Establishment of Biopredictive Dissolution and Bioequivalence Safe Space Using the Physiologically Based Biopharmaceutics Modeling for Tacrolimus Extended-Release Capsules

Establishment of Biopredictive Dissolution and Bioequivalence Safe Space Using the Physiologically Based Biopharmaceutics Modeling for Tacrolimus Extended-Release Capsules

Publication: AAPS PharmSciTech
Software: GastroPlus®
Division: PBPK

A slight variation in in vivo exposure for tacrolimus extended-release (ER) capsules, which have a narrow therapeutic index (NTI), significantly affects the pharmacodynamics of the drug. Generic drug bioequivalence (BE) standards are stricter, necessitating accurate assessment of the rate and extent of drug release.

De-Risking Clinical Hepatotoxicity in Early Drug Discovery

De-Risking Clinical Hepatotoxicity in Early Drug Discovery

Hepatotoxicity due to drugs and other xenobiotics, also known as drug-induced liver injury (DILI), is a primary reason for 1) the termination of drug development programs, 2) the delay of approving otherwise efficacious drugs by requiring large and expensive safety-focused clinical trials, 3) the restriction on the clinical use of approved drugs by the inclusion of black box warnings, and 4) the removal of approved drugs from the market.
