Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
No repeated dose toxicity data is available for ATMP-N-oxide-5K. Therefore, data have been read across from the category member, ATMP-H.
In a well conducted key chronic toxicity/carcinogenicity study, conducted according to a protocol similar to OECD Test Guideline 453 but prior to GLP, ATMP-H was administered via the diet to Long-Evans rats at dose levels of 50, 150 or 500 mg/kg bw/day for 24 months. The NOAEL for carcinogenicity and general toxicity was concluded to be ≥500 mg/kg bw/day, the highest dose tested. (BioDynamics Inc., 1979c).

Additional information
No repeated dose toxicity data is available for ATMP-N-oxide-5K. Therefore, data have been read across from the category member, ATMP-H.
In the key chronic toxicity and carcinogenicity study, conducted according to a protocol similar to OECD Test Guideline 453 but prior to GLP, ATMP-H was administered via the diet to Long-Evans rats (70/sex/dose) at dose levels of 50, 150 or 500 mg/kg bw/day (groups II to IV) for 24 months. Control animals received untreated diet (Group I). Animals were regularly observed for clinical signs of toxicity and body weights and food consumption were measured. Interim necropsies were performed at 6 and 12 months (10/sex/dose). Ophthalmoscopic examination, haematology, clinical chemistry and urinalysis were performed at months 3, 6, 12, 18 and 24. Histopathological examinations were conducted on all animals that died or had to be killed in extremis. In addition, histopathological examinations were conducted for 10 animals/sex for groups I and IV at 6 months and for all survivors in Groups I and IV at 24 months. The mean body weight values for the high dose males were slightly reduced (5-10%) from week 16 to 87. Mean food consumption values for the high dose males were generally comparable to or greater than those of the control group (3-17%) during most weeks. In the high dose group, statistically significant changes to organ weights occurred (adrenal glands, spleen, liver, pituitary). No treatment-related gross lesions or histopathological findings occurred in any of the groups. The NOAEL for carcinogenicity and general toxicity was concluded to be ≥500 mg/kg bw/day (BioDynamics Inc., 1979c).
In a supporting 14-day repeated dose toxicity study, conducted prior to OECD Test Guidelines and GLP, (reliability score 4) the NOAEL for the test substance tested was concluded to be ≥10000 ppm in rats (Industrial Biotest Laboratories Inc., 1972). ATMP-H was administered to albino rats (5/sex/dose) for 14 days at dietary levels of 100, 300, 1000, 3000, 10000, and 30000 ppm.
All rats fed 30000 ppm had significantly reduced body weight gains compared with the controls. This reduced weight gain coincided with significantly reduced food consumption. One male from the 100 ppm group died early in the treatment period, but the death was not attributed to treatment. One male from the 30000 ppm dietary level died during the investigation, and three males from this dose level showed general body redness, especially in the areas of the ears and scrotum, where swelling also occurred. Five animals were sacrificed one male and female control, one male and female from the 30000 ppm group, and one male from the 10000 ppm group. All tissues and organs from each animal were normal, except for an enlarged spleen in the 30000 ppm male.
In another supporting repeated dose toxicity study, conducted prior to the adoption of OECD Test Guidelines and GLP, ATMP-H was administered to groups of albino rats (15/sex/dose) at dietary levels of 600, 2000 or 6000 ppm for 90 days. Control animals received untreated diet. Five deaths occurred during the study, one of which was a result of respiratory infection, and the others resulted from trauma incurred during collection of blood samples. There were no effects on the body weights, food consumption, haematology parameters, clinical chemistry, urinalysis parameters, macroscopic findings and no treatment-related histopathological findings. There was a statistically significant decrease in the liver weights for males and females of the high and mid dose group. The difference was less than 20% in the high dose males, 10% in the high dose females and less than 10% in the mid dose females. In the absence of histopathological findings, it was concluded that these findings were of questionable significance. Therefore, the NOAEL was concluded to be ≥6000 ppm (Industrial Biotest Laboratories Inc., 1973).
In a supporting dose range finder for a carcinogenicity study, conducted prior to OECD Test Guidelines and GLP, a NOAEL was concluded to be ≥1000 mg/kg bw/day. This was based on no observed statistically significant findings in mortality, body weight, food consumption, necropsy or clinical signs (BioDynamics Inc., 1976).
