  • GFJ, grapefruit juice-drug interaction studies; NA, not available; rCYP, recombinant CYP3A4.

  • a Pharmacokinetic parameters are derived by applying noncompartmental analysis to the PBPK-simulated i.v. profile that best fits the observed.

  • b For the indirect method, the fraction absorbed is assumed 1.

  • c Data are from Galetin et al., 2008.

  • d Data are from Gertz et al., 2008.

  • e Data are from Gertz et al., 2010.
