Efficacy Toxicity Exposure Why a bayesian forecasting method ? Consequence of PK Variability : the same dose gives different exposures
Efficacy Toxicity Exposure Why a bayesian forecasting method ? Consequence of PK Variability : the same dose gives different exposures We need to anticipate the "level" of exposure
Exposure How to predict exposure ?
POPULATION PK Cannot be predicted with covariates Need further information Exposure Covariate : e.g. Age How to predict exposure ?
a priori information A blood sample at this time The bayesian approach Same dose animals with the same age Probably a high exposure
Probably a small exposure A blood sample at this time The bayesian approach Same dose animals with the same age a priori information
Exposure ? A blood sample at this time The bayesian approach Same dose animals with the same age a priori information
Why population information is needed ? Concentration Exposure ? Time A blood sample at this time
A blood sample at this time The bayesian approach Same dose animals with the same age
Frequency Exposure A blood sample at this time The bayesian approach Same dose animals with the same age
The a posteriori distribution Distribution of exposure for animals that received the same dose have the same age have the same drug concentation at the sampling time Frequency Exposure Maximum a posteriori (MAP) = Bayesian estimate = most common exposure
Frequency Exposure The a priori information Same dose animals with the same age A blood sample at this time
Frequency Exposure The a priori information Same dose animals with the same age A blood sample at this time
Frequency Exposure The a priori information Same dose animals with the same age A blood sample at this time
Exposure Covariate : e.g. Age How to predict exposure ? POP. PK
Exposure Covariate : e.g. Age How to predict exposure ? POP. PK + 1 concentration POP. PK
Exposure Covariate : e.g. Age How to predict exposure ? POP. PK + 2 concentrations POP. PK + 1 concentration POP. PK
Problem of highly variable drugs ? 1st Administration: fixed dose Concentration A blood sample at this time Time
Problem of highly variable drugs ? 2nd Administration: same animal, same dose as 1st Large inter-occasion variability Concentration A blood sample at this time Time
How does it work ? A population model jth concentration measured on the ithanimal jth sample time of the ithanimal
How does it work ? A set of concentrations on THE animal : (t1, Z1), (t2, Z2), … Maximize the a posteriori likelihood Minimize
To summarize Bayesian forecasting can be useful for: pets touchy drugs (narrow therapeutic index) It requires: results of a pop PK study some concentrations on the animal a recent computer Can’t work for large inter-occasion variability
