Artificial Intelligence–Integrated Pharmacokinetic Modelling for Personalised Dose Prediction: A Data-Driven Approach

Abstract

Variability in drug response among individuals continues to be a significant obstacle in clinical pharmacotherapy. Traditional pharmacokinetic (PK) models, although informative in terms of mechanisms, frequently do not adequately represent intricate nonlinear relationships between individual patient variables and drug exposure. This research introduces a data-driven framework that combines artificial intelligence (AI) with pharmacokinetic modelling to facilitate personalised dose forecasting. A hybrid approach integrating machine learning techniques with physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) concepts was created, utilising diverse clinical datasets. The suggested system showed enhanced predictive precision (R² = 0.93) and lowered dosing inaccuracies in comparison to conventional models. The results affirm that AI-enhanced PK modelling serves as an effective method for precise dosing and enhanced therapeutic results.

Introduction

Variability among individuals in drug response continues to be one of the most enduring obstacles in contemporary therapy. Even with the use of standardised dosing schedules, patients often show substantial variability in drug exposure, treatment effectiveness, and side effect profiles. These differences emerge from a complicated interaction of physiological, genetic, environmental, and pathological elements that affect drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. As a result, the traditional "one-size-fits-all" model is gradually acknowledged as insufficient for attaining the best clinical results. Pharmacokinetic modelling has historically been fundamental for comprehending drug distribution in the body. Traditional methods, such as compartmental and non-compartmental models, provide a mathematical framework for illustrating concentration–time relationships and estimating key parameters, including clearance, volume of distribution, and half-life. Although these models are useful for predictions at the population level, they depend on simplifying assumptions like linearity and homogeneity, constraining their capacity to reflect real-world variability. Additionally, traditional models frequently include only a small set of covariates, limiting their usefulness in diverse patient groups. Alongside enhancing clinical results, pharmacokinetic modelling integrated with AI could improve drug development processes. These models can assist in dose selection during early-phase clinical trials and lower the chances of late-stage failures by facilitating more precise simulation of drug behaviour across varied populations. Moreover, the combination of AI with real-world data sources enables ongoing model enhancement, permitting adaptive dosing approaches in clinical settings. Nonetheless, various obstacles need to be resolved before broad clinical application can be realised. These encompass concerns regarding data quality and standardisation, model clarity and comprehensibility, as well as the necessity for strong validation across varied patient groups. Regulatory factors are essential, as implementing AI-driven tools in healthcare necessitates well-defined guidelines to guarantee safety, dependability, and ethical applications.In this context, the current research presents a complete AI-based pharmacokinetic modelling framework for individualised dose forecasting. The research seeks to create a strong, data-informed system that can precisely forecast drug exposure for individuals by integrating machine learning algorithms with models grounded in physiological principles. The particular goals encompass: (i) creating a hybrid AI–PBPK model that integrates multi-dimensional patient information, (ii) assessing model efficacy through standard statistical measures, and (iii) examining its usefulness in enhancing dosing protocols.

Overview of Data Acquisition Strategy

 A multi-source data integration approach was espoused to construct a comprehensive dataset for model development. The dataset was designed to capture inter-individual variability in pharmacokinetics by combining structured clinical data, real- world case records, and publicly available pharmacological databases.
