GSK and Lundbeck present on improving drug-drug interaction at ADMET 2016

LONDON - April 13, 2016 - PRLog -- ADME and toxicology testing is one of the most important research activities related to new drug discovery. Ensuring a good ADMET study will accelerate approval and therefore commercialisation of drug products - and hence pharmacokinetics remain at the forefront of drug formulation and development.

Thanks to improved and innovative technologies, early stage ADME and toxicology screening of drug discovery and development process has become even more imperative.

As such, the 11th annual ADMET programme, sponsored by Corning and Sekisui XenoTech, will feature 3 keynotes from GSK, Lundbeck and InSilicoLynx Limited focusing on 'Improving Drug-Drug Interaction'.

1. 'Contribution of metabolites to DDI' - Lena Gustavsson, Head of Drug-Drug Interactions, Lundbeck

2. 'Estimating human plasma concentrations using in silico ADMET models´ - Mark Wenlok,  Principal Scientist, InSilicoLynx Limited

3. 'Role of drug transporters in drug delivery to CNS diseases' - Kunal Taskar, Senior Investigator, DMPK, GSK

What to expect?

ADMET 2016 will comprise of a series of practical case studies facilitated by leading industry experts who will provide you with best practices to:

• Optimise human ADMET studies to assess clinically-relevant drug bioavailability

• Use a population pharmacokinetic approach to assess DDI

• Evaluate and predict drug design interaction

• Review the structure based prediction of ADME properties

• Learn about In-Vivo drug-drug interaction

• Gain insight into PK/PD modelling to validate drug targets and toxicity
