Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- A NOAEL of 100 mg/kg was established based on adverse morphological changes in the urinary bladder and kidneys, which were minimal to slight in males only at 300 mg/kg. The relevance of these findings to humans is unknown. Given the adverse effects observed, incidence, dose level, study duration, and unknown relevance to humans, the GHS criteria for classification under specific target organ toxicity (STOT) have not been met.
- Executive summary:
In this GLP Combined 28-Day Repeated Dose Toxicity Study with the Reproduction/Developmental Toxicity Screening Test, conducted in accordance with OECD guideline 422 with male and femal Wister (Han) rats by oral gavage at doses of 0 (vehicle only), 100, 300, and 1000 mg/kg-bw/day, a NOAEL of 100 mg/kg was established based on adverse morphological changes in the urinary bladder and kidneys.
At 1000 mg/kg, adverse histopathological changes in the urinary bladder consisted of urothelial hypertrophy in both sexes.This finding was considered adverse based on its hyperplastic nature. Adverse renal findings at this dose consisted of an increased incidence and/or severity of tubular basophilia and dilation in the kidneys of both sexes and renal tubular casts in males. For males, tubular dilation correlated with macroscopic pale discolouration and with an increase in kidney weight. Higher urea and creatinine were measured for both sexes and were also attributed to the observed renal lesions.This combination of findings was considered to be adverse at 1000 mg/kg for both sexes.
At 300 mg/kg, adverse urothelial hypertrophy of the urinary bladder was present in males only.
Other non-adverse renal changes were recorded in females at 100 and 300 mg/kg. Minimal degrees of tubular dilation in females at 100 and 300 mg/kg were considered to be within normal limits. Tubular basophilia was recorded in females at 100 mg/kg at minimal degree and at slight degree in females at 300mg/kg. These occurred in the absence of other supportive adverse related renal changes at these dose levels and as such were not considered adverse.
At 1000 mg/kg, serum levels of T4 in F0 males were reduced by approximately 50% compared to control values. This marked reduction of total T4 occurred in the absence of corroborating changes in either organ weight or morphology of the thyroid gland. Given the magnitude of the observed decrease in total T4, it was considered to represent a compound- related effect. However, possible adversity of this effect could not be assessed within this type of screening study and was therefore not taken into account when determining the parental NOAEL.
Given the adverse effects observed, incidence, dose levels, study duration, unknown relevance to humand, and the resulting NOAEL of 100 mg/kg, the GHS criteria for classification under specific target organ toxicity (STOT) were not met.
