Thus, determining the amount of a drug transferred into breast milk is critical for risk–benefit analysis of breastfeeding. Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), an efflux transporter which usually protects the body from environmental and dietary toxins, was reported to be highly expressed in lactating mammary glands. In this study, we developed a mechanistic lactation physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling approach incorporating BCRP mediated transport kinetics to simulate the concentration–time profiles of five BCRP drug substrates (acyclovir, bupropion, cimetidine, ciprofloxacin, and nitrofurantoin) in nursing women’s plasma and milk. Due to the lack of certain physiological parameters and scaling factors in nursing women, we combine the bottom up and top down PBPK modeling approaches together with literature reported data to optimize and determine a set of parameters that are applicable for all five drugs. The predictive performance of the PBPK models was assessed by comparing predicted pharmacokinetic profiles and the milk-to-plasma (M/P) ratio with clinically reported data. The predicted M/P ratios for acyclovir, bupropion, cimetidine, ciprofloxacin, and nitrofurantoin were 2.48, 3.70, 3.55, 1.21, and 5.78, which were all within 1.5-fold of the observed values.

The available information relating to the safety of most medications is limited and may vary. More precise information is needed regarding the safety to the newborn or infants of the medications taken by the mother during breastfeeding. Physiologically based Pharmacokinetic Model (PBPK) approaches can be utilized to predict the drug exposure in the milk of breastfeeding women and can act as a supporting tool in the risk assessment of feeding infants. This study aims to assess the predictive performance of an integrated ‘log transformed phase-distribution’ lactation model within a PBPK platform. The model utilizes the physicochemical properties of four basic drugs, namely tramadol, venlafaxine, fluoxetine, and paroxetine, and analyses the milk compositions to predict the milk-to-plasma (M/P) ratio. The M/P prediction model was incorporated within the Simcyp Simulator V20 to predict the milk exposure and to estimate the likely infant dose for these drugs. The PBPK models adequately predicted the maternal plasma exposure, M/P ratio, and the infant daily dose to within two-fold of the clinically observed values for all four compounds. Integration of the lactation model within PBPK models facilitates the prediction of drug exposure in breast milk.

For this purpose, HepaRG cells, initially loaded with the bile acid taurocholate (TC), were reincubated in TC-free transport assay medium, in the presence or absence of calcium or drugs, before analysis of TC retention. This method allowed us to objectivize and quantitatively measure biliary and sinusoidal efflux of TC from HepaRG cells, through distinguishing cellular and canalicular compartments. In particular, time-course analysis of the TC-free reincubation period of HepaRG cells, that is, the efflux period, indicated that a 20 min-efflux period allowed reaching biliary and sinusoidal excretion indexes for TC around 80% and 60%, respectively. Addition of the prototypical cholestatic drugs bosentan, cyclosporin A, glibenclamide, or troglitazone during the TC-free efflux phase period was demonstrated to markedly inhibit canalicular and sinusoidal secretion of TC, whereas, by contrast, incubation with the noncholestatic compounds salicylic acid or flumazenil was without effect.
