nadofaragene firadenovec · IFN-alpha2b (adenovirus, intravesical)Cynomolgus monkey for rAd-IFN/Syn3 GLP tox; rat and monkey for excipient Syn3
Imlygic: which tox species, and why?
talimogene laherparepvec · GM-CSF (oncolytic HSV-1)
Species
Mouse (BALB/c) for GLP tox; single-dose studies also in rats and dogs; no permissive/relevant species for human GM-CSF
“Exploratory and GLP-compliant repeat dose toxicity studies were conducted in Balb/c mice with up to 12 weekly doses.”
Why that species
Mouse used with mouse surrogate virus because human GM-CSF does not bind mouse receptor; human GM-CSF not bioactive in mice
“The expressed human GM-CSF is not bioactive in the mice, thus the findings are likely not related to exposure to this human protein.”
Surrogate molecule
Yes: mouse surrogate HSV-1 encoding murine GM-CSF (OncoVEXmGM-CSF) for pharmacology; clinical virus used in tox
“A mouse surrogate HSV-1 vector encoding the murine GM-CSF (OncoVEXmGM-CSF; JS1/34.5-/47-/mGM-CSF) was developed and used for the in vivo mouse studies because of the inability of human GM-CSF to bind to mouse GM-CSF receptor.”
Species: general tox
Mouse (BALB/c, up to 12 weeks); additional single-dose studies in rats and dogs
“The nonclinical toxicology studies consisted of general toxicity studies up to 12 weeks in mice and an embryo-foetal development study in mice. Additional single dose studies were also conducted in rats and dogs.”
Species: DART
Mouse (embryo-fetal development only)
“The potential for reproductive or developmental toxicity of talimogene laherparepvec was evaluated in an embryo-foetal toxicity study conducted in the mouse.”
Species: carcinogenicity
Not conducted (ICH S9)
“In accordance with the ICH S9 guideline, no carcinogenicity studies have been conducted.”
Surrogate used in
Yes: mouse surrogate HSV-1 encoding murine GM-CSF (OncoVEXmGM-CSF) for in vivo mouse studies
“A mouse surrogate HSV-1 vector encoding the murine GM-CSF (OncoVEXmGM-CSF; JS1/34.5-/47-/mGM-CSF) was developed and used for the in vivo mouse studies because of the inability of human GM-CSF to bind to mouse GM-CSF receptor.”
