JaCVAM statement
on BG1Luc Estrogen Receptor Transactivation Test Method for Identifying
Estrogen Receptor Agonists and Antagonists
At the meeting concerning the above method, held on 11 June 2013 at the National Instituteof Health Sciences (NIHS), Tokyo, Japan, the members of the Japanese Center for theValidation of Alternative Methods (JaCVAM) Regulatory Acceptance Board unanimously
endorsed the following statement:
BG1Luc Estrogen Receptor Transactivation Test Method for Identifying Estrogen
Receptor Agonists and Antagonists is considered to be useful as a screening ofendocrine disrupter substances as well as similar test methods for regulatory use.
Following the review of the results of OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation andDevelopment) Test Guideline OECD Test Guideline (TG) 457 and ICCVAM (InteragencyCoordinating Committee on the Validation of Alternative Methods) Test Method Evaluation
Report, The LUMI-CELL® ER (BG1Luc ER TA) Test Method: An In Vitro Assay for Identifying
Human Estrogen Receptor Agonist and Antagonist Activity of Chemicals, it is concluded that
BG1Luc Estrogen Receptor Transactivation Test Method for Identifying Estrogen Receptor Agonists
and Antagonists such as screening of endocrine disrupter substances are clearly beneficial.

The JaCVAM Regulatory Acceptance Board has been regularly kept informed of theprogress of the study, and this endorsement is based on an assessment of various documents,including, in particular, the evaluation report prepared by the JaCVAM ad hoc peer review
panel for endocrine disrupter testing.
