`SUMMARY
`
`(1)
`
`large
`Toxicity data from small animals (mouse, rat, and hamster),
`animals (dog and monkey), and humans were gathered, placed on a rea-
`sonably similar basis, and compared quantitatively. Each animal species
`and all species combined were used to predict the toxic doses in man (based
`on mg/In“ of surface area). Two models were assumed for the relationship
`between the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in man and the approximate I
`LD10 in each animal system:
`(dose in man) = (dose in animal system 1')
`
`and
`(2)
`, 6)
`.
`.
`.
`(dose in man) = A; X (dose in animal system i), (i = 1 ,
`where A. is the fraction of the dose in animals used to predict the dose in
`humans (assumed different for each animal system, ie, 73 = 1 ,
`.
`.
`.
`, 6). It
`was found that when animal systems other than the rat were used the very
`simple model (1) was remarkably good for predicting the MTD in humans,
`though model (2) leads to slightly better predictions. Based on model (2),
`the animal systems are ranked in order of predictive ability: rhesus mon-
`key, Swiss mouse, rat, BDF, mouse, dog, and hamster. The best estimate
`of the MTD in man is made by weighting the estimates from the various
`animal species. Dose on an mg/m‘ basis is approximately related to dose
`on an mg/kg basis by the formula
`. ,7)
`.
`.
`(«i = 1 ,
`(dose in mg/m’) = (km). >< (dose in mg/kg),
`where (lam). is the appropriate factor for converting doses from mg/kg to
`mg/m” surface area for each species. When the (lc'm)i factors are known,
`equally good predictions of MTD in man can be made by either dose unit.
`on an mg/m” basis, the MTD in man is about the same as that in each
`animal species. On an mg/kg basis, the MTD in man is about ‘/12 the LD10
`in mice, 1/J the LD10 in hamsters, 1/, the LD10 in rats, M, the MTD in
`rhesus monkeys, and 1/2 the MTD in dogs. In each case the ratio is the
`(km) factor in the animal system to that in man. Hence relationships
`among the Various animal species and man are somewhat simpler and
`more direct on an mg/m” basis. These results support the conclusion that
`the experimental test systems used to evaluate the toxicities of potential
`anticancer drugs correlate remarkably closely with the results in man.

`
`The biologic aspect of a
`drug development
`program to
`discover
`compounds
`effective ,-
`against any clinical disease is generally an ex-
`ercise in comparative pharamacology. In the
`typical program, compounds are screened in
`small animals against some easily produced an(l
`reproduced pathologic condition. A close rela-
`tionship must exist between the screening sys-
`tem and the ultimate clinical condition for the
`program to have the potential for success. Thus
`examination of this relationship is highly im-
`portant. In cancer chemotherapy the similari-
`ties and differences have often been considered
`among transplantable tumors, virus-induced
`tumors, carcinogen-induced tumors, and spon-
`taneous tumors iii animals, and between animal
`tumors and the various cancers and leukemias
`in man. However the similarities and differ-
`ences between mice, rats, hamsters, dogs, mon-
`keys, and man have been considered less often
`in terms of quantitative and qualitative aspects
`of the toxic effects of drugs. The consistency
`of the action of therapeutic agents among vari-
`ous mammalian species is a keystone of most
`drug development programs, yet only rarely has
`this been studied in a quantitative manner.
`Classically comparative pharmacology and
`physiology have been concerned with differences
`which permit analytic studies of specific bio-
`logic systems, and these studies have yielded
`valuable information. But it is equally impor-
`tant to consider the much more frequent simi-
`larities; we have tried to do this in the present
`analysis.
`
`Of all the toxicologic end points, lethal toxic-
`ity is the easiest to measure with reasonable
`precision. Therefore we considered the lethal
`dose of certain cancer chemotherapeutic agents
`in various laboratory animals. For man the
`end point was the maximum tolerated dose
`(MTD).
`llopefully two benefits might-accrue
`from this evaluation: (1) If there is reasonable
`consistency in the reactions of various mam-
`malian species,
`the toxicologic component Of
`cancer chemotherapy screening will be shown
`to have a rational basis. (2) If such consistency
`is found,
`the problems of introducing highly
`toxic therapeutic agents into man might be
`2_ppr()aChCd more confidently. If major incon-
`sistencies are discovered frequently, this would
`highlight the deficiencies in present screening
`systems and raise serious questions about the
`utility of these schemes for safe introduction of
`new drugs into man.

`percent of patients);
`(b) MTD for a variable sched-
`ule, calculated from the daily dose and median period
`to toxic eilects i'e<1uii‘iiig cessation of drug; the judg-
`ment of many clinical
`investigators was necessarily
`accepted in making this estimation.
`Because of the nature of the available data,
`the toxicologic end points in the various ani-
`mal species were related to the MTD in man.
`‘ Although it was necessary to assume that the
`dosages resulted in the same percentage of tox-
`I
`icity in each species. the results do not depend,
`‘
`in a major way, on this assumption. For the
`drugs in this study,
`the dose-toxicity curves
`were relatively steep so that if the true per-
`centage of
`toxicity for a given ‘dosage was,
`say, between 5% and 15%,
`the actual dosage
`used would not differ veiy much from the dos-
`age that should have been used.
`It was necessary to use toxicologic data ob-
`tained by various routes of drug administra-
`tion, ie, intraperitoneal (ip) for small animals,
`oral for small animals and man, and intra-
`venous (iv) for large animals and man. In mice
`and rats the LD10’s obtained by the ip and 1V
`routes are usually comparable.
`Another variable for which some reasonable
`correction must be made is the dosage schedule
`including the total dose. We assumed that the
`toxicity of anticancer agents is cumulative.
`, G1-iswom at 31,
`(3)
`reported that when the
`LD10’s in BDF. mice of 70 agents, including
`the major classes of anticancer agents, were
`compared for two schedules, ‘Id 1"7 days and
`qd 1—11 days,“ the mean rati0_(<ld 1-7 d<1yS/
`qd 1—11 days) was 1.56. This is very close to
`that which might be expected from direct cumu-
`lative drug toxicity (11 days/7 days = 1-57)-
`Pinkel
`(2) and other investigators pointed
`out that the usual closes of certain drugs in
`various animal species and man were compara-
`ble when the dose was measured on the basis
`of mg/m“ of surface area. Consequently most
`of the results are presented in mg/In’. However
`since mg/kg is a commonly used unit of drug
`dosage, some results are also presented in this
`flqd = drug given once daily for as many days as
`indicated.

`RESULTS
`The first step in aiialyziiig the data was to
`correct the daily dosage schedules for man and
`for animals, when necessary,
`to a uniform
`schedule of qd 1-5 days. Thus if an LD10 for
`mice, or MTD for man, was obtained by a
`schedule of qd 1-10 days, we calculated that
`the LD10 (or MTD) for a schedule of (pi 1-5
`days was twice that value. The next step was to
`convert doses (LD10‘s or MTD’s) from mg/kg;
`to mg/ni’ This was accomplished by the ap-
`proximate formula

`The basic data used in this study are given
`in table 1. Doses of 18 drugs" are presented
`in mg/kg and mg/m’ for the 6 species, along
`with source information and other pertinent
`data. An average dose (LD10 or MTD) of each
`drug was calculated from the multiple studies,
`if done, on each species. The average doses for
`the 6 animal systems and man are given in
`mg/kg in table 2, and in mg/m’ in table 3.
`Charts 1-6 indicate the closeness of the rela-
`tionship between the logarithm of the LD10, or
`MTD, in the various animal systems and in man
`when the dose is measured in mg/m’. Chart 7
`indicates the close relationship between 12
`times the LD10 in the BDF, mouse and the
`MTD in man when the dose is measured in
`mg/kg. The ratio of the (km) factors for an
`average man and a mouse is 37/3 = 12,3, It
`will be shown later that relationships between
`systems on an mg/kg basis are the same as
`those on an mg/m‘ basis if the ratio of (km)
`factors is considered.
`To examine further the relationship of dos-
`age, in mg/m’, between the animal systems and
`man, consider the following: For each animal
`system and man, there is a dose-toxicity curve.
`The basic data for each drug consist of esti-
`mates of a single point, the approximate LD10,

`tioned) in the sample of drugs. The statistical
`considerations in fitting these models are given
`in Appendix III.
`Model (1) is the simplest possible model; no
`parameters need to be estimated, Thus the
`doses in table 3 for each animal system are the
`predicted values of the dose in man and charts
`1-6 indicate that these predictions are reason-
`ably good. The standard deviations, on a log
`scale, of a predicted value of log (dose in man)
`were calculated for each animal system. The
`systems are ranked in order of predictive
`ability in the top half of table 4: monkey, Swiss
`mice, BDF. mouse, dog, rat, and hamster. A
`predicted value of the dose in man has been
`calculated by weighting the estimates from
`each animal system (see Appendix III) and
`the results are given in the last column of
`table 3. The standard deviation of a predicted
`value of log (dose in man) is 0.299, with multi-
`pliers of 0.50 and 2.0 for lower and upper
`standard deviation limits respectively. Thus the
`weighted estimate based on all systems is bet-
`ter than the estimate from any single system.
`Assuming model (2), the estimates of A. and
`Ar : 2 SE are given in the bottom half of table
`4. Note that the approximate 95% confidence
`limits for the multiplying factor, /1., include 1
`for all animals systems except the rat. Thus for
`the other animal systems it is reasonable to
`accept the very simple model (1) as providing
`an adequate prediction of the dose in man.
`However when all systems are combined to ob-
`tain an overall estimate of A; (see Appendix
`III), the approximate 95% confidence limits do
`not include 1. Also, note from the bottom half
`of table 4 that the standard deviation of a pre-
`dicted value of log (dose in man) is 0.275, al-
`most a 10% reduction from that of model (1).
`Therefore model
`(2)
`is preferred for fitting
`these data; however for future studies in which
`more precise estimates of LD10 are available,
`it may be that model (1) will be adequate.
`Using model (2), we can rank the animal
`systems in order of their predictive ability by
`considering the deviations of observed from
`predicted values of dose in man. These standard
`deviations are given in table 4. Thus the order
`is monkey, Swiss mouse, rat, BDF. mouse, dog,
`and hamster. The best predictions with model
`(2) are obtained by weighting the estimates of
`the dose in man from all 6 animal systems (the
`method is explained in Appendix III). The pre-
`dictions for the drugs in this study are given

`
`toxicity curves for man and for each animal
`system differ depending on whether an antime-
`tabolite or an alkylating agent was given‘! Us-
`ually the animal species, except the rat and
`monkey, underpredict the doses of antimetabo-
`lites and overpi-edict
`the doses of alkylating
`agents for man. By a statistical test (t test),
`there was some suggestion (P<0.10) that in
`Swiss mice and BDF, mice the predictions of
`dosage in man were lower for antimctabolites
`than for alkylating agents. There was no evi-
`dence of a difference in the other species. Only
`4 aiitimetabolites and 8 alkylating agents were
`tested in all animal species. Consequently fur-
`ther study is needed to determine whether the
`difference between dose—toxicity curves really
`depends on the type of agent.
`There is some value in comparing the rela-
`tionships found on an mg/m‘ basis with what
`would have been found on an mg/kg‘ basis.
`Some indication of this has already been given
`in chart '7 which shows that there is a close
`relationship between 12 times the LD10 in the
`BDF. mouse and the MTD in man. Since the
`relationship between mg/kg and mg/m“ used is
`(Inc/m‘) = (km)«>< (ms:/kg).

`where (7cm)u and (lamp. refer to the (ma) fac-
`tor in the particular animal system and man
`respectively, and A1 is exactly the same as
`stated before. Hence it should be clear that dose
`in mar. can be predicted equally well either on
`'1 mg‘/kg basis or on an mg/m“ basis. Thus by
`ing the ma factors and model (1), the dose
`man (mg/kg) is approximately 1/,2 the dose
`i mice,
`1A, the dose in hamsters, 1/7 the dose in
`rats, 1/3 the dose in rhesus monkeys, and 1/2 the
`dose in dogs.

`
`The availability of much more extensive
`toxicity data from the Cancer Chemotherapy
`National Service Center program, from certain
`other published sources, and from our own labo-
`ratories seemed to make this present analysis
`timely. Also we believe it is important to use
`more definitive biologic end points of toxicity_
`Th_15 ilfléllysis and study of data on toxicity to
`animals and humans of several types of anti-
`cancer agents (tables 1, 3, and 5)
`lead us to
`conclude that the toxic dose of an agent
`is
`similar among species when the dose is meas-
`ured on the basis of surface area. The skin sur-
`face area was used here though it is unlikely
`that the skin is he target area of action of any
`particular drug. More likely the skin surface is
`more or less proportional
`to the true target
`surface.
`
`that mammalian species are
`To the exteii
`broadly similar and have corresponding organs
`and tissues, it is true that any surface area will
`increase approximately with the tWo.thi1‘dg
`power of weigit
`(38). Thus the two—thii'ds
`power of body weight would have been a con-
`venient unit of surface area to use and the re-
`sults of the analysis would have been almost
`the same (see A pendix II).
`Pinkel
`(2) suggested that “cancer chemo-
`tlierapists consider the applicability of body
`surface area as a criterion of drug dosages in
`their laboratory and clinical studies.” We sug-
`gest that a uni proportional to body surface
`area is sufficient and an appropriate unit is
`(weight) “".
`We have been conccriied only with compari-
`sons among species, not within species, and
`with adult animals, not

`ditional data, both clinical and experimental, in
`a form similar to that in table 1.
`The present study has emphasized the quan-
`titative aspects of toxicity of anticancer drugs
`to animals and man. Regarding the prediction
`of the qualitative eifects of anticancer drugs
`in man from laboratory animal studies, Owens
`(1) suggested:
`Predictive value
`Good
`Questionable
`None
`
`P-rccliaical toxicity .s‘f'l(.ll’l:ZS
`Bone marrow, gastrointestinal tract,
`liver, kidney
`Nervous system,
`including periph-
`eral neuropathy, extraoeular pal-
`sies, and CNS toxicity
`Skin and appendages, including skin
`rashes, dermatitis, and alopecia
`
`Of the 18 agents in this study, 17 produced
`limiting toxicity to the bone marrow (marrow
`depression: MD) and to the gastrointestinal
`(GI) tract. If the mg/ni’ doses in man that are
`predicted by using the weighted combined esti-
`mate are compared to the observed doses, then
`the largest ratio of predicted dose/observed
`dose is 3, for thioTEPA. Consequently it would
`be reasonable to study preclinical toxic effects
`in the mouse, rat, dog, monkey, and hamster,
`to estimate the MTD (mg/in‘) in man, and to
`start clinical cancer chemotherapy trials at
`about one-third
`the
`predicted
`dose. This
`would have been a safe procedure for all 18
`drugs mentioned. Owens (1) suggested that it
`might be reasonable “to begin a human trial at
`one-tenth of the maximum tolerated dose in the
`most susceptible animal" (on an mg/kg basis).
`Since the most susceptible animal will ordi-
`narily be the dog or rhesus monkey, Owens’
`rule of thumb on an mg/m“ basis becomes:
`begin trial in man at about one-third the close
`for monkeys or one-fifth the dose for dogs.
`Thus there is reasonable agreement between
`the two recommendations. However if the ani-
`
`inal data are not placed on the mg/mi
`before using Owens‘ rule of thumb, any ."m_1IS
