A White Paper on Advancing Long‐Acting Therapeutics for Maternal and Pediatric Health by Bridging Gaps in Clinical Research, Access and Regulation

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
As use cases for long‐acting therapeutics expand across clinical indications, there is a critical need to ensure the inclusion of women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, infants and children—populations with a historical gap in the availability of interventions already approved for use in adults.

Model‐Informed Evaluation of Hydroxyurea Exposure During Lactation

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Hydroxyurea is a cornerstone therapy for sickle cell anemia; however, evidence guiding its use during lactation remains limited. This study aimed to develop a population pharmacokinetic (PK) model to characterize hydroxyurea disposition in maternal plasma and breast milk, and to quantify infant exposure under clinically relevant breastfeeding scenarios.

Long‐Acting Therapeutics in Pediatric Health: Bridging Innovation and Access

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Children have distinct therapeutic needs arising from age‐dependent physiology, disease epidemiology, formulation requirements, dosing considerations, and safety vulnerabilities. Despite substantial reductions in childhood mortality over the past three decades, nearly 5 million children under five died in 2023, with infectious diseases continuing to ...

Phase I Evaluation of Siltartoxatug, a First‐in‐Class Anti‐Tetanus Monoclonal Antibody: Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics in Healthy Australian and Chinese Populations

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Siltartoxatug, a first‐in‐class monoclonal antibody targeting tetanus toxin for post‐exposure prophylaxis, was evaluated in two phase I trials in Australian and Chinese healthy adults. In these randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled, dose‐escalation studies, participants received a single intramuscular injection of siltartoxatug (10–250 μg/kg) or

Model‐Informed Dose Optimization of Anakinra in Preterm Neonates Implications for Safe and Effective Dosing

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Anakinra, an interleukin‐1 receptor antagonist, shows promise for reducing inflammatory complications of premature birth. However, the pharmacokinetics (PK) of anakinra in neonates has not been characterized, limiting evidence‐based dosing. This study aimed to develop a population PK model for anakinra to guide dosing in preterm neonates.
