Binding proteins, population and individual variability, assay techniques and biases
Plasma protein binding measurements are an essential part of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) and ADME studies, as it influences efficacy, dosing, clearance, half-life and drug interactions.
While the methods to assess plasma binding of drugs have been largely standardized, evidence from clinical studies suggests that standard approaches fail to answer several critical issues.
