In this episode I talk about dose proportionality, which is a surrogate for determining if we have linear clearance across a range of dose levels. I discuss 3 different methods that people use to determine dose proportionality along with a recommendation to use the power model method.

This episode is a discussion of covariate search methods. I give definitions of covariates and predictors, and then I describe 3 different covariate search methods. For each method I describe the pros and cons associated with each one, including bias and time limitations.

In this episode I discuss different methods of presenting pharmacokinetic and pharmacometrics results. I spoke about using PowerPoint and R Markdown derived HTML files. While I prefer HTML files in nearly all cases, I appreciate that sometimes PowerPoint format is required by some companies. I included multiple suggestions for both PowerPoint and HTML files that can help make the information presentation more effective.

This episode covers the terminal elimination rate constant calculated using non-compartmental analysis techniques. I reviewed how the rate constant is used to estimate half-life and extrapolate AUC to infinity, reviewed the methods for calculating the terminal rate constant value, and some important points about sample selection. Finally, I gave my reasons that we should ultimately stop talking about this and fretting over the method of calculation. Instead, let’s design better PK experiments with more optimal sampling to capture decline of the drugs we are studying.

Today I covered 2 different topics. First, I spoke about residual error models when modeling. I discussed additive, proportional, and power models. I also reviewed combined models and when they can be helpful. Then I spoke about modeling report submission packages. I explained what I put in those packages, how they are used, and some potential changes coming in the future.

This episode discusses simulations. I group simulations into 4 categories: (1) average response, (2) population, (3) individual, and (4) clinical trial simulations. I discuss details of each of these types of simulations and the different variability terms included in each one. I strongly recommend that we implement more clinical trial simulations in our work. This will help us design and execute more successful clinical trials that take advantage of our existing knowledge about a drug.

Today’s show is about different work environments and not scientific topics. Throughout my career I have worked in many different types of companies, and I would like to share some observations with you from those experiences. I have held positions at startup companies or small biotechnology companies, large pharmaceutical companies, contract research laboratories, consulting firms, and working for myself as a consultant, and now as a software developer. Although my work has been focused on clinical pharmacology and pharmacometrics, the jobs and work environments are very different.

Today’s show discussed biosimilar development from a clinical pharmacology perspective. I describe what biosimilar products are and the necessary comparisons to the reference product. I review requirements for PK similarity, PD similarity, immunogenicity, and safety. I also touch on the idea of interchangeability between the biosimilar and reference products.

Today’s show discussed approaches for modeling absorption profiles. I discussed the rationale behind modeling absorption and then described some common models. These included first-order absorption, zero-order absorption, transit compartments, distributed delay, Weibull, and zero/first order absorption. I also provided my recommendations on how to model absorption.

Today’s show is about TMDD or target-mediated drug disposition models. I review the scientific and physiologic basis for TMDD models, how to review data and determine if a TMDD model is needed. I review the various modeling approaches along with my recommendations for specific TMDD models. I hope this information helps you understand how to recognize TMDD behaviors and the options for modeling that data.
