The Finite Absorption Time Concept Guiding Model Informed Drug & Generics Development in Clinical Pharmacology
摘要
Purpose
To show the implications of the incorporation of the Finite Absorption Time (F.A.T.) concept in drug development plans and in generics development and assessment and to examine regulatory implications.
MethodsReexamining and reanalyzing published pharmacokinetic data using the pertinent models that are based on F.A.T.
ResultsComparing absorption metrics, old and new ones, shows distinct advantages and better accuracy for those based on the F.A.T. concept.
ConclusionThe proposed approaches can be applied successfully in all phases of drug/generics development and guide changes in their strategy and in the relevant regulatory framework.
