Conditions

Autoimmune Bullous Dermatose

Brief summary

The main autoimmune bullous dermatoses are pemphigus and cicatricial pemphigoid. Pemphigus is an autoimmune dermatological disease characterized by the production of anti-desmoclesin antibodies 1 and 3, affecting the skin and mucous membranes.The cicatricial pemphigoid is an autoimmune dermatological disease, characterized by the production of anti-zone antibodies of the basal membrane and characterized by a predominant mucosal involvement. Mycophenolic acid (MPA) is an increasingly used form of corticosteroid. Despite its increasing use, pharmacokinetics in autoimmune bullous dermatosis remain little studied.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Evaluation of the Bayesian estimator performance8 hoursThe evaluation of the Bayesian estimator performance will be based on its capacity to predict MPA AUC (Area Under the Curve), expressed as the bias (%) and the precision (root mean square error; RMSE) between the predicted AUC calculated using a limited number of samples performed in the first 4 hours post dosing and the observed AUC estimated using the reference method (trapezoidal rule method). A Bland Altman curve will be constructed.
