Interleukin-15/Interleukin-15 Receptor Alpha Complex-Fc Fusion Protein XmAb24306
**Semantic type:** Pharmacologic Substance
**Definition:** An interleukin (IL)-15/IL-15-receptor alpha (IL-15Ra) complex fused to a bispecific Fc domain, with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon administration, XmAb24306 stimulates the proliferation of natural killer (NK) cells and memory CD8+ T-cells. The memory T-cells enhance the secretion of the cytokine interferon-gamma (IFN-g), which further potentiates the immune response against tumor cells. This may increase tumor cell killing and decrease tumor cell proliferation. IL-15 regulates CD8+ T and NK cell development, activation and proliferation. XmAb24306 does not require endogenous IL-15Ra for its activation.
