Second Announcement
Dear colleagues,
There are still some seats available in our new introductory
pharmacometric training course entitled
'Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Protein Therapeutics -
Concepts and Hands-On Data Analysis'
The course will be held at the facilities of the University of Tennessee
Health Science Center in Memphis, TN, USA, on April 11-15, 2011.
The 5-day course will introduce participants to basic principles in the
pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic evaluation of novel protein
therapeutics and provide opportunities for hands-on PK and PK/PD
modeling and simulation examples relevant for protein drugs. Topics
include target-mediated drug disposition, tissue and tumor penetration,
interspecies scaling, first-in human dose selection, immunogenicity,
model-based drug development, disease progression modeling, and
drug-drug interactions. Hands-on data analysis will be performed
individually and in small groups using the WinNonlin software package.
Course faculty include Pia Davidsson (AstraZeneca), Johan Gabrielsson
(AstraZeneca), Suhas Iyer (Genentech), Bernd Meibohm (University of
Tennessee), Stacey Tannenbaum (Novartis), Frank-Peter Theil (Genentech),
and Daniel Weiner (Pharsight).
