- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Cmax (maximum concentration of the analyte in plasma) up to 48 hours after drug administration AUC0-tz (area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over the time interval from 0 to the time of the last quantifiable data point) up to 48 hours after drug administration AUC0-∞ (area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over the time interval from 0 extrapolated to infinity) up to 48 hours after drug administration
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method λz (terminal rate constant in plasma) up to 48 hours after drug administration CLR,t1-t2 (renal clearance of the analyte from the time point t1 until the time point t2) up to 48 hours after drug administration Assessment of tolerability by investigator on a 4-point scale day 3 Number of patients with clinically relevant findings in 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) up to 3 days after last drug administration Number of patients with adverse events up to 3 days after last drug administration t1/2 (terminal half-life of the analyte in plasma) up to 48 hours after drug administration CL/F (total clearance of the analyte in the plasma after extravascular administration) up to 48 hours after drug administration fet1-t2 (fraction of analyte eliminated in urine from time point t1 to time point t2) up to 48 hours after drug administration MRTpo (mean residence time of the analyte in the body after po administration) up to 48 hours after drug administration Vz/F (apparent volume of distribution during the terminal phase λz following an extravascular dose) up to 48 hours after drug administration Aet1-t2 (amount of analyte that is eliminated in urine from the time point t1 to time point t2) up to 48 hours after drug administration tmax (time from dosing to maximum concentration) up to 48 hours after drug administration %AUCtz-∞ (the percentage of the AUC0-∞ that is obtained by extrapolation) up to 48 hours after drug administration Number of patients with clinically relevant changes in vital signs up to 3 days after last drug administration
