Carcinogenicity
Administrative data
Description of key information
The assessment of the carcinogenicity of SPE1415 is based on read-across data from the structural analogue ATMP (acid).
In a pre-GLP, chronic toxicity and carcinogenicity study (BioDynamics Inc., 1979c), the structural analogue ATMP (acid) was administered via the diet to Long-Evans rats (70/sex/dose) at dose levels of 50, 150 or 500 mg/kg bw/day for 24 months. Mean body weight values for the high dose males were slightly reduced (5-10%) from week 16 to 87. Mean food consumption values for the high dose males were generally comparable to or greater than those of the control group (3-17%) during most weeks. In the high dose group there were statistically significant changes to organ weights (adrenal glands, spleen, liver, pituitary). There were no treatment-related gross lesions or histopathological findings in any of the groups. The NOAEL for carcinogenicity was greater than the highest dose tested (500 mg/kg bw/day).

- Conclusions:
- In a well conducted, pre-GLP chronic toxicity and carcinogenicity study (reliability score 2), there was no evidence of carcinogenic potential up to a dietary dose of 500 mg/kg bw/day (the highest dose tested) of CP42902 (ATMP). There were also no other toxicological effects of concern.
- Executive summary:
In a well conducted, pre-GLP chronic toxicity and carcinogenicity study (reliability score 2), CP42902 was administered via the diet to Long-Evans rats (70/sex/dose) at dose levels of 50, 150 or 500 mg/kg bw/day (groups II to IV) for 24 months. Control animals received untreated diet (Group I). Animals were regularly observed for clinical signs of toxicity, and body weights and food consumption were measured. Interim necropsies were performed at six and 12 months (10/sex/dose). Ophthalmoscopic examination, haematology, clinical chemistry and urinalysis were performed at 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months. Histopathological examinations were conducted on all animals that died or had to be killed in extremis, and also for 10 animals/sex for groups I and IV at six months and for all survivors in Groups I and IV at 24 months. Mean body weight values for the high dose males were slightly reduced (5-10%) from week 16 to 87. Mean food consumption values for the high dose males were generally comparable to or greater than those of the control group (3-17%) during most weeks. In the high dose group there were statistically significant changes to organ weights (adrenal glands, spleen, liver, pituitary). There were no treatment-related gross lesions or histopathological findings in any of the groups. The NOAEL for carcinogenicity was greater than the highest dose tested (500 mg/kg bw/day).
