Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- PD parameters [baseline through week 4]
Pharmacodynamic (PD) parameters, what a drug does to the body, will be collected from baseline through week 4: the time to nadir (or peak) change from baseline area under the curve (AUC)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Percentage of TEAEs [baseline through week 6]
Percentage of patients with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) from baseline through end of study (week 6).
- PK parameters [baseline through week 4]
Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters, what the body does to a drug, will be collected from baseline through week 4: AUC CL (clearance) Cmax (the peak concentration) t1/2 (observed terminal half-life)
