Dược Động Học :
▧ Absorption :
Following IM administration of 100 mg, abarelix is absorbed slowly with a mean peak concentration of 43.4 ng/mL observed approximately 3 days after the injection.
▧ Protein binding :
96-99%
▧ Metabolism :
In vitro hepatocyte (rat, monkey, human) studies and in vivo studies in rats and monkeys showed that the major metabolites of abarelix were formed via hydrolysis of peptide bonds. No significant oxidative or conjugated metabolites of abarelix were found either in vitro or in vivo. There is no evidence of cytochrome P-450 involvement in the metabolism of abarelix.
▧ Half Life :
13.2 ± 3.2 days
