Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- corn oil
- Details on exposure:
- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS:
The test substance, MPKO, was prepared for administration as a series of graded concentrations in the vehicle, by dilution of individual weigthings of the test substance. Small amounts of vehicle were added to the test substance and mixed until a solution was formed. This was made up to the required volume with vehicle and then magnetically stirred until homogenous. The test substance was used as supplied. All formulations were prepared weekly and stored refrigerated before use.
VEHICLE
- Concentration in vehicle: 7.5, 25, 75 mg/mL
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 2 mL/kg bw - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- Before treatment commenced, the suitability of the proposed mixing procedure was determined and specimen formulations were analysed to assess the homogeneity and stability of the test material in the liquid matrix. Specimen formulations (typically 400 mL) were prepared at concentrations of 1 mg/mL and 100 mg/mL and equally split between four amber screw-capped bottles. Prior to initial sampling on each day, the formulation was mixed by 20-fold inversion. A control vehicle sample was stored with each batch of stability samples. The stability was confirmed for at least 24 hours at ambient temperature and for up to 15 days when refrigerated (2-8¿C).
Samples of each formulation prepared for administration on the first and last occasion of treatment were analysed for achieved concentration of the test substance. Four samples were taken (nominally 1 mL accurately weighed) from all groups. Two of the samples from each group were analysed. The remainder were retained as contingency for analysis if any result required confirmation. - Details on mating procedure:
- - Impregnation procedure: cohoused
- If cohoused:
- M/F ratio per cage: 1:1
- Length of cohabitation: maximum of 2 weeks
- Further matings after two unsuccessful attempts: no
- Verification of same strain and source of both sexes: yes
- Proof of pregnancy: vaginal plug / sperm in vaginal smear referred to as day 0 of pregnancy
- Any other deviations from standard protocol: No - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- The test substance, MPKO, was administered for two weeks before pairing up to necropsy (at least five weeks) for males and two weeks before pairing then throughout pairing and gestation until Day 6 of lactation for females. Recovery animals were treated for approximately six weeks and completed a further 14 days without treatment.
Animals of the F1 generation were not dosed. - Frequency of treatment:
- All animals were dosed once each day at approximately the same time each day, seven days per week.

- Details on study design:
- Ten males and 10 females per group were treated for two weeks at dose levels of 15, 50 or 150 mg/kg/day before pairing. Treatment continued to a total of at least 5 weeks. A control group of 10 male and 10 female rats received the vehicle, corn oil, at the same volume-dose throughout the same period. Males were killed after at least 5 weeks of treatment and females were killed on Day 7 of lactation.
Recovery, over 14 days without treatment, was assessed in five of the control and five of the high dose males and in an extra five unmated females in the same groups which were treated for 6 weeks before start of recovery.
The F1 generation received no direct administration of the test substance; any exposure was in utero or via the milk.
During the study, clinical condition, detailed physical and arena observations, sensory reactivity, grip strength, motor activity, bodyweight, food consumption, gestation length and parturition observations, haematology, blood chemistry, organ weight, macropathology and histopathology investigations were undertaken. The clinical condition, litter size and survival, sex ratio and bodyweight of all offspring were assessed.

- Description (incidence and severity):
- Treatment with MPKO at 50 and 150 mg/kg/day was associated with major adverse effects upon the red blood cells and the following changes were attributed to treatment. Males and females receiving 50 and 150 mg/kg/day showed low haematocrit and haemoglobin levels, low red blood cell counts, high reticulocytes and low mean cell haemoglobin concentrations, and for males only at those dose levels high mean cell volumes. A dose relationship was also apparent. The high mean cell volume in females was restricted to those receiving 150 mg/kg/day. High mean cell haemoglobin levels and high platelet levels in males and females receiving 150 mg/kg/day were also evident.
After the 14 day off dose period many of the parameters noted to be different to control during treatment had shown complete recovery. Those changes which had not completely resolved included high mean cell haemoglobin level, low mean cell haemoglobin concentration and high mean cell volumes for males previously receiving 150 mg/kg/day, low red blood cell counts, high mean cell haemoglobin level and high mean cell volume for females previously receiving the same dose. - Clinical biochemistry findings:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- High bilirubin concentrations were recorded for males and females at 50 and 150 mg/kg/day during the week 2 of the treatment period. There was a suggestion of an increase in potassium and phosphorus in males receiving 150 mg/kg/day. Total protein was low for males attaining statistical significance for those receiving 50 and 150 mg/kg/day and albumin for males at 150 mg/kg/day was also low. Females receiving 150 mg/kg/day had a high Albumin/Globulin ratio.
The affected parameters were similar to control following two weeks of recovery. - Urinalysis findings:
- not examined
- Behaviour (functional findings):
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- NEUROBEHAVIOUR
Sensory reactivity findings and grip strength values for males and females were unaffected by treatment with MPKO.
There was no effect of MPKO on motor activity scores. - Immunological findings:
- not examined
- Organ weight findings including organ / body weight ratios:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Adjusted mean spleen weight was higher than Control in males and females receiving 50 or 150 mg/kg/day (X1.6 or X3.2 of Control for males and X1.3 and X2.5 of Control for females) with a dose response evident. In females receiving 150 mg/kg/day there was a slight increase in adjusted mean heart weight (X1.1 of Control).
After 14 days recovery, the spleen weights were still slightly higher than Control values for males and females which had received 150 mg/kg/day (X1.5 for males and X1.2 for females of Control); although no statistical significance was attained for females, and the values were lower than the main study animals. The heart weights of females receiving 150 mg/kg/day were similar to control values. Kidney weights were slightly higher than Control after the recovery period in males that had received 150 mg/kg/day (X1.1 of Control) this was not seen in the main phase animals. - Gross pathological findings:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- GROSS PATHOLOGY
Enlarged spleen was seen in all males and females treated with 150 mg/kg/day and in three out of 10 males treated with 50 mg/kg/day. Dark colouration of the spleen was also seen in all males and females treated with 150 mg/kg/day, in nine out of 10 males and females treated with 50 mg/kg/day and in one out of 10 males treated with 15 mg/kg/day.
Dark colouration of the kidneys (left and right) was seen in nine females treated with 150 mg/kg/day and in three females treated with 50 mg/kg/day.
After the recovery period, dark colouration of the spleen was seen in three males and two females treated with 150 mg/kg/day - Neuropathological findings:
- not examined
- Histopathological findings: non-neoplastic:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- HISTOPATHOLOGY: NON-NEOPLASTIC
Spleen: Haemosiderosis was observed in males and females treated at 15, 50 and 150 mg/kg/day. Congestion was also seen in males and females treated at 50 and 150 mg/kg/day. An increase in the incidence of extramedullary haemopoiesis was also observed in males and females treated at 150 mg/kg/day. These changes revealed dose-relationship.
Liver: Extramedullary haemopoiesis was observed in males and females treated at 50 and 150 mg/kg/day.
After Recovery Period:
Spleen: An increase in the severity of haemosiderosis was observed in males and females previously treated at 150 mg/kg/day. A decrease in severity of congestion was also observed in males previously treated at 150 mg/kg/day - Histopathological findings: neoplastic:

MATING PERFORMANCE AND FERTILITY
Percentage mating, conception rate and fertility index scores for all groups were 100%.
GESTATION LENGTH, PARTURITION, AND GESTATION INDEX
Gestation length was within the expected range for this strain for of rat at these laboratories. Two females, one each receiving 50 and 150 mg/kg/day, found to have implantation scars at necropsy on Day 25 of gestation but were not observed to give birth either due to total litter resorption or cannibalising pups born overnight prior to the first check of the day: a relationship to treatment is not inferred.

Field "Fetal/pup body weight changes" (Path: ENDPOINT_STUDY_RECORD.DevelopmentalToxicityTeratogenicity.ResultsAndDiscussion.ResultsFetuses.FetalPupBodyWeightChanges): no effects observed - Reduction in number of live offspring:
- not specified
- Description (incidence and severity):
- the post implantation survival was slightly low in females receiving 50 or 150 mg/kg/day; this is attributed to the single female which failed to litter at each dose level. Offspring survival up to Day 7 of age was unaffected by parental treatment.
- Changes in sex ratio:
- no effects observed
- Changes in litter size and weights:
- effects observed, non-treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- There were considered to be no treatment related effects on the number of implantations. The total litter sizes on Day 1 and live litter sizes on Days 1, 4 and 7 were similar to control values.
The mean number of implantations appeared low in 50 and 150 mg/kg/day treatment groups but this was largely due to 2 females. One female receiving 50 mg/kg/day failed to litter; at necropsy six implantations were apparent in the left uterine horn, five were early resorptions and one was a placenta only. There were no signs at parturition checks that this female gave birth, though she may have produced a single pup overnight and cannibalised it prior to the morning checks. Another female receiving 150 mg/kg/day also failed to litter; at necropsy one dead fetus was apparent in the right uterine horn. It is not unusual for females with very low litter sizes to fail to produce a live litter and the two females affected here are not attributed to treatment. - Changes in postnatal survival:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The NOEL for MPKO was considered to be 150 mg/kg bw/day since no effects were observed on the developmental screening parameters up to the highest dose tested.
- Executive summary:
The systemic toxic potential and effects on reproduction were assessed in rats following oral administration of the test substance MPKO for at least five weeks in accordance with OECD Guideline 422. 10 animals per sex and per group were treated for two weeks at dose levels of 15, 50 or 150 mg/kg bw/day before pairing. Treatment continued to a total of at least 5 weeks. A control group of 10 animals per sex received the vehicle, corn oil, at the same volume-dose throughout the same period. Males were killed after at least 5 weeks of treatment and females were killed on Day 7 of lactation. Recovery, over 14 days without treatment, was assessed in 5 of the control and 5 of the high dose males and in an extra 5 unmated females in the same groups which were treated for 6 weeks before start of recovery. During the study, clinical condition, detailed physical and arena observations, sensory reactivity, grip strength, motor activity, bodyweight, food consumption, gestation length and parturition observations, haematology, blood chemistry, organ weight, macropathology and histopathology investigations were undertaken. The clinical condition, litter size and survival, sex ratio and bodyweight of all offspring were assessed. The results observed in this study showed effects of MPKO assessed by haematology, organ weights and macroscopic appearance at dose levels of 50 mg/kg bw/day and above and microscopic tissue appearance were observed at dose levels of 15 mg/kg bw/day and above. After two weeks off dose complete recovery was seen in many clinical pathology parameters and recovery was in progress but not complete in males for high mean cell haemoglobin level, low mean cell haemoglobin concentration and high mean cell volume and in females low red blood cell counts, high mean cell haemoglobin level and high mean cell volume, organ weights, macroscopic and microscopic appearance. There were no adverse effects of treatment on the reproductive/developmental screening parameters assessed at least 150 mg/kg/day. The NOAEL for MPKO was considered to be 15 mg/kg bw/day for general systemic toxicity. The NOEL for reproductive and developmental screening parameters was considered to be 150 mg/kg bw/day.
