Figure 1. Developmental Changes in Physiologic Factors That Influence Drug Disposition in Infants, Children, and Adolescents.

Physiologic changes in multiple organs and organ systems during development are responsible for age-related differences in drug disposi-tion. As reflected by Panel A, the activity of many cytochrome P-450 (CYP) isoforms and a single glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) isoform is markedly diminished during the first two months of life. In addition, the acquisition of adult activity over time is enzyme- and isoform-specif-ic. Panel B shows age-dependent changes in body composition, which influence the apparent volume of distribution for drugs. Infants in the first six months of life have markedly expanded total-body water and extracellular water, expressed as a percentage of total body weight, as compared with older infants and adults. Panel C shows the age-dependent changes in both the structure and function of the gastrointestinal tract. As with hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes (Panel A), the activity of cytochrome P-450 1A1 (CYP1A1) in the intestine is low during early life. Panel D summarizes the effect of postnatal development on the processes of active tubular secretion — represented by the clearance of para-aminohippuric acid and the glomerular filtration rate, both of which approximate adult activity by 6 to 12 months of age. Panel E shows age dependence in the thickness, extent of perfusion, and extent of hydration of the skin and the relative size of the skin-surface area (reflected by the ratio of body-surface area to body weight). Although skin thickness is similar in infants and adults, the extent of perfusion and hydra-tion diminishes from infancy to adulthood. Data were adapted from Agunod et al.,

nfants and children are far different from adults in terms of

societal, psychosocial, behavioral, and medical perspectives. More than 100 yearsago Dr. Abraham Jacobi, the father of American pediatrics, recognized the impor-

tance of and need for age-appropriate pharmacotherapy when he wrote, “Pediatricsdoes not deal with miniature men and women, with reduced doses and the same classof disease in smaller bodies, but . . . has its own independent range and horizon.”

1

As our knowledge of normal growth and development has increased in the past severaldecades, so has our recognition that developmental changes profoundly affect the re-sponses to medications and produce a need for age-dependent adjustments in doses.

Before the integration of developmental pharmacology into clinical and therapeuticdecision making, numerous approaches to determining pediatric drug doses were rec-ommended (e.g., formulas such as Young’s rule and Clark’s rule). Some of these ap-proaches use discrete age points, whereas others use allometric principles (i.e., thosebased on relative body size) that generally assume there are predictable, linear relationsbetween mass (e.g., cell mass and body weight) and body-surface area among infants,children, adolescents, and adults.

2

However, human growth is not a linear process;age-associated changes in body composition and organ function are dynamic and canbe discordant during the first decade of life. Thus, simplified dosing approaches arenot adequate for individualizing drug doses across the span of childhood.

3

As a result,the use of dosing equations has largely been replaced by adjustment (or normalization)of the drug dose for either body weight or body-surface area. Although such guidelinesare generally adequate for initiating therapy, they may fall short when it comes to con-tinued or long-term treatment, since maintenance therapy must be individualized onthe basis of developmental differences in pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, orboth. Thus, the provision of safe and effective drug therapy for children requires a fun-damental understanding and integration of the role of ontogeny in the disposition andactions of drugs.

Panel D summarizes the effect of postnatal development on the processes of active tubular secretion — represented by the clearance of para-aminohippuric acid and the glomerular filtration rate, both of which approximate adult activity by 6 to 12 months of age. Panel E shows age dependence in the thickness, extent of perfusion, and extent of hydration of the skin and the relative size of the skin-surface area (reflected by the ratio of body-surface area to body weight). Although skin thickness is similar in infants and adults, the extent of perfusion and hydra-tion diminishes from infancy to adulthood. Data were adapted from Agunod et al.,

nfants and children are far different from adults in terms of

societal, psychosocial, behavioral, and medical perspectives. More than 100 yearsago Dr. Abraham Jacobi, the father of American pediatrics, recognized the impor-

tance of and need for age-appropriate pharmacotherapy when he wrote, “Pediatricsdoes not deal with miniature men and women, with reduced doses and the same classof disease in smaller bodies, but . . . has its own independent range and horizon.”

1

As our knowledge of normal growth and development has increased in the past severaldecades, so has our recognition that developmental changes profoundly affect the re-sponses to medications and produce a need for age-dependent adjustments in doses.

Before the integration of developmental pharmacology into clinical and therapeuticdecision making, numerous approaches to determining pediatric drug doses were rec-ommended (e.g., formulas such as Young’s rule and Clark’s rule). Some of these ap-proaches use discrete age points, whereas others use allometric principles (i.e., thosebased on relative body size) that generally assume there are predictable, linear relationsbetween mass (e.g., cell mass and body weight) and body-surface area among infants,children, adolescents, and adults.

2

However, human growth is not a linear process;age-associated changes in body composition and organ function are dynamic and canbe discordant during the first decade of life. Thus, simplified dosing approaches arenot adequate for individualizing drug doses across the span of childhood.

3

As a result,the use of dosing equations has largely been replaced by adjustment (or normalization)of the drug dose for either body weight or body-surface area. Although such guidelinesare generally adequate for initiating therapy, they may fall short when it comes to con-tinued or long-term treatment, since maintenance therapy must be individualized onthe basis of developmental differences in pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, orboth. Thus, the provision of safe and effective drug therapy for children requires a fun-damental understanding and integration of the role of ontogeny in the disposition andactions of drugs.

absorption of drugs

A variety of methods are used to administer drugs to children, the most common ofwhich involve extravascular routes. A therapeutic agent administered by means of anyextravascular route must overcome chemical, physical, mechanical, and biologic barriersin order to be absorbed. Developmental changes in absorptive surfaces such as the gas-

Infant dose if volume of distribution is <0.3liter per kilogram = infant’s body-surface area(in square meters ÷ 1.73 m2) ¬ the adult dose

and

Infant dose if volume of distribution (deter-mined from the literature) is ≥0.3 liter perkilogram = infant’s body weight (in kilo-grams ÷ 70 kg) ¬ the adult dose.

This approach is useful only in determining the doseas opposed to the dosing interval, in that the equa-tions contain no specific variable that describes po-tential age-associated differences in drug clearance.

The advances in pediatric clinical pharmacologyduring the past decade stem from an enhanced un-

derstanding of the influence of growth and devel-opment on the disposition and actions of drugs.The expanded scope of clinical trials involvingchildren afforded by the provisions of the BestPharmaceuticals for Children Act of 200295 andan ethical construct for conducting drug researchin children that is viewed as permissive (as opposedto restrictive)96 will facilitate improvements in drugtherapy for this age group. Ensuing research intothe ontogeny and pharmacogenomics of transport-ers, receptor systems, and cell signaling will alsoelucidate the developmental events that affect thetreatment of childhood diseases and their responseto drug treatment.97 The ultimate goal of providinginfants and children with safe and effective drugtherapy must be kept clearly in sight and will bemade possible by specifically including them in clin-ical trials.

conclusions

* The usual doses in adults were adjusted for an average ideal adult body weight of 70 kg. All other doses reflected average ranges recommend-ed in a widely used pediatric handbook.93 Unless otherwise noted, all drugs are given intravenously. The information contained in this table is intended only to illustrate the influence of developmental differences in drug disposition and action on average dose requirements among the age groups and is not meant to convey specific dose recommendations.

† The initial oral doses of captopril are given.
