"Cytokine Storm" in the Phase I Trial of Monoclonal Antibody TGN1412: Better Understanding the Causes to Improve PreClinical Testing of Immunotherapeutics
Open accessAbstract
The CD28-specific mAb TGN1412 rapidly caused a life-threatening "cytokine storm" in all six healthy volunteers in the Phase I clinical trial of this superagonist, signaling a failure of preclinical safety testing. We report novel in vitro procedures in which TGN1412, immobilized in various ways, is presented to human white blood cells in a manner that stimulates the striking release of cytokines and profound lymphocyte proliferation that occurred in vivo in humans. The novel procedures would have predicted the toxicity of this superagonist and are now being applied to emerging immunotherapeutics and to other therapeutics that have the potential to act upon the immune system. Data from these novel procedures, along with data from in vitro and in vivo studies in nonhuman primates, suggest that the dose of TGN1412 given to human volunteers was close to the maximum immunostimulatory dose and that TGN1412 is not a superagonist in nonhuman primates.

The maximum dose of TGN1412 given to macaques was 50 mg/kg, which is 500 times the human dose.
“TGN1412 was injected into volunteers at 0.1 mg/kg and into monkeys at up to the much higher dose of 50 mg/kg, i.e., 500ϫ the human dose.”

The in vitro presentation of TGN1412 to PBMC that elicits cytokine release and proliferation mimics the in vivo presentation that caused the clinical toxicity.
“they did not present the Ab to white blood cells in a manner that mimicked its presentation in vivo.”
The paper relies on this without support.
The in vitro concentration of TGN1412 can be converted to an equivalent in vivo dose in humans.
“this calculation relies upon an extrapolation from an in vivo dose to an in vitro concentration and, more fundamentally, from an in vivo study in humans to an in vitro study using isolated human white blood cells.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-09-28, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-09-28 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
