A broad range of unmet needs remains in the immuno-oncology space

Pharmaceutical Technology

The most widely utilised IO class is immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), which work by blocking the inhibitory interactions between tumour cells and T-cells, facilitating an anti-tumour immune response. There are more than 20 marketed ICIs with approvals across a very wide spectrum of solid tumour indications.
