“…The underlying causes for these additional complexities in the exposure-response relationships can be diverse and related to factors such as active or inhibitory metabolites, indirect response characteristics, a transient time delay between concentration and effect, or an equilibration delay in the distribution of drug to the biophase compartment (5,12,14,16,17,(22)(23)(24)(26)(27)(28). Additionally, target-mediated PK models (21,29) and bi-or tri-molecular interaction PK-PD models (4,30) that describe antibody PK, the interactions between antigen(s) and antibody, and the elimination of free antigen(s) are highly informative tools used for prediction of safe and effective dosing strategies (13,31).…”
