Dave Porubek

Dave Porubek is an Affiliate Instructor in the Department of Medicinal Chemistry at the University of Washington School of Pharmacy. He earned his PhD in Medicinal Chemistry (1984) and BA in Chemistry (1979) from Eastern Washington University. His research focuses on analytical methods for drug metabolism and drug targets in cancer drug development, particularly anti-cancer therapies. His recent publications highlight work on CYP17A1 and pharmacokinetics of SN2310, aligning with his expertise in drug regulation and oncology. He currently serves as a research consultant.

• Education: PhD (Medicinal Chemistry, University of Washington, 1984); BA (Chemistry, Eastern Washington University, 1979)

Research Interests: Porubek’s work spans drug metabolism, toxicology, and regulatory frameworks for cancer therapeutics. His contributions include methodologies for studying anti-cancer drug targets and pharmacokinetic profiling in clinical settings.

Publications: Recent studies on CYP17A1 and SN2310 pharmacokinetics reflect his specialization in drug metabolism and oncology. Both articles emphasize clinical applications and biochemical mechanisms.
