- Vehicle:
- other: 1% aqueous hydroxypropylmethylcellulose
- Details on oral exposure:
- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS:
All animals were dosed at a constant volume of 10ml/kg bodyweight. Individual doses were adjusted weekly according to bodyweight.
Method and frequency of test article formulation: On day 1 duplicate sets of formulations were prepared by 2 slightly different methods. Known amounts of test article were measured out by both weight and volume. These were then added to known volumes of vehicle whilst being mixed with a Silverson mixer. Both sets of formulations were analysed and subsequently, from day 2, formulations were prepared on a volume/volume basis.
Formulations were prepared freshly each day.
DIET PREPARATION
- Rate of preparation of diet (frequency): each day, max. 2 hours before use
VEHICLE
- Justification for use and choice of vehicle (if other than water): test material not sufficiently soluble in water, 1% Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose is used as emulsifier/"drug carrier" to improve solubilisation of the test material.
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 1% in aqueous solution - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- Samples of each formulation (including the control formulation) prepared on days 1 and 27, were analysed for test article. Method: An aliquot of dosing formulation was diluted with acetone and the resultant solution was analysed by gas chromatography. Detection was by FID and the external standard method was used for calibration and quantitation. Actual concentrations were between 94-130% of theoretical concentrations. Therefore, variance bettween nominal and actual concentration is acceptable.
- Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 4 weeks
- Frequency of treatment:
- daily for 4 weeks

- Details on study design:
- - Dose selection rationale:
A preliminary range-finding study was performed to establish suitable dose level (up to 5000 mg/kg/day) of the test material following repeated oral administration to rats of the same strain and source, and to provide information for selection of dose levels for use in the 28 day oral toxicity phase. Four groups, each of 10 rats (five males and five females) were dosed with 0, 200, 1000 & 5000 mg/kg bw of ST 01 C 88. The test material was administered daily, for 7 consecutive days, by gavage. Control animals were treated in an identical manner with 1% aqueous hydroxypropylmethylcellulose alone . Animals were observed daily, bodyweights were recorded on days 1 and 8, and food consumption was recorded daily. The observations preformed were the following:
1. All animals given 5000mg/kg/day were either killed in extremis on day 2 or killed for humane reasons on day 3. There were no deaths at lower dose levels.
2. clinical observations: ataxia, lateral recumbency, prostration, lethargy, shallow respiration, piloerection, generalised deterioration in coat condition and fur staining. They were observed in animals given 1000 or 5000 mg/kg/day and were more prevalent and more severe at the higher dose level.
There were no treatment related clinical signs at 200 mg/kg/day.
3. Bodyweight: Terminal bodyweights of surviving animals were comparable to controls.
4. Food intake: The group mean total food intake of males given 1000mg/kg/day was slightly (10%) lower than the control value. Food intake of remaining survivors was similar to that of the controls.
5. Macroscopic observation/Necropsy: There were no treatment related macroscopic post mortem findings in animals killed after 2, 3 or 7 days of treatment. There were no organ weight data that could be directly compared with controls for animals given 5000mg/kg/day. There were no statistically significant treatment related changes in absolute or relative organ weights in males or females given 200 or 1000 mg/kg/day compared to controls.
In function of these observations, proposed dose levels for the subsequent 28 day oral (gavage) toxicity study in the rat are 0, 25, 125 and 625 mg/kg/day.

OTHER: - Sacrifice and pathology:
- GROSS PATHOLOGY: Yes
Necropsies: All animals were weighed and then examined externally. A macroscopic examination was then performed by opening the cranial, thoracic and visceral cavities and observing the appearance of the tissues in situ. Abnormalities were recorded with details of location, colour, shape and size.
Organ weight: The following organs from all animals were weighed after trimming of fat and other contiguous tissue: adrenals, ovaries, thymus, kidneys, spleen, liver, testes.
Contralateral organs were weighed separately but combined weights only have been reported.
HISTOPATHOLOGY: Yes
The specified tissues (adrenals, liver, heart, spleen, kidneys from all control and high dose animals were dehydrated, wax embedded, cut at a nominal thickness of 5 microns, stained with haematoxylin and eosin and examined microscopically. Additional histopathology of the testes and bone (femur) were provided on a requirement from a regulatory authority. - Statistics:
- Haematological and organ weight data were analysed by analysis of variance and, if a between groups difference significant at the 5% level occurred, by pairwise t-tests between the control and treatment groups.
Blood chemistry data were analysed by Kruskal-Wallis testing and if a between groups difference significant at the 5% level occurred, significant differences between the control group and the treatment group were determined using the Wilcoxon rank sum test.

- CLINICAL SIGNS AND MORTALITY:
No deaths were recorded. Typical treatment related clinical signs were salivation after dosing and staining or wetting of the fur, noted in both sexes dosed at 625 mg/kg/day. One female given 625 mg/kg/day was found prostrate on one day towards the end of the study.
HEAMATOLOGY:
The mean red blood cell values (Hb, RBC, rCV) of male groups given 125 or 625mg/kg/day and of females given 625 mg/kg/day tended to be marginally (up to 6%) lower than control values. Although some of these differences were statistically significant, since they represent only minor variations within the expected ranges, they are considered to be of dubious biological significance.
The mean total leucocyte counts of treated female groups were statistically significantly lower, in an apparently dose related manner, than the control value. However, there were no shifts in the leucocyte differential count and all total leucocyte counts (individual and mean) were within the expected range. Accordingly, the significance of this observation is doubtful.
The variations in prothrombin time and partial thrompoblastin time noted are considered to be fortuitous, since individual and mean values were within expected ranges and since there were no definite trends with dose away from controls.
CLINICAL CHEMISTRY:
The mean plasma triglyceride levels of all male treated groups and of females given 125 or 625 mg/kg/day were moderately (up to about 50%) raised compared to control values. Most of the differences were statistically significant. However, all values were within the expected range and the differences did not show a linear response with dose.
Various other blood chemistry parameters, with values falling within the range for historical controls, showed statistically significant intergroup differences. Some of these apparent differences did not represent a trend with dose away from the controls (raised plasma calcium and lowered plasma chloride in females given 125 mg/kg/day only), others did not show the expected response, for diagnostic significance (lowered AST and bilirubin observed at 625 and also 125 mg/kg/day) and others failed both the above criteria for toxicological significance (lowered BUN-females given 25 mg/kg/day only, lowered alkaline phosphatase-males given 125 mg/kg/day only).
URINALYSIS:
The urine specimens of most males dosed at 625 mg/kg/day contained trace, small or moderate amounts of ketones. In contrast, with the exception of animal 16M (25 mg/kg/day) which had a trace response for ketones, ketones were not found in the specimens of other animals. Possibly, this response arises from breakdown products of the test substance.
ORGAN WEIGHTS:
The mean absolute and relative liver weights of both sexes dosed at 625 mg/kg/day were slightly (up to about 15%) higher than control valnes, these differences being statistically significant. However, the mean absolute and relative liver weights of males alone given 25 mg/kg/day were marginally (about 7%) but statistically significantly lower than the control value.
The mean absolute and relative adrenal weights of females given 625 mg/kg/day were moderately (20 and 23% respectively) and statistically significantly higher than control values.
GROSS PATHOLOGY:
In the testes only one case of bilateral and one of unilateral hypoplasia were seen in the highest dose group (625 mg/kg/day); all the controls were normal. However, such a low incidence of this common condition is unlikely to be of toxicological significance, particularly as one case was unilateral. The histopathological entities observed were recognised as those that occur commonly in this strain of rat maintained in this laboratory and were not significant. The minor variations in incidence of these changes between control and high dose animals were equally not considered to be significant.
The femur was included specifically for the bone marrow. This was examined for general features of the cellular population and proportion of cell types; no counts were undertaken. There was no evidence of any group related changes.
