摘要:
A computerized system and method for planning a medical treatment for an individual under specific medical condition comprises a data input utility configured for receiving input data, and a data processor. The input data includes first input data comprising medical data of a specific individual, and second input data comprising data indicative of at least one endpoint of treatment. The data processor is configured for utilizing the medical data of the specific individual and the data indicative of the at least one endpoint and processing data indicative of disease progression models, each disease progression model corresponding to a treatment plan comprising one or more predetermined treatment protocols for treating the specific medical condition. The data processor generates output data indicative of a treatment effect on the individual with respect to each of the treatment plans and at least one endpoint to evaluate the treatment plans.
摘要:
Neutropenia is the dose-limiting toxicity of the tri-weekly docetaxel (Taxotere®) schedule. Here, we evaluate in Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC) patients (N=38) a computerized method for predicting docetaxel-induced neutropenia, and use the model to identify improved docetaxel and Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) regimens. Pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) models were created and simulated concomitantly with a mathematical granulopoiesis model. Individual baseline neutrophil counts and docetaxel schedules served as inputs. Our trial validated the model accuracy in predicting nadir timings (r=0.99), grade 3/4 neutropenia (86% success) and neutrophil profiles (r=0.62). Model was robust to CYP3A-induced variability, except for slightly less accurate grade 3/4 neutropenia predictions. Simulations confirm smaller toxicity of the weekly docetaxel regimen than the tri-weekly one, and suggest an optimal G-CSF support for alleviating neutropenia, 60 μg/day QD×3, 6-7 days post-docetaxel, administered tri- and bi-weekly, and 4 days post weekly docetaxel>33 mg/m2.
摘要:
A system for modeling thrombopoietic lineage in an individual is presented. The system comprises a thrombopoiesis system model including a process progression model, for cells involved in thrombopoiesis, said progression model including multiplication and differentiation. It further comprises a system model modifier, wherein said thrombopoiesis system model is modified by the system model modifier based on parameters specific to the individual. In addition to modifying an individual's thrombopoietic process, the system can be modified to portray different pathological scenarios as well as different scenarios of response to treatment.
摘要:
A method for repurposing a pharmaceutical compound. The method includes identifying a pharmaceutical compound, the pharmaceutical compound corresponding to a drug that has failed in clinical development or an approved drug. A mathematical model describing the physiological processes related to at least one disease and the effects of the pharmaceutical compound on the disease is created. The model is adjusted based upon information from preclinical or clinical trials. A new treatment protocol is suggested to salvage the failed drug or a new way to use an approved drug. The suggested treatment protocol is displayed. Systems and computer program products encompassing the above techniques are also disclosed.
摘要:
A method of performing interactive clinical trials for testing a new drug. A pre-clinical phase is performed in which a computer model for pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the drug is created and adjusted based on in vitro studies and in vivo studies in animals. A phase I clinical research is performed in which a clinical trial on at least a single dose is performed in parallel with performing computer simulation studies using the computer model. An optimal protocol is determined for the most responsive patient populations and indications for a phase II clinical trial. Phase II clinical trial is performed where a number of small scale clinical trials are performed in parallel based on results of the above. Phase III clinical research is performed for chosen indications by chosen protocols. Phase IV studies are performed for post-marketing subpopulation analysis and long term product safety assessment.
