Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

TDP administered by gavage once daily at 0, 50, 250 and 1000 mg/kg/day to parental F0 CD (SD) rats, 10/sex/group through prebreed, mating, gestation and F1 lactation resulted in essentially no treatment or dose related adult F0 parental toxicity at any dose at any time. Reproductive toxicity was not present in F0 males or females. There was also no F1offspring toxicity observed postnatally through the weanling necropsy. Therefore, the F0 male and female systemic no observable adverse effect level (NOAEL) was at or above 1000mg/kg/day for males and females. The NOAELs for F0 reproductive toxicity were observed at or above 1000 mg/kg/day for males and females. The NOAELs for F1 offspring toxicity during lactation were also at or above 1000 mg/kg/day for males and females. (Author)

Executive summary:

TDP administered by gavage once daily at 0, 50, 250 and 1000 mg/kg/day to parental F0 CD (SD) rats, 10/sex/group through prebreed, mating, gestation and F1 lactation resulted in essentially no treatment or dose related adult F0 parental toxicity at any dose at any time. Reproductive toxicity was not present in F0 males or females. There was also no F1offspring toxicity observed postnatally through the weanling necropsy. Therefore, the F0 male and female systemic no observable adverse effect level (NOAEL) was at or above 1000mg/kg/day for males and females. The NOAELs for F0 reproductive toxicity were observed at or above 1000 mg/kg/day for males and females. The NOAELs for F1 offspring toxicity during lactation were also at or above 1000 mg/kg/day for males and females. (Author)
