概述
The regulatory landscape has shifted. ICH M15 is finalized. The EMA’s MIDD initiative is live. And the sponsors who are moving fastest aren’t waiting; they’re building mechanistic models that regulators trust and using them to make decisions that were previously impossible.
The question is no longer whether mechanistic modeling works. It’s whether your organization is using it boldly enough.
Join Karen Rowland Yeo and Piet van der Graaf, two of the field’s most recognized voices in Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetics (PBPK) and Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP) for a frank, case-study-driven conversation about what’s achievable today and what’s coming next.
You'll walk away knowing:
- How to build a modeling strategy that regulators trust – the collaboration, transparency, and credibility-building practices that turn models into accepted regulatory evidence.
- How to maximize patient benefit with first-in-human dosing for novel medicines while reducing unnecessary animal usage with comprehensive regulatory justification
- What’s working in special populations and rare disease today including building AI-enabled mechanistic Virtual Twins® for gene therapies and how new approaches are changing what’s possible for underserved patient populations
- Beyond CYP-mediated DDI – DDI examples continue to grow including emerging GLP-1 interactions and what they reveal about where mechanistic modeling is going
