A Novel Monoclonal Antibody against PD-1 for the Treatment of Viral Oncogene-Induced Tumors or Other Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) interact to form an immune checkpoint fostering viral infection and viral oncogene-induced tumorigenesis. We generated a novel anti-human PD-1, humanized monoclonal antibody P1801 and investigated its pharmacologic, pharmacokinetic (PK), and pharmacodynamic properties. In vitro binding assays revealed that P1801 uniquely binds to human PD-1 and inhibits its interaction with PD-L1/2. It showed a minor effect on the induction of antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC). P1801 significantly induced the release of IL-2 from activated T-cells but not from nonactivated T-cells. A dose-dependent linear PK profile was observed for the cynomolgus monkeys treated with repeated
