Development and evaluation of a population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model of darbepoetin alfa in patients with nonmyeloid malignancies undergoing multicycle chemotherapy
Anemia is frequently observed in patients undergoing chemotherapy. Administration of darbepoetin alfa, a recombinant erythropoiesis-stimulating agent that has longer residence time than endogenous erythropoietin, to pati...
Impact of Genetic Polymorphism on Drug-Drug Interactions Mediated by Cytochromes: A General Approach
Currently, quantitative prediction of the impact of genetic polymorphism and drug-drug interactions mediated by cytochromes, based on in vivo data, is made by two separate methods and restricted to a single cytochrome. W...
Effects of Device and Formulation on In Vitro Performance of Dry Powder Inhalers
The study examined the sensitivity of DPI in vitro performance to formulation and device changes. Rotahaler/Rotacaps was selected as the reference DPI drug product, and Aerolizer was selected as the test device. Since th...
Nonaqueous Gel for the Transdermal Delivery of a DTPA Penta-ethyl Ester Prodrug
