Background Demcizumab (dancizumab, OMP-21M18) is a humanized monoclonal antibody (IGG2) developed by OncoMed Pharmaceuticals, targeting DLL4(Delta-like ligand 4) , which belongs to the Notch signaling pathway inhibitor. The core mechanism is the inhibition of the Notch pathway by blocking the binding of DLL4 to NOTCH1/4 receptors, and the inhibition of the Notch signaling pathway by the DLL4-like ligand, induction of tumorigenic “Non-functional angiogenesis”(vascular endothelial hyperproliferation but lack of intact lumen and blood flow perfusion, aggravating tumor hypoxia) and reduction of tumor stem cell (CSCs) frequency, while potentially modulating the immune microenvironment.
