11. In vitro Pharmacodynamics of Antifungal Agents in the Treatment of Candida Infections
Sammanfattning : Pharmacodynamic studies are important for the optimal use of antimicrobial agents. Combination antifungal therapy may be one method to improve outcome in invasive Candida infections. LÄS MER
12. Pharmacogenetic Studies of Paclitaxel in Ovarian Cancer : focus on interindividual differences in pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics
Sammanfattning : Ovarian cancer is one of the most common female cancer diseases in the world today and in Sweden more than 800 new cases are diagnosed every year. The standard treatment consists of chemotherapy with paclitaxel in combination with carboplatin after initial cytoreductive surgery. LÄS MER
13. Modelling and Simulation to Improve Antimalarial Therapy
Sammanfattning : The introduction of artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT) substantially reduced malaria-related mortality and morbidity during the past decade. Despite the widespread use of ACT, there is still a considerable knowledge gap with regards to safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetic properties of these drugs, particularly in vulnerable populations like children and pregnant women.

14. Pharmacometric Models for Improved Prediction of Myelosuppression and Treatment Response in Oncology
Sammanfattning : Chemotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of cancer. However, these drugs also cause death of non-malignant cells, resulting in severe side-effects. In addition, drug resistance may exist. Predictive tools for dose and drug selection are therefore warranted. LÄS MER
15. Pharmacometric Models for Biomarkers, Side Effects and Efficacy in Anticancer Drug Therapy
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
