- The test material was administered to 24 Sprague Dawley rats. A first group of 4 male and 4 female rats received a single oral dose of 5 mg/kg bw of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878. A second group of 4 male and 4 female rats received a single oral dose of 1000 mg/kg bw of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878. Finally a third group of 4 male and 4 female rats received a multiple oral dose of IR5878: once daily for 14 consecutive days with cold IR5878 followed by one dose of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878 on day 15 (target dose 5 mg/kg bw).
- Details on dosing and sampling:
- Following dose administration of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878 urine and faeces were collected at various timepoints until sacrifice. At post mortem the gastrointestinal tract and carcass were retained. All samples from each group of animal were analysed for total radioactive residues (TRR). Urine were analysed directly by liquid scintillation counting (LSC). All other sample matrices were analysed for TRR by combustion followed by LSC.
Following dose administration of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878 whole blood samples were collected at various timepoints, by venesection of a tail vein. Samples from each group of animal were analysed for total radioactive residues (TRR) by combustion followed by LSC.
At Tmax, 1-2 hours following dose administration of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878, the animals were killed. At necroscopy were removed bone, brain, brown fat, gastrointestinal tract, heart, liver, lung, muscle, residual carcass, spleen, subcutaneous fat and the whole blood. All samples from each group of animal were analysed for total radioactive residues (TRR) by combustion followed by LSC.
Following dose administration of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878 bile, urine and faeces were collected at various timepoints until sacrifice. At post mortem the gastrointestinal tract and carcass were retained. All samples from each group of animal were analysed for total radioactive residues (TRR). Bile and urine were analysed directly by liquid scintillation counting (LSC).
Results and discussion
Toxicokinetic / pharmacokinetic studies
- Details on absorption:
- Based on the overall results obtained from the 10 phases experiments, it can be concluded that [14C-U-phenyl]-IR5878 orally administered at 5 mg/kg bw is absorbed very rapidly (peak blood concentration 1 h) and quite extensively (70-80%). Indeed, over 90% of the administered radioactivity was recovered in the excreta within 48 hours post-treatment. At 72 hours after IR5878 administration, faeces accounted for the highest proportion of the dose (66.38% and 52.93% in male and female, respectively). However, in bile-cannulated rats, about 36-38% of the dose was detected in bile over 48 hours, indicating that the biliary escretion was an important route of elimination In the same animals faeces samples contained about 17% of the administered dose by 72 hours post dose, and this presumably represented unabsorbed dose. The urine of bile duct cannulated animals contained mean values of 36-40% of dose at 72 hours post dose, consistently with results obtained in similarly dosed non-cannulated animals (30-38% of the administered dose). IR5878 was widely distributed to the different organs: however, the tissue containing the highest concentration at Tmax was the gastrointestinal tract; the only other tissues to contain a concentration greater than the one associated with whole blood were the liver and the kidney. There was no marked difference between sexes. By 72 hours post dose concentrations were low in the blood (approaching the limit of quantification), as well as in the carcass (< 0.5%), indicating a rapid clearance of IR5878.

- Details on excretion:
- Excretion kinetics (Phases 1, 2, 3)
During all three excretion phases, the main route of elimination of total radioactivity was via the faeces for both male and female animals. The excretion of total radioactivity in urine and faeces was very rapid, with the majority of the radioactivity being excreted within ca 12-24 hours of dose administration. There were little differences in the excretion pattern of radioactivity between the male and female animals.

Findings
Excretion kinetics (Phases 1, 2, 3)
During all three excretion phases, the main route of elimination of total radioactivity wasviathe faeces for both male and female animals. The excretion of total radioactivity in urine and faeces was very rapid, with the majority of the radioactivity being excreted within ca 12-24 hours of dose administration. There were little differences in the excretion pattern of radioactivity between the male and female animals.
Single dose administrationmg/kg bw (Phase 1)
The overall mean recovery of radioactivity at 72 hours after administration of 5 mg/kg bw of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878 was 99.59% and 94.45% respectively in the male and female animals. A mean of 66.38% and 52.93% of the dose was recovered, respectively in the male and female animals, in the faeces. Excretion in the urine accounted for 30.34% and 37.93% of the dose, respectively in the male and female animals. Small amounts of radioactivity (<0.5%) were detected in the gastrointestinal tract and carcass. The excretion of total radioactivity in urine and faeces was very rapid, with the majority of the radioactivity being excreted withinca12 hours (urine) andca24 hours (faeces) after dose administration. The excretion pattern of radioactivity was similar in male and female animals.

Single dose administration at 1000 mg/kg bw (Phase 2)
The overall mean recovery of radioactivity at 72 hours after administration of 1000 mg/kg bw of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878 was 91.85% and 91.84% respectively in the male and female animals. A mean of 72.89% and 66.27% of the dose was recovered, respectively in the male and female animals, in the faeces. Excretion in the urine accounted for 17.65% and 23.28% of the dose, respectively in the male and female animals. Only small amounts of radioactivity were detected in the gastrointestinal tract and carcass (<0.3%). The excretion of total radioactivity in urine and faeces was very rapid, with the majority of the radioactivity (about 85%) being excreted withinca24 hours after dose administration. The excretion pattern of radioactivity was similar in male and female animals.

Multiple dose administrationmg/kg bw (Phase 3)
The recovery of total radioactivity following multiple oral administrations were similar to those obtained following a single dose administration of 5 mg/kg bw of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878. By the end of 72 hours collection period, the overall mean recovery in male and female animals was 96.19% and 96.91% respectively. About 50-62% of the dose was recovered in the faeces. Excretion in the urine accounted for 31-40% of the dose. Only small amounts of radioactivity were detected in gastrointestinal tract and carcass (<0.3%). The excretion of total radioactivity in urine and faeces was very rapid, with the majority of the radioactivity being excreted withinca12 hours (urine) andca24 hours (faeces) after dose administration.

Blood kinetics (Phases 4, 5, 6)
The excretion pattern of radioactivity between the male and female animals for all three blood kinetics phases was similar. The sacrifice times selected for Phases 7, 8 and 9 were 1 hour, 2 hours and 1 hour post dose, respectively
Single dose administrationmg/kg bw (Phase 4)
Following a single oral administration of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878mg/kg bw,minutes post dose mean concentrations of total radioactivity in whole blood for male and female animals were 1.717 and 2.303 µg equiv.g-1, respectively. These values increased slightly up to 1 hour post dose (Tmax) when the highest concentration was reached (Cmax), with mean values of 2.328 and 2.411 µg equiv.g-1for the male and femaleanimals, respectively. Mean concentrations then declined in a biphasic manner with concentrations decreasing rapidly to 0.361 µg equiv.g-1(males) and 0.332 µg equiv.g-1(females)hours post dose. Thereafter, the rate of decline slowed, with low mean concentrations of radioactivity in the whole blood observed at 72 hours post dose (0.01 µg equiv.g-1for both males and females).
The half-life (T1/2) was 10.89 hours (males) andhours (females) and AUC (area under the blood concentration vs. time curve) wash µg.g-1(males) and 12.89 h µg.g-1(females).
The results are summarised in Tables 5.1-4 and 5.1-5.

Single dose administration at 1000 mg/kg bw (Phase 5)
Following a single oral administration of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878 at 1000 mg/kg bw,minutes post dose mean concentrations of total radioactivity measured in whole blood wereand 25.31 µg equiv.g-1for male and female animals, respectively. Concentrations increased rapidly until a peak (Tmax) was reachedhours post dose for the female animals and 4 hours post dose for the male animals, with mean values (Cmax) of 285.09 and 305.02 µg equiv.g-1, respectively. Following each peak, concentrations decreased rapidly until 24 hours post dose and then continued to decrease at a slower rate. At the end of the collection period (72 hours post dose) low levels of radioactivity remained in the whole blood (equiv.g-1andµg equiv.g-1for males and females, respectively).
The half-life (T1/2) was 10.88 hours (males) and 11.87 hours (females) and AUC (area under the blood concentration vs. time curve) was 5595.59 h µg.g-1(males) and 4299.67 h µg.g-1(females). The slower rate of clearance of radioactivity from the whole blood paralled the slightly longer Tmax; in addition the AUC values (about 300-400 fold higher compared to the low level dosed animals) indicate a saturation of the clearance pathways in the whole blood.
The results are summarised in Tables 5.1-6 and 5.1-7.

Multiple dose administrationmg/kg bw (Phase 6)
Following multiple oral administrations of non-radiolabelled IR5878 (14 consecutive days) and a single oral dose administration on day 15 of 5 mg/kg bw of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878,minutes post dose mean concentrations of total radioactivity in whole blood for male and female animals were 2.700 and 4.788 µg equiv.g-1, respectively. In both male and female animals the mean peak concentration was reachedmin post final dose (Tmax); the levels remained almost constant up to 1 hour in male and 24 minutes in female. Mean levels of radioactivity then decreased rapidly to 0.583 and 0.487 µg equiv.g-1, until 4 hours post final dose, in male and female, respectively. The decline continued thereafter at a slower rate. The mean concentration of total radioactivity was below the limit of detection for all animals at 72 hours post final dose.
The half-life (T1/2) washours (males) and 10.85 hours (females) and AUC (area under the blood concentration vs. time curve) wash µg.g-1(males) and 13.78 h µg.g-1(females). These results perfectly overlap with those obtained after a single dose oral administration, indicating that at this low dose, no saturation of any process, neither induction of the specific pathways in the test item biotrasformation occurred.
The results are summarised in Tables 5.1-8 and 5.1-9.

Tissue distribution (Phases 7, 8, 9)
For all three phases the distribution of total radioactivity was similar for male and female animals, with the highest mean concentration at Tmaxfound in the gastrointestinal tract. However, at 72 hours post dose, the carcass, including all the organs and the tissues, contained amounts of radioactivity < 0.70% of dose, showing an almost complete clearance.
Single dose administrationmg/kg bw (Phase 7)
Following dose administrationmg/kg bw, the mean concentration of total radioactivity in the gastrointestinal tract at Tmaxwas 27.41 (61.81% dose) and 29.48 µg equiv.g-1(53.82% dose) for male and female animals, respectively. Lower concentrations were found in the liver (meanandµg equiv.g-1, respectively) which accounted for 11.28% and 8.77% of the dose, respectively, and kidneys (meanandµg equiv.g-1, respectively, corresponding to 1.72% and 0.65%). All other tissues contained mean concentrations < 3 µg equiv.g-1and accounted for < 0.2% of the dose for both male and female animals, with the exception of carcass, containing 0.68 µg equiv.g-1(males) andµg equiv.g-1(females) of total radioactivity, corresponding to 10.89% (males) and 8.00% (females) of the administered dose. The total recovery of radioactivity was about 86% and 70% of the administered dose, in male and female, respectively.
The results are summarised in Tables 5.1-10 and 5.1-11.

Single dose administration at 1000 mg/kg bw (Phase 8)
Following dose administration at 1000 mg/kg bw, the mean concentration of total radioactivity in the gastrointestinal tract was 5861.40 (70.17% dose) and 5707.40 µg equiv.g-1(62.18% dose) for male and female animals, respectively. Mean concentrations were about 300 µg equiv.g-1(females) for whole blood, 260-400 µg equiv.g-1for the kidneys, and 260-280 µg equiv.g-1for the liver. The mean recoveries of radioactivity from liver and kidneys were 1.3% and <0.4% of the administered dose, respectively. Residues in the remaining tissues were lower, with mean values ranging between 27.80 to 161.37 µg equiv.g-1(≤0.15% dose). Carcass was an exception, containing 128.37 and 97.84 µg equiv.g-1for male and female animals, respectively, accounting for 9.97% and 7.74% of the administered dose, respectively. The total recovery of radioactivity was about 83% and 72% of the administered dose, in male and female, respectively.

Multiple dose administrationmg/kg bw (Phase 9)
Following an oral administration of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878 after multiple oral administrations of non-radiolabelled IR5878 for 14 consecutive days, the mean concentration of total radioactivity in the gastrointestinal tract was 27.695 µg equiv.g-1(males) and 23.114 µg equiv.g-1(females) which accounted for 51.76% (males) and 41.27% (females) of dose, respectively. Liver and kidneys from male contained 12.049 µg equiv.g-1(10.32% dose) and 12.218 µg equiv.g-1(2.03% dose), respectively; in female 11.997 µg equiv.g-1(9.93% dose) and 3.714 µg equiv.g-1(0.67% dose) were detected in liver and kidney, respectively. Residues in the remaining tissues were lower, accounting fortoµg equiv.g-1for both sexes (£0.18% to£0.29% dose). Carcass was an exception, with mean concentration values of 0.756 and 0.641 µg equiv.g-1for male and female animals, respectively, corresponding to 12.00% and 9.79% of the administered dose. The total recovery of radioactivity was about 76% and 62% of the administered dose in male and female, respectively.
The results are summarised in Tables 5.1-14 and 5.1-15.

Biliary elimination (Phase 10)
72 hours after a single administration of 5 mg/kg bw [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878, the overall mean recovery of radioactivity was 99.40% and 93.79% in male and female, respectively. Elimination of radioactivity was mainlyviaurine (39.64% and 36.58% of the administered dose in male and female, respectively) and bile (38.37% and 36.36% of the administered dose in male and female), for a mean recovery of 78.01% and 72.94% in male and female, respectively. These values indicate that most of the radioactivity recovered in faeces came from entero-hepatic circulation. Excretion in faeces accounted for about 17% of the dose in both sexes, wich summed up with the bile radioactivity content gave rise to a recovery representing about 53-55% of the administered dose. The excretion of total radioactivity in urine, bile and faeces was very rapid, with the majority of the radioactivity being excreted withinca12 hours of dose administration. These values were consistent with the recovery of radioactivity in faeces and urine observed during excretion kinetic study phases. At 72 hours levels of radioactivity in the gastrointestinal tract and carcass were <0.2% of the dose. No differences between sexes were identified.
The results are summarised in Table 5.1-16.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Based on the overall results obtained from the 10 phases experiments, it can be concluded that [14C-U-phenyl]-IR5878 orally administered at 5 mg/kg bw is absorbed very rapidly (peak blood concentration 1 h) and quite extensively (70-80%). Indeed, over 90% of the administered radioactivity was recovered in the excreta within 48 hours post-treatment. At 72 hours after IR5878 administration, faeces accounted for the highest proportion of the dose (66.38% and 52.93% in male and female, respectively). However, in bile-cannulated rats, about 36-38% of the dose was detected in bile over 48 hours, indicating that the biliary escretion was an important route of elimination In the same animals faeces samples contained about 17% of the administered dose by 72 hours post dose, and this presumably represented unabsorbed dose. The urine of bile duct cannulated animals contained mean values of 36-40% of dose at 72 hours post dose, consistently with results obtained in similarly dosed non-cannulated animals (30-38% of the administered dose). IR5878 was widely distributed to the different organs: however, the tissue containing the highest concentration at Tmax was the gastrointestinal tract; the only other tissues to contain a concentration greater than the one associated with whole blood were the liver and the kidney. There was no marked difference between sexes. By 72 hours post dose concentrations were low in the blood (approaching the limit of quantification), as well as in the carcass (< 0.5%), indicating a rapid clearance of IR5878.
At the higher dose level (1000 mg/kg bw) the excretion pattern following single oral administration was consistent with the single low dose level data and again there was no marked sex difference. Over 90% of the administered dose was recovered by 48 hours post dose with the majority of the administered radioactivity being recovered in faeces with mean recoveries of 72.89% (males) and 66.27% (females) of dose at 72 hours post dose. Urine contained mean values of 17.65% and 23.28% of the dose at 72 hours post dose in male and female, respectively. The slower rate of clearance of radioactivity from the whole blood paralled the slightly longer Tmax when compared to the low dose results; in addition the AUC values, about 300-400 fold higher compared to the low level oral dosed animals, indicate a saturation of the clearance pathways in the whole blood but no saturation for the absorption processes (Cmax about 200-fold higher than the one attained after a single low dose administration). However, at 72 hours post dose, the carcass, including all the organs and the tissues, contained amounts of radioactivity < 0.70% of dose, showing an almost complete clearance.
The excretion of radioactivity after the repeated treatment with low doses (5 mg/kg bw) of IR5878 for 15 days was not different from the pattern shown after a single oral dose administration. Again the greater proportion of the administered dose was excreted in faeces (62.76% and 50.73% in male and female) at 72 hours post dose. Urine contained mean values of 31.52% and 40.69% of dose at 72 hours post dose in male and female, respectively. The pharmacokinetics parameters (Cmax, Tmax, AUC, T1/2) obtained in the single and the repeated dose experiments also overlap, as well as the pattern of distribution and recovery of radioactivity in the carcass, 72 h after the last treatment. These results indicated that IR5878 has no potential for bioaccumulation neither the ability to induce specific pathways of its own biotransformation.
- Executive summary:
IR5878 was administered to Sprague Dawley rats. Four groups rats received a single oral dose of 5 mg/kg bw of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878 (excretion kinetic, blood kinetic, tissue distribution and biliary elimination evaluation). Further three groups of rats received a single oral dose of 1000 mg/kg bw of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878 (excretion kinetic, blood kinetic and tissue distribution evaluation). Finally three groups of rats received a multiple oral dose of IR5878: once daily for 14 consecutive days with cold IR5878 followed by one dose of [14C-U-phenyl]IR5878 on day 15 (target dose 5 mg/kg bw) (excretion kinetic, blood kinetic and tissue distribution evaluation).
Based on the overall results obtained from the 10 phases experiments, it can be concluded that [14C-U-phenyl]-IR5878 orally administeredmg/kg bw is absorbed very rapidly (peak blood concentration 1 h) and quite extensively (70-80%). Indeed, over 90% of the administered radioactivity was recovered in the excreta within 48 hours post-treatment. At 72 hours after IR5878 administration, faeces accounted for the highest proportion of the dose (66.38% and 52.93% in male and female, respectively). However, in bile-cannulated rats, about 36-38% of the dose was detected in bile over 48 hours, indicating that the biliary escretion was an important route of elimination In the same animals faeces samples contained about 17% of the administered dose by 72 hours post dose, and this presumably represented unabsorbed dose.

However, at 72 hours post dose, the carcass, including all the organs and the tissues, contained amounts of radioactivity < 0.70% of dose, showing an almost complete clearance.
The excretion of radioactivity after the repeated treatment with low doses (5 mg/kg bw) of IR5878 for 15 days was not different from the pattern shown after a single oral dose administration. Again the greater proportion of the administered dose was excreted in faeces (62.76% and 50.73% in male and female) at 72 hours post dose. Urine contained mean values of 31.52% and 40.69% of dose at 72 hours post dose in male and female, respectively. The pharmacokinetics parameters (Cmax, Tmax, AUC, T1/2) obtained in the single and the repeated dose experiments also overlap, as well as the pattern of distribution and recovery of radioactivity in the carcass, 72 h after the last treatment. These results indicated that IR5878 has no potential for bioaccumulation neither the ability to induce specific pathways of its own biotransformation.
