    PhUSE US Connect 2019 Paper AB06 The Power of Data Sharing: Real Projects with Real Impacts Dave Handelsman, Project Data Sphere, LLC, Cary, NC, USA ABSTRACT Data sharing leading to improved cancer patient outcomes provides exciting examples of applying Big Data and Analytics to clinical research. Since 2014, Project Data Sphere has aggregated patient-level data from more than 135,000 patients spanning 150 trials, and made this data available for exploration and investigation to more than 2,000 researchers. This successful data sharing program has enabled medically relevant insights to be discovered and published in leading peer-accepted journals, and new research programs are underway, including: • Development of an external control arm for small cell lung cancer that may eliminate the need to enroll cancer patients in standard-of-care comparator treatment arms • Development of machine learning tools for tumor image processing • Investigations into rare but serious adverse events associated with new of immuno-oncology therapies In this session, the opportunities and challenges of clinical trial data sharing will be discussed as they relate to Big Data and Analytics. INTRODUCTION Data sharing has broad meaning, even when discussed in the context of clinical research. Depending on the context, this concept can refer to the sharing of patient-level data traditionally associated with clinical trials, or it can alternatively (or additionally) refer to less traditional data types such as genomics and images, and can also refer to data extracted from electronic health records. For the purposes of this paper, data sharing will be discussed in the context of data made available from completed clinical trials.

This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract Malcolm Rowland has greatly facilitated an understanding of drug structure–pharmacokinetic relationships using a physiological perspective. His view points, covering a wide range of activities, have impacted on my own work and on my appreciation and understanding of our science. This overview summarises some of our parallel activities, beginning with Malcolm’s work on the pH control of amphetamine excretion, his work on the disposition of aspirin and on the application of clearance concepts in describing the disposition of lidocaine. Malcolm also spent a considerable amount of time developing principles that define solute structure and transport/pharmacokinetic relationships using in situ organ studies, which he then extended to involve the whole body. Together, we developed a physiological approach to studying hepatic clearance, introducing the convection–dispersion model in which there was a spread in blood transit times through the liver accompanied by permeation into hepatocytes and removal by metabolism or excretion into the bile. With a range of colleagues, we then further developed the model and applied it to various organs in the body. One of Malcolm’s special interests was in being able to apply this knowledge, together with an understanding of physiological differences in scaling up pharmacokinetics from animals to man. The description of his many other activities, such as the development of clearance concepts, application of pharmacokinetics to the clinical situation and using Based on an invited presentation at the European Pharmaceutical Sciences Meeting: Pharmacokinetics: Spearheading advances and delivering the science (on the occasion of Professor Malcolm Rowland’s 70th birthday) London, October 5, 2009.

  • Development of a Novel Simplified PBPK Absorption Model to Explain the Higher Relative Bioavailability of the OROS® Formulation of Oxybutynin
    The AAPS Journal ( # 2016) DOI: 10.1208/s12248-016-9965-3 Research Article Development of a Novel Simplified PBPK Absorption Model to Explain the Higher Relative Bioavailability of the OROS® Formulation of Oxybutynin Andrés Olivares-Morales,1,2,5 Avijit Ghosh,3 Leon Aarons,1 and Amin Rostami-Hodjegan1,4 Received 27 April 2016; accepted 21 July 2016 Abstract. A new minimal Segmented Transit and Absorption model (mSAT) model has been recently proposed and combined with intrinsic intestinal effective permeability (Peff,int) to predict the regional gastrointestinal (GI) absorption (fabs) of several drugs. Herein, this model was extended and applied for the prediction of oral bioavailability and pharmacoki- netics of oxybutynin and its enantiomers to provide a mechanistic explanation of the higher relative bioavailability observed for oxybutynin’s modified-release OROS® formulation compared to its immediate-release (IR) counterpart. The expansion of the model involved the incorporation of mechanistic equations for the prediction of release, transit, dissolution, permeation and first-pass metabolism. The predicted pharmacokinetics of oxybutynin enantiomers after oral administration for both the IR and OROS® formulations were in close agreement with the observed data. The predicted absolute bioavailability for the IR formulation was within 5% of the observed value, and the model adequately predicted the higher relative bioavailability observed for the OROS® formulation vs. the IR counterpart. From the model predictions, it can be noticed that the higher bioavailability observed for the OROS® formulation was mainly attributable to differences in the intestinal availability (FG) rather than due to a higher colonic fabs, thus confirming previous hypotheses. The predicted fabs was almost 70% lower for the OROS® formulation compared to the IR formulation, whereas the FG was almost eightfold higher than in the IR formulation.

  • PBPK) Models of Methyl-Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE
    ABSTRACT SMITH, NIKKI SHAVON. A Comparison of Physiologically-Based Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) Models of Methyl-Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE). (Under the direction of Hien T. Tran and Marina V. Evans.) Methyl-tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE) is a gasoline additive that gained widespread use after the passage of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 designed to help reduce urban air pollution and toxic air emissions. Reports of water contamination and adverse health affects from inhalation exposure to MTBE also grew. We review MTBE carcinogenicity studies conducted in rodents and complete physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) inhalation model comparisons, parameter estimation, and an assessment of design elements that help fit available human data. PBPK models are mathematical constructs that consider different organs and tis- sues as compartments and make it possible to obtain a quantitative characterization of concentration-time profiles in the respective compartments. We specifically test a hypothesis whether complexity should be added to the lung compartment for substances with a large blood:air partition coefficient. Further, since rats exposed to MTBE exhibited renal tumors, we consider metabolism as a mode of action for that endpoint and we include a kidney metabolism pathway, which is generally not used in PBPK models, in our model. Finally, we use sensitivity analysis and model validation and comparison techniques to assess the lung complexity hypothesis, draw conclusions about the inclusion of the kidney metabolism pathway, and drive model design iterations by removing parameters, and thus, metabolism pathways that are not significant to the models’ results. Initial model analysis outcomes indicate that model simplicity prevails and adding lung complexity for the test case high blood:air partition coefficient substance (in this case MTBE’s metabolite, tert-Butyl-alcohol) is not desirable.

  • Population Modelling
    ® 1999 Elsevier Science B.V, All rights reserved. Variability in Human Drug Response 239 G.T. Tucker, Editor Population Modelling Leon Aarons School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Manchester, Manchester, U.K. ABSTRACT Frequently dosing recommendations that emerge from a clinical drug development program are found inappropriate and when individual dose adjustment is needed, the recommendations provided may not be informative enough to allow the adjustment to be undertaken in an optimal manner. Frequently, and particularly in the later stages of drug development, only relatively sparse observational concentration and effect data are available. Recently developed statistical methods offer the possibility of gaining integrated information on pharmacokinetics and response from such data, obtained directly in patients who are being treated with the drug under development. The methods allow the incorporation of data from patient groups which are often excluded from classically designed clinical trials and also the analysis of a variety of unbalanced designs that frequently arise in the evaluation of dose or concentration- efficacy and -safety profiles, which do not readily lend themselves to other forms of statistical analysis. The analysis of sparse observational data, which is called the population approach, has been implemented in phase in studies to obtain additional information about the PK/PD model. However, the primary purpose of phase III clinical trials generally is not PK/PD and consequently population PK/PD studies must be carefully interwoven with existing protocols. Key words: drug development, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, sparse data.
