Lantidra: which tox species, and why?

donislecel · Allogeneic pancreatic islets
Species
No studies with product; literature only (diabetic mice, rats, NHP, pigs)
“No nonclinical studies were conducted with LANTIDRA.”
✓ VerifiedFDA pharmacology/toxicology review, p. 2Source ↗
Why that species
Published diabetic rodent and NHP islet transplant models used to support activity, liver distribution and need for immunosuppression
“The findings of these studies support inclusion of immunosuppression as a critical component for successful islet engraftment and survival following transplant in diabetic animals.”
✓ VerifiedFDA pharmacology/toxicology review, p. 2Source ↗
Surrogate molecule
Yes: literature studies with animal allogeneic/syngeneic islets (no studies with clinical product)
“Pancreatic islets were isolated from C57BL/6 or BALB/C mice (9 weeks old, 20-22 g).”
