Healthy-adult antibody exposure and complement suppression
Explore two-compartment serum antibody exposure after a fixed intravenous infusion and an empirical concentration-dependent terminal complement activity readout. This independent healthy-adult fit uses body weight for disposition and measured baseline complement activity for the half-inhibitory concentration.

Lower adult body-weight context
How does lower adult body weight change exposure and complement suppression after a fixed infusion? Fixed-effect healthy-adult exploration; no simulated population interval.
Biology
Explore two-compartment serum antibody exposure after a fixed intravenous infusion and an empirical concentration-dependent terminal complement activity readout. This independent healthy-adult fit uses body weight for disposition and measured baseline complement activity for the half-inhibitory concentration.
States & equation dependencies
Assumptions & evidence
Assumptions & limitations
- Deterministic healthy-adult fixed effects; this independent fit is distinct from the pooled healthy/patient model.
- The measured baseline complement covariate adjusts IC50; it does not set the simulated zero-drug activity. Fitted E0 supplies that intercept.
- The complement readout is an empirical serum assay percentage, not molecular C5 occupancy, a probability or an efficacy/safety endpoint.
- Body weight changes clearance and central volume under a fixed 300 mg dose; these scenarios are not mg/kg regimens.
- Cumulative exposure integrates from the chosen simulation start; it is not automatically an interval AUCtau.
- Original individuals, between-subject variability, residual sampling, pcVPC and bootstrap are not reproduced. No patient LDH model or clinical dose recommendation applies.
- Synthetic baseline-covariate and zero-dose controls are private diagnostics, not observed subjects or paper figure reproduction.
