Genetic toxicity in vitro
Description of key information
The mutagenic potential of the test substance was assessed on histidine dependent auxotrophic mutants of Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98 AND TA 100, and on a tryptophan dependent mutant of Escherichia coli WP2uvrA/Pkm101 in an Ames assay ( OECD guideline 471).There was no evidence of toxicity or mutagenic activity seen at any concentration of the test material in either repeat mutation test. Under ther test conditions, BMS 589154-01 showed no evidence of mutagenic activity in this bacterial system.
In a chromosome aberration study, cultured Chinese Hamster Ovary cells ( CHO-WBL) were exposed to different concentrations of BMS-589154-01 (dissolved in DMSO), in the presence and absence of S9-mix according to OECD 473 guideline and GLP principles.
BMS-589154-01 did not induce a statistically significant or biologically relevant increase in the number of cells with chromosome aberrations in the absence and presence of S9-mix. No statistically significant increase in the percent cells with numerical aberrations (polyploidy and/or endoreduplication) was observed in any test article treated group. Based on the results, BMS-589154-01 was not clastogenic in CHO-WBL cells when evaluated under conditions and at the maximum concentrations recommended by international guidelines for in vitro cytogenetic studies.
When tested in a mammalian gene mutation assy in accordance with OECD Guideline 490, the test item, BMS-589154-01 did not induce any increases in the mutant frequency at the TK +/- locus in L5178Y cells that exceeded the Global Evaluation Factor (GEF) of 126 x 10-6, consequently it is considered to be non-mutagenic in this assay.

- Preincubation period: 24 hours
- Exposure duration: 3 hr (with and without S9-mix) and 20 hr (without S9-mix)
- Fixation time (start of exposure up to fixation or harvest of cells): 20 hr
SPINDLE INHIBITOR (cytogenetic assays): Colcemid
STAIN (for cytogenetic assays): DiffQuik solution
NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: duplicates in one experiment
METHODS OF SLIDE PREPARATION AND STAINING TECHNIQUE USED: At harvest, the culture medium was removed and the cells were washed with phosphate buffered saline. The exposed monolayer of cells was trypsinized and an aliquot was removed for assessment of cell number via Coulter counter. Cells were then concentrated by centrifugation and resuspended in hypotonic solution (0.075 M KCl) and washed at least once with fixative (using an approximately 3:1 methanol:glacial acetic acid mix) before being stored in the refrigerator. These fixed cells were washed once more with fresh fixative prior to slide preparation. The final concentrated cell suspension was dropped on clean, cold wet glass slides, dried prior to staining with DiffQuik solution at room temperature, and coverslipped. At least two slides were prepared for each culture.
NUMBER OF METAPHASE SPREADS ANALYSED PER DOSE (if in vitro cytogenicity study in mammalian cells): Structural chromosomal aberrations were analyzed from a total of 300 metaphase cells (150 from each culture) or ≥ 50 aberrant cells (25 aberrant cells from each culture) from each test article concentration or control.
DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: Cytotoxicity, as assessed using relative population doubling from Coulter counts, was measured in all cultures. Cells treated with test article or positive controls were compared with vehicle control cultures.
- Any supplementary information relevant to cytotoxicity: In addition, all cultures were examined visually for signs of cytotoxicity (i.e., visible cell abnormalities), changes in cell morphology, pH change and precipitates at the time of dosing, at the end of the 3-hour treatment (at wash), and prior to harvest.
OTHER EXAMINATIONS:
- Determination of polyploidy: yes
- Determination of endoreplication: yes - Evaluation criteria:
- As a guideline, the test article would be considered positive for inducing chromosomal aberrations if a significant increase (p ≤ 0.05) in the mean percent of cells with chromosomal aberrations is observed at one or more dose levels. If a significant increase is seen at one or more dose levels, a dose-response should be observed. A response would be considered statistically significant for dose-response trend in the Cochran-Armitage test if p ≤ 0.05. At least one concentration should be associated with an increase that is outside the historical control range of previous vehicle control treated cultures.
The test article would be considered negative for inducing chromosomal aberrations if no statistically significant increase (p ≤ 0.05) is observed in the mean percent of cells with chromosomal aberrations at any of the test concentrations and there is no concentration-related increase when evaluated in the Cochran-Armitage test. All results should be comparable to the historical control range of previous vehicle control treated cultures.
Cases which do not clearly fit the positive or negative criteria may be judged equivocal (e.g., a response is statistically significant but not dose dependent). In these cases, the Study Director, based on sound scientific judgment, may take additional factors into consideration in evaluating the test results (e.g., reproducibility of response). - Statistics:
- After completion of microscopic analyses, data were decoded and a One-tailed Fisher’s Exact test was performed on the total number of cells with structural aberrations and the total number of cells with more than one chromosome aberration comparing the treated cells to the results obtained from the relevant control group. The detection of dose-response trends was carried out using the Cochran-Armitage test. The same statistical analysis was performed for cells exhibiting polyploidy and/or endoreduplication.

- TEST-SPECIFIC CONFOUNDING FACTORS
- Effects of pH: No.
- Precipitation: Precipitates were observed at the end of test article treatment at ≥ 200 μg/mL in the 20-hour treatment without metabolic activation, ≥ 250 μg/mL in the 3-hour treatment without metabolic activation, and at 489 μg/mL in the 3-hour treatments with metabolic activation.
RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES: Population doubling in each of the range-finding treatments was below 1.5. However, the low growth of the cultures does not impact the study overall as solubility limits were able to be established from these trials.
Precipitates were observed at ≥ 245 μg/mL in each treatment at the end of test article treatment. Changes in cell morphology and the pH (as indicated by color change of the media) were not observed in any treatment at the end of test article treatment.
HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA (with ranges, means and standard deviation and confidence interval (e.g. 95%)
The validity of this assay was demonstrated since positive controls (mitomycin C [MMC] and cyclophosphamide [CP]) induced statistically significant increases in the frequencies of structural aberrations and the vehicle control values were within the historical vehicle control range of 0% to 4% for the 3-hour exposure without metabolic activation, 0% to 5% for the 3-hour exposure with metabolic activation and 0% to 4% for the 20-hour exposure without metabolic activation.

- Executive summary:
In a chromosome aberration study, cultured Chinese Hamster Ovary cells ( CHO-WBL) were exposed to different concentrations of BMS-589154-01 (dissolved in DMSO), in the presence and absence of S9-mix according to OECD 473 guideline and GLP principles. In the cytogenetic assay, BMS-589154-01 was tested up to and including the precipitating concentration of 250 µg/mL for a 3 h exposure time with a 20 h fixation time in the absence of S9 -mix, and up to and including the precipitating and cytotoxic concentration of 489 µg/mL for a 3 h exposure time with a 20 h fixation time in the presence of S9 -mix.
In the absence of S9 -mix, BMS-589154-01 was tested up to and including the precipitating and cytotoxic concentration of 200 µg/mL for a 20 h continuous exposure time. BMS-589154-01 did not induce a statistically significant or biologically relevant increase in the number of cells with chromosome aberrations in the absence and presence of S9-mix. No statistically significant increase in the percent cells with numerical aberrations (polyploidy and/or endoreduplication) was observed in any test article treated group.
Based on the results, BMS-589154-01 was not clastogenic in CHO-WBL cells when evaluated under conditions and at the maximum concentrations recommended by international guidelines for in vitro cytogenetic studies.

p = precipitate of test item at the end of exposure
In the all three exposure groups there was evidence of marked reductions in the relative suspension growth (%RSG) of cells treated with the test item when compared to the concurrent vehicle controls. A precipitate of the test item was observed at 500 µg/mL in both 4-hour exposure groups. A precipitate of the test item was observed at 250 µg/mL in the 24- hour -S9 exposure group. In the subsequent mutagenicity experiments the maximum dose level was limited by a combination of test item induced toxicity and precipitate.
Mutagenicity Test
A summary of the results from the test is presented in Table 1 (attached).
The results of the microtitre plate counts and their analysis are presented in Tables 2 to 10. (attached) In the all three exposure groups, there was evidence of marked test item induced toxicity, as indicate by the %RSG and RTG values (Tables 3, 6 and 9). There was no evidence of marked reductions in viability (%V) in either of the three exposure groups, therefore indicating that residual toxicity had not occurred (Tables 3, 6 and 9). Near to optimum levels of toxicity were achieved in in the 4-hour-S9 and 24-hour –S9 exposures. Optimum levels of toxicity were not achieved in the 4-hour +S9 as the dose level where optimum levels of toxicity occurred (500 µg/mL) was excluded due to excessive precipitate. The dose levels of 500 and 250 µg/mL in the 4-hour –S9 and 24-hour –S9 respectively, were not plated out for 5-TFT resistance and % viability due to excessive toxicity. Acceptable levels of toxicity were seen with both positive control substances (Tables 3, 6 and 9).
The vehicle controls had mutant frequency values that were considered acceptable for the L5178Y cell line at the TK +/- locus. The positive controls produced marked increases in the mutant frequency per viable cell achieving the acceptability criterion, indicating that the test system was operating satisfactorily, and that the metabolic activation system was functional (Tables 3, 6, and 9).
The test item did not induce any toxicologically significant increases in the mutant frequency x 10-6 per viable cell in either of the three exposure groups. The GEF value of the test item dose levels were not exceeded in any of the three exposure groups including several dose levels beyond the acceptable level of toxicity. A precipitate of the test item was observed at and above 400 µg/mL in both 4-hour exposure groups. Also a precipitate of the test item was observed at 250 µg/mL in the 24-hour –S9 exposure. The numbers of small and large colonies and their analysis are presented in Tables 4, 7 and 10.

Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based upon the negative results found in the in vitro battery of Ames test, mammalian chromosome aberration and mammalian gene mutation, there is no justification to test the substance in an in vivo genotoxicity model. Therefore, there is no concern for mutagenic potential and the hazard classification critieria for germ cell mutagenicity as set out in 1272/2008/EC (as amended) are not met.
