- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- corn oil
- Details on oral exposure:
- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS:
The required amounts of test substance were measured out into the final formulation bottles for each dosage group. A sufficient amount of vehicle was supplied in a separate bottle. Within the animal facility just before daily dose administration, starting with the lowest concentration, the required amount of vehicle was withdrawn from the bottle using a syringe and the contents added to the respective final formulation bottle. The contents of the formulation bottle were then stirred with a spatula to remove any test substance adhering to the bottle walls, then mixed with a whirlimixer for approximately one minute to aid dissolution. Each subsequent dose concentration was formulated similarly, in ascending order. Formulation was stirred continuously using a magnetic stirrer.
VEHICLE

- Details on study design:
- - Dose selection rationale: The dosages were selected in conjunction with previous work with the compound performed in the same laboratories with the Huntingdon Life Sciences report numbers ALS 66/95011 and ALS 77/952298. Results from these studies indicated that a level of 150 mg/kg/day or above would not be tolerated over 13-weeks of treatment and it was predicted that treatment at 50 mg/kg/day for 13 weeks would result in tolerable toxicity.
- Rationale for selecting satellite groups: 3 groups of 5 males and 5 females were treated with 0 (control), 5, 15, 50 mg/kg bw/day for 13 weeks, followed by a 4 week period without treatment to assess recovery from any treatment related effect
- Post-exposure recovery period in satellite groups: 4 weeks
Examinations
- Observations and examinations performed and frequency:
- CAGE SIDE OBSERVATIONS: Yes
- Time schedule: Animals were inspected visually at least twice daily for evidence of ill-health or reaction to treatment. Cages and cage-trays were inspected daily for evidence of ill-health. During the acclimatisation period and recovery Week 1, observations of the animals and their cages were recorded at least once per day and during recovery Week 2 onwards, at least once each week.
DETAILED CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS: Yes
- Time schedule: Daily throughout the treatment period, detailed observations were performed immediately before dosing and between one and two hours after completion of dosing of all groups. A further observation was performed as late as possible in the working day during the first week of treatment. In addition, a more detailed weekly physical examination was performed on each animal to monitor general health.Animals were assessed for physical condition and behaviour during handling and after being placed in a standard arena. Particular attention was paid to possible signs of neurotoxicity, such as convulsions, tremor and abnormalities of gait or behaviour.
BODY WEIGHT: Yes
- Time schedule: The weight of each rat was recorded one week before treatment commenced, on the day that treatment commenced, weekly throughout the treatment and recovery periods before necropsy.
FOOD CONSUMPTION: Yes
- Time schedule: The weight of food supplied to each cage, that remaining and a estimate of any spilled was recorded for the week before treatment started, and each week throughout the treatment and recovery periods, from these records the mean weekly consumption per animal (g/rat/week) was calculated for each cage.
FOOD EFFICIENCY: Yes

- CLINICAL SIGNS AND MORTALITY
There were no unscheduled deaths during the treatment period. However, a single male rat receiving 15 mg/kg/day was killed in extremis due to poor clinical condition during the second week of the recovery period. Clinical signs observed before death comprised aggressive behaviour, a twisted left hind paw with skin encrustation on the digits, piloerection, partially closed eyelids, pale teeth, red discharge from the nose, elevated abnormal gait with a hunched posture, irregular respiration and slight muscle tremors. Macroscopic examination at the post-mortem of this animal also revealed dark adrenal glands, a small and dark thymus, gaseous distension of the gastrointestinal tract, congested lungs and bronchi. The histopathological investigation of this animal did not reveal a conclusive cause of death but ulcerative pododermatitis in the left hind paw was considered to be a contributory factor; thus the death of this animal is not considered to be associated with previous treatment. There were no post dose signs observed during the 13 week treatment period or 4 week recovery period that were considered to be attributable to treatment.
BODY WEIGHT AND WEIGHT GAIN
During the 13 week treatment period, bodyweight gains although variable showed no clear dosage related trend in either sex and it was considered not to have been affected by treatment. During the 4 week recovery period, the overall bodyweight gain was superior or similar to that of control among previously treated male and female groups.
FOOD CONSUMPTION AND COMPOUND INTAKE (if feeding study)
The overall (Weeks 1 to 13) food consumption means among treated female groups were slightly, but statistically significantly, higher than control; although the mean values did not follow a dosage related trend and the differences from control were minor. The overall food consumption for the male treated groups was essentially similar to control, during the 13 week treatment period. During the 4 week recovery period food consumption was marginally higher than control for both sexes previously treated at 50 mg/kg/day and for males previously treated at 15 mg/kg/day. The food intake of the remaining recovery animals was similar to that of their respective controls.
FOOD EFFICIENCY
Overall, food conversion efficiency ratios for all treated groups were considered essentially similar to control. The food conversion efficiency recorded during the 4 week recovery period was variable, resulting in overall values that were superior to that of control for all male treated groups and were inferior to control for females previously treated at 15 mg/kg/day. The food conversion efficiency ratios for the remaining treated groups were considered to be essentially similar to that of their respective controls. The pattern of the overall ratios tended to follow a similar pattern to that of the recovery bodyweight gains. In the absence of any previous effect of treatment on food conversion efficiency these changes were considered not to be related to the previous treatment.
OPHTHALMOSCOPIC EXAMINATION
At the Week 12 ophthalmic examination there was no effect of treatment observed in the eyes of animals treated with OS2200. As such further ophthalmic investigations were not undertaken at the end of the 4 week recovery period.
HAEMATOLOGY
There were clear effects of treatment on red blood cell parameters for both sexes. These were confined to animals receiving 50 mg/kg/day and were observed mainly at the Week 13 investigation. Reversibility of these findings was evident after a 4-week period without treatment.
In Week 5 it was recorded a higher mean reticulocyte value recorded for females receiving 50 mg/kg/day. A similar difference was again noted for these females in Week 13, with the magnitude of differences from control being greater in Week 13 than in Week 5. A higher mean reticulocyte value was also recorded for males receiving 50 mg/kg/day in Week 13. In addition, in Week 13 both sexes treated at 50 mg/kg/day showed lower than control mean red blood cell values, with the males also showing lower than controls mean haemoglobin (Hb) and haematocrit (Hct) values. Associated with these effects on primary red blood cell parameters, in Week 13, were slightly higher than control mean cell haemoglobin (MCH) and mean cell volume (MCV) mean values recorded for females receiving 50 mg/kg/day. There were no treatment-related effects on blood film comments. Recovery from the red cell effects was clearly evident by the end of the 4-week period without treatment. At the end of the recovery period mean Hb and RBC values for females which had previously been treated at 50 mg/kg/day, were slightly higher than controls. This was considered to be due to an over compensation of red blood cell production following cessation of treatment, which was also reflected in the slightly lower than control mean reticulocyte value recorded for these females. At the recovery investigations females from other previously treated groups showed higher than control red cell parameters and lower reticulocyte values, of a similar magnitude to females previously treated at 50 mg/kg/day. In the absence of any effects in these groups during treatment, these differences were considered to be indicative of normal biological variation associated with the small group size rather than associated with previous treatment. There was considered to be no clear effect of treatment on clotting parameters for both sexes. In Week 13, females receiving 50 mg/kg/day also showed a higher than control mean platelet value, however, the degree of difference from controls was minor and individual values for these treated females were in the range of individual control values. Thus, this difference was not considered to be due to treatment. In Weeks 5 and 13 males receiving 50 mg/kg/day showed lower mean PT and APTT values, compared with controls. The magnitude of the difference from control for the PT values decreased with time, such that in Week 13 the mean was 96% of the control value and similar to the mean for males receiving 15 mg/kg/day. Consequently this difference from control was considered not to be of toxicological importance. Between Week 5 and 13, the degree of difference from control for mean APTT increased, however, the difference in Week 13 was considered to be mainly due to a low value for a single male (No. 69), unduly influencing the group mean; with the individual values for the remaining males at 50 mg/kg/day being similar to controls. There were no other differences from controls, including white blood cell parameters and other statistical significances, which were considered be treatment related.
CLINICAL CHEMISTRY
In Week 13 only, females receiving 15 or 50 mg/kg/day showed higher than control mean bilirubin values. The magnitude of the difference from controls was similar for both groups. Full recovery in bilirubin values were seen by the end of the recovery period. Females receiving 50 mg/kg/day showed lower than control mean potassium values in Weeks 5 and 13, with the difference from control increasing over time. There was no difference from control for potassium at the end of the recovery period. In addition, in Week 5 only, these females also showed a slightly lower than control mean sodium value. All but one individual sodium value for these females was within the concurrent control range, thus this difference from control was considered not to be treatment-related. Both sexes receiving 50 mg/kg/day showed differences from controls for mean glucose values in Week 13. Males showed a higher than control mean value, whilst conversely females showed a lower than control mean value of similar magnitude. At the end of the recovery period similar differences from controls were again exhibited for these groups, with females which had previously received 15 mg/kg/day also showing a lower than control mean value. Due to the sexes showing opposite trends, the wide degree of variation in individual values and the mean value for females previously treated with 15 mg/kg/day showing a lower mean at recovery than females which had received 50 mg/kg/day in Week 13, the differences from controls in glucose values were considered not to be associated with treatment. In Week 5 slightly lower than control mean creatinine values were noted for all male treated groups, which attained statistical significance, with all male treated groups having the same mean value. The majority of individual creatinine values for the treated male animals were, however, within the range of the individual control values, thus this change was not considered to be of toxicological importance. In Week 13 slightly lower than control AST values were recorded for all treated male groups, but this change was considered to be fortuitous as the mean values did not follow a dosage related trend and all the individual values (except for one male receiving 50 mg/kg/day) were within the range for the individual control values, thus this change was not considered to be related to treatment.
There were no other differences from controls, including those that attained statistical significances, which were considered to be treatment related.
URINALYSIS
There were no effects of treatment on urine parameters for males at the end of the treatment period. Females receiving 15 or 50 mg/kg/day did however show higher than control mean protein values both at the end of the treatment and recovery periods. These differences from controls did not follow a dosage relationship and the majority of individual values recorded for these females were within or close to the concurrent control ranges and thus an effect of treatment is considered to be doubtful. All other parameters are considered essentially similar to control.
NEUROBEHAVIOUR
At the week 5 and 12 assessments of sensor reactivity and grip strength, there were no effects of treatment observed in animals treated with OS2200, as no effects were observed, no further assessment was undertaken during the recovery period. Males treated at 50mg/kg/day showed higher low beam scores at several times during the week 12 assessment. Total scores for males receiving 50mg/kg/day were also significantly higher than control. However high beam scores were only marginally higher than control, no similar change was observed among treated females at this dose level and also no treatment related clinical signs were observed during the week 13 treatment period, thus these changes were considered to be of minor toxicological importance.
ORGAN WEIGHTS
Analysis of the organ weights for animals killed after completion of 13 weeks of treatment revealed a statistically significantly higher than control mean spleen weight (adjusted for bodyweight) for males receiving 50 mg/kg/day. Recovery was evident at the end of the 4 week recovery period with spleen weights for males previously treated at 50 mg/kg/day being comparable with control. Higher than control mean heart weights were recorded for females treated at 5 and 15 mg/kg/day, while heart weights for females treated at 50 mg/kg/day were comparable with control, thus, as no microscopic changes were observed in the heart, this change was not considered to be associated with treatment. Analysis of organ weights for animals killed at the end of the 4 week recovery period revealed a statistically significantly lower than control mean spleen weight (adjusted for bodyweight) for females previously treated at 50 mg/kg/day. In addition, slightly higher than control adrenal weights were recorded for previously treated male groups when compared with control. However, the mean values did not follow a dosage related trend; thus, in the absence of treatment related microscopic changes being observed in the adrenals, these differences from control are not considered to be associated with previous treatment. All other parameters are considered essentially similar to control
GROSS PATHOLOGY
The macroscopic examination for animals killed after completion of 13 weeks of treatment with OS2200, or 4 weeks of recovery, did not reveal any macroscopic changes which could be attributed treatment. The incidence and distribution of all the findings were considered to fall within the background range of macroscopic changes.
HISTOPATHOLOGY: NON-NEOPLASTIC
Treatment-related findings:
Kidney: increased severity and/or incidence of cortical tubules with hyaline droplets and cortical tubular basophilia were seen in males treated at 15 or 50 mg/kg/day of OS2200, when compared with controls. Increased incidence only of cortical tubular basophilia was seen in males treated at 5 mg/kg/day OS2200 when compared with controls. Increased incidence and severity of medullary tubular basophilia was seen in males treated at 50 mg/kg/day OS2200, when compared with controls. Tubular basophilia was unaffected in female rats treated with OS2200. Spleen: Increased incidence and severity of extramedullary haemopoiesis was seen in all OS2200 treated groups in both sexes, when compared with controls. Dosage-relationships were not evident. Increased incidence and severity of haemosiderosis was seen in males and females receiving 50 mg/kg/day of OS2200, when compared with controls.
Recovery phase:
Kidney: Cortical tubules with hyaline droplets were not present in any of recovery animals. Recovery had occurred for cortical tubular basophilia or medullary tubular basophilia in all previously treated groups. Spleen: Extramedullary haemopoiesis and haemosiderosis had broadly resolved in both males and females.

a-p<0.05, b-p<0.01 with Fisher’s Exact test, on total incidences only.
After oral administration of OS2200 to the rats for 13 weeks, changes were seen in the kidney and spleen. In the male kidney, cortical tubules with hyaline droplets and cortical tubular basophilia were identified with a severity and/or higher incidence in rats treated at 15 or 50 mg/kg/day OS2200. In the spleen, there were increased incidence and severity of extramedullary haemopoiesis in all treated groups of both sexes, compared with controls. Also increased incidence and severity of haemosiderosis were seen in animals treated at 50 mg/kg/day of OS2200 in both sexes, when compared with controls. In the recovery, all lesions of kidney and spleen had resolved.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Based on the read-across approach, the NOAEL for the test item after 13 weeks of oral exposure to rats was determined to be 10 mg/kg bw/day based on the effects on the red blood cell rate of turnover occurring mainly among animals receiving an estimated dose of 35 mg/kg bw/day and resulting in associated changes in the spleen.
- Executive summary:
A 13 week repeated dose toxicity test followed by a 4 week recovery period was performed to assess the systemic toxicity of the analogue substance OS 2200 (GLP study). The test was performed in rats by oral gavage, three groups, each comprising then male and ten female rats received OS2200 at dosages of 5, 15 or 50 mg/kg bodyweight/day. A similarly constituted group received the vehicle, corn oil, at the same volume-dosage. A further five male and five female rats were assigned to each of the groups, these animals were treated for 13 weeks, followed by a 4 week period without treatment to assess recovery from any treatment related effect. During the study, clinical condition, detailed physical and arena observations, sensory reactivity, grip strength, motor activity, bodyweight, food consumption, ophthalmic examination, haematology, blood chemistry, urinalysis, organ weight, macropathology and histopathology investigations were undertaken. It was concluded that the principal action of OS2200 was to affect the red blood cell rate of turnover occurring mainly among animals receiving 50 mg/kg/day, resulting in associated changes in the spleen. Due to the high incidence of medullary haemopoesis observed in the spleen in both sexes among all treated groups, a NOEL was not established for OS 2200 in this study. A dosage level of 15 mg/kg/day, however, was considered to be the highest NOAEL for OS 2200 on this study, as the changes observed at 5 and 15 mg/kg/day were considered to be minor in nature and had shown full recovery after 4 weeks without treatment.
Based on these results, the read-across approach was applied and the 90 days-NOAEL for the target substance OS9600 by oral route in rats was determined to be 10 mg/kg bw/day.
