Description of key information

BMS 217947 -01 was tested for acute oral toxicity on Sprague-Dawley male and female rats, according to EU Test Method B.1 bis (fixed dose procedure) and OECD Test Guideline 423. No deaths were observed on 3 male and 3 female rats at the 200 mg/kg bw dose, while all 3 female rats died at the dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. Based on this, the oral LD50 for the substance was estimated to be 300 - 500 mg/kg bw. This is sufficient to classify the substance as acute toxic, categorty 4, according to CLP. No clinical signs or adverse effects were observed at the 200 mg/kg bw dose level.

A study was carried out on male and female Sprague-Dawley rats to determine the acute dermal (systemic) toxicity potential for substance BMS 217947 -01, according to EU Test Method B3, Part 3 of Directive 92/69/EEC and OECD Test Guideline No 402. None of the 5 male and 5 female rats died when exposed to doses of 200 mg/kg bw and 2000 mg/kg bw. Therefore, the LD50 value for dermal exposure is greater than 2000 mg/kg bw. As a result, the substance is not classified as acute dermal toxic.

A method devlopment trial was conducted on BMS 217947 -01 to determine the perforance of a OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, Section 4, Health Effects. No.436, "Acute Inhalation Toxicity - Acute Toxic Class Method. This study was conducted in order to develop and method for the generation of a suitable test atmosphere. Limitiations to generate a suitable test atmosphere were found and it was concluded that becasue of the intrinsic properties of substance it was not technically possible to determine the inhalation toxicity.
