A conjugate of asparaginase and monomethoxypolyethylene glycol was evaluated in acute, subacute, and subchronic toxicologic studies in mice, rats, and dogs. The drug induced low-grade toxicosis. The appearance and behavior of rats and dogs were not affected by the treatment. Only large doses produced inactivity, loss of appetite, and loss of weight. The LD50 could not be established. The drug retarded slightly body weight gains in dogs and female rats and produced mild anemia in 30% of the female rats. Urinalysis and blood chemical determinations in rats and dogs were generally not affected by the treatment. Monomethoxypolyethylene glycol-asparaginase was detectable in the plasma of mice 13 days after IV, intraperitoneal, or IM administration, and in dogs for 3 to 4 weeks.
