Second Announcement: We would like to bring to your attention the 2nd 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 16-20, 2012. 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. 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 protein therapeutics and that would like to receive a comprehensive first overview or refresher on the PK and PKPD of this class of compounds.
