Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to the Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC0-t) of Tepotinib
Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) from time zero (= dosing time) to the last sampling time (tlast) at which the concentration is at or above the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ), calculated using the mixed log linear trapezoidal rule (linear up/log down).
Time frame: Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post-dose
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero Extrapolated to Infinity (AUC0-inf) of Tepotinib
AUC0-inf was calculated as AUC0-t + AUC from time tlast extrapolated to infinity (AUCextra). AUCextra represents the extrapolated part of AUC0-inf calculated by Clastpred/lambda z, where Clastpred was the predicted plasma concentration at the last sampling time point at which the measured plasma concentration was at or above the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) and lambda z was the apparent terminal rate constant determined from the terminal slope of the log-transformed plasma concentration curve.
Time frame: Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post-dose
Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Tepotinib
Cmax was obtained directly from the concentration versus time curve.
Time frame: Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post-dose
Time to Reach the Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Tepotinib
Tmax was obtained directly from the concentration versus time curve.
Time frame: Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post-dose
Terminal Half-Life (t1/2) of Tepotinib
This platform is for informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional.
t1/2 was defined as the time taken for the plasma concentration or the amount of drug in the body to be reduced by half.
Time frame: Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post-dose
Apparent Volume of Distribution During Terminal Phase (Vz/f) for Tepotinib
Vz/f is defined as the theoretical volume in which the total amount of drug would need to be uniformly distributed to produce the desired plasma concentration of a drug. Vz/f during the terminal phase was reported.
Time frame: Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post-dose
Apparent Total Body Clearance (CL/f) of Tepotinib
CL/f following oral administration was calculated as Dose/AUC0-inf, where AUC0-inf calculated as AUC0-t + AUC from time tlast extrapolated to infinity (AUCextra). AUCextra represents the extrapolated part of AUC0-inf calculated by Clastpred/lambda z, where Clastpred was the predicted plasma concentration at the last sampling time point at which the measured plasma concentration was at or above the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) and lambda z was the apparent terminal rate constant determined from the terminal slope of the log-transformed plasma concentration curve.
Time frame: Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post-dose
Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs, TEAEs Leading to Death, TEAEs Leading to Discontinuation
An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. An AE was any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. A serious adverse event (SAE) was an AE that resulted in any of the following outcomes: death; life threatening; persistent/significant disability/incapacity; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; congenital anomaly/birth defect or was otherwise considered medically important. The term TEAE is defined as AEs starting or worsening after the first intake of the study drug. TEAEs included both Serious TEAEs and non-serious TEAEs.
Time frame: Baseline up to Day 59
Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Changes From Baseline in Laboratory Parameters, 12-lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) Findings and Vital Signs
Vital signs included oral body temperature, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and pulse rate. The 12-lead ECGs were recorded after the participants have rested for at least 5 minutes in supine position. Laboratory parameters included hematology, biochemistry, urinalysis, and coagulation. Number of participants with clinically significant change from baseline in vital signs, ECG and laboratory parameters were reported. Clinical Significance was decided by the investigator.
Time frame: Baseline up to Day 59
