Applied BioMath, LLC to Sponsor and Present at the ICI Boston Summit

CONCORD, Mass., March 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Applied BioMath (www.appliedbiomath.com), the industry-leader in applying mechanistic modeling, simulation, and analysis to de-risk drug research and development, today announced their participation at the 4th annual ICI Boston Summit being held March 19-21, 2018 in Boston, MA.

John Burke, PhD, Co-Founder, President, and CEO of Applied BioMath will present a talk titled "Predicting marketed PD-1 dosing and optimal PD-1 x TIM-3 dual targeting approaches in immuno-oncology" on Tuesday, March 20, 2018 at 9:30 a.m. In this presentation, Dr. Burke will present an example of how interrogating a systems pharmacology model of the co-modulation inhibitory receptors PD-1 and TIM-3 in immuno-oncology helped to assess risk by performing an in silico differentiation for a bispecific vs. FDC. He will also analyze why Bristol-Myers Squibb and Merck's anti-PD-1s  therapeutic antibodies have similar dosing regimens when their affinities differ by two orders of magnitude, and provide predictions of the best-in-class profile for a PD-1 and TIM-3 dual antagonist biologic(s).

"We are very excited to present at the ICI Boston Summit for the first time this year," said John Burke, PhD, Co-Founder, President, and CEO of Applied BioMath. "This presentation establishes that developing and interrogating a systems pharmacology model provides early quantitative decision making guidance for project teams."

Applied BioMath utilizes its Model-Aided Drug Invention (MADI) approach to de-risk projects, accelerate the discovery and development of best-in-class therapeutics, and impact critical decisions in the continuum from preclinical exploration to clinical research. MADI leverages mechanistic pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) and systems pharmacology which quantitatively integrates knowledge about therapeutics with an understanding of mechanism of action in the context of human disease mechanisms.
