Trogarzo: what safety margin did regulators accept?

ibalizumab · CD4
Check my plan vs. these
Safety margin at NOAEL
Cynomolgus NOAEL (ADA-negative animals) ~4x exposure at MRHD
“At the NOAEL ibalizumab exposure in cynomolgus monkeys without an anti-ibalizumab response was approximately 4 fold exposure at the MRHD.”

NOAEL / key findings
Cynomolgus monkey: glomerulopathy and reduced albumin only in animals with strong anti-drug antibody responses
“Multifocal glomerulopathy was observed together with reduced albumin levels, which can be an indication for protein loss through the kidney. As these effects were observed only in animals with a strong antibody response against ibalizumab, its relevance for humans is limited.”
