Session 6BC: What, Where, and How: Biomarkers Inform Disease Targets, Biodistribution, and Function of Oligonucleotide Therapeutics
Session Chair(s)
Aimee L. Jackson, PhD
Chief Scientific Officer
Atalanta Therapeutics, United States
This session will present preclinical and clinical data on the identification and validation of biomarkers for oligonucleotide therapeutics. Discussions will include methods to identify pharmacodynamic biomarkers, use of biomarkers to define PK/PD and dose-response relationships, the application of biomarkers to establish mechanistic proof-of-concept and guide dose optimization, and how biomarkers can inform disease status and patient enrichment.
