"Cytokines evolved to be highly active and short acting immune signaling molecules, which makes them difficult to repurpose for therapeutic use. We have applied our protein engineering expertise and Fc technologies to create a broad set of XmAb cytokine drug candidates, designed to be long acting and drug-like," said John Desjarlais, Ph.D., senior vice president and chief scientific officer at Xencor. "We look forward to sharing our first preclinical data from two additional wholly owned cytokine programs, a decoy-resistant and potency-reduced IL18-Fc fusion protein, and a LAG-3 targeted IL15/IL15α-Fc fusion protein, which is biased toward binding and activating checkpoint-upregulated lymphocytes that are more likely to be tumor-reactive."
