We undertook this study to characterize in vitro and in vivo the therapeutic potential of acazicolcept (ALPN\u2010101), an Fc fusion protein of a human variant ICOS ligand (ICOSL) domain designed to inhibit both CD28 and ICOS costimulation, in inflammatory arthritis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Acazicolcept was compared in vitro with inhibitors of either the CD28 or ICOS pathways (abatacept and belatacept [CTLA\u20104Ig], prezalumab [anti\u2010ICOSL monoclonal antibody]) in receptor binding and signaling assays, and in a collagen\u2010induced arthritis (CIA) model. Acazicolcept was also compared in cytokine and gene expression assays of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from healthy donors or rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or psoriatic arthritis (PsA) patients stimulated with artificial antigen\u2010presenting cells (APCs) expressing CD28 and ICOS ligands.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Acazicolcept bound CD28 and ICOS, prevented ligand binding, and inhibited human T cell functional interactions, matching or exceeding the activity of CD28 or ICOS costimulatory single\u2010pathway inhibitors tested individually or in combination. Acazicolcept administration significantly reduced disease in the CIA model and more potently than abatacept. Acazicolcept also inhibited proinflammatory cytokine production from stimulated PBMCs in cocultures with artificial APCs and demonstrated unique effects on gene expression distinct from those induced by abatacept, prezalumab, or a combination of both.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Both CD28 and ICOS signaling play critical roles in inflammatory arthritis.
