Brief summary
As part of the global clinical development program for Palbociclib, studies are planned in cancer patients in China. An assessment of Palbociclib pharmacokinetics in Chinese patients, as required by the Chinese Health Authorities, is therefore warranted. In addition, safety and efficacy will be also evaluated. The single and multiple 125 mg oral dose pharmacokinetics of Palbociclib will be characterized.
Interventions
125 mg orally once daily with food on Day 1 to Day 21 followed by 7 days off treatment in a 28-day cycle
2.5 mg , orally once daily (continuously)

Ratio Over Baseline for Skin Biomarker Phosphorylated Retinoblastoma Protein (pRb) Expression
The pRb was one of the skin biomarkers and samples were assayed using immunohistochemistry (IHC) method. Ratio over baseline was calculated by dividing the H-score value for pRb at each specified time point by baseline value. The H-score value, which could range from 0 to 300 (strongest expression) with higher score representing stronger expression, was calculated from the total of each individual intensity of staining (0 \[negative\], 1+ \[weak\], 2+ \[moderate\], 3+ \[strong\]) multiplied by the percentages of cells (0 to 100) that represented that staining.
Time frame: Baseline (Day -1), lead-in phase Days 1 and 2, Cycle 1 Days 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26
Population: All enrolled and treated participants who had both pre-dose value and at least 1 post dose value for at least 1 biomarker. Number Analyzed refers to the number of evaluable participants for each specified time point.

Ratio Over Baseline for Thymidine Kinase (TK) Concentration
Blood samples were collected to provide serum for the assessments of TK activity. The concentrations of TK were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. Ratio of serum TK concentration at each specified time point over baseline value was presented.
Time frame: Baseline (Day -1 pre-dose), lead-in phase Day 1 (4, 8, 10, 24, 72, 120 hours post dose), Cycle 1 Day 21 (4, 8, 10, 24, 72, 96, 120 hours post dose), Cycle 2 Day 1 pre-dose
Population: All enrolled and treated participants who had both pre-dose value and at least 1 post dose value for at least 1 biomarker. Number Analyzed refers to the number of evaluable participants for each specified time point.
