Protein Binding & Selectivity
Mixed Mode Chromatography
● Takes advantage of more than one type of interaction
○ i.e. ionic, hydrophobic, hydrogen bonding
● Provides enhanced selectivity, “pseudo-affinity”
● Can reduce process steps
● Several mixed mode resins have recently been developed with:
○ Increased loading capacities
○ Higher ionic strength tolerance

Protein Binding & Selectivity
Mixed Mode Chromatography potential based on
previous work at KBI
● Demonstrated that mixed mode chromatography has the potential of
achieving superior selectivity by effectively exploiting multiple properties of a
target protein
● Previous work at KBI work focused on characterizing Capto MMC resin and
the use of mobile phase modulators to further enhance selectivity
○ Inclusion of Capto MMC into a mAb process was compared with and
without selective washes
○ Inclusion of a selective wash on Capto MMC resulted in higher product
purity

Effects of Modulators on Different Proteins
● Resin: Capto MMC
● Modulator added to equilibration, wash and elution
buffers
● Products eluted with a linear NaCl gradient
● Impact of modulator on retention was determined by the
NaCl concentration at peak maxima

Ethanol, Methanol, Isopropanol Decrease hydrophobic interactions (used in low concentrations)
Urea, Sodium Thiocyanate Weakens hydrogen bonding, denaturant
Glycerol Weakens hydrophobic interactions
Ethylene Glycol Weakens hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonding
Arginine

8. A Comparison of Multimodal Chromatographic Resins:

Log k’ vs. Log [NaCl]: Theory
log k’ = A – Blog(csalt
) + C(csalt
)
Melander, W.; El Rassi, Z.; Horvath, Cs. Journal of Chromatography, 469, 3-27, 1989.
The retention factor under isocratic conditions is represented by:
k’ = (tr
– tm
)/tm
tm
= time for mobile phase to pass through column
tr
= target protein retention time
Melander et. al described the dependency of the linear retention
factor on a mixed mode sorbent as a function of salt concentration as:
● Electrostatic interactions predominate: a linear relationship is expected between log k’ vs log[NaCl]
● Hydrophobic interactions predominate: a linear relationship is expected until a minimum is reached
at which point further increases in salt result in increased retention

Mixed Mode Chromatography & KBI’s mAB Purification Process Platform
● Mixed Mode resins are ideal for KBI’s mAb platform process since by the nature of our business
there is a significant diversity in mammalian cell clones/cell culture harvest and mAbs
● Mixed mode resins can provide added robustness to a mAb platform to reduce both HMW and HCP
impurities
● Given the complexity of mixed mode resin interactions, optimizing a mixed mode chromatography
step can be time consuming and potentially material limiting

● The low yield process condition zone size varies
significantly with respect to resin, mAbs and
process conditions and are easily identifiable
● In general, Capto MMC has slightly larger low
yield zones for the mAbs and test conditions
within our typical operating pH range .
● In general, each resin has a characteristic

Chromatography Experiments
● Goal: Compare resin ability to reduce HCP and HMW levels at multiple pHs
● Linear gradient studies executed at pH 5, 6 and 7
○ Product eluted from 0-2M NaCl
○ Each 1/8th
CV fractions collected
○ Analyzed fractions by SEC-HPLC for high molecular weight species (HMW)
■ Fractions containing cumulative yield 20%-80% pooled to reduce sample
numbers
■ Fractions containing high %LMW were excluded from the cumulative yield vs.
cumulative purity analysis
● Fractions containing 0 – 80% product yield after SEC-HPLC analysis were pooled for host
cell protein (HCP) analysis

21. A Comparison of Multimodal Chromatographic Resins:
Protein Binding & Selectivity
Chromatography Experiments: Elution [NaCl] & elution peak volume data
21
● In general, Capto MMC and Eshmuno HCX
resulted in higher elution volumes
● Nuvia cPrime elution volume changes significantly
when pH increases from pH 5.0 to 6.0
∞ = target protein did not elute during NaCl gradient
● As expected, elution [NaCl] decreases with
increasing pH
● Capto MMC and Eshmuno HCX require
higher elution [NaCl] at each elution pH
● Tosoh MX-Trp had the lowest elution [NaCl]
at each pH and did not vary as much with
respect to pH
23. A Comparison of Multimodal Chromatographic Resins:
Protein Binding & Selectivity
HCP Reduction
● Not all experiments yielded 80%
product in eluate fractions (*).
○ Capto MMC at pH 5.0 did not
yield any product for the 3 mAbs
tested
○ mAb 3 only achieved 80% yield in
6 of the 12 conditions tested
● HCP clearance is mAb specific with
conditions tested.
○ The greatest HCP reduction
consistently achieved across the
experiments is with mAb 1

Findings regarding the relationship between HT filter plate &
chromatography data
● High throughput filter plate data can be used to quickly
limit the focus of a chromatography evaluation using
minimal amounts of the target protein
○ pH and NaCl conditions not favorable for high yields
are easily identifiable
● There is a correlation between yield variability for each
condition (load pH and elution pH) and monomer
selectivity
○ more variability leads to better selectivity

Best resins for each measure & overall performance based
on the chromatography experiment results
26
● There is not one best resin for all mAbs and conditions evaluated
● For each mAb, the best resin for each performance measure varies
● Nuvia cPrime provides good overall performance for all mAbs tested
● Tosoh MX-Trp consistently had low “optimization factor” scores for all of the mAbs and
conditions tested
*Conclusion will change based on the relative importance of each factor.

Conclusions
● Demonstrated that a high throughput filter plate method can be used as an
efficient approach in screening chromatography resins and identifying their
optimal process conditions
○ Can assess within a short time period if a resin is suitable for purifying a

○ Narrows the focus of chromatography experimental conditions
● Each resin evaluated has its strengths
● Overall performance is based on selecting optimal operating conditions for each
resin and mAb combination
○ Nuvia cPrime provides good overall performance for all mAbs tested
○ Backup options will be needed to meet the unique challenges of each mAb
