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

Clinical 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.
