Revised
TabIel
At
the
SOT
Program
Review
Technical
Consultation
meeting
last
month,
EPA
discussed
how
the
findings
from
Tier
I
and
Tier
I
Program
Review
testing
modify
some
of
the
original
thinking
about
some
of
the
Tier
II
activities.
These
changes
impact
the
footnotes
in
the
Tier
II
section
of
Table
1
in
the
ECA
agreement.
We
agreed
to
incorporate
these
changes
into
the
protocol
developmenl
aspect
for
TIER
II.

I
would
appreciate
your
comments
on
the
attached
revised
Table
1
for
Tier
II
activities.
Note:
The
testing
and
reporting
mix
stays
the
same
but
the
footnotes
for
the
route
dosimetry
extrapolations
are
changed
to
reflect
new
thinking
as
a
result
of
Tier
I
study
findings.
Give
me
a
call
at
202­
564­
8167
if
you
have
questions
or
need
to
discuss
further.

Quantitative
route­
to­
route
extrapolation
documented
graphically
and
with
tabular
data.
Different
dose
metrics
to
be
evaluated
initially
at
the
protocol
development
stage
and
then
in
the
context
of
the
final
results.
Dose
metrics
to
consider
include
parent
compound
in
venous
blood
or
brain,
as
maximum
concentration
(
Cmax)
or
the
area
under
the
time­
concentration
curve
(
AUC),
and
metabolite,
as
amount
metabolized
in
the
liver
or
brain
per
day
normalized
to
organ
weight.
Should
mode
of
action
data
be
available
to
support
a
dose
metric
other
than
Cmax
or
AUC
for
parent
compound
(
e.
g.
time
above
a
critical
concentration
as
is
sometimes
used
in
pharmaceutical
applications)
that
dose
metric
will
be
derived
and
added
to
the
overall
evaluation.
The
choice
of
the
final
dose
metric
should
be
supported
with
mode­
ofaction
information
and
adiscussion
of
the
most
health
protective.
