Mechanism of action

By binding to PD-1, tislelizumab blocks the interaction between PD-1 and its ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2, which are expressed on the surface of tumor cells. This blockade prevents the inhibition of T-cell activation and proliferation, allowing the immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells more effectively.
