- Details on study design:
- - Dose selection rationale: Dose levels of 37.5, 75 and 150 mg/kg/day were selected by the based on information from a preliminary non-GLP compliant study (ERBC Study no. Y0470). In thepreliminary study, the dose levels of 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg/day were used. The test item induced slight to moderate signs of maternal toxicity at all dose levels, in terms of clinical signs recorded and decreased body weight gain. These effects were more evident at the two highest dose levels in which unscheduled death and decrease in absolute weight gain were also noted.

Statistical analysis of non-continuous variables was carried out by means of the Kruskal-
Wallis test and intergroup differences between the control and treated groups assessed by a
non-parametric version of the Williams test. - Indices:
- -Pre, post- and totoal implantation loss were calculated as a percentage.
- Sex ratios of the foetuses were calculated as the percentage of males per litter.
- Anogenital distance (AGD): The AGD of each live foetus was measured on Day 20 post
coitum. The AGD was normalized to the cube root of body weight collected on Day 20 post
coitum. Individual and mean data were reported.

females were comparable to the control group. No treatment-related was seen in thyroid weight if treated females compared to the control. The decrease of relavtive (% to body weight) (approximately 18%) seen in females receiving 150 mg/kg/day, compared to controlm was not considered test item.related since no concurrent histopathological findings were noted. - Gross pathological findings:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Females that completed the treatment period did not show relevant macroscopic changes
that could be considered treatment-related.
No treatment-related changed were noted in control and treated females, following gross pathological examination. All observed changes were considered spontaneous and incidental, having a comparable incidence in control and treated groups and /or are characteristically seen in untreated Sprague Dawley SD rats of the same age. - Neuropathological findings:
- not examined
- Description (incidence and severity):
- No treatment-related finsing were noted in the microscopic evaluation of the thyroid gland of treaed females, when compared to their controls.

- not examined
- Other effects:
- not examined
- Description (incidence and severity):
- No differences between control and treated animals were recorded.

- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Post-implantation losses, as percentage of implantation sites, were 2.5%, 1.8%, 2.2% and 1.9% in control and in females treated at 37.5, 75 and 150 mg/kg/day, respectively. Number of live fetuses corrrespond to 97.4%, 98.4%, 97.7% and 97.8% of implantation sites in control and in females treated at 37.5, 75 and 150 mg/kg/day, respectively.

- no effects observed
- Changes in number of pregnant:

- Changes in sex ratio:

- Changes in litter size and weights:

- Anogenital distance of all rodent fetuses:

- Description (incidence and severity):
- No changes were seen in AGD (anogenital distance) between control and treated groups. No differences were noted in the mean values of the AGD of the fetuses of both sexes, maternally exposed at all dose levels compared to the control group.
- Changes in postnatal survival:
- no effects observed
- External malformations:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- During the external examination of fetuses, abnormal findings were noted in the three fetuses of control groups, in one fetus at 37.5 mg/kg/day, in seven fetusus at 75 mg/kg/day and three fetuses at 150 mg/kg/day. Abnormal findings such as small fetusus (weight < 2.7 g), acaudia, imperforate anus and malrotated forelimbs were considered to be incidental due the the presence also in control group (acaudia and imperforate anus) and / or because they occured without dose-dependancy
- Skeletal malformations:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Abnormalities and variations noted during the skeletal examination were observed in control and treated groups wihtout of dose-dependency, thus they were not considered to be attributed to the treatment with the test item. During skeletal examination of the fetuses, findings were noted in:
- 90% examined fetuses (in 100% litters) in control group:;
- 88% examined fetuses (in 100% litters) at 37.5 mg/ kg bw/day:
- 90% examined fetuses (in 100% litters) at 75 mg/ kg bw/ day;
- 81% examined fetuses (in 100% litters) at 150 mg/kg bw/ day.
The distribution of these alteration among the groups, control and treated, did not indicate any test item related effects.
Major abnormality (pubis bone no ossification) were noted in one control fetus ( in 1 litter), 1 fetus maternally exposed at 37. 5 mg/ kg bw/ day (out of 1 litter) , in 6 fetuses (out of 2 litters) exposed at 75 mg/kg bw/ day and in 3 fetuses (out of 2 litter) exposed at 150 mg/kg bw/ day. Two additional fetuses, one maternaly exposed at 37.5 mg/kg bw / day and one at 150 mg/ bw/ day showed cleft palate and polydactyly, respectively. The distribution of these alterations among the groups, control and treated, did not indicate any test-tem related effects. - Visceral malformations:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- There was no visceral malformation associated with treatment with the test item.
Oveerall, fetal variations observed during the microdissection were commonly seen in rat foetuses in this age. Thus, these findings could be incidental and not attributed to the treatment with the test item . Consequently, under the conditions described for the present study, the test item did not reveal teratorgenic potential up to and including the dose level of 150 mg/ kg bw/ day - Other effects:
- not examined

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The test item was administered, by oral gavage, to mated female Sprague Dawley rats (25 females per dose group) from Days 3 to 19 post coitum.
The vehicle was softened water (by reverse osmosis) and the dose volume used was 10 mL/kg.
The dose levels were 0, 37.5, 75 and 150 mg/kg/day. On Day 20 post coitum the dams were killed and macroscopically examined.
Gravid uterus and thyroid were weighed and fetuses were examined after caesarian section. External, visceral and skeletal examinations were performed on fetuses of all groups.
No mortalities were observed. One female receiving 75 mg/kg/day was found not pregnant at necropsy.
Further, daily clinical observations during the gestation period did not reveal any remarkable findings in the animals’ appearance, general condition or behaviour amongst the dosing and control groups.
No significant differences in mean body weights, body weight gain and food consumption were observed amongst the control and treated groups.
There were no statistically significant differences between the control and treated groups in the number of corpora lutea, number of implantations, live fetuses and early and late resorptions, nor in the pre- and post-implantation loss or in the sex ratio of the fetuses.
Furthermore, no significant differences in the litter and mean fetal weights were observed between control and treated groups.
No remarkable differences in gravid uterus weight, terminal body weight or absolute weight gain were observed between the control group and the groups receiving the test item.
Fetal external observations, visceral and skeletal examination did not reveal any remarkable findings which could be related to treatment.
Based on the results obtained in the study, the NOAEL for maternal and developmental toxicity could be set at 150 mg/kg/day.
