Relative RNA concentration of IL2RA induced by ex vivo addition of rhIL-21 to whole blood obtained from cynomolgus monkeys before and after treatment with either Ab-01 or control IgG1TM is shown. Pre-dose whole blood sample was taken on day -13 for animal 1, and on day 0 (the day of dosing) for all others. All monkeys were dosed with 10 mg/kg via intravenous (IV) route. The ex vivo response to IL21 was completely blocked in monkeys treated with Ab-01 and was not blocked in control IgG1TM treated monkeys
