We are building comprehensive Model-Informed Drug Development (MIDD) capabilities in-house to create reusable platform models across our oncology portfolio. We seek a talented and motivated expert to develop advanced Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP) models in oncology that enable Virtual Population simulations. You will act as a MIDD expert for oncology and integrate this knowledge into Clinical Pharmacology strategy for related development programs.
This means:

  • Develop QSP platform models for multiple oncology mechanisms including:
    • Immune checkpoint inhibitors (IO/ICI) across colorectal, lung, and ovarian cancers
    • Antibody-drug conjugates across lung, ovarian, and colorectal cancers
    • T-cell engagers and bispecifics/trispecifics in multiple myeloma
    • CAR-T therapies in hematologic malignancies
  • Create and optimize Virtual Populations to capture patient heterogeneity and support clinical trial design
  • Implement new methods to enhance QSP-driven MIDD, including AI/machine learning augmentation for literature screening, model drafting, and virtual population optimization
  • Deliver practical results that inform dose and regimen selection, optimal combinations, therapy duration, and study design for active development programs
  • Work as part of a coordinated team under the oversight of a senior pharmacometrician within the PMx Oncology Group

This is how you can make a difference:

  • PhD or Master's degree with extensive experience in Quantitative Systems Pharmacology or Systems Biology model development,
  • Proven scientific track record and practical experience in several of the following areas

· Statistical modeling

· Modeling with differential equations

· Scripting languages (R, Matlab, Python)

· Drug development

  • Critical thinking and self-reflective
  • Persistent and resilient
  • Ability to connect unrelated concept and to generate original or unique ideas
  • Fluency in English required, German would be a plus
