Understanding how drugs affect mothers and children
Pharmacometrics and Clinical Trial Design Core
['FUNDING_P30'] · INDIANA UNIVERSITY INDIANAPOLIS · NIH-10892087
This study is working to make medications safer and more effective for moms and kids by creating better ways to predict how these drugs work in their bodies, so we can fill in the gaps in our knowledge and improve treatment guidelines.

What this research studies
This research focuses on improving drug therapy for mothers and children by developing advanced models that predict how drugs behave in these populations. It combines expertise in pharmacometrics and clinical trial design to analyze data from various studies, including in vitro and clinical trials. The goal is to create guidelines that ensure high-quality data and to identify knowledge gaps in drug responses during pregnancy and childhood. By integrating data from multiple sources, the research aims to enhance our understanding of how individual differences affect drug efficacy and safety.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this research include pregnant women, lactating mothers, and children up to 21 years old who may require medication.
Not a fit: Patients who are not pregnant, lactating, or within the pediatric age range may not benefit from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could lead to safer and more effective drug therapies for mothers and children.
How similar studies have performed: Previous research has shown success in using pharmacometric models to improve drug therapies in pediatric populations, indicating a promising approach.
