Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) for biologic therapies in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) primarily aims to optimize dosing. However, several unmet needs remain. These include the identification of optimal drug concentrations, accounting for variability in pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD), and the frequent delays between sampling and clinical decision-making. Recent technical advances, such as population PK/PD modeling and model-informed precision dosing (MIPD) tools developed from such models, as well as point-of-care (POC) and self-sampling assays and novel software programs, offer potential solutions. Successful implementation of these innovations may help to establish MIPD for patients with IBD. This would enable personalized dosing, advancing a one-size-fits-all approach to TDM that currently is inadequate to fulfill the needs for every patient with IBD.

Background And Objective: Vancomycin is a glycopeptide antibiotic used for the treatment of severe gram-positive infections. Despite decades of clinical experience, optimized dosing for vancomycin in pediatric populations still warrants further investigation. Patients admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) after cardiac surgery are often treated with vancomycin in case of (suspected) infection.

Objective: Bipolar affective disorder (BAD) is a mood disorder with high morbidity and mortality. Quetiapine can be used in the treatment of patients with BAD; however, the precise administration regimen of quetiapine in these patients is still unknown. In this study, a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model of quetiapine in patients with BAD was constructed based on model-informed precision dosing (MIPD) and real-world clinical data and an optimal initial dose of quetiapine in these patients was recommended.

Current treatment recommendations mainly rely on rule-based protocols defined from evidence-based clinical guidelines, which are difficult to adapt for high-risk patients such as those with renal impairment. Consequently, unsuccessful therapies and the occurrence of adverse drug reactions are common. Within the context of personalized medicine, that tries to deliver the right treatment dose to maximize efficacy and minimize toxicity, the concept of model-informed precision dosing proposes the use of mechanistic models, like physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling, to predict drug regimes outcomes.
