Background Art

[0007] In addition to utilizing a variety of different proliferation and expansion mechanisms, tumors often induce local and systemic immunosuppression. Although most cells expressing immunogenic antigens are rapidly eliminated before neoplasia or tumorigenicity, tumor-mediated immunosuppression often blocks immune activity against cancer cells and can allow tumors to spread uncontrollably. Because many cytotoxic cancer therapies rely on immune activity to eliminate cancer cells, immunosuppressive tumors can resist conventional cancer therapies, which also fail to achieve immune reactivation and therefore do not affect immune clearance. Therefore, cancer therapies often require immune activation functions that can overcome tumor immunosuppression.

[0008] Despite this need, most immunomodulatory therapies have limited efficacy. While the immunosuppressive tumor environment is often localized, many immunostimulatory therapies produce toxic systemic reactions that may limit doses to levels below those required for local therapeutic efficacy. In particular, antibody-based therapies often affect antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), while non-targeted immunostimulatory complexes can produce dangerously toxic inflammatory and cytokine responses. Furthermore, many immunostimulatory compounds target intracellular receptors present on both cancer cells and immune cells, so treatments must balance the requirements of tumor cell targeting with immune cell uptake.

[0009] Among such immunostimulatory compounds, toll-like receptors (TLRs) play an important role in activating the immune system to defend against invading pathogens and damaged cells with potential tumorigenicity (see Kaczanowska et al., J. Leukoc. Biol. 2013; 93(6): 847-863). TLRs are a family of membrane-bound proteins that, when activated, recruit adaptors to propagate antigen-induced signals, thereby changing cell phenotype and activity. As immunostimulatory compounds, TLR agonists have been developed as vaccine adjuvants to enhance the production of immune cells that target viral or bacterial antigens required in vaccines. TLRs also recognize endogenous markers of tumor formation, such as cell death and chronic inflammation, and activate innate immune responses to these cells. (See, e.g., Ellerman et al., Clin. Cancer Res. 2007; 13: 2836-2848; Hernandez et al., Oncogene 2016; 35: 5931-5941; and Urban-Wojciuk et al., Front. Immunol., Vol. 10, pp. 2388-2398 (2019). However, due to their immunostimulatory properties, the systemic use of TLR agonists may be limited by dose-limiting toxicities due to systemic cytokine induction. See Adams, S., Immunotherapy 2009; 1(6): 949-964. Therefore, there remains a need for targeted immunostimulatory compounds to localize the immune response to the desired cells while minimizing off-target effects. Summary of the Invention

[0010] The present disclosure provides compounds and biomolecule complexes (e.g., antibody-drug conjugates) that trigger cell and tissue-specific immune responses. Since cancer immunosuppression is typically located in the microenvironment near cancer cells, targeting payloads to these cancer sites may be crucial for affecting immune reactivation. To achieve this, in certain embodiments, the present disclosure provides antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) that are constructed to selectively activate immune responses within the tumor microenvironment. In addition to delivering payloads to targeted cancer sites, ADCs of the present disclosure can also be constructed to release their payloads (e.g., TLR agonists) after being taken up by cancer or cancer-associated cells, thereby targeting immune activation to cancer sites and preventing off-target immune activation.

[0011] The ADCs described herein and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be constructed to be taken up by target cells or tissues. In some embodiments, the ADCs are constructed to be endocytosed after binding to membrane-bound and / or surface-displayed antigens. In such cases, the ADCs can target intracellular receptors, such as TLR7 or TLR8, which are often primarily localized within endosomes. Lipophilic groups attached to the ADCs (e.g., PEGylation or neutral and non-polar peptide linkers) can facilitate endocytosis.

[0012] In addition to targeting, the release of the ADC drug unit can be controlled so that the release occurs at a specified site (e.g., within the cell targeted by the antibody). Since the linker (L) cleavable group can be configured to be cleaved under specific physiological conditions or by a specific enzyme, the release of the drug unit can be primarily limited to the target site. Therefore, the biological effect of the drug unit (e.g., an immunostimulatory effect) can be localized to the target site. Alternatively, the drug unit can be configured to remain attached to the antibody, or a portion of the antibody and / or the linker, and induce its biological effect when coupled to the antibody.

[0238] Many cancers are immunosuppressive, actively suppressing immune cell proliferation, signaling, and activity to avoid detection and elimination. While some TLR agonists can reactivate cancer-suppressed immune cells, TLR agonist therapy is often limited by dose-limiting toxicities. Even at mild agonist doses, persistent TLR activation can influence immune-related adverse events, including rheumatologic and thyroid disorders, nausea, rash, and general malaise.

[0239] By circumventing the toxicity-based dose limitations typically associated with TLR agonists, certain ADCs disclosed herein elicit minimal cytokine responses from outside the target tumor site. A surprising discovery disclosed herein is that widespread TLR7 / 8 activation within the tumor microenvironment can primarily activate immune cells without generating undesirable responses from cancer and bystander cells. Leveraging this discovery, the tumor-targeted ADCs disclosed herein can utilize significant concentrations of highly potent TLR agonists to achieve local immune stimulation while avoiding dose-limiting systemic toxicity.

[0241] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. Methods and materials used in this application are described herein; in some aspects of the present disclosure, other suitable methods and materials known in the art are also used. The materials, methods, and examples are illustrative only and are not intended to be limiting. All publications, patent applications, patents, sequences, database entries, and other references mentioned herein are incorporated by reference in their entirety. In the event of a conflict, this specification (including definitions) shall prevail. Unless the context indicates otherwise, when a trademark name is used herein, the trademark name includes the active pharmaceutical ingredient of the product preparation, generic drug, and trademarked product.

[0242] As used herein, the terms "a," "an," or "the" include not only aspects having one member, but also aspects having more than one member. For example, the singular forms "a," "an," and "the" include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to "a linker" includes reference to one or more such linkers, and reference to "the cell" includes reference to a plurality of such cells.

[0243] When referring to a number or a numerical range, the term "about" means that the number or numerical range mentioned is an approximation, for example, within experimental variability and / or statistical experimental error, and therefore the number or numerical range may vary up to ±10% of the specified number or numerical range. With respect to ADC compositions comprising an ADC distribution as described herein, the average number of TLR agonist compounds coupled to the antibody in the composition may be an integer or non-integer, particularly when the antibody is partially loaded. Therefore, the term "about" cited before the average drug loading value is intended to capture the expected variation in drug loading within the ADC composition.

[0244] As used herein, the term "antibody" encompasses complete monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, monospecific antibodies, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), including complete antibodies and antigen-binding antibody fragments and reduced forms thereof, wherein one or more interchain disulfide bonds are destroyed, which exhibit the desired biological activity, and provided that the antigen-binding antibody fragment has the desired number of linking groups (e.g., linkers (L)) and the desired number of attachment sites, as described herein. In some aspects, the linker is connected to the cysteine ​​residues of the reduced interchain disulfide bonds and / or the sulfur atoms of the cysteine ​​residues introduced by genetic engineering via succinimide or hydrolyzed succinimide. The native form of the antibody is a tetramer and consists of two pairs of identical immunoglobulin chains, each pair having a light chain and a heavy chain. In each pair, the light chain and heavy chain variable domains (VL and VH) are primarily responsible for binding to the antigen together. The light chain and heavy chain variable domains consist of a framework region interrupted by three hypervariable regions, also referred to as "complementarity determining region" or "CDR." The light and heavy chains also contain constant regions that can be recognized by and interact with the immune system. (See, for example, Janeway et al., 2001, Immuno. Biology, 5th edition, Garland Publishing, New York). Antibodies include any isotype thereof (e.g., IgG, IgE, IgM, IgD, and IgA) or its subclasses (e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and IgA2). Antibodies can be derived from any suitable species. In some aspects, the antibodies are of human or murine origin, and in some aspects, the antibodies are human, humanized, or chimeric antibodies. Antibodies can be fucosylated or afucosylated to varying degrees.

The constant domain is a native sequence constant domain (e.g., a human native sequence constant domain) or an amino acid sequence variant thereof.

[0246] "Antibody fragments" comprise a portion of an intact antibody, including its antigen-binding or variable region. Antibody fragments disclosed herein include at least one cysteine ​​residue (natural or engineered) that provides a site for attachment of a linker and / or linker-drug compound. In some embodiments, antibody fragments include Fab, Fab', or F(ab')2.

[0247] As used herein, the term "engineered cysteine ​​residues" or "eCys residues" refers to a cysteine ​​amino acid or derivative thereof that is incorporated into a protein (e.g., an antibody) and that would not otherwise be present at its position within the protein. In those aspects, one or more eCys residues can be incorporated into an antibody, and typically, an eCys residue is incorporated into the heavy or light chain of an antibody. Typically, incorporation of an eCys residue into an antibody is performed by mutagenizing the nucleic acid sequence of a parent antibody to encode one or more amino acid residues with cysteine ​​or its derivatives. Suitable mutations include replacing the desired residue in the light or heavy chain of an antibody with cysteine ​​or its derivatives, incorporating additional cysteine ​​or its derivatives at the desired position in the light or heavy chain of an antibody, and adding additional cysteine ​​or its derivatives to the N-terminus and / or C-terminus of the desired amino acid heavy or light chain. Further information can be found in U.S. Patent No. 9,000,130, the contents of which are incorporated herein in their entirety. Derivatives of cysteine ​​(Cys) include, but are not limited to, β-2-Cys, β-3-Cys, homocysteine, and N-methylcysteine.

Alignment for the purpose of determining percentage amino acid sequence identity can be achieved in various ways within the skill in the art, for example, using publicly available computer software such as BLAST, BLAST-2, ALIGN or Megalign (DNASTAR) software. One skilled in the art can determine appropriate parameters for aligning sequences, including any algorithm required to achieve maximum alignment over the full length of the compared sequences. For example, the % sequence identity of a given amino acid sequence A to, with, or against a given amino acid sequence B (which can be expressed as a given amino acid sequence A having or comprising a certain % sequence identity to, with, or against a given amino acid sequence B) is calculated as follows: 100 × fraction X / Y, where X is the number of amino acid residues for which the sequences were scored as perfect matches in the program's alignment of A and B, and where Y is the total number of amino acid residues in B. It will be understood that when the length of amino acid sequence A is not equal to the length of amino acid sequence B, the % sequence identity between A and B will not be equal to the % sequence identity between B and A.

In some cases, a hydrolyzable group is constructed to undergo hydrolytic cleavage in a specific physiological environment, such as blood (e.g., peripheral blood) or oxidation (e.g., lysosomes) or reduction (e.g., cytoplasm) intracellular compartments. In some cases, a hydrolyzable group is constructed for, for example, cleavage by enzymes present in a specific organism (e.g., humans) or tissue (e.g., metabolically active tissues such as liver, kidney, or brain). A hydrolyzable group may be constructed for cleavage by a series of enzymes or specific enzymes. For example, a hydrolyzable group may comprise an oligopeptide of the sequence arginine-arginine-valine-arginine, to which human furin may have high cleavage activity. A hydrolyzable group may be constructed for cleavage within a specific environment, such as the endosomes or lysosomes of human cells. In such cases, the hydrolyzable group may be stable outside of the environment in which it is constructed for cleavage. For example, the hydrolyzable group may be stable in peripheral blood circulation, but hydrolyzes and cleaves when taken into cells. Examples of hydrolyzable groups include organophosphates such as phosphates, phosphorothioates and phosphorodithioates, carbamates, carbonates, thioesters, quaternary amines, ureas, disulfides, organic sulfates, diorganosulfates, certain amides and esters, and peptides with protease cleavage sites.

[0300] It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the compounds described herein having chiral centers can exist in and be isolated in optically active and racemic forms.

[0301] As used herein, the term "free drug" refers to a biologically active substance that is not covalently attached to an antibody. Therefore, a free drug refers to a compound that exists immediately after cleavage of the ADC. The release mechanism may be via a cleavable linker in the ADC, or via intracellular conversion or metabolism of the ADC. In some aspects, the free drug will be protonated and / or may exist as a charged moiety. A free drug is a pharmacologically active substance that can exert a desired biological effect. In some embodiments, the pharmacologically active substance is a separate parent drug. In some embodiments, the pharmacologically active substance is a parent drug that is bonded to a component or residue of the ADC (e.g., a linker, succinimide, hydrolyzed succinimide, and / or a component of an antibody that has not undergone subsequent intracellular metabolism). In some embodiments, a free drug refers to a compound of any one of formula (A), (I)-(VIII), (IIa), or (IIIa) as described herein, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example, wherein one or more of X, Y, W, A, and M are absent. In some embodiments, a free drug refers to a compound of formula (IX). In some embodiments, the free drug refers to a compound of formula (X). In some embodiments, the free drug refers to a compound disclosed in U.S. Publication No. 2017 / 0217960, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.

[0302] As used herein, the term "drug unit" refers to the free drug conjugated to the antibody in the ADC, as described herein.

[0303] Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs)

[0304] Aspects of the present disclosure provide an antibody drug conjugate (ADC) with a TLR7 / 8 payload. Since many cells express TLR7 and TLR8 (including epithelial cells and myeloid cells), it is important to localize the effects of TLR7 / 8 agonists to specific disease sites for therapeutic efficacy. To this end, many ADCs disclosed herein are constructed to release their payloads within the target disease site. In many cases, ADCs can affect immune cell activation in the tumor suppressor microenvironment, thereby avoiding systemic cytokine and antibody-dependent toxicity typically induced by free antibodies and TLR7 / 8 agonists.

[0458] In some embodiments disclosed herein, R 5is acidic, negatively charged, and / or highly polar (e.g., comprises a dipole moment of at least about 2.0 Debye). The surprising observation disclosed herein (e.g., as demonstrated in Example 37) is that C7 imidazoquinoline functionalization (R 5 ) can enhance toll-like receptor activation. It is expected that the importance of this functionalization in certain imidazoquinolines may have been previously overlooked because it tends to reduce cellular uptake, which may mask its effectiveness when applied as a free drug. However, when used in tandem with effective targeting and uptake systems (such as the antibodies disclosed herein), imidazoquinolines with negative or highly polar C7 functionalization can achieve enhanced TLR7 / 8 responses. Without being limited by theory, it is hypothesized that TLR7 / 8 binding can position the imidazoquinoline C7 near charged or polar proton residues, allowing strong hydrogen bonding interactions to be achieved, thereby enhancing binding strength and agonist performance.

[0479] In some embodiments, ADC is capable of releasing (i) a component of a linker bound to D; (ii) a component of an antibody bound to LD; and / or (iii) a parent compound D (as defined herein) as a free drug. In some embodiments, the free drug is released at the intended site of action of the antibody targeting. In some embodiments, the free drug is released within the intended site of action of the antibody targeting. In some embodiments, the free drug is capable of binding to toll-like receptors (TLRs). In some embodiments, the binding of the free drug to TLRs exhibits an agonist effect on the TLRs. In some embodiments, the binding of the free drug to the TLRs exerts an immunostimulatory effect.

[0480] Antibody

[0481] For many ADCs disclosed herein, antibodies target antigens associated with clinically relevant disease states. Such antibodies can localize ADCs to the site of disease, thereby achieving targeted TLR7 / 8 agonist payload delivery and site-specific treatment. Since untargeted TLR7 / 8 agonists can affect systemic immune-related toxicity, TLR7 / 8-mediated immune reactivation is generally only feasible when the agonist payload is delivered in a site-specific manner. Therefore, the targeted ADC antibodies disclosed herein can enable the use of efficient TLR7 / 8 agonists, which would otherwise exhibit extremely high toxicity via systemic delivery. In some cases, antibodies further mediate cellular uptake to achieve intracellular or subcellular TLR7 / 8 agonist delivery.

[0482] As used herein, the term "monoclonal antibody" may refer to an antibody obtained from a population of substantially homogeneous antibodies, i.e., the individual antibodies comprising the population contain identical sequences except for possible naturally occurring mutations. Typically, monoclonal antibodies are highly specific, being directed against a single antigenic site. The modifier "monoclonal" indicates the character of the antibody as being obtained from a population of substantially homogeneous antibodies and should not be construed as requiring production of the antibody by any particular method.

[0483] Useful polyclonal antibodies are heterogeneous antibody molecule populations derived from the serum of immune animals. Useful monoclonal antibodies are homogeneous antibody populations directed against specific antigenic determinants (e.g., cancer or immune cell antigens, proteins, peptides, carbohydrates, chemicals, nucleic acids, or fragments thereof). Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) directed against an antigen of interest can be prepared using any technology known in the art that provides for the production of antibody molecules by continuous cell lines in culture.

[0484] Useful monoclonal antibodies include, but are not limited to, human monoclonal antibodies, humanized monoclonal antibodies, or chimeric human-mouse (or other species) monoclonal antibodies. Antibodies include full-length antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof. Human monoclonal antibodies can be made by any of a variety of techniques known in the art (e.g., Teng et al., 1983, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 80:7308-7312; Kozbor et al., 1983, Immunology Today 4:72-79; and Olsson et al., 1982, Meth. Enzymol. 92:3-16).

[0485] In some embodiments, antibodies include functionally active fragments, derivatives or analogs of antibodies that specifically bind to target cells (e.g., cancer cell antigens) or other antibodies that bind to cancer cells or matrix. In this regard, "functional activity" means that fragments, derivatives or analogs are able to specifically bind to target cells. In order to determine which CDR sequences bind to antigens, synthetic peptides containing CDR sequences are typically used in binding assays with antigens by any binding assay method known in the art (e.g., Biacore assays) (e.g., see Kabat et al., 1991, Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, Fifth Edition, National Institute of Health, Bethesda, Md; Kabat E et al., 1980, J. Immunology 125 (3): 961-969).

[0486] In addition, recombinant antibodies, such as chimeric and humanized monoclonal antibodies comprising human and non-human parts, are useful antibodies, typically obtained using standard recombinant DNA techniques. Chimeric antibodies are molecules in which different parts are derived from different animal species, such as those having a variable region derived from a murine monoclonal antibody and a constant region derived from a human immunoglobulin. See, for example, U.S. Patent No. 4,816,567; and U.S. Patent No. 4,816,397, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. Humanized antibodies are antibody molecules from non-human species having one or more CDRs from a non-human species and a framework region from a human immunoglobulin molecule. See, for example, U.S. Patent No. 5,585,089, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Such chimeric and humanized monoclonal antibodies can be produced by recombinant DNA techniques known in the art, for example, using the methods described in International Publication No. WO 87 / 02671; European Patent Publication No. 0 184 187; European Patent Publication No. 0 171496; European Patent Publication No. 0 173 494; International Publication No. WO 86 / 01533; U.S. Patent No. 4,816,567; European Patent Publication No. 012 023; Berter et al., 1988, Science 240:1041-1043; Liu et al., 1987, Proc.

[0487] In some embodiments, the antibodies are fully human antibodies.In some embodiments, antibodies are produced using transgenic mice that are unable to express endogenous immunoglobulin heavy and light chain genes but are able to express human heavy and light chain genes.

[0488] In some embodiments, the antibody is an intact or fully reduced antibody.The term "fully reduced" is intended to refer to an antibody in which all four interchain disulfide linkages have been reduced to provide eight thiols that can be attached to the linker (L).

[0489] The connection to the antibody can be via a thioether linkage from a natural and / or engineered cysteine ​​residue, or from an amino acid residue engineered to participate in a cycloaddition reaction (e.g., a click reaction) with a corresponding linker intermediate. See, for example, Maerle et al., PLOS One 2019: 14(1); e0209860. In some embodiments, the antibody is an intact or fully reduced antibody, or an antibody with an engineered cysteine ​​group modified with a functional group that can participate in, for example, click chemistry or other cycloaddition reactions (e.g., Diels-Alder reaction or other [3+2] or [4+2] cycloaddition) for connecting other components of an ADC as described herein. See, e.g., Agard et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., Vol. 126, pp. 15046-15047 (2004); Laughlin et al., Science, Vol. 320, pp. 664-667 (2008); Beatty et al., ChemBioChem, Vol. 11, pp. 2092-2095 (2010); and Van Geel et al., Bioconjug. Chem., Vol. 26, pp. 2233-2242 (2015).

[0490] Antibodies that specifically bind to cancer or immune cell antigens can be purchased or produced by any method known to those skilled in the art, such as chemical synthesis or recombinant expression technology. Nucleotide sequences encoding antibodies that specifically bind to cancer or immune cell antigens can be obtained, for example, from the GenBank database or similar databases, literature publications, or by conventional cloning and sequencing.

[0491] In some embodiments, antibodies can be used to treat cancer (e.g., antibodies approved by the FDA and / or EMA). Antibodies that specifically bind to cancer or immune cell antigens can be purchased or produced by any method known to those skilled in the art, such as recombinant expression technology. Nucleotide sequences encoding antibodies that specifically bind to cancer or immune cell antigens can be obtained, for example, from the GenBank database or similar databases, literature publications, or by conventional cloning and sequencing.

[0492] In some cases, the antibody has a mutation or post-translational modification that affects non-Fab-mediated uptake. Peripheral immune cells that are highly responsive to TLR7 / 8 agonists, when activated via non-antigen-specific, Fc-mediated uptake of TLR7 / 8 antibody-drug conjugates, can promote a strong systemic response that may be harmful or otherwise undesirable. In such cases, the antibody may have an effector function-reducing mutation, such as L234A / L235A, D265A / N297A, D270A, K322A, P329A, P329G, or a combination thereof, that reduces non-immune uptake (e.g., FcγR-mediated uptake).

[0493] In some embodiments, the antibody can be constructed to bind to the surface antigen of the cell. The antibody or the complex comprising the antibody can be constructed to internalize in the cell after binding to the surface antigen. For example, the antibody or the ADC comprising the antibody can be constructed to carry out endocytosis after binding to the surface antigen of the cell. In some embodiments, the antibody (or the ADC comprising the antibody) is constructed to internalize in the cancer cell. In some embodiments, the antibody (or the ADC comprising the antibody) is constructed to internalize in the immune cell. In some embodiments, the immune cell is a tumor-associated macrophage. In some embodiments, the surface antigen is a receptor or a receptor complex (for example, expressed on lymphocytes). In some embodiments, the receptor or receptor complex comprises a member of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily, a member of the TNF receptor superfamily, an integrin, a cytokine receptor, a chemokine receptor, a major histocompatibility protein, a lectin, or a surface receptor expressed by a complement control protein or other immune cells.

[0494] In some embodiments, the antibodies are constructed to specifically bind to cancer cell antigens. In some embodiments, the antibodies are constructed to specifically bind to immune cell antigens. In some embodiments, the immune cell antigen is a tumor-associated macrophage antigen. In some embodiments, the antibodies are constructed to specifically bind to EphA2. It should be understood that the antibody component of the ADC is the residue form of the antibody, such that the "Ab" in the ADC structures described herein is incorporated into the structure of the antibody.

[0499] In some cases, the antibodies of the present disclosure target immune checkpoints. Among the various mechanisms that can lead to unstoppable cell growth, certain cancers use immune checkpoint proteins to create an immunosuppressive environment, thereby limiting immune activity near the cancer site. Since these cancers typically produce a large number of immune checkpoints, immune checkpoint targeting can be an effective means of locating ADC and TLR7 / 8 agonist payloads to cancer sites. In some cases, the antibodies of the present disclosure target immune checkpoints selected from the group consisting of: PDL1, PD1, CTLA-4, B7H4, B7H3, TIGIT, TIM-3, VISTA, GITR / GITRL, CD80 / CD86, CD155, PDL1, PDL2, galectin 9, CD40, OX40L, 4-1BB / 4-1BBL, ICOS / ICOSL, CD70, and combinations thereof. In some cases, the antibodies of the present disclosure target immune checkpoints selected from the group consisting of: PDL1, B7H4, B7H3, TIGIT, or combinations thereof.

[0583] (iv) Exemplary Antibodies

[0584] In some cases, the antibodies provided herein bind to PDL1. PDL1 is expressed in a variety of cancers and certain immune cells and often serves as a primary mechanism of immunosuppression in the tumor microenvironment. PDL1 agonism of PD-1 can act as an immune checkpoint, reducing lymphocyte tumor infiltration and T cell receptor-mediated proliferation and signaling. While PDL1 antagonism can reverse immunosuppression, PDL1 targeting can also localize treatment to the cancer site, enabling drugs to selectively target cancer cells or stimulate immune responses in the presence of tumors.
