First-in-human starting dose
No nonclinical basis; target 10,000 EIN/kg from prior Edmonton Protocol clinical experience
“In both UIH-001 & UIH-002 studies a target islet dose of 10,000 EIN/kg was proposed based on the findings of previous experience with Edmonton Protocol for allogeneic islet transplantation.”

Longest repeat-dose systemic studies
Longest repeat-dose study and recovery
No repeat-dose study (no toxicology studies conducted; published literature instead)
“No toxicology studies with LANTIDRA were conducted. The applicant provided publications assessing the overall safety of islet allografts following intraportal transplantation in Module 4 of the BLA.”

Carcinogenicity
Species: carcinogenicity
Not conducted; publications in diabetic rats with intraportal islet transplants cited
“No carcinogenicity/tumorigenicity studies with LANITDRA were conducted. The applicant cited two publications that examined the potential for hepatic carcinogenicity following intraportal transplantation of allogeneic islets in diabetic rats.”
✓ VerifiedFDA pharmacology/toxicology review, p. 21Source ↗
Carcinogenicity model
Not conducted; literature: low-number intraportal islet grafts in diabetic rats caused liver tumors, high numbers did not; risk judged low
“This combination of islet number, hyperinsulinism, and hyperglycemia resulted in liver tumors. Transplantation of high numbers of islets did not result in hepatic neoplasms.”
