Dược Động Học :
▧ Volume of Distribution :
Vd: 46 mL/kg
▧ Metabolism :
Most likely removed by opsonization via the reticuloendothelial system when bound to endothelial cells, or by human antimurine antibody production
▧ Half Life :
approximately 20 days (range: 11–50 days)
▧ Clearance :
* 0.26 L/day [Male patients who received 1 to 20 mg/kg of Avastin weekly, every 2 weeks, or every 3 weeks]
* 0.21 L/day [Female patients who received 1 to 20 mg/kg of Avastin weekly, every 2 weeks, or every 3 weeks]
* 0.25 L/day [Patients with higher tumor burden who received 1 to 20 mg/kg of Avastin weekly, every 2 weeks, or every 3 weeks]
* 0.2 L/day [patients with tumor burdens below the median who received 1 to 20 mg/kg of Avastin weekly, every 2 weeks, or every 3 weeks]
Clearance varies by body weight, gender, and tumor burden. Increased clearance observed in men and in patients with higher tumor burden; however, no evidence of reduced efficacy.
