Here we illustrate how the ordinary differential equations (ODEs) model and the approach of varying one covariate at a time, can be expanded.
We link the same two-compartment PK model (from the PK Example vignette) to an indirect response pharmacodynamic (PD) model where the drug concentrations inhibit the rate constant of input (Kin).
The covariates model included several covariates effects on Clearance, Volume and Kin. The baseline PD value is controlled by the ratio of Kin/Kout.
In this vignette we do not go into a lot of details, as we assume that the user has read and run the code of the Introduction to coveffectsplot and PK Example vignettes and that the reader is familiar with PK/PD concepts.
At the end we show how we can add a table under a multiple parameters forest plot.

Simulate Reference Subjects with BSV

We simulate at reference covariate values with between subject variability (BSV) and then we show a plot of the PK and PD profiles of five random subjects.

idata <- data.table(ID=1:nbsvsubjects, WT=85, SEX=0, ALB=45, AGE=40, HEALTHY = 0)
ev1 <- ev(time = 0, amt = 100, cmt = 1, ii = 24, addl = 20)

Compute PD Parameters and Summarize BSV

Here we compute the PD baseline (where we start), nadir response (minimum response achieved) and the delta (difference) between the baseline and nadir. We then summarize and report the BSV around these parameters as ranges of 50 and 90% of patients. We then show a plot of the first 10 replicates as an example of the simulated PD profiles. Since the code is similar to the PK Example vignette it is not shown.

derive.exposure <- function(time, PDRESP) {
  x <- c(
    nadir = min(PDRESP, na.rm = TRUE),
    baselinepd = PDRESP[1L],
    deltapd = PDRESP[1L]-min(PDRESP, na.rm = TRUE)
  )
  data.table(paramname=names(x), paramvalue=x)
}

                        by=.(ID, WT, SEX, ALB, AGE, HEALTHY)]
