Compound class: Antibody
Comment: Ligufalimab (AK117) is a humanized IgG4 anti-CD47 antibody [1-2]. In the tumour microenvironment blocking CD47 interaction with its receptor SIRPα enhances M2 macrophage-mediated phagocytosis of CD47-expressing malignant cells from variety of tumour types. Unlike other anti-CD47 antibodies (such as magrolimab) ligufalimab does not induce hemagglutination, so should be devoid of hematotoxic side effects (anemia and thrombocytopenia) due to the expression of CD47 on erythrocytes.
