CAR-T Congress EU 2019

Despite the huge successes there are still a number of hurdles to overcome before CAR-T can be effective in mainstream oncology beyond haematological malignancies. The European CAR-T Congress’ mission is to address the opportunities and challenges that presently face the CAR-T field, to maximise the potential of this ground-breaking therapy.Sessions include:Solid tumour targeting: overcoming the tumour microenvironmentMulti-specific & dual targeting CARsProcess development, scalability & automationAllogeneic vs Autologous: the potential of off-the-shelf therapiesPatient access, implementation & regulatory challengesAdvances in gene engineeringSafety and toxicity
