Pharmacokinetics
Modeling and simulation
Formulation and routes of administration
Toxicity evaluations
The assessment of drug absorption and metabolism
Interspecies scaling
Lead molecule selection and optimization via profiling
Screening using in silico and in vitro toxicity evaluations
The book also includes case studies on preclinical pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic modeling and simulation in drug development, a review of ICH preclinical guidelines, and experimental methods used to study membrane drug transport and metabolism. This guide is a fundamental resource for medicinal chemists, biologists, and other specialists in the drug development sciences.
