3. Test Method
[0197] 6 cynomolgus monkeys (half male and half female) were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups with 1 animal/sex in each group. The cynomolgus monkeys were administered with the test sample at a dose of 10 mg/kg by the single intravenous infusion. Blood samples were collected from each group of animals at the following time points: before administration, and 5 min, 15 min, 0.5 h, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, and 8 h after administration. In the test, the concentration of each test compound in the plasma of the cynomolgus monkey was detected by the LC-MS/MS method, and the lower limits of quantification of the analysis methods for the plasma samples were all 1 ?g/mL. The plasma concentration data were analyzed by the non-compartmental analysis (NCA) of the analysis software for pharmacokinetic data, WinNonlin, pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated, and pharmacokinetic characteristics of the test compounds in cynomolgus monkeys after administration were investigated, with the results shown in the following table.

Test Example 3: Pharmacokinetic Study of Test Compound in ICR Mice
1. Sample Preparation
[0199] The formulation for administration was prepared on ice. A proper amount of the test compound was precisely weighed out, and a 90% volume of normal saline was slowly added. The mixture was ultrasonically stirred in an ice-water bath until no large pieces existed. After the mixture was well mixed, a 1 M NaOH solution was added in small portions using a pipette. After the test sample was completely dissolved as seen by the naked eye, the pH value was measured, and the solution was brought to the final volume to give the formulation for subcutaneous injection with the desired concentration.

The collected blood samples were placed in EDTA-K.sub.2 anticoagulation blood collection tubes. The collected whole blood was placed on ice and centrifuged at 6800 g at 2-8? C. for 6 min to separate plasma within 1 h. After the centrifugation, the plasma was transferred to a centrifuge tube to which a plasma stabilizer had been added in advance (plasma:concentrated phosphoric acid=100:0.2; for example, 1 ?L of 10% concentrated phosphoric acid was added to 50 ?L of plasma). All the animals were subjected to careful clinical observation before administration and at each of the blood collection time points after administration, and the adverse reaction symptoms in the animals were recorded.
