Parameter Estimation and Pharmacodynamics (PE/PD)
A systems pharmacology approach to modeling and simulation—accelerating model building and covariate recognition in drug development by combining top-down and bottom-up PBPK modeling of pharmacokinetics linked to drug response.
The workshop covers the concepts and the practical applications of integrating in vitro data and physiological knowledge with clinical
observations for the purpose of estimating unknown/uncertain model parameters. Delegates will work through different parameter
estimation examples using fitting tools and explore various PD models.

Objectives
Key aspects covered in this course:
• The theoretical basis for combining bottom-up and top-down modeling and simulation
• Parameter estimation:
– Step-by-step guidance on data entry, fitting, and interpretation of results
– Simultaneous fitting of PK and PD parameters
– Covariate recognition
– Exploring use of external optimization packages (eg, R) with embedded Simcyp engine in PE
• Pharmacodynamics:
– Understanding of various PD models available within the Simcyp Simulator
– Use of preliminary clinical data to model and simulate various covariate effects
(eg, genotypic/phenotypic differences, effects of diseases such as renal impairment or cirrhosis)
– PD at the relevant effect site (eg, liver)
– Custom scripting of user-defined PD models
