AI Technical Summary
Systemic administration of cytokines for cancer treatment often results in severe side effects due to widespread immune activation, limiting their wider use.
Development of immunomodulator compositions that localize cytokines, such as variant interleukins and human leukocyte antigen receptors, to cancer sites using calcium compound particles, allowing for targeted delivery and reducing systemic side effects.
This approach enables specific immune activation at cancer sites, minimizing systemic side effects and enhancing treatment efficacy for cancers like melanoma, renal cell carcinoma, and others, while maintaining targeted immune response.

[0006] BACKGROUND
[0007] Cytokines are effective in activating the immune system and may be used as immunomodulators to stimulate the immune system for the treatment of cancer. However, systemic administration of cytokines elicits severe side effects that limit wider use.
[0008] SUMMARY
[0009] In various aspects, provided herein are immunomodulator compositions and systems for the treatment of cancer. In various embodiments, the immunomodulator is localized to the cancer of the subject to reduce or eliminate systemic side effects associated with systemic delivery of the immunomodulator without localization. Example compositions and systems include variant interleukins, variant human leukocyte antigen (HLA) receptors (also referred to as major histocompatibility complex receptors), tumor antigen peptides, and combinations thereof. Various embodiments comprise a particle, wherein the variant interleukin and / or variable HLA are tethered to the particle. The variant HLA may be combined with the tumor antigen peptide. The compositions and systems may be delivered systemically.
[0010] Provided herein are methods of activating an immune response and / or treating cancer in a subject in need thereof, the methods comprising delivering to the subject an immunomodulatory polypeptide comprising an interleukin, and a particle comprising a calcium compound.

In some embodiments, the binding peptide comprises a sequence at least 80% identical to any one of SEQ ID NOS: 12-14 and 1-11. In some embodiments, the immunomodulatory polypeptide comprises a protease cleavage site positioned between the interleukin and the binding peptide, wherein the protease cleavage site is cleaved by a protease of a T cell and / or a cancer cell. In some embodiments, the protease cleavage site comprises one or more of (i) a furin cleavage site, (ii) a caspase cleavage site, (iii) a matrix metalloproteinase cleavage site, (iv) a cathepsin cleavage site, and (v) one or more of SEQ ID NOS: 47-50, 106-108, 124-125, 127-128, and 112-113.
