4-1BB is a switch on activated T cells that makes them live longer and kill better. Rather than press it everywhere, new bispecific antibodies press it only on T cells that are already touching a tumour cell marked by PD-L1 or HER2. This dossier gathers the 2 products (0 approved), 3 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Both corpus agents cluster 4-1BB only where the other arm has bound a tumour antigen (PD-L1 or HER2), so costimulation is confined to T cells in contact with the tumour rather than delivered systemically.
