Are you familiar with terms such as clearance, volume of distribution, absorption rate and elimination half-life, but find yourself seeking a better and/or deeper comprehension of their implications, applications and relevance in drug development? Then join the 12th and 13th of November 2025 in Antwerp for a 2-day basic pharmacokinetics course.

This course is tailored for you to delve into the fundamental aspects of pharmacokinetics.

You will explore:

Physiological Processes: Gain thorough insights into drug Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and Elimination (ADME), defining the journey and fate of a new chemical entity or therapeutic protein within the body.
Basic PK Principles: Understand central concepts such as clearance, volume of distribution, plasma protein binding, first-order kinetics and elimination half-life and how these properties can be used to describe drug behavior. Establish a solid foundation in the principles that underlie drug kinetics and the intricate relationship between the body and administered drugs.
Derivation of PK Parameters: Learn the methodologies behind calculating key pharmacokinetic parameters, essential for interpreting drug behaviour.
Utilizing PK Data in Drug Development: Grasp the significance of PK/pharmacodynamic (PD) data when designing (non-) clinical studies, selecting the first-in-human starting dose, or preparing a drug submission dossier.

Led by a team of seasoned experts in the field, this course offers a perfect blend of theoretical concepts, practical applications and hands-on exercises. Whether you are already immersed in drug development, a researcher seeking deeper insights, or a professional desiring a stronger grasp of PK, this course is tailored for anyone seeking a thorough understanding of drug kinetics. Completion of this course will empower you to understand, interpret, communicate and challenge gathered PK data.
