- Secondary parameters are predicted using the final model and values are presented as median [range]. The p-values are calculated with a Mann–Whitney U-test.
- CMAX is the predicted maximum concentration after the first dose and TMAX is the time to CMAX. Half-life is the estimated terminal elimination half-life. Day 7 and 28 concentrations are the model predicted plasma concentrations of piperaquine at day 7 and 28, respectively. AUC0->90 is the predicted area under the concentration-time curve from time zero extrapolated to day 90. AUC48h->90 is the predicted area under the concentration-time curve from 48 hours extrapolated to day 90.
