OVERVIEW

4th Annual Oncolytic Virotherapy (OV) Summit is organized by Hanson Wade and will be held from Dec 04 - 06, 2018 at Hilton Boston Back Bay, Boston, Massachusetts, United States of America.

As many oncolytic viruses progress through the clinical pipelines, drug developers need to ensure that their therapies are safe, efficacious and commercially viable. Make sure you stay ahead of the game and join Oncolytic Virotherapy Summit, where you will have an opportunity to pick the brains of 100 senior industry peers and tackle your challenges in discovery, clinical development, manufacturing and regulations of oncolytic virotherapy.

Successful Late-stage Clinical Development:
Connect with experts that have been through late-stage development of oncolytic viruses to understand the key challenges and lessons learned. Learn how to translate an academic, early-stage product into commercial therapeutics ready for large-scale clinical trials.

Improve Treatment Efficacy with Combination Therapies:
Maximize the potential for using oncolytic viruses in combination by discussing combinations with; adoptive cell therapy, DNA damage response drugs, current frontline cancer therapies and many more strategies for rational combinations to enhance the efficacy of treatments.

Ensure Commercial Scale Manufacturing:
With limited external expertise and expensive options to build in-house facilities, the industry needs to invest early to grow and develop commercial-grade GMP facilities. Experts will share with you their case studies, capabilities and future strategies to ensure the commercial viability of oncolytic viruses to meet patient demand.
