Extrapolation of lung pharmacokinetics of bedaquiline across species using physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic modelling

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Bedaquiline (BDQ) is a first‐in‐class diarylquinoline (DARQ) and a potent anti‐tuberculosis drug, vital in combating multi‐drug resistant tuberculosis (TB). Understanding its lung pharmacokinetics (PK) across species is crucial for effective clinical translation.
