- Remarks on result:

- Conclusions:
- Mutagenicity (Ames test) model (CAESAR) version 2.1.13 predicts the substance is NON-MUTAGENIC.
- Executive summary:
The prediction of Mutagenicity (Ames test) model (CAESAR;version 2.1.13) on the target compound may be considered adequate. The main reason for the low ADI value is that the target compounds has a fragment defined by the SMILES: FC=C that is an uncommon fragment not present in the compounds of the training set of the model.
Despite the Applicability Domain tool within VEGA identifies some issues to be verified, using a weight of evidence approach combining several VEGA models and read-across, it allows to support a non mutagenic assessment for the target compound. Indeed, there is agreement between the prediction and all similar compounds containing Fluorine atoms, which are experimentally non mutagenic.

- Conclusions:
- The prediction of the ISS model (version 1.0.2) is Mutagenic but the result presents some issues. The SA identified in the target compound demonstrated to be relevant when the halogen atom is a Chlorine while in the target compound there is a Fluorine atom. In this specific dataset there are no similar compounds containing Fluorine. From the analysis with the read-across approach of the compounds containing Fluorine atoms it appears that all of them are not mutagenic in Ames test.
- Executive summary:
The prediction of Mutagenicity (Ames test) model (ISS; version 1.0.2) on the target compound is not adequate on its own because:
- its low ADI value
- the low similarity of the analogues (considering also those with the same fragment in their structure),
- the piece of information related to SA4 structural alert seems to be not relevant in this case, since it is often associated to Chlorine halogen atom and not to a Fluorine
- The following Atom Centered Fragments have been found in the molecule, but they are not found or rarely found in the model's training set:
- Fragment defined by the SMILES: FC(F)(F)C; The fragment has less than 3 occurrences in the model's training set
- Fragment defined by the SMILES: FC=C; The fragment has never been found in the model's training set
Combination of other more reliable QSAR models and read-across allows to support a non mutagenic assessment for the target compound.

- Executive summary:
The prediction of Mutagenicity (Ames test) model (KNN/Read-Across) on the target compound may be considered adequate. The main reason for the low ADI value is that the target compounds has a fragment defined by the SMILES: FC=C that is an uncommon fragment not present in the compounds of the training set of the model.

Additional information
Gene mutation (Bacterial Reverse Mutation Assay/Ames test)
Five VEGA QSAR models (VEGA Mutagenicity (Ames test) CONSENSUS model (version 1.0.2), Caesar hybrid model for bacterial reverse mutation (Ames test) (version 2.1.13), VEGA k-NN/read-across model to predict Ames mutagenicity (version 1.0.0), VEGA Mutagenicity (Ames test) SARpy/IRFMN Model (v. 1.0.7) and VEGA implementation of Mutagenicity ISS Model (version 1.0.2)) were available and were used in a weight of evidence approach. All models used in VEGA except one predicted the target compound as a Non-Mutagen, but all with a low score of applicability domain index (ADI). The models Consensus, KNN/Read Across, SarPy/IRFMN and CAESAR predict the compound as non-mutagenic, Consensus with a score of 0.15 (where 1 is the max) and the others three models with a ADI of 0.54 (where 1 is the max); however the ADI of the ISS model, predicting the target as mutagenic, is even lower (0.3). The mutagenic prediction is due to the match with the structural alert (SA) 4 monohaloalkene, but this SA is often associated to Chlorine halogen atoms and not to Fluorine. If we look at the most similar compounds of all models, we can see that the fluorinated compounds are always not mutagens. The reason why the ADI is low is that the target compound has an ethene fluoride structure that is an uncommon fragment not recognized by any model. In conclusion, despite the fact that the compound does not fall into the applicability domain of all models, using a weight of evidence approach, we can assess that probably the compound is not a mutagen.
