Preexisting Immunity against AAVrh74:
| • | | In AAV-vector based gene therapies, preexisting anti-AAV antibodies may impede transgene expression at desired therapeutic levels. Following treatment with ELEVIDYS, all patients developed anti-AAVrh74 antibodies. |
| • | | Perform baseline testing for presence of anti-AAVrh74 total binding antibodies prior to ELEVIDYS administration. |
| • | | ELEVIDYS administration is not recommended in patients with elevated anti-AAVrh74 total binding antibody titers greater than or equal to 1:400. |
Adverse Reactions:
| • | | The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥5%) reported in clinical studies were vomiting, nausea, liver injury, pyrexia, and thrombocytopenia. |
