A total dose of 100μg as a single dose or divided doses in any subject including patients.
The requirements of pharmaco-toxicological studies are minimum, depending upon the amount or duration of exposure, e.g., a single-dose toxicity study in rodents.
For the conventional phase I, a full program of pharmaco-toxicological studies under the GLP regulation is required

Q
Is it possible to evaluate early a drug’s pharmacodynamics from analyses of blood or urine specimens? Often NO
Can we directly assess pathological events in situ in the tissue (e.g., inflammation, fibrosis, hypoxia, oxidative stress)? Potentially Yes
How can we evaluate a drug’s pharmacodynamics as early as possible?
