Basic and clinical evaluation of anti-CCR4 mAb in cancer immunotherapy
Abstract:
CCR4 is one of the receptors for chemokines and is expressed on Th2, Th17, skin-homing T cells and regulatory T cells (Tregs). Activated Tregs highly express CCR4 and are induced into tumor environment by M2 macrophages-producing CCL22. Tregs show strong suppres- sive functions in cancer immunity, resulting in tumor progression. On the other hand, moga- mulizumab is a humanized anti-human CCR4 monoclonal antibody with a defucosylated Fe region which markedly enhances ADCC activity, and the antibody has been shown to effi- ciently deplete CCR4-positive cells. Therefore, a phase Ia clinical study of mogamulizumab was conducted in the treatment of solid cancers. Mogamulizumab almost depeleted activated Tregs in peripheral blood, and then re-activated CTL function with low grade of adverse events. However, no clinical responses were observed in ten patients. A phase lb study is now on-going, and further clinical studies may be needed in combination with other anti- tumor drugs.

To measure the basicity of amines, two conventions are generally used. The first defines Kb as the basicity constant for the deprotonation reaction of water by the amine, as presented in Figure 1. Conventionally, lower Kb indicates higher...
Basic Operations on Signals
Time Reversal mirrors a continuous-time signal about the vertical axis at t=0. This is achieved by substituting t with −t. For example, if a signal x(t) is considered, the time-reversed signal is x(−t). This operation can be graphically represented, showing the mirrored signal.
