PVRIG is a brake on killer T cells and NK cells that reads CD112 on tumour cells, a cousin of the TIGIT pair. The antibody COM701 blocks it and is being tested in ovarian cancer.
PVRIG (chromosome 7q22.1) is a cell-surface receptor for NECTIN2 (CD112) that may act as a co-inhibitory receptor suppressing T-cell receptor signals, inhibits T-cell proliferation after NECTIN2 binding and competes with CD226 for it; it is expressed at low levels on freshly isolated T and NK cells, predominantly memory and effector CD8 T cells and both CD16-positive and CD16-negative NK cells, and not on B cells, naive or helper T cells, monocytes or neutrophils (UniProt Q6DKI7). COM701 completed a phase 1/2 study with the TIGIT antibody BMS-986207 and nivolumab (NCT04570839) and is recruiting in relapsed platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer (NCT06888921).
In plain words · PVRIG is a brake on killer T cells and NK cells that reads CD112 on tumour cells, a cousin of the TIGIT pair. The antibody COM701 blocks it and is being tested in ovarian cancer.

An immunoglobulin-domain receptor with an ITIM-like tail; part of the CD226/TIGIT/CD96/PVRIG axis over CD155 and CD112.
No product in this corpus aims at PVRIG (CD112R) yet. Checkpoint drugs are antibodies that cover one side of an immune ‘stand down’ handshake so T cells stay active.
