Limited Sampling Strategy for the Estimation of Mycophenolic Acid and its Acyl Glucuronide Metabolite Area under the Concentration-Time Curve in Japanese Lung Transplant Recipients

Purpose: The dose of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) used to prevent rejection after lung transplantation is often adjusted based on the 12-hour area under the concentration-time curve (AUC0-12) of mycophenolic acid (MPA). A limited sampling strategy (LSS) is useful to define the pharmacokinetic (PK) pr...
