Bispecific antibody GEN-1057 induces apoptosis through DR4 and FAPα dual engagement

May 2, 2025
No Comments
The use of mimicking antibodies that activate death receptors (DRs) to selectively induce cell death in cancer cells has shown limited clinical success so far, primarily due to suboptimal efficacy and safety concerns, particularly hepatotoxicity. Emerging strategies to enhance efficacy include the development of bispecific antibodies that simultaneously target DRs and tumor-specific antigens.
