ASCPT Webinar Presented by the International Transporter Consortium
Title:
Use of Extended Clearance Concept and PBPK Modeling in New Drug Discovery and Development: Predicting Target Tissue Exposure from In Vitro to In Vivo
Date and Time: Wednesday, March 31, 2021, 5:00-6:30 pm ET
Speaker: Yuichi Sugiyama, PhD, RIKEN Baton Zone Program
Description: Join us for a special 90-minute webinar with guest speaker Yuichi Sugiyama, PhD, as he officially kicks off the April 19-21, 2021, International Transporter Consortium Workshop 4. Professor Sugiyama will describe “Extended clearance concept” and show participants how to establish a physiologically- based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model that includes the transporter-mediated membrane transport and enzyme-mediated metabolism processes. In addition, changes in transporter (influx, efflux) function and metabolizing enzyme function affects the pharmacokinetics of drugs in the blood and the liver and, ultimately, the pharmacological and/or toxicological effects will be discussed. Related to the above-described objectives, the webinar will also cover recent studies on the following three topics.
- Necessity of incorporating albumin-mediated hepatic uptake mechanism to obtain better in vitro/in vivo extrapolation of hepatic clearance.
- Substrate-dependent and/or pre-incubation time dependent Ki values of OATP1B inhibitors.
- Use of endogenous biomarkers to facilitate subject phenotyping and DDI Prediction.

ASCPT Career Center Micro-Recruitment Session with the Certara’s Mark Lovern, PhD
Date and Time: Wednesday, May 5, 2021, 11:00 am EST
Speaker: Mark Lovern, PhD
Description: Have you ever wondered what a career as a drug development consultant is like? If so, please join this session with Mark Lovern, PhD, Senior Vice President of Quantitative Science Services at Certara. Mark will provide a general overview of the software and services that Certara supports. Then, he’ll discuss what it’s like to work as a pharmacometric or clinical pharmacology consultant in a fast paced, global organization. At the end of the presentation, there will be a Q&A session.
