FDA Briefing Document Endocrinologic and Metabolic Drugs Advisory Committee Meeting May 27, 2021 FDA Briefing Document Endocrinologic and Metabolic Drugs Advisory Committee Meeting May 27, 2021 Teplizumab BLA 761183 The committee will discuss the safety and efficacy of the Biologics License Application (BLA) 761183, for PRV-031, or teplizumab (proposed trade name TZIELD), an intravenous infusion submitted by Provention Bio, Inc. The proposed indication is for the delay of clinical type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) in at-risk individuals. Date Prepared: April 30, 2021 Department of Health & Human Services Food & Drug Administration Center for Drug Evaluation & Research Office of New Drugs Office of Cardiology, Hematology, Endocrinology, and Nephrology Division of Diabetes, Lipid Disorders, and Obesity Silver Spring, MD 20993 BLA 761183 Teplizumab The attached package contains background information prepared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the panel members of the advisory committee. The FDA background package often contains assessments and/or conclusions and recommendations written by individual FDA reviewers. Such conclusions and recommendations do not necessarily represent the final position of the individual reviewers, nor do they necessarily represent the final position of the Review Division or Office. We have brought this application for PRV-031 to this Advisory Committee in order to gain the Committee’s insights and opinions. The background package may not include all issues relevant to the final regulatory recommendation, but is instead intended to focus on issues identified by the Agency for discussion by the advisory committee. The FDA will not issue a final determination on the issues at hand until input from the advisory committee process has been considered and all reviews have been finalized. The final determination may be affected by issues not discussed at the advisory committee meeting. 2 BLA 761183 Teplizumab Table of Contents Table of Tables............................................................................................................. 5 Tables of Figures .......................................................................................................... 6 Glossary ....................................................................................................................... 7 1.

It is made available under aCC-BY 4.0 International license. Title: Looking for Therapeutic Antibodies in Next Generation Sequencing Repositories. Authors: Konrad Krawczyk1*, Matthew Raybould2, Aleksandr Kovaltsuk2, Charlotte M. Deane2 1 NaturalAntibody, Hamburg, Germany 2 Oxford University Department of Statistics, Oxford, UK *Correspondence to [email protected] Abstract: Recently it has become possible to query the great diversity of natural antibody repertoires using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS). These methods are capable of producing millions of sequences in a single experiment. Here we compare Clinical Stage Therapeutic antibodies to the ~1b sequences from 60 independent sequencing studies in the Observed Antibody Space Database. Of the 242 post Phase I antibodies, we find 16 with sequence identity matches of 95% or better for both heavy and light chains. There are also 54 perfect matches to therapeutic CDR-H3 regions in the NGS outputs, suggesting a nontrivial amount of convergence between naturally observed sequences and those developed artificially. This has potential implications for both the discovery of antibody therapeutics and the legal protection of commercial antibodies. Introduction Antibodies are proteins in jawed vertebrates that recognize noxious molecules (antigens) for elimination. An organism expresses millions of diverse antibodies to increase the chances that some of them will be able to bind the foreign antigen, initiating the adaptive immune response.

  • Understanding Your Lab Results: Comprehensive Metabolic Screening Panel
    Understanding Your Lab Results: Comprehensive Metabolic Screening Panel CHOLESTEROL and TRIGLYCERIDES are fats necessary for normal cell function. However, elevated levels of these fats have been associated with an increased risk of developing coronary disease, arteriosclerosis, and heart attack. A patient’s dietary status, medications, presence of illness, lifestyle, and family history may represent factors influencing cholesterol levels. The signifi- cance of cholesterol levels should be determined within the context of each individual patient. If your cholesterol level is 200 mg/dl or greater, please consult your physician. Triglyceride levels greater than 150 mg/dl, in a true fasting specimen, are considered elevated. In this case, please consult your physician. HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein) CHOLESTEROL, commonly known as the “GOOD” cholesterol, picks up cholesterol and transports it for removal from the body. The higher the HDL value, the lower the risk of developing coronary disease, arterioscle- rosis, and heart attack. LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein) CHOLESTEROL, commonly known as the “BAD” cholesterol, picks up cholesterol and transports it to the cells of the body for storage. Desirable LDL levels are less than 130 mg/dl. The higher the LDL value, the greater the risk of developing coronary disease, arteriosclerosis, and heart attack. CHOLESTEROL/HDL RATIO is a calculation used to predict an increased or decreased risk of cardiovascular disease relative to a normal. The higher the ratio, the greater the risk of developing coronary disease, arteriosclerosis, and heart attack. GLUCOSE, commonly called a blood sugar, is the transport form of carbohydrates in the body as they move to storage or to utiliza- tion.
