What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Concentration of total radioactivity in blood and plasma and percentage of radioactive dose in urine and faeces and total balance

    Time frame: Samples collected prior to treatment, during treatment and follow-up for a maximum of 14 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Metabolite profiling and identification in plasma and excreta

    Time frame: Samples collected prior to treatment, during treatment and follow-up for a maximum of 14 days.

  2. Pharmacokinetic parameters of selumetinib

    Cmax, tmax, t½, AUC, CL/F, Vz/F, MRT, fe, Ae, CLR

    Time frame: Samples collected prior to treatment, during treatment and follow-up for a maximum of 14 days.

  3. Plasma concentrations of selumetinib

    Time frame: Samples collected prior to treatment, during treatment and follow-up for a maximum of 14 days

  4. Safety

    Adverse events, vital signs, electrocardiogram, haematology, clinical chemistry, urinalysis, physical examination, left ventricular ejection fraction, and opthalmology assessments.

    Time frame: Assessments prior to treatment and after treatment including follow up.
