Toxicological Data of Rats and Rabbits: Sub-chronic Testing of recombinant HPV Vaccine through Oral and Intranasal routes
2021
Abstract Current article illustrates the data of body weight, biochemical, haematological profile, and organ weights of rats and rabbits administered with recombinant human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine, along with genotoxicity effect. The data was collected from nonclinical safety/toxicity and immune response evaluations of recombinant Salmonella typhi expressing the HPV 16 and 18 L1 proteins as vaccine. The intended clinical route of vaccine administration is through oral route, whereas it is established fact that attenuated S. typhi could not colonize in laboratory animals. In view of this it is challenging to undertake the nonclinical safety/toxicity evaluations following the regulatory guidelines. Hence sub chronic safety/toxicity testing was carried out in rat and rabbits by administration of HPV vaccine through oral (intended clinical route) and innovative intranasal routes. The prophylactic dose derived from adult human clinical dose (2 × 109CFU/70 kg) was administered to SD rats (PD: 0.18 × 109CFU/kg) and New Zealand White (NZW) rabbits (PD: 0.09 × 109CFU/kg) through oral and intranasal routes. Similarly, average dose (AD:5xPD) was administered to rats (AD:0.9 × 109CFU/kg) and rabbits (AD: 0.45 × 109CFU/kg) through intranasal route only. The repeated doses were administered on 3rd and 5th days of post-exposure of 1st dose through specified routes and test compound effects in relation with time of exposure was assessed by euthanizing animals and data collection at different time points i.e. 15th (25% of animals), 29th (25% of animals) and 93rd days (50% of animals) of post-exposure of 1st dose. The retro-orbital plexus blood was collected before euthanizing animals to unveil the biochemical and haematological profile. The data on genotoxicity effect of test compound, if any, was obtained by assessing the bone-marrow micronucleus assay. The immune response and allergenicity in terms of specific IgG and IgE levels against HPV 16 and 18 L1 proteins were determined in mice. The raw data of various parameters collected at different time points were compiled and computed according to the groups. The haematological profile and organ weights data can be used as reference data for SD rats and NZW rabbits for future studies.
