General functionIpilimumab is a CTLA-4 immune checkpoint inhibitor that blocks T-cell inhibitory signals induced by the CTLA-4 pathway, increasing the number of reactive T-effector cells which mobilize to mount a direct T-cell immune attack against tumour cells.
Short description
Pharmacodynamic properties
(Mechanism of action; Source EMA document)
Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) is a key regulator of T-cell activity. Ipilimumab is a CTLA-4 immune checkpoint inhibitor that blocks T-cell inhibitory signals induced by the CTLA-4 pathway, increasing the number of reactive T-effector cells which mobilize to mount a direct T-cell immune attack against tumour cells. CTLA-4 blockade can also reduce T-regulatory cell function, which may contribute to an anti-tumour immune response.
Pharmacodynamic properties (Pharmacodynamic effects; Source EMA document)Ipilimumab is an Antineoplastic agent, and may selectively deplete T-regulatory cells at the tumour site, leading to an increase in the intratumoral T-effector/ T-regulatory cell ratio which drives tumour cell death.
