    PK and ADA Assays for Biologics

    23 – 25 June 2025, live online training

    Summary

    Biologics continue to be a steadily growing component of the pharmaceutical industry. Large molecule therapeutics requires a different perspective on the assays needed to support development through preclinical and clinical testing. This webinar is designed to offer both a broad overview and detailed discussion of specific issues to address when developing and validating PK and ADA assays for biologics. The course offers:

    • Interactive, Real-World Applications: Practical troubleshooting sessions and real-world case studies to apply knowledge to current challenges.
    • Emerging Trends: Coverage of the latest updates in regulatory guidance (e.g., M10) and innovations in bioanalytical methods.
    • Advanced Techniques: Learn about cutting-edge technologies like BEAD (Biotin-Drug Extraction and Acid Dissociation) for resolving drug interference and electrochemiluminescence using MSD for assay sensitivity and efficiency.
