Applying machine learning to pharmacovigilance data: A proof‐of‐concept study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Machine learning (ML) applications in pharmacovigilance remain limited and underexplored. Using data from the French National pharmacovigilance database (FNPV), this proof‐of‐concept study aimed to assess the feasibility of using a ML algorithm—eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost)—combined with SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) analysis, to ...

Development of a population pharmacokinetic model using combined paediatric and adult data for four pulmonary arterial hypertension drugs

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a syndrome characterized by elevated pulmonary artery pressure. We developed a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model using combined plasma drug concentration data from Japanese paediatric (<15 years) and adult (≥15 years) patients with PAH to investigate the pharmacokinetic characteristics of PAH ...
