Regulatory issue
• Approval was sought for monotherapy for pediatric population, without another clinical trial
• Clinical trial data for Drug X: – Adults: adjunct and monotherapy– Pediatric population: adjunct
• PK/PD modeling used for bridging the adjunct therapy data (data masked)

Bridging PK/PD Studies• General method comparing PK/PD response curves in:
Pediatric versus Adult populationsDifferent Regions
• Exposure: dose, AUC, Cmin, etc
• Response: biomarkers, clinical endpoints
• Goal is to evaluate similarity in PK/PD relationships between 2 populations
Conclude: similarity, similarity with some dose regimen modification; lack of similarity

STEPS IN THE STATISTICAL APPROACH
• assess similarity between responses at all concentrations likely to be encountered
• account for variability of the response
• need “Equivalence” type approach, not hypothesis tests showing that the responses are not significantly different
• analysis is more “exploratory” than “confirmatory”

Steps• Usual equivalence-type analysis:
– “similarity” defined as requirement that average responses in the 2 populations, at the same C, are closely similar:
– choose reference “goalposts” L and U, eg 80% to 125%
– calculate 95% confidence interval for ratio of average
responses (1 / 0) for “all” C

EXAMPLE: Drug X
• Response transformed by square root to stabilize the variance
• Linear models fitted separately for the two populations:
• sqrt(response) = a + b * Conc +
• For each C, 5000 pairs of studies generated 5000 estimates of 1/0, and percentiles

Remarks for example
• Response higher for pediatric population for concentrations above 50mg
=>Shows lack of similarity, but dose adjustment would be possible if high concentrations are called for
• Limits of (80, 125) might not be medically most sensible for interpretation in each situation
