This Certificate of Analysis covers batch LZ-TRV-260825 of Trevogrumab (Anti-Myostatin / GDF-8 mAb), manufactured on August 25, 2026 and analysed on August 27, 2026. This is a co-formulation of 2 components: Monomer, Non-Reduced. Each is assayed against its own reference standard, and the headline figure of 99.1% is the LOWEST single-component purity, not a figure for the mixture. Identity was confirmed by mass spectrometry at 144,041 Da, within the expected 144,038 ± 100 Da. The batch was released on August 29, 2026 and independently confirmed by Janoshik Analytical, working to ISO/IEC 17025:2017. Every figure below is specific to this batch.

Positive-ion electrospray spectrum for this batch.
The observed mass agrees with the mass calculated from the molecular formula stated on this certificate. No adducts, truncations or oxidation products were observed above 0.5% of the base peak.
Electrophoresis
SDS-PAGE for this batch. Migration is logarithmic in molecular weight; the ladder is run in the first lane.

Result
Charge variant distribution
Imaged capillary isoelectric focusing (icIEF)
Main isoform ≥ 60%; profile comparable to the reference standard
Main 74.7%, acidic 15.9%, basic 10.2%; profile comparable
Charge heterogeneity is invisible to size-exclusion and to intact mass after deglycosylation, so it is the method that would catch deamidation or C-terminal lysine variation.

Purity range 99.03% to 99.10%, 0.07 percentage points across 3 lots, against ≥98.0%. Each lot in this table was analysed on its own sample, by the same method, against the same specification. The most recent row is the lot this certificate covers. Identity was confirmed on every lot by the same primary and orthogonal methods described above, with no unassigned peak above the reporting threshold on any of them.

Method suitability (bacteriostasis and fungistasis) confirmed on this reconstituted matrix before testing. Endotoxin testing and sterility are separate questions. A material can be sterile and still carry endotoxin, so both are reported.
