NCIt definition : A monoclonal antibody directed against common lymphatic endothelial and vascular endothelial
receptor-1 (CLEVER-1; stabilin-1; FEEL-1), with potential immunomodulatory and antineoplastic
activities. Upon administration, bexmarilimab targets and binds to CLEVER-1 that is
expressed on tumor endothelial cells. This prevents the recruitment, infiltration
and attachment of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) at the tumor site. By preventing
the binding of TAMs to tumor cells, the infiltration of activated T-regulatory cells
(Tregs) to the tumor and the TAM-mediated immune suppression is abrogated, leading
to the polarization of TAM from the immunosuppressive M2 macrophages to the anti-inflammatory
and immunostimulatory M1 macrophages. This leads to the activation of the immune system,
resulting in a cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL)-mediated immune response and inhibition
of tumor cell growth and metastasis. CLEVER-1 is an endothelial cell surface molecule
involved in immune suppression, cancer growth and metastasis.;
