Benchmark Response (BMR) Values for In Vivo Mutagenicity Endpoints
ABSTRACT The benchmark dose (BMD) approach constitutes the most effective and pragmatic strategy for the derivation of a point of departure (PoD) for comparative potency analysis, risk assessment, and regulatory decision‐making. There is considerable controversy regarding the most appropriate benchmark response (BMR) for genotoxicity endpoints.

ABSTRACT N‐Nitrosamines (NAs) are probable human carcinogens and were detected as impurities in pharmaceuticals, which led to a concern for human health. NAs require metabolic activation before they become mutagenic, and not all NAs are mutagenic since their reactivity is related to their structure.
