Abstract
Recent advancements in cancer immunotherapy have spotlighted the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway, crucial for its role in immune checkpoint regulation. Traditional inhibitors, though successful, face challenges like resistance and adverse effects. Bispecific antibodies targeting PD-1 and PD-L1 present a ground-breaking solution by simultaneously engaging multiple immune regulatory molecules. Developments in PD-1/PD-L1 bispecific antibodies up to now have been summarized, and the latest findings from the 2024 ASCO conference are presented, revealing that bispecific antibodies exhibit robust efficacy in treating various types of cancers, marking a significant step forward in cancer treatment.
