Nonclinical Toxicology

Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility

In an oral carcinogenicity study in Sprague-Dawley rats, oral doses of 30, 100, and 300 mg/kg/day crisaborole were administered to rats once daily. A drug-related increased incidence of benign granular cell tumors in the uterus with cervix or vagina (combined) was noted in 300 mg/kg/day crisaborole treated female rats (2 times the MRHD on an AUC comparison basis). The clinical relevance of this finding is unknown.

In a dermal carcinogenicity study in CD-1 mice, topical doses of 2%, 5% and 7% crisaborole ointment were administered once daily. No drug-related neoplastic findings were noted at topical doses up to 7% crisaborole ointment (2 times the MRHD on an AUC comparison basis).

Crisaborole revealed no evidence of mutagenic or clastogenic potential based on the results of two in vitro genotoxicity tests (Ames assay and human lymphocyte chromosomal aberration assay) and one in vivo genotoxicity test (rat micronucleus assay).

No effects on fertility were observed in male or female rats that were administered oral doses up to 600 mg/kg/day crisaborole (18 times the MRHD on an AUC comparison basis) prior to and during early pregnancy.
