Preferred Label : Retifanlimab;
NCIt synonyms : Retifanlimab-dlwr;
NCIt definition : A proprietary humanized monoclonal antibody directed against the negative immunoregulatory
human cell surface receptor programmed cell death 1 (PD-1), with potential immune
checkpoint inhibitory and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, retifanlimab
binds to and inhibits PD-1 and its downstream signaling pathways. This may restore
immune function through the activation of T-cells and cell-mediated immune responses
against tumor cells. PD-1, a transmembrane protein in the immunoglobulin superfamily
(IgSF) expressed on T-cells, functions as an immune checkpoint that negatively regulates
T-cell activation and effector function when activated by its ligands programmed cell
death ligand 1 (PD-L1) or 2 (PD-L2); it plays an important role in tumor evasion from
host immunity.;
