PD-1 and CTLA-4 dual inhibitor peptides patent

PD-1 and CTLA-4 dual inhibitor peptides

This disclosure provides peptides which have a strong affinity for the checkpoint receptor “programmed death 1” (PD-1). These peptides block the interaction of PD-1 with its ligand PD-L1 as well as the interaction of CTLA4 with CD86 and can therefore be used for various therapeutic purposes, such as inhibiting the progression of a hyperproliferative disorder, including cancer; treating infectious diseases; enhancing a response to vaccination; treating sepsis; and promoting hair re-pigmentation or lightening of pigmented skin lesions.
