The Mass Balance and Biotransformation of [14C] Vicagrel in Healthy Man

The Mass Balance and Biotransformation Study of [14C] Vicagrel in Chinese Healthy Adult Male Volunteers

This study was designed to evaluate the mass balance and biotransformation after single-dose of [14C]Vicagrel orally in Chinese healthy male volunteers, revealing the overall pharmacokinetic characteristics of vicagrel in humans, and providing a reference for the rational administration.
