Emerging principles of cytokine pharmacology and therapeutics

Robert A. Saxton et al.

Summary: The use of cytokines for therapeutic purposes has been restricted due to their pleiotropic activity. However, recent insights from structural biology, protein engineering, and receptor pharmacology have provided strategies to overcome cytokine pleiotropy and develop improved cytokine-based therapeutics.

The use of supercytokines, immunocytokines, engager cytokines, and other synthetic cytokines in immunotherapy

Xiaohu Zheng et al.

Summary: Cytokines play a critical role in immune regulation, but their clinical application is often limited by toxicity and lack of efficacy. Protein engineering and synthetic immunology provide new approaches to modify cytokine signaling and design engineered cytokines that selectively target specific cells.

Immunogenicity and humanization of single-domain antibodies

Martin A. Rossotti et al.

Summary: Single-domain antibodies have desirable properties as biologic drugs, but their sequences may increase immunogenicity risks. While most clinical trials show minimal immunogenicity, special caution is needed for highly potent sdAbs. Further research is needed to establish humanization thresholds to maximize human sequence content without compromising binding affinity or stability.

Harnessing cytokines and chemokines for cancer therapy

David J. Propper et al.

Summary: Cytokines play a crucial role in cancer development and progression. While cytokines have been studied for their therapeutic potential in oncology, clinical trials have shown limited efficacy. However, the advent of immunotherapies and a better understanding of the tumor microenvironment have opened up new possibilities for harnessing cytokine networks in cancer treatment.

Engineering interferons and interleukins for cancer immunotherapy

Patrick G. Holder et al.

Summary: Cytokines are potent immunoregulatory proteins that play important roles in cancer and have the potential for cancer immunotherapy. However, the use of cytokines as therapeutics has been limited by their complex biology and toxicities. Recent advances in immune checkpoint inhibitors and combination immunotherapies have reinvigorated interest in cytokines as therapeutics.

Facile discovery of surrogate cytokine agonists

Michelle Yen et al.

Summary: This study presents a strategy to discover cytokine surrogate agonists by using modular ligands that exploit induced proximity and receptor dimer geometry as pharmacological metrics. The researchers generated combinatorial matrices of single-chain bispecific ligands and discovered that this approach can lead to the engineering of surrogate ligands that compel assembly of non-natural receptor heterodimers. The findings demonstrate the generalizability of this approach for the discovery of diversified agonists for various ligand-receptor systems.

Biophysical Characterization and Stability of Modified IgG1 Antibodies with Different Hexamerization Propensities

Muriel D. van Kampen et al.

Summary: This study biophysically characterized the impact of self-association in IgG antibody variants, finding a correlation between increased self-association propensity and functional activity. The mutation E430G decreased conformational stability, but had no substantial effect on storage stability. These findings provide insights for the design and development of IgG-based therapeutics.

Antitumor immunity induced by antibody-based natural killer cell engager therapeutics armed with not-alpha IL-2 variant

Olivier Demaria et al.

Summary: This study presents the design of tetraspecific molecules that can activate natural killer cells for cancer therapy. The tetraspecific molecules selectively activate and proliferate natural killer cells, and the binding to tumor-associated antigens triggers cell cytotoxicity and cytokine production. In animal experiments, the tetraspecific molecules control tumor growth and accumulate at the tumor site. Furthermore, they can deplete circulating B cells without causing toxicity in non-human primates.
