4 StructuresStructures Tacrolimus Pimecrolimus

5 General Toxicology Potential immune target organs of toxicity identified in chronic rodent and nonrodent toxicology studies include thymus, lymph nodes and spleen Nonclinical toxicology study results indicate both compounds are classic immunosuppressive agents Potential immune target organs of toxicity identified in chronic rodent and nonrodent toxicology studies include thymus, lymph nodes and spleen Nonclinical toxicology study results indicate both compounds are classic immunosuppressive agents

6 Genetic Toxicology An appropriate battery of in vitro and in vivo genotoxicity tests were conducted for tacrolimus and pimecrolimus Tacrolimus and pimecrolimus were non-genotoxic An appropriate battery of in vitro and in vivo genotoxicity tests were conducted for tacrolimus and pimecrolimus Tacrolimus and pimecrolimus were non-genotoxic

11 Lymphoma Mechanism Results of the rodent carcinogenicity studies indicate that systemic immunosuppression leads to lymphoma formation It is not clear if the mechanism of lymphoma formation is the same for rodents and humans Results of the rodent carcinogenicity studies indicate that systemic immunosuppression leads to lymphoma formation It is not clear if the mechanism of lymphoma formation is the same for rodents and humans

12 Oral monkey toxicology study Oral doses of 0, 15, 45 and 120 mg/kg/day pimecrolimus administered for 39 weeks High dose discontinued after 19 weeks due to mortality Immunosuppressive related lymphoproliferative disorder (IRLD) noted in all dose groups – IRLD frequently progresses to lymphoma Oral doses of 0, 15, 45 and 120 mg/kg/day pimecrolimus administered for 39 weeks High dose discontinued after 19 weeks due to mortality Immunosuppressive related lymphoproliferative disorder (IRLD) noted in all dose groups – IRLD frequently progresses to lymphoma

14 Oral monkey toxicology study IRLD was associated with lymphocryptovirus (Epstein Barr related virus) IRLD exhibited a dose dependent expression Opportunistic infections were noted in some animals in all dose groups Three of the high dose monkeys with IRLD had concurrent leukemia IRLD was associated with lymphocryptovirus (Epstein Barr related virus) IRLD exhibited a dose dependent expression Opportunistic infections were noted in some animals in all dose groups Three of the high dose monkeys with IRLD had concurrent leukemia

15 Oral monkey toxicology study A NOEL for IRLD was not established in this study Low dose is 31X MRHD based on AUC Mechanism of lymphoma formation appears to be the same for monkeys and humans It is unknown if the mechanism of leukemia formation is the same for monkeys and humans A NOEL for IRLD was not established in this study Low dose is 31X MRHD based on AUC Mechanism of lymphoma formation appears to be the same for monkeys and humans It is unknown if the mechanism of leukemia formation is the same for monkeys and humans

16 Oral monkey toxicology study Results from this study confirm that adequate systemic exposure to pimecrolimus could elicit lymphoma formation via a similar mechanism that has been established for tacrolimus in humans

17 SummarySummary Protopic (tacrolimus) ointment and Elidel (pimecrolimus) cream are topical immunosuppressants Neither tacrolimus or pimecrolimus exhibited a genotoxic signal Tumorigenicity exhibited by tacrolimus and pimecrolimus appears to be mediated by a non-genotoxic mechanism (i.e., immunosuppression) Protopic (tacrolimus) ointment and Elidel (pimecrolimus) cream are topical immunosuppressants Neither tacrolimus or pimecrolimus exhibited a genotoxic signal Tumorigenicity exhibited by tacrolimus and pimecrolimus appears to be mediated by a non-genotoxic mechanism (i.e., immunosuppression)

18 SummarySummary A lymphoma signal was evident in a dermal mouse carcinogenicity study conducted with tacrolimus ointment A lymphoma signal was evident in an oral mouse carcinogenicity study conducted with pimecrolimus A lymphoma signal was evident in the 13 week dermal mouse study conducted with pimecrolimus dissolved in ethanol A lymphoma signal was evident in a dermal mouse carcinogenicity study conducted with tacrolimus ointment A lymphoma signal was evident in an oral mouse carcinogenicity study conducted with pimecrolimus A lymphoma signal was evident in the 13 week dermal mouse study conducted with pimecrolimus dissolved in ethanol

19 SummarySummary Other tumor signals included: –Benign thymoma noted in the oral rat carcinogenicity study conducted with pimecrolimus –Follicular cell adenoma of the thyroid noted in the dermal rat carcinogenicity study conducted with pimecrolimus cream Other tumor signals included: –Benign thymoma noted in the oral rat carcinogenicity study conducted with pimecrolimus –Follicular cell adenoma of the thyroid noted in the dermal rat carcinogenicity study conducted with pimecrolimus cream
