Vagina - Postmortem examinations (offspring):
- Where practicable, animals F1 pups found dead or killed were sexed, and then checked for the presence of milk in the stomach and for the presence of any externally visible abnormalities discarded. Any abnormal pups were fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin. Externally normal pups were discarded.
- Statistics:
- Where required to assist with interpretation, tests were applied to determine the statistical significance of observed differences between Control and groups receiving test item. All statistical tests were two-sided and performed at the 5% significance level using in house software. Pairwise comparisons were only performed against the control group.
Body weight and food consumption (prior to mating), haematology, coagulation, clinical chemistry and selected FOB and motor activity data was analysed for homogeneity of variance using the ‘F Max' test. If the group variances appeared homogeneous, a parametric ANOVA was used and pairwise comparisons were made using Fisher’s F protected LSD method via Student's t test ie pairwise comparisons were made only if the overall F test was significant. If the variances were heterogeneous, log or square root transformations were used in an attempt to stabilise the variances. If the variances remained heterogeneous, then a Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric ANOVA was used and pairwise comparisons were made using chi squared protection (via z tests, the non-parametric equivalent of Student's t test).
Organ weight data was analysed as above, and by analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) using terminal body weight as the covariate. - Reproductive indices:
- The following reproductive indices were evaluated:
For each group:
Fertility Index (male) = Number siring a litter
Number paired
Fertility Index (female) = Number pregnant
Number paired
Gestation Index = Number bearing live pups

- For each litter and group:
Birth Index = Total number of pups born (live and dead)
Number of implantation scars
Live Birth Index = Number of pups live on Day 0 of lactation
Total number born (live and dead)
Viability Index = Number of pups live on Day 4 of lactation
Number live on Day 0

Details on results (P0)
There were 9 female animals found dead or prematurely euthanised either in late gestation or early lactation (between Day 22 of gestation and Day 2 of lactation). Although a definitive cause of death could not be established for many of these animals, the distribution of the deaths; 2/10, 4/10, 1/10 and 2/10 (0, 30, 75 and 125 mg/kg/day, respectively) indicated that they were not related to the test item.
Clincal Signs:
Excess salivation was noted post dose in animals receiving the test item. This sign was transient and was considered not to be adverse.
Mating Performance, Fertility and Duration of Gestation and Litter Size:
Mating performance, fertility indices, corpora lutea counts, implantation counts, and the duration of gestation, were similar between Control females and those receiving the test item.
The birth and the live birth indices were notably lower than Control in the 30 mg/kg/day dose group (both 83% versus 98 and 99% respectively in Control); whilst the live birth index was also notably lower in the 125 mg/kg/day dose group (86% versus 99% in Control). The mean number of pups born per litter and the mean number of live pups born per litter were notably lower than Control in the 30 mg/kg/day dose group (both 0.76X Control mean); however these indices were only slightly lower than Control in the 75 and 125 mg/kg/day dose groups (lowest value 0.90X Control mean).
Given the absence of a clear dose response relationship in these indices, the changes were considered to be incidental.
Organ Weights:
Absolute mean liver weights were higher than Control in males at all dose levels (1.11X, 1.06X and 1.13X Control mean, at 30, 75 and 125 mg/kg/day, respectively. In females, absolute mean liver weights were slightly higher than Control at 75 and 125 mg/kg/day (1.06X and 1.08X Control mean, respectively).
Absolute mean kidney weights were higher than Control in males at all dose levels (1.08X, 1.08X and 1.19X Control mean, at 30, 75 and 125 mg/kg/day, respectively). There were no clear differences between the kidney weights of females receiving the test item and Control females.
Histopathology:
In the liver minimal or mild centrilobular hypertrophy of hepatocytes was present in 4/5 males and 5/5 females at 125 mg/kg/day.
In comparison to Control there was a moderate or marked increase in intraepithelial hyaline droplets in the cortical tubules in the kidneys of males at125 mg/kg/day. Associated with the droplets were minimal single cell necrosis of the tubular epithelium, an increase in the incidence and severity of foci of basophilic (regenerating) tubules and, in 2/5 animals, granular casts at the cortico-medullary junction. These findings were considered to be consistent with a diagnosis of ‘hyaline-droplet nephropathy’ caused by an overload of the male rat specific protein alpha-2-microglobulin.

Details on results (F1)
There was a notable number of litter losses in this study; 2/8, 2/6, 1/9 and 3/9 of surviving females receiving 0, 30, 75 and 125 mg/kg/day, respectively. Animal 79 (125 mg/kg/day) suffered a litter loss on Day 0 of lactation and was subsequently prematurely euthanised on Day 2 of lactation (see Section 12.2). Similarly, viability was notably low 66%, 74%, 87% and 63% at 0, 30, 75 and 125 mg/kg/day, respectively. These values were below the lower range of the historical control data (79%) in all but the 75 mg/kg/day dose group. Given the absence of a clear dose response relationship in these indices the changes were considered to be incidental.
Mean litter weights were slightly lower than Control on Day 1 of lactation at 30 mg/kg/day (81% of Control), but mean pup weights were similar to Control and it was considered that the difference in mean litter weights were a consequence of the smaller litter sizes in the 30 mg/kg/day dose group. Mean litter and pup weights were similar between Control and the 75 and 125 mg/kg/day dose groups.
Observations among Dams/Pups:
The type and distribution of observations amongst dams and their litters during lactation did not indicate any association with the test item.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study, the parental, reproductive and neonatal NOAELwas considered to be 125 mg/kg bw/day.
- Executive summary:
A combined repeated dose toxicity study with the reproduction / developmental toxicity screening test was conducted to determine the toxicity to reproduction and/or development of test substance, according to OECD Guideline 422, in compliance with GLP. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomised into 3 test groups and one Control group, each containing 10 males and 10 females. Males were treated by oral gavage at doses from 30, 75 and 125 mg/kg bw/day for 2 weeks prior to mating, then through mating, until the day prior to necropsy (4 weeks of treatment). Females were treated with the same doses for 2 weeks prior to mating, then through mating, gestation and until at least Day 4 of lactation (ca. 6 weeks of treatment). The following parameters and end points were evaluated in this study: clinical signs, body weights, food consumption, ophthalmology, detailed functional tests and observations, reproductive parameters (mating and pregnancy performance, fertility, maternal care and pup performance), clinical pathology parameters (haematology, coagulation and clinical chemistry), organ weights, and gross and microscopic pathological examinations. Refer to the repeated dose section for details on general systemic parameters.
There were no test substance-related effects on mating, pregnancy performance, fertility or maternal care and pup performance (litter survival and pup weights). It should be noted that there were high absolute numbers of litter losses (2/8, 2/6, 1/9 and 3/9 of surviving females at 0, 30, 75 and 125 mg/kg bw/day, respectively) and low viability rates (66%, 74%, 87% and 63% at 0, 30, 75 and 125 mg/kg bw/day, respectively); however the distribution of these findings indicated no clear relationship to the test substance. Centrilobular hypertrophy of hepatocytes in the livers of high dose animals was considered to be test substance-related but not adverse. The histopathological findings in the kidneys of high dose males were consistent with a diagnosis of hyaline-droplet nephropathy, and this effect has been determined to be not relevant to humans. There occurred some mortality among pregnant females, but as this was also seen in the control group and was not associated with a dose-response relationship, it was not considered test-substance related. Therefore, under the conditions of this study, and based on the lack of human relevance of findings, the parental, reproductive and neonatal NOAEL was considered to be 125 mg/kg bw/day (Wallace, 2013).
