Chronic kidney disease and physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling: a critical review of existing models

Chronic kidney disease and physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling: a critical review of existing models

Software: GastroPlus®

Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling is a paradigm shift in this era for determining the exposure of drugs in pediatrics, geriatrics, and patients with chronic diseases where clinical trials are difficult to conduct.

Using molecularly dissolved drug concentrations in PBBMs improves the prediction of oral absorption from supersaturating formulations

Using molecularly dissolved drug concentrations in PBBMs improves the prediction of oral absorption from supersaturating formulations

Publication: Eur J Pharm Sci
Software: GastroPlus®

Predicting the absorption of drugs from enabling formulations is still challenging due to the limited capabilities of standard physiologically based biopharmaceutics models (PBBMs) to capture complex absorption processes.
