Herein, a population pharmacokinetic (popPK) model of CC-122 was developed and the influence of demographic and disease-related covariates on population pharmacokinetic parameters was assessed based on data from three clinical studies of CC-122 (dose range, 0.5– 15 mg) in healthy subjects and cancer patients.Methods: Nonlinear mixed effects modeling was employed in developing a population pharmacokinetic model of CC-122 based on 298 patients from 3 clinical studies.Results: The PK of CC-122 was adequately described with a two-compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination. Tumor types were found to be significantly correlated with apparent clearance (CL/F) and apparent volume of distribution of the central compartment. Creatinine clearance was identified as a statistically significant covariate of CL/F. Sex and body weight were statistically but not clinically relevant on V2/F.Conclusion: In conclusion, the two-compartment model built can be used to adequately describe the time course of the population pharmacokinetics of CC-122 and should serve as the basis for dose adjustment decision-making of CC-122.Keywords: CC-122, population pharmacokinetics, renal impairment
