Population Pharmacokinetics of Oral Brepocitinib in Healthy Volunteers and Patients.

ABSTRACT: Brepocitinib is a tyrosine kinase 2 and Janus kinase 1 inhibitor in development for treatment of inflammatory autoimmune diseases. This analysis aimed to add to the pharmacokinetic knowledge of the medication, through development of a population pharmacokinetic model and identification of factors that affect drug disposition. Plasma samples from 5 clinical trials were collated, composed of healthy volunteers, patients with psoriasis and patients with alopecia areata taking oral brepocitinib. NONMEM was used to develop a population pharmacokinetic model, and patient demographics were tested as covariates. The final model was a 1-compartment model with first-order absorption. The typical values for apparent clearance and apparent volume of distribution were 18.7 L/h (78% coefficient of varia
