Missing samples in terminal elimination phase [Study Assessment]
Dear All
Regards
Few days back, we did a parallel bioequivalance study for a molecule with long half life (terminal elimination half life between 120 hr - 156 hr) and have sampling points up to 720 hrs post dose.
Due to longer study period, there were some missing ambulatory samples (In one volunteer missed 3 samples between 72 - 144 hr) and in others missing some samples after 144 hr.
Tmax of the molecule was said to be in between 6 - 24 hr.
Can anyone please suggest a reliable estimation of AUC0-t considering the missing samples.
Thanks and Regards
