Peptide Therapeutics

By 2018, the global Peptide Therapeutics market is expected to reach over $25 billion. This dramatic market increase is driven by both growing incidences of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, and technological enhancements in peptide synthesis that include high-throughput approaches. Conjugation technologies are also contributing to the growth of peptide therapeutics, and leading to innovative approaches to designing safe and effective therapies.

This meeting will explore the burgeoning world of Peptide Therapeutics and how peptides are being engineered to penetrate tumors and conquer unmet medical needs. Improving peptide properties, such as stability and half-life, will also be discussed along with innovating routes of administration. Case studies will be presented that illustrate the progress made in developing efficacious peptide therapeutics, while leaders in the field point the way to the future for these promising drugs.
