Features v1.0
IVIVC Model Development Two-Stage Approach
Perform these processes in one integrated software application:
bullet Deconvolution, where the fraction or percentage of drug absorbed is determined.
bullet Correlate the in vivo fraction or percentage absorbed data to the in vitro fraction or percentage dissolved data.
bullet Develop a linear IVIVC model. Incorporate scaling into the model if needed.
bullet Evaluate the internal and external predictability of the developed IVIVC model.
 
Incorporate any or all of the following using this flexible modeling tool:
bullet Difference in IR and ER formulations
bullet Difference in bioavailability for IR and ER dosage forms
bullet Time scaling
bullet Time shifting
bullet Limit on GI absorption duration
 
External Predictability of an IVIVC Model
Evaluate the predictability of the IVIVC Model, using one or more additional test data sets that differ from those used to define the correlation. Compare results with regulatory criteria.
 
Prediction of In Vivo Characteristics from In Vitro Data
Predict In Vivo concentration-time profiles and their associated bioavailability parameters using a pre-existing IVIVC model and in vitro dissolution data. Provide support for a biowaiver or SUPAC submission or to aid in the formulation selection process before clinical studies.
 
Future Features
Exploration of In Vitro and In Vivo Relationships
bullet Utilize this capability early in the development process of the compound/formulation
bullet Optimize formulation development/selection decisions using simulations of the in vivo profiles and associated bioequivalence parameters, based upon either actual or hypothetical in vitro data
 
Level C IVIVC Model
Establish a single point relationship between a dissolution parameter, for example, percent dissoved in 4 hours and a pharmacokinetic parameter (e.g., AUC, Cmax, Tmax).
 
Multiple Level C IVIVC Model
Relate one or several pharmacokinetic parameters of interest to the amount of drug dissolved at several time oints of the dissolution profile.
 
Determination of Dissolution Specifications
Use PDx-IVIVC to add in vivo relevance to in vitro dissolution specifications, beyond batch-to-batch quality control. In this approach, the in vitro dissolution test becomes a meaningful predictor of in vivo performance of the formuation, and dissolution specifications may be used to minimize the possibility of releasing lots that would be different in in vivo performance.
 
IVIVC and Biowaiver Regulatory Guidance
Transition from scientific analyses to regulatory strategy within the same toolset. Review issues and methods presented in regulatory guidances related to IVIVC, biowaivers, and SUPAC. In addition, review case studies that demonstrate the application of an IVIVC to support biowaivers and SUPAC submissions.
