Abstract
⺠We developed a simple pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model of melengestrol acetate (MGA). ⺠Rat or mouse PBPK model of MGA was scaled to human model to predict in humans. ⺠MGA elimination in humans was estimated to be slow compared with those in rodents. ⺠Concentrations of MGA were evaluated by chimeric mice with humanized liver. ⺠The simplified human PBPK modeling is useful for risk evaluation of MGA.
