Abstract
There is marked heterogeneity in treatment response of atomoxetine in patients with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), especially for the pediatric population. This review aims to evaluate current evidence to characterize the dose-exposure relationship, establish clinically relevant metrics for systemic exposure to atomoxetine, define a therapeutic exposure range, and to provide a dose-adaptation strategy before implementing personalized dosing for atomoxetine in children with ADHD. A comprehensive search was performed across electronic databases (PubMed and Embase) covering the period of January 1, 1985 to July 10, 2022, to summarize recent advances in the pharmacokinetics, pharmacogenomics/pharmacogenetics (PGx), therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), physiologically based pharmacokinetics (PBPK), and population pharmacokinetics (PPK) of atomoxetine in children with ADHD. Some factors affecting the pharmacokinetics of atomoxetine were summarized, including food, CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 phenotypes, and drug‒drug interactions (DDIs). The association between treatment response and genetic polymorphisms of genes encoding pharmacological targets, such as norepinephrine transporter (NET/SLC6A2) and dopamine β hydroxylase (DBH), was also discussed. Based on well-developed and validated assays for monitoring plasma concentrations of atomoxetine, the therapeutic reference range in pediatric patients with ADHD proposed by several studies was summarized. However, supporting evidence on the relationship between systemic atomoxetine exposure levels and clinical response was far from sufficient. Personalizing atomoxetine dosage may be even more complex than anticipated thus far, but elucidating the best way to tailor the non-stimulant to a patient’s individual need will be achieved by combining two strategies: detailed research in linking the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in pediatric patients, and better understanding in nature and causes of ADHD, as well as environmental stressors.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
