 BA or BE study simulation [PK / PD]

Hi everyone,

I would like your input on this matter. It might sound a bit strange but I was just curious...

If I only have PK parameter data from a previous study --> Meaning only AUCs and Cmax from all subjects, is it possible for me to run a BE study simulation trial?

What I have is the results from a 2-way crossover study (T vs R). I have the randomization, PK data, but no concentration data. I want to run a 3-way partial replicate simulation trial on the data (T and 2R) because the intra-subject CVs are way above 30%.

I am thinking of taking the mean and SDs from each treatment and generate random samples from a log-normal distribution since the Pk parameters are log- normal distributed.

Thanks

Bad luck. The CVintra from a 2×2 cross-over is actually a pooled value derived from σWR and σWT. You would have to assume that σWR = σWT which is rarely the case. Since pharmaceutical technology improved quite often σWR > σWT. That’s the reason why a ‘good’ test is penalized by a ‘bad’ reference in 2×2 cross-overs – inflating the CI.
