Abstract
This Article shares the proceedings from the August 29th, 2023 (day 1) workshop "Physiologically Based Biopharmaceutics Modeling (PBBM) Best Practices for Drug Product Quality: Regulatory and Industry Perspectives". The focus of the day was on model parametrization; regulatory authorities from Canada, the USA, Sweden, Belgium, and Norway presented their views on PBBM case studies submitted by industry members of the IQ consortium. The presentations shared key questions raised by regulators during the mock exercise, regarding the PBBM input parameters and their justification. These presentations also shed light on the regulatory assessment processes, content, and format requirements for future PBBM regulatory submissions. In addition, the day 1 breakout presentations and discussions gave the opportunity to share best practices around key questions faced by scientists when parametrizing PBBMs. Key questions included measurement and integration of drug substance solubility for crystalline vs amorphous drugs; impact of excipients on apparent drug solubility/supersaturation; modeling of acid-base reactions at the surface of the dissolving drug; choice of dissolution methods according to the formulation and drug properties with a view to predict the in vivo performance; mechanistic modeling of in vitro product dissolution data to predict in vivo dissolution for various patient populations/species; best practices for characterization of drug precipitation from simple or complex formulations and integration of the data in PBBM; incorporation of drug permeability into PBBM for various routes of uptake and prediction of permeability along the GI tract.

J Pharm Sci 2021; 111:155-163. [PMID: 34461113 DOI: 10.1016/j.xphs.2021.08.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2021] [Revised: 08/25/2021] [Accepted: 08/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Biopharmaceutical precipitation assays are an important in vitro tool to characterize the precipitation behavior of weakly basic drugs during their transit from the stomach into the small intestine. To mimic the intestinal fluids more closely, biorelevant media like Fasted State Simulated Intestinal Fluid (FaSSIF) and versions thereof are often applied. When applying UV analytics to measure the drug concentration during the transfer experiments, changes in the UV spectrum of the medium have been observed when FaSSIF was stored over a longer period of time or under accelerated conditions. Therefore, this study aimed at evaluating the stability of FaSSIF under various storage conditions. Furthermore, the impact of stressed FaSSIF on the supersaturation and precipitation behavior of ketoconazole was investigated. As a result of this study, it was demonstrated that the FaSSIF powder composition changes during storage, which, in turn, impacts the supersaturation and precipitation behavior of ketoconazole in in vitro transfer studies. Based on the results of this study, we provide recommendations on the application of FaSSIF in biopharmaceutical precipitation assays with the aim to increase reproducibility and enhance data reliability for those compounds where changing FaSSIF composition may impact the supersaturation and precipitation behavior.
