• Describedata•Quantifyprocesses• Exploremechanisms•Makepredictions
Can get AUC, CL, Vd, t1/2, etc. from NCA• Can get these from modeling as well, and
• assess covariate effects (age, weight, CLcr, etc.)• describe absorption characteristics• explore metabolite formation rate constants• simulate concentrations to predict effects• directly link PK model with response
