Bizengri: animal efficacy model or human cells?

zenocutuzumab · HER2 x HER3
Efficacy evidence
Mouse xenografts: HER2+ breast cancer (JIMT-1) and NRG1 fusion-positive lung and pancreatic patient-derived xenografts
“In vivo, zenocutuzumab showed antitumor activity in a HER2-positive breast cancer cell line xenograft model, which was associated with inhibition of HER2:HER3 dimerization and PI3K/Akt signaling.”

Why that model
Not stated in public reviews
Not reported in the public reviews. Reviewers summarise selectively, so this usually means it wasn't discussed publicly, not that it wasn't studied.
Reviewer's view of the efficacy data
FDA: in vitro and xenograft/PDX studies support the proposed mechanism of action; nonclinical data adequate for approval
“derived xenograft (PDX) models. These studies support the proposed mechanism of action of zenocutuzumab.”
