Evolution of Circulating Tumor DNA Profile from First-line to Subsequent Therapy in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma
Background: Treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) typically entails mechanistically distinct agents across the first- and second-line setting.

Prediction of Losartan Active Carboxylic Acid Metabolite Exposure Following Losartan Administration Using Static and Physiologically-Based Pharmacokinetic Models.
The aim of this study was to evaluate a strategy based on static and dynamic physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling for the prediction of metabolite and parent drug area under...

Development and qualification of physiologically based pharmacokinetic models for drugs with atypical distribution behavior: A desipramine case study.
Desipramine is a secondary tricyclic amine, which is primarily metabolized by cytochrome 2D6. It shows a high volume of distribution (Vss) (10–50 L/kg) due to its high lipophilicity, unspecific phospholipid binding, and lysosomal trapping.
