  • STRUCTURE


    CD4 is a type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein of the Ig superfamily. The extracellular domain contains 4 Ig-like domains and is followed by a transmembrane domain.1-3 CD4 has a cytoplasmic tail located in the N-terminal region with a CXCP motif for signalling.1,3

    Through its interaction with MHC class II, CD4 is involved in thymic selection as well as Th cell activation and differentiation.1-3 Interaction with gp17 inhibits CD4/TCR-mediated T-cell apoptosis.4 CD4 is involved in IL16 T-cell migration and RANTES/eotaxin release from eosinophils.5-6 CD4 also modulates cytokine secretion and migration of NK cells.7

    Therapeutic

    Ibalizumab (TNX-355) is a humanized monoclonal antibody against CD4 that has been studied for the treatment of HIV-1 infection.1 A phase III study of Ibalizumab has been successfully completed and is currently waiting for FDA approval.

    HuMax-CD4 (zanolimumab) is also a human monoclonal antibody against CD4. It has been studied for the treatment of cutaneous and non-cutaneous T-cell lymphoma2-3, mycosis fungoides4 and rheumatoid arthritis in phase II/III clinical trials.5 HuMax-CD4 was awarded Fast Tract candidate for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma and Orphan drug for mycosis fungoides by the FDA.6

    Tregalizumab (BT-061) is a humanized non-depleting monoclonal antibody against CD4 which is able to activate regulatory T cells.7 Phase two studies of Tregalizumab have been performed in psoriasis8 and rheumatoid arthritis.9
