Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Relative Bioavailability Study of Valcyte (Valganciclovir) in Lung Transplant Recipients With or Without Cystic Fibrosis. (NCT NCT00377741)

NCT ID: NCT00377741

Last Updated: 2015-12-31

Results Overview

The area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to end of dosing interval (AUC \[0-tau\]) is a measure of the plasma ganciclovir concentration from time zero to end of dosing interval. It was computed using the linear trapezoidal rule. The pharmacokinetic parameters of valganciclovir were measured in plasma of all participants following a single oral dose valganciclovir at 900 mg on Day 1.

Participant Flow

A total of 31 participants were included from 5 centers in the United States of America. This study was conducted between 01 December 2004 and 30 June 2006.

Participants were received 900 mg of commercial medication of valganciclovir tablet daily for \>= 4 days prior to study Day 1 so as to achieve steady-state kinetics of ganciclovir.

The apparent elimination rate is equal to the magnitude of the slope from the log-linear regression of plasma concentration versus time over the interval t to 24, where t is the first time-point used for this regression. Kelim was not reported for those participants for whom R-squared (adjusted) was lower than 0.70.

Plasma half-life is the time measured for the plasma concentration to decrease by one half. The pharmacokinetic parameters of Valganciclovir were measured in plasma of all participants following a single tablet dose Valganciclovir at 900 mg at start of treatment on Day 1. T1/2 was not reported for those participants for whom R-squared (adjusted) was lower than 0.70.
