Physiologically based pharmacokinetic modelling of treprostinil after intravenous injection and extended-release oral tablet administration in healthy volunteers: An extrapolation to other patient populations including patients with hepatic impairment.

Predicted absorption, distribution, and metabolic enzyme kinetics gave an insight into the disposition of treprostinil in humans. Extrapolation of the established model to patient populations with hepatic impairment successfully documented the model reliability. The developed model has the potential to be used in the PK predictions in other special patient populations with different demographic, physiological and pathological characteristics.
