CD155 is the molecule on tumour cells that TIGIT and CD96 read; normal tissue barely shows it, many tumours show a lot. Every TIGIT antibody works by breaking the CD155 handshake.
PVR (chromosome 19q13.31) encodes CD155, which mediates NK-cell adhesion and triggers NK effector functions through two NK-cell receptors, CD96 and CD226, at the immunological synapse (UniProt P15151). It is barely or weakly expressed in various normal human tissues but frequently over-expressed in malignant tumours, promotes invasion and migration, is associated with shorter survival, and as the ligand of the co-stimulatory receptor CD226 and the co-inhibitory receptors TIGIT and CD96 it plays a dual role in onco-immunity (Kučan Brlić et al. 2017, Cell Mol Immunol).

A nectin-like adhesion molecule and the poliovirus receptor; the shared ligand of the DNAM-1/TIGIT/CD96 axis.
No product in this corpus aims at CD155 (PVR) yet. Checkpoint drugs are antibodies that cover one side of an immune ‘stand down’ handshake so T cells stay active.
First described 1989. Earliest sequence paper UniProt cites for the protein: Mendelsohn C.L. et al, Cell, 1989, "Cellular receptor for poliovirus: molecular cloning, nucleotide sequence, and expression of a new member of the immunoglobulin superfamily". Source.
