Background: B-lymphocyte antigen CD19 (Cluster of Differentiation 19), also known as B-Lymphocyte Surface Antigen B4 and CVID3C, is a transmembrane protein expressed in follicular dendritic cells and all B lineage cells except plasma cells. CD19 plays two major roles in human B cells. It acts as an adaptor protein to recruit cytoplasmic signaling proteins to the membrane and it works within the CD19/CD21 complex to decrease the threshold for B cell receptor signaling pathways. Due to its presence on all B cells, it is a biomarker for B lymphocyte development and lymphoma diagnosis and can be utilized as a target for leukemia immunotherapies. CD19-targeted therapies based on T cells that express CD19-specific chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) have been utilized for their antitumor abilities in patients with CD19+ lymphoma and leukemia, such as Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma (NHL), CLL and ALL.

Description: Loncastuximab tesirine is a human cluster of differentiation 19 (CD19)-directed antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). Once bound to CD19 on the cell membrane, loncastuximab tesirine is rapidly internalised and triggers cell death. Loncastuximab tesirin induces cell apoptosis, it can be used for the research of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma1,2.
