Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: TIM3 and PD-1 are checkpoint inhibitors in cancer that coordinate the downregulation of the proliferation of antigen-specific lymphocytes. There is a great need to discover and develop new therapies focused on inhibiting the action of TIM3 and PD-1 and consequently improving the immune response in the various types of cancer. The authors of patent EP3356411A1 propose several anti-TIM3/anti-PD-1 bispecific antibodies, as well as the method for producing them and their pharmacological application in the treatment of cancer.Areas covered: Patent EP3356411A1 describes a method by producing anti-TIM3/anti-PD-1 bispecific antibodies and their potential in cancer treatment.Expert opinion: Data supporting the patent demonstrate the ability by producing anti-TIM3/anti-PD-1 bispecific antibodies. Although the proposed methodology is very interesting and promising, further studies are necessary to assess the clinical applicability of the inventions on cancer.
