Bringing Practical Applications of Endogenous Biomarkers for Drug Transporters a Step Closer: Current Status and Future Perspectives

An ISSX Virtual Workshop Event | February 28 - March 1, 2024

Workshop Overview

This workshop was organized through the efforts of the ISSX Transporters Focus Group and was organized by Drs. Aleksandra Galetin, Xinning Yang, Bhagwat Prasad, Xiaoyan Chu, Hong Shen, Pei Feng Shawn Tan (student member), Mitesh Patel, Eva Gil Berglund, and Chitra Saran.

This virtual workshop brought together scientists from academia, industry, and regulatory agencies to share their research findings, experience, and expert views on endogenous biomarkers for drug transporters, an active research area with rapid advances in recent years.

The three-day workshop covered several important topics in these areas:

  • application of transporter biomarker in drug development,

  • understanding transporter function changes in specific populations facilitated by biomarker assessment,

  • methods to identify transporter biomarkers, and

  • emerging biomarkers of efflux transporters.  

Each session of the workshop consisted of presentations from several expert speakers followed by roundtable discussions, with case study presentations incorporated into one session to showcase the experience and advances in using transporter endogenous biomarkers during drug development. In addition, there was an interactive virtual poster session, which was selected from the pool of abstracts from trainees and industry attendees.

You can purchase all presentation slides and recordings on our Online Learning Center.
