In the biopharma industry, we often focus on scientific research and research methodologies. However, software design and usability is also vital in translating complex data and technologies into accessible and user-friendly solutions.
3 Clinical Quality Problems That Simulation Training Solves
Want to see fewer protocol deviations and agile change management in your clinical trials while also reducing burdens on research site staff?
Targeting Complement to Reduce Disease Activity: Challenges and Opportunities in the Publicly Available Data (Part Two)
In part one of this complement blog series, the complement cascade and its role in various diseases was introduced, as well as the potential for mechanistic modeling to support development of complement‑targeted therapeutics. COMPLEMENTsym, a quantitative systems pharmacology (QSP) model of complement focused on the alternative and terminal pathways (AP, TP, respectively) was introduced.
Don’t Wait Until Phase III: Why Early DILI Prediction is Key to Drug Development Success
As anyone who has worked in the pharmaceutical industry for awhile can tell you, there are many challenges, but one in particular keeps many of us up at night – the specter of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) lurking later in the drug development process.
Key Takeaways on the Acceptability of PBPK from the ICH Harmonised Guideline on Drug Interaction Studies
One of the significant challenges faced by pharmaceutical companies is the sometimes unclear guidance on what data regulators want to see included in their submissions and the format in which it should be provided.
The Power of Using a Single PBPK Modeling and Simulation Platform
Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling is now a standard tool used across the pharmaceutical industry to increase understanding of a drug’s behavior in the body and to help guide its development.
