TABLE 3.

Percentage of patients with an AUC0–24 of <40, from 40 to 80, from 80 to 120, and >120 mg/liter·h following oral administrations of doses calculated with published algorithms

Dose according to algorithm % of patients with an AUC0–24 (mg/liter·h) of:
<40 40–80 80–120 ≥120
Pescovitz et al. dose algorithm (3) 0 12 55 33
Åsberg et al. dose algorithm (8) (applying the proposed 20% increase) 13 60 13 14
Villeneuve et al. dose algorithm (9) (interval for 28–32 mg/kg/day) <1 53–61 20–30 11–14
Our oral proposed doses: 16, 40, and 56 mg/kg/day for low, medium, and high eGFR (maximum, 1,800 mg daily) 0 23–32 50–60 13–18
