Workshop in Japan: Simcyp Biopharmaceutics – Recent Advances and Applications

On-site Event Overview

The impact and acceptance of Physiologically-Based Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modelling continues to exhibit strong growth within the pharmaceutical industry, and PBPK approaches are increasingly being advocated by regulatory agencies to streamline drug development. The US FDA has released its draft guidance on this in Oct 2020: ‘The Use of Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Analyses.’

PBPK or Physiologically-Based Biopharmaceutics modelling (PBBM), whether for new drugs or generics, clinical stage or biopharmaceutics/formulation, has clearly demonstrated its value in saving time and budget, while strengthening internal decision-making. At this event we will present recent development in the biopharmaceutics module of the Simcyp Simulator and through several real-word case studies illustrate the increased adoption of Model Informed Formulation Development (MIFD) by sponsors and acceptance by regulators.

Simcyp Biopharmaceutics Applications:

  • Predicting the outcome of a Bioequivalence (BE) study comparing test and reference formulations
  • Formulation changes in late stage clinical development
  • Dissolution specification setting
  • Manufacturing site change
  • Waiver of BE study
  • Minimize the number of “pilot” PK studies
  • Provide more confidence in the outcome of a “pivotal” BE study

Event Objectives:

  • To get familiar with the latest developments in the Simcyp Biopharmaceutics module
  • Getting familiar with the latest regulatory acceptance of PBPK applications in biopharmaceutics area
  • Real world applications of Simcyp Biopharmaceutics module

Location:

Sannomiya Training Center, Kobe, Japan
