Cancer cells may use PD-1 pathway to hide from T cells

KEYTRUDA blocks PD-1 pathway to help prevent cancer cells from hiding

T cells help detect and fight cancer cells but also can attack normal cells

The immune system and T cellsThe immune system is your body’s natural defense against disease. It sends types of cells called T cells throughout your own body to detect and fight infections and diseases—including cancer.

How cancer cells can hide from your immune system’s T cellsOne way your immune system controls the activity of T cells is through the PD-1 pathway. However, some cancer cells hide from T-cell attack by taking control of the PD-1 pathway. This stops T cells from attacking cancer cells.

How KEYTRUDA helps your body fight cancerKEYTRUDA is a type of immunotherapy that works by blocking the PD-1 pathway. KEYTRUDA helps the immune system do what it was meant to do: detect and fight cancer cells. KEYTRUDA can cause your immune system to attack normal organs and tissues in any area of your body and can affect the way they work. These problems can sometimes become serious or life-threatening and can lead to death.
