  • AUClast, area under the curve, calculated to the last observable time point; AUC∞, area under the curve, extrapolated to infinity; DAUC, dose-normalized AUC; MRTlast, mean residence time, calculated to the last observable time point; ND, not determined; t1/2, half-life; CL, clearance; Vss, apparent volume of distribution at steady state

  • a Thirty milligrams per rabbit (9.17 mg/kg average).

  • b Dose-normalized by dividing the parameter by the nominal dose in milligrams per kilogram.

  • c Not determined because the terminal elimination phase was not observed.

  • d Bioavailability determined by dividing the individual p.o., s.c., or s.l. DAUClast values by the average i.v. DAUClast value.
