Ipilimumab (Yervoy) is a humanized monoclonal antibody that is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Ipilimumab works to activate the immune system by targeting CTLA-4 (Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte protein 4), a negative regulator of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte activity. Ipilimumab binds to CTLA-4, blocking the inhibitory signal, which allows the cytotoxic T-lymphocytes to destroy the cancer cells.
