Description

Zytorvi 240 mg contains Toripalimab, a humanized monoclonal antibody that targets the programmed death-1 (PD-1) receptor on T-cells. It is administered via intravenous infusion under oncology supervision and is part of modern immunotherapy treatments.

🔬 Mechanism of Action

Toripalimab binds to the PD-1 receptor and blocks its interaction with PD-L1 and PD-L2 ligands. As a result, it:

  • Restores T-cell immune response
  • Enhances immune-mediated tumor cell destruction
  • Helps control tumor growth and progression

This immune checkpoint inhibition allows the body’s immune system to more effectively fight cancer.
