1 State of Science for Respiratory Sensitization Dose-Response Models for the OEL-Derivation of Chemicals Jürgen Pauluhn Global Drug Discovery, Bayer HealthCare, Bayer Pharma AG, Wuppertal, Germany Hannover Medical School, Hannover, Germany ILSI/HESI-Workshop on Assessment of Respiratory Sensitization 8-9 May 1, Alexandria, VA 1
2 Outline Hypotheses, mechanisms & etiopathological relationship of induction and elicitation Test approaches & protocols Respiratory irritation vs. sensitization vs. allergy Metrics & dose Derivation of OELs for irritant asthmagens such as TDI-vapor & MDI-aerosol
3 Hypothesis: What do we intend to model and how do we define Sensitization? Skin and/or inhalation exposure C x t Inhalation exposure Lymph node priming & Th-cell polarization Systemic sensitization and induction of status asthmaticus are interconcatenated but independent processes! Occupational Asthma 3
4 What can be quantified and controlled? Skin induction quantifiable: NO Lung induction quantifiable-twa: YES Excursions: NO C x t Inhalation exposure quantifiable: YES aggravation Lymph node priming & Th-cell polarization Expression of cytokines irritation vs. allergy: NO Systemic sensitization Compartmentalized expression of immunoglobulines, e.g. IgE/G specific or total: NO Occupational Asthma Integrating phenotypes of OA: YES

C-/- C-/+ Topical-low Topical-high 7
8 Situation more complex for reactive Vapors: C vs. C x t - Relationships Reactive vapor Neurogenic inflammation Reactive aerosol Nasal Reflexes Bronchial Airways the site of asthma manifestation Reactive aerosols: Site of deposition is aerosol size-dependent, the lung dose and POD is Cxt-dependent. Reactive vapors: The degree of penetration into lower airways is C-dependent. C determines the depth of penetration into the lung & Cxt the site-specific dose. 8
9 Respiratory Tract Irritation: Similarities to Skin? Definitely NOT! MDI Aerosol - Rats Threshold for acute alveolar irritation Normal range: 1±% 5 Regulatory stumbling blocks: RT = ET + T + P [US: separated, EU: combined] Aerosols & vapors dosimetrically different.

19 Conceptual Approach for a Respiratory Sensitization / Elicitation Protocol for TDI-Vapor Prevailing experimental evidence suggests that Respiratory Sensitization is a multi-step process depending on two independent processes: - Induction of a state of increased susceptibility to future encounters. This process is potentially reversible (apart from memory effect ). - The induction of this process requires irritant (inflammatory) encounters at high doses. This can most suitably be achieved by skin exposure(s). - This state is evidenced by the determination of pro-inflammatory factors which do not necessarily distinguish the irritant and allergic etiopathologies. 19
20 Conceptual Approach for a Respiratory Sensitization / Elicitation Protocol for TDI-Vapor - Continuation Hence any Respiratory Sensitization can only be revealed and quantified by Respiratory Elicitation in animals predisposed to asthma - Repeated inhalation elicitation encounters above the lung irritant threshold dose (Cxt) are needed for progression & aggravation. - The induction of this process requires multiple highly rationalized irritant (mildly inflammatory) encounters at defined Cxt s to produce an asthmatic rat. - The elicitation-threshold in asthmatic rats is irritation (Cxt)- dependent.

MDI: The acute irritant threshold, which is.5 mg/m³ x h for MDI (18 mg/m³ x min), corresponds to ~-times an elicitation threshold of 9 mg/m³ x min. These apparent differences in potency are related to dosimetric differences (vapor vs. aerosol)

27 Summary The major prejudice of Respiratory Sensitization is believed to depend on inhalation sensitization. It is likely more an inhalation priming of already predisposed/sensitized subjects. The protocols devised duplicate the key hallmarks of human asthma, including the structure & dosing protocols used in human inhalation bronchial challenges. All endpoints measured are quantifiable in terms of dose and integrated effect. For MDI-aerosol and TDI-vapor the dosimetrically-adjusted irritant dose was remarkably close to the effective human challenge dose. To be effective, elicitation doses must be above the irritant threshold Cxt to prime the respiratory tract for Respiratory Sensitization. 7
28 Conclusion Respiratory sensitization requires recurrent irritant inhalation exposures to induce asthma. Both irritation and elicitation of respiratory sensitization are clearly threshold dose- (and NOT concentration-) dependent. Protection from irritation (conventional basis of NOAEL) protects also from sensitizing the respiratory tract. OELs and DNELs can be derived using standard inhalation bioassays. Proof-of-principle studies may require a slightly higher degree of sophistication. 8
