EMA: "Based on the review of the data, at the time of the withdrawal, the CHMP had some concerns and was of the provisional opinion that Entolimod TMC could not have been approved to reduce the risk of death following exposure to potentially lethal amounts of radiation. The CHMP’s main concern was that there was insufficient evidence from studies, including the macaque study, to determine the effects of the medicine in humans and how it should be used. In addition, there were questions about whether the company had sufficient measures in place to ensure the manufacturing of Entolimod TMC was properly controlled. Therefore, at the time of the withdrawal, the CHMP was of the opinion that the benefits of Entolimod TMC did not outweigh its risks" Therapeutic value Current treatment options Geen Therapeutic value No judgement This assessment does not indicate any potential inclusion in the package.

References Additional remarks Een mogelijk probleem bij de indicatie-uitbreiding voor solide tumoren is dat de stralenbescherming die als het werkt, ook op de tumor werkt. Op dit aspect zijn de trials niet gericht. De werkgroep verwacht dat het gebruik van entolimod voor deze indicatie dan ook laag zal zijn. Other information Additional remarks
