tabelecleucel · EBV-specific allogeneic T cells
Check my plan vs. these
Genotoxicity
Not conducted (ICH S6(R1)); non-genetically engineered cells
“In accordance with ICH S6(R1), genotoxicity studies with tabelecleucel were not conducted.”
✓ VerifiedEMA assessment report, p. 29Source ↗
Carcinogenicity
Not conducted (ICH S6(R1)); in vitro EBV transmission/transformation co-culture assay done
“standard carcinogenicity bioassays are generally inappropriate for”
✓ VerifiedEMA assessment report, p. 29Source ↗
Reproductive & developmental
Not conducted; highly species-specific pharmacology
“Due to the highly species-specific nature of the pharmacology associated with tabelecleucel, nonclinical reproductive/developmental toxicity studies were not submitted with this application.”
✓ VerifiedEMA assessment report, p. 29Source ↗
Safety pharmacology
Not conducted; species-specific product
“Safety pharmacology studies were not conducted due to the species-specific nature of tabelecleucel and the limited applicability of non-human toxicology models.”
✓ VerifiedEMA assessment report, p. 27Source ↗
