Challenges and opportunities within peptide ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination) were presented and discussed at the 3rd online workshop of the Peptide ADME Discussion Group (3rd of February 2021). This article summarises the presentations and discussions from this workshop.The following topics were covered:Peptide drug-drug interactionsImpact of septic shock on PK and PD of the peptide selepressinMS processing software for metabolite identification of peptidesProfiling of peptides in preclinical drug developmentStrategy for immunogenicity testing of peptidesIn vitro stability testing of peptides for inhalation and automated LC-MS.
Keywords: ADME; Peptides; drug-drug interactions; immunogenicity testing drug development; in vitro assays.
