  2. PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibitors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PD-1_and_PD-L1_inhibitors

    PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibitors act to inhibit the association of the programmed death-ligand 1 with its receptor, programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1). The interaction of these cell surface proteins is involved in the suppression of the immune system and occurs following infection to limit the killing of bystander host cells and prevent autoimmune ...

  4. Checkpoint inhibitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checkpoint_inhibitor

    Currently approved checkpoint inhibitors target the molecules CTLA4, PD-1, and PD-L1. 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.

  5. Immune checkpoint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immune_checkpoint

    PD-1: short for Programmed Death 1 (PD-1) receptor, has two ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2. This checkpoint is the target of Merck & Co.'s melanoma drug Keytruda, which gained FDA approval in September 2014. The checkpoint is also the target of EMD Serono (Merck KGaA)'s drug Bavencio, which gained FDA approval in 2017. An advantage of targeting PD-1 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Programmed_cell_death_protein_1

    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.

  7. Cosibelimab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosibelimab

    144 674.18 g·mol −1 Cosibelimab , sold under the brand name Unloxcyt , is a monoclonal antibody used for the treatment of cutaneous squamous-cell carcinoma . [ 1 ] It is a programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) blocking antibody.

  8. Dostarlimab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dostarlimab

    Dostarlimab binds to the PD-1 receptor, with high affinity, to block its activity with PD-1 ligands (PD-L1 and PD-L2). [15] [30] PD-1 is a co-inhibitory receptor that is an important checkpoint protein for regulating T-cell tolerance. [5] [29] When PD-1 is constantly stimulated by PD-1 ligands, which are highly expressed in cancer cells, it ...
