Genotoxicity
Not conducted (ICH S6(R1)); non-genetically engineered cells
“In accordance with ICH S6(R1), genotoxicity studies with tabelecleucel were not conducted.”
Carcinogenicity
Not conducted (ICH S6(R1)); in vitro EBV transmission/transformation co-culture assay done
“standard carcinogenicity bioassays are generally inappropriate for”
Instead of carcinogenicity
Not stated in public reviews
Not reported in the public reviews. Reviewers summarise selectively, so this usually means it wasn't discussed publicly, not that it wasn't studied.
Instead of genotoxicity
Not applicable: cells not genetically modified
“In accordance with ICH S6(R1), genotoxicity studies with tabelecleucel were not conducted.”
DRG histopathology
Not stated in public reviews
Not reported in the public reviews. Reviewers summarise selectively, so this usually means it wasn't discussed publicly, not that it wasn't studied.
Reproductive & developmental
Not conducted; highly species-specific pharmacology
“Due to the highly species-specific nature of the pharmacology associated with tabelecleucel, nonclinical reproductive/developmental toxicity studies were not submitted with this application.”
Safety pharmacology
Not conducted; species-specific product
“Safety pharmacology studies were not conducted due to the species-specific nature of tabelecleucel and the limited applicability of non-human toxicology models.”
Genotox: Ames
Not conducted (ICH S6(R1))
“In accordance with ICH S6(R1), genotoxicity studies with tabelecleucel were not conducted.”
Genotox: in vitro mammalian
Not conducted (ICH S6(R1))
“In accordance with ICH S6(R1), genotoxicity studies with tabelecleucel were not conducted.”
Genotox: in vivo
Not conducted (ICH S6(R1))
“In accordance with ICH S6(R1), genotoxicity studies with tabelecleucel were not conducted.”
Carcinogenicity model
Not conducted; in vitro co-culture study RPT-129-1002 of EBV transmission and tumorigenic effect
“The applicant conducted study RPT-129-1002 to investigate potential EBV transmission and tumorigenic effect.”
Carcinogenicity timing
Not required (ICH S6(R1): standard bioassays inappropriate)
“Tabelecleucel has not demonstrated, and is not anticipated to have, carcinogenic potential and as stated in ICH S6(R1), standard carcinogenicity bioassays are generally inappropriate for”
hERG / QT
Not conducted (species-specific product)
“Safety pharmacology studies were not conducted due to the species-specific nature of tabelecleucel and the limited applicability of non-human toxicology models.”
