NCIt definition : A conditionally active, pH-sensitive human immunoglobulin (Ig) G1 monoclonal antibody
directed against the negative immune checkpoint regulatory protein V-domain Ig suppressor
of T-cell activation (VISTA; programmed death 1 homolog; PD1H; PD-1H), with potential
negative immune checkpoint regulatory and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration,
solnerstotug selectively targets, binds to and blocks the VISTA checkpoint within
a low, acidic pH tumor microenvironment (TME). This prevents the interaction of VISTA
with its receptor PSGL-1 on T-cells, inhibits VISTA-mediated signaling, decreases
the presence of monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), increases the
presence of natural killer cells (NKs), activates dendritic cells (DCs) and abrogates
VISTA-induced suppression of T-lymphocyte immune responses. This enhances cytotoxic
T-cell infiltration, proliferation, and activation within the TME, increases cytokine
production by T-cells, and inhibits tumor cell growth. VISTA, a negative checkpoint
molecule of immune activation, is highly expressed on myeloid cells, T-cells and in
several tumor types. It plays a key role in the suppression of T-cell function and
tumor immunosuppression.;
