Prediction of H3 receptor occupancy diurnal fluctuations using population modeling and simulation with focus on guiding dose selection in a Phase IIa study.
Trial report in Pharmaceutical research, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purpose4-[(1S,2S)-2-(4-cyclobutylpiperazine-1-carbonyl)cyclopropyl]benzamide (“AZ1”) is a histamine 3 (H3) autoreceptor in vivo antagonist. Sleep disturbance is a well-known class-effect for H3 antagonists and associated with high H3 receptor occupancy (RO) at night. The objective of the present work was to investigate if it was possible to obtain large diurnal fluctuations in RO for AZ1 and to suggest suitable doses for a Phase IIa study.
methodsFour Phase I studies were pooled and used to build a population pharmacokinetic model in NONMEM. Based on simulations of the PK model and the reported Ki-value for H3 RO from a human PET-study, RO vs. time profiles were simulated.
resultsThe model well described the AZ1 pharmacokinetics. Simulations predicting plasma concentration and RO vs. time profiles for several doses were explored and doses with a wide range of fluctuation in RO over the dosing interval could be identified.
conclusionsBy using population modeling and simulations of PK data and the Ki-value from a human PET study, predictions of RO vs. time for unstudied doses of AZ1 was made. Using this methodology it was possible to suggest doses with expected large diurnal fluctuations in RO.
