Ieramilimab (development code LAG525) is a monoclonal antibody being developed by Novartis for the treatment of cancer. The antibody targets the immune checkpoint LAG-3, which is expressed on T cells and tends to down-regulate an immune response. In a June 2015 presentation Novartis management indicated that 'dosing is imminent' for the first clinical trials of LAG525.[1]
