Abstract

Including lactating women in clinical trials is imperative to generate relevant drug exposure and safety data needed to advise on clinical use of drugs in this understudied population. Recent changes in perspectives, regulatory guidance, and international networks which outline pragmatic approaches for advancing the conduct of clinical lactation studies are discussed. Case studies demonstrating successful application of modeling and simulation to complement clinical lactation data for enhanced knowledge of infant drug exposure are presented.
