The final model for nonbleeding patients is as follows: .
Final model for bleeding patients is as follows: .
where CLNL,pop is the eculizumab population mean nonlinear clearance for a 70-kg patient; CLLpop, is the eculizumab population mean linear clearance for a 70-kg patient; CLtot,pop is the population mean total clearance defined as sum of CLNLpop and CLLpop; Vdpop, is the population mean volume of distribution for a 70-kg patient; and WT is actual body weight (in kilograms).
