- Liraglutide precursor is predicted to be readily biodegradable based on the results in the ready biodegradability studies of the source substances (S1, S2, S3).

• Liraglutide precursor and the source substances are composed of polypeptide containing amino acids
• The ready biodegradability prediction is supported by the fact that the amino acids in Liraglutide precursor and the source substances are readily biodegradable.

Description of key information
The biodegradation of Liraglutide precursor is assumed to follow the same pattern as that of the source substances because of the high degree of structural similarity:
• Liraglutide precursor and the source substances belong to the same chemical categories: human insulins, polypeptides and proteins

• The ready biodegradability prediction is supported by the fact that the amino acids in Liraglutide precursor and the source substances are readily biodegradable.
Liraglutide precursor is predicted to be readily biodegradable based on the results in the ready biodegradability studies of the source substances (S1, S2, S3).
The results from the ready biodegradability studies with the source substances revealed a biodegradability of 98% (S1), 103% (S2) and 83% (S3).
