ANXA1-derived peptide for targeting PD-L1 degradation inhibits tumor immune evasion in multiple cancers

Abstract

Our results reveal that A11 competes with USP7 to bind and degrade PD-L1 in cancer cells, A11 exhibits obvious antitumor effects and synergistic antitumor activity with PD-1 mAb via inhibiting tumor immune evasion and A11 can serve as an alternative strategy for ICIs therapy in multiple cancers.
