Description
Studying the pharmacological effects of drugs injected into the human eye is difficult because traditional sampling methods are invasive. Therefore, the Seeker desires a computational model that accurately simulates the systems pharmacology of an administered drug. This is a Reduction to Practice Challenge that requires written documentation, output from the proposed algorithm, and submission of the source code and/or an executable for validation, if requested by the Seeker.
Novartis is launching a Challenge for a recently introduced drug in the market that is linked with post-marketing adverse event case reports following administration of the drug in the human eye. A small number of patients experienced adverse events termed as “retinal vasculitis” and/or “retinal vascular occlusion” that may result in severe vision loss and/or decreased visual acuity. To understand these phenomena, the Seeker desires a systems pharmacology model that takes into account interactions between the drug, its target, and the ocular inflammatory process
