Progress in pharmacokinetics, the science devoted to the study of drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion processes, was determined largely by the availability of sensitive and specific analytical methods to describe the time course of drug and drug metabolite concentrations in biologic fluids and tissues. Most of the mathematical techniques or models to characterize pharmacokinetic processes could be and were taken from chemical kinetics, physiology, and enzymology, Much has been learned by applying these analytical and mathematical techniques in properly designed studies. It was found, for example, that some drugs are incompletely absorbed or partly metabolized during absorption; some distribution, binding, transport, and biotransformation processes are readily saturable (nonlinear) in the therapeutic concentration range of drugs; many drug biotransformation processes can be highly variable due to genetic, environmental, and pathophysiologic factors. These findings and the relative ease of measuring drug and drug metabolite concentrations have stimulated extensive research in pharmaco- kinetics. Many scientists engaged in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetic studies believe that interindividual differences in the clinical response to drugs are almost always due to corresponding differences in pharmacokinetics. It is only relatively recently that an increasing number of pharmaceutical scientists and clinical pharmacologists have begun to focus on pharmacodynamics, the science that relates the time course of drug concentrations to the time course of pharmacologic effects in humans and animals. This was absolutely essential for the development of rational pharmacotherapeutics because pharmacodynamics determines the target drug concentration profile required to elicit the desired therapeutic effect whereas pharmacokinetics determines the drug dosing regimen necessary to achieve the targeted drug concentrations. As in pharmacokinetics, methods to measure pharmacologic effects and biomath- ematical models had to be developed for characterizing and evaluating pharmacodynamic processes, i.e., the time courses of various pharmacologic effects. The models serve to summarize by means of appropriate parameter values the pharmacodynamic process(es) under consideration. The pharmacodynamic parameter values are used to assess the possible influence of such variables as age, gender, race, concomitant or prior use of other drugs, and disease on the drug concentration versus effect relationship. A combination of pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic models should be able to permit predictions of the effects of dose, dosing rate, and time on the temporal pattern of drug effects. A proper analysis of drug effect-concentration-time data can lead to the recognition of possible functional tolerance development or the formation of pharmacologically active or interactive metabo- lites. It can rationalize an apparent dissociation between the time courses of drug concentration and effect on the basis of drug distribution to an apparent effect compartment or as a consequence of an indirect mechanism of action of the drug. Since pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) processes are so intimately associated as determinants of the time course of pharmacologic effects, it is customary to perform combined pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic modeling rather than to simply characterize drug concentration- effect relationships in isolation. PK-PD modeling, like pharmacokinetic modeling, requires a certain research discipline: one initially develops a model based, if possible, on the known mechanism of the drug’s action and on available concentration-effect-time data; one then verifies and refines (or replaces) the model by additional studies with different single and multiple bolus doses or different rates of intravenous infusion. To distinguish between several possible models, one uses computer simulations to determine the experimental conditions that can best reveal the most appropriate model. Unfortunately, this kind of research discipline is not yet well developed in pharmacodynamics; there have been many “hit-and-run” types of study consisting of pharmacodynamic modeling of single dose concentration-effect-time data without appropriate verification. As in pharmacokinetics, such mind- less number crunching will gradually diminish and eventually disappear as the science of pharmacodynamics matures. Many pharmacodynamic studies are performed by measuring surrogate effects, i.e., effects that are believed to directly reflect the therapeutic (or toxic) effects of interest but are more easily measured than the therapeutic effects. It is tempting for the kineticist to measure and model that which is most readily measurable even if it is not that which is most relevant to the clinical use of a drug. The use of surrogate measures of drug effects in research and product development is presently the subject of intensive debate; it has practical, ethical, financial, and political aspects. From a scientific perspective, the suitability of surrogate markers of drug effects should be assessed on the basis of the biochemical or physiological mechanisms involved and the locus of drug action. In the final analysis, long-term studies at different and relatively constant drug concentrations may be required to characterize the pharmacodynamics of certain therapeutic effects (for example, the effect of an antihypertensive agent on morbidity and mortality). It is already evident that there are quantitative interindividual differences in the pharmacodynamics of many drugs, associated with such variables as age, gender, race, and disease. Much effort will have to be directed in the future to the study of population pharmacodynamics in the hope of discovering useful covariates or predictors of an individual’s pharmacodynamic characteristics. Such studies must be designed in accordance with the relevant epidemiologic principles so that they encompass a patient population in which all possible important covariates (demographic and pathophysiologic variables) are adequately represented. The results of such population pharmacodynamic studies, together with corresponding population pharmacokinetic information, will constitute the basis for the “software” or “user’s manual” that should be developed for every new drug to instruct physicians and pharmacists how to optimize the dosage regimen for individual patients. A book on pharmacodynamics can emphasize theory, applications, or both. This book strikes an effective balance between theory and practice, with the first four chapters devoted to the general principles of PK-PD modeling and the twelve subsequent chapters focusing on specific classes of medicinal agents. This will permit the reader to visualize the translation of theory to practice and, hopefully, encourage him/her to apply the principles of pharmacodynamics in rational drug product development and pharmacotherapy.

(1979) and Ph.D. (1984) from the University of Munster, Germany. He then joined as a Postdoctoral Research Pharmacologist in the Department of Pharma- ceutical Chemistry, School of Pharmacy, University of California, San Francisco, working for Professor W. Sadee. He was appointed Assistant Professor in the Department of Pharmaceutics, College of Pharmacy, University of Florida in July 1987. In July 1992, Dr. Hochhaus was promoted to the position of Associate Professor. He is responsible for pharmaceutical analysis courses on the undergraduate and graduate level, currently responsible for the Biopharmaceutics and Pharmacoki- netic class in the Department of Pharmaceutics, University of Florida, Gainesville. Dr. Hochhaus received the “Young Investigator Award” from the Deutsche Gesellschaft fuer Atemwegs und Lungenforschung for the pharmacokinetic/dynamic properties of fenoterol, and was elected Fellow of the American College of Clinical Pharmacology.
