- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS:
Following procedure was followed when 100 mL of dose formulation prepared:
The quantities of 1000, 3000 and 10000 mg of test item was weighed on a separate aluminum foil and carefully transferred into separate mortor. Small aliquot of vehicle [0.5%w/v sodium salt of carboxymethyl cellulose (medium viscosity) with 0.1 % Tween 80 in Milli-Q water] was added to each mortar and triturated well to obtain the pasty mass of the suspension. Required aliquot of vehicle was added to the mass and triturated to obtain the suspension and then transferred to separate measuring cylinders. The mortar and pestle was rinsed with vehicle and it was transferred to the respective measuring cylinders. The final volume was made up with the vehicle to get the final concentration of 10, 30 and 100 mg/mL for the G2, G3 and G4/G4R groups, respectively.

VEHICLE
- Justification for use and choice of vehicle (if other than water):0.5% (w/v) Sodium Carboxymethyl cellulose (medium viscosity) with 0.1% (w/v) Tween® 80 in Milli-Q water was used as vehicle for dose formulation preparation as the same vehicle was used in the dose range finding toxicity study (study no. G8202). Indeed, this vehicle is commonly used for iterative studies, moreover the test item is well solubilized in this matrix. Further the historical data was also available with this vehicle.
- Concentration in vehicle: 0.5 %
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 10 mL/Kg body weight
- Lot/batch no. (if required): 039K0149
- Purity: NA - Details on mating procedure:
- - M/F ratio per cage: 1:1
- Length of cohabitation: 21 days
- Proof of pregnancy: [vaginal plug / sperm in vaginal smear] referred to as [day 0 / day 1] of pregnancy
- After 14 days of unsuccessful pairing replacement of first male by another male with proven fertility.
- Further matings after two unsuccessful attempts: no
- After successful mating each pregnant female was caged (how): individually
- Any other deviations from standard protocol: Nil - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- For homogeneity and test item concentration (calculated based on determined concentration of DPHP as tracer) analysis, the prepared dose suspension was sampled in duplicate sets from each dose levels (two samples were drawn from each of the top, middle and bottom layers) on Day 1 and during 2nd month of the treatment period. Similarly, one sample from middle layer was drawn from vehicle control. One set of samples was sent to Analytical R&D of Advinus Therapeutics Limited, for analysis and the other set were stored in the refrigerator condition. The sample analysis was done as per the analytical method validated under Advinus Study No.: G8201.
On Day 1, samples corresponding to 10 mg/mL and 30 mg/mL were marginally outside the acceptance criteria of ±15%. Hence back-up samples were analysed. The results indicated that the test item concentrations in solution were within the permissible limits of ± 15 %.from the nominal concentrations. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- Males: The dose formulation was administered to the rats of the specific groups once daily at approximately the same time each day (varying by ± 2 hours) for 2 weeks prior to mating. Treatment was continued during mating and up to and including the day before sacrifice which was done after the completion of the mating process.
Females: The dose formulations were administered to the specific group of rats once daily at approximately the same time each day (varying by ± 2 hours) throughout the treatment period. Treatment was done 2 weeks prior to the mating period and continued through mating, pregnancy and up to lactation day 4, after which, pups were sacrificed on lactation day 4 and females (dams) were sacrificed on lactation day 5 after overnight fasting (water allowed).
The dose formulations were administered to the high dose recovery group of rats once daily at approximately the same time each day (varying by ± 2 hours).
Similarly, vehicle was administered to rats in the vehicle control and vehicle control recovery groups.
The dose volume administered to each rat was at an equivolume of 10 mL/kg body weight throughout the study. The dose volume was adjusted based on the most recent body weight of individual rat.
The vehicle and the test item was not administered for vehicle control recovery and high dose recovery groups, respectively for 14 days following the treatment period. - Frequency of treatment:

- SACRIFICE
- The offspring were sacrificed on day 4 of lactation.
GROSS NECROPSY
- Gross necropsy consisted of external and internal examinations including the cervical, thoracic, and abdominal viscera. - Statistics:
- The statistical analysis of the experimental data was carried out using the validated package in Excel and also using licensed copies of SYSTAT Statistical package ver.12.0. All quantitative variables like body weight, food intake, haematology, clinical chemistry, organ weights and organ weight ratios were tested for normality (Shapiro-Wilk test) and homogeneity of variances (Levene’s test) within the group before performing a one-factor ANOVA modeling by treatment groups. Non-optimal (non-normal or heteroschedastic) data was transformed, before ANOVA is performed. Comparison of means between treatment groups and control group was done using Dunnett’s test when the overall treatment, ‘F’ test is found to be significant.
Pre-implantation loss (%), post implantation loss (%), no. of corpora lutea and implantations, pre-coital interval and gestation length (days) was analysed after suitable transformation (√ x + ½) of the data. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was carried out for the transformed data. Dunnett’s pair-wise comparison of the treated means with the control mean was done when the group differences are found significant.
Z test was performed for testing the differences in proportions for mating and fertility indices.
All analyses and comparisons were evaluated at the 5% (P≤0.05) level. Statistically significant differences (P≤0.05), indicated by the aforementioned tests were designated by the superscripts throughout the report as stated below:
+/- : Significantly higher (+)/lower (-) than the vehicle control group

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- To summarize, oral administration of test item “ trans-1-(1-oxohexadecyl)-4-[(1-oxohexadecyl)oxy]-L-proline” to Wistar rats at the dose levels 100, 300 and 1000 mg/kg Bwt/day had no effects on general health, body weights, food intake, pre-coital time, gestation length, mating and fertility parameters. Functional observations did not reveal any test item related changes at all the tested doses in both sexes. The live birth and survival index was not altered by the treatment at the entire tested dose. The test item administration did not reveal any treatment related changes in the hematology, coagulation and clinical chemistry parameters of both males and females. There were no test item related changes in the terminal body weights, organ weights and organs weight ratios in both males and females. Gross examination of pups on lactation day 4 did not reveal any gross changes.
There were no test item related gross and microscopic changes in both males and females
No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL):
As there were no adverse effects observed in any parameters up to the highest dose tested, the No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL) is considered to be 1000 mg/kg Bwt/day. - Executive summary:
Under experimental conditions described in the Material and Method section, the following results were obtained:
No clinical signs or mortality was observed during the course of the study.
No treatment-related neurological abnormalities /dysfunctions were observed at all the doses tested.
The body weights and food consumption were unaffected by the treatment at all the doses tested.
