No NOAEL in mice; liver/heart lesions at 0.7- to 1.4-fold the clinical dose, mortality at 2-3 times the clinical dose
“occurrence of tissue lesions (primarily liver and ventricle) already found in doses 0.7- to 1.4-fold the clinical dose and the striking mortality in mice at doses 2-3 the clinical dose required discussion.”
NOAEL not identified (mouse); MTD 1.5x10^14 vg/kg; heart (atrial thrombosis, myocarditis) and liver toxicity; mortality >=2.4x10^14
“Based on the lack of similar cardiovascular toxicities resulting in Zolgensma-related mortality, the low dose of 1.5 x 1014 vg/kg was defined as the maximum tolerated dose (MTD).”
