DK 221
DK 221 is a PD-L1 blocker with an IC50 of 24.5 nM for inhibiting the binding of PD-L1 to PD-1. DK 221 reduces the uptake of [18F]DK222 in PD-L1-positive tumor cells and mouse xenografts. DK 221 is applicable to research related to triple-negative breast cancer and melanoma.

Biological Activity
DK221 (50 mg/kg; 30 min prior to [18F]DK222 injection) specifically blocks [18F]DK222 binding to PD-L1 in LOX-IMVI melanoma xenografts, resulting in significantly reduced radiotracer tumor uptake at a dose of 50 mg/kg[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
