Utility of a physiologically–based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling approach to quantitatively predict a complex drug–drug–disease interaction scenario for rivaroxaban during the drug review process: implications for clinical practice

Abstract

These simulations suggest that a drug-drug-disease interaction is possible, which may significantly increase rivaroxaban exposure and increase bleeding risk. These simulations render more mechanistic insights as to the possible outcomes and allow one to reach a decision to add cautionary language to the approved product labeling for rivaroxaban.
