Join Pharmaron from September 21st to 24th at ISSX 2025

Pharmaron will be exhibiting at the 14th ISSX International Meeting from September 21–24, 2025, in Chicago, IL. at the Hilton Chicago. Pharmaron offers an end-to-end solution from discovery through clinical development. Our comprehensive expertise in Carbon-14 and tritium radiolabelling for ADME studies, including QWBA tissue distribution and in vitro cross-species comparative metabolism data, provides critical insights for selecting toxicology species, predicting compound distribution and metabolism, and bridging non-clinical and clinical studies. Early-stage screening and regulatory-compliant toxicology studies seamlessly transition from lead optimization to IND-enabling studies.

Please schedule a meeting with our team below to discuss your requirements and challenges related to hit identification, lead optimization, candidate selection, formulation, in vitro /in vivo profiling, DMPK, IND submission, or clinical development.

Talk:

1:45 PM in the Exhibit Hall Presentation Area

  • Marie Croft, Scientific Director of Radiolabelled Sciences, Presenting: Accelerator Mass Spectrometry in Drug Development: Clinical Applications and Technological Advances

    Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) is increasingly used in drug development to detect low levels of radiolabeled (14C) compounds, especially in clinical studies such as human absorption, metabolism, and excretion (hAME) and absolute bioavailability (hABA). Initially adopted for drugs with long half-lives or low exposure, AMS has gained broader acceptance following industry recommendations and FDA guidance. It is particularly valuable when conventional methods like liquid scintillation counting lack sensitivity, such as in studies with low plasma concentrations of parent drugs or metabolites.

    In this presentation, we demonstrate the clinical applications and technological advancements of AMS, including its evolution from early graphite-based systems to the latest low-energy Ionplus LEA platforms now operational across Pharmaron’s global network.

Posters in Continental B/C :

Tuesday, Sept. 23 Posters in Continental B/C
