Results and discussion

Results of examinations

Clinical signs:
effects observed, treatment-related
Description (incidence and severity):
Endpoint Effect level Based on Sex Basis for effect level / Remarks
NOAEL 16.5 mg/kg bw/day (nominal) original NCD unit is mg/kg/day.
Mortality:
mortality observed, treatment-related
Description (incidence):
yes:There were no unscheduled deaths. Post dosing clinical signs included salivation and piloerection in treated animals, excessive activity occasional observations of straub tail in high dose animals
Body weight and weight changes:
effects observed, treatment-related
Description (incidence and severity):
Reduced body weight gain was apparent in high dose animals and to a lesser extent in intermediate dose animals
Food consumption and compound intake (if feeding study):
effects observed, treatment-related
Description (incidence and severity):
Reduced food consumption was noted in high dose animals
Haematological findings:
effects observed, treatment-related
Description (incidence and severity):
yes: There was a reduced plasma alanine aminotransferase in high dose animals. The plasma urea and bilirubin concentrations were increased in intermediate and high dose animals and the plasma total cholesterol concentration was increased in high dose animals.
Clinical biochemistry findings:
effects observed, treatment-related
Description (incidence and severity):
yes: Clinical chemistry indicated lower plasma alanine aminotransferase activity in high dose group animals
Gross pathological findings:
no effects observed
Description (incidence and severity):
no effects - There were no macroscopic findings suggestive of any systemic test article toxicity.
Details on results:
Clinical observations:
Clinical signs reported following administration included salivation and piloerection, excessive activity and occasional observations of straub tail in high dose animals.
High dose males had a reduced hindlimb footsplay and reduced forelimb and hindlimb grip strength.

Laboratory findings:
Clinical chemistry indicated lower plasma alanine aminotransferase activity in high dose group animals.

The group mean plasa urea concentration and the plasma total bilirubin concentration of intermediate and high dose animals was above controls for both males and females. The group mean plasma total cholesterol concentration of high dose males and females was above control values.

Effects in organs:
There were no dose-related macroscopic effects in organs although an effect on weight of adrenals and livers were noted for the high and intermediate groups.
Microscopic examination showed minor tubular vacuolation in the kidney and centrilobular hypertrophy in the liver in the high dose and some intermediate dose animals.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
In conclusion, administration of BMS-233110-01 to rats for 28 days at dosages of 55 mg/kg/day and above was mainly associated with, reduced body weight gain and food intake, changes in plasma clinical chemistry parameters, increased adrenal and liver weight, microscopic observations of tubular vacuolation in the kidney and centrilobular hypertrophy in the liver. There was some evidence of an effect of treatment on the central nervous system. The NOEL was considered to be 16.5 mg/kg/day.
