   Keywords : Pharmaceutical biosciences; pharmacokinetic; pharmacodynamic; mechanism-based; modelling; type 2 diabetes mellitus; tesaglitazar; PPAR; drug development; NONMEM; Farmaceutisk biovetenskap;

   Abstract : A central aim in drug development is to ensure that the new drug is efficacious and safe in the intended patient population. Mathematical models describing the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) properties of a drug are valuable to increase the knowledge about drug effects and disease and can be used to inform decisions.
