Population Pharmacokinetics of Palbociclib in aReal-World Situation
2021
Palbociclib is an oral cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor that is used in combination with aromatase inhibitors in the treatment of postmenopausal women with metastatic breast cancer. Its metabolism profile is associated with an important interpatient variability. We performed a population pharmacokinetics study of palbociclib in women routinely followed in a cancer center. One hundred and fifty-one samples were analyzed. The sampling times after administration ranged from 0.9 to 75 h and the samples were taken between 1 and 21 days after the beginning of the palbociclib cycle. Palbociclib was determined using a validated mass spectrometry method. The best model that described the concentrat…
Pharmacokinetics in Drug Discovery
2007
The aim of this current review is to summarize the present status of pharmacokinetics in Drug Discovery. The review is structured into four sections. The first section is a general overview of what we understand by pharmacokinetics and the different LADMET aspects: Liberation, Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, and Toxicity. The second section highlights the different computational or in silico approaches to estimate/predict one or several aspects of the pharmacokinetic profile of a discovery lead compound. The third section discusses the most commonly used in vitro methodologies. The fourth and last section examines the various approaches employed towards the pharmacokinetic …
External evaluation of population pharmacokinetic models of vancomycin in neonates: the transferability of published models to different clinical set…
2012
AimsVancomycin is one of the most evaluated antibiotics in neonates using modeling and simulation approaches. However no clear consensus on optimal dosing has been achieved. The objective of the present study was to perform an external evaluation of published models, in order to test their predictive performances in an independent dataset and to identify the possible study-related factors influencing the transferability of pharmacokinetic models to different clinical settings.MethodPublished neonatal vancomycin pharmacokinetic models were screened from the literature. The predictive performance of six models was evaluated using an independent dataset (112 concentrations from 78 neonates). T…

2020
Background: The aim of this analysis was to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of sublingual buprenorphine (BUP) and its metabolites (buprenorphine glucuronide
Population pharmacokinetics of 5-fluorouracil in colorectal cancer patients
2004
Aims. The pharmacokinetics of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) after intravenous administration in color- ectal cancer patients were examined using population analysis. The relevant covariates and the extent of inter- and intraindividual variability were evaluated. Methods. Data from 27 patients with diagnosis of nonmetastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma receiving weekly 5-FU (450 mg/m2), plus levamisol 50 mg/8 hours by oral route for 3 days every 15 days, were pooled with data from 17 patients with diagnosis of metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma, receiving daily 5-FU (425 mg/m2) and intravenous folinic acid (20 mg/m2) over five consecutive days (daily times five), every four weeks. In both groups 5-…
