| Description | Atezolizumab is an Fc-engineered, humanized, monoclonal antibody that binds to PD-L1 and blocks interactions with the PD-1 and B7.1 receptors. Atezolizumab is a non-glycosylated IgG1 kappa immunoglobulin that has a calculated molecular mass of 145 kDa. Atezolizumab was approved in the US in May, 2016 under the brand name Tecentriq. |
| Indication/Disease | For the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma who: 1) have disease progression during or following platinum-containing chemotherapy; and 2) have disease progression within 12 months of neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment with platinum-containing chemotherapy. |
| Pharmacodynamics | Atezolizumab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to PD-L1 and blocks its interactions with both PD-1 and B7.1 receptors. This releases the PD-L1/PD-1 mediated inhibition of the immune response, including activation of the anti-tumor immune response without inducing antibodydependent cellular cytotoxicity. In syngeneic mouse tumor models, blocking PD-L1 activity resulted in decreased tumor growth. |
| Mechanism of Action | PD-L1 may be expressed on tumor cells and/or tumor-infiltrating immune cells and can contribute to the inhibition of the anti-tumor immune response in the tumor microenvironment. Binding of PD-L1 to the PD-1 and B7.1 receptors found on T cells and antigen presenting cells suppresses cytotoxic T-cell activity, T-cell proliferation and cytokine production. |
| Toxicity | Most common adverse reactions (= 20% of patients) included: fatigue, decreased appetite, nausea, urinary tract infection, pyrexia, and constipation. Overdose data for atezolizumab is scarce[A181241] but the most common adverse reactions are fatigue, nausea, cough, dyspnea, decreased appetite, alopecia, constipation, diarrhea, peripheral neuropathies, anemia, headache, neutropenia, and vomiting.[L7489] |
| Metabolism | Monoclonal antibodies are broken down into smaller polypeptides and amino acids.[A31470] |
| Absorption | Pharmacokinetic analysis was performed in patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma.[A181223] In these patients, the AUC was 2.19-2.73day |
| The volume of distribution of atezolizumab is 6.91L.[A18492,A181223] |
| Clearance | The clearance of atezolizumab is 0.200L/day.[A18492,A181223] |
