Clinical Pharmacy Education Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab moves between clinical practice and research to find ways of using medicines suited to each individual patient.
AboutAbout the lab
Solving real clinical problems with pharmaceutical science.
Precision medicine, which prevents and treats disease by taking into account individual differences in genetic information, living environment, and lifestyle, is attracting growing attention.
The Clinical Pharmacy Education lab conducts two kinds of research: building a scientific foundation for solving problems found in actual drug therapy, and developing new drug therapies from the results of basic research. Its aim is to develop personalized treatment that is optimal for each patient.
The lab conducts research together with the Department of Pharmacy at Kyoto University Hospital (Medical Pharmaceutics field).
Key terms
- Pharmacometrics
- Research that describes drug blood concentrations and effects with mathematical models in order to determine the optimal way to use a drug
- Genetic polymorphism
- Small differences in gene sequences between individuals, which underlie differences in how well drugs work
- Immunosuppressant
- A drug that weakens immune activity to suppress rejection of a transplanted organ
- Inhaled drug
- A drug that is inhaled through the mouth and delivered directly to the lungs and airways
ResearchResearch themes
The lab uses mathematical models to explain individual differences in drug efficacy and side effects, and also studies methods for evaluating inhaled drugs.
*Illustrative imagePharmacometrics for Individualized Dosing
The lab focuses on pharmacometrics research, which uses mathematical models to describe how genetic polymorphisms affect drug efficacy and side effects. The immunosuppressant tacrolimus shows large individual differences, and the lab is developing individualized immunosuppressive therapy.
*Illustrative imageA New Method for Evaluating Inhaled Drugs
The effect of an inhaled drug varies greatly depending on how it is used, but there is currently no way to measure the drug that reaches the lungs without harming the body. By combining pharmaceutical formulation-based evaluation with patients' clinical data, the lab is developing a new method for evaluating inhaled drugs.
