Evaluation of Various Approaches to Estimate Transplacental Clearance of Vancomycin for Predicting Fetal Concentrations using a Maternal-Fetal Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Model.

Our study showcased that combination of ex vivo human placenta perfusion experiments and m-f PBPK model has the capability to predict fetal exposure for the large molecular weight drug vancomycin, whereas other in silico approaches failed to achieve the same level of accuracy.
