All criteria for a valid study as described in the protocol were met. C-4000 was negative in the CHO/HGPRT Mutation Assay under the conditions of this study. - Executive summary:
The test article, C-4000, was tested in the CHO/HGPRT Mutation Assay in the absence and presence of metabolic activation using Aroclor-induced rat liver S9. The preliminary toxicity assay was used to establish the concentration range for the initial mutagenesis assay. The initial and independent repeat mutagenesis assays were used to evaluate the mutagenic potential of the test article.
Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was chosen as the solvent for the test article based on information from the Sponsor and compatibility with the target cells. The test article was soluble in DMSO at a concentration of 500 mg/mL, the maximum concentration prepared for the preliminary toxicity assay.
In the preliminary toxicity assay, the maximum concentration of C-4000 (Lot51V034K7)tested was 5000 µg/mL. There was visible precipitate in the treatment medium at concentrations ≥ 50 µg/mL. Selection of concentrations for the mutagenesis assay was based on the cloning efficiency relative to the solvent control and precipitation profile. No substantial toxicity, i.e., cloning efficiency ≤ 50% of the solvent control, was observed with or without S9 activation. Based on these findings, the concentrations chosen for the mutagenesis assay ranged from 2.5 to 50 µg/mL for both the non-activated and S9-activated cultures.
In the initial mutagenesis assay, no positive responses, i.e., treated cultures with mutant frequencies >40 mutants per 106 clonable cells, were observed. Visible precipitate was observed in treatment medium at 50 µg/mL. No toxicity, i.e., cloning efficiency ≤50% of the solvent control, was observed.
In the independent repeat assay, no positive responses were observed. Visible precipitate was observed in treatment medium at 50 µg/mL. No toxicity was observed.
C-4000 was negative in the CHO/HGPRT Mutation Assay under the conditions of this study.
