How OELs & ADEs Develop Over the Life Cycle of a Drug
What is involved with the synthesis of a drug?

Isolated steps of the process and the drug substance can lead to occupational exposure and GMP cross-contamination issues
OELs and ADEs
Term Definition Use
Occupational
Exposure
Limit (OEL)
An airborne concentration
not expected to result in an
adverse effect if exposed for
an 8-hour workday, 40-hour
workweek for a working
lifetime.
Worker
Safety
Acceptable
Daily
Exposure
(ADE)
A dose that is unlikely to
cause an adverse effect if an
individual is exposed, by any
route, at or below this dose
every day for a lifetime.
Effectively synonymous with
Permitted Daily Exposure.
GMPs
Background – OEL / ADE Development is part of the
overall risk assessment process
Does potential exposure
exceed the ADE / OEL?
Reduce exposure potential
Assess potential exposure
Hazard Assessment - OEL, ADE
Risk Assessment
Pharmaceutical development, filtering to the
one good molecule

Drug data and phases of development
• Early Development
– Mechanism of Action
– Cell-based assays
– In vitro pharmacology
– Short-term non-GLP toxicology
– Genotoxicity
• Phase 1 IND package
– 28 day toxicity study in 2 species
– Safety Pharmacology
– Genotoxicity
– Receptor screen
– Nonclinical PD and PK data
– Human dose estimation
Drug data and phases of development cont…
• Phase 2
– Repeat-dose data for a longer duration in rodents and non-
rodents
– Clinical data
• PD, PK, Safety, Efficacy
– Worker Safety Package (Variable)
• Eye Irritation
• Skin Irritation
• Skin Sensitization
Drug data and phases of development cont…
• Phase 3
– Repro / Dev Tox
– Carcinogenicity
– Worker safety testing
– More clinical data
• Phase 3 with more patients and better understanding of
sensitive populations
• Registration and Post-marketing updates
– Phase 4 data
– Post-marketing surveillance
Data on starting materials, intermediates,
reagents
• Early Research / Development (≤ Phase 1)
– Intermediates are constantly changing
– Deadlines really fast
– Usually no data, or very limited (possibly screening)
• Late Development (≥ Phase 2 - Registration)
– Commercial route being defined
– Data generation variable
• No regulatory drivers for data generation except for
mutagenicity (ICH M7)
• Testing dependent on corporate procedures and to support
GHS Safety Data Sheet labeling
• Post-Registration
– Dependent on country product registrations (e.g., REACH)
and scale (e.g. > 1 ton)
ADE / OEL Development Over the Lifecycle
• As the drug develops more work is performed on the
ADE / OEL
– With limited resources the number of molecules can be
overwhelming in early research
– Scale is small, so exposure is limited
– More data is generated
• Revise ADE / OEL
• Less uncertainty in number
• Therefore the ADE / OEL is revised over the lifecycle of
a drug
– Defaults applied in early research
– More conservative estimates early in development
– The ADE / OEL can raise as more is known about the
compound
Integrating the ADE and OEL assessments
• It is important to be well integrated into Research
Pipeline
– Approvals for research programs and compounds
– IND submissions
– IB updates
– Toxicology testing
– Updates to Core Data Sheets
• Stakeholders need to be informed of ADEs / OELs
– Industrial Hygiene, Environmental Health and Safety
– Quality
– Project teams
– Manufacturing
– CMOs
Research, prior to Phase 1
• OELs
– Drugs – typically defaulted, flags for highly hazardous
compounds
– Intermediates, starting materials, etc. – typically defaulted,
default can be different than the drug
• ADEs
– non-GMP, and lots not supporting clinical material do not
need ADEs
Phase 1 – 2, OELs – Control Banding Example
Occupational
Exposure Band
Category
Description Exposure limits
(µg/m3)
1 Relative non-toxic and non-potent and produces no
systemic effects
1,000 – 5,000
2 Low pharmacologic potency and generally have
little or no systemic toxicity
100 – 1,000
3 Short-term effects, that are generally not life
threatening and overexposures can be managed
medically.
1 – 100
4 Produce life-threating effects, with symptoms that
may be incapacitating and require immediate
medical intervention.
< 1
5 Extremely potent and/or toxic, life threatening Case-by-case
Adapted from Naumann et al., AIHA Journal. 1996; 57:33-42
Phase 1-2 Defaulted ADEs
Category ADE
Compounds that are not likely to
be potent, highly toxic or
carcinogenic
100 µg/day
Compounds that may be potent or
highly toxic
10 µg/day
Compounds that are mutagenic or
may be carcinogenic
1 µg/day
Adapted from Dolan et al., 2005. A 10-fold higher limit may be justified for material just used in Phase 1 (Bercu et al., 2013)
Phase 2 – Market: OEL / ADE Derivation
• Identify the critical effect
– Most sensitive effect relevant to human exposure
– Clinically relevant pharmacology is considered adverse
– Some effects may be observed in animals but not in
humans
• Derive the Point of Departure
– No-observed adverse effect level (NOAEL)
– Lowest-observed adverse effect level (LOAEL)
– Benchmark dose (BMD)
• Determine the adjustment factor
– Chemical specific factors may be used in lieu of data
Similarities / differences between OELs and
ADEs
• Similarities
– Similar equation
– Similar POD and adjustment factors
• Differences
– Populations – OELs for healthy workers, ADEs for patients
– Route of administration – OELs for inhalation, ADEs for all
routes including parenteral
– Body Weight – 50 kg for ADEs to cover a spectrum of
patients and OELs 70 kg based on worker weights
– OEL assumes an 8-hour day, can be adjusted for shorter
term tasks
– ADE can be adjusted based on route, patient population,
duration

Does ADE = OEL x 10? Maybe, but be mindful of the differences and details of the OEL calculation.
Post-market: OEL / ADE development
• Monitor development of a drug and see how it impacts
the OEL / ADE
– Don’t recreate a new OEL / ADE every time you look at it
• A company may inherit existing drugs
– Look for existing Safety Data Sheets from innovator
companies
– Look at data in the literature, package label, or regulatory
review documents (i.e., Summary Basis for Approval)
ADEs / OELs for intermediates, starting
materials etc.
• Intermediates, starting materials, etc. mostly have less
data than for drugs
• OELs – Control banding or default approaches is
typically what is done for intermediates / starting
materials
• ADEs – Defaulting (i.e., Dolan et al., 2005 or 10 ppm) is
typically done for intermediates / starting materials
• Intermediates, starting materials, etc. may get a good
data package if they are produced in large quantities
– High volume registrations for China, Korea, etc.
– Use data for OELs and ADEs
Cross-functional review committee
• Technical and Stakeholders
– Occupational Toxicologist
– Occupational Physician
– EHS
– Manufacturing
– CMO reps
– Project - Team Lead, Toxicologist, Clinical (case by case),
drug metabolism (case by case)
• Documentation
– Controlled documents
– Show scientific rationale and derivation of ADEs / OELs
– Should be made available to CMOs
