Provisional Classification and in Silico Study of Biopharmaceutical System Based on Caco-2 Cell Permeability and Dose Number

2013

Today, early characterization of drug properties by the Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS) has attracted significant attention in pharmaceutical discovery and development. In this direction, the present report provides a systematic study of the development of a BCS-based provisional classification (PBC) for a set of 322 oral drugs. This classification, based on the revised aqueous solubility and the apparent permeability across Caco-2 cell monolayers, displays a high correlation (overall 76%) with the provisional BCS classification published by World Health Organization (WHO). Current database contains 91 (28.3%) PBC class I drugs, 76 (23.6%) class II drugs, 97 (31.1%) class III d…
