Area Under the Concentration-time Curve (AUCtau) at Steady-state Over a Dosing Interval of Multiple Doses Padsevonil (PSL)

AUCtau is defined as area under the curve over a dosing interval at steady-state.

Time frame: On Days 8, 9, 10 and 11 PK samples were taken predose. On Day 12, PK samples were taken predose and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 24 hours postdose

Population: The Pharmacokinetic Set (PKS) is a subset of the FAS, consisting of those study participants who had no important protocol deviations affecting the PK parameters and had a sufficient number of samples available to determine at least 1 PK parameter. All PK analyses were performed using the PKS.
