Population pharmacokinetic modelling of intravenous immunoglobulin in patients with predominantly antibody deficiencies

摘要

Aims: There is considerable interpatient variability in the pharmacokinetics (PK) of intravenous immunoglobulin G (IVIG), causing difficulty in optimizing individual dosage regimen. This study aims to estimate the population PK parameters of IVIG and to investigate the impact of genetic polymorphism of the FcRn gene and clinical variability on the PK of IVIG in patients with predominantly antibody deficiencies.
