  1. 6. Mechanism-Based Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Modelling of Paclitaxel

    Author : Anja Henningsson; Mats O. Karlsson; Lena Friberg; Iñaki F. Trocóniz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacokinetics Pharmacotherapy; Pharmacokinetics; Pharmacodynamics; Mechanism-based; Modelling; Myelosuppression; Paclitaxel; Cremophor EL; NONMEM; Farmakokinetik Farmakoterapi; PHARMACY; FARMACI;

    Abstract : Paclitaxel (Taxol®) is now widely used against breast, ovarian and non-small-cell lung cancer. Anticancer agents generally have narrow therapeutic indices, often with myelosuppression (mainly neutropenia) as dose-limiting side effect. READ MORE

  2. 7. Using Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Principles to Evaluate Individualisation of Antibiotic Dosing – Emphasis on Cefuroxime

    Author : Anders Viberg; Marie Sandström; Otto Cars; Mats Karlsson; Hartmut Derendorf; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacokinetics Pharmacotherapy; Cefuroxime; pharmacokinetics; pharmacodynamics; dosing individualisation; NONMEM; Farmakokinetik Farmakoterapi; PHARMACY; FARMACI;

    Abstract : Cefuroxime is a renally eliminated antibiotic used against a variety of different bacterial infections. The pharmacokinetics (PK) for cefuroxime was studied in 97 hospitalized patients using population analysis. To be able to measure cefuroxime in human serum a new sensitive analytical method was developed using mass spectrometry detection. READ MORE

  3. 8. Pharmacodynamic Modelling of Irreversible and Reversible Gastric Proton Pump Inhibitors

    Author : Angela Äbelö; Mats Karlsson; Michael Looby; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacokinetics Pharmacotherapy; Farmakokinetik Farmakoterapi; PHARMACY; FARMACI;

    Abstract : Acid related diseases like GERD, duodenal-and gastric ulcers and H. Pylori-positive peptic ulcer disease are primarily managed by reducing gastric acidity. Irreversible proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) inhibit gastric acid secretion effectively throughout the day by irreversibly inhibiting the gastric proton pump, H+, K+-ATPase, in the parietal cells.

  4. 9. Estimation of Dosing Strategies for Individualisation

    Author : Siv Jönsson; Mats O. Karlsson; Leon Aarons; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmaceutical biosciences; Dosing strategy; Individualisation; Pharmacokinetic; Pharmacodynamic; Modeling; NONMEM; Decision making; Farmaceutisk biovetenskap; Biopharmacy; Biofarmaci;

    Abstract : To increase the proportion of patients with successful drug treatment, dose individualisation on the basis of one or several patient characteristics, a priori individualisation, and/or on the basis of feedback observations from the patient following an initial dose, a posteriori individualisation, is an option. Efficient tools in optimising individualised dosing strategies are population models describing pharmacokinetics (PK) and the relation between pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (PK/PD).

  5. 10. Methodological Studies on Models and Methods for Mixed-Effects Categorical Data Analysis

    Author : Maria C. Kjellsson; Mats O. Karlsson; Siv Jönsson; Gordon Graham; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacodynamics; Categorical data; Markov model; Modelling; NONMEM; NLMIXED; Laplace; Gaussian quadrature; Back-Step Method; Proportional odds model; Differential odds model;

    Abstract : Effects of drugs are in clinical trials often measured on categorical scales. These measurements are increasingly being analyzed using mixed-effects logistic regression. However, the experience with such analyzes is limited and only a few models are used. READ MORE
