Citation:

WOLF, D. C., M. T. MARTIN, AND M. COPLEY. The Relevance of Rodent-Specific Tumors in Cancer Risk Assessment. Presented at Society of Toxicologic Pathology, Washington, DC, June 21 - 25, 2009.

Impact/Purpose:

Examine the relevance for risk asessment using MOA data and understanding of general cancer pathways.

Description:

Laboratory animal species have organs that do not specifically occur in humans and somtimes tumors arise in these organs. The lack of direct site concordance frequently results in significant debate on the human relevance of tumors that arise from rodent specific organs. The relevance for risk assessment will be examined through the use of available data for mode of action analysis and understanding of general cancer pathways
