Tabelecleucel |
Tabelecleucel is an allogeneic, EBV-specific T-cell immunotherapy which targets and eliminates EBV-infected cells in an HLA-restricted manner. Tabelecleucel has an equivalent mechanism of action to that demonstrated by endogenous circulating T cells in the donors from which the medicinal product is derived. The T-cell receptor of each clonal population within tabelecleucel recognises an EBV peptide in complex with a specific HLA molecule on the surface of target cells (the restricting HLA allele) and allows the medicinal product to exert cytotoxic activity against the EBV-infected cells. |
