CD24 is a second 'don't eat me' badge after CD47: tumours show it to Siglec-10 on macrophages, which then leave them alone. Blocking antibodies are in first-in-human trials.
CD24 (chromosome 6q21) is a small GPI-anchored glycoprotein expressed on B cells and the T-cell surface and in erythroleukaemia and small-cell lung carcinoma cell lines; it modulates B-cell activation (UniProt P25063). Normally expressed by immune, epithelial, neural and muscle cells, its interaction with Siglec-10 has been implicated in tumour immune evasion, inhibiting macrophage-mediated phagocytosis as well as NK-cell cytotoxicity; monoclonal antibodies against CD24 have shown clinical safety in two trials, with limited efficacy data (Panagiotou et al. 2022). IMM47, an anti-CD24 antibody, entered a phase 1 study in advanced solid tumours (NCT05985083, status unknown).

A heavily glycosylated GPI-anchored surface protein; the ligand of Siglec-10.
No product in this corpus aims at CD24 yet. Checkpoint drugs are antibodies that cover one side of an immune ‘stand down’ handshake so T cells stay active.
First described 1991. Earliest sequence paper UniProt cites for the protein: Kay et al, J. Immunol, 1991, "CD24, a signal transducer modulating B cell activation responses, is a very short peptide with a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol membrane anchor". Source.
