Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- corn oil
- Details on exposure:
- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS: The test substance formulations were weight/volume (test substance/vehicle) mixtures. Formulations were prepared approximately weekly as single formulations for each dosage level, divided into aliquots for daily dispensing and stored refrigerated (2-8ºC).
The test substance formulations were stirred continuously throughout the preparation, sampling and dose administration procedures. The first dosing formulations were visually inspected by the study director and were found to be visibly homogeneous and acceptable for administration.
VEHICLE
- Justification for use and choice of vehicle (if other than water): corn oil
- Concentration in vehicle: 6, 36 and 200 mg/mL (correction factor of 1.159)
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage):
- Lot/batch no. (if required): 028K0044 and 117K0127, - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analytical method which uses ultraviolet (UV) absorbance detection at a wavelength of 235 nm to measure C-4000 concentration in corn oil formulations ranging in concentration from 4.00 to 200 mg/mL.
Duplicate formulation samples were collected using a syringe and dosing cannula and placed in polypropylene tubes. As detailed in the following table, formulation samples were processed by adding ACN and mixing by vortex action. The samples were further diluted with ACN as necessary to achieve a theoretical final concentration of 100 µg C-4000/mL. Aliquots of the diluted samples were transferred to amber autosampler vials for analysis.
The HPLC/UV method used to determine C-4000 concentration in corn oil formulations was validated for the concentration range from 4.00 to 200 mg/mL. Dose formulations of C-4000 in corn oil, prepared at target concentrations of 6, 36 and 200 mg/mL ranged from 94.8% to 103% of nominal, and met the WIL SOP acceptance criteria for test substance concentration. - Details on mating procedure:

- All statistical tests were performed using appropriate computing devices or programs. Analyses were conducted using two-tailed tests (except as noted otherwise) for a minimum significance level of 5%, comparing each test substance-treated group to the control group. Each mean was presented with the standard deviation (S.D.), standard error (S.E.) and the number of animals (N) used to calculate the mean. Data obtained from nongravid animals were excluded from statistical analyses. Due to the different rounding conventions inherent in the types of software used, the means, standard deviations and standard errors on the summary and individual tables may differ by ±1 in the last significant figure. Where applicable, the litter was used as the experimental unit.
Mean maternal body weights (absolute and net), body weight changes (absolute and net) and food consumption, gravid uterine weights, numbers of corpora lutea, implantation sites and viable fetuses, and fetal body weights (separately by sex and combined) were subjected to a parametric one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) (Snedecor and Cochran, 1980) to determine intergroup differences. If the ANOVA revealed significant (p<0.05) intergroup variance, Dunnett's test (Dunnett, 1964) was used to compare the test substance-treated groups to the control group. Mean litter proportions (percent per litter) of prenatal data (viable and nonviable fetuses, early and late resorptions, total resorptions, pre- and postimplantation loss, and fetal sex distribution), total fetal malformations and developmental variations (external, visceral, skeletal and combined) and each particular
external, visceral and skeletal malformation or variation were subjected to the Kruskal-Wallis nonparametric ANOVA test (Kruskal and Wallis, 1952) to determine intergroup differences. If the ANOVA revealed significant (p<0.05) intergroup variance, Dunn’s test (Dunn, 1964) was used to compare the test substance-treated groups to the control group. - Indices:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Oral administration of the test material, C-4000, by gavage to pregnant Crl:CD(SD) rats produced no evidence of treatment-related developmental toxicity or maternal toxicity at any dose in this study. A dosage level of 1000 mg/kg/day, the highest dosage level evaluated, was the no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) for maternal and prenatal developmental toxicity.
- Executive summary:
The objective of the study was to determine the potential of C-4000 to induce developmental toxicity after maternal exposure via the oral route during the critical period of organogenesis, to characterize maternal toxicity at the exposure levels tested and to determine the no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) for maternal toxicity and developmental toxicity.
The test substance, C-4000, in the vehicle, corn oil, was administered orally by gavage to 3 groups of 25 bred female Crl:CD(SD) rats once daily on gestation days 6 through 19. Dosage levels were 30, 180 and 1000 mg/kg/day administered at a dosage volume of 5 mL/kg. The doses were prepared using a correction factor for purity (1.159). A concurrent control group of 25 females received the vehicle (corn oil) on an identical regimen. The females were approximately 13 weeks of age at the initiation of dose administration. All animals were observed twice daily for mortality and moribundity. Clinical observations, body weights and food consumption were recorded at appropriate intervals. On gestation day 20, a laparohysterectomy was performed on each surviving female. The uteri, placentae and ovaries were examined, and the numbers of fetuses, early and late resorptions, total implantations and corpora lutea were recorded. Gravid uterine weights were recorded, and net body weights and net body weight changes were calculated. The fetuses were weighed, sexed and examined for external, visceral and skeletal malformations and developmental variations.
One female in the control group was euthanized in extremis following body weight loss and minimal food consumption. All other females survived to the scheduled necropsy; there were no test substance-related internal findings at any dosage level. Additionally, there were no adverse clinical findings noted for females in any group at the daily examinations, at the time of dosing or approximately 1 hour following dose administration. Mean maternal body weights, body weight gains and food consumption were unaffected by test substance administration. Intrauterine growth and survival of fetuses were unaffected by test substance administration at all dosage levels. No test substance-related fetal morphological malformations or developmental variations were noted for any fetus in this study.
Oral administration of the test material, C-4000, by gavage to pregnant Crl:CD(SD) rats produced no evidence of treatment-related developmental toxicity or maternal toxicity at any dose in this study. A dosage level of 1000 mg/kg/day, the highest dosage level evaluated, was the no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) for maternal and prenatal developmental toxicity.
