Ivonescimab Mechanism of Action
Designed to optimize the balance of anti-tumor activity and safety4,5
IVONESCIMAB COOPERATIVE BINDING
Simultaneous interaction of PD-1 & VEGF blockades have the potential to drive synergistic anti-tumor activity1,4,5
Higher Binding Affinity
Presence of VEGF increases PD-1 binding strength by >18X6
Presence of PD-1 increases VEGF binding strength by >4X6
Increased Binding T Cells
VEGF dimer leads to potential interconnection or daisy chaining of multiple ivonescimab molecules, which may lead to increased binding of T cells6,7
Based on in-vitro studies
