  • Publication number: 20240108690
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for the treatment of neoplastic disease in a mammalian subject the method comprising the administration of an IL-10 agent in combination with the administration of at least one modulator of at least one immune checkpoint pathway. The present disclosure further provides a method for the treatment of neoplastic disease wherein the neoplasm has a low or intermediate tumor mutation burden, low or intermediate level of expression of the immune checkpoint molecule, or metastatic neoplastic disease.

  • Publication number: 20230381278
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to hIL2 orthogonal ligands (“IL2 orthologs”) that specifically and selectively bind to the extracellular domain (ECD) a transmembrane polypeptide comprising of a modified hCD122 polypeptide. The binding of the hIL2 ortholog to the modified hCD122 polypeptide participates in the transduction pathway of intracellular signaling resulting in a biological activity of the native intracellular signaling patterns associated with hIL2 binding to either the intermediate or high affinity hIL2 receptor but which exhibits selectivity to an engineered cell expressing an hCD122 orthogonal receptor. The hIL2 orthologs of the present invention exhibit significantly reduced binding relative to their binding to the extracellular domain of wild type hCD122, either alone or when hCD122 is present in the form of an endogenous high or intermediate affinity hIL2 receptors.

  • Patent number: 11814679
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and compositions relating to isolated CD8+ T cells expressing a disease antigen-specific T cell receptor, as well as nucleic acids encoding the V? and V? polypeptide pairs of T cell receptors (TCRs) of such disease antigen-specific T cells. Such disease antigen-specific CD8+ T cells are obtainable from the periphery (e.g., blood) of a subject having a disease amenable to treatment with an IL-10 agent. The present disclosure also contemplates therapeutic methods and compositions relating to administration of isolated disease antigen-specific CD8+ T cells to a subject, as well as therapeutic methods and compositions relating to CD8+ T cells genetically modified to express a disease antigen-specific TCR and/or chimeric antigen receptor.
