A Review of Virtual Twins in Physiologically‐Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling and Simulation

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The novel application of Virtual Twins (VT) in PBPK (VT‐PBPK) presents the opportunity to advance precision dosing and accelerate the shift from one‐size‐fits‐all to targeted, individualized treatments. This review aims to: (1) critically evaluate existing research on the use of VTs in PBPK, (2) develop a conceptual definition of VT‐PBPK, (3) describe ...

The Serotonin 2B (5‐HT2B) Receptor: A Narrative Review of Preclinical and Clinical Evidence on the Safety Considerations and Therapeutic Potential for the Treatment of Depression

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment‐resistant depression (TRD) remain leading causes of disability, providing the impetus for receptor‐level treatment strategies beyond monoamine reuptake. The serotonin 5‐HT2B receptor (5‐HT2BR) is uniquely positioned at the interface of central‐antidepressant mechanisms and peripheral cardiac risks.

Reducing Exposure Before Birth: An Interrupted Time Series Study of Prenatal Exposure to Fetotoxic Medications Under Risk Management Plans in Canada

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Canada's 2009 risk management plan (RMP) framework has not been evaluated for prenatal exposure impact. Conversely, widely used drugs such as nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) lack RMPs. We assessed first‐trimester exposure to RMP‐regulated medications following regulatory interventions and to NSAIDs following safety publications.

Investigations Into the Metabolism and Elimination of Tesofensine in Human Urine

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
This study investigated tesofensine metabolism and urinary elimination after a single 483 μg intake via a dietary supplement. In six volunteers, urine was collected up to 659 h. LC‐HRMS/MS identified four tentative metabolites; maximum urinary concentrations reached 4 ng/mL within 4–48 h.
