SECTION 4. FIRST-AID MEASURES:
After Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air; if breathing is difficult, give oxygen; if breathing stops, give artificial respiration
After skin contact: flush with copious amounts of water; remove contaminated clothing and shoes; call a physician
After eye contact: check for and remove contact lenses; flush with copious amounts of water; assure adequate flushing by separating the eyelids with fingers; call a physician
After swallowing: if swallowed, wash out mouth with copious amounts of water; call a physician


SECTION 5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES:
Suitable extinguishing agents: water spray, carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder, or foam
Protective equipment: wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing to prevent contact with skin and eyes
Unusual fire hazard: may emit toxic fumes under fire conditions such as carbon monoxide, etc.


SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES:
Person-related safety precautions: cordon off area of spill; wear self-contained breathing apparatus, protective clothing and heavy rubber gloves
Measures for cleaning/collecting: absorb solutions with finely- powdered liquid-binding material (diatomite, universal binders); decontaminate surfaces and equipment by scrubbing with alcohol; dispose of contaminated material according to Section 13


SECTION 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE:
Information for safe handling: avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing; material may be an irritant
Storage: store solid and solutions at -20 ºC


SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION:
Personal protective equipment as follows:
Breathing equipment: NIOSH/MSHA-approved respirator
Protection of hands: handle with Nitrile rubber gloves with minimum thickness of 0.11 mm (4.3 mil). This recommendation should not be interpreted as offering an approval for any specific use conditions. Please review this recommendation with a safety officer to evaluate if it is appropriate for the anticipated use.
Eye protection: chemical safety goggles


SECTION 9. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES:
Form: crystalline solid; granular or powder
Color: white to off-white
Odor: none
Melting point/Melting range: 213-224 ºC
Danger of explosion: none
Solubility in / Miscibility with water: very poorly soluble in water; maximum solubility in plain water is estimated to be about 10-50 µM; buffers, serum, or other additives may increase or decrease the aqueous solubility
Solvent content: none
Organic solvents: soluble in DMSO at 33 mg/mL; soluble in ethanol at 1.7 mg/mL with warming


SECTION 10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY:
Stability: stable if stored as directed; avoid strong oxidizing agents
Thermal decomposition / conditions to be avoided: protect from light and heat
Dangerous products of decomposition: thermal decomposition may produce toxic gases such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen oxides


SECTION 11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION:
RTECS #: not available
Acute toxicity: oral toxicity (NOAEL): 2000 mg/kg (mouse), >2000 mg/kg (dog) - toxicity data from the Pfizer MSDS dated January 11, 2012 for Axitinib tablets
