Description:
Pharmacometric analyses of time series viral load data may detect drug effects with greater power than approaches using single time points. Because SARS‐CoV‐2 viral load rapidly rises and then falls, viral dynamic models have been used. We compared different modelling approaches when analysing Phase II‐type viral dynamic data. Using two SARS‐CoV‐2 datasets of viral load starting within 7 days of symptoms, we fitted the slope‐intercept exponential decay (SI), reduced target cell limited (rTCL), target cell limited (TCL) and TCL with eclipse phase (TCLE) models using nlmixr. Model performance was assessed via Bayesian information criterion (BIC), visual predictive checks (VPCs), goodness‐of‐fit plots, and parameter precision. The most complex (TCLE) model had the highest BIC for both datasets. The estimated viral decline rate was similar for all models except the TCL model for dataset A with a higher rate (median [range] day−1: dataset A; 0.63 [0.56–1.84]; dataset B: 0.81 [0.74–0.85]). Our findings suggest simple models should be considered during pharmacodynamic model development.
