管理的Guidance
While PBPK is not specifically required for a regulatory filing, the FDA has issued the 2018 FDA Guidance on PBPK Modeling Submissions and has strongly suggested including modeling in your data package. In addition, the 2017 EMA guideline for first-in-human (FIH) dosing recommends that estimation of FIH should be based on state-of-the-art modelling (e.g. PK/PD and PBPK) and/or using allometric factors.
PBPK can be used to support drug-drug interaction assessments and, in some cases, has been accepted in lieu of running clinical DDI studies.
