The Importance of the Role
This leadership role will be developing and executing translational, clinical pharmacology and pharmacometrics strategies and deliverables from early through late-stage clinical development, including:
- Clinical dose selection and refinement across all phases of clinical development
- FIH and clinical pharmacology study designs
- Development and hands-on application of MIDD using population and statistically based methodologies
- Mechanistic and translational PK/PD approaches
- Managing a team of scientists and serving as a SME on programs
Opportunity to Make a Difference
- Lead clinical pharmacology and pharmacometrics workstreams in CNS diseases (rare disease drug development experience preferred)
- Serve as therapeutic lead and SME (siRNA or oligonucleotide experience preferred) for clinical pharmacology strategies, protocol preparation, study execution, data review/analysis, and study reports
- Lead translational and mechanistically based PK/PD modeling to enable identification of FIH dose and early efficacy/safety characterization using biomarkers and disease animal models
- Lead and execute pharmacometrics strategies across all stages, including population PK, PK/PD modeling and simulations, meta-analysis, and disease modeling
- Support non-clinical PK/PD, ADME, and DMPK evaluations (strategy development, study design/execution, data analyses)
- Represent as functional lead for global regulatory activities and HA engagements; NDA and/or BLA experience is required
- Supervise, mentor, and develop a team of scientists
- Contribute to platform-based pharmacology across novel genetic modalities and disease indications
- Publish manuscripts and advocate scientific leadership at external conferences
