What is the Role of Pharmacokinetics in Clinical Trials?
Pharmacokinetics (PK) involves the study of drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) in the body. PK studies are vital in clinical trials to understand the drug's behavior, optimize dosing regimens, and predict potential interactions. Bioanalytical techniques are used to measure drug concentrations in various biological matrices, providing data for PK modeling.
