Physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling for development and applications of a virtual celiac disease population using felodipine as a model drug.

ABSTRACT: In celiac disease (CeD), gastrointestinal CYP3A4 abundance and morphology is affected by the severity of disease. Therefore, exposure to CYP3A4 substrates and extent of drug interactions is altered. A physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) population for different severities of CeD was developed. Gastrointestinal physiology parameters, such as luminal pH, transit times, morphology, P-gp, and CYP3A4 expression were included in development of the CeD population. Data on physiological difference between healthy and CeD subjects were incorporated into the model as the ratio of celiac to healthy. A PBPK model was developed and verified for felodipine extended-release tablet in healthy volunteers (HVs) and then utilized to verify the CeD populations. Plasma concentration-time profile and P
