Executive summary:

Chlorohydrine intermediate of saquinavir: Primary Dermal Irritation in Rabbits

This study was conducted in compliance with the FDA Good Laboratory Practice Regulations 21 CFR Part 58 and OECD Guideline 404.

The purpose of this study was to determine the potential irritant effects of *Chlorohydrine on the skin.

One group of New Zealand White rabbits (three males and three females) were used. The hair was clipped from the back prior to application of the test article. Each animal received 500 mg (moistened with 0.5 mL saline) of the test article at one dermal, semi occluded site. The patches were removed after four hours. Observations for responses were recorded at 60 minutes, 24, 48 and 72 hours after unwrapping and on Days 4 and 5, according to the method of Draize.

Very slight to well-defined erythema with very slight to slight edema was observed at 60 minutes post-unwrap, and at 48 and 72 hours and on Day 4. No necrosis was observed during the study. There was an increase in body weight of all animals during the study. The study was terminated following the Day 5 observation period.

Based upon the observations made in the Primary Dermal Irritation Study in rabbits, test article Chlorohydrine, is a barely perceptible dermal irritant. The Primary Dermal Irritation Index is 0.5.

Chlorohydrine was not a dermal irritant under the test conditions and thus, is not classified as irritating to the skin under EU criteria.
