MIDD for dose confirmation in special populations: full covariate modeling meets intersection-union testing

Presented at the International Symposium on Biopharmaceutical Statistics, March 2024. From basic dose adjustments to more ambitious programs for personalized medicine, pharmacometrics has a long tradition of informing tailored treatment strategies. Many of the modeling strategies are well-precedented, but formal decision frameworks are needed to address the question: how much data is enough to support a decision?

Population Pharmacokinetic (PK) and Exposure-Response (ER) Analysis of Empagliflozin in Pediatric Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM)

Presented at ACoP14. Empagliflozin, effective for type 2 diabetes in adults and children, underwent Study 1218.91 to assess its safety and efficacy over 26 weeks (with potential extension to 52 weeks) in children and adolescents. Using pediatric data from this study, researchers re-evaluated empagliflozin’s models in a Bayesian framework. Results showed similar drug exposure between children and adults at a 10 mg dose. At week 26, pediatric patients displayed a slightly larger but variable decrease in A1c compared to adults. This Bayesian method allowed insights into empagliflozin’s effects in children, drawing from knowledge gained in adult studies.

Choice of Hyperparameters for Spike And Slab Prior, with Application to Dose Optimization in Oncology

This poster highlights the use of population pharmacokinetic and exposure-response models with regularized regression using spike and slab priors to optimize dosing for specific patient subpopulations, particularly focusing on the context of valemetostat treatment for Adult T-cell Leukemia / Lymphoma (ATTLL) and Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL).
