Abstract
A physiologically based pharmacokinetic model was developed to describe the tissue distribution kinetics of a dendritic nanoparticle and its conjugated active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in plasma, liver, spleen, and tumors. Tumor growth data from MV-4-11 tumor-bearing mice were incorporated to investigate the exposure/efficacy relationship. The nanoparticle demonstrated improved antitumor activity compared to the conventional API formulation, owing to the extended released API concentrations at the site of action. Model simulations further enabled the identification of critical parameters that influence API exposure in tumors and downstream efficacy outcomes upon nanoparticle administration. The model was utilized to explore a range of dosing schedules and their effect on tumor growth kinetics, demonstrating the improved antitumor activity of nanoparticles with less frequent dosing compared to the same dose of naked APIs in conventional formulations.
