Abstract excerpt
The aim of this work was to develop a joint population pharmacokinetic model for simvastatin (SV) and its active metabolite, simvastatin acid (SVA), that incorporates the effects of multiple genetic polymorphisms and clinical/demographic characteristics. SV/SVA plasma concentrations, demographic/clinical data, and genotypes for 18 genetic variants were collected from 74 individuals (three clinical trials) and...
