Ziihera: genotox, carcinogenicity and repro: done or skipped?

zanidatamab · HER2 x HER2 (biparatopic)
Genotoxicity
Not conducted (ICH S6(R1), ICH S9)
“Thus, mutagenicity studies are considered inappropriate and were not conducted.”
✓ VerifiedFDA multi-discipline review, p. 45Source ↗
Carcinogenicity
Not conducted (ICH S9; advanced cancer, no mechanistic concern)
“Thus, given the intended patient population and lack of mechanistic concern, carcinogenicity studies are not planned with zanidatamab (ICH S9)”
✓ VerifiedFDA multi-discipline review, p. 46Source ↗
Reproductive & developmental
Not conducted; weight-of-evidence, HER2 antibody class embryo-fetal toxicant (oligohydramnios)
“Consequently, the conduct of de novo developmental and reproductive toxicity (DART) studies is not warranted for zanidatamab.”
✓ VerifiedFDA multi-discipline review, p. 46Source ↗
Safety pharmacology
Incorporated into 13-week monkey study (CV, respiratory, CNS); no effects
“Stand-alone safety pharmacology studies were not performed; however, appropriate safety assessments were included in the 13- week repeat-dose toxicology study”
