TABLE 3

Estimated AUC0–120h of siponimod and metabolites in the plasma of healthy men after a single 10-mg oral dose of [14C]siponimod

The AUC0–120 h is mean ± S.D., N = 4 (nmol*h/l), mean values of N = 4 subjects and individual values.

  • AUC0–120 h, area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 120 h; NC, not calculable, not meaningful.

  • a Here, 58.8%, including P73 formed by methyl-esterification of parent drug during sample preparation.

  • b This might be due to the formation of metabolite M17, which has a long half-life.

  • c Total of radiolabeled components.
