Hi, There is a way to estimate the between animal variability even if you only have one measurement per animal. If you make a reasonable estimate of the residual error and fix the residual error parameter(s) in SIGMA then you can estimate the between animal variability using OMEGA. However, as Katya points out, mice are essentially clones and usually have very little between animal variability so it may make more sense to assume that this variability is zero. You still use all the observations in the data file. Just fix OMEGA to zero and estimate SIGMA. Nick

You can pool the data from 5 animals, and do kinetic modeling (PBPK or any other modeling) with the pooled data. With one time point per mouse you will not be able to distinguish between inter- and intra- animal variability. As a ballpark you can quantify variability in concentrations at each time point and organ by just summarizing concentrations of 5 mice. Mice are all inbred and very different in their variability from humans, so what will you gain by characterizing variability in mice more precisely? Same question about bias in the parameters: in scaling from animals to humans predicting clearance withing 2-5 fold range is considered to be a success, so bias in the estimated parameters due to pooling the data is negligible compared to other implicit assumptions we make when we extrapolate the results to humans. > > Regards, > Katya > > Ekaterina Gibiansky, Ph.D. > CEO&CSO, QuantPharm LLC > Web:www.quantpharm.com > Email: EGibiansky at quantpharm.com > Tel: (301)-717-7032 > > On 6/2/2011 4:31 PM, Olinto Linares wrote: > > > Thanks *Matt*for the suggestion.

The plasma PK of the nanoparticles should if I don’t completely misunderstand the project be closely related to the biodistribution in one or several organs/tissues. If multi sample plasma PK and single sample tissue concentration was modeled simultaneous a large part of the problem with single sample tissue observations could be avoided. You likely still couldn’t separate the between mice variability in any parameter exclusively describing the rate of a tissue distribution from the residual error (unless you make some fairly strong assumptions regarding the residual error) however the variability in tissue concentration will likely be largely dependent on variability in processes also affecting the plasma concentrations. > > > > Kind regards, > > > > Martin Bergstrand, PhD > > > > Pharmacometrics Research Group > > > > Dept of Pharmaceutical Biosciences > > > > Uppsala University > > > > Sweden > > > > Postal address: Box 591, 751 24 Uppsala, Sweden > > > > Phone +46 709 994 396 > > > > Fax + 46 18 4714003 > > > > *From:* [email protected] [ mailto: [email protected] ] *On Behalf Of *Fidler,Matt,FORT WORTH,R&D > > > > *Sent:* Thursday, June 02, 2011 7:43 PM > > *To:* [email protected]; [email protected] > > *Subject:* RE: [NMusers] PAMAM-OH nanoparticles > > > > Olinto, > > > > Hing et al reported using mixed-effect modeling instead of fixed effects modeling to characterize data (and may reduce parameter bias).
