reference data. Therefore the population examined in the current study is representative of a Caucasian population.

[0229] A total of 94 histamine release assays were completed during the study. Of these 13 assays were rejected, mainly due to unacceptably high levels of spontaneous release. Assays with spontaneous histamine release of 20% or more of the total histamine release were rejected. Those assays with a spontaneous release of between 10% and 20% are indicated in Table 4. All other assays had spontaneous release values of less than 10%.

[0230] Approximately 78% of the subjects assayed demonstrated positive histamine release to the sensitising allergen. Existing literature reports 10-20% of allergic individuals being resistant to allergen-induced basophil histamine release.

[0231] Histamine release was considered positive if (a) the highest concentration of peptide alone induced release of 10% or more of the total release value or (b) if two consecutive values were 10% or more of the total release. Approximately 31% (25/81) of subjects showed histamine release to one or more individual peptide. Of these, 6/81 (7.4%) had not positive control release to whole cat allergen extract.

[0232] In two individuals the mixture of 7 peptides also induced histamine release in addition to certain individual peptides. In two further individuals, only the mixture of 7 peptides induced release. Thus, 4/81 individuals (˜5%) displayed histamine release with the mixture of peptides.

[0233] Subject 044 showed release (28% of total release) at the highest concentration (10 ug/ml) of peptide only. Subject 055 showed release at 0.1 ug/ml (72% of total) and 1 ug/ml (47% of total) only. Subject 056 showed release at 0.01 ug/ml (11%), 0.1 ug/ml (12%), 1.0 ug/ml (17%) and 10 ug/ml (10 ug/ml). Subject 103 showed histamine release (33%) at the highest concentration (10 ug/ml) of peptide only.

4.2 Proliferation Assay

[0234] For the proliferation assay, individual proliferation data for all subjects and all peptide concentrations was analysed. Stimulation indices to each peptide/antigen were summarised for the entire population of 100 subjects.

[0235] Complex antigens such as cat dander extract and PPD induce significant proliferative responses in the population as a whole. The peptides that induce significant responses are those that elicit proliferative responses in a larger percentage of the population.

[0236] Stimulation indices of less than 1 arise when counts in wells containing peptides are lower than those containing culture medium alone. Such an effect may be attributable to slight changes in pH upon the addition of peptides which are prepared in acid solution. The absence of a proliferative response to the peptide would then result in counts slightly lower than those in the medium alone wells.

4.3 Cytokine Release Assay

[0237] FIGS. 4 to 7 show, for each peptide/antigen, the percentage of individuals who made a response of any detectable magnitude (i.e. production of detectable IFN-γ, IL-13 or IL-10). The strength of those responses is then split into four levels of cytokine production. For example, 35% of the study population may have made an IFN-γ response. Of that 35% of individuals, half (50%) made a very weak response, 20% a weak response, 15% a moderate response and 15% a strong response (giving a total of 100% of the responders). The boundaries of each cytokine level were arbitrarily assigned based on the detection range of the ELISA assay. The boundaries are different between IFN-γ/IL-10 and IL-13 since for IFN-γ and IL-10 the detection range was approximately 1-100 pg/ml whereas the range for the IL-13 assay was approximately 0.5-50 pg/ml.

4.3.1 Interferon-γProduction

[0238] FIG. 5 shows the percentage of individuals producing IFN-γ and the strength of the response following cell culture with peptide/antigen. IFN-γ responses were detected between 26-44% of subjects in response to individual peptides. These responses were predominantly very low to low to moderate. Complex antigens induced more frequent responses (peptide mixture 80%, cat dander 79%, PPD 91%). These responses were low to moderate to high. PPD responses were particularly high (89 of PPD responses were above 100 pg/ml).

4.3.2 IL-13 Production

[0239] FIG. 6 demonstrates the percentage of individuals producing IL-13 and strength of the response following cell culture with peptide/antigen. IL-13 responses were detected in between 33-68% of subjects in response to individual peptides. These responses were predominantly very low to low, although a significant number of moderate responses were detected. This may reflect the Th2 nature of allergic sensitisation in these subjects. Complex antigens induced more frequent responses (peptide mixture 85%, cat dander 93%, PPD 97%). These responses were low to moderate to high.

4.3.3 IL-10 Production

[0240] FIG. 7 demonstrates the percentage of individuals producing IL-10 and strength of the response following cell culture with peptide/antigen. IL-10 responses were detected in between 46-75% of subjects in response to individual peptides. These responses were predominantly very low to low. Complex antigens induced more frequent responses (peptide mixture 93%, cat dander 96%, PPD 96%). These responses were low to moderate. Very few "high" IL-10 responses were observed.

5. DISCUSSION

5.1 Histamine Release Assay

[0241] In interpreting the histamine release results it is important to consider several points relating to the assay design:

[0242] 1) The estimated blood dose of peptides that will be achieved during treatment lies towards the bottom of the dose response curve employed in the assay. For example, a 10 ug dose of peptide entering a blood volume of 5 litres, would result in a blood concentration of 2 ng/ml (2×10^-6 mg/ml; this assumes that no peptide is degraded which is unlikely). This concentration is just above the lower dose limit of the assay (1 ng/ml). The 2 lowest concentrations of peptide used in the assay correspond approximately to injected doses of 5 μg (1 ng/ml) and 50 μg (10 ng/ml). Thus, the assay is designed to detect histamine release at or above doses of peptide used for therapy. In only 3 instances was histamine release associated with the lowest two (consecutive values above 10%) concentrations of peptide. In two of these cases values were less than 11%. The 7 peptide mixture did not show any release at the lowest 2 concentrations of peptide. Thus, although histamine release in response to individual peptides or the mixture was relatively common, it was generally not seen at the concentrations of peptide that will be achieved during therapy.

[0243] 2) For reasons of cost and complexity, only single wells were assayed for each concentration of peptide. This increases the risk that any one value may be spurious. This is particularly relevant to the second condition defined for a positive result; that the highest concentration alone of peptide/antigen shows release of 10% or more of the total release. Several cases of histamine release to individual peptides were only associated with the single highest concentration of peptide and this was also true for 2/4 individuals with histamine release triggered by the mixture of 7 peptides.

[0244] 3) In some cases, histamine release from peptides was not associated with histamine release from cat dander extract (absence of positive control).

[0245] 4) Peptides with cysteine residues (MLA01, MLA04, MLA05, MLA12 and MLA15) were previously shown to be capable of varying degrees of homo-dimerisation. Although not formally quantified, these peptides when mixed are likely to also form hetero-dimers (i.e. within the SEQ ID NOS: 1 TO 7 mixture). Dimers may be sufficient to crosslink IgE molecules on the surface of mast cells and basophils giving rise to histamine release. No excipients to reduce disulphide bond formation between homologous of heterologous peptides were used in this study. Clinical preparations of the vaccine will contain thioglycerol to block disulphide bond formation.

[0246] Approximately 78% of the subjects assayed demonstrated positive histamine release to the sensitising allergen. This is slightly lower than reports in the literature which suggest that 10-20% of allergic individuals are resistant to allergen-induced basophil histamine release.

[0247] 30.9% of subjects showed histamine release to one or more individual peptide. Histamine release was also detected in 5% of subjects (4/81) to the mixture of 7 peptides (SEQ ID NOS: 1 TO 7; likely vaccine candidates). Two of these 4 individuals displayed release to individual peptides and 2 did not. In several subjects showing histamine release to individual peptides (6/81; 7.4%), release only occurred with peptide MLA15 or MLA16, which are not included in the SEQ ID NOS: 1 TO 7 mixture. MLA16 was the peptide most frequently associated with histamine release. Adjusting values for individual peptide release to include only those peptides in the preferred 7 vaccine candidates, 23.5% of subjects displayed histamine release to individual components of the vaccine.

5.2 Proliferation Assay

[0248] Proliferation of PBMC was assayed in response to culture with 3 concentrations of individual peptides, a mixture of 7 peptides (selected by MHC binding assays) and whole cat dander allergen extract. Responses to PPD at a single concentration were also measured as a marker of a positive recall response.

[0249] PPD responses: 92% of subjects mounted a detectable proliferative response to PPD. The response is largely dependent upon prior vaccination with BCG. Non-responders may have originated from countries in which BCG is not mandatory (e.g. USA), or may not have received the immunisation for other reasons. The majority of responses (92%) resulted in an SI of greater than 10. These were arbitrarily assigned as "strong" responses.

[0250] Cat dander allergen extract responses: 75% of subjects mounted a detectable proliferative response to cat dander allergen extract. More frequent responses were detected through measurement of cytokines highlighting the importance of assaying multiple parameters of activation to determine reactivity. The majority of responses were weak (SI 2-5; 59%) although significant numbers of moderate (SI 5-10; 24%) and strong (SI 10+; 17%) were observed.

[0251] Peptide mixture (P1-7): 71% of subjects mounted a response to the peptide mixture, similar to cat dander allergen extract. A similar percentage of weak (52%), moderate (34%) and strong (14%) responses were observed. Proliferative responses to cat dander allergen extract and peptide mixture correlated closely indicating that the majority of T cell reactivity to cat dander can be accounted for by the epitopes contained within the peptide mixture.

[0252] Individual peptide responses: Proliferative responses to individual peptides were generally weak to moderate. Most peptides generated 70-80% of their responses in the weak category with 20-30% in the moderate category. Few peptide elicited strong responses. Weaker responses to individual peptides than to complex antigens or mixtures of peptides is an expected finding resulting from lower precursor frequencies of T cells specific for individual epitopes.

[0253] The strongest proliferative responses to an individual peptide were to P12 from Fel d 1 chain 2 (43%) and the weakest to P4 from chain 1 (6%). However, cytokine responses to all peptides were detected more frequently than proliferative responses.

5.3 Cytokine Assays

[0254] Cytokine measurement proved to be the most sensitive method of measuring responses to the peptides. Generally a higher percentage of subjects displayed measurable cytokine responses compared to measurable proliferative responses. Production of each of the three cytokines varied with IL-10 generally being produced by a greater proportion of subjects than IL-13 and IFN-γ. The lowest frequency of response was detected with IFN-γ. The atopic allergic status of these subjects is likely to mean that the memory T cell response to Fel d 1 and its epitopes will be dominated by Th2 responses which may account for the less frequent Th1 (IFN-γ) response. The high frequency of IL-10 responses was a surprise. IL-10 is considered to be a Th2 cytokine in the murine system but this is not well established in the human system. IL-10 is generally regarded as a regulatory/immunosuppressive cytokine. Previous reports have suggested that some peptide sequences may have intrinsic IL-10 inducing properties. Such peptides were not observed in this study. The detection of such responses in other systems may simply reflect the nature of T cell priming to whole allergen which is recalled by culture of memory T cells with peptide. Thus, production of IL-10 may be a recall response rather than the result of intrinsic IL-10-inducing characteristics of the peptide.

[0255] No single peptide induced the preferential production of a particular cytokine. Thus, none of the peptides screened induced a particularly unfavourable Th2 (IL-13) response which would have been considered undesirable for inclusion in the peptide vaccine.

5.4 Tissue Typing

[0256] Tissue typing results show that a representative population was assayed in this study.

6. CONCLUSION

6.1 Histamine Release Assay

[0257] Individual peptides induced histamine release in some individuals. The mixture of preferred peptides SEQ ID NOS: 1 TO 7 induced histamine release in 4 individuals although in 2 of these the release was detected at a single point (highest concentration). MLA16 caused most frequent release but is absent from SEQ ID NOS: 1 TO 7. Some positive release was observed with peptides in the absence of "positive control release" from whole cat dander. The assay was designed to detect histamine release at concentrations of peptide approximating to treatment doses and above. Histamine release at concentrations of peptide corresponding to treatment doses was extremely rare (only one clear example) and only occurred with individual peptides, not with SEQ ID NOS: 1 TO 7.

[0258] The results of the in vitro histamine release assay are likely to over-represent the histamine releasing potential of the vaccine since no steps were taken to minimise disulphide bond formation between peptides.

[0259] Histamine was released by basophils from the majority of individuals in the presence of whole cat dander extract. Histamine release occurred in a dose-dependent fashion in many subjects in contrast to release with peptides which frequently occurred at concentrations in the middle of the dose range. In individuals where histamine was released by peptides, sensitivity to cat dander extract was usually apparent at lower doses of extract.

6.2 Proliferation Assay

[0260] Proliferative responses to peptides were weaker than to peptide mixtures or complex protein antigens as expected. Most individual peptide elicited proliferative responses in less than 20% of individuals. Considerable variation was seen between peptides but no single peptide failed to elicit proliferative responses in at least some subjects, although one of the preferred 7 peptides MLA04 was poor at inducing proliferation. Peptides MLA15 and MLA16 were more potent in induction of proliferation than several of the preferred 7 peptides but gave the highest histamine release.

6.3 Cytokine Assays

[0261] Cytokine production was a more sensitive method than proliferation for detecting responses to peptides in this study. No evidence was obtained to support the idea that certain peptides may have an intrinsic ability to induce a particular pattern of cytokine production. No single peptide preferentially elicited a Th1, Th2 or Treg (IL-10) response. IFN-γ responses tended to be less common than IL-13 and IL-10. The cytokine assay data does not indicate that any of the preferred peptide mixture be substituted nor that any single peptide or the mixture will preferentially induce a Th2 response in vivo.

Example 3

Clinical Trial of Preferred Combination

[0262] A preferred mixture of 7 peptides consisting of the peptides of SEQ ID NOS: 1 to 7 has been tested in a randomised, placebo-controlled, blind clinical trial. The efficacy of this mixture in reducing allergic symptoms was evaluated. The study design of the clinical trial was in accordance with good clinical practice guidelines.

[0263] Baseline skin responses to cat allergen for all subjects were established using a Baseline Challenge which took place between 6 and 8 days prior to study medication administration. Two intradermal injections of 0.010 HEP (histamine equivalent prick) units of commercially available standard cat allergen (supplied by Laboratorios Leti, Spain) were administered, separated by a 30 minute time interval, into the volar surface of the left and right forearms respectively. Subjects were assessed to ensure that they experience a Late-Phase Skin Response (LPSR) to whole cat allergen, and the magnitude of the baseline reaction was recorded as follows:

[0264] Eight hours after each injection the outline of any late-phase response was drawn onto the skin with a ballpoint pen. The longest and orthogonal diameters were measured and recorded for each response, and the area of the response in each arm was calculated. The average area of response in both arms of each subject was then calculated to provide the baseline reaction. Subjects who produced a suitable baseline reaction were assigned to dosing groups, randomised and entered into the Treatment Phase.

[0265] The Treatment Phase consisted of a period of 21 days for each subject. During this period one group of subjects received a single intradermal injection of either the preferred mixture (0.03, 0.3, 3, 12 nmol of each peptide per dose) or diluent placebo at Treatment Phase Visit 1 on day one. A cohort of 8 subjects received treatment at each dose level (6 received the preferred mixture and 2 placebo). The first cohort of the intradermal group received 0.03 nmol of each peptide in the mixture and each subsequent cohort in the group received the next higher dose level.

[0266] Intradermal injections were made into the flexor surface of the left forearm. The total volume of the injection was 60 μL for all injections. After treatment, subjects had their skin response to whole allergen retested at Treatment Phase Visit 2 on day 21 (±3 days). Skin responses to cat allergen were assessed by measurement of the late-phase responses 8 hours following intradermal administration of 0.010 HEP (histamine equivalent prick) units of commercially available standard cat allergen (supplied by Laboratorios Leti, Spain) as described above. The average area of response for both arms of each subject was then calculated as described above.

[0267] This average LPSR area after treatment was then compared to the baseline LPSR area for each subject. The overall change in LPSR area for all eight patients in each cohort was then evaluated. The results of this analysis are shown in the table below. This analysis was performed without unblinding the data.

TABLE-US-00027 REDUCTION IN LPSR AREA DOSE (nmol) FOLLOWING TREATMENT 0.03 + 0.3 ++ 3.0 ++ 12.0 ++

FIG. 8 is a representative plot showing the average LPSR area before and after treatment for all eight patients in the 12.0 nmol cohort. Taken together, these data indicate that the preferred mixture of peptides is effective at reducing the LPSR to whole allergen in cat allergic individuals.
