DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND

National Toxicology Program (NTP)
Interagency Center for the Evaluation
of Alternative Toxicological Methods
(NICEATM); Draft Performance
Standards for the Murine Local Lymph
Node Assay: Request for Comments
National Institute of
Environmental Health Sciences
(NIEHS), National Institutes of Health
(NIH).
ACTION: Request for comments.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Murine Local Lymph
Node Assay (LLNA) is the first
alternative test method evaluated and
recommended by the Interagency
Coordinating Committee on the
Validation of Alternative Methods
(ICCVAM). It was subsequently
accepted by regulatory authorities to
determine the allergic contact dermatitis
potential of chemicals and products. In
January 2007, the U.S. Consumer
Product Safety Commission (CSPC)
submitted a nomination requesting that
NICEATM and ICCVAM assess the
validation status of (1) The LLNA as a
stand-alone assay for potency
determination for hazard classification
purposes; (2) modified LLNA protocols;
(3) the LLNA limit test; (4) the use of
LLNA to test mixtures, aqueous
solutions, and metals; and (5) the
applicability domain for LLNA. In order
to facilitate the review of the modified
LLNA protocols, ICCVAM proposed
developing performance standards for
the LLNA. In May 2007, a Federal
Register notice was published (Vol. 72,
No. 95, pages 27815–27817, May 17,
2007) requesting comments and data
relevant to these nominated activities.
In June 2007, the Scientific Advisory
Committee on Alternative Toxicological
Methods (SACATM) endorsed the
nominated activities as high priorities
for ICCVAM. In response to SACATM
comments, along with those provided
by the public in response to the
previous Federal Register notice,
ICCVAM also endorsed these activities
as high priorities. ICCVAM
subsequently prepared draft
performance standards for the LLNA
and now requests public comments on
this draft document, which is available
on the NICEATM/ICCVAM Web site at:
(https://iccvam.niehs.nih.gov/methods/
immunotox/immunotox.htm) or by
contacting NICEATM (see FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT below).
DATES: Submit comments on or before
October 29, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The LLNA is an alternative test
method used for skin sensitization
testing that reduces the number of
animals needed, reduces the time
required for testing, and can
substantially reduce or avoid pain and
distress associated with traditional
guinea pig testing methods. The LLNA
was the first alternative test method
evaluated and recommended by
ICCVAM and based on the
recommendations of ICCVAM and an
independent scientific peer review
panel, the LLNA has been accepted by
U.S. and international regulatory
authorities as an alternative to the
guinea pig maximization test and
Buehler test for assessing allergic
contact dermatitis (EPA 2003; ISO 2002;
OECD 2002). Since 2003, ICCVAM has
routinely developed performance
standards for test methods; however,
because the concept of performance
standards was not developed by
ICCVAM until 2003, they were not
developed during the ICCVAM
evaluation of the LLNA in 1998 (NIH
Publication No. 99–4494, available:
(https://iccvam.niehs.nih.gov/docs/
immunotox_docs/llna/llnarep.pdf).
In January 2007, CSPC submitted a
nomination requesting that NICEATM
and ICCVAM assess the validation
status of (1) The LLNA as a stand-alone
assay for potency determination for
classification purposes; (2) modified
LLNA protocols; (3) the LLNA limit test;
(4) the use of LLNA to test mixtures,
aqueous solutions, and metals; and (5)
the applicability domain for LLNA.
ICCVAM endorsed the nomination and
also decided to develop performance
standards to facilitate evaluation of
modified LLNA protocols to the
traditional LLNA. In May 2007, a
Federal Register notice was published
requesting comments and data relevant
to these activities (Vol. 72, No. 95, pages
27815–27817, May 17, 2007; available,
