.2% (15/182) patients, including 5.5% (10/182) patients who required systemic corticosteroid therapy and 2.7% (5/182) patients who required only hormone replacement therapy. Seven patients (3.8%) received an oral prednisone dose equivalent to >40 mg daily for an immune-mediated adverse reaction [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS (5)].
Table 2 summarizes the adverse reactions that occurred in ≥10% of patients, while Table 3 summarizes the Grade 3 − 4 selected laboratory abnormalities that occurred in ≥1% of patients treated with IMFINZI in Study 1.

6.2 Immunogenicity
As with all therapeutic proteins, there is a potential for immunogenicity. The detection of antibody formation is highly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Additionally, the observed incidence of antibody (including neutralizing antibody) positivity in an assay may be influenced by several factors including assay methodology, sample handling, timing of sample collection, concomitant medications, and underlying disease. For these reasons, comparison of the incidence of antibodies to IMFINZI to the incidence of antibodies to other products may be misleading.
Due to the limitations in assay p
