Position Summary:

The Translational Medicine physician should be a bridge/liaison between clinical development and other areas of the organization including research and portfolio planning, with the primary focus on clinical strategies, trial design and endpoint development, data collection and analysis to support optimal drawn on data from real world settings to optimize probability of success of clinical studies in medically and commercially viable markets This position will collaborate closely with the Research organization (immunology and translational research groups), to identify, implement/integrate biomarkers, filter/understand/apply preclinical and animal models into disease/target identification for healthy volunteer and early POC disease studies that help validate target signals in disease and thus to progress programs toward larger phase 2/3 clinical development, integrating blood and tissue biomarkers and clinical endpoints.

  • Design cross functional translational clinical development studies supporting and bridging preclinical and clinical development  of AnaptysBio’s inflammation and immuno-oncology programs
  • Develop guidelines for selection, validation, and prioritization of translational biomarkers, ensuring alignment with AnaptysBio’s product development strategies.
  • Work closely with external research collaborators and contractors (CROs) for preclinical and clinical translational efforts.
  • Explore biomarker identification/validation and interface with the discovery and development teams throughout the development process.
  • Represent development projects at management meetings as well to external stakeholders.
  • Work with Program Management to support program teams timelines and budgets
  • Participate in new target identification, including translational biology assessment of emerging biology within therapeutic areas of strategic interest to AnaptysBio 
  • Establish and maintain a network of external experts for molecular and biological target identification and validation
  • Participate in the design and execution of clinical studies leading to proof of concept.
  • Contribute to non-clinical and clinical study design, data generation and reporting, regulatory document preparation, regulatory interaction and submissions.
Requirements

Qualifications:

  • MD or PhD/MD physician with extensive experience in Inflammation and Immunology (i.e. 10+ years of relevant, direct experience in preclinical/clinical development up to Phase 2 clinical studies,)
  • Proven track record in the translational development of drug candidates to include drug treatment approaches.
  • Hands-on experience working closely with research biology group to help progress molecules through preclinical development into the clinic.
  • Ideally a “thought leader” regarding the immunology of immune disorders and numerous MOA/cell types involved
  • Solid working knowledge of pharmaceutical discovery and research.
  • Strong project management skills with the ability to deliver results on schedule in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
  • Prior experience of working across diverse therapeutic areas is highly desirable.
  • Proven track record of making major contributions to the discovery of one or more marketed or in-development medicines.

Company

AnaptysBio is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on delivering innovative immunology therapeutics. We are developing immune cell modulators, including two checkpoint agonists in clinical-stage development, for autoimmune and inflammatory disease: rosnilimab, our PD-1 agonist program in a Phase 2 trial for the treatment of moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis; and ANB032, our BTLA agonist program, currently in a Phase 2b trial for the treatment of moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. Our preclinical immune cell modulator portfolio includes ANB033, an anti-CD122 antagonist antibody for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. In addition, AnaptysBio has developed two cytokine antagonists available for out-licensing: imsidolimab, an anti-IL-36R antagonist, in Phase 3 for the treatment of generalized pustular psoriasis, or GPP, and etokimab, an anti-IL-33 antagonist for the treatment of respiratory disorders that is Phase 2/3 ready. AnaptysBio has also discovered multiple therapeutic antibodies licensed to GSK in a financial collaboration for immune-oncology, including an anti-PD-1 antagonist antibody (Jemperli (dostarlimab-gxly)), an anti-TIM-3 antagonist antibody (cobolimab, GSK4069889) and an anti-LAG-3 antagonist antibody (GSK4074386).

Our corporate vision is to transform patient health by delivering innovative immunology therapeutics. Find out more about us by following us on Twitter.
