Correlations between preclinical BJAB assay ranking of antisense drugs and clinical trial adverse events.

ABSTRACT: This analysis sought to assess the clinical predictivity of an in vitro assay which utilized the human B-lymphoma BJAB cell line, for identification of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) with the potential to elicit innate immune activation in humans. Adverse events (AEs) from clinical trial data were analyzed based on prior clinical knowledge and network analysis of the clinical data to identify correlations with the BJAB assay. Clinically evaluated ASOs were ranked by the BJAB assay's mean log-fold increase in TNF expression levels. Flu-like reactions (FLRs) and injection site reactions (ISRs), were chosen as AEs of interest, along with those Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities preferred terms identified using AE network analysis. Fifteen different 2'-O-methoxyethyl (2'MOE) modif
