Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Profile From Time 0 Extrapolated to Infinite Time (AUCinf) for Ritlecitinib

Plasma AUCinf for ritlecitinib is reported. AUCinf was calculated as \[AUClast+(Clast\*/kel)\], where AUClast is the area under the plasma concentration-time profile from time 0 to the time of the Clast, Clast is the last quantifiable concentration, Clast\* is the predicted plasma concentration at the last quantifiable time point estimated from the log-linear regression analysis, and kel is the terminal phase rate constant calculated by a linear regression of the log-linear concentration-time curve.

Time frame: Pre-dose, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 16, and 24 hours post dose on Day 1 in each period

Population: Includes all participants randomized and treated who had at least 1 of the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of primary interest in at least 1 treatment period.
