Pharmacology
BREYANZI is a CD19-directed genetically modified autologous T cell immunotherapy; CAR binding to CD19 on tumor and normal B cells triggers CD3 zeta-mediated activation and cytotoxic killing of target cells, while 4-1BB (CD137) costimulatory signaling enhances CAR T cell expansion and persistence.
Loncastuximab tesirine-lpyl is a CD19-directed antibody-drug conjugate (ADC); upon binding to CD19, the conjugate is internalized and releases SG3199, a PBD dimer alkylating agent that forms cytotoxic DNA interstrand crosslinks, inducing cell death in B-lineage cells.
