Article Snippet: To derive intrinsic placental transfer parameters from perfusion data, we developed a mechanistic placenta model. Next, we developed a maternal and fetal full-body pregnancy PBPK model for doravirine in Simcyp, which was parameterized with the derived intrinsic placental transfer parameters to predict in vivo maternal and fetal doravirine exposure at 26, 32, and 40 weeks of pregnancy.
Techniques: Ex Vivo, Diffusion-based Assay
