Why that species
Not stated in public reviews
The reviews list the species but not why. For small molecules, ICH M3(R2) expects one rodent and one non-rodent species, chosen with in vitro metabolism, protein binding and exposure data compared with human.
“In vitro metabolic and plasma protein binding data for animals and humans and systemic exposure data (ICH S3A, Ref. 7) in the species used for repeated-dose toxicity studies generally should be evaluated before initiating human clinical trials.”

“The 13-week studies were conducted with the citrate salt form which is the ibrexafungerp form in the current clinical formulation and these studies included 14-day recovery periods.”

Species: DART
Rat (fertility, EFD, pre/postnatal) and rabbit (EFD)
“In contrast to the results of the embryo-fetal study in rabbits, ibrexafungerp was not associated with fetal malformations in a rat embryo-fetal study. Also, ibrexafungerp did not inhibit male or female fertility in a fertility study in rats or produce adverse effects on the survival, growth, behavior, or reproductive ability of first-generation offspring in a pre-postnatal study in rats.”

Species: carcinogenicity
Not conducted (limited duration of use for VVC)
“Carcinogenicity studies were not performed for ibrexafungerp due to the limited duration of its intended use for the treatment of VVC.”
