Fixed supplied 40 to <60 kg · calendar A

Fixed one-compartment apparent PK and independent autonomous C5 decay coordinate under a supplied bolus calendar. Drug exposure does not control the C5 coordinate.

Study purpose

  • How do the model's key biological readouts change under fixed supplied 40 to <60 kg · calendar a?

Assumptions

  • Conditional fixed coefficients and course-level central boluses.
  • Autonomous C5 decay has no ravulizumab-dependent suppression, binding, target turnover or recovery.
  • The supplied coordinate behavior does not identify individual or population PK/PD predictions.

Inputs changed since the displayed result. Run to update the comparison.
