Predicting Drug-Induced Cardiotoxicity

 Conference - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Cambridge Healthtech Institute’s fifth annual conference on Predicting Drug-Induced Cardiotoxicity elaborates on the mechanisms underlying cardiotoxicity, the use of stem cells, ion-channel assays, computational tools and models for early cardiac safety assessments and also delve into details for screening biological drugs, like monoclonal antibodies, antibody drug conjugates, fusion proteins and others. The pre-conference courses related to cardiac safety will also offer more in-depth education and networking opportunities with experts in the field. The CRO panel will include scientific experts from Contract Research Organizations, who will share their views on the technologies and trends that will impact cardiac safety testing going forward.

Chairperson: Gary Gintant, Ph.D., Senior Group Leader, Department of Integrative Pharmacology, Global Pharmaceutical Research & Development, Abbott Laboratories
