Abstract:
This talk focuses on model‐informed drug development (MIDD) of a novel 
antisense oligonucleotide, targeting PCSK9 for treatment of hypocholesteremia. 
The case study exemplifies use of MIDD to analyze emerging data from an ongoing 
first‐in‐human study, utility of the US Food and Drug Administration MIDD pilot 
program to accelerate timelines, innovative use of competitor data to set 
biomarker targets, and use of MIDD to optimize sample size and dose selection, 
as well as to accelerate and de‐risk a phase IIb study. The focus of the 
case‐study is on the cross‐functional collaboration and other key MIDD enablers 
that are critical to maximize the value of MIDD, rather than the technical 
application of MIDD.
