Inadequate information to assess carcinogenic potential	Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment (U.S. EPA, 2005)

Basis:

Under the Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment (U.S. EPA, 2005a), there is "inadequate information to assess the carcinogenic potential" of bromobenzene.
This may be a synopsis of the full weight-of-evidence narrative.
