Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
no
Duration of treatment / exposure:
7 days
Frequency of treatment:
Once daily for up to 7 consecutive days, approximately the same time each day with a maximum of 6 hours difference between the earliest and latest dose. Animals were dosed up to the day prior to necropsy.

Details on study design:
Male and female Wistar Han rats, approximately 9 weeks of age on study Day 1, were
administered PF-06460246 via oral gavage daily for at least 7 consecutive days.

Examinations

Observations and examinations performed and frequency:
Mortality / Viability: At least twice daily.
Clinical signs: At least once daily from start of treatment onwards, detailed clinical
observations were made in all animals. The time of onset, grade and
duration of any observed signs were recorded. Signs were graded for
severity and the maximum grade was predefined at 3 or 4. Grades were
coded as slight (grade 1), moderate (grade 2), severe (grade 3) and very
severe (grade 4). For certain signs, only its presence (grade 1) or
absence (grade 0) was scored. In the data tables, the scored grades are
reported, as well as the percentage of animals affected in summary
tables.
Body weights: On Days 1, 4 and 7.
Food consumption: Over Days 1-4 and 4-7.
Water consumption: Subjective appraisal was maintained during the study, but no quantitative
investigation introduced as no effect was suspected.
Sacrifice and pathology:
Animals showing pain, distress or discomfort, which is considered not transient in nature or is likely to become more severe, will be sacrificed for humane reasons based on OECD guidance
document on humane endpoints (ENV/JM/MONO/ 2000/7). The time of death will be recorded as precisely as possible.

Animals surviving to the end of the observation period and all moribund animals will be deeply anaesthetized using isoflurane. Blood samples for clinical laboratory investigations will be drawn from
the retro-orbital sinus of all rats/sex/group (for details see par 4.7.) immediately prior to sacrifice.

All organ and tissue samples, as defined under Histopathology (following), were processed, embedded in paraffin wax (Klinipath, Duiven, The Netherlands) and cut at a thickness of 2-4 micrometers and stained with haematoxylin and eosin (Klinipath, Duiven, The Netherlands).
Statistics:
A descriptive statistical analysis was performed (mean, SD and/or median).

Results and discussion

Results of examinations

Clinical signs:
no effects observed
Description (incidence and severity):
No clinical signs of toxicity were noted during the observation period.
Mortality:
no mortality observed
Description (incidence):
No mortality occurred during the study period.
Body weight and weight changes:
no effects observed
Description (incidence and severity):
Body weights and body weight gain of male animals remained in the same range as controls over the study period.
Slight weight loss was observed for one high dose male and one low dose and two high dose females. Based on this low incidence and severity and the absence of a clear dose relation, this finding was considered to be of no toxicological significance.
Food consumption and compound intake (if feeding study):
no effects observed
Description (incidence and severity):
Food consumption before or after allowance for body weight was similar between treated and control animals.
Food efficiency:
not examined
Water consumption and compound intake (if drinking water study):
not examined
Ophthalmological findings:
not examined
Haematological findings:
no effects observed
Description (incidence and severity):
Haematological parameters of treated rats were considered not to have been affected by treatment.
Clinical biochemistry findings:
no effects observed
Description (incidence and severity):
Clinical biochemistry parameters of treated rats were considered not to have been affected by treatment.
Urinalysis findings:
not examined
Behaviour (functional findings):
no effects observed
Immunological findings:
not examined
Organ weight findings including organ / body weight ratios:
no effects observed
Description (incidence and severity):
Test item-related absolute and relative lower adrenal glands weights (22 and 21% decrease compared to mean control values, respectively) were noted in males at 1000 mg/kg. Since no macro- or
microscopic correlates were noted in these animals, this was considered to be a non-adverse finding.
There were no other test item-related organ weight changes.
Gross pathological findings:
not examined
Neuropathological findings:
not examined
Histopathological findings: non-neoplastic:
not examined
Histopathological findings: neoplastic:
not examined
Other effects:
no effects observed
Description (incidence and severity):
Macroscopic examination: Necropsy did not reveal any toxicologically relevant alterations.
Microscopic examination: There were no microscopic findings recorded which could be attributed to treatment with the test
substance. All microscopic findings were within the range of background pathology encountered in Wistar rats of
this age and strain and occurred at similar incidences and severity in both control and treated rats.
Details on results:
No toxicologically relevant changes were noted in clinical appearance, functional observations, body
weight, food consumption, clinical laboratory investigations, organ weights, macroscopic examination
and microscopic examination.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
