Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 4 based on GHS criteria
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
LD 50 is estimated to be 300-500 mg/kg and classified as acute toxic class 4.
Executive summary:

BMS 217947 -01 was tested for acute oral toxicity on Sprague-Dawley male and female rats, according to EU Test Method B.1 bis (fixed dose procedure) and OECD Test Guideline 423. No deaths were observed on 3 male and 3 female rats at the 200 mg/kg bw dose, while all 3 female rats died at the dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. Based on this, the oral LD50 for the substance was estimated to be 300 - 500 mg/kg bw. This is sufficient to classify the substance as acute toxic, categorty 4, according to CLP.

No clinical signs or adverse effects were observed at the 200 mg/kg bw dose level.
