Abstract: BACKGROUND: To effectively incorporate in vitro data into regulatory use, confidence must be established in the quantitative extrapolation of in vitro activity to relevant end points in animals or humans. OBJECTIVE: Our goal was to evaluate and optimize in vitro to in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) approaches using in vitro estrogen receptor (ER) activity to predict estrogenic effects measured in rodent uterotrophic studies. METHODS: We evaluated three pharmacokinetic (PK) models with varying complexities to extrapolate in vitro to in vivo dosimetry for a group of 29 ER agonists, using data from validated in vitro [U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) ToxCast? ER model] and in vivo (uterotrophic) methods. In vitro activity values were adjusted using mass-balance equations to estimate intracellular exposure via an enrichment factor (EF), and steady-state model calculations were adjusted using fraction of unbound chemical in the plasma (fu) to approximate bioavailability. Accuracy of each model-adjustment combination was assessed by comparing model predictions with lowest effect levels (LELs) from guideline uterotrophic studies. RESULTS: We found little difference in model predictive performance based on complexity or route-specific modifications. Simple adjustments, applied to account for in vitro intracellular exposure (EF) or chemical bioavailability (fu), resulted in significant improvements in the predictive performance of all models. CONCLUSION: Computational IVIVE approaches accurately estimate chemical exposure levels that elicit positive responses in the rodent uterotrophic bioassay. The simplest model had the best overall performance for predicting both oral (PPK_EF) and injection (PPK_fu) LELs from guideline uterotrophic studies, is freely available, and can be parameterized entirely using freely available in silico tools.
