PharmacokineticsJune 2011

Pharmacokinetics of STA-9090 (ganetespib) and Docetaxel. This includes concentrations of these drugs in patients' blood at various protocol-specified times relative to the time of dose administration. These will be summarized by parameters including maximum concentration, total exposure and how fast the patient's body gets rid of the drug (known as Cmax, AUC, t1/2, respectively).
