Title:
COMBINED USE OF UBENIMEX AND IMMUNE CHECKPOINT INHIBITORS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/250070
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a more effective treatment method for cancer treatment that utilizes the tumor immune system. A further purpose of the present invention is to provide, as a more effective tumor immunotherapy, a drug that enhances antitumor, pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokine production. A further purpose of the present invention is to provide, as a more effective tumor immunotherapy, a drug that increases tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. This anti-tumor agent has ubenimex as the active component, and is dosed in combination with anti-PD-1 antibodies, an anti-PD-L1 antibodies and/or an anti-CTLA-4 antibodies, which are immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). This ubenimex and ICI combination therapy brings about improvement of the tumor immune system when compared with the use of either of these alone, and brings about many benefits in the treatment of malignant tumors.
