Retrospective Assessment of Translational Pharmacokinetic-Pharmacodynamic Modeling Performance: A Case Study with Apitolisib, a Dual PI3K/mTOR Inhibitor.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objectives

Despite significant progress in biomedical research, the rate of success in oncology drug development remains inferior to that of other therapeutic fields. Mechanistic models provide comprehensive understanding of the therapeutic effects of drugs, which is crucial for designing effective clinical trials. This study was performed to acquire a better understanding of PI3K-AKT-TOR pathway modulation and preclinical to clinical translational bridging for a specific compound, apitolisib (PI3K/mTOR inhibitor), by developing integrated mechanistic models.

Methods

Integrated pharmacokinetic (PK)-pharmacodynamic (PD)-efficacy models were developed for xenografts bearing human renal cell adenocarcinoma and for patients with solid tumors (phase 1 studies) to c
