What challenges and opportunities in solid tumour CAR-T/TCR-T development, manufacturing scalability, and European regulatory and commercial strategy will be addressed at the summit?

The summit provides a cross-functional, end-to-end view of the key scientific, manufacturing, and regulatory drivers shaping next-generation cell therapy in Europe. Scientific sessions explore the major R&D and translational challenges in solid tumours, including multi-targeting designs, armoured constructs, trafficking enhancement, durability, resistance to the tumour microenvironment, and lessons learned from early-phase clinical programs.

Manufacturing and CMC-focused discussions examine scale-up and scale-out constraints, vector supply, automation, closed and digitalised manufacturing systems, allogeneic platform efficiencies, and analytical development, QC and comparability strategies required for robust and cost-effective production.

Regulatory and commercial sessions highlight the evolving European ATMP regulatory landscape, including expectations for potency assays, gene-editing considerations, long-term follow-up, comparability, and clinical trial design. These sessions also address pathways to commercial readiness, pricing and reimbursement challenges, and successful launch strategies for CAR-T, TCR-T, and next-generation engineered cell therapies across the EU.
