Remote Pharmacometrics opportunity
Our Client is seeking the role of Associate Director/Director Clinical
Pharmacologist/Pharmacokineticist in the Department of Translational Medicine
and Early Stage Clinical Development plays a central role in both clinical
development and in support of nonclinical development. He/she will represent
Clinical Pharmacology function and provide subject matter expertise on
cross-functional project teams. He/she will assist in directing the clinical
pharmacology development plan, synopsis preparation, clinical phase oversight,
and reporting, and provide leadership of a multifunctional study team focused
on clinical studies through design, delivery, and reporting, as well as
ensuring scientific accountability. He/she will mentor junior and senior level
scientists in the department in addition to being an individual contributor.
A core scientific responsibility is ensuring optimal doses and dosage regimens
in patients, and as such, the successful candidate must be able to integrate
the knowledge of PK/PD, quantitative modeling and simulation, drug development,
TK, and nonclinical PK (ADME and DMPK). Working within the clinical development
organization, the role supports multiple programs through participation on
internal project working teams and serves as a liaison between chemistry, life
sciences, regulatory and clinical operations. Essential Areas of
Responsibility: The incumbent may design, conduct and/or manage internal and
external IND-enabling studies (eg: in vitro and in vivo nonclinical metabolism
and PK), design and review clinical pharmacology study protocols and support
clinical trials, conduct pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modeling and analyses,
and incorporate findings into study report and regulatory documents as well as
participate directly in regulatory interactions. A strong background in
clinical pharmacology and pharmacokinetics combined with excellent leadership
and communications skills are essential in this dynamic role. Clinical
pharmacology experience with both small and large molecules in the area of
oncology/immuno-oncology therapeutics is highly desired. Knowledge of, and
direct experience with pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modeling, bioanalytical
analysis, and nonclinical ADME are desirable attributes.
The candidate is expected to be an active contributor to the multi-disciplinary
project teams, providing innovative and progressive thinking to projects and
where appropriate guidance to other team members. Upon completion of
on-boarding, this person will be relied upon to act independently, within a
highly matrixed clinical development organization and must have the experience
and conviction to provide sound clinical pharmacology related input to the
project teams.
Minimum Education & Experience Requirements:
Ph.D. or Pharm D in Pharmaceutical Sciences, Pharmacometrics, or related field
with 6+ years (Associated Director) or 10+ years (Director) of experience in
pharmaceutical industry. Demonstrated experience in serving as clinical
pharmacology lead on development programs.
Experience in non-compartment and model-based PK and PK/PD analyses and
inclusion of data in the preparation of manuscripts, study reports and sections
of regulatory submission documents (eg: INDs, NDAs, CTDs) is required.
The incumbent should have a strong understanding of pharmacokinetic theory,
compartmental modeling and simulation, and statistical approaches utilizing the
latest computational approaches and tools
Hands-on experience in utilizing WinNonLin, NONMEM and/or other modeling
software is required. Experience with population PK, mechanistic PK-PD
modeling/systems pharmacology and PBPK modeling is a plus. Familiarity with
statistical approaches and programs for data analysis.
Scientific writing and presentation skills are essential; peer reviewed
publications in a relevant field required.
Current knowledge of FDA regulatory guidance related to nonclinical and
clinical pharmacology; experience having direct interaction with FDA, including
submission of IND, NDA and other regulatory documents is required.
Understanding of, and compliance with, regulatory, protocol, standard operating
procedures, and Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) and Good Clinical Practices
(GCP) as appropriate.
Demonstrated direct management of internal and external personnel (outsourced
projects) is required.
