Abstract:
Dermal drug delivery has emerged as an alternative to conventional routes of drug administration owing to its non-invasive nature and improved patient compliance. Dermal physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling integrates skin absorption, formulation characteristics, and systemic kinetics. This strategy assists in dermal drug product development and regulatory decision-making within the model-informed drug development (MIDD) framework while reducing expensive clinical trials. However, complex interactions between drug properties, skin biology, or formulation parameters make its development scientifically challenging. This review provides an overview of modeling approaches, case studies, regulatory landscape, challenges, and future perspectives with respect to dermal PBPK modeling and simulation.
