“Genotoxicity studies with elranatamab have not been conducted since they are generally not required for protein-based biotherapeutics per ICH S6(R1).”
“Carcinogenicity studies with elranatamab have not been conducted since they are generally not required for advanced cancer and protein-based biotherapeutics per ICH S9 and ICH S6(R1), respectively.”

Reproductive & developmental
Not conducted (weight-of-evidence); reproductive organs assessed in 3-month monkey study, no effects
“Embryofetal developmental toxicity was evaluated using a weight of evidence (WOE) risk assessment”

Safety pharmacology
Incorporated into repeat-dose monkey studies (ECG, heart rate; respiratory/CNS by clinical observation)
“No safety pharmacology studies were conducted. Safety pharmacology was evaluated as part of the general toxicology studies performed with elranatamab.”

Genotox: Ames
Not conducted (ICH S6)
“Genotoxicity studies with elranatamab have not been conducted since they are generally not required for protein-based biotherapeutics per ICH S6(R1).”

Not required for advanced cancer and protein-based biotherapeutics
“Carcinogenicity studies with elranatamab have not been conducted since they are generally not required for advanced cancer and protein-based biotherapeutics per ICH S9 and ICH S6(R1), respectively.”
No hERG assay; no ECG or heart rate effects in monkey toxicology studies
“We agree that the safety pharmacology assessment in the toxicology studies in cynomolgus monkeys did not show elranatamab induced effects on cardiovascular endpoints (ECG or heart rate).”
