GC Cell and Checkpoint Therapeutics have announced a collaboration to explore the combined therapeutic potential of cosibelimab, Checkpoint?s anti-PD-L1 antibody with dual mechanism of action, with GC Cell?s Immuncell-LC, an innovative autologous Cytokine Induced Killer (?CIK?) T cell therapy composed of cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer T cells. This collaboration will initially focus on conducting in vitro combination studies to evaluate the synergistic effects of these two therapies on cancer cell destruction. Positive preliminary data from these studies could potentially pave the way for future in vivo research and clinical studies.

The anticipated synergy between cosibelimab?s antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (?ADCC?) mechanism of action and Immuncell-LC?s robust autologous CIK T cell response is supported by extensive research. This combination is expected to leverage immune system components more effectively in targeting and eliminating cancer cells.
