Immunogenicity in Clinical Practice and Drug Development: When is it Significant?

Managing immunogenicity in clinical practice and during drug development was a recent topic at the ASCPT 2019 annual meeting. This commentary expands on the discussion to facilitate a broader engagement across the community. The intent is to provide a rationale for ongoing research into the current gaps in assessing and interpreting immunogenicity in drug development and managing clinical immunogenicity for an approved drug. The following are highlighted: (i) Immunogenicity Considerations in Clinical Practice, (ii) Immunogenicity Testing and Current Limitations, (iii) Immunogenicity Risk Assessment and Mitigation, and (iv) Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP) models of Immunogenicity
