| Antibody Comments | ||
| Innate Pharma are developing the anti-KIR3DL2 monoclonal antibody IPH4102 for cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) [1,5,9]. IPH4102 has been granted orphan drug status in the European Union and in the United States for the treatment of CTCL, and in January 2019 received FDA fast track designation for Sézary syndrome, to expedite its development and regulatory review in this patient subset (based on preliminary Phase I results that demonstrated significant clinical activity [6]). |
| Immunopharmacology Comments |
| KIR3DL2 mediates NK cell coinhibitory signals when it binds to MHC class I molecules on other cells. Binding to HLA-A3 , HLA-A11 [3] and HLA-B27 [4] has been reported, as has binding to CpG oligodeoxynucleotides [7]. KIR3DL2 is highly expressed on the malignant cells in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), including mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome, and has been reported to promote resistance to NK cell-induced cell death in some CTCLs [8]. Blockade of the suppressive signal mediated by KIR3DL2 using a monoclonal antibody (Innate Pharma's IPH4102) is being investigated as a therapeutic approach for the treatment of T cell lymphomas such as Sézary syndrome [5-6,9]. |

| General Comments |
| KIR3DL2 is one of a family of 18 human genes that encode MHC class I receptors on the surface of nautral killer (NK) cells and some cytotoxic T cell subsets (HGNC gene group link: Killer cell immunoglobulin like receptors (KIR)). Most KIR proteins mediate inhibitory signals that suppress the cytotoxic activity of the NK cell on which they are expressed. KIR3DL2 is an immuno-oncology therapeutic target. |
