With over 20 CGTs projected to be approved by 2025, it’s clear that there are huge commercial and medical opportunities for precision medicine. But despite this unprecedented growth, unstable infrastructure, lack of standardization and novel scientific nuance means that there is still no industry blueprint for successful commercialization. To realize this potential, precision medicine trailblazers must share lessons of launch success and overcome pain points to allow pharma to reinforce frameworks across manufacturing, market access and reimbursement to build infallible launch strategies across the board. Commercialization networks must go even further, transforming our healthcare system to guarantee scalable and sustainable growth. Don’t get left behind. Join us at Reuters Events: Cell and Gene Therapy USA where we have leaders from industry front runners to share their successes and pitfalls. With 30+ speakers, 5 case-studies and over 1500+ fellow CGT attendees - we will pioneer a new gold standard for commercialization, readying the world for CGT as a frontline treatment.

From uncovering the effects and production of TGF-β in immune, tumor and stromal cells to exploring predictive and pharmacodynamic TGF-β biomarkers for patient identification and assessing the clinical challenges that led to recent clinical failures, the 3rd TGF-β for Immuno-Oncology Drug Development Summit is your one-stop-shop dedicated to harnessing you with the knowledge to unlock the potential of successfully targeting TGF-β. Tailored with 18+ senior leaders, the 2023 meeting will be taking place in-person for the first time - don't miss your chance to be in the room for your comprehensive guide on TGF-β in immuno-oncology! Whether you are new to this field or a seasoned expert, this meeting will provide you with the must-know takeaways from the basic biology to biomarkers to clinical trial design to overcome the clinical setbacks and produce a blockbuster TGF-β therapeutic.

Allogeneic approaches are deemed the future of cell therapy due to their potential to reduce costs, increase accessibility and enhance availability. However as clinical readouts emerge, challenges associated with limited durability, solid tumour targeting and therapy immunogenicity are hindering their efficacies. The Allogeneic Cell Therapies Summit Europe is returning in January to capture the clinical advances of European drug developers whilst addressing the specific challenges they face in development. These include European regulatory affairs, donor selection, scalable manufacturing and therapy persistence. With continued investment and growth in the allogeneic space, join European leaders from Gadeta, Antion Biosciences, TC BioPharm, and many more, as well as the US leaders undertaking European trials. This includes Atara Bio and Adicet Bio, as they progress development of multiple cell types to produce the next-generation of safe, effective and accessible cell therapies in Europe.

As cell & gene therapy and genomic medicine pipeline continues to mature, process development for viral vector is becoming critical for drug developers for the next phase, to deliver a quality, transformative cure to patients with affordability. The recent investments such as Novartis-Samsung Biologics $81m contract for viral vector manufacturing, Resilience raising $625m towards biomanufacturing capabilities including stable cell lines for viral vector production pave the foundation for scientific and technology innovations. With better understanding of these novel nanoparticles, developability and cell line development, the ability to optimize AAV, LV formulation and define robust CQAs are critical to drug developers’ ability to increase scalability with efficiency, reduce cost of goods and most importantly, ensure product quality control for patients.

The 5th Annual CRISPR AgBio Congress will unite research heads, molecular biologists, regulatory experts, and product developers who are involved in the journey from early R&D through to creating a marketable product. Perspectives will be shared from large Ag companies, innovative AgBiotechs, key academic groups, regulatory bodies, and independent institutions working to translate cutting-edge CRISPR technology into a tangible product.

#CGTI 2023 will highlight the manufacturing challenges facing Cell & Gene Therapy, bringing clear insights and industry best practices from renowned sector leaders. Achieve a deeper understanding of the many manufacturing and industrialization burdens unique to carrying durable and curative therapies to needy patients.

The Third International Summit on Human Genome Editing will take place on 6-8 March 2023 at the Francis Crick Institute, London UK. Building on previous events held in Washington, D.C. (2015) and Hong Kong (2018), this Summit will continue the important dialogue around human genome editing. It will facilitate a global discussion on somatic and germline genome editing, including developments in clinical trials and genome editing tools such as CRISPR/Cas9. Earlier this year a three-part series of online events Looking Ahead to the Third Human Genome Editing Summit discussed some of the key topics of the meeting. The three-day summit is being organized by the Royal Society, the UK Academy of Medical Sciences, the US National Academies of Sciences and Medicine and The World Academy of Sciences.

For almost 3 decades, the Molecular & Precision Med TRI-CON has served as the leading international meeting place for the diagnostics and precision medicine community. As we celebrate the 30th Anniversary and look forward to in-person networking, Cambridge Healthtech Institute once again takes the leadership role of bringing together the life science community at the TRI-CON 2023. Join thousands of international thought leaders to discuss the latest research, technologies, innovation and business models in implementing precision medicine, biomarkers and companion diagnostics, genomic medicine, and precision health; innovation and market access strategies for at-home diagnostics, point-of-care testing and molecular diagnostics for infectious diseases; liquid biopsy and advanced diagnostics for precision oncology, including Multi-Cancer Early Detection and Minimal Residual Disease testing; and emerging technologies for spatial biology and single-cell multiomics. The new track on Digital Medicine reflects the future of precision medicine and adds coverage of artificial intelligence, digital diagnostics and digital biomarkers, digital pathology, sensors and wearables. Join us in sunny San Diego for the in-person networking you’ve come to expect from the TRI-CON and special 30th Anniversary keynotes. Don’t miss a minute of the cutting-edge 10-track scientific program with convenient on-demand viewing.

The Bioprocessing Summit Europe brings together 500+ bioproduction, analytical and formulation professionals to advance the manufacture, quality and control of biological and genetic therapies. This 3-day, 10 track meeting has quickly become a premier meeting in the European bioprocessing calendar and is regarded by many as “the fastest growing bioprocessing meeting in Europe” following record growth in 2022 – 350 to 500+ attendees - and a sold out Exhibit Hall. We look forward to seeing you in Barcelona, or online, 14-16 March 2023, with expanded content on cell and gene therapy CMC and manufacturing, educational training seminars and a vastly bigger Exhibit Hall.

This meeting will bring together research that encompasses basic and translational virology. We envision this meeting showcasing the ubiquity of viruses while highlighting commonalities among researchers, from technology through a standard goal of understanding how viruses behave and adapt and how this may be exploited for prediction of the next outbreak or leveraged for therapeutic development. The scientific response to SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 continues to showcase how science has progressed, as the rapidity of basic and translational research has been second to none, while also revealing our weaknesses as a population. This meeting is both a celebration of how far virology has come and a forecast of what is next and the inroads to get us there. Our topics will include: 1) Viruses within: defining the virome; interaction with the microbiome; endogenous retroviruses in health and disease; tools and technologies 2) Viral pathogens: evolution, genomics, spread, prediction, and pandemic preparedness of emerging and re-emerging viruses 3) Virus-host interaction: immunology, genetics, and host factors 4) Viruses as therapeutics: diagnostics, phage therapy, viral vectors, and disease therapy 5) Targeting viruses: antivirals, vaccines, antibodies: lessons from the past; successes versus failures
