A complete necropsy was conducted on all animals. Animals were euthanized by carbon dioxide inhalation and exsanguinated. Microscopic examination was performed on all tissues from all animals in the control and high-dose groups euthanized at the scheduled primary necropsy. Gross lesions were examined from animals in the low- and mid-dose groups euthanized at the primary necropsy and animals in the control and high-dose groups euthanized at the recovery necropsy. In addition, the liver was evaluated from animals in the low- and mid-dose groups euthanized at the primary necropsy, as well as animals in the control and high-dose group at the recovery necropsy. - Statistics:

HAEMATOLOGY
- Haematology
A decrease red cell mass parameters (haemoglobin, red cell count, haematocrit), without an associated increase in reticulocytes, was present in the 500 mg/kg/day females. This finding did not occur in a dose-related manner as similar changes were not observed in the 1000 mg/kg/day female group, and no haematology changes were observed in males at any dose level. Therefore, the haematology changes in the 500 mg/kg/day female group likely represent spurious findings.
- Coagulation
The following statistically significant difference did not occur in a dose related manner and was not considered to be test substance-related: Prothrombin time (PT) was slightly prolonged in male rats at 30 mg/kg/day.
CLINICAL CHEMISTRY
- Clinical Chemistry
Serum bilirubin was increased in the 1000 mg/kg/day female group (45% above control; statistically significant). Also, minimal increases in alkaline phosphatase and/or bilirubin in some individual animals in the 1000 mg/kg/day male and female groups may indicate a very slight cholestatic effect in the liver. However, there were no correlative histopathological findings. So relationship to treatment and biological relevance is uncertain, but based on the minimal nature of these changes, they are not considered to be adverse under the conditions of this study.
Creatinine (CREA) was lower in the 1000 mg/kg/day female group (13% below control; statistically significant). A similar change was not observed in males. Biologically relevant changes in CREA generally occur as increases rather than decreases. Therefore, based on the minimal nature of the change, as well as the direction of the change (decreased rather than increased), this lower CREA in the 1000 mg/kg/day female group was considered to be unrelated to treatment and non-adverse. Creatinine (CREA) was higher in male rats exposed to 500 mg/kg/day; however, the difference did not occur in a dose related manner and was not considered to be test substance-related.
Cholesterol (CHOL) was lower in male rats exposed to 30 mg/kg/day; however, the difference did not occur in a dose related manner and was not considered to be test substance-related.
URINALYSIS
- Urine volume was minimally increased in 1000 mg/kg/day females, but this change was not associated with correlative changes in other kidney-related clinical pathology parameters or with microscopic changes in the kidneys and thus was considered non-adverse. pH was higher in male rats exposed to 500 mg/kg/day; however, the difference did not occur in a dose related manner and was not considered to be test substance-related.
ORGAN WEIGHTS
- Liver weight parameters were increased in male rats at 1000 mg/kg/day and in female rats at 500 and 1000 mg/kg/day. In the 1000 mg/kg/day male group, liver weight increases were minimal and only liver weight relative to body weight (increased 14% above control) was statistically significant. In females, liver weight increases in the affected groups were statistically significant for most parameters; liver weight relative to body weight was increased 20% and 22% above controls, in the 500 and 1000 mg/kg/day groups, respectively. These liver weight changes were not associated with test substance-related changes in liver-related clinical pathology parameters or with microscopic changes in the liver. These changes likely represent a physiologic response (liver enzyme induction) associated with metabolism of the test article and are considered test substance related but non-adverse.
Kidney weight relative to body weight was minimally but statistically higher (12% above control) in females administered 1000 mg/kg/day. Absolute kidney weight and kidney weight relative to brain weight were similarly higher compared to control, but the differences were not statistically significant. These kidney weight changes were not associated with correlative clinical pathology or microscopic changes, and no test article-related changes in kidney weights occurred in males. Therefore, these kidney weight changes in the 1000 mg/kg/day female group may represent spurious findings, but regardless of relationship to test article administration, are considered non-adverse.
All other statistically significant organ weight changes were considered to be unrelated to test substance administration since they did not occur in a dose-related manner. These included lower thymus weights in the 500 mg/kg/day male group, and higher epididymides weights in all treated male groups. The epididymal weight differences were likely the result of a low epididymal weight in one control animal.
GROSS PATHOLOGY
- There were no gross findings in any treated male or female group.
HISTOPATHOLOGY: NON-NEOPLASTIC
- Degeneration and atrophy of olfactory epithelium was present in one animal each in the 500 and 1000 mg/kg/day male and female groups, as well as in one control female. The olfactory lesion in treated animals was generally more severe than that observed in the one control. Therefore, notwithstanding the absence of a clear dose response, the olfactory changes observed in low incidences in the 500 and 1000 mg/kg/day groups may represent a test article related effect. Olfactory degeneration and atrophy in the one affected males at 500 mg/kg/day was associated with hypertrophy and hyperplasia of the epithelial mucosa. This latter finding may be indicative of regurgitation.
Accentuation of the normal striatal pattern of the dentin of the incisor tooth (graded as “present”) was observed in 0/5, 0/5, 0/5, and 4/5 males in the 0, 30, 500, and 1000 mg/kg/day groups, respectively. In females, this change was observed in 0/5, 0/5, 1/5, and 4/5 animals in the 0, 30, 500, and 1000 mg/kg/day groups, respectively. Dental striations are known to occur following exposure to fluoride or fluoride-containing compounds and have been shown to represent hypermineralized regions in the dentin. In the current study, dentin striations were not associated with other microscopic changes in the teeth (such as altered enamel or effects on the enamel organ) or with clinical abnormalities in dentition. Therefore, under the conditions of this study, these changes were considered indicative of exposure to a fluoride-containing compound but non-adverse.
There were no other test article-related microscopic changes. Low incidences of minimal single cell lymphoid necrosis (apoptosis) of the thymus was observed in all male groups, including the control group, and in 2/5 females in the 1000 mg/kg/day group. Slight increases in the density of apoptotic lymphocytes is a common finding in rodents, and based on the similar incidences and minimal severity of this change in control and treated groups, and the lack of a clear dose-response, this observation was considered to be unrelated to exposure to the test article.

- Executive summary:
The objective of this study was to assess the potential repeated-dose toxicity of the test substance in rats. Four groups of male and female (nulliparous and non-pregnant) Crl:CD(SD) rats (5/sex/group for main study and 3 females/dose group for pharmacokinetic evaluation) were administered dose formulations of 0, 30, 500, and 1000 mg/kg/day for approximately 7 days (7 days for main study animals and one additional dose for pharmacokinetic animals). Test substance was shown to be homogeneous and at targeted concentrations. Body weights and clinical observations were evaluated daily. Clinical and anatomical pathology endpoints, hepatic biochemical and pharmacokinetic evaluations were determined at the end of the exposure period.
No test substance-related deaths, clinical signs, or effects on body weight were observed at any dose level. There were no adverse differences in coagulation, clinical chemistry or urinalysis parameters in male or female rats at any concentration tested. A decrease in red cell mass parameters (haemoglobin, red cell count, haematocrit) without an associated increase in reticulocytes was present in the 500 mg/kg/day females. This finding did not occur in a dose-related manner, similar changes were not observed in the 1000 mg/kg/day group, and no haematology changes were observed in males at any dose level. Therefore, this finding is likely unrelated to treatment. Administration of the test substance at concentrations of up to 1000 mg/kg/day for seven days was associated with low incidences of degeneration and atrophy of the nasal olfactory epithelium in males and females at 500 and 1000 mg/kg/day. These findings did not occur in a clear dose-related pattern but may represent a test substance related effect based on the increased severity of the changes compared to that which may be seen in control animals.
Other changes considered test substance-related but non-adverse included increased liver weights in males at 1000 mg/kg/day and in females at 500 and 1000 mg/kg/day, and increased kidney weights in females at 1000 mg/kg/day. These organ weight changes were not associated with correlative changes in related clinical pathology parameters or with microscopic changes in the respective organs and were thus considered non-adverse. Similarly, accentuation of the normal striatal pattern of the dentin of the incisor teeth in the 1000 mg/kg/day males and 500 and 1000 mg/kg/day females was not associated with effects on other tooth structures or with clinical abnormalities of the teeth and thus were also considered non-adverse.
There were no test substance-related pathology changes in males or females administered 30 mg/kg/day of the test substance.
