1

For preclinical pharmacokinetic analyses, female CD-1 mice were administered a single dose of CPX-351 at 5 units/kg;

2

For the clinical dataset, blood plasma was obtained from Phase I study patients with advanced hematologic malignancies following administration of single-dose CPX-351 at 101 units/m2 by i.v. infusion over 90 minutes;

3

Cmax, initial observed peak plasma concentration (preclinical) or observed maximum plasma concentration (clinical). Preclinical Cmax based on observed data at 1hr;

4

Values are reported as mean ± SD;

5

AUC0–48 based on trapezoidal summation;

6

t1/2, Z calculated as ln2/λ where λ is the terminal elimination rate constant estimated from negative slope of log C×T curve between t=6 and t=16 hr time points.
