Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose)
- Details on exposure:
- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS:
The vehicle suspension was prepared approximately weekly for administration to the control group and for preparation of the test substance formulations. Following formulation, the pH of the vehicle was adjusted to a pH of 3.5 ± 0.4 using 2 N or 5 N HCl. Aliquots were prepared for daily dispensation to the control group and stored refrigerated (2°C to 8°C). The vehicle was mixed throughout the preparation, sampling, and dose administration procedures.
The test substance formulations were prepared approximately weekly as single formulations for each dosage level, divided into aliquots for daily dispensation, and stored refrigerated (2°C to 8°C). The test substance formulations were stirred continuously throughout the preparation, sampling, and dose administration procedures.
VEHICLE: 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and 0.1% Tween® 80 in deionized water, pH 3.5
- Justification for use and choice of vehicle (if other than water): Vehicle is accepted in international guidelines and use of vehicle resulted in formulations acceptable for administration.
- Concentration in vehicle: 25, 50 and 100 mg/mL
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 10 mL. Actual dose volumes were calculated according to the latest body weight. - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- Samples of dose preparations were collected at the test facility and analyzed for homogeneity (first 250 and 1000 mg/kg bw/day dosing formulations) and concentration (first, third and last dosing for mulations of all dose groups including control). In addition, samples were analyzed for resuspension homogen eity and stability (the first 250 and 1000 mg/kg bw/day dosing suspensions following refrigerated (2°C to 8°C) storage for 10 days).
The accuracy of preparation was considered acceptable if the mean measured concentrations were 85-115% of the target concentration. Homogeneity was demonstrated if the relative standard deviation was ≤ 10%. Formulations were considered stable if the relative difference before and after storage was maximally 10%. - Details on mating procedure:
- - M/F ratio per cage:1/1 (one female was cohabitated with one male of the same treatment group).
- Length of cohabitation: A maximum of 14 days was allowed for mating.
- Proof of pregnancy: 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 males and females were separated.
- After 14 days of unsuccessful pairing two females (250 mg/kg bw/day) who had not shown evidence of mating was separated from their males.
- After successful mating each pregnant female was caged individually. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- Males were exposed for 28 days, i.e. 2 weeks prior to mating, during mating, and up to termination.
Females were exposed for 50-63 days, i.e. during 2 weeks prior to mating, during mating, during postcoitum, and during at least 4 days of lactation. Females with no evidence of mating were dosed for 52 days through the day prior to euthanasia (Postcohabitation Day 25).
Pups were not treated directly, but were potentially exposed to the test substance in utero and through lactational transfer. - Frequency of treatment:
- Once daily for 7 d/w.
- Duration of test:
- Males: 28 days
Females: 50-63 days
Pups: 13 days
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 10
- Control animals:
- yes, concurrent vehicle
- Details on study design:
- - Dose selection rationale:
Dose levels were based on results of a 10-Day dose range finding study. In this study, the test substance was administered to males and females at dosage levels of 100, 250 and 500 mg/kg/day. The test substance was well tolerated in both males and females, with no significant adverse effects at any dosage level. Therefore, a high-dosage level of 1000 mg/kg/day was used in the current study as the limit dose, which was expected to produce signs of toxicity, without causing mortality. Dosage levels of 250 and 500 mg/kg/day were selected as the low- and mid-dosage levels to establish a dose response and a no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL).
Parturition:
During the period of expected parturition, the females were observed twice daily for initiation and completion of parturition and for signs of dystocia. On the day parturition was initiated (PND 0), pups were sexed and examined for gross malformations, and the numbers of stillborn and live pups were recorded. Individual gestation length was calculated using the date delivery started.
Identification of pups:
On Day 1 of lactation, all pups were randomized per litter and individually identified by means of subcutaneous injection of Indian ink.
Culling:
To reduce variability among the litters, 8 pups/litter, 4 pups/sex when possible, were randomly selected on PND 4. Standardization of litter size was not performed on litters with fewer than 8 pups.
Selection of animals for selected measurements:
5 animals/sex/group were randomly selected at allocation for functional observations, clinical pathology and histopathology (see also respective paragraphs). Only females with live offspring were selected.
Examinations
- Maternal examinations:
- CAGE SIDE OBSERVATIONS: Yes
- Time schedule: Twice daily.
DETAILED CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS: Yes
- Time schedule: Individual clinical observations were recorded daily and detailed physical examinations were conducted weekly (prior to dose administration during the treatment period). Each female was also observed for signs of toxicity approximately 2 hours following dose administration.

If possible, defects or cause of death were evaluated. - Statistics:
- The following statistical methods were used to analyse 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 Fisher Exact-test (Fisher, 1950) was applied to frequency data.
- Parental mating, fertility, conception, and copulation indices were analyzed using the Chi-square test with Yates’ correction factor.
Analyses were conducted using two-tailed tests (except as noted otherwise) for minimum significance levels of 1% and 5%, comparing each test substance-treated group to the control group by sex. - Indices:
- Reproductive indices; For each group, the following calculations were performed:
For each group, the following calculations were performed:
- Male (Female) Mating Index (%): No. of males (Females) with evidence of mating (or confirmed pregnant)/Total No. of males (females) used for mating x 100
- Male Fertility Index (%): No. of males siring a litter/Total No. of males used for mating x 100
- Male Copulation Index (%): No. of males siring a litter/ No. of males with evidence of mating (or females with confirmed pregnancy) x 100
- Female Fertility index: No. of females with confirmed pregnancy/No. of females used for mating x 100
- Female Conception Index (%): No. of females with confirmed pregnancy /No. of females with evidence of mating x 100
Offspring indices:
Mean Live Litter Size: Total No. of viable pups on PND 0/No. of litters with viable pups PND 0
Postnatal Survival Between Birth and PND 0 or PND 4 (% Per Litter): Sum of (viable pups per litter on PND 0 or PND 4/No. of Pups Born Per Litter)/No. of litters per group x 100
Postnatal Survival for All Other Intervals (% Per Litter): Sum of (viable pups per litter at end of interval N/viable pup per litter at start of interval N)/No. of litters per group x 100
where N = PND 0–1, 1–4 (pre-selection), 4 (post-selection)–7, 7–10, 10–13, birth to PND 4, and 4 (post-selection)–13
Results and discussion
Results: maternal animals
General toxicity (maternal animals)
- Clinical signs:
- no effects observed
- Mortality:
- mortality observed, non-treatment-related
- Description (incidence):
- In the control group, one F0 female was found dead on Gestation Day 12; no clinical observations or noteworthy changes in body weight were noted for this female prior to death. Following macroscopic and microscopic examinations, the cause of death was determined to be an acute pericardial hemorrhage. An additional F0 Female in the control group was euthanized in extremis on Lactation Day 0 due to poor clinical condition, including observations of a cool and pale body and extremities at the daily examinations on the day prior to and/or the day of euthanasia. Following macroscopic and microscopic examinations, the cause of the moribund condition of this female was uterine hemorrhage, which was consistent with uterine torsion noted at the gross examination. All other control group animals survived to the scheduled necropsies.
