Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Genetic toxicity in vivo

Description of key information
In all reported data on test material, the results do not show any mutagen effects.
Link to relevant study records
Reference
Endpoint:
in vivo mammalian somatic cell study: cytogenicity / erythrocyte micronucleus
Remarks:
Type of genotoxicity: chromosome aberration
Type of information:
migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
weight of evidence
Study period:
2012
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
A reliable secondary source, summarising Fexofenadine pharmaco-toxicological properties, was used. However the primary sources were not revisited in order to verify their contents; for this reason reliability score 2 was used. The used secondary source has been updated on 2012; therefore it covers the most updated literature on the substance.
Qualifier:
no guideline available
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The method is not specified.
GLP compliance:
not specified
Type of assay:
micronucleus assay
Species:
mouse
Strain:
not specified
Sex:
not specified
Route of administration:
other: no data
Sex:
not specified
Genotoxicity:
negative
Toxicity:
not specified
Vehicle controls validity:
not specified
Negative controls validity:
not specified
Positive controls validity:
not specified
Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information): negative
According to Directive 67/548/EEC and to Regulation (EC) n. 1272/2008, the substance should not be classified for mutagenicity.
Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (negative)

Additional information

Additional information from genetic toxicity in vivo:

The substance is not considered mutagen in all tests performed.


Justification for selection of genetic toxicity endpoint
The in vivo study is considered more reliable to justify the mutagenicity.

Justification for classification or non-classification

According to Directive 67/548/EEC and to Regulation (EC) n. 1272/2008, the substance should not be classified for mutagenicity.
