A 20-Year Research Overview: Quantitative Prediction of Hepatic Clearance Using the In Vitro-In Vivo Extrapolation Approach Based on Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling and Extended Clearance Concept
DRUG METABOLISM AND DISPOSITION(2023)
Abstract
Understanding the extended clearance concept and establishing a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model are crucial for investigating the impact of changes in transporter and metabolizing enzyme abundance/functions on drug pharmacokinetics in blood and tissues. This mini-review provides an overview of the extended clearance concept and a PBPK model that includes transporter-mediated uptake processes in the liver. In general, complete in vitro and in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) poses challenges due to missing factors that bridge the gap between in vitro and in vivo systems. By considering key in vitro parameters, we can capture in vivo pharmacokinetics, a strategy known as the top-down or middle-out approach. We present the latest progress, theory, and practice of the Cluster Gauss-Newton method, which is used for middle-out analyses. As examples of poor IVIVE, we discuss "albumin-mediated hepatic uptake" and "time -dependent inhibition" of OATP1Bs. The hepatic uptake of highly plasma bound drugs is more efficient than what can be accounted for by their unbound concentration alone. This phenomenon is referred to as "albumin-mediated" hepatic uptake. IVIVE was improved by measuring hepatic uptake clearance in vitro in the presence of physiologic albu- min concentrations. Lastly, we demonstrate the application of Cluster Gauss-Newton method-based analysis to the target-mediated drug disposition of bosentan. Incorporating saturable target binding and OATP1B-mediated hepatic uptake into the PBPK model enables the consideration of nonlinear kinetics across a wide dose range and the prediction of receptor occupancy over time.
