Slide 2: FDA's Predictive Toxicology Roadmap
FDA’s Predictive Toxicology Roadmap Toxicology Issues that Need Addressing for FDA-Regulated Products: - “Determining comparative toxicity of tobacco products, which are inherently toxic” Evaluation of new or increased ingredients in the Substantial Equivalence (SE) pathway Promising New Techn
Slide 3: Risk Characterization
Risk Characterization Integration of hazard assessment, dose-response data and exposure assessment to determine likelihood that an identified chemical is going to introduce risk into the exposed population Identification of acceptable daily exposures - Literature search (e.g., IRIS, NTP, ECHA, O
Slide 4: TTC Overview: Two Categories
TTC Overview: Two Categories Non-genotoxic chemicals - TTCs based on frequency distributions (5th percentile) of NOEL or NOAEL divided by an uncertainty factor of 100 (Kroes et al., 2000, 2004) - Cramer Classes: Class I: 1800 µg/day (low toxicity) Class II: 540 µg/day (medium toxicity) Class
Slide 5: Risk Characterization – Application of an Inhalation TTC
Risk Characterization – Application of an Inhalation TTC TTC is a risk assessment tool based on the principle of establishing a human exposure threshold below which there is a very low probability of appreciable risk to human health (Kroes et al., 2000 and 2004) 1.5 µg/day is used across regulat
Slide 6: Application in SE Pathway (Cigarettes)
Application in SE Pathway (Cigarettes) Product-specific question related to ingredient added to the New Product Applied conservative exposure assumptions (i.e., 40 cigarettes/day) to several ingredients that were present in the New Product and would result in potential exposure at levels below 1
Slide 7: Application in PMTA Pathway
Application in PMTA Pathway Draft guidance for Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS) products: - Provide adequate information in the PMTA to characterize the constituents in the e-liquid and identify characteristics of the e-liquid that may impact the constituents in the aerosol - Provide st
Slide 8: Summary
Summary In the absence of tobacco-specific risk assessment guidance, acceptable approaches from other FDA Centers should be considered for tobacco products A TTC of 1.5 µg/day is acceptable for mutagenic drug impurities - all routes of exposure (ICH M7, 2014) and for evaluation of extractable/le
