drug_description
An investigational CD3 T‑cell engager bispecific antibody (protein immunotherapy) that binds CD3 on T cells and a B‑cell tumor antigen to redirect and activate cytotoxic T cells against malignant B cells in relapsed/refractory B‑cell NHL; administered at fixed subcutaneous dosing in combination with JNJ‑80948543.

nci_thesaurus_definition
A human bispecific antibody, with potential antineoplastic activity. Rezetamig contains two binding sites, one for the tumor-associated antigen (TAA) CD22, and one for the T-cell surface antigen CD3. Upon administration, rezetamig binds to both CD3 on T-cells and CD22-expressing B-lineage tumor cells. The resulting cross-linkage may trigger a potent cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response against the CD22-expressing tumor B-cells. CD22 is exclusively expressed on B-cells and is often overexpressed in B-lymphocytic malignancies. It negatively regulates the B-cell receptor.

drug_mechanism_of_action
A bispecific antibody that binds CD3 on T cells and CD22 on malignant B cells, crosslinking T cells to target cells to form an immune synapse, activate and redirect cytotoxic T-lymphocyte activity, and induce lysis of CD22-expressing B-cell lymphoma cells.
