Host Cell Proteins (Host Cell Proteins (HCPsHCPs))
Recombinant Proteins produced in host cells
Proteins from cells can co-purify with therapeutic protein of interest
—e.g. Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell proteins in recombinant monoclonal antibody therapeutics
Purification steps should remove contaminants. Low levels can remain because of:
—Poor process control
—Process changes: can affect HCP
pattern and abundances

Guidelines Governing Guidelines Governing HCPsHCPs
Safety drives the need for removal/minimization
—Link between HCPs and immunogenicity
European regulations in effect since 2007
—‘6.2 Validation of the purification procedure - …. The ability of the purification process to remove other specific contaminants such as host-cell proteins …should also be demonstrated’
—ICH Guidelines: 2009 review in progress (http://www.emea.europa.eu/pdfs/human/bwp/BWPworkprogramme.pdf)

Importance of Importance of HCPsHCPs: : Drug Approval or FailureDrug Approval or Failure
2008: a human growth hormone was approved by FDA, after initial denial
— “The cause of immunogenicity was linked to excess host cell protein contamination, which was resolved by the
manufacturer with additional purification steps”. (http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=2638545)
2006: an interferon biosimilar was rejected by EMEA— “The reasons for the rejection by the EMEA included quality and
clinical differences between [the biosimilar product] and the reference product, … inadequate validation of the process for the finished process and insufficient validation of immunogenicity testing.”

Challenges of HCP AnalysisChallenges of HCP Analysis
Thousands of possible protein contaminants
HCPs can be present at extremely low levels— Typically ppt to ppm (relative to biotherapeutic)
— Guidelines suggest monitoring to ppm (1-100ppm)
Developing methods is expensive and time consuming

HCP Analysis WorkflowHCP Analysis Workflow
Workflow Overview:
—Enzymatic digestion of sample into peptides
—2D-LC/MSE with IDENTITYE to DISCOVER contaminant proteins
—2D-LC allows more sample loading
—Develop specific host cell protein databases
—(Top3 peptides for absolute quantitation, label-free *)
—Data mined for MRMs using VERIFYE
—Transfer to Tandem Quad for targeted quantitation (e.g. using isotopically labeled peptides)

— Much faster development time than immunoassays
— Provide a multi-purpose platform for many other tasks
— Sensitivity comparable to ELISA assays
— Applicable to subunit (recombinant) vaccines

The 2D-LC/MSE setup is able to identify low abundance protein contaminants present in biopharmaceuticals over 5 orders of magnitude
A high-throughput MRM assay on a tandem quadrupole can quantify these protein impurities (absolute quantification can be done using isotopically labeled peptides)
The combination of 2D-LC/MSE and tandem quadrupole MS provides a total system solution for HCP analyses
