SUMMARY:Accelerating Pre-Clinical Large-Molecule Screening with an Integrated DMPK/ADME Approach
DESCRIPTION:In early discovery and development\, accurate bioanalytical methods\, combined with CMC manufacturability\, are essential for driving molecule screening and assessing developability within a DMPK/ADME framework. \nIn this webinar\, BioDuro will present case studies spanning multiple novel modalities including antibodies\, bispecific antibodies\, ADC (Antibody Drug Conjugate)\, and APC (Antibody Peptide Conjugate) therapeutics. The presentation will focus on three key areas: \n\nLC-MS/MS\, ELISA\, and Gyrolab as comparable bioanalytical methods for ADC and antibody PK analysis\nTransgenic mouse PK as a rapid screening approach\nADME screening strategies for peptides\, linkers\, and payloads in ADC programs.\n\nThese case studies demonstrate how an integrated DMPK/ADME platform can accelerate preclinical screening and improve decision-making for early-stage large-molecule programs. While bioanalysis of biologics and conjugated therapeutics presents unique challenges due to matrix complexity\, molecular heterogeneity\, and evolving analytical requirements\, innovative bioanalytical strategies can generate robust\, reliable data that enable confident candidate selection and successful program progression. \nWhat you will learn: \n\nUnderstand the strengths and applications of LC-MS/MS\, ELISA\, and Gyrolab for consistent pharmacokinetic analysis of antibodies and ADC\nLearn how transgenic mouse pharmacokinetic models can serve as a rapid and efficient approach for early candidate screening\nExplore ADME screening strategies for peptides\, linkers\, and payloads to support the discovery and optimization of ADC programs\n\nREGISTER» \nHosted by:

SUMMARY:The Massive Scale of GLP-1s: Evolving Health\, Healthcare and Markets
DESCRIPTION:GLP-1 receptor agonists. Never before has one therapeutic class promised such a seismic shift in the health of Americans—or the U.S. and global economies. Already established as cornerstone therapies in diabetes and obesity\, Novo Nordisk’s semaglutide and Eli Lilly’s tirzepatide bring in billions of dollars each year. And the drugs are only expanding their reach: semaglutide has also been approved to lower cardiovascular risk and tirzepatide for sleep apnea\, with ongoing research showing promise in treating conditions as far afield as addiction\, Alzheimer’s disease and cancer. \nSo it’s no wonder the class is having a larger\, structural effect on U.S. health systems and consumer markets\, from a rise in direct-to-consumer purchasing options to debates over pricing and coverage. How can companies—both established providers of GLP-1s and those looking to break onto the exploding market—navigate this unprecedented territory? What will it mean for patients? \nThis panel will focus on understanding how the incredible health gains driven by GLP-1s can reach as many people as possible and how these drugs might evolve the broader healthcare system. \nREGISTER» \nHosted by:

SUMMARY:How to Build a Working AI System in Life Sciences
DESCRIPTION:Everyone in life sciences has been told to use AI. Most have not been shown properly how. \n​Due to popular demand\, we’re hosting this session in person in SF. This is a 90-minute hands-on session for life sciences professionals who want to actually understand what AI systems do and leave having built one. \n​We’ll cover the mental model that makes everything else click: how AI systems process information\, why the tools you use behave the way they do\, and how to write instructions that produce reliable outputs. Then you’ll build a working assistant (and not agent – we’ll tell you why not) around a task from your own workflow. No coding experience required. \n​Bring a laptop\, your LLM of choice\, and one problem you’d like AI to help with. You’ll leave with something that works. \n​Who this is for: R&D professionals\, clinicians\, post-docs\, research scientists\, and anyone in life sciences who works with AI tools and wants to understand them better. \nREGISTER» \nHosted by:

SUMMARY:The Regulatory Foundation: Getting It Right Before You Build
DESCRIPTION:For early-stage MedTech founders\, regulatory strategy isn’t a late-stage checkbox\, it’s a foundational decision that shapes everything downstream\, from your FDA pathway to your funding story to how you eventually get paid. \nIn this fireside conversation\, former FDA reviewer Sam Murray walks through the decisions that matter most before you build. We’ll cover how your intended use and your own claims define your regulatory reality\, how to read your risk class and map the right pathway (510(k)\, De Novo\, or PMA)\, the low-cost early moves that get you FDA’s read before you’re locked in\, and what SBIR/STTR reviewers actually want to see in your commercialization plan. We’ll close with why regulatory and reimbursement timing should be planned together and how getting it right early is the cheapest course-correction there is. \nBring your questions for a live audience Q&A to wrap. \nREGISTER» \nAbout the Speakers\nSam Murray\, Head of Regulatory & Quality\, PRIA Healthcare\nSam leads PRIA’s regulatory affairs and quality division\, providing strategic leadership to life sciences and medical device companies navigating complex regulatory pathways and quality system challenges.

SUMMARY:Regulatory Shifts Ahead: Preparing for FDA Changes and EU Pharmaceutical Reform
DESCRIPTION:Regulatory change is underway on two fronts. FDA review practice has evolved meaningfully over recent review cycles\, and the EU has finalized a sweeping reform of its pharmaceutical legislation that has not yet entered into force. For sponsors filing an IND with the FDA\, preparing an EMA submission\, or planning a Phase II expansion into the EU\, this session offers an early look at what’s changing and how to get ahead of it. \nIn this session\, William Lian (BioDuro) covers the current FDA IND landscape: where IND submission changes\, how Clinical Holds get resolved\, and why getting CMC right early is the key to avoiding them. William will also introduce FDA’s evolving expectations for nonclinical development\, including initiatives such as the increased use of New Approach Methodologies (NAMs). \nMiranda van Bodegom (DADA Consultancy) turns to the EU\, where the change is legal\, not procedural. She unpacks several developments under what EMA itself has called “the most significant overhaul of the regulatory framework in over two decades”. Miranda will introduce upcoming changes covering development and registration phases\, pharmacovigilance and regulatory aspects\, the new approach to environmental risk\, and the expanded the use of Master Files. \nJoin BioDuro and DADA Consultancy to find out what’s changing\, and what sponsors should be preparing for. \nWhat you will learn: \n\nWhy FDA Clinical Holds happen\, and how CMC readiness prevents them\nWhether FDA’s NAMs shift changes your preclinical testing plan\nWhether you qualify for a Master File under the EU’s pharmaceutical legislation reform\nHow to navigate the European “green legislation”\nHow to position your pipeline now\, ahead of these changes taking full effect\n\nREGISTER» \nHosted by:

SUMMARY:Small Molecule Human PK and Dose Projection
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a comprehensive\, full-day workshop dedicated to the fundamentals and latest advancements in human pharmacokinetics (PK) and dose prediction for small molecules. This intensive event brings together leading industry experts to share scientific principles and practical strategies for translating in vitro and preclinical data to project human efficacious dose. \nThe sessions will first focus on fundamental PK parameter predictions\, covering topics such as human clearance in vitro-to-in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE)\, allometric scaling approaches\, human volume of distribution prediction\, and oral absorption\, alongside an in-depth discussion of transporter-mediated hepatobiliary and renal clearance. The workshop will also cover the integration of predicted human PK parameters and PKPD relationship to project human efficacious dose using modeling approaches\, ranging from classic compartmental models to physiologically-based PK (PBPK) and systems pharmacology models. The afternoon sessions will pivot toward human PK and dose prediction for emerging new modalities\, such as peptides and strategic design of First-in-Human (FIH) studies. Concluding with an interactive panel discussion featuring all speakers\, this workshop offers DMPK scientists\, pharmacologists\, and translational researchers a valuable platform to gain actionable insights and discuss the challenges of modern small molecule and new modality drug discovery and development. \nREGISTER» \nHosted by:
