Session 6: Bridging Statistics and Pharmacometrics: Informing Drug Development Decisions Through Model-Based Approaches
Session Chair(s)
Frank Bretz, PhD
Distinguished Quantitative Research Scientist
Novartis , Switzerland
Clinical drug development remains a mostly empirical, costly enterprise, in which decision-making is often based on qualitative assessment of risk-benefit, without systematically leveraging all the relevant data collected throughout the development program. Quantification of risk and combination of information from different sources across time using model-based approaches may modernize drug research towards a better informed drug development process. Such a shift in paradigm requires a close collaboration between biostatisticians and pharmacometricians. These disciplines share many common quantitative elements and are much more specialized and offer many capabilities that each individual discipline does not have. Speakers will share their experiences on opportunities and challenges when fostering the new model-based drug development paradigm in their organizations.
