Assessment of Maternal and Fetal Dolutegravir Exposure by IntegratingEx VivoPlacental Perfusion Data and Physiologically‐Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling

Antiretroviral therapy during pregnancy reduces the risk of vertical HIV‐1 transmission. However, drug dosing is challenging as pharmacokinetics (PK) may be altered during pregnancy. We combined a pregnancy physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling approach with data on placental drug transfer to simulate maternal and fetal exposure to dolutegravir (DTG). First, a PBPK model for DTG exposure in healthy volunteers was established...
