In vitro test system

Details on the study design:
The in vitro KeratinoSens™ assay enables detection of the sensitising potential of a test item by
addressing the second molecular key event of the adverse outcome pathway (AOP), namely
activation of keratinocytes, by quantifying the luciferase activity in the transgenic cell line
KeratinoSens™. The luciferase activity, assessed by luminescence measurement, compared
to the respective solvent controls is used to support discrimination between skin sensitisers
and non-sensitisers.

Results and discussion

Positive control results:
The luciferase activity induced by the positive control at a concentration of 64 µM was between 2 and 8 (5.0 (experiment 1); 2.52 (experiment 2) and 3.54 (experiment 3)).

Acceptance Criteria

The test meets acceptance criteria if:
- the luciferase activity induction of the positive control is statistically significant above the threshold of 1.5 (using a t-test) in at least one of the tested concentrations
- the average induction in the three technical replicates for the positive control at a concentration of
64 µM is between 2 and 8
- the EC1.5 value of the positive control is within two standard deviations of the historical mean
- the average coefficient of variation (CV; consisting of 6 wells) of the luminescence reading for the
negative (solvent) control DMSO is <20% in each repetition.

The controls fullfilled the validity criteria of the test.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
In this study under the given conditions the test item did induce the luciferase activity in the transgenic KeratinoSens™ cell line in at least two independent experiment runs, but without any dose response. Therefore, the test item has to be considered as inconclusive.

The data generated with this test should be considered in the context of integrated approached such as IATA, combining the result with other complementary information, e.g. derived from in vitro assays addressing other key events of the skin sensitisation AOP.
Executive summary:

In the present study 35760/270 was dissolved in THF. As the test item had no defined molecular weight, the test was performed using a pro forma molecular weight of 200 g/mol. Based on this, a stock solution of 200 mM was prepared.

Based on the stock solution a set of twelve master solutions in 100% solvent was prepared by serial dilution using a constant dilution factor of 1:2. These master solutions were diluted 1:100 in cell culture medium. The following concentration range was tested in the assay:

2000, 1000, 500, 250, 125, 62.5, 31.25, 15.63, 7.81, 3.91, 1.95, 0.98 µM

Cells were incubated with the test item for 48 h at 37°C. After exposure cells were lysed and luciferase activity was assessed by luminescence measurement.

In the first experiment, a max luciferase activity (Imax) induction of 3.78 was determined at a test item concentration of 7.81 µM. The corresponding cell viability was 120%. The calculated EC1.5 was <1000 µM (4.58 µM).

In the second experiment, a max luciferase activity (Imax) induction of 1.57 was determined at a test item concentration of 7.81 µM. The corresponding cell viability was 64.4%. This was the only tested concentration with a significant luciferase induction >1.5. The calculated EC1.5 was <1000 µM (7.48 µM).

In the third experiment, a max luciferase activity (Imax) induction of 2.81 was determined at a test item concentration of 15.63 µM. The corresponding cell viability was 21.4%. The calculated EC1.5 was <1000 µM (5.19 µM).

Due to a missing dose response in the first and third main experiment the test item has to be considered as inconclusive.
