*

Pharmacokinetic analysis was not possible in seven patients, and a full analysis was not possible in 19 patients.

The median half-life was 2.64 hours (range, 1.0 to 10.9 hours).

Cmax is reported as observed value.

§

Clearance is expressed as L/hour/m2 because of the body-surface area dosing used.
