As novel molecular targets are being continuously discovered and new treatments developed, oncology is one of the biggest therapeutic areas in precision medicine. In particular, new targeted anti-cancer medications that are taken orally, such as the protein kinase inhibitors (KIs), are ideal candidates for model-informed precision dosing (MIPD) technologies.1 One of these technologies is called physiologically-based […]

Apocalyptic clinical pharmacology helps drug developers save resources and time through providing a framework for understanding the interaction of the drug under development with the biological system. This framework also helps answer questions from regulatory authorities who are evaluating the safety and efficacy of the drug. Making informed decisions throughout the drug development process requires […]

Physiologically-based pharmacokinetics (PBPK) is a valuable resource to support decisions throughout drug development for sponsors and regulators. PBPK is used extensively to predict drug-drug interactions (DDIs), to inform dosing and clinical study design, to predict drug exposure, to predict variation in drug clearance, and to understand mechanisms of drug disposition. Virtual Twin technology, based on […]

In this blog, I will introduce “apocalyptic clinical pharmacology” and provide a framework for using this approach in drug development, which can save resources and time. Apocalyptic clinical pharmacology in drug development provides value offering a framework for thinking about the relationship between the drug dose and the biological system. What is apocalyptic clinical pharmacology? […]

In a recent Expert Review of Clinical Pharmacology article, I assessed the status and future direction of precision dosing in clinical medicine.1 Model-informed precision dosing (MIPD) is a modeling and simulation (M&S) approach in healthcare that is used to predict the most effective and/or least toxic drug dose for a patient. MIPD could revolutionize healthcare […]

As drug development has become more complex, with a higher risk of failure, greater uncertainty, and increased expense, the need for a quantitative and regulatory science-based strategy becomes clear. The first step in that performing that strategic assessment is a gap analysis and roadmap. Over the last couple of months, I’ve written a series of blog […]

Clinical pharmacology gap analysis is a tool for outlining your drug program’s needs, prioritizing these needs, and providing a framework for how to satisfy them. This tool can create value for drug development programs. While gap analysis can be performed at any point in the drug development continuum, early engagement is best for maximizing its benefits. […]
Read MoreIn this webinar, Pau Aceves, Associate Director of Consulting Services at Certara, presented case studies on how tracer kinetics were used to inform development of new drugs for lung, CNS, and liver diseases. By watching this webinar, you will learn how tracer kinetics can leveraged for PK, PD, and in silico modeling applications.

There are numerous challenges in developing oncology drugs: (1) they are often very toxic which precludes conducting clinical trials in healthy volunteers, (2) the PK of a drug may be altered in cancer patients due to demographic and physiological differences as compared to healthy volunteers, and (3) cancer patients face elevated drug-drug interaction (DDI) risk […]
