Expert view: Assays to measure the potency of therapeutic antibodies used in combination with other drugs for Immuno‑Oncology treatments

6 September 2018 | By

Growing evidence reveals that using single immunotherapies to treat oncological disorders may lead to cancer-killing T-cell overdrive,initiating life-threatening autoimmune reactions including cytokinestorm; also known as hypercytokinemia or Cytokine Release Syndrome(CRS). Recently, checkpoint blockade using anti-programmed cell death1 (anti-PD-1) inhibitors became a prevalent approach for stimulatinganti-tumour immune system.

Cancer immunotherapy utilises components of the immune system to treat cancer patients. These therapies are designed to work with a patient’s immune system to increase native anti-tumour responses. One type of immunotherapy relies on antibodies to bind to and inhibit the function of proteins expressed by the cancer cell...
