BsAb CD73xEGFR outperforms oleclumab as it inhibits the CD73/ADO immune checkpoint in an EGFR-directed manner and concurrently counteracts several oncogenic activities of EGFR and CD73. Therefore, bsAb CD73xEGFR may be of significant clinical potential for various forms of difficult-to-treat solid cancer types.
