Description

Natalia Porozova and six co-authors offer a 2025 review of new ways to block the PD-1 and PD-L1 pathway in cancer care. Antibodies that block this pathway have set survival records in many tumor types. Yet they enter tumors unevenly, linger long in the body, and can spark immune side effects.

The review covers paired antibody plans, two-target antibodies, and smaller antibody forms with tuned body life. It also weighs local delivery and gene-encoded forms that raise drug levels inside tumors. Past antibodies, it looks at small drugs, decoy receptors, and aptamers. The authors argue for fit-for-context design: match the format to each tumor. They hold that classic antibodies stay central, with new forms filling their gaps.
