Popis: The absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of fasiglifam were investigated in rats, dogs, and humans. The absolute oral bioavailability of fasiglifam was high in all species (>76.0%). After oral administration of [14C]fasiglifam, the administered radioactivity was quantitatively recovered and the major route of excretion of radioactivity was via feces in all species. Fasiglifam was a major component in the plasma and feces in all species. Its oxidative metabolite (M-I) was observed as a minor metabolite in rat and human plasma (
