Test animals

Species:

rat

Strain:

Wistar

Sex:

female

Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:

Number of animals 6 Females (nulliparous and non-pregnant). Each dose group consisted of 3 animals.
Age and body weight Young adult animals (approx. 8 or 11 weeks old) were selected. Body weight variation did not exceed +/- 20% of the sex mean.
Identification Earmark and tail mark
Health inspection At least prior to dosing. It is ensured that the animals were healthy and without any abnormality that might affect the study integrity.
Conditions
Environmental controls for the animal room were set to maintain 18 to 24°C, a relative humidity of 40 to 70%, at least 10 air changes/hour, and a 12-hour light/12-hour dark cycle. Any variations to these conditions were maintained in the raw data and had no effect on the outcome of the study.
Accommodation
Group housing of 3 animals per cage in labeled Makrolon cages (MIV type; height 18 cm.) containing sterilized sawdust as bedding material (Lignocel S 8-15, JRS - J.Rettenmaier & Söhne GmbH + CO. KG, Rosenberg, Germany) and paper as cage-enrichment (Enviro-dri, Wm. Lillico & Son (Wonham Mill Ltd), Surrey, United Kingdom).
Acclimatization period was at least 5 days before start of treatment under laboratory conditions.
Diet
Free access to pelleted rodent diet (SM R/M-Z from SSNIFF® Spezialdiäten GmbH, Soest, Germany).
Water
Free access to tap water.
Diet, water, bedding and cage enrichment evaluation for contaminants and/or nutrients was performed according to facility standard procedures. There were no findings that could interfere with the study.

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:

oral: gavage

Vehicle:

propylene glycol

Details on oral exposure:

VEHICLE
Vehicle Propylene glycol (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) (specific gravity 1.036)
Rationale The vehicle was selected based on trial formulations performed at WIL Research Europe and on test substance data supplied by the sponsor.
Preparation The formulations (w/w) were prepared within 4 hours prior to dosing. Homogeneity was accomplished to a visually acceptable level. Adjustment was made for specific gravity of the vehicle. No correction was made for purity of the test substance.

Dose level (volume) 2000 mg/kg (10 mL/kg) body weight.

Doses:

Dose level (volume) 2000 mg/kg (10 mL/kg) body weight.

No. of animals per sex per dose:

6 Females (nulliparous and non-pregnant). Each dose group consisted of 3 animals.

Control animals:

not specified

Details on study design:

Observations
Mortality/Viability Twice daily.
Body weights Days 1 (pre-administration), 8 and 15.
Clinical signs At periodic intervals on the day of dosing (Day 1) and once daily thereafter, until Day 15. The symptoms were graded according to fixed scales and the time of onset, degree and duration were recorded:
Maximum grade 4: grading slight (1) to very severe (4)
Maximum grade 3: grading slight (1) to severe (3)
Maximum grade 1: presence is scored (1).
Necropsy At the end of the observation period, all animals were sacrificed by oxygen/carbon dioxide procedure and subjected to necropsy. Descriptions of all internal macroscopic abnormalities were recorded.

Effect level:

> 2 000 mg/kg bw

Mortality:

no mortality observed

Clinical signs:

Hunched posture and/or piloerection were noted among the animals between Days 1 and 5.

Body weight:

The body weight gain shown by the animals over the study period was considered to be similar to that expected of normal untreated animals of the same age and strain.

Gross pathology:

No abnormalities were found at macroscopic post mortem examination of the animals.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

not classified

Remarks:

Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU

Conclusions:

The oral LD50 value of CH03938 in Wistar rats was established to exceed 2000 mg/kg body weight.

According to the OECD 423 test guideline, the LD50 cut-off value was considered to exceed 5000 mg/kg body weight.

Based on these results, CH03938 does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for acute oral toxicity according to the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) of the United Nations (2011) (including all amendments) and Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures (including all amendments).
