To develop quality control methods for recombinant anti-interleukin-23 monoclonal antibodies (anti-IL23 mAb).
Peptide map analysis by RP-HPLC was used for identification of an anti-IL-23 mAb. The purity was measured by reduced/non-reduced capillary electrophoresis-sodium dodecyl sulfonate (CE-SDS) and size exclusion-high performance liquid chromatography (SEC-HPLC). Charge heterogeneity was measured by imaging capillary isoelectric focusing electrophoresis (icIEF). LC isoAsp95 was measured by RP-HPLC. The biological activity was determined on U2OS IL23R/IL12RB1 dimerization cell. Other quality control items complied with corresponding requirements of “Chinese Pharmacopeia” 2015 edition and related guidelines.
Peptide mapping showed the specific spectrum of the anti-IL23 mAb, which could be adopted for the identification test. The area percentage of heavy chain, NGHC and light chain was (97.84±0.12)% as detected by reduced CE-SDS; the area percentage of main peak detected by non-reduced CE-SDS was (97.23±0.11)%. The area percentage of monomer peak and total aggregate peak detected by SEC-HPLC were (99.26±0.005)% and (0.71±0.005)%, respectively. The area percentage of main peak, acid peak and alkaline peak detected by icIEF were (73.83±0.29)%, (24.03±0.34)% and (2.10±0.09)%, respectively. The percentage of LC isoAsp95 was (3.37±0.52)%. The relative biological activity was (102.25±8.47)%.
A series of quality control methods for anti-IL23 mAbs has been established, which can be adaptable in ensuring the safety, effectiveness and quality controllability for similar biologics. The study is of great significance as a representative quality control reference for anti-IL23 mAbs.
