Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pharmacometrics modeling plays a leading role in the journey towards personalized therapy by quantitatively predicting the correlations of the various factors influencing changes in drug behavior in in vivo systems. The demand for physiologically based pharmacokinetic–pharmacodynamic modeling techniques, including those for the pharmacokinetic–pharmacodynamic modeling of whole populations, is increasing in the pharmaceutical and clinical industries, with the ultimate aim of improving effects through optimal drug therapy. Pharmacometrics modeling is clearly an important tool in drug development and for the development of effective clinical applications.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to collect approaches to individualized drug therapy based on population pharmacometrics. This issue will not be limited to population modeling, but will also include work on the prediction of drug behavior through mathematical modeling and model simulations. In addition, extended application studies on model-based clinical dosing systems and regimens are also welcome. This Special Issue is an opportunity to move one step closer to precision medicine based on quantitative modeling techniques.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Pharmaceutics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2900 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
