Introduction: Isoniazid is a first-line antituberculosis agent with high variability, which would profit from individualized dosing. Concentrations of isoniazid at 2 h (C), as an indicator of safety and efficacy, are important for optimizing therapy.

Objective: The objective of this study was to establish machine learning (ML) models to predict the C, that can be used for establishing an individualized dosing regimen in clinical practice.

Background: Accurate prediction of the optimal dose for β-lactam antibiotics in neonatal sepsis is challenging. We aimed to evaluate whether a reliable clinical decision support system (CDSS) based on machine learning (ML) can assist clinicians in making optimal dose selections.

Methods: Five β-lactam antibiotics (amoxicillin, ceftazidime, cefotaxime, meropenem and latamoxef), commonly used to treat neonatal sepsis, were selected.

Safe and efficacious antiviral therapeutics are in urgent need for the treatment of coronavirus disease 2019. Simnotrelvir is a selective 3C-like protease inhibitor that can effectively inhibit severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). We evaluated the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of dose escalations of simnotrelvir alone or with ritonavir (simnotrelvir or simnotrelvir/ritonavir) in healthy subjects, as well as the food effect (ClinicalTrials.
