Figures & data
Notes: In study 1, screening was performed within 3 weeks of baseline. Dosing was BID, except for the last day of dosing (only morning dose administered). In study 2, screening was performed within 28 days prior to baseline. Sublingual asenapine was given BID. Cohort 3a was originally scheduled similarly to cohorts 3b–3d (5 mg BID on day 1 followed by 10 mg BID thereafter); however, after safety results of cohort two became available, a protocol amendment modified the original treatment regimen (slower titration to 10 mg asenapine) to improve tolerability. a≥4 subjects per group must have been between 12 and 15 years of age.
Abbreviation: BID, bis in die (twice daily).
Abbreviation: BID, bis in die (twice daily).
Notes: Following administration of sublingual asenapine 1–10 mg BID (final dose) for study 1 (top) and study 2 (bottom). Inset represents concentrations on a semilogarithmic scale.

Notes: (A, B) Closeness of observed plasma concentrations to population and individual predictions, respectively; (C, D) trends in residuals vs time and population predictions, respectively.
Notes: Adequacy of model is displayed by overlaying observations (o for Phase I studies and ♦ for Phase III studies) on model-predicted 95% prediction intervals (shaded area). Dots represent plasma-concentration data since last dose. Solid and dashed lines represent medians for binned time intervals of observations and model predictions, respectively.
Notes: Forest plot illustrates relative differences in asenapine AUC0–12 as a function of age, body-mass index, race, and sex. Black squares represent geometric mean ratios. Whiskers represent 90% confidence intervals. Body-mass index stratification: underweight (<18.5 kg/m2), normal (>18.5 and <25 kg/m2), overweight (≥25 and <30 kg/m2), obese (>30 kg/m2).
Abbreviation: AUC0–12, area under the plasma concentration–time curve from 0 to 12 hours.
