Fully human anti-B7-H4 antibody induces lysosome-dependent ferroptosis to reverse primary resistance to PD-1 blockade

Our study identifies a novel mechanism by which a fully human anti-B7-H4 antibody induces lysosome-dependent immunogenic tumor cell death. These findings support the therapeutic potential of A8 as a single agent or in combination with PD-1 blockade to overcome immune resistance in B7-H4-expressing "cold" tumors.

Abstract

Our study identifies a novel mechanism by which a fully human anti-B7-H4 antibody induces lysosome-dependent immunogenic tumor cell death. These findings support the therapeutic potential of A8 as a single agent or in combination with PD-1 blockade to overcome immune resistance in B7-H4-expressing "cold" tumors.
