Leading academics and delegates from around the world
gathered last week for Quotient Bioresearch's Autumn Seminar into the latest
approaches in the use of PK, PD and PK/PD modelling in drug development.
The seminar, held at Quotient Bioresearch's Bioanalytical
Sciences facility in Cambridgeshire,
UK saw over 60
delegates from the pharmaceutical industry meet to hear a series of
presentations and take part in lively debate with key academics and industry thought-leaders.
Leading academic presentations included a key note review
from Professor Bernd Meibohm, University
of Tennessee, who
examined "Applications of PK/PD modelling in the development of protein
therapeutics"; and Professor Alasdair MacGowan's review entitled "Applications
of PK/PD modelling in the development of antimicrobials". Prof. Meibohm wrapped
up the day by chairing a dynamic panel discussion.
Delegates engaged in a varied programme which featured a
series of talks illustrating how modelling can help to make key decisions in
drug development with discussion topics covering all stages of development, and
small molecules through to biopharmaceuticals.
Steve Pleasance, Managing Director for Bioanalytical
Sciences at Quotient Bioresearch commented: "Our regular seminar is becoming a
respected fixture in the industry calendar and Prof. Meibohm's participation
this year, both presenting his key note review and chairing the wider panel
discussions, further reinforced its status."
Steve added: "We chose a programme that combined in-depth
talks that illustrated aspects of the topic within a broad scope. The seminar
programme provided both entry points into areas of general interest and
satisfied delegates' specific specialist focus - from examining the challenges
of PK investigations to how modelling can be used to predict clinical studies -
proved highly popular.
"The talks sparked interesting discussion between delegates
and guest speakers, and we look forward to the continued success of our annual
seminar."
