Population Physiologically-Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling to Determine Ontogeny: A Quantitative Clinical Pharmacology Example in Pediatric Rare Disease. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Pediatric physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modelling plays an increasing role in selecting doses in children and addressing clinical pharmacology questions. Ethical concerns often limit clinical pharmacology studies that have no direct therapeutic benefit in children, highlighting the value of PBPK model predictions.
