# Population

The model was developed at Inje University Pusan Paik Hospital from 17 Korean
adults with arthritis -- 7 rheumatoid arthritis and 10 osteoarthritis, 8 male
and 9 female -- with mean age 44.2 years (SD 13.3, range 22-63) and mean body
weight 62.2 kg (SD 8.8, range 46-75) (Park 2001 Table 1). All subjects had
normal blood chemistry and urinalysis screens at enrolment. Each subject
received 100 mg of oral ketoprofen twice daily for at least four days to reach
steady state; concomitant antacid was permitted with a >= 2 h spacing from
ketoprofen for the six subjects who developed gastrointestinal complaints.
On the study day, 12 of the 17 subjects had full plasma sampling at 0
(pre-dose), 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 12 h post-dose; all 17 contributed
1-4 synovial fluid samples drawn at varied times across the dosing interval
through an indwelling angiocatheter in the joint cavity, with at least 3 days
between consecutive synovial draws to avoid drug-residue carryover.

The same information is available programmatically via
`readModelDb("Park_2001_ketoprofen")$population`.

The paper also reports four derived disposition quantities for the synovial
fluid (Park 2001 Table 3): peak lag time = 3.1 h, peak synovial:plasma
concentration ratio = 0.77, terminal half-life in synovial fluid = 3.7 h, and
CV(keo) = 24.5%. These derive directly from `keo` and the plasma PK
parameters; they are reproduced by the simulation below rather than encoded
as independent parameters.

# Virtual cohort

Individual-level data from the 17-patient cohort are not publicly available.
The virtual cohort below approximates the demographic spread reported in
Park 2001 Table 1: age and sex are not model covariates and are carried as
labels only; body weight is sampled from a normal distribution truncated to
the paper's reported range. Each subject receives 100 mg of ketoprofen
twice daily for 5 days (10 doses) to reach the steady-state condition
described in the paper.

```{r cohort}
set.seed(20010101)
n_subj <- 200L

cohort <- tibble(
  id        = seq_len(n_subj),
  WT        = pmin(pmax(rnorm(n_subj, mean = 62.2, sd = 8.8), 46), 75),
  treatment = factor("100 mg PO BID")
)
```

# Simulation

The dosing schedule is `ii = 12, addl = 9` (10 doses total over 4.5 days)
into the `depot` compartment. Observations are taken densely between
96 h and 108 h (the last full dosing interval at steady state) so the
simulated profile is directly comparable with Park 2001 Figures 2-4. Both
plasma (`Cc`) and synovial fluid (`Csf`) concentrations are observed.

```{r events}
sim_hours    <- 108
ss_start     <- 96      # last dose at hour 96 (= 8th dose; doses indexed 0..9)
ss_end       <- 108

## Figure 4: Typical-value plasma and synovial fluid time courses

Park 2001 Figure 4 simulates the steady-state plasma and synovial-fluid
profiles for a typical subject using the population mean parameters
(ka = 0.80 1/h, Vd/F = 0.39 L/kg, keo = 0.16 1/h). The paper reports peak
plasma concentration of 1.88 ug/mL at ~1.5 h post-dose, peak synovial
concentration of 1.44 ug/mL at ~4.6 h, peak synovial:plasma ratio of 0.766,
and a 3.1 h time lag between the two peaks. The block below reproduces
that simulation by zeroing the random effects and plotting one dosing
interval at steady state.

# PKNCA validation

PKNCA is run on the simulated plasma profile across the last 12 h dosing
interval at steady state (steady-state recipe of `pknca-recipes.md`).
Reported NCA values are compared against Park 2001 Table 2.

    )

)
```

The simulated median plasma Cmax and AUC are expected to fall below the
arithmetic-mean values in Park 2001 Table 2 because Table 2 reports the
arithmetic mean of individual estimates from WinNONLIN fits (which embed
between-subject distribution skew), whereas the simulation reports the
median of the simulated cohort. The published Cmax of 4.6 +/- 3.2 ug/mL is
also the observed peak across all sampling times (Park 2001 Figure 2),
while the simulated Cmax is computed from the typical-value model: the
two are not directly comparable in magnitude, but agreement in Tmax and
the general shape of the dosing-interval profile validates the structural
model.

# Assumptions and deviations

- **Plasma residual error not reported in Park 2001.** The paper estimated
  plasma PK individually with WinNONLIN (no population residual-error
  term) and only used NONMEM for the synovial-fluid effect-compartment fit
  (Park 2001 Methods, "Pharmacokinetic analysis" paragraph; Eq. 3 applies
  to synovial fluid only). The library model assigns `propSd = 0.15` as a
  plausible plasma residual error so the popPK simulation produces
  reasonable plasma noise; this value is an assumption, not a paper-derived
  estimate. Users who require strictly paper-derived behaviour can zero
  the plasma residual via `nlmixr2est::nlmixr2`.
- **Internal-consistency of Table 2 means.** Park 2001 Table 2 reports
  per-kg apparent quantities as arithmetic mean +/- SD across the 12
  patients with full plasma sampling. The reported mean CL/F (0.20
  L/kg/h), mean Vd/F (0.39 L/kg), and mean kel (0.55 1/h) are not
  perfectly internally consistent (mean(kel) * mean(Vd/F) = 0.215 L/kg/h
  vs reported mean(CL/F) = 0.20 L/kg/h). The library uses the reported
  mean(CL/F) and mean(Vd/F) directly (CL = 12.44 L/h, Vc = 24.26 L);
  derived kel = 0.513 1/h is therefore slightly lower than the paper's
  mean kel of 0.55 1/h. This 7% discrepancy reflects the
  arithmetic-mean-of-individual-fits vs ratio-of-means difference and is
  not a translation error.
- **Proportional (1+eta) IIV converted to log-normal.** Park 2001 Eq. 2
  states the variability model for keo as `keo_j = keo_bar * (1 + eta_j)`
  with eta ~ N(0, omega^2). The library uses the standard log-normal IIV
  convention `keo = exp(lkeo + etalkeo)` with omega^2 = log(1 + CV^2). For
  the reported CV(keo) = 24.5%, the two parameterisations agree to within
  ~1% on the lognormal scale. The same conversion is applied to ka, CL,
  and Vc using the implied CVs from Table 2 SD/mean.
- **Body weight as a label only.** Park 2001 did not include body weight
  as a model covariate. The structural parameters in the model file are
  reported as absolute (L, L/h, 1/h) using the mean body weight of 62.2
  kg as a fixed reference scaling factor; subjects in the virtual cohort
  carry a `WT` column for demographic plausibility but the model
  equations do not depend on it.
- **No covariates encoded.** Park 2001 reports patient demographics (age,
  weight, RA vs OA diagnosis, sex, protein, albumin, BUN, creatinine) but
  did not estimate covariate effects. The library model has no
  `covariateData` entries and no `e_*_*` covariate-effect parameters.
- **k1e0 = keo at steady state.** Park 2001 applies the Holford-Sheiner
  effect-compartment assumption that the synovial fluid carries negligible
  drug mass relative to plasma so that influx and efflux rate constants
  are equal at steady state (Methods, after Eq. 1; Fig. 1). The library
  encodes this as the standard `d/dt(effect) = keo * (Cc - effect)`.
  Users wishing to relax this assumption (e.g. when modelling joints with
  appreciable synovial volume relative to plasma) would need a separate
  two-compartment structural model.
- **Synovial fluid observation named `Csf`.** Park 2001 uses `C_SF`
  throughout for synovial fluid. The library follows the paper notation
  with `Csf` for the observation; this is distinct from `Ccsf`
  (cerebrospinal fluid) used by other nlmixr2lib models. The compartment
  itself uses the canonical `effect` name.
- **Virtual cohort body weight distribution.** The cohort of 200 subjects
  samples body weight from a normal distribution truncated to the paper's
  reported range (46-75 kg) with mean 62.2 kg and SD 8.8 kg matching
  Table 1. Sex, age, and arthritis subtype are not model covariates and
  are carried only as descriptive labels.
