Tepkinly is a subcutaneous T-cell engaging CD3xCD20 bispecific antibody1,4,5

Tepkinly is a humanised IgG-1 bispecific antibody that binds to a specific extracellular epitope of CD20 on B cells and to CD3 on T cells1

By simultaneously binding CD20-expressing B cells and CD3-expressing T cells, Tepkinly induces specific T-cell activation and T-cell-mediated killing of the CD20-expressing cancer cells1

Tepkinly's Fc region is silenced for direct immune effector mechanisms1

In preclinical studies, Tepkinly demonstrated T-cell-mediated lysis of CD20-expressing cells5
