For those interested the data on the P II Anti-CD11a or hu1124 of Genentech is available from XOMA. The P II involved fewer subjects, (90) than the Amevive P II. It had 30 in the .3 mg/kg treatment arm. So the dose was twice that of the highest Amevive dose. Treatment however was for 8 wks. vs 12. Population was subjects with moderate to severe psoriasis over 10% or more of their body surface with a PASI score of at least 12. Evaluation was done at 56 days 8 weeks. Follow up at 91 days after last treatment and followed until CD11a expression on CD+ T lymphocytes is at least 80% of baseline for at least 140 days.

Acute adverse effects, within 24 hours of dosing, were provide in the data for all three arms of the trial. I could not find this information for the Amevive trial.

I am not able to draw a meaningful conclusion from this information. Any help would be appreciated.
