Overview:

New Directions, Practical Challenges, Possible Solutions, and Regulatory Approaches in the Development of Pharmaceutical Agents.

This conference, co-sponsored by the FDA and the Heart Rhythm Society, will bring together FDA, PMDA, industry, academic, and global regulatory speakers in an open forum.  The sessions will include in-depth discussion of the evolution of drug development, cardiac QT issues, cardiovascular safety, and strategies for analyzing and mitigating potential risks to improve cardiac safety analysis during drug development.  Featuring close interaction with FDA policy-makers and industry and academic experts, this has become the premier conference for keeping current in this field.

Featured Session Topics:
•  Preclinical Testing and QT/Torsade de Pointes Assessment
•  Thorough QT Study - Key Issues
•  ICH E14 Issues Under Consideration
•  CV Safety Unrelated to QT
•  Debate: Automatic QT Assessment Will Replace Manual and Semi-Automatic QT Techniques for the Thorough QT Study
•  Abstract Presentations



Learning Objectives:
At the conclusion of this meeting, participants should be able to:
• Recognize the state-of–the-art approach to performing the thorough QT study, including novel trial designs, the statistical analysis of the positive control agent, the definition of adequate assay sensitivity, and issues of multiplicity
• Describe how to evaluate drugs for CV risk
• Explain how new preclinical or clinical biomarkers can gain regulatory acceptance;
• Identify how to optimally use preclinical data to assess CV risk
• Discuss the use of automatic QT Measurements
• Explain the major issues in clinical CV safety evaluation.


Target Audience:
Who Should Attend
• Academic scientists
• Industry management
• Clinical project physicians
• Quality assurance directors
• Preclinical/discovery scientists
• ECG safety data managers
• ECG lab and equipment vendors
• Regulatory specialists
• Clinical project management
