Neuromuscular Drug Development (NMD) Summit 2019

Neuromuscular Drug Development (NMD) Summit is organized by Hanson Wade and will be held from Oct 23 - 25, 2019 at The Westin Boston Waterfront, Boston, Massachusetts, United States of America.

Description:
Now in its 2nd year and built with Biogen, Audentes and PTC Therapeutics, the industry-focused NMD Summit will overcome the challenges preventing neuromuscular drug developers bringing truly transformative therapeutics to market.

With an emphasis on ALS, SMA, DMD and other rare diseases, 18 expert speakers will share their insights through this comprehensive learning and networking forum, enabling you to:
• Explore the approaches being used to treat neuromuscular disorders including gene therapy, antisense oligonucleotide (ASOs) and small molecules
• Evaluate the success in the clinical landscape to determine where improvement is needed
• Discuss the translational challenges hindering drug developers working on different neuromuscular approaches and develop strategies to improve translation into the clinic

Following a number of neuromuscular approvals recently, the 2nd Annual NMD meeting will harness the excitement of the field whilst unraveling the complexities of developing safe and effective second-generation therapeutics.

Registering for NMD will help you to:
• Optimize the use of biomarkers and define clinically meaningful endpoints to improve patient stratification
• Widen your awareness of the exciting progress in the clinical landscape to benchmark yourself against your competitors
• Address the limited population size and develop strategies to overcome patient access leading to larger study groups
• Discover the advances in preclinical models and how best to navigate the limitations to improve predictability
• Discuss the regulatory issues surrounding rare disease drug development in order to improve standard of care

Join Biogen, Acceleron Pharma, Roche, Voyager and more at NMD this October - don’t miss this opportunity to unite with like-minded peers to overcome your roadblocks preventing you developing truly transformative neuromuscular treatments.

Time: 8:00 am to 4:00 pm

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
