What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero Extrapolated to Infinity (AUC0-inf) of Tepotinib
The AUC from time zero (= dosing time) extrapolated to infinity, based on the predicted value for the concentration at tlast, as estimated using the linear regression from lambda (λ)z determination.
Measured: Predose 60 minutes before tepotinib dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 30, 38, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post dose. Predose 60 minutes before carbamazepine dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours post dose
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve (AUC) From Time Zero to Time of Last Measurable Concentration (AUC0-tlast) of Tepotinib
The AUC from time zero (= dosing time) to the last sampling time (tlast) at which the concentration is at or above the lower limit of quantification. Calculated using the mixed log-linear trapezoidal rule (linear up, log down).
Measured: Predose 60 minutes before tepotinib dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 30, 38, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post dose. Predose 60 minutes before carbamazepine dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours post dose
Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Tepotinib
Cmax was obtained directly from the concentration versus time curve.
Measured: Predose 60 minutes before tepotinib dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 30, 38, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post dose. Predose 60 minutes before carbamazepine dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours post dose
Secondary outcomes (8)
Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs, TEAES With Severity of Grade Greater or Equal to 3
An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant. An AE was any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with use of a study intervention. A serious adverse event (SAE) was any untoward medical occurrence that resulted in any of the following outcomes: death; life threatening; persistent/significant disability/incapacity; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; congenital anomaly/birth defect or was otherwise considered medically important. TEAE's were those events with onset dates on or after the first administration of study intervention. Severity of abnormalities were evaluated using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version [24.1].
grade 1 : mild grade 2 : moderate grade 3 : severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening grade 4 : life threatening or disabling grade 5 : death related to AE
Measured: Baseline (Day 1) up to 10 Weeks
Number of Participants With Clinically Meaningful Change From Baseline in Laboratory Values
Number of participants with clinically significant change from baseline in laboratory parameters were reported. Clinical Significance was decided by the investigator. Laboratory investigation included hematology, biochemistry, urinalysis, and coagulation.
Measured: Baseline (Day 1) up to 10 Weeks
Number of Participants With Clinically Meaningful Change From Baseline in Electrocardiogram (ECG)
Number of participants with clinically significant change from baseline in ECG parameters were reported. Clinical Significance was decided by the investigator. The 12-lead ECGs were recorded after the participants have rested for at least 5 minutes in supine position. The parameters included heart rate (HR), Respiratory Rate, Pulse Rate, QRS, QT and QTcB calculated by the Bazett formula.
Measured: Baseline (Day 1) up to 10 Weeks
Number of Participants With Clinically Meaningful Change From Baseline in Vital Signs
Number of participants with clinically significant change from baseline in vital signs. Clinical Significance was decided by the investigator. Vital signs included oral body temperature, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and pulse rate.
Measured: Baseline (Day 1) up to 10 Weeks
Total Body Clearance of Drug From Plasma (CL/f) for Tepotinib
CL/f following oral administration was calculated as Dose/AUC0-inf, where AUC0-inf calculated as AUC0-t + AUCextra. AUCextra represents the extrapolated part of AUC0-inf calculated by Clastcalc/λz, where Clastcalc was the calculated plasma concentration at the last sampling time point at which the measured plasma concentration was at or above the LLOQ and λz was the apparent terminal rate constant determined from the terminal slope of the log-transformed plasma concentration curve.
Measured: Predose 60 minutes before tepotinib dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 30, 38, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post dose. Predose 60 minutes before carbamazepine dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours post dose
Apparent Volume of Distribution (Vz/f) for Tepotinib
Vz/F was defined as the apparent volume of distribution during the terminal phase following extravascular administration.
Measured: Predose 60 minutes before tepotinib dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 30, 38, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post dose. Predose 60 minutes before carbamazepine dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours post dose
Time to Reach the Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Tepotinib
The time to reach the maximum observed plasma concentration (Tmax) was obtained directly from the concentration versus time curve.
Measured: Predose 60 minutes before tepotinib dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 30, 38, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post dose. Predose 60 minutes before carbamazepine dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours post dose
Apparent Terminal Half-Life (t1/2) of Tepotinib in Plasma
t1/2 was defined as the time taken for the plasma concentration or the amount of drug in the body to be reduced by half.
Measured: Predose 60 minutes before tepotinib dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 30, 38, 48, 60, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours post dose. Predose 60 minutes before carbamazepine dosing and 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours post dose
