Purpose The Clinical Pharmacology (CP) Principal Scientist role within Clinical Pharmacology & Pharmacometrics (CPP) is to apply and promote clinical pharmacology knowledge, including the design of clinical pharmacology studies and/or clinical pharmacology component of clinical studies, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics analyses and reporting, and application of principles of model-informed drug development (MIDD) to specific studies within a program, with guidance from senior CPP leaders. With oversight, the Senior Scientist can function as CP Leader on the Compound Development Teams (CDT) working in collaboration with various stakeholders within the team and within CPP (e.g., Pharmacometrics) and execute the day-to-day operations for the clinical pharmacology aspects of the assigned studies and/or programs. Programs can be across all stages of drug development ranging from pre-New Molecular Entity (NME) declaration through post-marketing support. You will be responsible for Contribute to the overall compound development strategy via application of quantitative methods to integrate knowledge of nonclinical data (e.g., metabolism, BCS classification, pharmacology, safety), PK, PD (e.g., biomarker, efficacy, and/or safety), patient characteristics, disease states, competitive landscape, and drug interactions to influence go/no go decisions, support patient sub-population, dose and dosage regimen selection, and optimize study designs throughout drug development. Plan and perform appropriate analysis (e.g., non-compartmental, population and/or modelling and simulation analysis of PK and/or PD data) of preclinical-clinical translation, dose/exposure-response relationships, to guide dose regimen and optimize study design. Summarize and provide interpretation of results of PK and PK/PD analyses with respect to their impact on a development program and clinical use. Contribute to the design and execution of scientifically robust and efficient clinical studies and pharmacology strategies for development candidates.
