    摘要: Provided herein are methods of treating a subject by administering a combination of an activatable cytokine construct (ACC) and a PD-1/PD-L1 pathway inhibitor in which the ACC includes: a first monomer construct including an optional first peptide mask (PM1), an optional third cleavable moiety (CM3), a first mature cytokine protein (CP1), a first cleavable moiety (CM1), and a first dimerization domain (DD1), wherein the CM1 is positioned between the CP1 and the DD1; and a second monomer construct including an optional second peptide mask (PM2), an optional forth cleavable moiety (CM4), a second mature cytokine protein (CP2), a second cleavable moiety (CM2), and a second dimerization domain (DD2), wherein the CM2 is positioned between the CP2 and the DD2; wherein the DD1 and the DD2 bind to each other thereby forming a dimer of the first monomer construct and the second monomer construct; and where the ACC is characterized by a reduction in at least one activity of the CP1 and/or CP2 as compared to a control level of the at least one activity of the CP1 and/or CP2.
