Although monoclonal antibodies have greatly improved cancer therapy, they can trigger side effects due to on-target, off-tumor toxicity. Over the past decade, strategies have emerged to successfully mask the antigen-binding site of antibodies, such that they are only activated at the relevant site, for example, after proteolytic cleavage. However, the methods for designing an ideal affinity-based mask and what parameters are important are not yet well understood. Here, we undertook mechanistic studies using three masks with different properties and identified four critical factors: binding site and affinity, as well as association and dissociation rate constants, which also played an important role. HDX-MS was used to identify the location of binding sites on the antibody, which were subsequently validated by obtaining a high-resolution crystal structure for one of the mask-antibody complexes. These findings will inform future designs of optimal affinity-based masks for antibodies and other therapeutic proteins.
