作者簡介
Pritam S. Sahota, Global ToxPath LLC, Kennewick, Washington, USA,
has extensive experience in toxicologic pathology and drug development
within the framework of nonclinical safety assessment of pharmaceuticals.
Dr. Sahota was previously Executive Director and Head of Pathology,
Preclinical Safety, at Novartis Pharmaceuticals, East Hanover, New Jersey.
He obtained his veterinary medicine (BVSc) and veterinary pathology
degrees (MSc and PhD) from Punjab Agricultural University, India. He
is a diplomate of the American Board of Toxicology. After receiving his
PhD in 1976, he started working as a toxicologic pathologist at Dawson
Research Corporation (DRC), Orlando, Florida, a contract research organization
involved in the preclinical safety evaluation of drugs and chemicals.
At DRC, he received increasing responsibility over the next 10 years
(toxicologic pathologist, senior toxicologic pathologist, and scientific director).
As a scientific director, he was responsible for the scientific aspects of
pathology as well as toxicology at DRC. While working briefly for Dynamac
Corporation, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina (1986-1987), he conducted
retrospective scientific audits of 23 NTP carcinogenicity studies and
participated in discussions with the representatives of NTP, FDA, and EPA
to review the results of scientific audits of over 200 NTP carcinogenicity
studies. In 1987, he joined Ciba-Geigy Pharmaceuticals in New Jersey as
Head/Manager of pathologists in preclinical safety and was also responsible
for establishing pathology peer review, quality control, and scheduling
systems. He continued to work primarily in this position with increasing
responsibilities at Ciba-Geigy and then Novartis Pharmaceuticals (after
Ciba-Sandoz merger in 1997) to become director and eventually Executive
Director and Head of pathology. During this time, he also served as an international
project team representative for a number of successfully marketed
CNS, immunosuppression, diabetes, and cardiovascular drugs, including
Diovan, which eventually became one of the 15 all-time, best-selling prescription
drugs. He also held an adjunct academic appointment of Assistant
Professor at the University of Medicine and Dentistry, New Jersey, for
8 years. He successfully led several global preclinical safety initiatives at
Novartis, including patient centricity, review of best practices in cardiotoxicity
and ocular toxicity, as well as evaluation of rodent carcinogenicity
potential based on noncarcinogenicity data to minimize future delays in
regulatory submissions. Since retirement from Novartis Pharmaceuticals
in 2012, Dr Sahota has been the President of Global ToxPath LLC located
in Kennewick, WA, USA (Toxicologic Pathology Consultancy). As lead editor,
he published the following books with CRC Press/Taylor & Francis:
(1) Toxicologic Pathology: Nonclinical Safety Assessment (First Edition,
2013); (2) Toxicologic Pathology: Nonclinical Safety Assessment (Second
Edition, 2018); (3) The Illustrated Dictionary of Toxicologic Pathology and
Safety Science (First Edition, 2019); (4) CT-NCDD: Volume 1 (due to be
published in 2020); (5) Road to Greatness (due to be published in 2020);
(6) Toxicologic Pathology: A Primer (due to be published in 2021); and
(7) Toxicologic Pathology: An Atlas (due to be published in 2022).
Philip Bentley is a principal consultant at Toxicodynamix International
LLC. He studied biochemistry at the University of Hull, UK, graduating
with a BSc in 1970 and a PhD in 1974. He had postdoctoral fellowships at
the Universities of Basel, Switzerland, and Mainz, Germany. His postdoctoral
research centered upon formation and inactivation of reactive metabolites
and the enzymes involved in the metabolism of foreign compounds. In
1979, he joined the Investigative Toxicology group (known as Cell Biology)
in the Toxicology Department of Ciba-Geigy, Basel, Switzerland, and
remained with the company, later Novartis, until 2014. In these 35 years,
he held various management positions in Europe and the United States
with responsibility for Investigative Toxicology; Drug Metabolism; Drug
Metabolism and Toxicology; Preclinical Safety Europe; Drug Metabolism
and Pharmacokinetics; Toxicology/Pathology United States; Preclinical
Safety United States; and Global Preclinical Safety. In these positions, he
contributed to the registration of more than 45 marketed drug products and
the preparation of several hundred investigational new drugs (INDs). He
has vast experience in the areas of drug metabolism and disposition, toxicology/
pathology, genetic toxicology, pharmacokinetics/toxicokinetics,
and all aspects of investigative toxicology. He is well grounded in biochemistry,
cell biology, molecular biology, and pharmacology with the ability to
integrate data from the different preclinical disciplines to enable translation
to determine the clinical relevance of the findings. He is very familiar with
global drug registration requirements and working on global projects.
He has authored more than 80 scientific publications, has lectured
in toxicology at the University of Basel for more than 30 years, and is a
past president of the European Society of Biochemical Pharmacology
and the Swiss Society of Toxicology. He was a member of the PhRMA/IQ
Preclinical Leadership (DruSafe) Committee for 16 years, a member of the
advisory board of the PSTC Biomarker consortium, and a member of the
expert working group for revision of the ICH S2 guidance on genotoxicity
testing and the PhRMA expert group on genotoxic impurities.
