CLOSED ABSTRACT
The level of FM-3422 was determined in the serum and livers
of monkeys from the IRDC subacute study 137-088.
Furthermore
total fluorine content was determined in selected serum samples and the metabolism of FM-3422 characterized by
FINMR.

Reference 137-088 by IRDC was a 90 day subacute Rhesus monkey toxicity study of FM-3422. The original study was set at the following dosage
30, 100, 300, 1000 mg/kg/day. The study was revised with levels: dosage levels of 10, 30, 100, 300 mg/kg/day. It appears (see Table below) that the dosage levels were lowered again prior to the study, The serum and livers were each individually submitted for analysis. Each group contained 4 monkeys, 2 male and 2 female as follows:

The analysis of the serum for FM-3422 indicated that this compound was present at a very low concentration. Total fluoride analysis indicated the presence of a significant level of fluoride. Therefore the serum of 7472M was prepared for F/NMR analysis.
The NMR spectra indicated (Richard Newmark) the presence of.FC-95 with no other significant fluorine peak noted. A very high branched content was observed (80% branched/20% linear). The branched/linear ratio of FM-3422 used in the feeding study was found to be 40% branched/60% linear. Perhaps the branched isomer is retained to a greater extent than the linear.
The fact that a high level of FC-95 was found in the serum and essentially no FM-3422, indicates that FM-3422 is metabolized to the sulfonic acid. Furthermore, the study would indicate that FM-3422 is cleared from the body rather rapidly, that is before it is completely converted to FC-95 since the monkey tolerates FM-3422 at concentrations approximately 10 times greater than FC-95; this suggests that FC-95 builds up slowly with time.

The high values of FM-3422 found in the liver when compared to the low level in the blood may indicate conversion of F14-3422 to the
sulfonic acid (see above F/NMR data on serum) in the liver. The data shows that the female accumulates and/or retains FM-3422 at a level 2 to 3 times higher than the rrele. In addition, the.only animal to die during the study was a female, perhaps again suggesting a greater sensitivity of the female to this compound.
