TABLE 2

Pharmacokinetic/metric parameters determined by NCA of total brain and plasma concentration-time profiles after a single oral dose (30 mg/kg) of ponatinib in FVB wild-type, Bcrp1(−/−), Mdr1a/b(−/−), and Mdr1a/b(−/−)Bcrp1(−/−) mice (N = 4 at each time point)

Data are presented as the mean or mean ± S.E.M, unless otherwise indicated. Data for the wild-type mice were previously reported (Laramy et al., 2017) and are included in this present study to compare with the three other genotypes that lack efflux transporters.
