Abstract

|
This study aimed to obtain necessary toxicological data using experimental and computational methods for the calculation of a common permitted daily exposure (PDE) which can be relevant for nicotinic acid and its esters and nicotinamide according to European Medicines Agency Guideline on setting health-based exposure limits. PDE calculation is mainly based on critical toxicological endpoints. During this procedure, critical toxicological endpoints data of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) may not be able to find satisfactorily. Hence, using toxicological data for another API that has a similar chemical structure can be a useful way. In this study, toxicological endpoints of nicotinic acid and its esters and nicotinamide were evaluated. Then, the data gaps in the toxicological endpoints were filledusing the read-across approach. Based on the current existing data, nicotinic acid and its esters and also nicotinamide are not genotoxic and do not have skin sensitization potential. These compounds do not present a concern for carcinogenicity and developmental/reproductive toxicity. Based on these critical endpoints and available experimental data, the final PDE of 10 mg/day was calculated for all category members. Our study showed the utility of the read-across for PDE calculation of APIs with experimental toxicological data gap.
