Influence of OCT 1 Ontogeny and Genetic Variation on Morphine Disposition in Critically Ill Neonates: Lessons From PBPK Modeling and Clinical Study
10 Oct 2018
Abstract excerpt
Morphine is commonly used for analgesia in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) despite having highly variable pharmacokinetics (PKs) between individual patients. The pharmacogenetic (PG) effect of variants at the loci of organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1) and UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B7 (UGT2B7) on age-dependent morphine clearance were evaluated in a cohort of critically ill neonatal patients using an...
