PK/PD models to describe anti-ancer drug effect on the tumor volume

2 messages 2 people Latest: Jan 07, 2008
Dear NMusers, Does anyone aware any good published example (or non-public if you are willing to share) of modeling the anti-cancer drug effect on the tumor volume in nude mice model? And how this is normally used in the human dose projection, and any published work of such? Please advice. Thank you very much.

Here is the Avastin mouse-to-man PK/PD extrapolation: Efficacy and Concentration-Response of Murine MAb VEGF in Tumor-Bearing Mice and Extrapolation to Humans.? J. Mordenti, K. Thomsen, H. Chen, Y. G. Meng, V. Licko, N. Ferrara.? Toxicol. Pathol. 27:14-21, 1999.? This work was conducted in 1996 and was submitted with the Avastin IND to support Phase I dose selection/escalation. ?This preclinical study correctly predicted the marketed dose of Avastin, which was approved in 2004.?? Figures 1 and 9 tell the whole story.? ? Prediction: 2 mg/kg per week or slightly greater than double the dose every two weeks. Approved: 5 mg/kg every two weeks. - Joyce PS Email me off line, and I will forward a pdf to anyone who is interested.
