A minimum of five of six calibration standards must be used to generate the calibration curve. If the lowest or highest calibration standard is excluded from the regression, sample results outside the acceptable range will not be reported. For quantitation purposes, the response of three peaks will be combined to determine the analyte response. The retention times of the three peaks will be identified in the SST as the third, fourth and fifth peaks.
These retention times will be used to identify the peaks in the other injections for each analytical run.
Acceptance Criterion
The Percent Recovery (PR) of each of the calibration standards must be 100 ±10%, with respect to the calibration standard nominal concentration. The Coefficient of Determination (R2) value must be >= 0.995
System suitability test:
Replicate injections of an independent preparation were used to determine system suitability for each run. The acceptance criteria for SST were as follows: injection repeatability (RSD) ≤5%, tailing factor (T) ≤2, and resolution (R) ≥1.5. The analyte peak retention time was between 11.849 and 12.536 minutes for peak 1; between 14.262 and 14.952 for peak 2; and between 16.565 and 17.261 for peak 3. The retention time and peak area RSD were consistently ≤5% for all peaks in all runs. There were no significant peaks adjacent to the analyte; therefore, the resolution was ≥25.1 for all injections. The tailing factors were consistently ≤1.4 for all peaks in all runs. The SST parameters met the acceptance criteria for all reported runs.
Calibration curve:
A multi-point calibration curve was used for quantification by injecting six standards. The acceptance criterion for the calibration curve was a coefficient of determination (R2) ≥0.995 and the acceptance criterion for the individual standards was a concentration of 100 ±10% recovery of the nominal concentration. All of the standards for each of the reported runs met the acceptance criteria for accuracy and linearity.
Repeatability:
Injections of the performance check standard (same solution as the SST standards) were performed periodically throughout the runs. The acceptance criterion for the performance check standards was 100 ±10% recovery of the nominal concentration. All performance check injections for the reported runs met the acceptance criterion.
Homogenity
Week 1 dose formulations were analyzed for homogeneity verification. Two samples from the top, middle, and bottom of the 250 mg/mL concentration were injected and analyzed.
Samples for each level met the sample analysis acceptance criterion for accuracy and precision (100 ±15% average recovery; ≤15% RSD).
Concentration
Dose formulations for Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8 were analyzed for concentration verification. Duplicate samples from the middle stratum at the 0 mg/mL (vehicle control) and 250 mg/mL concentration were injected and analyzed. Only vehicle control samples were submitted for analysis for Week 8 dose formulations. Samples for each level met the sample analysis acceptance criteria for accuracy and precision (100 ±15% average recovery; ≤15% RSD).
Test article was not detected in the vehicle control samples. - Duration of treatment / exposure:

- Details on study design:
- - Dose selection rationale:
The dose levels were selected by the Sponsor, or in consultation with the Sponsor, on the basis of available data from a previous study. In a 28-day toxicity study in rats, animals were administered the test article by oral gavage at dose levels of 25, 250, and 1000 mg/kg/day. Following exposure to the test article for 28 consecutive days, no toxicologically significant changes were observed and the No-Observed-Effect-Level (NOEL) was considered to be 1000 mg/kg/day. The OECD 421 Guideline specifies the limit dose to be 1000 mg/kg/day, and therefore, this was selected to be the high-dose level. The low-dose level was selected to be ten times lower than the limit dose. Based on the lack of reproductive data, the two mid-dose levels were chosen to be three and six times higher than the low-dose level. - Positive control:

Details on results (P0)
Mortality:
One female at 1000 mg/kg/day (animal number 318) was found dead on Study Day 11. Macroscopic observations included moderate amount of red fluid in the thoracic cavity and severe laceration/perforation of the esophagus. There were no relevant microscopic
observation for this animal but based on macroscopic observations, the cause of death was confirmed to be the result of a dosing related event and not treatment related.
Detailed clinical observations:
There were no clinical observations that followed a definitive dose response pattern to indicate a relationship to treatment. A number of different findings were noted; however, they were either low in incidence or comparable to the controls and therefore were not
considered test article related.
Body weights and body weight changes:
Mean body weight in the treatment groups (100, 300, 600, and 1000 mg/kg/day) was not statistically different from the controls in either male or female animals during the course of the study. There were some statistically significant alterations in mean body weight change; however, there were no patterns to indicate a relationship to test article administration across the treatment groups during the appropriate premating, pairing, and postmating periods in the males, and during the premating, gestation, and lactation periods in the females. In males, body weight change was significantly decreased at 100 and 1000 mg/kg/day during the postmating period from Days 5-6. As the mean body weight at these dose levels was unaffected by treatment and as body weight change at the 300 and 600 mg/kg/day groups was comparable to controls, the decreases in body weight change at the low and high-dose levels were not considered toxicologically meaningful. In females, mean body weight change was statistically increased at 300 and 1000 mg/kg/day during gestation intervals 14-20 and 0-20. The increase in body weight change was not considered adverse.
Food consumption
Mean food consumption showed some statistically significant increases and decreases in the treatment groups during the course of the study, as compared to controls. However, there were no definitive dose responsive changes that could be attributed to exposure with the test article.
Reproductive performance
Parental Reproductive and Fertility Indices
The reproductive and fertility indices evaluated in the treatment groups at 100, 300, 600, and 1000 mg/kg/day did not result in any significant test article-related changes. The male and female mating, fertility, and fecundity indices for the treatment groups ranged from 91.7 to 100%, which was identical to the range of values noted in the controls. In addition, there were no statistically significant changes in the copulatory interval measured between the treatment groups, which ranged from 2.4 to 3.3 days, and the controls at 3.3 days. All values were also within the historical control range for this laboratory (2.4 to 4.2 days).
Postmortem study evaluations
Parental macroscopic evaluation
There were no treatment-related macroscopic findings; all macroscopic findings were considered to be incidental because of the low incidence, lack of a dose response relationship, observed in respective control groups, and/or are typical of background changes seen in rats of this strain and age.
Parental organ weights
There were no test article-related organ weight changes.
Parental microscopic evaluations
There were no treatment-related microscopic findings; all microscopic findings were considered to be incidental because of low incidence, lack of a dose response relationship, observed in respective control groups, and/or are typical of background changes seen in rats of this strain and age.

Details on results (F1)
Parturition data
There were no test article-related changes in the parturition or F1 litter data for the animals treated with the test articvle. These parameters included the number of females with at least one stillborn pup, the number of females with all stillborn pups, gestation length, the total number of pups born per litter, gestation index, stillborn index, total implantation scars per litter, and the number of corpora lutea. At 300 mg/kg/day five females were noted with at least one stillborn pup and at 1000 mg/kg/day one female was noted with at least one stillborn pup. As there were fewer females affected at the high-dose level, as compared to the 300 mg/kg/day
group animals, these stillborn rates were considered to be spurious in nature and not toxicologically meaningful.
Pup survival
There were no treatment-related changes in the F1 pup survival during the preculling period as compared to controls. These parameters included the number of liveborn pups per litter on LD 0 and 4 during the preculling period, and the viability index.
Pup sex ratios
The F1 pup sex ratio (percent males per litter) in the treatment groups (ranging from 47.90 to 55.75%) was comparable to that seen in the controls (48.02%).
Pup body weight
There were no definitive test article-related changes in F1 pup weight for the treated groups. Some slight decreases in pup weight were noted at the low- (100 mg/kg/day) and high-dose (1000 mg/kg/day) levels that were statistically different from controls (in males and both sexes combined). However, as the values in the low- and high-dose groups were similar in magnitude and as the values for the 600 mg/kg/day treated animals were comparable to the controls, a clear dose response relationship could not be established.
Pup macroscopic
During the macroscopic, external evaluation of the F1 pups (unscheduled stillborn, unscheduled found dead, and scheduled), there were no test article-related findings noted in the treatment groups, as compared to controls. One male pup at 100 and 300 mg/kg/day each were identified with a scabbed area of the hindlimb and discolored skin, respectively. One female pup at 300 and 600 mg/kg/day each were found with a scabbed face and discolored skin, respectively. The remaining pups were all within normal limits.

Test Guidance
OECD Guideline No. 421
Method and material
This study was conducted to generate limited information concerning the effects of the test article on male and female reproductive performance such as gonadal function, mating behaviour, conception, development of the conceptus, and parturition. Four treatment groups of twelve CD® [Crl:CD®(SD)] rats/sex/group were administered the test article at dose levels of 100, 300, 600, or 1000 mg/kg/day at dose volumes of 0.4, 1.2, 2.4, or 4.0 mL/kg, respectively. One additional group of twelve animals/sex served as the control and received the vehicle, peanut oil (arachis oil NF) at a dose volume of 4.0 mL/kg. The vehicle or test article was administered to all groups once daily via oral gavage. The males were dosed for 43 days, beginning 14 days prior to pairing. Dosing of the females began 14 days prior to pairing, through the mating period, up to and including Lactation Day (LD) 3.
Observations of the parental (P0) animals included clinical signs, body weights and body weight change, and food consumption during the premating/mating, gestation, and lactation periods, and parturition and litter data. Observations of the offspring (F1) included survival at birth and during lactation, individual pup body weights, and gross abnormalities. At study termination, necropsy examinations were performed on all P0 animals, and organs and tissues were collected, weighed and examined for select groups. On LD 4, surviving F1 pups were examined externally, euthanized, and discarded.
The analytical evaluation of the formulation samples confirmed that they were homogenous and at the targeted concentration required. Control samples were devoid of test article.
Results
Oral administration of the test article to male and female rats at 100, 300, 600, and 1000 mg/kg/day in males during the premating/mating and postmating periods did not reveal any test article-related changes. This included parameters consisting of P0 clinical findings, body weight, body weight change, and food consumption. In addition, reproductive, fertility, parturition, and F1 litter data, including external pup observations, as well as P0 gross necropsy findings, organ weights, and microscopic findings did not reveal any changes that could be considered treatment related.
Based on the results obtained from this oral reproductive/developmental toxicity screening study in rats, a No-Observed-Adverse-Effect-Level (NOAEL) for general, reproductive, and developmental toxicity was considered to be 1000 mg/kg/day, the highest level tested and the limit dose designated by the guideline.
Conclusions
In accordance with CLP EC Regulation No. 1272/2008, the test material is not classified for reproductive toxicity.
