Biopharma services company Allucent has announced that it has named Katy Moore to lead a team of pharmacometricians to create custom modeling and simulation approaches for clinical trial designs.
Moore’s official title will be president of clinical pharmacology, modeling and simulation (CPMS).
Moore has more than 25 years of experience in the pharma industry, holding senior positions at ViiV Healthcare and GSK. She worked at the latter company for 19 years.
At ViiV Healthcare, she served as the global head of clinical pharmacology. She also founded and co-chaired the ViiV Healthcare Protocol Review Forum for Phase 1 to Phase 2a studies and launched an internship program.

“Katy brings a breadth and depth of experience that will have immense value for our team and our partners,” said Dr. Mark A. Goldberg, chairman and CEO of Allucent, in a press release. “Her expertise is of particular importance at this time when data-backed, biologically plausible modeling and simulation approaches can help avoid costly trials and support successful regulatory applications.”
