Table 1. PK parameters of naloxegol and radioactivity in plasma and whole blood (n = 6).

Parametera Plasma naloxegol Plasma radioactivity Whole blood radioactivity
AUC0–∞, ng×h/mL 233 (61.9) 710 (49.2) 392 (44.2)
Cmax, ng/mL 51.1 (38.3) 84.8 (40.3) 57.5 (40.8)
tmax, hb 1.74 (0.25 – 3.02) 2.23 (0.50 – 4.02) 2.20 (0.50 – 4.02)
t1/2, h 7.88 (46.4) 7.28 (41.4) 3.66 (27.5)
λz, h–1 0.0880 (46.5) 0.0952 (41.4) 0.190 (27.5)
Vz/F, L 1,320 (54.6) 399 (25.2) 364 (22.6)
CL/F, L/h 116 (61.9) 38.0 (49.3) 69.0 (44.3)

λz = terminal elimination rate constant; AUC0–∞ = area under the curve from time zero extrapolated to infinity; CL/F = apparent oral clearance; Cmax = maximum concentration; PK = pharmacokinetic; tmax = time to maximum plasma concentration; t1/2 = apparent elimination half-life; Vz/F = apparent volume of distribution. aValues are geometric mean (geometric coefficient of variation in percent) unless otherwise noted. bValues are median (min, max).
