Abstract

Background and Objectives: A new intravenous immunoglobulin (IGIV) process has been developed that integrates efficient inactivation of enveloped virus, using caprylate, with immunoglobulin G (IgG) purification and caprylate removal by column chromatography. Two clinical studies were conducted to compare the pharmacokinetics of the new product, IGIV-C, 10% (Gamunex™, 10%), formulated with glycine, with the licensed solvent-detergent (SD)-treated intravenous immunoglobulin IGIV-SD, 10% (Gamimune
