Optimal Design for Population Pk/pd Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
We provide some details of the implementation of optimal design algorithm in the PkStaMp library which is intended for constructing optimal sampling schemes for pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) studies. We discuss different types of approximation of individual Fisher information matrix and describe a user-defined option of the library.

An oracle: antituberculosis pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamics, clinical correlation, and clinical trial simulations to predict the future.
Antimicrobial pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) science and clinical trial simulations have not been adequately applied to the design of doses and dose schedules of antituberculosis regimens because many researchers are skeptical about their clinical applicability. We compared findings of preclinical PK/PD studies of current first-line antituberculosis drugs to findings from several clini...
متن کاملPopulation PK/PD Analysis
Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics are divisions of pharmacology that study the action of the body on the drug and the action of the drug on the body, respectively. They complete dose titration studies aimed to select rational dosage regimens. The classical pharmacokinetic (PK)/pharmacodynamic (PD) studies are experimental. They are usually performed on healthy volunteers or highly selected ...
متن کاملAnimal models in the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic evaluation of antimicrobial agents.
Animal infection models in the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) evaluation of antimicrobial therapy serve an important role in preclinical assessments of new antibiotics, dosing optimization for those that are clinically approved, and setting or confirming susceptibility breakpoints. The goal of animal model studies is to mimic the infectious diseases seen in humans to allow for robust P...
متن کاملNanomedicine for tuberculosis: Insights from animal models
Patient noncompliance to current tuberculosis (TB) therapy owing to multidrug administration daily leads to treatment failure and emergence of multidrug resistant and extensively drug resistant TB. To avoid the daily dosing, application of nanotechnology is the only viable solution by virtue of sustained release of drugs. Other potential advantages of the system include the possibility of selec...
