Treatment with MI-538 results in a pronounced, about 80%, reduction in the MV4;11 tumor volume, without causing substantial signs of toxicity reflected by less than 10% reduction of the body weight. MI-538 demonstrates markedly improved exposure (area under the curve, AUC, values), Cmax (maximum compound concentration) in the blood plasma, and the lowest value of clearance. The half-life of MI-538 is about 1.6 h. MI-538 has also high oral bioavailability (~50%)[1].
