Applying GastroPlus™ for Extensions of Biowaivers for BCS Class II Compounds
GastroPlus™ is a mechanistically based simulation software package that predicts absorption, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics in humans and animals.
The Prediction of the Relative Importance of CYP3A/P-gp to the Non-linear Intestinal Absorption of Drugs by Advanced Compartmental Absorption and Transit (ACAT) Model
Intestinal CYP3A and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) decrease the intestinal absorption of substrate drugs. Since substrate specificity of CYP3A often overlaps that of P-gp, and estimation of their saturability in the...
Using Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) Modeling to Evaluate the Impact of Pharmaceutical Excipients on Oral Drug Absorption: Sensitivity Analyses
Drug solubility, effective permeability, and intestinal metabolism and transport are parameters that govern intestinal bioavailability and oral absorption.
Utilizing In Vitro Dissolution-Permeation Chamber for the Quantitative Prediction of pH-Dependent Drug-Drug Interactions with Acid-Reducing Agents: a Comparison with Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling
For many orally administered basic drugs with pH-dependent solubility, concurrent administration with acid-reducing agents (ARAs) can significantly impair their absorption and exposure.
Folate-targeted amphiphilic cyclodextrin.siRNA nanoparticles for prostate cancer therapy exhibit PSMA mediated uptake, therapeutic gene silencing in vitro and prolonged circulation in vivo
In this study, a folate targeted cyclodextrin (CD) nanoparticle was prepared by co-formulating CD.siRNA complexes with DSPE-PEG5000-folate to target the prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA).
Physiologically Based Absorption Modeling to Design Extended-Release Clinical Products for an Ester Prodrug
Absorption modeling has demonstrated its great value in modern drug product development due to its utility in understanding and predicting in vivo performance.
Modeling and Simulation Strategy to Support Eslicarbazepine Acetate (ESL) Development in Pediatric Patients in the Treatment of Partial-Onset Seizures
Eslicarbazepine acetate (ESL, Aptiom®) was FDA approved for adjunctive treatment of partial-onset seizures (POS) in adults aged 18 years and older, with subsequent approval as monotherapy.
