Reported/compiled observations: The review frames multispecific designs around three mechanism classes: (i) blocking multiple disease markers/pathways, (ii) engaging non-overlapping epitopes on the same target to drive clustering/trafficking changes, and (iii) redirecting adaptive or innate immune cells to proximal disease sites.
Design logic (author interpretation): It argues that mechanism-driven format selection can overcome limitations of monospecific antibodies (e.g., insufficient mechanistic coverage or resistance) but introduces additional constraints such as correct chain pairing, interdependent arm kinetics/orientation, stability/solubility/PK, and immunogenicity/safety risks.
BGPT critical note (uncertainty): Because this is a narrative review (not a pre-registered systematic review/meta-analysis), effect sizes across designs/indications are not synthesized quantitatively; the βmechanism-drivenβ causal strength must be verified per target/format.
