Certara Scientists Showcase PK/PD Modeling Advances at ASCPT Annual Meeting

Certara experts will present 17 posters in addition to leading a workshop and a symposium

PRINCETON, NJ – Mar. 13, 2017 – Certara®, the leading provider of decision support technology and consulting services for optimizing drug development and improving health outcomes, today announced that its scientists will be highlighting pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) modeling advances during 19 sessions at the American Society for Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics (ASCPT) 2017 Annual Meeting. This conference will be held from Mar. 15-18 at the Washington Marriott Wardman Park in Washington, DC.

“As model-informed drug discovery and development (MID3) is increasingly adopted by industry, academia and the global regulatory agencies, and its role in informing new drug labels grows, we are committed to continuing to share our experiences with our peers at ASCPT, and helping to propel the field forward,” said Chief Scientific Officer Amin Rostami, PharmD, PhD. “This year, we will be presenting empirical and mechanistic modeling of several vulnerable populations, including pediatric, oncology and organ-impaired patients.”

Certara’s contributions to this year’s ASCPT Annual Meeting are outlined below. The company will also have experts available to answer questions at booths 10 and 11.
