Masterclass Overview Img

Overview

The in-house traininig will describe the processes that a drug undergoes after administration such as the absorption (when not administered intravenously), the distribution, including plasma protein binding, the metabolism (the biotransformation of the drug into its metabolites) and the excretion (via the bile in faces and via the kidney in urine). The use of PK during drug development will also be described. PK studies can facilitate knowledge management and decision making to streamline drug discovery and development and to reduce the attrition rate. The following topics will be discussed in details:
Absorption
Distribution
Metabolism
Excretion
Volume of distribution
Plasma protein binding
Clearance
Elimination half-life
