Leveraging Model Master Files from a Technology Company Perspective: Facilitating Quantitative Medicine in Regulatory Frameworks
Model Master Files (MMFs) offer a much needed approach to integrating computational modelling into drug development and regulatory frameworks, supporting the growth of quantitative medicine.

Assessment of Liver Injury Potential of Investigational Medicines in Drug Development
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is rare in clinical practice but when it occurs it can lead to acute liver failure and death. Drug developers and regulators undertake a series of steps to identify the DILI potential of a medication before it is approved for marketing.

High-Performance PBPK Model for Predicting CYP3A4 Induction-Mediated Drug Interactions: A Refined and Validated Approach
The cytochrome P450 enzyme 3A4 (CYP3A4) mediates numerous drug-drug interactions (DDIs) by inducing the metabolism of co-administered drugs, which can result in reduced therapeutic efficacy or increased toxicity.

Decoding PBPK & PBBM: What You Need to Know for Effective Application
In the complex world of R&D, acronyms like PBPK and PBBM often seem interchangeable—but they're not.

Hepatotoxicity Evaluation of Levornidazole and Its Three Main Impurities: Based on Structure–Toxicity Classification Prediction Combined with Zebrafish Toxicity Assessment
