WinRho® SDF Liquid is Bioequivalent to WinRho® SDF Lyophilized
In two comparative pharmacokinetic studies (n=101), the formulations were bioequivalent following IV administration based on area under the curve to 84 days and had comparable pharmacokinetics following IM administration. Both formulations also had similiar elimination half-lives. WinRho® SDF must be administered via the intravenous route for the treatment of ITP.
