  • BID, twice daily; QD, once daily; SD, single dose.

  • a The route of administration was oral in all cases.

  • b Values were extracted from the Drug Interaction Database and calculated as the change in mean AUC values.

  • c AUC change observed with 421A/C genotype and was not statistically different from control.

  • d Change in AUC was calculated using healthy historical controls.
