MOLECULES THAT SELECTIVELY ACTIVATE REGULATORY T CELLS FOR THE TREATMENT OF AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES

摘要

This invention provides for a fusion protein between an IL2αβγ Selective Agonist protein (IL2 Selective Agonist) and a IgG Fc protein. The IL2 Selective Agonist moiety provides a therapeutic activity by selectively activating the IL2αβγ form of the receptor, thus selectively stimulating Tregs. The Fc moiety provides a prolonged circulating half-life compared to the circulating half-life of IL-2 or an IL2SA protein.
