Phase I/II dose escalation and dose expansion study of TransCon IL-2 β/γ alone or in combination with pembrolizumab: Determination of recommended phase II dose (RP2D) for monotherapy (ESMO 2023)
The RP2D for monotherapy was determined at 120 mcg/kg IV every 3 weeks while dose escalation continues for combination therapy. PK data indicated a half-life of at least 35 hours and PD data confirm durable activation and expansion of cytotoxic immune cells from TransCon IL-2 β/γ.

IL believe: A phase 1/2, open-label, dose escalation and dose expansion study of TransCon IL-2 β/γ alone or in combination with pembrolizumab or standard-of-care chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. (ASCO 2022)
Recombinant human interleukin-2 (IL-2, aldesleukin) can induce a response rate of ̃15% in metastatic renal cell carcinoma and metastatic melanoma, yet toxicities (vascular leak syndrome, cytokine storm) have limited its use...Parts 1 and 2 Dose Escalation (Phase 1) use a standard 3+3 design with increasing doses of intravenous (IV) TransCon IL-2 b/g alone (Part 1) or with 200 mg IV pembrolizumab in solid tumors where pembrolizumab monotherapy may have clinical activity (Part 2)...Other key objectives include the evaluation of pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamic biomarkers, and antitumor activity according to RECIST 1.1. Recruitment started in January 2022 and is ongoing (NCT05081609).
