Administration / exposure

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Duration of exposure:
The topical dose was administered to the clipped dorsal surface of the animals followed by covering the dosed area with a non-occlusive protective cell. After 24 h of exposure, the cell was removed and the dosed area wiped with olive oil.
Doses:
40mg (8mg/cm2 skin surface). Coverage is comparable to dermal administration at 2g/kg body weight
No. of animals per group:
5 female rats
Control animals:
no
Details on study design:
Five rats were administered a single topical dose of 40mg of SHF-61 containing 3.7uCi of 3H-SHF-61 (specific activity of 92.5 nCi/mg).

The topical dose was administered to the clipped dorsal surface of the animals followed by covering the dosed area with a non-occlusive protective cell. After 24 h of exposure, the cell was removed and the dosed area wiped with olive oil.

Animals were placed in individual metabolism cages. Urine and feces were collected at 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours post-dose. At the 96 hour time point, the animals were sacrificed by exposure to 100% CO2. The following tissues/organs were removed and analyzed for radioactivity: blood, small and large intestines, liver, kidney, stomach, retroperitoneal fat, treated (dose site) and untreated skin. The residual carcass was lyophilized prior to homogenization and measurement of 3H-activity. Radioactivity in the urine, urine wash and cage wash was counted. Fecal and most tissue samples were homogenized, oxidized and counted for radioactivity.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

Five female Sprague Dawley rats were administered a single topical dose of 40mg SHF-61 (8mg/cm2 skin surface) fortified with 3H-labeled SHF-61 to determine the percutaneous absorption. The topical dose was administered to the clipped dorsal surface of the animals and covered with a non-occlusive protective cell.  After 24 h of exposure, the cell was removed and the dosed area wiped with olive oil.  Urine and feces were collected at 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours post-dose.  At the 96 hour time point, the animals were sacrificed and the amount of absorbed SHF-61 and its metabolites in the body was determined.  Nearly 18% (0.06 mg/cm2/hr) of the applied dose was absorbed in the rats with 2.9, 4.9% and 9.8% of the applied activity present in the treated skin, tissues and excreta, respectively.  The latter consists of 7.8% in the feces and 2.0% in the urine.  Low levels of activity were found in the liver (0.5%), untreated skin (0.8%) and remaining tissues (0.8%).
