SUMMARY
The test substance, H-25171, was tested in the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test with an Independent Repeat Assay using Salmonella typhimurium tester strains TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537 and Escherichia coli tester strain WP2 uvrA in the presence and absence of Aroclor-induced rat liver S9. The test was performed in two phases, using the plate incorporation method. The first phase, the preliminary toxicity test, was used to establish the dose-range for the mutagenicity test. The second phase, the mutagenicity test (initial and independent repeat tests), was used to evaluate the mutagenic potential of the test substance.
Tetrahydrofuran (THF) was selected as the solvent of choice based on compatibility with the target cells and solubility of the test substance. The test substance was soluble but cloudy in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at a maximum concentration of approximately 200 mg/mL.
In the preliminary toxicity test, the maximum dose tested was 5000 pg per plate; this dose was achieved using a concentration of 200 mg/mL and a 25 pL plating aliquot. The test substance was a workable solution from 40 to 200 mg/mL and a soluble and clear solution from 0.27 to 27 mg/mL. Dose levels tested were 6.7, 10, 33, 67, 100, 333, 667, 1000, 3333 and 5000 pg per plate. Precipitate was observed beginning at 100 pg per plate. No appreciable toxicity was observed. Based on the findings of the toxicity test, the maximum dose plated in the mutagenicity test was 5000 pg per plate.
In the mutagenicity test, no positive mutagenic response was observed. The dose levels tested were 15,50,150, 500,1500 and 5000 pg per plate. Precipitate was observed beginning at 500 pg per plate. No appreciable toxicity was observed.
The results of the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test with an Independent Repeat Assay indicate that, under the conditions of this study, H-25171 did not cause a positive mutagenic response in either the presence or absence of Aroclor-induced rat liver S9.

PURPOSE
The purpose o f this study was to evaluate the mutagenic potential o f the test substance by measuring its ability to induce reverse mutations at selected loci of several strains of Salmonella typhimurium and at the tryptophan locus of Escherichia coli strain WP2 uvrA in the presence and absence of Aroclor-induced rat liver S9. A copy of the protocol is included in Appendix B.
This study was conducted in compliance with the testing guidelines o f the ICH (1996 and 1997) and OECD (1998).
CHARACTERIZATION OF TEST AND CONTROL SUBSTANCES
The test substance, H-25171, was received by BioReliance on 03 December 2001 and was assim ed th ^x x ie number AA52XL. The test substance was characterized by the SpoUnSsUorI oaos at t f P m m j t h a t should be stored at ambient temperature. An expiration d a te o f 26 November 2004 was provided. Upon receipt, the test substance was described as
id was stored at room temperature, protected from light and moisture. The iidoBflfiititt^yP,
strengthj*purity, composition or other characteristics to define the test substance and the stability of the test substance have been determined by the Sponsor. The Sponsor indicated that BioReliance would not receive copies of these reports.
The vehicle used to deliver H-25171 to the test system was tetrahydrofuran (THF, CAS# 109-99-9), Gold Label, 99.9%, purchased from Aldrich Chemical Company. Test substance dilutions were prepared immediately before use and delivered to the test system under yellow light. To enhance the workability of the test substance, the top concentration was sonicated in a screw-cap tube for approximately 15 minutes at 50C. Subsequent dilutions were maintained at 50C in screw-cap tubes during dosing.
Positive controls plated concurrently with the mutagenicity tests are listed below. All positive controls were diluted with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) except sodium azide, which was diluted with water. All subdivided solutions of positive control were stored at -5 to -30C.

MATERIALS AND METHODS
For submission to Japanese regulatory agencies, additional information is included in Appendix C.
Test System
The tester strains used were the Salmonella typhimurium histidine auxotrophs TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537 as described by Ames et al. (1975) and Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA as described by Green and Muriel (1976). Salmonella tester strains were received directly from Dr. Bruce Ames, University of California, Berkeley and E. coli tester strains were received from the National Collection of Industrial and Marine Bacteria, Aberdeen, Scotland.
Tester strains TA98 and TA1537 are reverted from histidine dependence (auxotrophy) to histidine independence (prototrophy) by frameshift mutagens. Tester strain TA1535 is reverted by mutagens that cause basepair substitutions. Tester strain TA100 is reverted by mutagens that cause both frameshift and basepair substitution mutations. Specificity of the reversion mechanism in E. coli is sensitive to base-pair substitution mutations, rather than frameshift mutations (Green and Muriel, 1976).
Overnight cultures were prepared by inoculating from the appropriate master plate or from the appropriate frozen permanent stock into a vessel containing ~50 mL of culture medium. To assure that cultures were harvested in late log phase, the length o f incubation was controlled and monitored. Following inoculation, each flask was placed in a resting shaker/incubator at room temperature. The shaker/incubator was programmed to begin shaking at approximately 125 rpm
at 372C approximately 12 hours before the anticipated time of harvest. Each culture was monitored spectrophotometrically for turbidity and was harvested at a percent transmittance yielding a titer of approximately 109 cells per milliliter. The actual titers were determined by viable count tests on nutrient agar plates, and the data is on file but not presented in this report. The study was conducted to comply with OECD Guideline 471 (Genetic Toxicology: Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test), adopted July 1997 (published February 1998) and with the International Conference on Harmonisation o f Technical Requirements o f Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (1996 and 1997).
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
-70C or colder until used. Each bulk preparation of S9 was tested for its ability to metabolize 2aminoanthracene and 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene to forms mutagenic to Salmonella typhimurium TA100.

The S9 mix was prepared immediately before its use and contained 10% S9, SmM glucose-6-phosphate, 4 mM 6-nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate, 8 mM MgCl2 and 33 mM KC1 in a 100 mM phosphate buffer at pH 7.4. The Sham S9 mixture (Sham mix), containing 100 mM phosphate buffer at pH 7.4, was prepared immediately before its use. To confirm the sterility of the S9 and Sham mixes, a 0.5 mL aliquot of each was plated on selective agar.
Solubility Test
A solubility test was conducted to select the vehicle. The test was conducted using water, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethanol (EtOH), acetone, tetrahydrofuran (THF), acetonitrile, propylene glycol and polyethylene glycol. The test substance was tested to determine tire vehicle, selected in order of preference, that permitted preparation of the highest soluble or workable stock concentration, up to 50 mg/mL for aqueous solvents and 500 mg/mL for organic solvents.
Prelim inary Toxicity Test
The preliminary toxicity test was used to establish the dose-range over which the test substance would be tested. Vehicle and ten dose levels of the test substance were plated, one plate per dose, with overnight cultures of TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537 and W P2 uvrA on selective minimal agar in the presence and absence of Aroclor-induced rat liver S9. Dose levels tested were 6.7,10,33,67,100,333,667,1000,3333 and 5000 pg per plate.
M utagenicity Test
The mutagenicity test (initial and independent repeat tests) was used to evaluate the mutagenic potential of the test substance. Six dose levels of test substance (15, 50, 150, 500, 1500 and 5000 pg per plate) along with appropriate vehicle and positive controls were plated with TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537 and WP2 uvrA in the presence and absence of Aroclor-induced rat liver S9. All dose levels of test substance, vehicle controls and positive controls were plated in triplicate.
H ating and Scoring Procedures
The test system was exposed to the test substance via the plate incorporation methodology originally described by Ames et al. (1975) and updated by Maron and Ames (1983).
On the day o f its use, minimal top agar, containing 0.8 % agar (W/V) and 0.5 % NaCl (W/V), was melted and supplemented with L-histidine, D-biotin and L-tryptophan solution to a final concentration of 50 pM each. Top agar not used with S9 or Sham mix was supplemented with 25 mL of water for each 100 mL of minimal top agar. For the preparation of media and

reagents, all references to water imply sterile, deionized water produced by the Milli-Q Reagent W ater System. Bottom agar was Vogel-Bonner minimal medium E (Vogel and Bonner, 1956) containing 1.5 % (W/V) agar. Nutrient bottom agar was Vogel-Bonner minimal medium E containing 1.5 % (W/V) agar and supplemented with 2.5 % (W/V) Qxoid Nutrient Broth No. 2 (dry powder). Nutrient Broth was Vogel-Bonner salt solution supplemented with 2.5 % (W/V) Oxoid Nutrient Broth No. 2 (dry powder).
Each plate was labeled with a code system that identified the test substance, test phase, dose level, tester strain, and activation, as described in detail in BioReliance^ Standard Operating Procedures.
One-half (0.5) milliliter of S9 or Sham mix, 100 pL of tester strain and 25 pL of vehicle or test substance dilution were added to 2.0 mL of molten selective top agar at 452C. After vortexing, the mixture was overlaid onto the surface of 25 mL of minimal bottom agar. When plating the positive controls, the test substance aliquot was replaced by a 50 pL aliquot of appropriate positive control. After the overlay had solidified, the plates were inverted and
incubated for approximately 48 to 72 hours at 372C. Plates that were not counted immediately following the incubation period were stored at 2-8C until colony counting could be conducted (less than 10 days).
The condition o f the bacterial background lawn was evaluated for evidence of test substance toxicity by using a dissecting microscope. Precipitate was evaluated by visual examination without magnification. Toxicity and degree of precipitation were scored relative to the vehicle control plate using the codes shown below.

naked eye and any precipitate particles detected by the automated colony counter exceed 10% o f the revertant colony count (e.g., more than 3 particles on a plate with 30 revertants). These plates
are counted manually.
Revertant colonies for a given tester strain and activation condition, except for positive controls, were counted either entirely by automated colony counter or entirely by hand unless the plate exhibited toxicity.
Evaluation of Results
For each replicate plating, the mean and standard deviation of the number of revertants per plate were calculated and are reported.
For the test substance to be evaluated positive, it must cause a dose-related increase in the mean revertants per plate of at least one tester strain over a minimum of two increasing concentrations of test substance. Data sets for tester strains TA1535 and TA1537 were judged positive if the increase in mean revertants at the peak of the dose response is equal to or greater than 3.0-times the mean vehicle control value. Data sets for tester strains TA98, TA100 and WP2 uvrA were judged positive if the increase in mean revertants at the peak of the dose response is equal to or greater than 2.0-times the mean vehicle control value.
Criteria for a Valid Test
The following criteria must be met for the mutagenicity test to be considered valid. All Salmonella tester strain cultures must demonstrate the presence of the deep rough mutation (rfa) and the deletion in the wvrB gene. Cultures of tester strains TA98 and TA100 must demonstrate the presence of the pKMIOl plasmid R-factor. All WP2 uvrA cultures must demonstrate the deletion in the uvrA gene. All cultures must demonstrate the characteristic mean number of spontaneous revertants in the vehicle controls as follows (inclusive): TA98, 10 - 50; TA100,
80-240; TA1535, 5 - 45; TA1537, 3 -2 1 ; WP2 uvrA, 10-60. To ensure that appropriate numbers of bacteria are plated, tester strain culture titers must be greater than or equal to 0.3xl09 cells/mL. The mean of each positive control must exhibit at least a 3.0-fold increase in the number of revertants over the mean value of the respective vehicle control. A minimum of three non-toxic dose levels is required to evaluate test data. A dose level is considered toxic if one or both of the following criteria are met: (1) A >50 % reduction in the mean number of

Solubility Test
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Tetrahydrofuran (THF) was selected as the solvent of choice based on compatibility with the target cells and solubility of the test substance. The test substance was soluble but cloudy in tetrahydrofuran (THF) at a maximum concentration of approximately 200 mg/mL.
Preliminary Toxidty Test
The results of the preliminary toxicity test are presented in Tables 1 through 4. These data were generated in Experiment A 1. In the preliminary toxicity test, the maximum dose tested was 5000 pg per plate; this dose was achieved using a concentration of 200 mg/mL and a 25 pL plating aliquot. The test substance was a workable solution from 40 to 200 mg/mL and a soluble and clear solution from 0.27 to 27 mg/mL. Dose levels tested were 6.7, 10, 33, 67, 100, 333, 667,1000, 3333 and 5000 pg per plate. Precipitate was observed beginning at 100 pg per plate. No appreciable toxicity was observed. Due to tester strain culture contamination, tester strain TA100 in the presence and absence of S9 activation was only evaluated for precipitate and toxicity. Based on the findings of the toxicity test, the maximum dose plated in the mutagenicity test was 5000 pg per plate.
Mutagenicity Test
The results o f the mutagenicity test are presented in Tables 5 through 24 and summarized in Tables 25 and 26. These data were generated in Experiments B1 and B2. Dose levels tested were 15, 50, 150, 500, 1500 and 5000 pg per plate. Precipitate was observed beginning at 500 pg per plate. No appreciable toxicity was observed. For submission to Japanese regulatory agencies, pertinent additional information is included in Appendix C.
In Experiment B1 (Initial Mutagenicity Test), no positive mutagenic responses were observed with any of the tester strains in either the presence or absence of S9 activation.
In Experiment B2 (Independent Repeat Test), no positive mutagenic responses were observed with any of the tester strains in either the presence or absence of S9 activation.
CONCLUSION
All criteria for a valid study were met as described in the protocol. The results of the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test with an Independent Repeat Assay indicate that, under the conditions of this study, H-25171 did not cause a positive mutagenic response in either the presence or absence of Aroclor-induced rat liver S9.

Additional Mutations
LPS Repair R-fector rfa AuvrB +R - yuvrA -
Each S. typhimurium tester strain contains, in addition to a mutation in the histidine opcron, additional mutations that enhance sensitivity to some mutagens. The rfa mutation results in a cell wall deficiency that increases the permeability of the cell to certain classes of chemicals such as those containing large ring systems that would otherwise be excluded. The deletion in the avrB gene results in a deficient DNA excision-repair system. Tester strains TA98 and TA100 also contain the pKMIOl plasmid (carrying the R-fector). It has been suggested that the plasmid increases sensitivity to mutagens by modifying an existing bacterial DNA repair polymerase complex involved with die mismatch-repair process.
TA98 and TA1537 are reverted from histidine dependence (auxotrophy) to histidine independence (prototrophy) by frameshift mutagens. TA100 is reverted by both fiameshift and base substitution mutagens and TA1535 is reverted only by mutagens that cause base substitutions.
The K coli tester strain has an AT base pair at the critical mutation site within the trpE gene (Wilcox et al., 1990). Tester strain WP2 uvrA has a deletion in die uvrA gene resulting in a deficient DNA excision-repair system. Tryptophan revertants can arise due to a base change at the originally mutated site or by a base change elsewhere in the chromosome causing die original mutation to be suppressed. Thus, die specificity of the reversion mechanism is sensitive to base-pair substitution mutations (Green and Muriel, 1976).
The S. typhimurium tester strains were received directly from Dr. Bruce Ames, University of California, Berkeley. The 1 coli tester strain was received from the National Collection of Industrial and Marine Bacteria, Aberdeen, Scotland (United Kingdom).
7.0 EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN AND METHODOLOGY
The test substance will be tested at a minimum of five dose levels along with appropriate negative and positive controls with tester strains TA98, TA100, TAI535, TA1537 and WP2 uvrA with and without S9 activation. All dose levels of test substance, negative controls and positive controls will be plated in triplicate.

7.1 Solubility Determination
Unless the Sponsor has indicated the test substance vehicle, a solubility determination will be conducted to determine the maximum soluble concentration or workable suspension to a maximum of 50 rag/mL for aqueous vehicles and 500 mg/mL for organic vehicles. Vehicles compatible with this test system, in order of preference, include but arc not limited to deionized water (CAS 7732-18-5), dimethyl sulfoxide (CAS 67-68-5), ethanol (CAS 64-17-5) and acetone (CAS 67-64-1). The vehicle of choice will be the solvent, selected in order of preference, which permits preparation of the highest workable/soluble stock concentration, up to 50 mg/mL for aqueous vehicles and 500 mg/mL for organic vehicles.
1 2 Preliminary Toxicity Assay to Select Dose Levels
Selection of dose levels for the mutagenicity assay will be based upon the toxicity and precipitation profile of the test substance assessed in a preliminary toxicity assay. This preliminary assay will be conducted by exposing TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537 and WP2 uvrA to negative controls and to at least eight concentrations of test substance, one plate per dose level, in both the presence and absence of S9 activation. Unless indicated otherwise by the Sponsor, the highest dose will be the highest workable concentration in the vehicle of choice but not to exceed 5 mg/plate. In selecting dose levels for foe mutagenicity assay foe following guidelines will be employed. Doses will be selected such that precipitate does not interfere with manual scoring. Whenever possible, the highest dose for foe mutagenicity assay mil be selected to give some indication of toxicity without exceeding 5 mg/plate. For freely soluble, nontoxic test substances, foe highest dose level will be 5 mg/plate. For precipitating, nontoxic test substances, the highest dose level will be selected in an attempt to yield precipitate at only foe top one or two dose levels. The Sponsor will be consulted regarding dose selection if (1) the maximum dose level is selected based on precipitation and this dose level is less than 5 mg/plate or (2) foe maximum achievable test substance dose level is less than 5 mg/plate and this dose level is nontoxic.
7.3 Frequency and Route ofAdministration
The test system will be exposed to foe test substance via foe plate incorporation methodology originally described by Ames el a!, (1975) and updated by Maron and Ames (1983). This test system has been shown to detect a wide range of classes ofchemical mutagens (McCann et a!., 1975; McCann and Ames, 1976).
After the data generated in the first assay have been evaluated, the mutagenicity assay mil be repeated. The dose levels used in foe second assay will be foe same as those used in foe first assay unless foe Study Director determines that the dose levels should be changed due to an equivocal response, excessive cytotoxicity or

excessive precipitate. If the Sponsor is aware of specific metabolic requirements (e.g., azo compoundsX this information will be utilized in designing the assay, (e.g., activatitm system or treatment method). This guidance is based on the OECD Guideline 471 (adopted July 1997 and published February 1998) and ICH Guidance on Specific Aspects of Regulatory Genotoxicity Tests for Pharmaceuticals (1997).

-70C until used. Each batch of S9 homogenate will be assayed for its ability to metabolize 2-aminoanthraoene and 7,12-dimethylbenzanthracene to forms mutagenic to S. typhimurhm TA100.
Immediately prior to use, the S9 will be thawed and mixed with a cofactor pool to contain 10% S9 homogenate, SmM ghicose-6-pbosphate, 4 mM p-nicotinamide-ademne dinucleotide phosphate, 8 mM MgCl2and 33 mM KG in a 100 mM phosphate buffer at pH 7.4. This mixture is referred to as S9 mix. Sham mix will be 100 mM phosphate buffer at pH 7.4.
7.6 Preparation of Tester Strain
Overnight cultures will be inoculated from the appropriate master plate or from the appropriate frozen stock. To ensure that cultures are harvested in late log phase, the length of incubation will be controlled and monitored. At the end of the working day, each inoculated flask will be placed in a testing shaker/incubalor at room temperature. The shaker/incubator will be programmed to begin shaking at approximately 125 rpm at 372C approximately 12 hours before the anticipated time ofharvest
All cultures will be harvested by spectrophotometric monitoring of culture turbidity rather than by duration of incubation since overgrowth of cultures can cause loss of sensitivity to some mutagens. Cultures will be removed from incubation at a density of approximately 10*cells/mL.
7.7 Test System Identification
Each plate will be labeled with a code system that identifies the test substance, test phase, dose level, tester strain and activation type as described in BioReliance's Standard Operating Procedures.
7.8 Test Substance Preparation
Unless specified otherwise, test substance dilutions will be prepared immediately prior to use. All test substance dosing will be at room temperature under yellow light
7.9 Treatment ofTest System
One half milliliter (0.5 mL) of S9 mix or Sham mix, 100 of tester strain and 50 |jL of vehicle, test substance dilution or positive control will be added to 2.0 mL of molten selective top agar at 452C. When necessary to achieve die target concentration or eliminate toxic vehicle effects, aliquots of other than 50 of test substance/vehicle/positive control will be plated. The mixture will be vortex mixed and overlaid onto the surface of 25 mL of minimal bottom agar.

After the overlay has solidified, the plates will be inverted and incubated for approximately 48 to 72 hours at 372C. Plates that are not counted immediately following the incubation period will be stored at 2-8C.
7.10 Scoring
The condition of the bacterial background lawn will be evaluated for evidence of test substance toxicity and precipitate. Evidence of toxicity will be scored relative to the negative control plate and recorded along with the revertant count for that plate. Toxicity will be evaluated as a decrease in the number of revertant colonies per plate and/or a thinning or disappearance of the bacterial background lawn. Precipitation will be evaluated after the incubation period by visual examination without magnification.
7.11 Tester Strain Verification
On the day of use in the mutagenicity assay, all tester strain cultures will be checked for the appropriate genetic markets cited in 6.0.
8.0 CRITERIA FOR DETERMINATION OF A VALID TEST
The following criteria must be met for the mutagenicity assay to be considered valid:
8.1 Tester Strain Integrity
To demonstrate the presence of the rfa mutation, all & typhimurhon tester strain cultures must exhibit sensitivity to crystal violet To demonstrate die presence of the wvrB mutation, all S. typhimurium tester strain cultures must exhibit sensitivity to ultraviolet light To demonstrate the presence of the irvrA mutation, all coU tester strain cultures must exhibit sensitivity to ultraviolet light To demonstrate the presence of the pKMIOl plasmid R-factor, tester strain cultures of TA98 and TA100 must exhibit resistance to ampicillin.
8.2 Spontaneous Revertant Background Frequency
Based on historical control data, all tester strain cultures must exhibit characteristic number of spontaneous revertants per {date in the negative controls (vehicle). The mean revertants per plate must be within the following ranges (inclusive): TA98, 10 - 50; TA100, 80 - 240; TA1535, 5 - 45; TA1537, 3-21; WP2 wvrA, 10 - 60.
83 Tester Strain Titers
To ensure that appropriate numbers of bacteria are plated, all tester strain culture titers must be equal to or greater than 0.3x10*cells pet milliliter.

BioReliance Study Number AAS2XL502001,BTL
8.4 Positive Control Values
Each mean positive control value must exhibit at least a 3.0-fold increase over the respective mean negative control value (vehicle) far each tester strain.
8.5 Toxicity
A minimum of three non-toxic dose levels will be required to evaluate assay data. A dose level is considered toxic if it causes a >50% reduction in the mean number of revertants per plate relative to the mean negative control value (this reduction must be accompanied by an abrupt dose-dependent drop in the rrvertant count) or a reduction in the background lawn. In the event that less than three non-toxic dose levels are achieved, the affected portion of the assay will be repeated with an appropriate change in dose levels.
9.0 EVALUATION OF TEST RESULTS
For a test substance to be evaluated positive, it must cause a dose-related increase in the mean revertants per {date of at least one tester strain over a minimum of two increasing concentrations of test substance as specified below:
9.1 Strains TA1535 and TA1537
Data sets will be judged positive if the increase in mean revertants at the peak of the dose response is equal to or greater than 3.0-times the mean negative control value (vehicle).
9 2 Strains TA98, TA100 and WP2 uvrA
Data sets will be judged positive if die increase in mean revertants at the peak of the dose response is equal to or greater than 2.0-times the mean negative control value (vehicle).

6. Test Results - Judgement of the results
Judgement
Negative
Reason for judgement and referential matters:
No positive response was observed with any o f the tester strains in the presence and absence o f Aroclor-induced rat liver S9.
Referential matters
The vehicle and positive control values indicate that all tester strains were functioning correctly and were capable o f detecting a mutagen.
