Figure Lengend Snippet: Pharmacokinetic studies in Swiss wild-type mice and Sprague Dawley rats. A, Healthy female Swiss wild-type mice were injected intravenously with 5 mg/kg unconjugated polatuzumab, anti–CD79b-RKAA-MMAE, or PV ( n = 5 per group). Plasma was collected at different time points after injection, and total IgG and intact ADC concentrations were determined by ELISA. Data represent mean plasma concentrations (±SD). B, Male Sprague Dawley rats were injected intravenously with 10 mg/kg of anti–CD79b-RKAA-MMAE (top graph) or 10 mg/kg of PV (bottom graph) in a repeat-dose study ( n = 5 per group). Animals were injected weekly for a total of four injections. Graphs show plasma concentration–time curves after the fourth dose, including the predose concentration measurement (0 hours).

The bias is indicated by the distance between the zero-difference line ( X -axis) and the solid green line. The limits of agreement are represented by the dashed lines parallel to the X -axis. Numerical values for the bias and limits of agreement are displayed adjacent to their respective lines.
