Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Area Under the Curve From Time Zero to Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUClast)0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours post dose

AUClast = area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0 (predose) to the time of the last measureable concentration (Clast). PK parameters derived from subject's concentration data; collected Period 1, Day 1 to Day 4; Period 2, Day 1 to Day 4.

Area Under the Curve From Time Zero to Extrapolated Infinite Time (AUC Infinity)0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours post dose

AUCinf = Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 (predose) extrapolated to infinite time; measured in nanograms times hour per milliliter (ng\*hr/mL). Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters derived from subject's concentration data; collected Period 1, Day 1 to Day 4; Period 2, Day 1 to Day 4.

Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax)0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours post dose

Cmax = maximum observed plasma concentration. Measured in nanograms per milliter (ng/mL); collected Period 1, Day 1 to Day 4; Period 2, Day 1 to Day 4.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Time to Reach Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax)0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours post dose

Tmax = time (hours) to maximum plasma concentration (Cmax). Observed directly from data as time of first occurrence; PK parameters derived from subject's concentration data; collected Period 1, Day 1 to Day 4; Period 2, Day 1 to Day 4.

Plasma Elimination Half-life (t1/2)0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours post dose

t1/2 = terminal elimination half-life in hours; ln 2/kel, where kel is the termination phase rate constant calculated by a linear regression of the log-linear concentration-time curve. Only those data points judged to describe the terminal log-linear decline were used in the regression. PK parameters derived from subject's concentration data; collected Period 1, Day 1 to Day 4; Period 2, Day 1 to Day 4.
