Read moreAssessing clinical outcomes of nosocomial pneumonia patients with a pharmacometric multistate model
Objectives: In the field of antibiotics, pharmacometric methods are usually applied to preclinical data that mostly contains longitudinal information. However,…
Read moreThe FAIR approach: Utilising a modelling and simulation workflow leveraging multisource data to support preclinical development and clinical trials
Background and Objectives: In this work, we outline how mathematical modelling can be utilised throughout the development of an inhaled…
Read moreQuantitative modelling of procalcitonin as a treatment response biomarker in sepsis
Introduction: The use of host response biomarkers to guide antibiotic treatment of bacterial infections is well established. Procalcitonin (PCT) represents…
Read moreMacrophage-induced reduction of bacteriophage density limits the efficacy of pulmonary phage therapy
Objectives: The rise of antimicrobial resistance has led to renewed interest in evaluating the efficacy of phage therapy [1]. In…
Read moreRifampin co-administration with clindamycin can result in failure to reach the PKPD targets in staphylococcal osteoarticular infections
Objectives: In staphylococcal osteoarticular infections (OAI), the oral combination of clindamycin and rifampin, is a relevant choice [1,2]. However, rifampin…
