HISTOPATHOLOGY: Yes. All organ and tissue samples were processed embedded and cut at a thickness of 2-4 µm and stained with haemotoxylin and eosin. The following were examined by a pathologist:
- all tissues and organs collected at the scheculed sacrifice from all animals of the control and the highest dose group.
- all gross lesions of all animals. Tissues mentioned within brackets were not examined as there were no signs of toxicity of target organ involvement. - Other examinations:
- The following organ weights were recorded from the animals on the scheduled necropsy:
Adrenal glands
Brain
Epididymides
Heart
Kidneys
Liver
Spleen
Testes
Thymus - Statistics:
- The following statistical methods were used to analyse the data:
If the variable could be assumed to follow a normal distribution, the Dunnett-test (many-to-one t-test) based on a pooled variance estimate was applied for the comparison of the treated groups and the control groups for each sex.
- The Steet-test (many-to-one rank test) was applied when the data could not be assumed to follow a normal distribution
- The exact Fisher-test was applied to frequency data.
All tests were two sided and in all cases p < 0.05 was accepted as the lowest level of significance. Group means were calculated for continuous data and medians were calculated for discrete data. Test statistics were calculated on the basis of exact values for means and pooled variances. Individual values, means and standard deviations may have been rounded. Therefore two groups may display the same prented means for a different parameter yet display different test statistic values.

- CLINICAL SIGNS AND MORTALITY
There were no clinical signs or behavioural changes over the 28 day observation period that were considered to be of toxicological significance.
Red faeces noted among all males and females at 500 and 1000 mg/kg/day from weeks 1 onwards was considered due to the staining properties of the substance. Salivation noted among all high dose males between days 14 and 18 was temporary. Incidental findings included alopecia, chromodacryorrhoea, broken upper incisors and scabs. These were not considered to be toxicologically significant.
BODY WEIGHT AND WEIGHT GAIN
Increased body weight gains were seen in males dosed at 150 mg/kg/day (statistically significat from week 1 or 3 onwards for relative and absolute bodyweights respectively). However this was considered to have occurred by chance or may represent a weak low-dosage growth stimulation effect, and was not considered to be toxicologically significant. Weight loss as noted in one high dose male between days 22 and 28 was not considered to be significant when compared with the rest of the group. The statistically significant lower weight gain of the high dose females in week 3 was not consistently noted during treatment and remained within the normal range for rats of this age and strain.
FOOD CONSUMPTION
The higher food intake of males at 150 and 500 mg/kg/day noted during the treatment was considered to be a chance observation or may represent a weak low-dosage growth stimulation effect and was considered of no toxicological significance. Food intake values of high dose males remained within the range expected for rats of this age and strain. Food consumption corrected for body weight of control females was considered to be slightly high in week 1. In addition, no dose-related changes in food consumption were noted among females treated with the test substance.
HAEMATOLOGY
Values acheiving statistical significance were not related to the dose and occurred within the normal variation. (lower partial thromboplastin time of males at 500 mg/kg/day and lower monocyt counts of females at 150 and 1000 mg/kg/day).
CLINICAL CHEMISTRY
Statistical significance for the lower creatinine level in high dose males was caused by a slightly low value for one male. As this was not observed in other animals it was not considered to be toxicologically important. No dose related response was noted for the higher cholesterol levels of females at 150 mg/kg/day and for the higher creatinine and chloride levels of females at 500 mg/kg/day.
NEUROBEHAVIOUR
No changes were observed in hearing ability, pupillary reflex, static righting reflex and grip strength. The vcariation in motor activity did not indicate a relation with treatment. The statistical significant increase of the high sensor counts in group 3 males was considered to have occurred by chance.
ORGAN WEIGHTS
An increased thymus weight was noted for two males at 150 mg/kg/day and to a lesser extent for two males at 1000 mg/kg/day. Statistical significance was achieved for the mean group responsed at 150 mg/kg/day. No further changes were noted.
GROSS PATHOLOGY
Incidental findings among control or treated animals included a liver grown together with the stomach, pelvic dilation of the kidneys, adrenal glands grown together with kidneys, enlargement of the thymus, watery -clear cysts on the kidneys, fluid in the uterus, reduced size of the thymus and scab formation on the skin. These were not considered toxicologically significant.
HISTOPATHOLOGY: NON-NEOPLASTIC
There were no microscopic findings recorded which could be attributed to treatment with the test substance.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- There were no changes at determination of clinical appearance, performance of functional observations, body weight and food consumption measurements, or alterations during clinical laboratory investigations, macroscopic examination, organ weight determination and microscopic examination that were considered to be of toxicological significance.
From the results a definitive NOAEL of 1000 mg/kg/day was established. This can also be considered a NOEL following HSY-2701 adminsitration. - Executive summary:
In a GLP compliant study conducted in accordance with the OECD guideline 407, HSY-2701 was found not to exhibit any toxicologically significant effects. The NOEL and NOAEL for HSY-2701 was established to be 1000 mg/kg bw/day.
