Preferred Label : Verzistobart;
NCIt synonyms : Anti-TIM-3 Monoclonal Antibody INCAGN02390;
NCIt definition : A fully human Fc-engineered immunoglobulin G1 kappa (IgG1kappa) antibody directed
against the inhibitory T-cell receptor T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-containing
protein 3 (TIM-3; TIM3; hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 2; HAVCR2), with potential
immune checkpoint inhibitory and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, verzistobart
forms a high-affinity interaction with TIM-3 expressed on certain T-cells, thereby
preventing the engagement of TIM-3 by its ligands, phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) and
galectin-9. This abrogates T-cell inhibition, activates antigen-specific T-lymphocytes
and enhances cytotoxic T-cell-mediated tumor cell lysis, which results in a reduction
in tumor cell proliferation. Additionally, INCAGN02390 elicits TIM-3 receptor internalization,
potentially preventing interactions with other ligands.TIM-3, a transmembrane protein
and immune checkpoint receptor expressed on certain lymphocytes, including tumor infiltrating
lymphocytes (TILs), is associated with tumor-mediated immune suppression.;
