The 2021 APN Satellite Workshop

<Title of the workshop>
Pharmacometric modelling & simulation with Pumas.jl
< Dates and Time >
November 21 (Sun.) – 24 (Wed.), 2021
11:00 – 15:00 (GMT+8, Taiwan time)


<Target audience >
This workshop is designed for beginners and relatively experienced individuals dealing with clinical pharmacology related data analytics in their day to day work.
Individuals interested in performing Non-compartmental analysis on their clinical data or use basic or advanced non-linear mixed effects models to capture the variability in drug pharmacokinetics or response and the contribution of covariate effects and/or simulate new dosing scenarios or clinical trials will find this workshop interesting.

< Workshop sponsor >
Pumas-AI, Inc.

< Workshop faculty >
Name(s): Dr. Vijay Ivaturi
Affiliations: University of Maryland School of Pharmacy
Bio: Vijay Ivaturi is a clinical pharmacologist and pharmacometrician by training and has worked on multiple drug development and clinical therapeutic programs. His primary research focus is on developing tools and methods to bridge the gap between decision-makers and the scientists, with a special focus on clinical therapeutics in paediatrics. Some of the dosing algorithms he has developed are currently being used in paediatric hospitals around the country. Vijay is passionate about democratizing tools and education for clinical and pharmaceutical research. He is the co-founder and developer of the Pumas software and is creating the next generation tooling for pharmacometrics. He obtained his doctorate in experimental and clinical pharmacology from the University of Minnesota, which he followed with a post-doctoral fellowship in pharmacometrics at Uppsala University in Sweden.

< Workshop overview >
Pharmaceutical Modelling and Simulation (Pumas) is a domain-specific extension of the Julia differential equation solver libraries for performing analyses of pharmacometric models.
We will start by showing users how to implement PK/PD models with complex dosing schedules and incorporating population models.
Then we will turn to the process of estimating population parameters from data.
Next, the capability of Pumas to perform common pre-clinical and clinical data analytics work flows such as Non-compartmental analysis (NCA), In vitro- in vivo correlation (IVIVC), Bio-equivalence (BE) and Clinical Trial Design (CTS) will be introduced.
This workshop will be a mix of demonstration and hands-on work where participants will be able to download the Pumas software and perform the analysis in real-time.
At the end of the workshop, participants will have an overview of the Pumas toolkit and its utility in modern age computing.

< Workshop Learning Objectives >
At the end of the workshop, participants will:
  • 1. Gain an overview of the Pumas modelling ecosystem
  • 2. Learn how to perform Non-compartmental Analysis in Pumas
  • 3. Learn how to simulate using non-linear mixed effects models in Pumas
  • 4. Learn the different estimation methods and perform data analysis using Pumas NLME
  • 5. Learn how to perform post-processing of results for reporting
