Pharmacokinetic Analysis
Ibrexafungerp citrate (MK 3118 citrate) exhibits oral bioavailability (mouse 51%, rat 45%, dog 35%) following oral administration (mouse 1 mg/kg, rat 5 mg/kg and dog 5 mg/kg)[3].
Ibrexafungerp citrate (MK 3118 citrate) exhibits moderate half-lives (mouse 5.5, rat 8.7 and, dog 9.3 h) due to high plasma clearance (0.68, 0.44, and 0.45 L/h/kg respectively) combined with large volumes of distribution (5.3, 4.7, and 4.1 L/kg respectively) following intravenous administration (mouse 1 mg/kg, rat 5 mg/kg and dog 5 mg/kg)[3]. Animal Model: | Female CD1 mice, Male and female Han Wister rats, Male and female beagle dogs[3] | Dosage: | Mice (1 mg/kg), rats (5 mg/kg) and dogs (5 mg/kg) | Administration: | Intravenous (i.v.) or oral gavage | Result: | T1/2s of 5.5, 8.7, and 9.3 h for mice, rats, and dogs, respectively. |
