Background of 9D9-mIgG2a

9D9 antibody is specific for mouse CTLA-4. The antibody has been used to block CTLA-4 and has been shown to enhance T-cell immunity against tumours. 9D9 also has an anti-B16/BL6 melanoma effect in non-irradiated tumour-bearing recipients when given as combinatorial therapy with Gvax. This mechanism both involves blockade of CTLA4 as well as depletion of tumor-infiltrating regulatory T-cells. Fc Silent antibodies were shown to have reduced anti-tumor activity as they did not deplete tumor infiltrating regulatory T-cells, however they lead to expansion of peripheral Tregs.
