Studies that did not test the peptide alone3

In this study, LTX-315 was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking LTX-315.

    Summary
    This synergistic interaction between CTLA4 blockade and LTX-315 was reduced upon blockade of the β-chain of the interleukin-2 receptor (CD122).

    In this study, LTX-315 was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking LTX-315.
