Mechanism of action

SHR-8068 binds to programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) on tumor cells and immune cells, blocking the interaction between PD-L1 and its receptors (PD-1 and B7-1). This blockade releases the brakes on T-cell mediated anti-tumor immunity, allowing cytotoxic T lymphocytes to recognize and eliminate cancer cells more effectively.
