Did you miss our free Symposium on novel γδ-T cell-directed treatments for cancer?

November 17, 2021 by The Antibody Society


“Emerging cancer therapies leveraging gamma-delta effector T cells”

Hosted by The Antibody Society and co-organized with LAVA Therapeutics.

Empowering the potent and specific anti-tumor activities of γδ-T cells is an emerging and highly exciting approach in the fight against cancer. Two distinct therapeutic approaches are getting particular attention; the first is aimed at tumor-targeted activation using bispecific antibodies or γδ-CART cells, the second involves adoptive transfer or in vivo activation of γδ-T cells. During this symposium you will hear from key opinion leaders about the most recent developments for novel γδ-T cell-directed treatments for cancer, including a panel discussion on key opportunities and perspectives.

Held Monday November 29, 2021, the recorded event is available On Demand!

A panel discussion includes:

· Prof. James Allison, MD Anderson, Houston, TX
· Prof. Padmanee Sharma, MD Anderson, Houston TX
· Prof. Daniel Olive, Imcheck and Aix-Marseille Université, Marseille, FR
· Prof. Jürgen Kuball, University Medical Center, Utrecht, NL
· Dr. Michael Koslowski, GammaDelta Therapeutics, London, UK
· Prof. Hans van der Vliet, LAVA Therapeutics and Amsterdam UMC, Utrecht, NL

Anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody therapeutics Ronapreve and Regkirona approved in the EU

November 15, 2021 by Janice Reichert

On November 11, 2021, the European Medicines Agency’s human medicines committee recommended authorizing anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody therapeutics Ronapreve (casirivimab/imdevimab) and Regkirona (regdanvimab) for COVID-19.

  • The Committee recommended authorizing Ronapreve for treating COVID-19 in adults and adolescents (from 12 years of age and weighing at least 40 kilograms) who do not require supplemental oxygen and who are at increased risk of their disease becoming severe. Ronapreve can also be used for preventing COVID-19 in people aged 12 years and older weighing at least 40 kilograms. The company that applied for authorization of Ronapreve was Roche Registration GmbH.
  • The Committee recommended authorizing Regkirona for treating adults with COVID-19 who do not require supplemental oxygen and who are also at increased risk of their disease becoming severe. The applicant for Regkirona was Celltrion Healthcare Hungary Kft.

On November 12, 2021, the European Commission approved both products.

Join us for ‘Developing a portfolio of first-in-class immune-oncology antibodies’

November 9, 2021 by Janice Reichert

Tuesday November 23, 2021 at 11am ET

What does it take to develop a portfolio of immune-oncology candidates? In this fireside chat, Dr. Tom Burt, Sofinnova Partners SAS, will discuss the strategies needed and the path to building a world-class immuno-oncology biotech, along with Dr. Martin Welschof and experts Drs. Christine Power and Björn Cochlovius. During the session, Dr. Welschof, CEO of BioInvent, a clinical-stage company based in Sweden that is developing immuno-modulatory antibodies for the treatment of cancer, and the panel will detail their experiences of the many facets that contribute to building an innovative clinical stage antibody enterprise, including antibody discovery, clinical development, partnership, manufacturing and finance.

Registration is open, and free of course!

About Career Shorts:

In this series, we talk to scientists and individuals working within the world of antibodies about the experiences that have shaped their careers and have got them to where they are today. Our goal by sharing their experiences and advice is to empower the next generation of scientists and leaders working in this field and beyond to make confident and empowered decisions.

 

About Charlotte:

Prof Charlotte Deane ( http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/~deane/ ) leads the Oxford Protein Informatics group, a research group of over 25 people working on diverse problems across protein structure, immunoinformatics, interaction networks and small molecule drug discovery. She is also Deputy Executive Chair of the Engineering and Physical Sciences and Council and the Covid-19 Response Director for UK Research and Innovation.
