Active ingredients

The drug BAVENCIO contains one active pharmaceutical ingredient (API):

1 Avelumab UNII KXG2PJ551I - AVELUMAB

Avelumab is a human immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) monoclonal antibody directed against programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1). Avelumab binds PD-L1 and blocks the interaction between PD-L1 and the programmed death 1 (PD-1) and B7.1 receptors. This removes the suppressive effects of PD-L1 on cytotoxic CD8+ T-cells, resulting in the restoration of anti-tumour T-cell responses. Read about Avelumab
