“…Both these models have been proposed for the prediction of drug clearances in pediatrics (4,(8)(9)(10)(11). Although the BDE model was developed based on inulin clearance, the model's predictive power was comparable for GFR based on inulin and creatinine clearance.…”

“…Recent studies by many investigators have shown that the concept of quarter-power law or so-called theoretical allometry (fixed exponents of 0.25, 0.75, or 1.0) is incorrect (43)(44)(45)(46)(47)(48)(49)(50)(51). The exponents of allometry for drug clearance in preterm and term neonates are generally >1 (4,(8)(9)(10)(11)39). Therefore, it is not surprising that even for GFR the exponent 0.75 (model 3) provided a very poor prediction (systematic over-prediction by hundreds of percent) of GFR in preterm, term, and children ≤1 year of age as compared to exponent 1.15, 1.0, or 0.9, respectively.…”

“…This is similar to studies conducted in adults that have reported that GSTA1 polymorphisms could account for 15-18% of the variability in first-dose BU CL, and in line with the unexplained variability of BU CL among pediatric patients reported in a recent meta-analysis. 16,30,39 Homozygous GSTA1*A2 individuals had an augmentation of BU dose, owing to increased CL of BU. Although reaching the target level, *A2 carriers had still lower Css after the eighth dose as compared with non-carriers, which may suggest the need to reduce the BU dose in patient without *A2 haplotype.…”

“…2,[12][13][14] Body weight and body surface area have been also shown to contribute to PK variability. [15][16][17][18][19] Nevertheless, a large proportion of BU variability remains unexplained 20 and could be due to GST polymorphisms influencing GST activity [21][22][23][24][25] (Table 1). Although some studies have shown that GSTA1 genotypes influence the PK of oral and i.v.…”
