Hayley and Mark had excellent time last week.
No mention of any talks or meetings or contracts to be considered.
Just looking forward to next years jolly.
📸 We had an excellent week at #ASCPT2025 last week in Washington.
The focus of this year's meeting was Patient Centricity and how Clinical Pharmacology has a key role to play, whether that be in better design of trials, putting patients first, and considering quality of life in trial participation, starkly exemplified by Roberta Smith, CNMT's (Alagille Syndrome Alliance) personal story and her message in rare disease advocacy.
The meeting was kicked off by an inspiring talk from Anthony Fauci who described his often non-linear career path and how ‘patient centricity’ for him in his distinguished career was irrespective of politics, whether it was a single patient in his consulting room, or the 100’s-millions of patients in his role as Chief Medical Advisor.
Quantitative Pharmacology and MIDD have a big part to play here, particularly in optimising dose, whether it be guiding step-up dosing or Optimal Biological Dose, for maximising efficacy and minimising potential harm through toxicity or because of medication discontinuations. We recently wrote more on this topic in our blog series, which you can read here: https://lnkd.in/eekir8Ft
As a community, we need to think hard about how these techniques are applied AND, just as importantly, how they are communicated with patients and between Clinical Pharmacology practitioners. Look forward to discussing new ideas over the next year - until next time ASCPT!
🛫 Next leg, #PAGE2025! ☀️ It will be interesting to see how the themes coincide.
