Purpose of ReviewInterleukin-10 (IL-10) is a cytokine with anti-inflammatory properties, which induces activation and proliferation of antigen-activated intratumoral CD8+ T cells. This review discusses the evolution of pegylated IL-10 (pegilodecakin) from preclinical investigation through first-in-human studies in oncology.Recent FindingsPegilodecakin was evaluated across multiple advanced solid tumors in a large phase 1/1b trial alone and in combination with chemotherapy or anti-PD-1 antibodies. Pegilodecakin monotherapy had immunologic and clinical activity in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and uveal melanoma. In combination with anti-PD-1 inhibitors, pegilodecakin increased the responses in RCC and lung cancer with efficacy agnostic to PD-L1 status and tumor mutational burden. Pegilodecakin with FOLFOX had activity in pretreated pancreatic cancer, instructing the ongoing randomized phase III trial of the combination versus FOLFOX.SummaryThe increased half-life of pegilodecakin enabled compelling preclinical data for IL-10 which has now been confirmed by clinical activity in a variety of cancers. The ability of pegilodecakin to both exert anti-tumor immunity and inhibit tumor-associated inflammation characterizes the uniqueness of this cytokine therapy.
