Microdosing and drug development: past, present and future

Abstract: Introduction Microdosing is an approach to early drug development where exploratory pharmacokinetic data are acquired in humans using inherently safe sub-pharmacologic doses of drug. The first publication of microdose data was 10 years ago and this review comprehensively explores the microdose concept from conception, over the past decade, up until the current date. Areas covered The authors define and distinguish the concept of microdosing from similar approaches. The authors review the ability of microdosi… Show more

“…There have been concerns that extrapolation of PK data derived from microdosing could be unreliable and could poorly predict drug disposition of drugs when given at therapeutic doses. However, current evidence suggests otherwise, and in most cases, microdosing is an excellent predictive tool for full-dose human PK, compared with alternative methods (44)(45)(46). Though rapid and noninvasive, PET imaging is limited by its resolution, approximately 1 mm with preclinical scanners, so other techniques will have to be implemented if higher-resolution analyses are required.…”

“…Human microdose studies have been used to verify human PK of drug candidates, particularly when there is uncertainty due to high interspecies variation in preclinical PK properties (39,40). A microdose study can help determine if future development is warranted.…”

“…Currently there are 35 compounds where micro dose and therapeutic dose data have been compared out of which 27 tested orally showed scalable pharmacokinetics between a micro dose and a therapeutic dose (79 %) and 100 % of those tested intravenously 16 . Present ICH M3 guideline, permits human micro dosing based on a single dose toxicity study in any one animal model, followed by 14 days observation, preferably in the intended route of administration along with an in vitro target receptor data 17 .…”
