Position OverviewThe Scientist II, Clinical Pharmacology and Pharmacometrics will bring extensive experience in oncology quantitative pharmacology, clinical pharmacology strategy, and oncology drug development.
Responsibilities- Formulate and deliver CP&MS strategy for late-stage and early preclinical / clinical development assets.
- Apply pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD), physiologic based PK (PBPK) and pharmacometric modeling & simulation (M&S) approaches to characterize drug absorption and disposition and assess the dynamics of drug effect to inform dose selection and go/no-go decisions.
- Work with preclinical and clinical CROs and company scientists to conduct and monitor clinical pharmacology studies, maintain study records and ensure study completion along program timelines.
- Contribute and drive program strategy, study design, protocol preparation, study execution, data review/analysis, report preparation and regulatory document preparation.
Qualifications- Ph.D. or PharmD in a relevant scientific discipline (clinical pharmacology, pharmacometrics or closely related scientific discipline).
- 0-2+ years' experience in pharmaceutical/biotechnology industry in regulated bioanalytical environment, preferably with multiple modalities, including small molecule, large molecule and ADC experience.
- Experience in noncompartmental and PBPK analyses and pharmacometric modeling and simulation oversight including use of WINNONLIN, NONMEM, MONOLIX or similar statistical modeling software
- Knowledge of R, R-shiny, SAS, MATLAB, NONMEM, MONOLIX, PBPK (gastroplus or Simcyp) or similar modeling software and substantial experience integrating quantitative clinical pharmacology with oncology drug development strategy
- Familiarity with current global clinical pharmacology and pharmacometrics regulatory guidance.
- Experience in development of anti-cancer agents, preferably ADCs and/or RLTs.
Knowledge and Skills- Excellent written/oral communication, interpersonal and problem-solving skills.
- Experience in oncology drug development with small and large molecule clinical pharmacology strategy. Experience in translational aspects of drug discovery and development is strongly preferred.
- Ability to deliver integrated clinical pharmacology roadmap to registration and new product label.
- Can manage multiple project related workstreams simultaneously under tight timelines collaboratively.
- Experience managing clinical pharmacology related data transfers, analysis, reporting, and related timelines.
- Experience interacting with global health authorities on optimal dosage design and clinical pharmacology strategy. Effective forms of written and spoken communication is essential (eg clinical pharmacology protocols, pharmacokinetic/pharmacometric reports and regulatory submissions and performing quality control).
- Knowledge of regulatory requirements governing drug development.
- Resourcefulness, pragmatism, creativity, and an independent work ethic.
