N, number of subjects; CV, coefficient of variation; Cmax, maximum observed plasma concentration; tmax, time to maximum plasma concentration; t1/2, estimate of the terminal elimination half-life in plasma; AUC0–t, area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the last quantifiable concentration; AUC0–∞, area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 extrapolated to infinity; CL/F, apparent total plasma clearance when dosed orally; Vz/F, apparent total volume of distribution when dosed orally; NA, not applicable.

a

tmax is summarized by median and range (minimum to maximum).

b

Mean excludes data with R2 < 0.9.

c

Median difference (“APR + MTX” − “APR”).

d

90% CI of the median difference are from Hodges–Lehmann Estimate.

e

P-value is from Wilcoxon signed-rank test.
