OVERVIEW

2025 Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Spring Scientific: Cellular Therapy for Solid Tumors is organized by Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) and will be held from Mar 12 - 14, 2025 at Rancho Bernardo Inn, San Diego, California, United States of America.

Description:
The SITC Spring Scientific, Cellular Therapy for Solid Tumors, will address the recent advances in adoptive cellular therapy for solid tumors and rate-limiting challenges that impede bringing these novel therapies to patients in need. The program will feature in-depth discussions of the latest scientific insights and advances in the field and unique opportunities and unanswered questions in the areas of target antigen selection, product design, and therapeutic efficacy and safety.

SITC will bring the brightest minds and the next generation of leaders together to explore the more promising science and develop novel opportunities to address these challenges.
