Lack of reference standards inhibits ability to make comparisons between products or set caps for total vector genome dose or total capsid dose, advisory committee says; panelists suggest other approaches to prevent and mitigate toxicities, including running longer-term animal studies and investigating the efficacy of immunosuppression prophylaxis and treatment strategies.
