  1. Data expressed as geometric mean (95% CI) or as median (range) for tmax
  2. AUC0−∞, area under the plasma drug concentration–time curve (from time zero to infinity); AUC0−t, area under the plasma drug concentration–time curve (from time zero to time t of the last measured concentration above the limit of quantification); CI, confidence interval; Cmax, maximum plasma concentration; n, number of subjects with available data; PK, pharmacokinetic; t½, half-life; tmax, time to maximum plasma concentration
