[VIRTUAL] KY1043, a novel CD25-directed PD-L1 IL-2 immunocytokine, delivers potent anti-tumor activity in vivo via an expansion of a Tcf1hi PD-1+ CD8+ T cell population (AACR-II 2020)
In conclusion, KY1043 induces highly effective tumor killing in vivo, believed to be driven by the preferential expansion of a recently discovered ‘stem-like’ CD8+ T cell population in the tumor microenvironment. These results challenge the dogma that selective binding to the dimeric ‘βγ’ IL-2R is required for tumor control and demonstrate that a CD25-directed immunocytokine may provide an advantageous therapeutic-index for the treatment of cancer.
