Primary Outcome Measures:
  • AUC0-infinity (area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over the time interval from 0 extrapolated to infinity) [ Time Frame: up to 72 hours after drug intake ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Cmax (maximum measured concentration of the analyte in plasma) [ Time Frame: up to 72 hours after drug intake ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • AUC0-tz (area under the concentration-time curve of the analyte in plasma over the time interval from 0 to the last quantifiable data point) [ Time Frame: up to 72 hours after drug intake ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
