Pharmacokinetics in children
Farmacokinetische en farmacodynamische modellering van pediatrische gegevens (leeftijd van 2 tot <18 jaar met toegediende doses van 100 ug/kg), met inbegrip van aanvullende gegevens uit het fase II onderzoek en gecombineerd met eerdere farmacokinetische gegevens van volwassenen, ondersteunt dat vergelijkbare serumblootstellingen aan lipegfilgrastim werden bereikt bij
pediatrische patiënten als bij volwassen patiënten (SmPC)
