Frequently asked questions about Thymoglobulin

What is Thymoglobulin used for?

Thymoglobulin is an investigational monoclonal antibody being studied for use in renal transplantation, liver dysfunction, and relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. In clinical trials, it has been evaluated for preventing renal transplant rejection, preventing delayed graft function and acute allograft rejection in cadaveric donor renal transplantation, and for treating relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Who makes Thymoglobulin?

Thymoglobulin is being developed by Sanofi, a company traded on the stock exchange under the ticker SNY. Sanofi is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the drug's safety and efficacy in transplantation and oncology settings.

What phase is Thymoglobulin in?

Thymoglobulin is in Phase 2 clinical development. It has completed Phase 2 trials for renal transplantation and liver dysfunction, and a Phase 1 trial for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. The drug remains investigational and is not approved for any use.

What clinical trials is Thymoglobulin in?

Thymoglobulin has been studied in several completed clinical trials. NCT00089947 evaluated it for preventing renal transplant rejection, NCT00117689 for liver transplant rejection, NCT00235300 for preventing delayed graft function in cadaveric donor renal transplantation, and NCT00545519 for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

How does Thymoglobulin work?

Thymoglobulin is a monoclonal antibody. Its specific molecular target has not been disclosed in the available clinical trial information, so its precise mechanism of action is not described here.

Is Thymoglobulin the same as Simulect?

Thymoglobulin is not the same as Simulect. In clinical trial NCT00235300, Thymoglobulin was compared directly against Simulect for the prevention of delayed graft function and acute allograft rejection in renal allograft recipients, indicating they are distinct treatments.
