Abatacept reduces paw edema, and the SC Multiple-dose group shows significantly greater (tobs = 2.50) paw edema reduction compared with the IV dose group[2]. Abatacept exhibits linear PK across the studied doses. The NCA clearance (CL) is 20.8 mL/day/kg, volume (Vss) is 146 mL/kg, and bioavailability (F) of the SC dose dosing is 57.7%[2]. Abatacept (oral; 10 mg/kg; every 2 days) reduces the proportion of activated T cells (CD44highCD62L–) and inhibits the up-regulation of ICOS and CD71 in homozygous DO11.10 RAG-2–/– BALB/c (H-2d/d) mice[3]. Animal Model: Male Lewis rats (6-9 weeks old) with weights of 150-175 g[2] Dosage: 10 mg/kg (IV), 20 mg/kg (SC single-dose), 20 mg/kg (SC Multiple-dose) on day 21 with 10 mg/kg SC doses on days 23, 25, 27, and 29 Administration: IV or SC Result: Reduced paw edema, and the SC Multiple-dose group showed significantly greater (tobs = 2.50) paw edema reduction compared with the IV dose group. Animal Model: Male Lewis rats (6-9 weeks old) with weights of 150-175 g[2] Dosage: 10 mg/kg (IV), 20 mg/kg (SC single-dose), 20 mg/kg (SC Multiple-dose) on day 21 with 10 mg/kg SC doses on days 23, 25, 27, and 29 (Pharmacokinetic Study) Administration: IV or SC Result: The NCA clearance (CL) is 20.8 mL/day/kg, volume (Vss) is 146 mL/kg, and bioavailability (F) of the SC dose dosing is 57.7%.
