Leveraging PopPK and PBPK Modeling Approaches to Understand Food/PPI Effects
Applying both top-down (PopPK and PBPK) and bottom-up (PBPK) modeling approaches can leverage existing data sets and help prospectively answer questions. Predictions of absorption-related DDIs…
How to Understand Aqueous Ionization and Its Influence on Key Physical Properties of Drugs
Clearing Up Myths About Aqueous Ionization of Drugs, Understanding the pH Dependence of Aqueous Solubility, & Understanding the pH Dependence of Partitioning
A strategy for early risk predictions of clinical drug-drug interactions involving the GastroPlusTM DDI module for time-dependent CYP inhibitors
A set of reference compounds for time-dependent inhibition (TDI) of cytochrome P450 with available literature data for kinact and KI was used to predict clinical implications using the GastroPlusTM software.
A Survey of the Regulatory Requirements for BCS-Based Biowaivers for Solid Oral Dosage Forms by Participating Regulators and Organisations of the International Generic Drug Regulators Programme
The Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS) based biowaiver is a scientific model which enables the substitution of in vivo bioequivalence studies with in vitro data as evidence of therapeutic equivalence subject to certain conditions.
Discovery PBPK: How to enhance the expected accuracy of bioavailability predictions for NCEs that are not primarily metabolized
In this webinar, we will review the accuracy of purely in silico estimates of bioavailability and the chemistry classification of new chemical entity (NCE) molecules that are easier or harder to...
Experimental versus theoretical log D7.4, pKa and plasma protein binding values for benzodiazepines appearing as new psychoactive substances
The misuse of benzodiazepines as new psychoactive substances is an increasing problem around the world. Basic physicochemical and pharmacokinetic data is required on these substances to interpret and predict their effects upon humans.
In silico prediction coupled with in vitro experiments and absorption modeling to study the inclusion complex of telmisartan with modified beta-cyclodextrin
Telmisartan (TEL) is a poorly bioavailable antihypertensive drug candidate owing to its low solubility in all the biofluids.
Abatacept Population Pharmacokinetics and Exposure-Response Analyses for Dose Recommendation of SC and IV Abatacept in Patients With Psoriatic Arthritis
Both subcutaneous (SC) and intravenous (IV) abatacept, a selective T-cell co-stimulation modulator, are approved for the treatment of adults with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and...
An Introduction to DILIsym® Software, a Mechanistic Mathematical Representation of Drug-Induced Liver Injury
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is one of the primary reasons why a new drug candidate may fail during development.
Case Study in Placebo Modeling and Its Effect on Drug Development
ADHD (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity associated with clinically significant impairment in functioning.
High-throughput prediction of fraction absorbed and bioavailability in silico
HTPK simulations run using purely in silico property estimates are in reasonable but imperfect agreement with experimental results in humans and rats.
Walt Woltosz on the passing of world-famous astrophysicist, Professor Sir Stephen Hawking
Walt Woltosz, chairman of Simulations Plus Inc., commented on the passing of world-famous astrophysicist, Professor Sir Stephen Hawking...
"Stephen Hawking was a remarkable man and a global scientific leader. But he was also charming and witty, with a nice sense of humor. He would "dance" in his electric wheelchair at festive events, spinning in circles and dazzling all who watched. He made his place in history, along with Newton, Einstein, Bohr, and so many others. He will be missed."
