- Animals: 25 female rats/group
DOSAGE PREPARATION:
- The test item formulations were freshly prepared every day.
- The test item was suspended in the vehicle to the appropriate concentrations using a magnetic stirrer and was administered orally at a constant volume once daily from the 6th to the 20th day of gestation. Stirring of the formulations was continued until the last animal of the dose group had been dosed.
- The amount of the test item was daily adjusted to the current body weight of the animal.
- The control animals received the vehicle at the same administration volume daily in the same way.
- The male rats for mating remained untreated. - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Remarks:
- The analytical method was successfully re-validated by LPT: Analytical Method for the Determination of test item in Formulations with subsequent HPLC UV Detection
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- For the analysis of the test item-vehicle formulations, samples of approximately 2 mL were taken at the following times and stored at -20°C or colder until analysis at LPT:
At start of dosing
- Analysis of stability and concentration: Immediately after preparation of the formula-tions as well as after 8 and 24 hours storage of formulations at room temperature. (3 samples/test item group), Number of samples: 3 x 3 = 9,
- Homogeneity: At the start of dosing, during (middle) admin-istration and before dosing to the last animal of the test item group. (3 samples/test item group), Number of samples: 3 x 3 = 9,
At the end of the dosing period (at a time when the majority of animals was dosed):
- Analysis of concentration: During treatment with the test item always before administration to the last animal of the dose level group. (1 sample/test item group), Number of samples: 1 x 3 = 3
Sum of all samples: 21 - Details on mating procedure:
- Sexually mature ('proved') male rats of the same breed served as partners.
The female breeding partners were randomly chosen.
Mating was monogamous: 1 male and 1 female animal were placed together in one cage during the dark period. Each morning a vaginal smear was taken to check for the pres-ence of sperm. If findings were negative, mating was repeated with the same partner. The day on which sperm was found was considered as the day of conception (day 0 of pregnancy). This procedure was repeated until enough pregnant dams were available for all groups.
Rats which did not become pregnant were excluded from the analysis of the results and replaced by other animals.
A post-mortem negative staining according to SALEWSKI was carried out in the replaced animals in order to confirm the non-pregnancy status. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- From gestation day 6 until gestation day 20
- Frequency of treatment:
- Once daily
- Duration of test:
- On gestation day 21, all rats were euthanized by carbon dioxide (CO2) inhalation and laparotomised.

In this dose-range finding study, test item was administered to pregnant female rats at dose levels of 100, 300 or 1000 mg/kg b.w./day orally, by gavage, once daily from gestation day 6 to 20.
No premature deaths were noted.
No test item-related influence was noted on behaviour or external appearance, body weight as well as intake of food and drinking water of the dams at any tested dose level. Necropsy revealed no changes for the dams of any test group.
No embryotoxic properties (no dead fetuses, no malformations and no test item-related variations) were noted at any of the tested dose levels.
Examinations
- Maternal examinations:
- Dated and signed records of all activities relating to the day to day running and maintenance of the study within the animal units, as well as to the
group observations and examinations outlined in the Study Plan, were recorded in the appropriate documentation. In addition, observations relating
to the individual animals made throughout the study were recorded.
The following observations were made during the course of the study:
Clinical signs
Individual animals were observed daily for any signs of behavioural changes, reaction to treatment, or illness.
Immediately after administration, any signs of illness or reaction to treatment were rec-orded. In case of changes, the animals were observed until thesymptoms disappeared. In addition, animals were checked regularly throughout the working day from 7.00 a.m. to 3.45 p.m.
On Saturdays and Sundays, the animals were checked regularly starting from 7.00 a.m. to 11.00 a.m. with a final check performed at approximately
3.30 p.m.
Dated and signed records of appearance, change and disappearance of clinical signs were maintained on clinical history sheets for individual animals.
Viability
Further checks were made early in the morning and again in the afternoon of each working day to look for dead or moribund animals. This allowed
post mortem examinations to be carried out during the working period of that day. On Saturdays and Sundays, a similar procedure was followed
except that the final check was carried out at approximately midday.
Animals showing signs of abortion or premature delivery would have been sacrificed on the same day. Fetuses obtained this way were examined for
abnormal development, whenever possible. No abortion occurred in the study.
Body weight
The weight of each rat was recorded on day 0 of gestation (the day of detection of a positive mating sign), followed by daily weighing - always at the same time of the day.
The body weight gain was calculated in intervals (i.e. day 0-3, 3 6, 6-9, 9-12, 12-15, 15-18 and 18-21), for the whole study (gestation day 0 - 21) and for the period after the start of dosing (gestation day 6 to gestation day 21). Furthermore the carcass weight and the net weight gain from day 6 is given.
These values are stated in the report.
These measurements were also used for calculating the daily amount of test item to be administered.
Food and drinking water consumption
The quantity of food consumed by each rat was recorded daily. Food intake per rat (g/rat/day) was calculated using the total amount of food given to and left by each rat in each group on completion of a treatment day.
The relative food consumption (g/kg b.w./day) was calculated using the following formula:
Daily food consumption [g/kg b.w./day]= Total food intake in g / Body weight in g x 1000
Daily monitoring by visual appraisal of the drinking water bottles was maintained throughout the study.
EXAMINATIONS (NECROPSY), Examination of the dams
Dissection technique and evaluation of the animals:
On gestation day 21, the rats were laparotomised under ether narcosis. The ovaries and the uteri of the dams were removed; the gravid uteri (in toto) were weighed. In order to check for possible test item effects, a dissection with macroscopic examination of the internal organs and placentae of the dams was carried out on the day of sacrifice or on the day on which the animals were found dead. In case of macroscopical findings, the affected maternal tissues were preserved in 7% buffered formalin for possible future histopathological examinations.

Pre implantation
loss [%] = sum of pre-implantation losses per litter in a group [%] / number of litters in a group
Post implantation
loss [%] = sum of post-implantation losses per litter in a group [%] / number of litters in a group
- Fetal examinations:
- The fetuses were removed and the following examinations performed:
(a) Macroscopic inspection (gross evaluation) of the placentae for example for focal indurations.
(b) The number of fetuses (alive and dead) and placentae (location in uterus and as-signment to the fetus) was determined.
(c) Sex and viability of fetuses were determined. Animals are said to be viable when they are found alive (spontaneous breathing,
spontaneous movement).
(d) Number and size of resorptions were determined.
(e) Corpora lutea in the ovaries, implantations and location of fetuses in the uterus were determined.
(f) Weights of fetuses and weights of the placentae were determined (fetuses were considered as runts if their weight was less than 70% of the mean litter weight).
(g) All fetuses (dead and alive) were inspected externally for damages, especially for malformations .
(h) The fetuses were sacrificed by an ether atmosphere.
(i) Examination of fetuses and determination of number and kind of retardations, variations or malformations:
1) 50% of the number of fetuses in each litter were examined for skeletal anomalies. The thorax and peritoneal cavity (without damage to ribs and sternum) were opened and the location, size and condition of the internal organs were determined.
Then the skeleton was double-stained with Alcian blue for the examination of cartilage and with Alizarin red to reveal ossifications (according to DAWSON). The skeletal system was examined (determination of the number and type of retardations, variations as well as malformations).
2) The remaining 50% of the number of fetuses in each litter were examined for soft tissue anomalies. Body sections were made and examined according to WILSON.
The fetuses were allocated to the evaluation of DAWSON or WILSON on an alternating basis. - Statistics:
- Parametrical data:
The statistical evaluation of the parametrical values was done by Provantis using the following settings:
Homogeneity of variances and normality of distribution were tested using the BARTLETT’s and SHAPIRO-WILKS test. In case of heterogeneity and/or non-normality of distribution, stepwise transformation of the values into logarithmic or rank values was performed prior to ANOVA. If the ANOVA yielded a significant effect (p ≤ 0.05), inter-group comparisons with the control group were made by the DUNNETT’s test (p ≤ 0.01 and p ≤ 0.05).
Non-parametrical data
The statistical evaluation of non-parametrical values was done using the FISHER or Chi2 test:
FISHERs exact test, n < 100; (p ≤ 0.05 and p ≤ 0.01)
or
Chi2 test, n ≤ 0.01 (p ≤ 0.05 and p ≤ 0.01)
The respective calculations for the FISHER and Chi2 test were performed using Provan-tis (maternal macroscopic findings at necropsy or findings during the external macro-scopic examination of the fetuses). or an internal computer program (e.g. findings during the fetal skeletal or soft tissue examination).
Note:
The statistical evaluation of the pre- and post-implantation index (per group) using the number of corpora lutea, implantation sites and/ or fetuses per group (see table 7-1 Re-production Data - Summary - Values per Group) was done using StatXact 4.0.1 software, as such a calculation is not possible in Provantis.
Significantly different data are indicated in the summary tables of the result sections of the report. - Indices:

- External malformations:
- effects observed, non-treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- No macroscopically visible external observations (malformations or variations) were noted for the fetuses of the test item-treated groups during the macroscopic inspection at laparotomy.
However, one fetus (no. 2-3) with an external malformation in the form of a small tail (brachycaudia) was noted in the control group. This finding is in the range of spontaneous variability - Skeletal malformations:
- effects observed, non-treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- No skeletal malformations were noted for the fetuses of the control group and the test item-treated groups during the skeletal examination according to DAWSON.
Skeletal variations
Skeletal variations were noted for the ribs (wavy or less than 13 rib(s) ossified) and the sternebrae (bipartite, misaligned to a slight degree or misshapen).
No test item-related increase in the incidence of the observed skeletal variations in com-parison to the control group were noted for the fetuses of the treatment groups.
Skeletal retardations
Retardations (delayed ossifications) were related to the skull (incomplete ossification of frontal, parietal, interparietal and/or supraoccipital areas), the hyoid (unossified), the sternum (sternebra(e) incompletely ossified, reduced in size or unossified), the thoracic vertebral bodies (bipartite or dumbbell-shaped), the sacral vertebral bodies (unossified), the caudal vertebral bodies (all bodies unossified), os ischii (incompletely ossified or unossified), os pubis (incompletely ossified) and the metacarpalia (absence of ossification in metacarpalia 2 to 5).
The incidences of the observed skeletal retardations revealed no test item-related differences between the fetuses of the control group and the fetuses of the treatment groups. However, a statistically significantly increased incidence of unossified hyoids was noted at the intermediate dose level. As no dose-response relationship was noted and all values were still in the range of LPT background data, this observation is not considered as test item-related. - Visceral malformations:
- effects observed, non-treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- The macroscopic inspection of the organs and tissues for gross alterations at laparotomy revealed no malformations or variations for the fetuses of the control group and the fetuses of the treatment groups .
No malformations were noted for the fetuses of the control group and the fetuses of the low and the high dose group during the soft tissue examination according to WILSON.
One fetus with a cleft palate (69-13) was noted at the intermediate dose level. The finding of a cleft palate during the external and/or the soft tissue examination according to WILSON is in the range of LPT back-ground data and not considered as test item-related.

During the examination of the organs and tissues according to WILSON variations were noted for the cerebral ventricle (dilatation of the 4th ventricle), the kidneys (uni- or bilateral dilatation of the renal pelvis, reduced in size, malpositioned) and the liver (haemorrhagic focus/foci).
No test item-related differences and no statistically significant differences in the incidences of the observed variations were noted between the control group and the test item-treated groups.
Unclassified Observations
A thoracic cavity filled with blood was noted for one fetus of the control group (no. 17-9), one fetus of the intermediate (no. 54-12) and one fetus of the high dose group (no. 78-13). This observation is a preparation induced artefact and not considered as test item-related. - Details on embryotoxic / teratogenic effects:
- No test item-related malformation or variations were noted during the macroscopic inspection at laparotomy (including an external inspection and a gross inspection of the organs), the skeletal examination according to DAWSON and the soft tissue examination according to WILSON.
No test item-related retardation (delay in ossification) was noted in any of the treatment groups.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Under the present test conditions, the no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) was above 1000 mg test item/kg b.w./day for the dams. None of the dams died prematurely and no signs of clinical toxicity were noted.
The no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) for the fetal organism was also above 1000 mg test item/kg b.w./day.
The reproductive parameters (number of implantation sites, number of resorptions and number of fetuses) were not influenced by the test item.
No dead fetuses, no malformations and no test item-related variations or retardations were noted.
Under the conditions of the study, test item did not show any teratogenic potential. - Executive summary:
The aim of this dose-range-finding study was the examination of the influence of test item administered orally during the critical period of organogenesis and the fetal development (6th to 20th day of gestation) on the pregnant rat and the fetus.
In this prenatal developmental toxicity study, the test item was administered orally to female rats at dose levels of 100, 300 or 1000 mg/kg b.w./day from the 6th to 20th day of pregnancy.
