Mechanism of action

Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) acts as a pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) that triggers toll-like receptors (TLRs), particularly TLR3, on dendritic cells and other immune cells. This activation promotes the production of type I interferons and pro-inflammatory cytokines, enhancing antitumor immunity and potentially synergizing with checkpoint inhibitors or other immunotherapies.
