Applications & Advances

Statistics from the FDA’s NDA submissions over the past ten years show a significant increase in cases that include physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling supporting the design of clinical studies evaluating drug-drug interactions (DDI). Regulatory agencies, including the FDA and EMA, have strongly recommended that drug developers include PBPK modeling to support clinical DDI studies and both have published guidance for regulating PBPK modeling recently (in 2018 and 2016, respectively). However, due to the complexity of development, PBPK modeling is still a challenge for many companies.

This webinar will help you to understand the current status of PBPK modeling and applications in clinical studies, focusing on drug-drug interactions.

You can expect

• A detailed and in-depth demonstration of PBPK modeling approaches.
• Summaries of the guidance and recommendations from regulatory agencies for using PBPK modeling to support clinical DDIs.
• Descriptions of the studies and experiments needed to develop PBPK models (including in vitro metabolism and ADME).
• An exploration into when PBPK modeling would be most beneficial or critical to include.
• Case study reviews.
