Program subject to change.

9:00 am - 12:00 pm | Concurrent Short Courses 1 and 2

Short Course 1: Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling to Predict Induction Mediated Drug-drug Interactions
Co-Chairs: Kunal Taskar, GSK, Stevenage, United Kingdom and Koji Chiba, Yokohama University of Pharmacy, Yokohama, Japan

Background: This short course is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of PBPK modeling and outline challenges and opportunities for the prediction of CYP induction mediated DDIs, initially using CYP3A as the primary induced enzyme and building in complexities observed in real world examples.

Why and When Do I Use PBPK Modeling
Kunal Taskar, GSK, Stevenage, United Kingdom

How Do I Build an ‘Ideal’ PBPK Model if My Drug is Either a Substrate or Inducer
Ryuta Asaumi, Astellas Pharma, Chuou-ku, Japan

How Do I Use PBPK Modeling to Discern Complex Drug-drug Interactions?
Jayaprakasam Bolleddula, EMD Serono, Boston, Massachusetts, USA

How will CYP Induction Related PBPK Applications be Evaluated during the NDA Reviews?
Ying-Hong Wang, FDA, Silver Spring, Maryland, USA

Short Course 2: Minimizing Off-Target Toxicities of Reactive Metabolites
Co-Chairs: Valerie Kramlinger, Amgen, Nashville, Tennessee, USA and Miki Nakajima, Kanazawa University, Kanazawa, Japan

Background: This short course explores strategies for minimizing off-target toxicities caused by reactive metabolites in drug development. Featuring speakers from industry and academia, the course covers industrial perspectives, mitigation strategies for drug-induced liver injury, novel mechanisms of drug-metabolizing hydrolases, and in vivo models for assessing toxicity. Attendees will gain valuable insights into identifying, evaluating, and mitigating risks associated with reactive metabolites in pharmaceutical research and development.
