- Concentration:
- 7 groups of 5 CBA/J female mice were treated on the dorsal surface of both ears once per day for 3 days with the test article (climbazole) at 1, 5, 10, 20% (w/v) dissolved in the vehicle DMSO, with the vehicle for the positive control AOO, or with the positive control (HCA at 35%).
- No. of animals per dose:

- Details on study design:
- ANIMAL ASSIGNMENT AND TREATMENT
- Name of test method: Local Lymph Node Assay
- Criteria used to consider a positive response: A 3-fold or greater increase in proliferative activity relative to the concurrent vehicle control is considered a positive response.
TREATMENT PREPARATION AND ADMINISTRATION:
On each day of dosing, the test article was prepared at the appropriate concentrations (w/v) in volumetric flasks by dissolving the appropriate amount of test article in DMSO. All preparations were vortexed to mix. Dosing formulations were clear-colorless to off-white liquids.
On each day of dosing, the positive control Α-Hexylcinnamaldehyde (HCA) was prepared at 35% in a glass tube by dissolving the appropriate volume of HCA in Acetone:olive oil:: 4:1 (AOO). The preparation was vortexed to mix and dosed as a clear yellow solution.
7 groups of 5 CBA/J female mice were treated on the dorsal surface of both ears once per day for 3 consecutive days as follows:
GROUP TREATMENT VEHICLE DOSE
1 Vehicle DMSO -
2 Climbazole (GTS20788) DMSO 1% (w/v)
3 Climbazole (GTS20788) DMSO 5% (w/v)

5 Climbazole (GTS20788) DMSO 20% (w/v)
6 Positive Control Vehicle AOO -
7 HCA AOO 35% (w/v)
On day 6, the mice were injected, i.v., with 20 µCi of 3H-thymidine in sterile saline. Five hours later, the mice were euthanized and the draining auricular lymph nodes were removed. The lymph node cells were treated with 5% trichloroacetic acid (TCA) to precipitate the DNA. The resulting pellets were counted in a β-scintillation counter to determine incorporation of the 3H-thymidine. - Positive control substance(s):
- hexyl cinnamic aldehyde (CAS No 101-86-0)
- Statistics:
- Statistical analysis of the DPM data was performed using SAS version 6.12, a statistical analysis software package developed by SAS institute Inc. Individual DPM values were analyzed by log transformation (base 10) of the data. Comparisons with the control group were based on the least significante difference criterion. All statistical tests were conducted at a 1%, two-tailed probability level.
Body weight and change in body weight means and SEM were calculated for each group. Evaluation of equality of means were made by a one way analysis of variance using the F distribution to assess statistical significance using SYSTAT version 9.01 developed by SPSS, Inc. If statistically significant differences were found, a Dunnett’s test was used to determine the degree of significance from the control mean.
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- The positive control, 35% (v/v) HCA, resulted in a stimulation index (SI) of 7.77 (see Table below). A 3-fold or greater increase in proliferative activity relative to the concurrent AOO control is considered a positive response.

All animals appeared normal throughout the study. The application sites on the mice from the positive control group appeared wet on days 2-5.
Mean body weights at day 1 and day 6 and mean changes in body weights were evaluated. There were no statistically significant differences observed between any of the treatment groups. Therefore, the test articles did not appear to cause any overt toxicity.
At termination, the lymph nodes of the mice treated with the positive control were enlarged relative to the lymph nodes from the positive control vehicle treated mice but otherwise appeared normal.

Any other information on results incl. tables
Dosing solutions were analyzed for concentration. All, day 1 dose formulations met the acceptance criteria of 90 -110% of target concentration and ≤5% RSD and were determined to be accurately prepared. No test article was detected in the vehicle control sample.
Samples from the top, middle and bottom of the 1 and 20% dose formulations were also analyzed to assess the homogeneity and stability. All samples met the acceptance criteria and were determined to be homogeneous and stable at 2-8°C for at least eight weeks.
Mean body weights at day 1 and day 6 and mean changes in body weights were evaluated (Table below). There were no statistically significant differences observed between any of the treatment groups. Therefore, the test articles did not appear to cause any overt toxicity.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not sensitising
- Remarks:
- Migrated information up to 20% (w/v) of climbazole tested
- Conclusions:
- A test material is considered to have skin sensitizing activity if, at one or more concentrations, it induces a 3 -fold or greater increase in proliferative activity relative to the concurrent vehicle treated control. Thus, a stimulation index ≥3 is regarded as a positive response. Treatment with climbazole at doses up to and including 20% did not result in stimulation indices of 3 or greater and hance is not considered to have skin sensitizing activity.
- Executive summary:
The purpose of this study was to determine if the test articles would induce a hypersensitivity response in mice as measured by the proliferation of lymphocytes in the draining lymph nodes.
Seven groups of 5 CBA/J female mice each were treated on the dorsal surface of both ears once per day for 3 consecutive days. Group 1: DMSO (vehicle control); Group 2: 1% (w/v) climbazole; Group 3: 5% (w/v) climbazole; Group 4: 10% (w/v) climbazole; Group 5: 20% (w/v) climbazole; Group 6: AOO (positive control vehicle); Group 7: 35% (w/v) HCA.
On day 6, the mice were injected, i.v. with 20 µCi of 3H-thymidine in sterile saline. Five hours later, the mice were euthanized and the draining auricular lymph nodes were removed. The lymph node cells were treated with 5% TCA to precipitate the DNA. The resulting pellets were counted in a ß-scintillation counter to determine incorporation of the 3H-thymidine.
All animals appeared normal throughout the study. The application sites on the mice from the positive control group appeared wet on days 2-5. The AOO treated animals exhibited wet ears on day 3-5. Mild signs of skin irritation in the form of very slight edema were noted on the ears of the animals treated with 1% climbazole on day 4, and on the ears of the animals treated with 5, 10 and 20% climbazole on days 3 and 4.
Mean body weights at day 1 and day 6 and mean changes in body weights were evaluated. There were no statistically significant differences observed between any of the treatment groups. Therefore, the test article did not appear to cause any overt toxicity. At termination, the lymph nodes of the mice treated with the positive control were enlarged relative to the lymph nodes from the positive control vehicle treated mice but otherwise appeared normal. The lymph nodes from the mice in the vehicle treated groups and all test article treated groups were normal in size and appearance.
The positive control, 35% (v/v) HCA, resulted in a stimulation index (SI) of 7.77. A 3-fold or greater increase in proliferative activity relative to the concurrent AOO control is considered a positive response. Thus, the sensitivity of the test system was demonstrated.
Exposure to climbazole at 1, 5, 10 and 20% (w/v) resulted in stimulation indices of 0.91, 0.76, 1.19, and 1.08, respectively. No statistically significant differences were found between the groups treated with climbazole and the DMSO vehicle control. Treatment with climbazole at doses up to and including 20% did not result in stimulation indices of 3 or greater and hence is not considered to have skin sensitizing activity.
