Abstract

Meeting abstracts IL-15 activates and induces the proliferation of CD8+ T cells and NK cells. ALT-803 (Altor Bioscience, Miramar, FL) is a superagonist of IL-15 consisting of 2 molecules of IL-15 N-to-D substituted at position 72, bound to 2 molecules of the sushi domain of IL-15 alpha receptor

Highlights

  • IL-15 activates and induces the proliferation of CD8+ T cells and NK cells

  • ALT-803 (Altor Bioscience, Miramar, FL) is a superagonist of IL-15 consisting of 2 molecules of IL-15 N-to-D substituted at position 72, bound to 2 molecules of the “sushi” domain of IL-15 alpha receptor and a single Fc fragment of IgG1

  • ALT-803 has been shown to exert superior antitumor activity and possess a longer half-life compared with unmodified IL-15 in animal models of myeloma, melanoma and bladder cancer
