New Topics Included:
CAR-T Applications in Autoimmunity
Expanding clinical access and pursuing a huge new population pool by harnessing CAR-T or CAR-Treg therapy to treat autoimmunity. Turbocharging durable efficacies, reviewing safety considerations, detecting surrogate biomarkers, and evaluating indications to maximise clinical outcome with Cabaletta Bio, Kyverna Therapeutics, AstraZeneca, Novartis, and Quell Therapeutics.
Non-Viral Engineering
Reviewing engineering efficiencies of non-viral methods, such as CRISPR, electroporation, LNP, and TALEN, and harnessing these novel approaches to armour cells against the TME, decrease vein-to-vein times, and cut costs of production with Cellectis, Genome Frontier Therapeutics, Anocca, Arsenal Bio, and T-CURX.
Point of Care Manufacturing
Reinventing turnaround times, cost of goods, and accessibility through a decentralised manufacturing model approach with pioneers, Tigen Pharma. This topic discussed site onboarding and regulatory considerations to understand how you can implement this novel system.
Discovery of New Clinical Data from Next Gen Programs!
Exploration of clinical updates and biomarker data from trials demonstrating durable efficacies across solid tumours (with Franco Locatelli and Immatics), allogeneic approaches (Cellectis, Caribou Bio), and autoimmune indications (Kyverna Therapeutics, ImmPACT Bio).
