  1. 16. Modelling of tolerance and rebound in normal and diseased rats

    Författare :Christine Ahlström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :feedback modelling; tolerance; rebound; pharmacokinetics; pharmacodynamics; dyslipidaemia; nicotinic acid; non-esterified fatty acids;

    Sammanfattning : The development of rebound and tolerance is an important consideration when optimizing medical therapy, both with respect to drug dosing and adverse effects. By using quantitative approaches to study these processes, potential risks can be minimized. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Pharmacometric tools to support translational drug development

    Författare :Rami Ayoun Alsoud; Ulrika S. H. Simonsson; Michael Lyons; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; drug development; pharmacometrics; pharmacokinetics; pharmacodynamics; non-linear mixed effect models; tuberculosis; dose selection; interspecies scaling; pediatric trials; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Sammanfattning : The use of model-informed drug development has been shown to save significant costs and improve decision making early in the drug development process. The work in this PhD thesis aimed to employ pharmacometric tools to support translational drug development from the preclinical to the late clinical stages. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Oral eflornithine treatment of late-stage human African trypanosomiasis

    Författare :Mikael Boberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Sleeping Sickness; Neglected Tropical Diseases; Enantiomers; Nonlinear Mixed Effects Modeling; Pharmacokinetics; Pharmacodynamics;

    Sammanfattning : Human African trypanosomiasis is a fatal disease unless treated. It is a parasitic vector borne disease endemic in sub-Saharan African countries. Eflornithine is a recommended treatment for gambiense human African trypanosomiasis (g-HAT) in the later disease stage when the parasites have infected the central nervous system. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Pharmacokinetic-Pharmacodynamic Evaluations and Experimental Design Recommendations for Preclinical Studies of Anti-tuberculosis Drugs

    Författare :Chunli Chen; Ulrika Simonsson; Mats Karlsson; Sebastian Wicha; Bernd Meibohm; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; tuberculosis; pharmacokinetics; pharmacodynamics; pharmacometrics; the Multistate Tuberculosis Pharmacometric model; the General Pharmacodynamic Interaction model; optimized design; rifampicin; isoniazid; ethambutol; pyrazinamide; Pharmaceutical Science; Farmaceutisk vetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Tuberculosis is an ancient infectious disease and a leading cause of death globally. Preclinical research is important for defining drugs and regimens which should be carried forward to human studies. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Semi-mechanistic models of glucose homeostasis and disease progression in type 2 diabetes

    Författare :Steve Choy; Maria Kjellsson; Mats Karlsson; Willem de Winter; Andrea Mari; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; pharmacokinetics; pharmacodynamics; pharmacometrics; glucose homeostasis; insulin; type 2 diabetes; obesity; weight; visceral adipose tissue; HbA1c; non-linear mixed effects; modelling; disease progression; ZDSD rats; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by consistently high blood glucose, resulting from a combination of insulin resistance and reduced capacity of β-cells to secret insulin. While the exact causes of T2DM is yet unknown, obesity is known to be a major risk factor as well as co-morbidity for T2DM. LÄS MER
