Claims (18)

1. A method of inhibiting or reducing growth of a tumor or cancer in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising:

administering to the subject an effective amount of a pegylated interleukin-10 (PEG-IL-10), wherein the cancer or tumor is lymphoma.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject is human.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the PEG-IL-10 is human PEG-IL-10 (PEG-hIL-10).

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PEG-IL-10 comprises a methoxy-PEG-aldehyde (PALD-PEG) linker.

5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the PEG-IL-10 comprises a methoxy-PEG-aldehyde (PALD-PEG) linker.

6. The method of claim 3 , wherein the PEG-IL-10 comprises a methoxy-PEG-aldehyde (PALD-PEG) linker.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PEG-IL-10 is co-administered with at least one chemotherapeutic agent.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the chemotherapeutic agent is at least one of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, fludarabine, carboplatin, etoposide, mitoxantrone, ifosfamide, cytarabine, cisplatin, and bleomycin.

9. A method of treating a subject suffering from lymphoma, the method comprising:

administering to the subject an effective amount of a pegylated interleukin-10 (PEG-IL-10).

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the subject is human.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the PEG-IL-10 is human PEG-IL-10 (PEG-hIL-10).

12. The method of claim 9 , wherein the PEG-IL-10 comprises a methoxy-PEG-aldehyde (PALD-PEG) linker.

13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the PEG-IL-10 comprises a methoxy-PEG-aldehyde (PALD-PEG) linker.

14. The method of claims 11 , wherein the PEG-IL-10 comprises a methoxy-PEG-aldehyde (PALD-PEG) linker.

15. The method of claim 9 , wherein the PEG-IL-10 is co-administered with at least one chemotherapeutic agent.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the chemotherapeutic agent is at least one of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, fludarabine, carboplatin, etoposide, mitoxantrone, ifosfamide, cytarabine, cisplatin, and bleomycin.
