Tumour Models

Meeting - United Kingdom

Are improved tumour models the key for better clinical outcomes for cancer patients?

The answer is a resounding yes. Drug developers all agree on the importance of looking critically at the current spectrum of models in order to achieve more predictive results faster. Optimising your current tumour models and exploring practical alternatives can lead to models that are significantly more representative of clinical outcomes, saving you precious time and money in the process.

Designed alongside experts from AstraZeneca, Eisai, Roche, MedImmune,Genentech and others, Tumour Models will arm you with the practical knowledge needed to devise more effective tumour models, ultimately leading to better decision making moving into the clinic. The agenda has been created specifically to help the industry optimise current tumour models, seek alternative solutions to common challenges and use tumour models to better predict drug efficacy. With presentations from Bayer, Sanofi, Roche and Actelion, this is too big an opportunity to miss.

Who should attend?

Drug developers who are looking to optimise current tumour models and explore practical alternatives to ensure the effective translation of preclinical data into a clinical setting

Academics and researchers looking to learn more about the most up to date tumour models, together with novel imaging techniques and alternate animal systems. It's also a great opportunity to look for collaborations and funding
