Schematic description of target-mediated drug (or ligand) disposition. The ligand L binds reversibly (k on/k off) to the target R to form the ligand–target complex RL, which is irreversibly removed via a first order rate process (k e(RL)), and in addition is eliminated via a first order process (k e(L) = Cl (L)/V c)
