The Principal Scientist CP Leader develops compound-specific Clinical Pharmacology strategies for supported programs, including interactions with regulatory agencies, and serves as the CP Leader on cross-functional compound teams and within CPP (e.g., Pharmacometrics). The Principal Scientist independently leads the day-to-day clinical pharmacology activities for programs within the Portfolio and Lifecycle Management (PALM) organization, focused on established brands and post-approval development opportunities.

You will be responsible for:

  • Devising the clinical pharmacology and model informed drug development strategy via application of quantitative methods to integrate knowledge of nonclinical data (e.g., metabolism, BCS classification, pharmacology, safety), PK, PD (e.g., biomarker, efficacy, and/or safety), patient characteristics, disease states, competitive landscape, and drug interactions to influence go/no go decisions, support sub-population, dose and dosage regimen selection, and optimize study designs throughout drug development. Translate quantitative knowledge into strategic opportunities to influence development along the model-informed drug development principles.
  • Planning and performing, or providing oversight, for appropriate analyses (e.g., non-compartmental, population and/or modelling and simulation analysis of PK and/or PD data) of preclinical-clinical translation and dose/exposure-response relationships, to guide dose regimen and optimize study design.
  • Planning, summarization and interpretation of results of PK and PK/PD analyses with respect to their impact on a development program and clinical use.
  • Planning and delivery of scientifically robust and efficient clinical pharmacology strategies for development candidates.
  • Carries out functional responsibilities in accordance with applicable SOPs, regulatory requirements and Johnson & Johnson Credo principles.

  • Participating in the evaluation of potential business development opportunities.
  • Contributing to the knowledge of clinical pharmacology, model informed drug development, analysis methodology and overall drug development process, including regulatory guidance, and methods in modelling and simulation by engaging with the scientific community (e.g., publishing, presenting at meetings, participating in special interest groups within professional societies, etc.) and identify new opportunities for applied scientific and technical advancement within the department.
  • Working effectively in team environments, managing CP deliverables in accordance with timelines and overall project goals.

Qualifications / Requirements:

  • Understanding of advanced analysis methods (e.g., population analysis, PBPK, QSP) and modeling tools (e.g., NONMEM, R, Gastroplus, Simcyp, Winnonlin, Matlab) required
  • Understanding of overall process of drug development including model informed drug development (MIDD) and the overall pharmaceutical R&D process required.
  • Working knowledge of regulatory requirements and guidelines required.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
