Welcome to 2024 GMP Symposium
Session 1
Replacing and refining in vivo pharmacokinetic experiments
Chairs: C. Amara (Sanofi), F. Gattacceca (COMPO, CRCM, Aix-Marseille university)
This session will explore strategies to replace living animals with virtual equivalents, with more human-relevant in-vitro methods, but also to develop innovative bioanalycal techniques to increase the sensitivity of quantification of protein drugs in plasma and tissues.
1- Vict3R consortium : Coming soon
2- M. Dupré (Sanofi): Coming soon
Session 2
New modalities of drug administration
Chairs: S. Klieber (Sanofi), L. Laplanche (Abbvie), C. Troisi (EsQlabs)
Join us to learn more about how to overcome PK challenge of new modalities ((e.g., LNP, radiopharmaceuticals, PROTACs) and how these innovations collectively aim to improve patient outcomes and expand the therapeutic landscape.
1- S. Guerif (Sanofi): Coming soon
2- Z. Fang (Merck Healthcare KGaA): Coming soon
3- Q. Nguyen (Novartis): Coming soon
Coffee Break and Poster Session
Session 3
New biomarkers for translational studies
Chairs: E. Chatelut (Oncopole-Toulouse University), N. Perdaems (Syneos Health), A. Martinez (Toulouse university)
Biomarkers and PK are complementary to understand mechanism of action and adverse effects of biologics. Moreover, use of biomarkers dynamics and PK could significantly reduce the large delay between treatment onset and response. The relation between early biomarker dynamics and anticancer drug PK can be used to individualize anticancer treatment.
1- N. Van Erp (Radboud University Medical Center): Coming soon
2- A. Delmas (Laboratoires Servier): Coming soon
Students Poster Blitz
Chairs: Coming soon
We welcome student abstracts in the field of pharmacology (ADME, PK, PD, PBPK, DDI). All submitted abstracts will be reviewed by the selection committee and chosen to be part of a poster presentation and short-oral presentation. A “Best Student presentation” awards will be announced during the GMP Congress 2025.
The program is open to all students at the Undergraduate, Masters, and Doctoral levels. Presenters must be present during the congress.

Beyond a Covariate: Towards Sex-Based
Chairs: F. Gallais (Pharmetheus), A. Puszkiel (Cochin University Hospital), C. Troisi (ESQlabs), M. Le Merdy (Simulations Plus)
This session explores the critical need to move beyond treating sex as a simple covariate in drug development for women. We will discuss the differences in drug response between sexes, the considerations for drug use during pregnancy and lactation, and the importance of studying sex differences to create more effective and safer medications for women.

Innovations in Drug Transporters
Chairs: M. De Sousa Mendes (Certara), O. Nicolas (Sanofi)
Discover the latest advancements in drug transport in this captivating session. We will explore how albumin-mediated drug uptake via organic anion transporters is a reality, and its implications for predicting active renal secretion clearance. Additionally, we will examine the crucial role of pre-incubation in these processes and discuss current and future regulatory perspectives. Join us for an in-depth and interactive discussion on these innovations that could support pharmacokinetic predictions and improve drug developments

One Step Aside
Médicament et philosophie
Chairs: E. Chatelut (Oncopole-Toulouse University), I. Deprez (Certara)
In this presentation, we will explore the current and potential roles of AI in drug R&D and how it redefines the way scientists integrate data generation with technological applications and wet-lab validation. We will deep-dive into the scientific implications, impacts on researchers, and the research process itself. A key question we will address is whether AI represents merely another tool or signifies a more profound shift in scientific inquiry.
