🚀 We are happy to share that our review has been published!
📄 “A systematic review on clinical pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of antiangiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) with high TDM scores”
in Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy
Our work evaluates PK/PD and TDM potential of:
Sunitinib, Pazopanib, Sorafenib, Axitinib, Cabozantinib
🔬 Key points:
• Dose-dependent ↑ exposure (AUC, Cmax)
• High variability (especially pediatrics)
• Food & DDIs significantly impact PK
• Strong case for TDM-guided dosing
🎯 Impact: Advancing precision dosing in oncology
