?Advanced therapy Medicinal Products?, first defined in EU Directive 2003/63/EC, cover gene, somatic cell and human tissue-engineered products. In response to scientific progress a regulatory basis has been developed in the EU, including, for the first time, tissue-engineered products. A dedicated review group, the Committee for Advanced Therapies (CAT) has been instituted at the European...

Cell death suppression is extremely relevant for tumor development, progression, and resistance to therapy. The mechanisms of cell death and cell survival are complex and involve much more than previously thought (apoptosis and necrosis) with cross-talk and other programmed processes such as autophagy, post-mitotic death, or entosis. In addition, the tumor microenvironment has a great...

Objectives: Describe tools, requirements and approaches used to develop a comprehensive Quality Management Program Address key technical and quality issues in the processing, storage, thawing and infusion of cellular therapy products. Evaluate a variety of real life situations and scenarios including topics such as adverse reactions, disaster planning and staffing, determine appropriate...

The iSBTc Annual Meeting allows for the exchange of the most cutting edge preclinical and clinical data on the use of biological therapies in cancer. Sessions on clinical trial design, navigating the regulatory issues, as well as the most current concepts on biologic and immunotherapeutic approaches will occur, allowing investigators to share and build on their data. iSBTc’s strength lies in its...

This workshop is designed to help you: Recognize tasks and skills associated with different phases of treatment; Comprehend guidelines (steps, indications & contraindications) for possible single-session therapies; and Study numerous single-session interventions and consider application of brief therapy techniques to some of your own clinical cases....

The 5th Annual Clinical Update on Heart Failure and Arrhythmias conference is designed for cardiologists, primary care physicians, nurses, and other health care professionals with an interest in heart failure and arrhythmia therapy. The management of heart failure and arrhythmias continues to evolve at a rapid rate. Medical therapy continues to progress and device therapy is...

As the incidence of melanoma continues to rise rapidly in the U.S. and around the world, the need to educate clinicians on the disease also increases. During this course nationally recognized experts will present information on prevention, risk assessment, early detection, genetic factors, and current and future treatment choices for melanoma patients. Issues concerning surgical management,...

It is now widely recognized that the immune microenvironment of a tumor provides critical support in determining its progression versus dormancy or destruction. To gain immune benefits the tumor must evolve mechanisms of immune escape. Study of this crucial process requires cross-fertilization between molecular cell biologists and tumor immunologists who do not tend to interact. This problem is...

As the incidence of melanoma continues to rise rapidly in the United States and around the world, the need to educate clinicians from various specialties on the disease also increases. During this course nationally recognized experts will present information on prevention, risk assessment, early detection, genetic factors, and current and future treatment choices for melanoma patients. Issues...
