Targeting TIGIT: A novel immune checkpoint

Tiragolumab, an investigational molecule

TIGIT (T-cell immunoreceptor with immunoglobulin and immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif domains) is a novel negative immune checkpoint, expressed on T cells and NK cells.1,2

TIGIT receptor on T cells and NK cells

TIGIT is a coinhibitory receptor that binds to PVR on APCs and tumor cells in various solid and hematologic tumors.1-3 TIGIT dampens the immune response by competing with its costimulatory counterpart, CD226, for binding to PVR.1,2 Once bound to TIGIT, tiragolumab may restore anti-tumor immunity, thereby complementing PD-L1 inhibition, as shown in preclinical models.1 TIGIT was identified at Genentech.2,4

Tiragolumab is an investigational, fully human monoclonal IgG1 antibody designed to prevent PVR-TIGIT interaction.3

Tiragolumab is designed to prevent PVR-TIGIT interaction

Preclinical studies suggest that targeting both TIGIT and PD-L1 may synergistically enhance immune-mediated tumor rejection.1,5,6

Targeting TIGIT on effector T cell

Targeting TIGIT may enhance Teff  function.1

Targeting TIGIT on NK cell

Targeting TIGIT may activate NK cells.5

Targeting TIGIT on regulatory T cell

Targeting TIGIT may counter T reg-mediated immune suppression.6
