[Statlist] BBS Webinar: "CAR-T cell therapy webinar" October 4 - 5, 2023

[Blatna, Bibiana]

Dear BBS colleagues,


Please see below the links to 1st announcement and registration for the Basel Biometric Society (BBS) webinar on the

"Pre-approval and Post-approval Challenges in the Clinical Development and Reimbursement of CAR-T Cell Therapies" which is free and will take place virtually on

Wednesday, Oct 4, 2023 and Thursday, Oct 5, from 15:00-17:00 CET on both days.



1st Announcement:  LINK<https://baselbiometrics.github.io/home/docs/upcoming/20231004/agenda.pdf>

REGISTRATION: LINK<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/17xP-k8lVxfUTwdhQrSNR_tg391r5WM5Cc6CXElYH_Ic/viewform?edit_requested=true>



As highlighted in the announcement, in light of the progress in cell therapy development, innovative development strategies needs to be explored to accelerate development of the next generation of cell therapy products. On top of the crucial manufactory and logistical challenges, clinical development of CAR-Ts is facing unique statistical questions leading to authorization which need to be resolved for delivering the full treatment effect. Additionally, health care systems and payers face challenges associated with pricing and reimbursement that has resulted in the need for long-term registry studies designed to optimize treatment as well as provide a basis for outcomes-based agreements.


A 2nd announcement along with names of speakers / panelists and titles of the talks is expected to come out in early August, and for persons who register, you will receive the final agenda along with a link to the webinar shortly before it takes place.

Please make sure to enter the dates/times in your individual calendars, and if you have any problems registering or have any questions, please do not hesitate to let Fred Sorenson fred.sorenson at xcenda.com<mailto:fred.sorenson at xcenda.com> or one of the other organizers below know.
