  1. 1. Pharmacometric Approaches to Improve Dose Individualization Methods in Hemophilia A

    Författare :João A. Abrantes; Mats Karlsson; Elisabet I. Nielsen; Siv Jönsson; Ron Mathôt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bayesian forecasting; coagulation factor VIII; dose adaptation; hemophilia haemophilia A; inter-occasion variability; NONMEM; pharmacodynamics; pharmacokinetics; pharmacometrics; therapeutic drug monitoring; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Hemophilia A is a bleeding disorder caused by the lack of functional coagulation factor VIII (FVIII). The overall aim of this thesis was to improve dose individualization of FVIII replacement therapy in hemophilia A using pharmacometric approaches. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Pharmacometric Models for Biomarkers, Side Effects and Efficacy in Anticancer Drug Therapy

    Författare :Emma K. Hansson; Lena Friberg; Mats O Karlsson; Charlotte Kloft; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacokinetics; Pharmacodynamics; Oncology; Febrile Neutropenia; GIST; Sunitinib; PHARMACY; FARMACI; Pharmacokinetics and Drug Therapy; Farmakokinetik och läkemedelsterapi;

    Sammanfattning : New approaches quantifying the effect of treatment are needed in oncology to improve the drug development process and to enable treatment optimization for existing therapies. This thesis focuses on the development of pharmacometric models for biomarkers, side effects and efficacy in order to identify predictors of clinical response in anti-cancer drug therapy. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Individually Tailored Toxicity-based Chemotherapy : Studies on Patients with Primary and Metastatic Breast Cancer

    Författare :Henrik Lindman; Jonas Bergh; Carl Blomqvist; Peter Nygren; Bo Nordenskjöld; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; breast cancer; tailored chemotherapy; toxicity-based dosing; high-dose therapy; MR imaging; G-CSF; epirubicin; docetaxel; cyclophosphamide; 5-fluorouracil; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : Standard dosing of chemotherapy based on body surface area (BSA) results in large individual differences in toxicity due to a large inter-patient variability in pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD). This results in under-dosing in certain patients with a potentially weaker antitumoral effect. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Study Design and Dose Regimen Evaluation of Antibiotics based on Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Modelling

    Författare :Anders Kristoffersson; Lena Friberg; Mats Karlsson; Pernilla Lagerbäck; Otto Cars; Stephan Schmidt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :pharmacometric; optimal design; pharmacokinetics; pharmacodynamics; PKPD; resistance; antibiotics; modeling; time-kill curve; colistin; meropenem; ciprofloxacin; non-linear mixed effects models; bayesian; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Current excessive use and abuse of antibiotics has resulted in increasing bacterial resistance to common treatment options which is threatening to deprive us of a pillar of modern medicine. In this work methods to optimize the use of existing antibiotics and to help development of new antibiotics were developed and applied. LÄS MER
