| D (Not classifiable as to human carcinogenicity) | Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment (US EPA, 1986) |
| Carcinogenic potential cannot be determined | Proposed Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment (US EPA, 1996) |
- Under the proposed Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment (U.S. EPA, 1996), it is concluded that the carcinogenic potential of cumene cannot be determined because no adequate data, such as well-conducted long-term animal studies or reliable human epidemiological studies, are available for any assessment.
- This may be a synopsis of the full weight-of-evidence narrative.
