Hello all,
I have searched the literature and have been unable to find any
references leading to the predictability of maximum absorbed dose
(MAD) and/or intact drug bioavailability in the presence of gut
efflux transporters (passive absorption). For the time being, I will
assume complete drug is solubilized throughout the gut. Can anyone
provide insight and/or references. Initially, I suppose one could
also assume one efflux transporter, with the ratio of permeability
values bidirectionally known. Also, if one is using a program such as
GastroPlus or Simcyp, it would be helpful (if not proprietary
information) to provide the equations. Thanks.

Dear Clerk,
Marija Tubic, Peter Langguth, and I have published a paper
recently, describing a GastroPlus model for the non-linear dose
dependence of talinolol absorption due to saturation of Pgp. We
describe pitfalls going from in vitro measurements to in vivo
prediction. We're working on another article that describes the
application of the model to prediction of controlled release.
GastroPlus is pretty much of an open book simulation program. We
don't supply source code but the equations are described in the
following publications.
