Hi Dan,

❝ ❝ the plateau time t75% is a rather old PK metric

❝ maybe I am too young, I never heard of it... ;-)


Die Gnade der späten Geburt.

❝ However, what would be the advantage of this parameter?


Useful for multiple peaks (see this example) and “flat profiles”. If you compare Cmax that might be apples-and-oranges-statistics. Actually Steinijans & Co. introduced this metric for prolonged release theophylline (see also the book by Hauschke, Steinijans, and Pigeot). I those dark ages there was even a saying:

“Volker Steinijans and his wife Theophylline”. :-D


❝ Would it be possible to be bioequivalent with regard to AUC and Cmax but failing with regard to t75%?


Yes, it is, The Lászlós (who else?) have shown that. Will excavate the reference.

Medical researches can be divided into two sorts:
those who think that meta is better and those
who believe that pooling is fooling.    Stephen Senn
