Development of a physiologically based pharmacokinetic model for intravenous lenalidomide in mice.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Lenalidomide is used widely in B-cell malignancies for its immunomodulatory activity. It is primarily eliminated via the kidneys, with a significant proportion of renal elimination attributed to active processes. Lenalidomide is a weak substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), though it is unclear whether P-gp is solely responsible for lenalidomide transport. This study aimed to determine whether the current knowledge of lenalidomide was sufficient to describe the pharmacokinetics of lenalidomide in multiple tissues.

Methods

A physiologically based pharmacokinetic model was developed using the Open Systems Pharmacology Suite to explore the pharmacokinetics of lenalidomide in a variety of tissues. Data were available for mice dosed intravenously at 0.5, 1.5, 5, and 10 mg/kg
