FDA has approved Kedrion Biopharma and Kmada Ltd.’s KedRab \[rabies immune globulin (human)\] for passive, transient post-exposure prophylaxis of rabies infection, when given immediately after contact with a rabid animal. The human rabies immunoglobulin (HRIG) should be administered concurrently with a full course of rabies vaccine, according to the company. Approval was based on data from a single-center, randomized, comparator HRIG-controlled clinical study of 118 subjects (59 per treatment group).
