Conceptual depiction of the margin of internal exposure (MOIE) approach based on comparison of internal dose metrics. The individual assessment factor (AF) of 4 that should cover interspecies differences in toxicokinetics (TK) can be left out in the MOIE approach as these differences are taking into account using the PBK approach (animal PBK model and human PBK model). aPBK = animal PBK model; hPBK = human PBK model. SED = Systemic exposure dose; SPOD = Systemic Point of Departure.
