IQ Induction WG: Focus on CYP3A4 mRNA InVitro Response Thresholds, Variability, & Clinical Relevance

This IQ Induction Working Group webinar will focus on the collation and review of a large set of in vitro and clinical CYP3A induction data aimed at understanding drug interaction interpretation and risk assessment as they relate to the current guidelines from Regulatory agencies.

This webinar will take the audience through the data that lead to key recommendations with respect to donor number, criteria for … Morecharacterizing positive and negative in vitro induction including the 2-fold cut-off, the value of negative controls, and finally indexing response to prototypical inducers. The intent of this webinar series is to promote discussion and collaboration among industry peers. This is a public forum so we encourage you to share this information with interested parties, you do not need to be an IQ member to register for these webinars.
