Unmissable Event Highlights

Advancing the Hottest Biomarkers & IVD Platforms

Tap into the latest novel endpoint data spanning MRD, ctDNA and digital pathology and observe how global precision medicine partnerships are fuelling access to earlier detection, improved selection and monitoring impact with BIVDA, The Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and Johnson & Johnson

Optimizing Biomarker Operation & Translational Studies

Explore dynamic tumour profiling, gene signatures, functional, ligand binding and genomic assays, alongside the critical biomarker operations and pre-analytics workflows needed to fuel biomarker strategies with GSK, Moderna, Corbus Pharmaceuticals and Step Pharma

Fuelling Precision Medicine Beyond Oncology

Uncover precision medicine applications in neurologic, chronic and rare diseases with gene panels, digital and multiplex biomarkers for earlier detection, improved stratification, and enhanced patient access to targeted therapies with Moderna and Avacta Therapeutics

Navigating IVDR Compliance For Streamlined Rx-Dx Approvals

Plan for early IVDR compliance and correct regulatory filing with insights from regional competent and notified bodies to unlock timely and equitable access, not least in the wake of the COMBINE Pilot with Paul-Ehrlich-Institut, Bayer, Sanofi and TÜV Rheinland

Strengthening the Roadmap from Brench-to-Bedside

Ensure day-one readiness with improved knowledge of knowledge of HTAs, pricing, the use of real-world data and HCP adoption to overcome barriers in precision medicine access with AbbVie, UCB and the University of Glasgow

Divide & Conquer

With ever-growing Rx-Dx partnerships, policy evolution and precision medicine access initiatives we have meticulously researched with subject matter experts to identify the key challenges facing the community across indications, biomarkers, biopsy types, testing technologies and drug modalities.

By splitting into 3 end-to-end tracks (Biomarker Discovery & Translation, Clinical & CDx Development & Rx-Dx Commercialisation & Adoption), our speakers have tailored their presentations to dive into specific challenges for those stages of development.

By sending different members of the team across the drug pipeline, you can be sure you’ve left no stone unturned and have a team inspired with actionable takeaways to apply to their work.
