Insights into the mechanisms of serplulimab: a distinctive anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody, in combination with a TIGIT or LAG3 inhibitor in preclinical tumor immunotherapy studies.

ABSTRACT: With more than 20 anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies currently marketed, anti-PD-1 therapy has become a cornerstone of tumor immunotherapy. These agents, however, exhibit notable disparities in their characteristics and clinical performance. For instance, in the field of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) where the majority of anti-PD-1 antibodies have yielded limited success, serplulimab produced impressive survival improvements and was approved for this indication by China's National Medical Products Administration. Serplulimab's marketing authorization application also received a positive opinion from the European Medicines Agency. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanism underpinning serplulimab's superiority over its competitors remains elusive. We characterized the differences between serplulimab wi
