Antibodies for Cancer Therapy: Exploiting Successful Strategies
he field of antibodies directed against cancer is burgeoning and this is
a huge growth area due to the success of drugs already on the market.
There still remain a number of challenges that include reducing
immunogenicity, improving the targeting in solid tumors, and increasing
the ability to kill cancer cells. The pre-clinical and clinical results
of recent new constructs will be shared, and the changes in regulation
of antibodies will be reviewed. The latest new ...

Biophysical & Biochemical Characterization of Biotherapeutics
Many recent pharmaceutical advances are based on detailed knowledge and characterization of the underlying proteins involved. Many companies are working to meet those demands through new tools, technologies, and assays. More important than the tools themselves is the hard work of applying the technologies appropriately to each situation and evolving a true analytical strategy...

Difficult to Express Proteins
Membrane proteins, ion channels, toxic or insoluble proteins, low abundance protein complexes, vaccines and other “finicky” proteins often are the best choices for therapeutics, yet their successful expression is a minefield of failures and challenges. This conference will present innovative and imaginative methods to make those difficult to express proteins more cooperative and to increase yield and performance...
