CTLA-4 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily that is expressed by activated T cells and transmits an inhibitory signal to T cells. CTLA-4 is homologous to the T-cell co-stimulatory protein, CD28, and both molecules bind to CD80 and CD86, also called B7-1 and B7-2 respectively, on antigen-presenting cells. CTLA-4 binds CD80 and CD86 with ...
The first checkpoint antibody approved by the FDA was ipilimumab, approved in 2011 for treatment of melanoma. [2] It blocks the immune checkpoint molecule CTLA-4.Clinical trials have also shown some benefits of anti-CTLA-4 therapy on lung cancer or pancreatic cancer, specifically in combination with other drugs.

Abatacept is a soluble CTLA-4 analog that prevents antigen-presenting cells (APCs) from delivering the co-stimulatory signal. This prevents the T cells from being fully activated, and even downregulates them. Simple signaling without co-stimulation allows the cell to recognize the primary signal as "self" and not ramp-up responses for future ...

[4] Proof of concept was established in a randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 2 study. These data demonstrated otelixizumab's ability to preserve beta cell function, as measured by C-peptide , in patients up to 18 months after dosing, as well as reduce the need for delivered insulin to maintain glucose control.
