Chimpanzee exposure (Cmax 0.9-1.36 ng/mL) higher than human Css at 9 and 28 µg/day; no NOAEL or multiple stated
“The exposure of chimpanzees in term of AUCinf was 2.9 (M) and 5.6 (F) ng.h/mL with Cmax of 0.9 (M) and 1.36 (F) ng/mL, i.e. higher than Css reached at the clinical doses of 9 µg/day (211 pg/mL) and 28 µg/day (621 pg/mL)”
No NOAEL assigned; lymphoid tissues target organs (lymphocyte depletion, decreased cellularity); chimp hypotension dose-limiting at 0.12 ug/kg
“Following daily administration of the surrogate for 4 or 13 weeks in mice, lymphoid tissues were the target organs of toxicity with decreased spleen weights and decreased cellularity or germinal center development observed in the lymph nodes, Peyer’s patches, and spleen.”
