In this review, the potential of OoC models to improve the prediction of human oral bioavailability and intrinsic clearance is discussed, with a focus on the functionality of the models and the application in current drug development practice. Multi-OoC models demonstrating the application for pharmacokinetic (PK) studies are summarized and existing challenges are identified. Physiological parameters for a minimal viable platform of a multi-OoC model to study PK are provided, together with PK specific read-outs and recommendations for relevant reference compounds to validate the model. Finally, the translation to in vivo PK profiles is discussed, which will be required to routinely apply OoC models during drug development.}, year = {2023}, journal = {Pharmacological Research}, volume = {195}, pages = {106853}, month = {2023-09-01}, issn = {1043-6618}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1043661823002098}, doi = {10.1016/j.phrs.2023.106853}, }
