Tebentafusp  (Synonyms: IMCgp100)

Tebentafusp (IMCgp100) is a bispecific fusion protein to target gp100 peptide-HLA-A*02:01 (a melanoma-associated antigen). Tebentafusp guides T cells to kill gp100-expressing tumor cells via a high affinity T-cell receptor (TCR) binding domain and an anti-CD3 T-cell engaging domain. Tebentafusp leads to inflammatory cytokines and cytolytic proteins production, resulting in the direct lysis of tumour cells^[1][2].

Humanized

Tebentafusp is an ImmTAC recognizing a peptide derived from the melanoma-specific protein, gp100, presented by HLA-A*0201^[3].
Tebentafusp (31 pM, 82 pM, and 131 pM; 16 h) stimulates cytotoxic degranulation activity of PBMC against Mel526 cells rather than gp100-negative A375 cells^[3].
Tebentafusp (100 pM; 0-50 h) mediates CD8⁺ T cell killing despite the presence of regulatory T cells via monitoring caspase 3/7 activation during 40-48 hr^[3].
Tebentafusp (100 pM; 0-80 h) triggers cytolysis of melanoma cells by CD4⁺ T cell subpopulations^[3].
Tebentafusp (1, 12, 31, 82, and 131 pM; 24 h or 96 h) increases granzyme B amount, and induces broad cytokine and chemokine release including in both CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ cells^[3].
