The known carcinogenic effects of ethylene oxide will be summarized, with citations from current scientific literature.

A hazard characterization consisting of a weight-of-evidence and dose-response relationships including if appropriate cancer unit risk factor(s) will be developed.

The assessment documents will be peer reviewed within the Agency and by experts outside the Agency according to the established IRIS procedures.
