Job Description

We are seeking an experienced Clinical Pharmacology Consultant to advise on subcutaneous (SC) versus intravenous (IV) dosing strategy, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD), bioavailability interpretation, and regulatory justification for upcoming interactions with the FDA.

This is a part-time consulting role, approximately 5–7 hours/week for a few months and is strictly advisory, with no formulation or clinical operations responsibilities.

Responsibilities

  • Review and interpret PK/PD and bioavailability data comparing SC and IV administration
  • Assess SC bioavailability performance (poor, moderate, or good) based on available datasets
  • Determine the appropriate SC dose using PK analyses, relative exposure, and IV–SC comparisons
  • Develop a clear scientific and regulatory rationale to support SC dose selection
  • Advise on data gaps, next steps, and overall readiness for FDA engagement
  • Support preparation for FDA discussions, ensuring the dose-selection justification is clear, defensible, and aligned with expectations
  • Provide expert guidance on bioavailability implications without performing formulation development

Qualifications

  • PhD, PharmD, or MD in Clinical Pharmacology, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Pharmacokinetics, or related discipline
  • Equivalent advanced training or significant industry experience may be considered for exceptional candidates
  • Direct experience selecting SC doses from IV data, presenting justification to the FDA, and obtaining FDA clearance
  • Strong background in clinical pharmacology, PK/PD, and dose–exposure relationships
  • Deep understanding of SC drug delivery and absorption variability
  • Ability to assess relative bioavailability and interpret complex PK datasets
  • Experience developing dose-selection strategies when transitioning a product from IV to SC administration
  • Familiarity with FDA expectations for PK justification, exposure bridging, and regulatory rationale
  • Experience with hyaluronidase-enabled SC delivery preferred
  • Ability to provide concise strategic recommendations based on limited datasets
  • Strong communication skills, especially in translating PK findings into clear regulatory arguments
