Results of transport studies for 3 μM [14C]lapatinib in MDCKII-MDR1 or MDCKII-BCRP cell monolayers

Data are the means ± S.D. from three monolayers over 90 min for MDR1- and 180 min for BCRP-expressing MDCKII monolayers. All donor compartments contained Lucifer yellow (100 μM) to determine monolayer integrity. Amprenavir served as a positive control for Pgp efflux and cimetidine for BCRP efflux. The measured radiochemical purity of [14C]lapatinib was >97%, and no metabolic or chemical degradation was detected during the studies.
