TGF-beta is a signal that keeps immune cells out of tumours, but blocking it throughout the body caused bleeding and heart toxicity and sank bintrafusp alfa. Tethering the blocker to tumour stroma with a FAP anchor, a collagen-binding domain or a protease-activated mask could give the benefit without the harm.
Systemic TGF-beta blockade, including the PD-L1-TGF-beta trap bintrafusp alfa, failed largely on a narrow therapeutic index with bleeding and cardiac toxicity. Localisation strategies (a FAP-anchored trap, a collagen-binding domain fusion, or a protease-activated masked format) restrict activity to stroma-rich tumour tissue, and masked antibody formats are already in clinical trials.
Two bottleneck pages and 32 idea pages on OnCo cite this paper by its DOI; this record gives the citation a page of its own so a reader can follow it without leaving OnCo. Read the abstract above alongside the citing pages listed under Related; the record was created automatically from the Europe PMC entry and its figures have not been checked by hand.
One of the most cited reviews Europe PMC returns for PD-L1 in Bladder & urothelial cancer, so it is a natural first reading for anyone weighing the idea it is linked from. The record was linked automatically by title and abstract; read the abstract above and the paper itself before relying on any figure.
