Water was determined to be the solvent of choice based on information provided by the Sponsor and compatibility with the target cells. The test substance was soluble in water at a concentration of 50 mg/mL, Hie maximum concentration tested. In the chromosome aberration assay, the maximum dose tested was 5000 (Ag/mL. The cells were Heated for 4 and 20 hours in me non-activated test system and for 4 hours in the S9 activated test system, and all cells were harvested at 20 hours after treatment initiation. Visible precipitate was observed in treatment medium at 5000 pg/mL in the non-activated 4 hour group. Dose levels S 1500 ug/mL were soluble in treatment medium in the non-activated 4 hour treatment group. Visible precipitate was observed in treatment medium at concentrations >. 1500 ug/mL in me S9 activated 4 hour group and in the non-activated 20 hour exposure group. Dose levels S 500 ug/mL were soluble in treatment medium in Ihe S9 activated 4 hour group and in the non-activated 20 hour exposure group. Selection of dose levels for the cytogeneticstest was based upon post-treatment cell growth inhibition relative to the solvent control and solubility of me test substance.

Does not contain TSCA CBI H-24616; In Vitro Chromosome Aberration Test in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) Cells___________________________DoPont-5235 PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clastogenic potential of a test substance based upon its ability to induce chromosome aberrations in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) celts. CHARACTERIZATION OF TEST SUBSTANCE AND CONTROL ARTICLES The test substance, H-24616, was received by BioReliance on November 6,2000 and was "BHBQ^ assignedthe code number AA37AZ. The test substance was characterized by the Sponsor as an ^ould be stored at ambient temperature. An expiration date was not I by the Sponsor. Upon receipt, the test substance was described as w was stored at room temperature, protected from exposure to light,. The solvent used to deliver H-24616 to me test system was sterile water (CAS 7732-18-5), from the Life Technologies Company. Mitomycin C (MMC; CAS No.: 50-07-7), was obtained from the Sigma Chemical Company, and was dissolved and diluted in sterile distilled water to stock concentrations of 1 and 2 ug/mL for use as me positive control in the non-activated test system. Cyclophosphamide (CP; CAS No.: 6055-19-2), was obtained from Sigma Chemical Company, and was dissolved and diluted in sterile distilled water to stock concentrations of 100 and 200 ug/mL for use as the positive control in the S9 activated test system. For each positive control one dose with sufficient scorable metaphase cells was selected for analysis. The solvent for the test substance was used as the solvent control at the same concentration as that found in the test substance-treated groups. Test System MATERIALS AND METHODS Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-K,) cells (repository number CCL 61) were obtained from American Type Culture Collection, Manassas, VA, on May 29,1997. In order to assure the karyotypic stability of the ceil line, working cell stocks were not used beyond passage 20. The freeze lot of cells was tested using the Hoechst staining procedure and found to be free of mycoplasma contamination. This cell line has an average cell cycle time of 10-14 hours with a modal chromosome number of 20. The use of CHO cells has been demonstrated to be an effective method of detection of chemical clastogens(Preston et al., 1981). Metabolic Activation System Aroclor 1254-induced rat liver S9 was used as the metabolic activation system. The S9 was prepared from male Sprague-Dawley rats induced with a single intraperitoneal injection of Aroclor 1254,500 mg/kg, five days prior to sacrifice. The S9 was batch prepared and stored at BioReliance Study No. AA37AZ.331 .BTL 7 Company Sanitized.

Each bulk preparation of S9 was assayed for sterility and its ability to metabolize 2-aminoanthracene and 7,12-dimethylbenz(cx)anthracene to forms mutagenic to Salmonella typhxmwiwn TA100. Immediately prior to use, the S9 was thawed and mixed with a cofactor pool to contain 2 mM magnesium chloride, 6 roM potassium chloride, 1 mM glucose-6-phosphate, 1 mM nicotmamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate(NADP) and 20 uL S9 per milliliter medium (McCoy's 5A serum-free medium supplemented with, 100 units penicillin and 100 pg streptomycin/mL, and 2 mM L-glutaniine). Chromosome Aberration Assay Selection of dose levels for the cytogenetics test was based upon post-treatment cell growth inhibition relative to the solvent control and solubility of the test substance. Whenever possible, the high dose to evaluate chromosome aberrations was selected to give at least 50% reduction in cell growth. The chromosome aberration assay was performed using standard procedures (Evans, 1976), by exposing duplicate cultures of CHO cells to the test substance as well as positive and solvent controls. For the chromosome aberration assay, CHO cells were seeded at approximately 5 x 105 cells/25 cm2 flask and were incubated at 371C in a humidified atmosphere of 51% CO; in air for 16-24 hours. Treatment was earned out by refeeding duplicate flasks with 4.5 mL complete medium (McCoy's 5A medium supplemented with 10% FBS, 100 units penicillin and 100 ug streptomycin/mL, and 2 mM L-glutamine) for the non- activated study or 4.5 mL S9 reaction mixture for me S9 activated study, to which was added 500 uL of dosing solution of test or control article in solvent or solvent alone. The osmolality of the highestconcentration of dosing solution in me treatment medium was measured. The pH of the highest concentration of dosing solution in the treatment medium was measured using testtape. In me non-activated study, the cells were exposed to the test substance for 4 hours or continuously for 20 hours up to me cell harvest at 371C in a humidified atmosphereof5l% CO; in air (Swierenga et al., 1991). In the 4 hour exposure group, after the exposure period, the treatment medium was removed, the cells washed with CMF-PBS, refed with complete medium and returned to the incubator. Two hours prior to the scheduled cell harvest, Colcemid* was added to duplicateflasks for each treatment condition at a final concentration of 0.1 (ig/mL and me flasks returned to the incubator until cell collection. to the S9 activated study, the cells were exposed for 4 hours at 371C in a humidified atmosphere of 5=bl% CO; in air (Swierenga et al., 1991). After the exposure period, the treatment medium was removed, the cells washed with CMF-PBS, refed with complete medium and returned to the incubator. Two hours prior to the scheduled cell harvest, Colcemid was added to duplicate flasks for each treatment condition at a final concentration of BioReliance Study No. AA37AZ.331.BTL Company Sanitized.

A concurrent toxieity test was conducted in both the non-activated and the S9 activated test systems. After cell harvest an aliquot of the cell suspension was removed from each culture and counted using a Coulter counter. The presence of test substance precipitate was assessed using the unaided eye. Cell viability was determined by trypan blue dye exclusion. The cell counts and percent viability were used to determine cell growth inhibition relative to the solvent control. Collection ofMetaphase Cells Two hours after the addition of Colcemid11,metaphase cells were harvested for both the non-activated and S9 activated studies by trypsinization. Cells were collected approximately 20 hours after initiation of treatment (Galloway et al., 1994). The cells were collected by centrifugation at approximately 800 rpm for 5 minutes. The cell pellet was resuspendedin 2-4 mL 0.075 M potassium chloride (KC1) and allowed to stand at room temperature for 4-8 minutes. The cells were collected by centrifugation, the supernatant aspirated and the cells fixed with two washes of approximately 2 mL Camoy's fixative (methanol:glacial acetic acid, 3:1, v/v). The cells were stored overnight or longer in fixative at approximately 2-8C. Slide Preparation To prepare slides, the fixed cells were centrifuged at approximately 800 rpm for 5 minutes, the supernatant was aspirated, and 1 mL fresh fixative was added. After additional centrifagation(at approximately 800 rpm for 5 minutes) the supernatant fluid was decanted and the cells resuspended to opalescence in fresh fixative. A sufficient amount of cell suspension was dropped onto the center of a glass slide and allowed to air dry. Slides were identified by the study number, date prepared and the treatment condition. The dried slides were stained with 5% Giemsa, air dried and permanently mounted. Evaluation ofMetaphase Cells Slides were coded using random numbers by an individual not involved with the scoring process. To ensure that a sufficient number of metaphase cells were present on the slides, the percentage of cells in mitosis per 500 cells scored (mitotic index) was determined for each treatment group. Metaphase cells with 202 centoomeres were examined undei oil immersion without prior knowledge of treatment groups. Initially, the non-activated and S9 activated 4 hour exposure groups were evaluated for chromosome aberrations and if a positive result was obtained in me non-activated 4 hour exposure group, we non-activated 20 hour continuous exposure group was not evaluated for chromosome aberrations. Whenever possible, a minimum of 200 metaphase spreads(100 per duplicate flask) were examined and scored for chromatid-lype and chromosome-type aberrations (Scott et al., 1990).

Chromatid-type aberrations include chromatid and isochromatid breaks and exchange figures such as quadriradials (symmetrical and asymmetrical interchanges), triradials, and complex rearrangements. Chromosome-type aberrations include chromosome breaks and exchange figures such as dicentrics and rings. Fragments (chromatid or acentric) observed in me absence of any exchange figure were scored as a break (chromatid or chromosome). Fragments observed with an exchange figure were not scored as an aberration but instead were considered part of the incomplete exchange. Pulverized chromosome(s), pulverized cells and severely damaged cells (S10 aberrations) were also recorded. Chromatid and isochromatid gaps were recorded but not included in me analysis. The XY coordinates for each cell with chromosomal aberrations were recorded using a calibrated microscope stage. Polyploidand endoreduplicated cells were evaluated from each treatment flask per 100 metaphase cells scored. Controls Mitomycin C was used as me positive control in me non-activated study at final concentrations of 0.1 and 0.2 ug/mL. Cyclophosphamide was used as the positive control in the S9 activated study at final concentrations of 10 and 20 ug/mL. For both positive controls the dose level exhibiting a sufficient number of scorable metaphase cells was selected for analysis. The solvent vehicle for the test substance was used as the solvent control at the same concentration as that found in die test substance-treated groups. Evaluation of Test Results The toxic effects of treatment were based upon cell growth inhibition relative to the solvent-treated control and are presented for the aberration studies. The number and types of aberrations round, the percentage of structurally and numerically damaged cells (percent aberrant cells) in the tote! population of cells examined, and the mean aberrations per cell was calculated and reported for each group. Chromatid and isochromatid gaps are presented in the data but are not included in me total percentage of cells with one or more aberrations or in the frequency of structural aberrations per cell. Statistical analysis of the percent aberrant cells was performed using the Fisher's exact test Fisher's test was used to compare pairwise the percent aberrant cells of each treatment group with that of the solvent control. In the event of a positive Fisher's test at any test substance dose level, the Cochran-Annitage test was used to measure dose-responsiveness. All conclusions were based on sound scientific basis; however, as a guide to interpretation of me data, the test substance was considered to induce a positive response when the percentage of cells with aberrations is increased in a dose-responsive manner with one or more Company Sanitized.

Solubility RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Water was determined to he me solvent of choice based on information provided by the Sponsor and compatibility with the target cells. The test substance was soluble in water at a concentration of 50 mg/mL, the maximum concentration tested. Chromosome Aberration Assay Selection of the dose levels for the cytogenetics test was based upon post-treatment cell growth inhibition relative to the solvent control and solubility of me test substance. Whenever possible, the high dose to evaluate chromosome aberrations was selected to give 50% toxicity. Two additional dose levels, demonstrating lime or no toridty were also included. CHO cells were exposed to solvent alone and to nine concentrations of test substance ranging from 0.5 ug/mL to 5000 pg/mL in the absence of an S9 reaction mixture.

Hie results of the evaluation of cell growth inhibition are presented in Tables 1, 3 and 5. Visible precipitate was observed in treatment medium at 5000 pg/roL in the non-activated 4 hour group. Dose levels < 1500 pg/mL were soluble in treatment medium in the non-activated 4 hour treatment group. Visible precipitate was observed in treatment medium at concentrations >. 1500 ug/mL in the S9 activated 4 hour group and in the non-acdvated 20 hour exposure group. Dose levels ^ 500 pg/mL were soluble in treatment medium in the S9 activated 4 hour group and in the non-activated 20 hour exposure group. Based upon the results of the toxicity study, the dose levels selected for evaluation in the chromosome aberration assay were as follows: Treatment Condition -S9 +S9 Treatment Time (hours) 4 Recovery Time (hours) 16 Dose levels (pg/mL) 500,1500,5000 20 0 500,1500,5000 4 16 1500,2000,2500 Chromosome Aberration Assay In the non-activated chromosome aberration assays the osmolality in treatment medium of the highestconcentration tested, 5000 pg/mL, was 259 mmol/kg. The osmolality in treatment medium of the lowest precipitating dose, 1500 ug/mL, was 267 mmol/kg. The osmolality in treatment medium of the highest soluble dose, 500 pg/mL, was 264 mmol/kg. The osmolality of the solvent (water) in treatment medium was 273 mmol/kg. The pH of we highest concentration of test substance in treatment medium was approximately 7. Changes of higher than 50 mmol are not acceptable. Cell growth inhibition relative to the solvent control of H-24616 in CHO cells when treated for 4 hours in the absence of S9 activation was 15% at 5000 pg/mL, the highest test concentration evaluated for chromosome aberrations (Table 1). The activity of H-24616 in (he induction of chromosome aberrations is presented by treatment flask in Table 2 and summarized by group in Table 7. The mitotic index at the highest dose level evaluated for chromosome aberrations, 5000 ug/mL, was 25% reduced relative to the solvent control. Toe dose levels selected for microscopic analysis were 500,1500 and 5000 pg/mL.

There was no dose level with 50% toxidty (cell growth inhibition) in the S9 activated treatment group, so this portion of the assay was repeated. Results from die initial S9 activated assay were recorded but are not reported. Toxicity of H-24616 (cell growth inhibition relative to the solvent control) in CHO cells when treated for 4 hours in the presence of S9 activation in the repeat assay was 40% at 2500 ugtaL, the highest test concentration evaluated for chromosome aberrations (Table 3). The activity of H-24616 in me induction of chromosome aberrations is presented by treatment flask in Table 4 and summarized by group in Table 7. The mitotic index at the highestdose level evaluated for chromosome aberrations, 2500 ug/mL, was 52% reduced relative to me solvent control. The dose levels selected for microscopic analysis were 1500,2000 and 2500 ug^nL. The percentage of cells with numerical aberrations in the test substance-treated groups was not statistically increased above that of the solvent control (p>0.05. Fisher's exact test). The percentage of cells with structural aberrations in me test substance-treated groups was statistically increased above mat of the solvent control at dose level 2000 ug/mL (p<0.05. Fisher's exact test). However, the percentage of cells with structural aberrations (4%) was within the historical solvent control range of 0% to 6.5%. Therefore, it is not considered biologically significant The percentage of structurally damaged cells in the CP group was round to be statisticallysignificant(14.5%). In the absence of a positive response in me non-activated 4 hour exposure group, slides from me non-activated 20 hour exposure group were evaluated for chromosome aberrations. Toxicity of H-24616 (cell growth inhibition relative to the solvent control) was 36% at 5000 ug/mL, the highest test concentration evaluated for chromosome aberrations in the non- activated 20 hour continuous exposure group (Table 5). The activity of H-24616 in me induction of chromosome aberrations is presented by treatment flask in Table 6 and summarized by group in Table 7. The mitotic index at (he highest dose level evaluated for chromosome aberrations, 5000 ug/mL, was 23% reduced relative to me solvent control. The dose levels selected for microscopicanalysis were 500,1500, and 5000 ug/mL. The percentage of cells with structural or numerical aberrations in the test substance-treated groups was not significantly increased above that of me solvent control (p>0.05). The percentage of structurally damaged cells in the MMC group was round to be statistically significant (13.5%). CONCLUSION The positive and solvent controls fulfilled me requirements for a valid test Based on the findings of this study'IHHHBv^ concluded to be negative for the induction of structural and numerical chromosome aberrations in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells in the presence and absence ofAroclor-induced rat liver S9.

Solvents compatible with this test system, in older of preference, include but are not limited to sterile water (CAS 7732-18-5), dimethylsulfbxide(CAS 67-<S8.5),ethanol (CAS 64.17-5), and acetone (CAS 67-64.1). The solvent will be the test substance solvent, selected in older of prefereace,that penmts preparationof me highestsoluble stock concentration, up to 500mg/ml. 72 PreliminBryToxicteyTest for Selection ofDose Levels Selection of toe dose levels for die cytogeaeucs test will be based upon posttreatment toxkity (cell growth inhibition relative to toe solvent control) and solubilityof the test substance. CHO cells will be exposedto solvent alone and to at least nine concentrations of test substance. The highestconcentration tested will be 5 mg/ml or 10 mM whichever is lower for freely soluble-test substances, or the maximum concentration resulting in a workable suspensionfor pooriy soluble test substances not to exceed 5 mg/ml. The pH will be measured at the highest test substance malment condition and will be adjusted,if necesauy, in ocder to maintain a neutral pH in the tteatment medium. The osmoialityofthe highestdose level, lowest precipitatingdose level (where applicable)and the highestsoluble dose level (where applicable)in treatment medium will also be measured. Cells seeded 16*24 hours eariier will be exposed for 4 hours in the absence and presence of S9 and for 20 hours in the absence of S9. Just prior to ttypsinizationthe cell cultures will be visually inspectedfor me extent of monolayer confluency relative to the solvent con&oL Twenty hows after treatment initiation the cells will be harvested by ttypsinizittionand counted using an automatic cell coumer and the cell viability will be assessed usingtrypan blue dye exclusion. The cell counts and percent viability will be used to determine celt growth inhibition relative to the solvent control. Whenever possible, the high dose to evaluate chromosome aberrations will be selected to give at least 50% loxicity (cell growth inhibition relative to the solvent control) irrespectiveof solubility but not to exceed 5 mg/ml or 10 mM. At least two additional dose levels, demonstratingminimal or no toxicity will be included.

If excessive precipitationof die test substance-solvent solution occurs upon addition to treatment medium, or if the osmolality of tile treatment medium is considered excessive, the Sponsorwill be consulted. 7.3 Frequency and Route of Administration Target cells will be treated for 4 hours in the absence and presence of S9 and for 20 hours in the absence ofS9, by incorporation of me test substance-solvent mixture into the treatment medium. This techniquehas been demonstrated to be an effective method of detection of chemical clastogens in this test system (Evans, 1976). If me Sponsor is aware of specificmetabolic requirements, then mis information will be utilized in the preparation of the study design. Verification of a clear positive response is not required. Negative results will not be confirmed when justification can be provided. Equivocal results may be confirmed, upon consultation with me Sponsor, and may employ a modification of the studydesign. This guidance is based on the OECD Guideline 473 (1997) and ICH Guidance on SpecificAspectsof RegulatoryGenotoxieity Tests fix Phannaceuncals (1996). 7.4 Activation System Aroctor 1254-ioduced rat liver S9 will be used as die metabolic activation system.

Cells will be harvested by trypsinization, collected by centrifugationand an aliquot will be removed for counting using an automatic cell counter and trypan blue dye exclusion. The remainder of die cells will be swollen with 0.075M KC1, washed with two consecutive changes of fixative (methaaol:glacialacetic acid, 3:1 v/v), cappedawl stored overnight or longer at approximately2-8<>C, The cell counts and percent viability will be used to determine ceil growth inhibition relative to die solvent control (*/ toxicity). To prepare slides, UK cells will be collected by centrifiqanon and resuspendedin fiesh fixative. 'Toe suspensionof fixed cells will be appliedto glass microscope slides and air-dried. The slides will be identified by die experiment number, treatment condition and date. The slides will be stained with Giemsa and permanently mounted. 7.10 Scoringfor Metaphase Aberrations To ensure that a sufficient number ofmetaphase cells are present on the slides, die pcrecntage of cells in mitosis per 500 cells cored(mitotic index) will be detennined and recorded for each coded treatment group selected for scoring chromosome abenations. Slides will be coded using nmdom numbers by an individual not involved with the scoringprocess. In the event of a positive response in the 4 hour non-activated study,the prolongedexposure non-activated study may siot be scored. Metaphase cells with 20 2 centtomeres will be examined under oil immersion without prior knowledge of treatment groups. Whenever possible, a minimum of 200 metaphase spreads from each dose level (100 per duplicate flask) will be examined nd scored for chromatid-type and chromosome-type aberrations (Scott et al., 1990). The number ofmetaphase spreadsthat will be examined and scored per duplicate flask any be reduced if me percentage of abenant cells leaches a statistically significant level before 100 cells are scofed. Chromatid-type aberrations include chromatid and isochroimtid breaks and exchange figuressuch as quadriradials(symmetricaland asymmetrical interchanges),triradials, and complex resiTUigements. Chromosome-type aberrations include chromosome breaks and exchange figures such as diccntries and rings. Fragments (chromatid or acentric) observed m the absence of any exchangefigure wUl be scored as a break (chromatid orchromosome). Fragmentsobserved with an exchange figure will not be scored as an abenction but will be considered part of the incompleteexchange. Pulverized chromo3ome(s), pulverizedcells and severely damagedcells (2 10 aberrations)will also be recorded. Chromatid and isochromatid gaps will be recorded but not included in the analysis.

The percent polyploidand endoreduplicatedcells will be evaluated per 100 cells for each dose level analyzedfor structural aberrations. 8.0 CRITERIA FOR DETERMINATION OF A VALID TEST 8.1 Solvent Comrol The frequencyof cells with structural chromosome aberrations in die solvent control must be within the range of die historical solvent control. 8.2 Positive Control Hie percentage of cells with aberrations must be statistically increased (p^O.05, Fisher's exact test) relative to the solvent control. 9.0 EVALUATION OF TEST RESULTS The toxic effects of treatment are based upon cell growth inhibition relative to die solvent control aiidwiU be presoited for the toxicity and abenation studies. The number and types of aberraricms found, the percentage of stnienmulyaadnumericayydansaged cells (penxm aberrant cells) in the total populationof cells examined, and the mean aberrations per cell will be calculated and reportedfor each treatment group. Chronutid and isochromatid gaps are presented m die data but ace not included in die total peicenuge of cells with one or more aberraticms or u die feequencyof suwtundaberratrons per cell. Statistical analysisof the percentage of abcnant cells wiU be performed using the Fisher's exact test TheFisher's test wiU be used to conipBrepairv^ the percent abenam cells of each toeatment group with ttiat of the solvent control In the event of a positive Fisher's exact test at any test substance dose level, die Cochran-Armitage test will be used to measure dose-responsiveness. All conclusions will be based on sound scientific basis; however, as a guide to interpretationof the data, die test substance will be considered to induce a positive response when die percentage of cells with aberrations is increased in a dose-responsivemanner with one or more concentrations being statistically significant (p$0.05). However, values that are statisticallysignificantbut do not exceed the range of historic negative or solvent controls may be judged as not biologically significant. Test substances not demonstrating a statisticallysignificantincrease in aberrations will be concluded to be negative. 10.0 REPORT .
