Xzencis participates in De-risking Drug Development Webinar

Mölnlycke, Sweden: – Dr. Steffen Ernst,  founder and Managing Director of pharma and life sciences safety consultant Xzencis, will be one of the featured speakers at an upcoming Australian-hosted webinar.

The free to register webinar De-risking Drug Development will be hosted on the Zoom platforms on Thursday December 15, 2022, commencing at 1030 hrs AEDT (UTC +11). It is the final session in the series of Investing in Australian Biotech webinars organised by Melbourne-based specialist healthcare growth fund Horizon 3 Healthcare.

Translational safety imperative

Dr. Ernst will highlight the need for a translational safety approach to drug development  based on Xzencis experience in helping pharma companies develop integrated safety strategies and practices, allowing drug development to move from pre-clinic through to market seamlessly.

The need for translational safety was first highlighted in the 1960s with the infamous thalidomide drug scandal, where a sedative developed for a different purpose was transitioned to treat morning sickness in pregnant women but without translational testing and with disastrous consequences.

Dr Ernst will be one of three panelists on the webinar, along with Dr. Sandra Petty, CEO and founder of the non-profit Center for Biomedical Research Transparency that advocates for transparent reporting of biomedical research, and Wim Vos, CEO of Radiomics, which uses AI to unearth the data embedded in oncology and other medical images.

The session will be hosted and moderated by H3 Healthcare senior consultant Dr. Tam Nguyen.
