Avoid drug-drug interactions (DDI)?Avoid Polymorphism? Avoid DDI?

Predict in vivo rat enzyme induction.Predict CYP 3A4 induction in humans.

Predict human metabolic rate.Look for human-specific metabolites.Ex vivo degradation?

Normalize exposure based on ‘free’ drugConfirm actual concentration.

Predict human absorption potential.

Assay Rationale

Discovery DMPK In Vivo Studies

Study Rationale

Full” PK (IV & PO): Predict human PK

Single-rising dose: Adequate exposure for safety testing

14-Day Rat multiple dose: Steady-state; tumorigenic induction

‘Hot’ PK (3H-SCH) : Absorption and circulating metabolites

Metabolite Pathway Elucidation: Identify metabolites in ‘safety’ species

Mass Balance of 3H-SCH: Avoid unusual retention of metabolites

Melanin Binding (LE rats): Assess phototoxicity potential

PK/PD: Estimate efficacious drug exposure

Developable form acceptability: Adequate exposure for safety testing

Safety and preclinical toxicology

SafetyEffect on the principal physiological system (cardiovascular, renal, nervous, etc).

Precinical toxicology

To establish :1. safe dose 2. MTD (maximum tolerated dose)3. terapeutic window4. target organs5. Reversibility of toxicity

Safety pharmacology

Toxic effects could mechanism-based or compound-based.

Page 9: The Ideal DMPK Profile versus Lead Optimization

Preclinical toxicology

•Acute toxicity profile

•Chronic toxicity profile

• 14 days toxicity test in one rodent and one non-rodent species before use in man.

• 3 months study read out at 28 days

• longer studies (12 & 24 month)

• Mutagenicity tests in vitro and in vivo

It is possible to obtain a clear separation between antithrombotic and bleeding effects

Moving from Animals to Man1. Humans and animals have different biochemistry, physiology and

anatomy

2. Predictions of a drug’s PK profile in humans using animal PK data must account for these differences

3. Allometric scaling is used to predict differences based only on size.• The relationship of some PK parameters across species can be correlated with

body weight.• One can determine an empirical relationship log PK parameters and log Body

Weight• These parameters can be used to extrapolate PK parameters in humans when

parameters have been determined in lower species (mouse, rat, dog, monkey, etc.)

• The relationship is not always predictive, but it can often give a good estimate.

Formulation studyFormulation study

Example of composition of a tablet:

•Active principle, filler, binder,

lubricant, disintegrant, surfactant.

• Pharmaceutical form: tablet , capsule, cream, injection, etc

•To achieve the best effect is necessary to identify not only the best form but also the most suitable formulation.

Objectives of Clinical Trials

• Phase I: First in man safety e tolerability

• Phase II: First in patient

IIa safety and tolerability

IIb dose, dosage form

• Phase III: Value (is better than existing treatments)

• Post marketing surveillance or Phase IV : Monitor the drug in the real clinical setting
