Neither Gastric Bypass Surgery Nor Diet-Induced Weight-Loss Affect OATP1B1 Activity as Measured by Rosuvastatin Oral Clearance
ConclusionsNeither body weight, weight loss nor RYGB per se seem to affect OATP1B1 activity to a clinically relevant degree. Overall, the observed changes in rosuvastatin pharmacokinetics were minor, and unlikely to be of clinical relevance. (Source: Clinical Pharmacokinetics)

Optimization of β-Lactam Dosing Regimens in Neonatal Infections: Continuous and Extended Administration versus Intermittent Administration
ConclusionsContinuous infusion after a loading dose leads to a higher PTA compared with continuous, intermittent or prolonged infusion, and therefore has the potential to improve treatment with β-lactam antibiotics in neonates. (Source: Clinical Pharmacokinetics)

Clearance as an Early Indicator of Efficacy for Therapeutic Monoclonal Antibodies: Circumventing Dose Selection Challenges in Oncology
ConclusionsClearance of mAbs can be a tumor/drug target-agnostic biomarker for potential anti-tumor activity as clearance decreases with increasing ORR. Our findings shed important insights into target clearance values that may lead to desired efficacy for different cancers and drug targets, which can be used to guide dose selection for the future development of mAbs during FIH oncology studies.
