About

Pharmacology-led consulting — helping Biotechnology and Pharmaceutical Industry teams make data-driven decisions in oncology drug discovery and translational medicine.

About PathForward Pharmacology

PathForward Pharmacology is led by Dr. Hui Qin Wang, an accomplished preclinical pharmacologist with over 20 years of specialized experience in oncology drug discovery and translational drug development.


Our Expertise

Dr. Wang specializes in delivering high-quality, comprehensive in vivo data packages that empower R&D leaders to make confident, data-driven go/no-go decisions and advance the most promising therapeutic candidates.

  • Proven leadership in building translational animal models, including CDX, PDX, syngeneic, GEMM, and humanized mice.
  • Strategic design of study protocols to address critical questions around exposure, target modulation, and efficacy.
  • Broad experience across therapeutic modalities, including small molecules, biologics, antibody-drug conjugates, and immune cell engagers.
  • Integration of biomarker strategies into pharmacodynamic and efficacy studies to inform patient selection and in vivo target validation.
  • End-to-end oncology drug development expertise — from target identification and lead optimization to clinical proof-of-concept.

What sets her apart is her ability to translate complex pharmacology into actionable strategies, align cross-functional teams, and drive clarity in high-stakes decision-making.


Our Philosophy

At PathForward Pharmacology, we believe that high-quality data packages from well-designed studies are essential to advancing projects and meeting IND filing requirements.

By integrating robust pharmacology data with rigorous statistical analysis across multiple models, we enable project teams to move programs forward with clarity and confidence.
