CTC and Immuneed present a seminar: "Manage risk and build value in early clinical development"

Registration is officially open for the seminar: "Manage risk and build value in early clinical development – A unique approach to integrate preclinical and clinical research". First out is Lund, 12th March.

In a close partnership, Immuneed and CTC Clinical Trial Consultants AB offer a total solution for the preclinical and clinical characterisation of a drug. By using a unique approach, we help manage risk and build value in early clinical development. Join our seminar "Manage risk and build value in early clinical development" and learn more about the preclinical human model.

During this spring, CTC and Immuneed will visit Lund, Umeå and Gothenburg. First out is Lund on the 12th of March. 

Moderator is Bengt Dahlström, Ph.D., Assoc. Professor, CSO and Chairman of the Board at CTC Clinical Trial Consultants AB.

Agenda

08:15 Registration opens

08:30 From pre-clinical progress to clinical failure: is there a need for new models?

A poor success rate in clinical trials undermines the validity of the traditional pre-clinical models. Improving the current models and implementing more relevant human based assays is needed for pre-clinical data to become more clinically significant.

Justyna Leja Jarblad, COO, Immuneed AB

09:30 First-in-Human studies, where safety comes first

Solid and relevant pre-clinical data enable a profound risk mitigation strategy to minimise the risk of first-infusion reactions in your FIH study where the safety and wellbeing of the participating subjects are top priority. 

Anders Millerhovf, CEO, CTC Clinical Trial Consultants AB

10: 00 The whole blood loop system, a new tool for advanced ex-vivo characterization

Pre-clinical characterization of biotherapeutics in physiologically relevant models prior to clinical studies is a key for better understanding of the function and safety risks of candidate drugs and to increase the likelihood of future clinical success.

Erika Fletcher, Head of Research, Immuneed AB

10:30 Coffee break

10:45 Early Proof-of-Concept, build value in your clinical trial

The combined expertise offered by CTC and Immuneed will support you in the design and conduct of your clinical trials. Early effect data may contribute to a significant increase in product value prior to Phase II.

Fredrik Hansson, Director Biometrics, CTC Clinical Trial Consultants AB
