Influence of OATP1B1 Function on the Disposition of Sorafenib-β-D-Glucuronide [PDF]
The oral multikinase inhibitor sorafenib undergoes extensive UGT1A9-mediated formation of sorafenib-β-D-glucuronide (SG). Using transporter-deficient mouse models, it was previously established that SG can be extruded into bile by ABCC2 or follow a liver-
