With R&D spending soaring to over the past 5 years, and drug approval plunging 40% in the same time, it is crucial that your drug candidates enter the clinic with as little risk as possible.
The resounding message coming from your peers in the drug development industry is that there needs to be more transparency over the translation of PK/PD data into clinical trial design, and better integration from bench to bedside.
The 3rd Annual World PK/PD Summit will directly address how you can best improve the integration of PK/PD studies and how you can to translate data into early clinical trial design. Attend to hear the likes of Novartis, Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, Millennium and many more discuss how model-based development can help you decide what molecules to kill early, what candidates to accelerate into the clinic and what dosage to use.
After the success of our previous meetings, we have worked with your peers to create an agenda that accurately reflect what you need to know in order to leverage your analyses to their full potential and that directly reflects your needs.
So what’s on the agenda at the World PK/PD Summit?
How to improve the integration of pre-clinical and clinical studies
Translating past data efficiently to ease progress through the clinic
Methods of predicting and managing drug-drug interactions
How to identify effective biomarkers that best represent efficacy and toxicity
Using population PK to optimize dosing regimens in sub-populations
Advances in physiologically based modeling and how they can aid the reduction of drug attrition
