This guideline contributes to the international harmonization of methods used for the target animal safety (TAS) evaluation of veterinary monoclonal antibody products (VMAPs) and aids in preparing and conducting VMAP TAS studies under laboratory and field conditions. A harmonized standard is intended to aid in development of mutually acceptable VMAP TAS programs. It is expected that harmonized guidance will accelerate the development and commercialization of novel VMAPs, leading to increased innovation and access to such products in veterinary medicine.
