South Africa named a team of 32 athletes Thursday for the event in Lyon.
It will be the first major meet that the world's most famous disabled athlete will miss as he prepares for his murder trial in the shooting death of girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.
Charged with premeditated murder in Steenkamp's killing, the double-amputee runner will return to court in South Africa on August 19 - the day after the able-bodied world championships, where he had intended to run, conclude in Moscow.
Pistorius has dropped out of all competition this year to focus on his trial. He denies murder in Steenkamp's fatal shooting.
