The next PSI Toxicology SIG webinar is on the 12th December at 14:00 GMT.
Thomas Jaki is presenting about “Optimal designs for non-compartmental PK studies”.
In traditional PK/PD trials, pharmacokinetics (PK) is investigated in the satellite group of animals, and the pharmacodynamics (PD) is investigated in the study group of animals. The new blood sampling method of microsampling opens up the opportunity to investigate both PK and PD in the same animals. To avoid excessive burden on the animals from the required blood sampling, sparse sampling schemes are typically utilized. Motivated by this application, this talk introduces a procedure to choose an optimal sparse sampling scheme and sampling time points using non-compartmental methods but which can be applied to further settings beyond this. We discuss how robust designs can be obtained and we apply and evaluate the approach to a range of scenarios to give an example of how it may be implemented. The results are compared to optimal designs for model based PK.
PSI Training Course: Introduction to Machine Learning
This course is aimed at clinical trial statisticians who are new to or with limited experience of machine learning. Attendees will learn about a range of topics in machine learning, including practical sessions in R.
Joint PSI/EFSPI Visualisation SIG 'Wonderful Wednesday' Webinars
Our monthly webinar explores examples of innovative data visualisations relevant to our day to day work. Each month a new dataset is provided from a clinical trial or other relevant example, and participants are invited to submit a graphic that communicates interesting and relevant characteristics of the data.
The event will open with an overview on drug development in women’s health from a clinician perspective. This talk is followed by talks about statistical challenges when planning IVF studies and analysing the menstrual cycles.
This webinar will provide an overview of surrogacy for licensing and reimbursement. In turn, the need of extensions of the SPIRIT and CONSORT statement will be defined and outlined, with case studies to support.
Joint PSI/EFSPI Pre-Clinical SIG Webinar: Virtual Control Groups in Toxicity Studies
Lea Vaas will present how replacement of concurrent control animals by Virtual Control Groups (VCGs) in systemic toxicity studies may help in contributing to the 3R's principle of animal experimentation: Reduce, Refine, Replace.
Joint PSI/EFSPI Data Science SIG Webinar: Developing Digital Measures (Digital Biomarkers) in Drug Development – insights from Mobilise D consortium
We will share a brief overview of what Mobilise D is and why it is an important step stone in the development of digital biomarkers, and how Mobilise D outputs can be relevant for you.
This networking event is aimed at statisticians that are new to the pharmaceutical industry who wish to meet colleagues from different companies and backgrounds.
