- Control animals:
- yes, concurrent vehicle
- Details on study design:
- - Dose selection rationale: In a range-finding study rats were dosed with 100, 300, and 1000 mg/kg bw. At day 6 the high dose of 1000 mg/kg bw was lowered to 750 mg/kg bw, due to excessive toxicity. Reductions of the body weight were observed within days 4-5. In the gestation period body weights were only slightly reduced in the 300 and 750/1000 mg/kg bw dose groups. No effects were observed after Caesarean section on Day 21 of gestation up to the highest dose of 750/1000 mg/kg bw. The female animal of the 1000 mg/kg bw that was sacrificed on study Day 4 had received 3 doses. The animal lost a total of 28 g of body weight and consumed an average of 8 g of food per day. Clinical signs including excess salivation, rales, cold/warm to touch, hunched posture, and scant feces were noted. Necropsy revealed two black ulcerations present in the pyloric region of the stomach, dark red lobes of the liver, red lobes of the lungs, and intestines were distended with gas. Thus, doses of 25, 50, 200, and 800 mg/kg bw were chosen for the main study. The low dose was expected to be a NOAEL for maternal and embryo-fetal toxicity, and the 800 mg/kg bw dose was expected to produce minimal maternal toxicity and little or no developmental toxicity.

- Proportion data as well as descriptive and quantal data from the functional observational battery (FOB), was analyzed as contingency tables using the variance test for homogeneity of the binominal distribution.
Bartlett´s test of homogeneity of variances were used to estimate the probability that the dosage groups have different variances. Any non-significant result (p>0.001) indicate that an assumption of homogeneity of variance is anappropriate, and the data were compared using the Analysis of Variance. If p≤0.05, the groups given the test substance were compared with the control group using Dunnett´s Test. If Bartlett´s test was significant (p≤0.001), the Analysis of Variance Test was not appropriate (nonparametric). When 75% or fewer of the scores in all the groups were tied, the Kruskal-Wallis Test was used to analyze the data, and in the event of a significant result (p≤0.05), Dunn´s Test was used to compare the groups given the test substance with the control group. When more than 75% of the scores in any dosage group are tied, Fisher´s Exact Test was used to compare the proportion of ties in the dosage group.
Data from the motor activity test, with repeated measurements within a session, was analyzed using an Analysis of Variance with repeated measures. A significant effect (P≤0.05) in that test could have appeared as effect of Concentration (a difference between groups in the total across all measurements in a session) or as an interaction between Concentration and Block (a difference between groups at specific measurement periods). If the Concentration x Block interaction was significant, an Analysis of Variance Test was used to evaluate the data at each measuremnet period, and a significant result (p≤0.05) was followed by a comparison of the groups using Dunnett´s test. Variables with graded count scores, such as litter size, were analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis (if p≤0.05 followed by Dunn´s Test).

- CLINICAL SIGNS AND MORTALITY
There were no substance-related deaths. One female rat of the 800 mg/kg bw dose group was sacrificed due to adverse clinical observations and two more female rats were found dead due to an intubation error.
In the 800 mg/kg bw group excess salivation, chromorhinorrhea, urine-stained abdominal fur, red and/or dried perioral substance and red or clear perinasal substance occurred in significantly increased numbers of male rats. All other clinical signs were considered unrelated to treatment.
Significantly increased numbers of females in the 800 mg/kg group had excess salivation.
BODY WEIGHT AND WEIGHT GAIN
800 mg/kg bw:
Males: reduction of body weight gain (DSs 1 to 14) and body weight (day 8). Body weight mean on day 45 was 94% of the control value.
Females: Precohabitation: no effects; gestation: reduced body weight gain in the 800 mg/kg bw group; lactation: no effects
FOOD CONSUMPTION:
800 mg/kg bw:
Males: reduction from day 1-14 (absolute and relative) and day 1-43 (relative)
Females:
Precohabitation: reduction from study day (DS) 1-8 (absolute and relative)
Gestation: reduction from days of gestation (DG) 0-7 and 15-18
Lactation: no effects
No effects were observed in the other dose groups.
HAEMATOLOGY
No biologically important differences were observed.
Reductions in APTT for females of the 50 and 800 mg/kg bw group reflects an increased value for the vehicle control. ALT and triglycerides were increased at 50/200 and 25/800 mg/kg bw groups, respectively. These effects were considered unrelated to treatment as no dose dependency was observed.
CLINICAL CHEMISTRY
No biologically important differences were observed.
NEUROBEHAVIOUR
No effects were observed.
ORGAN WEIGHTS
No treatment-related effects were observed.
GROSS PATHOLOGY
800 mg/kg bw:
Males: thickened walls of the cardiac region of the stomach and white areas on the mucosal surface (3/10), ulceration on the mucosal surface of the cardiac region of the stomach (1/10)
Females: lesions of the cardiac region of the stomach (2/10)
HISTOPATHOLOGY: NON-NEOPLASTIC
800 mg/kg bw: findings in the non-glandular stomach related to test substance (8/8 males; 4/4 females)
200 mg/kg bw: findings in the non-glandular stomach possibly related to test substance, irritating effects (1/5 males)
25, 50 mg/kg bw: no adverse effects observed
OTHER FINDINGS
No clear and consistent treatment related differences in results for the qualitative and quantitative mcroscopic assessment of bone marrow smears were observed.
