Abstract
A method of reducing or relieving immune inhibition in a mammal includes the step of at least partly inhibiting or reducing CD96 activity in one or more cells of the mammal to thereby relieve immune inhibition and/or enhance or restore immune surveillance in the mammal. Typically, inhibiting or reducing CD96 activity does not include, or depend upon, killing of CD96-expressing cells in the mammal. The method relieves immune inhibition and/or enhances or restores immune surveillance in the mammal to thereby treat or prevent cancer or cancer metastasis and/or a viral infection in the mammal. Also provided is a method of screening, designing, engineering or otherwise producing a CD96-inhibitory agent that relieves immune inhibition and/or enhances or restores immune surveillance in a mammal. Typically, the CD96-inhibitory agent is an antibody or antibody fragment.
