The National Toxicology Program (NTP) convened the NTP Technical Reports Peer Review Panel (“the Panel”) on March 26-28, 2018, to peer review two Draft NTP Technical Reports on Cell Phone Radiofrequency Microwave Radiation. Meeting information, including the draft reports, is available at the NTP website (https://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/go/36051). A meeting report will be prepared and posted to the NTP website when completed
Neoplastic Lesions: GSM Modulation
Male Hsd:Sprague Dawley SD rats, exposed to GSM-modulated cell phone RF Microwave Radiation at 900 MHz
- Panel 2 voted to recommend (8 yes, 3 no, 0 abstentions) the conclusion,
Clear evidence of carcinogenic activity of male Hsd:Sprague Dawley SD rats based on incidences of malignant schwannoma in the heart
- Panel 2 voted to recommend (7 yes, 4 no, 0 abstentions) the conclusion’
Some evidence of carcinogenic activity of male Hsd:Sprague Dawley SD rats based on incidences of malignant glioma in the brain.
- Panel 2 voted to recommend (6 yes, 4 no, 1 abstention) the conclusion,
Some evidence of carcinogenic activity of male Hsd:Sprague Dawley SD rats based on incidences of pheochromocytoma (benign, malignant, or complex combined) in the adrenal medulla
Nonneoplastic Lesions: GSM Modulation
- Panel 2 voted to accept unanimously (11 yes, 0 no, 0 abstentions) the conclusion as written,
Increases in nonneoplastic lesions in the heart, brain, and prostate gland of male rats occurred with exposures to GSM cell phone RF Microwave Radiation at 900 MHz.
- Panel 2 voted to accept unanimously (11 yes, 0 no, 0 abstentions) the conclusion as written
Increases in nonneoplastic lesions in the heart, thyroid gland, and adrenal gland in female rats occurred with exposures to GSM cell phone RF Microwave Radiation at 900 MHz.
