Skills and Insights You'll Gain  Session 1: Getting Started with GastroPlus: Building a Solution PBPK Model In this first session, you will learn how to think like an advanced modeler developing a baseline PBPK model for an oral solution drug product. Through a step-by-step case study, you will practice selecting the appropriate disposition compartmental model to describe a drug’s pharmacokinetics following intravenous administration, then extend it to characterize oral absorption of a solution formulation. By the end, you will be able to confidently build a fully validated PBPK model; a prerequisite for PBBM-PBPK model development.  Session 2: From Solubility to Dissolution: Fundamentals for Oral Drug Absorption Modeling  GastroPlus has an intuitive interface, but behind all solubility, dissolution, and precipitation settings are mechanistic models that directly shape your predictions. In this session, you'll uncover how these processes are represented, how key parameters and assumptions influence absorption outcomes, and why understanding them is critical for building credible PBPK models describing oral absorption of oral drug products. By the end, you'll be able to confidently adjust solubility, dissolution and precipitation inputs, and generate more reliable insights for biopharmaceutics decision-making.  Session 3: PBBM-PBPK model for Immediate Release Drug Products  In this session, you will build on the validated baseline PBPK framework developed in Session 1 and the key solubility, dissolution, and precipitation concepts introduced in Session 2 to create robust PBBM-PBPK models for immediate-release drug products informed by in vitro data. By the end, you will be able to translate biopharmaceutic insights into predictive simulations, support formulation decisions through virtual bioequivalence assessments, and confidently defend your modeling strategy in regulatory discussions.  Session 4: PBBM-Based IVIVC for Controlled Release Drug Products In this session, you will extend the principles learned in earlier sessions to the development of PBBM-PBPK models for controlled-release drug products, where formulation performance plays a central role in defining clinical exposure. You will be introduced to the concept of In Vitro–In Vivo Correlation (IVIVC) and learn how to establish and validate a mechanistic IVIVC using GastroPlus. By the end, you will be able to build a PBBM-PBPK model capable of evaluating formulation changes for controlled-release drug products through virtual bioequivalence simulations and supporting regulatory strategies with mechanistic, science-based evidence.  Session 5: Assessing Food Effects on PK: A PBPK Modeling Approach To conclude this Spring School, we will shift our focus to the impact of gastrointestinal physiology on drug absorption, with particular emphasis on food effects. You will explore the key physiological changes associated with food intake, such as alterations in gastric emptying, pH, bile salts, and fluid volumes, and understand how they influence drug performance in vivo. By the end, you will be able to use a PBPK model to anticipate food-related risks and support the design of formulations that minimize or avoid clinically significant food effects.  Read more
