A predictive pharmacokinetic–pharmacodynamic model of tumor growth kinetics in xenograft mice after administration of anticancer agents given in combination

Abstract: PurposeIn clinical oncology, combination treatments are widely used and increasingly preferred over single drug administrations. A better characterization of the interaction between drug effects and the selection of synergistic combinations represent an open challenge in drug development process. To this aim, preclinical studies are routinely performed, even if they are only qualitatively analyzed due to the lack of generally applicable mathematical models.MethodsThis paper presents a new pharmacokinetic–pharm… Show more

“…However, the dimension of time is not considered. Furthermore fitted parameters may vary with drug exposure time, concentration, and schedule [16]. More advanced approaches can include cell or tumor dynamics in order to characterize time-dependent data [1618].…”

“…Furthermore fitted parameters may vary with drug exposure time, concentration, and schedule [16]. More advanced approaches can include cell or tumor dynamics in order to characterize time-dependent data [1618]. Here we advance PD modeling of drug interactions by extending the single-drug chemotherapy model of Lobo et al [19] to characterize simultaneously both single- and combined drug effects, and add an interaction parameter ψ [2021] to quantify cytotoxic effects of the combinations.…”
