Conclusions:

Under the test conditions, MRD-88-295 did not elicit any effects which could be considered as characteristic of a photoxic propensity or a primary irritant.

Executive summary:

This data is being read across from the source study that tested Hydrocarbons, C14-C19, isoalkanes, cyclics, <2% aromatics based on analogue read across.

This study included three phases which evaluated different propensities of the MRD-88-295 test substance as the first phase was only a preliminary test condition study.

The phase II study was performed in order to determine the Phototoxicity and the Primary irritancy propensities of MRD-88-295 in human skin.

A preliminary Phase I study was conducted to determine the Minimum Erythemogenic Dose (MED) for each member of a group of thirty panelists when the skin is irradiated by UV-B light. The least duration of UV-B exposure which produced erythema of Grade 1 or greater was selected as the MED value for each panelist. One volunteer was dropped out at the end of the phase II of the study.

The Phase II study was performed with a panel of 30 volunteers. The test substance was diluted at 50% w/w in petrolatum and 0.3 g of solution were applied to skin of volunteers under semi-occlusive patches for a period of 24 hours. The control site was also covered with a similar semi-occlusive bandage without test substance. After exposure, skin examinations were conducted. After first exposure, participants received 0.3 g of undiluted MRD-88-295 (or water for negative control site) on the same sites, which was removed after 10 minutes. Then, for the phototoxicity determination, the right arm was exposed to 15 min UV-A followed by 1 MED of UV-B. The left arm was not exposed to UV to determine the primary irritancy. Both arms were examined for dermal irritation at 24, 48 and 72 hours after exposure.Skin reaction was not observed in any subjects.

Under the test conditions, MRD-88-295 did not elicit any effects which could be construed as characteristic of a phototoxic propensity or a primary irritant.

no guideline required

Principles of method if other than guideline:

A preliminary Phase I study was conducted to determine the Minimum Erythemogenic Dose (MED) for each member of a group of thirty panelists when the skin of each is irradiated by UV-B light.
The aim of the phase II study was the determination of Phototoxicity and Primary Irritancy of MRD-88-295 in Human skin.
The procedure required the concurrent application of the test materials on corresponding heterolateral sites of the upper arms of each panelist.
On each arm, 4 test sites were used a 5th site serving as a control (no test material applied).
Day 1: each testing site had 0.3 mL of a 50% w/w MRD-88-295 solution applied to it and held in contact with the skin for 24 hours under a semi-occlusive dressing.
Day 2: After 24 hours, participants returned and had 0.3 mL of a neat solution of MRD-88-295 or water (if control) was applied to the same sites, which was removed after 10 minutes. The right arm was exposed to 15 min UV-A followed by 1 MED of UV-B (phototoxicity) and the left arm was not (primary irritant study), both arms were examined for irritation. Participants returned at 24, 48 and 72 hours for an examination for dermal irritation.
