Pharmacokinetics in children

Similar Cmax of teduglutide across age groups was demonstrated by population pharmacokinetics modelling. However, lower exposure (AUC) and shorter half-life were seen in paediatric patients 4 months to 17 years of age, as compared with adults. The pharmacokinetic profile in this paediatric population, as evaluated by clearance and volume of distribution, was different from that observed in adults after correcting for body weights. Specifically, clearance decreases with increasing age from 4 months  old to adults [EPAR Revestive].
