Multiple Imputation of Missing Covariates in NONMEM and Evaluation of the Method’s Sensitivity to η-Shrinkage
Multiple imputation (MI) is an approach widely used in statistical analysis of incomplete data. However, its application to missing data problems in nonlinear mixed-effects modelling is limited. The objective was to impl...
Challenges in Development of Targeted Liposomal Therapeutics
Liposomes, phospholipid vesicles with a bilayered membrane structure, have been widely used as pharmaceutical carriers for drugs and genes, in particular for treatment of cancer. To enhance the efficacy of the liposomal...
Molecular modeling of mono- and bis-quaternary ammonium salts as ligands at the α4β2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subtype using nonlinear techniques
The neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) has been a target for drug development studies for over a decade. A series ofmono- andbis-quaternary ammonium salts, known to be antagonists at nAChRs, were separated...
Summary of Confirmation Cut Point Discussions
A subgroup of AAPS NBC Immunogenicity Workshop attendees met to discuss the current recommendations in white papers and guidance documents, to describe and discuss current practices, and to resolve concerns as to the bio...
Effect of rise in simulated inspiratory flow rate and carrier particle size on powder emptying from dry powder inhalers
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of carrier particle size and simulated inspiratory flow increase rate on emptying from dry powder inhalers (DPIs). Several flow rate ramps were created using a compute...
