    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacokinetics
    • Mathematical Statistics
    • Drug Metabolism

    Background:

    • Mean residence time (MRT) is crucial for understanding drug disposition.
    • Previous methods for determining MRT have faced statistical criticisms.
    • A rigorous statistical definition of MRT is needed for accurate pharmacokinetic modeling.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To deduce the strict statistical definition of mean residence time.
    • To establish the validity of concentration-time curves as estimators of residence time distributions.
    • To address and refute criticisms regarding MRT determination.

    Main Methods:

    • Deductive reasoning based on mathematical statistics.
    • Analysis of area-normalized concentration-time curves.

  • Statistical interpretation of pharmacokinetic systems.

    • Main Results:

    • The area-normalized concentration-time curve estimates the probability density function for residence times.
    • Provided the area under the curve is proportional to total drug elimination.
    • Criticisms concerning MRT determination were refuted.

    Conclusions:

    • The statistical definition of mean residence time is established.
    • Concentration-time profiles provide valid estimates of drug residence time distributions.
    • Pharmacokinetic system linearity is defined through a statistical lens.
