Pancreatic Cancer: Pathobiology, Treatment Options, and Drug Delivery
Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the USA. The high mortality rate is partly due to lack of effective treatments. This review summarizes the pathobiology and current treatment opti...
A Mathematical Model of the Effect of Immunogenicity on Therapeutic Protein Pharmacokinetics
A mathematical pharmacokinetic/anti-drug-antibody (PK/ADA) model was constructed for quantitatively assessing immunogenicity for therapeutic proteins. The model is inspired by traditional pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic...
Encapsulation of water-insoluble drug by a cross-linking technique: Effect of process and formulation variables on encapsulation efficiency, particle size, and in vitro dissolution rate
Ibuprofen-gelatin micropellets were prepared by the cross-linking technique using formaldehyde. Spherical micropellets having an entrapment efficiency of 65% to 85% were obtained. The effect of core to coat ratio, speed...
Influence of P-Glycoprotein Inhibition or Deficiency at the Blood–Brain Barrier on 18F-2-Fluoro-2-Deoxy-d -glucose (18F-FDG) Brain Kinetics
The fluorinated d -glucose analog 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-d -glucose (18F-FDG) is the most prevalent radiopharmaceutical for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. P-Glycoprotein’s (P-gp, MDR1, and ABCB1) funct...
A Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Model of Mitoxantrone in Mice and Scale-up to Humans: a Semi-Mechanistic Model Incorporating DNA and Protein Binding
We conducted a pharmacokinetic (PK) study of mitoxantrone (Novantrone®), a clinically well-established anticancer agent, in mice and developed a mechanism-based PBPK (physiologically based pharmacokinetic) model...
