Pharmacology

Repotrectinib is a kinase inhibitor of ROS1 and tropomyosin receptor tyrosine kinases (TRKA, TRKB, TRKC); fusion proteins containing these domains drive tumorigenic potential through hyperactivation of downstream signaling pathways leading to unconstrained cell proliferation.

Ipilimumab blocks CTLA-4, a negative regulator of T-cell activity, thereby augmenting T-cell activation and proliferation including tumor-infiltrating T-effector cells and reducing T-regulatory cell function.
