PRISM is a 21 item patient-reported outcome instrument with 4 domains. Items are scored using various scales. Total score ranges from 0-100. Higher scores indicate more severe or frequent symptoms.

Population: Full Pharmacokinetic Subset consisted of a subset of subjects who underwent the detailed pharmacokinetic assessments. Subjects who vomited within the blood sampling period may have been excluded.

Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve can be used as a measure of drug exposure. It is derived from drug concentration and time so it gives a measure how much and how long a drug stays in a body.
