Population-Based Mechanistic Prediction of Oral Drug Absorption
Open accessAbstract
The bioavailability of drugs from oral formulations is influenced by many physiological factors including gastrointestinal fluid composition, pH and dynamics, transit and motility, and metabolism and transport, each of which may vary with age, gender, race, food, and disease. Therefore, oral bioavailability, particularly of poorly soluble and/or poorly permeable compounds and those that are extensively metabolized, often exhibits a high degree of inter- and intra-individual variability. While several models and algorithms have been developed to predict bioavailability in an average person, efforts to accommodate intrinsic variability in the component processes are less common. An approach that incorporates such variability for human populations within a mechanistic framework is described together with examples of its application to drug and formulation development.

Simcyp provides a variety of options for the input of absorption parameters including several built-in correlation methods to scale in vitro measured values and the SIVA toolkit, whereas these methods are not present in PK-Sim.
“In general, Simcyp provides a variety of options (alternative to user defined/estimated) for the input of absorption parameters including several built‐in correlation methods to scale in vitro measured values as well as the Simcyp In Vitro data Analysis (SIVA) toolkit, 40 whereas in PK‐Sim, these methods are not present.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
