Stimulation of erythropoiesis with ESA or blood donation: QSP model Alexander Stepanov1, Galina Lebedeva2 1 InSysBio, Moscow, Russia; 2 InSysBio UK Ltd, Edinburgh, UK INTRODUCTION RESULTS: PK/PD of EPO RESULTS: PK/PD of dustats Erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) enhance the red blood cells Regulation effects of EPO were implemented via explicit description of The response of clinical outcomes such as reticulocytes count and (RBC) formation by bone marrow. They are used to manage anemic EPO binding to its receptor followed by internalization leading to erythropoietin levels to administration of HIF stabilizers (Roxadustat, states caused by chemotherapy, bleeding, bone marrow’s malfunctions. acceleration of cell proliferation and differentiation, and inhibition of Desidustat, Daprodustat and Molidustat) were described by the model. To predict the effect of pharmacological intervention on hematopoiesis- apoptosis. PK/PD parameters were calibrated against in vivo data for related clinical endpoints we propose the QSP model of erythropoiesis. single dosage regime of EPO (Fig. 2 and 3).
