Lipids in human intestinal fluids (HIF) form various structures, resulting in phase separation in the form of a lipid fraction and a micellar aqueous fraction. Currently used fed state simulated intestinal fluids (SIF) lack phase separation, highlighting the need for a deeper understanding of the effect of these fractions on intestinal drug solubil...
The volume of distribution at steady state (Vss) in neonates is still often estimated through isometric scaling from adult values, disregarding developmental changes beyond body weight. This study aimed to compare the accuracy of two physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) Vss prediction methods in neonates (Poulin & Theil with Berezhkovskiy c...

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists are peptides consisting of nine or ten amino acid residues. GnRH agonists have been applied in the therapy of sexual hormone disorders like prostate cancer, endometriosis, uterine myoma, central precious puberty, and in-vitro fertility. Treatment is achieved by continuous hormone intake and long-term a...

BACKGROUND: Allopurinol, an xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitor, is a promising intervention that may provide neuroprotection for neonates with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Currently, a double-blind, placebo-controlled study (ALBINO, NCT03162653) is investigating the neuroprotective effect of allopurinol in HIE neonates. OBJECTIVE: The aim of...

Cystic fibrosis is a lethal inherited disease that affects multiple organs. To provide optimal pharmacological treatment of comorbidities associated with cystic fibrosis, relevant alterations in pharmacokinetics must be known. The objective of this study was to compare the pharmacokinetics of drugs between patients with cystic fibrosis and controls...

IntroductionContrasting findings have been published regarding the effect of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) on tuberculosis (TB) drug pharmacokinetics (PK).ObjectivesThe aim of this systematic review was to investigate the effect of HIV infection on the PK of the first-line TB drugs (FLDs) rifampicin, isoniazid, pyrazinamide and ethambutol by a...
BACKGROUND: Therapeutic drug monitoring involves therapeutic modifications based on the measurement of drug levels and antidrug antibodies. The viability of therapeutic drug monitoring in vedolizumab-treated patients with inflammatory bowel disease remains questioned. MAIN BODY: Accumulating evidence from clinical trials and real-world data suggest...

Identifying and understanding potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) are vital for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. This article discusses DDIs between doravirine, a nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI), and cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) substrates and drugs that modulate CYP3A activity. Consist...
