11th Tumor Models Boston The Westin Boston Seaport District, Boston

Over the last 12 months, we have seen many combination therapies enter Phase I and II trials with both successes and challenges, particularly in solid tumors. The FDA Modernization Act 2.0 passing has also steered biopharma away from animal models, empowering the preclinical and translational tumor models’ space to continue innovating and decrease the translational gap into the clinic.

At the 11th Annual Tumor Models Boston Summit, you will gain practical insights into the latest updates through 25+ case studies across 2 dedicated tracks. Join us to learn from and meet pioneers in preclinical and translational targeted, combination oncology to advance your candidates to patients with optimized translatability, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness!
