[Rationale for the Classification] Based on (1) and (2), clear evidence of carcinogenicity including malignant tumors was observed in two animal species, and based on (3), this substance is a target substance in the public announcement on guidelines in order to prevent the impairment of worker's health caused by the chemical substances decided by the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare based on paragraph (3) of Article 28 of the Industrial Safety and Health Act, and emphasizing these, it was classified in Category 1B. Also, based on the new findings, the classification result was changed. [Evidence Data] (1) In a two-year carcinogenicity study with rats dosed by feeding (OECD TG 451, GLP), increases in the incidences of squamous cell carcinoma and squamous cell papilloma of the forestomach, and transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder were observed in males, which were considered to be clear evidence of carcinogenicity in male rats. In females, an increase in the incidence of squamous cell papilloma of the forestomach was observed, which was considered to be evidence of carcinogenicity in female rats (Results from Carcinogenicity Studies (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2008), IARC 123 (2020)). (2) In a two-year carcinogenicity study with mice dosed by feeding (OECD TG 451, GLP), an increase in the incidence of squamous cell papilloma of the forestomach was observed in males, which was considered to be evidence of carcinogenicity in male mice. In females, no clear increase in the incidence of tumor was observed (Results from Carcinogenicity Studies (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, 2008), IARC 123 (2020)). (3) This substance is a target substance in the public announcement on guidelines in order to prevent the impairment of worker's health caused by the chemical substances decided by the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare based on paragraph (3) of Article 28 of the Industrial Safety and Health Act (guidelines in order to prevent the impairment of worker's health, announcement No. 27 on February 7, 2020). (4) As for the classification results by domestic and international organizations, the IARC classified this substance in Group 2B (IARC 123 (2020)), the Japan Society For Occupational Health (JSOH) classified it in Group 2B (Recommendation of Occupational Exposure Limits (2020): Classification in 2019). [Reference Data, etc.] (5) As for the assessment of carcinogenicity of this substance, no human data were available (IARC 123 (2020)). |
