The affinity between PD-L1 and PD-1, as defined by the dissociation constant K d, is 770 nM. PD-L1 also has an appreciable affinity for the costimulatory molecule CD80 (B7-1), but not CD86 (B7-2). [11] CD80's affinity for PD-L1, 1.4 μM, is intermediate between its affinity for CD28 and CTLA-4 (4.0 μM and 400 nM
At least two PD-L1 inhibitors are in the experimental phase of development. KN035 is the only PD-L1 antibody with subcutaneous formulation currently under clinical evaluations in the US, China, and Japan [35] Cosibelimab (CK-301) by Checkpoint Therapeutics is a PD-L1 inhibitor developed by Dana Farber, and is currently in Phase 3 trials for ...
The expression of PD-L1 (programmed death-ligand 1; one of the immune checkpoints) has been demonstrated to be a good biomarker of PD-L1 blockade therapy in some cancers. [10] However, there is a need for better biomarkers as there are some predictive errors with PD-L1 expression. [10]
Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), (CD279 cluster of differentiation 279). PD-1 is a protein encoded in humans by the PDCD1 gene. [5] [6] PD-1 is a cell surface receptor on T cells and B cells that has a role in regulating the immune system's response to the cells of the human body by down-regulating the immune system and promoting self-tolerance by suppressing T cell inflammatory activity.

In biomedical contexts, a biomarker, or biological marker, is a measurable indicator of some biological state or condition. Biomarkers are often measured and evaluated using blood, urine, or soft tissues [1] to examine normal biological processes, pathogenic processes, or pharmacologic responses to a therapeutic intervention. [2]
Moreover, in 2018, he analyzed how metastatic melanomas utilized exosomal PD-L1, influenced by IFN-γ, to suppress CD8 T cell function, correlating levels with patient response to anti-PD-1 therapy and suggesting exosomal PD-L1 as a potential biomarker. [9]
PD-1 is the transmembrane programmed cell death 1 protein (also called PDCD1 and CD279), which interacts with PD-L1 (PD-1 ligand 1, or CD274). PD-L1 on the cell surface binds to PD-1 on an immune cell surface, which inhibits immune cell activity. Among PD-L1 functions is a key regulatory role on T cell activities. [3] [4] It appears that ...
