Abstract Aims: To examine the existing literature to determine the degree to which percutaneous absorption data obtained using the excised human skin model match those obtained from living man. Methods: The scientific literature was reviewed to collect data on compounds whose percutaneous absorption through human skin had been measured under both in vitro and in vivo conditions. The in vitro-in vivo (IVIV) correlation was evaluated by computing the in vitro/in vivo ratio using total absorption (percent of applied dose) as the metric for comparison. Results: A total of 92 data sets were collected from 30 published studies. The average IVIV ratio across all values was 1.6, though for any single data set there could be a nearly 20-fold difference between the in vitro and in vivo values. In 85% of the cases, however, the difference was less than 3-fold. The correlation was significantly improved when data were excluded from studies in which the protocols for both studies were not fully harmonized. For harmonized data sets the average IVIV ratio was 0.96 and there was a less than 2-fold difference between the in vitro and in vivo results for any one compound, with IVIV ratios ranging from 0.58 to 1.28. The dominant factors leading to exclusion of data were the use of skin from different anatomical sites and vehicles of differing composition. Conclusions: Percutaneous absorption data obtained from the excised human skin model closely approximate those obtained from living man when the two study protocols are appropriately matched.
