PBPK modeling to evaluate maximum tolerated doses: A case study with 3-chloroallyl alcohol.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: A physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model for 3-chloroallyl alcohol (3-CAA) was developed and used to evaluate the design of assays for the in vivo genotoxicity of 3-CAA. Methods: Model development was supported by read across from a published PBPK model for ethanol. Read across was motivated by the expectation that 3-CAA, which like ethanol is a primary alcohol, is metabolized largely by hepatic alcohol dehydrogenases. The PBPK model was used to evaluate how two metrics of tissue dosimetry, maximum blood concentration (Cmax; mg/L) and area under the curve (AUC; mg-hr/L) vary with dose of 3-CAA and with dose route (oral gavage, drinking water). Results: The model predicted that oral gavage results in a 6-fold higher Cmax than the same do
