py and a more rapid reduction of tumor volume that could potentially improve patient survival.

Pegylation refers to the covalent attachment of polyethylene glycol to a molecule, usually a drug or therapeutic protein. A pegylated molecule may be masked from the immune system and have a prolonged circulatory time due to a reduction in renal clearance. The pegylation of rHuPH20 increases its plasma half-life to greater than 24 hours compared to less than one minute for the unpegylated enzyme, therefore resulting in a longer duration of action.
