Bispecific Immune Checkpoint targeted Reporter Gene Assay Service
Targeting Bi-Specific Immune Checkpoint Brings Great Potential to Cancer Immunotherapy.
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) with antibodies has yielded sustained clinical benefits across various cancer types. Amongst, monoclonal antibodies have demonstrated significant success in this field; however, their action is limited to a single target, thereby restricting their therapeutic potential. Emergingly, bispecific antibodies represent a groundbreaking class of drugs capable of engaging two distinct immune checkpoint proteins, whether on the same or different antigens. This dual-targeting capability not only enhances their binding affinity and tumor eradication effectiveness but also aids in lowering both development and clinical trial expenses.

Bi-specificity Immune Checkpoint-targeted Reporter Gene Assay at Creative Biolabs
Cell-based reporter gene assays have revolutionized the way researchers evaluate the function of therapies targeting bi-specific immune checkpoints. Compared to traditional primary cell-based assays, reporter gene assays are notably more efficient, consistent, and reproducible. Creative Biolabs has pioneered an advanced reporter gene assay specifically designed to target bispecific immune checkpoints to serve for targeted therapeutics screening or evaluation.
Our bispecific immune checkpoint targeted reporter gene assays are designed to evaluate the effects of candidate compound treatment on engineered cell lines expressing bispecific immune checkpoints integrated with a reporter system to screen or evaluate candidate compounds. The reporter gene response's intensity indicates the candidate's effector function, offering clear and quantifiable efficacy readouts. Meanwhile, our versatile sample loading capacity allows for simultaneous multi-sample measurement. Furthermore, we offer custom cell line development for customers wishing to conduct research in your own lab. At Creative Biolabs, our expert team provides custom solutions designed to meet unique customer requirements, guaranteeing exceptional quality and swift delivery.

Representative Data
| Summary: | To investigate the efficacy of anti-PD-L1/CD40L BsAbFP, a dual-binding fusion protein targeting human CD40 and PD-L1, this study developed a specialized reporter gene bioassay. The assay utilized engineered CHO cells to serve as surrogate antigen-presenting cells (APCs) expressing both a T cell receptor activator and PD-L1, Jurkat cells modified to express PD-1 along with an NFAT-luciferase reporter acting as effector T cells, and Raji cells with an NFκB-luciferase reporter that naturally express CD40, serving as accessory B cells. This innovative assay simultaneously engages the PD-1/PD-L1 and CD40/CD40L signaling pathways to evaluate the functionality of anti-PD-L1/CD40L BsAbFP. |
