2011 Doctoral Seminar Series College of Pharmacy & Allied Health Professions- “Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics in Drug Discovery and Development”

Evaluation of Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics (DMPK) properties are an important part in the development of a new chemical entity (NCE).  In the preclinical stage of drug development, DMPK studies are routinely evaluated in both animal and human in vitro models and in vivo animal species.  The presentation will focus on DMPK studies conducted in early drug discovery stage to select NCE with potential to be developed as a clinical candidate (CC).  With selection of the CC, confirmatory DMPK studies are conducted to assess ability of the CC to alter the disease state as proof of concept (POC) studies, including human mass balance (ADME) studies.  Human ADME study evaluates the metabolites generated in humans and determines the safety profile of the metabolites (MIST*guidelines by FDA) in various preclinical animal species.  Such ADME studies of a new drug molecule conducted in rats, dogs and in humans will be presented with MIST guidelines in perspective.
