Comment: Lirilumab (BMS-986015) is a fully human monoclonal antibody (mAb) which targets the KIRD2 subgroup of killer cell immunoglobulin like receptors (KIRs) on natural killer cells [1], being developed as an immuno-oncology clinical candidate. Identified targets include KIR2DL1, KIR2DL2, KIR2DL3, KIR2DS1 and KIR2DS2. Genes of KIR proteins are listed in HGNC family Killer cell immunoglobulin like receptors (KIR). ia an IgG4 isotype antibody considered suitable for a blocking , non-depleting mAb with clinical utility.
