Discovery of an theranostic functional mAb for visualizing the sensitivity and effectiveness of PD-L1 checkpoint therapy.

To address the challenges of inconsistent efficacy, low sensitivity, and subjective screening methods faced by PD-L1-targeted immune checkpoint therapies in the clinic. We propose to construct a therapeutic functional monoclonal antibody with tracking capability using tetrazolium-based bioorthogonal reaction turn-on fluorescence technology, focusing on the molecular biomarker PD-L1 for easy visualisation of therapeutic response. This therapeutic monoclonal antibody enables bioorthogonal reaction turn-on fluorescence to monitoring of tumors with varying degrees of PD-L1 expression, while preserving the activity of the PDL1 monoclonal antibody and improve the immune activation rate and achieve efficient anti-tumor effects.
