Exercise 13

Deconvolution analysis vs. modelling to document the

process of drug absorptionObjectives

To implement a WNL user model for a monocompartmental model ith to

processes of absorption either ith an algebraic e!uation or ith a set ofdifferential e!uations.

To compare to concurrent models" monocompartmental# ith a single site of

absorption vs. a monocompartmental model ith to sites of absorption using the $%& criterion

To obtain the input function of a drug using deconvolution to reveal informationabout its process of absorption.

Overview

Double pea's in the plasma concentration(time profile folloing oral administrationhave been reported for several compounds. )ultiple pea's after oral administrationof a drug could have several physiological causes.To describe a complicated drug plasma profile li'e a double pea'# there are topossible approaches" *i+ curve fitting using a modified customary compartmentalmodel *ii+ numerical deconvolution  to identify the input rate of the drug in the

central compartment.,or the present exercise e ill implement a pharmaco'inetic model in WNL thatas previously used in exercise - *)onte &arlo simulations# ioe!uivalence andithdraal time+ incorporating absorption from to different sites. The results ill becompared ith those from a deconvolution analysis.

Exercise

The goal of this experiment as to compare to formulations *$ and + of a nedrug product administered by the oral route at a dose of 1// 0g'g. Telve *12+animals ere investigated folloing a crossover design and the ra data are givenin the corresponding Excel sheet.

 $fter importing the data set in WNL# you ill inspect individual curves# you ill see anirregular initial phase ith a shoulder for some animals *e.g. animal 21+.

%t is clear that fitting this animal ith a conventional model ould most li'ely lead tosome misfit especially during the first hours folloing drug administration and even ifa fitting is apparently satisfactory# the estimated parameters could be severelybiased.We ill start to fit these different curves ith a classical monocompartmental model

ith a single rate constant of absorption.

The next figure shos the fitting obtained for animal 21 that loo's rather good.

Deconvolution analysis

OverviewDeconvolution is primarily used in ;5 to obtain the input function# ie the rate *0gh

or 0g.'g1h+ of drug entry into the central compartment.Deconvolution is useful to reveal in vivo drug release from a given pharmaceuticalform or in our case the delivery from the 2 sites of absorption based on data for a'non drug input *generally an %8 administration+."2e integral of t2e in-ut function gives t2e bioavailabilit.Deconvolution based bioavailability estimation methods are a more general approachto estimate bioavailability than conventional methods since the former provideestimates of both the rate of systemic upta'e and the total systemic dose.Estimated rates of bioavailability may potentially be used to"

• gain insights into the mechanisms of upta'e

enable better predictions of bioavailability under varying conditions

Technically# deconvolution is a techni!ue that can be used to estimate an in-utfunction& given the corresponding in-ut9res-onse function 0our data to anal<eand the im-ulse9res-onse function *concentration profile folloing an %8 bolusdose+ for the system.Deconvolution is t2e inverse of convolution.

Literally# if e 'no the disposition curve from a unit %8 dose *bolus+ and the rate ofinput of the drug into the plasma *input rate function+ then e can calculate the

plasma disposition curve from that input by convolution.

&lic' Calculate. Deconvolution generates a ne chart and or'boo'.Deconvolution generates three charts for each of the sorted 'eys.

The Fitted Curve output plot depicts concentration data from the input data set

plotted against time for animal P21# the curve shos a shoulder in the ascendingphase. This is the deconvoluted curve.

The next figure gives the $nut Rate  *0gh+ plot depicting the rate of drug inputagainst time for each profile. 8isual inspection of this figure shos clearly thepresence of to pea's in the input rate describing a rapid and a slo absorptionprocess.

The next figure is the Cumulative $nut  plot that displays cumulative drug input *in0gh+ against time for animal 21. 8isual inspection of the curve clearly shos thatthere is a biphasic absorption explaining the initial shoulder seen on the observedcurve.

The deconvolution or'boo' contains one or'boo' ith different or'sheets. Thevalues or'sheet includes values for Time# %nput ?ate# &umulative %nput and,raction %nput.

%nspection of the results for animal 1 shos that the total amount of absorbed drugas 1/G 0g'g and that -/: of the drug has been absorbed after a delay of 1-.J9h.

%t should be stressed that all the animals do not sho such a nice profile as foranimal 21.

Conclusion

Deconvolution is a poerful tool to document a process of absorption. &onvolution is

also extensively used in industry for in vitro2in vivo *%8%8+ extrapolations.
