Results and discussion
Results: maternal animals
Maternal developmental toxicity
- Details on maternal toxic effects:
- Maternal toxic effects:no effects
Details on maternal toxic effects:
Survival was 100% in the test article-treated group and the control group. There were no biologically meaningful differences in any endpoint observation when compared to controls. Incidental antemortem observations noted in both treated and control groups were hair loss and soft stool. There was no treatment-related effect on maternal body weights relative to controls.

Results (fetuses)
- Details on embryotoxic / teratogenic effects:
- Embryotoxic / teratogenic effects:no effects
Details on embryotoxic / teratogenic effects:
A statistically significant decrease in mean fetal body weight (P<0.05) occurred in the treated group when compared to controls. This mean value was slightly reduced when compared to the mean historical control value, and may be attributable to the increase in total implantations in this group (which was also statistically significant, with p<0.05, and the increase in number of viable fetuses. The mean values for viable fetuses and total implantationsin the control group were slightly reduced when compared to the respective mean historical control, and may account for the statistical significance obeserved in the treated group. There were no biologically meaningful differences in the mean numbers of corpora lutea, postimplantation loss, viable fetuses and the fetal sex distribution when compared to the control group. There were no malformations observed in any fetus in the treated group.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Survival was 100% in the treated group and in the control. There were no treatment-related effects observed with regard to appearance, behavior, mean maternal body weight gain during gestation, postmortem examination at sacrifice, Cesarian section values or the number of litters with malformations and genetic and developmental variations.
Treatment with test article did not produce a teratogenic response when administered orally by gavage to pregnant Charles River COBS(R) CD(R) rats at a dosage level of 250 mg/kg/day. - Executive summary:
Survival was 100% in the treated group and in the control. There were no treatment-related effects observed with regard to appearance, behavior, mean maternal body weight gain during gestation, postmortem examination at sacrifice, Cesarian section values or the number of litters with malformations and genetic and developmental variations.
Treatment with test article did not produce a teratogenic response when administered orally by gavage to pregnant Charles River COBS(R) CD(R) rats at a dosage level of 250 mg/kg/day
