NCIt definition : A fully human immunoglobulin (Ig) G4 monoclonal antibody directed against the negative
immunoregulatory human cell surface receptor programmed death-1 (PD-1, PCD-1) with
immune checkpoint inhibitory and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, nivolumab
binds to and blocks the activation of PD-1, an immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF) transmembrane
protein, by its ligands programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1), which is overexpressed
on certain cancer cells, and programmed cell death ligand 2 (PD-L2), which is primarily
expressed on antigen-presenting cells (APCs). This results in the activation of T-cells
and cell-mediated immune responses against tumor cells. Activated PD-1 negatively
regulates T-cell activation and plays a key role in tumor evasion from host immunity.;
