  • The successful candidate will contribute to the design, execution, and interpretation of translational biomarker and mechanism of action (MOA) studies to support the development and regulatory approval of novel therapeutics as they transition from late discovery into first in human clinical trials and beyond.
  • In this position, you will utilize your expertise in pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and biomarker discovery to guide drug development and biomarker strategies, optimize dosing regimens, and ensure the safety and efficacy of investigational drugs.
  • You will also contribute to translational activities aimed at maximizing the potential of BESREMI, PharmaEssentia’s marketed drug for the treatment of myeloproliferative neoplasms.
  • These efforts include indication expansion, novel combinations, and refining / improving biomarker approaches to guide dosing and patient selection.
  • Additionally, you will provide scientific leadership, mentorship, and cross-functional collaboration within the Translational Sciences team and across other departments.

The Company :

  • We believe in the potential to improve both the health and quality of life for patients with limited options today through the combination of rigorous research and innovative thinking.
  • Founded in 2003 by a team of Taiwanese American executives and renowned scientists from U.S. biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, today we are listed on the Taipei Exchange (TPEx :

  • 6446) and are expanding our global presence with operations in the U.S., Japan, China and Korea, along with a world-class biologics production facility in Taichung.
  • Our new research center, PharmaEssentia Innovation Research Center (PIRC), will build upon our invention and discovery-based innovation efforts originally established in Taiwan that led to a transformative advancement for treating polycythemia vera (one of the myeloid proliferative neoplasms).
  • At PIRC, we aim to expand our current expertise in related therapeutic areas and identify novel therapeutic approaches in early to mid-stage discovery and development.
  • Data scientists will leverage artificial intelligence and machine learning to inform new target and indication selection.
  • The company is also recruiting for talented scientists who have deep knowledge in immunology, translational science, bioinformatics and biologics platforms to develop novel drugs leveraging disease-driving biology, novel technology in protein engineering, antibody discovery and new modalities.
  • Summary of Key Responsibilities :

  • Study Design and Execution : Lead the design, planning, and execution of translational studies in indication-relevant animal models and primary human cellular and tissue systems to identify and validate biomarkers and explore drug candidate mechanism of action.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure alignment with discovery and development goals as well as regulatory requirements.
  • Further Exploration of BESREMi :

  • Collaborate with clinical development team to further explore the potential of BESREMi in MPN and other areas of Oncology.
  • Conduct translational studies internally and be involved in investigator-initiated trials (IITs) or company sponsored clinical trials to maximize the clinical potential of BESREMi.
  • Data Analysis and Interpretation :

  • Oversee the analysis, interpretation, and reporting of in vitro and in vivo pharmacology / translational biomarker data, including pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters, exposure-response relationships, and safety / tolerability profiles.
  • Provide scientific insights to inform decision-making and optimize study outcomes.
  • Drug Development Strategy :

  • Contribute to the development and implementation of clinical pharmacology strategies to support the progression of investigational drugs through all phases of clinical development.
  • Generate scientific rationale for dose selection, formulation optimization, and therapeutic target validation.
  • Regulatory Interaction :

  • Address inquiries and provide scientific justifications for study designs, endpoints, and data analyses.
  • Scientific Leadership :

  • Serve as a subject matter expert in translational biomarkers, target biology and candidate therapeutic mechanism of action, providing guidance and mentorship to junior scientists, clinicians, and project teams.
  • Contribute to the scientific literature through publications, presentations, and participation in professional conferences and working groups.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration :

  • Collaborate closely with colleagues in data sciences, biologics, immunology / pharmacology, clinical development, and regulatory affairs to integrate translational biomarker and mechanism of action insights into overall drug development strategies.
  • Foster a culture of scientific excellence, innovation, and collaboration.
