💻 Pharmacometrics Modeling Language (PML)

This is a series of webinars that were hosted by Certara to teach people to become more familiar with PML coding of PK and PK/PD models.  It is a series…

PML School Introduction

A 3-compartment model with nonlinear clearance.

Lesson 1: Nonlinear Clearance

Simultaneous fitting of parent and metabolite where the metabolite clearance follows Michaelis-Menten kinetics.

Lesson 2: Metabolite Kinetics

A two compartment model fitted to pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data in a sequential manner using concentration- and response-time data after multiple oral doses.

Lesson 3: Two-Compartment Repeated Dosing

A model with multiple absorption routes was constructed using the Graphical Model Editor.

Lesson 4: Multiple Absorption Routes

A one-compartment model with IV and PO dosing, and collection of both plasma and urine data.

Lesson 5: Simultaneous Fitting of Plasma and Urine Data

A textual model with target-mediated drug disposition

Lesson 6: Target-Mediated Drug Disposition

A 2-compartment model with recirculation via bile and gut.

Lesson 7: Enterohepatic Recirculation

Two models built, one with 1st-order input, and a second with zero-order input.  The model that fit the data better was identified

Lesson 8: One-Compartment 1st and 0-Order Input

A 2-compartment model fitted to data from mouse, rat, dog and human, Creating Dedrick plots in Phoenix.

Lesson 9: Allometric Scaling

A turnover model of an endogenous compound with saturating elimination, and a highly variable multiple dosing scheme. Results compared with a simple linear elimination model.

Lesson 10: Turnover III - Nonlinear Disposition

Link (Effect Compartment) model, Turnover (Indirect) model and receptor binding model are created and compared.

Lesson 11: Analysis and Comparison of Link, Turnover and Receptor Binding Model

Gompertz, Hill, Logistic, Morgan-Mercer-Flodin, Richards, and Weibull models were created and compared

Lesson 12: Sigmoidal Concentration-Response Models

Gompertz, Jumbe, and Simeoni models are constructed and compared.

Lesson 13: Modeling Tumor Growth/Kill

One-compartment PK model (frozen parameters) with turnover model that fits the PD data

Lesson 14: Modeling Enzyme Inhibition by Means of Turnover

Two PK/PD models are compared: an effect compartment model, and a model that uses the PML delay command.  The process of going from a PK model to a PK/PD model is also…

Lesson 15: Effect Compartment III - IV Infusion

A turnover (Indirect) model, a turnover model with a delay, and two different precursor-pool models.

Lesson 16: Warfarin IV Bolus Turnover Model

Turnover model 4 (stimulation of loss) with frozen PK. PK data are simulated using previously-determined parameters, so we can see the hysteresis loop.

Lesson 17: Turnover Model 4 - IV Infusion

One-compartment PK model with turnover PD model (inhibition of the build-up of response). PK is frozen. 

Lesson 18: Turnover Models with Repeated Dosing

A model that has only Effect and Time data (no PK data).  First-order PK is assumed.  The PD model is a turnover model, with linear stimulation of loss.

Lesson 19: Dose-Response-Time Analysis

A PK/PD model.  The PK is described by a 1-compartment IV bolus model with nonlinear elimination.  The PD is delayed by three transit compartments and a feedback loop.

Lesson 20: Transduction Modeling

Series of Free Webinars for how to create PK/PD models using Pharmacometric Modeling Language

Webinar 9: PK/PD 1 Compartment-IV Infusion - Emax with Baseline, Shape and Effect

Probabilistic Model: A binary response versus measured concentrations, e.g. dose.

Webinar 10: Comparisons PD Categorical Response Analysis

Survival model (probablilistic) using the Laplacian engine

{appName} in 60 seconds

This prototype demo is aware that you are reading “{title}”. It can point you back to the current article, but a production article-aware Fin contract is still follow-up work.

Prototype article-aware answer

Because you already asked about invitations, this prototype demo can add the follow-up: use the role selector before sending each invite to limit access to the teammate responsibilities.

Prototype role-limiting follow-up

This prototype demo suggests starting with your workspace profile, inviting the team members who need access, and then connecting the integrations you use.

Prototype getting-started answer

In this prototype demo, integrations are configured from workspace settings. Choose the integration, connect the account, and review the enabled permissions.

Prototype integrations answer

In this prototype demo, invite teammates from workspace settings, then choose the access each teammate needs before sending the invitation.

Prototype invite-team answer

This prototype demo does not have a scripted answer for that question yet. Try asking how to invite your team or open a source article. No production Fin API was called.

Prototype answer unavailable

I’ve got this page open. Ask me anything about it and I’ll answer from the docs.
