Reproductive & developmental
Not conducted (weight-of-evidence assessment; B-cell depletion and cytokine release risk to pregnancy)
“While no animal studies were conducted to assess the reproductive and developmental risks of glofitamab, a weight of evidence (WoE)-based risk assessment report was submitted.”
