The PD-1/PD-L1 pathway as an immunotherapy target against cancer

Abstract: The PD-1/PD-L1 pathway attenuates tissue destruction by limiting the activity of T cells, a situation that can be used by cancer to its advantage. Thus, blocking the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway provides a basis for immunotherapy against cancer, which is very promising when considering the high inci...

description Abstract: The PD-1/PD-L1 pathway attenuates tissue destruction by limiting the activity of T cells, a situation that can be used by cancer to its advantage. Thus, blocking the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway provides a basis for immunotherapy against cancer, which is very promising when considering the high incidence and mortality rates that this disease currently presents. Therefore, this research consists of a descriptive bibliographic review that was performed using the database of the System of Libraries, Documentation, and Information of the University of Costa Rica (SIBDI in Spanish) and the website Google Scholar. The objective of this review is to determine the role of the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway as an immune checkpoint, in addition to the application of the PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibitor drugs in immunotherapy against cancer. It was concluded that PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors have high rates of antitumor response and survival, as well as better tolerance than traditional antitumor drugs. Finally, combination therapy and the use of biomarkers are recommended to obtain a higher tumor progression-free survival, a personalized therapy and a favorable outcome for the patient.

El bloqueo de la vía PD-1/PD-L1 proporciona entonces, una base para la inmunoterapia contra el cáncer, lo cual resulta muy prometedor al considerar las altas tasas de incidencia y mortalidad que presenta dicha enfermedad en la actualidad. La presente investigación consiste en una revisión bibliográfica descriptiva realizada mediante la consulta de la base de datos Sistema de Bibliotecas, Documentación e Información (SIBDI) de la Universidad de Costa Rica y el sitio web Google Scholar (Google Académico). El objetivo de esta revisión es determinar la función de la vía de PD-1/PD-L1 como punto de control inmunológico, junto con la aplicación y el alcance de los fármacos inhibidores de PD-1 y PD-L1 en la inmunoterapia contra el cáncer. Se concluye que los inhibidores de PD-1/PD-L1 presentan altas tasas de respuesta antitumoral y supervivencia, así como una mejor tolerancia en comparación a fármacos antitumorales tradicionales.  Finalmente, se recomienda la terapia combinada y el uso de biomarcadores para obtener una mayor supervivencia libre de progresión tumoral, una terapia personalizada y un resultado favorable para el paciente.Universidad de Costa Rica2021-10-24info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionartículo originalhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdftext/xmlaudio/mpeghttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/medica/article/view/4862510.15517/rmucr.v15i2.48625Revista Médica de la Universidad de Costa Rica; Vol. 15 No. 2 (2021): Medical Journal of the University of Costa Rica Volume 15, Number 2 October 2021-April 2022; 61-81Revista Médica de la Universidad de Costa Rica; Vol. 15 Núm. 2 (2021): Revista Medica de la Universidad de Costa Rica Volumen 15, Número 2 Octubre 2021-Abril de 2022; 61-811659-2441reponame:Portal de Revistas UCRinstname:Universidad de Costa Ricainstacron:UCRspahttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/medica/article/view/48625/48375https://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/medica/article/view/48625/48493https://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/medica/article/view/48625/48495Derechos de autor 2021 ©acceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-03-01T19:48:40Zoai:portal.ucr.ac.cr:article/48625Portal de revistashttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/Universidadhttp://www.ucr.ac.crhttps://revistas.ucr.ac.cr/index.php/index/oaijorge.polanco@ucr.ac.crCosta RicaNo aplicaNo aplicaNo aplicaopendoar:2025-08-13T10:50:27.080Portal de Revistas UCR - Universidad de Costa Ricafalse
