monoclonal antibody immunotherapy
drug_description
Investigational monoclonal antibody immunotherapy targeting CCR8 on intratumoral regulatory T cells; designed to mediate Fc-dependent depletion of CCR8+ Tregs and/or block CCR8–CCL1 signaling to reduce immunosuppression.

Anti-CCR8 Monoclonal Antibody BGB-A3055
nci_thesaurus_definition
A monoclonal antibody directed against C-C-chemokine receptor 8 (CCR8), with potential immunomodulating and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, anti-CCR8 monoclonal antibody BGB-A3055 targets and binds to CCR8 on CCR8-positive tumor-infiltrating regulatory T-cells (Tregs) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and prevents chemokine ligand 1 (CCL1)-CCR8-mediated signaling. This may reactivate antitumor immune responses. CCR8 is specifically expressed by tumor-infiltrating Tregs in multiple types of cancer and plays a key role in immunosuppression. High expression is correlated with poor prognosis.

drug_mechanism_of_action
Monoclonal antibody targeting CCR8 on intratumoral regulatory T cells; mediates Fc-dependent depletion (e.g., ADCC/ADCP) of CCR8+ Tregs and blocks CCL1–CCR8 signaling, reducing immunosuppression and enhancing antitumor T-cell responses.
