- Sprague-Dawley
- Sex:
- male/female
- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- TEST ANIMALS
- Sprague Dawley rats, strain: Crl:CD(SD) with appropriate range of bodyweight at study start.
- Source: Charles River (UK) Ltd.
- Age at treatment start: 70 days (approx.).
- Weight at treatment start: Males: minimum 333 g, maximum 384 g,
Females: minimum 227 g, maximum 285 g.
- Housing Inside a barriered rodent facility:
all animals pre-pairing + toxicity subgroups: In groups up to 5 by sex in solid floor polycarbonate cages.
during pairing (1 male+1 female/cage): In RB3 modified polypropylene cages with stainless steel grid-floor over absorbent paper-lined trays
males after pairing: In groups of up to 5 in solid floor polycarbonate cages.
females during gestation and lactation: Females housed individually (+litter) in solid floor polycarbonate cages.
- Bedding material (in solid floor cages): Wood based bedding.
- Cage enrichment: Aspen chew block + plastic shelter (except during pairing or post gestation day 20).
- Diet (ad libitum): Standard rodent diet (SDS VRF1 Certified), pelleted, without chemotherapeutic or prophylactic agent.
- Fasting (diet withheld): Main phase males and Toxicity phase females overnight before blood sampling for clinical pathology.
- Water (ad libitum): Potable drinking water from the public supply.
- Acclimation period: 5 days before treatment start, under laboratory conditions.
Routine analysis of the batch of diet used and water, chew blocks and bedding material did not provide evidence of contamination that might have prejudiced the study.
IN-LIFE DATES:
- Duration of test, males & toxicity phase females: Five weeks
Duration of test, main phase females (i.e. reproductive subgroup): From 14 days prior to pairing to day 7 of lactation.
Duration of test, offspring: From birth to day 7 of lactation.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
Air conditioned room kept at positve pressure without re-circulation of the filtered fresh air supplied to the room.
Controlled environment, environmental conditions were set at:
- Temperature (°C): 21 ± 2°C
- Relative Humidity (%): 40 to 70%
- Photoperiod (artificial lighting): 12 hrs day / 12 hrs night
Deviations from the target ranges for temperature and relative humidity were not evident.
Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- propylene glycol
- Details on oral exposure:
- - Concentration in vehicle: The concentration of the test material in vehicle was 20, 60, and 200 mg/ml.
- Amount (dose volume by gavage): 5 mL/kg bw/day.
Actual dose volumes were calculated at about weekly or shorter intervals accounting for the latest body weight. Litter animals were not dosed. - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- - Quantitative analysis of test material formulations was performed by gravimetry because WS400505 was insoluble in any solvent suitable for chromatography
- Concentrations of the test material formulations were confirmed at each dose level in the first and last week of the study.
- Gravimetric analysis confirmed that the mean concentrations of WS400505 in prepared formulations were within +10%/-15% of the corresponding nominal concentration, thus confirming accuracy of formulation.
- Due to insolubility of WS400505 stability in the vehicle could not be confirmed (but can be assumed based on the chemical composition). - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- - Treatment period, males & toxicity phase females: Daily, for five consecutive weeks, in males commencing 14 days prior to pairing
- Treatment period, main phase females (i.e. reproductive subgroup): approx. 45 days (from 14 days prior to pairing to day 6 of lactation)
- Offspring were not dosed - Frequency of treatment:
- Daily, 7 days/week (during parturition, dosing omitted as appropriate)
Doses / concentrations
- Remarks:
- Doses / Concentrations:
0 (vehicle control), 100, 300, 1000 mg/kg bw/day
Basis:
actual ingested
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- Toxicity phase animals: */ 5 females
Main phase animals (i.e. reproductive subgroups): 10 males / 10 females
*Explanatory note:
Examinations assigned to the toxicity phase females to meet the requirements of a 28-day repeat dose oral toxicity study were also assigned to 5 main phase males per dose group. Therefore, these 5 main phase males per dose group are called also "toxicity subgroup" in the present robust study summary for clarification. After pairing with main phase females, all males were killed at the same time (Week 6). - Control animals:
- yes, concurrent vehicle
- Details on study design:
- This study was conducted to examine both repeated dose toxicity and reproductive/developmental toxicity as an OECD screening combined study
(OECD 422 test guideline). Therefore, animals initially entering the study were divided into toxicity subgroup animals (toxicity phase) and reproductive subgroup animals (main phase), whereby 5 of the 10 F0 males (used for pairing) per dose group formed the toxicity male subgroups.
Dose selection was based on the results of a 7-day preliminary oral toxicity study in the rat in which dose levels of 100, 300 or 1000 mg/kg/day did not have any overt treatment-related effects on young adult animals (females nulliparous and non-pregnant). Accordingly the same dose levels were used in the present OECD 422 combined repeat dose toxicity and reproduction/developmental toxicity screening study. - Positive control:
- Not included in the study.

Histopathology:
- toxicity subgroups: The following organs were microscopically observed for the control and 1000 mg/kg bw/day groups:
Brain, eyes, pituitary gland, thyroid with parathyroids, heart, thymus, liver, spleen, adrenals
kidneys, testes, epididymides, ovaries, lung, trachea, esophagus, stomach, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, caecum, colon, rectum, Peyer's patch, lymph node (axillary, mesenteric), urinary bladder, uterus (with cervix &
oviducts), vagina, spinal cord, sciatic nerve, skeletal muscle, skin with mammary glands, sternum with marrow,
seminal vesicle & coagulation gland, prostate. In addition, any gross lesions from all dose groups
were examined by light microscopy. - Other examinations:
- Reproductive and developmental toxicity parameters (addressed in separate endpoints).
- Statistics:
- Grip strength, motor activity, bodyweight, food consumption, organ weight, blood chemistry and haematology data were statistically analysed by adoption of the following sequence of tests:
- Parametric analysis, if Bartlett's test for variance homogeneity was not significant at the 1% level.
F1 approximate test for monotonicity of dose-response. If this F1 test was not significant at the 1% level, Williams' test for a monotonic trend was applied.
If this F1 test was significant, suggesting that the dose-response was not monotone , the Dunnett's test was performed instead.
- Non-parametric analysis, if Bartlett's test was still significant at the 1% level following logarithmic and square-root transformations.
H1 approximate test for monotonicity of dose-response. If this H1 test was not significant at the 1% level, Shirley's test for a monotonic trend was applied.
-For grip strength, motor activity, and clinical pathology data,
if 75% of the data (across all groups) were the same value, pairwise comparison of each dose group against the control by Fisher’s Exact tests.
-For organ weight data, covariance analysis using terminal bodyweight as covariate (Angervall & Carlstrom, 1963).
For statistical references, see next field.
