Tumors can produce a protein called PD-L1 that suppresses the immune system’s ability to attack cancer cells. Tecentriq (atezolizumab) works by blocking PD-L1, freeing the immune system to recognize and fight the tumor. Clinical trials have reported that this blockade reduces tumor growth, with enhanced results achieved when Tecentriq is used in combination with other targeted treatments that enhance immune cell activity within the tumor.  Tecentriq belongs to the drug class called PD-L1 blocking antibodies. It is also called an immune checkpoint inhibitor or monoclonal antibody. tecentriq price
