Summary of the average (CV%) pharmacokinetic parameters from post-hoc bayesian estimates following protein i.v. injection in juvenile pigs

Form of protein n K (1/h) K12 (1/h) K21 (1/h) Vc (L) Thalf (h) Vehicle (unit/mL)
BChE/hSA produced in vitro 2 0.0579 (0.0) 0.0993 (100) 0.103 (99.9) 0.581 (0.0) 32.4 (29.8) 1.83 (0.0)
BChE produced transgenically (>70% tetramer) 4 0.689 (28.4) 0.553 (18.4) 0.592 (0.000845) 0.120 (42.9) 2.74 (12.6) 1.45 (0.0)

CV%: The intersubject variation, reported as a percentage (%) of coefficient of variation;

K: The elimination rate constant from the central compartment;

K12: The rate constant of the protein from the central to the first peripheral compartment;

K21: The rate constant of the protein from the first peripheral to the central compartment;

Vc: The volume of the central compartment following i.v. administration;

Thalf: The apparent terminal elimination half-life;

Vehicle: The response detected by the analytical assay that is considered as background activity in untreated juvenile pig plasma, not related to the administration of the protein, using 720 units = 1 mg purified plasma huBChE and assay conditions as described in. [29].
