Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- Source: 5 male and 5 female rats (nulliparous and non-pregnant), Wistar strain Crl:WI (Han) (outbred, SPF-Quality); Charles River Deutschland, Sulzfeld, Germany
- Age at study initiation: Young adult animals (approx. 10 weeks old)
- Weight at study initiation: males: mean 310 g std.dev. 11, females: mean 195 g std.dev. 6.
- Housing: Individually housed in labeled Makrolon cages (MIII 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).
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): ad libitum, free access to pelleted rodent diet.
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): ad libitum, 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.
- Acclimation period: at least 5 days before start of treatment under laboratory conditions. During the acclimatization period the animals were group housed in Makrolon cages (MIV type, height 18 cm).
- Health inspection At least prior to dosing. It was ensured that the animals were healthy and that the skin to be treated was intact and free from any abnormality.


ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 18-24 °C
- Humidity (%): 40-70%
- Air changes (per hr): at least 10
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12
- Any variations to these conditions were maintained in the raw data and had no effect on the outcome of the study.

IN-LIFE DATES: 2016-02-18 to 2016-03-03

Administration / exposure

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Vehicle:
propylene glycol
Details on dermal exposure:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: on the back of the animal
- % coverage: approx. 10% of the total body surface, i.e. approx. 25 cm² for males and 18 cm² for females
- Type of wrap if used: surgical gauze patch (Surgy 1D), successively covered with aluminum foil and Coban elastic bandage. A piece of Micropore tape was additionally used for fixation of the bandages in females only.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): after removal of dressing, the skin was cleaned of residual test item using tap water
- Time after start of exposure: 24 h
Duration of exposure:
24 h
Doses:
2000 mg/kg (single dosage)
No. of animals per sex per dose:
5
Control animals:
not specified
Details on study design:
Preparation of test item:
The preparation (w/w) was dosed within 4 hours after adding the vehicle to the test item. Homogeneity was assessed by visual inspection of the solutions and the formulations were stirred during dosing, which ensures homogeneity sufficient for these kinds of studies.
Adjustment was made for specific gravity of the vehicle. No correction was made for purity of the test item as the correction factor is 1.

Treatment of animals and application of test item:
Method: Dermal application. Test preparation was stirred on a magnetic stirrer during application.
Clipping: One day before exposure (Day -1) an area of approximately 5x7 cm on the back of each animal was clipped.

Frequency of dosing: Single dosage, on Day 1.

Observations:
Observation period: until day 15 after treatment
- Mortality/Viability: Twice daily.
- Body weights: Days 1 (pre-administration), 8 and 15 and at death.
- Clinical signs: At periodic intervals on the day of dosing (Day 1) and once daily thereafter, until Day 15. The time of onset, degree and duration were recorded and the symptoms graded according to fixed scales:
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: The moribund animal and animals surviving to the end of the observation periodwere sacrificed by oxygen/carbon dioxide procedure and subjected to necropsy. Descriptions of all internal macroscopic abnormalities were recorded.
Statistics:
No statistical analysis was performed.

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Key result
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Mortality:
No test substance related mortality occurred.
One male animal was sacrificed for humane reasons on Day 2. Considering the findings of this animal it was concluded that the animal showed severe effects due to the bandage procedure. Since the cause of death of this animal was not related to the test article, the data obtained from this animal were excluded from the study results.
Clinical signs:
Chromodacryorrhoea was noted for three female animals on Day 1.
Scales, scabs and/or erythema maculate were seen in the treated skin-area and/or cheek of the animals during the observation period. These local effects were considered not to have affected the conclusion of the study.
Body weight:
The changes noted in body weight gain in males and females were within the range expected for rats used in this type of study and were therefore considered not indicative of toxicity.
Gross pathology:
Macroscopic post mortem examination of the animals at termination did not reveal any abnormalities.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The dermal LD50 value of JNJ-39453193-AAA (T003063) in Wistar rats was established to exceed 2000 mg/kg body weight. Based on these results, the substance does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for acute dermal toxicity according to the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) of the United Nations (2015) (including all amendments) and Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures (including all amendments).
