Description
Summary:B7-H3 is a transmembrane receptor highly prevalent on malignant cells and plays an important role in adaptive immunity that is not fully elucidated. Targeted B7-H3 inhibitors, including antibody-drug conjugates, radioimmunotherapy, and monoclonal antibodies, are a new class of antineoplastic agents showing promising preliminary clinical efficacy, observed with several of these agents against multiple tumor types. Particularly promising treatments are enoblituzumab for prostate cancer, 131I-omburtamab for central nervous system malignancies, and HS-20093 for small-cell lung cancer but further studies are warranted. There are clinical trials on the horizon that have not yet enrolled patients examining chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapies, bi- and tri-specific killer engagers, and dual-affinity retargeting proteins. These data will be telling of the efficacy of B7-H3 inhibitors in both hematologic and solid malignancies. This study aimed to compile available results of B7-H3 inhibitors in oncology clinical trials.
