PAPZIMEOS has been shown to be well tolerated. There were no Grade >2 ARs in the pivotal trial.1,4
In the clinical trial, there were no treatment discontinuations due to ARs. All patients received 4 doses of PAPZIMEOS. There were no dose-limiting toxicities or treatment-related serious ARs.1,4
No new ARs were observed during long-term follow-up.5†
Median duration of 36 months (range, 27-37 months).5
