Drug development: describes the process of developing a new drug that energetically targets a specific weakness in a cell. The process consist of bringing a new pharmaceutical drug to the market once a lead compound has been identified through the process of drug discovery.
With annual sales exceeding $145 billion, growth of biologic therapeutics is outpacing that of small-molecule drugs, and the development, manufacture, and delivery of biologics presents very...
Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) has historically been very effective for exacting difficult chiral separations, with an unmatched power in terms of enabling highly efficient enantios...
Metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) refractory to secondary hormonal treatments such as enzalutamide or abiraterone acetate are the most lethal of prostate cancers. In thi...
Tumor mutational burden (TMB) is an emerging biomarker that correlates with response to immunotherapeutic agents, such as checkpoint inhibitors. Recent studies indicate that a high mutation l...
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common bone tumor in pediatric and adolescent/young adult patients. Over the past three decades, significant improvements in the survival rates or therapeutic ap...
Accumulation of structural variations (SVs) across the genome is a known trigger factor for oncogenesis. Structural mutations have been clearly implicated in a number of cancers, most notably...
Blockade of CTLA-4 and PD-1, members of the B7/CD28 family, have proven to be the most successful cancer immunotherapies to date. While the current therapeutic focus remains on B7/CD28 family...
Copy-number alterations and chromosomal translocations are widespread in cancer and frequently causing oncogenic mutations that drive tumorigenesis and therapy resistance. Despite their preva...
The Keynote Address will highlight eight actions that individuals can take to reduce their cancer risk. These recommendations span lifestyle modifications, cancer screening and molecular prev...
The introduction of robot-assisted surgical technology into urological practice, has introduced new horizons for reducing the morbidity and enhancing the efficacy of surgery. Open radical cys...
A subset of women with ovarian cancer will present with an apparently isolated adnexal mass. Many of these women will have early stage ovarian cancer with a relatively good prognosis. Unfortu...
CRISPR based gene editing has proven to be an incredibly powerful tool for studying functions of individual proteins, understanding the role of multi-gene pathways, and even knocking out prot...
First discovered as a genome-editing tool just seven years ago, CRISPR systems have already changed the face of basic research, allowing researchers to alter the DNA of hundreds of organisms...
