    Pharmacology
    Nivolumab is a PD-1 blocking antibody that binds to the PD-1 receptor and blocks its interaction with PD-L1 and PD-L2, releasing PD-1 pathway-mediated inhibition of the immune response, including the anti-tumor immune response.
    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.
