Establishing maximum tolerated doses for a 2-year combined chronic/carcinogenicity rat study based on toxicokinetic and toxicity gender differences.
Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology : RTP 2017 November
For agrochemicals tested in a carcinogenicity rodent study, it is often not possible to use the same high dose to achieve maximum tolerated dose (MTDs) without overdosing or insufficiently challenging one gender if significant gender differences are known. Toxicokinetic (TK) data for pesticide FR from a 28-day rat study showed that males required a 3-fold higher external dose compared to females to produce similar internal exposure levels of the parent compound. In the 90-day study, 8%/17% (M/F) decrease in bodyweight gain (BWG) and 15%/15% (M/F) increase in relative liver weights were observed in the 6000 ppm males and 2000 ppm females, respectively. Based on the above TK and toxicity data, different high dose levels were selected for females (1600 ppm) and males (4800 ppm) for a 2-year combined chronic/carcinogenicity study in rats. In the 2-year study, 14%, 13%, 13% and 21% reduction in BWG of males and 10%, 12%, 19% and 20% reduction in BWG of females were observed at weeks 13, 26, 52 and 104, respectively in the highest dose tested. Similar reductions in bodyweight gain in males and females at the different high dose levels clearly demonstrated that appropriate MTDs were reached. Therefore, it is scientifically sound and practical to use TK and toxicity data to use different high dose levels to achieve MTDs for a pesticide with large gender differences.
