Tebentafusp is a bispecific fusion protein, comprised of a T cell receptor (TCR; targeting domain) fused to an antibody fragment targeting CD3 (cluster of differentiation 3; effector domain). The TCR end binds with high affinity to a gp100 peptide presented by human leukocyte antigen – A*02:01 (HLA-A*02:01) on the cell surface of uveal melanoma tumour cells, and the effector domain binds to the CD3 receptor on the polyclonal T cell.
