Test animals
- Species:
- rat
- Strain:
- Wistar
- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Rat Crl:WI(Han) (outbred, SPF-Quality) from Charles River, Sulzfeld, Germany
- Age at study initiation: Age at start of pairing: approximately 12 weeks. Females were nulliparous and non-pregnant at initiation of the study. Stock male rats Crl:WI(Han) (outbred, SPF-Quality) were used for mating with the females. After mating these males were placed back in their stock and might be used in further studies.
- Weight at study initiation: No data
- Fasting period before study: No data
- Housing:
* Pre-mating: During acclimatization, females were housed in groups of 5 animals/cage in Macrolon cages (MIV type, height 18 cm). Acclimatization period was at least 5 days prior to pairing under laboratory conditions.
* Mating: Females were caged together with males on a one-to-one-basis in Macrolon cages (MIII type, height 18 cm). During the weekend, mating procedures were suspended and the animals were housed in groups of maximum 5 animals/sex/cage in Macrolon cages (MIV type, height 18 cm).
* Post-coitum: Females were individually housed in Macrolon cages (MIII type, height 18 cm).
* Randomization: Upon detection of mating (Day 0 post-coitum), the females were distributed in a random sequence over the test groups. Females which were mated on the same day were classified in the same subgroup.
* General: Sterilized sawdust as bedding material (Litalabo, S.P.P.S., Argenteuil, France) and paper as cage-enrichment (Enviro-dri, Wm. Lillico & Son (Wonham Mill Ltd), Surrey, United Kingdom) was supplied. Certificates of analysis were examined and then retained in the NOTOX archives.
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): Free access to pelleted rodent diet (SM R/M-Z from SSNIFF® Spezialdiäten GmbH, Soest, Germany). Results of analyses for nutrients and contaminants of each batch were examined and archived.
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): Free access to tap-water. Certificates of analysis (performed quarterly) were examined and archived.
- Acclimation period: No data
Analysis of bedding, paper, diet and water did not reveal any findings that were considered to have affected study integrity.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 21±3ºC (actual range: 18.6-22.8ºC)
- Humidity (%): 30-70% (actual range: 22-66%)
- Air changes (per hr): approximately 15 air changes per hour
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12 hour light/12 hour dark cycle
Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- water
- Details on exposure:
- Vehicle:
Water (Elix, Millipore S.A.S., Molsheim, France)
Rationale for vehicle: Based on information provided by the sponsor and trial formulations performed at NOTOX.
Stability of test substance in vehicle: At least 8 days, if stored in the refrigerator (determined as part of NOTOX Project 489273).
Method of formulation: Formulations (w/w) were prepared weekly and were homogenised to a visually acceptable level. Adjustment was made for density of the test substance (1.106 g/mL).
Storage conditions: In the refrigerator.
Dose volume:
5 mL/kg body weight. Actual dose volumes were calculated according to the latest body weight.
Concentrations of formulations:
0, 30, 90 and 200 mg/mL. - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- Analyses were done on one day during the treatment period according to a validated method (NOTOX Project 489272) as specified below.
Group Analysis (type of sample)
1 acc (M)
2 acc + hom (TMB)
3 acc (M)
4 acc + hom (TMB)
Duplicate samples were analyzed
acc=accuracy, hom=homogeneity, T=top, M=middle, B=bottom position of container
The accuracy of preparation was considered acceptable if the mean measured concentrations were 90-110% of the target concentration for solutions. Homogeneity was demonstrated if the coefficient of variation was 10%.
Results:
The concentrations analysed in the formulations of Group 2, Group 3 and Group 4 were in agreement with target concentrations (i.e. mean accuracies between 90% and 110%).
A small response at the retention time of the test substance was observed in the chromatograms of the Group 1 formulation. The maximum contribution based on area to the Group 2 samples was 1.2%. The source for the response in Group 1 is probably due to carry-over of the analytical method, as no analytical column is used. Due to the nature of the test substance, this could not be circumvented.
The formulations of Group 2 and Group 4 were homogeneous (i.e. coefficient of variation 10%). - Details on mating procedure:
- Age at start of pairing: approximately 12 weeks
Breeding procedures:
One female was placed on a one-to-one-basis in the cage of a male rat. Detection of mating was confirmed by evidence of sperm in the vaginal lavage or by the appearance of an intravaginal copulatory plug. This day was designated Day 0 post-coitum. Once mating had occurred, the female was separated from the male. When sufficient mated females had been obtained for each dose group, the surplus females were removed from the study. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- From Day 6 to Day 19 post-coitum, inclusive
- Frequency of treatment:
- Once daily for 7 days per week, approximately the same time each day with a maximum of 6 hours difference between the earliest and latest dose.
- Duration of test:
- 20 days

At least twice daily.
Clinical signs
At least once daily from Day 0 post-coitum onwards. The time of onset, degree and duration was recorded. All symptoms were graded according to fixed scales: Maximum grade 1: grade 0 = absent, grade 1 = present.
Maximum grade 3 or 4: grade 1 = slight, grade 2 = moderate, grade 3 = severe, grade 4 = very severe.
Examination of cage debris of pregnant females revealed no signs of abortion or premature birth. No signs of difficult or prolonged parturition were noted among the pregnant females.
Body weights
Days 0, 3 and 6-20 (daily) post-coitum.
Food consumption
Days 0-3, 3-6, 6-9, 9-12, 12-15, 15-17 and 17-20 post-coitum.
Water consumption
Subjective appraisal was maintained during the study, but no quantitative investigation was introduced as no effect was suspected. - Ovaries and uterine content:
- All animals were subjected to an examination post-mortem. All animals surviving to Day 20 post-coitum were sacrificed using an oxygen/carbon dioxide procedure. External, thoracic and abdominal examinations were performed for the detection of macroscopic abnormalities. All abnormalities were collected and fixed in 10% buffered formalin (neutral phosphate buffered 4% formaldehyde solution, Klinipath, Duiven, The Netherlands).
Each ovary and uterine horn of animals surviving to planned necropsy was dissected and examined as quickly as possible to determine:
- The number of corpora lutea.
- The weight of the gravid uterus.
- The number and distribution of live and dead fetuses.
- The number and distribution of embryo-fetal deaths.
- The weight of each fetus.
- The sex of each fetus from the ano-genital distance (during necropsy)
and also from gonadal inspections (during further fetal examination).
- Externally visible macroscopic fetal abnormalities.
In case a female was not pregnant, the uterus was stained using the Salewski technique (Salewski, 1964) in order to determine any former implantation sites (Salewski staining prepared at NOTOX using Ammoniumsulfide-solution 20% (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) and Milli-Ro water (Millipore Corporation, Bedford, USA)).
The female genital tract including the placentas was preserved in 10% buffered formalin for possible histopathological examination. - Fetal examinations:
- External, visceral and skeletal fetal findings were recorded as developmental variations or malformations.
External:
Each viable fetus was examined in detail, sexed and weighed. All live fetuses were euthanized by subcutaneous injection of 0.01 mL pentobarbital (Euthesate®; Ceva Sante Animale B.V., Maassluis, The Netherlands for necropsies before 01 February 2009; Euthasol® 20%; AST Farma B.V., Oudewater, The Netherlands for necropsies from 01 February 2009 onwards) in the area between the scapulas. Nonviable fetuses (the degree of autolysis was minimal or absent) were examined, crown-rump length measured, weighed and sexed. The crown-rump length of late resorptions (advanced degree of autolysis) was measured, the degree of autolysis recorded, a gross external examination performed and the tissue was discarded.
Subsequently, each litter was divided into two groups:
- Approximately one half of the fetuses in each litter was examined for visceral anomalies (for details see below).
- The remaining half of the fetuses in each litter was used for skeletal examination (for details see below).
Visceral (Internal):
Approximately one-half of the fetuses in each litter was examined for visceral anomalies by dissection in the fresh (non-fixed) state. The thoracic and abdominal cavities were opened and dissected using a technique described by Stuckhardt and Poppe (Stuckhardt, 1984). This examination included the heart and major vessels. The sex of all fetuses was confirmed by internal examination.
The heads of these fetuses were removed and placed in Bouin's solution (Klinipath, Duiven, The Netherlands) for subsequent processing and soft-tissue examination using the Wilson sectioning technique (Wilson, 1965). After examination, the tissues were stored in 10% buffered formaline.
The carcasses were eviscerated and stored in identified containers containing 96% aqueous alcohol (Klinipath, Duiven, The Netherlands) without further examinations.
Skeletal:
Following confirmation of the sex by internal examination, the carcasses of the remaining half of the fetuses in each litter were eviscerated and fixed in identified containers containing 96% aqueous ethanol (Klinipath, Duiven, The Netherlands) for subsequent examination of skeletons.
Following fixation in alcohol, all fetuses were macerated in potassium hydroxide (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) and stained with Alizarin Red S (Klinipath, Duiven, The Netherlands) by a method similar to that described by Dawson (Dawson, 1926). For the selected fetuses, the skeletal examination was performed. The specimens were archived in glycerin (Klinipath, Duiven, The Netherlands) with bronopol (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) as preservative. - Statistics:
- The following statistical methods were used to analyze the data:
- If the variables could be assumed to follow a normal distribution, the Dunnett-test (Dunnett, 1955) (many-to-one t-test) based on a pooled variance estimate was applied for the comparison of the treated groups and the control groups for each sex.
- The Steel-test (Miller, 1981) (many-to-one rank test) was applied if the data could not be assumed to follow a normal distribution.
- The Fisher Exact-test (Fisher 1950) was applied to frequency data.
Mean litter proportions (percent per litter) of total fetal malformations and developmental variations (external, visceral, skeletal and combined), and each particular external, visceral and skeletal malformation or variation were subjected to the Kruskal-Wallis nonparametric ANOVA test (Kruskal and Wallis 1952) to determine intergroup differences. If the ANOVA revealed statistically significant (p<0.05) intergroup variance, Dunn¿s test (Dunn 1964) was used to compare the compound-treated groups to the control group.
All tests were two-sided and in all cases p < 0.05 was accepted as the lowest level of significance.
The following definitions were applicable for implantation data:
- Fetal (late) resorptions were defined as a dead fetus with external degenerative changes and presence of distinguishable features such as head or limbs.
- Embryonic (early) resorptions were defined as evidence of implantation without presence of distinguishable features such as head or limbs.
- Post-implantation loss included embryonic (early) resorptions, fetal (late) resorptions and dead fetuses. - Historical control data:
- Yes, available

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Based on the results in this prenatal developmental toxicity study, the maternal No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL) for the test substance was established as being 450 mg/kg/day, based on reduced body weights and body weight gain of the high dose animals at 1000 mg/kg/day. In the absence of treatment-related effects on reproductive parameters, fetal body weight and fetal morphology, a dosage level of 1000 mg/kg/day was considered to be the NOAEL for developmental toxicity.
