How the model represents the biology

A two-compartment population PK model representing pediatric atezolizumab exposure with body weight, albumin, tumor burden, and anti-drug-antibody effects on disposition.

How do pediatric covariates alter atezolizumab disposition and exposure?Repeated intravenous atezolizumab infusion enters a central compartment, exchanges reversibly with a peripheral compartment, and undergoes systemic clearance. Body weight and albumin scale central volume; body weight, albumin, tumor burden, and anti-drug-antibody status scale clearance; intercompartmental flow and peripheral volume remain fixed.BIOLOGY OVERVIEWHow do pediatric covariates alter atezolizumab disposition and exposure?Repeated IV infusionAtezolizumab rate to centralamountCentral exposureAtezolizumab concentrationPeripheral compartmentReversible distributionPediatric PKcovariatesWeight, albumin, tumor and ADASystemic clearanceCovariate-scaled central lossCumulative exposureCentral concentration integralPRIMARY READOUTSCentral and peripheral atezolizumabCentral and peripheral ate…Cumulative exposureCumulative exposureCovariate-adjusted clearanceCovariate-adjusted clearan…Covariate-adjusted central volumeCovariate-adjusted central…

Model scope: PD-L1 binding or occupancy, immune activation, tumor response, toxicity, and safety outcomes are not represented. This release is a covariate-scaled two-compartment population-PK model.

Modeled relationships (6)
  • Repeated IV infusion → Central exposure: infusion rate (flow)
  • Central exposure ↔ Peripheral compartment: distribution (reversible exchange)
  • Pediatric PK covariates → Central exposure: weight + albumin scale V1 (modulation)
  • Pediatric PK covariates → Systemic clearance: scales CL (modulation)
  • Central exposure → Systemic clearance: systemic CL (loss)
  • Central exposure → Cumulative exposure: integrates C (production)

Modeled relationships: Repeated IV infusion to Central exposure: infusion rate (flow); Central exposure reversibly exchanges with Peripheral compartment: distribution (reversible exchange); Pediatric PK covariates to Central exposure: weight + albumin scale V1 (modulation); Pediatric PK covariates to Systemic clearance: scales CL (modulation); Central exposure to Systemic clearance: systemic CL (loss); Central exposure to Cumulative exposure: integrates C (production).

Primary readouts: Central and peripheral atezolizumab; Cumulative exposure; Covariate-adjusted clearance; Covariate-adjusted central volume.
