Adequate systemic safety margins at pivotal NOAELs; dermal NOAEL generally 20% gel vs 15% clinical
“For the NOAEL determined in the pivitol toxicology studies with sofpironium bromide, there are adequate safety margins when systemic exposure of sofpironium bromide is compared between animals and humans topically treated with sofpironium bromide gel, 15%. The NOAEL of sofpironium bromide gel in animal dermal toxicology studies are generally 20% which is higher when compared to the 15% concentration in clinical studies.”

NOAEL / key findings
Mainly administration-site findings; anticholinergic effects in rats at ≥1.5 mg/kg/day sc
“The major treatment-related effects observed in repeat-dose studies were findings at the test article administration sites. Pharmacologic anticholinergic effects were observed in rats with subchronic or chronic subcutaneous administration at doses of ≥1.5 mg/kg/day.”
