Abstract

The development of checkpoint antibodies for cancer therapy has been guided by the principle of blocking T cell inhibitory signals. Recognition of the role of the Fc domain in therapeutic activities, through the depletion of immunosuppressive populations and myeloid cell activation, prompts a shift toward the development of optimized Fc-engineered checkpoint antibodies.
