Uses & Benefits
Medical applications
Keytruda Injection, containing Pembrolizumab 100mg, is a humanized monoclonal antibody used as an immune checkpoint inhibitor in oncology. It specifically targets the programmed death-1 (PD-1) receptor on T-cells, blocking its interaction with PD-L1 and PD-L2 ligands, thereby enhancing the immune system's ability to detect and destroy cancer cells. Keytruda is indicated for the treatment of various malignancies, including but not limited to, unresectable or metastatic melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), classical Hodgkin lymphoma, urothelial carcinoma, and microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) cancers.
