Optimization of Initial Dose Regimen for Sirolimus in Pediatric Patients With Lymphangioma

Sirolimus is an effective oral treatment for pediatric patients with lymphangioma. The present clinical study in 15 children (0.12–16.39 years of age) examines the effects of underlying factors on sirolimus concentrations through application of a population pharmacokinetic model. Using Monte Carlo s...

This study is the first to establish a population pharmacokinetic model for sirolimus and to recommend initial doses in pediatric patients with lymphangioma. Large scale, prospective studies are needed in the future.
