DeterminationDetermination
The evaluation of BA is made by data
comparison of the BA from tested product and
the BA data from a solution, suspension or IV
dosage form.
So this determination must be considered as a
value of the performance of the drug dosage
form, quite as a parameterof the dosage form.

The technological factors have the same influence in Adultsand children ,except for dissolution rate due to the difference
of volume of G.I tract liquids for exampleand taste of DF
which increase the gastric secretion (Pavlov)
Physiological factors influencing BD: They are fundamentally
different from adults.

Modification of absorption phenomenaModification of absorption phenomena
Oral Route :Rate of intestinal absorption decreased in the newborn.
Gastric pH:
* no HCl in the newborn until the end of the first month
** the level of gastric secretion of adults is reached only after four to sixyears.
This can explain:
*the low absorption of weak acid like Phenobarbital and Aspirin and
**a better absorption of weak basic substances.

Oral RouteOral Route
Gastric emptying rate is decreased in the newborn
The half- life is about 90 minutes. At six to eight months this valuereach the adults value,80 min.
the synthesis of biliary acid is quite of the half of adult value: This can
explain the low absorption of lipid soluble substances, essentiallyvitamins A.,E,.D and K.
The bacteria in the colon come later after the birth and depend onthe type of food.
The milk which is used largely generally reduces the absorption ofsome products by adsorption;

Rectal routeRectal route
The absorption is convenient in case of oral intoleranceand overall if the drug is administered in solution, like
enema for the treatment of convulsions with diazepam or
midazolam.
The absorption is not so good after suppositories

The absorption rate is low and hazardous in the newborndue to low blood flow rate in the muscles, to low amount
of muscle masses and low motor function of the baby.

Cutaneous administrationCutaneous administration
The skin absorption is more important in the newborn
than in adults.
This can be explain by the elevated ratio between the skin
area and the weight, and by the elevated hydratation of
the stratum corneum.
But this route is essentially used for topical application
and not for systemic activity (except for pain treatment)
The dosage form must be a administered
on a non injured skin .

Distribution Volume:
The water soluble drugs will be prescribed at high doses (aminoglycosides, theophyllin, aminosides, penicillin, cephalosporin,phnyton, vancomycin, btalactamines ) in prematurenewborn.
The lipid soluble drug (diazepam, Phenobarbital) will beprescribed at lower doses (high peak ,low VD)

ConsequencesConsequences
i.e., in the newborns absorption and elimination arereduced, distribution volume increased. So the time
between 2 doses is large and it is to be noted that highly
protein bounded drug must be discarded.
i.e. in the babies, the metabolism is accelerated,
distribution volume is high. So the single dose must be
more elevated but dosing interval smaller than in adults

General principles.
Drug development programs should usually include the
paediatric patient population when a product is being
developed for a disease or condition in adults and it is
anticipated the product will be used into paediatric
population.

Clinical InvestigationClinical Investigation
The decision to proceed with the Paediatric development program for a medicinalproduct involve consideration of many factors, including :
the prevalence of the condition to be treated in the Paediatric population
the seriousness of the condition to be treated
whether the medicinal product is novel or one of a class of compounds withknown properties
whether there are unique Paediatric indications for the medicinal product
the age range of pediatric patients likely to be treated with the medicinal product
unique Paediatric (developmental) safety concern with the medicinal product,including any nonclinical safety issue
potential need for paediatric formulation development

Of these factors, the most important is the presence of seriousor life-threatening disease for which the medicinal productsrepresent a potentially important advance in therapy.
It should be noted that the most relevant safety data for
paediatric studies ordinarily come from adults humanexposure. Repeated dose toxicity studies, reproduction toxicitystudies and genotoxicity tests would generally be available.
All these studies requires adequate dosage forms: solutions

Clinical Investigation: Timing of studiesClinical Investigation: Timing of studies
. The timing of paediatric studies will depend on the medicinal product,the type of disease being treated, safety considerations, and the
efficacy and safety of alternative treatments.
First case: Medicinal products for disease dominantly or
exclusively affecting paediatric patient.
The entire development program will be conducted in the paediatric
population except for initial safety and tolerability data, which will
usually be obtained in adults. Some products may reasonably be
studied only in the paediatric population even in the initial phase, forexample when studies in adults who yield little useful information or
expose them to inappropriate to risk

Second case. :Medicinal products intended to treatserious or life-threatening disease, occurring in bothadults and paediatric patient, for which there arecurrently no or limited therapeutic options.
If the product represents a potentially important advance in therapy,
there is a need for relatively urgent and early initiation of paediatricstudies.
Third case. :Medicinal products intended to treat otherdisease and conditions.
There is less urgency than in the previous cases and studies wouldusually begin at later phases of clinical development

When a medicinal product is to be used in the paediatric populationfor the same indication as those studied andapproved in adults, the disease process is similar in adults andpaediatric patients, and the outcome of therapy is likely to be
comparable, extrapolation from adult efficacy data may
be appropriate. In such cases, pharmacokinetic studiesin all the age ranges of paediatric patient likely toreceive the medicinal product, together with safetystudies, may provide adequate information for used byallowing selection of paediatric doses that will produce blood levelssimilar to those observed in adult. If this approach is taken, adultspharmacokinetic data should be available to plan the paediatricstudies

When a medicinal product is to be used in younger paediatric patient for the

Insuch cases, pharmacokinetic studies in the relevant age groups of paediatricpatients likely to receive the medicinal product, together with safety studies may besufficient to provide adequate information for paediatric use.
This approach should be insufficient for medicinal product where bloodlevels are known or expected not to correspond with efficacy or wherethere is concern that the concentration-response relationship may differbetween the adult and paediatric population.

Clinical Investigation: Type of studies:Clinical Investigation: Type of studies:
When the comparability of the disease course or outcome of therapyin paediatric patient is expected to be similar to adults, but the
appropriate blood levels are not clear, it may be
possible to use measurements of pharmacodynamic
effect related to clinical effectiveness to confirm theexpectation of effectiveness and to define the dose andconcentration needed to obtain that pharmacodynamic effect.
Thus a PK/PD approach combined with safety and other relevantstudies could avoid the need for clinical efficacy studies.

PharmacokineticsPharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic studies should be performed to support formulationdevelopment and determine pharmacokinetic parameters in
different age group to support dosing recommendations.
Relative bioavailability comparisons of paediatric
formulation with the adults oral formulation typically shouldbe done in adults.
Definitive pharmacokinetic studies for dose selection acrossthe age ranges of paediatric patients in whom the medicinal product is likely
to be used shall be conducted in the paediatric population.

Ethical issues in pediatric studiesEthical issues in pediatric studies
The paediatric population represents a vulnerable subgroup and it isnecessary to protect the rights of the study participants.
The recruitment of study participants should occur in a manner free frominappropriate inducement either to the parent is or the study participant.
As a rule the paediatric subject is legally unable to provide informed
consent.
So they are dependent on their parents to assume responsibility for theirparticipation in the study, who will give their fully informed consent.
Participants ofappropriate intellectual maturity should personally sign
and date either a separately designed written assent form or the writteninformed consent.

Pharmaceutical equivalents or pharmaceutical alternatives whoserate and extent of absorption do not show a significant difference
when administered at the same molar dose of the therapeutic moiety
under similar experimental conditions, either single dose or multiple
dose. (27 CFR 320.1(e)).
Two medicinal products are BE if they are pharmaceutical
equivalents or pharmaceutical alternatives and if their
Bioavailabilities after the administration of the same molar dose are
similarto such degree that their effects, with respect to both efficacy
and safety, will be essentially the same (CPMP/EWP/QWP/1401/98,

Nevirapine was readily absorbed (> 90 %) after oral administration in healthyvolunteers and in adults with HIV-1 infection.
A 3-way crossover study compared the bioavailability from three
production/commercial scale batches with varying dissolution profiles. All three
batches were bioequivalent with respect to systemic exposure (AUC). The
significantly different values for Cmax and tmax were considered not to be clinically
relevant.In studies 1100.1231 and 1100.896 in which the suspension was administered
directly using a syringe, it was demonstrated that the suspension and tablet
formulations were comparably bioavailable with respect to extent of absorption. In
study 1100.1213 the suspension was administered in a dosing cup without rinsing.
The suspension intended for marketing was bioequivalent to the suspension used
during clinical trials but was not bioequivalent to the marketed tablets. This could beattributed to incomplete dosing of the two suspensions since there was about 13 %
of the dose remaining in the cup.

ExampleExample
It has been later determined in a single dose study in 9 patients aged between 9 months
and 14 years administered after an overnight fast (3 patients per dose level equivalent to7.5 mg/m, 30.0 mg/m and 120.0 mg/m).
Based on adult experience, a comparable lead-in period of two weeks was suggested forpaediatric population.A 4 mg/kg dose is proposed for all children regardless the age.
Although no particular study has been performed to find the optimal lead-in dose, thisdose was considered acceptable considering the enzyme induction to achieve initialantiretroviral activity.
The final recommended doses for the different ages are therefore the following:
Patients from 2 months to 8 years, 4 mg/kg once daily for 2 weeks followed by 7 mg/kgbid
Patients from 8 years to 16 years are 4 mg/kg once daily followed by 4-mg/kg bids.

What to do for BIE studies in children??What to do for BIE studies in children??
Use of BCS for API to waive the BIE study Study of the dosage form in vitro whatever the BCS of the API if
there is a reference as the innovator and comparison with
sharpness of the dissolution curves and results. There is a
dissolution device for all the dosage form and a lot of possibility
for media!!
BIE study in adults: the performance of the DDF can be
appreciated if the API has not a special metabolism in child (or
infant!). However for issue of essay (sensitivity )it could be
necessary to administer 2 or more DDF, that may induce someerrors in LADME and bad BIE results !!

The purpose of this study is to test the effects of large food portions on children'seating. Experiment 1 will test the effect of portion size on children's consumptionof sweetened beverages; we hypothesize that serving large beverage portionswill increase the amount of energy children consume from this food. Experiment2 will test the effects of portion size on children's intake of fruits and vegetables(FV) affect intake whether such effects are moderated by children's FVpreferences and; we hypothesize that serving large fruit and vegetable portionswill produce increases in children's intake of these foods, particularly for childrenwho like fruit and vegetables. Experiment 3 will evaluate how food energydensity affects children's response to large portions; we hypothesize that largeportions will have the greatest influence on children's energy consumption when
foods are energy dense. Experiment 4 will begin to address perceptualmechanisms by which large portions affect children's eating.

March 13, 2007 In a group of children randomly assigned to ibuprofen, acetaminophen, or codeine, ibuprofen was the mosteffective for treating the pain of acute musculoskeletal injuries, according to the results of a study reported in the March issue ofPediatrics.
"Our goal was to determine which of 3 analgesics, acetaminophen, ibuprofen, or codeine, given as a single dose, provides the mostefficacious analgesia for children presenting to the emergency department with pain from acute musculoskeletal injuries," write EricClark, MD, from the University of Ottawa in Ontario, Canada, and colleagues. "Although there have been studies comparing the painrelief provided by different oral analgesics in children postoperatively, there are no published randomized, controlled trials examiningthe use of common oral pain medications for children with acute musculoskeletal injury in the ED [emergency department]."
This study enrolled 336 children age 6 to 17 years with pain from a musculoskeletal injury to the extremities, neck, and back thatoccurred in the preceding 48 hours before presentation in the emergency department. These children were randomized to receive asingle oral dose of 15 mg/kg of acetaminophen, 10 mg/kg of ibuprofen, or 1 mg/kg of codeine. Children, parents, and evaluators wereblinded to group assignment, and the main endpoint was change in pain from baseline to 60 minutes after treatment with studymedication, measured with a visual analog scale.
Of 336 patients randomized, 300 were included in the analysis of the primary outcome (100 in the acetaminophen group, 100 in theibuprofen group, and 100 in the codeine group). Age, sex, final diagnosis, previous analgesic given, and baseline pain score weresimilar in the 3 groups.
At 60 minutes, improvement in pain score was significantly greater in the ibuprofen group (mean decrease, 24 mm) than in thecodeine group (mean decrease, 11 mm) and acetaminophen group (mean decrease, 12 mm). More patients in the ibuprofen groupachieved adequate analgesia (visual analog scale, < 30 mm) at 60 minutes than in the other 2 groups.

HIV Pharmacology Workshop: The dangers of breaking up tablets for paediatric dosing
printer friendly versionsendtofriendglossarycommentYasmin Halima, Monday, May 01,2006Further evidence that dividing adult Triomune tablets for use by children may result in under-dosing was presented last week at the HIV Pharmacology Workshop in Lisbon, and the workshopalso heard the first bioequivalence data on a paediatric tablet formulation ofTriomune, calledPedimune.
Triomune (a fixed dose combination of stavudine (d4T), lamuvdine (3TC) and nevirapine) is thecheapest regimen available in much of sub-Saharan Africa, and is commonly prescribed to adults.
Attempts have been made to estimate doses for children by halving and quartering tablets, but it is
unclear if these doses are correct.
A European-African study involving the Radboud University and Nijmegen University in theNetherlands, two African hospitals in Malawi and Zambia respectively and the UK Medical ResearchCouncil (MRC) was carried out. The aim of the study was to investigate whetherTriomune tablets thatare routinely divided for administration, deliver the same active ingredients, particularly in childrenwho are malnourished.
Tablets are difficult to split, the drugs are not equally distributed and there are no formalrecommendations on how to divide them with the distinct possibility of under-dosing.

Bioavailability study results for new paediatric tablets for oral
suspension, and caution against splitting adult doses
Polly Clayden, HIV i-Base
All discussion concerning obstacles to paediatric scale up - both atthis conference and to date - has highlighted the lack of easily
stored, low cost, age appropriate antiretroviral formulations forchildren.
As an interim measure many programmes prescribe divided adultfixed dose combinations (FDCs) but this is not without problems, andcan yield suboptimal levels of nevirapine, particularly in very youngchildren (see below). Obviously FDCs for children will be a welcomedevelopment.
Paediatric FDCs

[1, 2]
Another Indian generic company, Ranbaxy has developed two new paediatric formulations of tabletsfor oral suspension (TFOS) designed to disintegrate quickly into a uniform suspension in smallvolume of liquid media like water.
A poster from Singla and co-workers from Ranbaxy described the formulation development of Triviro-LNS kid (3TC 20mg /nevirapine 35mg/d4T 5mg) and Triviro-LNS kid DS (3TC40mg / nevirapine 70mg/ d4T 10mg) which will provide NIH recommended doses of the drugs for children weighing 9-31kg.[3]
And in an oral presentation Manish Vermer reported findings from the companys bioavailability studyof a single dose of the Triviro-LNS kids DS formulation compared to reference propriety liquidformulations. [4]
The investigators reported that the tablet has: a break line, to enhance accuracy of dosing; apleasant orange flavour and requires no specific measuring device or refrigeration. Time todispersion is 40 seconds in a small amount of water.
The bioavailability study was an open label, single dose crossover study conducted in 36 fasting HIVnegative adult males.
The investigators reported that the geometric mean ratios (% Test/Reference) of log-transformedparameters of AUC, Cmax and 90% confidence intervals were within 80 -125% interval, see Table 1.
They wrote Therefore the two treatments were considered to be similarly bioavailable and theyconcluded Ranbaxys novel paediatric triple ARV TFOS could be used in place of individual liquidformulations.

This is a randomized, double-blind, multi-centered study to compare 6 months of medicaltreatment with digoxin or propranolol in infants with SVT Background: SVT is the mostcommon sustained arrhythmia of infancy. Neither digoxin nor propranolol has beenevaluated for pediatric use in a controlled trial in the context of SVT, yet both medicationsare used frequently.
Specific aims of the study:
To determine whether propranolol and digoxin differ in the:
Incidence of recurrent SVT in infants after 6 months of treatment with propranolol ordigoxin
Time to first recurrence of SVT in infants treated with propranolol or digoxin.
Incidence of adverse outcomes in infants treated with propranolol or digoxin.

although are not usually lethal, both have high morbidity, and high healthcare costs.
Recent studies have demonstrated that asthma and GERD often co-exists, and that this
co-existence is more frequent than just chance. Therefore, studies that characterize
associations between these conditions, and, help in the development of interventions will
positively impact the outcomes of these patients, which are critically needed.Subjects that participate in this study are required to be between the ages of 4-11 years
old. This protocol proposes to enroll 50 children with asthma, on inhaled steroids who have
poor asthma control, defined on the basis of frequent symptoms, excessive beta-agonists
use, or frequent asthma episodes.
The purpose of this research study is to:
Determine, whether children with symptomatic, poorly controlled, asthma assigned totreatment with a PPI( Proton Pump Inhibitor), have fewer asthma episodes than similar
participants assigned to placebo for a similar duration of time
Determine whether children treated with Lansoprazole ( i.e., proton pump inhibitor) : have a
longer time to first exacerbation, have improved lung function, improved asthma symptom
scores, improved quality of life, decreased rescue inhaler use, or other asthma
medications, reduced emergency room/urgent care/ physician office visits that are asthma
related.
Determine whether a subgroup of symptomatic asthmatics, who show a greater benefit
from PPIs, can be identified.

and quarter-doses of nevirapine, lamivudine and stavudine for paediatric useare bioequivalent to their proprietrary liquid formulations in adults, accordingto a study presented to the Sixteenth International AIDS Conference inToronto on August 16th. The two formulations have already been approvedby the Indian government, and have been submitted to the World Health
Organisation (WHO) for inclusion on their pre-qualification list.
Several recent initiatives have begun to address the issue of lack of paediatricformulations in low-income countries, first highlighted two years ago at theFifteenth International AIDS Conference in Bangkok by Mdecins SansFrontires (MSF) director Daniel Berman.
