Tedizolid Plasma Pharmacokinetics Are Comparable in Obese and Nonobese Patients and Healthy Subjects
Tedizolid phosphate is a novel oxazolidinone prodrug antibacterial being investigated for the treatment of Gram-positive infections, including those caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
Simulation of the In Vivo Exposure to Ibuprofen Based on In Vitro Dissolution Profiles from Solid Dosage Forms
Four ibuprofen products in two or three concentrations of active pharmaceutical ingredient were evaluated in vitro, using the conditions recommended for the upper pH- value of the three stage dissolution testing.
A tutorial for analysing the cost-effectiveness of alternative methods for assessing chemical toxicity: the case of acute oral toxicity prediction
Compared with traditional animal methods for toxicity testing, in vitro and in silico methods are widely considered to permit a more cost-effective assessment of chemicals.
Lipophilicity indices derived from the liquid chromatographic behavior observed under bimodal retention conditions (reversed phase/hydrophilic interaction): Application to a representative set of pyridinium oximes
The liquid chromatographic behavior observed under bimodal retention conditions (reversed phase and hydrophilic interaction) offers a new basis for the determination of some derived lipophilicity indices.
Extemporaneously prepared controlled release formulations for accelerating the early phase development of drug candidates
Extemporaneous drug preparations, which are compounded by a pharmacist at a clinical site, are commonly used in early clinical studies to evaluate the performance of drug candidates.
A PPAR-ß/d Agonist is Neuroprotective and Decreases Cognitive Impairment in a Rodent Model of Parkinson’s Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with higher risk of cognitive impairment that may lead to memory loss, confusion, and decreased attention span.
The paradox of scientific excellence and the search for productivity in pharmaceutical R&D
Scientific advances in specialty areas are proceeding at a rapid rate, but the research and development enterprise seems unable to take full advantage. Harnessing the steady stream of knowledge and inventions from different...
Simian Virus 40 Large T Antigen Induces IFN-Stimulated Genes through ATR Kinase
Polyomaviruses encode a large T Ag (LT), a multifunctional protein essential for the regulation of both viral and host cell gene expression and productive viral infection.

Impact of Delayed-Dose Administration of USL255, Qudexy™ XR (Topiramate) Extended-Release Capsules
Despite the importance of medication adherence for successful management of seizure disorders, nonadherence continues to be a significant problem in patients with epilepsy.
Use of a systems model of drug-induced liver injury (DILIsym(®)) to elucidate the mechanistic differences between acetaminophen and its less-toxic isomer, AMAP, in mice.
Acetaminophen (APAP) has been used as a probe drug to investigate drug-induced liver injury (DILI). In mice, 3'-hydroxyacetanilide (AMAP), a less-toxic isomer of APAP, has also been studied as a negative control.

From Bench to Humans: Formulation Development of a Poorly Water Soluble Drug to Mitigate Food Effect
This study presents a formulation approach that was shown to mitigate the dramatic food effect observed for a BCS Class II drug. In vitro (dissolution), in vivo (dog), and in silico (GastroPlus®) models...
Application of Physiologically Based Absorption Modeling to Formulation Development of a Low Solubility, Low Permeability Weak Base: Mechanistic Investigation of Food Effect
Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling has been broadly used to facilitate drug development, hereby we developed a PBPK model to systematically investigate the...
A Case Study of In Silico Modelling of Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride / Metallic Compound Interactions
With the development of physiologically based absorption models, there is an increased scientific and regulatory interest in in silico modelling and simulation of drug-drug and drug-food interactions.
Modelling the Absorption of Metformin with Patients Post Gastric Bypass Surgery
Gastric bypass surgery in obesity shortens the length of the small intestine, which can have a significant impact on drug absorption.
Physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling framework for quantitative prediction of an herb-drug interaction
Herb-drug interaction predictions remain challenging. Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling was used to improve prediction accuracy of potential herb-drug interactions...
Computational Modeling of OATP1B1 Inhibitors
This poster was presented at the 2014 SOT meeting. It describes where the OATP1b1 data originated and the cutoff value. The model, including descriptors, is discussed.
