Pharmacology
Mosunetuzumab-axgb is a bispecific CD20-directed CD3 T-cell engaging antibody that binds CD3 on T-cells and CD20 on lymphoma and B-lineage cells, activating T-cells to induce B-cell lysis and cytokine release.
KYMRIAH is a CD19-directed genetically modified autologous T cell immunotherapy that reprograms a patient's own T cells with a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) to identify and eliminate CD19-expressing malignant and normal cells; the CAR incorporates 4-1BB (CD137) and CD3 zeta intracellular signaling domains that enhance T cell expansion, persistence, and antitumor activity.
