Hi Helmut,

❝ IMHO that’s an exception. Think about nonlinear PK (saturation, autoinduction). In dose-proportionality studies we are not only interested in absorption but also in detecting potential changes in clearance and therefore would assess primarily AUC0-∞.


Sorry I wasn't clear in the last email. I meant dosage strength proportionality study (2x100 vs 1x200), not dose proportionality study (100 mg vs 2x100 mg).

In any case, it makes sense to use AUC0-72 for BA studies since I am dealing with the same compound, same indication etc etc and just a change from a tablet to a capsule formulation (vice versa)


Thanks

John
