1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
Monalazone disodium is an organic compound, which has the chemical formula of (C7H4ClNO4S)Na2 and molecular weight 279.60 g/mol. The compound is a solid white powder with a decomposition point at 242ºC °C.
In this document read-across is employed from two source substances (Sodium N-chlorobenzenesulphonamide a.ka. Chloramine B and Tosylchloramide sodium a.k.a. Chloramine T) to a target substance. The target and source substances are mono-constituent substances.
This read-across is based on the hypothesis that the source and target substances have similar physico-chemical, toxicological and environmental fate properties. This prediction is supported by the fact that the substances are structurally similar
The studies conducted on the source substances have been performed according to the current guidelines and in compliance with GLP. The read-across data on the source substances are used as key studies and are considered as valid for the target substance.
Therefore, read-across from toxicokinetic information and the toxicological studies (repeated dose toxicity (oral), study on fertility and reproduction toxicity) on the source substances are considered as an appropriate adaptation to the standard information requirements of Annex VIII of the REACH regulation.
2. SOURCE AND TARGET CHEMICAL(S) (INCLUDING INFORMATION ON PURITY AND IMPURITIES)
Target substance chemical formula Min% (w/w) Max% (w/w) Typicalconc. % (w/w)
Monalazone disodium (C7H4ClNO4S)Na2 98.0 100.0 99.0
No identified impurities
Source substances
Sodium N-chlorobenzenesulphonamide (C6H6ClNO2S)Na
Tosylchloramide sodium (C7H7SO2NCl)Na
3. ANALOGUE APPROACH JUSTIFICATION
No experimental data on absorption, distribution and excretion is available of the target substance. Based on the target substance structure (ionizable groups), relatively low molecular weight, high water solubility and moderate log Kow values (between-1 and 4) it is expected that monalazone disodium is absorbed readily via GI.
For Chloramine T no bioaccumulation is expected. The substance is rapidly metabolized to the residue marker, p-TSA. p-TSA is rapidly eliminated from rats. The primary metabolite found in the urine is 4-sulfamoylbenzoic acid. The data suggest that the methyl group of p-TSA is oxidized to primarily the benzoic acid derivative.
In conclusion, the read across substance Chloramine T transforms to p-toluenesulfonamide which has no dangerous effects and is secreted from the body. The same mechanism can be assumed for monalazone disodium.
It is very difficult to predict the metabolic changes a substance may undergo on the basis of physico-chemical information alone. Due to the similar structure the metabolites of the target substance are expected to be similar to the source substances.
Thus, the toxicokinetic data on chloramine T and chloramine B is justified in the assessment of the target substance.

See APPENDIX of the CSR- Objective of study:
- absorption
- distribution
- excretion
- metabolism
- Qualifier:
- no guideline followed
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Serial blood collections and brains were taken from Group 1. Tissues were assayed for chloramine-T concentrations. For groups 2 and 3, brains were removed and hypothalamus, striatum, and frontal cortex dissected out. Tissues were analyzed for 5-HT and 5-HIAA. The analysis suggested that chloramine-T is rapidly absorbed and enters the CNS. The ratio of AUCbrain/AUCblood indicated a potential for chloramine-T storage in the brain. Chloramine-T exposure resulted in a decrease in levels of 5-HT in the striatum and frontal cortex (13% and 17%, p<0.05 and p<0.01, respectively). No changes in the levels of 5-HIAA were found.

- Details on metabolites:
- Metabolites isolated from the 24-hour urine of the low dose group included 4-sulphamoylbenzyl alcohol (3.3 to 4.9% urinary radioactivity) and 4sulphamoylbenzoic acid (93.9 to 95.7% urinary radioactivity), along with unchanged parent compound. One rat in the low-dose group also produced sulfamoyl-benzaldehyde (1.5% urinary radioactivity). In the high-dose group, 4-sulphamoylbenzoic acid (92.7 to 94.5% urinary radioactivity), 4-sulphamoylbenzyl alcohol (2.0 to 2.7 % urinary radioactivity), and N-acetyl toluene-4-sulfonamide (2.1 to 2.3% urinary radioactivity) were found in the 24-hour urine in addition to the parent compound. The relative amounts of the metabolites suggested that the methyl group of p-TSA is oxidized to produce primarily the benzoic acid derivative. The alcohol and aldehyde, found in trace amounts, represent intermediate steps in metabolism.
- Conclusions:
- no bioaccumulation potential based on study results.
p-TSA is rapidly eliminated from rats. The primary metabolite found in the urine is 4-sulfamoylbenzoic acid. The data suggest that the methyl group of p-TSA is oxidized to primarily the benzoic acid derivative.
