The present and future of immunocytokines for cancer treatment
AbstractMonoclonal antibody (mAb) therapy has successfully been introduced as treatment of several lymphomas and leukemias. However, solid tumors reduce the efficacy of mAb therapy because of an immune-suppressive tumor micro-environment (TME), which hampers activation of effector immune cells.

Background Unlike some adult cancers, most pediatric cancers are considered immunologically cold and generally less responsive to immunotherapy. While immunotherapy has already been incorporated into standard of care treatment for pediatric patients with

NHS-IL12 is an immunocytokine, a fusion protein of IL12's functional domains and a necrosis-targeting antibody, which has shown significant effects against human rhabdomyosarcoma xenografts in a humanized tumor model, including terminal growth arrest and

PD-1-Cis IL-2R Agonism Determines the Predicted Pharmacological Dose Range for the Immunocytokine Eciskafusp Alfa (PD1-IL2v). [PDF]
ABSTRACT Binding in cis‐configuration to the PD‐1 receptor (PD‐1) and IL‐2βγ receptor (IL‐2Rβγ) has been shown to lead to differentiation of CD8 T cells to better effectors, which is anticipated to drive efficacy of the immune‐targeted cytokine eciskafusp alfa, or PD1‐IL2v.

Current and Potential Uses of Immunocytokines as Cancer Immunotherapy
Immunocytokines (ICs) are a class of molecules created by linking tumor-reactive monoclonal antibodies to cytokines that are able to activate immune cells.

Immunocytokines turn up the heat in glioblastoma
2558 Background: There is an urgent need for novel treatment options for patients with glioblastoma, the most frequent malignant primary brain tumor. In contrast to other types of cancer, immunotherapeutic approaches have so far not been successful against glioblastoma. Converting the glioma microenvironment from a "cold" and immunosuppressive status

A Phase 1b Study of Humanized Ks-Interleukin-2 (Huks-Il2) Immunocytokine with Cyclophosphamide in Patients with Epcam-Positive Advanced Solid Tumors [PDF]
BackgroundHumanized KS-interleukin-2 (huKS-IL2), an immunocytokine with specificity for epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM), has demonstrated favorable tolerability and immunologic activity as a single agent.MethodsPhase 1b study in patients with ...

The immunocytokine NHS-IL12 is targeted to necrotic tumour areas to prompt an immune response. Authors show here in mouse colon and breast models that the combination of histone deacetylase inhibitor, Entinostat, and NHS-IL12 generates a tumour ...
