Abstract 3547: IL-12-based cytokine factories modulate tumor microenvironment to eradicate pancreatic tumors in mice and are well tolerated in non-human primates
Abstract:Pancreatic cancer is often diagnosed at advanced stages and responds poorly to chemotherapy. Because high tumor T cell infiltration corresponds with better clinical outcomes in pancreatic cancer patients, immunotherapy has gained significant interest over the last decade for the treatment of recurrent pancreatic cancer. IL-12 is a proinflammatory cytokine with pleiotropic effects including activation of CD8+ T cells and NK cells. Unfortunately, systemic high dose IL-12 administration led to severe toxicities i… Show more
