Summary: The study focused on the metabolism of dextromethorphan (DXM) by cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6), utilizing a pharmacokinetics dataset and a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to explore the impact of genetic polymorphisms in CYP2D6 on drug metabolism. The modeling approach considered drug-gene interactions, variability in enzyme activity, and the relationship between genotype and metabolic phenotype, providing insights into individual prediction of metabolic ratios. The findings offer a comprehensive understanding of CYP2D6 variability and its implications for personalized medicine.

Summary: The use of nanobiomaterials in medicine is gaining popularity. This study implemented and parametrized a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to better understand the biodistribution of two nanobiomaterials in rats. The results showed significant kinetic differences between the two materials, highlighting the need for tailored parametrization of PBPK models. These findings contribute to the establishment of a comprehensive database for predictive biodistribution modeling.

Summary: PBPK modeling is a powerful tool with potential applications in the development of RNAi therapeutics, a class of drugs with unique pharmacokinetic properties. While there is active research in this area, there are still challenges to fully evaluating the utility of PBPK models for RNAi therapeutics. The current computational modeling approaches can support efficient development and approval of RNAi therapeutics, but further exploration and standardization are needed to optimize their use.

Summary: Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling and simulation is used to predict the pharmacokinetics of drugs, particularly in the skin following topical application. These models can help regulators and product developers identify factors affecting local and systemic exposure. In the generic drug field, the use of dermal PBPK modeling to support alternative bioequivalence approaches is increasing. This report discusses the scientific considerations for the development, verification, and validation (V&V) of PBPK models for dermatological drug products.

Summary: The study aimed to develop and validate a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model of meloxicam related to CYP2C9 genetic polymorphism, successfully simulating drug metabolism in different genotypes. The predicted exposures of meloxicam in CYP2C9*1/*3, CYP2C9*1/*13, and CYP2C9*3/*3 genotypes were increased compared to CYP2C9*1/*1 genotype. Through optimization of meloxicam dosing in different genotypes, the study is expected to contribute to reducing the risk of adverse events associated with meloxicam.
