estrogen, androgen, or thyroid 

pathways. 

In 2009, EPA developed the Estrogen 

Receptor (ER) Expert System (ERES) to 

help prioritize candidate chemicals 

specific to an estrogen receptor (ER) 

mediated pathway for testing in the Tier 

1 Endocrine Disruptor Screening 

Program. The ERES was initially 

developed for pesticide, food use inert 

ingredients and antimicrobial pesticides 

and predicts ER binding affinity based 

on data derived from two types of in 

vitro assays: ER binding and ER 

transcriptional assays. The FIFRA SAP 

reviewed the initial ERES approach 

including the transparency of the 

approach, biological endpoint 

definition, mechanistic interpretation, 

and model’s applicability domain 

(http://www.epa.gov/scipoly/sap/

meetings/2009/august/082509minutes.

pdf). 

EPA incorporated the 2009 SAP’s 

recommendations and is expanding the 

ERES training set through the use of 

chemical read across techniques (i.e., 

using data from a tested chemical for a 

particular property or effect to a similar 

untested chemical) and in vitro HTP 

assay data. This SAP review will seek 

comment on the expansion of the ERES 

training set to cover a larger chemical 

universe and the approach to 

interpreting the HTP data to inform the 

ERES. The SAP will also be asked to 

comment on various aspects of the HTP 

data including transparency of how the 

data were generated, processed, and 

analyzed. 

While this SAP is focused on the 

estrogenic toxicity pathway, the 

recommendations may be more broadly 

applied for additional toxicity pathways 

(e.g., androgen and thyroid). In addition, 

this SAP review will establish a solid 

foundation upon which the agency 

seeks to build upon as we advance the 

use of these computational toxicology 

tools beyond EDSP chemical 

prioritization and into Tier 1 data 

replacement. 

C. FIFRA SAP Documents and Meeting 

Minutes 

EPA’s background paper, related 

supporting materials, charge/questions 

to FIFRA SAP, FIFRA SAP composition 

(i.e., members and ad hoc members for 

this meeting), and the meeting agenda 

will be available at least 15 days prior 

to the meeting. In addition, the Agency 

may provide additional background 

documents as the materials become

copies of these documents, and certain 

other related documents that might be 

available electronically, at http://www.

FIFRA SAP will prepare meeting 

minutes summarizing its 

recommendations to the Agency 

approximately 90 days after the 

meeting. The meeting minutes will be
