Final Announcement:
We would like to bring to your attention that we still have some seats
available for the 3rd Annual Introductory Training Course on
'Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Protein Therapeutics - Concepts and
Hands-On Modeling and Simulation'
The course will be held at the facilities of the University of Tennessee Health
Science Center in Memphis, TN, USA, on April 15-19, 2013.
The 5-day course continues on the successful concept used in previous year
offerings and is focused on presenting concepts related to the PK and PK/PD
evaluation of therapeutic proteins.
It will introduce participants to basic principles in the pharmacokinetic and
pharmacodynamic evaluation of novel therapeutic proteins and will provide
opportunities for hands-on PK and PK/PD modeling and simulation examples
relevant to 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. The target audience comprises
pharmaceutical scientists from industry, academia and regulatory agencies with
basic knowledge in PK and PKPD that had only limited exposure to the challenges
associated with developing therapeutic proteins and that would like to receive
a comprehensive first overview or refresher on the PK and PKPD of this class of
compounds.

We hope you will join us in April in Memphis!
