Is Methoxy PEG-3 Dehydrocholesteryl Succinate vegan?

Methoxy PEG-3 Dehydrocholesteryl Succinate is produced by reacting 7-dehydrocholesterol with succinic anhydride and subsequently with methoxy PEG-3. 7-Dehydrocholesterol can be sourced from animal (e.g. lanolin) or plant/synthetic origins, so the origin of this ingredient is uncertain.

An ingredient is considered vegan if it contains no animal-derived components at any point in its production.
