- 2. Cantor Fitzgerald analysts commented, "XmAb5871 likely the asset of greatest interest in 2018. The B cell-targeting MAb is being tested in patients with IgG4 related disease (IgG4-RD) and in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with Phase 3 testing for the former expected to start in 2Q18 and data from Phase 2 testing for the latter expected in 4Q18. Because the MAb modulates B cell activity but does not eliminate them, we believe the safety profile could be regarded to be superior as compared with other therapies, e.g., Rituxan." (3/29/2018)
