It is a fully human monoclonal antibody directed against the immunosuppressive ligand, programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1; cluster of differentiation 274; CD274), with potential antineoplastic and immune checkpoint inhibitory activity.
Following administration, sugemalimab targets and specifically binds to PD-L1, blocking its binding to and activation of its receptor, programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1).
This reverses the inactivation of T cells caused by PD-1/PD-L1 signalling and enhances the cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL)-mediated antitumour immune response against tumour cells expressing PD-L1.
PD-L1 is overexpressed by many types of human cancer cells.
The binding of PD-L1 to PD-1 on T cells suppresses the immune system and results in immune evasion.
PD-1, a transmembrane protein belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily expressed on activated T cells, is a negative regulator of the immune system that limits the expansion and survival of CD8-positive T cells.
The anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody CS1001 mirrors natural immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4), potentially reducing immunogenicity and other toxicities.
